Commanding Salvation Over Territories with Apostle Joshua Selman (Koinonia Global 23__ 01__ 2022) · Selah Media House

Praise. Bless Him for His Word.
0:04
The Bible declares that the entrance of His Word gives light
0:08
and even understanding onto the simple.
0:12
Are you blessing Him tonight? Father, we thank you.
0:18
We bless you because you are a good God.
0:24
You are a great God. You are a marvelous God, bless
0:32
him. Sheba lakosa brande kaparosia
0:35
attachea harandos khedebras Khadiba hasheda Khede
0:40
Palakotosia. We bless you.
0:50
Ask him for an encounter and a visitation tonight.
0:57
Lord, appear unto me tonight by your word.
1:02
Are you praying? Heba shala kataprande gabarato
1:07
Sega de belgata, by your word change my life by your word.
1:15
Heal every infirmity by your word.
1:28
In the name of Jesus Christ, in the name of Jesus Christ.
1:34
Now I like to charge you before we sit that you'll be very
1:42
intentional about the presence of God and I want you to.
1:52
Believe. That Jesus is in this place.
1:55
This is we're not acting. This is not some movie that
2:00
we're acting. We are before the King of Kings,
2:06
the Lord of Lords, the one who is able to change lives, the one
2:12
who is able to turn an age long situation overnight.
2:18
It is important. That you are aware.
2:22
That you're not just standing before one who founded a
2:25
religion called Christianity. No, no, no.
2:31
That the testimonies that you hear are only tokens.
2:35
They, they are a sign to what God wants to do in your life.
2:40
And the Bible says, blessed is she that believes miracles are
2:45
not magic. They are two different things,
2:48
two different things A miracle is proof that there is a God in
2:56
heaven. A miracle is proof that that God
2:59
is alive. A miracle is proof that that God
3:03
is mighty. A miracle is proof that God
3:07
loves. Are we together?
3:10
So I like your heart. I know that week in, week out we
3:14
gather from several places, several nations.
3:18
People make sacrifices from several nations literally every
3:23
week. And it is important that we're
3:26
intentional about these gatherings so we do not waste
3:29
our time. As for me, I have assured you
3:35
again and again that there is no time you will gather here and
3:38
share the grace going back. Disappointed.
3:40
No, no, Hallelujah. And so I like to charge your
3:47
heart because sometimes believers can be careless with
3:51
the presence of God. The Bible showed us that a man,
3:55
Jacob, in chapter 28, was very careless and nonchalant with an
4:01
encounter that would change him. And as a result of that
4:04
carelessness, he paid the price for 20 years.
4:08
The next scene in his life will be pain in the House of Lavan.
4:12
By the time God who appeared to him again in chapter 32 of
4:16
Genesis, he was stronger, more discerning and more intentional.
4:20
He held on to him and said, I will not let you go.
4:23
I made that mistake once. I know what it cost me.
4:29
Hallelujah. So don't just celebrate what God
4:33
is doing in the life of others, as wonderful as that is.
4:37
Don't just celebrate what God is doing in the house, as wonderful
4:40
as that is. You must have the determination
4:43
that Elijah had to receive from Elijah.
4:46
He would not be distracted. We are going this way, said no
4:51
problem, I will still go. The prophet said, are you aware?
4:54
Said don't distract me until it got to a point where he said if
4:59
you can see me. Was he not looking already?
5:02
Listen, there is something about the power and the grace of God
5:06
in the midst of His people. You have to realize that people
5:09
come to church for several reasons.
5:12
There are others who come as spectators.
5:14
There are others who are sent by God to that meeting because
5:18
something about the destinies connected to them needs to be
5:22
unveiled. There are others who are sent
5:24
because they are God's. They are God's final sign of
5:29
mercy over their families that if they missed that opportunity.
5:37
So it is very important that we do not become careless.
5:42
Believers have tonsures, and sadly, I know that we've had all
5:45
kinds of experiences. I can assure you, Koinonia is
5:49
not a place of show. No, we're too serious with God
5:53
for that kind of thing. The price of every destiny is
5:58
the blood of Jesus. We cannot afford to toy and play
6:02
games with God's people. People have come with burdens.
6:09
People have come with pain. People have come with troubles.
6:13
Others have come with passion and desire to be directed, to be
6:18
mentored. There are others who have come
6:26
to take this fire. Some of you are in ministry and
6:29
this thing is not working and you know there is a way.
6:32
Some of you, this meeting came to you in dreams that God sent
6:36
you and said come, this is the answer to the things you've been
6:40
asking for. You cannot imagine the prayer
6:46
investments, the word investments, the spiritual
6:50
discipline that goes in for one service.
7:00
I'm under the shadow of your wings.
7:05
Your influence is all over me. I am under the shadow of your
7:14
wings. Your influence is all over me.
7:22
I am under the shadow of your wings.
7:57
Victorious, I have overcome, I am victorious I have overcome.
8:16
Say I am victorious. I have overcome.
8:46
Hallelujah, the Lord is revealing.
8:51
I'm seeing four people in my vision and the Lord is saying
8:54
the primary reason these people came, one of them is a prophet
8:58
in the making. There is something God is doing
9:01
with that gentleman. There is there is a mighty
9:04
assignment, but he's in a season of training and preparation.
9:08
This is what I'm. Saying.
9:10
This is a man given to fasting and prayer and.
9:14
Part of the reason why God has brought him here is for that
9:17
equipping. I don't know where these people
9:19
are, but I pray in the name of Jesus that the grace that can
9:24
draw men to the secret place, the grace that can build an
9:28
equipment to become to become men of stature and power.
9:32
May that grace rest upon you in the mighty and marvelous name of
9:36
Jesus. And then I'm hearing in my
9:42
spirit discernment and this grace is coming on many women.
9:46
This is what I'm. Saying discernment, there is a
9:49
manifestation of the spirit of discernment.
9:53
I don't know why what I'm following the instruction God is
9:56
giving me that when when women are rising with a strange
10:00
dimension of the spirit of discernment, the ability to be
10:05
able to see the things that God is saying to understand the
10:09
writings of the world. I stretch my hand.
10:11
Let it be by the spirit of grace.
10:14
Let it be superior dimensions of the sun.
10:18
The eyes that see and the ears are here.
10:31
Go ahead and pray the Spirit in one minute.
10:41
Play Bharat dus kadila Katusiata Shabaka Tabaka.
10:52
Pray, please pray something is happening in this place.
11:10
We are in the days of His power, the days of His Grace.
11:15
Shinaka Paranteka Paratusiata, are you praying in the spirit?
11:30
Let your spirit man be open for a genuine encounter.
11:38
Shikamala subrangi gabaratus I. There is no key just like.
13:14
Gods must buy before you, and God will now and time must pay.
13:28
Gods will born, kingdoms will live, but we remain strong
13:38
because we know our God. Hallelujah, before we sit.
14:16
I just sense a very strong, strong healing anointing.
14:22
I just sense that the Holy Spirit is healing people and I'm
14:27
seeing someone being healed of peptic ulcer.
14:31
This thing has disturbed you. This is medically confirmed what
14:34
I'm seeing. The power of God touch that
14:36
person right now, bringing you life even by the Spirit.
14:42
Life even by the Spirit. Life, even by the Spirit.
14:57
Let the healing river of Jesus flow to every sick body.
15:02
Right now, every medical condition, there are people
15:06
following in hospitals in the name of Jesus, the Son of the
15:10
living God, that same Spirit that raised Christ from the
15:15
dead, in the name that is above all names.
15:19
Let that spirit quicken your mortal body, quicken your mortal
15:24
body, quicken your mortal body, quicken your mortal body.
15:45
And that pain you are having around your ears.
15:48
I don't know who that is, your right ear, but the power of God
15:52
is touching you right now supernaturally There is there is
15:59
someone with the issue of blood is a very severe issue right
16:02
now. The power of God is touching you
16:04
this moment in the name of Jesus, in the name of Jesus.
16:19
This is Koinonia, the House of God and the place of encounters.
16:36
I command that spirit to leave you.
16:37
Now I'm seeing, I'm seeing something that looks like a
16:40
bird. Just go out of someone in the
16:44
name of Jesus. By the power that raised Christ
16:47
from the dead. I arrest that spirit.
16:52
Let that Lady go now. Release her destiny now.
16:59
By the power that raised Christ from the dead.
17:04
Hallelujah, you have one of you to read.
17:17
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, you have one.
17:25
Eat all for me. Dad could not hold you down.
17:37
You are the reason, King. Sing it one more time.
17:58
Hallelujah. In the name of Jesus Christ, may
18:28
tonight be for you a night of encounters.
18:32
In the name of Jesus, especially for those of you who have taken
18:36
the burden and the sacrifice to travel from far.
18:39
You will never go back the way you came.
18:43
In the name of Jesus Christ, God bless you.
18:46
Good evening and please be seated.
18:49
Please be seated. Please be seated encouragement
18:58
very quickly and then we'll get to the word #1 We thank God for
19:05
the marvelous testimonies and the things that God is doing in
19:09
our midst week in, week out. Let me encourage everyone that
19:15
we are a house and a people who are very intentional about
19:21
hearing what God has done and is doing in our lives.
19:25
We're not careless about the walkings of God in our lives at
19:29
all. And I want to encourage you,
19:32
many, many people have received testimonies and continue to
19:36
receive testimonies as a result of the impact of the world.
19:41
May I encourage you to do well to register your testimonies
19:46
with the media department or the PR, any one of them, and would
19:51
give you an opportunity to share your testimony, especially for
19:55
those who are within our local environment, for all those who
20:01
are far and beyond our reach here.
20:04
You can do well to use our social media platforms or the
20:07
lines and register your testimony would do well to share
20:13
them as you allow us. But it is important for us to be
20:17
conscious about the things that God is doing in our midst.
20:22
Hallelujah. The name of the Lord and then
20:26
the second charge very quickly is that we are a spiritual
20:33
people who are also a people of responsibility.
