Recall a time when an obstacle seemed insurmountable, a dream too distant. I've been there, we've all been there, and today we're diving headfirst into how faith and the word of God can transform such moments. Take Moses, for instance. His struggles with obeying God's commands echo our own hesitations - but we put that to rest, reminding you that no matter the burden, the triumph of Jesus is ours to claim.
We'll also explore the wonders faith and scripture can perform - just listen to the story of how our church acquired a large plot of land! Miracles may seem far-fetched, but they're closer than you think when the Bible is your guide. We've discovered the power in declaring our favorite scriptures aloud and remembering that God is working behind the scenes, even when our aspirations seem far beyond reach.
And it's not just about personal victory. There's power in spiritual unity, in finding a home church. A story from our community shows us how the Holy Spirit guided one of our own through a sudden loss of eyesight - an awe-inspiring testament to the strength we can find in faith. It's time to stand tall, reclaim our spiritual authority, and command our circumstances in His name. We've been given the victory; let's take it.

Good morning, good morning family, good morning, sense. Hey, good morning. Oh my goodness, guess what guys? It's our last Monday of the month. It's the last Monday of the month, November 27, 2023,. Amazing, God is so good. Like we're about to. Very soon we'll be saying happy new year, we'll be entering into the new month. I mean, God has just been so good, God has just been so faithful. Welcome, welcome, welcome. I am your host. My name is Mariam. Welcome to the word become flesh. We're here.
Mariam Kapongo:I hope that you guys are reading your Bible. I mean, you're learning, you're reading, you're learning. I mean, whoa, there's something that I learned this whole month. Honestly, this whole month, God has just been teaching me more about my faith. So that's what I've been just talking on, like just faith and how to grow my faith and how to trust God more and how to just relax and allow Jesus to take care of it. Like, seriously, like we just worry so much but we forgot the victory that we carry, the victory of Jesus overcoming like Jesus already overcome it, like it's now. It's just that now we have to have the process to have our faith, you know, to have faith and to trust in God and just obey in Him and staying in His word and allow His word to become flesh into our life, because His word was already become flesh, because His word, he's already fleshed, like he already. He already become flesh upon flesh. You know, in the beginning was the word. He gave us the word in the beginning and then he gave us the flesh. You know, at first in the New Testament it was the word. You know, people were reading the word, they were learning about God, abraham, all of this, moses, oh my goodness, I learned last night we had a wonderful all-night prayer at my, at our church, at Cornerstone Christian Church of God. Shout out to Cornerstone Christian Church of God. Shout out to my spiritual authority, to my pastor, who is no longer a pastor, he's now an apostle. God has anointing him, has moving him to a brand new level of apostle-like ministry. God is so good. So, and shout out to my mom, my spiritual mom, pastor Ibuku Adil. See, we love you.
Mariam Kapongo:Last night she was preaching fire. Like she, she was preaching the story of Moses, how Moses was very stubborn with God, but then God decided to have mercy, mercy upon Moses, right? So, oh my goodness, it was just like it was a beautiful point the fact that Moses was so stubborn, like God, will give him instruction and he would do instruction on his own flesh instead of doing instruction on the spirit of God, which is, which is crazy, like I don't know. I don't know with you if you guys, I am related to Moses. So when pastor was preaching and I was, like pastor, what are you coming for my life? Why are you coming for my life? Oh God, you know, man, jesus is good. I mean, god is just so merciful. So, like, really, god has really been like.
Mariam Kapongo:This podcast is all about the word become flesh. It's all. It's all about you understanding and see that the word of God, that is already flesh, and see that and show and understand that Jesus, he's already flesh. And therefore, us too, us too, that we have the responsibility to apply the word into our life. We have the responsibility to make the word become flesh into our life, and that's really what God has been really really teaching me.
