-
the Bedrock of any Union has to be our
-
love for God and that must supersede
-
everything else because Who who how many
-
people are in the marriage it's just you
-
your spouse and God other people can't
-
dictate how you decide to live your life
-
and if you allow other opinions or other
-
uh maybe different cultural issues or
-
any family issues or any kind of
-
opinions to to have precedence in that
-
early
-
stage you're setting yourself up for for
-
problems and that reminds me of
-
something that Prophet T Joshua said he
-
said that when when we were under
-
training there he said marriage is all
-
about decency and decency is about the
-
Holy Spirit in your life so all of us
-
are on a process the holy spirit is
-
working a process in our heart and
-
definitely the right time brings the
-
right person we shouldn't be looking
-
we've said that before we shouldn't be
-
going around looking actively we should
-
be looking for the presence of God
-
looking for the Holy Spirit to come and
-
abide in our hearts cuz that will is
-
what will create that decency within us
-
a Godly home does not just happen it is
-
built there's only one Foundation the
-
word of God God said to man it's not
-
good for man to be alone the Bible says
-
he made him an helper like him like him
-
holy spirit makes you walk you don't see
-
yourself you see yourself in your wife
-
and she see herself in you that's the
-
mystery when Adam looked and saw Eve he
-
say Flesh of My Flesh and Bones of my
-
bone one Spirit one thought one heart
-
one mind Victory
-
forever today we want to talk about the
-
foundation of our life yes the
-
foundation of our life is our home and
-
this is a time of year that so many
-
people they want to change their life in
-
some way so many of us want to enter a
-
new year with a new resolution looking
-
at how we can change areas of our life
-
that we know are not really on the right
-
path righteousness begins at home and
-
where is home well home is all about our
-
family life that's where Purity begins
-
and that's where we can set our life
-
right and from there everything else
-
will follow and it's such an important
-
topic because if we don't get this right
-
then it's a a big mistake that can Cloud
-
everything else in
-
life this is tandi and Cuda and it's a
-
wonderful blessing to have them with us
-
here today they are friends and partners
-
of the U and we consider them part of
-
the family and today we actually want to
-
listen to their story I believe it will
-
really impact you and impact your faith
-
to know that when you put your life
-
right in God's standard then you open
-
the door to His blessings in your life
-
and why are we having this interview
-
today because so many people are in a
-
situation where maybe they can't seem to
-
choose the right thing because they
-
can't see clearly or Reason clearly
-
because when we live outside of God's
-
standard we are living out outside of
-
the light of God we're actually in
-
darkness and that's why we can't see the
-
way to go or how to follow the right way
-
but once you take that decision in
-
righteousness to obey God's word and set
-
your life right you will see that that
-
strength of conviction will come and
-
that is definitely been the case in
-
their life and I've I'm a witness to see
-
what God has done in their life and I'm
-
so happy for them and we want to share
-
it with you because we believe we're
-
blessed to bless others amen amen
-
absolutely so you're both welcome so
-
much thank you thank you for having us
-
yeah truly God is alive and he works
-
wonders in our lives and if he can do it
-
for them he can do it for you so Tandy
-
can you just tell us let's start from
-
you in a in a nutshell in a summary at
-
the beginning how has God transformed
-
your relationship and your life through
-
obeying God's word and what was love
-
life like before before that happened
-
okay um so yeah um hearing from God and
-
and F in God's will for our lives and
-
listening to God obeying God has
-
transformed my life our lives greatly um
-
I'll just give a little bit of insight
-
of what life was like before um outside
-
of God's Will and um you know in our
-
relationship we
-
were trying to do the right thing but
-
obviously not doing the right thing uh
-
we were not married we
-
were more or less you know as plainly
-
put living in sin you're not living
-
according to to the word of God and
-
there was a lot of confusion because of
-
that when you're not obeying God's word
-
it does bring a lot of confusion there
-
was uh a few tests and tribulations in
-
the relationship um
-
we had a lot of um outside opinion from
-
family members from you know friends
-
everyone had their own opinions it was
-
bringing confusion into our relationship
-
um at one point we were not sure if we
-
were meant to be together if we're going
-
to be together um it was a case of are
-
we going to keep going or are we going
-
to break up um and at that point where
-
there was a lot of confusion um you were
-
also expecting a child wow so that that
-
made everything even the more confusing
-
it made everything even more confusing
-
um to the point where when you listen to
-
outside opinions that are not um Godly I
-
came to the point where I actually
-
thought well I'll be able to live the
-
you know a single woman's life I can be
-
a single mother I can do things for
-
myself I don't need Cuda in my life and
-
that's when um God stepped in and and
-
things started to happen to bring us to
-
University of God so through my sister
-
who is a partner with the the University
-
of God we came into contact with
-
yourselves and uh Prophet Rin and the
-
way God works is such a wonderful way
-
because it puts things into such a
-
timeline that we can try as much as you
-
can to do things our way but when God
-
says it's time for me to step in and do
-
things his way it works in such a smooth
-
and wonderful way so um when it came to
-
the time when we came into contact with
-
yourselves um we received guidance and
-
we received you know a lot of
-
confirmation of what we were already
