Divine Revelation and Open Doors

FORWARD

Having giving my life to Jesus Christ over three decades ago and I also rededicated my life to God before I was ordained, I have being serving God and imparting his word to my generation according to the scripture and revelation. Having preached the gospel for many years, I sat down to get fresh inspiration from Holy Spirit on his preferred way to communicate divinity to humanity, with God’s kind of result.

The month of September 2008 was when Holy Spirit revealed his ministry to me, he also revealed God the father, Jesus Christ the Son which was documented by me and it changed my faith to ‘Great Faith’ in the Kingdom journey.

On the 22nd of May 2009 at 03:32 am, while I was still waiting, he took me on a divine journey. All I experienced with Holy Spirit was collated and became ‘Divine Revelation and Open Doors’, by reading this book, you will encounter divine manifestation of his power and Doors will open to you in Jesus mighty Name, there is nothing too hard for him but always develop your faith and I promise you before you finish reading this book, your faith will become ‘Great’ to receive your expectation from God. Amen.

Whatever is the situation, whatever is your expectation, today I say it is possible with God. The more we ‘Love God and our neighbours’ and worship him in spirit and in truth, the more impossibilities becomes possible. Amen. Matthew 19:26: But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Beloved, the first two commandments speaks about Love and when we surround ourselves with this divine virtue then we are very close to God.

Divine Revelation as a manuscript touched so many lives on face book, Ministries, media network and also used in our school of ministry and fellowship centres for discipleship.

ACKNOWLEGDEMENT

I give God Almighty the glory, honour and dominion for revealing his messages to me. I will also use this opportunity to thank all the members of Immanuel Foundation also known as Christ Foundation Church worldwide for their prayers and support.

I am grateful to my lovely wife, Pastor Bennita Ajayi, my son, Samuel Ajayi and daughter ,Sarah Ajayi for their prayers, support, and encouragement towards the success of this book. I will also use this opportunity to thank my parents, Evangelist Joseph and Lady Felicia Ajayi for their prayers,especially Apostle John ,President, His Voice Cathedral International Ministry Inc, and Apostle Thomas, General Overseer of CTI also for their prayers and counsel throughout my research and completion of this book.

INTRODUCTION

Revelation is derived from the Greek word ‘apokalupsis,’ meaning ‘unveiling’. Divine Revelation is supernatural communication from God through the inner still, small voice of Holy Spirit, also it could come in form of vision or dream, it could be either oral or written{vision}, though usually restricted to its written aspect, that is, to the whole contents of Holy Scripture. God showing or unveiling himself: that is, his Being, his moral will and his redemption in Christ, future occurrences, messages for the journey of the Kingdom.

All Scripture is revelation, also divine revelation revealed through children of God and his prophets refreshes our spirit, soul, conscious and subconscious mind as the Bible remind us how his presence will be made manifest to us in end time ‘‘That the young shall see vision and old shall dream dreams’’Joel 2:28: After this, I will pour my Spirit on everyone. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams;

Divine revelation has also made certain for us by the attestation of miracles and prophecy. They generally certify to the truth of doctrine and the commissioning of the prophet to prophecy and also attests to revelation. (Isaiah 41:22-23). Divine revelation is the fact of God speaking. But how did he speak. he spoke by the prophets, also by his son (hebrews 1:1-3); he inspired us according to (1 Timothy 3:15-16). Inspiration may be defined as that operation of the divine Spirit which renders a speaker of writer infallible in the communication of truth. Whether or not previously known.

OPEN DOORS

It is through Almighty God we experience open doors, this could come inform of blessings, contacts, marriage, employment, creative abilities and restoration. The manifestation of open doors is according to how close we are to God Proverb 8: 17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.18 Riches and honour are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness.

It’s God’s guidance we need to recognise open doors, in other words It is God’s discernment we need to be able to recognise a door or doors.

Revelation 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.

1 Corinthians 16: 9 For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.

Matthew 7: 7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

Divine Revelation and Open Doors brings awareness to readers and how we can come closer to God, getting to know who he is and his provision to his children. This book has nourished thousands of readers in our various organisations when it was in manuscript form with testimonies before publication. I know you will be blessed and from now henceforth, you will be able to recognise open doors from heaven in Jesus Mighty name.

Amen

MY ENDORSEMENT

To see Apostle Lawrence Ajayi today, in the context of his worldwide ministry is to see the power and fruitfulness given by our Lord Jesus Christ, empowered by the Holy Spirit. It’s been my privilege to be a friend and associate of Apostle Lawrence Ajayi, President and General Overseer, Immanuel Foundation Worldwide beginning with my first meeting in England and Scotland.

