😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 this is the funniest thing I have seen online today 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Brother is good to laugh as laughter is like medicine to the soul. Nevertheless, when Jesus told the Jews: destroy this building and in three days I will raise it up. I didn't think he spent next 24 hours trying to make them understand what he meant, but with time they realized what he was saying.

Scripture says, for the vision is yet for an appointed time: it will speak, it will not tarry. So brother if you don't understand the revelation in that article it's fine, with time you will come to understand.

Peter testified to the writings of Paul that they are hard to comprehend. So if you don't understand, you're in the same boat as Peter: meaning you're in good company

2 Peter 3:15-16
[15]And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;
[16]As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.

what kind of fast do you recommend

Scripture says, "is not this the fast that I have chosen?"
The length of days to fast is yours to choose. The length of days in fasting does not change God, rather it wrought a change in you. Daniel fasted 21 days but the angel of the Lord told Daniel: "... For from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words" (Daniel 10:12).

Daniel prayer was answered the very first day he fasted.
Now because of the blood of Jesus, I know and I'm confident that your fasting can be answered in less than 24hrs because we leave in a better covenant than that under which Daniel fasted.

I should share to others that the holy Spirit comes through fasting and if the holy Spirit is fading they should fast abi?

This may not make sense to you now, but in time it will.

You can't have any form of fellowship separately with either of the two {John 14:10} God gave us Jesus so that we reconnect back to Him {John 3:16} and you can't become a follower of Jesus without the knowledge of God's word! John 6:44
So any version of the Bible is good as long as you fully understand the English or language!

Brother, what is your point? Did the earlier response state the contrary or you just want to write for the sake of writing? It's quite obvious that the earlier response did not say you could fellowship with the Father independent of the Son.
That response is only quoting John's epistle

1 John 1:3
[3]That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

This article should be read and re-read to etch its idea in the mind

People as Catholics, we need to take inventory of what we practice. Otherwise we'll find ourselves beating the air, so to speak.

It's a lie!

The secret behind it is that the clergy are not happy that their followers now have the privilege to read God's word on their own, they fought against the idea for centuries killing whoever wants to read the Bible among those who aren't members of the clergy until King James of England insisted the Bible should be translated to his own mother tongue.
The decision put the clergy in a tight corner so they made the King sign a treaty that no one else should think of translating the Bible into English except the version authorized by the King of England. So they included several things that's not found in the original texts believing no one will ever find out until America declared freedom of speech, expression and worship that is how we now have different versions of the Bible and unveiling the secret behind the King James Version.
If you read the KJV in that old English you can't know that the word "Hell" means Grave because that's the 15th century English word for Grave.
Today most people has been brainwashed with the teaching of immortal soul but when they discover the real meaning of Hell they are confused as they don't know how to tell people that it simply means Grave!

Bro., in the final analysis, you can use any translation of the Bible you can find. However, make sure you have fellowship with the Father and the son. Scripture says our fellowship is with the Father and the Son.

In 1952 Kenneth Hagin relates how Jesus appeared to him in a vision while he was in Rockwall Texas and laid His finger in the palm of each of his hands and declared, "I have called thee and have anointed thee. I have given thee a special anointing to minister to the sick." He went a step further in saying, the Lord Jesus instructed him to tell the people exactly what he was told, stating that if they believed and received it, the power would flow from his hands and effect a healing in their body.

But the point I want to get out there is that, Kenneth Hagin stated that the Lord Jesus told him to fast any time the anointing faded to restore its strength and power.

When I read Hagin's testimony many years ago, I began to ask myself the question: is there an anointing that accompanies fasting? And for many years I peruse through scriptures until today while I was studying the Bible, the Spirit opened my understanding to this truth. And that Is what I want to share with you.

First we need to know that the word "the anointing" is synonymous with the word the Holy Ghost, Spirit, and Power. Many times in scriptures the word the Spirit, power, or the Holy Ghost is use to describe the anointing. For instance, in the book of Zechariah the fourth chapter and the sixth and seventh verses, the Bible say, "... This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain..."

