Pure Worship

Pure Worship This is a community of people that are ready to give God the worship he deserves irrespective of there situation. It holds every 3rd Sunday of the month.

Worship is an expression of awe and love to God who does much more than we deserve. Everyone worship something because we were created by a higher being for the main purpose of worship. Worship opens up another world, a spirit world more real than the one you and I live in. Nothing should stop you from getting into His presence to worship.The only thing God cannot give to HIMSELF is worship, and a

ll that Satan is looking for desperately on earth today is what God has placed on you as a demand. John 4: 23-24

Lucifer now known as Satan was one of the archangels mentioned in the scriptures. His role was very different just as cherubims cover the mercy seat of the Ark of Covenant. Lucifer was established by God as the angel of worship. His ministry surrounded the heart of God as he was created to dwell eternally in the throne room of heaven, in the very presence of God, He was created perfect! Nothing ordinary or plain about his appearance – adorned with gold and precious stones, even referred
Picture from Goggle
to as the Sun of the morning, Lucifer was a step above other archangels. He understood the ways of God. Lucifer excelled in ability, beauty and Power, yet he wanted more – WORSHIP. And so, he was ‘evicted’ from heaven. (Ezekiel 28: 14-19)

Friends, God reveled Himself to me and mandated me to take up this task of restoring back the act of praise and worship back to our communities, cities, towns and nations. Act 15: 16-17, I Chronicle 16: 29, Psalms 29: 2, John 4: 24, Revelation 3:9; 5:14
It is not about your church but rather about Christ. Join me, partner with us as we go round the world fulfilling the great commission. Matthew 28: 18-20, with this message – PURE WORSHIP. Pure Worship holds at 4pm, every third Sunday of the Month at:

GOD IS WATCHING WITH TENDER CARE...

Roman.8:28.And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.

The devil is fighting You, not because you are weak but because you are strong...

God's plan was to make Moses a national deliverer, but Moses did have it rough at the beginning, even as a 3 month old child. His mother put him in an ark and laid him by the river banks. When Pharaoh's daughter saw the ark and opened it, she saw baby Moses weeping. It was a season of discomfort for him. It was a season of pain for him. But the reality of that season couldn't undo the plan God had for him. Even though he was subjected to a season of tears as a baby, He eventually turned out to be the deliverer God had ordained him to be.

Friend, I like you to know that, as you journey on in the fulfillment of destiny, there would be temporary seasons of pain. Every great star is a product of huge scars. This isn't the time to despair or throw in the towel, it is the time to be tough. It takes the "tough" to overcome the "rough". Those who keep going always get there. You need to prove to that situation that you are stronger and tougher than it could ever be.

Every mantle Joseph wore was used against him, but it was always a sign of promotion. How you handle the attack will determine what you possess in the next season. Often times, upgrades start with what looks like a downgrade. But, a downgrade handled with the right attitude will always produce an upgrade!
Joseph was allowed to go to the pit and then the prison solely to get him to the palace. God had it all figured out. From prison he became a very influential leader in Egypt. It seemed like it will never happen. One moment all doors were closed to his dreams, then all of a sudden, series of event catapulted him from prison to the palace.
Don't ever under estimate what God can do with your life.

God is committed to bringing you into the fullness of His Plan for your life, but you need to remain tough. Through the thick and the thin, Moses defied all odds and fulfilled destiny, and you also can...and you will!!

God bless you

A LITTLE EXTRA

Matthew. 25:1 "Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom.
2 Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
3.For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them,
4 but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps.

"Some life events don't get started on time; you must carry enough spiritual oil to address delay along the line"

Ten qualified candidates started the journey early enough,to get married. but only five of them finished well. They waited and waited until their lamps went down.

Five had enough Oil to participate in an event that will begin on time,
While the other five had exta Oil to be part of an event that's taking off at any time of the day..

The foolish ones wanted oil from the wise ones, forgetting that spiritual preparedness cannot be shared.

You must pass the endurance test to stand out....

It takes interest to start anything BUT commitment and grace to finish strong.

150 believers were in the upper room, but at the end of the day , only 120 received the Holy Spirit baptism, 380 couldn't pass the endurance test. Couldn't wait till the appointed time.

Don't give in to short term thinking like the five foolish virgins with not enough oil to go all the way and the 380 believers that couldn't make it.
Keep your eyes on the finish line and be prepared to finish strong.

