The planter of Christ Apostolic Church (CAC), Boanerges Assembly, Prophet Ade Ologbonyo, has tasked christians to be weary of some factors capable of halting their spiritual growth.
The Prophet also warned that should believers fail to be identify the factors which includes: Spirutual Life, auditing of social and relationship life, they might not experience the desired changes they expect.
Prophet Ologbonyo made this known yesterday at the Quarterly Rain programme of CAC Sheraton Hotel Assembly, Ikeja, Lagos State.
The Cleric, while addressing the congregation, advised that every pious Christians aiming for positive changes must audit their ways of life purposely for divine transformation.
He said, “Life is in phases and season, so it requires auditing at every point if you desire a positive change. Have you ever sit back to audit your life? Have you ever asked yourself the question who am I?”
“Your job, Career or business doesn’t describes who you are. It’s temporary, and can be wiped out by technology anytime”
“To have a positive change begins with identifying who you are, where you are, why you are here(YOUR PURPOSE), where you are going and what you need in order to get there”
Reeling out what to be audited for postive changes, the prophet maintained that Spiritual Life, Rating Financial life, auditing of social, relationship and exposure life, were the factors to x-rayed before aiming for positive change.
“You are a spirit, you have a soul and you live in a body. Your body is not the real you. Your body is where you live. Your human body is the means by which you function on earth.
“Never lose sight of this. The only way a spirit can have an expression on earth is only through an earthly vessel. That is the reason for your human body.
“Audit your spiritual life and rate yourself between score 1-20.
How is my Bible studies life?
How is my prayer life?
How does God speak with me?
What about living a holy life?
How is my meditation and quiet time?
How often is my fellowship with the Holy Spirit and people? Get a pen and a journal then score yourself.
“The second part of your life you will have to audit is your financial life.
“Auditing your financial life is a decision you must make. Leaving it to chance will lead you no where.
Truth be told, if you study your Bible very well, the Bible contains more than five hundred references to prayer and almost five hundred to faith, but there are more than two thousand references to money and possessions.
“Many couples have separated because of their finances. Many brilliant students dropped out of school for lack of money. Vision has been aborted and generation handing over battle to the next generation because some people out of ignorance thought it’s a sin to be financially stable.
On the auditing of social life, the Prophet said, “God has blessed most of us with platforms that ought to bring an end to the prayer point we kept repeating.
He added that: “audit your relationship and exposure life because it is overly imperative.
“Can your spouse pray to God to get married to you if he/she have another opportunity to come back to this planet earth?
If you have a challenge right now, how many people could stand by you?, the renowned Prophet asked.
However, he noted that “If you don’t know where you are going to, someone who knew where he’s going will use you to achieve his goals and probably dump you later”
