ACCESS INTO THE HOLY OF HOLIES

The significance of the veil torn into two during the crucifixion of Jesus Christ...

The size and thickness of the veil makes the events occurring at the moment of Jesus’ death on the cross so much more momentous. 

“And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom” (Matthew 27:50-51a).

So, what do we make of this? What significance does this torn veil have for us today? 

Above all, the tearing of the veil at the moment of Jesus' death dramatically symbolized that His sacrifice, the shedding of His own blood, was a sufficient atonement for sins. 

It signified that now the way into the Holy of Holies was open for all people, for all time, both Jew and Gentile.

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

 It is by the extraordinary language from on high that we are able to bless and not to curse. Self or carnality does not accept such preposition. But if we must align with God’s will; His Word, we must resist the natural and ordinary talk lifestyle. A little practice can be of immense help here:

Righteousness is never impossible in our nation. We have many women of great virtue and decency in our city. Our police department is corrupt free. We foresee the next generation of non violence. Revival is already here, and it is starting with me. I behold the kingdom of heaven on earth.

 The will of God is taking place in my life. I overcome evil with good. My light is shining everyday. Nothing is impossible with me, because I can do all things... I subject demons and evil spirits under my God’s ordained authority.


I heal the sick, cast out demons and raise the dead. I pray as I ought to pray, by the interceding power of the Holy Spirit... I behold life, and its abundance and power...

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

Paul boldly told his listeners to imitate him just like he imitated Jesus. He proved his commitment of following the example of Christ at the point of the demise of a young man.

'Do not trouble yourselves, for his life is in him.’ What great example of faith declaration we must practice. This is what Isaiah meant when he declared his Messianic prophecy in Isaiah 61:3;

“To console those who mourn in Zion, to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified.”

That was exactly what Jesus did, and Paul emulated Him; the Church must never be an exception. We should never comply to the demonic pattern of horror where death is celebrated on TV and radio. Faith pleases God; we must always be determined to glorify Him by our faith conversation and action.

When Jesus heard of the sickness of Lazarus,
“…He said, ‘This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be, gloried through it." (Jn. 11:4) “Jesus said to her, 'Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God'?” (Jn.11:40).

Both God the Father and the Son are glorified when we exercise faith. Lazarus actually died, but because faith was at work; the appropriate utterance was made over the unhealthy and dead situation; it did not matter if Lazarus was dead for four days and was decomposing, he had to come back to life, and this act of confident speech in God glorified Him.

There is nothing greater in life Than for our lives’ faith expression to praise and honor God. Our ability to discover God’s purpose for our lives reminds us of the necessity to glorify God through the application of faith in all circumstances.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT

John the forerunner of the Christ clearly stated in
Mathew 3:11 “I indeed baptize you with the water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I … He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire."

I have noticed the sequence in the Holy Spirit's order of presenting Himself to us. First, we have Christ introduced in His conception and Birth, by the Holy Spirit and now we have Him being presented as the one who baptizes us with the Holy Spirit.

So the one whose arrival on the scene was by the Holy Spirit, He is the only qualified to introduce or intimate us into the Spirit's occupied life. Therefore, the way we relate with Jesus determines our union with the Holy Spirit.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – JOB 26:13 “By the Spirit He adorned the heavens; His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.”

This confirms that the origin of creation was only possible by the Holy Spirit. The devil was overthrown and totally out-smarted when God finally sent His begotten so to save humanity and restore us to our original status of dominion over His creation. The Spirit of God is our only source of strength and renewal.

Job 33:4 “The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life,” (Note my comment above 26:13).
Our earthly and eternal survival is guaranteed by the Holy Spirit. Our life, ministry and everything m can choke into perpetual mess without Him. Let’s remain alive in Him! Amen.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT

Judges 13:25 “And the Spirit of the Lord began to move upon him (Samson) at Mahaneh Dan between Zorah and Estaol.

Judges 14:5 “And the Spirit of the Lord came mightily upon him (Samson), and he tore the lion apart as one would have torn apart a young goat, though he had nothing in his hand…”

Judges 14:19 “Then the Spirit of the Lord came upon him (Samson) mightily, and he went down to Ashkelon and killed thirty of their (philistines) men …”

Judges 15:14 “… Then the Spirit of the Lord came mightily upon him (Samson); and the ropes that were on his arms became like flax that is burnt with fire, and his bonds broke loose from his hands…”

The Holy Spirit endued Samson with extraordinary strength to enable him perform incredibly. But Samson misappropriated God's favor and became selfish in his motives. God's plan was not fully perfected in his ministry.

You can do anything you want with God’s gift in your life. But one day you will be found guilty and accountable for all misdeeds.

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

“But rise and stand on your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you. “(Acts 26:16)

This is what was said to Paul when he was arrested by the Lord Jesus on his way to persecute the believers in Damascus. Before now, Paul’s life was victimized by his traditional Jewish background; he thought he was truly serving God.

