MESSAGE:
The Almighty God is one, yet He
manifests Himself as three
different persons: the Father, the
Son and the Holy Spirit. Different
things happen that reveal the
multifaceted nature of God's
character whenever He manifests
Himself as any of these three
persons. When God manifests
Himself as God the Father, the
earth trembles, the hills melt and
the enemies scatter (Nahum 1:5).
When He manifests as God the
Son, He is seen as the Lamb of
God that takes away the sins of
the world (John 1:29). He also
comes in the likeness of the
fourth man who meets you in
the fiery furnace and terminates
the power of fire (Daniel 3:25).
As God the Son, He comes as a
gentle person who invites all
who are heavy Laden to come to
Him for rest (Matthew 11:28).
When God manifests as the Holy
Spirit, He comes as the
consuming fire (Hebrews 12:29).
One man who experienced God
as the consuming fire was
Samson. Bound and delivered to
his enemies, when the Holy Spirit
came mightily on him, all the
cords binding him were
immediately consumed (Judges
15:14). This season, every cord
that is tying you to the same spot
shall be consumed by the fire of
the Holy Ghost in Jesus' Name.
Moreover, speaking of God the
Father, there are several things
you need to know about Him;
one of which is that He is the one
who made the heavens and the
earth (Genesis 1:1). Because He
made the heavens and the earth
and everything in them, in
Genesis 14:19, He is called
Possessor of heaven and earth.
What a powerful title! You cannot
know God as Possessor of
heaven and earth and still live in
poverty. This title of God was
revealed to Abraham through
Melchizedek, king of Salem. Ever
since then, wealth and affluence
have existed in Abraham's
lineage. You cannot know God
the Father as Possessor of
heaven and earth and still be
homeless. He will definitely create
a place for you when you upon
Him. Your knowledge of God as
Possessor of heaven and earth
will release the power material
possessions to you. Do have any
challenge with accommodation?
Maybe you have nowhere to lay
your head. Jesus in John 14:2a
says this to you:
"In my Father's house are many
mansions..."
If you catch this revelation in
your spirit, all your
accommodation problems can be
resolved when you call upon Him.
Call upon Him today, and He will
sort you out.
Key Point:
If all you have is the Possessor of
heaven and earth, you have
everything.

HYMN 3: HOW GREAT THOU ART
1. O LORD my God! When I in
awesome wonder
Consider all the works Thy hand
hath made;
I see the stars, I hear the mighty
thunder,
Thy pow’r throughout the
universe displayed:
Chorus:
Then sings my soul, my Saviour
God, to Thee,
How great Thou art! How great
Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Saviour
God, to Thee,
How great Thou art! How great
Thou art!
2. When through the woods and
forest glades I wander
And hear the birds sing sweetly
in the trees;
When I look down from lofty
mountain grandeur,
And hear the brook, and feel the
gentle breeze:
Chorus:
3. And when I think that God, His
Son not sparing,
Sent Him to die - I scarce can take
it in:
That on the Cross, my burden
gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away
my sin:
Chorus:
4. When Christ shall come with
shout of acclamation
And take me home - what joy
shall fill my heart!
Then shall I bow in humble
adoration,
And there proclaim, my God how
great Thou art!
Chorus.