20:37
And may I encourage you, everyone of you realize that you
20:42
are not only an ambassador of the Kingdom, you are an
20:46
ambassador of this ministry. Do well to see to it that in and
20:51
through your life, several people who are not saved, just
20:55
help those under the anointing. Several people who need the
20:59
touch and the power of God over their lives.
21:03
Make sure that you give them an opportunity to come and
21:07
encounter Jesus in gathering for us as a ministry is beyond just
21:15
looking for crowd or more people.
21:18
God has already honoured us beyond that, that realm of
21:23
carnality. It is a passion to see that as
21:28
many people who need to be saved, transformed and
21:32
delivered. Most of you here you are here
21:35
tonight because someone went out of his way to reach out to you.
21:40
And please you, you need to do that.
21:43
As a responsibility. Hallelujah.
21:46
OK, I see that there's a link for
21:48
testimonieskeepittheirmediakoinoniaabuja@gmail.com. You can use this for to register
21:55
your testimonies koinoniaabuja@gmail.com.
22:00
Praise the name of the Lord. You can have it.
22:02
You can furnish others with the e-mail address so that they can
22:07
make use of it. Hallelujah.
22:09
Let's hear what God is doing around the world and when you
22:13
send it, do let us know if you do want us to share it and what
22:20
part of the testimony you want us to share.
22:23
Of course we have intelligent people who know how to preserve
22:27
certain details if it's an information that is classified
22:32
or can have implications beyond the environment where it is
22:38
hurt. So we I want to assure you that
22:41
our people are trained, they're intelligent people and we know
22:44
what it is that is worth sharing, but overall is just to
22:47
be able to help us glorify Jesus.
22:51
And then I was talking about in gathering.
22:54
There are many people who have never you cannot credit the
23:00
salvation, the transformation, the healing and the deliverance
23:03
of anyone to your your participatory contribution with
23:08
the Holy Spirit. You have never spoken to anyone.
23:11
He says, I was glad when they said unto me, the people who
23:15
deserve the credit are those who said unto him, let us go.
23:18
He didn't just come. Someone said unto him, let us go
23:22
to the House of the Lord. Hallelujah.
23:25
So. Please make it a duty.
23:28
To be very intentional about in gathering and as much as
23:34
possible, listen to me. The church is not a place where
23:37
we continue to recycle membership from one place to the
23:40
other. It is important that our focus
23:44
in in gathering be those who need salvation.
23:49
We need people who are unsaved, unreached, so that they can also
23:53
begin their journey into the Kingdom experience.
23:56
Then of course, all others follow those in need for
23:59
transformation, healing, deliverance, and all of that.
24:03
But my passion and my desire is that God will continue to act
24:08
daily like the Bible says, as many as should be saved.
24:13
If you're in agreement, say Amen, praise the name of the
24:17
Lord. I just felt stirred in my heart
24:20
again to encourage those of us who are in ministry here
24:23
following. I know that there are so many
24:25
people who connect with the meetings.
24:27
You are a pastor. You are in the fivefold.
24:29
Let me encourage you that we must continually obtain grace
24:34
from the Lord to see to it that all the people.
24:38
Who? He commits to our grace are well
24:42
fed. Acts chapter 20 please give us
24:46
Acts 2028 Acts chapter 20 I believe 28 it says.
24:51
Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock
24:59
over which the Holy Ghost has made you overseers.
25:03
It says to feed the Church of God which he had purchased, not
25:07
with your blood, with his blood. So he's given a charge here to
25:12
ministers. Take heed, be sensitive and be
25:16
intentional. I tell you, there is nothing
25:19
that pains my heart like sin believers who are ill fed,
25:24
poorly fed, confused from one, no spiritual direction, no
25:30
accuracy in understanding doctrine.
25:33
This is the assignment of the fivefold.
25:36
So this is a charge with all my love and honor to ministers of
25:40
the gospel. We must be very intentional
25:45
about seeing that every time believers are gathered, whether
25:49
it is online, whether it is a local gathering like this,
25:52
provided you have access to the ears, the.
25:55
Hearts and the spirits of God's God's people.
25:58
You must be intentional about communicating truth.
26:03
You see, God looks at the hearts of men and the passions of men
26:08
to trust them with members. God will not just trust.
26:12
People with membership when he knows that there is laziness,
26:16
carelessness on seriousness as far as communicating the world.
26:20
The primary assignment of a man of God as far as the maturity of
26:25
the Saints is concerned is found in Jeremiah 3 and verse 15
26:30
popular Scripture. I will give you shepherds or
26:33
pastors according to my heart. It says they shall feed you with
26:39
knowledge, understanding. Don't feed them with knowledge
26:43
alone. Preaching is feeding with
26:46
knowledge. Teaching is feeding with
26:48
understanding. Preaching declares the truth
26:53
that is consistent with Scripture.
26:56
Teaching explains the dynamics of the workings of the Word of
27:01
God. Are we together?
27:03
Preaching brings knowledge, Teaching brings understanding.
27:07
You need both. You have to feed them with
27:10
knowledge what to do and understanding how to do it.
27:17
And it is my prayer that made this house remain befell the
27:21
place of bread that never will. There come a time where you will
27:24
come and sit down and there will not be fresh manna from.
27:28
Heaven, that makes for your spiritual edification.
27:32
Hallelujah. Blessed be the name of the Lord.
27:46
I'm teaching a message. It is a two-part series.
27:50
We'll start and then stop wherever we stop and then we'll
27:53
continue after the miracle service.
27:54
By the way, let me just announce that next week will be our first
28:01
miracle service for the month of 20, the month of January 2022.
28:07
Please do well to invite as many and let's trust God for an
28:12
incredible time of experiencing His power and His grace in Jesus
28:17
name. But God has declared over us
28:19
that this is our year of marvelous light.
28:22
It is not a cliche. It is not just a careless
28:26
prophetic word that has come upon us.
28:29
Our teachings all through this year will be in line with this
28:32
theme and I trust that God will open us up to very deep
28:37
dimensions of Kingdom truths in Jesus name, Amen and Amen.
28:48
The gospel is divided essentially into two dimensions.
28:55
The gospel is divided into two parts.
28:59
Number one is the message that saves.
29:03
That is the first dimension of the gospel, the message that
29:07
saves. What is the message that saves?
29:10
The revelation of the love of the Father revealed in and
29:18
through the substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus his Son.
29:22
Are we together, man and creation being the object of
29:26
that love and that sacrifice? So the Gospel.
29:31
As we know it, the message of the gospel is God's, God's plan.
29:38
To reach out to man and salvage him from the power of sin, the
29:42
power of Satan. And that happened through the
29:45
substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus, That is his death, his
29:51
burial, his resurrection and his ascension.
29:56
This is the basis for the believer salvation.
29:59
Are we together? You have to understand the
30:02
basis. This is doctrine.
30:03
Now we are not saved anyhow. I once asked someone who is
30:08
Jesus and he said is my elder brother.
30:11
I said well prepare to go to hell, fire Hallelujah.
30:15
Now it's not a lie that Jesus is his elder brother.
30:19
But let me tell you this. It is not believing Jesus as
30:22
your elder brother. I know where they get that
30:23
revelation because the Bible calls him the first born among
30:27
we the begotten. And sometimes we have to be
30:29
careful with revelations. We have to know the level and
30:33
the spiritual state of the believers who hear certain
30:36
things. When a matured believer hears
30:38
something like he's your elder brother, he understands what
30:41
this is. But if you tell a new believer
30:44
he's your elder brother already, you have sown a seed that may
30:47
send that person to hell. Believe in Jesus as your elder
30:51
brother is not what saves you. In fact, believing in him as
30:55
your brother is not what saves you.
30:58
Believing Jesus as the founder of a religion is not what saves
31:02
you. Believing Jesus as a good man is
31:05
not what saves you. There is an exact information
31:09
about Jesus that saves. You must believe in his
31:15
incarnation. The Bible says that He was the
31:18
word that became flesh. You must believe that.
31:22
You must believe that he walked upon the earth, lived a sinless
31:25
life. You must believe that he died.
31:31
You must believe that he was buried, descended to Hades, the
31:34
place of the dead. You must believe that he
31:36
resurrected on the third day, not after one week.
31:39
The Bible says he resurrected on the third day.
31:42
If you believe Jesus rose again, it matters that you know when he
31:46
rose again. There is a reason why he rose
31:49
again on the third day and you must believe that he did not
31:52
just resurrected and was just roaming around the streets in
31:55
Jerusalem that he went His ascension has an implication
32:00
because it was at his ascension that his high priestly duty was
32:04
performed in a Tabernacle in heaven.
32:06
Based on the revelation given to Paul in the book of Hebrews.
32:10
It was after he ascended because he did not resurrect with blood.
32:14
He now had another life. His blood was already what he.
32:18
Carried. As the Lamb and as the high
32:20
priest, and he offered it, the Bible says, upon the heavenly
32:23
Tabernacle, once and for all. Are we together now?
32:28
It's very important. So the Gospel has two sides.
32:34
Number one is the message that saves the administration of
32:41
that. The power that comes from that
32:43
message is personal. That means I cannot believe for
32:47
you to be saved. No, you have to believe
32:49
yourself. Are we together now?
32:51
Yes, if I have the healing anointing.
32:55
You don't need to have the healing anointing to be healed.
32:58
You just need to believe. In Jesus and believe in me the
33:02
vessel and you'll be healed. But salvation, new birth is not
33:06
like that. You will have to hear the
33:08
message and. Personally acknowledge the
33:11
Lordship of Christ. There is no such thing as being
33:14
saved for someone else. You can intercede for someone
33:18
else's salvation. Yes, you can preach the gospel,
33:22
but everyone who is saved must come to a point where you
33:27
personally understand the gospel.
33:30
The. Message of the gospel and then
33:33
your faith in Jesus as touching that information you have heard
33:37
is what leads to your receiving eternal life.
