8 Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.

9 How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?

Prayer Points For Open Heavens 5 January 2024

OPEN HEAVEN 5 JANUARY 2025 MESSAGE

There are people who claim to have been called by God, but when you look closely, you will realise that they are only going into ministry because they failed at everything else.

Today, I will be discussing some of the things God looks for in the people He calls into service.

Anyone who will receive the call of God cannot be lazy. God does not call lazy people. If someone is lazy, that fellow is useless to himself or herself.

When you look at everyone whom God called in the Bible, you will discover that they were all busy people.

Jesus called Peter after he had fished all night—lazy people don’t work all night. When Elisha received the call of God through Elijah, he was on the farm plowing with twelve yokes of oxen before him (1 Kings 19:19).

God works with the principle He stated in Luke 16:10: He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

If you are not faithful in the earthly work that you are doing now, God will not commit souls into your hands.

Jesus asked in Mark 8:36, “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?”

In other words, He was saying that just one human soul is more valuable than the entire world.

Therefore, souls are too precious for Him to commit into the hands of a lazy person.

God is not lazy. Jesus Christ said in John 5:17 that His Father works, and He works too. Since Amos 3:3 says that two cannot walk together except they agree, then you cannot work with God if you are lazy.

People who are lazy and want to serve God in ministry are people who want to eat without working; this is totally against the will of God.

2 Thessalonians 3:10 says that those who do not work should not eat. After God created man, the first thing He gave him was work.

And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. Genesis 2:15

The Scripture above shows how important work is to God. Beloved, the next time you see lazy people claiming that God has called them into ministry, stay away from them because God does not call lazy people.

 

OPEN HEAVEN 5 JANUARY 2025 KEY POINT:

God does not call lazy people.

 

OPEN HEAVEN 5 JANUARY 2025 HYMN 12:

ONWARD CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS

1. Onward, Christian soldiers,
marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus going on before!
Christ, the royal Master,
leads against the foe;
Forward into battle, see his banner go!
Refrain:
Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus going on before!
2. At the name of Jesus
Satan’s host doth flee;
On, then, Christian soldiers,
on to victory!
Hell’s foundations quiver
at the shout of praise;
Brothers, lift your voices,
loud your anthems raise!
3. Like a mighty army
moves the church of God;
Brothers, we are treading
where the saints have trod;
We are not divided; all one body we,
One in hope and doctrine, one in charity.
4. Crowns and thrones may perish,
Kingdoms rise and wane;
But the church Jesus
constant will remain:
Gates of hell can never
‘gainst that church prevail
We have Christ’s own promise
and that cannot fail
5.Onward, then, ye people,
join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices,
in the triumph song;
Glory, praise and honour,
unto Christ the King;
This through countless ages,
men and angels sing.

Father God,thank you for our lifes and everything,take all the glory Sir. God does not call lazy people and God does not call 419 people that change the law of God to favour themselves in doing his work. For God’s sake let Mal 3:10 be done as God has commanded. God knows that there be needy in his house that is why he says bring your tithe that there may be food in my store house. Any Church that does not obey God fully is not a Church. May God open the eyes of our leaders to see all errors… Read more »