-
thinking and feeling that actually you
-
know we were meant to be together we
-
need to get married do things the right
-
way and see what God will do for you
-
that's the the words that the prophet um
-
Rin had given to us do the right thing
-
follow God's word obey God and see what
-
he'll do for you and surely yes you know
-
after we listened things started to to
-
fall into place in a wonderful way so we
-
got married first of all this year we
-
got married and um we found out that we
-
were expecting and after we had lost the
-
first baby we received a word from
-
Prophet Rasin that God is going to give
-
you another boy wow so we got the
-
confirmation that yes you meant to be
-
together you're meant to you know go and
-
get married do the right thing but also
-
on top of that God is going to give you
-
another child and for sure it came to
-
pass that you know it felt pregnant it
-
was a boy wow and even in that whole
-
pregnancy it was such a smooth pregnancy
-
um the medical professionals had their
-
opinions but God said no don't listen to
-
any of that he protected the pregnancy
-
all the way through and by God's grace
-
and blessings we have our son with us
-
today wow oh wow that's that's such a
-
wonderful wonderful testimony and I I
-
just want to take you back a bit CU you
-
mentioned about how there was a pressure
-
that were even thought there was a
-
Temptation that you were thinking
-
because if everything was so tough in
-
your life and you were confused where
-
you thought well even if I'm a single
-
mom it's okay I don't need uh uh the
-
father of the child in my life you know
-
I I can do it alone and I think that's
-
such a dangerous lie of Satan isn't it
-
because especially in this day and age
-
where so many people are thinking
-
they're empowered to maybe just do it
-
alone and they don't know that this is
-
against God's law because there's a way
-
God does things for a purpose and you
-
know for for a child uh to come into the
-
world with you know a mother father
-
together grounded in God that's just
-
God's plan because that's the and we can
-
see how that's under attack in this day
-
and age because it is the Bedrock of
-
society and the Bedrock of of of
-
Christian life and that's why we're
-
talking today about the foundation of
-
life and what I love so much about God
-
is that God can always turn our
-
situation around even if we make
-
mistakes with our life even if we maybe
-
take some wrong decisions in our life
-
which I'm sure everyone has at some
-
point taken a wrong decision God can
-
turn everything around that's what the
-
Bible says in Romans 8 vers 28 that God
-
will turn everything around for the good
-
of those who love him and are called
-
according to his purpose so if we truly
-
know that we're in God's purpose in our
-
life God can turn any situation around
-
so it's never too late to put our life
-
right and obey the will of God is always
-
the best decision at the beginning why
-
was it difficult because some people
-
might say well it's obvious if maybe
-
you're already expecting why would you
-
not want to get married and be together
-
what was some of the the pressures or
-
the difficulties or the obstacles at
-
that point when you couldn't see clearly
-
in your life that seemed to be stopping
-
you from doing that it it just felt like
-
there was a blockage um in terms of us
-
moving forward in our relationship like
-
I said we we genuinely love each other
-
dearly and we wanted to be together but
-
it was just that blockage of not being
-
able to see past a certain point that if
-
you get married and get married under
-
God's law that's the right thing to do
-
we well I can speak for myself I I fall
-
to the pressures of society to think
-
well if this is not going to happen you
-
you tend to feel like there's um
-
pressure to get married by a certain age
-
or you need to have your children by a
-
certain age you need to do certain
-
things and that's a lie you God's timing
-
is you know really Incredible God can
-
give you a life even after you 30s or
-
after 40s where to say in your 20s you
-
should be L by now and and things like
-
that oh yeah I understand what you mean
-
so you felt maybe because you'd gone
-
past that stage and you thought well
-
already um if I'm not married now what's
-
the point yeah it's gone ship is gone
-
yeah and I oh that's a really good point
-
you know so we we should not be governed
-
by by pressures of of of age or timing
-
whereas we should trust God's process
-
because you mentioned that You' know
-
each other for a very long time but now
-
if you compare your relationship now
-
that you can see God's worked in your
-
life and you've come to that stage cu
-
the right time has really brought the
-
right person and and that's what we can
-
see the the the fruit of that yeah yeah
-
absolutely it's incredible because once
-
you are walking under God's path under
-
God's Direction you have such peace in
-
your life I can't describe it to the
-
viewers enough that chaos and the
-
chaotic lifestyle and the
-
uncertainties it's like walking through
-
thick mud but when God steps into your
-
life he takes you out of that mud and he
-
puts you on good ground and you're able
-
to have a smoother easier journey and I
-
I can't describe it enough that
-
difference of living in the world and
-
living under the The Obedience of God
-
it's a blessing to walk Under The
-
Obedience of God Amen so Cuda we'd like
-
to hear from you from your from your
-
perspective
-
um what was it like before in terms of
-
not being able to see clearly or or to
-
you know in terms of your role because
-
you know the Bible's very clear about
-
the role of of of the man and the father
-
you know uh why was it you couldn't see
-
clearly at that time and how did God now
-
bring that that light of Revelation to
-
you and what gave you the conviction to
-
follow God despite pressures telling you
-
otherwise thank you Ruth uh I think for
-
me before to
-
uh come to be with handy and be with
-
handy I was in
-
Tero I was not at peace I was looking
-