33:41
Are we together? But there is a second side to
33:45
the gospel, the gospel as an ideology, the gospel as an
33:52
ideology that transforms society, that transforms
33:57
territories. This is very simple, but very
34:01
powerful. For a very long time.
34:06
Believers, especially among respectfully speaking among the
34:10
evangelicals, we have been thoroughly taught the side of
34:14
the gospel that presents the message of salvation, but most
34:20
believers have not been taught the gospel as an ideology that
34:24
transforms society. And you know that God's desire
34:29
for the believer is not only to be saved, but that you are
34:33
saved. Then transformed.
34:35
Remember our teaching? Salvation, Transformation was
34:39
the third. Oh no, come on, one more time.
34:43
Salvation, transformation, empowerment.
34:48
So that the greatest need of the unbeliever is salvation.
34:52
Remember, the greatest need of the believer is transformation.
34:57
The greatest need of the transformed believer is
35:01
empowerment and the greatest need of an empowered believer
35:07
character See humility. Humility is very important
35:12
because that's what guarantees continuity.
35:15
Are we together? So the ideology that transforms
35:19
is very powerful because that it is from the ideology of the
35:25
gospel that Christ is enthroned across.
35:29
A territory Can I tell you this? Please look up.
35:33
I'm, I'm trying to introduce my message.
35:34
You can always know, listen carefully, you can always know
35:39
which of these two sides of the gospel has been received by
35:43
looking at individuals within a territory and looking at the
35:47
territory itself. When you find a territory that
35:52
seems to experience advancement, whether technologically,
35:56
educationally, and otherwise, it means the value system of the
36:00
Kingdom has been adopted. Even though they may not
36:04
acknowledge that those principles come from God, but
36:08
that if you ever see anything that looks like heaven on earth,
36:11
it is because something about heaven was honored there.
36:15
Remember the the mandate is thy Kingdom come.
36:18
Is that true? So we have different regions
36:21
across the globe that may not acknowledge Jesus, but they have
36:26
taken the principles or the value system of the Kingdom and
36:31
they have replicated it across their territories.
36:34
You find out that the individuals are going to hell,
36:37
but the territory clearly looks like heaven.
36:42
Are we learning now? Then you can also find a
36:46
territory where you do not see anything that necessarily looks
36:51
like heaven within that territory, but you can see
36:55
individuals who are saved and sincerely love Jesus, but those
37:00
individuals remain victims. Why?
37:03
Because the territory is yet to be saved.
37:06
So both the believer and the territory need salvation.
37:12
Are you getting the point? Now?
37:14
It is not only men that should be saved.
37:16
Territories can be born again too.
37:19
And when a territory is born again, the same thing that
37:22
happens to an individual happens to that territory.
37:28
Is that true? Yes.
37:33
Individuals come backslide. Territories come backslide.
37:37
Individuals can be transformed. Territories can be transformed,
37:41
but the focus and the emphasis for a long time has been on the
37:46
personal salvation of individuals and that is
37:48
important but should not be the only focus.
37:53
Respectfully speaking, we continue to have several
37:58
churches and ministries and platforms all across the globe,
38:04
all across Africa and particularly within our region.
38:09
But you need to be able to assess the degree to which we
38:14
are effective by looking at the individuals, then looking at the
38:19
territories. What value system governs our
38:22
territory? Are we together now?
38:26
When you have a territory with a serious level of decadence,
38:31
crime rates and all of that, and yet that territory has so many
38:36
believers, something about the understanding of the gospel
38:41
holistically is missing. And can I tell you this, You can
38:46
be saved and not be safe, SAVED, saved, but then you are not
38:56
safe, SAFE. You need both of them.
39:00
You need to be saved and safe. I have always been passionate
39:09
about seeing that the reality of the gospel and the power of God
39:15
that it is able to transform our territories so that our
39:20
territories can call upon the name of the Lord.
39:23
Not just individuals and history.
39:26
History has taught us that it is possible for both individuals
39:31
and territories to come under the Lordship of Christ.
39:35
Did you know that most of the technological advancements we
39:38
celebrate today in Europe and in the developed nations, most of
39:43
that that technological renaissance happened at a
39:48
similar, at a close period with the advancement of the gospel.
39:52
As they received the gospel, it gave way for several other
39:55
things, including our regions too.
40:03
So I know that God has helped us, the average believer who has
40:08
been a serious churchgoer. Even if not, even if not a
40:12
serious believer, at least if you are frequent in church, you
40:16
should not be. You should not be at a loss as
40:19
to the fact that preachers continue to communicate the need
40:24
for personal salvation. You've seen altar calls after
40:28
every service, not just yet in Kononia, generally most
40:32
churches. But the challenge remains that
40:37
we must be trained to understand how to save nations.
40:44
Jesus taught the disciples how to be saved and how to save
40:49
nations. We have only taught how to save
40:52
people. We have not taught how to save
40:55
territories. And so this two-part series is
40:59
an attempt, a very generous and honest attempt to show us the
41:04
ways of God and to guide us into understanding how to transform
41:11
and bring territories under the Lordship of Christ.
41:16
Notice that in in communicating Jesus was speaking in Acts
41:24
chapter 1 and verse 8. He says you shall receive power
41:27
after that the Holy Ghost has come upon you and he said you
41:30
shall be witnesses unto me. He connects their witness to
41:35
territories. He didn't say you just walk
41:38
around or meet anyone. He said no, no, no.
41:40
I'm interested in the territory. I'm interested in Jerusalem, I'm
41:45
interested in Judea, I'm interested in Samaria.
41:49
I'm interested in the utmost part of the earth.
41:54
If you're learning already, say Amen, Hallelujah.
41:58
So I'm teaching on a two-part series that I titled Commanding
42:03
Salvation Over Territories. Commanding Salvation over
42:09
Territories. Commanding salvation over
42:14
territories. We're going to be learning the
42:17
scriptural principles that can bring territories to experience
42:23
the power and the grace of God to come under the lordship of
42:27
Christ experientially. Hallelujah.
42:33
And Part 1, let me give you the course content.
42:36
Part 1, Tonight we're going to be discussing the Witness of
42:41
Mighty Walks. Part 1, the witness of Mighty
42:48
Walks Mark chapter 6 and verse 2, the witness of Mighty Walks
42:56
commanding salvation over territories.
43:03
And tonight, we're going to be looking at the witness of mighty
43:06
walks. And when the Sabbath a record of
43:10
the consequence of what followed the apostles after the healing
43:14
of the man at gate beautiful. So follow the story carefully
43:19
and as they speak unto the people the priest and the
43:23
captain of the temple and the Sadducees came unto them long
43:27
reading. Let's hurry up media being
43:29
grieved that they taught the people and preached through
43:32
Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
43:34
So understand the basis now that someone was angry because of
43:38
something. What was he angry about that
43:40
they were teaching the people Jesus right.
43:44
Verse 3 And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold to
43:49
the next day, for it was now eventide.
43:52
How be it many of them which heard the word believed.
43:56
Take notes now so many people believed.
44:00
And the number of the men was about 5000.
44:05
My goodness, look at this kind of harvest. 5000 + 5.
44:11
And it came to pass on the moral that their rulers, their elders
44:16
and scribes, and Anas, the high priest, and Saiafas and John
44:21
Alexander, and as many as were of a kindred of the high priest,
44:27
were gathered together where? At Jerusalem.
44:30
So we know that something was beginning to happen, not just to
44:34
individuals, but something was happening to the territory.
44:38
Are you following me now? And when they had set them in
44:42
the midst, they asked by what power this was their concern.
44:49
By what power or by what name have you done this?
44:56
They questioned the basis for this level of results even over
45:00
the territory. Verse 8.
45:04
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers
45:09
of the people and elders of Israel, if we this day be
45:14
examined of the good deed done by done to the important man, by
45:19
what means he's made whole. Be it known unto you all, and to
45:25
the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus of Nazareth,
45:30
whom he crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by
45:35
him, that this man stands here before you, hold. 11 This is the
45:42
stone which was set at naughty of you builders, which has
45:46
become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in
45:50
any other, for there is none other name under heaven given
45:55
among men, whereby we must be saved.
46:00
Now when they saw the boldness of Peter pay attention, and John
46:05
and perceive that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they
46:09
marvelled. Why?
46:11
And they took knowledge of them that they had been with Jesus,
46:15
14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them,
46:22
they could say nothing against them, the witness of mighty
46:28
walks. But when they had commanded them
46:31
to go aside out of the Council, they conferred among themselves,
46:38
saying, What shall we do to this man?
46:41
For that indeed a notable miracle had been done by them is
46:47
manifest to all them that dwell in.
46:53
Read the remaining sentence, and we cannot deny it.
46:57
One more time it says, What shall be done unto this man?
47:01
For indeed a notable miracle had been done by them, and they did
47:06
not just stop there. It is manifest to the entire
47:10
territory of Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.
47:15
Next verse. But that it spread no further
47:20
among the people. Let us strictly threaten them
47:24
that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.
47:27
What was their fear? We can't do anything about the
47:30
personal salvation of this man, but let's find a way of stopping
47:34
it from reaching the territory. Are you getting this discussion
47:38
now? There's nothing we can do about
47:40
the man. We can't say lie at this.
47:42
This is too notable. However, what we can do is to
47:47
try to stop it from spreading that they no more speak in that
47:52
name. 18 We're almost there. And they called them and
47:57
commanded them not to speak at all, not teach in the name of
48:02
Jesus. Notice.
48:03
Please go back to 18. He never said they stopped them
48:07
from preaching. He never said they stopped them
48:11
from doing ministry. Keep doing whatever you are
48:14
doing, but can you take this name out of that message?
48:21
They were not banned from doing ministry.
48:24
They were banned from doing ministry.
48:25
The way that works 19 For Peter and John answered and said unto
48:33
them, Whether it be right in the side of God to hacken unto you
48:37
more than unto God, Georgie. For we cannot but speak the
48:46
things which we have seen. Or heard the last verse 21.