The book, Divine Revelation and Open Doors you hold in your hands tells the great vision God gave him as an Evangelist, Prophet and Teacher of the Gospel to Nations. Not often are you caught away to another time and place while reading, but you will be in the pages that follow; and you will be drawn in.

Adults, teens, pre-scholars of the World will be encouraged to follow more hardly after God and you will be fulfilled in your callings. My desire for all who read this book is that you may learn from it the joy and the inner strength that will come as you read the whole book.

GOD THE FATHER, THE SON AND THE HOLY GHOST

King of Kings, Majesty, Mighty GOD

God the Father, forever existing, is the creator of the heavens and the earth, through Jesus Christ and all that is in them. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, who is the word of God and who eternally existed. We believe that he is the Messiah, the Christ, the divine Son of the living God, conceived of the Holy Spirit, born in human flesh of the virgin Mary. We believe that it is by him that God created all things, and that without him was not anything made that was made. We believe in the Holy Spirit as the Spirit of God and of Christ. The Holy Spirit is the power of God and the Spirit of life eternal (2 Timothy:1:7; Ephesians:4:6; 1 Corinthians:8:6; John:1:1-4; Colossians:1:16).

Jesus Christ is called the Word, who was with God in the beginning and is also identified as God (John:1:1-2). All things were created through him (verses 3, 10; Ephesians:3:9; Colossians:1:16; hebrews:1:1-3), and he later became flesh and dwelled among human beings (John:1:14).Isaiah 45:1. The Father gave his only begotten Son in sacrifice as the Lamb of God for the forgiveness of our sins.

BIBLE TEXT

Revelation 19:16. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King of Kings, And Lord of Lords.

1Timothy1:17: Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

MESSAGE

King of Kings, Majesty, God of heaven living in the righteous, gentle Saviour, closest friend, strong deliverer, beginning and the end, All within me falls at your throne, I bow for your majesty, I lay my all before you now, we live to serve your majesty, worship you, Love eternal, faithful and true, Who bought the nations. All within me cries out in praise.

Jesus the King of Kings, the Redeemer of mankind began his ministry; he was recognized by John the Baptist, who spoke Behold, the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Throughout Scripture, it is clear that without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin. As the Lamb of God, Jesus shed his blood for the sins of all. Jesus Christ came to the world to be our Saviour and King, but they killed him.

The word King is used symbolically in the Bible to signify someone who possesses supreme power. In fact, God is referred to as King in 1 Timothy 1:17: Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. Also in 1 Timothy 6:13-16: In the sight of God, who gives life to everything, and of Christ Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you to keep this command without spot or blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, which God will bring about in his own time—God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honour and might forever. Amen.

The book of Revelation shows Jesus’ second coming to the earth and all will see him come in glory as the King. The book of Revelation portrays not the Lamb of God coming to take away the sin of the world, but the Lion of Judah coming to judge the world. Instead of Behold the lamb, a lamb that came for all but was recognized by few, we read:

Revelation1:17: And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. So it is to be. Amen.

Jesus Christ is termed King of Kings in the Bible, particularly in the Book of Revelation, 17:14 and 19:16. Jesus says in the Book of Matthew 28:18 that all authority on earth has been given to him. In John 18:36. Jesus is the only King whose eternal dominion and rule is unquestioned, having been anointed by God the Father himself. The Kingship of Jesus was prophesied. There are a number of prophesies that mention that Jesus would be King and that also help us to identify when Jesus would assume Kingship. (2 Samuel 7: 13; Jeremiah 23:5, 6; Isa. 9: 6; Dan. 2: 44).

Perhaps the most interesting prophesy regarding Jesus’ kingship is found in, Zechariah 6: 12, 13: King of Kings, Majesty, God of heaven, living in me, the gentle Saviour, closest friend, Strong Deliverer, beginning and end, your majesty, I can but bow, I lay my all before earth and heaven, worship you, Love eternal, faithful and true. he is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, now, not that he is going to be and as such he stands in contrast to all other earthly kings. King Jesus is incomparable to all other kings. Jesus Christ is not an ordinary King, because he is Lord and God and is the King of the universe today and will remain the King of the universe tomorrow. he now reigns over the affairs of men and the book of Revelation is just that, the revelation of Jesus Christ as Lord and King, ruling over all things with absolute power, dominion and authority, no matter what we see happening as he brings judgment upon the wicked in this world, wars, pestilences and all the rest, Jesus is sitting on the throne and ultimately in control of all things.

