SALVATION WORD TABERNACLE (SAWOT)

Salvation Word Tabernacle (SAWOT) is a Tent of Meeting between God and His people according to the instruction He gave His servant to build a Tabernacle and bring His people to Him. Through this prophetic mission, God is raising an army that is marching unto the Promised Land. Salvation Word Tabernacle is a solution arena where many receive deliverance, healing, and restoration from the grip of Satan. The Tabernacle exists to unite the believer with God as one spirit and transform the believer into a Living Tabernacle. From the encounter with God in the Tabernacle, people carry His presence and power into their daily lives thereby positively affecting their world.

THE 12 COVENANT STONES

These Covenant Stones are the 12 visible manifestations of God in the Tabernacle. They represent the 12 Covenant Blessings that identify the worshippers of SAWOT. These divine virtues are available in every service and program of the mission. Like in the days of old, the twelve tribes of the tabernacle of Moses represented the Covenant blessings God had made with Abraham. “… By myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, And hast not withheld thy son, thine only son: 17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; 18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.” Genesis 22:16-18

4. SACRIFICE

Proverbs 3:9, Ephesians 2:8-10 Sacrifice is our breastplate

i. Total surrender to God
ii. Full time engagements both material and spiritual.
Iii. Diligence

We are a people of extraordinarily sacrificial lives. We live for God and are given to Sacrifice. Sacrifice means giving to the Lord whatever He requires of our time, our earthly possessions, and our energies to further His work. The Lord commanded, ―Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness‖ (Matthew 6:33). Our willingness to Sacrifice is an indication of our devotion to God. Mark 10:45 “For even the son of man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Rom 12:1 “therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.

Sacrifice is when you stretch yourself beyond reasonable standard, you end up Sacrificing for yourself. (Luke 9:24) Sacrifice is not talking about convenience but rather about inconvenience. When sacrifice is released, there‘s always a miraculous release.

Whatever you do, it must be by faith. The only way you can tap in faith is by hearing. Therefore, Sacrifice is by revelation and communication.

Sacrifice entails giving your most precious and most costly to God. It is determined by the value to you of what you let go for God. Serving God is an enlistment for a life of sacrifice and the willingness to let go of anything at the demand of God. We understand that the rewards of sacrifice are usually extraordinary. Power in the kingdom is triggered by sacrifice. Sacrifice is done in tears and in pain but the person engaging in it reaps in joy and bountifully. The returns are normally fearful because they are beyond what can be explained by the human mind. It is God‘s ordained gateway to a new dawn, glorious beginnings and series of breakthroughs.

8. WISDOM

Prov 3:13-14, Prov 9:6,

“For wisdom is better than jewels, and all that you may desire cannot compare with her.

“I, wisdom, dwell with prudence, and I find knowledge and discretion. The fear of the LORD is hatred of evil. Pride and arrogance and the way of evil and perverted speech I hate. I have counsel and sound wisdom; I have insight; I have strength. By me kings reign, and rulers decree what is just; by me princes rule, and nobles, all who govern justly. I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me. Riches and honor are with me, enduring wealth and righteousness. My fruit is better than gold, even fine gold, and my yield than choice silver. I walk in the way of righteousness, in the paths of justice, granting an inheritance to those who love me, and filling their treasuries.”

Wisdom is said to be the principal thing in the book of proverbs (Prov. 4:7-11). We understand that wisdom is a fundamental requirement for every believer. It is one of the basic graces that every SAWOT member must seek and receive from God.

Wisdom to us engulfs the visible manifestation of the following attributes:

i. Sound judgment
ii. Moral excellence
iii. Self-control
iv. Spiritual intelligence/perceptive knowledge about times and seasons.
In our place of prayers and meditations, we are endowed with a high capacity to assess situations, command circumstances and times shrewdly; and to draw sound conclusions.

We are distinguished by our high capacity of sound judgement. So, we uphold the qualities of doing what is right and avoiding what does not reflect our Christian values.

Our deep revelational knowledge of the word opens us up to outstanding spiritual understanding and perception. As a result of divine wisdom, we enjoy outstanding success and unprecedented prosperity.

