From the Prophet's desk

Every Good, Perfect; Free, Large and Full gift comes from above. If we can just realise that we are a gift to the Body of Christ. Now God so loved the world that He sent His best gift and in this gift was Life and Light. He came into the world but the world did not recognize Him. The tragedy of our day is that the church lost the ability to recognize the gift of God in people.

Jesus speaks to a woman at a well and says "If you only knew the gift that is before you"
We know nothing about drawing from the gift of God in people! The church has an inability to draw out living water from the source because we are stuck at the well. We are unable to go beyond methodology and tap into revelation because we keep looking outward instead of inward ! The greatest confrontation of the Church lies in it's past and present and they can't seem to define their future. For the woman at the well, her past was too prominent because of her five mistakes and yet she is presently busy making another one !

If you loose your appreciation for the gift, the gift loses it's ability to touch you !
It was John the Baptist that said "behold the Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world" and they took offence instead of discerning the gift. This was the Son of God "Emmanuel" and could do no miracles in His home town because they could not discern the gift!

It is such a tragedy to shower the Church with gift heaped upon gift if the church has never been taught to Discern the gift; Respect the gift; Honor the gift; Appreciate the gift.

If this doesn't happen at home, it won't happen in Church !
You are a gift to the body of Christ, discern the gift in those around you.

FROM THE PROPHETS DESK

We are currently busy with an awesome series on Honor. We must all show it as much as we need it ! Honor must be shown as much as received. I believe the element of honor is missing from the top of our nation to the man on the street. We have no regard for any institution, person or even entity, It's time that God restores Honor among His people for one another. One of the greatest ways to show Honor is to discern the gift in those among us. Discern the gift in your children and family members. Discern the gift in your neighbour and those around you. The moment you respect and discern their gift, Honor will flow automatically. We have preached on Honor for more than two months already. You must get hold of some of these sessions by purchasing it on dvd or cd. Get it, it will Transform Your World !
