Some Things to Note from God’s Generals
(Summarized from the book of Roberts Liardon ‘God’s general’) By Apostle Paul Johnson Asamoah
John Wycliffe’s Early Years
John Wycliffe was born in Yorkshire, England, around 1330. Little is known of his childhood and young adult years until 1360 when he entered Balliol College in oxford, England. The life of Wycliffe comes alive for us as he reaches the age of thirty and begins his life as a great reformer before the actual reformation.
• Wycliffe fought for the common people and identified with their right to know God in a personal and intimate way.
• While some turned to the answers of men, Wycliffe turned to the bible, where he discovered an unshakable foundation.
• Wycliffe thought that the bible could be safely placed in the hands of even ignorant people.

George Whitefield
George Whitefield was known as the great orator, the divine dramatist and the heavenly comet. He was born to innkeepers in the cosmopolitan city of Gloucester, England, on December 16, 1714. He was the youngest of Thomas and Elizabeth's seven children.
• As a leader Whitefield spoke softly to his people and all who came to listen to the word of God.
• George took the open streets because church buildings were too confining ( he was interested in the ability to win more souls to God in the most appropriate way), George said ‘’now I know that the Lord calls me to the fields, for no house or street is large enough to contain the people who come to hear the word of God’’
• Nothing stopped George Whitefield from preaching at every opportunity.
• George would push himself to his physical limits to deliver the bread of life to the hungry masses that, with equal determination, had made a long and dusty trek on horseback to hear him preach.

Jonathan Edwards
Jonathan Edwards is the most complex and therefore the most misunderstood of all the revivalists. Born the same year as John Wesley, Edwards was the son of a puritan minister and almost considered nobility in colonial New England. Edwards was born on October 5, 1703 in East Windsor, Connecticut to puritan parents, timothy Edwards and Esther Stoddard Edwards.

• Jonathan spoke often about God to the other boys his age, and together they built a place in the woods where they could pray.
• Jonathan would spend his entire life pursuing God’s truth with obsessive discipline.
• Jonathan was not a passive reader, he read with a view to solving problems.
• Jonathan wasted no time in furthering the progress gained

Francis Asbury
Francis Asbury was born on August 20, 1745, in Hamstead Bridge, Staffordshire, England, not far from Birmingham. He was the only surviving child of Joseph and Elizabeth Asbury who became committed Methodists after the loss of an infant daughter. Francis’ early life was not one of material wealth, but he was blessed with parents who nurtured his spiritual growth from a young age.
• Francis travelled throughout the Birmingham area, preaching several times a week wherever he was asked.
• Francis went every place for the sake of precious souls; preaching generally, three, four, and five times a week pursuing his calling.
• Francis would say ‘’ whither am I going? To the new world. What to do? To gain honour? No, I know in my own heart. To get money? No: I am going to live to God and to bring others so to do.
• Francis occupied a powerful role. His heart led him to travel the nation, spreading the word of God.
• Francis’ life on the trial was brutal. Wolves stalked him, hailstones pelted him, chiggers and ticks preyed on his flesh, and the summer sun and winter winds were unmerciful. All he ate was bread but he wrote that he would ride along all the same, enjoying fellowship with God and trusting Him completely to keep him alive.
• Nothing stopped Francis’ heart from wanting to proclaim the good news with his dying breath.
Peter Cartwright
Peter Cartwright was born on September 1, 1785, in Amherst County, Virginia, to peter Cartwright sr. and Christiana Garvin. Peter was born while his mother was hiding in a dense cluster of cane trees to protect herself from an Indian attack.
• Peter spent much of that summer going from one communion service to the next, hungering continually for God and growing ever bolder in faith.
• Despite his forays into politics, peter remained a circuit preached and participated regularly in camp meetings.
• Peter spent most of his time preaching to rural communities and small crowds.