for an answer but God was pushing me in
-
a particular direction but it's not a
-
direction that I was expecting due to
-
family guidance due to Conventional
-
everything that we know in the world was
-
against that so God is showing me this
-
direction and everyone is up in fighting
-
that direction and I'm stuck here and
-
I'm thinking what do I do so I was not a
-
peace uh Tero I was praying fasting and
-
praying but still God is pushing me that
-
direction and still with the direction
-
then I don't want to go so it's uh it
-
went on for a while until uh one time I
-
was praying and fasting and uh God
-
showed me in a dream he showed me the
-
man of God uh Prophet Rasin he showed me
-
the man of God and I showed us
-
connecting with each other and and uh a
-
year later we came to be in contact
-
through our sister who a partner in in
-
your ministry as well
-
so that you know um when I got to be in
-
touch with you guys uh and speak to the
-
prophet the man of God and he assured me
-
that the way God was showing me was the
-
right way even though I was trying to
-
fight it all these
-
years um he gave me peace inside me M
-
and he gave me direction he gave me what
-
I needed to do because when God speaks
-
he gives you Direction it gives you
-
follow steps to follow so I followed
-
what he told me to do and from then my
-
wife and I uh she's now my wife uh
-
things started moving so smoothly we got
-
married uh we had had disappointment
-
before but we got married and got
-
blessed us and it's just been blessing
-
upon blessing since then and I have
-
heard so much peace in my heart and I'm
-
so happy in this marriage you know it's
-
not it's something that you do not get
-
if you do not follow God's way and uh
-
before I didn't and uh now I can tell
-
the difference yeah and uh it's uh
-
just when you pray and ask
-
God God will answer the Bible says it's
-
a reward of those who diligently seek
-
Him amen yes so he's actually telling
-
you which way to go directing us he's
-
ready to do then he's waiting for us to
-
come to him and ask CU he is his our
-
best interested heart exactly so when
-
you come to God and ask he loves that he
-
give you show you Direction but it's up
-
to you to follow it up no it's true
-
obeying God at first seems hard until we
-
come to realize that all he asks is
-
actually for our good for our good yeah
-
to give us the life that's P them free
-
one area you mentioned I think it's so
-
important because when it comes to
-
matters of relationship husband and wife
-
you know no one can come and tell you oh
-
this is your wife this is your husband
-
um it it has to be a conviction that's
-
already in your heart and anything
-
anyone tells you as a word from God it
-
should only confirm confir what what God
-
has already put in your heart um because
-
at the end of the day the relationship
-
is between you your husband or your wife
-
and God no one else is in that
-
relationship it's not like you can say
-
oh you told me this is my wife now
-
there's a problem you the one to blame
-
you know so we should really guard
-
against that um that temptation to just
-
say oh because this person says is my
-
wife this person says my husband or or I
-
had a dream or or someone can say oh
-
this person is your wife or your husband
-
no you God will always speak to our
-
heart the question is are we listening
-
yes the question is is our heart in the
-
right place to receive and hear the
-
voice of God and then like you
-
mentioned are we ready to obey that
-
voice
-
yes and I think that's what you really
-
did you you were seeking God and once
-
you Reed that confirmation that look
-
this is the right for you when you set
-
your life right together you will see
-
how God will bless you yes and you've
-
seen the before and after so you you can
-
tell the difference between when you're
-
living you're having a relationship
-
outside of God's God's standard it's
-
just confusion you mentioned turmoil
-
although you might love the person
-
emotions are just bound up with so many
-
other things have peace you never have
-
peace and um and can can you tell us as
-
well a bit about the the decision to get
-
married because I know people can also
-
identify with this um what were the
-
maybe some of the obstacles you had to
-
overcome just tell us a bit about that
-
because I think people can probably
-
relate as well the the number one thing
-
is um uh tradition yeah tradition coming
-
from Africa and we do things a certain
-
way
-
and uh everyone expects you to go along
-
that way but if you ask them why do we
-
do this and that and that no one can
-
tell you that because it's tradition
-
like the Bible Apostle Paul said passed
-
on from our elders all all the way down
-
but no one really knows what's happening
-
but God does not do
-
tradition you understand so God gave us
-
particular a particular route to follow
-
do this in my kingdom you do this in
-
Tradition in the world you do that but
-
in the Kingdom for my marriage blessed
-
by me ordained by me brought together by
-
me this is how we do it so we followed
-
God's voice we didn't listen to any
-
outside influence yeah we followed what
-
God has directed us to do and uh it's
-
just been blessing after blessing wow so
-
there is outside pressure there's always
-
going to be tradition there's always
-
going to be outside influence but when
-
God gives you the directive I pray you
-
follow that and that's the only way to
-
your blessing to your happiness in your
-
marriage yeah and I think that's what a
-
lot of people might find difficulty with
-
is the outside pressures from family and
-
and friends especially with these
-
traditions and cultures that you know
-
they they're not really um there's
-
nothing wrong with tradition and culture
-
of course but some some specifics are
-
not the right way of of doing things God
-
way is very direct if you follow God's
-
way honestly it will just be so
-
straightforward you'll have peace your
-
life will transform and um that's
-
exactly what happened to us yeah
-
wow yeah I I I really think you've
-
