SEVEN FACTS ABOUT YOUR SMALL PLACE (SMALL BEGINNING)

1. Small places are platforms for God to work on you and watch you grow.

2. It is in your small place that you truly begin to appreciate and value things. There your love and passion become genuine.

3. It is in your small place that your intention becomes clear. Everyone's intention truly should be questioned. We often want Big things because of Self. The true test of your calling is in your genuine passion for those you have been called to; each one of them.

4. It is in your small place that God builds trust with you.

5. Your affinity for " _small things"_ indicates your genuine heart for ministry/calling. If your heart is too far from the small, and you can't identify with it at all, there is a question on your genuineness (Jesus was a "One-man" person who cared for the individual as much as he cared for the crowd).

6. God prepares you at your small place because He wants to be able to predict you at your big place.

7. While diligently trying to find alignment (the plumbline) in your small beginning, you attract the operation of the Seven spirits of God into your life and Calling (Zechariah 4:10, Isaiah 11:1). This is why God doesn't intend to skip any class with you.

God is not interested in your showmanship, He is interested in your workmanship.

Public Rebuke by Pastor Poju Oyemade

Paul's rebuke of Peter at Antioch and how it affects us and the "Christian culture" today. The story of two cities, Jerusalem and Antioch. (Part 2 of a four-part series) It is clear that doctrines are never built out of the experiences of people in the Scriptures no matter who they are. It was only Jesus who was sinless and outside of Him one cannot just "copy" actions without having a sound theological foundation for it. Paul made it clear in his writings the nature of this principle. For example, the early Church practised at a stage having all things in common among them, without any form of discrimination, they made sure all had from the material substance of others. We, however, read later Paul teaching on the essence of work and encouraging believers not to enable laziness among the brethren. He said 2 Thessalonians 3:10-11 "For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat. For we hear that t

EASTER MEDITATION CONTINUED_

JOHN 11:25-26 *“…Yet He shall live…”* Where God sends death, He is sure to follow up with Life. It is a promise. You can take it to the bank. God shall not fail at it. He has never failed at it. This is a more assertive statement. For God, Death is always a means to Life! Death, in God’s work, is never an end. Instead, it is a means to an end. Watch out! If God sends Death towards an area of your life, it is so that He can follow it up swiftly with Life. Though your business may die, or anything for that matter, if it is God at work, it shall yet live. For Death will afford God the platform to filter that which is of Adam and Self in it. And to do a definite reconstruction by which a large way is paved for the life of Christ; that which the bible calls - “ _THE LIFE_ ”, to flow through it. That is the Resurrection! God has a super plan in mind; to re-imburse you with a resurrected version; an upgraded thing. Do not be misled about the scheme of things. Redemption works in this

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ. Ephesians 1:3 Rest In The Finished Work Jesus has finished the work of saving and redeeming us (John 19:30), and when we believed in Jesus as our Savior, God placed us in Jesus’ finished work. Today, all we need to do is rest in the finished work. We rest in the finished work by simply believing that all the work to save us and keep us eternally forgiven, righteous and blessed is finished. This is important because there are many voices today telling us to work for God’s approval and acceptance before He will bless us—as if the work isn’t finished. My friend, the moment you try to finish what Christ has already finished, you fall into unbelief. So let go of your self-efforts and simply rest in the truth that whatever the blessing or success you need, you already have it in Christ Jesus through His finished work. Believe it, rest in it an
