1A Boanerges - Evang. Ernest Uzoho 1

The speaker thanks God and prays for the word to have an impact on listeners. He talks about the Sons of Thunder and their fiery nature. He mentions the Bonarges Conference and the importance of having a strong word within oneself. He discusses the challenges faced in Nigeria and Africa, including the denial of the story of Adam and Eve and the return of Jesus. He emphasizes the power of the Word of God and how it is necessary for miracles and success in life. He urges listeners to speak the Word and plant it in their endeavors. He concludes by highlighting the significance of the Word being with God and its power in our lives. The Father, I thank you today as we come in your presence to declare this word that will become incarnate. I pray that this word may have entrance, and that it may dwell, and it may live, and it may not be transient, but that it may find abode in everyone that listens to me today. Lord Jesus Christ, you that became the living Incarnate, live among your people. And when you live among your people, you'll become like the mighty fortress in our being, with healing and deliverance. I give you all the glory. In Jesus' name. God bless you. You may be seated. When you hear Bonaduce, Bonaduce means Sons of Thunder. And we use Bonaduce Conference to bring all the Sons of Mirren together every quarter, and with permanent aid in the Heroes' Convention in Arkansas, we'll bring in people from other parts of Africa. Jesus looked at James and John, and he called them Bonaduce. Now, what's the reason why he called them Bonaduce? Because they are the only people in the history of the disciples that frightened him. It was in the time of Jesus, and Jesus saw James and John. He was about to go through Samaria, and the Samaritans said, no, you will not pass through our city. And James and John had seen Jesus work miracles. But all the miracles Jesus worked, they didn't see Jesus make fire and fall down from heaven. When Jesus died, he never caused fire to fall down from heaven. But James and his brother John, they came to Jesus and said, who are these nasty, silly Samaritans? They said, Lord, permit us to cause some fire from heaven and consume the whole city. They meant business. Jesus looked at them and was frightened. And he said to them, boys, you don't know the spirit you possess. Now, Jesus was actually saying that if you say it, it will happen. Tell somebody by your side, if you say it, it will happen. He rebuked them. Jesus was frightened because those boys could have destroyed the whole city. He turned to them and called them the Bonarges. You are as fiery as the thunder. So in the Bonarges Conference, we come to make men fiery. And the theme of this session, of this quarter, is the world became incalculate. Because we have Bonarges World Conference, Bonarges Prayer Conference, Bonarges Wisdom Conference, Bonarges Life Conference. Depending on the focus, I will give it the caption. And we are going to celebrate the world today. We are in a season when if you do not have a substantive world in you, you will not survive. During the time of election, we made it clear to people that Nigerians, brace up for hard times. Difficult times are coming. And a few Nigerians listened to that word. Now we have come to a point, not only in Nigeria, but in Africa, when the things we know to be normal are becoming abnormal. The things we believe in are being threatened. The things we hang our faith in, our partners of faith, are denying the faith every day. And one of the bigger situations I encounter was sometime last week month, when the bishops of, I don't want to call it church, but it's a mother church, said that the story of Adam and Eve were not real. And some of them said Jesus is not coming back again. And all these things began to trouble our mind. That if the people that know better began to say these things, what is our hope? It becomes very imperative that we should then brace up for it. Amen. Alleluia. Open your Bible to John chapter 2. John chapter 1. We are going to read John chapter 1. I'm just preparing the ground for apostasy. It's fine, it's not to do with Jesus. I'm just preparing the ground for apostasy. Alleluia. Come over here on our feet, please. Oh, you can't see that. You can't see that. But we are going to read John chapter 1 from verse number 1 to verse number 14. One to go. In the beginning was the world, and the world was with God, and the world was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him nothing was made that was made. In him was light, and the light was the night of man. And the light shone in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. This man sent for a witness, to bear witness to the light that was bringing him by faith. He was not that light, but was sent to bear witness of that light, that was the true light with this light to everyone coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made through him. And the world did not know him. He came to his own, and his own did not receive him. But as soon as he received him, then he gave the right to become the children of God, because he believed in his name. For we are born not of blood, nor the will of the flesh, nor the will of man, but of God, and of the one who dwells among us, and with him. Hell is glory, but the glory of the only begotten Son of God. Hallelujah. Somebody shout Hallelujah. I want to say a little thing in a very brief way, and very briefly, once you will catch revelation from that. God has never created anything without the Word. Any ministry you go to, any ministry you go to, and miracles happen as it happens in our crusades and our meetings, and there is no accompanying Word of God. What you just encountered is magic. Because magic produces the miracles of producing signs without the Word. The Word is the instrument by which God creates. The Word is the instrument by which God nourishes the flesh of the earth. The Word cannot be old enough. The Word can never become obsolete. The Word can never become outdated. Any Christian that feeds from an altar, where there is no tangible Word, will grow into chaff. The Word removes materialism from you and the Word from you. It is the Word that removes the Word from you. The Word wants to remove the Word from you, and the Word removes the Word from you. In the beginning was the Word. Every angel, every man of God, servant of God, or person of God wants to undertake. Undertake it at the premises of the Word. Speak the Word to it. Do you want to have children? You are just getting married or you are about to get married? From that beginning, speak the Word to your womb. There is no power on earth except human beings have spoken words upon material things. If you go to the house of a native doctor and he prepares chaff for you, the chaff will be ineffective until he says certain things on that thing. He will call your name and tell it what it will do. So that Word speaks to that matter, makes it a living material, a living matter. In every endeavor you want to begin, you want to begin your marriage life, you want to begin your education, let it be at the premises of the Word. Speak the Word, plant the Word around it. The time the Word is planted is not the time it grows. It is not the time it germinates. Like every tree, everything you saw, when you saw that it went for it to germinate, our confusion is that when we saw, we do not wait for it to germinate. But if you begin from the beginning to sow the Word, to plant reality, you will reap the incarnation of what you sowed. In the beginning, before all times, I read from Amplified, was the Word the Christ, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself. Nothing on earth, in heaven, in the universe can be as strong as God. Every man has a quantity of God in him, and that quantity of God you have is the living Word of God in your mouth. When you close your mouth, you close your destiny. When you do not use the power of your tongue, you will live like someone that has spotted somebody in the world. The earth will come in and have prevailing wars to rule it. Amen.
