- 0:03Speaker 1: Said, Shame said as what she thinks her.
- 0:43Speaker 2: So share, whether we have come this morning asking that
- 1:13you will speak to us by your word, that you
- 1:16will speak to us by your spirit. Let someone's destiny
- 1:22find expression as a result of today's teaching.
- 1:27Speaker 3: Let someone receive restoration.
- 1:31Speaker 2: Let someone's walk with you be jacked back to life.
- 1:35Let someone find hope and healing. We vow to give
- 1:40you all the praise Holy Spirit. We declare that you
- 1:44have unrestrained access, access to our hearts, access to our minds.
- 1:50Do with us and do to us as you please,
- 1:53and let the Lord be glorified, for in Jesus' might, Tingame,
- 1:58we pray, is it all right if I request that
- 2:01you woke up to two or three, or four or five,
- 2:04if you have the strength at six or seven people,
- 2:07and just gently tell them good morning and God bless you.
- 2:12I'll do the counting while you walk. So this is one.
- 2:24Some of you are still on two. Good morning, Allelujah,
- 2:38God bless you.
- 2:38Speaker 3: Please.
- 2:40Speaker 2: You may return to your seat rejoicing and be seated.
- 2:44The Sami said, I was glad when they said, unto me,
- 2:47let us go to the house of the Lord. There
- 2:51are things that only happen in the House of the Lord. Allelujah.
- 3:00I want to sincerely thank the foundations of Sosire for
- 3:04this opportunity. It gives me great joy every time I
- 3:10have the honor of bringing God's word to his people,
- 3:14because I have learned from scripture and I've learned by
- 3:17experience that God's method has always been and will always
- 3:23be his word. He appears onto men principally by his word.
- 3:29He sets men free principally by his word.
- 3:32Speaker 3: And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Make you free, even when it comes to healing and deliverances.
- 3:41Speaker 3: Through his word.
- 3:42Speaker 2: He sent forth his word, and his word he led
- 3:45them and delivered them from all their infirmities or destructions.
- 3:52And so I place a lot of value on the
- 3:54word of God. And it's always my intent as I
- 3:58teach the Word, that beyond the thoughts that I share,
- 4:01that people will cultivate a hunger and a passion first
- 4:05for God and then for his word. A man who
- 4:09rejects the word of God has rejected everything.
- 4:13Speaker 3: God can offer. Let me say that again.
- 4:17Speaker 2: A man who has an act of his or her will,
- 4:21chooses to reject the word of God has also rejected
- 4:25everything that God can offer. I pray that God will
- 4:30bless our hearts in Jesus' name. And then I think
- 4:34it's also wise to just remind us to do well
- 4:38to get some of these teachings. You know, sometimes in
- 4:41conferences like this, no matter how attentive you are, there
- 4:44are some things you just will not hear, or at
- 4:48least will not get, Allelujah.
- 4:51Speaker 3: So faith comes by hearing and hearing.
- 4:54Speaker 2: The first hearing is onto awareness, the second hearing is
- 4:58onto understanding. It is not just what you are aware
- 5:02of that changes you, It is what you understand.
- 5:05Speaker 3: Allelujah.
- 5:06Speaker 2: The Uthopian, you know, opened the scripture was reading, and
- 5:11when Philip came, he said, understandings what thou readerst So
- 5:16just because you are interacting with truth does not mean
- 5:19you have received it.
- 5:20Speaker 3: He said, how can I accept some man.
- 5:23Speaker 2: Explain it to me? Allelujah. So yesterday we took our
- 5:29time to just examine from scripture the greatness of this
- 5:35great God. We called him King of Kings according to
- 5:38Scripture and Lord of Lords, and we thank God for
- 5:42how God took us through the service.
- 5:44Speaker 3: This morning, I thought to teach.
- 5:48Speaker 2: On the subject of prayer, since this is a prayer conference,
- 5:53I thought to wrap up my session by sharing a
- 5:56few very important thoughts as.
- 6:01Speaker 3: It relates to prayer.
- 6:05Speaker 2: The foundation for an excelling life, generally speaking, is your
- 6:10relationship with God. According to Scripture, any man is already
- 6:15on the path to victory and excellence when you take
- 6:19God seriously. The foundation for an excelling life at any.
- 6:25Speaker 3: Level is your relationship with God.
- 6:28Speaker 2: That means, when you pursue any other thing higher and
- 6:32greater than your relationship with God, you stand the risk
- 6:36of losing out of the potential to become an exceptional person.
- 6:43Speaker 3: Allelujah.
- 6:44Speaker 2: The Bible says in Second Chronicles twenty six and verse
- 6:47five talking about Usiah, Second Chronicles twenty six and verse five,
- 6:53it says, for as long as he's sought the Lord,
- 6:57the Lord made him Usiah to prosper. For as long
- 7:02as he's sought the Lord, Second Chronicles twenty six and
- 7:06verse five, the Lord made him. It is God that
- 7:10makes men to prosper. Paul can plant, Apollo can water,
- 7:15but increase is exclusively of the Lord.
- 7:18Speaker 3: Are we together?
- 7:20Speaker 2: Spirituality, I wrote here, is the foundation for true dominion and.
- 7:27Speaker 3: Exploits in the Kingdom.
- 7:29Speaker 2: Spirituality is the foundation for true dominion and exploits in
- 7:35the kingdom.
- 7:36Speaker 3: That means for.
- 7:37Speaker 2: Every believer who seeks to work in the experience of dominion.
- 7:41Recall yesterday we said we learn and know about us
- 7:47when we learn and know about Him. So one of
- 7:50the reasons why we study God is to be able.
- 7:54Speaker 3: To understand ourselves.
- 7:56Speaker 2: We were created in his image and his likeness, and
- 7:59the own only way to really know who we are
- 8:02is to know who He is. So we don't just
- 8:05study God because we love him. We don't just study
- 8:08God because we want to appreciate the vastness of his greatness.
- 8:12But we study him in order to discover ourselves. The
- 8:16Bible says, as he is, so are we not in
- 8:20the life after?
- 8:22Speaker 3: Here and now?
- 8:24Speaker 2: So if it is true that he's king of kings,
- 8:26and if it's true that he's Lord of all, it
- 8:29gets to show that there must be that dominion component
- 8:32within us. And when we understand his greatness, his ability
- 8:36to exact power and influence over creation, we must be
- 8:41able to follow.
- 8:42Speaker 3: Save.
- 8:42Speaker 2: In fact, the Bible says, let them have dominion. And
- 8:45then it begins to list all of the spares, the
- 8:49birds of the air, the foul, the cattle and everything
- 8:53that creeps upon the earth defines for us the jurisdiction
- 8:57of our dominion. And one of the major enhancers to
- 9:03spirituality is understanding prayer. If it is true that spirituality
- 9:10is the bedrock and the foundation for an excelling life,
- 9:13not just spiritually speaking, it starts with your spiritual lifebody
- 9:17speels over to every aspect of your life. The control
- 9:21room of any man's greatness in the kingdom is the
- 9:25health and the strength of your spiritual life. And there
- 9:30are many enhancers to spirituality. I'll just speak on one
- 9:34of them, and that becomes my discussion for the time.
- 9:37That we have the health of your prayer life, your
- 9:41understanding the prayer ministry becomes a principle and answer to
- 9:47your spirituality. There is no man, there is no woman,
- 9:52who will become spiritual to God's standard without understanding prayer.
- 9:58Many people pray, very few people understand prayer. Allelujah. It
- 10:06is important to be efficient in prayer. And since this
- 10:10is a prayer conference, I just thought to share a
- 10:14few things that can help us maximize our prayer adventure.
- 10:19Do you know why prayer meetings in many circles usually
- 10:27don't come with a lot of motivation. Two reasons. One
- 10:30because many people do not get results from their prayer.
- 10:36Many people do not get results from their prayer. Generally speaking,
- 10:41nobody leaves what works.
- 10:43Speaker 3: Do you agree with me on that.
- 10:44Speaker 2: The moment you try or test the thing and it works,
- 10:48you are motivated to stay there. So the number one
- 10:51reason for the laxity in prayer.
- 10:55Speaker 3: Extends to prayer.
- 10:56Speaker 2: Meetings of all sorts is because the truth is, most
- 10:59people who cannot they do not have consistency of results
- 11:04through prayer, and so because of that, they hardly have
- 11:09an appreciation for the prayer ministry. Instinctively, they know that
- 11:13it's one of the requirements for believer's growth and excelling,
- 11:17but since they have not gotten results there.
- 11:19Speaker 3: They pay very less attention to it.
- 11:24Speaker 2: The second reason is most people have not been taught
- 11:28that you are actually taught to pray. Prayer is not
- 11:32just something you do. Prayer, like driving or any other
- 11:35spiritual adventure. You are taught to pray. There are people
- 11:41who learned how to drive without anyone driving them or
- 11:44teaching them, and they may not know the mistakes they
- 11:47are making just because the guy is moving in obedience
- 11:51until they face a situation that requires structured knowledge. That's
- 11:57when they will find out that even though they've driven
- 11:59success fully for years, there were things they did not
- 12:02know about driving.
- 12:03Speaker 3: For instance, when.
- 12:05Speaker 2: They relocate abroad, they will fail the driving tests helplessly.
- 12:09Speaker 3: To their shame.
- 12:10Speaker 2: They said, look, I've driven from Abuja to Legos many
- 12:12times outdare you fail me cheaply like this? That is
- 12:16when they will realize that it's not just about moving
- 12:19a vehicle.
- 12:20Speaker 3: There is understanding. Most people pray.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Some of them were born from prayerful families, by prayerful families,
- 12:29passed through prayerful circles. But the truth is that not
- 12:32many believers have been taught to pray. The disciples of
- 12:36Jesus as the disciples of John. They saw John attempts
- 12:40to mentor them in the area of prayer, and they
- 12:44tried everything John said, and they themselves.
- 12:46Speaker 3: Began to pray.
- 12:47Speaker 2: They were frustrated at a point because their prayer was
- 12:50not producing power. Then they came to Jesus, according to
- 12:54Luke's synoptic account, and they said, teach us to pray
- 12:58as John taught his disciples to pray. So their issue
- 13:02was not prayerlessness. It was inefficiency in prayer. They were
- 13:06not getting results. They were honestly praying, saying whatever it is.
- 13:10Speaker 3: And it was not producing power.
- 13:12Speaker 2: But they noticed Jesus he did not waste words.
- 13:15Speaker 3: Every word had.
- 13:16Speaker 2: A return on that investment. If he spoke to storms,
- 13:20he returned with results. If he spoke to situations, he
- 13:23spoke to men, he spoke to circumstances. He was such
- 13:27an admirable sight to behold, and they had to confront
- 13:31him one day, say, don't leave us this way, teach
- 13:33us to pray, bring efficiency to our prayer adventure a
- 13:39way together.
- 13:40Speaker 3: Many believers will pray if they have answers through prayer.
- 13:45Speaker 2: Many believers will not have to be coerked into prayer, ministry,
- 13:51prayer meetings, you know, cajule and so on and so forth.
- 13:54It is because most people are frustrated, some indefinitely until
- 13:59the back's leading as fast prayers concern and then we
- 14:03pray all kinds of funny prayers.
- 14:05Speaker 3: And don't get answers.
- 14:07Speaker 2: One thing we need to know as a rule of thumb,
- 14:10is that God is touched with the feelings of your infirmity,
- 14:14but he only responds as his word allows there are
- 14:18rules of engagement even in the way God responds to man.
- 14:23God does not respond to man emotionally. He has submitted
- 14:29himself to his word himself, the Bible says, he exalts
- 14:32his word even above his name, above his office, above
- 14:36his reputation.
- 14:38Speaker 3: So you would think that just because.
- 14:39Speaker 2: You are crying, and you know lamenting, God would be
- 14:43obliged to move his touch with the feelings of your infirmity.
- 14:47That is called compassion. But he's moved by his word.
- 14:52If God were moved emotionally the first people, he will
- 14:55rescue our children, not even you. And yet you can
- 14:59watch children eye and watch all kinds of catastrophic things
- 15:02happen in our world. And here is a God who
- 15:05the Bible calls an epitome of love, with the ald
- 15:09seen eye seated on his throne. How could he watch
- 15:12thus mayhem happen across the earth and not do anything
- 15:16about it. It is the reason why trying to buy
- 15:21up sympathy spiritually will only end us in frustration. There
- 15:25are rules that produce victory. God is touched with the
- 15:29feelings of your infirmity. But please listen to me as
- 15:32we delve into this subject of prayer. He's only moved
- 15:36by his word. Not even the tears of Jesus could
- 15:40stop that which had was written, that from the foundations
- 15:43of the earth, the Lamb was slain, and that without
- 15:45the shedding of blood there is.
- 15:47Speaker 3: No remission of sin.
- 15:48Speaker 2: You will think the tears of his only begotten son,
- 15:51not even the blood that was flowing from the lacerations
- 15:55could turn the heart of God. As compassionate as he is,
- 16:00he still watches son die I way together. So the
- 16:09wise saying one day go better, unfortunately does not work.
