Partnership in Missions: Giving – By Sis Oluwaseun Ogundare

“It has been established in previous articles under this series that missions play a vital role in spreading the message of Jesus Christ to the ends of the earth, and that the call extends to every believer. This article explores ‘giving’ as a way of partnering with missions.

Giving simply means the free transfer of possession or value to someone else, and partnering with missions through giving simply means ‘giving to missions.’

It is true that God will always provide. Definitely, God’s work will never lack supply; however, God uses men. He has called us to partner with him. The Scripture sets a precedence for this. Examples in the Old Testament include Abraham hosting angels, Israelites bringing their substance for God’s work (Building of the tabernacle), Rahab hosting the spies, the widow of Zarephath feeding Elijah, and the list goes on and on. Women like Joanna, wife of Chuza, Susanna, and Mary Magdalene ministered of their substance to Jesus (Luke 8:3). The Philippians church also supported Paul with his mission work. The book of Romans chapter 16 also gives an account of Paul’s personal greetings to people, some of whom he described as his ‘helpers in Christ.’
What can I give?
One may ask, what can I give?…”

“For me to live is Christ”: A Reminder and a Call to Action – By Sis Oluwaseun Ogundare

“Today’s topic is derived from Philippians 1:21: “For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” It brings to mind another verse from Galatians 2:20:

“I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.”

Reflecting on these verses, I realized that the statement “For me to live is Christ” serves as both a reminder and a call to action.

On one hand, it reminds us of the profound significance of the cross and the beautiful exchange that took place there. Our past, sins, shame, and guilt were nailed to the cross, and in return, we received a new life in Christ. It reminds us of the limitless possibilities and realities found in Jesus. It reminds us of our identity in Him and..”

Confessions of a Missionary (Part 4) By Sis Oluwaseun Ogundare

“I am God’s representative on earth.
I legislate His will here on earth.
His will is done on earth just as it is in heaven.
May His kingdom come in every nation, in every tribe, in every tongue, in every language.
Our God reigns, let the earth be glad.

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me.

He has anointed me to proclaim liberty to the captive and opening of prison to them that are bound.
I decree freedom, liberation of people, nations from the power of darkness.

I proclaim the name of Jesus over the nations.
I disarm every link, operation, line of communication of the enemy in the nations.
I render their devices useless.

I decree that governments, media establishments, educational institutions, culture and thought patterns come in alignment with the word of God.
I cast down thrones, covens and everything raising itself above the knowledge of Christ.
They have been defeated
He has made a public display of them (Col 2:15).

It is finished!!

We sound the alarm; our God reigns over the earth.

Those who seat in darkness have seen a great Light…”

“I am a city set on a hill
I cannot be hidden

The soil that I plant on is fertile
No seed is lost
No one is lost
The words that I speak take a firm root in the the hearts of men
It withstands the rain, the sun, trials and tribulations of life

I am a Watchman on the tower
I will not keep silent till…”
