All things are created twice

Text: Gen 7:1, 2:5-9

   Create means to form. Everything in this world are created twice. First was creation and the second was confirmation.
   As you can see in Gen 1 to the end, God created everything, but they are yet to manifest until he created a man that can take care of it. Immediately the man factor comes into play every tree germinated and grow.
    So the first stage was physical creation while the second stage of manifestation was supernatural confirmation of what God has created before. The same thing happens in the creation of man. Man was first formed (created) but was still redundant (clay) until there was a breathe from God that brings it back to life. (In creation, man was clay but in the second stage of confirmation, life exist and man carries the presence and intelligence of God)
   After Man made a mistake in the garden of Eden, God will have send them out immediately but He still waited to hear from them, to confirm what they have done. Adam return all the blame back to God ( saying it is the woman you gave me), God send them out of the garden of Eden because he couldn't take responsibilities of his mistake but has to do it the second time.
   Dreams become a dream only when it is confirmed. God confirmed the destiny of Joseph twice in dreams (Gen 37:5-11). There is always a place of creation (birth) and confirmation. Any man that want to come into limelight at birth (creation) Will fade away like flame of fire. Even when a Mani's been given birth to, he/she is not reckon with until after naming on the eighth days.
   Creation (birth) comes before confirmation. Many destiny has been wasted because they didn't wait for the second creation (confirmation) before coming out into the limelight. Any man still at first creation (birth) should run away from premature manifestation or else he/she will not see the light of the day. Man minister of God has lost their place and die like chicken because they laugh out immediately they were called, they didn't wait for the appointed time of confirmation. They launch out after called without training and confirmation from God.
   Jesus journey on earth shows us that there is a big difference between the two creation ( birth and confirmation). Jesus Christ didn't start ministry immediately he was born, he passed through process (from birth to confirmation). The day He was baptized and Heaven confirms his as the only son of God wasn't even the day he came into limelight. He went through a journey of wilderness for 40days and night. He run away from premature manifestation and His ministry did exploit.
  The disciple of Jesus Christ are first called (birth/created) but couldn't do anything until the second creation (confirmation), the new birth by Holy spirit in the upper room on the day of Pentecost. Jesus gave them clear instructions "tarry ye in Jerusalem until thou received the Holy Spirit". Don't do anything until you're confirmed.
    Until the second creation (confirmation) of dreams, visions, calling you will not be able to face all the challenges that comes upon you. But when God confirm you, every challenges will become a propeller/ stepping stone to your next level. You'll not be discouraged no matter what.
    Remember it is not the day David was anointed as king that he enter the palace and become King. He was birthed as King and confirmed (second creation) before he ascend the throne.
   The distance between the first creation (birth) and the second (confirmation) is training (work in progress)
   In our day to day activities, its a principle that all things are created twice, but not all forts creation are  by conscious design. 
   In our personal lives, if we do not develop our own self awareness and become responsible for first creation, we empower other people and circumstances outside our circle of influence to shape much of our lives by default.
   There is first creation to every part of our lives, we're the second creation of our productiveness, habits.... Habk 2:2.
The unique human capacities of self awareness, imagination and conscious enables us to take charge of our first creation to write our own script.
   ( Pro activity is based on self-awareness. Imagination and conscious enables us to expand our pro activity to exercise personal leadership in our lives.)
    Through imagination, we visualize the uncreated worlds of potential that are within us, through conscious we can come in contact with the principle of God with our own talents, habits e.t.c
All things are created twice: first is mentality (imagination); second is physical (reality). That is you have imagine your idea, before you birth it into reality.

Attributes
* plan (first creation)
* re-check ( align it with God)
* create (confirmation)-- reality
* Be confident
* inspire others
* Be patient with the process
* Growth ( make sure your plan multiple, increases)

