In this year there were many assistants who fell. Everyone was warned and no one can say that he was not advised. They fell down because they did not give ears to the voice of the Holy Spirit.
You lack nothing in the Church, everything is done for you to remain firm and strong in the faith. There is the message of Bishop Macedo, there are the groups of the Church, Godllywood for women and Intellimen for men. There are Bishops, Pastors, men of God with enough spiritual experiences separated to help the assistants. Everything is done to preserve you in the faith. All of us have received the care of the Holy Spirit, not only the assistants, but also Bishops, pastors, wives and the auxiliaries. We all have been taken care by the Holy Spirit. He has taken care of us as souls.
“Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,”
Hebrews 12:1
The Holy Spirit has taught us to remove all the heaviness from within us that has prevented us from bearing fruit. This heaviness can be accusation of the devil, sadness, grudge, hatred, evil eyes, bad conscience, pride, doubts, etc.
An assistant was carrying the sadness and disappointment of being abandoned by her husband over another woman. Her husband had left her, but not the Lord Jesus. It is necessary to keep moving forward and get rid of the sadness she’s been keeping inside.
The Spirit of Faith encourages us to look straight to the promises of God, even if everything is against us. But the Word of God does not fail.
Which heaviness has blocked your spiritual life? What has been a heaviness in your life? Doubts, pride, malice, evil eyes, worries, accusation of a sin? Get rid of this heaviness because many assistants have been left behind because of that.
Are you going to remain in the faith in 2016? It all depends on you to hear and obey the voice of the Holy Spirit.
"Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us,and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us" Hebrews 12.1
Many people did not resist sin, they did not resist the attacks of the devil because they were not in the Spirit of Faith. When we are in the Spirit of Faith there is an immediate reaction against temptation which is by rebuking that evil. He who is in the faith always remember the Word of God when evil approaches him. When we use our faith in the Word of God, satan does not resist. This is the secret that many assistants used to practice, but they don’t do it today anymore. In our battles and struggles we have to confess the Word of God. For example; It’s written, for I am with you… Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endures the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of God the throne of God.
"looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."
Hebrews 12.2
What is to look firmly? It means to look straight only to the Lord Jesus without deviating to the right or to the left. Peter deviated his eyes from the Lord Jesus and he sank, but if you look firm to Jesus you will remain until the end