- 16:14It consoles, but it does not work. It comforts, but
- 16:18it does not work. Time will not change anything by default.
- 16:24You will have to know how to engage the word
- 16:27even in prayer.
- 16:29Speaker 3: Can we look at a few things about prayer? Thank
- 16:32you Jesus.
- 16:36Speaker 2: Just one scripture Ephicients, chapter six, Please we will read
- 16:42seventeen and eighteen contextually. Paul is wrapping up his discourse
- 16:50with the church in Ephesus, and he starts from verse
- 16:53ten by saying, finally, brethren, he says, be strong in
- 16:58the Lord. He's giving them his final words now, and
- 17:01he says, be strong in the Lord and in the
- 17:04power of his might. Are we together now?
- 17:07Speaker 3: Yes?
- 17:07Speaker 2: Now, The Book of Efficiency is very interesting theologically because
- 17:11it contains, according to many theological thoughts, it contains about
- 17:16the Richer's truth as far as the believers work is concerned.
- 17:20Paul took out time to give his sound exegesis as
- 17:24far as the believers work is concerned. He spoke about
- 17:30the believer's position of advantage.
- 17:32Speaker 3: Seated with Christ. He spoke about the work.
- 17:35Speaker 2: Of the believer, the character that befits a believer's experience.
- 17:40He talks about the demonic forces that try to antagonize
- 17:44and resist believers, and he teaches us how to fight
- 17:48against the wiles of the enemy. And he's wrapping up
- 17:51his discourse. From verse ten. He announ says, be strong
- 17:54in the Lord and in the power of his might.
- 17:57Speaker 3: Then he tells us to put on the.
- 17:59Speaker 2: Whole army, more not some, the whole armor, to the
- 18:04end that we may be able to stand against the
- 18:06wiles or the strategies of the devil. Are we see
- 18:10it together? Then he begins to describe that amory.
- 18:13Speaker 3: He says, for.
- 18:14Speaker 2: Your information, know this as you saw John, that we
- 18:18wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities powers
- 18:25rulers of the darkness of this world against spiritual wickedness
- 18:29that are domicile within the heavenly places. To that end,
- 18:33he begins to describe the believer's amory, Take on the
- 18:37whole armor of God, that you may be able to
- 18:40withstand the evil day. And then he says, haven't done
- 18:43all to stand?
- 18:44Speaker 3: He begins is listing?
- 18:46Speaker 2: Now he says, stand there for having your loins got
- 18:49about with truth. So truth is an armor. Righteousness is
- 18:53another armor. Next verse please, he talks about the preparation
- 18:58of the Gospel of Peace as an armor.
- 19:01Speaker 3: He talks about the shield of faith.
- 19:04Speaker 2: Then he says, with this shield of faith you sustain
- 19:07the ability to quench all, not some, all the fiery
- 19:12that of the wicked. And then he says, to take
- 19:15the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit.
- 19:19Speaker 3: Which is the world of God.
- 19:22Speaker 2: And then he says verse eighteen, this is where we
- 19:25are finally arriving at. Now let's read together, ready, want
- 19:29to read praying, Hold on praying always with all prayer?
- 19:37Can we have NIV this possible? NIV ID appreciate NIV.
- 19:42N IV says, praying always with all kinds of prayer. Remember,
- 19:48I took out time to journey with you from verstenso
- 19:51that you understand the flow of the discourse. Don't forget
- 19:54his thoughts. He's teaching you how to stand. He's teaching
- 19:57you how to prevail. He gives you information that you
- 20:01are in a world where you are not alone.
- 20:02Speaker 3: Are we together?
- 20:03Speaker 2: That the Satan is there with his whole arsenal, And
- 20:07now he's teaching you how to put on the whole
- 20:11arm of God. So this scripture right there is a
- 20:14continuation the whole arm of God. And then he says,
- 20:18pray in the spirit on all occasions. Then he says,
- 20:24with all kinds of prayer. That means there are different
- 20:29kinds and different models of prayer.
- 20:33Speaker 3: Are we together? Now?
- 20:34Speaker 2: Did I give you my topic for this morning? I'm
- 20:36teaching on scriptural prayer models. Scriptural prayer models, scriptural prayer
- 20:43models from this scripture. So the Bible says to pray
- 20:46in the spirit on all occasions. But then he says,
- 20:52part of the strategy for you remaining victorious as a
- 20:56believer is to know and deplore all kinds of prayers.
- 21:02Speaker 3: Please say after me, all kinds of.
- 21:04Speaker 2: Prayers allelujah, all kinds of prayers.
- 21:12Speaker 3: The Bible says in Mac Chapter.
- 21:19Speaker 2: MAC Chapter twenty four, I believe now Jesus was speaking
- 21:23to the fig tree. What scriptuice that remind me? He says, verily, verily,
- 21:29I say onto you that whatsoever thinks he desire when
- 21:35ye pray, believe that thou receives them, and you shall
- 21:39find them. That should be Mac eleven and verse twenty four.
- 21:43The discussion starts from verse twenty one. Then answer twenty four,
- 21:47Please give us twenty four. So he says, whatsoever thinks
- 21:50ye desire? Did I get that right? Twenty four?
- 21:53Speaker 3: Thank you? When ye pray?
- 21:56Speaker 2: There is a connection between desires, prayer, believing, and their
- 22:00manifestation away together. In Look chapter eighteen and verse one,
- 22:04the Bible says, you speak a parable to the end
- 22:07that men ought always to pray, always consistency to pray,
- 22:13and not to faint. First Thessalonians Chapter five and verse seventeen,
- 22:18he says, pray without season doesn't mean to pray from
- 22:22morning till night. It means be consistent. That the prayer
- 22:26adventure becomes profitable when it is consistently practiced away together
- 22:34James chapter five and verse thirteen, he says, is any
- 22:38man afflicted, let him pray, Let him pray, let him pray.
- 22:45A few verses afterwards, he says, the phavant and effectual
- 22:49prayer of the righteous, have they led much even for
- 22:54Jesus as our model, Jesus.
- 22:56Speaker 3: As our pattern man. In Look Chapter nine, from.
- 22:59Speaker 2: Verse twenty eight to twenty nine, at the amount of transfiguration,
- 23:03the Bible says, verse twenty nine, Look nine twenty nine,
- 23:06as he prayed, as he prayed, as he prayed, Jesus prayed,
- 23:11as he prayed, John seventeen and verse one. Jesus lifted
- 23:16up his eyes to the.
- 23:17Speaker 3: Heavens and prayed. John seventeen.
- 23:20Speaker 2: Verse one, He prayed, Father, the hour is come. Glorify
- 23:24now your son, Allelujah, that your son may glorify thee
- 23:30we see scatter through scripture that Jesus prayed.
- 23:34Speaker 3: He invested time praying.
- 23:36Speaker 2: Any believer who must reign and triumphed exacting dominion over
- 23:41these cosmos must pray. But prayer comes with understanding, and
- 23:46so I want to examine with us very quickly at
- 23:50least four models of prayer. The Bible mandates that we
- 23:53pray with all kinds of prayer, all kinds of prayer.
- 24:01I'm hoping that from this discussion someone's prayer life will
- 24:04become richer because you'll be able to incorporate other dimensions
- 24:09that may not have been captured in your prayer life.
- 24:13Speaker 3: Are you ready?
- 24:14Speaker 2: The first model of prayer, according to Scripture, in no
- 24:17particular order.
- 24:18Speaker 3: Is called praying in the spirit.
- 24:21Speaker 2: What you call deploying the prayer language of tongues, praying
- 24:27in the spirit. Generally speaking, praying in the spirit is
- 24:32not limited to praying in tongues, but classically speaking, every
- 24:37time we talk about praying in the spirit, it is
- 24:40safe to assume the Bible is talking about praying using
- 24:44the prayer language of tongues. First Corinthians fourteen and verse fifteen.
- 24:49This is the first prayer model that I want to
- 24:52introduce to us as an advantage.
- 24:54Speaker 3: To all believers.
- 24:56Speaker 2: It's been a bone of contention for many years, and
- 25:00especially among many religious circles, as to the value or
- 25:07the necessity of sustaining the ability to pray in tongues.
- 25:12This has been and sadly remains a reason for argument.
- 25:20But Paul speaks here and he says, what is it?
- 25:23Then he says, I will pray with the spirit. Please
- 25:28follow carefully. Then he says, I will pray with the understanding.
- 25:33Also clearly he tells you now that they do not
- 25:37mean the same thing.
- 25:38Speaker 3: He says, I will pray in.
- 25:39Speaker 2: The spirit or with the spirit, and then I will
- 25:42pray with my understanding. The prayer language is not the
- 25:47same as the gift of diverse.
- 25:50Speaker 3: Kinds of tongues.
- 25:51Speaker 2: This is where I think there's been an age long confusion, allelujah,
- 25:55because Paul said in First Corinthians, when you reach chapter
- 25:58twelve down to thirteen and fourteen, he says, do all
- 26:03speak with tongues. And so most people will mistaken that
- 26:07to mean that the prayer language of tongues is not
- 26:09for everyone. Remember, when you approach scripture contextually, he was
- 26:13talking about the gifts of the spirit, and he made
- 26:17a statement there that the gift of the spirit is
- 26:19to profit with au. That means the gift of the
- 26:22spirit is not necessarily for personal edification. It empowers the
- 26:26individual to be a blessing to the church.
- 26:30Speaker 3: Are we together now?
- 26:31Speaker 2: When he gets to chapter fourteen, now he says chapter
- 26:35fourteen and verse two he says, please give it to
- 26:38us verse two, and then verse four, First Corinthians, chapter fourteen.
- 26:43He that speaketh in an unknown tongue. Watch this now
- 26:48he's speaketh not onto men. Immediately, that tells you it
- 26:52is not part of the gift of the spirit is
- 26:53talking about, because all the gift of the spirit is
- 26:56to profit withou. But this now he's speaking of tongues
- 27:01as a strategy for personal edification. He says, he speaks
- 27:06onto God for no man understanding him. How be it
- 27:11he speaketh in the Spirit, and the spirit he speaketh
- 27:16mysteries very powerful. Hallelujah. Every believer that does not engage
- 27:24praying in the spirit will rob himself or herself will
- 27:30rob your destinies of many, many, many dimensions of the
- 27:35blessings that come from prayer. What is prayed in the
- 27:39spirit or what is prayed in tongues? You are allowing
- 27:42the Spirit of God.
- 27:43Speaker 3: Please listen.
- 27:44Speaker 2: You are allowing the Spirit of.
- 27:46Speaker 3: God to use your vocal.
- 27:49Speaker 2: Cords, your faculties, to express prayer in a language you
- 27:54may not learn and understand. How be it your confidence
- 27:58is that the Spirit of God is not number one
- 28:00called the Spirit of truth.
- 28:02Speaker 3: So that even though you do.
- 28:04Speaker 2: Not understand what you are saying you trust, according to scripture,
- 28:07that he's praying now to you the will of God.
- 28:12Speaker 3: Are we together now?
- 28:13Speaker 2: And so when you begin to pray in the spirit,
- 28:15it does not make sense to you. Looks like you're
- 28:18praying gibberish. However, the Bible tells you that we do
- 28:22not know how to pray for us we ought to.
- 28:24That means it is a limitation in all men. We
- 28:27are limited. We do not even understand what our problems are.
- 28:30You can be praying for headache, whereas the problem is
- 28:33a demonic attack.
- 28:34Speaker 3: And so the Bible says that God.
- 28:36Speaker 2: In knowing this deficiency in men, he's supplemented that by
- 28:41granting us access to this prayer language.
- 28:45Speaker 3: Allelujah. So when you engage in.
- 28:47Speaker 2: The prayer language, it is important for you to know
- 28:50that you're not just fulfiling a religious ritual. You are
- 28:54allowing the Spirit of God to take advantage of your
- 28:57faculties and to express the will of God in prayer.
- 29:01You can trust everything that is said in the prayer
- 29:04language because it is the Holy Spirit praying through you,
- 29:07making intercession through you.
- 29:12Speaker 3: Alle lujah. And I remember many years ago when.
- 29:17Speaker 2: You know, before God brought us to this level. I
- 29:20used to have the time to minister the baptism of
- 29:23the Holy Spirit over people one by one, and most
- 29:26times people's confusion was the fact that they thought their
- 29:30tongues were not sounding very professional. What is blah blah
- 29:34blah blah blah blah blah, and what you mean that
- 29:37thing is? Really that doesn't really sound intelligent? Now that's
- 29:41the problem with men, because everything we believe most come
- 29:45through the sieve of intellect, and the Bible says the
- 29:48natural man cannot receive the things of the spirit the
- 29:51prayer language. Now you see in English, every time you
- 29:55want to tell me to step forward, you will say come.
- 29:57So c O M always means step forward, doesn't necessarily
- 30:01have any other meaning. But in the realm of the spirit,
- 30:04just because your mind thinks you are repeating the same word,
- 30:07it doesn't mean you are saying the same thing. Do
- 30:11you understand this?
- 30:12Speaker 3: Now?
- 30:13Speaker 2: You need to understand this now, so you the problem
- 30:17is the conflict between intellect and spirit communication. I give
- 30:22you an example of spirit communication two in the Bible.