Mariam Kapongo:My faith, my faith. Like you know, the enemy sometimes will, will, will, will, like, will just fight me, and then I'll be like, and then I'll be like, oh God, why? And I'll be so down and God will be like why are you so down. You know, like how David said in the book of Psalm, why are you so down? Oh my soul, praise him for he is good, praise him for he is wonderful. That's, that's just literally me. The Holy Spirit will tell me why you're so down. Take the word, make it flesh, make it come alive.
Mariam Kapongo:You know, like I've been talking in the book of Hebrew, like you know when you talk about faith, you know where you talk about, faith is a substance of all things, like way it meant your adventure, hey, how Abraham had faith, how, how, how Moses had faith. It just mentioned all these great, great, great one for the New Testament. You know, like they have the word, they did not have flesh. But guess what us us? We have, we have the word, we had flesh and we have the Holy Spirit. Man, we have three, we have three guys, we have three.
Mariam Kapongo:So I want to encourage you this month of November, if you were down, if you were down this month of November, and the enemy has just been been fighting you and say, and then just looking at you, no man, come on, we are sitting on the throne, we are sitting with the king of king, those who sit, those who sit in the heaven, they will have their last laughs. So I want you, this November, if the enemy is been fighting you or have area in your life that the enemy is Be fighting you, I want you to look at the enemy and just laugh at him, just laugh, laugh at him and tell him glory hallelujah, jesus is still rain, glory hallelujah. I will still get up, I'll still back up, no matter the trial that I am facing. It might be November, it might be no, it might be November, might be November and November November 27, november 28, november 29, november 30. Yet hey, guess what? Jesus create the universe in three days. So therefore, whatever trial that you're facing, whatever situation that you're facing, my Brother and sister family I'm not I'm gonna call you family because we are family here, rather family I encourage you to stand up and get up and take the word and take the word and let the word become flesh Onto you, let the word become flesh onto you.
Mariam Kapongo:Pick up that scripture, that Bible scripture that encourage you every day, and speak upon that scripture and and on prophesy, upon that scripture for me, my favorite scripture every day when I am down, when the enemy beat me, when the enemy think that he has overcome over my life. I just look, I look for 18. I said no, no, no. I still have the spirit of the Lord. The Lord is upon me because he is anointing me. He has been wanting me to proclaim good news, to hear the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for. He has sent me to proclaim freedom For and recovering sight of the blind, to set the oppressive free. So, therefore, if I have not preached the word of God, if I have not declared the word of God in my life, therefore I am not down. Therefore, my God has not done with me, because it is not over Until when I meet my king, until I meet him and I hear he said Well done, good and faithful servant. So then, next next scripture that I will pick up, I will pick second Timothy 4, 7, and I'll say for the spirit God has given me it's not a spirit of timid, but he had given me a spirit of power and a spirit of self discipline.
Mariam Kapongo:So I encourage you this month of November, if you're down, if you're down this month of November, I, like God, you have not come through. For me, it is November 26. It is November 27, it is November 30. Remember, Jesus created the universe Three days, so your miracle is still on your way. So I want you to look at the devil and laugh at him and tell him glory, hallelujah, jesus still rain. Jesus has still, has overcome. My father has overcome. He has given me God the father. He has given me God the son. He has given me God the Holy Spirit and he has given me his word. So I have the power over you, devil. I have the power over you, devil. So I want you to stand this month of November. Don't be discouraged. It is not over until when God said it is over in your life.
Mariam Kapongo:So stand up this month of November. November, it is still your best month. Yet it is the end of November, but it's still our best month and we will still leave to see and miracle and we will see signs and wonder. So I encourage you pick up the word, speak the word, read the word, meditate the word, worship him, be grateful. This November, pastor, my, my apostle, my apostle, he's been encouraging us how that this November we just have to be so grateful. You just have to name the things that you are grateful instead of you just sitting there and complain. But be grateful to the king, be grateful to Jesus, say father, it is November, lord, and I'm still breathing because the word of God still have power, because you still stand the hand, father, I am still living this month of November because you are preparing a table before my enemy. This month of November, father, that you are anointing my head with oil, my cup is overflowing. I am a victorious in Christ Jesus. I am a winner because my Jesus, he has overcome all. He has overcome all. He created the universe in three days. Therefore, my miracle, it is coming. It's either. It's November 26. It is coming, November 27 it is coming. I declare my miracle this month of November.
