Walking In The Steps Of Abraham

Winners’ Chapel International Inc.

                            August 2013 Teaching Outline for Midweek Services

                Prophetic Focus:   SEASON OF SUDDEN VISITATIONS – Ps 126:1-6

    Teaching Series: WALKING IN THE STEPS OF ABRAHAM (Part I- IV)

“Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that bare you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased him.

For the LORD shall comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places; and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.”      Is. 51:2-3

(See also: John 8:39, Gal 3:29)

Introduction:

Abraham was empowered for financial fortune through divine visitations all of which came suddenly (Gen 12:1-3/ Gen 22:1-18). Abraham stands out as a reference point for supernatural blessings all through scriptures. Even Christ was crucified to connect us to the blessings of Abraham among others. (Gal. 3:13-14). But walking in the steps of Abraham is the only way to access the Abrahamic order of blessings.

Walking In Financial Fortune

Winners’ Chapel International Inc.

        August 2013 Teaching Outline for Sunday Services

                        Prophetic Focus:  SEASON OF SUDDEN VISITATIONS – Ps 126:1-6

                                          Teaching Series: Walking in Financial Fortune (Part I- IV)

Introduction: King Solomon walked his way into financial fortune through sudden visitation in response to His sacrifice. His sacrifices of love ascended the heaven as a sweet smelling savour, while God in return opened the heaven over the life of Solomon for supernatural fortunes- 1Kg 3:3-13. It is time for all Winners this month to enjoy divine visitation for a supernatural turnaround. 

PART 1 - Walking in Financial Fortune (Part I) - UNDERSTANDING THE COVENANT OF PROSPERITY

What is Covenant? A Covenant is a contractual agreement between two or more parties. In this case, agreement between God and man. God’s integrity is committed to make good his promise when man’s obedience is fully in place. – Ps 89:34; Jer. 33:20-21.

·       A covenant can also be defined as a deal enacted by God based on well-defined terms and sealed with an oath. Heb. 6:13-18

·       The Covenant is God’s wisdom for empowering believers for supernatural prosperity-Deut. 8:18, Matt7:24-25.

·       An understanding of the terms of the covenant will open anyone up to the fullness of God’s prosperity plan – Job. 22:21-27; Philip. 4:15-19.

·       The Covenant is a walk with God and not a financial game - Gen. 17:1-8; 2 Chron. 15:1-15.

·       Seed time and harvest constitute the anchor of our covenant walk-Gen.8:20-22; Gal6:7-9; 2Cor. 9:6-10.

NOTE: To enjoy Abrahamic order of blessings, we need a working knowledge of the covenant and a commitment to the practise of its terms. – 1 Tim. 4:7-8

PART 2 – Walking in Financial Fortune (Part II) - UNDERSTANDING WHY GOD BLESSES

God’s prosperity plan hinges on the believer’s readiness to be a blessing.

Until we understand the secret of being a blessing, we may never experience the fullness of God’s blessings in our lives – Gen. 12:2; Gen. 22:15-18; Acts 20:35; Gal. 6:10

God blesses us:

* To establish His covenant (Deut. 8;18, II Cor.8:9, Gal. 3;13-14)  *To enjoy abundant life – (I Tim. 6:17-19)

* To rescue us from shame (Joel 2:21-27, 2Pet1;3)                           *To promote the kingdom(Zech.1:17)                                         *To use us to be a blessing to humanity (Gen. 12:1-3;22:17-19, 2 Cor. 8;6,I Tim. 6:17-19)

NOTE: When we commit to God’s purpose for blessing, His blessings continue to flow.

PART 3 – Walking in Financial Fortune (Part III) - UNDERSTANDING HOW GOD PROSPERS

God’s prosperity can be realised when we correctly position ourselves. God prospers His people through the following avenues:

·      Through the Works of your Hands: If you are not a worker, you are not a candidate for God’s prosperity. God cannot bless an idle hand, no matter how fervent he is at giving. 

