*FRIDAY SURMON*

Topic: *God will turn our Enemy's Evil plans to be our Goodness(Gen50:20)*
Majority of us are aware about Joseph's story (son of Jacob) from *Gen chps37-50* ;where because of him being overloved by their father as well as his dreaming gift, his brothers started to feel envy/jealous,hating him even to a point of planning his death(37:4,8,11,19-20,21-28). God made his dreams fulfilled after his family migrated to Egypt (Chps42-47), where after the death of their father his brothers entered into great fear thinking Joseph will now repay the evil plans they did him initially..vs15. Joseph inturn responded bringing out our *Today's Topic* Gen50:20,"But as for you ,you *meant evil against me;but God meant(turned) it for good*,in order to bring it about as it is this day,to save many people alive(Kjv).

*I DECLARE & DECREE:*
That every evil set against you,i, our families,the church,our nation and entire world, be it *evilness* against our *HEALTH* (throughdeadly ailments like covid-19 disaster), *WEALTH* (Economy recession),or else *SPIRITUALLY* (current church santuary curfews),etc will now be MEANT(TURNED) FOR OUR GOODNESS in Jesus mighty name.

Jesus assures this in *3John2*; "Beloved , I wish above all things that thou may *PROSPER(increase in wealth)* and be in *HEALTH*,even as *thy SOUL prospereth* (increasing Spiritually)-Kjv.

By Apostle Vincent

Good afternoon noon church. Hope you are all safe in Jesus Christ. I cannot afford to forget u in my daily prayers
*Lunch hour sermon*
*Topic: power and authority*

When you receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, God gives you authority through the name of Jesus. “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.” (John 14:12-14).

Authority became yours when you became a child of God, and every believer has authority. It’s not something you earned or deserved; it was given by grace. Authority is part of the foundation upon which our faith rests.

Authority is the channel through which power operates. You cannot have authority without power to back it, but neither can power work without a channel of authority.

*God’s Power*

In order for you to be confident in your God-given authority, you must first have a solid trust in the awesome power of God which backs up that authority.

The Apostle Paul was well aware of the importance of believers understanding and trusting God’s power when he prayed the following prayer for us in Ephesians 1:15-19, “Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers: that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power.”

*power* is ability and might Ephesians 1:19 could be translated, “And what is the exceeding greatness of his ability and might toward us who believe.” ( God’s power is demonstrated through believers

Hebrews 1:10 says God created the earth with His hands, and Psalm 8:3 tells us He created the universe with His fingers. Obviously, the arm is much stronger than the hand or the fingers, and so God displayed much greater strength when He redeemed us

Romans 8:11 says, “But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwells in you.”

The power of God, the Holy Spirit – the arm of the Lord – raised Jesus from the dead. And anybody who believes in Jesus Christ has that same dunamis power, the Holy Spirit, living and working in them!

Meditate on the *power*(ability and might) of God. His power is embodied in the Holy Spirit, who lives in you. Knowing the Holy Spirit lives in you is the rock-solid foundation of your understanding and security about your authority as a believer. Shalom brethren.
Stay safe

*Today's sermon*
*Topic:The name JESUS CHRIST*
Good morning all and praise the Lord. Hope these greetings finds u well kept by the almighty God.
Today we are reading from the book of Philippians 2:9-11 New International Version (NIV)
9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
* The name JESUS is derived from Hebrew name *Yeshua* meaning to deliver, to rescue or to save
* Human beings get names from family members but Jesus got his name from heaven.
* Jesus was faithful to the task given to Him ( To bring back man to God through salvation) humbling Himself and even becoming obedient to point of death. He gave himself to sins of many
* Now God exhausts Him by by giving power to the name *Jesus Christ* and setting His name to be above all other names
* Now *Jesus Christ* being the name that is above all other names on earth, in Heaven and also under the earth there is no situation that is above this name
* Sickness like Malaria, Diabetes, coronavirus etc are Just names of diseases. Situations like poverty, Joblessness, broken marriages are just names
At the mention of the name name Jesus they all rendered powerless.
*Demons and all powers of darkness bow at mention of this name Jesus Christ
* We need to practise mentioning the name of Jesus everyday Everytime, in every situation .
* The name of Jesus is a strong tower where the righteous run to and are safe( proverbs 18:10)
Blessed day all and stay safe
In Jesus mighty name.
Shalom...
