FIRST POST ON OFEURA GROUP 3.4.23
Thanks for this group. It will help us all. Ofolikpa has become Ofeura. God has His eyes on us
In His sight, we are like people who have been living in great darkness (under demonic oppression, and without understanding).
So this prophecy has been hanging on us for years.
Matthew 4:13 And leaving Nazareth, He went and dwelt in Capernaum by the sea, in the country of Zebulun and Naphtali–
Matthew 4:14 That what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be brought to pass:
Matthew 4:15 The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, in the way to the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles [of the peoples who are not of Israel]–[Isa. 9:1-2.]
Matthew 4:16 The people who sat (dwelt enveloped) in darkness have seen a great Light, and for those who sat in the land and shadow of death Light has dawned.
Matthew 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, crying out, Repent (change your mind for the better, heartily amend your ways, with abhorrence of your past sins), for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
HOW DID LIGHT COME TO Capernaum by the sea, in the country of Zebulun and Naphtali–?
Answer: It was that Jesus moved and lived in those places (Mt. 4:13).
Has Jesus not come to live in Ofolikpa? Can you not see Him living His life in me (Gal. 2:20), in Idoko, in Noah Omaye, in Jacobs Alaji, in a host of young boys and girls from Ofolikpa?
Some ignorantly think that money is the main blessing. Wrong! The quarrel with Man in the Garden was not about money or food. Sin was the cause of the quarrel. Sin is still the problem, not food, drink, wears or bank accounts. The greatest thing God has done for me is that He has become my friend as He was the friend of the first Man - visiting him in the cool hours of the day.
What is happening in Ofeura is *Jesus* *revolution. Jesus told us to start calling the place Ofeura from 1995 (when I packed home briefly). I had to see Ufana, our late Village Head. Even he was excited about it. Everything Jesus is called GOOD NEWS.*
*WHAT SHOULD WE DO?*
1. *Believe it.* Heb 11:6
2. *Call ourselves Ofeura people* . That is the name He wants us to bear.
3. *Repent* . Matthew 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, crying out, Repent (change your mind for the better, heartily amend your ways, with abhorrence of your past sins), for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
4. *Become His followers.* Matthew 4:18 As He was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He noticed two brothers, Simon who is called Peter and Andrew his brother, throwing a dragnet into the sea, for they were fishermen.
Matthew 4:19 And He said to them, Come after Me [as disciples–letting Me be your Guide], follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men!
Matthew 4:20 At once they left their nets and became His disciples [sided with His party and followed Him].
Matthew 4:21 And going on further from there He noticed two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John, in the boat with their father Zebedee, mending their nets and putting them right; and He called them.
Matthew 4:22 At once they left the boat and their father and joined Jesus as disciples [sided with His party and followed Him].
Am I preaching Religion? No! Many times No. I'm preaching development. I'm preaching peace for our Community.
Drop every sin - hatred, lying, anyhow sex, taking somebody's land, stealing anybody's palm fruits, worshipping those lifeless idols, etc. Peter dropped his fishing profession, Luke dropped his medical profession, Alex Oguh dropped architectural profession and Jacobs Alaji dropped his legal profession. Bow your hat for Jesus. Drop all and asked the way Paul asked, The Acts 9:5 And Saul said, Who are You, Lord? And He said, I am Jesus, Whom you are persecuting. It is dangerous and it will turn out badly for you to keep kicking against the goad [to offer vain and perilous resistance].
The Acts 9:6 Trembling and astonished he asked, Lord, what do You desire me to do? The Lord said to him, But arise and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.
