*ENDURE CRITICISM ON YOUR WAY UP ~ PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME*


*_"My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations" (James 1:2)._*

I've heard some ministers say, *"I don't like criticism at all."* If you're in that group, it means you're not yet ready for the real work; the miraculous. The moment miracles start in your ministry, you'll start hearing things like, *"Hmmn! Who does he think he is?"* *"Where does he get his power?"* *"The miracles are fake!"*

Show me a man who has enemies and I'll show you a successful man. A hard statement, but a true one nonetheless! Nobody needs to announce you when you don't amount to a heap of beans. Nobody will criticize you when your car is smoking like a chimney all over town. The reason they don't criticize you is because they haven't noticed you. When they notice you, they'll criticize you for sure!

So when the people around you say nasty things about you, don't be angry or mad at them, don't even reply your critics. Just smile! God has made you a city that's set upon a hill; you cannot be hidden (Matthew 5:14). He wants to display you for all the world to see.

It's not necessary to run from criticism. Besides, you wouldn't be the first to be criticised. Remember that David was criticized by his brothers after he was anointed by Samuel. Eliab, his eldest brother criticized him when he showed up at the war front, but David was unperturbed by his criticism. By this attitude he was able to fulfil his destiny by killing Goliath (1 Samuel 17:42-50). Even the Lord Jesus was criticized by the scribes, Pharisees and Sadducees because of His miracles. So you see, you shouldn't worry about about your critics neither should you be disturbed that you're the devil's target. It's at that point that God becomes your Jehovah Nissi - The Lord your Banner. *Hallelujah!* Right in the midst of the problem you can say like David, *_"...now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me..."_* (Psalm 27:6). Count it all joy for you're a victor at every count.

Pastor Biodun Lawal tells a story.

  JESUS CALLED ME! My name is Pastor Biodun Lawal. I am the zonal pastor of Christ Embassy Accra, Ghana and I want to thank our man of God, our pastor, our coach and our father for the opportunity to share my salvation testimony with you. I title it Jesus Called Me. I was born and raised up in a Muslim house, my parents were Muslims. I was trained as a kid to go to Quranic School and on how to lead prayers in the mosque as well. I grew up as a Muslim learning the things that a young Muslim should do. As at that time, my parents had a lot of Christian friends and at the age of five my parents allow me to follow their friends children to church(Sunday school) and that was my first encounter with Christianity. All the things that we were taught at the Sunday school didn’t make sense to me then because I only followed the children to go and play. Then suddenly, my parents stopped me from attending the Sunday school because they had wanted me to focus on their religion which is Islam. They

Testimony Of How I Got Born Again. REV TOM AMENKHIENAN. Pastor Chris Led Me To Salvation.

  JESUS LOVES ME! HE HAD MY LIFE ALL PLANNED OUT. I was born into a Roman Catholic family setting, with a strong influence of the Roman Catholic culture running through the entire family because my maternal Grandparents had been very committed and recognized leaders in the Roman Catholic Church. I was baptized and confirmed at an early age and soon enlisted as an Altar Boy (Mass Server). At this early age, the Priests and Reverend Fathers in charge of our local assembly (mostly foreigners, especially from Ireland), deliberately sought to groom, tailor and mentor me in the direction of becoming a Roman Catholic Priest, encouraging me to attend the Seminary once I came of age. I grew up with this background and was indoctrinated in it until I had my first encounter with another Christian Group in my Secondary School days when a group from the Scripture Union organized a fellowship in our school and preached the gospel to me. I attended a few of their fellowship meetings and tried to prac

WHO ARE YOU DATING (for Christian singles)

DON'T DATE A MAN MARELY BECAUSE HE IS CARING AND NICE... LIFE IS SPIRITUAL, Satan can use a nice man to destroy your life, Satan can enter into the heart of a caring man to destroy your destiny, I feel sorry for some Christian sisters, they met a nice guy who takes care of them but HE  DOESNT TAKE SPIRITUAL THINGS SERIOUSLY, HE DOESNT LOVE GOD, HE DOESNT LIKE CHURCH, but he is a nice man, he sends them gifts and money, ITS A TRAP...you are like a fish being decived with a food in the hook, You are joking with your life, That nice man can change overnight and become a monster, you won't belive your eyes.... WHY ??? Because man is a spirit, Therefore his life is controled spiritually, If the spirit of God is not influencing him, Satan is most likely to use him to run his operations, And besides that, not everyone you see in this world is a complete human beign, There are people who work in the bank, they are engineers, doctors, lawyers, politicians, even pastors who are Children