you've said it all in that aspect and I
-
think people can do well to to learn
-
from your experience because it all
-
happens so quickly that's another thing
-
you know so many people think oh I don't
-
have enough money to get married or it's
-
not the right time because I need to
-
have this amount and you know when it
-
comes to a matter of marriage it's a
-
heart decision and once your heart has
-
made that decision and God has sealed it
-
then you
-
know it it's it's not about having a
-
specific standard that needs to be met
-
in order to get married whatever
-
standard that might be set by Society or
-
by family or by pressure or by
-
competition or anything it's God is the
-
witness to that marriage and the most
-
important thing is that God is the
-
witness I've seen what God has done in
-
your life you know God provided you of a
-
wonderful place to live and then you
-
know you you you lost your baby but God
-
gave you another boy just as the prophet
-
said and um tell us about as well you
-
said the pregnancy went so smoothly I
-
know that even even the details of how
-
and when the baby was born tell us about
-
that like how God intervened in that
-
area oh that was incredible um so a few
-
days it was a few days before um our son
-
was born we actually received um word
-
from prophet rasim and he was very
-
specific he said said get ready on
-
Thursday it was Monday and he said
-
Thursday wow and he said get ready on
-
Thursday and that that wasn't the due
-
date that you'd been given
-
by th yeah Thursday yes so and exactly
-
as as he had said it um as he had
-
received the word from God and passed on
-
that word to us happened exactly that
-
way uh Thursday at midnight Wednesday
-
midnight rather entering into Thursday
-
morning that's when the contraction
-
started exactly on time and our son was
-
born um Thursday morning wow and I know
-
even because of the previous
-
complication that they were the medical
-
professionals were were worried maybe
-
they wanted to induce you and and I
-
remember he said no that's not going to
-
happen to you yeah yeah that's exactly
-
what happened as well so I was not
-
induced um everything went smoothly W
-
thank you Jesus and yeah it was a
-
perfect birth and even the name yes even
-
the name the name was um
-
when was it given to
-
us
-
um before birth was before bir before he
-
was born before so before our son was
-
born we also receive confirmation of his
-
name that's the name um as he's known by
-
God as his name as he will be known in
-
heaven that's his real name that's what
-
we will given James James James so it's
-
um it's it's a it's uh it's wonderful to
-
receive these uh confirmation and
-
guidance from the men of God and from
-
you as well because uh this is what uh
-
builds our faith as well as we walk
-
along this journey because um uh he said
-
the boy will be born on Thursday whereas
-
they wanted to Inu you on Saturday so uh
-
God Made A Way and then he said no uh
-
man of God said you know what I don't
-
want this I'm praying to God
-
and then he called and said Thursday the
-
baby's coming don't do anything don't go
-
anywhere I said ah okay so and Thursday
-
or Wednesday midnight constructions
-
began uh Thursday morning baby came baby
-
arrived healthy wonderful baby nothing
-
wrong with him and U yeah it's just G so
-
beautifully wow yeah it's it's amazing
-
it's amazing no complications we had um
-
fears from the prior birth we had our
-
worries uh so every little thing we were
-
worried but
-
uh everything came to pass just the man
-
of go saying I think your your case
-
really highlights the fact that when you
-
put your life in the standard of God you
-
are open to God's blessings but whereas
-
if we're actually living outside God's
-
standard we don't know why maybe we're
-
open Us opening ourselves up to attack
-
and and and problems because we're not
-
under the protection of God so this
-
means our life will really go smoother
-
when we go by the way of the Holy Bible
-
which is the the law that God has given
-
us and like we said it's not always easy
-
there are always pressures and
-
difficulties and it always seems to be
-
easier to go the other way but great
-
blessing comes with going the way of God
-
and I can really see the peace in your
-
life uh I can see that peace radiating
-
from you not just in your beautiful
-
child but also in in the way you relate
-
with each each other and I think that's
-
what brings that security and that is
-
what um that is what the god ordained
-
institution of marriage is all about you
-
know we are stronger together and we
-
were never meant to go it all alone and
-
having obviously gone through I mean I'm
-
on the Journey of motherhood as well
-
myself and I can't even imagine how
-
difficult this would be to do alone you
-
know or outside the the the blessing of
-
the institution of marriage so you know
-
at this time of year when all of us it's
-
a time of family we come together when
-
we appreciate what God has done in our
-
lives it's good for us to actually
-
examine ourselves and think we should
-
value the foundation of life and make
-
sure our foundation is right if our
-
foundation is Right everything else will
-
be right so I'd like to give you
-
opportunity to give some advice now if
-
you would like to advise people from the
-
from your heart from your life
-
experience what advice would you give my
-
advice for the viewers would be to log
-
on to the University of God podcast and
-
have a look and listen to the podcast
-
titled don't give up because it most
-
resonates with the situation that we've
-
been through um people might feel like
-
they have lost time or you know they
-
don't have time to get married it's too
-
late to have children it's too late to
-
um get married and and be in a
-
relationship am I with the right person
-
is this the right thing but if you just
-
listen to God God's will for your life
-
he will give you conviction he will
-
answer your prayers and to never give up
-
don't fall to society's um standards or
-
what society says or dictates about what
-
