THE MESSAGE
TEXT – 1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 5
16 Rejoice evermore.
17 Pray without ceasing.
18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
When you need good advice, you go to your friend and you cannot get a better friend than God Himself.
How can I be at peace in the midst of a storm?
How can I be sure my blood pressure will remain normal for the rest of my life?
Your friend, the Holy Spirit has given us a series of advice and we are taking just three of them that are most appropriate for our discussion.
THE ADVICES ARE:
1. Rejoice evermore
2. Pray without ceasing
3. In everything, give thanks.
REJOICE EVERMORE.
How can I rejoice all the time?
Rejoice in the morning, evening, night time and all the time.
The Bible made is clear that your rejoicing should be in the Lord.
Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.
In other words, your rejoicing should not be in anything material, physical or what is happening around you but in the Lord.
If you rejoice in the Lord, then, your joy will be constant because Malachi 3:6 says “I’m the Lord, i change not”
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever.
If I’m rejoicing in the Lord, then my joy will be constant. It doesn’t matter what’s happening, because the Lord is constant and my joy is in Him, my joy will be constant.
WHY IS HE ASKING YOU TO REJOICE IN THE LORD?
According to Nehemiah 8:10, the joy of the Lord is your strength.
HOW TO GET STRENGTH FOR EVERYTHING I HAVE TO DO?
Joy must come from the Lord.
WHAT IF I’M IN SORROW?
Rejoice because joy is coming.
Psalm 30:5 Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
As surely as day will follow night, joy will always follow sorrow.
If you have things that are supposed to give you sorrow right now, the Bible says, rejoice, because the sorrow will not last.
SUPPOSED I HAVE FAILED AN EXAMINATION, FAILED IN BUSINESS, FAILED IN MARRIAGE AND WHATEVER, AND YOU ARE ASKING ME TO REJOICE?
Ecclesiastes 9:4 As long as there is life, there is hope.
Are you still breathing?
Rejoice.
The only person who can be completely hopeless is the one who is dead and dead outside of Christ.
Are you still breathing?
Are you still alive?
Rejoice.
SUPPOSE SOME VERY GOOD FRIENDS HAVE DISAPPOINTED ME, THE PEOPLE I TRUSTED HAVE LET ME DOWN AND I FEEL SO DISAPPOINTED, DO YOU STILL ASK ME TO REJOICES?
Sure.
Because, human beings may disappoint you, Jesus will not.
Because, He said in Hebrews 13:5-6 “I will never leave you and I will never forsake you”.
Oh! So the fellow who promised to marry has disappointed you.
That fellow who said is going to get you a job has disappointed you.
The fellow who promised you promotion has disappointed you.
Don’t worry, there is a friend who will never leave you and forsake you, His name is Jesus Christ.
ARE YOU WORRIED ABOUT TOMORROW?
You don’t know what tomorrow is going to bring, yet, the Bible says “rejoice”.
If you are worried about tomorrow, remember Colossians 1:27, Christ in you the hope of glory.
How many of you believe your end is going to be good?
Let me hear you shout Hallelujah.
Hallelujah!
2. PRAY WITHOUT CEASING
Jeremiah 33:3 If you call on me, I will answer.
Many people don’t pray because they don’t believe God is going to answer.
God will answer, He is not a liar.
Matthew 7:7-8 Ask, you shall be given
Seek and you shall find, Knock and the door shall be opened unto you.
God is not a liar.
If He asked you to ask, keep asking until He answers.
If He asked you to seek, keep seeking until you find.
If He asked you to knock, keep knocking until the door is open unto you.
PRAYERS:
i. Just one more prayer and breakthrough will come.
ii. Somebody is going to have a breakthrough today.
I have prayed all manners of prayer and i have not gotten result
Maybe you are praying the wrong prayer.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN SIR?
May be the only prayer you should pray is just one: ask God for mercy.
