#4. THE MANNA STAGE:
This is the stage where God takes full charge of nurturing you while he prepares you for the promised land.
   In this stage you have to be patient and your faith must be very deep and strong enough to withstand the test of time because you'd be passing through some sort of wilderness experience but you will always the non-stop divine providence of God.
  This is why it's called the Manna Stage.
Just as God fed an entire nation in the desert everyday (non-stop) without missing a square meal, God will supply all and every single one of your needs as he prepares the place of establish and enthronement for you.
  Read Exodus 16:35

#5. THE JERICHO AND JORDAN STAGE (DISOBSTRUCTION STAGE):
   This is the stage where God is about to usher you into the place of establishment and enthronement, at this stage GOD will shake things up so that every obstacles or barriers in your way will be removed and nothing at all will be in between you and your place of promise. Your place of establishment and enthronement.
 
   The walls of Jericho in between you and the fulfilment of the promise will collapse and every river Jordan in your way will be parted to let you pass through.

#6. THE CANAAN OR BEERSHEBA STAGE (ARRIVAL STAGE):
This is the stage where you finally arrive into the promised land. It's the poinkt where God now fulfils his promise of taking you into the promised land.
  This is the point where Joseph is crowned the Prime Minister of Egypt. This is the point where Sarah finally conceives and is pregnant with a son for Abraham.
  First every wall in between you and the fulfilment of the promise will collapse and every river in your way will be parted to let you pass through and you enter into the place of blessing and promise as Christ said;

     Matthew 25:21 (KJV)

    "Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord"


#7. THE MILK AND HONEY STAGE (ESTABLISHED STAGE):
This is the stage where the blessings of the promise will manifest. You're not just going into a promised land, you're not just going into a place of enthronement and establishment, you're also going in to eat the fruits of the land.
At this stage the fruits of the land will be given to you and you will enjoy your status of being enthroned and established, It's one thing to be enthroned and established, and it's another to enjoy the fruits of enthronement and establishment.
   I decree and declare in Jesus name that you will not just be enthroned and established, you will also enjoy the fruits, benefits and blessings that come with being enthroned and established in the land which God has promised you.

The 7 Stages of Deliverance and Prosperity:

It takes being delivered and redeemed constantly by God to attain the highest heights and levels of prosperity in all and every areas of life. When a Man or Woman or People or Nation are in bondage, being in bondage affects and arrests their prosperity and development in life.
When the nation of Isreal were in captivity, they couldn't prosper as much as they could because they were at the mercy of their dictatorial masters.
Until deliverance brings about freedom, one may continue to experience arrested prosperity.

  Obadiah 1:17 says;

  "Upon Mount Zion, there shall be deliverance, healing and the children of Jacob shall posses their possessions."

The phrase "possession of one's possessions" means what is yours being yours, in your custody, in your paws and under your control.
  It's just like watching TV, when the remote control is in your hands, you can enjoy the control of your gadget as much as you please. When the remote control is not in your hands, but in the hands of someone else, the person may switch to other channels that you don't want to watch.

  When you're delivered from all kinds of satanic bondage, the remote control of prosperity is yanked off the hands of the devil and placed in your hands and you can do as you wish with it.

Jesus Christ came to deliver us from all kinds of Satanic bondage.

  To be free, all you have to do is to accept Jesus as your lord and saviour today! Become born again, become a believer of the truth and you can live to enjoy all the benefits and promises.

    John 3:3 (KJV);

  "Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God"

In Matthew 16:19 and 18:18 (KJV);
Jesus Christ reminds us who believe in him that the remote control is now in our own hands, and we can enjoy doing what we can do with it.

"I have given you the keys to the kingdom of God, so whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven"

Here are the 7 Stages of Deliverance and Prosperity in the life of a true (born again) believer:

#1. THE BONDAGE LOATHING STAGE (DESIRE STAGE): 
This is the first step for deliverance in all and every case of a great act of deliverance, healing and blessings. It's the Abram in his Father's house stage, it's the Israelites in Egypt stage, it's the Joseph in the pit stage and it's the prodigal son with the pigs state.
  The desire to be free from bondage and from captivity is the first step to massive deliverance, redemption and salvation from the captivity of the evil captors.

Except a man or woman or people or nation desires to be free from captivity, God will not deliver them. God's attention is only obtainable when a man or woman or people or nation hates, loathes and detests their state of being in captivity.
 
Hating, loathing and detesting your state of penury, or captivity or living in bondage is the very first step to being set free from bondage.

#2. THE "OUT OF EGYPT" STAGE (ESCAPE STAGE):
  This is the stage where God takes you out of the immediate environment of bondage. This is first step of the manifestation of deliverance.

