Pastor Nomthi, while admonishing the congregation at the September 22 Sunday service from Proverbs 18:10 which is the promise for the week, explained that a tower gives strength to the weak, safety to the fearful, and hope to the hopeless. She noted that the Lord is this strong tower and at His name, every mountain moves and knees bow. She therefore led the congregation in calling the name of Jesus into their situations for relief.
WORDS OF ENCOURGEMENT FROM PASTOR NOMTHI ODUKOYA @ THURSDAY SHOWERS
Using the life of Joseph as recorded in Genesis 41:50-53 and 42:23 to admonish worshippers at the September 19 Thursday Showers, Pastor Nomthi said that God always turns seeming betrayal or any form of wickedness done against God’s children for their good; noting that such seeming negative circumstances build godly virtues like endurance, joy and strength in the lives of such believers. “You can’t go through endurance without learning another language like Joy and strength; knowing that you won’t die,” she said.
She further said that believers should learn not to be stagnant over past hurts or betrayals because it would stop them from moving forward to their promised land. “Stop remembering your afflictions or hurts, move on. Keep moving on while building your character and learning the new language. Difficult times are to remind you that there are better days ahead of you,” she noted.
She then encouraged them to always see through God’s eyes whenever they are passing through unpalatable situations; knowing that God is well able to cause those situations to work for their own good.