Our challenge as people of faith is how to synchronise our faith with God's schedule. God will not mark the appointed time on our time table but in His own plan for us, .
Seeking for help when it was too late wouldn't have been necessary for the five foolish virgins after all they arrived early enough at the venue with oil in their lamps,yet couldn't make it to the appointed time
On time yet referred to as being late on the final analysis.
"Lord Help us"

Start praying the right way. When you understand that God's objective is to make you more like Christ, you 'll start praying fewer ' comfort' me prayers and more 'conform' me ones. Instead of asking why me, Lord? you'll ask , What do you want me to learn, Lord?

Happy New Month
God bless you.

KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.

Deuteronomy 24:16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.

Human judgement does not go beyond the guilty individual. But divine judgement extends to next generation .

Parents evil conducts as well as wise Godly choices made has consequences.. While the physical and social consequences of sin may persist as far as great grand children. God's spiritual rewards for love, obedience, and faithfulness go on to a thousand generation. Halleluyah!

Deuteronomy 7:9 Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;

No man live and die for himself

Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:

Generational curse or generational blessing... It's your choice.
Esther wouldn't have had to deal with the evi plot of Haman the agagite, a descendant of King Agag, whom King Saul failed to kill five hundred years ago, who now vowed to hang all the Israelite before God turned his plan against him

May be someone in the past opened the wrong door and the consequences has been passed on

Matthew 22:25-26 “Now there were seven brothers among us. The first married and died, and having no children left his wife to his brother. 26.So too the second and third, down to the seventh .

The family tree is cursed, therefore untimely death was flowing down the family tree

De activate the wrong genes. Somebody in your past opened the wrong door, made a wrong choice . The fact that you are dealing with a bad situation does not make you a bad person.
Choose life so your children won't have to deal with it

The grudges, bitterness, enmity and un forgiveness was passed down to you and already at the verge of been passed down through you. Why not pass down the fruit of the spirit along with genuine faith for a better and a more glorious tomorrow.

Your believe does not make you a better person, your behaviour does.

Have a blessed day.
Pst. Joseph Ayodele.

"ALL I NEED IS YOU, LORD."

1 Samuel 17:50 So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David

David used a slingshot to defeat Goliath. He didn’t have the armor, the training, the kind of experience Goliath had.. But a slingshot with God's favor is more powerful than a whole army without it.
You are not that talented yet God's favour can place you ahead of all others

Even if you’re in the desert, because of the distinction on your life, you’re going to flourish.

Isaac was in Egypt at a time when there was famine in the land. Only the wells dug by Isaac had water, only his land was productive

Genesis 26:12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.

Your location doesn’t determine your blessing; what God put in you determines the blessing.
The wise men did not give the Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh to king Herod when they visited him but rather continued their journey until they got to the manger and presented the gifts to Jesus.

When He called you out, set you apart and breathed His life into you, He marked you for favor. Wherever you go, the blessing goes. You may not have the perfect job,the right kind of connection, that in any way goes not limit God. People don’t control your destiny, God does. (Think of Joseph in the pit and as a faithful slave in prison)

Keep being at your best and honoring God, and He’ll cause you to stand out.

As long as you stay close to God, you’re connected to a supply line that will never run dry. Even when the economy is slow, clients will find you; even when the medical report says it's not possible, like the case of the woman with the issue of blood for 12 years, remember, you’re connected to a supply line filled with healing, wholeness,. When you don’t see how you can accomplish your dreams, don’t get discouraged. You have a supply line filled with good breaks, with ideas, with divine connections.

“…hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls.” —Hebrews 6:19

When you live from a place of hope, nothing will be able to move you! No matter what winds or waves you face in life, there is hope: God is in control and has only good plans for you to succeed and prosper.

God bless you.

DARK PLACES

Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls
to the ground and dies, it remains only a single
seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.JOHN
12:24.
Seeds must be planted in the soil- in the dark place. A seed cannot germinate in the light. There are seeds in you that can only be released in a dark place

The dark place is a prerequisite for stepping into
the fullness of your destiny. We all have gone
through things that we don’t understand. Lay
offs, relationships break ups... We all have to go
through dark places. It’s easy to get discouraged,
give up on your dreams throw in the trowel and
settle there.But God uses the dark places. They’re
part of His divine plan.
In scripture people that did something significant
went through a dark place. After killing a man
Moses was on back side of the desert for 40
years before he led God’s people out of Egypt.
Without the dark place Moses never would've
held up the rod and parted the Red Sea.

