Do Not Be Clumsy Before Me

By Olumuyiwa Ojo

I had a notable spiritual encounter with God on January 3, 2016, which opened my understanding to a few secrets that I never knew in my walk with God for over two decades. In a definite tone of voice the message rang out loud and clear, "Tell my people not to be clumsy before me, I AM THE ALMIGHTY."

A Spirit-led meditation and study of three notable biblical characters, reflecting upon how the Almighty revealed His creative and redemptive powers in their lives and circumstances gave me insight into the substance of the message.

In this book, I practically highlight the issues related to spiritual clumsiness and identify how to avoid being clumsy before God. Ultimately, God's people are being encouraged and challenged to walk gracefully before God and live in His largeness, a place in which the Christian life can find full expression and destiny fulfillment.

About the Author

Foreword

To be clumsy is to be "awkward" in movement or shape or to be "graceless", or "tactless" or "uncoordinated". It could also mean to be "cumbersome", unmanageable, to lack sensitivity or to be thoughtless. And the Lord sent His word to His people, and to all who care to listen: Do not be clumsy before me.

Making God’s word to Abraham in Genesis 17:1 the anchor scripture, Bishop Ojo expounded this message simply, but profoundly, using three biblical characters.

This message is anointed, and is capable of bringing a glorious change into your life.

The message could have only come from the pen of a prophet. And Bishop Ojo is one. Shaken by a definite divine encounter followed with a forty-day fasting and intense prayer, Bishop Ojo has brought a word to us from the presence of the Lord

I have known Bishop Ojo for close to twenty five years. A true child of God, filled with the Holy Spirit, he truly loves God with all his heart, walking in obedience to the word of the Lord. Ojo is a true prophet.

I commend this booklet to you. Short but powerful. It will change your life!

Enjoy!

Grace be unto you in Jesus mighty name.

Preface

The documented experiences of men who walked with God in Bible times can seem like fables to any man until such experiences become personal. That was why John the beloved emphasized that they could not but speak of the things that they had seen, heard and their hands had handled of the word of life. Peter testified of how they were with Christ on the mountain of transfiguration and that experience changed their view of Christ permanently for good. My journey of forty days of waiting upon the Lord in the strength of His Spirit has further strengthened my conviction of how the Lord indeed sustained Moses and Jesus our Lord during their times of waiting on
