1st Service for the Month of AUGUST 2023

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE FIRST SERMON OF THE MONTH DELIVERED BY PASTOR JUMOKE OPEDARE ON THE 6th of August 2023

On Sunday the 6th of August 2023, Pastor Jumoke OPEDARE delivered a powerful sermon titled “Look Out for Result,” which dwelled on the importance of looking out for results and abiding in Christ. The sermon emphasized the significance of achieving favorable outcomes in various aspects of life and stressed that our areas of focus determine our results, while neglecting certain areas leads to failures.

She began by acknowledging that God is a miracle-working God who never fails to fulfil His promises. She pointed out that good results, whether in exams, elections, work targets, or any other area, can lead to advancement, increased income, and success.

Drawing inspiration from various Bible passages Pastor Jumoke Opedare noted that our focus determines our results, and that areas of neglect often lead to failures. She cited Acts 11:19-26, which tells the story of Barnabas and Saul spreading the word of God in Antioch and reminded us that their efforts resulted in a great number of people embracing faith which prompted the Church in Jerusalem to send Barnabas to nurture the growing community. She said the collaboration between Barnabas and Saul led to a year of teaching and discipleship, and pointed out that the disciples were referred to as Christians for the first time in Antioch.

The Pastor also emphasised the need to seek results by changing our mindset from self-serving to serving the Lord and others. John 15:1-5 underscored the significance of abiding in Christ, the true vine. She explained that by remaining connected to God, we can bear spiritual fruit, experience answered prayers, find peace amidst storms, undergo transformation, forgiveness of sins and receive a robe of righteousness.

Pastor Jumoke Opedare prayed that the Lord will help us in in this assignment in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen.
