Theme: The Wise Man

Minister: Daddy Kingsley N.
Topic: THE MIDNIGHT
Text: Matthew 25:1–13

Quickly, the word of the Lord coming to you, coming to me this hour is from Matt. 25:1–13; it says: "[1] Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. [2] And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. [3] They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: [4] But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. [5] While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. [6] And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. [7] Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. [8] And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. [9] But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. [10] And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. [11] Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. [12] But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. [13] Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh."

Tell somebody, there is midnight coming!

The midnight is a universal experience for all mankind. On our own continent, we have varying timeframes, but this midnight shall be universal.

What is this midnight? The midnight is an experience; it is a time when those who are seen being busy during the daytime will be seeing lifeless. When you're asleep and your energy is no longer there, that is the midnight experience. Such a time will come in the life of every man, but the message here today is that you have to prepare for it before it's danger comes.

Today's message is in line with the concluding RMF Provincial Convention, tagged THE WISE MAN. Who is the man here? They are regular believers and churchgoers all over the world, but the wise there make the difference—your preparation.

Look around you, people are now turning into emergency believers, they pray only when they have a problem, but as a wise man, do you prepare in prayer even before emergency times? Ten virgins were called, just like all men on Earth, but a midnight will come that will call forth and test your preparedness. Without preparation, midnight will come (Matt. 14:25).

Rev. 2:5, the lamp in the passage where we read represents a part of us in faith; your salvation will be in jeopardy if you're not prepared, Phil. 2:12. As believers, we must hold unto our salvation because the midnight experience will come and will not give you the time to fast, to pray, or to worship. How prepared you are today and now will guarantee your passage to eternal glory because it is what you work for that will sustain you.

The oil in the passage is the spirit of God (Rom. 8:14). Are you a believer or have you been saved, but the spirit of God is not in you? You can be saved, and the spirit of God is not yet activated in you (Matt. 24:12); it is this spirit that will sustain you at midnight, just grow more in the word of God.

The church is now a fun place for worldly things; if they take away that fun, will you still remain in the church for things of the spirit? Now that you have the strength to serve, change your ways and pursue God because the midnight comes when no man can work, Eph. 12:1.

I pray that everyone of us here will be fully prepared for the midnight in Jesus name.

The bible says before the virgins returned, the bridegroom had already arrived and shut the door; fools end up as victims, looking out for men to help them, but only the wise prepare for midnight. Are you just a churchgoer that partakes in services for physical solutions? Are you the type that goes to fit in, finds faults or passes criticism and judgment?

Bow down your heads:
◽Say Father; help me. Help me to prepare for when the midnight cometh.
◽Say Father; whatever is in me that is classifying me among the foolish, please reorganize my life.
◽Say Father; let me not be a victim of the midnight experience.

Are you ready!!!
2days to demand from the heavens because IT IS YOUR APPOINTED TIME + a day to praise & dance to JEHOVAH like never before - join us tomorrow Wed. 28th & Thur. 29th by 6pm. and Fri. 30th. by 5pm.

You can't just come alone for this one oh because you can't be blessed alone this season. Invite someone!

You can't miss it, it's going to be explosive

Topic: KNOWING WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST - Part Two
Text: 1Peter 2:1-10

We are going to be looking at the topic 'Knowing Who You Are In Christ' the part 2 of what we started last Super Men's Sunday. Let's open our Bible to 1Pet. 2:1;4&9-10 "[1] Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings, [4] To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, [9] But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light. [10] Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy."

Glory to God, hallelujah!

When preparing this message last night, it was difficult for me because I attended a vigil and came back with some pains, this morning I was still dizzy but I've made a promise that anything that concerns God I will never joke with it, thanks be to God I'm strong now.

This is who you are in Christ, the confidence you have in Him makes you whom you are. Being on the solid rock of Christ, knowing yourself in Christ and being a Christian is beyond the physical (Eph. 6:12), so if you know who you are in Christ, you will never choose to sit on the fence.

At times, the things of life can drag you but make sure you're always in Christ. 1Cor. 15:56, positioning yourself in a lifestyle of sin can stop you from knowing Christ the way you should. Sin from what we know is beyond the picture we have, Gal. 5:19. When you call yourself a Christian and your faith is looking towards heaven, then your foundation is sure, it is on a solid rock which is Jesus.

If you want to be fine in life, then you must hold Jesus!

If you don't connect yourself as a Christian to anything Christ on earth, then you're a failure, it is better you go and join one of those cults; don't be on the neutral because both you and your generation can pay for it dearly.

Heb. 11:1&6; knowing Jesus, working with Him, and having Him in your life entails your faith; it takes Jesus to put you on a straight path in life although life's challenges will come but with Jesus you will be okay.

I don't have much message today, it's just to know your path in life, there are so much challenges but it is those who are in Christ that will have a shock absorber to face it all. It takes faith for you to move to your expected goal, it is not easy to serve God, it only requires your definition of Him in your life to get results.

Know Jesus, know yourself in Him! We all sin but how soon do you recognise Him when you go off track makes the difference.

•Let's bow down our heads as we have a reflection of our lives. Talk to Jesus to help you in amending your ways again.