This is the Abram out of his Father's house stage, this is Moses out of Egypt and into the land of Midian stage, first God removes you from the immediate place of bondage and then away from the reach of your captors.

#3. THE RED SEA CROSSING STAGE (BREAKAWAY STAGE):
This is the stage where God takes you away and far from the reach of the environment of bondage. When the Children of Israel crossed the red sea, they were taken far from the reach of the captivity of Egypt.
First God takes you out, then he takes you far from the reach of the captors. To ensure that they cannot take you back into captivity.
  This is the stage where God tells the devil, "can't touch this".

@Babinsky
When you read Genesis 8:21-22
God himself said
"I shall no longer curse the ground for man's sin"

If you break that down it means "I shall no longer be offended by Man's sinful nature or it technically means I shall no longer allow man's sinful nature offend me"

But

I shall install an app on earth, or a mechanism that will bring consequences to man, so that if he/she decides to sin recklessly, he or she will collect big time!
You understand!

GOD also said "Man is sinful from his youth"
This means man starts manifesting his rebellion against God when he matures in his knowledge of good and evil.
This is why 18 years is the official age of adulthood.
When Man is held responsible for his actions, good or evil!

Sin is man's default/factory settings, because all men born of women (except Jesus) was conceived in sin.

Religion / SIN Does Not Offend GOD: Here are 3 Things That Really Offends GOD by reallifegospel(m): 1:34am On Jan 29
SIN does not offend GOD, here are 3 things that really offends GOD:
- Apostle Constance C. Friday Ani

Sin does not offend God. God knows that Man cannot live or exist without committing sin.
  Man sins against GOD at almost every 60 seconds interval of his existence. The ones who are worse sin at every 20 or 30 seconds interval of existence.
  The ones who are above average still succumb to sin at least every 90 or 120 seconds.

GOD is merciful and slow to anger.

If God is not merciful and tolerant of our sins, we would all be dead by now. God would have slaughtered Adam and Eve instantly without asking too much questions after they both ate the forbidden fruit.
  The fact that God didn't do that, rather God killed a Bear and covered them with it's skin, is a sign that your being a sinful being or creature doesn't offend GOD.

Here are the 3 things that actually offends or gets GOD angry:

1. Pride
2. Wicked Imaginations
3. Injustice


Let's talk about them one by one

1. PRIDE:
Pride is displeasing to GOD because it's the nature and seed of evil itself. Pride is defined as trying to do better than GOD.
It's like telling GOD, "hey God, I don't think you know what you're doing, let me get this done on your behalf".
Proverbs 16:18-19
It's the reason why GOD threw Satan out of heaven.
Read Ezekiel 28:11-19 , Luke 10;18 and Isaiah 14:12-17

Pride is the seed that births every other kind of sin, that's why it pisses God off real good.
God sees the end from the beginning and it is what he wills to happen to humankind that happens. This is based on the choices and decisions of men.
Pride gets under God's skin, because pride is the egg of the cockatrice that hatches to bring venomous issues to fore.

*Pride is the cause of unrepentance,
*Pride is the cause of wickedness,
*Pride is the cause of more sin,
*Pride is the cause of rebellion against God.

Pride is the multiplier of sin, a person who steals for example can end up committing another sin while stealing due to pride.

After knocking up Uriah's wife, King David went ahead to kill Uriah because he was too proud to swallow the humiliation the exposure of his sin would bring him.

God didn't punish David for sleeping with Uriah's wife and getting her pregnant. God punished him for killing Uriah with the aim of hiding his sin.
Trying to hide or cover one's sin is an act of pride. And some folks commit worse sins while trying to cover up a sin with a smaller gravity although in the eyes of God, all sins are the same.

2. WICKED IMAGINATIONS:
When GOD destroyed the world with the great flood, he did so because man's imaginations were always wicked.


Genesis 6:5-7 (KJV)
5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. "

Let's zoom in on the 2nd part or b part of verse 5 of Genesis chapter 6, it reads:

"Every imagination of the thoughts of the hearts of the men that were existing on earth as at that time were continually and constantly evil"

This means unlike what I stated above earlier, in 60 seconds, every single 1 second, and every single milliseconds and nanoseconds in every 1 second during the days of Noah, Man's thoughts, imagination and inner meditation were all wicked.
They were all against GOD. All Men in existence were telling GOD in their hearts; GOD you don't know what you're doing, let's be God in your place, or let's be GOD on your behalf.

Do you know why wicked imaginations piss God off?
In the realm of imagination Man has the maximised ability to create events on earth.
When man's imaginations are good, he creates good events that brings good to his fellow men and brings glory and praises to God.
When Man's imaginations are wicked or evil, he creates wicked and evil events that brings glory to Satan.
Anything that brings glory to Satan displeases GOD.

