AMEN


BY PASTOR O.O ABEL

During the cross over service I spoke extensively on YES and AMEN, these ushered us into our year of YES and AMEN. To God be the glory our life has never remain the same

For this month of March we are treating the topic that says “AMEN”. I will go deeper on the word Amen alone than I did on YES and AMEN together.

This is a message that will open your inner eyes, after this message you can be rest assured that your miracle will abound while doors are shut against  every power militating against your miracle in Jesus name.



Rise up and pray this prayer: O Lord my God, let Amen establish itself in my life today in the name of Jesus.

AMENRevelation 7:9 -12
Of all words in the world AMEN is the most universal, regardless of the Language. Lovely enough it’s one of Jesus’ names.

ORIGINS OF AMEN.

Amen is derived from the Hebrew āmēn, which means “certainty,” “truth,” and “verily.” In English, the word has two primary pronunciations: ah-men or ay-men. ... Amen is found in both the Old and New Testament.
Amen is spoken to express ratification, agreement. Amen means “it is so” or so it be”

WHAT AMEN IS

1. It means “to ratify” or “confirm”. This can also said to mean acknowledgement as well as affirmation. That is why we associate the word AMEN to prayer. 1st Peter 5:14.
2. Amen is another name for Jesus Christ Rev.3:14, Isaiah 65:16 so when we declare Amen we simply say that we trust in all that God is doing in our life.
3. To say “Amen” is to give our endorsement to the decrees and act of God. We could even translate Amen as YES. By saying Amen we are stating that God’s decree are established and sure. In Numbers 5:22 we can see Amen is used to seal oath.
4. According to 2nd Corinthian 1:20 . Amen means the promises of God are reliable. Jesus is amen to all that God has spoken.

AMEN AND MIRACLES

We have two different words here, having known the meaning of Amen, what is miracle?
Miracle is a surprising and welcome event that is not explicable by natural or scientific law of a divine power. For example:
Healing of the bitter water of Marah Exodus 15:23 -25
The fall of Jericho, Joshua 6:6 -25.
Replenishing the oil and meal at Zeraphat , 1st king 17:14 -16
The healing of the water of Jericho by Elisha 2nd King 2:21 -22
Jesus stilled the storm Matthew 8:23 -27 and many more as you know.

CHRISTIANS AND AMEN

Little did I know that people comes to church or respond to prayers with two types of Amen until I met a daughter of Zion in the USA.  This woman is totally souled out for Jesus. She shared a testimony with me,  she said last year January someone jokingly said a prayer for her saying by this time in  2020 you will be with your husband who will love and care for you, she said she busted into laughter making jest of the prayer, that how can such prayer be relevant after she had waited fasting and praying for husband for 5years not even ordinary boyfriend came around talk less of husband and that she has accepted it as her fate to live single without a man for the rest of her life.
But the person praying jokingly also jokingly asked her to say Amen to that prayer and she said she could remember vividly that she said the second type of Amen. Meaning amen that carries no faith. The amen sounds like this “amennnoooonnnn”. In my language this is said as “amin oo nnnn” meaning forget about such miracle. To God be the glory she is now with her loving husband. Mercy must have spoken for her.

TWO CATEGORIES OF PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH

1. The true worshipers ,who worship in spirit and in holiness they say AMEN with faith and miracle follows
2. The church goer, they worship in flesh, come to church to show off their material things
They can come to trap opposite sex or even coming only for Materia gains they say the empty amen that carries no faith.

AMEN AND MIRACLES GOES TOGETHER

Amen and miracle goes together that is why i said
SOME MISSED THE MIRACLE
SOME GOT THE MIRACLE
SOME GOT THE MIRACLE AND APPROPRIATE IT
SOME GOT THE MIRACLE MISAPPROPRIATE IT
ITS ALL DEPENDS ON YOUR AMEN
IS YOUR AMEN ACCOMPANIED BY FAITH?
IF YES, YET NO MIRACLE
CHECK YOUR WORK
YOUR AMEN DOES MIRACLE BY YOUR FAITH
THROUGH YOUR WORK.
SAY AMEN IN FAITH AND LAY YOUR HAND ON SOMETHING
FOR THE MIRACLE TO MANIFEST.
God bless you as you say AMEN!