- Ps 1:3; Prov. 14:23; Prov. 10:4; Prov. 20:4

* Abraham – A Hard worker – (Gen.13:1-2)          *Isaac – A Tireless worker - (Gen. 26;1-14)

*Jacob – A Creative worker – (Gen.  30:37-43)

·      Through the Flow of Divine Ideas: For instance, in response to our tithes and offerings, God opens the windows of heaven and pours out the rain of divine ideas upon His people. This rain is typified by the Holy Spirit quickening our minds with creative ideas that links us up with the flow of blessings - Mal. 3:8-12; Isa. 11:1-3; Gen. 26:18;          Gen. 30:37-39.

Remember, the Spirit of God is the Spirit of wisdom and wisdom is a vital force for wealth creation – the wiser, the wealthier.

·      Through Divine Favour- (Ex3;21/12:36,Ps 105:37)

    *At the root of financial fortune is divine favour    

PART 4 – Walking in Financial Fortune (Part IV) - HOW TO MAINTAIN THE FLOW OF FINANCIAL PROSPERITY

·      Be committed to Kingdom Investment - Hag. 1:3-11; Job 36:11; Matt. 6:33.

·      Be committed to blessing the needy  –  Prov. 28:27;Prov. 11:24; 2 Cor. 9:10; Acts 20:35;

·      Be steadfast in your Covenant practise - 1 Cor.15: 58; Acts 26:22.

What to Do:

·       Identify covenant opportunities around you for investment   - Job 29:4-17.

·       Commit to meeting such needs as you are able –1 Peter 4:11.

·       Enlarge your heart and increase your investment as you see increases in your life – Deut. 16:10,17

NOTE: A kingdom-centred life and living for the well being of others is key to maintaining the flow of God’s blessings in our lives.

Prophetic Focus - August 2013 - Season Of Sudden Visitation - Psalms 126:1 - 6

‘Next levels’ greetings in the precious name of Jesus Christ.

By the events of this year till date God has further established supernatural breakthrough as our identity both as a church and as individual members. Diverse humbling testimonies of inexplainable breakthroughs including explosive church growth across our church network worldwide attest to this fact and to our God be all the glory!

But what is the Holy Ghost saying for this month of August 2013?

Back on the 26^th August, 1987 while away on a mission trip to the United States, God suddenly visited me delivering an additional task saying, “Get back home and make my people rich”. Today, I have no doubt that several thousands and perhaps millions around the world have been delivered from the shackles of poverty and brought into realms of financial fortune. Again to God be all the glory!

Just as God fulfilled His plan to visit Israel and bring them out of the land of captivity into a land flowing with milk and honey by sending His prophet, Moses, in the same vein, God has sent me to this generation to bring out His people from the bondage of poverty, lack and want into a realm of financial fortune. And as the Lord lives, this shall again be diversely confirmed this month (Gen 50:24,   Ex 3:7-10,Ex 3:21,12:36, Ps 105:37)

However, all through scriptures most turnaround encounters came suddenly:

·      Sudden visitation turned Abraham to a symbol of generational blessing

(Gen 12:1-4/ 22:1-18/24:1)

·      God visited Solomon suddenly, and as result he became the wealthiest man in Bible history {1Kg 3:3-13/ 1Kg 4:22-27/1Kg 10:4-23 (23)}

·      The widow of Zarephath also had a sudden visitation that turned her to a wonder, all through the time of famine (1Kg 17:8-15).

By the grace of God, I am also a testimony of the validity of sudden visitations as I have shared several times.  For instance, God suddenly visited me in the month of May 1987 with an instruction which I obeyed excitedly and in response, God said; “My Son David, even if you don’t want to be rich, it is too late”. What a sudden encounter that was! Again, on September 4, 1987 I had another sudden visitation which brought this church under an open heaven of financial fortune.

I believe God, that the month of August shall be a month of sudden visitations resulting in supernatural turnarounds for all Winners. Therefore, the month of August 2013 shall be our:

Season of Sudden Visitations – Ps 126:1-6

We must all get spiritually set for supernatural change of levels in our finances among others all through this new month.