48:51
So when they had further threatened them, they let them
48:55
go, finding nothing. How they might punish them
48:59
because of the people for all. Men, how many men?
49:07
All men glorified God, not just for that which was said, for
49:11
that which was done, the witness of mighty works.
49:16
Please look at me. The Bible is very clear as to
49:23
the fact that God desires to see believers excel in their
49:30
personal spiritual lives as as an expression of the Excellency
49:37
of the power and the workings of the Spirit within us.
49:40
But much more than that, God desires for us to excel because
49:46
the results that are produced in and from our lives have a
49:52
territorial implication as far as Kingdom advance is concerned.
49:58
Are we together now that the result that comes from my life
50:02
and your life has an implication, the territory?
50:07
It has an implication over the territories that we are
50:10
domiciled in. And this is a very important
50:13
information in Matthew chapter. Matthew chapter 5 from verse 13,
50:21
Jesus. Now when you read from verse one
50:23
and two and then jump to 13, the Bible says that he looked at the
50:27
people. Start from 1:00 and 2:00 and
50:29
then we jump to 13 seeing the multitudes.
50:32
The Bible says he went up into a mountain and when he was set,
50:36
his disciples came unto him. The Bible says he opened his
50:40
mouth verse 2 and taught them saying He said many things but
50:44
let's go to 13. This is part of what he said.
50:47
Ye. Are the salt of the earth, he
50:50
said. But if the salt have lost his
50:53
several, where we shall it be salted?
50:58
It is henceforth good for nothing but to be cast out and
51:02
to be trodden on the foot of men.
51:04
Ye are the light, everybody say light.
51:08
Ye are the light of the world, he says.
51:10
You are a city that is set on a hill that cannot be hidden. 15
51:16
Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but
51:22
on a Candlestick, and it giveth light to how many?
51:26
Look at the territorial implication.
51:29
The candle does not give light to only one person.
51:34
The candle was lit so that it will light everybody who is in
51:39
the house. Are you learning something now?
51:43
Jesus is teaching us that our salvation is not just personal,
51:48
there is a territorial component to our salvation and that this
51:53
light should not just give illumination to one person, but
51:59
it must give light to all who are in the house.
52:03
Verse 16 it says, Let your light so shine before men, that they
52:10
may see your good works and. Glorify your Father, which is in
52:16
heaven. This is.
52:20
Very, very, very powerful. That means when God wants to
52:28
bring salvation to territories, the first thing He does is to
52:34
bring salvation to individuals. Listen carefully.
52:38
And when He brings salvation to those individuals, He now uses
52:44
those individuals to become a symbol of salvation to the
52:48
territories. And that one of the ways that He
52:52
compels territories to be saved is through the witness of mighty
52:57
walks that comes from those who have experienced that salvation
53:01
that the mighty walks of the Saints can cause a territory,
53:07
can compel a territory to come under the lordship of Christ.
53:12
Someone say results. Please shout it again.
53:15
Say results. This is a world where you are
53:21
not the only one preaching. The Bible tells us that results
53:25
have a voice, that there is a sermon that results can give,
53:31
and that the territory is the audience of that sermon.
53:37
When the Holy Spirit speaks to you as an individual, when a
53:40
preacher speaks to you as an individual, that edifies you
53:45
personally, you give your life to Jesus Christ.
53:48
But that when it has to do with your territory, sometimes it is
53:52
not your voice that should be the preacher because the
53:55
territory may not hear your voice.
53:57
There is a kind of language of evangelism the territory has
54:01
been trained to hear and the Bible calls it mighty walks.
54:05
That mighty walks are also evangelists within a territory.
54:09
There is something, there is a sermon that results can speak
54:14
over a territory. Mighty walks are also preachers,
54:21
Results are also messengers. Their assignment is to convert
54:29
the territory the same way the individual has been converted.
54:34
So the same way we frown at the law or the poor committal and
54:41
passion to personal evangelism, we must also frown when
54:47
territories are not saved. Listen to me.
54:51
I don't know about you, but let me talk about myself.
54:54
If in one week nobody gets saved through my life, I will go for a
54:59
retreat. One week, 7 days, no one comes
55:05
to Jesus, no one hears about him.
55:07
I will go for a retreat. I'm sure that it may be.
55:11
It may be so for many of us here.
55:13
Are we together? But how come our territories
55:19
seem to be bankrupt of evangelism?
55:22
There is a kind of evangelism that Abuja is waiting for.
55:26
There is a kind of evangelism Nigeria is waiting for.
55:30
There is a kind of evangelism. And listen, we have been saying
55:34
many things to the territory and the territory saying I don't
55:36
understand what you are saying, speak my language.
55:39
God is teaching us the sermon that converts territories.
55:43
It is called Mighty works. Are we together?
55:49
That in Acts chapter. 4. Just one miracle of an important
55:55
man. It was so notable.
55:58
The man was standing. Everybody had seen him,
56:02
everybody knew him. Nobody was told to evangelize
56:06
and spread that news. It was too notable to be
56:10
quieted. And they went round and before
56:13
you, you think the the the council just gathered because
56:17
they didn't have what to do. It is impossible for those in
56:20
power to ignore what everybody is talking about.
56:26
Are we together now? The power of personal results
56:39
that it is from the results that we produce the mighty walks that
56:44
are wrought in and through our hands by God, that we compel
56:49
territories to acknowledge that there is a God in heaven and
56:54
then to submit to the lordship and the authority of that God.
56:58
Now why do families, why do individuals?
57:04
I wrote here, why do nations experience perpetual defeat,
57:10
perpetual failure, perpetual hardship?
57:14
It's a question why do we have individuals believe us
57:20
inclusive? Why do we have families?
57:25
Why do we have territories under perpetual defeat, perpetual
57:33
failure, and perpetual hardship? Let me give us 2 scriptures and
57:41
then I'll begin to give you some of the reasons.
57:44
And we pray, is God helping us already?
57:46
So far, Proverbs chapter 13 and verse 15, Proverbs 13 and 15, it
57:54
says good understanding, give a favor, but the way of the
57:59
transgressor is hard. You know where transgressor is.
58:05
A transgressor is a violator of an ordinance, A defaulter,
58:11
consistent defaulter. In Genesis chapter 19.
58:20
Let's start from verse one, but the verse of emphasis is verse
58:22
11. Genesis 19 one, Media, help us
58:28
please look at what you're doing.
58:29
Genesis 19 one. And there came two angels.
58:32
Watch this now. There came two angels.
58:36
This was the event at Sodom and Gomorrah.
58:38
There came two angels to Sodom at evening.
58:42
Remember those irresponsible people there and Lord sat at the
58:45
gate of Sodom and Lord seeing them arose to meet them.
58:50
And he bowed himself with his face towards the ground, quick
58:54
reading. And he said, Behold now my Lord
58:57
turning, I pray you into your servants house, and tarry all
59:01
night, and wash your feet, and all of that next verse.
59:04
Verse 3 And he pressed upon them greatly, and they turned him on
59:09
to him and entered into his house.
59:11
And he made them a feast and did bake unleavened bread, and they
59:15
did eat. Verse 4 But before they laid
59:19
down the men of the So you see now every time the Bible talks
59:24
about a city, pay attention. There was a man in that city who
59:28
knew the God of heaven, but the city itself?
59:32
Was a place of decadence and evil.
59:35
Are we together now? His.
59:37
This scripture shows us the consequence of having personal
59:41
salvation. And yet your territory does not
59:44
acknowledge your God. You are still not safe.
59:47
This was a man who was in fellowship with God.
59:50
He had discernment to see angels, but because his
59:53
territory was not safe, you are about to see the consequence of
59:57
a territory that has not come under the lordship of Christ.
1:00:00
Are you ready? Before he laid down the men of
1:00:04
the city, even the men of Sodom, come pass around the house, both
1:00:12
old and young. What foolish generation?
1:00:15
The old. And when old and young people
1:00:17
are doing the same foolishness, it means that territory is in
1:00:20
trouble. Do you agree with me?
1:00:23
If he just said, the young men will understand.
1:00:26
But both old and young, all the people came from where every
1:00:32
quarter to the House of the one man who had a relationship with
1:00:37
the God of. Heaven, verse 5.
1:00:40
And they called on to Lot and said, where are the men which
1:00:46
came in on to thee this night? Listen to their request, not a
1:00:50
prayer request. Listen to their request.
1:00:52
Bring them on to us that we may know them.
1:00:57
Are you seeing what happens to a territory?
1:01:00
This man, This man has encountered the God of heaven,
1:01:04
but the territory was not saved. And even though they knew they
1:01:08
were angels, when Lord saw the angels, what did He do?
1:01:11
He greeted them and invited them.
1:01:14
When these people saw the angels, what did they say?
1:01:18
And they called Lord and said, OK verse 6 very quickly.
1:01:22
And Lord went out at the door onto them and shut the door
1:01:28
after them. Can you see that if your
1:01:31
territory is not saved, even though you are saved, you will
1:01:34
not find peace? You see there?
1:01:38
Verse eight. OK, verse 77 and said, I pray
1:01:45
you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
1:01:49
We're reading to 11. Verse 8.
1:01:51
Behold, now look how dear I have two daughters which have not
1:01:57
known man. Let me, I pray you, bring them
1:02:00
unto you, and do ye unto them as is good in your eyes only unto
1:02:06
this man do nothing, for therefore came they under the
1:02:10
shadow of my roof. Listen to what the man said.
1:02:15
Verse 9. And they said, Stand back.
1:02:19
And they said again, This one fellow came into sojourn, and he
1:02:25
will need to be a judge. Now will we deal worse with thee
1:02:30
than with them? And the press saw upon the man
1:02:33
even lot, and came near. To do what?
1:02:41
For as long as you are within a territory that does not call
1:02:45
upon the name of the Lord, no matter how saved you are, no
1:02:49
matter how all right you are, you are really not all right.
1:02:54
You don't have to look for trouble.
