WHY YOU SHOULD LISTEN AGAIN TO THAT SERMON OR SONG?
On The 21st Of September, That Was Some Days Ago, Something Reoccurring Happened. "Reoccurring" In The Sense That I Have Had That Experience Afore Times.
As I Was Writing The Devotional I Titled "Don't Patch It", I Arrived At A Place In That Message Where I Mentioned That, "The Unction Teaches Us." As I Stepped On That Shore And Mentioned The Word "Unction", A Special Remembrance Hits Me Of A Sermon Preached By Rev. Olusola Areogun Where The Unction & Its Manifestation Was Taught.
Arriving With That Remembrance Is A New Or Renewed Excitement And Anointing Plus A Special Moment Of Understanding/Insight Like Of One Caught Up In A Trance Or To God's Presence.
Since 21st, I've Gone Back To My Laptop Where All His Sermons Were Downloaded & Saved But I've Not Been Able To Track Down That Particular Sermon. And I Knew God Recalled That Sermon To Me Because He Wanted Me To Listen To It Again And Be Blessed By It.
But Beyond That, There Are Other Intents. God May Want Me To Listen And Listen Again To Receive An Impartation Or Catch The Spirit Of That Message. Don't Forget That Anointed Words Spoken Are Spirit & Life (John 6:63). That's What That Capsule Contains Or Houses And Is Deliverable To Any Who Contacts It. This Is Why You Must Seek To Read Or Listen To Anointed Teachings. It Has Power Of Effect Over You - To Consequently Change You. It Can Build You Up Or Break You Down Until You See Your Wretchedness In Sin & Come To God In Godly Sorrow.
So, What Was God Trying To Do? He's Trying To Offer Me A Desk Or Platform To Connect To For An Impartation. It Seems God May Be Of The Opinion That I Needed Impartation Or Ministration In A Particular Line (That I Myself May Not Know Or Be Acquainted With).
John 6:63, KJV
"It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life."
DID You Hear That? What Quickens? The Spirit!
To Quicken Means To "Stir, Hasten, Rouse, Enable, Empower, Birth, Deliver Into An Experience Or A Status Or Position." Quicken Also Means "To Make Come Alive Or Give Life To Or Give Eternal Life To."
So, In Listening Or Relistening To That Message, God May Want To Cause Life, Inspire, Breathe Or Use It To Move Me Or In Me. For Short, It May Even Be To Spark & Sparkle, Kindle & Rekindle The Eternal Life In Me Or Set It On Motion. Like Pouring Fuel On Fire That's Already Burning. It'll Blaze More.
It's Like Watering Or Letting The Chlorophyll In Any Green Plant Trap Sunlight While Making Use Of Carbon Dioxide & Oxygen [Hope I Got That Definition Of Photosynthesis. Na Secondary School Days Definition I Still Dey Carry Around].
And Until Then, All Those Things That Could Happen Won't Fall. I Know That From The Bible As I've Shown You & By Experiences. I Have Had That Experience Often.
I Still Had It Earlier Today. The Lawrence Oyor Song That I Posted Today Was Triggered By A Teaching Somewhere & The Mentioning Of The Song Of Solomon. So, I Went To Redownload It Since I Didn't Even Know Where I Kept My First Download.
I've Listened To That Song More Than 50 Times Today. I Therefore Gave God The Handle To Move & Do Whatsoever He Wanted To Do To Me Through It.
The Same Applies To My Earlier Teaching Which I Did On The 23rd Of June But Which I Recalled.
It Was The Mention Of Ministry Offices And Some Anomalies Around Them That Brought That One. So, I Went Back To Fetch It. I've Read That More Than Twice Since I Recalled It Again.
I Therefore Gave God The Handle To Reconcretize Truth In Me & Let My Spirit Be Refreshed.
I Believe You Too Must Have Experienced & Had This Often.
Did You Go Back To Those Materials? If It Was A Song, Did You Ask Those Who Could Have It In order To Rejoice In It For The Time Being And Have God Do What He Could Do Through It To You. I'm Hearing A Bible Verse In My Spirit! Let Me Post It.
John 5:35, KJV - "He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light."
If You Don't Know, You Renew Your Spirituality Before God. That's Why We Have A Verse Of The Bible That Talks About "Mind Renewal" (Rom.12:2).
That Of Yesterday Or Yesteryears Is Never Enough. If You Stop Renewing, Corruption & Debasement Of The World Would Catch Up With You And Before You Know It, You'll Begin To Conform To The World In A Twinkle Of An Eye Instead Of Being Transformed From The Inside By The Renewing Of Your Mind. It Is This Transformation That'll Then Birth Uncommon But Biblical Responses & Actions That You'll Be Taking That'll Amuse Others & Contradict The Lifestyle Of Others Who Are Living As The World & In Conformation To Its Trends.
But Let's Go Back To That John I Afore Quoted Without Teaching Or Explaining It.
You Remember I Was Talking Of Something Spiritual [That Has Light Or A Spiritual Blessing To Give] That God Could Send You To Go Back To For Certain Defined Purposes.
But Then, Those Things Are Meant For A Moment In Time. It's Like Seeking To Cross A Body Of f Water And Finding A Canoe In Time Just For That. If Another Need Arose In The Future, Let's Say Of Climbing The Mountain, The Solution Provider In God Would Have To Provide Another Fitting Solution And Cut A Cloth To Size For That One Too.
