#Desire Dream and Destiny Book|| chpt-2

We are still looking at positive desire. I said, the longer it takes, the better the results it will produce. I also stated that some of you are about to discover why you needed that extra time to get it right. Listen to this: building a vision is expecting the fulfillment of a desire. It is like constructing a structure, it takes time, but to look upon a finished building takes only a moment.

The vision comes quickly, but to put it up physically, it consumes a lot of time and resources. It requires a great team. Therefore, it is very important that you are not on anybody’s timetable, but on God’s. It is you who is longing for it; it is you who desires to see it happen, so pick your team wisely. Choose your seasons right as a master-builder for the two steps; Desiring and Dreaming, and both are obtained privately. Only destiny can show whether you ever had a desire that became such a great dream. Until we see what you are capable of producing, we are not impressed by your dreams. It happened to us here at the Miracle Centre Cathedral. A personal desire became a community dream and I began to see, and experience a shift in people’s commitment over a period of time. One day, I lost the entire building committee. The chairperson was the first to leave. Amazingly, the main reason for their leaving was based on an assumption they had, that the dream was too big to be realized. That it was going to cost a lot of money which according to them, we could not raise and that it would take a lot of time. All their concerns were genuine, but one thing they had not considered was that I had passed the desire level and the dream level. At that time, I was already more than convinced that it could be done. When the great team I had selected decided to leave, I was given the great opportunity to be the leader of the dream-team.

Brethren, never make the mistake of appointing someone else to lead that which he does not have such a desire for to the point that they begin to dream it until it becomes their way of life. During that time, two of my dear friends paid a visit; the first one visited me before the building plans were drawn, and as soon as he returned, he improvised what he thought we needed. When I went to meet with his team who had promised to finance us, upon looking at our plans they all concluded that I was fancy and that they themselves could not afford such a building even in America. My other friend came at the time when we had started construction and were at the balcony level of the building. He gasped for air three times and then he said to me in front of my wife and staff; “this is big, too big for you at your level, it will kill you, leave it alone. I will go and send you a plan, an easy one which will not take you a long time”. As though that was not enough, he turned to my wife and said to her; “it seems that your husband is stubborn, do you want to lose him? This building will kill him, mine nearly killed me”. After all this, I made certain resolutions. First of all, I let go of all friends who could not see what I was seeing, regardless of who they were. Secondly, I cancelled out all plans and went back to principles. Thirdly, I was convinced that this was my desire and it was my dream for my destiny, and if anything was to happen, it was going to be ME believing the dream.

As I conclude this text: I found a great friend in my wife, my new team and in the power of the Holy Spirit who anointed me to release miracles in people’s lives to an extent of raising a Korean woman out of a comatose state for six months, and as a result, the miracle of the glasses was released to us.

Desire Dream and Destiny Book|| chpt-2

In our previous text, we said that once you locate your desire, do not compromise, but just pay the price to get it.  We took a case study on Jacob who found two women, where one of them could achieve things very easily and the other one had great difficulty in achieving. However, in the end, both women were capable of achieving greatness. We also said, though Leah was hated, she kept her delight in the Lord and as a result, she generated enough power to bring forth a child in a very hateful situation. When we look at Jacob hating Leah, one can only imagine that it was he [Jacob] who hated himself. This is because of the choices he made which put him to hard labor for his desire for fourteen years.

Brethren, anything that seemed to be the reason for Jacob’s predicament received his wrath. I want you to see the power of desire because once you begin to locate what you desire, or what you want, you are going to work for it. You should also know this for sure, that you do not have to pay double for that which has already been paid for. There was no reason why Jacob and Rachel hated Leah; she did not throw herself into it. You see, when we choose not to forgive, we have chosen to walk in hatred and that is a negative desire. It is probably the reason why Rachel’s miracle of child birth was delayed. That is why when Jacob finally got her, she did not live up to his expectations because she was barren. Such are the challenges that will come because of a negative desire.

