- 2:23Speaker 1: is coin on here, allelujah. I want us to remain
- 2:32Speaker 1: ever grateful for the mighty hand of God in our
- 2:36Speaker 1: midst for.
- 2:39Speaker 2: His mercies upon our lives.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Every time I sit back and I listen to the testimonies,
- 2:45Speaker 1: you know these things are not the workings of a man.
- 2:48Speaker 1: They are the workings of God through men. But no man,
- 2:53Speaker 1: unassisted by God can produce these results. Nicodemus already taught
- 2:57Speaker 1: us he came to Jesus and his Arabbi. We know
- 3:00Speaker 1: that now at a man sent from God. For no
- 3:04Speaker 1: man can do these things except God be with him, allelujah.
- 3:10Speaker 2: And so we thank.
- 3:11Speaker 1: God not just for these testimonies, but for what God
- 3:14Speaker 1: is doing in and through this ministry across the nations
- 3:19Speaker 1: of the Earth without exaggeration, phenomenal manifestations of His spirit
- 3:25Speaker 1: transformation even by the world of God, and we thank
- 3:30Speaker 1: God for what He's doing. As always, let me encourage everyone,
- 3:36Speaker 1: especially those who are connecting from across the world. You
- 3:39Speaker 1: are as much a part of our family as.
- 3:46Speaker 2: Those who are within seated in this place.
- 3:50Speaker 1: Whether you're in Ghana, South Africa, UK America, doesn't matter.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Even technology has given us intelligence and to know that
- 4:01Speaker 1: relative to rich distance is no longer a barrier. Alleluya,
- 4:06Speaker 1: and I have taught you here. And it bears mentioned
- 4:10Speaker 1: again that fans don't receive anything. There is no provision
- 4:16Speaker 1: for fans of anything. Those who admire superstars, there's no
- 4:21Speaker 1: stake for them, there is no inheritance for them. So
- 4:25Speaker 1: you must move graduate from being a fan, graduate from
- 4:31Speaker 1: being a well wisher, in fact, graduate from being a
- 4:35Speaker 1: member to become a student of Scripture, one who is
- 4:40Speaker 1: opened and determined to hear and learn. I teach for
- 4:43Speaker 1: the effect of transformation, not just for the communication of
- 4:49Speaker 1: an awareness of an information behind the things that I do.
- 4:54Speaker 1: When I teach, I hope and pray and seek to
- 4:57Speaker 1: see people transformed. A. So I want to encourage you,
- 5:03Speaker 1: whether you are following from any part of the world
- 5:06Speaker 1: at all, and then even for us who are here,
- 5:08Speaker 1: connect sincerely by the covenant of understanding. Lord, this is
- 5:15Speaker 1: my word, this is church for me. My heart is
- 5:18Speaker 1: open to receive. And right there in your room, your office,
- 5:21Speaker 1: your home, the Coinonia experience is not only limited to
- 5:27Speaker 1: this auditorium. The Cononia experience is a spiritual experience that
- 5:32Speaker 1: can be transported by faith to any region, any home,
- 5:36Speaker 1: any locality away. Together you can replicate the Cononia experience
- 5:42Speaker 1: by your faith. So right there in your room, it
- 5:45Speaker 1: can be Coinonia for you, in your office, anywhere at all.
- 5:51Speaker 1: There are certain conditions that must happen for Coinonia to happen.
- 5:55Speaker 1: The presence of the Man of God is the last
- 5:58Speaker 1: of the conditions.
- 5:59Speaker 2: One, it is the presence of God. Number two. There
- 6:02Speaker 2: must be an atmosphere of faith. Number three.
- 6:05Speaker 1: The ministry of the Holy Spirit must be respected. Number four.
- 6:09Speaker 1: The supremacy of the world must be honored. Number five.
- 6:12Speaker 1: There must be a teaching priests who is able to
- 6:16Speaker 1: communicate the counsel of God with exactitude and precision. Number six.
- 6:20Speaker 1: There must be excellence. If that happens. That is the
- 6:23Speaker 1: Cononia experience, regardless where you are. So it's important that
- 6:28Speaker 1: you don't idolize the experience. It is localized just for
- 6:32Speaker 1: the sake of administration and to be able to bless
- 6:35Speaker 1: those who are domiciled within that environment. But as far
- 6:39Speaker 1: as the experience is concerned, it can be transported anywhere,
- 6:44Speaker 1: even now.
- 6:46Speaker 2: Allelujah. So it's important for us to know.
- 6:50Speaker 1: And I think the second thing I would want to
- 6:54Speaker 1: say before we get to the word is.
- 6:57Speaker 2: You must have this understanding. Listen carefully.
- 7:00Speaker 1: You must have this understanding that every time you see
- 7:05Speaker 1: me travel to any region in this nation or any
- 7:10Speaker 1: nation of the world, it is not a man of
- 7:13Speaker 1: God just going to preach. You need to understand that
- 7:16Speaker 1: you are also with me on that trip by covenant.
- 7:20Speaker 2: Are we together?
- 7:22Speaker 1: Yes, because when you are bound by covenant and by revelation,
- 7:28Speaker 1: you need to understand that it is not there would
- 7:30Speaker 1: be one person who is doing the preaching and God
- 7:33Speaker 1: walking the miracles. But I want you to know that
- 7:36Speaker 1: every glory, every joy.
- 7:38Speaker 2: Is to Jesus.
- 7:39Speaker 1: But in terms of the honor, the honor is shared
- 7:42Speaker 1: honor to all of us. I've told you that the
- 7:44Speaker 1: days of superstar.
- 7:45Speaker 2: Christianity is over.
- 7:47Speaker 1: God is not just interested in celebrities, is interested in ambassadors.
- 7:52Speaker 1: The difference between a celebrity and an ambassador is purpose.
- 7:57Speaker 2: Allelujah.
- 7:59Speaker 1: Are we together now so as we travel across the
- 8:02Speaker 1: nations of the earth bringing the message of life? This
- 8:05Speaker 1: week now being Kenya, and I trust that it's going
- 8:09Speaker 1: to be a phenomenal, phenomenal meeting blessing the body of Christ.
- 8:16Speaker 1: Or by the way that reminds me, let me just
- 8:18Speaker 1: put a word. I just mentioned Kenya, and I think
- 8:21Speaker 1: it's good.
- 8:22Speaker 2: Now.
- 8:22Speaker 1: We've had several calls from a coin Onia family back
- 8:26Speaker 1: there whether there can be an opportunity for a personalized meeting.
- 8:31Speaker 1: Let me just use this opportunity and answer you lovingly. No,
- 8:35Speaker 1: there might not be that opportunity, And I'll tell you why.
- 8:42Speaker 1: I have certain ethics that I work with. When I'm
- 8:44Speaker 1: invited to a region or a city, I limit myself
- 8:49Speaker 1: to honor those who are hosting me and accept with
- 8:53Speaker 1: your permission. Or when I'm done and I decide to stay,
- 8:56Speaker 1: I don't go around organizing any extra meetings.
- 8:59Speaker 2: It is my honor those who have invited me.
- 9:01Speaker 1: Influence is a very expensive commodity. You don't play with it,
- 9:06Speaker 1: you can destroy with influence. The Bible says a man
- 9:09Speaker 1: of honor who does not know you can go to
- 9:11Speaker 1: a church and bless the church and still wreck the
- 9:14Speaker 1: church because of the mismanagement of influence. Influence is a
- 9:18Speaker 1: delicate and an expensive commodity that if trusted with it
- 9:24Speaker 1: by God, you must obtain the grace to be able
- 9:27Speaker 1: to manage it so that it does not destroy.
- 9:31Speaker 2: Are we together now?
- 9:32Speaker 1: So for my lovely people, our family in Caia, who
- 9:37Speaker 1: are coming to bless the body of Christ, bringing the
- 9:39Speaker 1: message of life, of hope, transformation, healing and deliverance. And
- 9:43Speaker 1: they just finished their elections, so I'm sure to give
- 9:47Speaker 1: us an opportunity to also speak over the nation. But
- 9:50Speaker 1: for a cononial family, well, if you can organize yourself,
- 9:53Speaker 1: so I'm sure somewhere in the course of the state
- 9:56Speaker 1: would be able to just say hello and say God
- 9:59Speaker 1: bless you. But I want us to be patient, and
- 10:02Speaker 1: this applies to all our people across the globe. You
- 10:05Speaker 1: should have known by now that we are people who
- 10:08Speaker 1: are not hasty. We never act except by the leading
- 10:14Speaker 1: of the spirit. It has been the secret of this
- 10:16Speaker 1: ministry and the leading of the spirit sometimes can look
- 10:20Speaker 1: deceptfully slow, but your results will never have to be
- 10:25Speaker 1: repeated as a result of failure. You will get it
- 10:28Speaker 1: and get it with precision.
- 10:30Speaker 2: Are we together? So that's that? But then my message
- 10:35Speaker 2: really is that all of us, let me show you
- 10:38Speaker 2: one scripture. Can I show you one scripture?
- 10:40Speaker 1: I think that should be first, give us first, some
- 10:42Speaker 1: well first somewhere twenty four and I think verse thirty
- 10:47Speaker 1: that scripture just came to my mind, just to brotress on.
- 10:53Speaker 2: Oh dear, let me just search for it.
- 10:58Speaker 1: First, Samuel thirty, I flipped, give us thirty and twenty four.
- 11:05Speaker 2: Let's have amplified.
- 11:07Speaker 1: Then will have any other version, nalty or seev He says,
- 11:11Speaker 1: who would listen to you in this matter?
- 11:14Speaker 2: For us?
- 11:15Speaker 1: Is the share of him who goes into battle, so
- 11:19Speaker 1: is the share of him who stays by the baggage.
- 11:23Speaker 2: They shall share a like. Are you seeing that? Now?
- 11:27Speaker 1: That means the person who goes to do the actual
- 11:29Speaker 1: fighting and the one who is waiting behind, protecting maybe
- 11:33Speaker 1: the bags. The Bible says both of them have equal share.
- 11:38Speaker 1: This is a very powerful revelation. So that the one
- 11:41Speaker 1: who is preaching from nation to nation, and the one
- 11:44Speaker 1: who is sowing, the one who is praying, the one
- 11:47Speaker 1: who is wishing well, the one who is using his
- 11:49Speaker 1: influence to make the journey easy.
- 11:52Speaker 2: Together.
- 11:52Speaker 1: The Bible says, all of them are preaching together. Let's
- 11:55Speaker 1: see see ev or nalty anyone, please give us another version.
- 12:00Speaker 1: Now it says, who will listen to you when you
- 12:03Speaker 1: talk like this? It says, we share and share alike.
- 12:07Speaker 1: Those who go to battle and those who guard the equipment,
- 12:11Speaker 1: all of them share alike. So for the souls that
- 12:15Speaker 1: are worn anywhere when we return back, don't just say wow,
- 12:18Speaker 1: God bless him. No, Father, we thank you for the
- 12:21Speaker 1: souls that were one. And you expect that as God
- 12:24Speaker 1: is blessing, your own person should come to except if
- 12:28Speaker 1: you are not genuinely connected and accept. If you are
- 12:30Speaker 1: not participating, if not in giving, in prayer, if not
- 12:35Speaker 1: in prayer, in well wishing, if not in well wishing,
- 12:38Speaker 1: you help someone to connect to the meeting in your
- 12:40Speaker 1: nation wherever, have this at the back of your mind.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Number one, we do what we do not just because
- 12:46Speaker 1: of the reward. We do it essentially because we love Jesus. However,
- 12:50Speaker 1: the truth of the matter is that a worker is
- 12:53Speaker 1: worthy of His wages.
- 12:56Speaker 2: Are we together? Yes?
- 12:59Speaker 1: So just to give you understanding that you connect by faith.
- 13:03Speaker 1: So whether you are in a buja here, or any
- 13:07Speaker 1: part of this nation or any part of the globe,
- 13:10Speaker 1: connected by covenant and understanding this vision, anywhere you seek
- 13:14Speaker 1: God doing mighty things to us. It is a joy
- 13:17Speaker 1: to all of us. It is not a joy to
- 13:19Speaker 1: one person supported by fans. That's not a kingdom understanding
- 13:24Speaker 1: away together. It is Jesus Christ glorified through those miracles,
- 13:29Speaker 1: through the transformations, and then he gives the honor to
- 13:32Speaker 1: the saints that he has used. Allelujah. Do you have
- 13:37Speaker 1: that understanding now right? So let's go straight to the world.
- 13:46Speaker 1: May Tonight's teaching bless our hearts in Jesus' name. Tonight's
- 13:51Speaker 1: teaching was designed by the spirit of God to help us.
- 13:56Speaker 1: You will never come for a coinonia service and lack
- 14:01Speaker 1: is spirit inspired word, compliant, life applicable, kingdom truth.
- 14:08Speaker 2: I didn't play with words.
- 14:10Speaker 1: Spirit inspired word compliant, life applicable, kingdom truth that makes
- 14:17Speaker 1: for your lifting, for your rising. It is these adjectives
- 14:23Speaker 1: that help you to understand the quality of what you
- 14:26Speaker 1: are receiving, the speakings of a man on his own
- 14:29Speaker 1: does not change, doesn't really bless it is when it
- 14:32Speaker 1: is spirit inspired, word compliant.
- 14:35Speaker 2: Are we together life applicable?
- 14:38Speaker 1: That means at the end of every teaching, by the
- 14:41Speaker 1: grace of God, you should find the point of application
- 14:44Speaker 1: in your life. Alle Lujah Tonight I'm teaching on the
- 14:51Speaker 1: Price for New Dimensions. It's a powerful teaching that will
- 14:56Speaker 1: change your life. This is a teaching for those who
- 14:59Speaker 1: desire more. This is a teaching for those who know
- 15:02Speaker 1: that there is more. This is a teaching for those
- 15:05Speaker 1: who have refused to plant to in life and destiny
- 15:09Speaker 1: in their walk with God. This is for those who
- 15:12Speaker 1: know and believe that God is able to do abundantly
- 15:19Speaker 1: far above all we ask and think. And if you
- 15:22Speaker 1: are that person, say amen, Allelujah.
- 15:30Speaker 2: Open our eyes to night and grant us grace for
- 15:34Speaker 2: in Jesus' name we pray.
- 15:36Speaker 1: Can you turn it into a prayer. In fact, I
- 15:38Speaker 1: like every time we participate in prayer, Lord, open my eyes,
- 15:45Speaker 1: reveal to me the keys in Jesus's name, we pray.
- 15:57Speaker 1: All right, So let's get to work. Prophabs have to
- 16:00Speaker 1: be four and verse eighteen. The Bible tells us that
- 16:05Speaker 1: the path of the just is as a shining light
- 16:09Speaker 1: that shines more and more even onto the perfect day.
- 16:13Speaker 1: The perfect day is the day when the Lord comes.
- 16:17Speaker 1: The perfect day is not the day when you shine brightest.
- 16:20Speaker 1: The perfect day is that day when the Lord comes
- 16:23Speaker 1: to wrap up life as we know it. So until
- 16:27Speaker 1: then you have not gotten into that perfect day. And
- 16:30Speaker 1: there is still room for more. There is still room
- 16:32Speaker 1: to keep pressing. The Bible says, more and more is
- 16:36Speaker 1: the heritage of everyone who is justified.
- 16:39Speaker 2: Are we together more and more, not more alone, not more?
- 16:43Speaker 2: Once more and.
- 16:45Speaker 1: More, one level of greatness after another, one level of
- 16:49Speaker 1: encounter after another. Job Chapter twenty eight, from verse seven
- 16:55Speaker 1: and eight, Job himself was giving us a testimony by
- 17:00Speaker 1: the spirit that there is a path which no foul knoweth,
- 17:06Speaker 1: which the vulture's eye hath not seen.
- 17:09Speaker 2: Job is speaking now.
- 17:10Speaker 1: He says, the lions whelps have not trodden, nor the
- 17:14Speaker 1: fierce lion passed by it. Give us verse seven again.
- 17:18Speaker 1: Do you know what this means the vulture? If you
- 17:21Speaker 1: study the vulture, the vulture is a very strange bird.
- 17:26Speaker 1: It can pick with precision anywhere there is meat that
- 17:31Speaker 1: is dead and rotten. Are we together now with precision
- 17:35Speaker 1: from a high altitude. You see them roaming around about
- 17:38Speaker 1: to us, you see them roaming anywhere there is a
- 17:41Speaker 1: dead body, anywhere there is anything that is.
- 17:44Speaker 2: Newsworthy and can be food.
- 17:47Speaker 1: The vulture sustains the ability to pick the signal, and
- 17:50Speaker 1: yet the Bible says there is a path which no
- 17:53Speaker 1: foul know it.
- 17:55Speaker 2: The birds have an advantage of the air. They don't
- 17:59Speaker 2: walk on land.
- 18:00Speaker 1: They are not limited in perspective a way together, the
- 18:03Speaker 1: bird can see higher and greater. If you drive, you
- 18:08Speaker 1: are only limited by the frame of your sight away together,
- 18:13Speaker 1: but when you are in the air, you will be
- 18:15Speaker 1: able to see a lot more. Now, the Bible says,
- 18:17Speaker 1: the beds have those advantages, and yet there is a
- 18:21Speaker 1: path their eyes cannot see. It says even the vulture,
- 18:25Speaker 1: the vulture that has the power of sight, and then
- 18:28Speaker 1: the advantage to be able to smell and pick signals.
- 18:31Speaker 1: Even the vulture has not seen a way together. Now
- 18:34Speaker 1: verse eight were giving definition to more and more. It says,
- 18:39Speaker 1: the lions whelps have not trodden. That means the lion
- 18:43Speaker 1: is not afraid of any animal.
- 18:45Speaker 2: You know, the lion does not fear.
- 18:47Speaker 1: It may only run to restrategize, it has earned itself
- 18:50Speaker 1: the title of being the king of the jungle. And
- 18:53Speaker 1: so there is if there is any virgin place where
- 18:56Speaker 1: the lion and its pride has not gotten to it
- 18:59Speaker 1: wild tra It's fit there and establishes dominion there. And
- 19:04Speaker 1: yet the Bible says, the webs of the lion have
- 19:06Speaker 1: not trodden, even the angry lion has not passed by it.
- 19:11Speaker 1: This is only a definition that there are still realms
- 19:15Speaker 1: and there are still dimensions kept for the people of God.
- 19:18Speaker 1: Are we together that everything you have seen about God
- 19:21Speaker 1: until now is not all that He want to reveal.
