[For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him [that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly], and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection. – Philippians 3:10, The Amplified Bible

Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am. — John 13:13

He (the Spirit) will never lead you contrary to the Word of God. I hear people saying, “The Lord led me to do this. … The Lord told me thus and so …” I am always a little suspicious unless what the Lord has said is in keeping with His Word. God never directs us to do anything contrary to His Word. The prophet Samuel once said, “Obedience is better than sacrifice.” The Scripture teaches, “He that willeth to do His will shall know the doctrine.”

John 6:56, ‘He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.’

John 6:47-59

Many thought that Jesus was speaking of cannibalism, but He was speaking of the spiritual man. Just as the physical man receives life from the food he eats, so the spiritual man receives life as he partakes of Jesus, the life of men (Jn. 1:4; 10:10; 14:6) or the ‘Bread of Life.’ Just as the life of a root is found in the soil, or a branch in the vine, or a fish in the sea, so the believer’s true life is found to be in union with Christ.

Keys To Family Dominion (Part 1) by Pastor Faith Oyedepo

Keys To Family Dominion (Part 1) by Pastor Faith Oyedepo

Dear Reader,

Happy new month! This is the last month in this wonderful year and I am sure you have loads of testimonies already. The Bible says: Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness (Psalm 65:11). Therefore, that which God has for you and your family in this crowning month shall be practically delivered into your hands in Jesus’ name!

The teaching series for this month shall be centred on The Possibility of Family Dominion. You may ask, “Is it possible to have dominion in my family?” Yes! It is possible! As a child of God, you are created in the image of God to dominate. The Bible says: And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth (Genesis 1:26).

4 Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.
