• Accessing God’s help is God stepping into your situation to accomplish what is humanly impossible.
John 2:1-11, Ex 14:15-22, Jos 6:1-27, Luke 5:1-7

Why is God’s help superior to the help of man?
1. God is the most reliable help a man needs (Psa 46:1-2)
• Humans can be hindered from offering help by circumstances.
• Humans can change their minds.

2. God’s help is the most available help a man can need (it is always available) (Psa 46:1, Mal 3:6)
3. God is the most durable help (Mal 3:6)
• Man can help you, but for how long?
• For example, your uncle could be the one paying your school fees but pass away before you complete your program.
• The end of a man’s health or resources could be the end of your help.

4. God’s help is the most comfortable help a man can receive (Phili 4:19)
• You could be looking for K10000 but the person that offers to help you only has K1000. That help is not comfortable.

5. God’s help is the most knowledgeable kind of help (John 6:5-6, Dan 2:11, 19, Luke 22:31)
• God knows everything.
• Help is not only financial, you could be looking for a way out of something or answers to questions.
• The devil is not all-knowing.
• The devil doesn’t even know why you could be smiling, he can only suspect.
• God has given us the Holy Spirit, the custodian of all knowledge.
• Whenever you are helped, you will arrive at your destination early (Exo 2:18-21)
• The devil will only win when you get discouraged and quit.
• God’s help is the maker of all men.

What is the importance of help from above?
1. For stability and sustainability in destiny fulfillment (Psa 127:1, Acts 26:22, John 15:5)
• Unless God is behind your destiny, it is in vain.
• It is not enough for God to make you prosper, he needs to sustain you because devils will attack you.
• Breakthroughs attracts battles and you need God to protect you because it could be the reason why you die young.
• The devil can never be said to be a sustainer.
• God is both a giver and a sustainer.
• To be blessed and not be sustained in the blessing is like starting a fight you have no weapons to win.
• Every good thing attracts the anger of the devil in the life of that believer.
• Only a spirit can guarantee sustenance of a covenant.

2. To conquer fear (Heb 13:6)
• Fear is the opposite of faith and can kill destiny when it is present in the life of a man.

3. To overcome reproach and shame (Isa 50:7-8)
4. To achieve speedy success (2 Chr 26:5, 6, 15, Ezra 5:2)
5. In order to experience joy (Ps 146:5)
6. To give victory in times of battle (1 Sam 7:9-12)
7. Deliverance from valleys of death (1 Chr 15:26, Psa 23:6)
8. The ability to give us strength to succeed (2 Chr 26:15, Psa 89:19)

• When you walk with God, your walk with Him will affect your children’s children.
• When you walk with the devil, your children’s children will be affected.
• Spirits love memorials.
• If you forget memorials, the devil will remember on your behalf and He will be doing the opposite of what that memorial is supposed to do.
• The most powerful arousers of emotion are what you hear and what you see.
• We can choose how we want to feel by making sure we hear and see the right things.
Acts 26:19, Rev 2:4, Num 11:5
• Our problem is forgetting.
• When many people are faced with a mountain, the devil makes them forget the hills God helped them cross over.
• It takes a lot to remember.

2 Chron 14:11-12
• There is help from God for anyone and everyone who can access it.
• The help of God is the help indeed that man needs.
• Why does man need help? We are not sufficient of ourselves, we need help.

• Once the help of God is sought, it mainly comes through 3 avenues:
1. He may send us help through men
2. He may send us help through His mercy
3. He may send us help through the help of the Spirit of God