Now what am I getting to? Let's see how the anointing comes through fasting.

Isaiah 58:6
[6]Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?

That text has two fold applications. On the one hand, God is speaking through the prophet Isaiah correcting the children of Israel on the way and manner they should fast. On the other hand, that is prophesying about the Lord Jesus Christ on the fast the Father has chosen for him in order to to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, to let the oppressed go free, and to break every yoke: because in the book of Hebrews scripture says, "... Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me... Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God."

You see, after that the Lord Jesus had been baptized and the Spirit came and abode on him like a dove, he did not do any mighty work until the Spirit led him into the wilderness to fast for forty days and forty nights. And after he had fasted, the Bible say, "And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit." It was after the fast that the anointing became manifest that Jesus declared in the gospel of Luke:

Luke 4:18
[18]The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,


In the book of Isaiah the Lord chose a fast: Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? But he could not loose the bands of wickedness until he fasted and the anointing became manifest; he couldn't undo the heavy burdens until he fasted; he couldn't let the oppressed go free until he fasted. It is the anointing that breaks or destroys the yoke!

Isaiah 10:27
[27]And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.

Acts 10:38
[38]How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

The manifestation of the Spirit or the anointing is usually preceded by a fast. In the book of Acts the thirteenth chapter, the Spirit spoke after Paul and company had fasted.

Acts 13:1-2
[1]Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
[2]As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.

Like I had earlier stated, the word Spirit, Holy Ghost, and power are synonymous with the word the "anointing." Now notice in that text that the Holy Ghost or the anointing didn't speak or manifest until those prophets and teachers fasted. Also, notice it was after Jesus fasted for forty days and forty nights scripture says "And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit."
This was exactly what the Lord Jesus, in a vision, said to Kenneth Hagin, 'that he should fast any time the anointing faded to restore its strength and power."

Friend, the anointing comes through fasting!

Notwithstanding, this is one way the anointing is made manifest, not the only way!

Quite frankly, if we are not careful, the avalanche of relationship constructive desensitization amongst our youths, which they got from influencers on Tik Tok, will lead to an existential crisis in the nearest future. Many of our young women will grow old without a husband anchored on the notion of being independent, and many of our men will have multiple children from multiple partners and end up without a substantive wife.

Quite frankly, if we are not careful, the avalanche of relationship constructive desensitization amongst our youths, which they got from influencers on Tik Tok, will lead to an existential crisis in the nearest future. Many of our young women will grow old without a husband anchored on the notion of being independent, and many of our men will have multiple children from multiple partners and end up without a substantive wife.

On Sunday the 24th of August '25 as I was returning from church, walking down the road, I began asking the Lord the questions on the matter of a mate. I said to the Lord, why are so many relationships amongst the youth becoming toxic? Why are many ladies listening to influencers on Tik Tok who teaches them on how to weaponize their body to get money from men and not love them? Why are so many young men taking lessons from influencers such as the Tik-Toker "Ghe Ghe" on how to be defensive with a manipulative mindset against the onslaught of their girl friends?

After I posed those questions to God, the word of the Lord came to me saying, "But from the beginning it was not so. When I Made Adam I brought all living creatures in twos so he would call them; and when I saw that I said to myself, It is not good that the man should be alone. So I caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and took one of his ribs and closed the flesh and made a woman and brought her unto Adam. And when Adam saw the woman, he said this is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called woman, because she was taken out of man" (Genesis 2: 18-23).

The Lord then ask me this question: "How did Adam know that I made the woman from one of his ribs: because he said, his is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called woman, because she was taken out of man? Adam was in a deep sleep when I took out of his ribs and I closed the flesh, so there were no trace of an opening in his body." You see, when the Lord ask you a question, don't think He doesn't know the answer: He wants to get you into deep water before He can proceed to draw you out. Scripture says, "Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out" (Proverbs 20:5).