- 19:24Speaker 1: Everything you have seen about spiritual power is not all
- 19:27Speaker 1: that there is. All that you have seen about revelation
- 19:30Speaker 1: is not all that there is all that you have
- 19:32Speaker 1: seen about prosperity, increase. Someone said there is more. Speak
- 19:37Speaker 1: it prophetically said, there is more. More and more is
- 19:43Speaker 1: the destiny of God's people, the path of the just.
- 19:47Speaker 1: We have been justified in Christ, and the Bible says,
- 19:50Speaker 1: our destiny, our heritage in Christ, is more and more.
- 19:55Speaker 1: That means there is no plateauing for the believer. It
- 19:59Speaker 1: is from one strike to another, when you think they
- 20:02Speaker 1: have exhausted everything they will come to a higher dimension.
- 20:06Speaker 1: May that be your testimony in the name of Jesus Christ.
- 20:12Speaker 1: In Revelations chapter four and verse one, Popular scripture, John
- 20:19Speaker 1: the Apostle was caught up in heaven. And remember the
- 20:23Speaker 1: chapter one, Chapter two, chapter three, the Bible says that
- 20:28Speaker 1: he was in the spirit on the Lord's Day. You
- 20:31Speaker 1: find that in verse ten of chapter one. So he
- 20:33Speaker 1: was already in the spirit on the Lord's day. When
- 20:36Speaker 1: you look at Revelations one, verse ten, I believe he
- 20:39Speaker 1: said I was in the spirit on the Lord's Day.
- 20:43Speaker 1: So he was already in the spirit. But when we
- 20:45Speaker 1: get to chapter four and verse one, the Bible says,
- 20:48Speaker 1: after this, I looked, it's God helping us already. And behold,
- 20:52Speaker 1: a door was open where in heaven. And the first
- 20:57Speaker 1: voice which I heard was as it where of a
- 21:00Speaker 1: trumpet talking with me. And he said, come up hither,
- 21:04Speaker 1: already in the spirit, already in heaven. And the voice
- 21:08Speaker 1: said come up hither. The voice didn't just say look around,
- 21:12Speaker 1: rise that even though you are in the spirit, even
- 21:16Speaker 1: though you are already in heaven, even though you have
- 21:19Speaker 1: seen you have received the message to the seven churches,
- 21:22Speaker 1: there is still more. Come up hither, and I will
- 21:25Speaker 1: show you the things that must be Thereafter someone say
- 21:29Speaker 1: more and more, I wrote down here I said, there
- 21:33Speaker 1: is always more for the people of God. There is
- 21:37Speaker 1: always more. You have to burn that as a revelation
- 21:40Speaker 1: in your spirit. So if God opens you up to
- 21:43Speaker 1: a level of the healing, anointing, opens you up to
- 21:46Speaker 1: a level of the prophetic, opens you up to a
- 21:48Speaker 1: level of wealth and prosperity, opens you up to a
- 21:51Speaker 1: level of leadership and influence. It doesn't matter in what
- 21:55Speaker 1: dimension you must settle it at the back of your
- 21:58Speaker 1: mind that all I have seen is not all that.
- 22:01Speaker 1: There is the price for new dimensions. There is always more.
- 22:07Speaker 1: More and more is the destiny of every believer in Christ. Allelujah.
- 22:14Speaker 1: There is still more in your work with God. There
- 22:17Speaker 1: is still more as far as destiny actualization is concerned.
- 22:21Speaker 2: There is still.
- 22:22Speaker 1: More as far as you're excelling in life is concerned. Unfortunately,
- 22:28Speaker 1: the Bible and even history is full of people who
- 22:32Speaker 1: do well and rise to certain levels in ministry, in business, in.
- 22:39Speaker 2: Career, whatever area.
- 22:41Speaker 1: And they may not backslide, they may not go down,
- 22:44Speaker 1: but they seem to plot two at a level, and
- 22:48Speaker 1: sometimes they plot two at that level until they are
- 22:52Speaker 1: edged out.
- 22:52Speaker 2: Of relevance away together.
- 22:55Speaker 1: Now, this has happened, respectfully over men of God, This
- 23:00Speaker 1: has happened over business people. This has happened over people
- 23:03Speaker 1: in government, This has happened to leaders.
- 23:06Speaker 2: The goal of this teaching is that you get to
- 23:09Speaker 2: that more and more dimension.
- 23:11Speaker 1: Where as far as the assignment committed to you is concerned,
- 23:15Speaker 1: and your destiny and your press into God that you
- 23:18Speaker 1: will never stop, you will never have a better yesterday.
- 23:21Speaker 1: In the name of Jesus Christ. Very quickly, I'm going
- 23:25Speaker 1: to run through the price. I like responsible Christianity. I
- 23:30Speaker 1: am an advocate of responsible Christianity. Responsible Christianity means that
- 23:35Speaker 1: number one, you are open to the provisions that redemption
- 23:39Speaker 1: has brought, but you are also told the role, the
- 23:43Speaker 1: participatory role that you have to play in making that
- 23:47Speaker 1: Finnish reality and experience in your life.
- 23:49Speaker 2: That is responsible Christianity.
- 23:52Speaker 1: It is a fact that it is not all up
- 23:55Speaker 1: to God and it is not all up to you.
- 23:58Speaker 2: Are we together now, Yes.
- 24:00Speaker 1: As far as bringing that reality and making it finish
- 24:03Speaker 1: from the realm of the Spirit is concerned, it is
- 24:06Speaker 1: exclusively God's assignment. But making it manifest and revealed in
- 24:11Speaker 1: your life.
- 24:12Speaker 2: You have a role to play.
- 24:13Speaker 1: So the formula is always the Spirit and the bride
- 24:16Speaker 1: say come. If the spirit is saying come and you,
- 24:20Speaker 1: the bride does not say come, come, cannot manifest. The
- 24:25Speaker 1: Spirit and the bride say be lifted. The Spirit and
- 24:28Speaker 1: the bride say be healed. For many of you, the
- 24:31Speaker 1: spirit has been saying for a long time, come up hither,
- 24:34Speaker 1: but the bride has refused to answer. The spirit has
- 24:37Speaker 1: been saying, rise to a new level. Prophetically, rise to
- 24:40Speaker 1: a new level of prosperity, rise to a new level
- 24:43Speaker 1: of grace.
- 24:44Speaker 2: But there seem to be a spiritual deafness or the
- 24:48Speaker 2: laxity to rise.
- 24:52Speaker 1: So tonight's teaching is equipping us with the knowledge we
- 24:56Speaker 1: need to leave that area where we have been limited
- 25:00Speaker 1: and to rise to a new.
- 25:01Speaker 2: Level in the name of Jesus Christ.
- 25:05Speaker 1: This may be a message for a man of God
- 25:07Speaker 1: who is saying, apostle, I may not know what is
- 25:09Speaker 1: wrong with my spiritual life. I can't say I'm backsleading,
- 25:12Speaker 1: but I'm tired. No new messages, no revelation. I'm not
- 25:16Speaker 1: sure I'm seeing anything more. I'm just recycling my current realm.
- 25:20Speaker 1: He's say, you have compassed this mountain long enough. Turn
- 25:23Speaker 1: ye not words. This may be for a business man
- 25:26Speaker 1: someone in your finances. You can't say you are going down,
- 25:30Speaker 1: But in truth there is nothing new. Neil is a
- 25:36Speaker 1: very powerful spiritual word. It means there is increment, there
- 25:40Speaker 1: is growth.
- 25:40Speaker 2: Are we together now? I'm going to give you a
- 25:44Speaker 2: few keys.
- 25:45Speaker 1: That represent the price that altogether will bring you to
- 25:50Speaker 1: a new dimension. And I'm praying in the name of
- 25:52Speaker 1: Jesus that this teaching will not be casual for you, that.
- 25:56Speaker 2: You will listen to it, not just with your physical ear.
- 25:59Speaker 1: Alone, Because the Bible says heat that has an ear,
- 26:02Speaker 1: there is a spiritual year, and many people do.
- 26:05Speaker 2: Not have it, and so they don't hear. They keep nodding.
- 26:08Speaker 1: Sometimes they say tell them, and at the end of
- 26:10Speaker 1: the service they don't receive anything. I pray that your
- 26:13Speaker 1: ears be open and your eyes be open, in the
- 26:16Speaker 1: name of Jesus Christ.
- 26:18Speaker 2: The first price, the first price that.
- 26:22Speaker 1: Is responsible for accessing higher realms and dimensions in life
- 26:29Speaker 1: and in destiny, is the price of a deeper experience
- 26:33Speaker 1: with God. The price of a deeper experience with God.
- 26:46Speaker 3: Take me deeper, you know that sound deeper in love?
- 26:52Speaker 2: With you, Jesus.
- 26:55Speaker 4: Hold me clothes to your embry, take me deeper, deeper
- 27:06Speaker 4: than I've ever been before.
- 27:09Speaker 2: I just want to love you more and more. How
- 27:14Speaker 2: while to be deep? Can I tell you?
- 27:22Speaker 1: Those who will keep making news for the kingdom are
- 27:25Speaker 1: those who understand that it is the deeper and the
- 27:29Speaker 1: richer you walk with God, the more the sound of
- 27:33Speaker 1: your exploits in the spirit are we together physically speaking.
- 27:41Speaker 1: The heavier and object, the more it will make noise
- 27:45Speaker 1: when you throw it on the ground.
- 27:46Speaker 2: Is that true? When you carry a strand of hair
- 27:50Speaker 2: or a feather.
- 27:51Speaker 1: And you try it, it will take so long to
- 27:53Speaker 1: arrive the ground, and you will almost not know that
- 27:55Speaker 1: there is anything there. News is a product of deep
- 27:58Speaker 1: relationship with the Spirit. You want God to announce you
- 28:01Speaker 1: to your world. It is not just looking for opportunities.
- 28:05Speaker 1: You have to have a deeper work with God, a
- 28:09Speaker 1: deeper work with God. Second King, Chapter nine and verse thirty.
- 28:13Speaker 1: Very popular and powerful scripture, Second Kings, nineteen thirty. I
- 28:20Speaker 1: meant to say, the Bible says The Remnant nineteen thirty
- 28:25Speaker 1: nineteen three zero. Second Kings, nineteen thirty. The Remnant that
- 28:31Speaker 1: is escaped of the House of Judah. It says the
- 28:34Speaker 1: first thing they shall do is to take root or
- 28:37Speaker 1: bear root downwards, and then there will be a fruit
- 28:41Speaker 1: upwards all together that those that have escaped and have preserved,
- 28:46Speaker 1: if they are to gain stature, they will bear root downwards.
- 28:50Speaker 2: For you to understand this, you have to understand agriculture.
- 28:53Speaker 2: Please look up. There are grasses and.
- 28:57Speaker 1: Lead to shrubs that last for days, weeks and at
- 29:02Speaker 1: best a few months. You can pull them up because
- 29:05Speaker 1: their roots are not deep. Sometimes their roots are even visible.
- 29:09Speaker 2: Is that true? You can see them.
- 29:11Speaker 1: And because their roots are not deep, you don't expect
- 29:15Speaker 1: that they become giant trees.
- 29:18Speaker 2: If you plant your maize.
- 29:21Speaker 1: The rich that you make for may sometimes it may
- 29:23Speaker 1: not even be anything serious, just enough to covery. It
- 29:26Speaker 1: is that true, And then it grows, because after three
- 29:29Speaker 1: months you're going to cut everything away. But there are trees,
- 29:35Speaker 1: giant oak trees, and many trees that we have in
- 29:39Speaker 1: Africa and around the world.
- 29:41Speaker 2: Some of those trees are.
- 29:42Speaker 1: Thirty years old, sixty years old, hundreds of years old.
- 29:46Speaker 1: And you find out that the root of those trees,
- 29:49Speaker 1: without exaggeration, sometimes it can be so deep, deep enough
- 29:54Speaker 1: to be the size of a house, and it sings
- 29:58Speaker 1: right to the ground together. Whether there is rain or
- 30:02Speaker 1: no rain. It doesn't wait for any season. It has
- 30:05Speaker 1: gone deep enough to touch where there is constant supply.
- 30:09Speaker 1: The Bible says, shall be like a tree that is
- 30:14Speaker 1: planted by the streams of water. Are we together now
- 30:18Speaker 1: whose lives does not wither? And the reason is because
- 30:21Speaker 1: it does not have to wait for seasons to change
- 30:24Speaker 1: to flourish. It has found this way to get a
- 30:27Speaker 1: constant supply of water.
- 30:31Speaker 2: Allelujah.
- 30:33Speaker 1: So the deeper your root spiritually, in terms of your
- 30:37Speaker 1: fellowship with God, in terms of your prayer life, in
- 30:40Speaker 1: terms of your love for God, your honor, and your
- 30:43Speaker 1: spiritual understanding. Generally, your love and your passion and your
- 30:49Speaker 1: fire for God, there is a guarantee from that experience
- 30:53Speaker 1: that you will not plant. To show me a man
- 30:56Speaker 1: whose passion for God never goes down, I'll show you
- 30:59Speaker 1: a man relevance will remain. Show me a preacher, show
- 31:03Speaker 1: me a business man, Show me a politician, Show me
- 31:06Speaker 1: a career person who has that degree of respect for God.
- 31:11Speaker 2: I show you a man that knows matter. Watch toms come.
- 31:15Speaker 2: He will remain and he will increase.
- 31:17Speaker 1: Somebody say more and more, one more time, prophests, I say,
- 31:21Speaker 1: more and more, Allelujah, are we learning? In Second Chronicles,
- 31:30Speaker 1: Chapter fifteen. Second Chronicles, Chapter fifteen, will read from verse ten.
- 31:35Speaker 2: Please give it to ARUs media. Let's work together. Second
- 31:38Speaker 2: Second Chronicles fifteen.
- 31:39Speaker 1: From verse ten, he says, So they gathered themselves together
- 31:43Speaker 1: at Jerusalem, reading to fifteen, in the third month and
- 31:46Speaker 1: in the fifteenth year of.
- 31:48Speaker 2: The reign of asa Uh Huh.
- 31:50Speaker 1: And they offered onto the Lord the same time of
- 31:53Speaker 1: the spoil which they had brought seven hundred oxen and
- 31:57Speaker 1: seven thousand sheep twelve. And they entered into a covenant.
- 32:02Speaker 1: What was the covenant to seek the Lord, the God
- 32:05Speaker 1: of their fathers, with all their heart and with all
- 32:08Speaker 1: their soul. Next verse that whosoever would not seek the Lord,
- 32:12Speaker 1: God of Israel, it should be put to death, whether
- 32:15Speaker 1: small or great, whether man or woman. Two more verses
- 32:19Speaker 1: four him and they swear onto the Lord with a
- 32:21Speaker 1: loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with connects.
- 32:26Speaker 2: The last verse it.
- 32:27Speaker 1: Says, and all jud that rejoiced at the oath, for
- 32:30Speaker 1: they had sworn with all their heart and sought him
- 32:34Speaker 1: with their whole desire, and he was fond of them,
- 32:39Speaker 1: and the Lord gave them rest round about What was
- 32:44Speaker 1: the secret? They said, the issue of seeking God. We
- 32:47Speaker 1: bind it as a covenant. We're not going to depend
- 32:50Speaker 1: on our emotions. The day I feel good, the day
- 32:54Speaker 1: it works well for me. No, I will seek the
- 32:56Speaker 1: Lord no matter what happens. Second Chronicles twenty six and
- 33:02Speaker 1: verse five, speaking about Usiah the secret to his prosperity
- 33:06Speaker 1: and exploit, the Bible says, and he sought God in
- 33:10Speaker 1: the days of Zachariah, who had understanding in the visions
- 33:14Speaker 1: of God. And as long as Usiah sought the Lord,
- 33:18Speaker 1: God made him to prosper. The word prosper there has
- 33:22Speaker 1: nothing to do with money.
- 33:23Speaker 2: It means to excel. It means to advance, It means
- 33:26Speaker 2: to continue.
- 33:29Speaker 1: For as long as he sought the Lord, the Lord
- 33:33Speaker 1: made him to prosper. May you never get to any
- 33:39Speaker 1: point in your life where you feel you have sought
- 33:42Speaker 1: God enough. May you never get to a point in
- 33:44Speaker 1: your life where you feel your prayer life is enough.
- 33:47Speaker 1: May you never get to any point in your life
- 33:50Speaker 1: where you feel your commitment.
- 33:51Speaker 2: And your passion for God is enough.
- 33:54Speaker 1: Are we together the only place you are permitted to say,
- 33:58Speaker 1: enough is in acquisitions of mine material things, and then
- 34:02Speaker 1: just the at least study of things, instead of reading
- 34:06Speaker 1: many books. There is no end, and what study is
- 34:09Speaker 1: a weariness to the soul. He says, this is the
- 34:11Speaker 1: conclusion of the matter. Fear God and keep his commandments,
- 34:14Speaker 1: for this is the whole duty of man. But as
- 34:17Speaker 1: far as seeking God is concerned, even in heaven, our
- 34:20Speaker 1: pursuit still continues. Is someone learning Exodus chapter thirty three
- 34:26Speaker 1: and verse fourteen. We're discussing the first price, the price
- 34:30Speaker 1: of a deeper experience with God.
- 34:33Speaker 2: This is Moses.
- 34:35Speaker 1: They are about to leave a went together so journing
- 34:39Speaker 1: through the wilderness. And he said, my presence shall go
- 34:43Speaker 1: with thee, and I will give you rest. Speaking to
- 34:46Speaker 1: Moses now verse fifteen, and he said, Moses is replying.
- 34:52Speaker 2: Now, if your presence.
- 34:53Speaker 1: Does not go with us, do not take us away
- 34:56Speaker 1: from here. Our journey is useless if we do not
- 34:59Speaker 1: have the backing of your presence. This is a word
- 35:02Speaker 1: for someone before you start taking steps, very fie where
- 35:06Speaker 1: that God is with you. If money is the only
- 35:08Speaker 1: thing that is with you, you are still in trouble.
- 35:11Speaker 2: Money can be with you.
- 35:12Speaker 1: My knows God you are only getting into trouble because
- 35:15Speaker 1: even the door that will lead you to trouble must
- 35:18Speaker 1: be opened to So not every open door is God's door.
- 35:22Speaker 1: Satan also opens doors. The prison has doors, and just
- 35:26Speaker 1: because the prison door is open, you can be open
- 35:29Speaker 1: for you to enter inside. Not Gody enters into the
- 35:33Speaker 1: prison with a closed door. The door will first have
- 35:36Speaker 1: to be opened. Among the many things you have to
- 35:40Speaker 1: verify on your way, every once in a while, take
- 35:44Speaker 1: a break and check what do I have.
