THE APOSTOLIC CHURCH NIGERIA, ABAKALIKI AREA HEADQUARTERS | SUNDAY WORSHIP SERVICE | SUN. 9TH OCT. 2022
SPEAKER: APOSTLE (DR.) A. A. AKAJIAKU
THEME: FEAR NOT!
TEXT: II Kings 6:8-23
NOTE
The speaker began the ministration with an opening prayer that got the congregants prepared to recieve the message from the Lord. The speaker went on to charge the congregants to cease from their fears and hold steadfastly in Faith unto God.
Citing several biblical examples and their depth of trust in God, the speaker pointed out that any man who has faith in God, such will never live a life of fear because there is the assurance that there is no impossibility with God.
Considering the character of Abraham, the speaker pointed out that Abraham, while in the situation of childlessness had recieved a promised from the Lord that neither a stranger shall inherit his wealth, for out his loins shall come forth a son. While this was yet to come to pass, the Lord had admonished him to cease from his fear for his children shall be as numerous as the stars in the galaxies and the sands on the seashore.
The speaker also presented the character of Elisha and his servant, Gehazi, the latter, who was beset with fear when the Syrian enemies had surrounded them. But Elisha prayed unto the Lord, who had his eyes opened to see that they that were with them were far more than they that came against him, hence, no cause for fear.
In the days of the reign of Hezekiah, when the Assyrian armies sought to invade them, the people were drowned in their fear but King Hezekiah arose and spoke with faith against the fear that had overwhelmed the people, saying; "to them is an arm of flesh but with us is the Lord to fight our battle" and just as he declared, the Lord indeed had rescued them from their enemies.
The Lord is telling you today, "I am with you, I will lead you to the Promised Land", the speaker went on, adding that when you are afraid, you are sinning against God. The steps of the righteous are ordered by the Lord and He will never lead you into their captivity.
Conclusively, the speaker led the congregants through moments of intercessory prayers and prophetic/apostolic declarations as the ministration was brought to its end at about 12:45PM.