Sometimes, even after you have gotten a hold of your desire, you may not immediately get the results you have been waiting for, but just keep on watching and holding on. The reason is that the longer you stay there, the more it will work for your good so that the scripture may be fulfilled which says; And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to [His] purpose [Romans 8:28]. The longer it takes, the better the results it will produce. All things should work for good because we desire good. However, if it takes longer than it was expected, do not become negative or else you will end up prolonging the process.

The bible tells us to count it all joy when we fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of our faith produces patience. But let patience have [its] perfect work, that we may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing [James 1:2-4]. Beloved, you are about to discover that you needed that extra time to get it right!

Positive Desire – Part1

#Desire Dream and Destiny Book|| chpt-2

We have been studying the power to desire from my book #Desire Dream and Destiny. We discovered that in order for our desires to be fulfilled, we must delight ourselves in the Lord who is the giver of those desires. Today, I want us to focus on the Positive Desire.

In the previous text we saw Jacob, a man who had positive desire to marry Rachel that he ended up working for 14years to get the desire of his heart [Genesis 29:20-30]. Jacob wanted to be prosperous, so he looked and judged between Leah and Rachel. He decided that if he were to marry Rachel, they would be successful in life; they would build up a powerful team.

Positive desire sees the end from the beginning and it must not choose from the entire village, but from the same home. What I mean is that it has to be from a source which is good, great or the greatest and not from sources that are bad or mediocre. If your desire is going to be very effective, you must have the ability to choose very well because no one is going to do it for you. YOU HAVE TO MAKE THE CHOICE YOURSELF; YOU HAVE TO DESIRE IT, NAME IT AND CLAIM IT. In addition, through your hard work, sweat, prayer and dedication you will get your desire fulfilled.  Once you locate your desire, do not compromise, just pay the price to get it. Leave the company of talkers and become a doer. I believe there were so many eligible young men around Laban’s household, but they failed to pay the price to get either of the girls.

James 1:25 reads, But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does. Jacob knew that he was now in Laban’s household and had been sent there by Mom and Dad. He found two women; one of them could achieve things very easily, but the other one had great difficulty in achieving things though both depended on God. For both women, at the end were capable of achieving greatness. Therefore, to choose from such a scenario you must see between the lines, and if you’re in the same homestead, you have to choose one instead of the other. The bible says; And when the LORD saw that Leah [was] hated, he opened her womb: but Rachel [was] barren [Genesis 29:31]. Though Leah was hated, she kept her delight in the LORD and as a result, she generated enough power to bring forth in a very hateful situation. Jacob, her husband, together with her sister Rachel hated her, but the Lord opened her womb.

As I conclude this text: it does not matter which circumstances you are faced with right now, delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart [Psalm 37:4].

#Desire Dream and Destiny Book|| chpt-1, Psalms 37:4

We have been talking about the power of desire and we discovered that delighting in the Lord is one of the ways to get our desires fulfilled. The scripture says; delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart [Psalms 37:4]. Brethren, why delight in the Lord? Because it is He who gives us the desires of our hearts and the power to create them. I do not know whom I am talking to, but we must generate the power in order for our desires to be fulfilled. We should not delight in the desires, but in the one who grants and fulfills them. Therefore, the first step in having your desires fulfilled is delighting yourself in the giver of your desires.

The bible says; …what things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them [Mark 11:24]. This power for your desire is generated by faith. That is why we delight in the Lord because we believe that all things are possible to him that believeth [Mark 9:23]. Listen to this: delighting in the Lord will draw the desire to you, and let us take a look at Genesis 29, where Jacob desired to marry Rachel and the bible does not tell us that Rachel loved him. It rather states that; Jacob loved her, he desired her, he wanted to have her for a wife, but something happened and things began to go wrong. Circumstances put a hedge between Jacob and his desire, and he ended up working for seven years to have her. On the wedding night, he was duped into marrying Leah instead of the desire of his heart [Genesis 29:20-30].