AND any being or creature that constantly brings displeasure to GOD will soon be destroyed by God if he/she/it does not repent.

Good imaginations please God, while wicked imaginations displease God and creatures who constantly displease GOD will be judged and destroyed by GOD.

SO Always say "Good Thinking, Good Product" until your mind is structured to only produce good imaginations.

3. INJUSTICE:
GOD hates injustice.
Things that are unjust such as refusing to pay your workers their wages/salaries when due, using resources meant for building the community healthcare centre to buy cars, private jets and other things to impress folks whom you don't need to really impress and denying justice to the poor or to the oppressed ones in the society.
All these things displease GOD.
Ahab and Jezebel's idol worship displeased God but God didn't move to destroy them. He kept sending the Prophet Elijah to bring them back to repentance, on and on and on until they both carried out an act of injustice that sorely displeased GOD.
They murdered Naboth and took his vineyard.
The murder of Naboth and the unjust takeover of his vineyard caused God to execute swift retribution against Ahab and his wife Jezebel.
King David's murder of Uriah was an act of injustice and God judged him for that. Each time anyone acts unjustly GOD executes a full weighty dose of judgement upon him/her.
It's here and there and everywhere in the scriptures.
Injustice of any kind or magnitude offends GOD and brings his wrath crashing down upon the wicked like a large stone landing from the sky on a building.
But God rewards every act of justice, good imaginations and humility with blessings. Good measures shaken together, pressed down and running over shall GOD give unto the just and happy shall you be when God blesses you immensely!

Religion / Re: How to Focus Inwards and Outwards For Great Results by reallifegospel(m): 1:29am On Jan 29
reallifegospel:
Staying Focused, Inwards and Outwards for great results

Time and time again, you must have heard the word focus.
Stay Focused is what people tell you all the time, what does it mean to be focused and what is the significance of being focused in a man's life?
 
Man is the scientific, spiritual and psychological outcome of his focus. What a man stays focused on for a very long time is what he transforms into. What a man manifests in his life like fruits that emerge from a blooming tree is the outcome of what he or she has focused on for a long time.
  If a man stays focused on pornographic magazines, pornographic websites, all kinds of junks and jargons plus more and more garbage that quenches the light within, he or she becomes a manifestation of that which he or she has stayed visually, mentally and psychologically fixated on for a very long time.
If a man stays focused on constructive information (such as the type found in God's Words) he becomes a well constructed and developed creature after a long time of fixation.

  There are two factors that brings about the manifestation of what you focus on like fruits from a tree.

1. Visual, Psychological and Mental Fixation:
   A terrible and self destructive addiction like pornography does not only stop at the visual aspect of focus, it also spreads out to the psychological and mental aspect of it thus such immoral images remain in both the conscious and unconscious mind for a long time waiting for opportunities to manifest.
   If on the other hand what you've focused on for a very long time is the Word of God which the book of John chapter 1 calls Christ Jesus himself, over time it will manifest itself and become flesh in your life.

2. The length of time you stay focused on the fixation:
   It takes time to not just become visually fixated on the wrong or right information, but also to meditate (mental replay) on what you've seen or heard until it graduates to the mental and psychological level of fixation. At this level it's a vice or virtue that's ready to manifest.
  When a virtue or vice manifests itself it is said to have become flesh and it becomes something that everyone notices about you.
  Virtues come from staying focused on good information for a very long time. Vices come from staying focused on wrong information for a very long time.

Man has 2 types of focus:
1. The Outward Focus and
2. The Inwards Focus.

1. Outward Focus:
   This is what a man looks at or listens to from the outside of himself. Man by default is likened to a vessel that contains what it has been filled with and what a man gets filled with is the outcome of what he's focused on outside-in.
   The outside-in focus is the first stage of focus, that's why infants exhibit the outcomes of their immediate environment before education, peer pressure and other factors alter that.
  The scriptures recommend that we focus outwardly on Jesus Christ, the author and the finisher of our faith. (Hebrews 12:2)
   What does the term "author and finisher" mean?
It simply means the power to start a good virtue at it's seed stage and continue to nurture it character-wise until it becomes a great virtue (fruit) that brings praises to God.

