Revelation 19:10 ( And I fell at his feet to worship him, and he said unto me, See thou do it not; I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God, for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy)
The testimony of Jesus Christ is the spirit behind every prophecy and the voice spoken by any prophet.
Had the angel not had this testimony, he would have allowed John to bow for him, and had John not had the testimony, he would have insisted on bowing to the angel.
No amount of prophecy is valid if the testimony of what Christ has done and what he will do is not involved..
Souls are eager to know what the Lord has done to bring their freedom, but instead, it’s what Satan can do and will do that we are busy feeding them. This puts the fear of Satan in them more than the fear of God; they would rather disobey God than to discomfort the devil.
Instead of proclaiming what the Lord has done amidst the heathen, we are trying to tell them the secret of their life, what they ate and what they drank, the color of their underwear, which makes them focus on self and remove their mind from Jesus Christ.
This is because most people who want to speak on God’s behalf don’t have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
I heard a prophet ministering on a television, calling men to his monthly program, then the anchor of the program said, How do you tell people about Jesus Christ?
The answer to that question amazes me, because the man said, people don’t like to hear about Jesus Christ again, all they want is a solution to their problems.
How then do you bring men to Christ if you can’t speak about him to people? It’s in his name we gather, and all the worship of men is centered on him alone.
It’s unto him all the gathering of the people shall be, without him nothing makes sense in any gathering.
If you don’t have the testimony of Jesus, why do you gather souls to your program,?
In the name of whom and what did you gather the crowd?
What kind of spirit did you receive if you don’t have the testimony of Jesus Christ?
A prophet who doesn’t have this testimony will rather preach themselves and their financial achievements to people to woo them.
The number of cars and private jets they have; many are even introducing men to the depths of Satan rather than introducing Jesus Christ to their crowd.
Testimony of Jesus Christ is what build the church that the gates of hell would not be able to prevail.
It’s unfortunate that many so-called Christians have been overcome by the gates of hell, for their faith is not rooted in the solid rock of Christ.
You don’t have to visit a prophet or a prophetess if you have this testimony, for all things needed in life are hidden in this testimony.
If you know what the Lord has done, you won’t desire any other God than the one who paid the price for your salvation and set you free from the clutches of the devil.
What he did was to enter the heart of the earth to receive the key of death and hell from the devil and set the captives that had been there since the beginning of ages to transfer them to the paradise above.
I was preaching to some group of boys who were making a mockery of Jesus Christ, that if they had known what he had done for them, they wouldn’t have made him the object of their mockery.
All humans are heading for destruction, and God came in the name of Jesus Christ, who appeared as a man to pay the price of our sin that would have led me and you to eternal damnation.
He paid with his blood for it for it is his blood that has the capacity, for all the blood of men is tainted with sin.
He was mocked and rejected by the people, but he went straight to the Cross, not minding the hatred man had toward him; his love for man put him on the Cross to save humanity from the dungeon of destruction which Satan prepared for their souls.
By the time I finished preaching, all of them kept quiet and started asking questions about what I said.
If you tell people how Christ spoiled principalities and powers to make a public show of them, they wouldn’t have obeyed Satan to disobey God.
If you tell sinners how Jesus Christ relocated man back to his lost position, he would have known that he is higher than the devil if he is in Christ.
Instead of us attracting men to our program with the genuine message of salvation, we eulogize Satan and his work by telling them what the witches and wizards are doing in the night.
The hour of their activities and how they dwell in a forest or tree to destroy man.
Instead of them to rely on the work of Calvary, they started diverting their prayer to fight the battle the Lord has already finished on the Cross.
Most Christians have lost their freedom in this process; they fear everything that comes their way. If they see cockroaches in their house, they will lose their sleep for the day.
It even affects their relationship with fellow human beings, because they don’t know who carries Satan’s unction.
Most of these days, prophets don’t have the spirit of prophecy, for they belong to Baal.
The day the demons begin to declare what the Lord has done will be the day Satan will tear him to pieces, because they know that it’s the truth that leads to total freedom, “you will know the truth and the truth will set you free”.
They won’t let them know, so they will remain in bondage till they die.
It’s only a few who have this testimony that can speak on his behalf.
No wonder many ministers only know what money can do but not what Christ has done; they have that testimony given to them by the prince of the world to lure many souls into his stronghold.
When God chose men, he put his word in their mouths to speak on his behalf, what he did to align them with their purpose and their destiny.
They become his oracles who can speak his mind, a self-proclaimed prophet who doesn’t have his testimony is not worthy to be a prophet of God, but that of Baal; the testimony of Jesus Christ is what differentiates between God’s prophet and that of Baal.
Prayer: Father Lord open spiritual understanding of your people so they may know you and the power of your resurrection and the fellowship of your suffering, in Jesus’ name amen