But after the encounter with the Lord Jesus the story suddenly changed. His ministry became distinct because he sought to do the will of the Lord throughout his calling. When he was consecrated and set apart for God, he was on his own, but the One that called him never forsook him. So he did not lean on some one’s already-made ministry.
“...nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia, and returned again to Damascus. “(Gal. 1:17).

He was there for three years. Then he went to Peter in Jerusalem, but stayed with him for fifteen days only.

If we must make giant strides in ministry, even greater than Paul. one of the greatest apostle in history, (for with God nothing is virtually impossible) we must discover the mystery of seclusion and self imprisonment; denying ourselves of all manner of associations with men; keeping away from all popular activities or events that attract ordinary minds, becoming odd among peers. humbling oneself in fervent prayer and fasting.... until true identity and association is found with God.

Great Bible achievers, ranging from Noah, Moses, Elijah, Elisha, Hannah, David, Joseph, Daniel, Jeremiah, John the Baptist, Mary to Jesus and the apostles etc, were men and women who disregarded and despised manmade connections; but stood strictly committed their lives to God Almighty and by His Spirit’s anointing, excelled in ministry.

Our case in life and ministry is no exception. Putting so much confidence in men had caused many men and women. God’s own creation to slip off the path of purposeful living and made a shipwreck of the ministry of Christ in the Christian.

The One who saves; calls and ordains us into genuine ministry is God Himself through Christ Jesus by the power of the Holy Ghost. Why should we justify an ungodly approach of ministry orientations to Gods set standards’ May our faith never fail, as we seek to embrace the only alternative to active and effective Christ-like lifestyle and ministry by the power of the Holy Spirit’s anointing. AMEN!

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

(From Obscurity to Reality)

The role of the Holy Spirit in the ministry of every believer can never be toyed around. The more the church only pay lip service to the Person of the Spirit of God, the more fake power operatives encroach among well intended faithful ones.

What is the church doing building hospitals, universities, cathedrals and a host of other edifices (Mt 24:1,2), when all are expected to heal the sick, cast out demons, cleanse the lepers and raise the dead and generally advance God’s Kingdom by the power of the Holy Spirit? (Mt. 10: 1,7-8) Why should we be limiting God’s power in our midst by taking to failing and frustrating shortcuts concerning problems that constantly torment our people?

If the world settings had failed in providing the answers o these basic human necessities; why the continued imitation of limitations and setbacks; seeking solutions from the world’s governments whose wisdoms are continually turning into endless futility? (l Cor. 2:6) Why don’t we just humbly accept the words of Jesus our Lord and Saviour to receive power as the Holy Spirit becomes the preoccupation of our Christian faith and service’(Ac 1:8, Ps. 50).

The apostles set the first Christ-like example for us immediately they had an encounter with God by His Spirit in the name of Jesus on the day of Pentecost. Who could have doubted such divine abilities and guts?

Listen to what the contenders with the apostles noticed: Acts 4:13 “ Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus” .NKJV

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

 The Kingdom at Hand:
“And as ye go, preach, saying, the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
(Mt 10:7) And also: Mt. 3:2; 4:17; Lk. 9:2; 10:9

In other words, the kingdom is near or yet, the kingdom is already here. The activities that accompany kingdom enforcement express great exertion of power. That is, the very expression of its reality.
“Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast Out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.” (Mt.10:8)
And so the prayer point;

‘Oh Lord, Let me behold the very presence and glory of Your kingdom in my life and ministry so that I can do what is expected of me in the kingdom service in Jesus Name. Amen’

The Qualities of the Kingdom’s Heirs:
The king controls or takes charge of a kingdom. That is what we are in God’s kingdom arrangement.
“Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” “Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. “(Mt.5:3,5) “And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, blessed be ye poor: for yours Is the kingdom of God. “Lk.6:20).

And also: 37:1 1; Ro. 4:13
If a king does not know anything about his domain or his area of jurisdiction or his territorial dominion, such a king is likely to flout with legal power and definitely fail to dispense or exercise the appropriate leadership qualities expected of him.
In the kingdom of God’s dispensation, great leadership qualities are exhibited in the heirs’ humility and submissiveness to God’s instructions in the Bible. When we have assurance of self denial: seeking to do the will of God than our selfish motives, we stand to exert our heavenly ordained authority over all things.

So let us pray as follows:
‘Oh Lord, help mc to discover true humility and its blessing so that I can truly allow your grace to fully operate through me and for me to be suitable for the kingdom inheritance in Jesus’ Name. Amen’

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

Deborah was God’s appointed prophetess of the hour. It appeared that Barak was not capable. But the truth is, he was not purposeful enough for the task. Every one of us has an intended task to fulfill in life according to God’s eternal purpose. Each of us must discover His plan and remain resolutely focused on that plan until it is perfectly done.

Deborah agreed to go with Barak because she was the woman of the hour. That is not to say that Barak was neither relevant. Women are hereby challenged to raise their heads, shoulders and voices high to become instrumental to make extraordinary difference according to God's will in our time.

