Pastor Bisi Adewale delivering the sermon

"Luke 2:40 – Jesus became strong physically, emotionally, mentally and in every area of his life. Life has 4 pillars".

"Number one is Spiritual, then Health, Family, and Career. But people do forget numbers 1 to 3 and go ahead to pursue number 4, and then scatter their lives. A time is coming when nothing will excite you again, but your health and that of your children.

A time is coming when your geography will shrink… when your geography will become Lagos, your street, your compound and a time when there will be no where to go".

AREAS WHERE YOU MUST BE SUCCESSFUL

The following are the areas where you must have successes, as a Christian. You must have;

Spiritual success - All these areas are very important, don’t live a subsided life – But the most important is spiritual; you must have a very strong spiritual life and have a personal relationship with Christ. If you wake up, go to work and come back, eat and sleep, you are living dangerously – Job 10:22.

“When Christ is not in you, your life be without form, you would be void and empty”.

Only Jesus can fill the void in our lives; that is why you need to reconnect. Number one duty of fathers is not to make money but to pastor the wife and the children.

Don’t fight for promotion in the office. If devil promotes you he will destroy you, so your spiritual life is very important. John 15:5.

If you get to a stage when you don’t feel like praying again or that you have not read your Bible in 3 days, you are very sick!

The officiating ministers, during the sermon

Moral success – You must be upright morally.

Run from adultery and fornication. A lot of destinies have been destroyed through sex, which lasts for only eight seconds! Proverbs 6:32-33. Don't destroy your life and future for a pleasure of just eight seconds.

Relational success - You need a Jonathan (Companion). To be a successful person, you must realize the need to have a good relationship with people or someone, who will help you get to the next level (to succeed). You cannot do it all alone so you need someone, a companion. Check your relationship with others and make amends.

You need a financial success – There are 4 Ms of money

Make it - Make money for a comfortable living.

Manage it – It is not how much you make, but how much you manage. Don’t live above your means, but below your means.
Master it - Learn more about money, understand it and master the use of it.

Multiply it - There’s no point buying about four cars, what are you doing with them? Rather invest your money in profitable businesses in order to multiply it.

Physical Success– You must be strong and healthy. Many people are well but not in health. But by the name that is above every other name, you shall be in health! Amen. Be mindful of what you eat. Diabetes is not from God and it is not from the devil. It is from the kitchen. Adventists are known to be healthy worldwide because of what they eat. If you are going from one hospital to the other, you are not an Adventist! Avoid eating so much oil, especially groundnut oil; coconut oil and olive oil are better. In the name that is above every other name, your health will come alive now. Amen.

Parental success Daniel 1:4 (3G Children) Good children, godly children and great children.

As a good parent, you must teach, train, model; and monitor provide and you must pray, for them (TTMMPP).

Every parent must be a teacher; every teacher may not be a parent. Teach them about sex, about God. Don’t take your children to school just for instruction, but for the scriptures.

Marriage Success

Celebrate your spouse – Any man that refuses to celebrate his wife will regret at old age! You need to work on your relationship with your wife. You need to be critically bias with your wife. And women, the number one thing that the men want from you is not sex, but respect. God will be with you.
Amen.
