Message by Prophet Femi Oshin

SCRIPTURE READINGS: Malachi 3:2–4 | Ephesians 5:18–21 | 1 Corinthians 6:19

PART ONE: THE REFINING PROCESS

Can God Look at You and Call You Refined?

Prophet opened the service with a searching question directed at every heart in the room: "Can God look at us and say that we are refined?"

He reminded us that the refining and pruning process of God does not end on this side of eternity. God will only complete His work of refinement the day we enter heaven. None of us, no matter how far we have grown, will ever outgrow the need to be pruned and refined by God while we remain on this earth.

Identifying the Refining Process

One of the clearest signs that you are being refined is the renewal of your mind. A person who is being refined carries a growing Christlikeness — they begin to look, respond, and move more like Jesus. Refinement comes through fire, and honestly, no one naturally enjoys fire. Yet it is through this very process that we are made new.

Prophet challenged each of us to ask ourselves sincerely:

i. Do I genuinely want to be refined?
ii. Am I willing to pay the price that refinement requires?
iii. Will I pray to be refined?
iv. Do I have a picture in my heart of my refined self?

Take Refinement Seriously

Prophet issued a sobering caution: do not take any believer seriously who is not being refined, for the closer we draw to God, the more refined we inevitably become. The two are inseparable.

He also addressed a common misunderstanding meekness is not weakness. True meekness is the expression of genuine power operating through the Holy Spirit.

PRAYER POINTS

1. Holy Spirit, refine me by Your fire and by Your power, in the name of Jesus.
2. Blood of Jesus, refine me, in the name of Jesus.
3. Blood of Jesus, wash my mind, in the name of Jesus.
4. Blood of Jesus, purge my soul, in the name of Jesus.
5. Blood of Jesus, wash my soul of every past trauma, in the name of Jesus.

PART TWO: BEING FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT

Two Commands in One Breath Ephesians 5:18–21

Prophet drew our attention to Ephesians 5:18, which simultaneously commands us not to be drunk with wine and to be filled with the Holy Spirit. The implication is striking: to be drunk with wine is sin, but equally, to not be filled with the Holy Spirit is also sin. Both are commands from God, not suggestions.

How then do we get filled with the Holy Spirit? We ask Him to fill us afresh daily.

A Question Posed: If the Holy Spirit Dwells in Us, Why Must We Keep Asking? 1 Corinthians 6:19

"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is within you, whom you have received as a gift from God, and that you are not your own property?"
1 Corinthians 6:19 (AMP)

This question was raised: if the Holy Spirit already dwells within us, why must we continually ask Him to fill us?

Prophet's answer was clear: the presence of the Holy Spirit within us does not automatically mean we are actively engaging with Him. The Holy Spirit moves and works in us only as we yield to and allow Him. Prophet illustrated this with a practical example if you have a heater in your home but do not switch it on, it does not cease to be a heater. However, it cannot warm the room until it is activated.

The Holy Spirit within us is present to lead, guide, and guard us. The Holy Spirit coming upon us empowers us to carry out the work of ministry to which God has called us. These are two distinct and important operations.

How We Hinder the Holy Spirit

Prophet identified three ways in which we can grieve or restrict the Holy Spirit in our lives:

i. We quench the Holy Spirit by hindering His movement and not yielding to His guidance.
ii. We silence the Holy Spirit by disobeying a clear instruction He gives us.
iii. We grieve the Holy Spirit by choosing to live a sinful life.

A key reason many believers do not seek the Holy Spirit's help is simply this: they do not truly know Him.

Challenge: Set aside time to sit down and list every place and role the Holy Spirit held in the life of Jesus Christ. This exercise will deepen your understanding of and dependence on Him.

*_Purifying fire Message by Prophet Femi Oshin of the Transformers ministry_*

SCRIPTURE READING: Malachi 3:2–4

The Power of Thanksgiving to Unlock God's Mercy

Prophet Oshin ministered on the profound importance of thanksgiving and how a genuine, attentive heart of gratitude can unlock the mercy of God over areas of our lives we may have long overlooked.

To illustrate this, Prophet shared a personal testimony: he spent 21 days worshipping, praising, and thanking God. At the close of that season, a trusted friend called and told him, "God has accepted your thanksgiving." What struck Prophet deeply in that moment was the realisation that not every act of thanksgiving is accepted by God. It is God Himself who determines whether our thanksgiving is received and that should give us great pause.