Mariam Kapongo:So, whatever you are believing, god for, stand up, get up and go get your miracle. Oh, because it is not over until when God say it is over, hallelujah. So I encourage you, guys, I encourage, I encourage, encourage, encourage. Pick up the word, meditate on the word. Don't allow the enemy, don't allow the enemy to bomb out your mind, don't allow the enemy to laugh at you. You laugh at the devil. Who, who sit in heaven, laugh. I will sit in heaven and I will laugh. Ha ha, ha, ha ha ha. Devil, I am looking at you. I am laughing at you because my Jesus has not done with me. So encourage yourself.
Mariam Kapongo:This month of November. What are you believing God for? This month of November? What are you believing God? So I want you, I want you to not give up this month of November. Don't I say okay, oh, 2023, oh, I will see, I'll see what God's gonna do 2024. You know I'll sit there. No, no, no, no, no, no. God is a miracle, he is a wonder, he is a miracle working God, he is a good father. If he has spoken that, this 2023, it is your year, there, for 2023, it is not done until when he makes your year. So don't let the devil say mm-hmm, okay, so I start to relax and just wait and to see corner of 2024. No, no, no, no, say Devo, my 2023 has not done because Jesus has not done with me, because my father, he's still overcoming, he is still overcoming, he's still working. My miracle, my miracle is coming. So stand up. I mean, don't be so down, don't be so down. Jesus has not done with you, jesus has not done with me, he's not done yet. He's not done.
Mariam Kapongo:You know, for us, most of the most of the thing, our, our, our ministry, cornerstone Christian Church of God. We have just bought a land. Okay, we have bought a land. God is good and we bought this land. Guys, it was a miracle. It was a miracle that it cannot be explained, but also it was a miracle the faith of the people that we came together. We bought this land in three months, three months time.
Mariam Kapongo:God, a land like a whole, a whole land, a hundred and 153 acre land. Right, so are my? Are apostles being encouraging us? Like, when you're down, tell God, no, god, I have to see this land. And, by the way, the land is called Peniel, which Peniel means God's, god's face. God is face. So I'm so excited for Peniel, because it is a land that he has promised that we will see God's face, that we will see the goodness of God. So, like for us Cornerstone people, when we are down, we remember God, peniel, lord, I'm a see your face, I shall see your face. So I know that it is not over, because Peniel has not. We bought the land, but he has not built yet and, as does, I shall see your face and my generation shall see your face. So, like that I mean encourage yourself, pick up your Bible, read your Bible.
Mariam Kapongo:Read it because the the, because the word is already flashed. It's already flashed, the word has become flashed, but we have the responsibility to make the word of God become flesh. That's where God was speaking to me. It was like Mary, I'm your faith, your faith, your faith. You know, the devil will, I will be, I'll be like I don't know what I this.
Mariam Kapongo:This November, the devil has been just like. You know. He been slapping my like. God is so good. Okay, this month of November, the devil been slapping my face. You know how you get slapped one side and the other side. The Holy Spirit would just pick me up. The Holy Spirit would just pick me up, guys, and really he will bring me to the book of Hebrew. Well, honestly, I'm just going to open my Bible. I feel like I need to memorize that Bible scripture because to the book of Hebrew, read this scripture, because this is where this is, where you're like. God has been just fighting me and I want to read. I want to read with us. I want to read with you, with us, and we will get back into it Right Now.
Mariam Kapongo:Faith is a confidence of what we hope for and insurance about what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commanding for. By faith, we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. So it is actually a long, a long, a long version. Okay, so I am in names, all the all, our Father of grace, faith by faith, able. But, god, I encourage you, go read the whole book of Hebrew, 11. Because this is where the Holy Spirit really really been and this, okay, yeah. So I encourage you to just spend time on, on, on building up your faith, on building up your faith.
