TOPIC: WE WILL GO TO RAPTURE WITH ALL WE HAVE
TEXT: Ex.10:8-10; Gen.6:18-19; Joshua 24:15 Brethren, it is the end time and our Lord Jesus Christ is coming very soon and we all like those before us should be ready for the rapture of the Saints (1Cor.15:51-52). Nothing will hinder us from making it (Matt.16:18); this world is not our final home, we are all on transit (John 14:1-3; Heb.10:36-37). He is coming to take us to our final home, heaven at last (Luke 12:32). So, while we are getting ready for our journey to heaven by rapture, we must ensure all the necessary preparations (Amos 4:12). Remember, God is holy, heaven is holy and all the inhabitants of heaven are also holy (1Peter 1:15- 16; Matt.25:31; Rev.21:1-2). We must prepare to be there. We shall consider this message under the following sub-headings:- 1. The Reason, Examples And What We Must Go With 2. Our Expected Response And The Danger Of Neglect 1. THE REASONS, EXAMPLES AND WHAT WE MUST GO WITH Our enemies do not want us to have anything; they do not want anybody around us to be saved; they do not want anything that will bring glory to God to provoke others to worship our God (Ex.1:7-10, 13-14). They want us to be a mockery to the name of the Lord and our relations, father, mother, brother, sister, sons and daughters to be with them while we go to serve the Lord. Just like those before us, they want our money or all we have to remain with them while we go to serve God empty-handed so that no one will follow us to rapture or make heaven (Ex.8:28; Ex.10:8- 11; Ex.10:24-26). We have to go on rapture with them like Moses and the children of Israel. We will go with our wife, husband, father, mother, sister, brother, children and our relations and have money to serve the Lord before the rapture. 2. OUR EXPECTED RESPONSE AND THE DANGER OF NEGLECT We all must make up our mind to prepare and ensure purity inside and outside; we must go with our husband, wife, children, father and mother. We must go with all our relations and our members; we must go with ten billion souls. We must go with the blessings of the Living God to serve Him and provoke others to follow us to rapture or heaven at last (Ex.10:24-26). We must ensure that none of our relations goes to hellfire and no soul should be lost. We must determine that all the backsliders must be recovered. We must determine on prayers, fellowship and evangelism day and night. We must say no to anything or being that will hinder us from going with them and we must do everything to have them, that Pharaoh or devil will have no choice but to release them to us (Ex.12:30-33). And for anything to be left behind, it will be a terrible reproach to the name of the Lord and will hinder those our relations or people from making heaven at last. For sinners and backsliders, they should repent, confess their sins and accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and personal Saviour (1John 3:8-9; 1John 5:17 a; Jer.4:30; Deut.22:5; 2Cor.5:17; John 3:16; John 19:30; John 14:6; John 10:10; John 1:12; Rom.6:23; John 8:36; Rom.10:13; Pro.28:13; Phil.4:19; Psalm 23:1).

TOPIC: THE KINGDOM’S FABULOUS BLESSING
TEXT: Ex. 3:6-8; Gen.1:26-30; Matt.6:33 BRETHREN, from the points already discussed on this theme in our Tuesday Revival Hour services, we will agree that our God is a fabulous God (wonderful, marvellous) with fabulous kingdom and blessing (Mal.1:14; Jer.32:18-19; Psalm 121:2; Matt.6:33). Due to His fabulous nature, He made man to have and dwell in fabulous blessing, and when man was displaced from the fabulous blessing of His presence into sin and Egypt, which is contrary to His will, God did not waste time to seek and bring man back into the fabulous blessing of His presence/kingdom (Gen.1:26-30; Gen.3:1-7, 23; Ex.3:7-8; Deut.6:10-11; Deut.11:11-12). In the same way, as many who are away from this fabulous kingdom and are into sin, sorrow and suffering, the Lord is set to bring them back into the fabulous blessing of His kingdom in Jesus name. For better understanding, we shall consider the following sub-headings:- 1. God’s Fabulous Kingdom-Our Foremost Need and The Reasons 2. Fabulous Blessings - The Inheritance Of God’s Children and Our Response 1. GOD’S FABULOUS KINGDOM - OUR FOREMOST NEED AND THE REASONS As a result of the sin of Adam, mankind was separated from this fabulous kingdom of God and its blessing (Rom.3:23). When we are not in good relationship with God, we are equally far from His fabulous blessing, because they can be found in the kingdom of God and are possible only through God (Matt.6:33; Luke 15:31; Gen.1:26-30). God gave this blessing to Adam and Eve when they were with Him in righteousness, but their sin separated them from it (Gen.3:23-24). So, no matter what one may possess outside the kingdom or away from God, it is considered as nothing and is void of fabulous blessing (John 15:5; John 10:10b). Whatever anyone acquires in sin or deception is false and will surely bring such person into judgment and eternal damnation (Matt.4:8-10; Mark 8:35-37). He or she will fall into the category of those described as thieves and robbers (John 10:1; John 15:5; John 14:6; John 10:10b; Matt.25:46). Therefore, the need above all needs is to reconcile with God through Jesus Christ or come into His fabulous kingdom through Jesus Christ (Matt.6:33; John 14:6; Matt.11:27-28; Phil.4:13, 19). 2. FABULOUS BLESSING - THE INHERITANCE OF GOD’S CHILDREN AND OUR RESPONSE As we said before, our God is a fabulous God with fabulous kingdom and blessing and has promised and given fabulous blessing to those who were His children in time past (Gen.1:26-30; Gen.12:1-3; Gen.13:14- 17; Gen.24:1; Ex.3:6-8; Joshua 1:1-5; Matt.11:27; Deut.28:1-13). Fabulous blessing belongs to God and His true children; also as many who will reconcile with God through Jesus Christ today shall be co- inheritors of these fabulous blessing (Psalm 24:1; Phil.4:19; 1Cor.3:21; Luke 15:31; John 15:16; Isa.54:15-17; Psalm 115:16; Luke 14:16-20). So, all who are truly born-again and all true children of God indeed are co-owners of the inheritance of God with Jesus Christ. But, those who are not born again run the risk of losing everything to the children of God and will surely be charged as thieves and cast into hell at the end of this life if they fail to amend or repent (Psalm 2:1-4, 8; Mark 8:35-37; Rev.21:8; Ex.23:25-27). Our response to this message should be to come into the kingdom and ask for the kingdom’s fabulous blessings, ensure that we receive them today and endeavour to dwell on them. But those who are not yet born again and backsliders should repent, confess their sins and come to Jesus Christ in order not to be charged as thieves and be cast into hell at the end (Rom.3:23; Rom.6:23; John 3:16; 1John 3:8-9; 1John 5:17; Pro.28:13; John 14:6; John 8:36; John 1:12; Psalm 23:1; Rom.10:13).