- 30:25In fact, number one is called manettea kel u Fersen.
- 30:29Did you ever read of something like that? Look at
- 30:32the interpret and the interpretation of just four letter words
- 30:36to the intellect. Manette alone means old King, you have
- 30:39been weighed in a balance and you are being found
- 30:41wanting My God. So imagine what you're say in fifteen
- 30:44minutes of prayer. That was not a Babylonian language. It
- 30:49was a spirit communication. It took Daniel was being in
- 30:53he had to interpret it. Can I give you another one, Alloy,
- 30:59Ma Sabaktaney. The Bible says which been interpreted, it had
- 31:03to be interpreted. It's not a heavenly language. It was
- 31:06not a Jewish language. Eloy Sabaktane. Was Jesus communicating the
- 31:14Bible says which being interpreted. Did you see that which
- 31:19being interpreted? Nobody on earth would have been able to
- 31:23decipher what he said?
- 31:25Speaker 3: My God, My God?
- 31:26Speaker 2: Why has that forsaken me? So don't when you praying
- 31:33the spirit, don't limit yourself to the intelligence of it.
- 31:38Speaker 3: This man's tongue sounds nice.
- 31:39Speaker 2: It looks like it's the real wordy spirit working with
- 31:42this guy for mine. I don't know what kind of
- 31:44spirit took over me with this nonsense. I'm speaking the
- 31:47moment you allow the devil to do that you.
- 31:49Speaker 3: Have been robbed of an opportunity. Please look at me.
- 31:54Speaker 2: How many of you laugh? You just laughed?
- 31:58Speaker 3: Now? Eh?
- 31:59Speaker 2: You start laughing us a baby question? Who taught you?
- 32:03Who gave you an opportunity to rehass How many of
- 32:07you cry? Have you ever taken note of the way
- 32:10you love or the way you cry? Have you ever
- 32:11been embarrassed by how you love or cry? It's the
- 32:14same thing their own languages. Love ties a language. Crying
- 32:19is a language.
- 32:22Speaker 3: Are you getting it now?
- 32:23Speaker 2: So when people say how can I communicate something I've
- 32:26never learned, teach them that they loved without rehearsal. They
- 32:30cried without rehassal. Scriptural prayer models pray in the spirit.
- 32:41Pray in the spirit. Pray in the spirit. There are
- 32:44many things that happen at once when we pray in
- 32:46the spirit. There's no time to be able to go
- 32:49into all that detail. Who are just taking this at
- 32:52an elementary level?
- 32:53Speaker 3: Boy?
- 32:54Speaker 2: I will tell you three things that happens when you
- 32:56pray in the spirit. Number one, you build power. You
- 32:59build power. At chapter one and verse eight, you shall
- 33:02receive power. Acts chapter two, from verse one to four,
- 33:05they receive tongues Jesus never said you will receive tongues
- 33:09when the Holy Spirit comes. He said you will receive power.
- 33:12But in Acts chapter two, what they receive was a
- 33:14prayer language. That means there is a relationship between praying
- 33:18in the spirit and accessing spiritual power.
- 33:21Speaker 3: Allelujah.
- 33:25Speaker 2: If I tell you will receive five thousand dollars, and
- 33:28by the time you meet me, I give you a card,
- 33:31it should tell you immediately that there is a relationship
- 33:34between the promise I made and something within that card.
- 33:37Speaker 3: Am I right on? That you don't thry away.
- 33:39Speaker 2: The card because most likely that card contains within it
- 33:43or is connected to an account that is worth five
- 33:46thousand dollars. If you try away the account because you
- 33:49are looking for five thousand dollars cash, you may have
- 33:52thrown away your money. So when it says you will
- 33:54receive power and what you receive is a prayer language,
- 33:57it means there is a relationship between engaging in that
- 34:01prayer language and accessing or releasing spiritual power. Do you
- 34:05agree with me on that? The Bible lets us know
- 34:07furthermore that when we pray in the spirit, we give
- 34:10the Holy Spirit an opportunity to draw into our lives,
- 34:15the knowledge of the will of God. That no man
- 34:20knows what is in the heart of man, accept the
- 34:22spirit that is in that man. So also no man
- 34:25knows what is in the heart of God. Accept the
- 34:27spirit of God. So as we pray, we grant the
- 34:30Holy Spirit an opportunity to buy into the mind of
- 34:34the Father and pull to your consciousness what the will
- 34:39of God is part time and percising for your life.
- 34:43This is very powerful when.
- 34:45Speaker 3: We pray in the spirit.
- 34:46Speaker 2: Among the many things we receive is the knowledge of
- 34:50the will of God concerning the various matters in our lives.
- 34:54Speaker 3: Now, the truth is that you.
- 34:56Speaker 2: May not find the answer to your problem direct from scripture.
- 35:01Speaker 3: You may not find your name. You may not find in.
- 35:04Speaker 2: Scripture whether you should live in the island or in
- 35:06the mainland away together. You may not find in scripture
- 35:09whether you should get into a dry cleaning business or
- 35:12a restaurant. You may not directly find that. But as
- 35:16you pray in the Spirit, among the many things that
- 35:19happens to you is that the Holy Spirit is able
- 35:23to buy into the wisdom of God and to communicate
- 35:27to you that which is consistent with your blueprint.
- 35:31Speaker 3: Part time it is.
- 35:32Speaker 2: Risky to take many destiny defining decisions without praying the spirit.
- 35:37It will always look like you are correct till you
- 35:40find out you've veered away from the will of God.
- 35:43For many of us, the reason why we keep recycling
- 35:46seasons of pain is because we have not taken advantage
- 35:49of this provision A way together, praying in the spirit.
- 35:56Praying in the spirit. Let me jump to the second model.
- 36:01Are we learning already? Is this helping someone's prayer life?
- 36:07So the next time the devil comes with his tricks
- 36:10to waste your time while you pray, you rebuke him
- 36:13and say, if you did not come to me while
- 36:15I was laughing, then don't come to me while I'm praying,
- 36:19because it's a business between me and the Father.
- 36:22Speaker 3: I way together. Now, Number two.
- 36:27Speaker 2: The second model of prayer that many believers do not understand,
- 36:32They do not even know it is prayer is declaring
- 36:35scripture in prayer, My goodness, my God, declaring scripture in prayer,
- 36:43not just quoting. There is a difference, and I'm going
- 36:47to show you now. Just because you are quoting scripture
- 36:49does not mean you are carrying out this model of prayer.
- 36:53It is a powerful model of prayer to declare scriptures
- 37:00one oh seven, two and three, please my God, declaring
- 37:05scripture in prayer. The Bible says, let the redeemed of
- 37:11the Lord please help me say so? What is the
- 37:16platform that allows them to say so? Let the Redeemed
- 37:19of the Lord say so? What is this model of prayer?
- 37:24Please watch this? So you take scripture and personalize it.
- 37:30You put yourself in the experience of that word.
- 37:33Speaker 3: And you declared, are we together?
- 37:36Speaker 2: Now? The Bible says, to bring forth your strong reasons,
- 37:42to bring forth, present your cause, your case, say the Lord,
- 37:47and it says, bring forth your strong reason. Don't just
- 37:51say God, are you not my father? You can be
- 37:53watching me like that. That's not prayer. That's not prayer.
- 37:58Let me show you how this mode of prayer walks.
- 38:02That you can stand in the place of prayer and
- 38:04you are making prophetic declarations. The Lord is my light
- 38:08and my salvation. I am blessed, going out and blessed.
- 38:11Speaker 3: Comedy. This is your praying. Now I went together.
- 38:15Speaker 2: You become the prophet of your destiny at that point.
- 38:19Speaker 3: And as you are speaking, you know.
- 38:21Speaker 2: Because the Bible says ecrasy has this I believe Chapter eight,
- 38:25let's try three or four.
- 38:27Speaker 3: That should be verse four. Please, where the word of
- 38:29a king is?
- 38:31Speaker 2: Did I get okay?
- 38:33Speaker 3: Where the word of a king is? Is that in
- 38:35your bible? There is what? Help me? Say? Power one
- 38:39more time?
- 38:40Speaker 2: Where the word of a king is Remember Revelations five
- 38:43point ten. We have been made onto our God, kings
- 38:46and priests, and we shall reign on earth. That means
- 38:50every time you make these declarations, you are not just
- 38:52speaking to the air. You are programming realities over your destiny.
- 38:58Speaker 3: Believe this.
- 39:01Speaker 2: I am blessed in the city and blessed in the country.
- 39:05I obey the Lord and I serve him. Therefore I
- 39:08enjoy prosperity, my days in prosperity, my years in pleasure.
- 39:13Speaker 3: This is your declaring scripture.
- 39:14Speaker 2: A thousand and four by my side and ten thousand
- 39:17by my right side. None shall hurt me with my eyes.
- 39:21Shall I see and behold the reward of the wicked.
- 39:24The Lord is my light and my salvation. Of whom
- 39:27shall I be afraid of? Are we together?
- 39:29Speaker 3: Now?
- 39:30Speaker 2: Yes? They may come against me in one way, but
- 39:34they will cut in seven ways. I am the delight
- 39:37of the Lord. I shall not die, but live and declare.
- 39:41This is a prayer model. It's a prayer model. Most
- 39:47believers do not have a rich prayer life because they
- 39:49do not.
- 39:49Speaker 3: Even know just how the average believer praise Father.
- 39:53Speaker 2: You are the King of Kings and the Lord of
- 39:54Lord Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end and all.
- 39:57And you see that they don't believe what they're saying. Now,
- 40:01imagine you are God and somebody does come. You're the
- 40:03line of Driver of Judah, the rows of Sharon and
- 40:06the king of what is rows of Charon? What is
- 40:08King of Kings? Now I'm not being insulted. Please don't
- 40:11don't misunderstand me. And at the end of it, all
- 40:13that preamble is to really get to a point where
- 40:16they can bring down that pain and say, God, let's
- 40:19talk this rent. You sent manner from heaven. They wasted it.
- 40:26You sent another one. I'm only asking you for rent
- 40:30in Jesus' name, and the person will live actually believing
- 40:34that he prayed. No, you didn't pray. You lamented, agreed,
- 40:40you cried, agreed, you were superstitious, agreed, But it was
- 40:45not prayer. Are we together? Because I've set my affection
- 40:54on him? Look if you the key to manifesting this
- 40:59model is that your world bank must be fool. If
- 41:03you do not understand scripture, you cannot pray this model.
- 41:06Because this model is a direct lifting from scripture. You
- 41:10just put yourself there and make that declaration. If you
- 41:14are poor in the world, you cannot pray this model
- 41:17of prayer.
- 41:19Speaker 3: Alle Lujah.
- 41:21Speaker 2: This is the kind of the model of prayer that
- 41:24you used to counter negative speakings.
- 41:27Speaker 3: Did you get that?
- 41:28Speaker 2: Now that someone looks at you and says, every body.
- 41:31Speaker 3: In this unit is a useless.
- 41:33Speaker 2: Person, immediately a scripture wealth from you. It's not that
- 41:37you have to reply that person immediately, because there's wisdom. Remember,
- 41:44so someone looks at you and saying the way you
- 41:46are looking sick like this, as if you're going to
- 41:48die soon, a scripture just comes up, and the moment
- 41:51you find a chance, no, I shall not die.
- 41:54Speaker 3: I shall not die.
- 41:55Speaker 2: They are live to those who find them, and health
- 41:58to their flesh.
- 42:00Speaker 3: We together now, Yes.
- 42:04Speaker 2: The advantage of this prayer is that it keeps reinforcing
- 42:08that truth to your consciousness because generally speaking, speaking reinforces
- 42:14the reality of thoughts.
- 42:16Speaker 3: This is psychology. You agree with me on.
- 42:18Speaker 2: That that every time you speak a thing, the reality
- 42:21still is crystallized in your mind. Again, you get up
- 42:27in the morning and you celebrate God, this is the
- 42:29day the Lord has made. Who made the day? Not
- 42:32the Lord and Satan. The Lord hath made. Therefore I
- 42:35rejoice anything frightening my joy today in the name of Jesus.
- 42:39I come against you on account of that declaration. That
- 42:43means my joy was fact taught in the making of
- 42:46that day.
- 42:49Speaker 3: So you find two.
- 42:50Speaker 2: People who live their homes in the morning, please listen
- 42:53on the streets of Legos, someone leaves their home rejoicing,
- 42:56and you say, how are you. They say, I'm fine,
- 42:58They're rejoicing. Get to the office and they said, listen,
- 43:02we decided to choose one person to send abroad.
- 43:05Speaker 3: And you are the person who came to our mind.
- 43:07Speaker 2: And someone is frowning because a marry hats do it
- 43:10good like medicine? Are we together now? But that a
- 43:13broken spirit can dry up the bones. You get up
- 43:18in the morning and you declare the name of Jesus, Joy, joy, unspeakable,
- 43:23full of glory.
- 43:24Speaker 3: No one stops my joy and peace.
- 43:26Speaker 2: Today you have already frustrated the person Satana's position. And
- 43:31every time God sees that something good is coming, you
- 43:35notice things begin to happen around your life, your office.