Mariam Kapongo:I mean, what thing, what one of the mystery that God's been really opening up for me in the book of Hebrew? It's the fact that back in the New Testament, abraham, all of these that they name, as I say, they just, they just had they, they just had, they had the word, but they did not have the flesh. But they had the word back then, but they didn't have the flesh. As Jesus, as God was, okay, you know, like, as God was saying already, send all these wonderful. He's. Like you know what? Now I want to connect, I want to connect with my people, I want to connect with them. So he sent Jesus to be flesh, to become flesh, so we can relate it to him. So, therefore, that Jesus became, became the word, became flesh, the word became flesh. You know Abraham and them. Back then they were reading the word and you know there were some of them. They had an encounter with God, but they, they did not have an encounter with the Son of God, right?
Mariam Kapongo:So we have the privilege of having the word and of having Jesus and of having the Holy Spirit. It is a privilege three. So that means we have God the Father, god the Son and God the Holy Spirit. And God the Father and God the Son and God the Holy Spirit has put one amazing book for us. He has put in one amazing book for us, for us to be encouraged, for us to, for him to show to us, to give us an understanding that, my children, that you have more power than you think, the more power than you think. I mean.
Mariam Kapongo:Sometimes we allow the devil to, to think that he has so much authority over our life when he doesn't. When the devil, he's a bug. He's literally a bug that you can step on. But you can step him. You can step him as a bug. Only by you meditate on the word of God, only by you listening to the word of God, only by you allowing the word of God to become flesh into your life, and that's when you can put the devil under your feet and say you have no power. But the devil will give you this big, this big picture of you. Know, I have more authority over you. No, he doesn't have authority. You have authority over him. You have authority.
Mariam Kapongo:And the greatest power of authority that we have as a children of God is the word of God. It's when we take the word of God and then you confess in your mouth and you believe it, and that's when you build your faith. Faith is a substance of things that you do not see but hope. You might say, ah, how can I trust this Jesus, the Jesus that I never see, the Jesus I don't even know? He's true. It is by building faith, and it's by building relationship, and it's by you picking up the word and and just and just read, and just read the word. I'm telling you, I'm telling you that Jesus is real, that Jesus is real. So there is, there is power in the name of Jesus. There is power when you just sit there and then you just trust him and you allow him to work through you and you allow him to work through your mind, whatever mind, whatever anxiety that you have.
Mariam Kapongo:Do you know the Bible? Said the Bible the? Do you know the? The Word of God? Tell us it. Did not tell us to sit down and worry. It tell us to pick up the word and pray. If you have ancients mind, if your thoughts are ancients, you know what does the Bible say. It say pick up the word and pick up, pray, pray. And how do you pray, pray, come through the word, pray, come through through the word. Once you have the Word of God in you, once you have the word, that the word, the word of God is inside of you, you pray, you'll start making declaration, you start picking up the word and start making up their declaration, and that's how you are developing your faith as a child of God.
Mariam Kapongo:So therefore, I want to tell you, my brother, my sister, that this November, do not allow the enemy take authority, do not allow the enemy laugh at you and say hey, look, november is here. Do I have Jesus as done for you, my friend, the fact that you still have breath, the fact that you're breathing. That is something that he have done. So this month of November, I want us to enter the. I want us to end November with the spirit of gratefulness, with the spirit of thankfulness. Just, it is just thank him. Thank him, enter his gift with thanksgiving and his court repraise. Father, I praise you. You have been so good, you you have given, you have given me good health. And, by the way, this month of November, also one thing the enemy tried for my life. The enemy came from my life. He was trying to make me blind, fully, fully, fully blind. So I had to be rushed in emergency. I have to be, I have to be rushing the hospital. And that was. And I was just sitting there in the hospital. I want to thank God he as I went through this.