• When we are born-again, we need the chief-helper who is the Holy Spirit.
• We cannot do life by ourselves, we need the help of God.
• God’s help is not automatic, He doesn’t just help us because we need help, we must access it.
2 Cor 3:4-8
• How can you lack angelic ministration when you have the Holy Spirit who is the boss of the angels?
• We lack angelic help because we are not aware of them and we don’t know how to activate them.
• Our generation has not engaged God as much as those in old days because we have many distraction.
Rom 12:1-2
• Very few people have time for God.
• Very few people define their lives from the information in the word of God.
1 Tim 4:13-15
• A person can’t change his ways because of time.
• It is when a person accepts new information to come into him that his ways can change.
• Poverty is not a lack of money even though it creates lack of money.
• Poverty is a mindset.
• It is possible for us to live healthy , if only we can have the wisdom of God at work in us.
• It is not just praying, we need wisdom in other areas.
• It is the will of God for us to live healthy.
• Eating healthy is the first prevention for sickness.
• You cannot be over 35 years and eating sugar as though you’re a young boy.
• Just because God has blessed you with money doesn’t mean you should now put 10 table spoons of sugar in your cup of tea.
• Have the wisdom to eat healthy and ensure you are resting.
• Anxiety is deadly.
• You can spend 10 hours at work and yet you are not resting.
• Whatever God tells you not to do, He knows something about it.
• Borrowing will bring you anxiety.
Deut 15:6
• You shouldn’t wait until you become diabetic to cut certain foods out of your diet.
• The best is to live under (lower) your means.
• We must always desire the best for our children but it should be below our means.
• This is the time for us to get hooked to God’s system.
• We need to have our minds renewed.
• Because many are conformed to the world’s system, many of the things that affect the world are also affecting them.
Heb 4:16, Ps 46:1
• The Bible doesn’t tell us that we should only be accessing help when we are in need.
• Many christians only seek help from God when they are in need.
• Most christians are “firefighters”, waiting for things to go wrong then they rush to try to put out the fires.
Prov 28:1
• People are bold when they know.
• You don’t know on the day of trouble, you should know it before.
• Those who know don’t approach the throne of God in a beggarly manner.
• Those who know, know that they have the right to access God’s help.
• When you know, you will treat everything that comes to you that is not of God as an enemy.
• God is your father and you can approach Him (Luke 15:12, 31).
• It is important that your accessing help from God is based on knowledge.
• Change the way you approach God.
• Know that God is your father.
• Approach God boldly as a son and not as a servant, having full confidence that He has what you are looking for.
• The consciousness of the knowledge that God is with you does a lot of damage to doubt (Rom 8:31-37).

PRAYER POINT:
GOD, GRANT ME GRACE TO BE CONSCIOUS OF YOUR HELP SO THAT I MAY ACCESS IT ALL THE TIME AND STAND THE TEST OF THE TIMES THAT ARE COMING.
[ACTS 26:22]

• Nothing that is appreciated for depreciates.
• To be thankful is to gain value.
• To be unthankful is to lose value.
• You can’t maintain anything good that has come from the hand of God without thanksgiving.
• To be unthankful is a serious risk because it can turn one’s glory into shame, promotion into demotion, long life into premature death.
• Thanksgiving is a sign of honour.
• Ingratitude also manifests itself in certain actions you would miss if you are not discerning.
1 Sam 15:28

What is thanksgiving?
1. Ascribing glory to God (Jer 17:13-17)
2. Acknowledging God as the one behind good things in your life (John 3:27, James 1:17, 1 Cor 4:7)
3. Public celebration of God’s acts (Ps 103:2)
4. Recounting God’s kindness in our lives (Ps 105:1-5, 92:4)
5. Appreciating God in the present situation in order to turn it into a testimony (John 11:39-44, Ps 107:22)
• Thanksgiving is not only for what God has done but it is thanksgiving God for what He has promised to do because He is faithful.
• Thanksgiving is more powerful and faster than intercession.

UNDERSTANDING THE GREAT COMMISSION

Mat 28:18-20, John 3:16
• The name of the father , the son and Holy Ghost is the name Jesus.
• The name Jesus was given all authority (Phili 2:5-11).
• There is no other name that has been given through which all things must submit.
• You can take the name of Jesus to any corner of the world and it will deliver.
• God’s ultimate interest here on earth is the salvation of men’s souls.
• As a child of God, if you don’t understand God’s interest, you will be frustrated unnecessarily.
• We are redeemed as co-labourers of Christ in reaping the harvest.
John 15:6, 2 Cor 5 :17-18, Luke 14:23
• Your duty is to win souls and establish in the faith.
• How is your life enhancing the agenda of God while you’re here?
• Every child of God has been called to ministry (you have a ministry).
• It is not only pastors who are called to ministry.
• Every believer has been called to the ministry of reconciliation: reconciling lost souls back to God.
• An angel won’t tell your neighbor about Jesus.
• Some people don’t have time for you to witness to them, you can however invite them to come to the feast (church) where God will meet them.
• Because of the ministry of reconciliation we have, we are ambassadors.
• Being God’s ambassadors connotes that we are noble and are in honour and glory, but only if we are doing the work.
• An ambassador who is not representing the interests of his country will be recalled.
• You have been saying that you’re an ambassador for Christ but Christ’s resources are not seen around your life. This is because you’re not representing Christ’s interests on earth.
• The Israeli ambassador to Zambia enjoys Israel’s resources in Zambia.
1 Cor 3:9-10, 2 Pet 3:9, 1 Tim 2:4
• To see all men saved is God’s will.
• God is tired of dealing with baby christians who only come to church to seek breakthroughs for their own interests.
• The whole world is our harvest field.
• If you don’t want to serve God, what are you going to say to Him when you are challenged?
• Heaven has a record.
• If you build a church, according to scripture, all the souls that get saved from that church are credited to your account.
• God is looking for more labourers to join the harvest field.
• There are many members but very few labourers.
• There are many members but very few deacons.
• There are many members but very few pastors.
• Are you a labourer or a bench-warmer?
• Are you a labourer or God’s labour?