When the Lord saw that I was struggling with the answer, He then proceed to open my understanding. The Lord said, "Adam though was in deep sleep, but his spirit and soul was alive unto God. Adam saw in the spirit how I took a rib out of him and made the woman." I said to the Lord I won't believe this except he gives me at least two scriptures to prove it because the Bible said in the mouth of two or three witnesses should every word be established.

Now you may think the Lord was angry when I said He should prove with scriptures His assertions but He was not: He then proceed to give me more then two scriptural references.

Genesis 2: 7
[7] And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

1 Corinthians 15:45
[45] And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; and the last Adam was made a quickning spirit.

Romans 7:9
[9] For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.


When the Lord gave me those three references I immediately understood because prior to this time I had read a book "Prepare for War" by Rebecca Brown. In her book she talked about how that the first man Adam, a living soul, before the fall, could relate to, and see the spirit world as easily as he could the physical world by the use of his spiritual body. She said, Adam demonstrated this by the ease with which he could walk and talk with God in the garden of Eden. Adam had conscious awareness of his spiritual body the same as he had a conscious awareness of his physical body. Adam soul controlled both his spiritual and physical bodies. This was how he knew the woman was made from one of his ribs. Adam was spiritually alive when he met the woman.
Paul on the other hand, signifying in similitude by the inspiration of the Spirit said that he was alive unto God, but when the commandment came, sin revived and he died. You see, Paul was not talking about physical death because he was still alive as at the time he was writing to the saints at Corinth, rather Paul was talking about spiritual death.

Many young men are blinded by the god of this world, and as such are not spiritually alive. They go into a relationship not to find a wife, but to find a girl-friend." The Lord said to me, "In my words, I did not say: He who finds a girl-friend finds a good thing and obtained favour of the Lord; rather in my words I said, he who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtained favour of the Lord" (Proverb 18:22).

The Lord went a step further in saying, "I will not favour any relationship that is not cultivated with the mindset of marriage, but with the mindset of a boy-friend and a girl friend: that will be tantamount to blessing fornication." The Lord then ask me what is the meaning of girl-friend? I opened my phone and on google I searched the word "girl friend." I was shocked when I saw the search answer by google: A girlfriend is typically a female partner in a romantic or sexual relationship, signifying a committed relationship that is not marriage. This was why the Lord said, "... that will be tantamount to blessing fornication."

The lord said, "However, when a man goes into a relationship not to find a girl-friend but a wife, there is a covering over the man and the woman and I will favour the course of the couple."

When the Lord said there is a covering when a man and a woman are in a relationship with the intention of becoming husband and wife, Something said to me Ezekiel sixteen. So I opened my Bible right there and scan through Ezekiel sixteen and I found what the Lord is saying

Ezekiel 16:8
[8] Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy unclothedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a convenant with thee, saith the Lord God, and thou becamest mine.

The word skirt as used in that scripture refers to a garment, a spiritual covering, which can only be seen, between a man and a woman in a union, in the realms of the spirit (see Psalms 133:2). Also, notice that before the union was consummated there was already a spiritual covering of the female by the male. That is the favour of the Lord on a relationship that's tending towards marriage.

So the reason many relationships have gone sour is because 90% are for sexual benefits not for marriage. As there's no covering of the man and the woman since the relationship is not tending towards marriage, it is devoid of the favour of the Lord.

This topical issue, on the matter of a mate is coming at no better time than now when we have a plethora of qualified and unqualified marriage experts on Tik-Tok dolling out marriage and relationship advise to as many that desire to consume their utopian idea on the subject of marriage and relationship.

For over 2,000 years, the world has been abuzz with speculation about a pivotal conversation that took place between three extraordinary men on the sacred slopes of Mount Tabor. The reverberations of their discussion were so profound that they shook the very foundations of Mount Zion in Jerusalem, sending shockwaves throughout the land of Israel. The impact was so immense that it stirred the dead from their slumber, and they walked among the living, bearing witness.

These three men, though living centuries apart, were united by their unwavering commitment to their faith and their unshakeable conviction in the power of the divine. Each of them left an indelible mark on human history, turning the world upside down with their words and deeds.

