Dead Flies, Bible says, Bible says the devil only goes away for a season, big errors, big sins to destroy, but a time came, but after the pestering, but also even as human beings, but because he

inability to say no, But suddenly after, but suddenly when the test came, but the king's targets were the things of God in the palace, but the things that destroy men mostly are little things that we assume are not important, but there are some things God will not kill because He has given us the grace, but to say a little, but to their own destiny also, but when we get to the critical point when

into them, Father, Father Abraham said okay, father Abraham’s problem in Genesis 16: 2 again was his inability to say no to Sarah, First, for 40 years, from the evil that is to come, Genesis 2: 16 – 17, giving us grace, go and be the first born, go and do 419, go and do this, go and speak to the Rock, go to any length, God, God bless you ma, God called him onto an assignment, God had promised,

he didn't even have the wisdom to begin to say but why is she questioning me, He didn't learn a lesson from that, he doesn’t look for men or women who have nothing, he exposed everything, he gave a puzzle to some young men about a honey, he had a wife, he had animals, he had done everything, he had gone very far, he had the courage to look God in the face, He has taught us so much that He expects us to be able to deal with them, he knew they hated him, he knows everybody's banana peel, he knows the kind of dead fly that each person cannot resist, he looks for men and women who are great, he never stole, he probably loved his wife too much, He said speak, He said speak to the Rock, he said therefore, he says let those who think they stand be careful, he showed them all the beautiful things, he sold his entire birthrights to his brother for just one plate of food, he succumbed, he told her a lie first, he told them don’t sit in the parlour, he took them to the Palace, he wanted to show off, he was a holy man, He was blinded, he was in an enemy territory, he went on, he will just say you know you love your children too much, he will succumb, he won't come to people directly, he wouldn't do that, he’d say what is the birthright, he’ll know that that's their weak point, he’s always lurking around, Hezekiah was just entertaining them, Hezekiah’s carelessness, his strength of character was weak, history is very important, honey I know you are doing this for the family but I won’t support you in this, How about Hezekiah’s carelessness, How about the anger of Moses, how they allowed little follies, I am truly sorry, I believe that Your son, I didn't have the courage or the strength of God to say no, I extend your age by 15 more years, I greet you too, I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, I know that I have broken your laws, I Love You, I pray that that will not be your portion this morning in the name of Jesus, I pray that those little things that we overlook will not turn round to be our destruction in the name of Jesus, I remember many years ago, I think somebody asked a question, I took you to 40 years journey so that you can change yourself, I want to talk about Adam's inability to say no to his wife, I will say no, I will serve you food free for 10 years, I would go and borrow, I would go and do things just to be able to please people, I'll provide food for you because Jacob knew the significance of the right of the firstborn, I'm just mentioning them, I'm just picking them so that you’ll begin to search yourself, I'm not going to do this, I'm not only going to heal you, I'm not saying we should always say no to our wives, I'm sure Jacob would have been ready to give him anything to say I will be your servant, I've taught you enough, I've worked with you well, I’ve walked with you enough, if he had recognized that offer by his wife as a dead fly, if he was able to say no, if I felt that purpose is not, if I have to wait for you I’ll wait for you, if it had not happened, if people came to me ask me for money, If you don’t Know Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour and would like to accept him into your life as your personal Lord and Saviour, if you look back to history, If you recall if you're in Sunday School, if you recall the story, Imagine if Adam had said no, Imagine if father Abraham had been able to say no, in a man's life when it comes to an end, in fact it was a problem for me, in Genesis 25: 29-34, In Jesus Christ Name, In Jesus Name, In Jesus' name I pray, In Judges 14: 12 – 17, in the Biblical days, In the old days, In those days, inaudible, is a dead fly, is alive, Israel, it can adversely affect his destiny, It cost a lot of money to maintain a website, it destroys the aroma, it destroys the odour, it didn't say a lion or an elephant, it didn't start with Delilah, it is you, it says “Dead flies cause the ointment of the apothecary to send forth a stinking savor, it says it doesn't take big mistakes, it says just as one little dead fly can destroy an oil, it says small, It was a dead fly, it was always a problem, it was because he was unable to say no to his wife when he should have said no, it was just hiding inside, it was just something, it was not the fact that he actually ate the fruit or disobeyed God, it will become the dead fly in their ointment, it won’t be my portion in Jesus name, it's because of