things should be um a lot of fear is um
-
instilled into people by by other
-
people's words other people's opinions
-
the only opinion that matters the most
-
is God's opinion God will always set you
-
on to the right path once you're under
-
his will things will fall into to place
-
you'll have peace and things will just
-
go so much smoother in your life and um
-
there's there's no turning back
-
honestly what about you Cuda what what
-
would your word of advice be um my
-
advice to people listening is that uh
-
people are getting married every day
-
people are getting married everywhere
-
but for the wrong reasons people are
-
already marriages for the wrong reasons
-
I want to say to you before you get
-
married ask God pray and ask God and
-
wait for God wait for God never run to
-
marry without god pushing you to get
-
married there's a difference between the
-
marriage for the world and the marriage
-
for the kingdom what you want is a
-
marriage for the kingdom this one will
-
give you peace and bring blessing to
-
your family so I know a lot of people
-
who've gone off and got
-
married had relationships had kids but
-
it's not God's Direction and I know a
-
lot of people been divorced now
-
separated and things like that because
-
they went T without God's guidance it
-
wasn't a marriage in the kingdom it was
-
outside the Kingdom so I want to say to
-
people God God's direction is the best
-
and God's timing is the best don't feel
-
like you have to rush and because
-
everyone around you is getting married I
-
also have to jump in no you don't uh
-
pray and ask
-
God uh ghost timing is the best ghost
-
timing is the best it will give you the
-
peace the happiness and the blessing uh
-
so I know a lot of people are already
-
divorced already separated but I say to
-
them also ask God pray and ask God for
-
direction since we we've come to be in
-
contact with uh brother Rin and you it's
-
um God is assured me that I'm in I'm in
-
the correct I'm going the right
-
direction I'm in on the correct path
-
assured me and uh assured me over and
-
over again that I am on the on the
-
correct road and this is this gives me
-
peace because uh everything can be going
-
wrong but you know he I'm going the
-
right direction you understand this is
-
the one thing that you need to be in the
-
will of God no it's true great peace
-
that comes in in being in the will of
-
God and it's like you can handle any
-
challenge that comes your way because
-
you know you're not alone you know that
-
God is with you in that challenge and
-
it's never too late to make God's word
-
the standard for our life we we've never
-
gone too far the wrong way for us to
-
turn around and actually say I'm going
-
to put my life right that decision can
-
start today that decision can start now
-
in your heart because it's in our heart
-
that that decision needs to be made
-
because if it doesn't come from the
-
heart it won't stand the test of time
-
because any relationship has challenges
-
within this world definitely they'll be
-
full of there'll be challenges along the
-
way but when we're together with God you
-
know you mentioned something you said a
-
marriage outside of God's kingdom is not
-
really a marriage it's true it's a
-
cohabitation it's two people living
-
together but they're not one the only
-
way we can be one is when Jesus is the
-
center of that unity and I really want
-
to thank you both of you for those words
-
of advice that you've giving because
-
you're speaking from your own experience
-
and all of us we have life experience
-
but the best way we can Channel our life
-
is not by the experience of others or
-
even by our own experience but by what
-
God's word says our life will always
-
always go smoother when we go by the way
-
of the word of God it's never too late
-
to make our life align with the word of
-
God never it might not be easy but it's
-
always the best decision There's Hope
-
yeah there's always hope
-
yeah amen there is always hope so at
-
this season where we're remembering the
-
hope of the world that was born we want
-
to encourage everyone to set their life
-
right and if you can't see clearly maybe
-
you're confused about what's going on
-
take time out to pray and seek God's
-
will the experience that they're giving
-
you they made that decision once they
-
made that hard decision they obeyed
-
God's word and you can see blessing
-
after blessing after blessing so it's
-
not just to know the will of God you
-
have to obey it and once you obey the
-
will of God and continue to obey the
-
will of God that means you're under
-
God's protection and the door is open to
-
his Blessing in your life remember God
-
will never open the the gates of of
-
blessing to those who keep their Bible
-
shut and why do I mean their Bible shut
-
I mean the word of God shut in their
-
heart meaning the word of God has no
-
place in their heart so make sure the
-
word of God has a place in your heart
-
because that is how the blessing of God
-
can come into your life and lastly
-
people might say oh but I I want a
-
personal encounter too with Prophet
-
Rasin and I I want to encounter you
-
personally as well why can't that happen
-
to me you know the way a manner God
-
works in our lives always differs you
-
know God arranged divinely that you
-
would come into contact with this
-
ministry and come into contact with
-
myself and rasine and it was a god
-
connection connection and when when it's
-
a god Connection in your life you know
-
that God will open the way so if God has
-
if if God has ministered to you to be
-
involved in in this ministry that God
-
has given us the University of God then
-
please get involved like um Tandy said
-
you know there's a surface level and
-
there's a deeper level you can go and
-
you know you too you also made that
-
decision you too you also partners with
-
the uog and why do I say this because so
-
many people want to go on a deeper level
-
but you can even by joining the app by
-
subscribing to the app you can have
-
access to those um you know those Zoom
-
meetings we do once a month and and some
-
