My notes: WORD OF RIGHTEOUSNESS 10 Updated-17.25pm GMT Prayer for Grace: Apostle Osayi begins with a prayer, asking God to grant believers the grace to serve Him acceptably, with “reverence and godly fear” (Hebrews 12:28-29). He highlights the danger of becoming spiritually “careless” or distracted by “frivolities,” urging believers to live intentionally, with their lives fully aligned to God’s will. Consecration and Separation: He calls for a life completely separated for God, explaining that our existence on earth should resonate in eternity, impacting generations and the kingdom. This consecrated life, he says, will “strike a chord in eternity,” creating meaning that extends beyond time. 1. The Judgment Seat of Christ and the Crown of Righteousness Understanding Stefanos: Apostle Osayi introduces the Greek word stefanos, which is translated as “crown” in Revelation 3:11: “Hold fast that which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.” He explains that stefanos refers not just to a royal crown but to a victor’s wreath-a prize awarded to winners in athletic contests. It symbolises a reward for those who have run their spiritual race successfully, representing triumph and faithfulness rather than mere authority. Symbol of Victory: Stefanos reflects a “medal” won in a competition, indicating a life of discipline, endurance, and successful completion of a spiritual journey (see 1 Corinthians 9:24-25). This metaphor reminds believers that the Christian life requires both effort and perseverance. 2. The Incorruptible Crown: Running the Heavenly Race Scriptural Basis: 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 What is the Race? Apostle Osayi describes the Christian life as a “race” that believers must run lawfully and with discipline, aiming to reach the end successfully. In this race, each believer has a “path” set before them by God, designed for them to walk in good works (Ephesians 2:10). Striving Lawfully: To win the incorruptible crown, believers must run according to God’s rules and standards. Not everyone who begins the race will receive this crown-only those who complete it faithfully, striving “lawfully” without cutting corners or seeking shortcuts. Osayi contrasts this spiritual standard with worldly success, warning against human measures like speed, popularity, or material success. “If you’re in the wrong direction, it doesn’t matter how fast you’re running. You’re moving further from God’s will.” Discipline Over Success: Apostle Osayi stresses that striving lawfully is more important than outward signs of success. Believers should focus on obedience, discipline, and purity, rather than worldly indicators like crowd size, influence, or wealth. 3. Spiritual Disciplines Essential for Victory Apostle Osayi identifies three core disciplines needed to win the spiritual race and obtain the incorruptible crown: a. Exercising the Spirit Cultivating Spiritual Sensitivity: To connect with God’s “frequencies,” Osayi teaches the importance of exercising the human spirit through prayer and worship. He describes worship as an act that can only be performed in the spirit, requiring believers to be in tune with God’s will and aligned with His presence (John 4:24). Practical Steps: Regular, dedicated times of prayer and worship build spiritual capacity and enable believers to discern God’s voice. Apostle Osayi compares this to training for a sport, where spiritual “fitness” is needed to overcome the obstacles Satan places along the journey. b. Abstinence from Fleshly Desires Denying the Flesh: Osayi emphasises the necessity of self-denial, particularly in resisting fleshly cravings for comfort, pleasure, or material gain. The flesh, he explains, has a strong desire for immediate gratification, but believers must say “no” to these cravings to stay on track. Illustration: He points out that when our flesh sees something desirable-whether money, food, or status-it automatically wants it. But in the spiritual race, believers must bring their bodies under control, reminding the flesh that it is not in charge. “Your flesh sees, it wants, but you have to remind it who’s in control.” c. Willpower and Self-Discipline Commanding the Body: Apostle Osayi cites Paul’s words, “I keep my body under, and bring it into subjection” (1 Corinthians 9:27), to show the need for willpower in controlling one’s physical desires and habits. This act of “keeping the body under” is a deliberate choice to exercise authority over the flesh and its impulses. Role of the Will: This discipline requires an active, strong will to consistently choose God’s path over self-gratification. The believer’s will must “enthrone” the spirit over the flesh, reinforcing self-discipline every day to stay focused on the eternal goal. 4. Living with the Fear of God Scriptural Basis: 2 Corinthians 7:1, Proverbs 1:7 Fear of God as a Compass: Apostle Osayi highlights the fear of God as a critical aspect of spiritual maturity, describing it as a deep reverence that guides believers away from sin and worldly distractions. This fear, he explains, helps believers stay grounded in God’s priorities, not swayed by human applause or approval. Example of Self-Reflection: Osayi shares a personal experience where he sensed conviction after exaggerating in a sermon, even as people applauded. He explains that the fear of God leads to secret purity-honouring God in heart and conscience, even when no one else is watching. 5. Preparing for the Day of Judgment Internal Discipline and Accountability: Apostle Osayi warns against judging success by external indicators, reminding believers that Christ’s judgment will be based on the purity of one’s heart, the motives behind one’s actions, and faithful obedience to His call. “Shadow Boxing” Warning: He cautions against a life of “shadow boxing” or purposeless striving, where one’s ministry or service appears active but lacks true spiritual substance. Without a clear purpose aligned with God’s will, even well-intentioned efforts can ultimately amount to vanity. Maintaining Focus: Apostle Osayi urges believers to live in daily awareness of Christ’s judgment seat, prioritising spiritual fitness over material success. The goal is not to please men but to hear Christ’s commendation: “Well done, good and faithful servant.” Conclusion and Prayer Prayer for Grace and Alignment: Apostle Osayi ends with a fervent prayer, asking God to help believers stay on course and avoid distractions. He prays that God would direct believers’ hearts toward eternal priorities, delivering them from vanity and keeping them focused on the kingdom. Final Exhortation: With a deep sense of reverence, he urges believers to seek God’s pleasure alone, keeping their affections set “where Christ is seated” (Colossians 3:1-2). He reminds them that a life dedicated to God’s will transcends this earthly realm, bringing honour to the kingdom of God. My Key Takeaways The Meaning of Stefanos: The crown represents a reward for triumph, endurance, and faithfulness in the race of life. It’s more than just a symbol of authority; it’s an eternal reward for a life well-lived. Living with Discipline: Discipline in spirit, abstinence from fleshly desires, and willpower are essential for running the race to completion. Secret Purity: The fear of God and a heart attuned to His values matter more than external success. Eternal Perspective: Daily choices should be guided by the Judgment Seat of Christ, aiming for God’s commendation rather than worldly praise.

I just submitted a form for a business pitch. I put everything here on this altar 🙏🏾 Jesus Christ please do your thing 🙏🏾 Do what pleases you with the business you have given to me🙏🏾 I will come back here and testify in Jesus Name 🥺🙏🏾❤️🔥
Exercising the spirit involves reading the word, believing the word, speaking the word, meditating the word, listening to sermons, preaching it to others
A believer should be secretly pure before God, mercifully kind to others, & righteously strict to himself.
This 👌🏽
It's a mandate we cannot escape
Following from Uganda. I'm edified, God bless you sir

Please define what you mean by exercising your spirit. Is it reading the bible? or doing good works? or praying in tongues?
Exercising the spirit involves reading the word, believing the word, speaking the word, meditating the word, listening to sermons, preaching it to others
When apostle Arome talks about exercising your spirit he refers to praying in tongues continuously, consistently...