- 43:38You are angry, your son wants to do something. You're
- 43:40almost going to slap him. No, it's an attack. Because
- 43:44it is with joy we reap. Are we together now?
- 43:52Scripture Prayer models number two. Joy some of you right
- 43:57now as you are here, God has been.
- 43:58Speaker 3: Telling you cheer up.
- 43:59Speaker 2: Since yesterday, what God sent from heaven has refused to arrive.
- 44:03You know why, because gloominess and sadness has created an embargo.
- 44:12Speaker 3: You believe what I'm teaching you. Yes, I am the
- 44:16head and not the tail. Please say it.
- 44:19Speaker 2: Believe what you are saying. Say I'm the head and
- 44:21not the tale. Yes, sir. The Bible says you are
- 44:24above and not beneath. While you are saying that, because
- 44:29Satany said deceiver, he will come and stand around the
- 44:32corridors of your mind and say, with that range issue,
- 44:35what did you say?
- 44:35Speaker 3: Again the head?
- 44:36Speaker 2: Hear yourself, and you'll say it again, I am the
- 44:39head and not the tail. And then you can add,
- 44:42while we look not at the things that are seen,
- 44:45but the things that are unseen.
- 44:47Speaker 3: For the things that are.
- 44:48Speaker 2: Seen are temporal, temporal. The court case temporal, the issue
- 44:54of shame and reproach temporal.
- 44:56Speaker 3: Still looking for the schoolfees of your son, but temp.
- 45:01Speaker 2: Yes, the visa was declined, but temper out.
- 45:09Speaker 3: Temporal.
- 45:10Speaker 2: But the things that are on sen on seen, not unreal,
- 45:14on seen, not unreal. Just because you cannot see it
- 45:18does not mean it doesn't exist. Allelujah, the works of
- 45:27my hands.
- 45:27Speaker 3: Blessed.
- 45:28Speaker 2: God gives you a store. You don't go there and
- 45:30start quarreling and say this, lady, today's your last day.
- 45:33If you don't do you are already frustrating your path
- 45:37to growth. I'm showing you how to participate with Heaven.
- 45:40You step into.
- 45:41Speaker 3: Your mall or your store, excuse.
- 45:44Speaker 2: Yourself for a minute, and close the door. In the
- 45:46name of Jesus. The Bible says everything I do is blessed.
- 45:50Speaker 3: Is it in your Bible? Whatsoever he do it? Help me?
- 45:55Whatsoever he do it?
- 45:57Speaker 2: You step into that store, lay your hands and saying
- 45:59the name of Jesus. God is bringing strategic people. Relationships
- 46:04are coming to me today, not useless relationships. Destiny defining relationships.
- 46:11Trouble makers are far from my destiny. God is bringing
- 46:15the right people. You get up and you expect favor.
- 46:20The Bible says it's message, and you every morning, have
- 46:23you received.
- 46:23Speaker 3: Today's old.
- 46:27Speaker 2: The Claring Scripture, the Claring Scripture, the Claring Scripture. You
- 46:33get up and you find yourself that you were somewhere,
- 46:38you fell into a ditcher and you died. Bring yourself
- 46:42back to life by waking up.
- 46:45Speaker 3: That death in the dream should end. There are way together.
- 46:50Speaker 2: And then you don't just get up and say, God forbid,
- 46:52God forbid. It is not prayer, God forbid based on
- 46:55what you see, the things that we keep saying that
- 46:59makes a prayer effective.
- 47:00Speaker 3: God forbid.
- 47:01Speaker 2: I know you are sincere, but the rem of the
- 47:03spirit does not work like that. There has to be
- 47:05a basis based on what the Bible said. I said
- 47:10before you life and death a shama, I said, before
- 47:15your blessing and cousin, who is God speaking to this morning?
- 47:18He said, choose life. Choose life. One of the ways
- 47:21you choose life is to verbalize it. If I tell
- 47:25you choose between this flower and this monitor. One of
- 47:29the ways you by pointing, and then you can say
- 47:31I choose the flower loud enough for me to hear you.
- 47:35You cannot tell me you choose the flower.
- 47:37Speaker 3: Then I give you this.
- 47:38Speaker 2: It means I'm a deceiver. God says, choose life. Choose life.
- 47:45Choose life. When men say there is a casting down,
- 47:51my declaration in the name of the Lord, and add
- 47:54your children in that confession, that they shall say there
- 47:57is a lifting up. I'm challenging every month here, don't
- 48:01keep quiet. This is not the time to keep quiet.
- 48:04Sat And is looking for families he would destroy, looking
- 48:07for men that you would shred their testimonies. Do you
- 48:10know that the spirit of depression. The first thing that
- 48:14the spirit of depression does is it brings you to
- 48:16a point of silence. Find out people who are depressed.
- 48:21They've come to a point where they've given up on life,
- 48:24and they just keep quiet. Sir, you know there is
- 48:28a way, and it just keeps quiet. After five minutes,
- 48:30it says that person is almost dying. But thou, o,
- 48:38Lord had a shield for me, my glory, You lived
- 48:45my head. But now, oh Lord, and.
- 48:52Speaker 3: A shield for me my glory.
- 48:56Speaker 2: The lift her up my head singing one time, but
- 49:03Lord had a sheep from me, my glory. You lived
- 49:10my head, But now Lord had a sheep from me.
- 49:26Many of you have heard me say, there are some
- 49:28of you. The only thing that comes out of your
- 49:30mouth is why is it that everybody hates me? First,
- 49:34you are a liar, because it's impossible to be hated
- 49:37by everybody. You may have heard me say that even
- 49:40Satan is not hated by everybody.
- 49:42Speaker 3: There are people who know that he's the devil and
- 49:45still love him.
- 49:46Speaker 2: There are wives that agreed to spend their lives with terrorists.
- 49:50Am I right on that they know the person is
- 49:52an assasin, is a killer, And yet you went and
- 49:55met her parents and the lady was willing. Everybody cannot
- 49:59hate you. Is the devil deceiving you. And what you
- 50:03need is one person sent by God who loves you.
- 50:07Speaker 3: One how many.
- 50:08Speaker 2: One, I tell you one how many people had to
- 50:12love Joseph to become a prime minister? Ten fifteen one
- 50:19one one. So when you get up in the morning, further,
- 50:24in the name of Jesus, there has to be someone
- 50:27who delights in my son to hold his hands and
- 50:30lift him to be great. I'm calling that person forth
- 50:33by prophecy. When Jesus was born as a little baby,
- 50:38there were wise men that saw the stars.
- 50:40Speaker 3: Is that in your Bible.
- 50:41Speaker 2: The Bible says, they took gifts of gold of Frankin
- 50:44says and Ma, and they came to greet baby Jesus,
- 50:48not entrepreneur Jesus, not save your Jesus. The Clarin scripture,
- 50:58the Clarin scripture, clearing scripture. Go back home on your
- 51:02way home. Even if it's only one scripture. You know,
- 51:05weary life. With that scripture, Speak it until it becomes
- 51:09a reality. Declare you that THU might test be justified.
- 51:13There are no assumptions in the spirit. Let me tell
- 51:16you the truth. If I did not understand this model,
- 51:19I submit to you by the integrity of God's word,
- 51:21I would have died a long time ago. A long
- 51:25time ago. Don't just accept everything that comes to your life.
- 51:33Speaker 3: Build a garrison with the word, and.
- 51:36Speaker 2: Don't wait for someone to just speak it over you. You
- 51:39are principally the first prophet of your life. Principally allelujah.
- 51:50The Bible says, I will multiply them. They shall not
- 51:54be few. I will glorify them, they shall not be small.
- 51:59Speak that over your business. The Bible says, in some
- 52:02one twelve parents, this is a woman conference blessed is
- 52:06the man that shared the Lord who delighted greatly in
- 52:10his commands. His seed shall be mighty. I say, mother,
- 52:13you would declare I didn't give back to pain. Now
- 52:16it is not my child that will send me to
- 52:18my grave. In the name of Jesus, every spirit trying
- 52:22to turn this boy to become a disappointment.
- 52:24Speaker 3: I am not discouraged.
- 52:26Speaker 2: I look beyond that turborn child, and I see it
- 52:29giant rising. Because the Bible says he said, shall be mighty.
- 52:36See it shall be mighty, Seid shall be mighty. Are
- 52:41we together you declare over this church that is not
- 52:45only spiritually viberand men and women who are rise, but
- 52:49people who are great, people of means, and people of
- 52:54capacity Genesis seventeen, number six. I will make the excitating food,
- 53:00fully says, give it to ords, please, and I will
- 53:04make nations of D. And kings shall come out of D,
- 53:09not kings shall come to you. Does that sound like
- 53:12what comes out of a woman. So what you are
- 53:14holding called a baby is a king royalty greatness. You're
- 53:19my glory, the lifter up my head. You're my glory.
- 53:31So prayer model number one, let's do a quick recap
- 53:33praying in the spirit training tongues number two declaring scriptures
- 53:39in prayer, can I give you number three? Number three
- 53:42is called the prayer of inquiry. This is a very
- 53:48powerful model. Please follow carefully the Prayer of inquiry.
- 53:53Speaker 3: That means you can in the place of prayer.
- 53:56Speaker 2: The purpose of that prayer is not to declare the
- 53:58purpose of.
- 53:59Speaker 3: That prayer is to come back with answers.
- 54:02Speaker 2: The Prayer of inquiry first some weld chapter thirty, Please
- 54:07and verse eight. First some well, chapter thirty. It's God
- 54:12helping someone's prayer life. Let's read it together, please if
- 54:15you can see, are you ready? Want to read?
- 54:17Speaker 3: Please?
- 54:18Speaker 2: And David inquired at the Lord, saying, shall I pursue
- 54:23after this troop? Shall I overtake them? And he answered
- 54:28him pursue, for thou shalt surely overtake them and without
- 54:34fail recover all. This is the kind of prayer to
- 54:40pray before you take major, sensitive, destiny defining decisions. The
- 54:48Prayer of inquiry. Do you know why this prayer is important?
- 54:52Because the Bible says, there is a way that semeth
- 54:55right onto a man. Believe us, listen to me. There
- 54:58is a way that cemeath right on to a preacher.
- 55:01There is this way that semath right onto a young graduate.
- 55:05There is a way that semath right onto a Nigerian.
- 55:09But the Bible says the end. You can see it
- 55:13looking very attractive. I hope you know Satan does not
- 55:16use evil alone to destroy.
- 55:19Speaker 3: When he uses.
- 55:19Speaker 2: Evil and you can detect it, you will use good.
- 55:22For instance, AVISAU on your passport, AVISA on your passport
- 55:28does not necessarily mean God wants you to relocate.
- 55:32Speaker 3: Now, there's nothing wrong with relocating. Are we together?
- 55:36Speaker 2: But I'm saying that there are many times Satan will
- 55:39use good things to destroy you. Sometimes an employment letter
- 55:43can be the worst thing that would have happened to you.
- 55:50What God intends to give you is not good against
- 55:53evil this life, because both good and evil came from
- 55:56the same tree. So there are times that Said will
- 56:00use a lot of good. If he sees that you
- 56:03are fighting bad friends, he will bring good friends who
- 56:05can destroy you. The most important thing is that you
- 56:08are destroyed.
- 56:11Speaker 3: Are we together?
- 56:12Speaker 2: When Satan came to Jesus, how many of you know
- 56:15that what he used for his temptations, the raw material
- 56:18for tempting Jesus was it is written. He did not
- 56:23tell him go and take a bottle of some alcohol
- 56:26that the Roman soldiers take. No, he came and said
- 56:28it is written. He shat put his angel shat. I mean,
- 56:32if you hear someone quoting scripture that much you want
- 56:35that present to be your friend. And yet the name
- 56:37of the person quotinity Satan. So just because something carries the.
- 56:43Speaker 3: Carriage of good, I pray that God.
- 56:45Speaker 2: Is helping someone this morning. There are many good things
- 56:48that are destructive to your destiny. I tell you sincerely,
- 56:53many good things. You must stand the power to reject good, good.
- 56:58Speaker 3: And bad things.
- 57:00Speaker 2: Programming that makes you frown on all at only bad
- 57:03things you would have given yourself cheaply to Satan. Weapons
- 57:09are fashioned, and fashioning is a product of study. What
- 57:15is this person? What does this person want at this point? Oh,
- 57:18you are so lonely. You need a good friend, and
- 57:22Satan will bring somebody who is sincere but not wise.
- 57:26That person becomes a reason for your destruction. Everything you
- 57:30tell that person, he or she will go and tell everybody.
- 57:33Because he brought somebody who was not working with the
- 57:36weakness of managing relationships.
- 57:39Speaker 3: The person is not evil. The person is just not wise.
- 57:45Speaker 2: Oh, we'll see trusting God for a child who's really okay,
- 57:48let's pray. And then the next thing you see another
- 57:51person sending you a text in the night that which
- 57:53we are looking for, that I've heard about. May God
- 57:56give you? And you're saying, where did this come from?
- 57:58Speaker 3: Now? Good things can destroy you.
- 58:05Speaker 2: Many good things have destroyed the destiny many many Do
- 58:12you believe what you are hearing?
- 58:14Speaker 3: Should I pursue? Should I overtake? You?
- 58:18Speaker 2: See, sometimes when all the variables are there, chances are
- 58:25excellent that you may develop pride and not need God again.
- 58:30Speaker 3: The certificate is there.
- 58:32Speaker 2: My uncle is now a senator, which is an advantage. Oh,
- 58:37my sister in America told me, you just submit this.
- 58:40There's an assurance that in one month your passport to
- 58:43be stamped. At that point, it doesn't make sense to
- 58:46ask God should I pursue? Because you suspect what if
- 58:50He says no? In the presence of all these great opportunities.
- 58:54Do you know why many people don't ask God for answers.
- 58:56Speaker 3: They suspect that you will reject it. And you are.
- 59:00You are mostly right.
- 59:04Speaker 2: Because the moment you start asking God, that means you
- 59:08are saying I am willing to work with whatever you
- 59:10tell me. The way we fight God is proved that
- 59:13we were not serious about asking him.
- 59:15Speaker 3: Should I posh you?
- 59:18Speaker 2: You've already prepared the horse, You've dressed the horse, You've
- 59:21climbed on the chariots, you are ready to go. The
- 59:23horse has even started a movie as God. Should I
- 59:25post you? Saw that to be your record that I
- 59:28ask you, and God will say, come back?
- 59:30Speaker 3: And he said, I knew it.
- 59:31Speaker 2: I reject that spirit it can be God. The Bible
- 59:35says the path.
- 59:35Speaker 3: Of the job.
- 59:36Speaker 2: So you were not really serious about inquiring. Let me
- 59:39tell you how to hear from God. Be willing to
- 59:42accept any answer as a sign that you trust his
- 59:47will for your life. If not, your hearing will always
- 59:50be wrong. I can tell you ninety percent of our
- 59:53prayer of inquiry we already have our answers.
- 59:57Speaker 3: What we are.
- 59:58Speaker 2: Largely doing is hoping God agrees with you.
- 1:00:02Speaker 3: That's the truth. How do I know that?
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: The difficulty the way we fight God back after he speaks.
- 1:00:09If you're fortunate and your answer, his answer is consistent
- 1:00:12with what you've always wanted, then you now say, now
- 1:00:15I knew it. I knew it God, should I start
- 1:00:18that business. I already have my ten million. I'm not
- 1:00:20as giving you for money. Just give me permission, and
- 1:00:23God says, go ahead, and you rejoice, say this is.
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: The kind of God I want to serve. But while you.
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: Are praying and God says that ten million is not
- 1:00:31for you, bring it to the king's court.
- 1:00:34Speaker 3: He say, what did I say?
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: No, God cannot do this kind of bad thing, knowing
- 1:00:39how Nigeria is now, This is not God. This is
- 1:00:41a familiar spirit, and I cost that spirit.
- 1:00:46Speaker 3: God.
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: If it's you verify and your first dream becomes somebody
- 1:00:50that God uses, maybe it's even me. I would say, Oh,
- 1:00:52beg God, as he has said, you got up and ansayer,
- 1:00:55I hate all these people. No I don't. The prayer
- 1:01:02of inquiry is a very risky prayer adventure. You must
- 1:01:07love God and trust him to delve into this one
- 1:01:11because it would disrupt many of your plans. But one
- 1:01:14assurance I live with you is the kind of glory
- 1:01:17that will come out of your life.
- 1:01:19Speaker 3: When God directs you. When He led them, when he let.
- 1:01:25Speaker 2: Them, Moses said, do not let us depart from here.
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: Let me tell you this.
- 1:01:30Speaker 2: Sometimes using a frame of mind and a frame of thinking.
- 1:01:35Our plans can be so beautiful based on how we've
- 1:01:39seen it. But how many of you know that His
- 1:01:42thoughts are higher than your thoughts? Help me that His
- 1:01:45way is higher than your ways. God's thoughts will always
- 1:01:51be infinitely better and greater than whatever I imagine. But
- 1:01:58you see, one thing with God is that He does
- 1:02:01not strive with the spirit of man for long. There
- 1:02:06are people today who have lost in business because God
- 1:02:09told them, they pretended they did not hear him. When
- 1:02:13the Holy Spirit comes to you, comes to you and
- 1:02:15you keep resisting him, he will honor you and leave you.
- 1:02:18But for that consequence, you can be sure you go
- 1:02:21through it. Please ask God questions You don't need to
- 1:02:28ask God's silly questions like should I wear a black
- 1:02:32shoe and white shoe? He says, the answer is in
- 1:02:34your brain that one God.
- 1:02:35Speaker 3: Has given You. Don't have to make a mockery of
- 1:02:37God like that.
- 1:02:38Speaker 2: But let me tell you, I am convinced that in
- 1:02:42a man's life, you will not make more than ten
- 1:02:45or twenty destiny defining decisions. Destiny defining decisions are not many.
- 1:02:52It is at such times when seasons are about to
- 1:02:55change when certain decisions.
- 1:03:00Speaker 3: God. For instance, where do I.
- 1:03:03Speaker 2: Relocate for the next twenty years with my children?
- 1:03:05Speaker 3: That's not something to.
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: Make over Coffee destinies? Who suffer from it? Am always
- 1:03:12sting your time? Yes, who do I marry? How many
- 1:03:17children do I have?
- 1:03:19Speaker 3: Lord?
- 1:03:20Speaker 2: There are five men coming and honestly based on me.
- 1:03:23Speaker 3: Or this second one.
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: This is the kind of potential I'm saying there is
- 1:03:28very convincing.
- 1:03:31Speaker 3: Is that true?
- 1:03:32Speaker 2: You've not read of people who turned from grass, from
- 1:03:38what was grace to grass, and others who went from
- 1:03:43grass to grace.
- 1:03:44Speaker 3: You would have looked at David.
- 1:03:46Speaker 2: If you saw David in the wilderness and you took
- 1:03:49David to your home, maybe they would drive David away,
- 1:03:53But that was a king you were driving away. Honestly,
- 1:03:56let me tell you to be kindily minded. Truly is dead,
- 1:04:00but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. It
- 1:04:04is only God who knows the future of men's destinies.
- 1:04:07And there are times you need to lock up yourself.
- 1:04:10You have an opportunity for a great job an oil company,
- 1:04:15and then God is calling you into ministry. Don't assume
- 1:04:19you can assume you are calling to ministry and reject
- 1:04:21the oil company and find out you were not called
- 1:04:24into the five fold ministry. You think I would say
- 1:04:29the other way around. There are times where you are
- 1:04:31not called the oil company. Was what you would have taken?
- 1:04:35Are you rejected? Just assuming that because you would so
- 1:04:38assive God did not call you?
- 1:04:40Speaker 3: And at a point you say what is wrong? And
- 1:04:41God will say I.
- 1:04:42Speaker 2: Call you generally, but not to disassignment. Every wrong decision
- 1:04:49wasteing your destiny. Some of you make cheerless destiny decisions
- 1:04:54and prayed made the God of messy, and praying again
- 1:04:58made the God.
- 1:04:59Speaker 3: Of messy help you.
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: You made the God of messy come true for you
- 1:05:04in the name of Jesus Christ. When I began to
- 1:05:08sense in my heart that God would have me leave
- 1:05:11Zaria to Abuja, I loved Zaria so much. I mean,
- 1:05:14ministry was going exceptionally well. God was doing something within
- 1:05:18that region that had not seen since I came there.
- 1:05:21It was it was. It was a season of fear
- 1:05:24no mid that ministerial strides. How does God come in
- 1:05:28the midst of nothing? Announ says.
- 1:05:30Speaker 3: I struggled with God for three years.
- 1:05:34Speaker 2: And there are prayers where you say, God confirm your
- 1:05:36back for trouble. God will confirm it any way. You
- 1:05:39will use dreams, a scripture, visions, enemies, friends, everything, you
- 1:05:43confirm it God for you. It's interesting to know how
- 1:05:48I finally come in Abuja. It was during COVID. I
- 1:05:54just returned from London, where the last sets of people
- 1:05:56to live, and I thank God for that. I would
- 1:05:58have been trapped in that place for three months. I
- 1:06:01returned back to a Buja preparing to go for a
- 1:06:04miracle service in Xaria. When they just announce the lockdown,
- 1:06:08say nobody's going anywhere.
- 1:06:10Speaker 3: I stayed in Abuja and that was it.
- 1:06:15Speaker 2: You see that now, But I use that opportunity alone.
- 1:06:20I started praying and God said, finally, now that I
- 1:06:23have your attention, this is the new season. Finally we're
- 1:06:28stepping into okay. I started praying by the map of Abuja,
- 1:06:32the map of Nigeria, the map of Africa, the map
- 1:06:35of the globe. Keep praying on it. That is your assignment.
- 1:06:40I look at myself now and wonder what if I
- 1:06:43resisted and say, you don't know what you are doing.
- 1:06:45You are not in Xaria. Oh God, I'm the one
- 1:06:47who knows what is happening. He will leave you, but
- 1:06:50you will see that you will keep seeing things in
- 1:06:52the spirit that you are rising, and it will never
- 1:06:54manifest for some of you. After this conference, go for
- 1:06:58a retreat. Bring your major plans for this year and
- 1:07:03for the next ten years. Don't assume take this as
- 1:07:06a prophetic instruction. Don't assume you are about to take
- 1:07:12decisions that affect your establishment. Don't hurry decisions. No, it's
- 1:07:18worthy to. If you get a decision right, it can
- 1:07:21redeem twenty years. You miss out on a decision is
- 1:07:25like the hand of the clock. Need to come back,
- 1:07:27but time will be lost, and destiny is measured as
- 1:07:31a unit of time. Who is God speaking to? Please
- 1:07:34go for a retreat to after this conference. Thank God
- 1:07:37for the women. Go for a retreat. Lord, I'm not
- 1:07:41going to make this major financial decision, major marital decision,
- 1:07:48major ministerial decision. I cry onto you, the God of
- 1:07:51all grace, Speak to me, what is the next season
- 1:07:54of my life? Church is quiet. I'm assuming that the
- 1:08:05Word is entering your spirit. Prayse the name of the Lord.
- 1:08:09That's why you can see ordinary people who don't look
- 1:08:12like it, but their decisions are always destiny defining you
- 1:08:16know why they have mastered the art of engaging this prayer. God,
- 1:08:21should I poss you, should die?
- 1:08:23Speaker 3: Overtake?
- 1:08:24Speaker 2: Should I poss you? You will see a building that
- 1:08:27does not make sense, and the spirit of God tells you,
- 1:08:30let's go to the place of prayer first for two days.
- 1:08:32By the second day, God will tell you this building
- 1:08:35you see, a company is coming to buy it in
- 1:08:37two months. Buy it now. You will sell it for
- 1:08:40ten times the price. Buy it now or that people
- 1:08:43they leave, all these cakers. But because you had him,
- 1:08:46you can just go with child like faith and even
- 1:08:50make it deposit, just to trap it down.
- 1:08:52Speaker 3: Two weeks later, people are calling you and saying X
- 1:08:55y Z. You say, I can't believe it is it
- 1:08:57is calm, He.
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: Said, no, they need this building whatever price, name your
- 1:09:02price a profit and commit at everything. We still want
- 1:09:05it and someone will look at you us. How is
- 1:09:08your life working like this? The power of hearing from God.
- 1:09:14This is the model that many of our fathers in
- 1:09:17the faith totals. They will tell you God said this,
- 1:09:20look at where our CCG is. For instance.
- 1:09:22Speaker 3: You know, every time I have the opportunity to pass.
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: That place, I imagine, if God told me to go
- 1:09:29to that place, I will most likely disobey. Honestly, I'm
- 1:09:32being sincere with you under God, I will most likely
- 1:09:34I ask him for forgiveness later on, but most likely
- 1:09:37I would have disobeyed. When you see the end point
- 1:09:41of prophecy, it looks glorious, but you rewind in your
- 1:09:44mind and see that bush. That's when you see the
- 1:09:46power of hearing God. But I know whom I have believed,
- 1:09:52and I am persuaded that He is able to keep
- 1:09:55that which is committed onto him against that day behind
- 1:09:59the giants strides that trail believers is obedience to something
- 1:10:06there shore. God said, Can.
- 1:10:08Speaker 3: I tell you this, if you take a step.
- 1:10:12Speaker 2: Knowing and or believing it was God that led you,
- 1:10:16and God sees the sincerity of your heart, even if
- 1:10:19you are in error, he would defend you for His namesake.
- 1:10:22This is one thing I know about God. That means
- 1:10:25if I walk through this led believing that it was
- 1:10:28a door and believing that it was God that told
- 1:10:32me to walk there, God would carry a door and
- 1:10:35put there for my sake. To make sure that it
- 1:10:38is not that I trusting him is a risk. Look
- 1:10:41at what he told Peter. If it be dou bid me, come, Peter,
- 1:10:45very fine. This is an example of such prayer. Peter said,
- 1:10:48tell me if you are the one, and he said come.
