THEME: THE LORD HAS NEED OF IT

TEXT: Luke 19:30-31
30 Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.


31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him..

MEMORY VERSE: But cursed be the deceiver, which hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth unto the LORD a corrupt thing: for I am a great King, saith the LORD of hosts, and my name is dreadful among the heathen. Malachi 1:14

MESSAGE:
James 1:17 says, "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the father of lights ..." Brethren, every gift you have, is from God. All your wealth and resources are from Him.

Whatever you have, is not because of your hard work or your intellect but because God gave you. Having that at the back of your mind, whatever God has given to you (money, talent, beauty, physical strength etc) whenever the need arises, you should use it (them) to serve God. You should not wait to be compelled before you bring out whatever God has given to you to serve Him. It is when you do this willing that He will give you more.

God through the text again; the master (Jesus) knowing that all that is in the earth belongs to Him sent two of his disciples to go and loose a colt that was tied somewhere and bring to Him and if the earthly owner asks them why they were loosing the colt, they should tell him that the master had need of it. Jesus Christ is the master of all, including the owner of the colt. Note; this colt is brand new, no man has ever sat on it yet the earthly owner allowed the master to make use of it. What is so dear to you that you cannot release it to God to use? In those days, that brand new colt is like brand new jeep today.
The owner must have bought it to make use of it but when the master requested it, he did not argue, note, he did not even know Jesus Christ facially, he just heard "The master has need of it" and he kept mute. How many of you will do that today? That thing so dear to you, God has need of it, release to God and be blessed.
 
PRAYER POINTS:
* Pray for a generous heart to give willingly to God.

* Pray that God will give you wisdom to know that what you have is not your own.

AMEND YOUR WAYS:
If you are not born again you must do something as a matter of urgency. He that commits sin is of the devil (1 John 3:8).
If you are into lying, cheating, bitterness, keeping malice, pride, manifesting anger, quarreling, unforgiveness, hatred, envy, contention, strife, gossiping, taking or giving bribe, selfishness,
kidnapping. If you are into masturbation, fornication, adultery, prostitution, abortion, lesbianism, homosexuality, you need to repent.
Are you into idolatry, do you make or use charms, rituals, bow down to images, Are you into occultism?
Do you smoke cigarette, cocaine, heroine? Are you lusting, covetous, alcohol drinking, divorcee or into worldliness?, you must stop bleaching your body, or painting your lips, eyes, fixing attachments, weave-on, earrings (Gen 35:2-4)
Are you one of those that put on nude dresses, short skirts, transparent dresses to seduce
(A seducer is not a Christian) do you wear trouser as a woman?
Repent and give your life to Jesus Christ.

LET'S PRAY:
If you want to give your life to JESUS pray this short prayer with me:
Almighty God, I come unto you in the name of Jesus. Father I confess that I am a sinner. All my sins I confess to you. I am very sorry for all my sins.
Lord I promise you that from today I will never continue in them anymore.
I believe that Jesus Christ died and rose again on the third day for my justification. Almighty God, use the blood of Jesus to wash my sins away. Lord Jesus, come into my heart, be my Lord and Personal Savior.
I surrender my life to you.
Cancel my name from the book of death and give me grace to make Heaven. AMEN!