- 35:46Speaker 2: Around my life? I have results?
- 35:48Speaker 1: What do I have around my life? Anointing? What do
- 35:50Speaker 1: I have around my life?
- 35:51Speaker 2: Shame?
- 35:52Speaker 1: What do I have around my life? More money than
- 35:54Speaker 1: I had last year? If God is not at the
- 35:58Speaker 1: top of everything around you, stop there and make sure
- 36:01Speaker 1: you secure His presence before the journey continues.
- 36:05Speaker 2: If someone learning.
- 36:05Speaker 1: Now failure to do that will only cause you casualties.
- 36:11Speaker 2: This is the mistake of great people. They begin with.
- 36:14Speaker 1: God, but then they get to a point in their
- 36:17Speaker 1: Christian experience where they feel, listen, do I really need
- 36:20Speaker 1: God a becoming a celebrity?
- 36:22Speaker 2: I am famous.
- 36:23Speaker 1: Remember the teaching tonight is not for those who are starting.
- 36:26Speaker 1: The teaching tonight is the secret for remaining and increasing.
- 36:32Speaker 1: You know what it takes to start to start the church,
- 36:36Speaker 1: to start the ministry, to start the business. Be careful
- 36:40Speaker 1: when you begin to have results, because among the many
- 36:44Speaker 1: things that will look too heavy for you to carry,
- 36:46Speaker 1: maybe God.
- 36:47Speaker 2: And so you can throw God aside so that.
- 36:50Speaker 1: The luggage will be easier to continue the journey. I'd
- 36:55Speaker 1: rather stay in one place with God than to move
- 36:58Speaker 1: with other things and without him.
- 37:00Speaker 2: This was wise.
- 37:01Speaker 1: Remember when they left Egypt, I hope you know they
- 37:03Speaker 1: did not live empty. They left with gold. Remember they
- 37:07Speaker 1: left with a lot of things. Moses would have said,
- 37:11Speaker 1: we have gold. If enemies come to capture us, we
- 37:13Speaker 1: just negotiate with them and say, okay, we are not empty.
- 37:16Speaker 2: We have gold.
- 37:16Speaker 1: But it said, if your presence will not go with us,
- 37:20Speaker 1: do not take us away from here. Let's finish that
- 37:22Speaker 1: Scripture sixteen. It says, for wherein shall it be known
- 37:28Speaker 1: here that I and thy people have found grace in
- 37:31Speaker 1: your sight? Is it not in that thou goest with us?
- 37:34Speaker 1: So shall we be separated or distinguished Aye and thy
- 37:39Speaker 1: people from the people that are upon the face of
- 37:42Speaker 1: the earth. There is a mark that comes upon a
- 37:45Speaker 1: destiny that values divine presence. You carry divine presence in ministry.
- 37:49Speaker 2: The difference will be clear and unmistakable.
- 37:53Speaker 1: You carry divine presence in business. You carry it in
- 37:56Speaker 1: raising your children. You carry it in exploring your desert.
- 38:00Speaker 2: Any adventure.
- 38:06Speaker 1: Some of you have thrown God so that you have
- 38:08Speaker 1: space to collect money. Some of you, till God I
- 38:11Speaker 1: say necessary, you threw him away. You are too much
- 38:14Speaker 1: of a luggage. I noticed that every time I hold you,
- 38:18Speaker 1: when people.
- 38:18Speaker 2: Try to offer me money, I can't collect it.
- 38:21Speaker 1: Some of you have thrown God so that you will
- 38:22Speaker 1: preserve your pride. The price for new dimensions number one
- 38:28Speaker 1: is a deeper experience with God.
- 38:32Speaker 3: Take your place, take your place, take your place, take
- 38:45Speaker 3: your place.
- 38:49Speaker 2: Take my body, my soul, my swavings. Breathe on me,
- 38:58Speaker 2: take my body, my soul, all my spaving, Read on
- 39:03Speaker 2: the allelujah. Never let the pursuit.
- 39:08Speaker 1: Of God become an embarrassment because of where you have arrived.
- 39:14Speaker 2: Can I kneel down again? Will it be? Will it
- 39:16Speaker 2: not be an inconvenience?
- 39:18Speaker 1: Can I lift my hands in worship again? With all
- 39:21Speaker 1: my subordinates here I now run a conglomerate with offices
- 39:25Speaker 1: in UK with offices in in in in Russia, with
- 39:29Speaker 1: offices in America, and all of my subordinates are there.
- 39:33Speaker 1: Now I'm a great man of God. I have a
- 39:35Speaker 1: lot of sons. Can I be embarrassed to roll on
- 39:38Speaker 1: the floor before God? Never get to a point where
- 39:41Speaker 1: your love for God becomes a thing of shame. You
- 39:44Speaker 1: are already in trouble. Allelujah.
- 39:49Speaker 2: H Never let your clothes be too expensive that you
- 39:52Speaker 2: cannot touch the ground.
- 39:54Speaker 1: M When the of God was being returned back to Jerusalem, David,
- 40:03Speaker 1: who was king at that time, he danced in a
- 40:06Speaker 1: way that looked like he was a madman. The Bible
- 40:09Speaker 1: described this as an undignified dance.
- 40:12Speaker 2: And his wife, who Assault's.
- 40:14Speaker 1: Daughter, looked at him in shame and said, oh, dear,
- 40:17Speaker 1: what a foolish and stupid king. Look at how you
- 40:21Speaker 1: brought reproach to yourself before your contemporaries. And he said,
- 40:25Speaker 1: let me tell you something. I know you and my wife,
- 40:27Speaker 1: but I need to educate you. I am not dancing
- 40:30Speaker 1: before this man. I am dancing before God, who collected
- 40:33Speaker 1: the kingdom from your father and gave it to me.
- 40:38Speaker 1: David acknowledged that that reme he was given he was
- 40:44Speaker 1: who would have known do you know there is nowhere?
- 40:47Speaker 1: David was not like Joseph, who had a dream that
- 40:50Speaker 1: one day he will become king.
- 40:52Speaker 2: The Bible never.
- 40:52Speaker 1: Records at least Joseph had a consolation he was dreaming.
- 40:56Speaker 2: David never knew.
- 40:58Speaker 1: If you asked David in the wilderness, DEVI, who will
- 41:01Speaker 1: you become?
- 41:01Speaker 2: He will say I will become a warrior.
- 41:03Speaker 1: Not knowing that that victory was only a starting point.
- 41:06Speaker 1: Someone is already celebrating success too much. You are already
- 41:10Speaker 1: celebrated overst celebrating a little rem whereas God's call and
- 41:15Speaker 1: destiny for you is that he will make you.
- 41:17Speaker 2: Captain over his inheritance. Is someone learning.
- 41:27Speaker 1: The god you found in the wilderness must be the
- 41:31Speaker 1: god you are in the palace. If the god you
- 41:35Speaker 1: found in the wilderness was powerful enough to bring you
- 41:38Speaker 1: in the palace, you will be foolish to throw him
- 41:41Speaker 1: away from Dagon.
- 41:43Speaker 2: When Devid came and.
- 41:44Speaker 1: Met Saul and proposed to fight Goliad, Saul said, okay,
- 41:49Speaker 1: I am a king.
- 41:50Speaker 2: I have the best of amory. Take all my amori.
- 41:53Speaker 1: And he said, King, I respect you, but I have
- 41:55Speaker 1: my weapons that I was trained with. I'm not here
- 41:59Speaker 1: to come and it's not just military might. I have
- 42:02Speaker 1: a covenant by reason of my seeking God.
- 42:05Speaker 2: Let me tell you the truth.
- 42:07Speaker 1: In this end time, God will raise on assuming, on
- 42:10Speaker 1: usual people, people who when you add them up, they
- 42:14Speaker 1: don't equal to the result that should be. But because
- 42:17Speaker 1: of their determination to seek and work with God, God
- 42:21Speaker 1: will carry some things as gifts. God will carry the
- 42:24Speaker 1: prayer requests of nations and institutions and give individuals as
- 42:29Speaker 1: a testament for seeking them. You believe what I'm telling you.
- 42:35Speaker 1: You've not saien prosperity yet until you see people who
- 42:39Speaker 1: are assuming, who will be custodians of the wealth of
- 42:42Speaker 1: the Kingdom, that God will give it to them by himself.
- 42:45Speaker 1: If you in terms show them in terms of business intelligence.
- 42:48Speaker 1: The truth is that you will be disappointed. They don't
- 42:51Speaker 1: add up. Yet you cannot deny the result because they
- 42:54Speaker 1: sought the Lord. Many many kinds of graces and anointings
- 43:03Speaker 1: that have not yet been released, but are coming.
- 43:06Speaker 2: I tell you will see men.
- 43:08Speaker 1: Rights who are like gods upon the earth, power and dimensions,
- 43:12Speaker 1: miracles and the manifestations of the spirit, the death, yes,
- 43:16Speaker 1: and the blindness you are talking about. It will be
- 43:18Speaker 1: common occurrence. You will not have to put a crusade
- 43:21Speaker 1: for that to happen. That people will be walking on
- 43:24Speaker 1: the streets and they will pass a much worry, and
- 43:27Speaker 1: dead bodies will come back to life without the people
- 43:30Speaker 1: even knowing that they were used by God to heal
- 43:33Speaker 1: the sea.
- 43:39Speaker 2: Shakha Sadi. This is what God wants to do.
- 43:44Speaker 1: But there is a price, the price of a deep
- 43:49Speaker 1: power with God. Father, you are blessed me. Now I
- 43:53Speaker 1: have a mansion, Now I have cars, Now I have influence,
- 43:57Speaker 1: but I count the board, don't the way I roll
- 44:00Speaker 1: ten years ago.
- 44:01Speaker 2: I will see you roll in your presence.
- 44:03Speaker 1: My clothes may have changed, but my allegiance will never change.
- 44:07Speaker 1: My clothes may have changed, but my worship will not change.
- 44:10Speaker 1: My ti may have changed, my pe degree may have changed,
- 44:14Speaker 1: but you still remain my God.
- 44:18Speaker 2: Someone praying one minute.
- 44:20Speaker 1: Lord, I repent for trying to replace you with many
- 44:24Speaker 1: things on my way to greatness.
- 44:29Speaker 2: Please pray for someone. This is why you came to church,
- 44:42Speaker 2: Charle Brenda Baracoa Barada Sha Broad Tabaroska Theater.
- 44:57Speaker 1: You my God as a shepherd and as a king.
- 45:05Speaker 2: You are my God as an employee and as an entrepreneur.
- 45:12Speaker 2: You are my car, you.
- 45:20Speaker 5: My God.
- 45:23Speaker 2: No matter where I got you, no matter where I
- 45:25Speaker 2: decod you.
- 45:40Speaker 1: See, let me tell you something. Please listen, listen and learn.
- 45:43Speaker 1: We still have a lot to look at. Do you
- 45:48Speaker 1: know when God begins to lift you and put you
- 45:52Speaker 1: in a position of influence. Now you are in an
- 45:56Speaker 1: elevated position where people watch you, and the first thing
- 45:59Speaker 1: they one to watch is.
- 46:01Speaker 2: Who you honor and what you love.
- 46:03Speaker 1: You can influence a generation with one encounter to reject
- 46:08Speaker 1: Christ because you have mismanaged influence. There are many people
- 46:15Speaker 1: today who foiled all kinds of vows to God.
- 46:18Speaker 2: Lord, if you lived me, I will stand for you.
- 46:21Speaker 1: But now, when you begin to fly around the world,
- 46:24Speaker 1: you come into a realm of priority living where your
- 46:28Speaker 1: name has become a key to many lives. Chances are
- 46:31Speaker 1: excellent that God now becomes a luggage and an inconvenience
- 46:34Speaker 1: for you. Many have lost their touch with God. Many
- 46:40Speaker 1: have maintained a level at a level that God lives
- 46:43Speaker 1: you while you are still doing two verses per day.
- 46:46Speaker 2: Honestly, you are not a serious Christian.
- 46:48Speaker 1: Maybe for a start as a believer. The first of
- 46:55Speaker 1: ten years ago must be restored back the prayer of
- 47:00Speaker 1: ten years ago must be a start back the sitting
- 47:03Speaker 1: outside of ten years ago, where you say, Lord, it
- 47:06Speaker 1: is in the dead of the night, but I'm still
- 47:08Speaker 1: awake with you.
- 47:09Speaker 2: Here to worship you, wiley to worship you.
- 47:15Speaker 6: Why leave, I leave to worship you, to worship you, wiley,
- 47:26Speaker 6: to worship.
- 47:27Speaker 2: You, I leave, I leave to worship you. Oh oh, oh,
- 47:47Speaker 2: oh allelujah. You have heard me say this.
- 48:08Speaker 1: Everything God gives you is not all He wants to
- 48:11Speaker 1: give you at any point in your life. Whatever you
- 48:16Speaker 1: receive from God, just know that it is part of
- 48:19Speaker 1: the full package, no matter how great it is.
- 48:22Speaker 2: God gave me one billion ah. That is all.
- 48:26Speaker 1: And God is saying so the goal is four hundred
- 48:29Speaker 1: billions and billions of dollars to fund the kingdom. And
- 48:33Speaker 1: just because you had one billion in your mind, it
- 48:35Speaker 1: has carried you away.
- 48:37Speaker 2: God gave me this.
- 48:38Speaker 1: God now made me an estata whatever it is. I
- 48:44Speaker 1: cast my cround before the higherzow heality.

- 50:09Speaker 1: your washing, your allegiance to the King of kings, who
- 50:13Speaker 1: make someone to say, listen ordinary, I would have loved
- 50:16Speaker 1: at this person, but I saw him ten years ago
- 50:19Speaker 1: the same rolling. I laughed at the rolling, But look

- 50:40Speaker 1: new dimensions, a deeper work with God.
- 50:44Speaker 2: Please it down. Price number two. Let's hurry up so
- 50:53Speaker 2: we can pray tonight if someone already blessed.
- 50:57Speaker 1: The second prize that must be paid a non negotiable price.
- 51:03Speaker 1: Listen very carefully, now, just help those on that they annoynting.
- 51:06Speaker 1: But please don't be distracted. If you must accent higher
- 51:11Speaker 1: levels not only in the spirit, but in life and
- 51:15Speaker 1: in destiny, superior levels of exploits ever increasing testimonies.
- 51:22Speaker 2: The price of bending focus. That is the second price, the.
- 51:27Speaker 1: Price of bending focus. Show me a man of im
- 51:34Speaker 1: bending focus, a man who will not be distracted, whether
- 51:39Speaker 1: by success or failure.
- 51:41Speaker 2: I show you a man who will remain an increase.
- 51:45Speaker 1: Philippians, chapter three, from verse thirteen even to fifteen. Philippians,
- 51:50Speaker 1: Chapter three. Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended.
- 51:56Speaker 1: He's speaking to brethren. We're talking about a so Paul here,
- 52:02Speaker 1: Paul the.
- 52:02Speaker 2: Great, Paul the.
- 52:04Speaker 1: Anointed, Paul the miracle walker, Paul the Leanard, Paul the intelligence. Brethren,
- 52:13Speaker 1: I count not myself. That means you can count me
- 52:16Speaker 1: to have apprehended. But this is my honest review about
- 52:20Speaker 1: my life. I count not myself to have apprehended.
- 52:24Speaker 2: But this one thing I do.
- 52:26Speaker 1: Forgetting those things which are behind. He never said forgetting
- 52:30Speaker 1: wrong things that are behind. He never said forgetting good
- 52:34Speaker 1: things that are behind. He said, forgetting those things that
- 52:37Speaker 1: are behind, and reaching forth to the things which are before.
- 52:41Speaker 2: Ah, that are always things before.
- 52:46Speaker 1: I press towards the mark of the price of the
- 52:49Speaker 1: high calling of God in Christ Jesus. It says, let
- 52:56Speaker 1: us therefore, as many as be matures the meaning of
- 53:00Speaker 1: the word perfect be thus minded.
- 53:03Speaker 2: How minded?
- 53:04Speaker 1: That means, at any point in your life, count yourself
- 53:08Speaker 1: to not have apprehended a way together. Now that, even
- 53:11Speaker 1: though you are honestly receiving an applaud justifiably so for
- 53:15Speaker 1: the strikes the kingdom strikes, you are making that you
- 53:18Speaker 1: get to a point where you do not allow your
- 53:21Speaker 1: focus to bend.
- 53:24Speaker 2: I count myself to not have apprehended. But this one
- 53:28Speaker 2: thing I do.
- 53:31Speaker 1: Is that chapter fifty and verse seven I found the scripture,
- 53:36Speaker 1: and it was quite interesting. The Bible says, for the
- 53:39Speaker 1: Lord God will help me, Therefore shall I not be confounded.
- 53:44Speaker 1: Therefore I have set my face like a flint, and
- 53:48Speaker 1: I know that I shall not be ashamed. There is
- 53:50Speaker 1: a relationship between focus away together now focus and advancement.
- 53:57Speaker 1: There is a relationship between distraction and shame. The price
- 54:04Speaker 1: of on bending focus. I wrote a few things here
- 54:07Speaker 1: that I wanted to see. Number one under the price
- 54:12Speaker 1: for on bending focus, you must obtain grace to fight
- 54:16Speaker 1: a rival mentality arrival in court. You must obtain grace
- 54:22Speaker 1: from God to.
- 54:23Speaker 2: Fight arrival mentality.
- 54:25Speaker 1: Have arrived at this level of anointing, have arrived at
- 54:29Speaker 1: this level of grace. I've arrived at this level of revelation.
- 54:33Speaker 1: I've arrived at this level of prosperity. I have ten estates.
- 54:37Speaker 1: I'm a billionaire, I'm a politician.
- 54:39Speaker 2: Finally, I've gotten to be a house member or senator,
- 54:43Speaker 2: or president or governor or whatever it is. I am
- 54:46Speaker 2: now a CEO.
- 54:47Speaker 1: I am now the African representative of this bank or
- 54:51Speaker 1: this conglomerates. Arrival mentality has destroyed many people. Same Philippians.
- 55:00Speaker 1: Please give us three and verse twelve. Let's read twelve
- 55:02Speaker 1: and thirteen. Same Philippians, Chapter three from verse twelve, Philippians.
- 55:14Speaker 2: Three twelve.
