Sunday 21st June 2015 was another wonderful time in God’s presence at The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations, filled with inspirational testimonies, a thought-provoking message and a powerful demonstration of God’s power through the ministration of Morning Water.
EVANGELIST CHRIS
After the congregation were led in praise and worship, Evangelist Chris gave a message titled, ‘My Heart Is Heaven’, calling for a period of self-examination.
“If really you are a citizen of Heaven, why do you behave like others when trouble comes when your trouble is not like others,” he questioned the congregation, stating that people of God are meant to handle their situations differently to the people of the world.
“There will be trouble but as a Christian, your heart cannot be troubled because your heart belongs to Jesus,” he said. As a Christian, your body may get sick but your heart cannot fall sick because your heart belongs to Jesus! As a Christian, there may be confusion around you but there can never be confusion within you because your heart belongs to Jesus!”
Using Colossians 3:1-11 as a proof text, he insisted that Christianity is a relationship, not a religion, measured not by outward church attendance or engaging in Christian services but rather in the purity of one’s heart.
“The great thing that God looks at and requires is the heart,” he emphasised. “If that be far from Him, it is not a reasonable service and therefore not an acceptable one. It is the sacrifice of fools. Hypocrisy, no matter how cleverly managed, cannot be hidden from Jesus. If you are merely pretending, Jesus knows.”
He went on, using some practical examples, to explain how answers to prayer will come only when our lifestyle begins to reflect the One we are praying to. “Communion with Christ springs from union with Christ. The Word dominating you is the Christ you are calling,” he said, adding that it’s not the noise we make but the life we live that brings the results to our petitions in God’s time and way.
He concluded by stating that as citizens of Heaven, nothing should separate Christians from the love of God. “An effort to separate us from the love of God with affliction strengthens our desire for God. An effort to separate us from the love of God by death sends us to our home because here, we are in the market. An effort to separate us from the love of God through blackmail and name-calling makes our name known all over the world for the purpose we are living for.”
After the message, there were several powerful testimonies of God’s power at work in the lives of His people, especially through the ministration of the Morning Water:
