How God Leads Us Today By Bishop Oyedepo

Hello Guys,


I was at our(Living Faith Church Worldwide) Midweek Service Last Night. Having read his book Understanding Divine Direction, I put two and two together and was able to take notes that I wanna share. A lot of us are divided on life issues. I shake my head when I see headlines on Tithing and why we should pay or not pay.  Questions like "how do I know he is the one" comes up on every blog/social media.

I hope the notes that I took from the service will help. It certainly helped me. You can also hear/watch the message via this Youtube Link For How God Leads Today Sermon By Bishop Oyedepo

Sermon: How God Leads Today(March 7, 2018)Texts from  Psalm 23:1-6, John 10:21
What are the requirements for Divine Guidance?

1. Be full of the word of God. To defeat the devil, you must be word loaded to avoid misguidance. God guides us today via His Word or you'd be misguided. Ps 119:105. It is the standard that helps you identify what's not from God's word. Amos 3:3, 2 Cor 6:14. When God speaks, you have peace Ps 85:8, Malachi 3:6. God's word is the sound of joy Ps.89:15... no struggle and no tension. These signs helps us to know.

2. Rejoice in the Lord always. Ps. 16:11. Phil 4:4, Isaiah 30:29-31. If you can't find joy Acts 20:22, you can't access His voice.

3. Joy of salvation is one of the features of salvation. The fruits of the spirit are proofs that that one is born again Galatians 5:22-23. Proofs of redemption. No true believer gets easily depressed. Hen 12:2. If you can't find the fruits, check if your salvation is real. Anytime you are in doubt of the/your next step, stay where you are. If he's silent, remain where you are. Don't jump from one business to another or one job to another
Some of The benefits of Divine Guidiance

1. The peace that passes all understanding/knowledge Isaiah 48:17-18. Ever confident. Peace like a river. Psalm 23:4. You fear no evil. Mark 4:35-40, John 5:30, proverbs 3:13-17. Walking in divine guidance =Wisdom. You get peace and direction from God. Job 3:25, Prov.14:12.

2. Supernatural refreshment psalms 23:1-4 Great things happen and it's like nothing. God's leading refreshes our soul Psalm 23:3, Watch out against tensions, they aren't godly. Keep away from what is lost and look ahead for what is to come.

Don't allow what will tamper with your joy. Phil 4:4, 1 thess 5:16.. lay your complaints aside and look up to Jesus. PS. 121;1, Isaah 48:21, God's leading always culminate in a gushing. Prob. 3:5-6, Ps.23;1,5. The enemy can't stop me when God is leading me. Ps. 24:7,8. No more assumptions/guesswork.

My First Day In Ikoyi Prison

Hello guys, I was led to join the Prison Ministry in my church many moons ago. I had a desire to help people in many ways by providing resources,  my time, etc. Serving there has been a blessing.  Ikoyi Prison Entrance My first experience at Ikoyi Prison, Falomo was enriching. I left home early to avoid the usual Third Mainland Bridge traffic so that I could make it to the Prison and join my team mates on time so I was feeling drowsy. I was surprised when my team mate said I should not worry that the sleep would disappear as soon as we step in. She was right. I forgot the sleep and was emotional all through our stay/service. Before we entered the facility, we were thoroughly searched. Azzin!! Head to toe something. No phones allowed. No sharp objects either. Then I saw the men.  There were so many men. So many hungry and hopeful gazes at us. We were led to the Church, yes, there are two churches and a mosque in that facility. I was impressed an...

Customer Service Talk with Jane

  The not so huge secret is out! I have been sharing some business tips on this blog but I am more passionate about Customer Service and I am very vocal about this not because of my years of experience working as a Customer Service Executive but because Nigerian vendors like to test our patience and I have experienced too much of it to ignore. I have also been hosting talks on a Whatsapp group for a while now where I share some tips and my Customer Service experience, answer questions business owners have and how to resolve customer complaints satisfactorily. I am excited to share publicly that I will be hosting another Customer Service Talk on March 6, 2022 by 8pm. Attendance is free and virtual(Google Meet) but you have to register. See link below: https://forms.gle/Jp9cTX6fTLNUzpnf6 See you there!

Don't Keep Your Customers Waiting

Feedbacks like the above aren't good for business growth as they discourage other "intending" Customers. You should not keep Customers waiting whether you own a kiosk or a conglomerate.  We have terrible and incompetent policymakers in Nigeria whose policies crumble businesses, but business owners should play their part and ensure they keep their businesses afloat by keeping loyal Customers satisfied.  When you satisfy your clients, they would not leave. They will bring more clients to you saving you the cost budgeted for Advertisement and Promotion. One of the parts you need to play well is to hire willing and loyal staff. I didn't believe tales of few good or employable people until I started helping employers to hire people. The labour market is not encouraging, yes, but you should keep searching. You can use job sites well, give them your requirements and pay the applicable fee needed to get what you want. You can also headhunt after proper due diligence. If you d...