- 55:16Speaker 1: Okay, let me just pull it up here so that
- 55:18Speaker 1: we don't waste time. Philippians, hallelujah. All right, he said,
- 55:28Speaker 1: not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect.
- 55:35Speaker 1: But I follow after if that I may apprehend that
- 55:38Speaker 1: for which I am apprehended of Jesus Christ.
- 55:41Speaker 2: Verse thirteen. It says, brethren, Now where we read, I
- 55:44Speaker 2: count myself. So he's saying it is not. As far
- 55:47Speaker 2: as I'm concerned, No matter what you tell me, I
- 55:50Speaker 2: still walk.
- 55:51Speaker 1: Like somebody who has something in front. I don't walk
- 55:54Speaker 1: like someone who has arrived. You know what arrival mentality
- 55:57Speaker 1: is that means you get to a point where you
- 55:59Speaker 1: tell yourself, I'm not talking of contentment. Arrival mentality is
- 56:04Speaker 1: very different from contentment allelujah, where you feel there is
- 56:09Speaker 1: nothing more to do with your life as far as
- 56:12Speaker 1: maximizing life is concerned.
- 56:14Speaker 2: You know that happened to Lucifer.
- 56:18Speaker 1: I will ascend above the starts of God, and I
- 56:21Speaker 1: will be like the most high. After all, my office
- 56:24Speaker 1: is the custodian of the mysteries of Heaven, so I
- 56:26Speaker 1: think I know everything.
- 56:28Speaker 2: Little did he know that there was more. Beware of
- 56:36Speaker 2: arrival mentality. I wrote something down here.
- 56:39Speaker 1: Both failure and success, both discouragement and over celebration of
- 56:46Speaker 1: results can be distractions. That means success and failure can
- 56:53Speaker 1: do the same thing to you.
- 56:54Speaker 2: Eventually.
- 56:56Speaker 1: Failure can discourage you, success can create complain and see.
- 57:01Speaker 1: While it is good and honest to celebrate every stride,
- 57:04Speaker 1: you must be careful and manage your celebration so that
- 57:08Speaker 1: you do not overst celebrate results.
- 57:11Speaker 2: Now, the truth is that.
- 57:13Speaker 1: When you rise among people who are lower than you,
- 57:17Speaker 1: no matter how little your results is, it will look
- 57:20Speaker 1: big in the eyes of those lower than you. You
- 57:23Speaker 1: must be honest with yourself and engage yourself by a
- 57:26Speaker 1: global kingdom standard and.
- 57:29Speaker 2: Then ask yourself, have I really gone there?
- 57:32Speaker 1: In Africa we celebrate very small things, small results, small results.
- 57:40Speaker 2: In business.
- 57:41Speaker 1: In ministry, you will see a little corporation that maybe
- 57:46Speaker 1: it's netting just a few million nira even not even dollars.
- 57:50Speaker 2: And yet the pride that the leaders and the executives have,
- 57:53Speaker 2: respectfully speaking, just because you can afford food to eat,
- 57:59Speaker 2: just because you have a house, you have a car,
- 58:01Speaker 2: just because you can afford a bit of Log's relieving
- 58:04Speaker 2: and a few things. That is not all there is
- 58:07Speaker 2: to life. There is so much more. Are we together?
- 58:13Speaker 2: The price of bending focus.
- 58:17Speaker 1: I talk to myself every time on this wise, Joshua Slman,
- 58:20Speaker 1: thank God.
- 58:21Speaker 2: For what God is doing in your life. My phone
- 58:24Speaker 2: is full of.
- 58:24Speaker 1: Text messages from people literally across the globe without exaggeration.
- 58:29Speaker 2: Oh Man of God, I listen to this.
- 58:30Speaker 1: This one happened, and in all fairness, they are not lying. However,
- 58:37Speaker 1: you must tell yourself everything God has given me now
- 58:40Speaker 1: it's not all He plans to give me.
- 58:43Speaker 2: Every level is the test for the next level. Every level.
- 58:48Speaker 2: As soon as you achieve something in a level.
- 58:51Speaker 1: Not that it is automatically the exam you are writing
- 58:54Speaker 1: for the next level. Every level of achievement is the
- 58:58Speaker 1: test you must pass for the next level. Away together,
- 59:12Speaker 1: so both failure and success. If you have done well
- 59:16Speaker 1: and the world is celebrating, you don't run away, don't
- 59:18Speaker 1: push it away and say no, no, no, don't celebrate me, no,
- 59:21Speaker 1: no no.
- 59:22Speaker 2: But you must know when to draw the line.
- 59:25Speaker 1: The moment's celebration becomes flattery and it's already planting the
- 59:28Speaker 1: seed of complacency. You must stop and say thank you,
- 59:31Speaker 1: I have received enough to motivate me for the next level.
- 59:34Speaker 2: My exams are started.
- 59:37Speaker 1: You must know when the feast of celebration is over
- 59:40Speaker 1: and when you've entered the classroom to write the exams.
- 59:42Speaker 1: If you are still dancing in the classroom, believing that
- 59:45Speaker 1: the classroom is a place for celebration, you will fail
- 59:47Speaker 1: your exams. Thank God for this new level of the prophetic.
- 59:52Speaker 1: Thank God for this new level of grace, this new
- 59:54Speaker 1: level of insight. But now that you have given me,
- 59:57Speaker 1: oh God, thank you for it. But I know it
- 59:59Speaker 1: is an I'm writing. Moreover, it is required in stewards
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: that a man be found faithful.
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: Allelujah.
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: There are many, many, little, small prayer groups that will
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: never grow into a giant kingdom platform for blessing the nations,
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: because right from infancy many of them are almost killing
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: themselves on arrival.
- 1:00:23Speaker 2: Let me tell you this. I'm speaking particularly to those
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: who probably ministry, business and all of that.
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: Let us be very careful, let us be very careful.
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: Let's learn from our fathers. There is nothing that somebody
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: can want that has not been given. And yet these fathers,
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: you see them with humility, including businessmen. Look, let me
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: tell you, for those of you who have had the
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: opportunity to sit with billoonaeres and very wealthy people, you
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: will be flattered by their humility and their sense of.
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: Honor and respect, and you'll be asking, is it really?
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: Is it? These people are?
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: And then the ones that don't have anything, you will
- 1:01:01Speaker 1: know immediately that they don't have anything. A wing together,
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: a wealthy man can entire restaurant and it's very cautious.
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: Breatin people, good afternoon, how are you?
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: And somebody will tell you that's the owner of this restaurant,
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: And you'll hear somebody who will sit down five minutes
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: is impatient?
- 1:01:20Speaker 2: You've kept me waiting here. You don't know who I am.
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: You better, he said, you easily know when people begin
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: to when they lose focus and they lose vision.
- 1:01:29Speaker 2: Listen.
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: I don't know if I've taught it here, but if
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: you study the life of Gideon. There were two tests
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: that they had to pass to qualify the three hundred
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: who defeated the Median Kites.
- 1:01:43Speaker 2: When Gideon blew.
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: The trumpet, the Bible says thirty three thousand people came,
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: but there were too many. God said, he said, no,
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: I can't take this people to the place of destiny
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: like this. Test Number one, whoever is afraid, whoever loves
- 1:01:58Speaker 1: and misses his home modern the future, go back, and
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: the Bible says about twenty or twenty two thousand people
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: went back. That means everybody was, yeah, we make it,
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: but somewhere already dead on arrival. They went back and
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: he said there are still too many. Test number two.
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: He told them you would get to the water brooks.
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: The water Brooks was not at the beginning of the journey.
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: You would have to make some progress, And it says
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: todded their behavior in the presence of that water.
- 1:02:27Speaker 2: Those who bend and lap like dogs.
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: Those are the ones that I want you to keep.
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: Those who sit down and properly drink like human beings,
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: let them go back home.
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: Do you know what that meant?
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: If you watch a dog and as it takes water,
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: it never takes water sitting on, lying down, it means
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: and I'm aware that I still have somewhere to go.
- 1:02:50Speaker 2: This is a momentary success.
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: By the time you get to the water brooks after
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: working for a long time, that is a sign of results.
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: Now you have gotten water to quench your thirst. And
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: it said those who sit down, that means they have camped.
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: I'm not standing up again. Let them go home their attitude.
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: Those who laugh like dogs, that means they still have
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: the sense of vision that this is just a momentary blessing.
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: But the real Johny is not to I didn't leave
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: my home to come and drink water. I left my
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: home to go and defeat the media knights. And if
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: I find what out the way, thank god. But I
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: will not come there.
- 1:03:24Speaker 2: And we will never settle for less we know there's
- 1:03:32Speaker 2: more that's founding you, and we will never settle.
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: Less we know there's more that's founding you prophesied to yourself,
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: and we will never settle for less.
- 1:03:54Speaker 2: When we know.
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: Pry this number two the price of on bending focus,
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: on bending focus. Can you still remember the vision of
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: your ministry or you are forgotten? Can you still remember
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: the vision of your organization? Can you still remember what
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: you wrote on paper? Some of you have given misplaced
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: the notebooks where you wrote the visions that govern your life,
- 1:04:25Speaker 1: because as at the time you wrote it, you didn't
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: have a business.
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: As at the time you wrote it, you didn't know
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: you would be this great. You wrote many things there.
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: Now you cannot even find the book. Buy another one
- 1:04:40Speaker 2: and start again.
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: If the words are really precious, you honor them by
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: writing it says, right, for these words are faithful, Right,
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: they are true, allelujah. If you don't have a vision
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: for your life and the things that you are doing,
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: life will give you many visions, use less, visions that
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: are inconsistent with the blueprint of your call for someone
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: God is speaking to you. Get back, go back home
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: and open that notebook. The way this ministry is going
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: is that what God told us.
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: We started well, But on the way they said, if
- 1:05:17Speaker 2: you are going like this, you will be hungry. And
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: he says, oh, which one works?
- 1:05:20Speaker 7: Now?
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: They said, let me tell you the one that works.
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: Now do this, do that, and you have heered of
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: from what God told you, and you're covenant with God.
- 1:05:31Speaker 2: Are we together.
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: On bending focus. We need to become people of focus
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: so that you are not distracted. Thank God for the
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: great things, but you.
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: Must be at your vision.
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: Thank God for food, thank God for the blessings that
- 1:05:52Speaker 1: follow destiny, but never be distracted by them. I listened
- 1:05:58Speaker 1: to a video I watched video years ago. I think
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: it was by Latestive Jobs. It was a video that
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: they did in nineteen ninety two or thereabout, and it
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: was then, you know, they were really very small, and
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: he was doing a little training for some of the
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: senior executives of his corporation then and I listened.
- 1:06:19Speaker 2: Very carefully to what he told them.
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: He told them that our goal is you know, I
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: can't remember exactly what he said the goal was, but
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: there was no mention of money there, there was no
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: mention of fame.
- 1:06:30Speaker 2: There, there was no mention of.
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: Reaching the goal world, just like a human effort of
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: becoming famous.
- 1:06:36Speaker 2: They were never part of the goals. The goal was
- 1:06:40Speaker 2: to be.
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: Able, based on what they said, to at least be
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: able to contribute to make the world a better place
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: by offering whatever it is that they were offering. I
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: said no one that they became great for someone from
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: beginning you said, this life, my year.
- 1:06:55Speaker 2: He must come. That's your goal.
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: And you find out you will go far that way,
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: because already you are already at the corridors of compromise,
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: because the goal is not the goal is not pure
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: and not the goal is not superior enough to guide
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: your life.
- 1:07:11Speaker 2: And word of.
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: Distractions number three, someone learning. The third price for greater
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: and higher dimensions is the price of greater enlightenment. Oh
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: please settle and listen to this one. The price for
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: greater enlightenment or the price of greater enlightenment Galatians, Chapter two.
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: God is going to speak to someone now from verse
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: one and two.
- 1:07:51Speaker 5: Light me, Lord, light me, Lord, light me, Lord, like
- 1:07:57Speaker 5: candle light me. Low lights me low light Mela like
- 1:08:04Speaker 5: a candle lights Mela, lights me, load lights me, Lord
- 1:08:11Speaker 5: like a candle lights me.
- 1:08:13Speaker 2: Lord likes me Lord.
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: Price number three the price of greater enlightenment, Galicians two,
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: one and two. Then fourteen years later I went up
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: again to Jerusalem with Barnabas and took titles also with me.
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: I love.
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: Verse two, he says, and I went up by revelation.
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: I didn't go up by suggestion. I didn't go up
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: by what I went up by revelation. Of course it
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: has this literal meaning there to explain what he was doing.
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: But that is a prophetic expression. There I went up
- 1:08:53Speaker 1: in this kingdom, we go up by revelation. I went
- 1:08:57Speaker 1: up by revelation. First Corinthians, Chapter eight and verse two.
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: It has become an anthem in this house eight and
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: verse two, First Corinthians. If any man think that he
- 1:09:09Speaker 1: knowed anything, he says he knowed nothing, yet as he
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: ought to know the price of greater enlightenment. Acts Chapter eighteen,
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: from verse twenty four and twenty five.
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: Acts eighteen.
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: Remember a popular story. The Bible says a certain Jew
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: named Apollos. He was born at Alexandria, an eloquent man
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: and mighty in scriptures, the Bible says he came to Ephesos,
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: and then the man was instructed in the way of
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: the Lord. Being fervent in spirit, he spake and taught
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism
- 1:09:50Speaker 1: of John.
- 1:09:50Speaker 2: Let's beay twenty six. The Bible says, one time he
- 1:09:53Speaker 2: began to.
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: Speak boldly in the synagogue, whom when Aquila and Priscillia
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: had heard, they took him onto them and expounded onto
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: him the way of.
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: God more perfectly. The price of greater enlightenment.
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: Listen, if you want to rise higher in life, you
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: must content for greater levels of enlightenment.
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: And I broke this enlightenment into two number one.
- 1:10:26Speaker 1: The first dimension of greater enlightenment. You must content, for
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: they are called the mysteries of the Kingdom. Please write
- 1:10:35Speaker 1: the first dimension of enlightenment. You must content, for you
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: must content for higher and superior levels of the knowledge
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: of the mysteries of the Kingdom. Match with thirteen eleven.
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: For it has been given onto you to know the
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: mysteries of the Kingdom. The mysteries of the Kingdom.
- 1:10:57Speaker 2: We discuss this already.
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: Knowest thou, the Ordi man says of heaven, and canst
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: thou establish the dominion thereof on earth? So that's the
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: first dimension of the greater enlightenment. You must know the
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: mysteries of the Kingdom.
- 1:11:10Speaker 2: What are they?
- 1:11:11Speaker 1: The spiritual secrets by which dominion is activated through It's
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: important for you to know that dominion does not just happen.
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: Authority is not only is it doesn't just work arbitary.
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: It is on the strength of the mysteries of the
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: Kingdom that we command dominion in this earth.
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: But the second dimension not many believers have paid attention
- 1:11:34Speaker 2: to it.
- 1:11:35Speaker 1: It's called the law of life and the law of
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: human nature. The law of life and human nature. Listen,
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: there are superior levels of greatness, and there are dimensions
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: in this kingdom and in the cosmos that if you
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: do not understand the laws of life and the laws
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: that govern human nature, you can call them the laws
- 1:11:58Speaker 1: of the cosmos. There are laws that operate in this earth.
- 1:12:04Speaker 1: Friendly or to know them, you will get into all
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: kinds of trouble. When you are dealing with the mysteries
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: of the Kingdom. You will learn the laws of prayer
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: and priesthood.
- 1:12:14Speaker 2: Is that true.
- 1:12:15Speaker 1: You will learn the law of giving, you will learn
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: the law of meditation and speaking, and all of those things.
- 1:12:21Speaker 1: But as wonderful as that is, you must be able
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: to compliment it with the intelligence of the laws of
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: the cosmos. Most people do not know this. Let me
- 1:12:31Speaker 1: show you three scriptures. Look chapter sixteen and verse eight.
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: Hear what Jesus said. Look sixteen and verse eight. If
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: God is blessing you, say amen. He gave a parable of.
- 1:12:42Speaker 2: The unjust the Word.
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: And here was the conclusion of that parable. The Lord
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: commended the unjust the Word because he had done wisely
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: for the children of this world and in their generation.
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: He said, wiser than the children of light. He acknowledged
- 1:13:00Speaker 1: that they were the children of this world under the
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: influence of the cosmos, but he says they are wiser
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: than the children of lights. Do you know that Jesus
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: began his teaching. Look up, Please notice the structure of
- 1:13:14Speaker 1: Jesus's teaching. He began his teaching with what we call
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: the beatitudes. Are we together blessed? Are these the pure
- 1:13:22Speaker 1: in heart? For they shall see God? And then eventually
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: he switched into teaching them the cosmos, the world system.
- 1:13:31Speaker 2: He taught them.
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: He now began to give them enlightenment on how to
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: live effectively in the cosmos. Matthew chapter ten.
- 1:13:39Speaker 2: Please.
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: He began his teaching in Matthew chapter five, teaching them
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: on prayer, teaching them on several things, you know, righteousness
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: and all of that. By the time we get to
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: chapter ten from verse sixteen. Hear what he said, Jesus
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: now giving us the wisdom of living and excelling in
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: the cosmos. He said, behold, I send you fought as
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: sheep in the midst of wolves.
- 1:14:05Speaker 2: Be therefore wise as serpens.
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: One of the few times in the Bible where Jesus
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: would recommend on the studying the sapent. The serpent has
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: always typified Satan, evil and disaster. But when it has
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: to do with the intelligence, please keep the scripture of
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: excelling in these cosmos, he says. Make sure you learn
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: the wisdom of the serpent, and yet be as harmless
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: as doves. Seventeen give us seventeen, it says, But beware
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: of men. That is already a very strong instruction. He's
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: telling you, beware. There is something about the human nature
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: in the world that you are living in. Don't just
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: be a prayer warrior, a fasting giant, a revelation giant,
- 1:14:57Speaker 1: and then don't sustain wisdom.
- 1:14:59Speaker 2: Please look at me. Let me teach you this, my
- 1:15:01Speaker 2: precious people. Hear me.
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: Many believers are completely ignorant as far as the intelligence
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: of dealing with the cosmos is concerned, and it has
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: cost us many things beyond our imagination.
- 1:15:16Speaker 2: There are laws of human nature. There are laws that
- 1:15:22Speaker 2: you must know it is true. For instance, I've taught
- 1:15:26Speaker 2: you one of them. The law of seasons.
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: Is that true that no season remains consistent, seasons change.
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: It is a law that operates while the act remains.
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: It is not in your bible see time and harvest.
