*Receive It*
*Today’s Scripture*
_Ruth 2:12, NIV_
May the LORD repay you for what you have done. May you be richly rewarded by the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.
*Today’s Word*
A young Moabite widow named Ruth moved to Bethlehem to take care of her elderly mother-in-law, Naomi. To survive, she went into the harvest fields every day to pick up whatever wheat the workers missed. God brought her to the attention of Boaz, the owner of the fields, who began to help her, then fell in love with her. God’s blessing was on Ruth, and she and Naomi went from poverty and disappointment to abundance and joy.
Like Ruth, you may have been through disappointments, but things are about to turn in your favor. Quit telling yourself all the reasons for why you can’t receive the blessing of God as Ruth did. It’s not going to happen just by your ability, your talent, or your connections. It’s going to happen by the Spirit of the living God. He’s breathing on your life right now. His favor is surrounding you. There are breakthroughs already en route-healing, promotions, contracts, the right people are already headed your way. Now don’t talk yourself out of it. Receive His blessing.
*Prayer for Today*
Lord , thank You that You know every hardship and difficult situation I have faced and will face. Thank You that You have more blessings and favor for me than I can dream. I believe that Your favor is surrounding me and breakthroughs are on the way. In Jesus’ Name, Amen. Have a blessed Wednesday

We sincerely apologize for the late posting....we are still in Holy Week
Yesterday's service 05 April 2023
Preacher: T Nkomo
Scripture : Mark 14:3 - While He was in Bethany, reclining at the table in the home of Simon the L***r, a woman came with an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, made of pure nard . She broke the jar and poured the perfume on his head.

Message: Jesus was being prepared for his burial. He knew the time had come and this woman had to anoint him in order to prepare Him for the agony ahead . We all have God given gifts, a gift is a gift and it cannot be taken away from you cause it's yours. But if that gift has no anointing it means there is no Holy Spirit, you are only operating on the gift. For every assignment there are preparations made before the final act...Christ had to be anointed in order to be able to complete the difficult task ahead him which was the cross. He wouldn't have done it alone, He needed to be anointed first and that's the preparation. Without God's anointing, your gift is just a gift and you wont transform the lives of people. People will remain the same because there's no God in it...some have left the church simply because the anointing of God is not there. We go to church because we are used to it , because we know what must be done but God is no longer there thats why we have fruitless meetings because there's no God in it. Let us repent and let God anoint us so that when people see us may see light, change and transform. Amen

Good morning brethrens in Christ. We apologize for not posting on yesterday's service, no power and network is bad and no word from the municipality. Here's an update on yesterday's service.
Date : 04 April 2023
Preacher : J Hlanze
Scripture: Mathew 21 ver 19 : And seeing a fig tree by the road . He came to it and found nothing on it , " Let no fruit grow on you ever again. " immediately the fig tree withered away.

Message: Jesus had spent the night in Bethany and before that it was the triumph entry into Jerusalem where he drove out people who were misusing the temple out of it . He then was hungry and came across a fig tree, which did not bear any fruit. He looks at the tree...starts cursing it and says it shall never bear any fruit. It is so with us ..as a tree we should contain the fruits of the Holy Spirit love ,joy , patience, forgiveness ect..we should not be empty vessels. People must see us and be healed , they must be filled , they must be able to see God because we are His reflection. Our faith in God should be strong, not weak , otherwise we will be cursed and nothing good will come from us . With the fruits we bear, it should be of love , joy , perseverance, patience, compassion ect...if we produce gossip, jealousy, hypocrisy, witchcraft, evil then we are no good and we are cursed.

Amen

Holy Week
Preacher : W Gudu
Opening Hymn: 278 Xhosa
Scripture: Mathew 21 ver 12-14 : Then Jesus went into the temple of God and drove out all those who bought and sold in the temple and overturned the tables of the money changers and seats of those who sold doves . And He said to them : " It is written , My house shall be called a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves. Then the blind and the lame came to Him in the the temple and He healed them.

Message: The Temple is the where the Lord dwells and hoovers. It's where people go in search for spiritual help..but people have turned Gods temple into a tuck shop: where they go about they business that is not of God . Jesus entered and told them enough is enough, this is my Father's house of prayer, and he started beating them and driving them out , then the lame came in ,the sick came in and He healed them . Those who were lost were saved. Our bodies is where God dwells, but we have turned to prostitution, substance abuse, being gluttons and doing all things that is not of God . Our bodies should be dedicated to God , and not live in darkness...Jesus enters and he sweeps everything away, everything that is nor of God...and it is so ,our bodies are the house of prayer..where everyone who needs healing will looks into , we are the reflection of God!

Closing Hymn: 214 Sotho
Benediction
