Positioned/Pastor Femi Paul/Holy Communion Service

The Word of Grace

Lead Scripture: Genesis 48:13-14, 17-20 (NLT) In today's sermon titled "Positioned," our Senior Pastor, Dr. Femi Paul, illuminated a profound truth: "It is one thing to take a position; it is another thing to be positioned!" Drawing from the tribe of Issachar, demonstraing their understanding signs of the times and knowing the best course (or Best Position) for Israel to take, he emphasized the power of being strategically positioned. Using the scripture reference 1 Chronicles 12:32, he highlighted that their relatives were with them and under their command. This key theme resonates with the Word for the year 2024— those well-positioned are Destined to Win. Now, when God has positioned you, stay in position or stay positioned! Stop bouncing around; else you may just end up in the wrong position. Let's internalize this wisdom. Are we merely taking positions, or are we allowing God to position us strategically for success? The lesson from Tribe of Issachar teaches us the strength found in unity and alignment with God's plan. May we embrace the wisdom of staying in position, rooted in the divine plan for our lives. Let the year 2024 be marked by intentional positioning and steadfast commitment to God's leading.
