GOD, REPLACE MY EVIL YEARS WITH GOOD

sermon 6. GOD, REPLACE MY EVIL YEARS WITH GOOD

A Sermon preached on 28th January, 2018.
"Give us gladness in proportion to our former misery; replace the evil years with good"--- Psalm 90:15 NLT

Moses uttered this prayer having remembered the forty years of exile in Egypt. He knew that God's children had suffered greatly, and had been afflicted severely under the yoke of enslavement. And now is a time of plea, making petitions to God, Lord, make us glad because we have been in Egypt for forty years living a life full of misery, a life that is not comfortable to us, a life of pains and grief, a life we get drowned in tears for many years. But this time, we ask you to replace all our evil years with good.

Note: Your evil years shall be replaced with good, death with life, replacing poverty with riches, failure with success, infertility with fertility, sickness with good health.

Job 42:10 gives us a clear picture of the sermon. For many years that Job had been in misery. He was struck with disease, his property was destroyed and his children were gravely killed by a mighty windstorm caused by Satan. As job began to pray for his friends who sinned against God, his fortune was restored to him. I say to you that God's restoration is locating you this year. The evil years you have been living are replaced with good. Rise up, and put your faith in action. Trust in God, he will deliver you from such evil years of unproductive life for the days of your mourning have come to an end, (see Isaiah 60:20).

God bless you!

YOUR KING IS COMING

YOUR KING IS COMING A sermon preached on the Palm Sunday !4 th /04/2019 @ A.C.F.M. Umudi Igbodo Etche Rivers State of Nigeria by Fortune Nwaiwu Mat 21:5 KJV: Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass. We are here today to celebrate and to remember a certain day our Lord Jesus Christ rode on a donkey’s colt to Jerusalem. It was a day of his triumphant entry to his church. I have a story to tell you. There was a very poor man walking in a street. His name was James. As he’s walking a man tapped on his shoulder and said, “James, you are a king’. James looked at himself and then retorted: “How can I be a king when I have no kingdom to rule? And how will I acquire the kingdom when my family is poor? Please do not tease me or less my mind explode with false hope. For you to be a king, there must be a kingdom to rule. There must be riches before you become a rich man, and you must have amas...

FOLLOW GOD'S INSTRUCTIONS WITHOUT DEVIATING

sermon 15. FOLLOW GOD’S INSTRUCTIONS WITHOUT DEVIATING A Sermon Preached on Sunday 4th June, 2017. “Whoever despises instruction will pay for it, but he who respects a command will be rewarded”─ Prov. 13:13. A  story was told about one sick girl in a hospital. Oxygen was put in her both nose and mouth to enable her breath. A young man visited her in the hospital and found her in her sick bed with the oxygen through which she breathed. The man sat on the same bed without knowing that he placed his right foot on the oxygen pipe supplying air to the girl. The girl brought out her pen and a piece of paper and wrote: “You are keeping your right foot on the oxygen supplying me air. Could you please remove your leg from there?” The girl gave the man this instruction but the man put the written note in the pocket of his shirt, and kept on talking with the girl until the girl died because, the man had snubbed to read the instruction given to him. Brethren, what the story teaches us i...

RESTORE TO ME THE JOY OF YOUR SALVATION

A sermon preached by Fortune Nwaiwu Psa 51:12 NHEB Restore to me the joy of your salvation. Uphold me with a willing spirit. Introduction There is no man on earth that has not in one way or the other experienced the joy of the LORD in his life. Though some people right from their childhood experience pain, and sorrow- their lives know no joy or happiness, while some people's lives progress from happiness to sorrow due to some circumstances, or crimes committed. To crown it all, sins drag away man's joy of salvation. David's crime of adultery with Bathsheba almost devastated his life. The story of this event really shows how human beings reason in some cases, a train of thoughts that are connected to produce that which is inimical, and diabolical to humanity. The story is told and we learn that: David casted his lustful eyes on Bathsheba, which led to committing of adultery, and his subsequent murder of Uriah, the husband of Bathsheba. For David to invite Uriah to return fr...
