HOUR OF DISCOVERY, DAY 5. BY (PASTOR ADEOGUN)

TOPIC: Faithfulness and Integrity – Virtues to covet
TEXT: 2king 12:15, 16
The man of God started by saying he who cannot be faithful cannot be honest. He said, faithfulness brings integrity because Jesus himself is the truth. One of the virtues a child of God must possess is integrity. Your being in the church over a long period of time does not and cannot make you virtuous. Virtues are being demonstrated and people that see it in you will speak of it. (When you are virtuous, people will see it in you)
He went on to pinpoint two things that lowers integrity, which are:
– Women matter: Joseph was used as a case study. Joseph, being alone with his master’s wife maintained his integrity. Unlike David who coveted his warrior’s wife. If your integrity is lowered at a place, to redeem it back might be very difficult. If your weakness is being alone a woman/man why not flee from the temptation. Sin destroys virtue, reproaches and even destroys integrity.

– Money: How faithful you can be when you are put in charge of money determines how truthful you are. A life that wants to make it to heaven and does not have self- control when it comes to money issues should better resign that post that puts you in charge of money. If some things have been placed into your care, manage it judiciously. Gehaz caught leprosy due to infidelity and it was not recorded in the bible that the leprosy was taken off of him.
He concluded by pointing to the fact that, “position does not give virtue but integrity does”. How truthful you are in little things has a long way to go in your making and marring.

CHILDREN CONCERT
Convention day five, August 8, Child Evangelic Unit (CEU) concert was held, it was awesome, much fun and great. The children were really excited, they were about 3000 in all, parts of the song the choir rendered was kabiyesi, hosanna, where will I go.
The National Children Choir Master (NCM), PASTOR SUNDAY ABIODUN, said he is very happy but that there are lots of challenges facing the unit, one of them according to him, is that they are not supported by the adult, they don’t care about them, the church only care about the adult choir alone, “they don’t give them much attention to the extent that they give to the adult choir. It is painful and sad to say that the instrument used during the concert was rented by the unit”
JESUTOFUNMI OLAOBAJU, a choir, while expressing her feelings described the event as glorious, adding that after 6 months of rehearsal, the 2014 convention is really ASTONISHING CHRIST, “ we are facing financial problems”, she advice the children outside who are not using their talent, to use it wisely before God take it away from them.
DEBORAH ADEYANJU who is also a choir member said she is happy to be part of the choir ministering at the concert, she stressed that her blessed during all their ministrations cannot be quantified, adding that she hope to see more of these in the conventions to come.