1:02:56
Those who are not saved will come and look for your trouble.
1:03:01
Hallelujah. Verse 10 But the men put for
1:03:07
their hand and pull Lot into the house, the angels now, and shut
1:03:13
the door. Verse 11.
1:03:15
Watch what happened and they smote the men that were at the
1:03:19
door of the house with what blindness?
1:03:22
Both great, both small and great, so that they wearied
1:03:27
themselves at the door. I'm explaining something to you
1:03:31
here. The reason why the angels, the
1:03:35
men could make advancement to open that door was because their
1:03:40
eyes were open when the angels wanted to make their life hard.
1:03:44
What did the angels do? That means when the devil wants
1:03:49
to make anybody's life hard, he does not need to do anything to
1:03:53
your hands. He does not need to do anything
1:03:56
necessarily to your your, your physical environment.
1:04:02
Blindness is associated with hardship.
1:04:05
The Bible says even though they were standing at the door
1:04:10
because they had blindness, they wearied themselves to find the
1:04:14
door, the door to victory, the door to peace, the door to
1:04:19
advancement. They wearied themselves because
1:04:23
of blindness. Why do people and families and
1:04:28
nations experience lives of defeat, failure and hardship?
1:04:36
I want to give you a few reasons.
1:04:37
Four of them. Are you ready?
1:04:40
Number one, please pay attention.
1:04:42
This is now a feast of light. The first reason why individuals
1:04:51
especially are not able to command the kind of results that
1:04:57
will evangelize to a territory is over dependence on the
1:05:02
strength of the flesh #1 please write it down.
1:05:05
The first biblical reason why individuals and even families
1:05:11
don't seem to be able to command the kind of result that will
1:05:15
bring territories to a standstill for the name and the
1:05:19
glory of Jesus is because we live in times where there is an
1:05:23
over dependence on the strength of the flesh, over dependence on
1:05:32
the strength of the flesh, over dependence on our abilities,
1:05:38
over dependence on our connections, over dependence on
1:05:42
our education, over dependence on technology.
1:05:46
You go to regions where Jesus seems to be a nuisance because
1:05:50
they feel once you are educated, once you are technologically
1:05:54
advanced, once you have connections to this and that you
1:05:58
do not need him again. Proverbs chapter 3 and verse
1:06:01
five. Trust in the Lord with all your
1:06:04
heart. Write it down please and do not
1:06:07
lean not on your own understanding.
1:06:10
Verse 6 says in all your ways acknowledge Him.
1:06:15
We have acknowledged our brains, we have acknowledged IT, we have
1:06:21
acknowledged relationships, but we are yet to acknowledge God.
1:06:26
There are nations that pride themselves and say we are the
1:06:29
leaders in technological advancement.
1:06:32
There are nations that pride themselves and say we are the
1:06:34
leaders in manufacturing, in intellect, in this and that.
1:06:39
But God is looking for nations that can say we are the nation
1:06:43
that as a corporate people. We have acknowledged the
1:06:46
Lordship of Jesus Christ unashamedly over dependence on
1:06:52
the strength of the flesh. First Samuel chapter 2 and verse
1:06:58
nine. First Samuel chapter 2 and verse
1:07:03
9. He says he will keep the feet of
1:07:10
his sins, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness.
1:07:15
For by strength shall no man prevail.
1:07:24
Listen, we live in a world today where people pride themselves
1:07:31
with a sense of invincibility. It looks like the more you seem
1:07:36
to not need any assistance, especially from a standpoint of
1:07:41
faith. They look at you as one who is
1:07:43
intelligent. You are sound.
1:07:45
You know what you are doing. Can I be honest with you?
1:07:48
Any nation that rejects the assistance of the God of heaven
1:07:52
is a nation that will eventually plunge to decadence.
1:07:59
Are we together over dependence on our intellect, our
1:08:08
connections, our education, our businesses, our.
1:08:12
Wisdom and so on and so forth. Now these things are not wrong,
1:08:16
don't get me wrong. God give them to us.
1:08:19
But God give them to us in a way and a manner that we must be
1:08:25
able to exalt Him at both these things.
1:08:28
That is the only way it profits us.
1:08:31
There are people today whose strength is in business.
1:08:35
There are people today whose strength is in human
1:08:37
connections. And every time you are talking
1:08:40
about God, the Holy Spirit, the place of wisdom, divine
1:08:43
direction, they look at you as some weak failure who is just
1:08:47
broke and does and wants to console himself using
1:08:50
Christianity. Can I tell you this
1:08:56
respectfully, Church of the Lord Jesus Christ?
1:08:59
God is calling us back to genuine spirituality.
1:09:02
We are beginning to lean on the philosophies of men.
1:09:06
Now I'm not saying these things are wrong, but Church, make sure
1:09:11
we do not replace the shoulder of priests with a cut in
1:09:15
carrying the presence of God. There are things only God can
1:09:19
do. There are things only the
1:09:21
presence of God can do, a laptop and an I, an iPad and a phone or
1:09:28
whatever. They can help to digitalize my
1:09:31
study, but they cannot impart the Holy Ghost to me.
1:09:34
So do not idolize them. Thank God for the convenience.
1:09:38
But if you want God, you need more than a laptop.
1:09:41
You need a functional relationship with the God of
1:09:44
heaven. Are we together the pride of
1:09:53
man? I pray that in our lifetime that
1:09:57
God will grant us grace, that these things, this
1:10:00
acknowledgement of the glory of God, happens in our lifetime so
1:10:03
that the pride of man will not reach the heavens and make us
1:10:07
see these things we've been reading in the Bible.
1:10:09
Read your Bible. And see what happened to men
1:10:12
when their pride got to the heavens.
1:10:14
Usually there will be a visitation upon that land that
1:10:18
brings the people back. Is it Nebuchadnezzar?
1:10:21
Is it Herod in the Bible read? Men and women who.
1:10:24
Believe that they were invincible over dependence over
1:10:37
dependence. Preachers, let's be careful.
1:10:40
Listen, please don't. Don't find offense in what I'm
1:10:43
saying. You are a man of God.
1:10:44
Thank God for LED's. Thank God for Mikes.
1:10:48
Thank God for everything. Thank God for excellence.
1:10:52
ACS. None of them can bring the
1:10:54
presence of God to your congregation.
1:10:56
You need functional fire that comes from the secret place.
1:11:00
Those things. Only help to provide
1:11:02
convenience, no matter how expensive your clothes are, no
1:11:06
matter how intelligent your speaking is.
1:11:08
Believe me, icing is only useful when there is a cake.
1:11:12
When there is nothing, you don't eat icing like that.
1:11:18
Are we learning now? I'm saying this because there
1:11:20
are many younger ministers who are already learning some of
1:11:24
these philosophies. No place of fire, God calls you.
1:11:28
The first thing you're looking for is a laptop and a Bible with
1:11:31
several versions. Congratulations.
1:11:33
Let me tell you how God makes men.
1:11:35
There is something called The Cave of Adullam.
1:11:38
There is there is a place of training that no amount of
1:11:42
convenience and technology can replace.
1:11:56
Are we together? Over dependence.
1:12:03
I have this, I have that ministry must work for me.
1:12:07
I just came in from so so, so places.
1:12:09
I have this and that. In fact, there is one technology
1:12:11
is the latest one. Gentleman, let me tell you this,
1:12:14
by the privilege of God's grace, this man stand.
1:12:17
I don't claim to know everything, but I can tell you
1:12:20
I've worked with God a bit. I truly know what commands
1:12:23
power. Many of the things we think
1:12:27
bring power is not what brings power.
1:12:32
Technology does not fast. Technology does not pray.
1:12:36
Technology can help you hear a message.
1:12:39
But ladies and gentlemen, whether you hear Bible on tape,
1:12:42
you hear Bible on whatever, until you pray, until you build
1:12:47
your spirit man and have a track record with God, Don't
1:12:55
misunderstand me. Remember .1 over dependence.
1:13:02
Are we together? The moment something goes wrong,
1:13:07
the first thing most believers think about is which of my
1:13:11
certificates can solve this problem?
1:13:13
Which connection I know is a simple thing.
1:13:15
I can manage it. Small pain there.
1:13:19
I know. I'm just waiting.
1:13:20
My my brother is a doctor somewhere.
1:13:21
Can I tell you the truth? The days that we are in now are
1:13:25
days of high level spirituality where This is why you can see
1:13:31
you can see what happens. Our medical people here will
1:13:33
tell you. You can find someone not taking.
1:13:36
In What is the reason everything that should make for pregnancy
1:13:41
is there and yet it does not happen?
1:13:44
Demons are telling you that it is advancement.
1:13:46
We've tasted this long ago over dependence on the strength of
1:13:54
the flesh. Submit your prayer request for
1:13:57
prayer. I know my uncle just became
1:13:59
chairman of one board somewhere and God is watching you and
1:14:02
saying, except the Lord builds the house.
1:14:05
They label in vain that build it.
1:14:08
Except the Lord watches over the city.
1:14:11
The Watchmen watch it, but in vain.
1:14:17
Thank God for posters. Thank God for billboards.
1:14:21
Thank God for all of these things.
1:14:23
But none of them has the power in themselves to draw
1:14:27
intelligent people to God's presence.
1:14:29
It takes that Anacazo, the compelling power of the Spirit,
1:14:33
to cause men to leave their homes, to come and sit in your
1:14:37
ministry. Who do you think you are, human?
1:14:40
Beings are not stupid, John Wesley said.
1:14:44
Set yourself on fire and the whole world will come and watch
1:14:47
you born. Can I tell you, I know there is
1:14:55
E everything, but there is no E fire.
1:15:01
If it is fire, it must be right there, you must set it and the
1:15:07
impact must be felt there over dependence.
1:15:12
Can I tell you we are people who value knowledge.
1:15:16
We are people who value all of the provisions that our times
1:15:20
have made for us. But when I go before God, I
1:15:22
don't go and say, Lord, we have this.
