Sowing Wisely 3
You are invited to the 2019 Streamglobe Conference | Date: July 19th-20th, 2019 | Venue: Holy Faith Bible Church, Lokoja, Nigeria. | Guest Speaker: Apostle Arome Osayi | Audio Version: bit.ly/aud1983 Galatians 6:6-8 (NET) Now the one who receives instruction in the word must share all good things with the one who teaches it. Do not be deceived. God will not be made a fool. For a person will reap what he sows, because the person who sows to his own flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but the one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit. Galatians 6:6-8 (NET) Now the one who receives instruction in the word must share all good things with the one who teaches it. Do not be deceived. God will not be made a fool. For a person will reap what he sows, because the person who sows to his own flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but the one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit. The first time Linda gave to the man of God through whom she had learned the way of the kingdom, she had an expectation to be blessed because she sowed into his ministry, but that expectation was not the reason she gave. She gave because she wanted to honor him and help with the work he was doing, and she got a bountiful harvest of reward from the Lord. But the second time Linda gave to this man of God, the only reason she was giving was that she wanted to get something in return. That was why she got nothing from the LORD. Many believers sow in the right field but not with the right motive, and because of this, they reap nothing. Giving to God only because you want something in return is not the way to sow to the spirit. Search the scriptures, you will see that all who received a bountiful harvest because of their giving didn’t do so primarily because of the returns. They gave either because of honor, or because they wanted to meet a need, or because of love for God’s kingdom. These were the people who were rewarded for their giving. Go into today remembering that the right field to share all good things are with the ones who teach you the word. PRAYER: ask God to purify your motives when giving so that you would not sow to the flesh and reap nothing. Want to be born again? Go here: streamglobe.org/33 —Pst.

Seedtime and Harvest
You are invited to the 2019 Streamglobe Conference | Date: July 19th-20th, 2019 | Venue: Holy Faith Bible Church, Lokoja, Nigeria. | Guest Speaker: Apostle Arome Osayi | Audio Version: bit.ly/aud1982 Genesis 8:22 (KJV) While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. Instead of picking stones from her beans like many others, Amara used the clever method of pouring the beans in water, thereby letting the stones and the bad beans settle, and picking out the good beans but leaving the bad ones and stones in the water. She would then throw out the water with the bad beans and stones on a little portion of soil in her backyard. With time she observed that some of the beans thrown out started germinating and growing. She allowed them to grow and in due time, she harvested a small bucket full of beans from that unintentional planting. Amara didn’t have a bountiful harvest of bags of beans because even though she sowed, her sowing was not intentional. Seedtime is when you sow and give away in hope. Harvest is when you receive as a result of what has been sown. Only fools fail to realize that for every harvest there was a seed time. Life is guided by the law of seedtime and harvest. Many times, people sow seeds without knowing it. But you would agree with me that those who expect a bountiful harvest are deliberate and intentional in their sowing. Those who want a bountiful harvest deliberately sow bountifully. Many believers today expect a bountiful harvest from the Lord but they have not been sowing anything intentionally and purposefully. For example, Sowing quality time daily in the place of prayer reaps a bountiful harvest of spiritual power and intimacy with God (see James 5:16, Heb 11:6). Sowing in the place of the word reaps a harvest of divine wisdom and understanding, and mountain-moving faith, etc. (see Psalm 19:7, Romans 10:17). Sowing financially in love to support the work of God yields a harvest of financial open doors and increase (see Luke 6:38, Phil 4:18-19). Go into today determining to prepare for a bountiful harvest by sowing bountifully(see 2 Cor 9:6). Prayer: Dear Lord, please help me be deliberate, purposeful and wise in my sowing. Amen.