we can have maybe different encounters
-
with you that God wants so there's
-
different ways we can go deeper with God
-
so don't be on a surface level if you
-
know that God has put you in contact
-
with this ministry and it's God that's
-
done that then come closer in and be
-
part of the family we can't wait to see
-
God work in your life and we know that
-
surely your own testimony is just a
-
moment away once you make that heart
-
decision to put your life right and obey
-
the will of God then definitely Obed is
-
a way of blessing amen amen
-
amen this is beautiful baby James and he
-
actually had the the privilege many of
-
us would have loved that privilege to
-
start life out being dedicated to God
-
and I think we're going to show you some
-
glimpses of that as well to bless you
-
the message there will really bless you
-
it's really uh all the scriptures there
-
take them to heart and you can also
-
speak them over your child it's never
-
too late as I said I I was also blessed
-
by that ceremony that little James had
-
thank thank you Jesus amen amen thank
-
you thank you Jesus
-
[Music]
-
this is the seed of Tomorrow a blessed
-
child today by the special grace of God
-
we are going to officiate his naming
-
ceremony to dedicate this CH to the Lord
-
as it with the case of our Lord Jesus
-
Christ in the temple in Jesus name
-
father in the name of Jesus we thank you
-
Lord Jesus we thank you for this day you
-
are the alpha you are the Omega we thank
-
you for this Divine appointment Lord we
-
remember in the scriptures that the
-
Messiah the Son of God came through
-
Virgin
-
and the scripture says Jesus was
-
dedicated before God in the temple of
-
the Lord father you have said every
-
child and the eth day should be
-
presented to the
-
Lord today Father in respect to the
-
scriptures here is my brother here is my
-
sister with this offering you have given
-
him by grace to dedicate this child to
-
the god of Heaven in the name of Jesus
-
the blood of Jesus this child is a child
-
of Destiny Lord we Comm the child to you
-
and pray you bless his journey to life a
-
New Journey has started Lord walk this
-
child throughout life in your name Jesus
-
by your grace in Jesus name we pray amen
-
amen hallelujah so naming a
-
baby must come from God the names are
-
important before
-
God God sent all the animals to Adam to
-
see how he's going to name them and he
-
gave name to all the animal
-
names are important before God name
-
hides your destiny sometimes so right
-
now we are going to take our proof text
-
that whatever we do here should be in
-
accordance to the scriptures let's go to
-
the Book of Luke Chapter 2 we read that
-
from verse 14 glory to God in the
-
highest and on Earth peace Good Will
-
toward men so it was when the Angels had
-
gone away from them into heaven that the
-
Shepherds said to one another let us now
-
go to Bethlehem and see this thing that
-
has come to pass which the Lord has made
-
known to us and they came with haste and
-
found Mary and Joseph and the Babe lying
-
in a Manger now when they had seen him
-
they made widely known the saying which
-
was told them concerning this child and
-
all those who heard it marveled at those
-
things which were told them by the
-
Shepherds but Mary kept all these things
-
and pondered them in her heart then the
-
Shepherds returned glorifying and
-
praising God for all the things they had
-
heard and seen as it was told told them
-
mhm and when 8 days were completed for
-
the circumcision of the child his name
-
was called Jesus the name given by the
-
angel before he was conceived in the
-
womb the name Jesus came from the angel
-
from above that should be the case of
-
this chch today so I want to explain to
-
you that right from the beginning of
-
creation God said to man it's not good
-
for man to be
-
alone the Bible says he made and helper
-
like him like
-
him and God blessed them to
-
multiply I want to everybody to
-
understand that the will of God in
-
giving that instruction was not to
-
populate the world but to fill the world
-
with Godly Christian homes Godly homes
-
what do I mean by Godly homes people
-
that walk in the light of righteousness
-
and obedience to God people that walk in
-
fellowship with God let by the Holy
-
Spirit sanctification and blessed that's
-
what God
-
wanted but when sin came we saw
-
unrighteousness came violence came to
-
the extent God sent the flood to whole
-
humankind but God said his plan is
-
righteousness to bring man back to him
-
mean righteousness is the backbone of a
-
Nation righteousness is the backbone of
-
a whole world in righteousness that's
-
what God is looking at when God looks on
-
the earth he's looking for the righteous
-
person the righteous are those who make
-
God they Delight those who live by faith
-
following his ways and instructions for
-
their
-
lives so this child we talking about
-
today is this call it the seed of
-
tomorrow because God is a god of
-
generation there is a plan of God for
-
this child hidden to you
-
but Mary saw by the angel that this
-
small Child Called Jesus will be the
-
savior of the world when John the
-
Baptist was born it was revealed that he
-
is the Elijah to come a Prophet this
-
child can be the history maker tomorrow
-
a prophet or an evangelist God knows in
-
his Mercy now for the will of God the
-
purpose of God to be fulfilled we have a
-
duty a responsibility as parents so the
-
seed needs to be watered by you to enter
-
the promise of God to release this child
-
into his Divine Destiny what do we need
-
the word of God this word of God is a
-
bridge to the future of this
-
child that is why righteousness does not
-
just happen it is
-
built a Godly house a Godly home does
-
not just happen it is built you are here
-
because both of you you believe in Jesus
-
your faith in his name to walk in his
-
way and status and then his grace will
-
come upon your children because God is
-
got a family the scripture say believe
-
in the Lord Jesus Christ and we shall be
-
saved you and all your family the
-
question
-
is Godly
-