1:15:24
We have There is something about the power of God and and and
1:15:33
dependence. Dependence.
1:15:40
A mic can amplify your voice, but it cannot impact the
1:15:44
anointing. Philosophies, volumes and
1:16:00
volumes of intellectual dissertations that do not have
1:16:04
the power to transform. You will finish talking
1:16:07
intelligently and raise an altar call and half of the
1:16:11
congregation is full of sinners, and not one person will come
1:16:14
out. Someone just throws out out of
1:16:16
pity. I made-up my mind that I would
1:16:26
never stand on any pulpit and just just talk stories.
1:16:31
And sometimes, you know, if someone is going and people can
1:16:35
even be distracted, somebody's gisting and saying instead of
1:16:38
listening to this guy wasting our time, let's at least be
1:16:41
discussing the. Let's use the opportunity and
1:16:43
quickly discuss the business. On Monday, go and read your
1:16:46
Bible and see what happened. In the past, when preachers were
1:16:50
preaching, there were people who were.
1:16:53
Passing, they were not part of the people there.
1:16:55
The now God will hook them up like it and keep them there.
1:17:05
Preachers, let's return back to the place of dependence.
1:17:10
Thank God for all of these things.
1:17:12
No man can build any ministry, not by any formula.
1:17:16
Thank God for principles here and there.
1:17:18
I do not negate them. Principles of excellence,
1:17:21
principles of this. But let me tell you, presence
1:17:24
supersedes principles. Principles only work when
1:17:28
presence is in place. Para.
1:17:32
Katuske de balacatya parun desh caliberatusiata over dependence
1:17:39
on the strength of the flesh, giving credits to men, giving
1:17:44
credit to the flesh. That is the reason why when God
1:17:53
wants to make such statement, He leaves ordinary people like us
1:17:56
and puts us there as a statement to say this treasure.
1:18:00
That is so, Ethan. But there is the Excellency of
1:18:04
power, you know, so that the Excellency of power might be of
1:18:08
God and not of us. Zechariah chapter one, verse 3.
1:18:18
Let's hurry up. Zechariah One verse 3 Therefore
1:18:28
say thou unto them. Thus sayeth the Lord of hosts.
1:18:32
Turn ye unto me, sayeth the Lord of hosts, and I will turn unto
1:18:36
you. Can I tell you, Don't expect God
1:18:38
to turn to you if you have not turned to Him.
1:18:41
You turn to Him as a sign of your desperation, as a sign of
1:18:45
your desperation. There is, there is nothing.
1:18:49
So there is nothing as powerful as a believer coming to God and
1:18:54
saying, Lord, thank God for all these things.
1:18:56
I have my business connections. Thank God for the intelligence.
1:19:00
I have degrees, I have all of this.
1:19:03
But I stand before you, oh God. And I acknowledge that if you do
1:19:07
not open a door in this Abuja, that door will not be open.
1:19:11
If you do not open a door, it will not be open.
1:19:15
And God says in spite of all these things, you still have the
1:19:18
sense to look unto me. Now the Bible says they looked
1:19:22
unto Him and their faces were lightened.
1:19:27
Do you know why several people, especially in this season,
1:19:30
continue to fall victims of shame and the rest, in spite of
1:19:35
whatever qualifications? I will tell you why.
1:19:39
Because when God wants to use people, He uses you in a way
1:19:43
that all men will see that it is His power at work in you.
1:19:47
And if for any reason you have the tendency of pushing Him in
1:19:51
front of the stage light, you will not do business with God
1:19:58
over dependence, on the strength of the flesh over dependence.
1:20:06
We have to repent of this pride, not just men of God.
1:20:10
I tell you this, this our generation is so arrogant
1:20:16
building of empires. It is by my strength.
1:20:19
Every man was a baby in the hand of a woman.
1:20:22
One day we have to be careful. There is the God who sits the
1:20:26
monarch of the universe and we must be careful.
1:20:29
Let's our preachers, let's be careful As God keeps doing
1:20:33
mighty things through our lives. We must be careful.
1:20:36
Let members know we are men. It's just that we are of God is
1:20:42
this system of self glorification.
1:20:46
There is a difference between honor and pride.
1:20:51
Go and read your Bible. And see what happened to people
1:20:54
who refuse to acknowledge God. We give you the highest, the
1:21:01
highest praise to the king. I give you the loudest.
1:21:11
I lift my holy hand. I give you worship, worship the
1:21:22
highest praise to the King. I give you worship, worship.
1:21:32
You have taken all the pain. You have taken all the sorrows,
1:21:39
you have taken all limitations. You have taken all the tubes.
1:21:45
You have made the meals. Listen lesson #1 this night.
1:21:57
If you want God to use you this year, let your knees be close to
1:22:01
the ground. When men clap for you and say
1:22:05
you build this house in two months you bought this house 500
1:22:09
million like binary charge card. The moment you want the devil to
1:22:14
help and massage your back, sit and kills.
1:22:17
Don't forget he's a thief. He will first clap for you
1:22:20
before he kills you. May this be the year where God
1:22:26
will heal through you, man of God.
1:22:28
And when people begin to idolize you, you say, listen, I thank
1:22:32
God for using me, but let me tell you sincerely, there is one
1:22:35
who is mightier than I am. I'm only a vessel over
1:22:43
dependence. Business people, let me
1:22:47
encourage you, the person talking to you is not stupid.
1:22:51
God gave us brains, that is true.
1:22:56
Or there is something about depending on him.
1:23:03
God knows that I depend on him. This ministry depends on him for
1:23:10
everything. We may not know everything it
1:23:14
takes to succeed from a psychological standpoint, from a
1:23:19
from an intellectual standpoint, and we will continue to learn,
1:23:22
but can I tell you and the Lord walking with them, that was the
1:23:27
secret, confirming the word with signs following.
1:23:33
You think technology can turn HIV positive to negative just
1:23:41
like that. Thank God for the advancement in
1:23:45
medicine and gynecology and all of these things.
1:23:48
Have you not seen people who have tried everything and yet no
1:23:51
child? This is a message God is
1:23:55
speaking to someone already. The day you stop depending on
1:23:58
your power, can I tell you, go and carry your certificate, Go
1:24:02
and carry your your real estate company registration.
1:24:06
Drop it on the ground and say, Lord, you are exalted above it.
1:24:10
You are exalted above it. You are carry your ID card.
1:24:14
I know you work with World Bank. I know you work with all.
1:24:18
Drop it on the ground and say, Lord, I depend on you.
1:24:23
Let the mockers laugh at you while you are depending on Him
1:24:27
and He continues to lift you. We give you worship.
1:24:33
Worship the highest praise to the king.
1:24:38
We give you worship, worship the highest praise to the King.
1:24:45
We bow down. We bow down the deepest worship
1:24:51
to the King. We lift the holy hands.
1:25:05
Read your Bible and see why God are not Solomon so much there's
1:25:11
no time I would have shown you there are two reasons why God
1:25:14
lifted Solomon. One was because of his
1:25:17
sacrifice, but two was because of the nature of his dependence
1:25:21
in asking for God gave him a a blank check.
1:25:26
What do you want, including your enemies.
1:25:30
He did not say give me wisdom, go and read it.
1:25:32
He said, Lord, you see, you know the kind of person you have
1:25:35
called as limited as I am like this, I am unable to lead this
1:25:40
your people. So please grant onto your
1:25:44
servant and understanding heart and the Bible says it.
1:25:47
Please, the Lord, he said. Because you have not asked for
1:25:50
this or the life of your enemies of this and that, and that you
1:25:55
have asked for understanding, to dissent, judgment.
1:25:58
He said I will give you. Verse 12 now says I will give
1:26:01
you. All of these things are
1:26:03
understanding her so that there is no man like you. 13 In
1:26:07
addition to this, I will give you the things you have not
1:26:11
asked for, both riches and honor.
1:26:14
That means riches and shame can go together.
1:26:21
Dependence. A.
1:26:28
Possible. I just got an award.
1:26:30
I came back from Harvard. I'm the best student.
1:26:32
It's impossible for Nigeria to reject me.
1:26:40
You go and read about your country, someone can be in his
1:26:47
room just crying and say Lord this is not self condemnation.
1:26:53
I hope you understand what I'm teaching you.
1:26:55
Yes, carry everything wet. Go and lend a mystery of the
1:27:05
worship of the elders. The 24 elders.
1:27:09
Did they have to remove their crowns to worship?
1:27:12
Why didn't they worship with their crowns?
1:27:14
I thought the most important part of worship is your knees.
1:27:16
Go and learn from them. Your knees are useless until
1:27:19
your crown is on the ground. Many of us are kneeling down
1:27:24
with our crown and God is saying so Who is king now?
1:27:36
We pray that God will raise extremely successful people who
1:27:40
will teach the nation's dependence that when people are
1:27:44
asking you and say, how did you build this thing, you can tell
1:27:49
them all the principles and then wrap up by saying, can I tell
1:27:52
you there are gaps in this equation that even me, I don't
1:27:56
know the answer. I just know that 1 + 1 was
1:28:00
there, Wisdom plus divine direction plus relationships
1:28:04
plus diligence plus discipline plus God equal to my answer.
1:28:15
Many times people try to ask me the secrets of this, the secrets
1:28:18
of that, and I share with them principles.
1:28:21
I share with you principles. But from the beginning to the
1:28:25
end of my sharing, I can tell you that there are gaps in our
1:28:29
knowledge that only the size of God can feel.
1:28:33
Preacher, you will not build a church just by principles.
1:28:36
You can be the most sincere person with character and
1:28:39
integrity and nobody will still come to your church.
1:28:43
You can preach truth, heaven, hell, rapture, doctrine with
1:28:48
soundness of scripture and remain there as if God did not
1:28:51
call you. I am Mandan before your Glorious
1:29:00
Majesty. I cast my crown before the
1:29:09
highest royalty. I am undone before your Glorious
1:29:19
Majesty. You're the King of kings, and
1:29:23
Lord our Lord you are, the King you are.
