MINISTRY IS NOT THE SAME AS INDUSTRY says Bishop David Oyedepo as he ministers at the International ministers conference on “Fundamentals of our Journey into Next Levels”
Conference Theme: Next Levels
You don't know how to thank God, your prayer is too much. Thank Jesus for His grace upon
your life
Don't you ever remove the 's' behind Next Levels
Deuteronomy 28:1
Every vision unveils the ultimate but wisdom locates the steps Ex 23:30, Deut 7:22
It's a race of patience, little by little
What you are not committed to learn, you can never know.
God is not happy seeing us in one cornered place over the years Deut 2:3
What are the things we must come to know in our journey into our Next Levels
* Prov 4:18 we are justified freely by the blood of Jesus Romans 5:9. Our light is ordained to shine more and more through justification by the blood of Jesus. our redemption entitles us to continuous change of levels. You will never be stranded again (Amen).
* Nothing shines in darkness but light. Our next levels is guaranteed by increasing revelation. Increasing revelation empowers for next levels of experience.
You can't change position without light.
Explanation doesn't change position, it's revelation that does
Isaiah 58:8
There is a wall of difference between information and revelation
Revelation stirred the revolution we are experiencing in this commission
Ministry is not same as industry
Applied revelation is what matters
The value of revelation is in it's application
Everything that empowers for next levels is at your disposal
My friend Creflo (Dollar) said everything in this church works like computer
Order is not an enemy of the anointing
You can't flow in revelation until you learn how to seek the Lord in prayers and fasting
* The anointing of the Holy Spirit, Empowerment of the Holy Spirit Luke 4:14
Increasing anointing empowers for increasing change of levels. Eze 47:1-5
Anointing is in levels
If you're not empowered,the principles can't change your levels
In the name of Jesus, may your quest for increasing empowerment never go off
In this world of darkness, if you're not empowered, you will be messed up
Titus 1:9-10
Every mouth against your ministry will be shut after the same manner
Ps 63:1, Luke 5:37-38, Prov 1:23
Carnality is on the increase in the Body of Christ
You cannot fake power but you have two prices to pay: living a righteous life and commitment to prayers & fasting
* Force of Dedication Mark 4: 31-32. There are many 'unsown' Ministers in the Body of Christ.
You cannot be truly sold out to God and not stand out in life
Sold out to God, you are bound to stand out in life
Serving God dedicatedly is the guarantee for honorable ministry
No laying of hands is substitute for obedience
If you will not be dedicated, you won't be distinguished
* 2 Tim 2:19-21. The foundation remains: Depart from iniquity
PS 11:3 let's deepen the fear of God in us
The foundation of righteousness
Separate your private resources from church resources
1 Tim1:12
As long as the fear of God remains in your heart, you will keep faring well
