2026 CONVENTION LESSONS
Luke 9:16 Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude. 17 And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up of fragments that remained to them twelve baskets.
1. All who came to Jesus were filled/satisfied when they received what He gave to them, His ministry. Jesus has the capacity to satisfy everyone who comes to Him with an open heart without any exception, and your own case will not be different. You shall not return empty-handed. You and your family shall return thoroughly satisfied with the blessings you need in Jesus’ mighty name!!
2. Whatever we put in the hands of Jesus always multiplies. To practically put anything in the hands of Jesus means that we surrender control and put Jesus in charge because we trust Him, and from that moment we become obedient followers of the voice of Jesus (His Word). Those of us who are prepared to trust Jesus with our marriage, ministry, family, plans, business, relationships and finances by allowing His Word to govern our lives from now shall experience multiplied blessings in every area of our lives. We should stop doing things our way and start doing everything His way.
3. Your talents or gifts are God’s deposits in your life to enable you live the abundant life on the earth. So, it is necessary to discover and put them to work so that you can become your very best version in life. Do not ignore your divine gifts or talents, you should invest your time, energy and resources in developing, optimizing and deploring them because they were divinely given to you to enable you become the person God created you to become in life.
4. Learn to praise God more as a lifestyle because genuine praise always attracts and secures the presence of God necessary to overcome challenges and successfully navigate the right way to your large place in life and ministry. Praise God, especially in moments of pain, so that you can turn that pain into gain. Praise is better than complain or despair. Heaven and earth respond favourably to those who praise God genuinely (Ps.67:5-7). Chains and limitations are destroyed through the combined power of prayer and praise (Acts 16:25). Praise is a scriptural strategy for winning the battles of life. Learn to praise the LORD at all times and in every situation (Ps.34:1)
5. The most important ‘multiplied blessings’ God wants to see in our lives are the fruit of souls. Those who win souls regularly are wise (Prov.11:30). It is the key to unlocking every other kind of blessing in Christ. As a born-again child of God, you are a branch in Christ that is expected to bring forth much fruits (John 15:1-2, 5-8, 16). Those who remain unfruitful will be cut off, while those who are productive are preserved and perfected to bear more fruits. May your own life become more productive from now in Jesus' mighty name!! Shalom!!
