LAT will be turning five years on Saturday 31st August. As we neared our anniversary last year, I did a series on the spiritual lessons we had to learn from our history. This time, I feel we should review what I consider to be the most important things God has supernaturally spoken to us in the last year since the anniversary. The purpose for the review is to inspire us to stay devoted to our Lord Jesus Christ.

The night after our 4th anniversary praise and worship service, I had this dream:

Juliana, our worship leader, took me and my daughters for a walk. It was a longer than usual walk for my girls. We got to a hill-top where there was a house belonging to a gentleman who was Juliana’s friend. He told us that whenever we need free water, we should just go up the hill to his house because he always has too much water.

This dream was symbolically depicting what we achieved on that anniversary. When Juliana and the worship team led us in a long worship session like we had never had before, we encountered our Lord Jesus Christ.

Now, whenever we congregate, we must, by true praise and worship, make God feel welcome in our midst. When we do that, God will always make His presence tangible to us. We must never forget that we are stones being put together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit (1 Peter 2:5 and Ephesians 2:22). That is why we are called "the tabernacle of the Last Adam". We must never falter in God’s number one purpose for our lives – we exist to please God. The greatest reward there ever was – the presence of God – is reserved for those who please God even as they worship Him in Spirit and in truth. We can be those people. This desire and pursuit must never depart from us. We should never turn our worship and praise sessions into anything other than to please God by ascribing to Him – in sincerity – all power, honor, and glory. He is all that matters any way. Hallelujah.

God bless you.

PS: We are preparing for the anniversary service on Sunday 8th September with longer than usual praise and worship sessions during the Sunday and Thursday services. Please be involved in this. If we fill the heavens with the rain of glory, they shall empty themselves upon us (Ecclesiastes 11:3) on 8th September – and we shall encounter Juliana’s Friend once again.
