WATCHMAN CATHOLIC CHARISMATIC RENEWAL MOVEMENT
2021 FIRST FRUIT FASTING EXERCISE 20th Jan. – 9th Feb. 2021
(Day 12)
Theme: IDYLLIC ERA OF CONCEPTION AND PARTURITION
Topic: BEHOLD YOUR OPEN DOOR
Text: Acts 20:21
I wish to welcome all you precious people the connected to this online ministration. I trust that God will richly bless you.
Today is the 12th day of the 21 days exercise and I wish to announce that your door is now open. Hagar was before a well but never saw it until her eyes by the angel (Gen.21:19).
From our text, Apostle Paul had access to and testified to both Jews and Greeks. This is symbolic of access to all (Jews and gentiles) (1Cor.16:8). The same was the information for the Church in Philadelphia (Rev.3:8).
When the door is open, then there is opportunity for increase or overflow, privately and corporately (Ps.24:7, Isa.12:6).
NB: This does not suggest staying idle and only praying (Eccl.9:10, Prov.12:24-27, 13:4, 21:5, 22:24).
THE IMPLICATION
Every member of the movement in the diocese must be ready to conceive and deliver to the Kingdom: Pastors, Music Ministers, Investors (Captains of consolation), Security unit, Youth Children pastors etc.
The primary purpose of a saint in seeking prosperity should be for the well being of the Kingdom (Matt.6:33).
Then, with Kingdom progress at the front burner of your mind that is shift from self-central
living to Kingdom conscious living:
(i) Get ready for the windows of opportunity that will come you way to sustain or increase your finances (Deut.8:18).
(ii) Make strategic plans for evangelism to increase the numerical strength of the local church.
*Strategize for evangelism (personal and corporate)
* Revive follow-up activity (personal and general)
* Reinvent the prayer force. (iii) Overseers (district, parish) must plan for the accommodation of ALL (socially high people inclusive) in their auditoriums.
* Members must plan for areas of investment in the Kingdom (Kingdom consciousness) (iv) Design empowerment programs for all members of the Church thereby assisting all to settle and make their contributions into the Kingdom. (v) Engage the youths the next generation in the assembly.
