Welcome to this popular theme of: "THE GOD OF A SECOND CHANCE "-a testimony of pastor Benny Hinn on his tour to South Africa in April 2016.

He said that in 2015, he had a heart attack and was taken to the hospital for heart surgery and while in hospital, he had a dream and in that dream, he found himself in a long ,queue at the gate of heaven and everyone was dressed in white garments. At the gate was Jesus dressed in a shiny, sparkling, white garment different from everyone and beside him, Pastor Benny Hinn saw a woman that was playing a piano. Jesus would nod his head in signal as to whether a person was accepted or denied to enter. If it was a yes, the pianist would play glorious melodies and the glory was overwhelming and the gates would automatically open but if it was a denial the pianist would play horrible melodies and demon would come to take the person away to hell. He said, out of the whole queue, only 20% entered but 80% denied. They were all christians and full of pastors but only 20% entered. He said everyone was trembling as they were waiting on the queue. He said eventually, his turn came and the pianist who knew him, smiled at him in admiration of his record amongst the people on earth but when Jesus looked at him, His look could tell that He was not impressed with him, and said his trembling and fear increased, knowing that he would not be able to make it through that gate, and when Jesus was about to make His decision, he woke up and God said to him:"Don't blow up this time, this is Your Second Chance !"

What an experienced ! What a story ! Refuse to believe the popular teaching by certain pastors that "ONCE SAVED FOREVER SAVED" Reject the teaching ! In (Philippians 2:12) says:

Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling ;

Being born again is the first steps to your heavenly mansion. The second step and more step involve running your race with vigilance, hatred for sin, forgiving others, prayers and your daily/disciplined Bible study. Don't allow battles to turn you against God because nothing on earth will follow you to heaven.

Pastor Benny Hill then explained something that every child of God needs to take note of. It is based on (Roman 11:29)

For the gifts and the calling of God are Irrevocable.

He said that all through his ministry, he had two ministry duties (JUST LIKE ANY OTHER BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN): one was to serve the people with his gift that God had given him i.e. preaching, and the other ministry was his personal work with God i.e his fellowship with God on a daily basis. He said that from 2010 as he passed through a marital divorce, his relationship with God became dead and God was far away. It was his wife who deserted him. He said that through the divorce, he lost about 7 million dollars, and his house and relationship with God was gone totally because it affected him emotionally, He said that he was a great "pretender", so he pretended before the people as if he was with God and yet he was not. But despite the battle he was going through, God was still using him mightily ! He still saw miracles in his programs.

And that what the Holy Ghost is using to speak to you now. *"Do you know that God can perform some miracles through you even when your fire for Him has died down ? * Yes ! Moses disobeyed God and yet WATER STILL CAME OUT OF THE ROCK ! Wow ! So, it is possible to see great testimonies and miracles in your life and ministry and still go to hell and that is why you must watch and pray and settle your fire with God. "Water came out of the rock under Moses' anointing but he missed the promised Land he had laboured for !"

You can speak in tongues and still go to hell ! You can raise the dead and call fire from heaven and God can still retire you in disgrace ! Judge yourself that you will not be judged ! Clean up to avoid clean up by force! Like Pastor Benny Hinn, cry out to God for a second chance and end on a clean report card with God.

Peace
