Sorry we have been off site for some days, it was due to technical breakdown. We are fully back now and so enjoy the teaching for the week; THE MYSTERY OF FELLOWSHIP!
There is an appointed place where ‘destinies’ happens at a natural frequency. Matthew 18: 20 says, “Where two or three are gathered together in my name there am I in the midst of them...” For the Lord has chosen Zion and appointed it for his habitation (Psalms 132: 13-16). Zion, the Church is God’s habitation. It is a place of fellowship where God commands His blessing (Psalms 133: 1-3). Unusual things happen when we come together in God’s presence because of the corporate nature of our faith and the unity of the spirit. The word of God makes us understand that because the Apostles were in fellowship many signs and wonders were performed by them (Acts 5; 2, 4: 33).
Not being in fellowship therefore means removing yourself from the magnetic field or the pool of miracles. No matter how anointed your house is, it can not be a substitute for the house of God. Don’t toy with fellowshipping with the brethren in the house of God; make it a necessity as long as you live! Zion, the dwelling place of the Almighty God, is where giants are raised according to Psalms 87.
Every revolution you ever heard of in the world today sprang up from the Church, especially industrial revolution. So when you come to Church, you are not just fulfilling a religious obligation, you are being built up to occupy your place in destiny. When you are fed with the word of God in Church, you go out into the world with the mind set of Christ, manifesting the word and excelling on every side.
Let me say here that, being in Church is a matter of decision, those who come do so because they have decided to be there and those who don’t come often have many excuses because they have also decided not to be there. Give no room to excuses in your life. Any job that will not allow you to see God, close it and look for God! Any job or responsibility that wants to make you forget God is dangerous to your destiny! Never play with the “God Factor” in your life! Don’t forget God in your search for money or things because none of those things can give you satisfaction, only God can! Make up your mind to always be in the house of God where giants are raised, inspiration is delivered, wisdom is released for the quickening of your mental faculty and destinies are designed. Be like David of old, who said he was glad when he was invited to go into the house of God (Psalms 122: 1)
Studying David very well, I discovered that one of the secrets of his successful life was the fact that he was always in the house of God. Even though he was the king of the whole nation, he still created time to be in the house of the Lord, he could have easily make excuses due to his position, but he knew better. The best place to be at the hour of service is God’s house. No matter how well decorated your house is, God’s house is better!
When we come together in Church, we form a ‘bunch’ which creates more effect than an individual. I know God is every where, but He is much more in His house, since the house belongs to Him! I know he hears everywhere, but He hears better in His house, be wise and you will end as a winner both on earth and in heaven. (Hebrews 10: 24-25)
Friends, being a Christian and absenting yourself from Church is comparable to the following miseries: A farmer that does not go to farm, a student that does not go to school, a writer that has no pen, a drummer that has no drum, a sailor without a ship and a child without a family! Wake up and take up your responsibility as a true Christian. Shalom!
