THE POWER OF CHOICE

Mr. and Mrs. Opanyi Bril

THE POWER OF CHOICE

Over the past 28 years I have come to a point of saying I am who I am, because of the choice I have made. Your life is just where it is not because someone forced it there but because you pushed it that direction by the number of choices you made whether negative or positive.

When I was a teenager life denied me opportunity to be happy. It was like Pandora box was opened for me. I was totally squeezed to a tight corner in everything pertaining life. As a child I grew up in the hands of one step mother to another one where everything was left to chance.

Life indeed became a big struggle. One remarkable U-Turn of my life was on the evening of 23^rd June 2001 when I gave my life to Jesus Christ as my Lord and savior. My family being a Catholic stronghold, being Born Again was the number one hard decision I had to make.

In Genesis 12 when God called Abram, it was left to Abram to agree or disagree with what God said. The choice Abram made changed his identity from Abram to Abraham. And in Genesis 21 it gave him a son of the promise. He is also considered the greatest intercessor that ever lived on earth. (Genesis 18:16-33).

Abraham became the father of many Nations not because of anything else but it was because of the choice he made to obey God’s voice. I love this wonderful statement that came from the mouth of God to Abraham “… I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward” Genesis 15:1 NKJV. Hey this did not just happen out of the blue. It took an obedient ear of father Abraham to hearken to God’s voice. Abraham was an ordinary man from a background of idol worship but at 75 God called him out of his background, fears, and kindred and out of his comfort zone so as to make him great. If God is to make you great in this world, He will always inconvenience you out of your comfort zone so as to organize you for greatness.

Most of the tears, regrets, disappointments and tragedies that we face today is a result of the choices we made in life. In the middle of that fire and storm of life you are going through, if you choose to listen to God you will always make a right choice.

When I was a teenager, time came when I got tired of what I was going through in the hands of my step mother. I was this young quiet and humble boy but the day before I got saved, I had this crazy plan of having my step mother hurt but surprisingly as I was sleeping that afternoon in my room I heard a voice call me three times “Emma, Emma, Emma” I got shocked because when I checked around the house there was no one at home. So when I sat on the chair I had a voice tell me ‘go to where you are hearing that sound’ only to reach there it was a gospel crusade and it was time for altar call. Immediately I found my two hands up and I gave my life to Christ that day. Remember after getting saved I found out that this was the last day of the crusade but today I have lived to see every single word come true that the preacher in that crusade spoke over me.

I want to speak to you reading this “it doesn’t matter how many wrong choices you have made in life that has brought your life to where it is now. It is not too late to make a U-turn back to where you turned wrong so that you can turn right”. And this is what the Lord God who has loved you says: "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you. For I am the LORD your God, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I gave Egypt for your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba in your place. Since you were precious in My sight, You have been honored, And I have loved you.. ‘’ Isaiah 43:1-4 NKJV

If I may ask the married people who are reading this article now, When God first spoke to you about your spouse did you say yes there and then? Many of you first said no because you had a cautious approach wondering whether what you were going to decide was right or wrong. 75% of the couples I have come across through counseling and prayer engagements have always made such a statement as this: “after ten years of our marriage I am grateful for having made this choice of a man for a husband or woman for a wife”. This is what I call the power of choice. The result of making the right choice.

THINGS YOU NEED IN ORDER TO MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE

For you to make the right choice in life there are qualities that you have to develop

1. You must develop a heart of obedience. Earlier on we looked at Abraham and when you go through his history, he is a man who obeyed God. For you to reach a desired place of your destiny, you must be obedient to God and to your spiritual and physical parents. Genesis 26:5.

2. You must have Faith.

When it comes to making choices in life, the level of one’s faith or lack of faith is paramount. Abraham’s success depended first on obedience to God and then Faith. That is why he is referred to us the father of Faith. Matthew 17: 20 says that ‘if you have Faith as small as a mustard seed nothing shall be impossible unto you’. as a Christain, don’t allow circumstances to attack your faith like it happened to Peter who looked at the wind with fear. That’s why Jesus said in Luke 21:26 that ‘Men’s hearts shall fail them for fear’. Proverbs 24:10 Living Bible says: “You are a poor specimen if you can’t stand the pressure of adversity”

The right choice must be made at that critical moment. You will need faith to enable you make it.

