WELCOME TO DECEMBER 2015: OUR MONTH OF THE INGATHERING

WELCOME TO DECEMBER 2015: OUR MONTH OF THE INGATHERING

Ex.23:14, 16; 34:22

“Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto me in the year. 

… and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labours out of the field.”

“And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end.”

As we come to the last month of our year of Divine Establishments, there is no better time to call to mind the many good things the Lord has done for us to prove His faithfulness to His word for the year. At the end of last year, He assured us that this shall be to us our year of divine establishments. Even a blind person would observe that God has kept His word to us this year. 

He has graciously declared this month to be our month of ingathering. From our text scripture above, ingathering is a feast of the Lord the Children of Israel were commanded to keep in commemoration of the Lord’s faithfulness in causing them to gather the fruits of their labour at every year’s end. So far, this year, the Lord has helped us to embark a series of in reach programs to the body of Christ to help us become more established in faith. He led us to refresh ourselves with the foundational truths of the gospel and to start going out of our own fellowship to reach out to other members of the body of Christ with these truths. So far, our mission outreaches has touched the lives of ministers in the Benin Republic totaling about one hundred ministers representing ministries from 20 communities in attendance at three outreaches held in May and October respectively. 

We also recorded various testimonies from these outreaches ranging from healings to people finding their respective places in destiny. We embarked on series of outreaches in Ghana, the United States and Nigeria that saw the birth of a new fellowship Center for The Well-being Center in Badagry in Lagos State Nigeria. We also saw the hand of God at work as he enabled us to start another branch of Kingdom Joint Heirs Family Churches in Suhum in the greater Accra Region of Ghana. Earlier in the year, precisely in March, Kingdom Heirs Ministries Int’l was incorporated in the United States and presently, we are publishing the gospel through books and the internet here.

Also, the Lord has enabled us to purchase real estate debt free in Nigeria and Ghana respectively to protect us from the burden of paying rents when we do not have to. Time and space would fail me to itemize all the Lord has done that we are aware of. I believe that He has done more behind the scenes than what we could ever be conscious of in time. This year alone, we have embarked on several journeys to different countries both far and near and the Lord had protected us through them all.

We have chosen to number all what we can see the Lord doing and give Him the glory. In this month of ingathering therefore, our focus shall be on recalling all the testimonies arising from the word of the Lord to us and giving Him the glory for them all. To this end, we are calling for testimonies from every one of you who has been blessed by the word of the Lord through this Ministry this year so that we can celebrate God’s goodness with you. The more we testify, the more we would experience triumph. 

This month therefore, we shall be looking at a series I title: “The overcoming power of the blood of the Lamb and our testimonies.” This theme is drawn from Revelation 12:11 where we are made to understand that we overcame the devil by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimonies.   

As this year comes to an end, you shall witness the dawn of a greater manifestation of the presence and power of God in your life in the precious name of the Lord Jesus Christ. 

If you desire to know the Lord in this intimate way, it starts with becoming a part of His family. You can do so right away by saying the following prayer out loud and you will become born again:

Heavenly Father, 

Have mercy on me a sinner. Today, I believe that Jesus died for me and you raised Him from the dead for my Justification. I therefore declare that Jesus Christ is my Saviour and Lord and from today, I renounce the fatherhood of Satan and embrace Jesus Christ as my Saviour and Lord. Thank you for this father in Jesus’ name!

Amen.
