APOSTLE AND PROPHET JOSEPHAT ELIAS MWINGIRA
We go to church and do everything that concerns the church; all these are preparations for going to the place we desire to go.
Jesus set an example and said; The Kingdom of God is likened to the ten virgins, five wise and five foolish. The church is the bride of the Lamb, and the purpose of being the bride is to prepare people to know that there will come a day when they will be required by their Lord. In all things, you must know that you who are saved are the bride, but among the ten virgins who were waiting for the Lord Jesus, five were foolish and five were wise. So, where do you stand between these two groups?
How will you know if you are foolish or wise? Those ten virgins were waiting for the bridegroom while holding lamps ready to wait for the bridegroom so that they could enter the hall for the wedding, but five had oil and five did not have oil. There are people today who are in church, are saved, and speak in tongues but do not have oil. You have a lamp because you are saved, but Jesus’ point was not about the lamp or the bride, but about self-recognition; Where is your oil?
When Bartimaeus was raising his voice to call Jesus, the disciples of Jesus tried to silence him, but he did not listen to them because his goal was to meet Jesus and not the disciples of Jesus. When you are calling the Lord of lords, do not be satisfied with anyone who tells you to be quiet, do not agree with anyone who tells you that you cannot, that you are unworthy, that you are not accepted; because when you were saved, you did not come to that person who is saying those things, but you came to one called the Lord of lords; the everlasting Father, the mighty God, and the Prince of Peace. He is the one you came to; focus on Him alone and not on people.
Hebrews 10:7 “Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.”
Before you possess anything, first make God yours because if you do not do that, do not expect to own anything. It is until you have possessed God that you will see prosperity in your life.
SELF-AWARENESS:
This is the number one secret that will enable you to possess; who are you? You must have self-awareness because if you are not self-aware, you will never be able to recognize the one who created you. As much as you are aware of yourself physically, you must also be aware of yourself spiritually. Who are you? Your identity is what will give you possession or lack of possession. Have self-awareness first in order to possess.
Hebrews 10:7 “Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.”
This verse shows self-awareness; stop crying when things happen to you; take your place because if you start crying, it is a sign of failure.
A person who has Jesus does not cry because someone says bad things about this person or because something has been taken from them, no! When they create their happening, you create your own happening that will overshadow what they have done and move forward. David, whenever he encountered a happening, would create his own happening and it would be a victory; why do you cry? Create your own happening.”
Habakkuk 2:1”I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will be say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.” It does not say that a Bishop, Pastor, or prayer mother is the one who can bring prayers before your God, no! But you should stand in your turn, and God will hear you.
The Son of God should recognize that your prayers are heard more than anyone else’s praying for you, because when you explain something to someone, they can express it just as you described it, but when you go directly before the Father in heaven, He will hear you more. When a Pastor or Bishop prays for you and that thing happens, it is by Grace, which you also possess; recognize yourself and stand in your turn. You are the one who make decisions about what is happening in your life, make decisions.
The work you do, the marriage you have, or your business, if it brings you joy in worshiping God, then it is of God. But if it prevents you from serving your God, then it is not of God. Stand firm in what you know so that you can please God. Whether at work, in your business, or wherever you are, let them know that you belong to God; if they hate your God, know that they do not have God.
Daughter and son, recognize yourselves, so that you can find the right person in your life. Because your failure to recognize yourself is why you do not prosper, as God cannot give to a fool. Do not seek to be pampered.