- 1:10:52Peter took the step of faith. But because he was thinking,
- 1:10:55God took responsibility. It was at my word and he
- 1:10:59held him. Don't be afraid of obeying God. There is
- 1:11:04a system to defend his name in your life. Sometimes
- 1:11:08when you become too calculative and scientific.
- 1:11:12Speaker 3: Okay, God, you've told me this world.
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: Let's consider We will review this again in twenty twenty seven.
- 1:11:16It will work that way.
- 1:11:17Speaker 3: There are times you have to trust God.
- 1:11:19Speaker 2: And work on water. This is a word for someone.
- 1:11:22You have to trust God and walk on water. Being
- 1:11:25unnecessarily scientific will not get you forward. He said, Register
- 1:11:30the company. Don't ask questions. Go and register the company.
- 1:11:34Where will I get the contract? Leave that to God.
- 1:11:36You take a stepe of faith, he says. Go for
- 1:11:39a three day retreat. Don't say God, what for is disobedience?
- 1:11:43Speaker 3: You just go dear first.
- 1:11:45Speaker 2: After the first day, you are prayed, you are hungry.
- 1:11:48You don't even know what you are doing in that room.
- 1:11:50You just stay there. The answer is coming. Let me
- 1:11:56give you the last one. You agree with me this
- 1:12:03morning to challenge your prayer life. I hope we're still together.
- 1:12:07Let's review number one, praying in the spirit. Number two,
- 1:12:13Number three, the prayer of inquiry. Can I give you
- 1:12:16number four? The second? The fourth model of prayer is warfare.
- 1:12:23Warfare warfare. This one I would not even be tempted
- 1:12:27to delvin. I will just touch it in a hurry.
- 1:12:30Else will spend the whole day.
- 1:12:32Speaker 3: Here warfare prayer, warfare prayer.
- 1:12:48Speaker 2: Philippians, Chapter one and verse nineteen. The assignment of warfare
- 1:12:52prayer is to establish the realities that have been finished
- 1:12:56in Christ, to make them manifest in your life.
- 1:12:59Speaker 3: I like how Bible puts it.
- 1:13:01Speaker 2: To turn anything to your salvation is the assignment of
- 1:13:04warfare prayer. Warfare prayer is not about fighting demons. It's
- 1:13:08not about fighting spirits. Is establishing the victory that is
- 1:13:13already wrote in Christ. Are we together over spirits, over situations,
- 1:13:18over circumstances. I like the way the Bible puts it
- 1:13:21to turn things for your salvation. It says, for I
- 1:13:25know that this shall turn to my salvation. How through
- 1:13:30your prayers and the supply.
- 1:13:33Speaker 3: Of the spirit of Jesus Christ.
- 1:13:36Speaker 2: I know that this disappointment, I know that this attack
- 1:13:42my God. There are things every believer must know. I
- 1:13:45know that this family crisis, I know that this court case.
- 1:13:50The assignment of warfare is to turn anything to your advantage,
- 1:13:55anything anything to your advantage. There are times when you
- 1:14:02come close to a tree when you don't plug the
- 1:14:05fruits on time, they start rottening and.
- 1:14:07Speaker 3: They fall to the ground.
- 1:14:09Speaker 2: But the earth has a unique way of turning everything
- 1:14:11to the advantage of the soil away together. It now
- 1:14:14becomes manure, something that you see bringing flies and smelling around,
- 1:14:18and the eath is not threatened by it. It's a
- 1:14:21mentality you must have, a say believer, you must look
- 1:14:24at everything from the standpoint of God's sovereign plan. There
- 1:14:28is still a way God can get glory from this.
- 1:14:30You were sent away from your walk. Okay, the deed
- 1:14:33has been done. What else can be done from this?
- 1:14:36I know that even in the midst of this, it
- 1:14:38can still turn for my salvation. This was Pull's mentality
- 1:14:43when he got into prison. He will not sit down
- 1:14:45and say God, why me? He would use your opportunity
- 1:14:48in the prison because he knew something He would write
- 1:14:51letters to the churches and say, I hear that you
- 1:14:53are misbehaving. I'm soon coming out of this prison. I
- 1:14:55will come and visit you. But in the meantime correct this.
- 1:14:59Correct that he was a man who knew that to
- 1:15:02leave is Christ and even to die is gain.
- 1:15:06Speaker 3: You must know this.
- 1:15:08Speaker 2: Warfare prayer is predicated on an understanding that all things
- 1:15:12work together for good. Please sear me to them that
- 1:15:16love God, not to everybody. All things work together for good,
- 1:15:20to them that love God, and to them who are
- 1:15:23the called according to His purposes. Believe that all things
- 1:15:29are working for your good. Truly believe it. The disappointment,
- 1:15:33the joblessness, including what you think is happening nationally. Lord,
- 1:15:38I don't know how you do this, but because I
- 1:15:40am the called, he must work for my good in
- 1:15:43the name of Jesus Christ. Work for my good, and
- 1:15:46you engage in the place of prayer. Are we together?
- 1:15:55Speaker 3: Scriptural prayer model.
- 1:15:57Speaker 2: You may want to correct that I see someone projecting
- 1:15:59my message. Scriptural prayer models ends with an S. Scriptural
- 1:16:05prayer Models, Please thank you. Scriptural prayer models.
- 1:16:12Speaker 3: Warfare.
- 1:16:14Speaker 2: Now, there are people who do not believe in warfare
- 1:16:17prayer It depends.
- 1:16:19Speaker 3: On what you call warfare.
- 1:16:22Speaker 2: I personally do not believe in an endless struggle of
- 1:16:25fighting demons and fighting spirits with.
- 1:16:28Speaker 3: No victory in view.
- 1:16:29Speaker 2: That becomes an insult to what Christ has done on
- 1:16:32the cross.
- 1:16:32Speaker 3: Are we together? Yes?
- 1:16:34Speaker 2: However, let me assure you that nothing gets established on
- 1:16:38its own Satan and all on clean spirits as toop
- 1:16:41bornd spirits, meaning that they have a passion to insist
- 1:16:46on your pain until you disengage them by light. I
- 1:16:52desire to come to you, even I Paul once and again,
- 1:16:56he said, But Satan hindered us. Owing that victory has
- 1:17:01been wrought in Christ does not threaten Satan is engaging
- 1:17:05and appropriating that victory that threatens him.
- 1:17:08Speaker 3: Satan is not afraid of scripture.
- 1:17:10Speaker 2: He's afraid of the believer who understands how to engage scripture.
- 1:17:15Speaker 3: For your profiting. Allelujah.
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: He will kill anything he is allowed to kill, steal
- 1:17:23anything he is allowed to steal. And you believe me
- 1:17:25on this, destroy anything he's allowed to destroy. This is
- 1:17:30the assignment of warfare. Prayer, haven't done all to stand stand.
- 1:17:36Don't assume that God loves your children so much. There
- 1:17:39will be nice, wonderful, and.
- 1:17:40Speaker 3: Discipline people engaging the spirit.
- 1:17:43Speaker 2: When you see the cloud, when you see the formation
- 1:17:45of darkness, that is the time to take on your
- 1:17:48priestly regalia and get to the place of prayer. The
- 1:17:52Bible says if you turn aside in the day of adversity,
- 1:17:57there is a day in everybody's life called the day
- 1:18:00of adversity. You don't have to be good or bad.
- 1:18:03He informs you. Pray, informs you so that number one,
- 1:18:07you build prayer strength, prayer power for those days, and
- 1:18:11that when those days come.
- 1:18:12Speaker 3: You can engage.
- 1:18:13Speaker 2: There are times that it looks like all hell have
- 1:18:16chosen to break loose over you, your.
- 1:18:19Speaker 3: Marriage, your children, your health.
- 1:18:21Speaker 2: Are we together?
- 1:18:22Speaker 3: Now?
- 1:18:22Speaker 2: You must know how to engage warfare prayers. Warfare prayers
- 1:18:26are serious times of spiritual adventure.
- 1:18:29Speaker 3: Usually they do not go with you praying alone.
- 1:18:32Speaker 2: There are times you need to draw for the support
- 1:18:34of other brethren, people who love you and understand because
- 1:18:38you need to engage.
- 1:18:39Speaker 3: With power warfare prayer. This is very important. Jesus is
- 1:18:49about to go to the cross.
- 1:18:50Speaker 2: And he goes to get so many and the Bible
- 1:18:53tells us that he locked up in himself and he
- 1:18:55was praying until the the sweat became like blood dripping
- 1:19:00from him. The question is what kind of prayer is
- 1:19:03that that the word incanate the very son of God.
- 1:19:09Speaker 3: There have been times in my life where.
- 1:19:12Speaker 2: I had to engage that kind of prayer. Let me
- 1:19:14give you two information about warfare prayer. Every time seasons
- 1:19:18are about to change, this is the kind of prayer
- 1:19:20you need to engage in because Satan will always start
- 1:19:24at stand at the corridor of new seasons, bird day periods,
- 1:19:29anniversary periods.
- 1:19:31Speaker 3: Do you know it was during I told you yesterday,
- 1:19:33it was.
- 1:19:34Speaker 2: During a man's birthday that the prophets had went away.
- 1:19:38I have taught my people and trained them that before
- 1:19:41you celebrate your birthday, if your birthday is on the twelfth,
- 1:19:45by nine or ten or eleven, you should have some
- 1:19:48time of retreat. Now, not many. It's not a scriptural injunction.
- 1:19:53It's just a prophetic guide. I don't believe in people
- 1:19:57sleeping and snoring themselves into defense finding seasons. No, that
- 1:20:02is a careless Christian in my opinion. Honestly, honestly, when
- 1:20:08Jesus was born, they were reactions in the heavens when
- 1:20:12Jesus was about to be commissioned.
- 1:20:14Speaker 3: They were reactions.
- 1:20:15Speaker 2: When Jesus was about to start the core of his assignment,
- 1:20:18his passion. They were reactions. When he died, they were
- 1:20:22reactions when he resurrected. They were reactions. On the day
- 1:20:26of Pentecosts. They were reactions. There are certain chiros moments
- 1:20:31in our lives where you cannot afford to slumber while
- 1:20:36men slept. There are defining seasons in your life. You're
- 1:20:41about to celebrate your bed They take at least one
- 1:20:44or two days.
- 1:20:45Speaker 3: Let the people celebrate.
- 1:20:46Speaker 2: To lock yourself and pray, especially where you are striking
- 1:20:50very very notable.
- 1:20:52Speaker 3: You know points in life. These are survival strategies.
- 1:20:59Speaker 2: Every Body who wants to live serving the purposes of
- 1:21:02the kingdom and to work in victory most understand warfare prayer.
- 1:21:06I will never allow set and come and roam around
- 1:21:09my vicinity or attended to. I have the responsibility of
- 1:21:14sanitizing my spiritual atmosphere and animalst do that without fail.
- 1:21:18He will not respect the fact that you're a man
- 1:21:20of God. That's not his business. I think I may
- 1:21:24have said it here. Let me say this and then
- 1:21:26one point and we wrap up.
- 1:21:27Speaker 3: There are spirits.
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: Listen, please, There are spirits that are assigned to believers
- 1:21:34the moment to.
- 1:21:35Speaker 3: Get bonn again.
- 1:21:36Speaker 2: They are demonic spirits assigned to sabotage the purposes of
- 1:21:41God in your life.
- 1:21:42Speaker 3: Number two, there.
- 1:21:43Speaker 2: Are spirits that are assigned to ministerial offices. They are
- 1:21:48not assigned to individuals. They are assigned to whatever of
- 1:21:51If God has called it to be an intercessor, there
- 1:21:54are spirits that will look for you. You don't have
- 1:21:56to call them, they will come. They were signed to
- 1:21:59pursue break intercessor because the devil knows the power of
- 1:22:03prophetic intercession. There are spirits that are assigned to regions.
- 1:22:10So you relocated to legos, welcome. But there are spirits.
- 1:22:16It's not only Bureau of Statistics that are where you came.
- 1:22:19There are spirits who are where you have arrived. Do
- 1:22:23you know why? They begin to mold you to look
- 1:22:26like the deformities within that territory. If that territory is
- 1:22:30known for poverty, if you like being multimillionaire, if you
- 1:22:34don't have spiritual intelligence, you can step into that territory
- 1:22:38and mysteriously things.
- 1:22:39Speaker 3: Will start going bad. It's true. It's true.
- 1:22:46Speaker 2: One court case after another, one trouble after another, or
- 1:22:50they will tell you that three of your relatives need
- 1:22:52a kidney transplant sixteen thousand per one? Can you bring
- 1:22:56up fifty million? And all these troubles just plague you
- 1:22:59in a moment you try to look like the spirit
- 1:23:02of the region. I wish I were lying to you.
- 1:23:09I would have just told you I'm sorry. But it's
- 1:23:11true that also includes over seas. Oh, overseas does not
- 1:23:20have a special closeness to the throne room. No, it's
- 1:23:24just that the people are a lot more enlightened than
- 1:23:26we are now, and their policies work a lot better
- 1:23:29than it does here. But as far as the attack
- 1:23:32of spirits, the whole act lies in wickedness. You will
- 1:23:35find spirits everywhere. Now, imagine the spirits that attack you
- 1:23:39as a believer, thean a man of God. Spirits that
- 1:23:42attack families because there is a prophet, there is an
- 1:23:45apostle that is coming there, and you don't even know
- 1:23:47where the attack is coming from. You would have looked
- 1:23:50at all of these people in the Bible and seeing
- 1:23:52the kind of attack that came over them.
- 1:23:55Speaker 3: What is the what am I looking for now?
- 1:23:57Speaker 2: I'm sure Mary would look at a child and say,
- 1:23:59why do they want kill my baby? As for me,
- 1:24:06I've made a covenant with God that force longer timer life.
- 1:24:10I will keep Satan far from my life. The ministry
- 1:24:15God has given me and everybody God has brought under
- 1:24:18my care, I take it as a responsibility. One thing
- 1:24:22I can tell you, Satan is not He's not a friend,
- 1:24:25he's not an adviser. There is no discussion you should
- 1:24:28have with Satan.
- 1:24:29Speaker 3: He is evil. That he told me of evil.
- 1:24:32Speaker 2: He will kill anything he's allowed to kill. I've been
- 1:24:36sick before. I know what it means to have mysterious infirmities.
- 1:24:45Speaker 3: Warfare prayers.
- 1:24:47Speaker 2: Let me give you the final one. Has God spoken
- 1:24:50to someone? How many have we considered? Number one? Praying
- 1:24:58in the spirit, number two, declaring scriptures in prayer? Number three,
- 1:25:03the prayer of inquiry, number four, warfare prayers number five,
- 1:25:08And this will be the final one. There are many
- 1:25:10models that I will stop here. The Prayer of Thanksgiving.
- 1:25:18I will tell you how this prayer.
- 1:25:19Speaker 3: Works, very powerful.
- 1:25:23Speaker 2: The Prayer of Thanksgiving colloss four and verse two. Of
- 1:25:30course theater, let's read together, Ready one to go? Please
- 1:25:35continue in prayer and watch in the same with thanksgiving
- 1:25:40one more time. Continue in prayer and watch in the
- 1:25:45same with Thanksgiving, he says, continue in prayer and while.
- 1:25:51Speaker 3: You watch, engage add to that.
- 1:25:53Speaker 2: Prayer model Thanksgiving. Let me tell you how this prayer works.
- 1:25:59You convert your request to thanks as an act of faith. Father,
- 1:26:04I thank you because I am the head and not
- 1:26:06the tail. Are you getting that now? I thank you
- 1:26:08because in the name of Jesus I am blessed. I
- 1:26:11thank you because I declare that it is well with me.
- 1:26:15So it's like you are adding declarations. But this time
- 1:26:19around Thanksgiving is what was just what you are saying, Lord,
- 1:26:24I give you thanks. There are times that your entire
- 1:26:26prayer scope can just be God, I thank you. The
- 1:26:29thanksgiving can come in a song. The thanksgiving can come
- 1:26:33any dance. The thanksgiving can come. Usually this kind of
- 1:26:37prayer is back top with giving. Please listen you want
- 1:26:41to engage this prayer model. It does not just end
- 1:26:45by saying thank you. Usually in the midst of your praying,
- 1:26:50God will place it in your heart to support that
- 1:26:53prayer with the seed. With understanding it's true, continue in
- 1:27:01prayer and watching the same with Thanksgiving Philippians, chapter four,
- 1:27:05verse six.
- 1:27:06Speaker 3: Be anxious for.
- 1:27:07Speaker 2: Nothing, the Bible says, but in everything, by prayer and supplication.
- 1:27:14You see there again with thanksgiving. Connect thanksgiving to the prayer.
- 1:27:21He said, let your request be made known onto God Father.
- 1:27:26I thank you because the Bible declares, many are the
- 1:27:28afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivered them from him,
- 1:27:32from them all. I thank you because I'm delivered. I'm escaped,
- 1:27:35like the bird escapes from the snare of the faller.
- 1:27:39I thank you because my day is blessed. I thank
- 1:27:42you because it is well with me, it is well
- 1:27:44with my children. Thanksgiving is what proceeds from that prayer.
- 1:27:49And sometimes when you don't have anything to say, you
- 1:27:51sing your thanks, you dance your thanks. It is still prayer,
- 1:27:56a powerful prayer model. In fact, allelujah. I think it's
- 1:28:03God savant Bishop Debidopo who said the last digit in
- 1:28:06the in the thanks in the faith equation it thanksgiving.
- 1:28:10You know, like you press a number zero zero seven, seven, seven,
- 1:28:15one one two two, that last digit is Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving.
- 1:28:23Thanksgiving is one of the pillers that sustain joy. When
- 1:28:28you give thanks it can turn morning to dancing. It
- 1:28:31can turn sorrow to joy because thanksgiving mandates first that
- 1:28:36you will reminisce on the faithfulness of God past. It's
- 1:28:40impossible to give thanks without recalling the things he did yesterday,
- 1:28:44in as much as you are trusting him to do
- 1:28:46something now. Thanksgiving, Lord, I thank you for what you
- 1:28:50did yesterday. I thank you for my children. Now they
- 1:28:55are looking for jobs. But I thank you because while
- 1:28:58they were in secondary school, there was a time I
- 1:29:00did not even know where their school fees who come from? Lord,
- 1:29:03I give you praise that all these children today, that
- 1:29:06my son is a professor today, I remember when he
- 1:29:09was expelled in the secondary school. You have torn my
- 1:29:11son today to be a preacher. I want to give
- 1:29:14you thanks, and it is on account of that I
- 1:29:16can thank you for what you are already doing in
- 1:29:19his life. Lord, I thank you for my grandchildren. And
- 1:29:22someone thinks you are just praising God, you are actually praying.
- 1:29:25It is a powerful prayer model.
- 1:29:31Speaker 3: Allelujah.
- 1:29:34Speaker 2: Where you bless him from your heart, where you cry
- 1:29:37thanksgiving from your heart. You wake up in the morning,
- 1:29:41this is a great day. Lord, I thank you. It
- 1:29:43is only those who are alive that can praise you.
- 1:29:46I want to tell you thank you because you have
- 1:29:48given me breath. I know there are still issues around
- 1:29:51my life, but I take the time to say thank you.
- 1:29:53I take the time to say thank you. We're about
- 1:29:57to pray. I hope you'll be able to elect at
- 1:30:00least one of these models and use while we pray.
- 1:30:05If you praying the spirit alone, you are doing my practice.
- 1:30:08You most practice. They remaining four all of us can
- 1:30:11pray in the spirit. That one is the Holy Spirit
- 1:30:13engaging away together for someone. Perhaps you may start with
- 1:30:17the prayer of Thanksgiving.
- 1:30:20Speaker 3: I see people dropping their prayer request. Okay, so let's
- 1:30:23do that.
- 1:30:23Speaker 2: If you're praying, if you're dropping your request, you can
- 1:30:25drop that so that we do this in the next
- 1:30:28five minutes or thereabout, and we're done. It's it all
- 1:30:31right if I request that we okay, let me just
- 1:30:33give you one minute to write your prayer request, please,
- 1:30:36or just if we can allow people to write, maybe
- 1:30:38help someone with a piece of paper. It doesn't matter
- 1:30:40how now you can pray in the spirit while you
- 1:30:45are writing. Science has proven that you can pray and
- 1:30:48the spirit and write. It doesn't disrupt your ability to write. Allelujah.
- 1:30:56Let me recap the prayer models that I've taught you
- 1:30:58so far. Number one praying the spirit, praying tongues. Number two,
- 1:31:04declaring scriptures in the place of prayer. Number three engaging
- 1:31:11the prayer of inquiry, asking for answers, insisting that the
- 1:31:16answers come because with those answers directions come.
- 1:31:21Speaker 3: Number four warfare prayers.
- 1:31:24Speaker 2: Establishing realities as finished in Christ, even against principalities, powers
- 1:31:31and Antichrist hindrances to your life and destiny.
- 1:31:35Speaker 3: Finally, the prayer of Thanksgiving prayer of Thanksgiving.
- 1:31:48Speaker 2: I want you to add something to that fifth point,

- 1:33:57engage every one of these prayer models. It takes grace
- 1:34:01from God to engage these models faithfully. While we're waiting

- 1:34:07and begin to pray.
- 1:34:08Speaker 3: Asks the Lord for grace.
- 1:34:09Speaker 2: Someone asks your maker, the King of Kings.
- 1:34:13Speaker 3: The King eternal, ask him for grace.
- 1:34:16Speaker 2: The Bible says, for everyone that asked, receiveth Please ask
- 1:34:21him for grace. Father, I receive grace.

- 1:36:07Speaker 2: Allelujah, allelujah.
- 1:36:11Speaker 3: Please hear me.
- 1:36:13Speaker 2: Let me just give us one prayer point that God
- 1:36:16is putting in my heart, especially because the women program.
- 1:36:21I want every mother to pray for your children and
- 1:36:24to pray for your home. I was speaking in the UK,
- 1:36:30and I became very alarmed at the rate at which
- 1:36:34the devil is attacking children mental health. Many of them
- 1:36:40are getting into all kinds of Eastern religions practices, and
- 1:36:46some of them come from well grounded spiritual families. They
- 1:36:50are sent to school and after one year they can
- 1:36:54call their parents and say just to let you know,
- 1:36:56I'm not a Christian again, and don't you dare try
- 1:37:00to question me on it will summon you. And the
- 1:37:03powers that be, unfortunately, have created a system that makes
- 1:37:07this very easy. That children can disown their parents now happily,
- 1:37:13and society can fond that misbehavior and allow things so wrong.
- 1:37:17Let's not take for granted. You remember when Moses met
- 1:37:22Pharaoh and said, let my people go. Pharaoh said, okay,
- 1:37:25here's what will happen. We will allow you go, but
- 1:37:28will keep the children, and mostly said, no way, everybody
- 1:37:33is going. So whether or not you have biological children,
- 1:37:37we're going to pray for all the future of this church,
- 1:37:41this ministry, and every mother. If you don't have you
- 1:37:46have siblings. If you're a young person here you can
- 1:37:48pray over your siblings. But please, let's pray for one minute, Satan. Thus,
- 1:37:53far have you come?
- 1:37:54Speaker 3: No?
- 1:37:55Speaker 2: Father?
- 1:37:55Speaker 3: Shall you go? Someone? Pray first? Far have you come? No? Father?
- 1:38:01Shall you go first? Far have you come? No? Father?
- 1:38:05Shall you go first? Far have you come?
- 1:38:08Speaker 2: No?
- 1:38:09Speaker 3: Father? Shall you go? Go? Ahead? Pray for the children.
- 1:38:13Pray for the youth here the king's court. Mother, pray that.
- 1:38:18Speaker 2: Everyone who came out from your womb will serve your God,
- 1:38:22will live for God, will serve the purposes of the kingdom.
- 1:38:30It will not be there because you get better, society
- 1:38:33became worst. It will not be there because you had children,
- 1:38:37you died early. It will not be there because you
- 1:38:40had children. You backsleedd spiritually because of frustration. Someone, don't
- 1:38:46be silent. Pray as for me and my house. We
- 1:38:52will save the Lord. As for me and my siblings,
- 1:38:57as for me and my spouse, As for me and
- 1:39:02those that God has put.
- 1:39:04Speaker 3: Within my care.
- 1:39:07Speaker 2: Taken many to pray, Take a many to pray, Take
- 1:39:12him many to pray.
- 1:39:15Speaker 3: Shut backup.
- 1:39:15Speaker 2: Paracas, CA Press pray caparacas car paracles. As for me
- 1:39:21and my house, we will serve the Lord. As for
- 1:39:26me and my children, we will serve the Lord. Allelujah
- 1:39:36in Jesus' name, please hear me.
- 1:39:41Speaker 3: Don't be offended at this statement.
- 1:39:43Speaker 2: But it is not the usual for parents to still
- 1:39:48remain greater than their.
- 1:39:49Speaker 3: Children when they become adults.
- 1:39:52Speaker 2: No, are we together, no matter how great the parents are.
- 1:39:57According to God's destiny pro one day the children should
- 1:40:02rise and become like a giant oak tree. But you
- 1:40:05see what Satan is doing. Now you can find a
- 1:40:08child that is almost fifty he still saying mommy, can
- 1:40:11you please help me with two thousand? He's a course.
- 1:40:15I tell you, he's a course. He's a course. Are
- 1:40:19we together that? No parents should be the one still
- 1:40:22feeding their grandchildren. They are life or and still feeding
- 1:40:27their grandchildren.
- 1:40:32Speaker 3: Allelujah.
- 1:40:33Speaker 2: Father gave back to his children in that one room
- 1:40:36or that two bedroom flat. The child grew up married
- 1:40:39is still in that house, and now they're about to
- 1:40:42have their grandchildren. It is not the way God works.
- 1:40:45Don't feel condemned if that's your situation.
- 1:40:48Speaker 3: I'm just saying that's not how God works.
- 1:40:50Speaker 2: Someone say Father, Please shout to say Father, in the
- 1:40:54name of Jesus. Let my children be greater than me.