3. Divine Wisdom

After looking at obedience to God and walking in Faith as a requirement for making the right choices in life, applying divine wisdom will also enable you to always make the right choices in life.

Proverbs 1:5 says: ‘A wise man will hear and increase learning’

Proverbs 4:5-9 5 ‘Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth. Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee. Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her. She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.’

The great men and women who are successful in life are people who made right choices. And how did they succeed? They applied wisdom through their toughest life journeys. In verses 6 of Proverbs chapter 4 it says: forsake not wisdom, and she shall preserve you, love her and she shall keep you’. This means that thought it’s not easy to make the right choices in life due to the fighting forces around us, when we get wisdom we will be preserved and kept. I remember before I got married I went through some relationship challenges and my Spiritual parents sat me down one by one and spoke to me words of wisdom that will never leave me. I remember Pastor George telling me this simple words but with power in them ‘Emma its time you concentrated on seeking God’. These words may not be enough to help some people due to their inability to discern when God is behind a word spoken by someone.

3. Utilize the blessing of Spiritual parents.

In order to make right choices in life, the aspect of spiritual fatherhood is paramount. Many of the errors we see in life today even among renown men and women of God lies under one simple question. Where were they natured spiritually? (Who is their spiritual Leader?) When you sit under your spiritual leader for some good time, because you are under a spiritual cover of that leader you will find yourself making the right choice or decision. Every spiritual leader has got a specific divine definition. For example at VCCM when it comes to marriages and finance you can’t struggle. That is why people who come to VCCM are blessed with marriage and finance. I myself I am a big testimony of being under VCCM. I come from a polygamous setting where no one has ever married ceremonially and the same with my wife and as a matter of fact these polygamous forces from our foundation tried to fight us but what made us prevail over those forces is the spiritual cover under which we serve. Friend, when you humble under your spiritual leader automatically no one will need to tell you to learn the word. Why? Because right spiritual leaders give right spiritual food to their children. Utilize the spiritual cover under which God has put you. One thing I cannot forget is all the success and progress I have attained in life is because of being under the right spiritual parents.

Finally, I want you to know that for one to make the right choice in life, one has to be obedient, walk in divine wisdom, have faith in God and utilize the value of Spiritual parents. However for you to attain the above you must take the word of God keenly. May God help you make the right choices in life that will pave the way for your greatness. And may this be the year that you will start afresh in whatever you do and in a big way.

May God bless you

Over the years, we have seen and heard Pr. Chris preach the true gospel . the gospel that carries life. Last week in one of our letters we recieved a letter from Benjamin through the google reader and google Buzz. And below is the letter: WHY HE IS CALLED THE YOUNGEST RADICAL EVANGELISTIC PREACHER AND WRITER From the records of the few preachers and writers, Mr. Bril Emmanuel Opanyi Born in 1985 is found to be the youngest Radical preacher and writer. Bril is a Kenyan Citizen and also a Ugandan Citizen by Birth. After a divine call of God upon his life in 2001 God greatly begun to use him in the arena of miracle healings. In one of his statements Bril said that one day Napoleon stood up and said' An opportunity will dance with you only if it finds you on the dancing floor.' indicating that all our communities need is not condemning them but showing them the way, Truth and life through the Gospel. Over the seven years of internet ministry Bril Emma has reached over 20million people across the globe. Many are getting saved, transformed and empowered. Young people are turning to the Lord, we have seen Miracles happen through prayers. Bril believes in showing Nations the way to attaining personal deliverance. However, inspite of all God has used Bril to do , He is not a Church Pastor but a minister at Victory Church Of Christ Ministries in Kampala Uganda.

OUR GREAT COMMISSION

And Jesus said:
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Not forgetting the main cause that brought Jesus which is stated in John 3:16-17

God has called us and entrusted us with His message of Love and Healing to the Hurting World. We believe in the Trinity and we also believe in the seconding coming of Jesus Christ.
We have seen God again and again proof Himself true to His word. For He said i will be with you.

We are in the end times when Revival is hitting the world. Many are turning to God. Miraculous Healing are occurring, and the word is become life to men both young and old.

OUR BELIEFS ABOUT PRAYERS

We believe that prayer is one of the most potent weapons available to a believer.
We believe that God is still in the business of answering prayers and that through fervent and travailing prayers, God could perform the uncommon and the unbelievable.
We believe that every prayer is to be made to the Father, through the name of His dear Son Jesus Christ as directed and empowered by the Holy Spirit.

