Gathering or Scattering?

Imagine a scenario where God is doing a work in a man’s life, by giving him counsel, or rebuke so that his life can ultimately change for the better, then someone comes along and frustrates God’s work by telling the man that what God is saying doesn’t really matter, and that he can carry on the way he is because no one is perfect. What this man has just done is scatter what God is doing. God is trying to put the man’s life back in order, but this other man is scattering what God is doing by sowing bad seeds through his advice and words.

Brethren, are we gathering? or are we scattering? When we make negative confessions about our nation, we are scattering, when we make negative confessions about ourselves, we are scattering, and when we do not help others fulfill the plan and purpose of God for their lives, we are scattering God’s plan.

If we are not in alignment with Jesus, then we are against Him, there is no in-between. Aligning with Him in our words and deeds. For example, in a court of law, the Lawyer is either for his client or not he is never in between. Are we helping God to advance the kingdom of God on earth? Are we encouraging our Pastors who labour in the vineyard? Are we yielding to the Holy Spirit? when we do these things and let the Holy Spirit work in us, we gather people to Christ, and when we do not do them we are scattering God’s work. Matthew 12:30 ‘This is war and there is no neutral ground. If you’re not on my side, you’re the enemy; if you’re not helping you are making things worse.’ This is war, The Kingdom of God versus The Kingdom of darkness but whose side are you on?

John 15:16 ‘You didn’t choose me, but I’ve chosen and commissioned you to go into the world to bear fruit. And your fruit will last, because whatever you ask of my Father, for my sake, he will give it to you!’ We must be deliberate about gathering, no one gathers by mistake or by chance. In our confessions, our actions, and the way we relate with ourselves, because the life we live is the sermon we preach.

THE LAST SHALL BE FIRST AND THE FIRST SHALL BE LAST

Matthew 20: 1-16 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard. “About nine in the morning, he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing. He told them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.’ So they went. “He went out again about noon and about three in the afternoon and did the same thing. About five in the afternoon he went out and found still others standing around. He asked them, ‘Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing?’ “‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered. “He said to them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard.’ “When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last ones hired and going on to the first.’ “The wo...

DOING GOOD...

Acts 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power who went about doing good, and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him. Jesus Christ is still in the business of doing good and healing all who are oppressed by the devil. Many people consider being sick as being bed ridden on the hospital bed or being weak in the body and not being able to function well or being mentally sick like being visibly mad. The truth is many are not visibly physically sick or visibly mentally sick but are sick because the devil has oppressed them so much they don’t even know how sick they are, and Jesus came to heal all those who are oppressed by the devil and is still doing so. John 10:10 A thief is only there to steal and kill and destroy. I came so they can have real and eternal life, more and better life than they ever dreamed of ( MSG). The devil comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy, so the devil is on a mission he has a clear pla...

Paid in Full

Jesus paid the ultimate price for our sins so you don’t have to remain a slave to sin. Jesus didn’t die for only a few people, he died for all of us, Jesus doesn’t love just a few people, he loves all of us. But do we know that Jesus loves us so much he died on the cross a shameful death just because he wanted us to live a life free from sin, a life filled with joy, peace, favour and fulfilment and everything that the world cannot offer?. People keep looking for all these things in the world but the world can never offer them these because it is incapable of providing them, it can only provide a copy but not the real thing even though it is wrapped up nicely like it is the real thing it really isn’t. This is why many people are sad , and mental health issues is on the increase, some are killing themselves , some act like they have it all together but they really don’t, some who have been in Christ are not exempt. Christians who know Jesus and have even walked with h...