2. Inwards Focus:
   What you have inside you is already there but it's stirred up by what you focus on outside-in. It starts from outside-in then it manifests from inside out.
   Now inwards focus is more important in critical times than outward focus because there are moments when being caught up in the storms of life can distort what you see when you look outwards.
If you internalize the Word of God and you see a raging storm of confusion whenever you look outwards, what you've internalised already will be the calm and the peace you have in the trying situations or circumstances.
    Confusion is the outcome of focusing on the Word of God and garbage at the same time and knowing what garbage is, garbage should be thrown out of one's mind immediately.
    Pornographic materials, wrong information, bad news, negative opinions of ungodly men or women about godliness or godly people, plus a whole lot of rubbish and nonsense we see in movies, novels, magazines etc are all garbage compared to God's Word. "Throw them out of your mind".
   A virtuous life that causes men to give praises to God and does not cause ungodly men or women to find an opportunity to blaspheme God's name.
  Is the outcome of staying focused on God's Word and God's Word alone. That is the source of true power!

Religion / Should Church Music Instrumentalists Be Paid For Their Duties? by reallifegospel(m): 8:06am On Jan 27
Q&A: Should Church Music Instrumentalists be paid for their duties?

The controversy rages on about if or not, a music instrumentalist who plays for a Church (big or small) should be paid or not?

Church Instrumentalists are individuals who play music instruments during the worship services.
  Such music instruments includes the piano, drums, guitars, trumpet, violin, etc, etc
  Most Folks believe that if a Church is big and successful, they should try to financially support their instrumentalists.

   In some cases, the instrumentalists themselves demand that they should be compensated financially or paid salaries for their duties.
   Some instrumentalists claim that it takes a lot of sacrifices to be present and render their services to a church, especially if it's a mega church.
   Some instrumentalists down tools when the church over extended periods of time do not compensate them financially.

So the big question is,
Should a music instrumentalist be paid for the services he/she renders to the Church?

I'll answer both with my personal experience and with what was said recently by Pastor David Ibiyieome (The Bishop of Salvation Ministries Worldwide).

I was a drummer and keyboard player during my younger days.
  I played the music instruments for the church I was in at that time, I was always on time for church services and choir practice.
  I didn't do it like I was doing the Church a favour, I did it diligently with love and joy, and honestly back then, I indeed saw God move in great and mighty ways in my life.
  

I didn't tax or bill the Churches I was in back then to play the music instruments for them, I didn't act high handed act as if I was doing the Church a favour by playing the music instruments, I just showed up on time during choir practice days, and during church services and I served with joy and gladness.

  Occasionally, I'd get a few financial gifts here and there from some individuals, but I never had it in mind that I was collecting a salary or wage of some sort for my work and God is still blessing me till today for those services I rendered back then with joy and gladness.

Recently Pastor David Ibiyieome (the lead Pastor of Salvation Ministries Worldwide) made a statement that is worthy of note to all instrumentalists who insist that they must be paid for their services.

  Pastor David's statement is what I'll call the hard truth style of saying what I just stated or gave example about above.
  
I won't tell you that insisting you must be paid for playing music instruments for a Church will condemn you to a lifetime of penury without remedy, but I will tell you that if you play music instruments for a Church without insisting that you must be paid, GOD almighty himself will make sure you're rewarded, and God's rewards are larger, better and more long lasting than you can ever phantom.

Render your playing of music instruments as a service to God and do it with joy and gladness. You won't regret it.

I repeat, you won't regret it!

Remain Blessed!

Religion / How to Focus Inwards and Outwards For Great Results by reallifegospel(m): 12:03pm On Jan 26
Staying Focused, Inwards and Outwards for great results

Time and time again, you must have heard the word focus.
Stay Focused is what people tell you all the time, what does it mean to be focused and what is the significance of being focused in a man's life?
 
Man is the scientific, spiritual and psychological outcome of his focus. What a man stays focused on for a very long time is what he transforms into. What a man manifests in his life like fruits that emerge from a blooming tree is the outcome of what he or she has focused on for a long time.
  If a man stays focused on pornographic magazines, pornographic websites, all kinds of junks and jargons plus more and more garbage that quenches the light within, he or she becomes a manifestation of that which he or she has stayed visually, mentally and psychologically fixated on for a very long time.
If a man stays focused on constructive information (such as the type found in God's Words) he becomes a well constructed and developed creature after a long time of fixation.

  There are two factors that brings about the manifestation of what you focus on like fruits from a tree.

1. Visual, Psychological and Mental Fixation:
   A terrible and self destructive addiction like pornography does not only stop at the visual aspect of focus, it also spreads out to the psychological and mental aspect of it thus such immoral images remain in both the conscious and unconscious mind for a long time waiting for opportunities to manifest.
   If on the other hand what you've focused on for a very long time is the Word of God which the book of John chapter 1 calls Christ Jesus himself, over time it will manifest itself and become flesh in your life.