Sowing Wisely 2
You are invited to the 2019 Streamglobe Conference | Date: July 19th-20th, 2019 | Venue: Holy Faith Bible Church, Lokoja, Nigeria. | Guest Speaker: Apostle Arome Osayi | Audio Version: bit.ly/aud1981 Galatians 6:6-8 (NET) Now the one who receives instruction in the word must share all good things with the one who teaches it.Do not be deceived. God will not be made a fool. For a person will reap what he sows,because the person who sows to his own flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but the one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit. After Linda observed that the reason she received great financial open doors that season of her life was because she gave the most to the minister who had instructed her in the word of God the most, she started giving to that minister again. But this time, she did not receive any financial breakthrough. She became confused because she expected her doors to open but they did not. Even though the reason she received the kind of breakthrough she received at first was because she gave to that minister, her motive for giving the second time was now polluted. This time she was sowing to the flesh and that was why she did not receive anything. The first time she gave to that minister, it was because she sincerely appreciated his ministry and wanted to support it. But this second time, she gave because she wanted to do a transaction with God that would fetch her financial breakthrough. The first time she sowed, she sowed to the spirit because she gave in the spirit to God and for His servant, this second time the real reason she gave was because she wanted a return. There was no spiritual seed of honor or love for God’s kingdom, there was only the fleshly seed of greed and self-aggrandizement. Go into today remembering that God is not mocked. Those who sow to themselves(the flesh) under the disguise of giving to God will reap nothing but corruption. But those who sow to the spirit by letting their motivation for giving be honor to God and His servants, love for God’s kingdom, and love for people, will reap a bountiful harvest. Prayer: Lord please help me sow to the Spirit and no more to the flesh. Amen. Want to be born again? click here: streamglobe.org/33 —Pst.

Sowing Wisely
You are invited to the 2019 Streamglobe Conference | Date: July 19th-20th, 2019 | Venue: Holy Faith Bible Church, Lokoja, Nigeria. | Guest Speaker: Apostle Arome Osayi | Audio Version: bit.ly/aud1980 Galatians 6:6-7 (NET) Now the one who receives instruction in the word must share all good things with the one who teaches it.Do not be deceived. God will not be made a fool. For a person will reap what he sows Linda observed that there was a season in her life that she walked in great financial open doors she never expected. When she started inquiring of the the Lord the reason for the unusual open doors she experienced that season, the Lord showed her that it was because she shared her money with a pastor from whom she had learned so much. During that season of her life, she was sowing correctly and reaping a bountiful harvest. Many believers wonder where the most fruitful field for them to give their finances may be. The answer to this important question is found in today’s Bible verses. Believers are expected to share their material things with those who instruct them with the word of God. See the way the Lord presents this truth to us through Apostle Paul here:1 Corinthians 9:11 (NET) If we sowed spiritual blessings among you, is it too much to reap material things from you? Many Christians give their money to ‘pastors and prophets’ who use cunning craftiness and deceitful gimmicks to extract money from them. They do not realize that those who fall for such fall because they are spiritual babies(see 1 Cor 3:1)–carnal believers who can be tossed to and fro by the cunning craftiness of men who deceive(see Ephesians 4:14) because their motive for giving is greed, which these cunning men exploit. Go into today knowing that the way to identify the spiritually fruitful fields to sow your finances for kingdom advancement is by identifying where you are truly being fed with the word of God unto spiritual growth. Prayer: Father, help me sow properly and reap bountifully, in Jesus name. Amen. Want to be born again? click here: streamglobe.org/33 —Pst.