Elijah was so depressed he wanted to die yet
he's one of the heroes of faith.
David had an affair with a married woman and
had her husband killed, yet he was called a man
after God’s heart.
God doesn't send the difficulties but He uses
them. In the dark places is where we really grow.
The prodigal son came to his senses in the dark place
In the dark places you pray more like Jonah in the belly of the fish. And draw
closer to God. You reevaluate your priorities. You
may not realize it but in the dark places you're
being blessed. The dark places help you realign
your priorities. When you go through enough dark
places you don’t get upset over the little things.
You're not easily offended. You’ve got a
backbone made of steel. Dark places toughen you
up. Don't complain about the dark times if
you do the longer you remain there. There are
blessings in the dark places. God can do
something that He only does in that fire of
affliction. God uses the dark places.

Have a victorious day.
God bless you

"BEYOND YOUR STRENGHT"

Genesis 13:14-15.
And the Lord said unto Abram, after Lot was separated from him, Lift up now you eyes , and look from where you are , Northwards, and Southward and Eastward, and westward:
15, For all the land which thou seest , to the will I give it and to the seed forever.

How far a man can see does not set a limit for what God can and will do; it only set a limit for how much of what God is doing that man will be a part of.

How far can you see?
Abraham was able to see as far to the North, East, South and West but yet he couldn't see as much as God has to offer. God had to add so much more later to him when He said to him" In blessings I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the Heaven.(Genesis 22:17) Abraham couldn't have seen as far,and as much as that merely looking with his eyes.

Do you see beyond where your eyes can take you?
Do you know beyond what your mind can dare to grasp?

There is a seeing that is after the flesh and there is that which is of and in the Spirit. ..Lot lifted up his eyes and beheld all the plain of Jordan , that it was well watered every Where before the Lord destroyed S***m and Gomorrah..( Genesis 13:10)

All that Lot could see with his eyes was good for his flesh ( business)but it wasn't good for his soul...at the end, all that he laboured for was destroyed by fire and his beloved wife couldn't make it out alive as well. What a loss!

There is a knowing---a KNOWING----deeper than the depths of your mind......Peter in Luke chapter 5 expressed his frustration to Jesus ,that all night he has done all that is humanly, physically and technically possible with his friends to catch fishes in this water but to no avail..But he said to Jesus.. " I could see that you have the knowledge that is deeper than the depth of my mind." At your word I will let down my net again" ..The resultt this time was explosive ..fish all over the place enough to go round his friends. Glory!!!!!

There's a working, yes I tell you, a working beyond the strength of your hands. The only thing Moses did was that he lifted up The rod before the red sea, the rest was the Lord's doing.... When there was shortage of wine during a wedding reception at Canna in Galilee, water was fetched into six barrels , But miraculously
Wine was served ..Halleluyah!!!

This is the day to receive new eyes---a day to see, to know, and to work.
This is the day to see that there be operations by the Spirit...a thickening of the clouds
This is the day to know, that nothing is static...nothing is standing still A day to know that the waves of the glory are roaring and will soon light upon your shores
This is the day to work...for your hands are not of flesh and blood. There's a kindled fire...to burn and to purify...flowing through your hands.

How far can you see?
This is the day to see...to know...and to work.
Be strong and be of good courage.

Have a miraculous day
God bless you
Pst. Joseph Ayodele.

SO RIGHT YET SO WRONG.

2 Samuel 6:6 And when they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah put out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen stumbled.
7 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah, and God struck him down there because of his error, and he died there beside the ark of God.

There are times you mean right yet things still go wrong.

Uzzah tried to steady the ark of covenant in the new cart carrying it from Gibeah to Jerusalem and God smote him for his error and he died.

Sometimes God orders some falls, some slips, some set back, some confusion to reveal Himself, (Remember Jonah...).

The ark according to God's divine plan must be carried by four levites on their shoulders and not in a cart.Exo.25:14,

The truth is, man made cart will always mess up.

Your own way of doing things to please God or to suite your personality with the mindset that God understands, will always back fire.

David at this point knew all was not well and decided to leave the ark in the house nearby belonging to Obededom who was a Gittite. Gittites have no business with the ark but God blessed him because He will bless whoever opens the door for Him and more importantly he cared for the ark .
There is great blessing in caring.

At last David, accepted that he was wrong in the way he carried the ark the first time and decided to change his plan to please God and not himself or anybody else this time.
He also Changed his pace.No longer in a hurry but slowly on foot and offered sacrifices after six steps all along the way
Finally, he changed his position and led the congregation after the ark dancing, he striped off his cloths and threw himself out to God.............Immediately
God"s glory was all over the place

Today you also need to change your plan to please God.
Slow down, take each step with praises in your mouth and take the lead giving yourself fully to God.

Psalms. 37:23 The steps of a man are established by the LORD, when he delights in his way;

God bless you.

DIAMOND IN THE SKY

1Corinthians.15:41.There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for star differs from star in glory.