2. The length of time you stay focused on the fixation:
   It takes time to not just become visually fixated on the wrong or right information, but also to meditate (mental replay) on what you've seen or heard until it graduates to the mental and psychological level of fixation. At this level it's a vice or virtue that's ready to manifest.
  When a virtue or vice manifests itself it is said to have become flesh and it becomes something that everyone notices about you.
  Virtues come from staying focused on good information for a very long time. Vices come from staying focused on wrong information for a very long time.

Man has 2 types of focus:
1. The Outward Focus and
2. The Inwards Focus.

1. Outward Focus:
   This is what a man looks at or listens to from the outside of himself. Man by default is likened to a vessel that contains what it has been filled with and what a man gets filled with is the outcome of what he's focused on outside-in.
   The outside-in focus is the first stage of focus, that's why infants exhibit the outcomes of their immediate environment before education, peer pressure and other factors alter that.
  The scriptures recommend that we focus outwardly on Jesus Christ, the author and the finisher of our faith. (Hebrews 12:2)
   What does the term "author and finisher" mean?
It simply means the power to start a good virtue at it's seed stage and continue to nurture it character-wise until it becomes a great virtue (fruit) that brings praises to God.

2. Inwards Focus:
   What you have inside you is already there but it's stirred up by what you focus on outside-in. It starts from outside-in then it manifests from inside out.
   Now inwards focus is more important in critical times than outward focus because there are moments when being caught up in the storms of life can distort what you see when you look outwards.
If you internalize the Word of God and you see a raging storm of confusion whenever you look outwards, what you've internalised already will be the calm and the peace you have in the trying situations or circumstances.
    Confusion is the outcome of focusing on the Word of God and garbage at the same time and knowing what garbage is, garbage should be thrown out of one's mind immediately.
    Pornographic materials, wrong information, bad news, negative opinions of ungodly men or women about godliness or godly people, plus a whole lot of rubbish and nonsense we see in movies, novels, magazines etc are all garbage compared to God's Word. "Throw them out of your mind".
   A virtuous life that causes men to give praises to God and does not cause ungodly men or women to find an opportunity to blaspheme God's name.
  Is the outcome of staying focused on God's Word and God's Word alone. That is the source of true power!

reallifegospel:
The 4 kinds of Audience of the GOSPEL:

There are 4 kinds of audience of the GOSPEL.
Not the gospel alone but every kind of industrial endeavour that enables you to carry out some form of mass influence or the other, I'll talk about this topic in terms of the gospel.

Greetings to you beloved.
Let's dive right into the matter.

#1. THE IGNORANTS:
  These are the ones who are in the dark, the ones who don't know a thing about what you're trying to talk about. They can't see the light, thus they are not categorised as enlightened.

  In this category of people, there are two distinct groups.

(i) Those who are ignorant but are willing to learn:
  These are the ones who are ignorant but are willing to learn. They are humble and avail themselves every opportunity to learn. There's hope for an ignorant man who is willing to learn.

(ii) Those who are ignorant and unwilling to learn:
These are the ones who are in darkness, yet they don't desire to become enlightened. They don't avail themselves to every opportunity or chance to learn. Such kind of Folks cannot be helped and there's barely any hope for an ignorant man who is unwilling to learn.

Ignorance is not an excuse, what you don't know can hurt you real good. When you don't know, you don't know.

#2. THOSE WHO LISTEN BUT NEITHER LEARN NOR APPLY WHAT THEY HEAR TO THEIR LIVES:
    These are Folks who pay attention to information, but they only listen. They don't learn or take down any form of mental or actual notes.
  The teachings slide across their ears, or as we proverbially say; knowledge gets in through one ear and leaks out through the other ear.

Such kind of individuals suffer the same fate as the ignorant.

#3. THOSE WHO LISTEN AND LEARN, BUT DON'T APPLY WHAT THEY HEAR TO THEIR LIVES:
   These are Folks who pay attention to information.
They listen, they learn or take down mental or actual notes, but they don't apply it to life.
  The teachings end up on paper, or in notebooks but never is one bit of the teachings applied to their lives.

Such kind of individuals still suffer the same fate as the ignorant.

#4. THOSE WHO LISTEN AND LEARN AND APPLY WHAT THEY LEARN TO LIFE:
  These are Folks who pay attention to information. They listen, they learn or take down mental or actual notes, and they apply what they learn to life.
  The teachings end up on paper, or in notebooks and all the teachings or information are applied to their lives.

Such kind of individuals will not suffer the same fate as the ignorant. Such kind of individuals live sophisticated lives that are devoid of the troubles, perils and travails of ignorance.

Which group do you belong to.
I'll recommend the 4th group because they're the only ones who live their lives to the fullest.

