Divine Provision for Everyone’s Abundant Life
Minister: Pastor W.F. Kumuyi
Text: John 10:9-11
On this first day, be expectant while you are hearing the message because something good is going to happen in your life. I’m taking the message from John, Jesus that said, “I am the door..” He is the door to salvation, deliverance, healing and the Supernatural. If you want to enter a room or any other building, whether you are young, old, man or woman, you must use the door. Tonight, Jesus said by Him and Him alone can any man enter in. He said if any man enters, he will be saved, and find pasture (sustenance). Jesus said He has come to you in Lomé right now so that you can have life eternal, abundant and more abundantly. As you are here tonight, I’m sure without any doubt in my heart that you will have life, eternal life abundant life and the life of Christ in you. Abundant life is for all, everyone from every part of the world.
Jesus is the good Shepherd who gave Himself for us to have abundant life. The topic of the message tonight is a divine provision for everyone’s abundant life. Christ has made provision for everyone. I’m going to explain the message in three points and then we will pray.
Point 1: His Coming with Abundant Life
John 10:10; 1 Timothy 1:15
Why did Jesus come? Because there was a thief who had sucked everyone in and put them in a cage. When you put chickens in a cage, you want to keep them there so that when you need them, you kill and eat them. Jesus comes to give you abundant life which the world cannot give. Tonight, you will have the kind of life you have always wanted. After giving you the initial salvation and change of life as you come to Christ, you become a new creature, old things will pass away, and all things will become new. Old evil, suffering and death will pass away. You have an initial conversion and life is more abundant because He came so that you can live.
When you are sick, you go to the doctor, not when you are well. When you are deep in sin, under the bondage of sin is when you come to Christ. He came to save you. Some people say they will only come when they have knowledge because presently, they are ignorant. No, you are to come as you are: a sinner dirty, sinking into the well of sin. Apostle Paul called himself chief among sinners and yet, he was saved. Some people say they can’t come to Christ because they are the head of the gang, but you can come just as Apostle Paul came. You come, she comes, he comes, and salvation becomes everyone’s portion. Christ is here with abundant life and you will get it today.
Point 2: The Cage of The Abated Life
John 10:10; Proverbs 5:22; Revelation 18:2; Galatians 5:19-21
Why did He come? For example, the devil put everyone in a cage just as you put birds in a cage, and they cannot escape. This caging is to destroy lives and degrade us. Thank God Christ came and by this, everyone in the cage can escape from the bondage of evil powers. As you come tonight, every work the devil has done in your life the Lord will cancel.
The devil is connected with sorrow, death and suffering whereas, Jesus comes with life in abundance. Whomever the devils want to destroy he puts in a cage. When he is going to catch others, he locks the cage before he leaves so that all those, he has caught will remain in the cage till he comes back. He does not give the key to the cage to any of the demons to hold, he keeps it to himself. Only Jesus Christ can break open the cage and free you tonight.
When the devil takes a man or woman, the sinful, evil, dirty things in his/her life he uses them to make a rope with which he ties them and puts them in a cage. Only Christ can untie the cord. When He says Yes, no one can say No.
Anyone who does not come to Christ will not have the kind of life they ought to have. What do people do that makes them have aborted life? In this present age, not in the olden days: adultery, fornication, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, variance, wrath, strife, anger, fighting, violence, sedition, heresy, envy, murder, drunkenness, they which do these things shall not inherit the kingdom of God where abundant, abounding life dwells. Those who refuse to come to Christ dwell in aborted life but tonight, Christ will make a difference in your life.
Many years ago, I was in a school where there was no progress. There was no one passing out or making progress. My father took me out of the school and I was like Why? My friends were there, and the colourful crayons and watercolours were there to draw and paint. My father said if you don’t understand today, you will tomorrow. If I was not transferred from that school, I won’t be here today, you won’t know me and I won’t know you. Anyone who does not come to Christ will live an abated life, but if you come, He will save and transfer you out of darkness into His marvellous light. He is calling you to heal, prosperity, joyful and abundant life for everything, and life in its entirety.
Point 3: Call to The Abounding Life
Matthew 11:28-30; Mark 10:47-52; Galatians 1:15-16; 1 Thessalonians 5:24
When the world calls you, they call you into trouble and all kinds of challenges, when the devil calls you, he calls you to destruction. When a secret cult calls you, it is into bondage, but when Jesus calls you, it is into abundant life.
When Christ called the blind man, he received his sight. When He called the sinner, he received salvation, when the poor is called, he receives provisions to meet his needs. Christ saves, keeps and provides for all who answer His call.
Christ is the only Saviour, and Healer, thank God the Healer is in the house. He calls to all who are labouring and are heavy-laden. He calls to give all abundant life. He wants to take the yoke of the devil from your neck and set you free. All you need to do is confess and forsake your sin. He will give you eternal life and then you continue to learn of Christ. He will give you rest in your soul. He will also give you righteousness, redemption and restoration for your souls. His yoke is easy and His burden is light. He will take the yoke of the devil completely away from you. The Lord is calling you tonight. You will have a new life, healing and miracles.
He has provided salvation and is calling you to it. He is faithful and will do it. He is calling you to a better, and more productive life. You will leave the dwindling and aborted life of the past as He grants you a new and forgiven life. He was faithful yesterday, He is faithful today, and will be forever. He has called you and He will turn your life around; you will never be the same, a change and transformation will come.
Reject your sin and evil and embrace the Saviour, He will do it. Amen to you. Bow your head and talk to the Lord, confess and repent of all your sins and accept His new life.
