The Ministry of the Holy Spirit

Ministry of the Word (MOW):

True Spirituality (TS).
Improving our Spiritual Understanding.
Theme: The Ministry of the Holy Spirit.
Memory  Verse:
” The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God” (Romans 8:16).
Beloved,
Without anointing,  spiritual  empowerment, the realm of the supernatural, and keying into the ministry of the Holy Spirit,  Christianity becomes a mere empty religion.
Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ Himself needed empowerment of the Holy Spirit to run a flourishing ministry on earth:
“How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him”(Acts 10:38).
Jesus promised all true believers this same empowerment:
“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth” (Acts 1:8).
This promise was followed by the assurance that believers so empowered will do greater works on earth:
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father” (John 14:12).
Once a person has accepted Christ as his Lord and Saviour, he is empowered by the Holy Spirit to become a child of God ( John 1:11-12) and by this virtue, he is superior to the devil. This understanding is very important. The only reason we are able to challenge the devil is because we are children of God. We are joint heirs with Christ in God ((Romans 8:17). This calls for righteousness, purity and holiness on the part of the believer, as the eyes of the Lord are too pure to behold iniquities ( Hab 1:13).
The big question is: Why is it that many children of God are not able to hear from God, their Father? The answer lies in lack of total obedience to the words of God, which leads to unrighteousness and separation from God (Isa 59:1-2). If only we can live a life of truth and total obedience to the word of God, the Holy Spirit is more than ready to guide us according to the Scripture:
“Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come” (John 16:13). This scripture enables us to know that the Holy Spirit only speaks what he hears from the Word. In other words, the Holy Spirit is powerless without the Word. Of course, we know from the scripture that the Lord Himself is the embodiment of that Spirit:
“Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty” ( 2 Cor 3:17).
A life of daily signs and wonders are the heritage of all true believers, if only we can key into the ministry of the Holy Spirit:
“And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover ( Mark 16:17-18).
If you truly believe in our Lord Jesus Christ, you are for signs and wonders! All you are required to do is work and walk with the Holy Spirit:
“This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh” (Gal 5:16).
Please, try to key into the ministry of the Holy Spirit in your daily living. Enjoy the Holy Spirit. Have a Spirit-filled month in Jesus name. Amen.
Prayer: For everyone reading this message, receive the grace of personal revival,  and to spiritually go higher in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
Yours in the Vineyard of Christ. Bro Ben Bassey, Iyobosa, & the MOW family.

In the Ministry Of the Word (MOW)-Acts 6:4, we primarily encourage and empower believers to be rich in the words of God: “let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom” (Col 3:16). The entrance of the WORD is the true source of LIGHT in a dark world(Ps 119:130). We also encourage believers to speak to one another “in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs(Eph 5:19). We encourage everyone to “seek first the kingdom of God  his righteousness”..Matt 6:33). We stress that: Righteousness exalts a person (Prov 14:34). We emphasize that pure Christianity is about True Spirituality in Christ Jesus. We emphasize that the POWER in the blood of Jesus has set us FREE from all forms of bondage, ignorance, disease and that where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (2Cor 3:17). Jesus  Christ is the Word of God (John 1:1; Rev 19:13). We emphasise that Jesus  is the Truth (John 14:6). The words of God are spirit & are Life(John 6:63). We allow the Scriptures to answer all questions. We avoid the dilution, misinterpretation or deliberate corruption of the words of God. We create the awareness that Jesus has made all true believers kings and priests unto God and his Father(Rev 1:6). In addition, aside from soul winning, as a spiritual body, we also empower unbelievers with knowledge using the principles of our Lord Jesus Christ with the understanding that when they witness the power of the living God, they will be compelled to believe and exalt His  holy name (Psalm 46:10).
One major objective of MOW is to increasingly improve everyone’s spiritual understanding! Spiritual ignorance is a major cause of human destruction(Hosea 4:6). Indeed, many children of God have gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge (Isa 5:13). Indeed, “through knowledge shall the just be delivered” (Prov 11:9).
Please note that the MOW is an initiative and the spiritual arm of Abasi Health Foundation (AHF). AHF is a registered NGO in Nigeria , with the primary objective of empowering all groups of people to optimize their health. It is aimed at encouraging everyone to have increasing awareness of three broad levels of health: Physical, Mental and Spiritual. May God give you the grace of increasing understanding in Jesus Name. Amen. Websites: http//www.ministryoftheword.org; http//www.abasihealthfoundation.org