Brethren, when we delight in the Lord, we set our minds on that which we desire, and after locating it, we do whatever it takes to get it. Jacob had to work seven more years for Rachel his desire, under his uncle Laban, a man who constantly deceived him. Why would anybody trust a person who has already tricked them into marrying a wrong person? You see, positive desire cannot be defeated. It will never rest until it obtains its goal and it cannot be denied. In all of Jacob’s life, he desired the best. That is why he desired the birthright of Esau his brother. Though he grew up in a tent, he knew life could be better. Jacob’s desire for Rachel made him to work harder than he had ever worked before in order to marry her.The bible says in Proverbs 16:26 [GNT] that; A laborer’s appetite makes him work harder, because he wants to satisfy his hunger.

As I conclude this text: we have to remember that Jacob was originally a chef, not a shepherd. He was a cook, but he had to change trades in order to have his desire met. Those who have desires are hardworking; they put work before pleasure, because they delight in the giver of their desires. Though Laban lied to him, Jacob delighted in this one thing; that “if I have been given that which I did not work for, I will surely get that which I desire or I am entitled to”. Positive desire is what produces faith, which is the delighting in the Lord who makes us have that which we desire. Friends, I trust you have been blessed with chapter one of my book, #Desire Dream and Destiny.

#Desire Dream and Destiny Book|| chpt-1, Psalms 37:4

In our previous text on the power of desire, we discovered that once you are not afraid to desire, then you will never be afraid to receive. This is because positive desire causes you to dream since every dreamer is destined to win. I want us to pick it up from there in regard to my book titled “Desire, Dream and Destiny”.

Everyone, say like you mean it: I am destined to win! Friends, I strongly believe that desire is power and any power is either positive or negative. Let me give you an example; if there are two persons running for an office of great influence and power, the one with a positive desire will want to see people’s lives transformed. On the contrary, the one with a negative desire will want power to satisfy his selfish ends. Positive desire starts with one person, but it ends up blessing others too. What I mean is this; the Almighty God always want to give you something, but you may not know how He will give it to you.

One day, I desired a Boss suit, but it was very expensive and I could not afford it at that time. So I asked God for it and I believed that my request was granted. I rejoiced and that is how I got it. A few years ago, I flew from the United States of America to Denmark to preach.  I realised that the airline which I used misplaced my bags. When I arrived in Copenhagen, I did not have any suitable clothes to wear, yet I was supposed to preach that very day. All I had was a T-shirt, a pair of jean trousers, a jacket I was wearing, snickers and a small bible I was carrying. To cut the long story short, I filled the form for the lost baggage and they [airliner] told me; “let us take you and buy you some clothes’’. To my amazement, the shop we went to at the airport had only clothes by Boss. I picked out exactly the one which I had desired to buy sometime back. I told them that it looked nice on me. Curiously enough, it was the only suit in the shop that could fit me. As if that was not enough, the airline company bought it with shoes to match. It is then that I realized that God had permitted my bags to get lost for just a while in order to grant me my desires.

Brothers and sisters, at the end of it all, the shop registered a sale and I had my Boss outfit. Psalms 37:4 tells us to; delight ourselves also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. Many people desire, but end up not receiving what they hoped for, simply because they lack knowledge about the power of desire. For any power to exist, it must be generated; hydroelectricity is generated, so is solar power as well as all other forms of power that I know of. This is how the power of positive desire is generated. Saints, to delight is to ‘have great pleasure.’ In other words, it is having the joy that provides great and continuous pleasure. Therefore, you must start to generate the power for your desire right away by being delightful, because…. the Joy of the Lord is your strength [Nehemiah 8:10]. This is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth; until that which you desire brings you great pleasure, you will have to stick with it.

As I conclude this text: child of God, delight yourself in your maker and He will give you the desires of your heart, and that is when you will be able to relocate to the place of your dreams. To delight in the Lord is the only option left for a dreamer with a positive desire to acquire the fire and the power needed to make it happen!

#Desire Dream and Destiny Book|| chpt-1, Mark 11:24

Child of God, once you are not afraid to desire, you will never be afraid to receive. Heaven is waiting to receive your desires in order to turn them into a dream that will change you and your environment forever. Therefore, we start by desiring positively and then we dream powerfully. For every potential destiny, there must be a reckoning and positive desire. This will cause one to dream and every dreamer is destined to win.

