OPEN HEAVEN 13 APRIL 2024 MESSAGE
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
John 9:4
The above passage says, “The works of Him that sent me,” not the works of your pastor.
This was why I laughed when I heard someone say to me some time ago, “I’ve been serving you all these years.”
I was amazed, so I responded, “Serving me?!” I thought we were serving God together on the same platform.
You need to really know whom you are serving. Are you serving God, your pastor, or your Head of Department in church?
If you are serving God, you won’t only behave well when your pastor or Head of Department is around, but you will do so at all times because the One you claim to be serving can see you all the time.
For some people, they are serving their Neighbours. They want their Neighbours to see them as fervent Christians, but, in secret, they keep committing sins.
If you really know you are serving God, you will care more about being holy in His eyes than looking holy in public.
Revelations 4:11 says,
“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.”
You are to please God irrespective of the people around you.
Lastly, some people claim to be serving God, but they are actually serving their needs; they come to Him only because they need something from Him.
Everything they do for God is motivated by what they want to get from Him.
For example, this is why there are people who reduce their commitment in church or even stop going altogether once they get the job that they have been praying about.
For some, they are only in church because they are looking for a godly husband or wife to marry.
In John 6:24-26, Jesus sent the people who were coming to Him because of bread and fish away.
Such people’s service is not acceptable to Him; He can see their real intentions and does not count them among His children.
Are you serving God, people or your needs?
Beloved, you need to be very clear about whom you serve. Serve God for who He is, and not for anything else.

consecrated, Lord, to thee.

Take my heart it is thine own;
it shall be thy royal throne,
it shall be thy royal throne.

at thy feet its treasure store.
Take myself, and I will be
ever, only, all for thee,

Thank you Lord for your word
But the Bible does not record Jesus sending people away in John 6: 23-26. This is not to discount the entire writing today, I am no better, but it is simply point out that Jesus did not turn anyone away.
If God is the One we are serving,it is time for the church to repent and go back to God’s word and do his work according to his own ways and not according to our denominational doctrine. We should obey Master Jesus and follow his teachings and practicalise them. We should go back to the apostolic days where they focused on souls than worldly garbage,our focus today in today’s church is to bring souls to church and collect money from them any how,many are discouraged and many have left the church. The examples of Jesus are there for us to… Read more »
