THE EFFECTS OF AN ENCOUNTER WITH JESUS CHRIST. THE CASE OF THE WOMAN OF SAMARIA

The God of all Flesh

MESSAGE DELIVERED BY PASTOR HELEN OJEI 1️⃣ Book of Numbers 23:19 God is not a man. He does not lie. If He says something, He will do it. If He promises, He will keep it. That means when God speaks, it is sure. 2️⃣ Book of Jeremiah 32:27 God says, “I am the Lord, the God of all people. Is anything too hard for Me?” The answer is no. Nothing is too hard for God. Not sickness. Not delay. Not lack. Not broken situations. 3️⃣ Book of Genesis 26:22 Isaac kept digging wells. People fought him and took the wells he dug. But he did not stop. He kept digging until he reached a place called Rehoboth, a place of room, peace, and blessing. And God made space for him there. All these scriptures teach us that: Nothing is too difficult for God. God does not lie. God keeps His promises. God finishes what He starts. Everyone in these scriptures received what God promised. Even when it looked delayed. Even when people fought them. Even when it seemed hard. What This Means for You; If God has spoken over your life or you have read it from the scriptures: It will happen. It may take time. But it will happen. The Bible says that even if a vision takes time, it will surely come to pass. So do not give up. Keep Digging What do you need from God? Peace? Healing? Restoration? Provision? Start digging. But dig the right way: Pray. Believe. Obey. Trust God’s Word. Do not dig in fear. Do not dig in anger. Do not dig in doubt. Dig in faith. Do Not Be Moved People may talk. Situations may change. Challenges may come. But do not be moved by what you see. Be moved by what God said. Because if God said it, He will do it. And your Rehoboth; your place of peace and blessing is waiting.

THE EFFECTS OF AN ENCOUNTER WITH JESUS CHRIST. THE CASE OF THE WOMAN OF SAMARIA

BY PASTOR AMOS AKPAN Text Scripture John 4:1–42 This is the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well. Jesus Broke Barriers Jesus did something very surprising when He spoke to the Samaritan woman. 1. He broke the gender barrier In those days, men did not sit and talk alone with women in public. But Jesus did. 2. He broke the racial barrier Jews and Samaritans did not like each other. They avoided one another. But Jesus did not avoid her. 3. He broke the religious barrier A Rabbi (a teacher of the law) was not supposed to talk to someone people called a sinner or outcast. But Jesus spoke to her anyway. Jesus showed us that no rule made by people can stop God’s love. He came to save everyone. What Happened to the Woman? When she met Jesus, something changed inside her. 1. Her Shame Was Removed She used to go to the well when no one else was there. She felt ashamed. She did not want people to see her. But after meeting Jesus, she became bold. She ran into the city and told everyone about Him! An encounter with Jesus changes how we see ourselves. 2. Her Identity Changed People saw her as a sinner. But Jesus did not condemn her. Even though He knew everything about her past, He still accepted her. Because He accepted her, she opened her heart to Him. She asked for salvation and she received it. When we meet Jesus, we become children of God. The “living water” Jesus talked about is the Holy Spirit. He fills us and makes us new. 3. She Found True Satisfaction Before, she kept looking for happiness in the wrong places. But after meeting Jesus, she was satisfied inside. Jesus gave her spiritual fulfillment, something that lasts forever. 4. Her Purpose Changed She left her water pot at the well. That water pot was the reason she came there. But now she had found something greater. She ran to tell others about Jesus. Her priorities changed. Her life changed. She became a messenger of good news. True Worship She learned that worship is not about a place. It is not about a mountain or a building. True worship comes from the heart. From Outcast to Evangelist The woman who was once rejected became someone God used. Her story brought many people to Jesus. One transformed life can bring many more into the Kingdom of God. That is the power of an encounter with Christ. A Question for Us Coming to church is good. Listening to sermons is good. But what change has happened inside you? An encounter with Jesus must bring transformation. If we truly meet Him, our lives will not remain the same.

Life is Key by Pastor Charles Ojei

MESSAGE DELIVERED BY PASTOR CHARLES OJEI Text Scripture Genesis 37:18-20 Joseph (Genesis 37:18–20) Joseph’s brothers wanted to stop his dreams from coming true. They didn’t hate Joseph the person—they hated the great future his dreams showed. The Power of Being Alive As a child of God, the most important thing you need for your destiny is life. If you are alive, God can still make your dreams happen. Joseph became a great leader because he stayed alive. If he had died, he could never have become the prime minister. When a person dies, whatever they could have become ends there. But as long as there is life, there is hope. Even when life feels hard, your dreams can still come true because you are alive. Life on Earth vs. Life in Eternity Everything we achieve on earth is good, but it can never be bigger than what God has for us in eternity. If we only chase things in this world, we miss the real purpose God has for us. Job’s Story (Job 2:6) Job went through so much pain that his wife told him to give up. But Job refused because he knew something important: If I’m still alive, then God is not finished with me. And God proved him right—Job later received double blessings. Sometimes, hard times are just a test of our faith in God. Know Who You Are in God As God’s child, you must remember who you are. This helps you stand strong, even when life feels tough. There Is Hope for the Living Job 14:14 and Ecclesiastes 9:4 teach us that as long as we are alive, there is still a chance for change. God keeps us safe until the right time to fulfill His plan for us. God Is Our Helper (Psalm 124:2–8) Our help comes from God. Age doesn’t matter. People may laugh at you or look down on you, but they cannot stop your destiny. Never think you are finished. Never give up on yourself. As long as you are alive, God can still turn your story around.
