You cannot lick salt with a straight face, and metaphorically, this lets us see as believers that we cannot be neutral. We must not be ashamed of what we believe and standing for everything. (1 Peter 3:15)

This month, we'll first be revisiting some biblical precepts to ensure that every believer is “where they ought to be” before we focus on going out. It's a form of spiritual home training that ensures you are well brought up in your home and in Christ. For example, without character, you can lose the success you have in a minute. (Matthew 5:13)

To wrap up the Sunday Love Code teaching series, we had the privilege of having our Apostle pst_iren teach on Love out of Season.

In our midweek service yesterday, Pastor Laju Iren taught on Love, Money, and Power

“If the salt that is to add taste to the world loses its savour, who then will restore it?” (Matthew 5:13) He explained that one major issue Jesus came to address is a religious mindset without true repentance and a sincere heart for God (Matthew 5:24; 1 John 4:20). We learned that love is a filtration system that makes our prayers clear to heaven (1 Corinthians 13:1–4). Hence emphasizing the need for love as a fruit of the Spirit. Here are key truths we learned about God's kind of love from today's sermon:

ENDLESS LIFE FESTIVAL - OGUN STATE | MORNING SESSION

ENDLESS LIFE FESTIVAL - OGUN STATE

Apostle started by first addressing the fact that Christianity is not only about believing, but it is about becoming.

Begin with the consciousness of the gospel: The gospel is preached to sinners and taught to believers. (Romans 5:17).

He began by explaining that there are words in Scripture that appear repeatedly, and when they do, they demand our attention. One such word is “better.”

Apostle reminded us that life is not powered by hard work alone. There is mercy, and there is divine advantage. There is help that does not come from this world.

We demonstrate Christianity as only being bothered about a God that helps us win in life. This is because most people don't understand what consecration means

No guaranteed strategy makes a year better, except if the Lord wills. We may plan to do this or that, but it is not in a man's power to direct his own steps. Our lives are ultimately guided and sustained by God.

Welcome to 2026 — our year of EBENEZER

We were reminded that Jesus actually cares about who we think He is. (Luke 21:27, Matthew 16:13–17)

To kick off our Seven Days of Christmas series at midweek service yesterday, Apostle taught powerfully.

In today's service we received a stirring word from our Apostle, @pst_iren, on the topic; ‘Faith is the Language of Revival.'

God's unstoppable love is seen in our daily lives and ministries (Gen 18:18-19). Family is God's strategy for His unstoppable move. The first time God ever spoke to a human, it was about a family (Gen 1:28).

THE PROVIDENCE AND SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD.Sovereignty is who God is and what He does, while providence is God's intentional, personal involvement in the details of our lives. These two truths form the foundation for creative miracles.Apostle showed us through scripture how before any need arises, God has already gone ahead to provide.Just like Abraham, while he climbed the mountain in obedience, the ram was already climbing too. (Genesis 22:13)In the will of God, we can never be stranded, because every instruction already carries its provision.Here are key points to note from the sermon:

The Unstoppable Move Of God IIWe as Christians are sent to shine in dark places, take territories for Christ, turn toxic spaces into worship, and carry His fragrance wherever He sends us.Revival does not happen by playing it safe. If God sends you, GO!History shows God superimposing His Image on culture by reclaiming what were once names for pagan gods.The church of Christ is a locomotive church, and we are called to boldly take what the enemy uses, elevate it for Christ, and advance without fear of consequences.Build, create, influence, and use every platform for the kingdom of God, bringing all things into obedience to Christ.The consecrations that will preserve us to be able to shine as light1. Have a church.Find a good church to belong to (Galatians 6:1-2)2. Learn to protect your priority.As believers, we believe that success must not be at all costs (Matthew 6:33)3. Embrace your supernatural edge.Don't be ashamed to identify as a Christian; it will save you a lot of trouble (Luke 2:49)4. Contend.Seek for God's influence to grow on your account (Jude 1:3)

Raising an Unstoppable Prayer MovementA word study on Israel:The name Israel is formed from two words — Sara and El.Sara means to contend, to wrestle, to fight.Hence, Yisrael means he who strives, contends, or wrestles with God.Israel became the name of an entire people because of one man's encounter with God.In the New Testament, believers are called the Israel of God.Jesus is the real Israel — the true Son of God.Because of Him, we have become the Israel of God (Galatians 6:16).What makes us the Israel of God?1. Faith in Jesus2. A willingness to see the will of God manifest in your generationThe free will of man confirms the sovereignty of God.God is in ultimate control, yet He invites us into partnership.We can cooperate with the Holy Spirit or hinder Him, and the sovereign God honours our choices.Many times, God makes things subject to our readiness.The sovereign God wants us to choose, and it requires determination and consistency. (Psalm 2:8).

Sovereignty is who God is and what He does, while providence is God's intentional, personal involvement in the details of our lives. These two truths form the foundation for creative miracles.

Build, create, influence, and use every platform for the kingdom of God, bringing all things into obedience to Christ.

The Unstoppable Move of GodGod is sovereign; He reserves the absolute right and unrivaled power to do all that he wills, exactly as he wills, and nothing can successfully oppose him.God is actually in control.When Jesus says yes, nobody can say no.God's providence is all-encompassing: it's God's continuous and active involvement in sustaining, guiding, and solving all things towards the fulfillment of his purposeSovereignty is who God is; providence is what he does.Sovereignty is God's position, and providence is God's supervision.The sovereignty of God means God cannot be stopped, be surprised, be defeated, be limited… his will is final.God is much aware of our weaknesses and inadequacies. The mistake of Jonah by reason of providence became the most important thing he ever did. Even in his weakness, God was still working in his error.The greatest highlight of Jonah's ministry was from the most vulnerable point of his life.

God is actually in control. When Jesus says yes, nobody can say no. God's providence is all-encompassing: it's God's continuous and active involvement in sustaining, guiding, and solving all things towards the fulfillment of his purpose

Jesus Called Me Broke With our anchor scripture being Rev. 3:20, a powerful reminder that not every kind of growth is beneficial (after all, cancer is a form of growth too). A church with Jesus is complete, no matter the number.

The Saved & Mammon – Faithfulness in Earthly Wealth.We were reminded that faith doesn't excuse irresponsibility. God calls us to be both spiritual and sensible — prayerful yet productive.If you keep holding on to God's Word without seeing results, you may be violating His principles. Grace doesn't cancel diligence; it empowers it.Here are some key points from the sermon:

Master money, don't serve it. (Proverbs 21:20) Plan for the future, save diligently, and resist the urge to show off. Having money doesn't mean you can afford everything. Choose to be rich, not look rich.

Leave & Cleave - Remaining One Flesh With Your Spouse

We explored faith and prudence in the aspect of marriage. It was emphasised that both our spirit and mind must be actively engaged for us to make major life decisions. Here are some key points from the sermon;
