Spiritual Antenna | Bishop Fred Adetunji | 1.21.24

Spiritual Antenna

           

"Tuning into God's Frequency to deliver men"


In 1 Corinthians 2:16, we read, "For who has understood the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ." (To provide with authoritative information or advice) Gen 1:26 / Gen 2:7 God breath into man


Rom 11:34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counselor?

Instruct/counsel 

Rom 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.


How do you walk by the spirit?

1. Depend on the spirit power

2. Grow in Godliness 

3. Obey God’s commands

4. Increase intimacy with God


We are to instruct or remind Him according to His word

Because we have His mind 


GK Nooce: meaning

A. the mind: faculties of perceiving and understanding Eg feeling, judging, determining 

B. capacity for understanding spiritual truth, ability to recognize goodness and hating evil

D. the power of judging soberly, calmly and impartially (authority)


Because we know HIM as HE KNOWS us GK Ginosko

A. to learn to know, come to know, 

To be intimate with him or to become acquainted with Him

Knowing God. require communication and personal relationships which bring you to a place of revelation. 

This is a year of intimacy with God: HE wants to reveal himself  to us and through us by His word


We are ambassadors of the Lord

Eze37:1~14


Ezekiel 22:29-31

The people of the land have used oppression, exercised robbery, and have vexed the poor and needy: yea, they have oppressed the stranger wrongfully.

30 And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.

31 Therefore have I poured out my indignation upon them; I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath: their own way have I recompensed upon their heads, saith the Lord GOD.


2 chronicles 7:12

12 And the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for a house of sacrifice.


13 If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;


14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.


15 Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attend unto the prayer made in this place. 


This is a year of intimacy with God: 

To offer ourself as sacrifices 


Why a house of prayer? 

Creation is growling for the sons of God. (Rom 8:22)


5. God wants to use you to stop what the enemy is doing. 


Gen 3:8 God has a habit of working with Man. 

Most of the mighty men in the bible had fellowship with God.


He used Abraham to intercede for Lot, Genesis 18:16-33,19:29

Moses for Israel: Exodus 32:31


He is waiting on you to give your all

 Gen 5:24 And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him


Gen 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God


Gen 17:1, And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect

To possess the mind of Christ means 

we have received His thoughts, His love, His wisdom, and His values. 


Our purpose is not just to hold these treasures within ourselves but to transmit them to others, sharing the good news and being His voice in this world.


Antena is of no use if it fails to transmit. 

Similarly, as Christians, 


we are not passive; we are active transmitters of the divine signal. We are called to radiate the love of Christ, 



We are to share the message of forgiveness, and to communicate His will and purpose  to humanity with clarity and fervor.


But how do we ensure that the signal we send is clear


The key is to remain firmly grounded in the scriptures and in prayer. 



By studying the Bible, we align ourselves with God's word. In prayer,


We maintain our connection with the Divine, much like a tower that requires a power source to function. 

Through the Holy Spirit, we are empowered to communicate the truths of the gospel.


Let us not forget that an antenna receives signal reaches and send it to all directions, without discrimination. 


Likewise, Christ's message through us should extend to all peoples, regardless of their background, status, or previous beliefs. In 



Matthew 28:19, Jesus commands us, "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations..." 


This is our commission, to broadcast far and wide.


However, we must be mindful of the condition of our tower. 


In a world fraught with noise and interference, we need to ensure that our signal remains strong. 

We must guard against the corrosion of sin, 


the rust of complacency, and the damage of false teachings, 



Our maintenance comes through the pursuit of holiness, repentance, and continual growth in faith.

 

As we emit the frequencies of kindness, mercy, and justice, our lives themselves become messages of hope and transformation, drawing others to Christ.


Let us, therefore, stand firm as communication towers for Jesus Christ. 


Let His word resonate through us. 


May we spread the message of His love, hope, and salvation to every corner of the earth. 


And in doing so, may we fulfill our calling to be faithful ambassadors of Christ, 


serving as the very conduits of God's grace to a world in desperate need of His divine message.


Amen.