“Then Deborah said to Barak, ‘Up! For this is the day in which the LORD has delivered Sisera into your hand. Has not the LORD gone out before you?’ So Barak went down from Mount Tabor with ten thousand men following him. And the LORD routed Sisera and all his chariots and all his army with the edge of the sword before Barak; and Sisera alighted from his chariot and fled away on foot.” (Jg.4:14- 15).

Through the prophetic and courageous words of this woman of faith, Barak had an overwhelming victory over the enemy of God’s people. For further reading, consider the testimonies of these notable women of purpose in the Bible.
1. Ruth - The woman of resolved consistence (Ruth 1:16)
2. Hannah - The travailing and ideal mother of faith (l Sa 1:19,20)
3. Abigail- The wise and capable woman (1 Sa. 25:3)
4. Shunanmite- The sensitively hospitable woman (2 Ki. 4:8-10)
5. Esther - The committed self-sacrificing woman (Es. 4: 16)
6. Syrophenician- The woman of faith (Mt. 15:28)
7. Magdalene - The generous and transformed woman (Mk. 16:1,9)
8. Elisabeth -The woman of patience and humility (Lk. 1:43)
9. Mary - The woman of chastity and chosen of God (Lk. 1:30-38) 
10. Mary of Bethany- The woman of rare and focused choices (Lk. 10:42)
11. The Samaritan Woman Evangelist (Jn. 4:29)
12. Dorcas - The benevolent charity worker (Acts 9:36)
13. Lydia - The business and hospitable woman (Acts16:14, 15)

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

If the thousands of believers who troop into the various respective ministries were able to find out what God had purposed for them in life, and were ready to comply to God’s instructions, what a great multitude of profound, distinct and reliable stewards of purposeful ministry there shall be!

The ministers concerned should be bold enough to teach their congregations to discover God’s plan for their lives; and be prepared to let them find access to Him who personally calls, ordains and consecrates us individually into our various intended missionary fields; and this does not necessarily imply to serve God in an ecclesiastical setting as it is the campaign today.

Many are counting on their fellow men to hire them into the ministry; they want a monthly salary like it is done in the secular organizations Well, as the wise saying goes; “He who pays the piper, dictates the tune.” The minister becomes greatly loyal to their ‘superiors’ than to God. So when the monthly salary fails, they cry not to God, but to their employer!

I have heard a number of people murmur and worry because the church organization had treated them unfairly. One wonders when such workers will make the needed impact in the society as it is expected of them to do. It does not matter where you are located in ministry; you should succeed in discovering your God’s given potential and talents or giftedness so that you can perfectly fit into His eternal plan and purpose in life and calling even within a system (Dan 1:8).

One should never exhibit false loyalty just because of earthly benefits. “Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him.” (Jn.6:27).

Whenever men cling to man-made systems, they eventually get tired and consequently they are retired. If they had sought for food like our Master did;  “But He said to them, ‘I have food to eat of which you do not know.’
Jesus said to them, ‘My food is to do the will of him who sent Me, and to finish His work.”’(Jn. 4:32,34.).

DEVILISH TRANSLATION ERRORS

It is definitely Satan's agenda to turn the Bible into a big falsified document! Can you imagine the changes already found in many translations?

What can you say about this?
Is this translation justified?
Bible Society of Nigeria should take note!

"And the Spirit of the LORD will come upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man."
(1 Samuel 10:6) KJV

Compare

1 SAM 10:6 "Sa'an nan Ruhun Ubangiji zai sauko maka, za ka kuwa yi rawa da sowa tare da su, za ka zama wani mutum dabam."
(Hausa Sabon Juyi)

I found so many of such devilish errors in the New Hausa Translation when working on my booklet "Everyday With The Holy Spirit"

WORDS OF CAUTION TO THE CHURCH: Matt 24:1-3
“...and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple. And Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down.” NKJV

Beware of the temptation of giant structural developments; pay very close attention to souls with God’s supply at your disposal!

Never lose sight of the Lords Great Commission in Matthew 28:18-20. Remain focused to the extraordinary ministry Jesus gave us. Conventional or traditional Evangelism had turned the ‘church into a club and another religion.

Matt 10:28
“Don’t be afraid of those who want to kill your body; they cannot touch your soul. Fear only God, who can destroy both soul and body in hell.” (NLT)
It is high time we resorted to trusting God and stop the fear of ordinary mortals. Ordinary security agencies are only meant for fearful ordinary humans; while the Church represents a supernatural government of God Almighty. Our Master did not behave timidly at His arrest and journey to the cross. Please let the angels do the work if we truly arc committed to GOD!

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

CHAPTER SEVEN
THE NECESSARY ROLE OF THE HOLY GHOST
 “Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Hint, saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” And He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. But you shall receive power when the holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth. “(Acts 1:64) NKJV

These were the Lord's final words to His disciples. The only best He could place into their hands was the assurance of the fulfillment of an everlasting or enduring promise of the Holy Spirit who would be the guide to all genuine Christian living. He had mentioned this to them in John “Because I have said these things, you are filled with grief. But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. When he comes, he will convict the world of guilt in regard to sin and righteousness and judgment: in regard to sin, because men do not believe in me; in regard to righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer; and in regard to judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned.”