Stewardship/manager

Text: Gen 2:4-5; 37:2, Exo 3:1-10
Stewardship is God given responsibility with accountability. It is also a means of managing God resources. 
    A manager is a personresponsible for controlling or administering an organization or group of staff. A manager is a person responsible for supervising and motivating employees and for directing the progress of an organization.
  The main reason God created man was to manage God's resources. To control, supervise, administer and direct the earth (Gen 2:15 says and the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it)
     After God created the earth and everything inside it, most of this things are still hidden in the ground because God was waiting for a man that will take care of his creation. The first thing God told man after creation was to dress it. "To dress means to decorate in an attractive way".
     God give man the first assignment of "dress the garden up, so that it will be attractive and condusive for living and God's visitation. You'll see that God do visit the earth in the cool of the day to see what Adam (the first man) has done.
    The next commandments is to keep it. To keep means to retain possession of the earth. God blessing upon man was to be fruitful, multiply, replenish and have Dominion over everything God has.
    If you can't manage the resources you have in your hand, God can never trust you. No matter your days of fasting and prayer God might not answer you until He sees you can manage resources very well..
    Gen 37:2 Joseph do give his father reports of every activities that goes on and this makes his father to love him more. He gives both good and evil reports of what transpires. His ability to manage his father resources makes God to love him and established the covenant of the House of Abraham to him.
    This act of supervising, controlling and motivating employees follows him to the Potiphar House. He find favour and everything was handed over to him, he later end up in jail but this great attributes still emerge in prison and he oversee the prisoner. His management skills make him know the trouble of the butler and Baker when they had dreams and couldn't interpret it..
    Because of Joseph faithfulness in little  things, God make him a ruler in a strange land.
   This sermon shows that God entrusts more and more of his material resources/creation to those who prove they can be trusted to manage it effectively. This is one of the reasons why God has always wanted his people to be generous in giving of tithes and offerings. It is a form of spiritual resources management and accountability.
   In order for us to manage our finances, we must first understand that God owns everything. The second part of psalm 50:12b says : for the world is mine and all that is in it.
    Psalm 50, we see he owns the cattle on a thousand hills. Everything we possess is merely a loan from Him, so that we can use his resources to bring Him glory and build his kingdom. If we understand that we have an honor and duty to manage these resources well and accountable, we can then take God by his words. (Psalm 50:14;23.... Stated all he wants in return is praises and we should pay our vows)
     Stewardship is not only in other things but also in you. You'll see that God didn't trust Moses with the freedom of the isrealite until he became a good manager by controlling his temperament and learning from his father in law cattles. When God sees that He can manage his emotions well, he then call his attention at Horeb through the burning bush.. (Exo 3: 1-10)
     Whatever you did not manage, you'll lose and God will never give you what you pray for but he will give you what you can manage.
      Crisis in life, business, church is as a result of mismanagement.
The four factors of stewardship
* God owns everything and I own nothing (1cor 4:7)
* God entrusts me with everything I have. ( The text doesn't say that the master gave his possessions to the steward for the steward to keep for himself. He entrusted the steward
* I am responsible to increase what God has given to me. I may increase it or diminish it. A good steward uses his/her gifts/responsibilities/possessions for spiritual benefit.
* God can call me into account at any time.
 While we don't know exactly when it's coming, we are promised that our day of accountability is coming ( not for our sins - those were paid for at the cross; but for our works for the stewardship of what God has entrusted to us 2cor 5:10)

Abundant life

Text: John 10:10
          When you have abundant life,  it means grace is available for you. Grace is God helping you in your low esteem.
        In grace, you don't need man,  You only need God.  And you must know where God brought you from,  So you know how to praise him and surrender all to him.
        Abundant life is God please with you.  Abundant life will reflect in your life,  career and family. Three levels of abundant life : health,  finance and soul.
        When you have abundant life,  you will be productive;  you will be a partaker of divine nature;  every dead thing will come back to life;  you will not suffer damage....

TOPIC: DEVELOPING THE NEXT LEVEL OF MENTALITY
TEXT: 1COR 15:10

        Developing the next level of mentality deals with change of mentality because the bible said 'as a man thinketh so he is'. there is nothing great except grace. your grace is also multiplied by your labor and thinking.
        Remember that destiny is not destination, it is grace that takes you to destination. nothing defines our destiny like mentality [proverb 23:7]. it is poor mentality, that makes poor and a good mentality makes rich. your tomorrow is determined by today. developing the next level of mentality by your labor, mentality and knowledge today.
       Labor to become spiritual, it is the highest asset. our imagination creates our destiny and future (Gen 11:6). ''Begin to imagine and think good''. until you change the way you think, you may not change the way you live (1chronicals 4:10)
      Every child of God most have these mentalities
1. every child of God is redeemed to have dominion [Gen 1:26]]
2. every child of God is redeemed to be fruitful, replenish and multiply
3. every child of God is a spiritual lion [ rev 5:5; pro 28:1] [until you have lions heart, you will not have lion shear]
4. every child of God is a spiritual eagle [eagles are not afraid of storm. they make advantage of the storm and there is no bad season for them. they make advantage of the weather and go for annual revivals. eagles does not eat dead things [Deut 32:9-14]

         The same law and rules is given and applied to everyone but your faith, mentality and labor determines the result. [Rom 8:12-15; Heb 9:12; Rev 5:9-10; 1cor 6:20; Gal 2:39]. You must fortify your confidence through the word of God to change your mentality and perspectives about life.

PRAYERS
1. Today, i am moving out of my ignorant holding me down
2. Every covenant of poverty holding me bound, break by fire
3. Evil laboratory where evil research is being carried out about my life, catch fire in Jesus name
4. that power in possession of my breakthrough, release and die in Jesus name
5. Every evil power protecting my enemies, be paralysed in Jesus name
6. Every inherited problems flowing in my life catch fire in Jesus name
7. Blood line problems in my life catch fire now
8. Dream caterer, preparing evil food for me in my dream, fall down and die in Jesus name.