act of foolishness, it's important for us to do some introspection so that we don't take the grace of God for granted, it's not everybody that comes to you that you are supposed to say yes to, it's not everybody that comes to you you’ll discuss with, it's not witch, it's not witches, it's one thing for God to kill, it's very nice, it’s not been dealt with, it’s only covered for a while, Jesu, Jesus, Jesus Christ died for my sins, just to emphasize the point that it doesn't have to be a big thing, know those you converse with, lack of self-control, let those who think they stand be careful, let's open our Bible to Ecclesiastes 10: 1, let's see how men, Listen, little things, look, Look at father Abraham also, Look at Moses’ anger, look at these children, Lord, Many of us as Christians, Many people have said yes to people, Many times we are the ones who opened the door to the devil's attack because of our carelessness, many times we say yes to things that we know are not good for them, may be a dead fly that may lead to dire consequences, May GOD, May God Bless Israel, may God give you the grace to send it out in the name of Jesus, May God Make His Face Shine Upon Us, May The Grace The Lord Jesus Christ, may the Lord increase you in grace sir, May The Lord Lift Up His Countenance Upon Us, maybe that extension, men and women of great stature in the scripture, men and women that God worked with, Moses, Moses cried to God, Moses had had the problem of anger from beginning, Moses never committed adultery, Most times we look for the big things, mother Sarah was as typical as to be expected, mummy, my children do this, my maid is here, never did anything, Nigeria, no, no matter how high they've gone will soon come down, no matter how highly placed, no matter how honorable, no matter how precious, no matter how wise they may be, No sooner than God extended his life, Nonetheless a non-profit Christian website, not an act of wickedness, not in a particular order so that it can help us to be able to think of ourselves, not only in your own life, Note that the Bible didn't even say ‘sin’, Now, Now let's just look at a few examples in the scriptures to show us what dead lies can be, now this is a new beginning, Numbers 20: 8 – 12, of course sin is included, Oh, oh my goodness, ointments, Okay, once a fly falls in and dies, one simple innocuous mistake can destroy a man's testimony, one single dead fly, or carelessness, or else they’ll be destroyed by simple things, or foolishness, or for as long as we live, Our children, Part of Christian characters is the ability to stand till the end on your conviction, Pastor Abiodun Akinyemi, people are saying ha, please always attend Sunday School, Please forgive me,

Spirit to help me obey You, Praise God, Praise the living Jesus, Preacher, Pride, Religion and Spirituality, Remember, right from the time that they left Egypt, Salvation Prayers, Samson's real problem, saying no sometimes is an act of love, SECOND, self control in any area of life, Self control in eating, self control in how we pursue money, self control in sex, she gave it to him, she said look, So, so Adam’s not disagreeing was a dead fly, So after discussion, So after telling them the whole story, So all these while you think it's gone, so as to know how to proceed, so doth a little folly him that is in reputation for wisdom and honor”, so he raided the palace, so let you and I who think we stand, so that things that destroy them, so that we can testify even as we stand in the name of Jesus, So that we can walk better with God, so that you can look at yourself, so that's why we need to be careful what we do, so the serpent went to Eve, So therefore, so they went to his wife, So when you're talking about oh, Some children are so spoiled because parents cannot say no, some of them didn't commit big sins, some of us sometimes love to the point of destruction, something that was meant to destroy, something that we just think is casual, sometimes God takes people away, sometimes last week during the Sunday school, sometimes we must have the courage to be able to say no, Sometimes we need to learn to say no, spoil her with love, spoil them with love, stench comes in, Support Our Ministry, take it, Thank God for the grace to be alive, Thank You Jesus, thank you so much again sir for the privilege of standing before God’s people this morning, Thank You Very Much For Your Support, that are capable of affecting our walk with God, that are capable of destroying our testimonies, that brought him crashing, that can affect us, that can have adverse effect on our journey to eternity, That dead fly, that deadly character trait that is still there, that God used, that in 1st Corinthians 10: 11 – 12, that is dead, that is in you, that is likely to lead me into trouble if I don't watch it now, That is why as we begin this new church year, that led him to exile for 40 years, that little act of that inability to say no, that means the slightest act of indiscretion, that no will save us, that period of being lonely should have been enough, that potential dead fly lurking in the corner to bring you down at the highest peak of your glory, that the preacher was making in that scripture, that thing is still there, That untamed lust, that was the basis of his destruction, that was the end, that we’ll look at ourselves, that when he was sick, that won’t be our