They're blessed because they obey what's written in
James 1:22-25 KJV
"But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed."

reallifegospel:
"Some Folks don't believe that life is a game, but those who know that life is a big game and to win big you have to come out and play, they also know that the keys to winning the game of life are not found in bragging, mewing, bellowing and making a lot of noise like about worldly things and worldly affairs (even amidst the brethren who are called to be the light and life in a dark world.)"
Your degree in the University of the Holy Spirit is the difference maker in this game, if you're just one big and empty fellow, even if you fill up the void with just money and riches, your emptiness will eventually become an open show for all to see!

Religion / Re: Fulfilment: The Heaven Of Finding Your Purpose In Life by reallifegospel(m): 2:59am On Jan 13
reallifegospel:
Fulfilment: The Heaven of finding your purpose in life

Finding your purpose and fulfilling your purpose and Why it's as important as life itself:

Take a good look at the life of a man or woman who missed the mark (failed to fulfil purpose), no matter how good he/she looks on the outside, they've got hell fire burning and raging in them because they didn't reach the heaven of their lives.

What is the heaven of a man's life?
The heaven of a man's life is his attainment of fulfilment of his dreams and the manifestations of the good will of God for his life here on earth as it is in heaven.
The phrase "here on earth as it is in heaven"
Means that one is able to manifest the heavenly plan or blueprint of God for his/her life as it's written exactly on the scripts of heaven in the hands of God when he created you and deployed your existence here in the humanity of man's earthly existence.

This means if your life is not an exact "print out" of the original blueprint of God in his heavenly blueprint of your purpose of existing here on earth as it is in heaven, then life is a picture of hell's purpose for human existence.

So fulfilling your purpose is as important as life itself. Being alive is of no use if your life is not a "print out" of the heavenly plan or blueprint of God in his will for your life.

For example;

Politicians who misrule or misgovern the people do so because they are not "printing out" the exact copy of God's blueprint for man's leadership or rulership over his fellow men.
Which if they do, they can manifest heaven on earth as it is in heaven.

Parents who become a thorn in the flesh to their offsprings become thus because they didn't fulfil anything else except raising the children.
Now raising children is not dishonourable, but if after raising them you become the clog in their wheels of actual progress in life, it's as good as wasting all the time and years you put into bringing them into existence.

Sometimes we ask: why do we have the kind of parents we have when there are awesome and wonderful parents here and there?

Now imagine that the likes of Bill Gates, Aliko Dangote, Elon Musk, Femi Otedola, Jeff Bezos and so on were your parents?
Would the toxic amount of pressure you feel to place a plate of food on every table be as much as it is? Now I know it's unwise for the child of a rich man to relax and do little or nought because his/her parents are always there for them. (I'm also not advising anyone to be irresponsible).

Now the likes of the wealthy men I mentioned above have fulfilled their purpose in life.
When you fulfil purpose on earth, life rewards you with so much wealth and riches that men cannot phantom or let me simply say "understand".

Such kind of fulfilled men or women don't feel the need to turn themselves into gold statues that suck the life out of their children because they didn't spend their life only raising children because a man who doesn't see himself or herself as a gold statue of Nebuchadnezzar (i.e a god that must be worshipped) know that he or she exists to serve others just as Jesus said;

"The greatest among you is the one who gets down to serve others"
Matthew 23:11-12


This means that losing yourself in service to others is the way to become a god amongst men.
No man transforms into a god by holding onto himself, men who lose themselves in service to others are the ones who become gods and real gods don't force men to worship them, real gods impact peoples lives so positively that people choose to worship them by themselves!

Celebrities / Re: "Celibacy is Not Scientifically Possible" says Apostle Constance C. Friday by reallifegospel(m): 2:58am On Jan 13
reallifegospel:
Interviewer:
So Sir, how does that explain the fact that celibacy is not scientifically possible?

Apostle Constance C. Friday:
A Man/Woman has to be biologically abnormal to have no desire for sex at all. Even the asexual individuals in the LGBTQ analysis often manifest sexual inclinations once in a while but since your spirituality should be prioritised above your biology, you should CONTROL your sexual desires and not allow your sexual desires control you.
Only animals or beasts are controlled by their biological needs, that's why this cuts across sex, it also spreads into man's craving for food, and other forms of lust, greed, emotions and desires.
If the clergyman sees a woman he feels attracted to, he should restrain himself from falling into sexual sin with her. Especially if he interacts with her regularly, the same thing is applicable to the clergywoman.
If he/she is unmarried and finds that woman or man constantly attractive, desirable and pleasing to his/her heart and soul, then he/she should get married to that woman or man, so when the biology kicks in, it doesn't become the opportunity for Satan to strike.
If you're married already and the same thing happens you must restrain yourself lest you fall into the sin of adultery.
If you fall into the sin of adultery, get back up and don't fall into that sin again.
If you fall into the sin of adultery or sexual immorality over and over and over again, you need to ask for prayers to be made.
Pray to God to strengthen you to stand against the temptations to indulge in all forms of sexual immorality.