TOGETHER WITH LOVE AND CONCERN WE CAN STOP CHILD LABOUR AND ABUSE**** Report Child Abuse.

(CNN) -- As many as 225,000 children in Haiti live and work as unpaid domestic servants, the first study to closely examine the issue concluded. The existence of these arrangements are not new, but the scope is larger than previously thought, a new study by the Pan American Development Foundation found. The foundation conducted the largest field survey of human rights violations in Haiti. Known as restaveks, these extremely poor children are sent by their families to other homes. "In principle, parental placement of a restavek child involves turning over child-rearing responsibility to another household in exchange for the child's unpaid domestic service," the study says. Helping Haiti's child slaves . The majority, two-thirds, of restaveks are female, and all are prone to abuse and rape by their host families, the study says. The movement of the children is from poor homes to less poor homes, sometimes within the same family. In addition to boarding, families often send their children to become restaveks because of schooling opportunities in their new homes. To determine how widespread this practice is, the foundation conducted 1,458 door-to-door surveys in some of the more troubled neighborhoods in Haiti, the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere. According to the U.N. Office for the Special Envoy for Haiti, unemployment reaches 70 percent nationally and 78 percent of Haitians live on less than $2 a day. Given the dire economic condition, child trafficking and organized violence has been a problem in Haiti. The study's aim was to answer the question: "What is the scale of the victimization?" What researchers found was that 22 percent of children surveyed were living away from home, and that 30 percent of households had restavek children. Using census projections for 2010, the study extrapolated that as many as 225,000 children in Haiti's urban areas could be living as restaveks. The recruitment of such children is "intimately linked" with poverty, said the study, which recommended that the government and foreign aid be used in poverty alleviation programs and more widely available education services, especially in rural areas. The placement of restavek children has traditionally been a movement from rural Haiti to urban areas. Another key find to the study is that they are increasingly coming from other urban areas, the study found. In many cases, children are placed in homes of relatives, but kinship ties did not guarantee better treatment, according to the study. Due to an increase in child Labour in Africa, BRILEMMA WORLD FOUNDATION come up and has been in operation since 2004 with the Aim of fighting Child Abuse in Africa.

THE NEEDY TOO ARE PEOPLE HELP THEM OUT OF THAT NEED FOR THEY ARE TOMORROWS FUTURE

Thursday, August 30, 2007. Follow the Pictures Closely, Everyday, in Africa, Sudan, one of the poorest countries in the world. The war that happens there spoils lives-kills children. People, I want you to think this is you or even one of your family member or even your only Child who is at the climax of such a more worst condition would you still sit and relax?-look at the pictures-this is Africa! Open your eyes, wide, what do you see? Starving kids, mal-nutrited children, dying dreams? These pictures are not meant to intimidate you, or make you feel bad. They are just meant to show you the situation as it is. THESE KIDS NEEDS HELP! Digg this story, make it popular!!! Looking back in Northern Uganda for the last 15years Children and helpless people had to suffer the rough torture from the LRA Rebels. Today many children are hurt due to the rap, torture, forced labour and unwanted marriages that have caused unwanted pregnancies. Looking at all that has happened and that is still happening in Africa it really shows that its time for Africa to fall back into the hands of Jesus Christ so that Africa can be redeemed from evil powers holding it. Remember every human problem has a divine solution and that’s Jesus. In 2005, God gave me a burden of helping young children, youths and suffering mothers. And in the very year I began up YOUR DAILY VICTORY INTERNET OUTREACH in conjunction with BRILEMMA WORLD FOUNDATION to enable me and the entire team to reach the Hurting world (to those echoing voices of HELP! HELP! HELP1). At a single moment in Africa I can’t withstand the alarm of the starving, oppressed, overworked, raped and violated children coming into my ears. Let’s rise up and do something. NOTE: we are not here to make money we are here to HELP1 Do you feel the same like we do then join us and help meet the needs of our own people. MY PLEA To all well wishers, Donors Organizations and individual who would like to help reach the Hurting World and the un- reached suffering population please we do welcome your support. BRILEMMA WORLD FOUNDATION welcomes you greatly.