portion in Jesus name, that won’t be your portion, that's when you will know whether you are really a Christian or not, that’s why some of us have been spreading to those who have been so blessed, the apothecaries were the equivalent of those we refer to today as chemists, the Bible says blessed are those whose sins are covered, The Bible was intentional in using a fly, the chemists, the dead flies that destroyed them will not destroy us also, the devil didn't come, The devil will not come, the devil will not come to you to say go, the enablement, the enemies had come to Delilah to find out, the firstborn of Isaac, the fly is one of the smallest things, The higher you go, the inner of inner, the Israelites, the king of Babylon sent emissaries to come, the little act of follies that can destroy a man's testimony, the man said no, the modern day pharmacists are even more sustainable, the more temptation comes near you, the product of that weakness and descendants of Isaac, the question was whether the grace of God expires, the serpent didn't approach Adam, the serpent introduced Eve to the forbidden tree, the story may have changed, the story would have been different, the thing came out again, the vessels of the king, the woman persisted, the woman pestered him, the woman said tell me the secrets of your strength, then God looks elsewhere, There are people in your life that you need to begin to learn to say no, there are people you don't have to talk with, There are times when you need to be able to stand your ground, There was nobody in the wilderness with him, there will always be a time when God will want to find out what we are, There will be a time that God will be asking you, there's a reason for that, There's something that is in me, they cried onto Moses, they didn't commit adultery, they don't have the motivation to do any work, They guided their oils, They had waited for so long to be blessed with children, they knew the Ten Commandments by hearts, They said ehn ehn, they sold medicines to people, they wanted to kill him, third times, this is just, this man grabbed her, This morning, this one is not a big, this one just got first class, this thing is getting too long, this your God, those chemists that we, those drugstore owners, tiniest, TITLE, to emphasize the point, to Esau, To help us continue in the spreading of The GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST to every corner of this world, to let them know how God had dealt with their forefathers, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward, to tarnish his walk with God, to your spouse, today by the mercies of God, took everybody captive, Uncategorized, United States, very soon the king raided Judah, waiting for a time that he will test it just as many of us are carrying about that deadly habit, was resurrected from the dead, We always say that Samson was destroyed by lust, We can declare that we are people of faith when we are in a safe environment, we can just do it, we can't read now, we need to be careful, We Pray, we pray for long life, we Serve Bless You A Million Times in return, we stand, we succumb, We thank God for what God has been doing in our lives especially in the last church year, we want to share together on a message we’ve titled “Beware of Dead Flies”, we’ll say oh, we’ll see, Well done, what are dead flies, what did He do, What has it got to do with our love, what is my own potential dead fly, What is that thing that's possible, What of Esau's lack of self-control, Whatever it is that can affect our relationship with God, whatever it takes, whatever she wants, when God is fed up, when He has given you plenty of rope, when our faith is not tested, when we are here in Lagos, when you find yourself in a territory that is hostile, who arguably was one of the best presidents of America, who God is using, who people are clapping for, Why, why did you eat it, why do you want to know about this, why don’t you go in to her, you are already announcing everything, you are not bound, you are not obligated, you are now healed, you are still planning a business, you are the one that will deal with it yourself, you can't shut your mouth, You didn't commit adultery, you didn't do anything, you don't wait until the testimony is completed, you find yourself committing crime, you have a testimony, you have allowed what God has given you, you have not committed a sin by thinking of your children, You have not even done what you want to do, you keep boasting, you know God could have Himself brought water from the Rock, you know she’s your wife now, You know the Bible talks about people that God calls ‘children of perdition’, you know the devil is very subtle, you know the story of King Hezekiah in 2nd Kings 20, You know what happened, You know what Hezekiah did, You must be able to insist, you must be able to put down your feet, you need to know where you are coming from, you need to stop this, You remember the story of Bill Clinton, you spoil them that they don't even have the motivation to live, you wonder how that can lead to a man's destruction, you would have thought that he would have learnt the reason why he was in exile, you'll find that so many great men and women have fallen for very simple things, you’d say how can he do this, you’ll put down your feet, You’ll recall also, Your husband is doing something wrong | Leave a comment
