PRELUDE The statement by Apostle Edmonds Owhorode “God’s spirit wants to say something to my generation today. I hardly have this kind of messages. This is a message of warning or direction to my generation. It may be the last warning to my generation. I don’t have this kind of messages often. This message is to help those who don’t believe, to help those who are struggling to believe, to help those are confused so they can find themselves” MAIN MESSAGE In 1 Kings 19v1-3, we see Elijah fleeing from evil Jezebel; a woman who troubled the prophets of God, who did not have the fear of the Lord, whose spirit was inspired by evil spirit. So, Elijah flees and runs away. He experiences something that will teach everyone called of God, everyone created of God about the voice of God. In verse 4 -6, we see the frustration and the fear of the prophet. Elijah was a mighty and an anointed man but he says to God that he is done and asks God to take his life. Have you come to the place where you asked God to take your life? If you have, you are not the first. Have you come to the place you felt like to die better than to live? Every one of us face fears. Every single one of us face situations where the reality of God’s word in our hearts will be set before us and we have to make a perfect choice. Apostle Edmonds faced such a situation where he felt he was ineffective and could not help himself, not because of the work of the ministry, but because of his natural relationship with one whom he was supposed to help and he could not help. At that time, the life of God ascended that situation, that confusion that he faced. Are you going through situations right now that you felt it is better to die than to live? You are actually thinking this virus out there, if it reaches you soon, you would feel very very happy. But God is saying to you He makes His voice known through babes and suckling. He reveals His will where people never dreamed that it should be revealed. He picks and chooses and anoints whom people do not approve of. God can use your situation. God can give you a new story. No depression is as powerful as the force of the Most High in the life of those who believe. Don’t consider the situation around you. Consider Him who is faithful. Yes, we know people are affected; we have to for them, pray for the government. But what is God saying this moment? Elijah, an anointed prophet of God said to God that he is not greater than his fathers and asked God to kill him. He wasn’t the first. Moses had said it. Have you come to that place? The Lord has something to say to you. When you speak for God, you really do not honour man’s opinion and that makes you a target of the majority whose opinion is completely contrary to God’s will. When you become a target, your life becomes vulnerable. Don’t fear. The One who called you is faithful. He will never leave you nor forsake you. It is better to die believing and trusting and doing His work and standing for His name than to try to do something for you, to make ends meet for yourself etc. The faith that God has given to you is honorable; to believe Him to the last breath you have. Never be quick to take your life. If you really follow God, you will go through much stuff. But if you playing pranks, you can be peoples man . They will celebrate you because you are everyone’s voice. You speak for everybody. But if you are flowing with the spirit of God, you will be in trouble. But no trouble can be greater than the one who is master of all things. And He has got your back. He is watching over you. In verse 5, we see an angel visiting Elijah and providing him food. Sometimes God will make you rest because the journey He is planning for you next is very very long. Understand the voice of God. We are not speaking about the situation (this Covid-19) but we are speaking to the nations of the world and government of the world and all categories of people. This message is to warn all nations, individuals etc. In verse 9-12, we see that God wasn’t there in the earthquake or fire or, wind but in the still small voice. Lot of times you expect the voice of God to come from the one you approve. Understanding God is not determined by the approval of God. How many of you would think or imagine that Son of God will be born in a manger? What does God want to say? If our generation doesn’t follow these instructions, we are going to experience worse things. We are going to be extinct. Voice of God is expressed absolutely by the written word of God in the Holy Bible. Secondly, you can recognize the voice of God supernaturally. That is through the spoken word of called “Rhema” which also hails from the written word of God. There is third dimension of the voice of God which is “conscience”. So, voice of God can be recognized through three dimensions – (a) Written word of God, (b) Spoken word of God and (c) Revealed word of God. Revealed word of God is the one that bears witness with our spirit. (Romans 8v16). Every time you quiet your conscience down, you fight with God. Another thing to be understood is the concept of love. From birth to death, man has been misled by what ‘LOVE’ is? Many people die without knowing the true meaning of love. Love is not erotic feelings or sharing or caring or relationship or sweet words or gifts etc. 1 John 4v8 says God is love. Love is a person. Now, because you have understood the voice of God and the true concept of love, you are ready for this message: 1) Only love is the greatest nation. The world should understand this. Apostle Paul right said by the revelation of Holy Spirit 1 Cor 13v13; “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” No nation is greater than the other. No matter what history is behind your nation or how many presidents you have got or knowledge you have, love is the greatest. The knowledge of scientists, researchers, biologist and others in medical science are using medical science as businesses; this knowledge of good and evil is driving the world helter-skelter producing problems for themselves, inventing destructions for themselves, testing everything. Daniel said in the end times knowledge shall increase. It means that what Adam started will become worse. The rise of destruction comes when you feel inferior and insecure. The person who loves more is the greatest person. You must love your neighbor like yourself. You must love God with everything you have. From your spirit, soul and body you must love God with everything. 