1:29:33
The Lord your. Royal.
1:29:40
Majesty, listen, let me teach you something that I do in the
1:29:46
night sometimes. Don't just worship God by lying
1:29:50
down the ground. One of the ways that you worship
1:29:54
God is to worship Him in the presence of what wants.
1:29:59
Your worship is a powerful mystery.
1:30:03
I don't just worship God alone like that.
1:30:05
Sometimes I carry every a representation of everything
1:30:10
that looks like accolades. We all worship together,
1:30:15
whatever ones. My worship must join me in
1:30:18
worshiping God. That is one of the ways to
1:30:20
overcome the temptation of worshiping things.
1:30:25
So if it is your wallet, I'm not saying idolize it.
1:30:27
Your ID card, your promotion letter, don't lie down, leave it
1:30:31
on the table. Lie down with it.
1:30:34
Lord, this is what you have done for me.
1:30:37
And someone is calling you and saying you are now the CEO.
1:30:40
Tell them wait, but you are wasting time.
1:30:42
This is how I became the CEO please.
1:30:55
Can I tell you this? Let me give you an assignment by
1:31:08
God, every home and every individual.
1:31:11
Try to take at least a day in this week.
1:31:14
If you can't do it with your family, do it alone.
1:31:17
This busy, busy hustling, going up and down trying to do this.
1:31:22
You sit down in someone to the front of someone's office from
1:31:25
morning till night and then they drive you again.
1:31:28
Come back, listen, listen, listen, listen.
1:31:31
Sometimes we need to go back and just worship.
1:31:35
We are people of prayer, but we must also be a people of
1:31:39
worship. It is not just prayer alone.
1:31:43
Learn worship. If you Can't Sing, let something
1:31:48
sing for you. That's the importance of
1:31:50
technology. Give technology the assignment
1:31:53
to sing for you and join you as you worship your makeup.
1:31:57
And you bow before him and say Lord, it is because of you I am
1:32:01
here. And while you are saying it,
1:32:04
your wallet is hearing, your ATM is hearing you.
1:32:07
Force them to join in that worship.
1:32:10
And God says, this is for me. Now let me do for you what you
1:32:13
cannot do for yourself. You are done with that worship.
1:32:16
You pick up your phone and see missed calls and text messages
1:32:20
and you are wondering this man have been trying to call.
1:32:26
Believe what I'm teaching you. I will not waste your time this
1:32:29
night. These are these are mysteries
1:32:32
you want to command results that will preach to a territory next
1:32:40
Sunday's miracle service. People are coming with all kinds
1:32:43
of burdens. I'm not a herbalist.
1:32:46
How in the world do you think you are going to touch people
1:32:49
and pray from here? And people all over the world
1:32:52
get healed, get blessed. Let me tell you after I'm done
1:32:56
praying, this ground is a blessing.
1:32:59
You roll down and say, oh, God who bought you is able to heal
1:33:06
and bless and help and lift. And in that atmosphere of
1:33:11
worship that Shekinah just comes to mind to you.
1:33:16
And it's like electricity from head to toe and head to toe.
1:33:20
And there are all kinds of impartations.
1:33:24
Yours. Is just to stay there.
1:33:26
Paratuski ada karabakatoski abata cosia.
1:33:31
You come out of that atmosphere, the only thing that comes from
1:33:34
you is fire from head to toe. Preachers, I'm not, I'm not.
1:33:42
You can't sit down and watch a movie by morning and quickly
1:33:47
just get up and take your bath and come for a miracle service.
1:33:49
And after all, is Jesus doing it?
1:33:52
Did you tell him you know He's the one doing it?
1:34:02
I will lay down my aidos and Thrones I have made and all that
1:34:11
has taken my heart. Lord, I will bow to you, to no
1:34:23
other God. But you, we have to rush.
1:34:34
Please sit down key #1 that has stopped believers from
1:34:44
experiencing the mighty hand of God over dependence on the
1:34:50
strength of the flesh. If most people will pray and
1:34:57
study their Bible and worship 110th with 110th of the passion
1:35:04
they used to run around humans for help, they will not be the
1:35:07
same position there. Can I tell you everything you
1:35:15
get minus God will kill you no matter how important it is to
1:35:22
you. If you have to drop God to get
1:35:24
it, it's only a matter of time. Yeshua Hamashiach.
1:35:43
Everything belongs to you, belongs to you.
1:35:48
Fathers, don't go to your house and bully your wives and
1:35:51
children and say, listen, I build this house.
1:35:54
If I were stupid, this house will not be built.
1:35:56
God says OK, maintain it. Children, I'm the one taking
1:36:09
care of the parents. Don't talk to me anyhow, it's my
1:36:11
money. I can stop sponsoring you.
1:36:15
And you wake up by morning and that hand that you used to lift
1:36:20
against your parents because of what you are giving does not
1:36:22
lift again. And God says heal yourself.
1:36:29
There is nothing as ugly as self righteousness trying to believe
1:36:34
that it is just. It is just by merit.
1:36:37
It is true that there is a price for these dimensions, but can I
1:36:40
tell you the truth? We have to let the world know.
1:36:45
You see the regions that have rejected Jesus for technology.
1:36:50
This is not the first time men are rejecting Jesus for other
1:36:53
things. They rejected Jesus and chose
1:36:55
Barabbas. If people can reject Jesus and
1:36:59
choose crime, only God knows what else they can reject him
1:37:02
for. Crucify him this head.
1:37:06
Give us Barabbas. We know he's a thief, but we
1:37:10
choose him to Jesus. People have chosen technology to
1:37:13
Jesus. People have chosen education to
1:37:16
Jesus. People have chosen the
1:37:18
philosophies of men to Jesus. And you see the catastrophe that
1:37:25
is happening around the world today because by the strength of
1:37:29
man shall no man prevail. This earth is old.
1:37:32
Everybody's a tenant. Some people came and passed for
1:37:36
us to be here. They passed and they left their
1:37:39
lessons of wisdom or foolishness.
1:37:41
They left it behind. That is the God who is the
1:37:44
monarch of the universe. We must return back to
1:37:48
acknowledging Jesus publicly, directly #2 what is the second
1:38:03
reason? Why believers are not able to
1:38:06
experience mighty walks? Remember what we're dealing with
1:38:13
the witness of mighty walks that when you want to command
1:38:20
salvation over territories, there needs to be levels of
1:38:24
results from your life. And that the first reason why we
1:38:28
do not have the mighty walks that can witness, can preach to
1:38:33
the territory. Is because of over dependence on
1:38:37
the strength of the flesh #2 ignorance and disobedience to
1:38:43
God's principles. Now we can talk principles.
1:38:48
Ecclesiastes chapter 10 and verse 15.
1:38:51
Let's hurry up. Ecclesiastes 10 and verse 15.
1:38:55
The labour of the foolish worried.
1:38:58
How many of them? Every one of them, because he
1:39:04
knoweth not how to go to where. So there is a relationship
1:39:11
between where he's going to the city.
1:39:16
He intends to go to the city, but how to go to the city is
1:39:22
what he does not. Know.
1:39:25
The labor of the foolish weary at every one of them, because he
1:39:32
know what not how to go to the city.
1:39:39
Ephesians chapter 4 and verse 18 popular scripture it says having
1:39:44
the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of
1:39:48
God through the ignorance that is in them because of the
1:39:53
blindness. Here it is again, the blindness,
1:39:57
blindness of their hearts. Can I tell you this?
1:40:02
Anybody who wants to rise and to excel in this Kingdom in that
1:40:07
order. Once you have acknowledged the
1:40:10
God of heaven, the next thing you must understand and learn is
1:40:15
Jesus the way. Jesus the Way is a capture of
1:40:19
the methodologies, the modus operandi of the Kingdom.
1:40:24
It says there is a way that cement right onto a man, but the
1:40:27
end hereof are the ways of death.
1:40:31
Jesus the way you can learn the ways of God to a life of
1:40:35
excellence and a life of glory. The Bible leaves us with two
1:40:46
options as far as obtaining results is concerned.
1:40:50
We see that in Egypt in the presence of Pharaoh.
1:40:53
We see that all through Scripture that there is God's
1:40:57
way or the Kingdom's way of doing things.
1:41:00
Please look up. And there is the world's way of
1:41:03
doing things. Moses had a way that God taught
1:41:07
him to produce results. Janus and Jembers, the magicians
1:41:13
of Egypt had their way. There are two options all men
1:41:22
will have in this earth as far as producing results is
1:41:26
concerned. You can follow the way of the
1:41:29
devil, the way of men, or you can follow the way of the
1:41:34
Kingdom. The result, listen to me.
1:41:36
The result is the side effect that comes with whatever way you
1:41:42
choose. For instance, the Bible says it
1:41:45
is the blessing of the Lord that make it rich and added no
1:41:49
sorrow. It gives you that information
1:41:52
because there is another pathway that can seem to bless you and
1:41:56
with it come with sorrow. Are we learning Isaiah chapter
1:42:03
31? I believe verse one to three it
1:42:06
talks about the way of Egypt. Woe to them that go down to
1:42:10
Egypt for help. Look up please.
1:42:12
Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help, and stay on
1:42:17
horses, and trust in Chariots because they are many, and in
1:42:22
horsemen because they are very strong, but they look not unto
1:42:27
the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the Lord.
1:42:31
Verse 2. Yet he also is wise, and will
1:42:35
bring evil, and will not call back his words, but will arise
1:42:39
against the House of evil doers, and against the help of them
1:42:43
that work iniquity. Verse 3.
1:42:46
It says, Now the Egyptians are men, and not God.
1:42:52
Now you be God. Let's keep that Scripture there.
1:43:18
Verse 331, verse three, he says now this Egyptians, this
1:43:24
ambassador, this senator, this apostle, you are trusting him.
1:43:29
Amen. And not God, he said.
1:43:33
And their horses flesh and not spirit.