So, Jesus Calls John "A Burning And A Shining Light" That His Audience Were Willing For A Season [Definitive Moment] To Rejoice In His Light [That Is, They Were Excited, Believing & Willing To Take His Message As Instructions Or Guidance For Their Path & Life]. But All This Happened For Awhile.
It Happened Until The Son Of God That Has Been Foretold And Testified Of By John Arrived.
Don't Forget That Jesus Is The Light Of The World! The Better Light. The One John Pointed The People To As Coming After Him But Who Is Better And Preferred Above John.
In Jesus, Everything Culminates And Finishes. He's The Perfect Light [Not To Rejoice In For A Season Like John's Imperfect Light] But Forever As The Signalled & Revealed Light Or Model.
Let's Read How Even John [That Was Described By Jesus As A Burning & A Shining Light Which People Were Willing To Follow Or Take After] Pointed To Jesus' Coming/Arrival.
Luke 3:15-16, KJV - "15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not; 16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:"
Now, Let Me Ask You, Who Has The Promise Of Delivering Better Things Deducing From Our Reading So Far?
John Or Jesus?
Obviously Jesus! John Pointed To Him As He That's Preferred Above Him Who'll Baptize People With The Holy Spirit & Fire. At This Time, The Only Thing John Was Doing Is Water Baptism For Repentance Of Sins. Imagine That! That's Like Comparing Gold In Its Quality To Aluminum! One Will Fade For The Other.
As A Matter Of Fact, There's Even A Verse That Explains Why John Came Baptizing. Let Me Let You Read That Yourself First Of All Before I Raze It Down With Dividing & Exposition.
John 1:31, KJV - "And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water."
DID You See That? John Said He Doesn't Know The Christ But He Had A Mark Given Him By God To Trail Him Down & Identify Him Amidst Many People.
John 1:32-34, KJV - "32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him. 33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost. 34 And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God."
DID You See How John Was Able To Know That Jesus (Though His Own Cousin) Is The Christ?
The Anointed May Be Someone That You Know But You Need Certain Signs For Identification. Else, You'll Trivialize Him Or Her. Unless God Introduces People To You, You'll Still Regard Them In The Flesh. But The Bible Has This To Say About Not Regarding People In The Flesh.
II Corinthians 5:16, KJV "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."
To Continue With John The Baptizer, You'll See That The Entire Ministry Of John Was Given Him Just Because Of One Person - Jesus & The Identification Of Him As The Christ.
That's Why John Had To Be Born. That's Why John Is Popularly Also Called Christ's Forerunner.
He Prepared & Revealed Him To The People Of His Time. He Introduced Jesus Into "The Body Of Christ" If You'll Say It That Way If It Were Today. He Affirmed Jesus' Blooming Ministry And People Began To Leave Him To Even Go To Jesus.
John 1:35-37, KJV - "35 Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples; 36 And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God! 37 And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus."
Look At Consequences All About John! What A Consequence For John! His Testimony Brought Ruins To Him And He Recognized That Himself.
When Certain Of His Disciples Brought Up Words Of Envy, Jealousy And Contention Concerning Jesus Baptizing More Than John & All People Going To Jesus, He Said One Thing Summarily, "I Must Decrease; He Must Increase."
John 3:25-28, KJV - "25 Then there arose a question between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purifying. 26 And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him. 27 John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. 28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him."
John 3:29-30, KJV - "29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease."
Did you see our arrival now? Are you satisfied and your quest quenched now?
The next question you may ask is, "why did you too go back to your teachings [the ones you do by yourself to re-read them?]
The Truth Is This, When The Anointing Is On Me, I Come Under Special Inspiration To Author. As I Do, The Spirit Do Bypass My Residual Knowledge Or Acumen To Speak Or Write. He Does This By Speaking As Thoughts In Me To Me When He Gives Me Trains Of Choice Of Words (Vocabulary), Scriptures & Specific Verses Of The Bible To Leverage And Explanation That Are Beyond My Fathom For Teaching.
In Such Situation, If I'll Grow My Own Spirit And Feed It Too, I Have To Go Back To What God Said [Though Through Me] But Which I Was Not All Aware Of Nor Really Conceptualized Or Thought About At Writing When He Said Them Or Gave Them To It.
That's What Makes Someone's Teaching Revelatory, Full Of Life, Energy, Dynamo And Turbo (Speed Of Effect) To Affect And Achieve All Sorts As God Will Be Pleased.
Brethren, This Thing Is Not Really And Totally Mastery.
Not That I've Afore Thought Or Reasoned Out All I Wrote Now Out Before Setting Out. I Never Knew I Would Teach All These I Taught And Go This Far. It's Rather God Aiding His Servant. It's Not By Power Nor By Might But By His Spirit says the Lord Of Hosts (Zech.4:6). Even The Lord God Of Hosts Is Affirming And Asking You To Believe That Sincerity. Don't Doubt It. That's Not A Cook Up!
May We Not Take For Granted The Food & Wine God Wants Us To Rejoice In For A Season!
May We Hear And Be Prompt!
When Called, Reminded Or Given Witnesses On Such, May We Hastily Go To The Living Water And Quench Our Thirst.