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: You will never have see time alone. You will never
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: have harvest a loan.
- 1:15:43Speaker 2: You must know how to take advantage of seasons.
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: When you see the rainy season for us in Nigeria,
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: here I told you, remember the law of seasons. Every
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: rainy season comes with a letter from dry season, I
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: am coming. And every dry season comes with a letter
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: from rainy season, I am coming. If you enjoy the
- 1:16:01Speaker 1: season and don't collect the letter and read it, you'll
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: be in trouble. Every time you see evil, it is
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: because there is good. It's called the law of polarity.
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: Every time you see darkness, it's because there is light.
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: Male female. God himself designed that law.
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: I'm not talking about some scientology and some demonishing.
- 1:16:26Speaker 2: I'm talking of the wisdom of the cosmos.
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: Jesus here is telling you on the study the serpent
- 1:16:31Speaker 1: there are men who have taken advantage of that season.
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: Even animals and ants that don't have conferences. They are
- 1:16:38Speaker 1: not filled with the holygoes. They don't pray in tongues,
- 1:16:40Speaker 1: but they have taken advantage of the laws of the egg,
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: and with it they have. Animals have never experienced ants
- 1:16:47Speaker 1: that we know, We have not seen them gang goop
- 1:16:51Speaker 1: together to say there is famine because they are laws
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: that they operate. They don't have an advantage as far
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: as we know. We know they praise God because the
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: Bible says that has breadth, let me.
- 1:17:01Speaker 2: Praise the Lord. But we don't know about prayer. Are
- 1:17:06Speaker 2: we together?
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: Human beings are the only species that are so disoriented.
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: The animals are to the Bible, to the point that
- 1:17:16Speaker 1: the Bible says our slogan, go to the ant and learn.
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: That they do not have a king.
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: In other words, there is problem with structure, and yet
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: in need they still excel the wisdom of the cosmos.
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: There are many natural laws that govern our world. Gravity
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: is not just a spiritual law, it is also a
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: natural law.
- 1:17:38Speaker 2: It is because of the awareness of it.
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: Today we have comeing to that awareness and we have
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: built things around it to our advantage. There are many
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: things you have to know about life and the nature
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: of men. Is someone learning now? I wrote here for instance,
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: you have to understand the principles of course and effect.
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: It will guide you in addition to the share of
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: the Lord that you have. If you understand that there
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: are consequences for every action, it will tame the things
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: that you do. There is a law of seasons, the
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: awareness of the selfish nature of men.
- 1:18:21Speaker 2: You can pray in tongues.
- 1:18:22Speaker 1: You can first have spiritual understanding, and then in addition,
- 1:18:26Speaker 1: when you now go to the work, the place of work,
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: or your place of business, there is an awareness that
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: all human beings are not like those in your house.
- 1:18:35Speaker 2: You know, most.
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: Believers have been shielded from the reality of how life
- 1:18:39Speaker 1: truly is.
- 1:18:40Speaker 2: They are used to inno send people.
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: They are used to You can keep your money in
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: your house and come and see someone package it for
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: you and say, with.
- 1:18:46Speaker 2: Love from your brother. And some of us believe that
- 1:18:49Speaker 2: the whole world is like that. Are we together? You
- 1:18:52Speaker 2: can be fasting and someone will cook for you and
- 1:18:55Speaker 2: say this is to sow into your life.
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: And then, for many, especially Christian families, the moment their
- 1:19:01Speaker 1: children have the honor.
- 1:19:03Speaker 2: You don't have to be evil to be exposed to
- 1:19:05Speaker 2: the loss of life.
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: Unfortunately, when you are exposing people and teaching them the.
- 1:19:11Speaker 2: Wisdom of the cosmos, they will say it's not necessary.
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: After all, I have God. I'm going to show you
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: something that will bless you. Is God blessing you already.
- 1:19:19Speaker 1: So many Christian young people especially are very naive as
- 1:19:24Speaker 1: to the realities of the cosmos. As soon as they
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: come out and they are no longer under the influence
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: of parents or guidance or church. Maybe they relocate out
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: of Nigeria, or they now get jobs, or they get married,
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: or something happens that exposes them to the world. They
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: spend about the first ten years of their lives paying
- 1:19:42Speaker 1: the price of ignorance. Spiritually alive, but very dead in
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: terms of.
- 1:19:48Speaker 2: The wisdom of the cosmos. So someone can come and say,
- 1:19:52Speaker 2: you know what, I'm a nice person. I love you
- 1:19:55Speaker 2: very much. How much do you have You say I have.
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: One million my father gave me and say, yes, settle me.
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: Say just bring it a very faithful person, and they
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: naively bring it because they say, no, it has to
- 1:20:04Speaker 1: be God.
- 1:20:04Speaker 2: Because this is how favor works. Most people do not understand.
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: The wisdom of the cosmos that the heart of man
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: is desperately wicked. That is a powerful information you should
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: store as you explore this adventure of life.
- 1:20:19Speaker 2: Is not to make you suspicious.
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: It now creates a prayer request, Lord, send good people
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: to my life. Send destiny help us through my life.
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: Because of the awareness of that law, are went together.
- 1:20:30Speaker 2: So the moment you hear that ah, the earth is
- 1:20:33Speaker 2: going to fold.
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: Up, you just know that based on the law of seasons,
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: the thing that is is the thing that was, and
- 1:20:39Speaker 1: the thing that will be thereafter you will find rest.
- 1:20:42Speaker 2: The only person who close the earth is the one
- 1:20:44Speaker 2: who opened it.
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: There is nothing that will happen on earth that is
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: enough to fold the earth like a curtain.
- 1:20:50Speaker 2: God will close the heath intentionally. It's not disaster that
- 1:20:53Speaker 2: will close the earth.
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: So no matter how bad what happens, you know economically, politically,
- 1:21:02Speaker 1: there will always be a way out.
- 1:21:04Speaker 2: We are not the first. There have been that ages
- 1:21:07Speaker 2: in history. Is that true? There has been famine in history?
- 1:21:12Speaker 2: Is that true? But there also has been abundance? Is
- 1:21:15Speaker 2: that true? Just the knowledge of the law.
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: Of seasons will give you the staying power through the
- 1:21:20Speaker 1: storms in your life.
- 1:21:21Speaker 2: So for this season, I do not have a job.
- 1:21:24Speaker 2: This season.
- 1:21:24Speaker 1: It looks like things are not working. But I understand
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: number one the integrity of God. But even within the cosmos,
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: I know that everything is transientd So rather than regretting
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: over current seasons, I begin to prepare and program the
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: seasons coming.
- 1:21:42Speaker 2: Someone getting blessed.
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: So Man of God, while you are looking at ten
- 1:21:45Speaker 1: members and saying, God, you can't do this to me,
- 1:21:48Speaker 1: not after all my days of fasting, you should know
- 1:21:50Speaker 1: that the way God walks, he walks by the law
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: of seasons. There is the law of time and chance,
- 1:21:56Speaker 1: there is the law of process. The knowledge of this
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: loss repair you immediately. If you hold twenty thousand, that
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: is not all you hold. He's only training your hands
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: to hold it.
- 1:22:06Speaker 2: Well.
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: It's God helping us. Believers are very ignorant. Let me
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: show you something. In Adds, Chapter seven and verse twenty two,
- 1:22:23Speaker 1: there are two personalities in the Bible who have really
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: really surprised me. Number one is called Moses. Number two
- 1:22:33Speaker 1: it's called Abraham. I have studied their lives carefully. Are
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: we together now? Because of the way they work with God?
- 1:22:40Speaker 1: And I found out that for every one of them.
- 1:22:44Speaker 1: Look at Moses. I want to show you something that
- 1:22:46Speaker 1: will surprise you. How many of you know that Moses's
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: assignment was a purely spiritual assignment.
- 1:22:53Speaker 2: It was the assignment of a deliverer. If Moses was in.
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: The New Testament, who will call him an apostle? And
- 1:22:59Speaker 1: yet look the nature of his training. The Bible says
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: God sent him to Egypt, and he learned. He was
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was
- 1:23:10Speaker 1: mighty in words and deeds. Why did God subject him
- 1:23:15Speaker 1: to go and learn the wisdom of Egypt, whereas his
- 1:23:18Speaker 1: assignment was just to bring people out and to take them.
- 1:23:21Speaker 2: Into the promised land? Is that in your Bible? Give
- 1:23:27Speaker 2: us Genesis twelve. I love preaching.
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: Give us Genesis twelfth. Let me just drum this thing
- 1:23:34Speaker 1: in mice. Please give us Genesis twelfth. May God bless you.
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: Thank you Genesis twelfth. Watch this now, So God is asking.
- 1:23:46Speaker 1: God is asking Abraham to leave his father's house and
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: all of that to a land that he would show him.
- 1:23:55Speaker 2: Is that true?
- 1:23:56Speaker 1: Now, let me show you something very powerful. Give us
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: from verse I'm trying to look for. Let's go to verse.
- 1:24:08Speaker 2: Verse ten.
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: Genesis twelve, Verse ten, Please be patient while I read.
- 1:24:13Speaker 2: Now.
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: Remember Abraham had had an encounter with God, and God said,
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: leave to the place of destiny.
- 1:24:20Speaker 2: I will do this for you.
- 1:24:21Speaker 1: You'll become a father of this and that. The Bible
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: now said there was famine in the land. Have you
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: noticed that every time there is hunger and famine, where
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: do they go to. This is true for Abraham, this
- 1:24:33Speaker 1: was true for Joseph, this was true for Moses. Egypt
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: is an Antichrist place. They do not understand kingdom in
- 1:24:41Speaker 1: terms of kingdom come, but they understand the wisdom of
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: the cosmos. And whenever God is training his people, among
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: the many things he does is he sends them to
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: Egypt and said, lends something from Egypt. The symbol of
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: Egypt is in not the serpent. Please talk to me.
- 1:24:57Speaker 1: So when it says, be as wise as the sa
- 1:25:00Speaker 1: and he's not just saying copy the snake. He's sent
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: there is a wisdom that comes with the cosmos. Give
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: us that skipture. Please, let's just walk it a bit.
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: Have I lost your media?
- 1:25:11Speaker 2: And there was.
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: Famine in the land, and Abraham went down to Egypt
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: to sow John there for the famine was grievous. Now
- 1:25:19Speaker 1: this was a man who had spoken with God. You
- 1:25:22Speaker 1: will think, after an encounter with God, he should never
- 1:25:25Speaker 1: feel the famine in the land. Your encounter, your alter
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: of prayer, your alter of worship, it may still be rich,
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: and you will be surprised. You will feel the effect
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: of the happenings around the cosmos?
- 1:25:37Speaker 2: Are we learning now? Eleven?
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: It came to pass when he was come here into Egypt.
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: Look at are you seeing? The pressure of Egypt made
- 1:25:49Speaker 1: him to start telling lies. He never told lies when
- 1:25:52Speaker 1: it was his relationship with God. But as soon as
- 1:25:55Speaker 1: he got into the system, the effect of ignorance on
- 1:25:59Speaker 1: how to operate in this system started producing in him,
- 1:26:02Speaker 1: like a man of God. Will start well, not intending
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: to bribe, not intending to do witchcraft. But as soon
- 1:26:09Speaker 1: as hunger comes, he can arrange a conference to raise money.
- 1:26:15Speaker 2: He said to Sarah, his wife, Behold, now I know
- 1:26:19Speaker 2: that thou art a fair woman. To look upon her.
- 1:26:21Speaker 2: Next verse, please let's hurry up media.
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: Therefore, it shall come to pass when the Egyptians shall
- 1:26:29Speaker 1: see thee they shall say, this is your wife, and
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: they shall kill me.
- 1:26:34Speaker 2: But you they will save you.
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: You see all these attributes finding expression, say, I pray
- 1:26:40Speaker 1: you that you are my sister, that it may be
- 1:26:43Speaker 1: well with me for your sake, and that I will leave.
- 1:26:46Speaker 2: Did he have to go there?
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: If you are going to tell that level of life
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: to go there, why don't you just go down? You
- 1:26:52Speaker 1: go back and hunger will kill you.
- 1:26:54Speaker 2: But you have to compromise and go into Egypt.
- 1:26:56Speaker 1: Are you seeing now? The prize for going into Egypt
- 1:26:59Speaker 1: is that you must be prepared for compromise. But if
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: you withdraw, you may keep whatever, and hunger will kill
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: you and you will die. Look at the delima that
- 1:27:08Speaker 1: this man is in now. If someone getting blessed fifteen, let's.
- 1:27:13Speaker 2: Finish up, let me read it? Yeah, this before if
- 1:27:17Speaker 2: I work with them, were going to be late.
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: The king's officials told him about her, and she was
- 1:27:22Speaker 1: taken to his house. The Bible says the king was
- 1:27:25Speaker 1: good to Abram because of Sarah, and Abram was given sheep.
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: Look at the gifts that he was giving. Are you
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: seeing where he got his well from? Where did he
- 1:27:34Speaker 1: get it from?
- 1:27:36Speaker 2: In Egypt?
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: His spirituality was powerful, but his wealth.
- 1:27:41Speaker 2: And dominion came when he went to Egypt.
- 1:27:45Speaker 1: He entreated Abram well for her sake, and he had
- 1:27:48Speaker 1: given him sheep, oxen and assis and men's servant, and
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: she assists and camels and all of that.
- 1:27:55Speaker 2: Let's read down, he says the Lord. Now, late Pharaoh,
- 1:28:02Speaker 2: are you saying that? Now? Everybody look at this. This
- 1:28:06Speaker 2: is powerful, my God.
- 1:28:08Speaker 1: Now he goes to meet the king in Egypt. Abmeleg
- 1:28:11Speaker 1: is that true? And abime Alex says, there is something
- 1:28:15Speaker 1: I'm looking for. But I understand that one of the
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: laws of life is the law of exchange. I will
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: have to entreat your favor.
- 1:28:23Speaker 2: This is what I have. Something must leave me for
- 1:28:26Speaker 2: something from you to come. Are you saying now, the
- 1:28:28Speaker 2: wisdom of Egypt. He didn't sit down and wish the
- 1:28:31Speaker 2: woman like many of us would do.
- 1:28:33Speaker 1: He said, no, I know that I have to give
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: you something that is valuable.
- 1:28:37Speaker 2: That you need. That. The table of de sin is
- 1:28:40Speaker 2: the table of negotiation.
- 1:28:42Speaker 1: It's not just the table of wishes. World leaders know this.
- 1:28:47Speaker 1: So it says, let me give you gifts. I see
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: that you are not very wealthy.
- 1:28:50Speaker 2: I am wealthy. I need this woman, you told me
- 1:28:52Speaker 2: as your sister.
- 1:28:53Speaker 1: It took God to intervene God to say yes, he
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: started plaguing him because.
- 1:28:58Speaker 2: Of Abraham's wife. Now that the power of a relationship
- 1:29:01Speaker 2: with God. After you have a relationship with.
- 1:29:04Speaker 1: God where you go to the cosmos and Satin wants
- 1:29:06Speaker 1: to take an advantage of you, the God.
- 1:29:08Speaker 2: Who you have a covenant, will now speak for you
- 1:29:11Speaker 2: like he's speaking.
- 1:29:12Speaker 1: But already notice already the gift has been given, and
- 1:29:16Speaker 1: there's no record of him collecting it back. Eighteen Pharaoh
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: called up Brahm and said, what is this that thou
- 1:29:25Speaker 1: hast done to me? Thou did not tell me that
- 1:29:27Speaker 1: she was your wife? Nineteen He says, why say it
- 1:29:31Speaker 1: now that she's my sister. I may have taken out
- 1:29:33Speaker 1: to wife. Now behold, take your wife and go, but
- 1:29:37Speaker 1: not alone.
- 1:29:37Speaker 2: Go with all the gifts that I brought to you.
- 1:29:40Speaker 2: Are we together? Now go with everything?
- 1:29:43Speaker 1: Verse twenty says that Pharaoh commanded the men concerning him.
- 1:29:47Speaker 1: They sent him away and his wife and all that
- 1:29:50Speaker 1: he had. Now give us thirteen Verse one, It will
- 1:29:53Speaker 1: make a lot of sense to you. Now Abraham went
- 1:29:56Speaker 1: out of Egypt, he and his wife and all that
- 1:30:00Speaker 1: he had a lot with him to the south.
- 1:30:03Speaker 2: Are we together?
- 1:30:04Speaker 1: So tell me, please? Why did God send him to Egypt.
- 1:30:07Speaker 1: From this story you read it, What did he really
- 1:30:12Speaker 1: do in Egypt? There was something he needed for his destiny,
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: but he was found in Egypt. He went out of Egypt.
- 1:30:29Speaker 1: Verse two, Abrahm was very rich in cattle. Aha, next
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: time you really you know where it came from. Now
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: he was rich in silver, he was rich in gold.
- 1:30:43Speaker 1: Let's stop there. Don't be afraid. When God sends you
- 1:30:48Speaker 1: to learn the wisdom of Egypt. You don't have to
- 1:30:52Speaker 1: be compromised. It is the wisdom of the serpent. You
- 1:30:55Speaker 1: can learn and still have the dignity of kingdom integrity.
- 1:30:59Speaker 1: Why because your relationship with God is still intact.
- 1:31:02Speaker 2: So he says you are a sheep in the midst
- 1:31:04Speaker 2: of wolves. You don't run away.
- 1:31:07Speaker 1: You have to wear the regalia of wolves to look
- 1:31:09Speaker 1: like one, but you know by hearts that you are sheep.
- 1:31:14Speaker 1: So you will register the company like other companies. You
- 1:31:18Speaker 1: will go for the board meetings too, with secular people
- 1:31:21Speaker 1: and antichrist people. You don't run away waiting for only
- 1:31:24Speaker 1: believers to teach you secular knowledge. You will go to
- 1:31:26Speaker 1: a university with heidionistic people, and while they're teaching, you
- 1:31:30Speaker 1: still have the conviction of Heaven.
- 1:31:33Speaker 2: Are we together now? Allelujah. It's very important for you
- 1:31:45Speaker 2: to understand this the price of greater enlightenment.
- 1:31:56Speaker 1: I've had the honor and the privilege of learning the
- 1:31:58Speaker 1: wisdom of leadership and even administration. And it is not
- 1:32:03Speaker 1: all the teachings. I have a system of verifying and
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: editing everything I learned. Albeit, my heart is open to
- 1:32:10Speaker 1: receive wisdom from people. They tell you someone is a
- 1:32:13Speaker 1: professor in Harvard and Oxford and yell.