Take a look at where the star of a child newly born in a manger was spotted by wealthy wise men in the East.
A unique shining star standing out in glory among all other stars in the sky.

Jesus did not blame Mary and Joseph for having such a poor start, he did not choose them God did. And that settles it.
Am sure you did not arrive here through a manger. Jesus did and because of that nobody believed the Shepherds sharing the news of his birth because His birth place was bad enough to explain why He cannot be great in life.

Truth is, whether they believed the shepherds or not it does not change what God had said about him.
Isaiah.9:6...For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
If you are yet to see His promises come to past in your life, be patient.
Jesus began as a nobody and all the way becoming the most important person of all times that ever lived and still very much alive today and for evermore......glory!!!!!
Jesus knew His journey started from God, just like yours and only arrived here through his parents .So you are what God says you are .Period!!
Jesus the King of kings, was, not born as a king one neither did he lived like one.
I see your star shinning out gloriously this week among all others in Jesus name
God bless you

REFLECTIONS
Luke.9:57.As they were going along the road, someone said to him, "I will follow you wherever you go."
58.And Jesus said to him, "Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head."
59.To another he said, "Follow me." But he said, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father."
60.And Jesus said to him, "Leave the dead to bury their own dead. But as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God."
61.Yet another said, "I will follow you, Lord, but let me first say farewell to those at my home."
62.Jesus said to him, "No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God."

The world is full of a mixture of people. We need to know which hand to shake and which hand to hold on to.

The first person seeing Jesus so anointed and carrying so much grace, imagined the kind of wealth at his command .But Jesus quickly caution him , saying to him " anointing does not translate to wealth, neither can wealth quantify the measure of anointing in a man life..

The second person said, tradition first and then am ready. Jesus said tradition won't and can't get you ready for this kind of assignment.

To the third persons Jesus said, you look ready, but can't go far because you depend so much on people's approval..

Often we are let down by the most trusted people and loved by the unexpected ones, many leaves us when we need them most while few stay with us even when we ask them to leave. Quite a number make us cry for things we haven't done while others ignore our flaws and just see our smile.

Never blame anyone in your life. Good people give you happiness. Bad people give you experience. The worst people give you a lesson. And the best people give you memories.

I have come to realize that sometimes you need to know your place in people’s lives because you might get hurt if you expect too much.
You can't chose the people around you but you can change the people you chose to be around.
God finally gave up on King Saul, not because He doesn't care for him anymore but because Saul no longer cared. Every failed attempt on David's life, followed by shedding crocodile tears was a cover up to reload his gun fun another shot.

Sometimes giving someone a second, third chance is like giving them extra, bullets for their gun because they missed you the first time.

Finally, choose friends with caution. Plan your future with purpose. Frame your life with faith.

God bless you

FINISHING STRONG
John.17:4. I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do.

Finishing means staying on the job until it’s done. It’s about accountability and action, because when you are on the right track you will get run over if you just sit there. When you don't focus on something, you don’t finish it. Jesus was the greatest finisher of all time. At age twelve, He told His parents, ' l must be about my father's business. Later He told His disciples, l must work the works of Him who sent Me( John.9:4). Facing the cross, He said, 'For this cause was I born( Jon.18:37). And before He died, He said it is finished! (John.19:30) Then having earn the right to become our advocate with God, He went back to heaven and sat down (Hebrew.10:12) Mission accomplished!

If you desire to finish strong consider this ten sentences:

I won't wait for others to take the first step.
If it is to be, it’s up to me.
If not me, who? If not now, when?
Let me have a go at it.
I will not pass the buck.
You can count on me.
It is my job.
Just do it!
I will.
And the most important word; “Me”.

You become a contributor instead of a passive observer, others look to you for leadership. You gain a reputation as a problem solver. You experience the satisfaction that comes from getting things done. There is less anger, frustration and helplessness, which in turn leads to better physical health.

God bless you

WEEP NO MORE
John.11:33.When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in his spirit and greatly troubled. 34.And he said, "Where have you laid him?" They said to him, "Lord, come and see."
35.Jesus wept.

Crying is how the heart speaks when you can't explain the pain you feel.

Ecclesiastes.3:4.a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

Isaiah 30:19. For a people shall dwell in Zion, in Jerusalem; you shall weep no more. He will surely be gracious to you at the sound of your cry. As soon as he hears it, he answers you.

Psalms.30:5. For his anger is but for a moment, and his favour is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning.

It's your month of a new beginning...Its a new dawn...
I speak into the depth .of your life.

Isaiah.60:1.Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD has risen upon you.

God bless you
