MESSAGE TITLE: WHY MUST WE BE COMMITTED TO THE INGATHERING OF SOULS INTO THE CHURCH
---
When the purpose of a thing is not known, abuse is inevitable. There is nothing that motivates action like understanding of purpose. Now, why must we be committed to the ingathering of souls into the church?
the realisation of the inheritance of our new converts.
There is no doubt, according to scriptures that everyone who is a child of God becomes a part of the family of God. This is why we are told in scripture that we become part of the citizens of the household of God (Eph. 2:19). But to take delivery of the inheritance of that household, there is a requirement to ensure that we are located in the house of God (Obad. 1:17). Until you are planted in God, You may never be able to take hold of your inheritance with God.
DO WE HAVE TO BE PLANTED IN THE HOUSE OF GOD?
Church is the centre for illumination
The scripture makes us understand in Is. 2:1-3 and Psa. 73:17, that there is something about Zion that brings understanding. The saturated presence of God in Zion opens the eyes of men, and when the eyes of men are open to the word of God, it enables that individual to take delivery of their inheritance (Gen. 13:14).
It means, therefore, that it is the ability for any man to receive light or to be illuminated that determines their capacity to take delivery of their inheritance in Christ (Acts. 20:32 & 2 Pet. 1:3). Until people are able to gain access to the light of God’s word, they cannot gain access to their inheritance. That is why our new converts must be brought to the church (Hos. 4:6).
is the place of the teaching priest
One of the gifts of God to man is the teaching priests. According to 2 Chron. 15:3, all the calamities that were seen in Judah were traceable to these key things: For a long season, they were not with the true God, they were without a teaching priest and they were with the law. The teaching priests are vital requirements for one to access his/her inheritance (Is. 30:20-21).
Until your eyes see your teachers before you, you’ll not hear the word behind you. There are things you cannot understand until some men sent by God explain them to you (Acts. 8:26-35). Therefore, be admonished that the inheritance of our new converts, is at their mercy in being planted in zion and so, the job is never complete until they are truly planted.
DECLARATION
Lord, I receive grace to see our new converts being established in the house of God in the name of Jesus.
DECLARATIONS
I see the grace coming upon us to see the planting and establishment of each of our new converts in the name of Jesus.
JESUS IS LORD!