The first, a man exiled for forty years, returned to Egypt with a humble rod in his hand, yet wielded unimaginable power. With this rod, he led over two million people out of bondage, parting the Red Sea and defying the laws of nature. This man's legacy continues to shape the course of human history.

The second, a fiery prophet, held the heavens hostage with his prayers, commanding the skies to withhold rain for three and a half years. His words summoned fire from heaven, and his departure from the physical realm was marked by a whirlwind of wonder accompanied by a chariot of fire. This man testament still stirs the hearts of many today.

The third, on whose account the other two came to bear witness, stood on Mount Tabor and was transfigured before three Jewish witnesses. He wrought signs and wonders unexplainable to men that many of the day questioned: what manner of man is this that the sea obey him? He walked on water, commanded the raging sea to be still, casted out evil spirits by his words, raised the dead, and made foolish the wisdom of men who think they are wise.
His death on the cross rattled the very pillars of the earth crust and foundations of beliefs. He died and was buried and was laid in a tomb carved out of rock and sealed with a heavy stone. But on the third day, the grave could no longer hold him, the heavy stone that sealed his tomb was rolled away, not by men, but by an unseen being. He was seen by thousands over forty days after his resurrection, and eventually was taking up to heaven in glory. His teachings and actions continue to shape the course of human history, inspiring countless followers and sparking profound transformations.

The discussion between these three men remains a topic of fascination and speculation, with many attempting to unravel the mystery of what was said. While the exact details of their conversation may never be known, their individual legacies continue to inspire, motivate, and challenge people around the world.

Their stories serve as a testament to the power of faith, conviction, and the human spirit. As we reflect on their lives and teachings, we are reminded that the impact of one person, or in this case, three, can be felt for millennia, shaping the course of human history and leaving an indelible mark on the world.

The same reason people love old wine over new wine. The old wine indicate proximity to the original taste: in this context, proximity to transcription and translation. It shows dedication, preservation, and history. Scripture says, "No man also having drunk old wine straightway desireth new: for he saith, The old is better" (Luke 5:39).

We quote the king James old version because it is good to keep company with "kings," they're the custodians of traditions!

Scripture says, "As his part is that goeth to battle, so shall his part be that lieth by the stuff: both of them shall part alike."

David speaking by Spirit says, "as his part is that goeth to battle so shall his part be that lieth by the stuff: both of them shall part alike."

Now this is not talking about most people that deliberately refuse to go to church but rather indulge in watching only services. Nevertheless, they will be blessed, but their lot will not be the same as those who go to the gathering of the brethren because it is there that God will command the blessing

Psalms 133:1-3
[1](A Song of degrees of David.) Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
[2]It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;
[3]As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

Have you not read, "Ye are in the world but not of the world?"

Just because you're a Catholic doesn't mean you should swallow all her doctrines. Have you not read, "The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not" (Matthew 23:2-3).

If you haven't baptized, please run to the nearest church

Kobojunkie:
The 100s of millions of baptized individuals out there had the doors to their destiny opened, abi? Fraudsters and scammers, the bunch of your all!

You err not knowing the scriptures nor the power of God.
You see, this is the days of the fulfillment of prophecy. The prophet Joel by the inspiration of the Holy Ghost prophesied that in this last days, "... And I will restore unto thee the days that the locust has eaten..." Now what days was he referring to? Today! These are the days in which the first principles of the doctrine of Christ is preached. This was why Jesus commissioned his disciples saying, "Go into the world and preach the gospel to all nations baptizing them...."

The very day a man is baptized, the heaven is opened unto him to restore that which he had lost. However, if that man doesn't know his inheritance in baptism he may not know how to possess it. You see Deuteronomy chapter two, the LORD said to the children of Israel:

Deuteronomy 2:31
[31]And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land before thee: begin to possess, that thou mayest inherit his land.

It's one thing to know what God has and is about to do for you, it's another thing to know how to possess it. In that text, the LORD has given Sihon to the children of Israel but they still have to possess it, otherwise it won't be theirs.