Mariam Kapongo:I was, I did not go through alone, I went with a friend and the friend was there. From from the time that my eyesight just almost some loose, loose sight, almost like can you imagine that? That when your eyesight is just it, just out of nowhere, it just want to react, because that's how the devil is to just disturb in your mind? So as I was sitting there holding my eyes and I was just making the correction and I said God, I tap upon the upon, on the anointing of a parcel, emmanuel, adios, lord, that it is well with me. Because most of the time when that, like when you have trouble, when you have a problem and then you go, I usually go to my, to a puzzle, a puzzle, emmanuel, he would just tell me it is well with me. So I was stop making the commission on my eyes. I now say God, as a puzzle, always say I declare that it is well with me, it is well with my eyes, it is well with my health.
Mariam Kapongo:You know, I was just stop making the decleric and I was just making the correction about my situation. And I just start, and, and the word literally become flesh. And when the doctor saw me, when the doctor saw me, miracle, miracle, there was nothing wrong with my eyes. But I promise y'all, and when I was out with a friend, I promise, my eyes was really reacting like I couldn't see, like, and the worst part is I was driving. I was driving and all the sudden I tell my friend yo, I can't see, I can't see, I can't see. She's like what do you mean? You can't see and you're driving and I said I cannot see. And oh, by the way, I was wearing contact lens, so my contact lens literally, literally slits, they slept. Then they slept out of my eyes, yeah, I guess.
Mariam Kapongo:So, while driving, and so she start giving me direction and and this, and I was making my way to go to church, to go to leaders, prayers, and the enemy, just you know, just wanted you know, the devil just know how to throw himself in, to just show you hey, I have control over your life. No, devil, you don't. So therefore, laugh at the enemy, tell the devil glory hallelujah, my god is still rain. Glory hallelujah, jesus has already overcome it. So, whatever that you are bringing on my way, just know that God has already overcome.
Mariam Kapongo:So, this month of November, I want to encourage you. It's the last month of November. I just want to encourage you and know that the Lord has already overcome, that your miracle is coming. Put your faith in the word, trust the word, declare the word prophecy upon yourself, brush yourself, put some dancing shoes on, put some worship music, put some praise music and give Jesus praise because God is still good, because God is the one that he still have control over our life. Hallelujah, amen, amen, amen. So, yeah, that God is so good.
Mariam Kapongo:This is not actually the message that I prepared for you guys today, but I just feel of the Holy Spirit just took me over in that direction and you obey the Holy Spirit when he take you to a, to a different, to a different route. So I guess then the next message, it will, it will follow up, but anyways. So I encourage you, let the Word of God become flesh into your life. Pick up the Word of God, declare the Word of God. Also, I, I'm gonna, I want to make declaration over you and the book of Ephesians. I got this, I got this from from my prayer wall and I thought it was so beautiful to make a declaration over the word become flesh podcast, and also to. I saw it on Instagram and I was like, oh my goodness, so we're gonna make declaration upon this Bible, upon this verse, upon the scripture, before we go right. Amen, amen. So it is Ephesians 3 20. So Ephesians 3 20, I declare. I declare Ephesians 3 20 over my life.
Mariam Kapongo:God will do exceedingly, abundantly. Above all, that I ask, or think, because I honor him, hmm, honor him so when, when he talks about honor God, I want you to honor. This is where our thanksgiving and our praise it's coming. When we honor him is through our thanksgiving, you know, because the Lord multiply while you are thankful. So, honor the Lord this month of November, take, take a moment to honor him with your praise, to honor him with your worship, to honor him with your prayers, whatever channel of grace that works for you. Honor him with your meditation, meditate on the word of God. Okay, his blessing will chase me down and overtake me. I will be in the right place at the right time. You are in the right place. You are in the right time.
Mariam Kapongo:The devil it is not. He is not in your in snag in your camp. Therefore, go back to the enemy camp. Still, everything that the Lord has promised you that this 2023, when God has spoke to USA, 2023, this is the miracle that you're gonna see. So go on the devil and go on the devil camp and take back everything that it belongs to you, because 2023 it is not over, baby, until when God said it is over. So you still have time to grab that your miracle. Go to the enemies camp and took back everything that he has stole for you for this 2023.