- 1:32:16Speaker 2: It will be stupid of you to think they don't
- 1:32:18Speaker 2: know what they're saying.
- 1:32:19Speaker 1: They may not understand spiritual things, but as far as
- 1:32:22Speaker 1: the matters of Egypt is concerned, they have something you need.
- 1:32:25Speaker 2: This is where the pride of Christians come. We hold
- 1:32:28Speaker 2: our Bible and we say yes.
- 1:32:30Speaker 1: But the truth is that some of us cannot interpret
- 1:32:33Speaker 1: what is written there until we take advantage of.
- 1:32:35Speaker 2: The wisdom of Egypt.
- 1:32:39Speaker 1: You are not allowed to copy the lifestyle of Egypt,
- 1:32:43Speaker 1: not to bow to the gods of Egypt, but you
- 1:32:46Speaker 1: can extract their wisdom.
- 1:32:50Speaker 2: Are we learning so for some of you here, in.
- 1:32:53Speaker 1: Addition to your prayer, in addition to your first thing,
- 1:32:57Speaker 1: in addition to what God has done, you need to
- 1:33:00Speaker 1: go online and learn about administration and leadership. A thirty
- 1:33:04Speaker 1: minutes video on proper administration can turn your ministry to
- 1:33:09Speaker 1: a new dimension. The problem with the ministry is not spirituality.
- 1:33:12Speaker 1: You are doing well, but you do not know how
- 1:33:14Speaker 1: to multiply and preserve things. There are ministries that their
- 1:33:18Speaker 1: problem is financial management, because the truth is they do
- 1:33:21Speaker 1: not have the wisdom and intelligence for proper planning. It's
- 1:33:25Speaker 1: not that God is not faithful, but there is no system.
- 1:33:32Speaker 1: And this is even true for nations. No wonder, many
- 1:33:38Speaker 1: own believing nations seem to have economic stability, and they.
- 1:33:43Speaker 2: May not honor the God of Heaven.
- 1:33:45Speaker 1: But my goodness, you see the dexterity, you see organization.
- 1:33:49Speaker 2: In those nations.
- 1:33:50Speaker 1: We can humble ourselves and learn. When it has to
- 1:33:53Speaker 1: do with the wisdom of the cosmos, it is not.
- 1:33:55Speaker 2: On scriptural to learn aldit.
- 1:33:58Speaker 1: You submit it to the wisdom of the world, and
- 1:34:00Speaker 1: did the part of it that directly does not promote
- 1:34:03Speaker 1: kingdom com But there is a part of it that
- 1:34:05Speaker 1: is important. Look onto Abraham, your father, and to Saah
- 1:34:09Speaker 1: that beddy. If you ever find out how Abraham was rich.
- 1:34:13Speaker 1: He was sent to Egypt. The Bible says, talking about Moses,
- 1:34:19Speaker 1: now give us that Scriptures chapter seven and twenty two.
- 1:34:22Speaker 2: He says that Moses.
- 1:34:25Speaker 1: Was sent and he learned. He was learned in all
- 1:34:30Speaker 1: the wisdom of the Egyptians. God himself allowed him. I
- 1:34:35Speaker 1: hope you know Moses was in ministry. Moses was not
- 1:34:38Speaker 1: like Daniel, who was in politics. Do you know when
- 1:34:41Speaker 1: Daniel went. I wish we had time would have dealt
- 1:34:44Speaker 1: with the story of Daniel. When Daniel went to Egypt,
- 1:34:47Speaker 1: it's in your Bible. In Daniel, chapter one and verse eight,
- 1:34:51Speaker 1: the Bible says, when they went there as slaves. Daniel
- 1:34:54Speaker 1: proposed in his heart that you would not define himself
- 1:34:57Speaker 1: with the king's meat, not the king's knowledge. It was
- 1:35:01Speaker 1: the king's meat. He refused because it was given to idols.
- 1:35:04Speaker 1: But he was taught the ways of the Babylonians.
- 1:35:07Speaker 2: It's in your bible. He was the king's meat.
- 1:35:11Speaker 1: He rejected because this one was offered directly to idols.
- 1:35:15Speaker 1: But the wisdom of the Babylonians he had it. And
- 1:35:19Speaker 1: after ten days.
- 1:35:20Speaker 2: They tested him, he said he was ten times better.
- 1:35:23Speaker 2: Is it in your Bible? Could it be that there
- 1:35:29Speaker 2: are many many things?
- 1:35:31Speaker 1: In addition not in defiance to spiritual laws. We must
- 1:35:36Speaker 1: incorporate guided.
- 1:35:38Speaker 2: By the Word of God and structured mentorship. There are
- 1:35:41Speaker 2: laws of life.
- 1:35:42Speaker 1: There are realities about the human nature that we must
- 1:35:45Speaker 1: no one understand, or the wise failure will be imminent
- 1:35:49Speaker 1: for many people.
- 1:35:54Speaker 2: For the way of the Lord is the way of
- 1:36:01Speaker 2: jeers the way.
- 1:36:06Speaker 1: So if Jesus says the children of this world are
- 1:36:08Speaker 1: wiser than us, it means there is something we must learn.
- 1:36:12Speaker 2: For God to use Moses. He sent Moses to Egypt.
- 1:36:16Speaker 1: Moses spent a major part of his life on that
- 1:36:21Speaker 1: tutors and governors that were largely Antichrist. Abraham was sent
- 1:36:28Speaker 1: in Egypt, and he came back and got wisdom, and he.
- 1:36:31Speaker 2: Was able to use it. Joseph.
- 1:36:34Speaker 1: The same thing happened to Joseph. When Joseph went to Egypt.
- 1:36:38Speaker 1: Joseph did not just go to Egypt and sat there.
- 1:36:40Speaker 1: There were things he knew and learned, all for his enthronement.
- 1:36:45Speaker 2: What of Jesus.
- 1:36:46Speaker 1: Jesus came to abolish the law. But when he came,
- 1:36:49Speaker 1: the first thing he did was to go to the temple.
- 1:36:52Speaker 1: The same scribes and Pharisees who Jesus said, you are
- 1:36:55Speaker 1: of your father the devil.
- 1:36:57Speaker 2: Yet he's submitted to them, and he learned.
- 1:37:05Speaker 1: It is written that he used to defeat Satan was
- 1:37:08Speaker 1: Land in the temple.
- 1:37:11Speaker 2: Are we together? Even though he was the word of God?
- 1:37:14Speaker 2: Are you seeing the pattern there? The same thing happened
- 1:37:17Speaker 2: with Paul. Paul who would.
- 1:37:19Speaker 1: Later be used by God as a scribe and a pharisee.
- 1:37:23Speaker 1: He submitted himself to Land. He was the daughter of
- 1:37:26Speaker 1: the law, and then when he had an encounter, he
- 1:37:28Speaker 1: did not waste it. There was a time where it
- 1:37:31Speaker 1: was not prayer that saved him. He said, Hey, I'm
- 1:37:33Speaker 1: a pharisee, don't kill me. He had to use the wisdom.
- 1:37:38Speaker 1: He had to use that wisdom. He said, I'm a pharisee.
- 1:37:41Speaker 1: I have a right to be alive. Can I tell
- 1:37:45Speaker 1: you there are many roads that you will need in
- 1:37:47Speaker 1: your journey to destiny.
- 1:37:48Speaker 2: There are times where.
- 1:37:49Speaker 1: You will have to use the advantage of the wisdom.
- 1:37:52Speaker 2: Of the cosmos.
- 1:37:53Speaker 1: He said, do not be afraid. I have many people
- 1:37:55Speaker 1: in that city. That is the basis of your security.
- 1:37:57Speaker 1: There are angels, but as far as by your sustenance
- 1:38:01Speaker 1: in this city find rest. It is the numbers that
- 1:38:06Speaker 1: will become your security. He said in the multitude of
- 1:38:09Speaker 1: men is the King's honor. This is the wisdom of
- 1:38:12Speaker 1: the cosmos. Most believers do not know and appreciate the
- 1:38:16Speaker 1: power of influence. For instance, we reject it as though
- 1:38:20Speaker 1: it is antichrist. It can be antichrist if not managed,
- 1:38:24Speaker 1: and we have it not influenced to our detriment.
- 1:38:30Speaker 2: If God is giving us wisdom, saymen, let's hurry up.
- 1:38:36Speaker 1: Price number four. What is the fourth price for higher dimensions?
- 1:38:44Speaker 1: Greater dimensions? The price of greater contribution slash productivity, the
- 1:38:55Speaker 1: price you want to be great and you want to
- 1:38:59Speaker 1: ex explod virgin dimensions in the spirit and in life
- 1:39:03Speaker 1: and destiny especially, the fourth price is the price of
- 1:39:08Speaker 1: greater contribution, the price of productivity.
- 1:39:12Speaker 2: Proverbs, chapter eighteen and verse sixteen.
- 1:39:15Speaker 1: It says, the gift of a man, or a man's gift,
- 1:39:19Speaker 1: make cat room for him, and bring get him. Someone say,
- 1:39:23Speaker 1: bringet him. The gift does not only make room. It
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: can't transport you from one realm to the other, one
- 1:39:31Speaker 1: realm of possibility to the other. It bringet him before
- 1:39:36Speaker 1: great men. There's no way for him to get to
- 1:39:39Speaker 1: the place of great men. But his gift would bring
- 1:39:43Speaker 1: him before great men, hallelujah. This is very very important.
- 1:39:49Speaker 1: In Daniel chapter five. Let's read verse ten. Let's look
- 1:39:53Speaker 1: at how the Lord exalted Daniel in Daniel chapter five.
- 1:39:58Speaker 1: Now a little background when you read from was one.
- 1:40:00Speaker 2: Don't turn there.
- 1:40:01Speaker 1: Let me just the Bible talks about the son of
- 1:40:04Speaker 1: Nebuchadnezza Belshazzar.
- 1:40:05Speaker 2: Is that true?
- 1:40:06Speaker 1: And the Bible says they had stolen vessels from the
- 1:40:10Speaker 1: house of God, and they were making merry, and you know,
- 1:40:14Speaker 1: giving the credit.
- 1:40:15Speaker 2: To the God of the Babylonians and all of that.
- 1:40:18Speaker 1: Suddenly he hand pierces through they are placed there and
- 1:40:21Speaker 1: rights on the wall mene men Netta kel who fastened
- 1:40:25Speaker 1: and the.
- 1:40:25Speaker 2: King was this topped.
- 1:40:26Speaker 1: The Bible says, he shook, his legs were shaky, and
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: he called on all the astrologers and the sorcerers to
- 1:40:33Speaker 1: come and help interpret, and sadly they could not, and
- 1:40:36Speaker 1: he was downcast.
- 1:40:38Speaker 2: Are we together these.
- 1:40:39Speaker 1: Tand now you will understand it from there, the Bible
- 1:40:42Speaker 1: says the queen his wife, Now by reason of the
- 1:40:45Speaker 1: words of the king and his lords came into the
- 1:40:47Speaker 1: banquet house, and the queen spake and said, O King
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: live forever. Let not thy thought's trouble thee nor thy
- 1:40:56Speaker 1: countenance be changed.
- 1:40:57Speaker 2: Verse six.
- 1:40:58Speaker 1: Next verson he says, there is a man in thy
- 1:41:01Speaker 1: kingdom in whom the spirit of the holy Gods is,
- 1:41:05Speaker 1: And in the days of thy Father's light and understanding
- 1:41:09Speaker 1: and wisdom like the wisdom of the gods was found
- 1:41:14Speaker 1: in him, whom the King never recognized. At thy father
- 1:41:18Speaker 1: said made master over the magicians.
- 1:41:22Speaker 2: Look at the role they gave him. He was master
- 1:41:24Speaker 2: over what and and this is the position he occupied
- 1:41:34Speaker 2: in Egypt verse twelve.
- 1:41:39Speaker 1: For as much as an excellent spirit and knowledge and understanding,
- 1:41:43Speaker 1: interpretain of dreams, and showing of heart sentences, look at
- 1:41:46Speaker 1: solutions dissolving of doubts were found in the same with
- 1:41:52Speaker 1: the same Daniel, The same Daniel that proposed that you
- 1:41:55Speaker 1: will not defy himself with the king's meath, The same
- 1:41:58Speaker 1: Daniel that called upon the Lord strong priesthood what he
- 1:42:02Speaker 1: was Daniel, with this plectorah of abilities and solutions, showing
- 1:42:07Speaker 1: of heart sentences, dissolving of doubts were all found in
- 1:42:11Speaker 1: the same person.
- 1:42:12Speaker 2: He said, let him be called, and he will show
- 1:42:14Speaker 2: the interpretation.
- 1:42:15Speaker 1: Next verse, then was Daniel brought in before the King,
- 1:42:20Speaker 1: and the King spake unto Daniel ad Thou, Daniel art Thou,
- 1:42:25Speaker 1: the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king
- 1:42:29Speaker 1: my father brought out of jury. And fourteen he said, yes,
- 1:42:33Speaker 1: and he said, I have heard of THEE that the
- 1:42:35Speaker 1: spirit of the gods is indeed, and that light and
- 1:42:38Speaker 1: understanding and excellent wisdom is found indeed. Remember this was
- 1:42:43Speaker 1: a hedonistic king testifying over Daniel.
- 1:42:46Speaker 2: Fifteen were reading to seventeen.
- 1:42:49Speaker 1: And now the wise men, the astrologers, have been brought
- 1:42:53Speaker 1: in before me, that they should read the writings and
- 1:42:56Speaker 1: make none onto me the interpretation thereof.
- 1:42:59Speaker 2: But they could not the interpretation of the things.
- 1:43:01Speaker 1: Sixteen It says, I have heard of THEE that thou
- 1:43:05Speaker 1: can'st make interpretations and dissolve doubts. Why was he called
- 1:43:10Speaker 1: into the palace the solution? The extent of the solution
- 1:43:14Speaker 1: he could provide. His level of productivity was so much
- 1:43:18Speaker 1: the king didn't want to bring him, but the wife
- 1:43:20Speaker 1: advised him and said, if it's to solve this your problem,
- 1:43:23Speaker 1: there is only one man. The same thing happened to Joseph.
- 1:43:26Speaker 1: Are you seeing the patterns now?
- 1:43:29Speaker 2: Now?
- 1:43:30Speaker 1: If thou can read the writing and make no one
- 1:43:33Speaker 1: to meet the interpretation.
- 1:43:34Speaker 2: What to be the reward?
- 1:43:36Speaker 1: Thou shalt be clothed with scarlet and have a chain
- 1:43:40Speaker 1: of gold about your neck, and thou shalt be the third.
- 1:43:44Speaker 2: Ruler of the kingdom.
- 1:43:46Speaker 1: Instant promotion, the potential for promotion. But I love Daniel.
- 1:43:50Speaker 1: Daniel answered and said, letter gives it to thyself. A
- 1:43:54Speaker 1: man who is not blessed will not speak like this,
- 1:43:56Speaker 1: he says, and give your rewards to another. Yet, because
- 1:44:00Speaker 1: I know that dominion is a product of solutions, I
- 1:44:04Speaker 1: will read the writings onto the king and make known
- 1:44:07Speaker 1: to him the interpretation.
- 1:44:10Speaker 2: There is confidence that competence brings. There is a level
- 1:44:15Speaker 2: of confidence if you are competent. I can tell you this.
- 1:44:20Speaker 1: There is a level of confidence, not pride, Daniel the Great,
- 1:44:27Speaker 1: look at what the king was willing to offer him.
- 1:44:30Speaker 1: Just for interpreting this, I will make you the third
- 1:44:33Speaker 1: in the kingdom. Now, when you read this, you will
- 1:44:36Speaker 1: see I don't have the time for us to read.
- 1:44:39Speaker 1: But Daniel now told him something that will consider in
- 1:44:42Speaker 1: maybe the next point. He said, listen, your father died
- 1:44:46Speaker 1: because of pride, you too, you are going to die
- 1:44:48Speaker 1: because of pride, the Bible said.
- 1:44:50Speaker 2: That same night, he was slain a way together.
- 1:44:52Speaker 1: Let's read six Verse one, Daniel still Daniel, don't be
- 1:44:57Speaker 1: tired of scripture.
- 1:44:57Speaker 2: It gives us wisdom. It please die.
- 1:45:02Speaker 1: To set over the kingdom and one hundred and twenty princes,
- 1:45:07Speaker 1: which should be over the whole kingdom. Verse two it said,
- 1:45:11Speaker 1: and over these three precedents of whom Daniel was what first?
- 1:45:18Speaker 1: Of whom Daniel was first. So even though he did
- 1:45:21Speaker 1: not collect the gifts of Belshazzar, when Darius became king,
- 1:45:26Speaker 1: he lifted him no wonder when Shadrak, Meyshak and a
- 1:45:30Speaker 1: bet Nevo were suffering, it was mine, not m I
- 1:45:33Speaker 1: hope you know that. Listen, believe us. We must get
- 1:45:38Speaker 1: to a point where we place value on productivity. If
- 1:45:42Speaker 1: we do not place value on productivity, it is going
- 1:45:45Speaker 1: to affect us. It is affecting Africa. It is affecting
- 1:45:49Speaker 1: even the church in Nigeria. The Bible already says we
- 1:45:53Speaker 1: are the lights of the world, We are the assault
- 1:45:55Speaker 1: of the earth. In addition to our priesthood, we must
- 1:45:58Speaker 1: understand the power of superior contributions and productivity.
- 1:46:04Speaker 2: Let me tell you something.
- 1:46:05Speaker 1: Your productivity can bring you to a position in one
- 1:46:08Speaker 1: day where you will salvage the destinies of men and
- 1:46:12Speaker 1: bring honor and glory to the name of the Lord.
- 1:46:14Speaker 2: The nation of Israel were preserved.
- 1:46:17Speaker 1: Because Daniel true value rose to the position where you
- 1:46:21Speaker 1: were second in command and under his watch.
- 1:46:24Speaker 2: God's people who.
- 1:46:24Speaker 1: Were preserved until their roles are not.
- 1:46:27Speaker 2: A pharaoh who knew, not Joseph.
- 1:46:31Speaker 1: Are we together may God forbidding that the time will
- 1:46:34Speaker 1: come in this nation because of lack of productivity. They
- 1:46:38Speaker 1: will shut down and clamp down Christian activities because.
- 1:46:41Speaker 2: Of one policy, and there will be nobody to speak.