By revelation of scriptures I've come to understand that certain victories might not be won until we come to an understanding of certain truths in scriptures: one of them is the power of baptism.

I was born into a family of five: my father and mother and my three brothers. We all grew up as Catholics. And beginning from a tender age we were taken to the church for baptism and the priest sprinkled water on our four-heads while reciting rites as stated in the Catholic doctrines. This ritual, as it is so called, in the context of infant baptism requires, in an ideal situation, the baptizand (the godchild) and their godparents, who act as sponsors, taking on a role of support and guidance in the baptizand journey of faith.

Now in the course of time I happened to be a godfather to two of my cousins first removed. During one of the preparatory classes, the Sacristan allude that only baptism done by Catholic rites are acceptable, which before the end of the class I had dismissed such bogus and narrow-minded unscriptural statement. I then asked him a question that in an emergency situation can anybody baptize a prospective candidate for baptism? In his reply, he requested that I cite an example of such emergency situation. And I began to give him an instance in the Bible but he stopped me abruptly that I should not give example from the Bible, rather to give real life example. On hearing this I decided to keep mute because I don't want to engage in an argument with the Sacristan that is not backed by scriptures.

You see, baptism is one of the first principles of the teaching of Christ (Hebrews 6:1). And as such, should be interpreted in the light of corroborating scriptures not in the light of any doctrinal tangent, Catholic or Pentecostal notwithstanding.

Yet, this discourse is to give an exposition on the power of baptism: how it can open doors into destiny.
Paul writing by the inspiration of the Holy Ghost to the church at Corinth says, "Now all these things happened unto them for ensample: and are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come (1 Corinthians 10:11)." Put somewhat differently, certain things that were written in scriptures were written so that we in the dispensation of the Holy Ghost would take a cue and learn from them in order that we may be followers of them who through faith and patience obtain the promise.

Recently, as I was meditating on baptism and I got a revelation on how baptism, either by water or in the Holy Ghost, can open doors into destiny. You see, the Bible says, "The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law." Now did you notice the last clause in the last statement: "... That we may do all the words of this law"
In other words, the secret is revealed unto us that we may do them and pass the secret to our children for ever. Now one of the secret that was revealed to me as I was meditating on the word is baptism.

When I enrolled for a Master degree program in Statistics at Unilorin, the Lord led me to a church that I'm currently attending and I re-baptized the second time: but this time by immersion in water. Recall I said I grew up in a Catholic family home, meaning I was baptized by sprinkling of water as an infant. The years leading up to my baptism by immersion, things were tough: and when I open the Bible I can't seem to get any light out of it. If I do read the Bible it's just to fulfill all righteousness, there was no meat. But the moment I got baptized by immersion, I began getting revelations in line with scriptures, and there was a breakthrough in every aspect of my life.

Now with that thought in mind, I said to myself, all these did not happen until this happened. So I decided to research if there were scriptural precedence to breakthroughs as a by product of baptism, and the Lord opened my eyes.

1 Corinthians 10:1-2
[1]Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
[2]And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

God had decided to take the children of Israel to the promised land, but before they went into the land, the Bible says they were baptized unto Moses under the cloud (which is a type of the baptism in the Holy Ghost) and through the sea (which is a type of the baptism by immersion in water). While the children of Israel were being baptized unto Moses a way was opened in the midst of the sea and they walked on dry ground leading up to the promise land.

Exodus 14:15-16,21-22
[15]And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward:
[16]But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
[21]And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
[22]And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.

Notice the moment they were baptized unto Moses, a way was opened in the midst of the sea.

2 Kings 2:6-14
[6]And Elijah said unto him, Tarry, I pray thee, here; for the LORD hath sent me to Jordan. And he said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And they two went on.
[7]And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood to view afar off: and they two stood by Jordan.
[8]And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.
[9]And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.
[10]And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so.
[11]And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
[12]And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
[13]He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan;
[14]And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is the LORD God of Elijah? and when he also had smitten the waters, they parted hither and thither: and Elisha went over.