Although they were still being held bound and ruled by the earthly orientations; being obsessed by the material or worldly possessions and man-made approach about life, they curiously asked; “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” However, understanding their limitations of divine arrangements and provisions, (just like many of us are facing the same challenge today).

Jesus drew their attention to the greatest earthly and eternal necessity of life; “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me...”As for God, to His people, His greatest provision for us is to be blessed, ruled or controlled by the Holy Spirit. In fact He considers this as the topmost priority that can never be compromised or replaced by any of the best of earthly blessing or achievement.

 But the greatest mistake humanity had faced throughout decades had been to listen to contrary and misleading voices. It was the same problem that made the first created humans to fall into the terrible sin of rebellion against God (Gen 3); which all of us had suffered its spill over (Rom 5:15.17).

But still, because of Jesus Christ, there is great hope; by the wonderful intervention of God through the power of the Holy Spirit, we can all return to Him in faith and overcome the tricks of Satan over and against God’s purposes for our lives.

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – MARK
Most of the account of the gospel writers on the Holy Spirit bears the same message. It will not be necessary to comment on verses with such similarity. However the reader is advised to read through the verses without being bored, make it an interesting exercise!

Mark1:8 “I indeed baptize you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.” (Mathew 3:11).

Mark 1:10 “And immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove” Mark 1:12 “Immediately the Spirit drove Him into the wilderness.” (Mathew3:16 and 14).
Mark 3:29 “...but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit:  never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation” (Mathew 12:28-32).

Mark 12:36 “For David himself said by the Holy Spirit: 'The Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right hand, till I make your enemies your footstool.” (Mathew 22:43).

Mark 13:11 “But when they arrest you and deliver you up, do not worry before hand, or premeditate what you will speak. But whatever is given you in that hour, speak that, for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.” (Mathew 10:20).

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

CHAPTER SIX
THE PLACE OF BEING ALONE
"So the child grew and became strong in Spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his manifestation to Israel" (Lu1:80) Every believer’s hour of manifestation; the only attainable divine appearance; reality and perfect fulfillment in us to the present day generation requires getting lost in the wilderness or deserts.

John the Baptist is an exceptional example for the present day ecclesia to emulate if our prayer to save our nations should prevail over all drifted spirituality or self made Christianity. The early stage of ones Christian life is likened to childhood, which must be accompanied with growth and characterized by spiritual strength. This kind of growth and strength would demand seclusion from the usual or traditional formalities of ordinary life.

The solitary confinements can work to bring one to the expected hour of presentation, attainment, record setting and manifestation. This will however require a very high degree of determination, focus, diligence, discipline, self-restrain, patience and forbearance. John the Baptist’s assignment was that of a forerunner, and yet he had to follow the process and pattern of becoming a power manifestation as evident in the initial ministry of the Lord Jesus.

“And the Child grew and became strong in Spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him.”
“And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.” (Lk. 2:40,52)  As a child Jesus grew, became spiritually strong, increased in wisdom and in the endowment of grace. These continued steadily in His life until the time of His manifestation. His ministry was remarkably characterized by a consistent commitment to prayer: The following testimonies in the gospels attest to that.

“Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a solitary place and there He prayed. (Mk. 1:35). “Now when it was day, He departed and went into a deserted place. And the crowd sought Him and came to Him, and tried to keep Him from leaving them;” (Lk.4:42). “And when He had sent them away, He departed to the mountain to pray. “Mk. 6:46, However, the report went around concerning Him all the more; arid great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their infirmities.” (Lk.5: 15) And also: Mt. 4:25; Mk. 3:7; Jn. 6:2 “So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed. (Lk.5:16) And also: Mt 14:23; Mr 6:46.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (28)

 Baffle! The coming of God Almighty among humans by Christ Jesus and through all believers is a deadly confrontation to satanic agencies... Walk in your liberty as one of the only born of God!

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – MATHEW
1:18, 20 “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows:
After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, and before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.(vs. 18).
Joseph did not know this, so “was minded to put her away secretly”(vs.19).
“But while he thought about these things, behold, and angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, and saying, '….Do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.”

You see? The eternal purpose of God to send into the world a Savior was impossible without the Holy Spirit. Out of nothing the Holy Spirit brings forth the Super Character named Jesus.

There is no better way of
starting the New Testament good news of the Holy Spirit than this. This forms the strongest eagle wings that will transport us into the rest of the New Testament. Let us carry on with the Holy Spirit...

