TAKE IT TO THE BANK!

(Always Take God At His Word!)

📖TO THE BIBLE: Luke 5:5-6

“...Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.” And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking.”

▶️LET’S TALK

When you read Mark 7, it gives an account of a Syrophoenician woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit. She cried out to the Lord Jesus, imploring Him to heal her daughter, but the Master didn’t respond. She remained persistent until the disciples were somewhat embarrassed, and asked Jesus to send her away. Jesus then said to her, “...Let the children be fi lled first, for it is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the little dogs” (Mark 7:27).

Undaunted by this response, she replied, “...Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs under the table eat from the children’s crumbs” (Mark 7:28). The woman had great faith, which the Lord commended, saying, “...For this saying go your way; the demon has gone out of your daughter” (Mark 7:29).

I love the way Jesus ministered to that woman. He didn’t talk to the demon; He didn’t say, “Devil, go out of the girl!” Rather, while talking to the woman, He said, “The demon is gone out from your daughter.” That was all the woman needed—a Word from the Master—and she took a hold of that word by faith.

A similar story is that of a nobleman whose son was dying. He spoke with Jesus and all the Master said was “Go your way; your son lives....” The Bible says, “...the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way” (John 4:50). He took the Master at His Word and went away, expecting a miracle.

“Good news, master! The boy is well!” his servants said to him as he returned (John 4:51).

“What time did he begin to get better?” the nobleman asked. The servants replied, “...Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him” (John 4:52). The man then realised that the

miracle took place at the same time Jesus spoke the words of healing. All you need to come out of any predicament is a Word from God: find out what He has said concerning your situation and take a hold of His Word, standing your ground in faith.

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 ...

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. T...