homes are built on three
-
pillars who are the mother the father
-
and the children that is
-
it now how is it built there's only one
-
Foundation
-
the word of God who is building it your
-
plant but your responsibility is to
-
water today we are planting a seed today
-
we are preaching the word we are
-
planting the seed this child is listing
-
in the spirit but your duty is to water
-
the seed that's the duty of the
-
parents how do you water it by training
-
this child in the way of the Lord with
-
the word of
-
God so what does the scripture says Ruth
-
take us to the Book of Proverbs CH
-
22:6 this is how the holy spirit is the
-
one that builds this house the Holy
-
Spirit uses the word of God to act upon
-
our soul to produce the beauty the fruit
-
of the spirit in our lives so
-
righteousness does not just happen it is
-
built it starts little right now right
-
now Hallelujah he's listening to
-
me right now it is starting this is why
-
when you're preaching the word of God in
-
the
-
home this child is listening list speak
-
the word of God it's not your duty
-
whether he understand or not one day
-
this child will still begin to speak
-
English nobody give me dictionary the
-
same way the word of God will plant the
-
seed and allow the Holy Spirit to give
-
the increas let's listen to proverb
-
22:6 and verse1 15 train up a child in
-
the way he should go and when he is old
-
he will not depart from it TR the CH
-
what in the way he should go mhm and
-
when he is old he will not depart from
-
it mean the right time to plant the
-
seity is now verse 15 M foolishness is
-
bound up in the heart of a childh the
-
rod of Correction will drive it far from
-
him when we say correction is not
-
beating correction is the word of God
-
why do you need
-
correction no one is born righteous
-
correction makes future possible when
-
this little begin to grow he will
-
observe the way you behave in the house
-
he will look at you he will learn from
-
you the school start at home the way you
-
handle matters the way you handle
-
situation he's observing he's learning
-
you are planting a seed by the way you
-
talk by the way you behave by the way
-
you handle
-
situations so do you need to go on
-
camera the scripture says training in
-
the way of the Lord so when he grow old
-
he never forget
-
[Music]
-
it by the time you plant that seed you
-
watch the seed the increase belongs to
-
the Holy Spirit not you something is
-
growing something is building up Beyond
-
Your Capacity as a father as a mother
-
you will spend your financial resources
-
give your best education for this child
-
right but there is something that up to
-
God his spiritual life his future holy
-
spirit will will fulfill that one that
-
protection Holy Ghost Will D it his
-
future belongs to God one day he will
-
leave your
-
home he will go to university he will
-
work he will marry and have children
-
that's
-
generation God is not looking at now God
-
is looking at 20 years 30 years to come
-
that's good for you so whatever we are
-
doing today we are just planting the
-
seed but God knows the seed that will
-
come from this child God
-
knows so that's why your duty is to
-
plant the seed with the r word of God
-
now I said to you who is building the
-
house Holy Spirit how by speaking to you
-
now the Holy Spirit first will speak to
-
the wife let's see what holy spirit is
-
speaking to Madame go to the book of
-
Ephesians chapter 5 from verse 22 to 24
-
what I want to say that all the
-
scriptures I'm going to mention came
-
from Apostle Paul Apostle
-
Peter why because the early churches
-
were churches house
-
churches can't you see it wasn't the
-
building that we have today they went
-
into a household a household of faith
-
and that's where the churches
-
started and that's why all this
-
instruction came from houses at the end
-
of
-
each episod Paul will speak to the
-
father speak to the mother and speak to
-
the children okay let's
-
go Ephesians 5:22 let's listen to what
-
the spirit of God says to the wife to
-
build this house wives submit to your
-
own husbands as to the Lord for the
-
husband is head of the wife as also
-
Christ is head of the church and he is
-
the savior of the body therefore just as
-
the church is subject to Christ so let
-
the wives be be to their husbands in
-
everything let's go to First Peter
-
chapter 3 from verse 1 to6 wives
-
likewise be submissive to your own
-
husbands that even if some do not obey
-
the word they without a word may be won
-
by the conduct of their wives when they
-
observe your chased conduct accompanied
-
by fear do not let your adornment be
-
merely outward arranging the hair
-
wearing gold or putting on fine apparel
-
rather let it be the hidden person of
-
the heart with the incorruptable beauty
-
of a gentle and quiet Spirit which is
-
very precious in the sight of God thank
-
you Colossians ch 3 Verse 18 the last
-
verse wives submit to your own husbands
-
as is fitting in the Lord thank you what
-
do you notice there all these three
-
scriptures we have read mention one word
-
wife submit yourself to your husband I
-
want to say something about the word
-
submission it's called willing
-
submission it's not
-
authoritative it's willing submission to
-
do the will of God because of Christ
-
this means that no matter what may
-
happen
-
pressure and tension situation your
-
strength come from the
-
Lord no matter what happened humble
-
yourself before God don't fight come to
-
Jesus intercede submit to the will of
-
God and God will fight the battle for
-
you because the battle you're going to
-
face we face in life is not in that the
-
home you fighting
-
Satan he will use situation to bring
-
division situation to bring trouble when
-
situation happen we should not fight the
-
wrong battle we sh the right battle
-
what's the ble we come before God In
-
Prayer in humility our character our
-
conduct is enough that's what Peter said
-
even if your husband is an unbeliever
-
misbehave at home do something bad the
-
scripture say show him by the way you
-
act you react what is right by doing
-
