BY: PASTOR BAMIDELE STURDIVANT

If you know beyond the shadow of a doubt that this is the week and season when the Almighty God is going to speak directly to you, if you believe that shout the loudest Hallelujah. Let us pray, my Father and my God we thank You because we know that by Your word speaking, healing can take place, while we are in this place today, say a word that will catapult Your people from history to destiny and anything that try to truncate their destiny destroy by fire, thank You my Father, glory be to Your Holy name. In Jesus mighty name we have prayed.

The Almighty God is a God of purpose, everything and everyone He has allowed to come into existence has reason and season for being and fulfilling their assignments. Ecclesiastes 3:1 Nothing is a mistake or misstep in your life, you are neither an accident nor a mistake but an assignment. Isaiah 46:9-11. Every good thing that God has spoken concerning you shall come to past. Jeremiah 1:5. Revelation 1:8 God has concluded your purpose before creating you, tell your neighbor "My tomorrow will be alright" Romans 8:28. God has appropriate time for the thing He allows to come forth, you are the solution to the problems of the world. God will use you as a form of a sling to deal with every Goliath that is hindering the move of the kingdom of God. You are a solution to a world that is desperate for a Savior.

I AM THE VINE
I AM - God is giving the idea of His identity and what you can expect Him to be for you
Jehovah Sharmmah - Present help in trouble.
Jehovah Ropheka - God who heals.
John 6:35 I am the bread of life. God can be whatever you need at any given moment for you. Matthew 6:31-33. The I AM will take care of your concern in Jesus name.
John 10:9 I AM THE DOOR. Acts 12:5-10 As you go forward in the name of the Lord, shut doors shall be opened in Jesus name.
I AM THE RESURRECTION - Our hope is beyond this world, we will make heaven and go with as many people as possible. John 11:25, 1 Corinthians 15:19
BENEFITS OF CONNECTION John 15:5
1. We are PARTNERS, coming into agreement with God and having the ability to do what He can do.
2. We have a PRIVILEGE John 15:1 A vine dresser takes care of what is planted around him and prevents the plant from growing wild. Connection to divine attracts protection. The message i heard from pastor Adeboye raised the dead when i laid hands on him during my ministration, it happened because of my connection with him.
3. PRIORITY - abiding in Him will bring productivity.
4.PLACEMENT IN HIM
5. PRODUCTIVE - If you are connected to Him success will be your portion.