11. GROWTH

“And when your herds and flocks multiply and your silver and gold is multiplied and all that you have is multiplied,” Deuteronomy 8:13
The Bible clearly states God‘s mind in relation to growth. It says, the path of the just man is as the shining light that shines more and more unto the perfect day (Proverbs 4:18)

We understand from the above scriptures that our salvation provides us access to a realm of unending progress.

God hates that we go in cycles. That is why he charged the Israelites‘ saying, Ye have gone around this mountain long enough, turn ye northwards… (Deut. 2:3)

“I will surely bless you, and I will surely multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven and as the sand that is on the seashore. And your offspring shall possess the gate of his enemies, and in your offspring shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice.” Gen.22: 17-18

Growth is one of the most effective covenants we have with God because it has to do with expansion and multiplication which gives us the mandate to reach the ends of the world. Physical growth in the Tabernacle is a fruit that confirms our salvation mandate. (Deuteronomy 8:1)

Every day, there shall be a visible positive change in structure and in capacity. No service shall resemble the other. This grace is very visible in the lives of members.

These attributes are glaring characteristics of our mandate:

i. Visible increase
ii. Expansion/Multiplication
iii. Progression
iv. Evolution

It is time to press to the next level.
It is time to break the failure and stagnation syndrome.
It is time to break new frontiers in all our endeavors.

A Little Introduction

STATEMENT OF FAITH

We believe in the Holy Trinity—one God, eternally existing in Three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit.

We believe in one God, the Father, creator of heaven and earth, of all things seen and unseen.


We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father. All things were made through Him and for Him. (John 1:1-3,14) He is true God and true man. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and was born of the Virgin, Mary. He suffered, died, was buried, and on the
third day He rose from the dead. He ascended to the right hand of the Father, and He will return to judge the living and the dead. His kingdom will have no end.


We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life, who eternally proceeds from the Father. He is Teacher, Comforter, Helper, and Giver of spiritual gifts. (John 14:16-17) Through Him the saving and sanctifying works of Jesus Christ are applied to the life of Believers. He is the empowering presence of God in the life of the Christian and the Church. The Father has sent His Son to baptize with the Holy Spirit. Speaking in tongues and bearing the fruit of the Spirit are New Testament signs of being filled
with The Holy Spirit. (Acts 2:4) The Holy Spirit produces rivers of life, joy, love, peace and power to flow out of your spirit for the needs of others (John 7:37-38).


We believe that salvation is by grace through faith in the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ on the cross and that He died in our place. The believer‘s sins are forgiven by the shedding of His blood. We believe that deliverance and healing of mind, body, soul, and spirit is available to the believer through the blood of Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.

We believe in one baptism in the name of the Father and of the Son and of The Holy Spirit.
We believe that the grace of God brings forgiveness and reconciliation to those who repent, as well as transformation in righteousness and holiness (Ephesians 4:24; Titus 2:12) enabling them to live a Christlike life. Sanctification is both a definite work of grace and a lifelong process of change in the believer brought by the blood of Jesus, the Word of God, and the enabling power of the Holy Spirit (Romans12:1; 1 Thessalonians 5:23; Hebrews 13:12)

We believe in The Lord‘s Supper as was celebrated by Jesus Christ and His disciples in Matthew 26:26-28

“ While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to His disciples, saying,

‘Take and eat; this is My body.‘ Then He took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, ‘Drink from it, all of you. This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of
sins.’ As the disciples of old were instructed to partake of the Lord‘s Supper by Jesus Christ, we also partake of the Lord‘s Supper (2 Peter 1:4), upon the instruction of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 2:10; 11:26-31).


We believe in one holy, universal church, composed of all true believers in Jesus Christ, offering fellowship and calling for service to men and women of all peoples, nations, cultures, and languages. We
believe in the spiritual and ultimate visible unity of the church which is the body of Christ.


We believe that the Bible both Old and New Testaments—is the inspired Word of God. The Bible is God‘s revelation of Himself and His will to humankind, sufficient for instruction and direction in salvation and daily Christian living. The Bible is the Christian‘s rule of faith and practice. (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21).


We believe in the rapture of the church and that Jesus Christ will return the same way he left the earth. (Acts 1:11; 1 Thessalonians. 4:16-17) Through Him, God will ultimately reconcile all things in heaven and earth to Himself. (Colossians 1:20) Therefore, we look forward to new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.