Be Strong in The Lord
You are invited to the 2019 Streamglobe Conference | Date: July 19th-20th, 2019 | Venue: Holy Faith Bible Church, Lokoja, Nigeria. | Guest Speaker: Apostle Arome Osayi | Download Today’s Audio: bit.ly/aud1979 Ephesians 6:10 (KJV) Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. During the Second World War, when Hitler and his army was advancing to take over the world with the might of what Winston Churchill referred to as ‘perverted science’, Winston Churchill, the then prime minister of Britain, knew that the only way Britain and the rest of the world would overcome Hitler was if they remained strong and stood their ground in spite of all the overwhelming attacks. Here’s an excerpt of Churchill’s June 18, 1940 speech to the British house of commons: “… Hitler knows that he will have to break us in this Island or lose the war. If we can stand up to him, all Europe may be free and the life of the world may move forward into broad, sunlit uplands. But if we fail, then the whole world, including the United States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science.Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, “This was their finest hour.â€� “ The rest of the Christian world overcame Hitler and his satanic agenda because they insisted on being strong in spite of it all. The battle looked like a lost course, but one sign that they remained strong was that they never spoke words of discouragement but remained positive and optimistic in spite of contrary outcomes. In the end, God gave them victory. As a believer in Christ, the devil knows that if he cannot break you, he cannot win the war against you, because the victory that overcomes him is [recieved through] your faith(see 1 John 5:4), and you cannot walk in faith and discouragement at the same time. He knows his time is short so he will do anything to try and get you to the point of breaking in weakness and unbelief, but if you insist on God’s report and refuse to break down in discouragement, you will overcome through Christ. Prayer: Ask the Lord to help you stay strong in Him. Resist every spirit of discouragement and weakness today because you are more than a conqueror.

Do Everything In Love
Download Today’s Audio: bit.ly/aud1978 1 Corinthians 16:14 (NET) Everything you do should be done in love. When Seyi became a parent, she understood that love sometimes meant she needed to be hard and tough for the good of her children. She realized that not being tough at times was simply because of self-love. It’s easier sometimes to ignore the foolishness in the heart of a child than to engage on the rigorous and painstaking work of ‘tough love’ required to deliver that child from growing into an undisciplined adult. This understanding now made it easier for her to understand the many tough decisions God had to make as Father of all spirits and God of all flesh. She started understanding why sometimes God would make a severe decision against a certain group of people because He wanted to preserve the rest of the human race from destruction. After carefully studying the Old Testament, I have come to the conclusion that everything God does is out of great love. If you see God kill a person or group of people, it is because of His great love for every other person whose survival would hang in the balance if the iniquity of those people is allowed to spread. Consider the human race like a human body with a gangrenous limb due to an unhealed wound. A good doctor might have to amputate the gangrenous limb to save the rest of the body from becoming gangrenous and dying. God had to judge some people off the face of the earth because He wanted to preserve the rest of humankind from the level of corruption that would have made it impossible for Christ to come and save us. We as humans have not been given the awesome responsibility to judge people that way. We are to leave that responsibility to God. We are to however do everything in love. We are to love even our enemies and pray for them because we know God will already judge them in due time(see Matthew 5:43-45). Go into today remembering that doing everything in love is the hallmark of God’s holiness in us. This is the way to unleash the greatest power of the kingdom in your life. Prayer: Father, teach me to do all things in love and forever give you all glory.

Dare to Follow God
Download Today’s Audio: bit.ly/aud1977 Proverbs 16:25 (KJV) There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. It was God Himself that gave Joseph dreams about his future, but instead of seeing the dream come to pass easily, he went through very tough and difficult times. He was thrown into a pit, sold as a slave, lied against, imprisoned and abandoned. He, however, came out of it all and saw his dream come to pass because he never gave up God trusting in God. Exodus 13:17-18 ‘KJV) ‘And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not through the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and they return to Egypt: [18] But God led the people about, through the way of the wilderness of the Red sea: and the children of Israel went up harnessed out of the land of Egypt.’ We must learn to know God as Father, and that He always wants the best for us. If He leads us through tough moments, He’ll be in it with us to carry us through those moments. God knows what we can and cannot bear, therefore, it is wise to trust Him to lead us. There may be ways that seem easy and now, but these ways are filled with wars that will make life unbearable to the extent that we may lose our faith. Because of this, God, often times would lead us through other paths. But because we cannot see the wars that are ahead, there is a tendency to murmur. Dare to trust God, dare to follow Him and you will never face wars too difficult for you to overcome. Pray this way: Father, I know that you love me. I commit my ways to you and ask that you lead me. Lord, I dare to follow you.