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

CHAPTER FIVE
PURPOSE OF PRAYER IMPORTUNITY
We find access into a deep consciousness of the God-kind of knowledge when our spiritual sensitivity rises to the expected God-directed level. This knowledge reminds us of our kingdom responsibility; knowing fully well that God handed to us the power or authority to manage the affairs of His entire creation. Our desire to fulfill kingdom responsibility will therefore be aroused by an intense urge to pray, the point is; kingdom responsibility will never get accomplished without making prayer a lifestyle.

Prayer ceases to remain a religious routine or rite. It becomes a serious godly affair that must never be meddled with earthly work. Prayer serves as the power house where faith is generated. In essence, if one’s kingdom’s call (that is standing in the place or capacity of God through Christ
Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit to run or administer the affairs of His entire creation) must be actualized; prayer must remain an imperative force.

The concern for a radical approach to fulfill our kingdom responsibility had prompted the compilation of the prayer and intercessory indicators below:

1. The Kingdom Perception
“And he said unto them, Verily 1 say unto you, that there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power. “(Mk. 9:1)

It is not possible for the believer to know how to fully or perfectly function in the kingdom of God without having its glimpse. Having a very clear knowledge and understanding of God and His Kingdom perspective drives the believer into a life time search to be like Him and rule alongside with Him; advancing and enforcing God’s kingdom principles over His entire creation. And so the prayer point...

2. The Kingdom at Hand
“And as ye go, preach, saying, the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”
(Mt 10:7) And also: Mt. 3:2; 4:17; Lk. 9:2; 10:9

In other words, the kingdom is near or yet, the kingdom is already here. The activities that accompany kingdom enforcement express great exertion of power. That is, the very expression of its reality.
“Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast Out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.” (Mt.10:8)
And so the prayer point;

‘Oh Lord, Let me behold the very presence and glory of Your kingdom in my life and ministry so that I can do what is expected of me in the Kingdom service in Jesus Name. Amen’

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (27)

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – ZECHARIAH
4:6 “…This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: not by might nor by power but by my Spirit, says the Lord.” Let me simply comment here: nothing ever takes the place of the Holy Spirit; in other words there is no substitute for Him!

Zechariah 12:10 “And I will pour on the house of David, and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication, then they will look on me whom they pierced….” This happens to be the last verse on the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament. The function of the Holy Spirit here is that of causing Gods people to acknowledge the one they hated to the point of death.

People’s rejection of the truth never stops His Spirits promptings and probe into their lives, until some day the wind of change becomes inevitable. Lord, help us by your ever abiding Spirit to win souls and make disciples of all nations in the Name of Jesus. Amen.

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

CHAPTER FOUR
THE GODLY UTTERANCE
“Also it shall be, when he sits on the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write for himself a copy of this law in a book, from the one before the priests, the Levites. And  it shall be with hint, and he shall read it all the days of his life, that he may learn to fear the LORD his God and be careful to observe all the words of this law and these statutes, that his heart may not he Lifted above his brethren, that he may not turn aside from the commandment to the right hand or to the left, and that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he and his children in the midst of Israel. (Dent. 17:18-19)

“Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success." (Josh. 1:7,8)

“Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in his law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper.” (Ps. 1:1-3).

When God’s people resort to their heavenly language, you can be rest assured of heavenly results manifesting on the planet earth. For the will of God to be done on earth as it is in Heaven, the language of the Spirit’s new creation must be put into real practice. We are not talking about ‘church as usual’ lip service to the Bible. It is the dispensation of the reality of born again species whose faith-released utterance is accompanied with substantial and undisputable evidences.

 It is God’s upbringing of a generation of the genuine kingdom principles whose lifestyle will cause the counterfeit power to take its place at the footstool. Our tongues’ expression had found conformity with the divine.

Our imitation of the Master of the universe by our new found faith declaration is giving the earth a new face. We are confident in our Biblical faith conversation such that righteousness is defeating evil; the darkness of’ the world can no longer comprehend our shining light; holiness and not morality is getting over filth and all sinfulness.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (26)

November 26 the Holy Spirit's promise is working in our situations moment by moment according to our faith....

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – HAGGAI
2:5 “According to the word that I covenanted with you when you come out of Egypt, so my Spirit remains among you; do not fear.”
To be frank, when I come across a scripture like this one, I admit my fallacious stand point about the Holy Spirit! Lets just pray that His mercy endures forever, and let Him guide us into all truth in Jesus' name. Amen.

You see, that distant Egypt covenant, still makes the ever abiding presence of the Holy Spirit relevant in our time. Did I hear you say, “What about the Blood and new covenant in Christ?” Yes, it is a greater enforcement and fulfillment.

Let us keep drinking from His non-stop fountain, so that “out of our belly (hearts) shall flow rivers of living water” (Jn. 7:39). Let me not forget, with the Holy Spirit ever increasing intimacy, FEAR IS RULED out of our lives! Amen!

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

CHAPTER THREE
THE CHURCH’S THRESHOLD AND CONSUMMATION

 “...Until I declare Your strength to this generation, Your power to everyone who is to come.”(Fs. 71:18).

