Programme: Special Prayer For Nigeria (SPFN)
Date: Tuesday, 9th May 2023
Transcript Summary
1. We have been praying for God to change our nation, but it will begin from us because judgement will begin from the house of the Lord (1 Pet. 4:17). In this season, we have to labour in the place of prayer to desire the heavenly. If we do not desire to become heavenly, we cannot be of help to the earth.
2. God is looking for men and women who will do the will of God on earth as it is done in heaven, to disengage the earthly and engage the heavenly (Matt. 6:10). God wants His will to run the earth as it is done in heaven.
3. We must be able to detach from what is seen so that we can appreciate what is not seen. If we do not see the invisible, we cannot detach from the visible. Faith must be given to our souls to help us forsake the treasures in Egypt.
4. Our hearts need to be ‘engraced’ by understanding in order to see what the Spirit of the Lord is painting in our hearts. God is not just bringing demands on us; He is also giving grace. God is making Himself more tangible and real to the soul than the visible. This is bringing grace to our hearts. He is not only telling us to come up; He is also bringing forth Himself to the soul.
5. Giving one’s life for the invisible requires faith, and faith comes by hearing (Rom. 10:17). We must keep hearing the things that make a man incorruptible and undefiled; which also framed our Lord Jesus and made Him remain forever.
6. There is no help for the earth on the earth; help for the earth must come from heaven. God is giving us the privilege and opportunity to trap heaven on earth; this is so that we can be of help to ourselves and others in escaping the tribulation that is coming upon the earth.
7. There is a preparation for us that will make us incorruptible in this season. God is coming to us daily. Although we might be at the level where we are still seeing Christ, let us seek Him. This is not the time to seek natural things; we must keep seeking for things that are incorruptible.
8. The learning of Christ is the delivery of holy commandments that will make us holy. However, it is still possible to turn because the nature of Christ is not incorruptible. It is the learning of everlasting righteousness that will make us incorruptible or unturnable. This is why we must not miss any chance that is coming our way via the word.
Blessings!