Thanksgiving Must Be Pure in Heart

Prophet recounted a testimony he heard concerning a man of God who was interceding for someone, yet inwardly grumbling about that very person. God addressed him directly, saying: "Your prayer is accusatory in that manner, you are fulfilling the ministry of Satan, the accuser. Why are you accusing My child before Me?" The man of God repented, and before praying again, he thanked God genuinely for the person. This serves as a powerful reminder that the condition of our hearts in prayer matters deeply to God.

A Personal Test: Paying Attention to God's Goodness

Prophet shared how he tested the quality of his own thanksgiving by praying for each of his children individually, intentionally naming 21 things he was grateful to God for over each child. When he reached his firstborn, he could only recall six. God spoke to him: "It is because you have not been paying attention to My goodness over this child that is why you are now struggling to find it."

This is Prophet's challenge to each of us: daily, intentionally stop and thank God for His goodness by naming it to Him, one by one. God finds genuine pleasure in our sincere thanksgiving.

The Refiner's Fire — Malachi 3:2–4

Prophet also ministered on the refiner's fire, drawing from Malachi 3. He encouraged us to willingly allow God to purge and purify us from the inside out. This work of refinement happens as we position ourselves consistently in the presence of God, allowing His fire to do what it was sent to do.

We often resist this process because we have grown comfortable with who we are. Yet the refining fire is available to us and this is one of the primary reasons Jesus Christ came. If we yield to Him, Christ will refine us completely. A truly refined person is unmistakable: they no longer resemble what they once were. Nothing that has undergone true refinement retains anything of its former impurity there is a total, visible transformation.

God Is More Interested in Our Refinement Than Our Requests

Everything we persistently bring before God in prayer is already available to us. However, God is far more concerned with our being refined and made fit to carry what He has for us than He is with simply granting our requests. We are therefore encouraged to go before God and intentionally ask Him to refine us and He will refine how we think, how we perceive the world around us, and how we move through every sphere of our lives, one by one.

Daily Spiritual Cleansing

Just as a person ought to bathe physically at least once a day, we must approach our spiritual purification with the same daily intentionality. We are not of this world, and we must not take our spiritual life lightly. At times we step into spaces and atmospheres that are spiritually unclean, and without realising it, our spirits can become contaminated. We must therefore make it a consistent practice to cleanse and purify our spirit, soul, and body before the Lord daily.

PRAYER POINTS

1. My spirit, soul, and body, be refined by the blood of Jesus.

2. My mind, my thoughts, and my imagination, be refined by the blood of Jesus.

Thank you, beloved saints, for taking the time to read. May this message stir within us a deeper reverence for thanksgiving and a willingness to be refined and purified daily by the fire of God.

God bless you all.

Message by Dumisane Samkelisiwe Abrahams

Love in All You Do

SCRIPTURE READING: 1 Corinthians 13

Verse Love Must Be the Foundation of All We Do

Drawing from 1 Corinthians 13, the students were ministered to on the vital importance of love being present in everything they do. Anything done without love is not received well by God. No matter how great the effort, the skill, or the achievement if love is absent, it lacks the quality that God values most.

To Have Love in All You Do Is to Have God in All You Do

Dumisane explained that ensuring love is woven into everything we do is, in essence, ensuring that God is present in everything we do. Love and the presence of God are inseparable.

True Love Is Only Possible Through Jesus Christ

Genuine, selfless love the kind described in 1 Corinthians 13 is impossible to produce in our own strength. It is only made accessible through receiving Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, because it is through Him that we receive the Holy Spirit, who is the very Spirit of God and the source of true love within us.

The Pathway to a Life of Love

Dumisane laid out a simple and clear map for the students to follow;

i. Receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.
ii. Receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
iii. Submit to and allow the Holy Spirit to lead you.
iv. Begin to move and act in love, empowered by the Holy Spirit.
v. God will receive all that you do with gladness.

The Example of Daniel

Dumisane revisited the account of Daniel, reminding the students that Daniel’s extraordinary success was not accidental. It was the direct result of his unwavering commitment to God through every circumstance and his faithfulness in his studies. His excellence was rooted in his devotion a powerful example for every student present.

Dumisane closed the session by praying over the students, declaring success, clarity, and the favour of God over each one of them as they prepare for and write their examinations.