Now, the hour has come for the Lord Jesus to make Himself known to the nations of the world. Many members of the community of believers may never hear the sound of great shaking; however, the faithful are already partaking in an unprecedented spiritual explosion that is terrifying to the cosmic order.
“See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape If we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven, whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, ‘Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.’ this, ‘Yet once more’ indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. For our God is a consuming fire.” (Heb. 12:25-29).

The recent unfolding in world events indicates the undisputable fulfillment of Bible prophecies. The unbelievers, that’s people without Christ, whether in the disobedient church or in the heathen world; (there is no difference), are experiencing an era of turbulence. Refusal to accept the salvation plan of God through Christ Jesus has become a terrifying phenomenon to the rebellious peoples of the world. We are drawing much closer to the season of a great restoration to the community of believers; a mighty revival is already taking place. It is only those who insist to remain righteous that are conscious of this end time move of the Spirit.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (24)

November 24 affirms all possibilities by the power of the Holy Spirit; He is not restricted under no circumstances....

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – MICAH
2:7 “You who are named the house of Jacob: Is the Spirit of the Lord restricted? Are these His doings? Do not my words do good to him who walk uprightly?”
A million dollar question and a resounding one of the millennium! “Is the spirit of the Lord restricted?” Never! He remains very actively relevant to those who are ready to be committed to His relentless friendship.

Micah 3:8 “But truly I am full of power by the Spirit of the Lord, and of justice and might, to declare to Jacob his transgression and to Israel."
One is reminded of the words of Jesus “but you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you …” (Acts 1:8). What follows is the pronouncement and witness about the Way, Truth and Life. The abominable atrocities among believers (churches) and society today must be pronounced, arrested and sentenced to perpetual silence in Jesus' name. Amen.

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

CHAPTER TWO
REALIZING GOD’S POTENTIAL WITHIN
Lack of realizing God’s given inner potential deprives a person from having the desire and ambition to succeed in life. Such deprivation can also subject a person to a lifestyle that is only obtainable from environmental and circumstantial influences. Many people have ended up in life as victims of circumstances rather than fulfilling their actual dreams and or aspirations.

What does it take to realize ones inner potentials or possibilities? We all need some kind of inspiration as a result of creative awareness, this is only given to people who can submissively humble themselves to be instructed; those who are ready to learn and keep learning. People who are filled with pride are always full of themselves; self controls them and they can hardly desire to improve upon their present estate. They end up living in their predicaments and woes!

Let us consider the testimonies of some Bible characters. Apostle James spoke of Elijah;
“Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.” (James 5:17)

Elijah or any great man and woman of God are people ‘with a nature like ours’ and yet they excelled in their God’s given assignments. Every one of us is recreated with the supernatural potential embedded in us. The moment we were born again, it implied an entrance into a new nature; Gods very nature. We can accomplish or succeed in life beyond our natural abilities.

So, even as you read this book, our expectation is for you to be stirred up into a higher consciousness to receive the Holy Spirit’s wisdom and knowledge to do the extraordinary in life. There are many great and marvelous works that have been left undone. But God’s people have preferred the ordinary to the supernatural. And so they have concluded to live within the perspective of impossibilities.

It must not continue to be that way. If people of a nature like ours were able to venture into highly prospective ministries, our places of accomplishing great works are still waiting for us to occupy them.

The promise of the Holy Spirit's out pour is already fulfilled. We are now enjoying His overflowing gifts, diversities of activities, ministry fruit bearing and inexhaustible blessings.

But ignorance and rebellion have deprived many from these kingdom rights (1Cor 12). My mustard seed faith answered prayer is that as you read these verses, you will be miraculously exempted from such depravity in Jesus name. Amen!

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

Be encouraged to read this booklet on this link. Your entire life will find direction to God's call...

CHAPTER ONE
PURPOSEFUL MINISTRY
There must be a deliberate emphasis on creating awareness (not to continue with an attitude of making people look or behave like us), but to make people take a close look at their Creator — GOD, with a clear purpose of knowing Him and His eternal or original plan for each of us.

This means, that individuals, families, communities, and nations were originally created or made for distinct purposes and intentions. God does not engage on haphazard plans about His entire creation. Everything He made was decisively intended to achieve an eternal mission for His glory.

And every one of us is expected to be instrumental to the fulfillment of divine purpose. “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them” (Eph 2:10);
For Additional Reading: Gen 1:26; De. 32:6; Ps 100:3; Is 19:25; 29:23; 44:21; Jn. 3:3,5; 1Cor3:9;2Co5:5,17;Eph1:4;4:24;Tit 2:14.

In general terms, according to Genesis 1:26, God made man for the purpose of taking absolute charge of His wonderful creation; “Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth “(Gen 1:28). And throughout the long history of humanity, His plan for mankind to accomplish this purpose had remained His focus.