Mariam Kapongo:So what did you believe God for 2023? So I want you to go back and take back what he is stolen from you. Amen, amen. I will be in the right place and at the right time. People will go out their ways to to be good to me. I am surrounded by God's favor and this is my declaration of the year of the month of November.
Mariam Kapongo:All right, position yourself, go back to the enemy camp and take back everything that the enemy has told him for you. Take him back because, guess what? The devil doesn't have no authority over you, no authority over your life. We have authority. We are the children of God. Therefore, we have authority. Is it's even he's poking into, into the word of God that we have authority.
Mariam Kapongo:So I encourage you, go back and take and take the word, the word in the scripture. The word is the Bible. Take, take a Bible, a Bible verse that you truly, truly stand every day, on every day. What if your Bible, your favorite scripture, is John 3 16 for God, so love the word. Declare on yourself for God, so love the word. I am the word that Lord. Love me, you know. Make wonderful declaration, make the declaration of your family, make the declaration of your job and speak upon you. Speak life, because guess what? The also the word of God encourage us that life and death is in the power of the tongue. So therefore, prophesy life, prophesy life over your life, prophesy love life over this month of November.
Mariam Kapongo:It is not the month of being discouraged. Pick up and speak life, peace, big life a month. Encourage, speak life. Grab your favorite Bible scripture, if it's a vision, 320.
Mariam Kapongo:Make declaration and be blessed as this November, as the Lord is still working wonder, because you are a wonder. We are wonder that the Lord is going to do wonder. The Lord is turning his turning things around for us. He's turning things around for his children. He's turning things around because we are his soldier. So the Lord, he's fighting our battle, he is fighting our world. So be remember that I am a child of God, I am a child of the most of king of king. So therefore my father is royalty. Therefore, I declare royalty over my life. How many? How many men I mean? Isn't it God so good? He is good like the. God is good all the time of our life. God is so good, he's so good over our life. I want you to walk into God's presence with of great Thanksgiving and praise and just to honor him, oh amen, and just walk with God, the father, and walk with God, the son and God. Walk with God, the Holy Spirit, and walk with his word, meditate on his word.
Mariam Kapongo:The Bible said that you this book. It shall be, meditated on it day and night. We shall be the one that made it in the word of God, day and night, and everything that it says will be careful to do right day and night. We shall meditate the word of God day and night. Make, make the word of God become flesh into your life, day and nights. So, this month of November, don't be discouraged. Don't be discouraged because the Lord has not done with you yet. The Lord has not done with you yet. The Lord is still working your miracle. What miracle are you believing God for? What is the miracle that you are believing God for? So do not give up. If he can create the universe in in three days, your miracle it's on this way. So God bless you. Thank you for listening.
Mariam Kapongo:The word become flesh. I encourage you. If you're listening to this and you are new to the family, you're like what voice did I just hear? What voice did I just hear here, the word become flesh. We are here every first Monday of the month and every last Monday of the month and also, too, I just want to welcome you.
Mariam Kapongo:If you are not, if you are not born again, I want to encourage you. If you are not born again, and then you're like, I'm so confused. Who she's talking about? Who is this Jesus? Who is this God, the Father and God, the Son? Who is he? Who was she talking about? This is so confusing. So the word become flesh. We're all standing on the Word of God and we're standing on Jesus, that he is the Lord, he is the King of King, he is God, he is Jesus and he is the Holy Spirit, he is the Trinity. So if you do not know that, hey, the word become flesh. It is for you, it's for you, it's for everybody that you know. To encourage us and learning about the Bible. I don't have all figured out. I don't have all figured out. I am still learning the word too. I am still learning the word too, as all of you, we are learning the word together, as a family.