- 1:46:44Speaker 1: Can I tell you we can be effective priests, but
- 1:46:48Speaker 1: if our contribution is not superior, to go beyond religion,
- 1:46:52Speaker 1: beyond race, beyond the local environment, we are going to
- 1:46:56Speaker 1: remain small.
- 1:46:57Speaker 2: This is an apostolic message.
- 1:47:02Speaker 1: Nations are built with a combination of priesthood and superior contribution,
- 1:47:08Speaker 1: not priesthood alone. Superior contribution. Hallelujah, so that we do
- 1:47:19Speaker 1: not get to a point where, respectfully speaking, look at
- 1:47:23Speaker 1: what has happened to our nation and many.
- 1:47:27Speaker 2: Nations in Africa.
- 1:47:29Speaker 1: Anything happens, we become the victims of it, whether it
- 1:47:33Speaker 1: is policies, migration, policies, whatever it is. Because The truth
- 1:47:37Speaker 1: is with respect to the global table. Our contribution may
- 1:47:42Speaker 1: be significant within a place, but it's not. People depend
- 1:47:46Speaker 1: on the facts and the figures. The figures don't lie
- 1:47:48Speaker 1: if you contribute seriously as far as the Table of
- 1:47:52Speaker 1: Nations is concerned, there are certain statements.
- 1:47:54Speaker 2: That will not be made to you.
- 1:47:55Speaker 1: Is that true? That is why we pray that there
- 1:48:01Speaker 1: will be men who are on fire for Jesus, filled
- 1:48:05Speaker 1: with the Holy Spirit, but filled with superior wisdom, that
- 1:48:08Speaker 1: God will lift them. Are we together to be captains
- 1:48:11Speaker 1: of industry? That the time will come in this nation
- 1:48:14Speaker 1: it is the church who will determine political leaders, the
- 1:48:17Speaker 1: Church who will determine economic leaders. But it's not just
- 1:48:21Speaker 1: to shout amen. We will keep saying amen and remain
- 1:48:25Speaker 1: low because it would take contribution. Contribution is what legitimizes
- 1:48:30Speaker 1: the door of greatness to open for you, not sentiments.
- 1:48:33Speaker 2: Contribution.
- 1:48:36Speaker 1: How many believers have been given projects, construction projects. They
- 1:48:40Speaker 1: are on fire, but they did a bad job because
- 1:48:43Speaker 1: they will not train themselves and hide under the fact
- 1:48:46Speaker 1: that remember we are believers. I believe in spirituality, but
- 1:48:55Speaker 1: I believe in excellence.
- 1:48:56Speaker 2: That you deliver at a level that defy any that
- 1:49:01Speaker 2: anybody who wants to speak against you.
- 1:49:03Speaker 1: If we had time to read Daniel chapter six, you
- 1:49:06Speaker 1: will see that by reason of he's being exalted as
- 1:49:09Speaker 1: one of the precedents, there were few people who were angry.
- 1:49:13Speaker 1: And the Bible says they came to check him using
- 1:49:16Speaker 1: the basis of incompetence, and they found him upright.
- 1:49:20Speaker 2: There was nothing they could get, so they had to
- 1:49:22Speaker 2: go to the issue of prayer. The goal was to
- 1:49:25Speaker 2: trap Daniel, but he was not only spiritual. He was
- 1:49:28Speaker 2: so exceptional in his duty.
- 1:49:33Speaker 1: Allelujah, value and contribution as a man of God. The
- 1:49:39Speaker 1: pulpit should not only be should not be your only
- 1:49:42Speaker 1: jurisdiction of dominion. If business people gathered you are to
- 1:49:46Speaker 1: speak to them, do you have something to tell them?
- 1:49:48Speaker 1: If diplomats gather together and they say, place just a
- 1:49:51Speaker 1: ten minute charge just to encourage them, do you have
- 1:49:54Speaker 1: what to tell them?
- 1:49:59Speaker 2: Make up your mind to be competent.
- 1:50:01Speaker 1: It's a decision I made with myself, and I have
- 1:50:03Speaker 1: challenged people. And you see, when you make up your
- 1:50:06Speaker 1: mind to be competent, God will send those who need
- 1:50:09Speaker 1: that kind of thing to you. Look at the men
- 1:50:11Speaker 1: of David, those who were distressed, those who are in debt,
- 1:50:15Speaker 1: those who are confused.
- 1:50:16Speaker 2: David turned them into.
- 1:50:17Speaker 1: Mighty men, not just mighty men in terms of the
- 1:50:20Speaker 1: spiritual context.
- 1:50:21Speaker 2: They were warriors with honor.
- 1:50:22Speaker 1: The Bible says one of them stood in the same
- 1:50:25Speaker 1: position and held a knife and brought down eight hundred people.
- 1:50:29Speaker 1: And even when he released the knife, it refused to
- 1:50:32Speaker 1: leave his hand.
- 1:50:32Speaker 2: It will not leave his hand. That is a level
- 1:50:35Speaker 2: of mastery. Cononia, please hear me in the name of Jesus,
- 1:50:38Speaker 2: in the area where God would want you to serve
- 1:50:41Speaker 2: his purposes. Go for knowledge, Go for knowledge.
- 1:50:44Speaker 1: Humble yourself and lend challenge yourself. If you are in
- 1:50:48Speaker 1: the banking sector, be the best, be exceptional. I told
- 1:50:51Speaker 1: you you don't stop till you save kings. You own
- 1:50:57Speaker 1: a restaurant, let it be the best. You are a quality,
- 1:51:00Speaker 1: rise to the highest level that within your time of
- 1:51:03Speaker 1: politics will bring great honor to the name of the Lord.
- 1:51:06Speaker 1: Developmental projects. That it does not have to be whether
- 1:51:09Speaker 1: you're a Christian or Muslim or anything in between. That
- 1:51:12Speaker 1: everybody can see and attests to the fact that this governor,
- 1:51:16Speaker 1: this president, this minister, this board member, own believers can
- 1:51:21Speaker 1: come unanimously and says sincerely. If it is in terms
- 1:51:24Speaker 1: of competence, let's throw away this.
- 1:51:27Speaker 2: This person can deliver.
- 1:51:28Speaker 1: Until we get to that point, we will keep flattering
- 1:51:31Speaker 1: ourselves with religious sentiments and it will not work. Our
- 1:51:38Speaker 1: priesthood will prepare the heavens to favor us. Listen, it
- 1:51:43Speaker 1: is your assignment to be valuable and competent. It is
- 1:51:46Speaker 1: God's assignment to connect you to those who need it,
- 1:51:49Speaker 1: can and reward it.
- 1:51:51Speaker 2: Are we together now? You have to understand how it works.
- 1:51:55Speaker 1: It was Daniel's assignment to be competent. It was God's
- 1:51:59Speaker 1: assignment to connect him to the king through his wife.
- 1:52:02Speaker 1: It was Joseph's assignment to be competent. It was God's
- 1:52:06Speaker 1: assignment to give the dream the spiritual advantage. Will be
- 1:52:12Speaker 1: wasted if you are not prepared. It is often said
- 1:52:15Speaker 1: that favor is when preparation meets opportunity. There are many
- 1:52:21Speaker 1: preachers who love Jesus, but they are not ready to
- 1:52:24Speaker 1: speak to a global audience. They are not ready to
- 1:52:27Speaker 1: speak to intelligent people. They are not ready to communicate
- 1:52:30Speaker 1: the truth of the Kingdom with wisdom and exactitude. Because
- 1:52:33Speaker 1: we have not worked on ourselves. We have prayed, but
- 1:52:36Speaker 1: we have not built ourselves. It takes more than just
- 1:52:39Speaker 1: prayer and Bible study. Let me tell you to be
- 1:52:42Speaker 1: able to build a ministry that flourishes. There are many
- 1:52:45Speaker 1: other components to be able to communicate to people.
- 1:52:48Speaker 2: People are not stupid. They will not just come and
- 1:52:51Speaker 2: listen to nonsense.
- 1:52:52Speaker 1: You must be thoroughly furnished, like a read that has
- 1:52:56Speaker 1: been taken out of fire. So you are speaking, and
- 1:52:58Speaker 1: a CEO is listening to you, a prayer warrior is
- 1:53:01Speaker 1: listening to you.
- 1:53:02Speaker 2: Away together, and even those.
- 1:53:04Speaker 1: Who are not born again as let me tell you
- 1:53:07Speaker 1: this without any sense of pride. There are many many
- 1:53:10Speaker 1: Muslims and unbelievers right now who are connecting and listening
- 1:53:13Speaker 1: to me. They are listening with your heart open because
- 1:53:16Speaker 1: even though they may not believe in Jesus, but there
- 1:53:19Speaker 1: is a dimension of the truths that is life applicable.
- 1:53:22Speaker 1: They can use it for their businesses and comeback with results.
- 1:53:25Speaker 2: At least they are coming close to the gates of
- 1:53:27Speaker 2: the kingdom.
- 1:53:31Speaker 1: Refuse to be incompetent and don't give any excuses for it.
- 1:53:36Speaker 1: They send you to deliver a speech to a board,
- 1:53:39Speaker 1: do your homework, wake up in the night, cross the teas.
- 1:53:43Speaker 2: And dodge the eyes.
- 1:53:44Speaker 1: You are human, but who can be human to an
- 1:53:47Speaker 1: extent that you are almost godlike?
- 1:53:51Speaker 2: Competence is a possibility in the world of men. Let's
- 1:53:55Speaker 2: stop giving flamesy excuses. You are a leader.
- 1:53:58Speaker 1: Nobody will follow you just for sentiments, tribal sentiments, sentiments
- 1:54:04Speaker 1: of regions. You must be competent to deliver. People want
- 1:54:08Speaker 1: to be proud of your leaders. They can stand and say,
- 1:54:10Speaker 1: this is my pastor, this is my man of God.
- 1:54:13Speaker 1: Not bringing rubbish and commanding loyalty. It would not work
- 1:54:16Speaker 1: that way. I love you or that's why I'm pounding
- 1:54:20Speaker 1: on you. W sou reconcile, But for this one, just
- 1:54:23Speaker 1: get it into your spirit.
- 1:54:25Speaker 2: You would thank me for it.
- 1:54:27Speaker 1: Superior dimensions in life and destiny, access to the gears
- 1:54:31Speaker 1: of kings and nations. No, it will not just come
- 1:54:34Speaker 1: by priesthood alone. In addition to priesthood a rich, qualitative
- 1:54:39Speaker 1: spiritual life. There must be substance that you can't deliver.
- 1:54:47Speaker 9: Amen Amen, amen, Amen, Amen, Amen amen Amen.
- 1:54:55Speaker 2: I'm saying amen to what I've told you. That's my son.
- 1:54:59Speaker 9: Ammen amen amen amen amen amen amen amen amen amen
- 1:55:11Speaker 9: amen amen.
- 1:55:12Speaker 2: Amen One more time, Amen.
- 1:55:19Speaker 9: Amen amen amen amen amen, Amen, Amen.
- 1:55:27Speaker 2: A price number five. Were wrapping up the price of
- 1:55:36Speaker 2: strategic connections?
- 1:55:39Speaker 1: What does it take to scale new heights in the
- 1:55:43Speaker 1: spirit and in destiny? Price number five The Price of
- 1:55:47Speaker 1: strategic connections.
- 1:55:50Speaker 2: Ecclesias sist chapter four. Place from verse nine and ten.
- 1:55:54Speaker 1: It says two are better than one. Two are better
- 1:55:58Speaker 1: than one. Why they have a good reward for their
- 1:56:02Speaker 1: label that names Your productivity is multiplied to the degree
- 1:56:06Speaker 1: to which you are connected.
- 1:56:08Speaker 2: Verse ten, it says, for if one fall, the other, one.
- 1:56:12Speaker 1: Will lived up his fellow. But war to him that
- 1:56:15Speaker 1: is alone when he faileth, for he had not and
- 1:56:18Speaker 1: not that to help him. Listen, there are many kinds
- 1:56:21Speaker 1: of connections in your life, but there are strategic connections
- 1:56:25Speaker 1: that define your life.
- 1:56:27Speaker 2: I'm going to give you two of them very quickly.
- 1:56:30Speaker 1: Number one is Nehmayah Chapter two, the first eleven verses.
- 1:56:34Speaker 2: Who will not read everything?
- 1:56:35Speaker 1: The Bible talks about Nehemiah, who was the cop bearer
- 1:56:39Speaker 1: of the king at tars exist that kind of name.
- 1:56:42Speaker 1: I don't know why he didn't give us a shorter name.
- 1:56:44Speaker 1: I will call him the King of Passia, so that
- 1:56:46Speaker 1: I can have my peace to preach away together and
- 1:56:52Speaker 1: it came to pass in the month Nissan, the twenty
- 1:56:55Speaker 1: eth year. Remember our king again, the King of Passia.
- 1:56:59Speaker 1: That wine was found before him, and I took up
- 1:57:02Speaker 1: the wine.
- 1:57:02Speaker 2: I gave it to the king. Now I had not
- 1:57:07Speaker 2: been before time sad in his presence. Nemiah is speaking. Now.
- 1:57:10Speaker 1: He says, when the king saw his countenance, he said, Nemiah, why.
- 1:57:14Speaker 2: Are you sick? And I mean, why are you sorrowful?
- 1:57:16Speaker 2: I know you are not sick. That means Nemiah was
- 1:57:19Speaker 2: a faithful copt beera.
- 1:57:21Speaker 1: Notice the transition from a cop Beerer to the one
- 1:57:24Speaker 1: who will now build.
- 1:57:27Speaker 2: The Jerusalem world. He looked at the king, and the
- 1:57:31Speaker 2: king loved him so much.
- 1:57:33Speaker 1: Verse three does give us the verses I can read
- 1:57:35Speaker 1: or explain whichever. He says, why should my countenance not
- 1:57:39Speaker 1: fall when I am here and the place of my
- 1:57:42Speaker 1: father's sepulchers? In other words, I am here and the
- 1:57:45Speaker 1: Jerusalem world has not been built. Let's go to verse four.
- 1:57:49Speaker 1: The king said, so what is your request? Now, everybody
- 1:57:53Speaker 1: says strategic connections. When you are connected to the king,
- 1:57:57Speaker 1: it's easy for some things to happen.
- 1:57:58Speaker 2: First strategic connections.
- 1:58:03Speaker 1: The king said, so what should I do now, he said,
- 1:58:06Speaker 1: I prayed to the God of heaven.
- 1:58:07Speaker 2: Verse five.
- 1:58:08Speaker 1: The King said, if it or he said, if it
- 1:58:10Speaker 1: please the King, and if your servant has found favor
- 1:58:13Speaker 1: in thy side, send me now to Judah and to
- 1:58:17Speaker 1: the city of my father's Sepulchus, that I may build it.
- 1:58:20Speaker 1: Six And the King said, unto me. The queen was
- 1:58:24Speaker 1: sitting by him, for how long will your journey be?
- 1:58:27Speaker 1: And when will you return? So it pleased the king
- 1:58:30Speaker 1: to send him. What's what the king did? I want
- 1:58:32Speaker 1: to show you the power of strategic connections. Moreover, I said,
- 1:58:36Speaker 1: unto the King, if it pleased the King, let let
- 1:58:39Speaker 1: us be given to me to the governors beyond the river,
- 1:58:42Speaker 1: that they may convey me over that means guarantee my
- 1:58:46Speaker 1: safety and support me.
- 1:58:47Speaker 2: Instead of meeting.
- 1:58:48Speaker 1: All the governors one by one, I met the King,
- 1:58:51Speaker 1: who has influence over them, and I said, King, give
- 1:58:53Speaker 1: me a letter away together verse eight, and a letter
- 1:58:59Speaker 1: on to ass off the keeper of the King's forest,
- 1:59:02Speaker 1: that he may give me timber to make beams for
- 1:59:05Speaker 1: the gates of the palace right and the wall of
- 1:59:09Speaker 1: the city for the house that I may enter into.
- 1:59:12Speaker 1: And the King granted me according to the good hand
- 1:59:16Speaker 1: of God upon me. Verse nine, it says, then I
- 1:59:19Speaker 1: came to the governors beyond the river and gave them
- 1:59:22Speaker 1: the king's letters. Now the king had sent captains of
- 1:59:25Speaker 1: the army and the horsemen with me, says strategic connections.
- 1:59:32Speaker 1: That guy would have died in the forest. He would
- 1:59:34Speaker 1: have died in several places.
- 1:59:36Speaker 2: He knew all the people he would have to meet
- 1:59:39Speaker 2: one by one, and he said, King, you have influence.
- 1:59:42Speaker 1: If I have a relationship with you, all I need
- 1:59:45Speaker 1: is a letter. And look at how the man jumped it.
- 1:59:47Speaker 1: He said, get on my chariots. He sent him with chariots,
- 1:59:51Speaker 1: so every time they saw him, Ah from the King, Yes, sir,
- 1:59:54Speaker 1: please pass. Strategic relationships can shorten the time of your
- 1:59:59Speaker 1: arrival to the next level. There are many of us
- 2:00:03Speaker 1: who are meeting people one by one and meeting gates
- 2:00:07Speaker 1: and systems one by one. We need to pray and say, Lord,
- 2:00:10Speaker 1: in addition to those who have connected with me with
- 2:00:13Speaker 1: bring me to a point where I.
- 2:00:15Speaker 2: Am connected to kings and gatekeepers. In one day.
- 2:00:19Speaker 1: They will open a door for you that may take
- 2:00:21Speaker 1: all the ten years away together. Generally, relationships are profitable
- 2:00:34Speaker 1: but believe me to.
- 2:00:35Speaker 2: Rise to certain levels in life.
- 2:00:38Speaker 1: There are certain strategic connections that will be needed in
- 2:00:42Speaker 1: your life. They will redefine everything about your life. Second King,
- 2:00:46Speaker 1: Chapter five. Let's read from verse one.
- 2:00:48Speaker 2: The Bible talks about a man called Naman of the Host,
- 2:00:53Speaker 2: the king of Syria. He said he was a great
- 2:00:56Speaker 2: man with his master.
- 2:00:58Speaker 1: He was honorable because by him deliverance had come to Syria.
- 2:01:03Speaker 1: The Bible says he was a mighty man, but he
- 2:01:05Speaker 1: was lepros. Let's go to verse two. The Syrians came
- 2:01:09Speaker 1: and they captured Israel, and then a little girl was
- 2:01:12Speaker 1: captured also, who waited onny Man's wife.
- 2:01:15Speaker 2: Verse three.
