Free Yourself from guilty

Matthews 27:15-25

Isaiah 53:3

Every time you look at the scripture, you will discover something beautiful.

In this season, God wants us to look at the message to do with Christ, the relationship with Him.


APOSTLE PAUL MOSES LUKONDE

When we look at us today, everyone has a prison. We have so many things that are in our hearts that are denying the free entry of Jesus Christ.

We have failed to allow Jesus to work in our hearts because of envy, jealous, greediness etc. The Bible says “our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit”, but we have not allowed Him to work in us freely.

There are times when we cage ourselves, but there is only one man who can give us freedom-Jesus Christ.

If we can see from the day we became Christians to now, we will find out that we have been crucifying Jesus in so many ways who is not even on the cross but in our hearts.

We cry every day because we have failed to allow Christ to work freely in our journey of our Christianity. Today, allow Jesus to set you free from this prison of setback.


APOSTLE PAUL MOSES LUKONDE

Life is all about decision, we may deny Christ’ freedom to operate in us, but who will suffer? It is us! The Lord is ready to help us from our weakness. The purpose why He came was to set the people of God free, to set all of us free.

Jesus wants to see a new person in the heart. Are you a new person? It is not easy for a genuine Christian to be understood.

There are times when you are innocent, but you carry the cross, because the enemy wants to rejoice and to see terrible things happen to you.

The mystery about salvation is in the relationship that you have with Christ. 

No matter how good you can be in this world, the enemy will still ask for your head. That is why you need to develop a relationship with God.

In times of pain, He is your strength and pillar;  when you find yourself in a situation where no one can help you, know that one man is always with you, He guides and protects you! Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ had no one to speak for Him, there was only one man who wanted to speak for Him, but he too failed.

You need the relationship with God, you need to know how to hear God, how to talk to Him for Him to guide and protect you.

Today Christians are excited about material things, but the true meaning of life, true joy comes from above.

If you want to be a happy person, allow Jesus to give you joy. If you want to see Joy in people, you will be destroyed. You need a strong relationship with God, the giver of that joy.

Christ is not guilty. He is a free man and He is saying that I came so that you may have life, and have it in abundance. When Christ sets a person free, he is free indeed.

APOSTLE PAUL MOSES LUKONDE

When you make a mistake as a child of God, when you repent and go to Christ, He will forgive you! Meaning, you are not guilty.

We have two types of Christians, there are people who can pray, but without faith and there are people who can just pray for two minutes and things happen.

There are people who can pray and fast for many days, but without faith and things don’t happen.

May this season remind you of who you are. Do not just be a man of prayer without faith.

You must know the relationship that you have with Christ. If Christ is not guilty, why are you guilty? Lead the life of Jesus Christ, lead the life of God. But never entertain certain mistakes in your life.

If you find yourself doing the same thing every day, that is not God, when you have an encounter with God, certain things die in you, certain weaknesses die.

When you find yourself doing the same thing, know that you are in the prison. And if you do not have the grace to see that you are in prison, you will never see the light,

You will only see what you want to see, but if you are a man of faith, you will know that something is threatening your life and you need to come out of it.

You need to come out of prison, it is not your place, and you have a place in the heart of Jesus.

If your heart is genuine, and all you want is to change and repent, there is no need to pray with guilt in your heart.

The mind of man is to remind you of the past mistakes. A man with a carnal mind will never speak something straight.

No matter how God will change your picture today, you still need the grace because society will still pull you down.

Satan is using your past mistakes to attack your today’s blessing. And you are also tormented in your mind.

In this season, God is looking at the heart that is ready. A child of God should not just think of himself but should think of others as well. Jesus Christ was in prison because of you and me. So we should also think of others. If you do not think of others, then you are not there.

You must ask yourself every time when you want to do something, how others will feel. Start thinking of others in your family or community.

Before you can say anything, think of others. Jesus Christ was not guilty, he came for us to be delivered.

He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not.  (Isaiah 53:3, ESV)

Was Christ happy that his friend left him? Who would like his or her friends to leave them? But this happened to Christ, he was mocked and tortured, even his friends left him because of you and me.

If people love you because you give them things, when you stop, will they continue loving you? Christ was in prison not because he was guilty, he was innocent. The right way to follow Christ is by loving others.

If Christ is not in prison, it is not your portion to be. He was there to redeem and save us, that is why we have this life we are enjoying today. It is time to correct things.  Let God give you the grace. Remember the right way of following Jesus is by thinking of others.

Not everyone who says Christ is born again. You see a born again through actions, that is when you can know if one knows Jesus or not!

Some people have more faith without prayer, that is dryness, you need to balance..

The higher you desire to go with your Christianity, the more dangerous it becomes.

The higher you go in faith, prayer and grace, the more dangerous it becomes.

People who know God don’t take things lightly. Begin to protect your life with the word of God and be a vessel of honor, to do what is right in the sight of God and man.

Ask God to work on your heart, in your actions, especially when you are alone. When you enter in isolation and your heart is happy, it is easy to love others..

The coming of Jesus Christ is to transform minds.

Life is a journey!

It is God’s grace that qualifies the unqualified.

My names are Apostle Paul Moses Lukonde, of a humble background, born at Mbereshi Mission Hospital in the Kingdom of Mwata Kazembe (Mwansabombwe) at a small village known as Lubasa in Luapula Province.

I am the last child in my family and my biological mother died when I was only 7 days old. When we talk of my biological father, I cannot say anything because I never lived with him. The rest is history.

To God be the glory, He raised heroes to take good care of His own, Sabina Chipembwe Lukonde (late) and George Lukonde still living to see his boy of yesterday how God is using him today, he is my hero. Dad, I love you so much.

By the special grace of God, I am the General Overseer of God’s Covenant Ministries, located in Kabangwe at GloryLand in Lusaka Zambia.

I am married to a wonderful and God fearing woman and together we have 3 amazing children, Gift, Promise and Joshua.

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.”  (Jeremiah 1:5, ESV)

To confirm the word of God and His calling upon my life, I was officially ordained as Reverend in 2012.

No man should think he or she could stop another man’s sun from rising. Therefore, when God says that you shall be great, it does not matter what any other person says or thinks.

Upon completion of my Grade 12 in 2001 at Mansa High School, the strong feeling to join Priesthood as a Catholic Priest was something that I did not understand. But God’s plan is not our plan

He pointed out to another great commissioning to serve Him as an Apostle.

And my ministry is built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, (Ephesians 2:20, ESV) GOD’S COVENANT MINISTRIES was founded in 2011 with merely 3 members in a small house in Libala Stage 3, Kubu Street at house number 33.