How many of us sometimes look at somebody else and envy them for what they have? The truth of the matter is that we envy achievers for their accomplishments. Sometimes you may look at someone and say; I do not know what happened to me, but I am supposed to be where that person is. Other times, it is positions and location which others occupy that make them seem to be far ahead of you. They seem to succeed quickly in whatever they do and yet when you look at yourself, you wonder where you are missing it. You may even begin to look for something around on which to place the blame for your predicament. You blame it on your shoes, your eyes or your hair. You also begin to blame your father because you received your weird looking nose from him. Oftentimes, we are bombarded by what is happening on the other side like the things they do. This is always a great challenge and you may even begin to wonder whether there is something wrong with you or with your family.

Well, I am going to give you some nuggets that will completely transform your life and you will never wish you were somebody else. On the contrary, people are going to begin to wish they were like you and you will be amazed. Jesus said in Mark 11:24 that; therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. The Lord permitted us to use positive desires to obtain or receive whatsoever we believe for. The word DESIRE simply means to ‘long for, crave, to ask for, to yearn or the wish to enjoy, fancy, have a frenzy for, in a propensity way’. It also means, ‘to have an aspiration.’ However, to have a desire without inspiration is like having a structure without a plan. I have been to many parts of the world, but I am yet to find one person who desires calamity to befall him. As I conclude this text: our problem is that sometimes we desire what somebody else has and yet, it may not even fit us. You may desire someone’s suit; however, if he were to give it to you, it would probably not even fit you. Therefore, we should desire things that do not already belong to someone else, because we will be able to get what fits us.

Dreams and Visions – Part4

996 Views

Genesis 41:16

God speaks to us through dreams and visions. Therefore, we need Him to turn our dreams into visions [Job 33:15]. If God gave you a dream, you have to give it back to Him. Pharaoh got a dream and Joseph told him that His God would give him [Pharaoh] the answer for the dream [Genesis 41:16]. Brothers and sisters, dreams are from God. The wife of Pontius Pilate was not a believer, but she got a dream about Jesus [Matthew 27:19]. That is why you need an interpreter to interpret your dream. Egypt had only one dream interpreter [Joseph].

Dreams and visions are God’s way of talking to us. Let me warn you: not everyone can interpret your dream. Jacob knew what Joseph’s dream was, likewise his brothers. Therefore, be careful about your dream because that is when God talks to us in privacy. If you do not have anybody to interpret your dream, just pray about it because your dream is so powerful that it can take you to Nations. Listen to this: if it took Daniel three days to pray for a dream that was not his to get an interpretation [answer], how long will it take you to pray for yours?

Genesis 41:16 reads; so Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying; [It is] not in me; God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace. When I had taken my daughter to the airport, a certain lady came to me and asked me to interpret her dream.  I just prayed for her and she went disappointed because it is not in me to interpret her dream but it is the Spirit of the Lord who interprets the dreams.

Brethren, dreams are not for manipulation because God talks to us through them and that is why whenever we lay our heads, He speaks [Daniel 7:1]. I really believe 2020 is a year of perfect vision and an overflow is coming. Child of God, the devil comes to steal, kill and destroy, but do not allow him to steal your weapon of giving, praise, joy and prayer. Someone has got to put down their troubles and praise the Lord.

When praise goes up, power comes down. Power to defeat the devil, power to create wealth, power to defeat sin, wonder working power. Praise gives you access, confidence and boldness. Someone praise Jesus. I prophesy: something good is about to happen and your tears are about to turn into laughter. Saints, your dream has cords in it and they are about to take you where you have never been before. Even though you do not understand your dream, this is what the Lord says, I know the plans I have for you, plans to do you good [Jeremiah 29:11].

As I conclude: God has given us a vision as a ministry to publish the Holy Spirit. I remember when we had just began the 77Days of Glory, we used to finish our services almost at 6am early morning every day and that is how we started to write the Holy Spirit books [Psalms 69:11]. Beloved, Heaven has nothing more to give us than the Holy Spirit. He is a person and everything we want is in Him. Dream Interpretation is the work of the Holy Spirit and we cannot leave without Him.