- 2:01:16Speaker 1: Now I want to show you something there, she said
- 2:01:18Speaker 1: onto her mistress, would God, my lord where with the
- 2:01:21Speaker 1: prophets in Samaria?
- 2:01:22Speaker 2: For he would recover you. Are we together?
- 2:01:25Speaker 1: Four?
- 2:01:26Speaker 2: So he went in and told the lord, toss and toss.
- 2:01:30Speaker 2: This is what has happened. Let's go to verse five.
- 2:01:33Speaker 2: The king of Syria said, go you see the letter again?
- 2:01:38Speaker 2: Is it in your bible? Now this is a story.
- 2:01:41Speaker 1: The little girl is saying, my lord, or my master
- 2:01:44Speaker 1: or my boss, there is a prophect, a mighty prophet.
- 2:01:50Speaker 2: If you go to that prophect in Israel. He can
- 2:01:55Speaker 2: cure you of this.
- 2:01:56Speaker 1: But I don't think you have the kind of influence
- 2:01:59Speaker 1: to meet that prophet, because he's a great prophet. And
- 2:02:02Speaker 1: immediately Naman would have gone and said, I'm a captain
- 2:02:05Speaker 1: of the army. He would have been surprised. You see
- 2:02:08Speaker 1: the way Elija treated him. It even come out Elisa
- 2:02:11Speaker 1: was not a small man. The prophets or then the kings.
- 2:02:16Speaker 1: So these guys were. They had their own pride and
- 2:02:18Speaker 1: pedigree to Unfortunately, are we together now? What's what he
- 2:02:24Speaker 1: did to save him? The body of negotiations and all
- 2:02:28Speaker 1: of this. This is the wisdom of the cosmos that
- 2:02:30Speaker 1: believers must learn. The King of Celia said, go, I
- 2:02:35Speaker 1: will send a letter on to the King of Israel.
- 2:02:38Speaker 1: And he departed, and.
- 2:02:40Speaker 2: He took him all of those gifts. Verse six.
- 2:02:44Speaker 1: He brought the letter to the King of Israel, saying, now,
- 2:02:47Speaker 1: when this letter has come to you, behold, I have
- 2:02:50Speaker 1: herewith sent N'aman, my servant, to d that Daumayers recovered
- 2:02:54Speaker 1: him of his leprosy.
- 2:02:55Speaker 2: The remaining is history down to verse eleven.
- 2:02:58Speaker 1: Look at how easy it became for the king to
- 2:03:00Speaker 1: be healed for no man to be healed because he
- 2:03:02Speaker 1: had the endorsement of a great man's relationship.
- 2:03:06Speaker 2: He went to the king, and when the king was.
- 2:03:09Speaker 1: Downcast, the news reached Elijha quickly, and elija said, don't worry.
- 2:03:13Speaker 1: Send him to me and he will know. There is
- 2:03:14Speaker 1: a prophet in Israel. To cut the long story shot,
- 2:03:17Speaker 1: the man was healed. Could it be that many things
- 2:03:23Speaker 1: that look had in your life now is because the
- 2:03:25Speaker 1: relationship that has the power and the influence and the
- 2:03:29Speaker 1: capacity to accelerate it has not come. The price for
- 2:03:35Speaker 1: greater dimensions is the price of strategic connections. Strategic connections,
- 2:03:43Speaker 1: let me tell you the truth. It is a good
- 2:03:46Speaker 1: thing for God to give you influence and access to
- 2:03:49Speaker 1: the hearts of kings because it will accelerate your journey
- 2:03:54Speaker 1: economically and otherwise. There are people who are heavily defer
- 2:04:00Speaker 1: and blessed. There are people who are heavily protected and
- 2:04:05Speaker 1: supported because.
- 2:04:06Speaker 2: There are kings, There are captains who love them.
- 2:04:09Speaker 1: There are men of God in this nation, men of
- 2:04:12Speaker 1: God in Africa. Who is not just the poor pits
- 2:04:14Speaker 1: that is protecting them. God in Heaven is there to
- 2:04:17Speaker 1: defend them. But they are They have the jealousy and
- 2:04:20Speaker 1: the loyalty of kings across the globe.
- 2:04:24Speaker 2: Nations will close and open again for their sake? Are
- 2:04:29Speaker 2: we learning?
- 2:04:31Speaker 1: Let me give us the last one, so we pray
- 2:04:36Speaker 1: I missed out on the story of the Shunamite woman.
- 2:04:38Speaker 1: There's no time for that would have spoken about the
- 2:04:40Speaker 1: Shunamite woman, the same Elisha who came to her and said,
- 2:04:43Speaker 1: what should I do for you? Notice the woman when
- 2:04:47Speaker 1: she saw Elisha in Second King, chapter four. You'll find
- 2:04:50Speaker 1: out from verse eight to seventeen. When she saw Elisha,
- 2:04:53Speaker 1: she discerned that this was a great man of God.
- 2:04:56Speaker 1: Immediately she started preparing.
- 2:04:58Speaker 2: Something to honor him. Actually came after a while and said,
- 2:05:01Speaker 2: you've been helping me. What should I do?
- 2:05:03Speaker 1: Should I speak to the King for you? He had
- 2:05:05Speaker 1: that authority King help this woman, and that would have
- 2:05:08Speaker 1: been it. Listen, not everybody is limited. This is a
- 2:05:15Speaker 1: very very sincere statement. Challenges are not general. They are limited.
- 2:05:20Speaker 1: As much as people are suffering. There are people who
- 2:05:23Speaker 1: with the same letter that letter principle is still walking
- 2:05:26Speaker 1: till today in Nigeria and across the globe.
- 2:05:29Speaker 2: There are people who may be.
- 2:05:31Speaker 1: Ordinary people, but they will carry letters from superior voices
- 2:05:34Speaker 1: with authorities.
- 2:05:36Speaker 2: And can take and say, listen, I just cave you.
- 2:05:39Speaker 2: Who are you? I came with a letter from who? Okay,
- 2:05:43Speaker 2: where do you know him?
- 2:05:45Speaker 1: He happens to be my uncle, or it happens to
- 2:05:47Speaker 1: be someone God brought to my life.
- 2:05:48Speaker 2: Are you sure?
- 2:05:49Speaker 1: Let me see help this person place, give him all
- 2:05:52Speaker 1: the support needed.
- 2:05:53Speaker 2: Sign will talk later. That's the end of it.
- 2:05:58Speaker 1: So what are you looking for. I've applied this as
- 2:06:01Speaker 1: ten times. That's not worth Okay, come back tomorrow, drop
- 2:06:04Speaker 1: your passport.
- 2:06:05Speaker 2: Go. That's the end of it.
- 2:06:07Speaker 1: Or okay, there's a job given there, but I don't
- 2:06:10Speaker 1: have a scholarship for the master's program.
- 2:06:13Speaker 2: But it's too late. We've closed the door. Well, social
- 2:06:16Speaker 2: persons said I should give you. Please help him. Will
- 2:06:20Speaker 2: talk about your wife's issue tomorrow.
- 2:06:25Speaker 1: Everybody, including the king, has this area of need. The
- 2:06:30Speaker 1: person who can solve the king's problem, and we together
- 2:06:34Speaker 1: can get the king's favor too, for himself and for orders.
- 2:06:39Speaker 2: Kings have problems.
- 2:06:41Speaker 1: They can solve the problems of others, but there are
- 2:06:43Speaker 1: others who can solve their problems.
- 2:06:45Speaker 2: You need both in your life.
- 2:06:47Speaker 1: The kings who can solve your problems and access to
- 2:06:50Speaker 1: the ones who solved.
- 2:06:51Speaker 2: The problem of kings the last one.
- 2:06:56Speaker 1: And we pray, did someone get blessed in church today?
- 2:07:00Speaker 1: So that by the time you're sharing the grace is
- 2:07:03Speaker 1: a wiser version of you that now leaves you know
- 2:07:05Speaker 1: what to look for.
- 2:07:06Speaker 2: You know what to pray for.
- 2:07:08Speaker 1: Your prayer life now is on fire, your world, life,
- 2:07:11Speaker 1: your passion for God. But you can see the missing links. Ah,
- 2:07:14Speaker 1: this is why my life has clammed down in one place.
- 2:07:20Speaker 1: Are you ready for number whats now?
- 2:07:22Speaker 2: Number six? The price of humility?
- 2:07:26Speaker 1: This is the last price you want to rise to
- 2:07:29Speaker 1: a higher level, The price of humility. James four, verse six.
- 2:07:36Speaker 1: James four, verse six. Pay attention as we wrap up.
- 2:07:39Speaker 2: But he giveth more grace.
- 2:07:41Speaker 1: Wherefore he said, God resisted the proud. Is that in
- 2:07:46Speaker 1: your bible, but give it grace to the humble.
- 2:07:50Speaker 2: Please give us write for reference. We may not read it,
- 2:07:55Speaker 2: but just write.
- 2:07:56Speaker 1: Daniel Chapter five, from verse eighteen to thirty one. This
- 2:08:01Speaker 1: was Daniel speaking to Belshezza about Nebocadnezza and his pride.
- 2:08:06Speaker 1: He said, your father felt because of pride, he exalted
- 2:08:10Speaker 1: himself more than the king of heaven, and he fell
- 2:08:13Speaker 1: and you now his son. You are following the same
- 2:08:15Speaker 1: step what happened to your father, who happened to you,
- 2:08:18Speaker 1: and he died and Darius took over. In James, chapter
- 2:08:22Speaker 1: four and verse ten, the Bible tells us powerfully the
- 2:08:27Speaker 1: blessedness of humility James four ten. Humble yourselves in the
- 2:08:34Speaker 1: sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
- 2:08:38Speaker 1: This is a principle that I've learned for my own life,
- 2:08:42Speaker 1: a lanted by the privilege of relationship with the fathers
- 2:08:46Speaker 1: of faith in this nation, not just in terms of
- 2:08:49Speaker 1: the spiritual dimensions, even in several areas. You know great people,
- 2:08:54Speaker 1: largely by the extent of pride and humility. They are
- 2:08:59Speaker 1: truly very humble people.
- 2:09:01Speaker 2: They will learn and learn again and learn from anybody.
- 2:09:06Speaker 1: You can see somebody you study some of these intellectuals abroad.
- 2:09:10Speaker 1: You can see somebody who is a professor for excellence
- 2:09:13Speaker 1: listening to a little child talking to him. And if
- 2:09:15Speaker 1: we're saying, professor this and that, you are wrong, and
- 2:09:17Speaker 1: you say, oh, really not, I'm wrong.
- 2:09:21Speaker 2: You meet me at the class.
- 2:09:22Speaker 1: Now you'll tell him I'm wrong. And this is somebody
- 2:09:25Speaker 1: who is a learned fellow, and you will listen and
- 2:09:28Speaker 1: learn the same thing you see with very prosperous people.
- 2:09:32Speaker 1: And I pray that this will become a culture in
- 2:09:34Speaker 1: our hearts, that as we rise, we will remain ever humble.
- 2:09:39Speaker 2: God, You are the reason for all that I am.
- 2:09:42Speaker 2: You are the reason for all that I have. Even
- 2:09:45Speaker 2: though the nations praise.
- 2:09:46Speaker 1: You your workings in my life, I acknowledge before you
- 2:09:51Speaker 1: and before them, that I'm not in before you, and
- 2:09:53Speaker 1: God will measure.
- 2:09:54Speaker 2: A thousand cubits for you. You are ready to go higher.
- 2:09:59Speaker 2: Pride is a my precious people. Pride destroys, and.
- 2:10:03Speaker 1: As we prepare to pray, I want us to start
- 2:10:06Speaker 1: with this prayer over pride. There are some of us
- 2:10:09Speaker 1: who pride has brought us to positions of shame and reproach.
- 2:10:14Speaker 1: Right now, we are shadows of ourselves because we became
- 2:10:18Speaker 1: full of ourselves to acknowledge the God of Heaven as
- 2:10:22Speaker 1: the basis for all that you are, and all that
- 2:10:25Speaker 1: you have is true humility. Are we together to remain
- 2:10:30Speaker 1: ever humble before Him? It is my prayer for myself,
- 2:10:33Speaker 1: It is my prayer for this great ministry. It is
- 2:10:36Speaker 1: my prayer for the Body of Christ. It is my
- 2:10:38Speaker 1: prayer for you and everybody who I truly love and
- 2:10:41Speaker 1: careful that humility will be signature in your life. That
- 2:10:45Speaker 1: when people look at you and say why are you humble?
- 2:10:47Speaker 1: When everything is working in your life left right and
- 2:10:50Speaker 1: center you have seen the faithfulness of girl, you will
- 2:10:53Speaker 1: tell them that it's not just something I do mechanically.
- 2:10:55Speaker 2: It is a revelation. It sustains the key to my
- 2:10:58Speaker 2: next level.
- 2:11:01Speaker 1: Pride is a demoter, it will demote you regardless the position.
- 2:11:06Speaker 1: Humility is a promoter, it will lift you beyond this level.
- 2:11:11Speaker 1: I've handed to you tonight, ladies and gentlemen, people of God, six.
- 2:11:15Speaker 2: Keys that if you work in keeping with these.
- 2:11:19Speaker 1: Keys, I give you a guarantee by the integrity of Scripture,
- 2:11:23Speaker 1: you will watch your life move from one level to
- 2:11:25Speaker 1: the other, first in your spiritual triumph, and then your
- 2:11:28Speaker 1: destiny adventure, and then every.
- 2:11:31Speaker 2: Aspect of your life.
- 2:11:32Speaker 1: These are the keys that the great have traded with,
- 2:11:35Speaker 1: that have brought them to where they are and continues
- 2:11:38Speaker 1: to take them to levels. Virgin dimensions in the spirit,
- 2:11:43Speaker 1: virgin dimensions in destiny.
- 2:11:46Speaker 2: Now, thanks be to God.
- 2:11:47Speaker 1: The Bible says, which causes us always to triumph.
- 2:11:51Speaker 2: Let me wrap up again with Prophabs Chapter four. It says,
- 2:11:54Speaker 2: the path of the just is.
- 2:11:56Speaker 1: As a shining light that shine it more and more
- 2:12:02Speaker 1: onto the perfect day. Please rise upon your feet, Please
- 2:12:15Speaker 1: rise upon your feet. We're going to pray prayer point
- 2:12:26Speaker 1: number one, just two prayer points for tonight. Prayer point
- 2:12:28Speaker 1: number one. You are going to ask the God of
- 2:12:31Speaker 1: Heaven that this that was listed, these six keys that
- 2:12:37Speaker 1: represent the price for new and superior dimensions, that the
- 2:12:42Speaker 1: grace be given to you from Heaven to work in
- 2:12:45Speaker 1: keeping with every one of these.
- 2:12:46Speaker 2: Go ahead and lift your voice on pray. The Bible says,
- 2:12:49Speaker 2: now that ye know these things, happy are you if
- 2:12:53Speaker 2: you do them? Is someone praying?
- 2:12:56Speaker 1: I obtain grace in the name of Jesus Christ. I
- 2:13:00Speaker 1: obtain grace by the power of the Holy Spirit. I
- 2:13:04Speaker 1: obtain grace in the name of Jesus Christ. The price
- 2:13:09Speaker 1: of a deeper experience with God, the price of on
- 2:13:14Speaker 1: bending focus, the price of greater enlightenment, the price of
- 2:13:21Speaker 1: greater contribution and productivity, the price of strategic connections, and finally,
- 2:13:31Speaker 1: the price of humility. Go ahead and pray, Father, I
- 2:13:36Speaker 1: obtain grace. I am set for the new dimension in
- 2:13:40Speaker 1: the name of Jesus Christ. I am set for a
- 2:13:43Speaker 1: new level in my faith adventure, a new level in
- 2:13:47Speaker 1: my destiny, a new level in the spirit.
- 2:13:56Speaker 2: Final prayer point.
- 2:13:58Speaker 1: In the name of Jesus, I decree and declare, by
- 2:14:03Speaker 1: the power of the Holy Spirit, acceleration to my destiny
- 2:14:07Speaker 1: even for the next level. Go ahead and pray spiritual acceleration,
- 2:14:12Speaker 1: financial acceleration.
- 2:14:15Speaker 2: In the name of Jesus Lord, bring.
- 2:14:17Speaker 1: Me speedily, satisfy me early, even with your messy greater
- 2:14:21Speaker 1: levels of power, greater levels of illumination, greater levels in ministry,
- 2:14:27Speaker 1: greater levels in.
- 2:14:28Speaker 2: Every area of my life. I will excel in my priesthood.
- 2:14:35Speaker 1: I will excel as fast dominion is concerned, wisdom to
- 2:14:40Speaker 1: operate in the cosmos, in the name of Jesus Christ.
- 2:14:55Speaker 1: In the name of Jesus Christ. Before I speak over
- 2:14:58Speaker 1: your life to wrap up tonight's meeting, let me make
- 2:15:00Speaker 1: an auto call. One of the greatest index to measure
- 2:15:04Speaker 1: the success of any man of God and any ministry
- 2:15:08Speaker 1: is the souls that come directly through your.
- 2:15:11Speaker 2: Preaching to Jesus Christ.
- 2:15:14Speaker 1: Soul winning, in order of priority, second only to your
- 2:15:18Speaker 1: work with God, is the greatest index for measuring ministerial success.
- 2:15:23Speaker 1: No matter what you have and do, if souls do
- 2:15:26Speaker 1: not come to Jesus, even if it is one soul
- 2:15:29Speaker 1: on account of the truths that you communicate, then you
- 2:15:31Speaker 1: have not done justice. Let's minimize movement. I want to
- 2:15:35Speaker 1: make an aut call. There are people here from the start.
- 2:15:40Speaker 1: When I gave the first key and the first price,
- 2:15:43Speaker 1: the price of a deeper work with God, the Holy
- 2:15:45Speaker 1: Spirit convicted you immediately.
- 2:15:48Speaker 2: This is you he's talking about. I sent you to
- 2:15:50Speaker 2: church tonight for this reason and to hear this.
- 2:15:54Speaker 1: You're saying, Apostle, I truly need to make my way
- 2:15:57Speaker 1: right with Jesus Christ.
- 2:15:59Speaker 2: Perhaps you have never truly been saved.
- 2:16:01Speaker 1: You came here by invitation, or you have been here
- 2:16:04Speaker 1: watching orders saved, and it has not really dawn on
- 2:16:07Speaker 1: you that you should make that decision.
- 2:16:09Speaker 2: Tonight is your chance. And then, for those who are saying, Apostle.
- 2:16:13Speaker 1: I want to rededicate my life, I cannot truly say
