Going Over To The Other Side 5
Rev. Akan Effiong
Beloved, I have an express command from the Lord for us to go over to the other side.
You’re going over to take the land, in Jesus’ Name.
This Pandemic cannot stop you, in Jesus’ Name.
God has commanded you to rise and go over to the other side.
What God told Joshua is what He’s telling us.
God said to Joshua in Joshua 1:2a, “Moses my servant is dead…
Beloved, Moses represented the law.
The Bible says in John 1:17, “For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ”.
Beloved, the law is dead.
But the Grace is alive to take you to the other side.
Grace says, “let us go over to the other side”.
In this year of all grace as declared by our presiding Bishop, Dr. Mike Okonkwo, Grace is available to take us to the other side to possess our possessions, in Jesus’ Name.
You’re going over to the other side by the grace of God to take the land, in Jesus’ Name.
In the 2nd part of Joshua 1:2, the Lord says, “Now therefore arise, and go over this Jordan, thou and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel”.
The Lord says, “…arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people…”
Beloved, there must be a rising.
We must arise from this pandemic that wants to keep us bound.
The Bible says, “the whole world lies in wickedness”?
We must arise from the wickedness of this world.
We must arise from the darkness of this world.
Isaiah 60:1-2, “Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and His glory shall be seen upon thee”.
Beloved, it is time to arise.
If you don’t rise, you cannot go over.
The presiding Bishop, Dr. Mike Okonkwo told us the other day to arise from mediocrity, to arise from poverty mentality, to arise from unbelief, to arise from where we are.
Beloved, God is bigger than where you are.
You’re to look from where we are.
You’re to see beyond yourself.
See your state as your constituency,
See your nation as your constituency,
See the world as your constituency.
You’re the heir of the world.
There’s power at work in you to take the land.
You must stretch your faith to take the world.
The power of a rubber band is in stretching.
It is time for you to stretch yourself to take what belongs to you in the land.
If you don’t stretch yourself you’ll remain in one inelastic position.
That is not your portion, in Jesus’ Name.
Beloved, the land is before you.
If you’re willing and obedient, you’ll eat the good of the land,
You’ll not miss your portion in the land,
Lines are fallen unto in pleasant places,
You have a goodly heritage, in Jesus’ Name.
Pandemic or no pandemic, you’ll not miss your portion, in Jesus’ Name.