This was conclusively perfected in His Son Jesus Christ. John the beloved in his testimony about the Lord Jesus clearly stated;“He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. “(1Jn.3:8)

The purpose for which the Son of God was manifested is to destroy the works of Satan; whose wicked plan had remained the aversion and distortion of man’s focus from his Creator. In other words, Jesus came to rule or exert authority over Satan and his wicked reign or kingdom over God’s creation. The Lord Jesus Himself at the concluding part of His earthly ministry declared to the Father; “I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished he work which You have given Me to do."

 John 17:4. From our study of this scripture, it is evident that the Lord did what the Father had purposed for His life and ministry on earth. And He in turn handed over to the believers the task of God’s kingdom expansion. “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father." (Jn. 14:12).

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (22)

November 22 says, "Let the Holy Spirit enter your life fully; great work is pending on your earthly schedule..."

The Holy Spirit in the bible – EZEKIEL
 2:2 “Then the Spirit entered me when He spoke to me and set my feet and I heard Him who spoke to me…” You can know the entrance of the Spirit into you; you can hear Him speak to you; and you can know what He does with you “set me on my feet”. All these were necessary to Ezekiel for the work God had assigned him to do (Read verses 3-10).

Ezekiel 3:12 “The Spirit lifted me up, and I hear behind me a great thunderous voice: Blessed is the glory of the Lord from His place.” You can know the lifting up by the Spirit, hear the frightening sound of His voice, He declares the blessing of His glory.

Ezekiel 3:14 “So the Spirit lifted me up and took me away and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; but the hand of the Lord was strong upon me.”
The Holy Ghost lifted Ezekiel up, took him away from where he was to a destination (Vs. 15).
You may feel the tension and anxiety of the human spirit within, but as long as the strong hand of the Lord remains on you, your mission must be accomplished. Amen!

Ezekiel 3:24 “Then the Spirit entered me and set me on my feet, and spoke to me and said to me: 'Go, shut yourself inside your home." Ezekiel repeats the process of the dealing of the Spirit with him, but here there is an additional commitment assigned for him to do; to shut himself in the house.

This could be the same Holy Spirit message for you now, you might have been roaming and lingering about in despair and hopelessness. Do it now, do not procrastinate any longer. Sure He is talking to you right now!

THE PURPOSE OF LIFE - BY
BROTHER MATTHEW ARIN ADAMS

INTRODUCTION
We have often times abandoned our God’s intended position in life by submitting to influences and orientations of the men and the world. Contrary to divine provisions; what we could have gained from the Holy Spirit’s direction and encounter, the enemy’s bait had hooked many into regrets and subsequent eternal damnation!

 In other words, we can be ruled by ordinary fellow men; people of our own very likeness; our ordinary kinsmen; school mates; work or business colleagues; religious doctrines; teachers and a host of man-made orientations.

Many because of lack of same direction and or guidance had become victims of circumstances; living this life only subject to what their immediate environment had suggested to and provided for them. Certainly, this is the cause of the deplorable negative affects over one’s entire existence and journey into divine destiny; the kind of life God had intended or purposed for us.

 For many of us, if there was another opportunity, we would like to start this life all over again. But alas, this cannot happen! The only hope is for all of us to begin an outright rejection of human and or circumstantial influences over our lives and quickly begin

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (21)

Isaiah 61:1 “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor, He has sent me to heal the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound …” The pattern of the ministry of Jesus is hereby prophesied, and fulfilled by Christ’s personal declaration (Luke 4:18). It was by the Holy Spirit that the ministry of Jesus was inaugurated and carried on. What ministry can succeed without this pattern and approach? None! Hence the unavoidable necessity to return to Christ like pattern of ministry.

Isaiah 63:10 “But they rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit; so He turned Himself against them as an enemy, and He fought against them.” Should this not be frightening to believers of our day? To rebel against and grieve the Holy Spirit is tantamount to forfeiting divine protection and making God himself to act as an enemy to us. We should not allow God Himself to fight against us because of our deliberate neglect of the Holy Spirits guidance and instruction.

God lays much emphasis on our relationship with the Holy Spirit for His irreplaceable role in our various personal and cooperate service. No wonder, blasphemy against Him is unpardonable. We must develop and protect the integrity of our friendship with Him in Jesus' Name. Amen.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (20)

November 20 declares “Woe to the rebellious children…, who take counsel, but not of me; and who devise plans, but not of my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin”. (Is 30:1)

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – ISAIAH
11:2 “The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him (the Messiah), the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord.” Isaiah’s prophesy by the Holy Spirit was about Christ the King. Its fulfillment can never be disputed in the Spirit-filled believers!

Isaiah 30:1 “Woe to the rebellious children…, who take counsel, but not of me; and who devise plans, but not of my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin”. Every plan made and executed without the Spirits initial involvement stands to be regretted. Let us not keep Him out of our plans. We must always remember to ask, ‘what is the Lord saying?' before we embark on a project!

Isaiah 32:15 “Until the spirit is poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field. And the fruitful field is counted as a forest.”
What supernatural undertaking by the Holy Spirit.