Mariam Kapongo:So I want to encourage you if you haven't given your life to Christ, and also if you haven't given your life to Christ and also to you, having gone back to church, because your experienced church hurt, your experienced church pain. I want to encourage you Go back to church, find yourself another home church, ask the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit, give me guidance, there are so. There's so much good, wonderful church out there. There are so much good, wonderful church out there. But this life of Christianity, it is not a life that we do alone. We don't do it alone. Right, and also, too, you have to remember, if you're, you declare that you're child of God. You have to remember that Jesus command us to not, do not forsake the gathering of the saints, that we shall not forget the gathering of the saints. So therefore, we need, we need to fellowship with our brothers and sister.
Mariam Kapongo:So, if you've been currently in a church and the church hurt you and the church traumatize you, it is okay for you to find another church. It is okay for you to ask God for direction and ask God, lord, and then, if God is asking you, forgive and submit, because as children of God, we all have to submit under authority. Okay, because even Jesus was under authority. Do you guys know that Jesus was under authority? He was under the authority of God. So therefore, he submits. So, therefore, that we have to submit and be under spiritual authority, so you have to be under spiritual authority, you have to be cover.
Mariam Kapongo:So, therefore, if you've been in a church before and the church hurt you and the church abuse you, which is not right, very soon I'm telling you, my testimony will come, based on my church experience, on church experience, because I've been there, I've been there where you, just you just feel like you were let down by a church, a church that you give so much, you give so much of your time, you give so much of your sacrifice, but that doesn't give us permission of us to be in an isolated moment. So I encourage you to find another church and join another church, join another body of Christ and be covered under spiritual authority. So if you said, ah, man, I don't know, I don't know churches in Edmonton, I want to encourage you come and join me at Connaughton Christian Church of God. It's here in Edmonton. You can. You can join us online, you can join us in person. You're very welcome in whatever direction that Jesus leads you. So I invite you to come and join. And there's other way really wonderful, great church here to Edmonton, right.
Mariam Kapongo:So, but allow the Holy Spirit to lead you to your church, because for me, how I got into Connaughton, it was actually lead by God. It was actually ordained by God. My step, they were ordained by God for me to be in Connaughton. So just ask the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is wonderful, he will lead you, he will, he will direct you. He will direct you which way to go. So depend on the Holy Spirit. Amen, because that is the job of the Holy Spirit. He's our helper and he will help you. He will definitely help you.
Mariam Kapongo:So, yeah, so I'm speaking about the people that you used to be in church. But now you don't mess up with church. I'm encouraging you get back, get back to church, get back to church, get back to church, get back with the community of Christ. You know we fight better. We fight better when we're one, when we're unity. You're not going to fight this fight alone. The more alone that you are, the more vulnerable that you are giving the enemy permission to come and come over your life. But once you have spiritual cover and you have leadership cover and you have brothers and sisters that connect, that they're praying with you, it's wonderful and they encourage you when you're down.
Mariam Kapongo:So get back, get back to church. Don't give up on God, because God has not given up on you. The fact that I'm saying that he is not giving up on you if he gave me the vision and the mindset for me to do this. The word become flesh. Instruction of me to do the word become flesh is because he still have a heart. He still have heart for His souls and he still have heart for many, many, many, many people that they want to give up on Him and that they don't understand the word of God. God wants you to make the word become flesh into your life. He literally wants you to take the word and let the word become flesh and work through your faith and have understanding of your faith.
Mariam Kapongo:So I really definitely encourage you to come back to church, come back to Christ and if you are new, you don't know Jesus. You want to know Him as your personal and Lord and Savior. Just say this prayer with me and say Dear Lord Jesus, I acknowledge you that you are the Son of God. I want to know you more. I want to understand who you are. Lord Jesus, save my soul, save my soul, mold me, make me clean again. I want to trust in you In Jesus' name, amen. So if you have saved that simple prayer and then you're like I need help, I need help to have a relationship with Christ, know that we're here. We're here for you. And if you don't know, you don't have a home church, I encourage you to come and join Cornerstone Christian Church of God. Or also, too, you can go on Instagram.