Billy Graham

William Franklin Graham Jr. was born on November 7, 1918, on a dairy from outside Charlotte, North Carolina, where his grandfather had built a log cabin after the civil war. Billy was born to William Franklin Graham and Morrow Coffey Graham.
• Billy travelled all the way to Europe to launch a ministry there.
• In the year 1947, Billy returned to tour in the United States.
• Billy has preached in person to nearly 215 million people in more than 185 countries and territories

William Booth
William Booth was born on April 10, 1829, in Nottingham (in central England), the only son of Samuel and Mary Booth. He and his three sisters grew up in their parents; redbrick terrace home in Sneinton, a small village that was eventually swallowed by Nottingham, a burgeoning hub of industry.
• While others were assembling in the streets to riot or preach social reform, William was seeking God.
• William was convinced that if he planned to save souls of the poor, he could not afford to wait for them to come to him. He persuaded his good friend to preach with him in the streets.
• William did not view these social outreaches as being any less important than reaching people’s souls.
Catherine Mumford Booth
Catherine Mumford was born on January 17, 1829, in Ashbourne, Derbyshire, the only daughter of John and Sarah Mumford. The Mumfords also had four sons but only one of them lived beyond childhood.
• When Catherine heard about the plight of the poor in other countries, she gave up sugar and other luxuries; the money thus spared was sent to missionary societies instead.
Dwight L. Moody
Dwight Lyman Moody was born on February 7, 1837. As the sixth child of Edwin and Betsy Moody, his parents would have three more children in the next four years.
• Dwight tried to lead and teach when others felt he should be listening and learning from those more experienced in the faith.
• Dwight paid attention to orphans and misfortunate children as no one else did.
• In his heart, Dwight was determined to serve wherever he could.
• Dwight started meetings for children and created even more techniques to preach the gospel to children in particular.
• Dwight returned to London for the final months of the campaign.

Charles Finney
Charles Grandison Finney was born in Warren, Connecticut, on August 29, 1792- only a year after the death of John Wesley, the seventh child of Sylvester and Rebecca Finney.
• Charles always preached with the expectation of seeing the Holy Spirit suddenly outpoured.
• Charles and his wife went on to minister in several places from October 1829 until May 1830, ending in New York City.
• Between September 1830 and March 1831, Charles preached several nights each week and three times each Sunday.
• Charles and his wife travelled to Great Britain in the fall of 1849 to minister there.
• Charles became the president of Oberlin College, but he continued to travel and lead revivals as his duties would allow him.

I will always like you to address yourself periodically in order for you to know, check through mirrors that will help you stop any negative practice or behavior that seem to be controversial in your own entire life.

Romans 6:13, give yourself completely to God, vs. 13, if you give yourself half way to God you may encounter half of God.

If you fully give yourself to God, you will encounter full of God.
Declare to yourself using Romans 6:14 ‘’I’m free! I’m free! I’m free!’’ thirty times. You can choose your own master.

Romans 6:16, we can commit ourselves to obey Christ in perfect freedom, all is in our hands. Without Jesus, we will have no choice and we will still be apprentice to sin and have apprenticeship certificate of sin and the results will continue to be suffering, guilty and separation from God. Isaiah 59:2

Serve God and not sin because serving sin will lead you to long life of suffering because I want you to enjoy God with His blessings. I determine it as unstoppable blessings within this year. Be God’s apprentice.

With the global mindset in Christ you are to dodge all above statement for you to stay on course for the Lord in order for you to get the deeds of heaven.
Ephesians 2:19. Hebrews 2:11. Understand that once you are born again, you have been disconnected from your lineage and have changed to the lineage of the Ancient of Days! So the problems in your former linage cannot affect you! Walk in that truth and walk free from all oppressions that have victimized your lineage!

It is my wish and prayer for you. One sister who led me to the Lord years ago told me one thing I will not forget, she said one day we will meet in heaven. Let me take this opportunity to address you with the same word. We need people to show us how to get through the different ages and stages of life; who can say? “Keep going, don’t give up now.” T.D JAKES
Hoping to hear from you wherever you are by using the below address. Stay blessed.
I hope you have been blessed through this ministration. I pray that God gives you the global mindset to operate across the world. God richly bless you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RUN FOR YOUR SALVATION NOW!!!!!!!!
Say this prayer;
‘’Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for dying on the cross to take away my sins. I am sorry for all the wrong things I have done. I ask you to please come into my heart and live in my heart forever. I am trusting you right now to make my heart clean and I take you to be my very own Lord and Saviour in Jesus’ name, Amen.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! YOU ARE A BELIEVER NOW!