what is right in his side and his
-
conscious will tell him he will come and
-
say sorry that's the war of
-
righteousness love is your weapon
-
against pride humility is your weapon
-
against Pride love your weapon against
-
hatred let others attack you not you let
-
others insult you not you response by if
-
you do that Jesus will take over the
-
battle for you and before you realize it
-
Satan is put to
-
shame that is submission I mean the
-
battle you are fighting is with the Lord
-
and Jesus will fight for you in
-
righteousness he will manifest his
-
strength and give you Victory protect
-
your home bless your husband and move on
-
that's what Sarah did that's what
-
Rebecca did that's what Rachel did Sarah
-
did Mighty things for
-
Abraham Rebecca did Mighty things for
-
Isaac and so on look what BBA did to to
-
to Salomon what tamama did so there is a
-
secret and mystery to see what Mary did
-
Joseph want to send her away but God
-
revealed himself through Mary and Mary
-
was absolutely humble
-
she never said anything she could have
-
been ston to death going to the Lord of
-
mes but she kept quiet and God fought
-
the Battle how by sending the angel to
-
vindicate her in the sight of
-
Joseph now let's listen what the holy
-
spirit says to the husand to balance
-
this
-
relationship go to Ephesians chapter 5
-
from verse
-
25-32 husbands love your wives just as
-
Christ also loved the church and gave
-
himself for her that he might sanctify
-
and cleanse her with the washing of
-
Water by the word now let's go to 1
-
Peter chapter 3 now from verse 7
-
husbands likewise dwell with them with
-
understanding giving honor to the wife
-
as to the weaker vessel and as being HS
-
together of the grace of life that your
-
prayers may not be hindered your prayers
-
may not be hindered can you see that the
-
mystery if husband and wife are united
-
in prayer they prayer will come to the
-
throne of God Colossians chap 3
-
from verse 19 husbands love your wives
-
and do not be bitter towards them you
-
see now love your wife and do not be
-
bitter Ephesians 7 verse 25-32 we have
-
read the Bible says there is a mystery
-
between a husband and a wife the Bible
-
Likens the relationship of marriage to
-
Christ and the church that is why you
-
are
-
one how you are one because you share
-
the same Faith with the same Spirit of
-
Faith holy spirit makes you
-
War this means what is now your your
-
your Victory Holy Spirit what is your
-
strength Holy Spirit what is your
-
guidance Holy Spirit love you don't see
-
yourself you see yourself in your wife
-
and she see herself in you that's the
-
mystery when Adam looked Adam looked and
-
saw Eve he say Flesh of My Flesh and
-
Bones of my B one Spirit one thought one
-
heart one mind Victory forever
-
you see the importance of unity when you
-
are
-
praying a Christian Home Love Of Christ
-
holy spirit is a foundation of such
-
house pride has nothing to do with that
-
house Satan cannot do anything against
-
such such home because Jesus is the
-
foundation Holy Spirits is the
-
foundation so submission and love go
-
together we submit to Jesus right all of
-
us but the love of Christ Keeps Us in
-
life he say my yoke is is not
-
authoritative is love willing submission
-
because of love because I love God I
-
obey him because I love him I accept
-
because I love you I do this act of love
-
now let's see what the spirit of God
-
says to the
-
child he has a word for the child
-
Ephesians 6 verse 1 to 4 children obey
-
your parents in the Lord for this is
-
right honor your father and mother which
-
is the first commandment with promise
-
that it may be well with you and you may
-
live long on the earth and you fathers
-
do not provoke your children to wroth
-
but bring them up in the training and
-
admonition of the Lord wife submission
-
husband love children honor your parents
-
this is the law this the these are the
-
foundation upon which a Godly home is
-
built we saw Jesus how he obeyed Mary
-
and Joseph when they finally made the
-
temple he went and submitted to them in
-
obedience and that's what revealed the
-
glory of God in our
-
lives that's what build righteousness
-
the house of Abraham was built like that
-
Isaac obedient receive the blessing
-
Jacob obedient receive the blessing is
-
the obedient child that receive blessing
-
that's why honor your father and mother
-
so that blessing will come to your life
-
it's a principle that will never change
-
so please train this child on those
-
principles because one day
-
he will leave his father and mother and
-
be United to his wife and what he
-
learned from you that's we going to
-
practice
-
up the time to build righteousness is
-
the his time whatever seed you planted
-
there will yield FR tomorrow that's why
-
we call it the seed of
-
tomorrow so train this child in the way
-
of God when you are reading the Bible
-
Fellowship in the house let this child
-
be there when you are reading the Bible
-
let the child be there when he Godly
-
music Let the child be there because
-
he's listening and holy spirit will do
-
what you canot do that word will bring
-
the presence of Holy Spirit for the
-
child that's what I wanted to say when
-
you speak word of God Holy Ghost comes
-
but you cannot see him so let the
-
presence of the Holy Ghost come so you
-
can feel this
-
child this child is Sanctified by the
-
parents now he has an angel he connected
-
to Heaven he's innocent
-
so please this is the reason why we
-
said there is a marriage there is a
-
marriage with a
-
difference the marriage which is
-
anchored on God's word husband and wife
-
are one one faith and they follow the
-
instruction of God to train their
-
children in the way of
-
Jesus so when they grow grow old
-
blessings of God is waiting for
-
them in Jesus name so let us pray father
-
we thank you for this word I
-
pray you give them the grace Lord to
-
build their home on the foundation of
-
the Living Word give him the grace Lord
-
to train this little one in your holy
-
ways with your love with your presence
-
with your word in the name of Jesus Amen
