TOPIC:

*WHAT DOES GOD DO?*

CREATION 

- God alone can destroy spirits 

Matthew 10:28

Luke 12:4-5

When we face persecution, and possibly even death for our faith, we need to remember that Jesus does not ask his disciples to do anything he has not done himself.

He endured the scorn of the Pharisees (Matthew 9:34) and was killed for his work - His disciples should expect the same treatment according to Matthew 10:24-25, for death is the logical outcome of their being Jesus’ followers. But they should also take courage from the fact that God is in control and will ultimately vindicate his own. (Matthew 10:26-31)

The creation of the earth and the heavens

 *01/06/2025* *THANKSGIVING SERVICE* TOPIC: *WHAT DOES GOD DO?* INTRODUCTION  - The creation of the earth and the near heavens  Genesis 1:1-31 The rest of the chapter is then seen as an expression on the summary of Genesis 1:1. However, it is also possible that those words outline the first step in creation, with the words *in the beginning* being equivalent to "first". The idea then would be that the first thing God did was to create the raw shell ( heaven and earth) and then for six days he filled that shell with content. He did not create the whole universe as a finished product in one grand gesture, but worked to create it. This second view fits with the description of the earth as *formless and empty* and of darkness over the surface of the deep.

We oppose the saints of God

 *27/10/2024* *ANOINTING HEALING AND COMMUNION SERVICE* TOPIC: *PRAYER* Text: Genesis 4:26 Philippians 4:6-7 *HINDRANCES TO PRAYERS BEING HEARD OR ANSWERED  5. We oppose the saints of God  Psalms 18:40-41 Micah 3:2-4 God gives David strength to complete the battle against his enemies. God Himself is a Warrior  (Exodus 15:3) and He outfits His servants for battle. Apparently in the extremes of battle, the enemies of David found no help from their gods, so they screamed aloud to David's God for deliverance. But God would not answer them. There is only one prayer from the wicked to which He gladly listens - the prayer of repentance.  Micah used an image of barbaric cannibalism to describe the horrendous actions of the leaders against the people. It was as if the leaders were eating the flesh from the people's bones. *©2024* *Ecumenican Church Nigeria ®* Instagram: *@ecumenicanchurch* WhatsApp/Telegram: *+2348052366039* Email: *johnifesanya@gmail.com* *www.johnifesa...