When we seem to run out of
hope in every regard once the Spirit of God comes upon us, the situation must change for us, until we “show His strength to this generation and His power to everyone that is to come” (Ps. 71:18).

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (19)

November 19 launches us into a peculiar Holy Ghost experience, our unreserved permission to have Him rule, guide, comfort, help, intercede etc is perfectly fulfilled in Jesus Name...

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – PSALMS
51:11“Do not cast me away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me”
Psalms 51:12 “Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me by your generous Spirit.” David’s prayer about the indwelling Spirit in these verses had been fulfilled for the present day believer by the promises of Christ in John 14:16; that the Spirit would “abide with you forever”.

We should continue to enjoy His indwelling presence and His upholding, as we resist every temptation to grieve and/or quench Him. Let us maintain the prayer; “the grace of the Lord, the love of God and the communion of the Holy Spirit abide with us now and evermore. Amen.”

Psalms 104:30 “You send forth your Spirit, they are created; and you renew the face of the earth.” The Holy Spirit of creation, and still in the same operation.  Sticking to Him renews everything about us constantly.

Psalms 139:7 “Where can I go from your Spirit? Or where can I flee from your presence?”
David was not wondering about the Holy Spirit he knew that God Himself  was every where all at the same time.

These verses 7-12 take care of a wandering soul who is not acquainted with the Spirits companionship everywhere he goes. Read these verses 7-12 over and over until the Spirits knowledge if fully active in our lives. Amen!

Psalms 143:10 “Teach me to do your will, for you are my God: your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.” How can David ever forget about the goodness of the Spirit of the Lord who was upon him since the day he was anointed by Prophet Samuel.

The life of David to some extend exhibited this understanding. He loved the enemy of his soul even when he had the opportunity to retaliate. (1sam. 16:13; 26:7-9). we have never been deprived of Gods goodness by His Spirit;

We should reciprocate such great favor by allowing Him to undertake the kingdom business through our lives of submission to Him always.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (18)

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – JOB
26:13 “By the Spirit He adorned the heavens; His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.” This confirms that the origin of creation was only possible by the Holy Spirit. The devil was overthrown and totally outsmarted when God finally sent His begotten Son to save humanity and restore us to our original position of dominion over His creation. The Spirit of God is our only source of strength and renewal.

Job 33:4 “The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life,” (Note my comment above 26:13).
Our earthly and eternal survival is guaranteed by the work of Holy Spirit. Our life can choke into perpetual silence without Him. Let’s remain alive in Him! Amen.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (17)

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – NEHEMIAH
9:20 “You also gave your good Spirit to instruct them, and did not withhold your manna from their mouth, and gave them water for their thirst.” Wow! The provision for food, water, clothes, health and sustenance of bountiful life even in the wilderness situation can always be adequately catered for by the Holy Spirit.

“They lacked nothing …” (v21).
The Holy Spirits instruction or teaching is vital in every life’s endeavor. For unfailing and sustainable divine perfection, we must love and need Him every day. (Jn. 14:26).

Nehemiah 9:30 “Yet for many years you had patience with them, and testified against them by the Holy Spirit in your prophets. Yet they would not listen….” Here is where judgment is tempered with mercy; if insistent prophetic warnings by the Holy Spirit are not adhered to, God's people become vulnerable to self, sin, death and the devil. (Verses 30-31).
May the present day believer (church) strictly adhere to the open revelations by the Holy Spirit through the chosen men of God in order to avert the on-going irritating apostasy among Gods people. Amen.

EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (16)

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – 1CHRONICLES
12:18 “Then the Spirit came upon Amasai, chief of the captains, and he said: We are yours, O David; we are on your side, o son of Jesse!” Loyalty and submission are the Spirit's attributes in the believer’s life. We must exhibit same in our Christian character. With the Holy Spirit, there is no place for betrayal!

1 Chronicles 28:12 “…and the plans for all that he (David) had by the Spirit, of the house of the Lord, of all the chambers all around, of the treasures of the house of God, and all the treasuries of the dedicated things…” The Holy Spirit gave the plans to David for everything about the temple which Solomon his son would build. That was a physical structure and arrangement. What plans have the present day believer received from the Holy Spirit about the spiritual temple which we are!

2 Chronicles 20:14 “then the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jahaziel the son of Zachariah … in the midst of the assembly”.
This was also for a specific message to the king of Judah, Jehoshaphat, “Do not be afraid nor dismay because of the great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but Gods.”(Vs.15)
What encouragement, only by the Holy Spirit can such powerful pronouncement be made. Holy Spirit, our Helper, do your work in our lives in like manner, in the name of Jesus. Amen!

2 Chronicles 24:20 “Then the Spirit of God came upon Zachariah the son of Jehoiada, the priest who stood above the people, and said to them … Because you have forsaken the Lord, He also has forsaken you.” It is only by the Spirit prompting that the man of God can speak with such boldness to condemn the waywardness of a people. Let no human right activist and politicians take your place as the prophet of God!