We must secure this harvest and get new converts to church for:
1. Sanctification (John 15:15, 17:17)
2. So that they can access their inheritance
3. For the allocation of their blessing (Ps 132:13-17, 63:17

• We must understand that engagement of soul-winning is a business that is open to all believers that are interested (Mat 20:20-23, 6:63)
• See it as a business, take it as a business and engage it as a business.
• Soul-winning is a hidden treasure (Mat 13:44)

SOME BENEFITS OF SOUL-WINNING
• Every soul has money in the mouth (Mat 17:27)
1. Giants rise on the platform of soul-winning (Dan 12:3)
2. Soul-winning is an investment into the future (Mal 3:17-18)
3. Soul-winning gets us on God’s payroll and that guarantees supernatural supplies ( John 4:35-36)
4. Soul-winning makes an ambassador out of a believer.
5. There is favour in soul-winning (Ps 102:13-15)
6. Quick answers to prayers (John 14:21)

HOW CAN WE GET INVOLVED IN SOUL WINNING?
1. At the altar of prayer
• Pray for souls to open their hearts to invitations, break the hold of sin over their lives, as well as pray that once they are saved they become established in a church.
• Pray that the word of God should convict people as pastor is preaching.
• Pray that the blessing will manifest in the lives of believer

2. Witnessing (preaching) to the lost
3. Inviting people to come to church (Luke 14:17-23)
4. Printing materials to send across
5. Follow-ups (Acts 15:36)
• Coming to church once is not enough, follow-up those people you invited to church until they can stand for themselves.

6. By building places of worship (Luke 7:1-5)
• Each one of us can get involved in building churches.
• In the kingdom of God, everyone can invest according to their ability.

7. Giving towards crusades and church-planting efforts
8. Assisting the needy

SACRIFICE
• There is power that is given and there is power that is acquired.
• In sacrifice, there is losing and there is dying; meaning that thing is so precious that when it moves away from you, it will leave a gap.
• The power Jesus talked about in Mat 28:18 is translated as exousia in Greek .
• Not every evil force can be driven out by an anointing.
• Anointing is limited.
• Jesus was anointed while He was on the earth but there were certain things He couldn’t achieve.
• When Jesus made the greatest sacrifice of giving up His own life, all power was given to Him.
• The greatest benefit of sacrifice is authority.
Gen 22:1-17
• Authority is the power of choice that makes men to dominate.
• Believers will be dying prematurely if they don’t understand sacrifice.
• Powers that run territories are ranked higher than demons you can cast out.
• You can’t cast out principalities with the anointing.
Christians are selfish, they only live for themselves.
2 Sam 24:24
• People who have spiritual intelligence turn to sacrifice when they are in a tight spot.
• Some afflictions will not go away because of the instruction from God you are ignoring. A man of God can lay hands on you several times but it will change nothing.
• Some realms and dimensions can only be accessed by sacrifice.
• Sacrifice is not what you think or imagine, it is the spirit you are sacrificing to that must tell you what to sacrifice (Gen 22:2).
• There is a voice you’ve been ignoring or are yet to hear.
Hag 1:5, 8
• Tithe and offerings are not sacrifices.

