Theme: THE LAST SEVEN WORDS OF JESUS

Speaker: Rev. Ebenezer Okronipa

1. Luke 23:34

 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

2. Luke 23:43

And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.

3. John 19:26

 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.

4. Matthew 27:46

6 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

5. John 19:28

 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.

6. John 19:30

 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

7. Luke 23:46

6 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.

Theme: JESUS THE DIVINE 

Speaker: Rev. Ebenezer Okronipa

Philippians 3:10-11

10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

11 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.

Jesus suffered for us that we may do it for him.

God wants us to come to an awareness of what we believe. 

We must know the power of the blood if we are to know the power of God. 

The death of Jesus is called the vicarious death = substitutionary death. 

Jesus was not a martyr but His death was a sacrifice. He was born to die. 

Jesus paid the price for our salvation - redemption

2 Corinthians 5:14

14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:

We must live our lives for Jesus. God wants to use us for something glorious.

Theme: JESUS THE DIVINE

Speaker : Rev. Ebenezer Okronipa

Luke 19:1-9

5 And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house.

9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.

Jesus is the savior of sinners. He does not reject us when we turn to Him. 

Jesus is the revelation of grace. 

What you know about Jesus affects your Christianity. Salvation is not a feeling but an action. 

The grace of God is what saves men not the condemnation of men. 

Hebrews 12:22-24

Anytime you are winning Christ, you are losing the world and vice versa. 

The knowledge of Jesus Christ even protects us. 

When you encounter Jesus the things you consider most valuable will change. 

Jesus is God in flesh. Acts 20:28. 

He was one with the Father. John 10:30

Theme: JESUS THE DIVINE

Speaker: Rev. Ebenezer Okronipa

1 Timothy 3:16

16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

Jesus was not a half God and half man, but was fully represented as God and fully man. 

Jesus was not just a prophet, nor a preacher, a healer, an evangelist but God represented in the form of human. 

What saves a man is not his faith in God but his faith in Jesus. 

The gospel that saves is the gospel of Jesus. 

Jesus was God. 1 John 5:7

7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

Jesus had the portrait of God and the portrait of a servant in the likeness of men. 

He was the lamb of God who was sent to die for the sins of the world. 

The birth of Jesus was a prophecy. 

He was born of a virgin woman by the Holy Ghost. Matthew 1:22-23

He is a wonder to historians, scientists, religious people and demons. 

He was of the tribe of Judah. Genesis 22:18. Matthew 1:1

He healed all manner of sicknesses. Mark 7:32. Matthew 8:1-3

Genesis 8:22

 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

Theme: JOIN THIS CHARIOT

Speaker: Rev. Ebenezer Okronipa

Acts 8:26-29

And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.

27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship,

28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.

29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.

There are people we must get to know and draw them to the Lord.

Use every gift God has given you to draw people to the Lord. 

God wants everybody to be involved in the work. The greatest ministry is the ministry that pertains to souls and turning the heart of people back to the Lord.

Matthew 9:35-38

The harvest is talking about the end times. Luke 10:1-2. Daniel 12:3

There is a call on the life of every child of God. Matthew 28:19

Until we are connected to the harvest, we are not connected to God's eternal blessings. John 4:35-36. 

We must think of the Kingdom of God. When you think of the Kingdom;

God will take care of you

You will gather fruit.

We need to have compassion for humanity. 1 Corinthians 1:18-21

Theme: PROPHETIC ENTHRONEMENT

Speaker: Rev. Ebenezer Okronipa

Enthronement means to install on a throne a monarch or a bishop in a time which marks the beginning of new things and their rule. 

Enthronement is a ceremony of inauguration involving a person being formally seated for the first time upon a throne. 

1. Family monarchs

2. Political monarchs

3. Military monarchs

4. Circumstantial leadership

Matthew 9:36-38

Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;

38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

The most important harvest is in the harvest of souls.

When a soul is saved there is joy even heaven. Luke 15:19

Theme: PROPHETIC ENTHRONEMENT

Luke 19:41-44

 Now as He drew near, He saw the city and wept over it, 42 saying, “If you had known, even you, especially in this your day, the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. 43 For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, 44 and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know the time of your visitation.”