- 1:40:58Go ahead and pray in my lifetime. Let me see
- 1:41:01that greatness, not.
- 1:41:04Speaker 3: When I die in my lifetime.
- 1:41:08Speaker 2: Let me see the greatness of my children in my lifetime.
- 1:41:13Let me see the glory of God in the life
- 1:41:15of my children and my grandchildren. This is the heritage
- 1:41:20of the saints. Someone pray seriously in my lifetime. In
- 1:41:29my lifetime, let me see the glory of my child.
- 1:41:34Let me see the glory of my daughter. Let me
- 1:41:37see the glory of my grandchildren. Let them build in
- 1:41:41my lifetime. Let them marry in my lifetime, Let them
- 1:41:45have children in my lifetime. Let them slve God in
- 1:41:49my lifetime. Let the nation celebrate them in my lifetime,
- 1:41:53not when I go to my grave. Please pray every cause,
- 1:42:07every yoke that makes one generation to be less than
- 1:42:11the other, I come against it in Jesus' name. Pray no,
- 1:42:33my children will be greater than me, greater, spiritually, greater, financially,
- 1:42:39great in terms of influence, great in terms of advancement.
- 1:42:47Speaker 3: Please pray in Jesus' name.
- 1:42:58Speaker 2: We pray in Jesus' name.
- 1:43:02Speaker 3: We pray.
- 1:43:05Speaker 2: It is an evil that has destroyed many parents and
- 1:43:10grandparents in old age, where they are supposed to be resting.
- 1:43:14All that frustrates them. Do you know what kill Eli?
- 1:43:18It was the issue of his children.
- 1:43:21Speaker 3: Eli.
- 1:43:22Speaker 2: He already suspected that these boys, those boys were supposed
- 1:43:25to take over from him. One of the greatest pain
- 1:43:30with the privilege that I've had counseling parents is the
- 1:43:33pain that they have in old age over issues of
- 1:43:36succession and the fact that there is no body who
- 1:43:39can stand in defense to the family name, because the
- 1:43:43devil programmed that everybody who can uphold the name becomes
- 1:43:47a useless messing. It's an evil. Every time I read
- 1:43:53the story of Eli, I'm de stopped. How does a
- 1:43:55priest become so worried the act of God and his
- 1:44:00son's uffany and fine hers.
- 1:44:04Speaker 3: You see that?
- 1:44:06Speaker 2: And his daughter in law had to get into labor.
- 1:44:10I'm not sure it was time, but she got into
- 1:44:13label because of that stress, and she named the child Icaboard.
- 1:44:16He said, because the glory of God has departed from Israel,
- 1:44:20that it should not be that in this family they
- 1:44:22were once people who save God, but now it has
- 1:44:25become a place of idolatry. It should not be that
- 1:44:30somebody will look at you and said, the trouble that
- 1:44:32started in your village happened when you gave bet that.
- 1:44:35It was because your child came. That means it would
- 1:44:37have been better. You did not even give bet ah.
- 1:44:41Look at what Naomi said. Now me said, call me Marah.
- 1:44:45Don't call me Naomi. It is sadness and sorrow that
- 1:44:48has surrounded me.
- 1:44:49Speaker 3: My husband is dead, all my children.
- 1:44:51Speaker 2: Dead, everything that represents myself what has died.

- 1:46:44you have seen that makes sure that parents never reap
- 1:46:49from their children.
- 1:46:50Speaker 3: Have seen that that even.
- 1:46:52Speaker 2: When the children rise, just when they're about to be established,
- 1:46:55something caught short the parents. They die. You believe me, Oh,
- 1:47:02I know what I'm saying. No, the Bible say you
- 1:47:05will plant and you will reap. Do you believe that

- 1:47:35Speaker 2: There are spirits that search for families, search for great destinies.
- 1:47:42Their assignment is to frustrate that family that parents in
- 1:47:46only age when they should be resting. One report after another,
- 1:47:52everybody you raise, both biological and other children, everybody disappoints you, Hapa.
- 1:47:58One person has to fear God in off are we together?
- 1:48:02Do you know why many parents just live courses as
- 1:48:04they go to their grave?
- 1:48:06Speaker 3: Is not supposed to be so.
- 1:48:08Speaker 2: When parents are about to go, it's a time to bless.
- 1:48:11But is the pain there? I've got for.
- 1:48:14Speaker 3: Fifty years, sixty years, they just leave a course.
- 1:48:20Speaker 2: I remember true story many many years ago. I know
- 1:48:23about a woman her son kept bringing pain and embarrassment,
- 1:48:27and one day, in anger, she cost him. She said,
- 1:48:30until the day a rat stops stealing, that is the
- 1:48:34day he will stop stealing. Do you think any mother
- 1:48:39want to say that? But this is what happens when

- 1:49:29as a lesson to warn other people.
- 1:49:32Speaker 3: In the name of Jesus Christ.
- 1:49:35Speaker 2: And I want to pray for every young person here
- 1:49:40whatever wants to slow down your rising, to make sure
- 1:49:43until your parents die before you rise, that you have
- 1:49:47promised Mama you would build for her. It's not because

- 1:51:00Speaker 3: Increasing the field.
- 1:51:01Speaker 2: Is for all that even the king is fed by
- 1:51:04that which comes from the field. Every opportunity in Nigeria
- 1:51:09or the globe is not for a special group of people.

- 1:51:51Speaker 3: Thank you Jesus.
- 1:51:54Speaker 2: We're going to pray over this now. I believe everybody
- 1:51:57has their request. Why do we pray on this? Because
- 1:52:00number one, God tells us to make our requests known,
- 1:52:04no assumptions, and I.
- 1:52:07Speaker 3: Like to pray on requests like this.
- 1:52:08Speaker 2: You know why, because this is the most accurate expectation
- 1:52:13or expression of your expectation.
- 1:52:15Speaker 3: Nobody's going to read it.
- 1:52:17Speaker 2: This between you and the God of heaven, but I
- 1:52:19like you to pray. Tell him not for the sake
- 1:52:23of your glory. Let there be answers to this prayer.
- 1:52:26Go ahead and pray for the sake of your glory.
- 1:52:30Let their please go ahead and pray.
- 1:52:37Speaker 3: Just take one minute.
- 1:52:38Speaker 2: I'm laying my hands on this request, praying on them.

- 1:54:00Speaker 2: It's your name, Geeesus.
- 1:54:07Speaker 3: You deserve the praise worthy, it's your name.
- 1:54:15Speaker 2: Worthy is your name, Geeus?

- 1:54:30your name?
- 1:54:32Speaker 2: Your name, Geesus, you deserve Allelujah, allelujah, allelujah. I'm not
- 1:54:53a prophet of doom, but I'm going to say this.
- 1:54:57I just saw something that I trust, I know God
- 1:55:00wants to avert it. I'm looking at a truck that
- 1:55:06carries goods like maybe biscuits or something. I'm seeing it
- 1:55:11collide with a Corolla car and everybody in that car died.
- 1:55:16I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. No body here,
- 1:55:23no body here. It will not be said anybody here died.
- 1:55:30Please don't be afraid. I'm not a prophet of doom.
- 1:55:32But when God reviews like this, where dies for you
- 1:55:36or for.
- 1:55:36Speaker 3: Your loved ones? I say it again.
- 1:55:38Speaker 2: From now till the end of the year, you will
- 1:55:41not bury anybody, not by accident, not by sickness.
- 1:55:49Speaker 3: In the name of Jesus.
- 1:55:55Speaker 2: Allelujah, Allelujah. It will not be that your child would
- 1:56:01go out in the morning and you will not find
- 1:56:03the person again. In the name of Jesus. Listen, let
- 1:56:09me tell you people related to me. I remember one
- 1:56:15of my dear sons in ministry that were coming back
- 1:56:17from a program and they just called me. I think
- 1:56:21it was from where was that. They just ambushed all
- 1:56:26of them and kidnapped the first vehicle could run away,
- 1:56:29but they kidnapped the other ones. And they just said
- 1:56:34within twenty four or forty eight hours.
- 1:56:38Speaker 3: The first thing was.
- 1:56:39Speaker 2: About a fifty million or so, they said, if it's
- 1:56:42not brought, they would shoot everybody one by one. And
- 1:56:45these people are hurt less people. Let me tell you
- 1:56:47the true They would do it eventually like that people
- 1:56:52had to beg I would not tell you how much
- 1:56:55I had to pay eventually, as ransom even is bad,
- 1:57:03or even is bad. It's the reason why believers must
- 1:57:06receive prophetic words.
- 1:57:08Speaker 3: Your whole savings can go in one.
- 1:57:11Speaker 2: Day because of the evil heartedness of someone.
- 1:57:14Speaker 3: I say it again.
- 1:57:16Speaker 2: You will not sow for another man to read. You
- 1:57:19will not so for another man to reap. You will
- 1:57:23not so for another man to reap. In the name
- 1:57:26of Jesus, your going out is blessed. If you leave
- 1:57:31your house, you must return back. I say to a believer,
- 1:57:36if you leave your house, you must return back.
- 1:57:42Speaker 3: And for every.
- 1:57:42Speaker 2: Request that is here represented in the name of Jesus,
- 1:57:47no matter what that situation is, we call upon the
- 1:57:51God of Heaven to turn this request to answers.
- 1:57:56Speaker 3: Speedy answers.
- 1:57:59Speaker 2: In the name of Jesus. In the mighty name of Jesus,
- 1:58:05I use this opportunity to pray for the foundations of Sapphire.
- 1:58:09Speaker 3: Eight.
- 1:58:10Speaker 2: This is eight, yes am, I right. Eight is the
- 1:58:13number of new beginnings. Everything that represents the old, old pains,
- 1:58:20old wounds, all shame.
- 1:58:23Speaker 3: We declined.
- 1:58:23Speaker 2: Let it go with yesterday. Welcome to your new season.
- 1:58:30Season of grace, season of speed, season of breakthrough, capacity
- 1:58:38in the spirit, greater unity among the women. In the
- 1:58:43name of Jesus. Shout a man seven times, Let's leave Jesus.
- 1:58:58A big hand, clap, Hallelujah, prays the name of the Lord. Now,
- 1:59:08they didn't request that I do this, but I want
- 1:59:10to challenge someone, And my apologies if I break any protocol.
- 1:59:14But I want to challenge someone as God has placed.
- 1:59:18Speaker 3: In your life.
- 1:59:19Speaker 2: I want us to honor these mothers by sewing into
- 1:59:23the foundation of supphire. I'm not going to ask you
- 1:59:25to give anything.
- 1:59:26Speaker 3: It is between you and God.
- 1:59:29Speaker 2: But you see, it's a responsible Christian practice. It's not
- 1:59:33about money. Many of these mothers and even the ministry
- 1:59:38is blessed. But this is why many believers don't grow.
- 1:59:41Once you receive from a stream, you sew into that stream.
- 1:59:46Are we together now, so let me challenge. I don't
- 1:59:48say my mother is part of the foundation. That's not
- 1:59:51the issue. As I'm saying this, I know by myself
- 1:59:56I will also honor the instruction because it's coming from God.
- 2:00:00Come and receive. You have learned about prayer, You have
- 2:00:03learned about so many things. Don't watch the foundations of
- 2:00:06sapphire and just come and say wow, God, bless the
- 2:00:08mothers and leave responsible Christianity. Men talks people to know
- 2:00:13how to respond.
- 2:00:16Speaker 3: I'm saying it again.
- 2:00:17Speaker 2: It's not about money, but it's about a sense of responsibility.
- 2:00:22Speaker 3: So the details are there.
- 2:00:24Speaker 2: As God places in your heart, make sure your seed,
- 2:00:27no matter how great, no matter how small, let something
- 2:00:31leave you to connect with the grace that has made
- 2:00:33this happen.
- 2:00:34Speaker 3: This is what the Bible teaches.
- 2:00:36Speaker 2: Do you believe that away in agreement on it and
- 2:00:40don't say I don't have much.
- 2:00:41Speaker 3: That is the reason why many people don't grow.
- 2:00:43Speaker 2: No, your one mira, your one dollar, your ten dollars
- 2:00:47or one thousand, whatever it is that God places in
- 2:00:51your heart.
- 2:00:52Speaker 3: This is for our mothers.
- 2:00:53Speaker 2: This is as a seed to honor God and to
- 2:00:56thank His grace over the foundations of Thank you for
- 2:01:01making this happen.
- 2:01:02Speaker 3: Thank you for.
- 2:01:03Speaker 2: Helping me understand God. Use the platform of this to
- 2:01:07help me understand prayer, to help me understand the greatness
- 2:01:11of God. My spiritual life has been enhanced. I have
- 2:01:14experienced his hand. How do you just fold your arm
- 2:01:17and share the grace and walk away?
- 2:01:19Speaker 3: It doesn't work like that.
- 2:01:21Speaker 2: When it came to Cornelios, he said, your prayers and
- 2:01:23your arms, this is how it works. Thank you so much,
- 2:01:27dear mothers and aunties. Thank you for this honor you
- 2:01:30have given me. Made the Lord bless you in Jesus
- 2:01:33nake