Thank you, beloved saints, for taking the time to read. May the love of Christ be evident in all that we do, and may every student step into this exam season rooted in God.

God bless you all.

Greetings, Saints! I pray you are all doing wonderfully and walking in the fullness of God’s grace today.

*Word of the Day:*

“If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love [for others growing out of God’s love for me], then I have become only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal [just an annoying distraction]. And if I have the gift of prophecy [and speak a new message from God to the people], and understand all mysteries, and [possess] all knowledge; and if I have all [sufficient] faith so that I can remove mountains, but do not have love [reaching out to others], I am nothing. If I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it does me no good at all. Love endures with patience and serenity, love is kind and thoughtful, and is not jealous or envious; love does not brag and is not proud or arrogant. It is not rude; it is not self-seeking, it is not provoked [nor overly sensitive and easily angered]; it does not take into account a wrong endured. It does not rejoice at injustice, but rejoices with the truth [when right and truth prevail]. Love bears all things [regardless of what comes], believes all things [looking for the best in each one], hopes all things [remaining steadfast during difficult times], endures all things [without weakening]. Love never fails [it never fades nor ends]. But as for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for the gift of special knowledge, it will pass away.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭13‬:‭1‬-‭8‬ ‭AMP‬‬

Now that is a passage that has the power to stop you in your tracks and ask yourself one honest question *is love the foundation of what I am doing?*

The Apostle Paul, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, lays out something that is as simple as it is profound love is not optional. It is not a bonus feature you add to ministry, to service, to relationships, or to life once everything else is in order. It is the very foundation upon which everything meaningful is built. Without it, the most impressive gift becomes noise. The most sacrificial act becomes empty. The most extraordinary faith becomes hollow. God does not measure the greatness of what we do by its size or its spectacle He measures it by the love that flows through it.

And here is what makes this so liberating Paul is not asking us to manufacture this love out of thin air. He reminds us that our love for others grows out of God’s love for us. You do not have to strain and struggle to love people in your own strength. You simply have to stay connected to the Source. When you are rooted in how deeply and completely God loves you, that love naturally overflows into everything you touch your words, your service, your relationships, your ministry. You cannot pour from an empty vessel, but you can pour freely from one that is constantly being filled by Him.

So today, let this be your gentle check-in with your own heart. Not with condemnation but with clarity. Ask the Holy Spirit to search you, refine you, and let His love be the filter through which every action, every word, and every decision passes. If love is present, move forward with confidence. And if it is absent, that is simply an invitation to pause, return to the Father, and be refilled.

Because love His love, working through you never fails. Everything else may fade. Everything else may come to an end. But love? Love outlasts it all.

Let love lead today, Saints. Let everything you do carry His fingerprint. Be gloriously blessed

Greetings, Saints I pray each one of you is doing well and feeling anchored in the love of God today.

*Word of the Day:*

“He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭91‬:‭15‬ ‭AMP‬‬

Let that settle deep in your spirit. He will answer. Not “He might.” Not “He will consider it.” Not “He will answer if everything is perfect.” He will answer. That is not a suggestion that is a covenant promise from God through king David, and He has never once broken His word.

But there is something intentional tucked inside this promise that is worth paying attention to. This verse is found in Psalm 91 the psalm of one who abides in God, who dwells in the secret place of the Most High. And that word abide carries weight. It is not a casual visit. It is not a Sunday-only arrangement. It is a lifestyle of choosing His presence as your permanent address, the place you return to, the place you are most honest, the place where nothing is hidden and everything is laid bare before Him.

Because here is the truth God does not need your performance. He does not need you polished or perfectly composed before you come to Him. What He desires is your authenticity. The secret place is not a place of religious formality, it is a place of raw, real, unfiltered communion with your Father. It is where you bring your fears without embarrassment, your doubts without shame, your pain without pretense. And it is precisely from that place that place of complete honesty and surrender that He moves on your behalf. It is from there that He dispatches the Holy Spirit to guide your steps, guard your path, and silence every voice that does not align with His truth.

So today, whatever you are carrying, whatever you are facing run to the secret place. Not away from God because things are hard, but toward Him because He is the only one who can truly help. Call on Him. He is already listening. He is already leaning in. And His promise is sure He will answer, He will be with you in the trouble, He will rescue you, and He will honour you.

That is your God. That is your Father. And He is waiting for you.

Stay blessed Saints, and go with God.
