CELEBRATION CONVENTION:KNOWING THE HOLY SPIRIT

 

By the Grace of the Almighty God The Celebration Convention started on the 19th June 2013 as scheduled. We were blessed with a fine weather and an atmosphere filled with the Holy Spirit. The host pastor Rev Ernest Aryee after a brief profile of the guest preacher and how they know each other invited the anointed man of God to the pulpit.

Knowing the Holy Spirit was the title of the message preached by the man of God (Rev Eastwood Anaba), he explained the different types of lives that we live;social,economic,academic,marital,word and other aspects but the most important life to live is the spiritual life which is led by the HOLY SPIRIT. The Holy Spirit was promised to us by our Lord and master Jesus Christ.

Every man has his body,soul and the spirit. Right from birth you realise that we tend to develop the physical part of us more than we do for the spiritual. Just as developing our minds with certain aspects of education(be it law,science,accounting etc) increases our knowledge power in that area so it is with our spirit. We develop our spirit more in what we feed to it(prayer,fasting and reading the Bible). What are you feeding your spirit with, the spirit of the world or the spirit of God.

The word of God is that which awakens the spirit in us and as Christians we need the Holy Spirit; to teach, lead, comfort, guide, and help us.

Man cannot help us because;

1. Man is limited; limited in the power needed to help you

2. Man is mortal; make a promise to you today but can die tomorrow

3. Man is selfish; man will not make you greater than he has achieved

I pray that you desire the Holy Spirit in your life today. Try to develop your spirit with the word of God and listen to the Holy Spirit. God bless you

THE THREE TESTS OF LOYALTY

Hello once again,

As the month of May and mid-June is “Vision 527″ in my church, we have been using the book Leaders and Loyalty by Bishop Dag Heward-Mills our father. This books is a great enlightenment of leaders of all kinds to deal with loyalty in your organisation.

This Sunday 2nd June we tackled the 3 tests of loyalty, how to really tell if someone is loyal to you or not. The number test of loyalty as listed in the book is:

The Test of Distance: But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, AND NOT ONLY WHEN I AM PRESENT WITH YOU. Galatians 4:18

In the scripture above Paul had to exhort a branch of his church in Galatia to remain faithful even though he was not physically present with them. Most people(friends,relatives,employees) act as though they are loyal to you but in your absence say and do all sorts of things contrary to what they say or do in your presence. Any organisation that wants to expand can only do so if they have loyal employees who won’t only work when the boss is around but even when he is not around, because the boss cannot be everywhere at the same time.

This point is for you the ready to ask yourself if you are loyal to your friends,employer or anyone. Do you only work or pretend to be working when your boss is around or you work whole heartedly even when he is not around. Do we only pretend to be good wives and husbands when our spouses are present? What do we do with others when our partners are not around.

Can you pass the test of distance? God bless you and do visit this blog again.

Vision 527:

I Thessalonians 5:27 : I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren. KJV

I command you in the name of the Lord to read this letter to all the brothers and sisters. NLT

The Lighthouse Chapel International has chosen May and June to read the books of our father Bishop Dag to the congregation of the Lord.

Encounter With Jesus 3

Wow, what a night!

I just came back from a wonderful encounter night. Powerful Word, prayer and ministration under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Old and new curses and bonds were broken, and believe me the lives of all of us who went for this service will never be the same.

Prophet Philip, a visiting man of God was invited by our father Rev Ernest Aryee and we had a blast. 

Right after the word of God(Acts 1:1, Proverbs 10:12, Psalm 72:20) we had a powerful prayer session where demons and powers of idols were cursed and consumed by the Holy Ghost Fire. After which the man of God ministered powerfully under the anointing of the Holy Ghost. Prophecies were declared in the lives of God's children and I believe those lives are headed for great and wonderful destinations.

I personally am blessed and will never be same again. Thank You Jesus for your love, grace and blessings upon my life. If you are not born again I entreat you to be so that Jesus can become the Lord and Saviour of your life to free you from all bondage and most importantly so you can make it to HEAVEN.

God bless you and do visit this blog again.

Diligence

Date: 27^th January 2013

Preacher: Rev Ernest Aryee

Bible Verse:

Proverbs 10:4, Proverbs 12:24, Proverbs 21:5, Proverbs 22:29

Diligence is the persistent and relentless effort by an individual to solve a problem, to overcome difficulties and to accomplish great things.

This title is one of about nine positive traits that makes a person “he that hath” or rich or successful or wealthy. There are certain traits or attributes that successful persons have that makes them successful and diligence is one of such traits.

DILIGENCE is a character of never give up, never say die until the bones are rotten. If you have this spirit in you nothing can stop you from making it in life. A lot of the time people get discouraged by a few “no’s”. Just because ten people or even more think you will not make it in life by the path you have chosen does not mean you will not make it. Successful people never give up on their dream; they knock on the door until it’s opened to them. 

Do you know any successful man or woman? Well I’m pretty sure if you ask them their story, there would be a few “no’s” in there as well but that certainly did not stop them from pursuing what they believed in. Here is one story to help you by.