Interviewer:
You still haven't clearly explained why celibacy is not scientifically possible Sir!

Apostle Constance C. Friday:
I just did. I said that beasts or animals are controlled by their scientific or biological desires for sex, food, mates etc
But transformed beings who are not mere beasts control their scientific or biological needs or desires.
This technically means that celibacy is not scientifically possible but it's spiritually possible.
That's why I said when you pray, the spiritual strength to maintain celibacy or to confine one's sexual activities into the framework of marriage is given or provided by God and the body of Christ can be protected from all kinds of attacks by Satan and his agents.

Interviewer: Nelson Okoduwa.
Celebrities / Re: "Celibacy is Not Scientifically Possible" says Apostle Constance C. Friday by reallifegospel(m): 2:58am On Jan 13
reallifegospel:
Interviewer:
When you say how you do it, what do you mean?

Apostle Constance C. Friday:
There are 2 sides to this "how you do it" that I just said.
You know, sexual matters are not freely discussed within the religious circles but it is happening, and we're seeing a lot of ignominious headlines in the news, plus it's always a big one when a clergyman is involved.
Few months ago, on a Saturday night precisely; a Bishop went to the hotel to have sex with a female church member who was his secret lover for sometime. While they were having sex, the lady died and the Bishop sneaked out of the hotel room and went to church the next day to perform his priestly duties like nothing had happened last night only for the police officers to come midway through the church service to arrest and take him into custody. If this happened to an ordinary person who wasn't a clergyman, the press may not find it sensational enough to publish, but because it was a well known Bishop in Abia State, it was on the front page and awash all over the online blogs.
This means there is this belief that all clergymen are not mortal, thus they're not expected to engage in activities that are sexual in nature at all at all and that is one of Satan's weapons of attack against the preaching of the gospel.

Interviewer:
So this means from what you've just said that clergymen are mortal and should engage in sex when the need arises?

Apostle Constance C. Friday:
No, that's not what I said.
Having sex with someone you're not married to is not the right way to do the sexual thing.
That's why Apostle Paul said, it's better to get married so you could overcome the temptations to fall into sexual sin and express all your passion with your spouse.
Read 1 Corinthians 7:8-9

What's worse than having sex with someone who's not your spouse is having sex with them without consent. That's rape!

Those are the two sides I'm talking about.

"Celibacy is not scientifically possible but it's spiritually possible."
- Apostle Constance C. Friday Ani

Interviewer:
Did you swear an oath of celibacy during your ordination as a gospel minister?

Apostle Constance C. Friday:
No I didn't, although we took an oath of dedication to doing the right things at all times in accordance to the scriptures, we didn't outrightly swear an oath of celibacy like my colleagues in the Roman Catholic section of my faith. I respect and admire my Roman Catholics colleagues, but it's not scientifically possible to maintain or keep an oath of celibacy because the human body is designed to go against celibacy.

Interviewer:
Does that mean you endorse that clergymen/women should engage freely in sexual action when they feel like?

Apostle Constance C. Friday:
I don't endorse that, neither do I condemn those who slip and fall into such acts due to the nature of man. Like I said it's not scientifically possible to remain a celibate for life, if anyone is such it must really be a great deal of sacrifice and in fact, it's not exactly in tandem with God's design of man to procreate.
Man's desire to engage in sex or sexual actions is God given. It's a supernatural design installed in man to ensure continuity of life, so sex is not a bad thing.
What makes it become bad is how you do it.

Interviewer:
When you say how you do it, what do you mean?

Apostle Constance C. Friday:
There are 2 sides to this "how you do it" that I just said.
You know, sexual matters are not freely discussed within the religious circles but it is happening, and we're seeing a lot of ignominious headlines in the news, plus it's always a big one when a clergyman is involved.
Religion / Re: Unfulfilled Prophecies: Why and What To Do. by reallifegospel(m): 12:18pm On Jan 11
reallifegospel:
Unfulfilled Prophecies: Why and What to do.
It's the onset of a brand new year and so many clergymen are dishing out lots of prophecies.
This will happen, that will happen, pray against this, pray against that, I see this, I see that, etc, etc.

Some of them make us scared, a bit worried, while some excite us (Especially if the Prophet predicts good events).
However, sometimes the Prophet prophesies and we don't see it happen either exactly how he or she said it would happen or otherwise.

First I need to let us know that Prophecies are very important parts of the ministry, if not our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ himself wouldn't prophesy about the last days and the book of Revelations, plus all the books of the major and minor prophets would not be included in the Holy Bible.

