A MESSAGE OF TRUTH
AND HOPE BY LATE ARCH BISHOP BENSON IDAHOSA.

YOU HAVE GOD’S POWER IN YOU:
READINGS: Act 17:26-29, Job 2:7, Exd 15:26, Isa
53:4-5, Matt 8:14-16, matt 9:32-33
God
has given us power to be wealthy, to feed the ones in need and hence, I am not
meant to beg instead to be giving. The LORD God have given us power and
authority to heal the people and not to be sick/ill.
Now,
if you are poor, you are not poor because you have come to believe in Christ
Jesus nor neither are you poor because you are born or created to be poor from
origin. The reasons that may amount to your poor life may be because you are
lazy, never having strong mindset/willpower, it may be because you never had
patient in pursuit for a great future.
However, just as a baby never paid the mother
neither did he begged her to stay in the womb, so also like one in Christ, we
are his people, who come and live in Him, so we pay Him nothing as rent, for he first had paid it all for us
in the cross and told us at the end that IT IS FINISHED. Now we are the
offspring of Christ(Act 17:29), we have everything we need as we remain in
Christ, in Him is freedom, joy, wealth, life full of joy and happiness.
That
we may be sick, poor, deceived and become powerless sometimes is because we
have not valued our positions as children of the most high God, and have
forgotten that he have paid all our depth in the cross with His own precious
life.
Finally remember that by His strip we were
healed and He was made poor that you and I we may become rich.