Deut 32:10-12
• To instruct is not the same as to teach.
• Instructions show you what you should do in order to have a particular result.
Ps 32:8-9, Prov 1:2-3, 7-10, 4:1, 13
• To be able to walk in the way you have been instructed, you need to understand.
• When you don’t have the fear of God, you don’t really have real knowledge about life.
• Life begins when you start to fear God.
• There is a relationship between the fear of God and instructions.
• When God is instructing a man, he is giving that man life.
• Obeying the instructions that God gives you entitles you to the life that those instructions can bring about.
• Divine instructions are life.
Prov 5:1-3, 10-13, 23, 6:23, 9:9, 10:17
• In our journey of life, we must be ready to be corrected.
• God may use people, things, and even pain to correct us.
• Pain can correct somebody (Heb 5:8).
• Not all pain is evil, pain can be a motivator for change.
• It is instructions that bring prosperity (Prov 13:18).
• When God’s instructions are obeyed, it leads to the supernatural.
• When instructions are obeyed, failure is turned into success and shame is turned into glory.
• God can instruct us because He knows better than all of us.
John 2:1-11, Luke 5:1-7
• The answer out of any situation you’re in is an instruction from one who knows it all.

WAYS BY WHICH WE RECEIVE INSTRUCTIONS FROM GOD
1. The word of God (2 Tim 3:16)
2. By the direct voice of God speaking to your spirit, telling you what to do
3. God can send a messenger (prophet, pastor, etc.) with a specific message
4. Through a preaching

1 Sam 15:19-22
• Every miracle requires a human participation for it to happen.

• The power of God becomes available in the direction of your consciousness.
• Wherever you are conscious of what God did , the power of God will be available in that area.
Mark 5:28-31, 1 Cor 11:21-31
• Every time you remember Jesus, remember what He died for.
• Jesus didn’t come to earth in order to live, He came in order to die and rise again.
• If Jesus was killed just after his birth, His blood would have never been able to heal anyone. He needed to run the course to prove that He was a worthy sacrifice.
• Whatever Jesus did here on earth was so that he could qualify for what He came to do.
• We were instructed to take communion often.
• There is a benefit that comes by you being conscious of Jesus’ death and demonstrating it by taking communion.
• As an individual, are you showing the Lord’s death?
• What is it that Jesus achieved through His death that we are showing through our lives that people can see and know that Jesus died and lives again?
• No one can be worthy outside of Jesus’ blood.
• As you partake of the communion, you should have the mentality that you want those things which Jesus died for to replace those things He didn’t die for that are present in your life.
Prov 13:18, John 2:5, Deut 32:10
• Instructions are what construct destinies in the kingdom of God.
• You are disorderly when you are out of instruction but orderly when you are in instruction.

Things to note concerning instructions
1. Instructions are not convenient to you
2. Instructions are not for analysis
3. An instruction places a demand on you and are non-negotiable (Ezek 4:4-5)

UNDERSTANDING THE POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION (Phili 3:10)
Rom 5:16-17, Phili 3:10
• We must understand that Jesus died for a reason.
• When we know those reasons and appropriate them in our lives, things change.
Mat 27:50-53, 1 Cor 15:20-22
• The power of resurrection has ability to open doors nothing else can open and to open graves.
• It is not necessary to remain in bondage after Jesus has resurrected.
• The power of Jesus’ resurrection is ordained for supernatural restoration (1 Cor 15:21).
• The cost of Adam’s rebellion was paid in full, proven by Jesus rising from the dead. This means man can have dignity again.
• The power of Jesus’ resurrection makes man to be supernaturally restored to his redemptive dignity.

What benefits arise out of the power of Jesus’ resurrection?
1. Turning from captivity to liberty (Mat 27:50-53)
2. We moved from defeat to victory (1 Cor 15:55-57)
3. We moved from filthiness to holiness (1 Cor 15:42, 2 Cor 5:21)
4. He turned our shame to glory (1 Cor 15:43)
5. We moved from weakness to power
6. We moved From the natural realm to the supernatural realm (1 Cor 15:44, Rom 8:11)
• A born again christian must be conscious that he should operate in the supernatural realm because he is no longer natural.
• You should feel suffocated when you’re not operating in the spirit realm.
• You are meant to live a higher life.
• You are a spirit being that lives in a body.

7. We moved From failure to breakthrough (Mat 28:18-20)
8. We moved from sickness to health (Rom 8:11)
• Our duty is to know how to quicken our spirits by the Spirit that lives in us.

9. We moved from death to life (John 14:19, Heb 2:14-15, 1 John 4:18-19, 5:13, Acts 1:3, 2 Cor 8:9)
• A born-again christian is living; cannot die but only transition