Be Strong
Download Today’s Audio: bit.ly/aud1976 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 (NKJV) Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong.Let all that you do be done with love. When Brian lost his job under very unfair circumstances, his lawyer and friends in the office told him to be strong as they waited for justice to serve its course. In due time, Brain’s overbearing boss who terminated his employment was fired from the company when the legal battle became an embarrassment to the company. Brian was reinstated with a huge settlement. In today’s Bible verse we are reminded to ‘be Strong’. This is not the first time in scripture we are told to be strong (see Ephesians 6:10). Why should we ‘be strong’ as believers? Because we are in warfare against the prince of this world and his kingdom. But the good news is that as long as we stand fast in the faith, we would always come out conquerors. The victory that overcomes the world is appropriated by our faith (1 John 5:14). Those who refuse to be strong are those who compromise their faith because of trials and temptations [orchestrated by the Prince of this world]. One of the surest signs of this is when believers begin to compromise with sin and refuse to repent but rationalize. Go into today remembering that as long as you stand strong and unwavering in the faith, you will overcome every single battle waged against you by the Prince of this world. “1 John 4:4 (KJV) Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” Prayer: Father, help me stand strong in the faith long enough to see my victory delivered, in Jesus name.

Whatever You Call It
Download Today’s Audio: bit.ly/aud1975 “`You are invited to Streamglobe Conference | Date: July 19th-20th, 2019 | Venue: Holy Faith Bible Church, Lokoja, Nigeria. | Guest Speaker: Apostle Arome Osayi |“` Genesis 1:28 KJVAnd God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Veronica woke up to an unusual surprise. it was the cry of a baby just by her window. Oh, what a frail little being! Pitying the baby she took him to an orphanage and offered to assist with his upkeep. At the orphanage, she was asked what she wanted him to be called? ‘Greg’ she responded. Because she called him Greg, everybody called him Greg. One of the first proofs of Adam’s dominion was him giving names to other created beings. And whatever he called them became their names. Genesis 2:19 (KJV), ‘And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.’ This dominion was lost when man sinned. It was however restored in Christ Jesus. Because of Jesus, we now have the ability to name and rename situations. All authority has been given to us in Christ Jesus. We are not to be victims anymore, because we have the power to change situations. Proverbs 18:21 (KJV), ‘Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.’ Whatever you call it is what it will be to you. You may call it death or life, the choice is yours. Begin to speak life to every situation and you will see and have life. Do not settle for what the world throws at you. Pray this way: Father, thank you for restoring me to my place of dominion. I receive grace to walk in this consciousness in Jesus name.

Profit From The Lord
Download Today’s Audio: bit.ly/aud1974 “`Plan to attend the upcoming Streamglobe Conference | Guest Speaker: Apostle Arome Osayi | Date: July 19th-20th, 2019 | Venue: Holy Faith Bible Church, Lokoja, Nigeria“` Isaiah 48:17 (KJV) Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go. After Jacob had worked for Laban for over 15years, it was clear that the blessing upon Jacobs life which also manifested in an excellent work ethic was responsible for Laban’s wealth. When it was time for Laban to pay Jacob off and settle him, Laban acted wickedly and did everything he could to leave Jacob a wretched man who would have to continue to work for him to get by. But Jacobs God was not asleep. The Lord showed Jacob a dream that ensured that Jacob made great profit and became very wealthy in spite of the wickedness of Laban(see Genesis 31:7-13). Among the many benefits of submitting to the Lord God, there is the benefit of Him teaching us to profit and not lose in all that we do. Some believers exclude God from departments of their lives because they believe God is only their God when they are doing ‘spiritual’ things. But those who acknowledge the Lord in all things see His hand in all things. Go into today remembering that profit from the Lord is not given to us merely for the sake of profit. God increases us to be more fruitful in His our kingdom assignment. Prayer: Ask the Lord to help you keep Jesus at the center of it all. Want to be saved?