There are four main facets of the life of King Jesus. he was prophesied, presented, proclaimed and he is pre-eminent.

THE PROPHECY OF JESUS CHRIST

First, King Jesus was prophesied in the old testament and new testament as the inspired word of God and the coming King. Jeremiah 23:5-6 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth. In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely and this is his name whereby he shall be called, The Lord Our Righteousness. he is the only King who is all wise and full of judgment and justice all the time.

JESUS CHRIST PRESENTATION

Next, King Jesus was presented. he was foretold in the old testament and the new testament is full of his appearance and the absolute and specific fulfilment of those prophecies.

The Old testament gives prophetic pictures of King Jesus and the new testament gives historic portraits of King Jesus, that is why Matthew refers to Jesus as king 14 times, Mark refers to him as king 6 times, Luke refers to him as king 5 times, and John refers to him as king 14 times. If you read the New Testament carefully, you will find that according to Luke 17:20-21 his kingship and kingdom is spiritual in nature. And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said the kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! Or, lo there! For, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

JESUS CHRIST PROCLAMATION

Thirdly King Jesus is proclaimed, the first royal speech that Jesus gave is one sentence and found in Mark 1:15 The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

When the masses cried out, Hosanna! meaning save now they were saying "we know that you are the king that Zechariah told us would come to us on a donkey.

We know that you are the king whose love will smite us, whose love will redeem us, whose love will conquer our wills, the king who will carry us through to eternal life, the king who will empower us over sin and Satan, we know that you’re the king that will cause us to reign and rule with you."

JESUS CHRIST IS THE PRE-EMINENT

King Jesus is pre-eminent. The book of Revelation as much if not more than other books very clearly reveals to us the pre-eminence of King Jesus. There you find crowns and diadems. The crowns speak of his constitutional monarchy and his diadem of his absolute power. Daniel 7:13-14

13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.

HIS PRESENCE IN OUR LIVES

When King Jesus is invited into your life and made Lord over your life, he reigns on the throne of your life, you will not have a negative and cynical life, you will not live a confused and doubtful life because Bible says ‘‘The light shineth and darkness comprehend not’’. Because when King Jesus comes into your life he gives you his victory and makes it your victory, he makes you a partaker and participant of his victory.

Ephesians 1:3-12 "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestined us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence; Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: That in the dispensation of the fullness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of him who worked all things after the counsel of his own will.

That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ." Finally, Jesus Christ is a different kind of king than any earthly king, because he came from heaven, from the throne of the universe, to take on the form of man and walk among men to show us Fatherly love and bring us his salvation, righteousness and blessings. he was that Word of God made flesh. That is why there is no other king like unto King Jesus.

No matter what person in history is the most victorious king or ruler on the earth, Jesus Christ is the King of kings! Philippians 2: 9: Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11: And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Impartation: May the King of Kings, LORD of Lords continue to increase us with divine wisdom, knowledge and understanding in the Kingdom Journey and in this world in Jesus Name.

God is Love

BIBLE TEXT

1 John 4: 8 he that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

John 3:16, For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Romans 5:8, But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

MESSAGE

The Bible tells us that God is Love (1 John 4:8). But how can we even begin to understand that truth? There are many passages in the Bible that give us God’s definition of love. The most well known verse is John 3:16, For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. So one way God defines love is in the act of giving. However, what God gave or should we say, who God gave was not a mere gift-wrapped present; God sacrificed his only Son so that we, who put our faith in his Son, will not spend eternity separated from him. This is an amazing love, because we are the ones who choose to reject God, yet it’s God who mends the separation through his intense personal sacrifice, and all we have to do is accept his gift.

Another great verse about God’s love is found in Romans 5:8, But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. In this verse and in John 3:16, we find no conditions placed on God’s love for us. God doesn’t say, as soon as you clean up your act, I’ll love you; nor does he say, I’ll sacrifice my Son if you promise to love Me. In fact, in Romans 5:8, we find just the opposite. God wants us to know that his love is unconditional, so he sent his Son, Jesus Christ, to die for us while we were still unlovable sinners. We didn’t have to get clean, and we didn’t have to make any promises to God before we could experience his love. God’s love for us has always existed, and because of that, he did all the giving and sacrificing long before we were even aware that we needed his love.

God is Love, and his love is very different from human love. God’s love is unconditional, and it’s not based on feelings or