Lamentation 3:22-23 It is of the mercy of the Lord that we are not consumed.
You are alive today not because you are good and clever but, God just decided to be merciful.
Romans chapter 9
15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that showeth mercy.
If you record your prayers and listen to it, you will wonder what is wrong with you.
What you need from God is mercy.
Do I hear somebody say “God have mercy on me”.
3. IN EVERYTHING, GIVE THANKS.
Psalm 50:14-16
Give thanks before you call on me.
Come to His presence with thanksgiving.
Thank him for what He has done in the past.
That you are still alive today is enough to thank God for.
You might have suffered some losses, without the mercy of God, things would have been worse, give thanks.
WHY SHOULD I GIVE THANKS?
Because, this is the will of God.
God said, “this what I want.”
WHY SHOULD I GIVE THANKS DESPITE STORM THAT IS TOSSING ME UP AND DOWN?
Give thanks because God is still on His throne.
Isaiah 66:1 Heaven is His throne the earth is His footstool.
God is in control and He knows the end from the beginning.
Acts 15:18 Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the earth.
HOW MANY OF THE IMPORTANT THINGS IN YOUR LIFE HAPPENED WITHOUT GOD REFERRING TO YOU AT ALL?
Are you the one who chose your father?
Are you the one who chose your mother?
Are you the one who chose the village where you will be born?
Are you the one who told the Almighty God to make you a boy or a girl, tall or short?
He said “before I formed you in the belly, I knew you.”
Before you were born, He had everything about you in mind planned out.
PRAYER:
It doesn’t matter how many enemies are working against you, what God has decided concerning you shall come to pass.
Because He is Alpha and Omega, Revelation 1:8, He is the Beginning as well as the Ending. He started with you and He is going to complete with you.
There are not enough demons in hell to kill you.
When my God kills, that is when somebody dies.
When He says this fellow is going to live, that fellow will live.
If He says “it is going to be well with you”, it will be well.
GIVE THANKS PARTICULARLY FOR KNOWING JESUS.
The only one who has a lot to worry about is the one who refuses to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.
If you have not given your life to Jesus Christ, there is trouble ahead, but if you are a child of God; born again, washed in the blood, looking forward to the glorious return of the Lord Jesus Christ, winning souls, following them up and building the kingdom of God, i can assure you, tomorrow will be alright.
You will one day look back and say daddy GO said so.
When the barren begins to carry one baby on the right and another on the left.
When the one who thought he was going to die a tenant, begins to dedicate his mansion.
When the one who thought he was going to die a messenger becomes the chairman of his own company
You will look back and say “that small pastor said so”.
ALTAR CALL
If you have not given your life to Jesus Christ, you are the only one in serious trouble, but you can run out of trouble by running to Jesus Christ.
He said “come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden and i will give you rest”
Come to Him, let Him save your soul and i can guarantee you, your future will be alright.
If you want to give your life to Jesus Christ, come now.
Those of you who are in front, talk to the Almighty God: “ask Him, please Lord, save my soul, forgive all my sins, I will serve You for the rest of my life, be my Lord and Saviour.
Brethren, let’s intercede for them, pray that the One who saved our souls will save theirs also, pray that the Almighty God who washed away our sins with His blood will wash away their sins and give them a brand new beginning. Let’s call on the Saviour to save their souls and give them a brand new beginning. Lord, receive them into the family of God.
PRAYER FOR SALVATION
My Father and my God, we just want to say thank You for Your word, thank You for these Your children who have come forward to surrender their lives to You, please Lord, remember Your promise that whosoever will come to You, You will no wise cast out, they have come to You now, Father, please, receive them, save their souls, let Your blood wash away their sins, give them a brand new beginning Lord, write their names in the Book of life, from this moment, anytime they call on You, please, answer them by fire, whatever they want from You, Lord God Almighty, give to them today, in Jesus’ mighty name we have prayed.
Amen!
Praise the Lord.
Hallelujah!
