Pastor's Desk

FROM THE PASTOR'S DESK:   David Anyaoha, Lead Pastor

God has birthed the Zion Church at this particular time of confusion to blow the trumpet and to warn , recover and save the deceived. In Ephesians 5:11, we read, "And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them."
We believe that leaders are servants in His Vineyard. We are to minister to the sheep and not devour and eat and make merchandise of them. We are to point the sheep to the Lord and not to ourselves.
We don't believe in big titles and names that is designed to shift worship and honor to ourselves.
We must decrease while He increases in our lives and Ministry. We don't believe in the Worship of man but God.
Revelation 19:10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
Revelation 22:9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.

We don't believe in conjuring prayers & miracles. We believe that it is God that decides when and if; where and when for all signs and wonders. (Hebrews 2:4 God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?) . We should not conjure them at will to show off - this is a dreadful sin!

Miracles, Signs and Wonders:

We believe that miracles, signs and wonders should follow all believers. Therefore we should not be running around looking for them. Why? Because some so called Men Of God have presented themselves as the miracle maker and has stopped teaching the truth of the Gospel:
In (Mark 16:15-20), we read, "And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
19 ¶So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen."
Hebrews 2:4 God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?

From the above Scriptures, we are able to establish the following Truths:

1. Every Believer should be able to do the following in the Name of Jesus:
Cast out devils, speak with new tongues, take up serpents, heal the sick, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them.
2. When any believer goes out to win soul, or on a mass evangelism or through crusades / rallies, The Lord will show up to confirm /endorse the Word or the Good News with signs and wonders. This is not reserved for the Apostles only, or the so called men of God that are conjuring these gifts and promises. These Gifts and promises are for all believers.
So, quit chasing after signs , wonders and miracles. Quit running to Ohio, Frederick or to the so called miracle crusades.
Remember that the devil does miracles too: he heals the sick, gives fruit of the womb, speaks in tongues, conducts praise & worship, believes & trembles, preaches, acts holy & walks sanctimoniously, performs signs and wonders...

In Exodus 7:8-12, we read, " ¶And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
9 When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying, Shew a miracle for you: then thou shalt say unto Aaron, Take thy rod, and cast it before Pharaoh, and it shall become a serpent.
10 And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so as the LORD had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
11 Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.
12 For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods."

Notice in verse 12 that God proved Satan's miracle wrong and today we must speak out to prove all false miracles wrong. (but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods).

For example, if God heals (by way of miracles) the paralyzed in a wheelchair, you should see the individual rise up leaping and jumping praising God -Amen! Never to return to the wheel chair - never to be in anguish and excruciating pain as people cheer on and dance around, as they HELP THE HOLY GHOST to finish the work. In many occasions the individual will be worst than before. Then the fake healers will come up with something like, "You did not have enough faith!" They will blame the recipient of Miracle for the failures!But we know that God does not add sorrows to his blessings and miracles.
2 Corinthians 11:13-15 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
Revelation 13:11-14 ¶And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

These so called men of God don't teach these Truths. They teach that people should look up to them for their daily fish, instead of teaching them how to fish. Because of this wickedness, the Lord has decided to use the Zion Recovery Ministries, in times like these, to correct this lie, and recover the deceived.

In Zion, we will not only teach you how to fish, we will give you the already provided Fish Baits, Hook, Line and Sinker! We will teach and equip you to become a great fisherperson. You will then quit running around day after day, month after month, year after year looking for Fish from wrong hands. We will show you how to look unto Jesus, the Author and finisher of our Faith.

Note: The Fish here represents: Healing, Miracles, Signs & Wonders, Breakthroughs, Abundant life, Good health, Covenant blessings etc.
Hence, our Lord and Master Jesus echoed In:
Revelation 22:13-15. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
COME ALONG WITH US! WE ARE MARCHING THROUGH THE GATES INTO THE CITY OF ZION - THE HOLY OF HOLIES. FOR WITHOUT ARE DOGS, FALSE PROPHETS, OCULTIC PEOPLE, SORCERERS, JEZABELS /WHOREMONGERS, HYPOCRITES, MURDERERS...

At Zion, we will show you your root in Jacob / Israel.
And we declare: Numbers 23:23 Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, What hath God wrought!
The birth of The Zion Church is Divine and unique(Gen. 50:20; Rom. 8:28). We are here to stay: (2 Timothy 4:1-5 "¶ I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry").

The Zion Church was birthed by God to do great work of recovery, starting from Maryland & USA. Like Nehemiah, we are here to rebuild the walls of Sound Doctrines. And therefore we have not, and cannot crash! Why? The word of man is grass!   Isaiah 51:12 I, even I, am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die, and of the son of man which shall be made as grass;
1 Peter 1:24 ¶For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:
In that day, the seventy returned rejoicing that the devils /demons were subject to them through the Name of Jesus. But our Master Jesus rebuked them. Why? The danger of paying more attention to miracles, signs & wonders. The Lord was able to give them a revelation message that they will never forget. Let's hear it directly from Jesus:

In Luke 10:17-21, " ¶And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight."

Note: From the above Scriptures, especially verses 20 & 21, we can establish the following Truths:

1. The Angels in Heaven only rejoice, when a name is entered in the Lamb's book of life - the main reason Jesus died on the cross.
2. Miracles, Signs and Wonders are designated authority that ends with this world, while salvation (our names written in Heaven) is eternal.
3. A real born again Christian that is afflicted with all kinds of sicknesses and problems, will still be able to have joy knowing that in a moment, he will be in Heaven with a different (celestial) body - a sickness and worry- proof body.
4. Seeking first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness is always first in God's agenda. If we seek him rather than miracles, He will then give us real miracles, healing, prosperity, breakthrough, fruit of the womb etc. (Matt. 6:33)

Note: Jesus Himself rejoiced and thanked his Father for revealing this mystery to babes while hiding it from the wise and prudent men of this world.
Question: What is this mystery that was revealed, that Jesus was rejoicing about in verse 21?
Answer: Read points 1-4 above.
