Covid-19 Series : The Earth Is The Lord's And The Fullness Thereof


Introduction :

 Good day to you dear reader. God touched my heart to share this very seasoned message with his people in a time like this (Covid-19). God wants us to have an understanding about the world, who owns the world and who controls it. He wants us to understand the dynamics of world powers and structures therefore inspired me to put this piece together to enlighten and educate the masses. One thing you should understand first and foremost is that God allows both good and evil to occur for good reasons. God always uses the devices of Satan who is limited to unveil his limitless power and glory. It's just like watching your child take certain wrong steps to a point but there is a limit you can contain or tolerate his evil ways and at the right time you reprove, rebuke, punish or chastise that child and bring him to the right path. God knows we live here with Satan but those that know their God will excel in everything. Do not panic in these times of lockdown and economic strangulation but rather seek God and you and all God has given you will be preserved. Read through this piece carefully and understand your rights, dominance and control as a child of God on this earth that belongs to you. Have a read.

 EXPOSITION

 Scripture Reading :

 Psalm 24:1 The Earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof, the world and they that dwell therein.

Mathew 4:8-9 
8. Again, the devil taketh him into an exceeding high mountain, and showeth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them.
9. And saith unto him, all these things I will give thee if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

Lessons :

1. The Earth still belongs to God, the people, creatures, plants, seas, waters, forests, deserts, vegetations, everything in the earth belongs to God. (Psalm 24:1). Everything that makes the earth full and complete belongs to God not the devil. You can say nature belongs to God. It's important we take notice of this crucial fact. So the school of thought that says the world belongs to Satan is not true at all. Infact in Psalm 37 God promises the righteous that they will inherit the earth and dwell in it with abundance of peace. The righteous shall possess the fatness of the Earth and eat the fruits thereof. Kindly take note of this exposition.

2. The Kingdoms, governments, institutions of the Earth and it's glory is what belongs to Satan, so Satan rules the world through them especially those established by his own people but the earth itself belongs to God. So it means it is the world power that belongs to Satan now because man handed it over to him (Mathew 4:8).

3. Satan has more command over kingdoms and world institutions more than the children of God but the righteous has more command over natural elements like the seas, waters, rain, sun, nature generally because it still belongs to our father, God. That is why in the face of Satan, Elijah could lock heavens, keep the keys in his pocket that it should not rain and Satan could not do anything about it. Man still has power over the natural elements than Satan but Satan has more power over artificial elements than man. This is why Moses could part the sea into two, Elisha could part river Jordan into two, Joshua could command the sun to stand still and it obeyed etc.

4. God still has the power to prophesy over the happenings in world institutions and kingdoms and even intervene in their affairs if the children of God can pray. Satan is in charge but God can move mightily to change things in human institutions but only by prayer. God still has the power to cripple, destroy and overthrow evil governments and kingdoms if the children of God can pray otherwise Satan will rule. God said to Jeremiah in Jeremiah 1:10, it reads, "See I have this day set thee over the nations and the kingdoms to root out and to pull down, and to destroy and throw down, to build and to plant." You see, God didn't say I have given you the nations and Kingdoms because he knows it belongs to Satan but rather God told him, I have given you power over them to root out, destroy it, pull down, throw down, build and plant. You must understand that there is a difference between ownership and control. Shareholders own a company but the board of directors and management control it. Satan owns governments and kingdoms but God has given the children of God the power to control them if we want to with prayer and righteousness.The only thing that undermines the authority and power of satanic establishments is prayer and righteousness by the elect of God.

5. The only thing that Satan needs from men is for us to worship him like we worship God too (Mathew 4:9). In the aforementioned scripture Satan dared the son of God to worship him and we are also sons of God so what do you think Satan wants from us? Worship ofcourse. That is why those who have agreed to worship Satan he blesses them mightily on this Earth but their souls belong to him. So do not fret yourself or be envious of evildoers who belong to secret societies and occultic powers because they display wealth. True wealth comes from God and his blessings are permanent. The evil ones, very soon you will not see them anymore, they will burn with the master in hell in the endtime.
Satan has not learnt his lessons after he was defeated in heaven for wanting to be the same as God, he still wants men to worship him here on Earth which sadly some people do and have lost their souls but once they are still alive we can still interceed for them to be saved. Intercession is a spiritual mandate for every believer.

 Conclusion :

 What Jesus came to do is to reconnect us to God and give to us power to become sons of God. Jesus came to reconcile us back to God so that if you accept Jesus you are no longer a sinner but you book a place for yourself in heaven but you must work the works of God.  Receiving an appointment is different from the job you must do. Receiving Jesus comes with a responsibility to live and work for God. So we must all work for God not just pastors and prophets. We must all live righteously, pray for others, love God and your neighbour and save souls into God's kingdom. Don't be afraid God still loves you. Turn back to Him and repent of your sins and you will be saved.

My name is Emmanuel Quayson, a fellow servant, preacher and writer in God's vineyard. God bless you as you read.

Veep : Demons And Principalities In Public Sector

Image
I think Ghanaians now have the economic answers that they are looking for from the Vice President of Ghana, Dr. Mahmoud Bawumia as to why the economy is in a very bad state at the moment. The astute politician has attributed his failure to manage the economy properly to demons and principalities in the country.  To him, it is only when you get to the public service that you will realise that you are not only dealing with flesh and blood but against demons and principalities as stated by Apostle Paul in Ephesians 6:12. He is however hopeful and positive that he is going to conquer these demons and principalities to put the economy back on track. Some of us are wondering why it has taken him too long to come to this realisation when we have so many pastors in the country who fight against demons and principalities? If anything at all Bishop Obinim, Reverend Obofuor or NPP's own Owusu Bempah could be giving anointing oil to anoint the whole of Ghana in 30 days. He said this in one of ...

KENNEDY AGYAPONG CAN BEAT MAHAMA HANDS DOWN

Image
The late Christian Atsu was asked which defender made his balling days terrible? He said Harrison Afful. The guy is not really much recognized and spoken much of but he can trouble strikers. He is very hard to dribble and he disorganises game plans of opponents. You see, many have not paid attention to him but technical coaches know his worth.  This is exactly what Kennedy Agyapong will do to Mahama if he is given the nod. He will really disorganize the game plan of NDC and dilute all their messages with water. This is what NPP needs if they want to retain power not that we want them in power though. They have messed up enough. I am just making my objective submissions regardless of politics.  Dr. Bawumia is very intelligent but he should still be a vice president under Kennedy Agyapong if they really want to trouble NDC. The only NPP man that can match Mahama boot for boot is Kennedy Agyapong. Akufo-Addo won not because he was tough, Ghanaians were just fed up with the "corru...