The Diligence of Abraham Lincoln

He failed in business in 1831

He was defeated for legislature in 1832

He experienced a second failure in business in 1833

He suffered nervous breakdown in 1836

He was defeated for Speaker in 1838

He was defeated for Elector in 1840

He was defeated for Congress in 1843

He was defeated for Congress in 1848

He was defeated for Senate in 1855

He was defeated for Vice-President in 1856

He was defeated for Senate in 1858

HE WAS FINALLY ELECTED PRESIDENT IN 1860

He that hath

Date: 27^th January 2013

Preacher: Rev Ernest Aryee

Bible Verse: Mark 4:25

For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.

This is true because Jesus Christ Himself said it and also it is evident in our lives, we see this around us in all aspects of life. For this reason the rich keeps getting richer and the poor poorer. A very clear example is Africa and America. America has moved from riches to riches while Africa sinks in her poverty. But this is not fair! yes it sounds that way but surely there is more to it.

What makes the rich have more whereas the poor who should gain so as to equal with the rich may even loose the little they possess? The question you should be asking is, firstly, what makes the rich man rich and the poor man poor? Is it that the poor man is cursed, is it witchcraft? 

Well, there are certain traits or attributes that successful persons have that makes them successful and also the traits or attributes of unsuccessful people. Am sure you want to know what those traits are.

Here are the lists of the traits of successful people: Diligence, faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly love and charity. 2 Peter 1 5-8

The traits of unsuccessful persons: Lying and Deception, Greed, Evil speaking, Idleness, Selfishness, Envy. Shocking!!! Isn’t it?

These are just the lists, in subsequent posts and also as and when they are preached by my pastor I will be sharing with you right here on this blog, the details of the various traits, just hit on the tag “he that hath” or the name of the traits in the tags column to view all latest posts about this wonderful and inspiring revelation.

You can also purchase the book by Bishop Dag Heward-Mills “HE THAT HATH, TO HIM SHALL BE GIVEN: AND HE THAT HATH NOT, FROM HIM SHALL BE TAKEN EVEN THAT WHICH HE HATH”

Are you born Again?

Date: Sunday, 20^th January, 2013

 

Preacher: Rev Ernest Aryee (Lighthouse Chapel Int. – Lilly of the Valley Cathedral)

Hi Brethren,

Well its rather unfortunate that I went to church late today yet still I’m glad to share with you what I heard and learnt from today’s word. The whole message was about giving our lives to Jesus Christ and making Him our Lord and Saviour. 

The truth about making Jesus our Lord and personal Saviour is that, Christ in His own power could have forced us to do so but no, He has given as our free will so that He can judge us if we don’t. God has given each individual a free will to decide to either join Christ or not. This, I think is quite dangerous to men but we don’t seem to realise it. It is for this reason that we have so many people doubting the existence of God. Many humans do not believe in His existence not to talk of the resurrection power of His son Jesus.

I tell you brethren that, it is better to have Christ in you live and suffer here on earth than not to and burn in hell after judgement. When Christ was living earth He told us that He was going to prepare a place for us all and that He would come the second time but to judge us all according to our works. This is serious, He came the first as a sacrificial lamb but promises to come back the second time as a judge. Heaven and hell are very real.

To the unbelievers: if you believe in Christ Jesus and after your death there is no judgement hey, you’re free. But if you don’t and after your death you are found wanting then you will be in real trouble. But I attest to the fact that Jesus Christ is the only Son of the living god (John 3:16). 

If you have not given your life to Jesus i want you to say this as your prayer;

Lord Jesus, I thank you for my life. I confess I’m a sinner and only you can save me, I believe you died on the cross to save me from my sins. Dear Jesus, come into my life and cleanse me from all my inequities. Write my name in the book of life so that when you appear again I will not be left out. Thank you for saving me, amen.

If you said this prayer, I believe you are born again. Find a Bible believing church in your area and fellowship with them. God richly bless you.

Prayer Session for the will of God to be done

Date: Wednesday, 16^th January, 2013

Preacher: Rev Ernest Aryee (Lighthouse Chapel Int. – Lilly of the Valley Cathedral)

Bible Verse:  Matthew 26:36 - 42

Song:

Prayer is the key (2X)

 Prayer is the master key

 Jesus started with prayer and ended with prayer

 Prayer is the master key

The song is to emphasise the need of prayer in every Christian’s life. We cannot function well as Christians without prayer. Prayer is the only means by which we speak to our Father. We communicate with Him any time or place through prayer. Prayer is the only way through which we can defeat the devil and his followers. God reveals the hidden to us when we pray.

On Wednesday, we prayed for the church, our families and ourselves for the will of God to happen to us. There is only one person who knows tomorrow and that is God. And this same God happens to have a will for each and every one on earth. Are we willing for the will of God to happen in our church or work place, our homes or personal life? If yes then brethren in the Lord, I entreat you to pray on these essential prayer topics, that the will of God be done in our lives.

Because if for any reason the will of God does not happen in the church then one day we will see the church not functioning as it should. Remember in the Bible when Jesus had to personally drive out people who were selling and buying in a church, they turned what used to be a place of worship into a market centre. This could happen to the modern church as well unless the will of God happens which can never be for His altar turned into a market.

 We should also ask God for Him to grant us grace so we can follow the will of God when and as it happens. This is because it is very important we are able to follow the will of our Father in Heaven. Most of the time, the will of God is contrary to our will thus the need for wisdom to know and follow His will. This is my prayer and I hope it is also your prayer. Stay Blessed in the Lord.