In the book of Second Chronicles, Elisha was about to step into the office of the prophet because the Lord was about to take Elijah, but before Elisha could step into that office, he was baptized unto Elijah in Jordan River, so to speak.
Notice in verse 2 of that text, Elijah smote the water and it parted and they both walked on dry ground in the midst of Jordan River (this is a type of the baptism in water). Also, notice that when Elijah was taken up, the Bible says, Elisha took up the mantle of Elijah that fell from him (this is type of the baptism in the Holy Ghost).
Now the moment Elisha crossed the Jordan River after smiting it with Elijah's mantle, a way was opened unto him that he walked on dry land and he stepped into his destiny.

Matthew 3:13-17
[13]Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.
[14]But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?
[15]And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.
[16]And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
[17]And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

The Lord Jesus was about to step into destiny to begin his ministry, and so he went down to Jordan River where John was baptizing and scriptures says when he was baptized, the heavens were opened unto him, and the Spirit of God descended like a dove upon him. Here also we can see the baptism by water and in the Holy Ghost. But the point I want to emphasize on is the fact that the heavens over the Lord Jesus was opened unto him the moment he was baptized.

Now time will not permit me to give more scriptural reference to open doors into destiny through baptism (such as in the book of Acts 2:4 when the disciples were baptized in the Holy Ghost, doors to witness Christ in Jerusalem, in Judea, and in Samaria were opened unto them). Yet the Bible says in the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established. I have given you four scriptural witnesses (the children of Israel, Elisha, the Lord Jesus, and the disciples) on how baptism can open doors to destiny.

Now someone might ask, brother, what about the hundreds of millions of baptized individuals out there who are still struggling to get a breakthroughs in life? You see, people who ask such question are ignorant of scriptures. They err not knowing the scriptures nor the power of God.
You see, this is the days of the fulfillment of prophecy. The prophet Joel by the inspiration of the Holy Ghost prophesied that in this last days, "... And I will restore unto thee the days that the locust has eaten..." Now what days was he referring to? Today! These are the days in which the first principles of the doctrine of Christ is preached. This was why Jesus commissioned his disciples saying, "Go into the world and preach the gospel to all nations baptizing them...."

Evidently, the very day a man is baptized, the heaven is opened unto him to restore that which he had lost. However, if that man doesn't know his inheritance in baptism he may not know how to possess it. In Deuteronomy chapter two, the LORD said to the children of Israel:

Deuteronomy 2:31
[31]And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land before thee: begin to possess, that thou mayest inherit his land.

It's one thing to know what God has and is about to do for you, it's another thing to know how to possess it. In that text, the LORD has given Sihon to the children of Israel but they still have to possess it, otherwise it won't be theirs.

If things are not going well for you and you're yet to be baptized, here are evidence that you should get yourself baptized to step into your destiny.





Don't hoard knowledge, propagate it!

Jesus id Lord!

Remember this: as his part is that goeth to battle so shall his part be that lieth by the stuff: both of them shall part alike.

The encounter of the Lord makes no distinction between the main auditorium and the local assembly

It is plausible for an AI to translate tongues but impossible for it to interpret tongues. The Bible did not say to translate tongues rather to interpret.
In the book of Daniel the queen asked the king to send for Daniel to interpret not translate the writing on the wall. You see, Daniel could interpret because he has the Spirit of the Holy One in him.
AI cannot interpret tongues because it has not the Spirit of God.

orisa37:
Tongue IS Thought provoking. Lunacy is unbridled Actions.

Let me ask you two questions

1. Perhaps you could educate me more: how is tongues thought provoking?

2. Have you received the baptism of the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues?

orisa37:
CAN AI INTERPRETE TONGUES AND LUNACY IN MAN?

What is the correlation between interpretation of tongues and lunacy?

This article is an expository whose time has fome. It addresses the silent question in the minds of most Christians today, particularly those who are filled with a Holy Ghost. And the preponderance question is, "Can AI Interpret tongues?"

The answer to that question is detailed with great scriptural emphasis in this article.

This article is highly recommended for all Christians for edification and comfort in the word of God.