2) No nation is the wealthiest. Love is the wealthiest. The voice of God spoke to Apostle Edmonds that no nation is poor. The nation is not what you see; nation is what we make of it for all what you see is same around the world but to make of it makes the difference. So, if you made your nation to look beautiful does not mean that your nation is greater than the other. Any syllabus, any teaching, any instruction or book, knowledge, findings that classifies any human brain to be failure is a failure. Because they don’t know it, they give names. Any nation that puts another nation in a category below them is playing politics. Racism and slavery is in the mind of the people not in constitution. The answer to our problem is love. No nation is poor. Before we discovered electricity and other beautiful scientific discoveries that made our life beautiful, will you say the world is poor before we discovered it? The answer is no. It is knowledge away. So, because you do not know what is endowed in that nation; what you consider to be wealth is not there in that nation, you rate the nation according to its gross output. Until the terminologies like first world or third world, black or white complexion etc change, you will always have terrors in the world. It is not a prophecy. It is a statement generated by the act of the use of knowledge of good and evil. No nation is wealthiest. Apostle Edmonds thought wealthiest nations are those who are advanced in technologies and are developed. But Dr. Myles Munroe (Late) reshaped his thinking by answering to the question “Where is the wealthiest place on the planet?” saying “It is the graveyard”. Why graveyard? Because the ideas, potentials, dreams, visions that were never realized were buried in it. There is not a single nation wealthier than other nation. All these GDP, currency value surely makes a nation powerful but not wealthiest. Wealth is given to all nations. Because a nation feels they have power, they put other nations down. You will never stop experiencing like coronavirus, terrorism etc. What is the use of one hand in the body to be very strong and other parts of the body is sick and weak. This is a warning to this generation that no nation is wealthiest. Love is the wealthiest. 3) The virus is a product of man’s knowledge of good and evil. 4) Until our hate language stops, we may never experience the fullness of freedom Christ paid for us; God’s plan for us executed by His son Jesus Christ on our behalf. No matter how old a nation might be, until you stop that hate language, racial profiling, economical profiling etc. and respect each one for who they are, you will never experience the freedom.The greatest message to this generation is “Love is the greatest and Love is God.” 5) God wants you to change your educational sector. That’s where the brains are bred and cultured. The Lord wants you to re-look into your syllabuses and give the students the right knowledge to give value to the human beings. Change the educational sector to reflect these truths. Just imagine if a child knows that no nation is poor and when they grow up, they will have balanced mentality. Whatever is today, is manufactured and fabricated by God. 6) Entertainment industries, publishing and all the sectors in the economy must be fine-tuned towards valuing one another equally no matter what your output might be. Until love leads, hate will rule this world and the hearts of men. And you will never stop to see evil like coronavirus. You will see something worse than coronavirus. This is God’s word for you. Life is too beautiful to play games – who will win or lose etc. After getting the profit, how long will you live here? You made your nation to be like ‘Big Boss’ during this time. You increased the prices of the goods or you are even giving freely so that you can get all the attention to be titled as a ‘good nation’. You conceal things. You are only worsening the problem that is in the human race. If all you do this time is to pray then something is wrong with you, you are religiously blind. Put on your thinking cap and think. Your brain is given to you for performance. PRAYER May we see message of God’s love entering into government houses in the name of Jesus. May we see message of God’s love entering into schools, learning institutions. May we see message of God’s love crafted and held and honoured and followed in the homes. May we see God’s love leading the societies, and communities. May we see men turn away from wicked knowledge of evil and giving themselves to love. May we see terrorists putting down their arms and submitting to the greatest one – LOVE. May we see love leading the nations of the world and individuals. May we see Father’s love inspire scientists, inventors. May we see love lead in the name of Jesus Christ. (Amen).
