(2026_05_13) - Understanding and Pursuing God’s Plan and Purposes for His Church - Pastor Israel Ajiboye

In this episode, we examined in greater detail the 1988 prophecy concerning a change in the spiritual world, as spoken by Kenneth E. Hagin, and discussed how this prophecy relates to us as Gadites in the present season.Our Pastor emphasized that the measure of love a believer expresses is a reflection of the depth of God’s Word at work within them. Love is not merely an emotion, but evidence of spiritual growth and understanding. In connection with this, we also explored what it truly means to walk in the Spirit. It was explained that walking in the Spirit is not something spooky, but rather a lifestyle that is cultivated through consistent devotion to the Word of God. Practical acts such as forgiving those who offend us are clear expressions of walking in the Spirit.We also spoke extensively about the last days, learning that the matters concerning the end times are spiritual mysteries that require understanding and discernment. It was emphasized that the end of the world and the coming of Jesus Christ is closely tied to the maturity and readiness of the Church.Furthermore, we examined the different levels of the Lord’s coming. First, we discussed the coming of Jesus to the Church, which was described as a work that has been ongoing since the days of the Reformers. This dimension focuses on the salvation of the souls of believers, and its completion signifies the fullness of the Lord’s coming to His Church.The second is the coming for the Church, commonly referred to as the rapture. It was explained that this event is connected to the Church’s spiritual maturity and victory over the spirits in the air.Lastly, we spoke about the coming with the Church, which refers to the Lord’s reign upon the earth together with His saints.Finally, we were reminded of the importance of understanding our responsibilities as Gadites in these last days. As believers, we must continually yield ourselves to learning and walking in the Spirit, allowing the Word of God to transform us until our souls are fully aligned with the purposes of the Lord.