1 Thessalonians 5:19-22 (KJV) says:
19 "Quench not the Spirit.
20 Despise not prophesyings.
21 Prove all things;
hold fast that which is good.
22 Abstain from all appearance of evil."


From the way it was highlighted above, it's pretty clear that despising or inhibiting the ministry or the ministrations of prophecies in the church is an act of quenching the spirit of God.
And what is more dangerous than driving a car with no brakes or steering wheels is running a church or ministry where prophets are gagged and prophecies are not welcomed.

However to my dear Prophets; it's important to demonstrate some restraint, especially if the act of prophesying could disrupt some orthodox processes and create some bit of opprobrium.

Anyways, i'm a big fan of Prophecies and genuine harbingers of the Prophetic ministry are welcome at the Real Life Gospel Network.

NOW LET'S LOOK AT THE OMEN OF UNFULFILLED PROPHECIES.
Sometimes the Prophet says that this and that will happen or occur and then these and those will follow.
But we all wait, expect and anticipate and it doesn't happen.
Nothing happens, in fact the opposite seems to be happening!
We witnessed this during the last elections.
Now talking about the last elections may cause some of my readers some bit of pain.
We all know that there were all kinds of prophecies that candidate XYZ will win but it ended up being candidate ABC winning!

WHY DO SOME PROPHECIES NOT MANIFEST:
When Prophecies don't come to pass, most People point their left index fingers at the Prophet.
Even the best of Prophets e.g Prophet T.B. Joshua (of blessed memory) had some prophecies that hit the cross bar.

You know what I mean. smiley

That doesn't mean they're fake and that doesn't mean there are no false prophets. There actually are those who allow THE LYING SPIRIT to use them to deceive the King to go to war and have himself killed!
~ Read 1 Kings 22:5-12

Why are unfulfilled prophecies rampant lately and what are the causes and what can you do as a genuine believer to keep yourself from being led down the hole?

Here are the 2 main loops that intertwine to cause even genuine prophecies to sometimes hit the cross bar:

1. The Spirit of the audience:
There are two types of audience
(i) An Individual and,
(ii) Collective audience (Group of People).

In the book of 1 Kings 22:5-12 King Ahab was the kind of person or individual who didn't welcome genuine prophets and genuine prophecies. The brutal genuineness or authenticity of the prophecies of the Prophet Elijah made the King Ahab hate him and on some occasions he called Prophet Elijah the enemy of Israel.

When it was time for war, all the Prophets who were called to minister to King Ahab were all telling lies.

Were these Prophets fake? No, not really!
All the Prophets he called to the platform were genuine but they were all telling lies to psyche up the King and get their cheques after the party was done!

There are some sensitive situations where the Prophets decide to make prophetic declarations that are emotional bandages or embalmments (instead of the harsh prophetic realities).

Only Folks who're sensitive in the Spirit won't be let astray in such moments!


2. The response to the Prophecy:
When a prophecy is declared, the actions that follow can either cause the prophecy to be fulfilled or vice-versa.
A genuine prophet can prophesy to you that you will be awarded a billion dollar contract at your place of work.
You have to prepare yourself in all ambits or areas where you ought to be ready for landing such an opportunity, if not it may come and slip through your keeper's gloves!
How People respond to a prophecy determines what happens next.
I remember recently I was sent by God to prophesy to a popular multinational business corporation that a big fall was imminent if certain things were not done.
Now, this business corporation was doing very well across the nation and as at the time I was trying to deliver the prophecy to them they were ahead of their rivals in some important parts of the marketplace.
Their response to my prophecy was quite poor, and they even began to say other things that didn't sound good to one's auditory perceptions.
Few years later, their business corporation had lost so much grip and control in the marketplace while their rivals took over every nook and cranny of the marketplace.
That business corporation as I speak is presently clutching to a straw to stay relevant in the economic stratosphere.
If they'd responded affirmatively to the prophecy I delivered that time, that wouldn't have happened.

So it's not really about the prophet or the prophecy but how you respond to the prophecy that determines what happens next.

A prophecy was released last year that a particular well known public figure who's presently in jail for political reasons would be set free.
But the way this particular individual and his group treat Prophets, and respond to the Gospel is the reason why he's still locked up right now.

I have this to say to him:

"Bro, you can see that the person who committed the same kind of offence you committed at the other end of the map has been released, while you're still locked up.
If you stop treating the Prophets of God the way you treat them. If you repent from your sins and accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, you will be set free"


Genuine Prophecies from genuine prophets will come to pass if the actions you take in response to the prophecies they bring to you are affirmative and not negative.