1:43:38
When the Lord shall stretch out his hand, both he that helpeth
1:43:43
shall fall, and he that is helped shall fall.
1:43:48
They shall fall together. Do you know what he's telling
1:43:50
you? The vanity of following the ways
1:43:53
of man, that both the one who claims he can show you the road
1:43:58
and you who is following the road under a certain
1:44:01
circumstance both of you can fall.
1:44:14
Before you follow what men are telling you, look at what they
1:44:17
are following. If they are not following the
1:44:20
principles of the Kingdom, they are only wasting your time.
1:44:24
Is a matter of time and you will find out you've been wasting
1:44:27
your time. Are we together?
1:44:34
I've spent my life learning the ways of the Kingdom and I will
1:44:37
continue to do this for as long as I live because I have found
1:44:41
out that the ways of the Kingdom is not really very easy to learn
1:44:46
in truth. Because you will need discipline
1:44:49
and diligence. You will need a long time to
1:44:52
understand the dynamics of the workings of the Kingdom.
1:44:55
But if and when you pay that price by God and learn it, your
1:44:59
life will become invincible. It will be you will be a sign
1:45:03
and a wonder. And the thing about this Kingdom
1:45:05
truth is when you hold the keys, you've held them.
1:45:08
It's true. We have giant doors that closed
1:45:18
this great auditorium, and those doors open at the instance of
1:45:23
keys, not physical strength. You can be so macho and strong
1:45:29
and yet you will stand helpless in front of these doors from
1:45:32
morning till night simply because a key you can put inside
1:45:36
your. Pocket was missing.
1:45:40
Are we together? As as big as a truck is, there
1:45:47
is a key that kicks it, and that key, the driver can put it in
1:45:53
his pocket, but God help him to forget where the key is.
1:45:56
The patrol can can stand there full of petrol, but it will not
1:46:00
move. Fine engine, fine tires,
1:46:04
beautiful car, even a new one, but because there was no key, it
1:46:09
will stand there. When somebody wants to present
1:46:12
to you the gift of a car, what does he give you?
1:46:16
Why does he give you the paint of the car?
1:46:21
He now comes to tell you, look, your car is outside, but here is
1:46:26
the car. Then he gives you a key and you
1:46:28
say thank you for giving me the car.
1:46:31
You don't say thank you for giving me the keys, because when
1:46:34
he gave you the keys, he gave you the car.
1:46:39
Are you getting what I'm telling you now?
1:46:40
This is very powerful. Jesus said, and I will give you
1:46:45
the keys of the Kingdom of heaven, and with those keys you
1:46:49
will bind. That means disallow, and with
1:46:52
those keys you will lose. That means allow.
1:46:55
It is at the instance of the mysteries of the Kingdom that we
1:46:59
reign, we rise, and we thrive. I believe in the mysteries of
1:47:06
the Kingdom. I have taught you here that
1:47:09
mysteries control results in this Kingdom.
1:47:13
There are mysteries that control wealth and prosperity.
1:47:16
There are mysteries that control longevity and joy.
1:47:19
There are mysteries that control increase.
1:47:22
All of this come by God and you can learn the ways of God.
1:47:26
You can submit yourself and learn the ways of God.
1:47:30
This is the assignment of the preacher Jeremiah 315 to feed
1:47:34
you he says with knowledge and understanding of what the
1:47:38
mysteries of the Kingdom. Matthew 13 and verse 11 Jesus
1:47:43
was speaking and he said because it has been given to you to know
1:47:48
the mysteries of the Kingdom of heaven believers results in this
1:47:55
Kingdom are not accidental sustainable results haven't
1:48:01
charged you to acknowledge Jesus above results.
1:48:05
He has set that principle for us, that God is also the God of
1:48:12
systems. Please say systems.
1:48:15
There is the systemic nature of the Kingdom.
1:48:19
You would notice from the Bible that God will hardly do the same
1:48:22
thing twice. When He does it once, He will
1:48:25
build a system within it for continuity.
1:48:28
He's never had to create man and woman again.
1:48:32
He only did that once and programmed within them a system
1:48:35
for continuity. The same thing everything we eat
1:48:38
today, it does not fall from heaven necessarily.
1:48:44
He created a system. Your seed.
1:48:47
The earth, water, and a system of nourishment for the seed
1:48:52
leave the rest of God. Just as you do not know how
1:48:56
bones are formed in the womb of heart, that is with child, or
1:48:59
the way of the wind, it says so also you do not know the way of
1:49:03
God. There are dimensions of the ways
1:49:05
of God that you cannot learn intellectually, but the ones you
1:49:09
can learn, you must learn it. Say have time.
1:49:12
In the name of Jesus I obtain grace.
1:49:16
To be a student of the mysteries of the Kingdom, Say it again.
1:49:21
In the name of Jesus I obtain grace.
1:49:24
To be a student of the mysteries of the Kingdom, wishing and
1:49:30
hoping will not produce results. No, we must submit ourselves to
1:49:37
strategic learning. Strategic learning.
1:49:41
Can I tell you this year of marvelous light?
1:49:44
Don't waste it, write out every aspect of your life where you
1:49:48
are not sure of the mysteries that control that result and
1:49:52
become a spiritual archaeologist researching 1 by 1.
1:49:56
What is this thing about this finance?
1:50:00
Don't start January to December hustling, running up and down
1:50:04
again and hoping I know it to work.
1:50:06
I just made a slight mistake last year.
1:50:08
No, your mistake is a report card.
1:50:11
It tells what you were thinking. Go back to the word.
1:50:14
There has to be a way. Makaposki de Balandos Theatre
1:50:18
and the Holy Spirit leads you to a message, and you listen to
1:50:22
that message and light comes and you wave that R.E.M. goodbye and
1:50:28
it waves you. Why do I have just hundred
1:50:30
members? Respectfully speaking, not that
1:50:33
crowd necessarily is a measure of success.
1:50:35
Why do I have just 200 members? Why do people come and go?
1:50:39
There must be something I do not know.
1:50:41
The Bible says in Proverbs 18 and verse one it says through
1:50:44
desire a man haven't separated himself.
1:50:48
He said he's secret and intermittent with all wisdom.
1:50:54
It takes desire and passion. Why do I keep experiencing
1:51:00
disfavor in my life? People like me today, they don't
1:51:03
like me tomorrow. There has to be consistency and
1:51:06
predictability to this. Open my eyes that I may see man
1:51:11
of God. Why is it that you seem to see
1:51:13
the power of God in this meeting and then in another meeting?
1:51:16
It looks like you are almost a suspect of using divination
1:51:20
because nothing, absolutely nothing happens.
1:51:23
You finish a meeting that is powerful and blessed people were
1:51:26
healed. Another meeting they are praying
1:51:28
that you finish and go because they don't understand what is
1:51:30
going. This inconsistency and
1:51:32
amateurism can be solved when you gain mastery.
1:51:35
He says he that strikes for mastery is not crown except he
1:51:39
strives lawfully. Are we together?
1:51:51
Obedience is powerful and light is powerful. 2 Scriptures and
1:51:55
then we'll move to the next point, Deuteronomy Chapter 7.
1:51:58
We'll read from verse 12 to 15. Deuteronomy Chapter 7.
1:52:03
Please write it, and look up Deuteronomy 712 to 15.
1:52:06
Wherefore it shall come to pass, if he hacken to these judgments,
1:52:12
and keep and do them, that the Lord thy God shall keep unto
1:52:18
thee the covenant and the mercy which he sway unto your Father.
1:52:23
'S. And he will love thee, and bless
1:52:27
thee, and multiply thee, and he will bless the fruit of thy
1:52:32
womb. Do you know what the fruit of
1:52:35
your womb is? The fruit of your womb is your
1:52:38
child. The fruit of your womb is your
1:52:40
ideas. Your mind is also a womb.
1:52:45
I hope you know that. So don't think he's just talking
1:52:47
about women alone. And you can give birth to a
1:52:51
child that you say, why did I not hear God and not even give
1:52:54
birth to this child? Because of the trouble he, he
1:52:56
can give you. But the Bible says he can bless
1:52:59
is one thing to have the fruit of your womb, your idea, your
1:53:03
child, but it's one thing for it to be blessed.
1:53:06
It says you will bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of
1:53:10
your land, thy corn, thy wine, thy oil, the increase of thy
1:53:14
kind, the flux of thy sheep, and the land which is swear unto the
1:53:20
fathers to give thee. It says Thou shall be blessed
1:53:25
above all people, and there shall not be male or female,
1:53:30
barren among you or among your cattle.
1:53:36
As you say Amen, Say Amen to two things.
1:53:39
Amen to the graceful obedience and Amen to what I'm saying.
1:53:43
Because if you are just saying Amen to what I'm saying, I hate
1:53:46
to be the bearer of bad news, but you will say Amen, and
1:53:50
perhaps sadly, you may not see it manifest.
1:53:54
Amen means let it be so. Let it be so that I will obey,
1:53:58
and let it be so that I will see.
1:54:00
What the Lord has said, are we together?
1:54:05
Obedience Deuteronomy chapter 28.
1:54:10
We read verse two to seven, then jump to 11 and 12.
1:54:13
Let's hurry up. Is someone learning tonight?
1:54:15
And all these blessings shall come on thee now say Amen, and
1:54:19
overtake thee, if thou shalt hacken onto the voice of the
1:54:24
Lord. That's the condition verse 3.
1:54:29
The Lord shall cause thy enemies that rise up against thee to be
1:54:32
smitten before thy face. They shall come out against thee
1:54:37
one way, and flee before thee seven ways.
1:54:42
And the Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit
1:54:46
of thy body, in the fruit of thy cattle, the fruit of thy ground,
1:54:50
and the land which the Lord swear unto thy fathers to give
1:54:53
thee. Deuteronomy chapter.
1:54:58
We are reading to seven, and then we jump to 11 and 12.
1:55:01
OK, let's go to 11 quickly. Did you read two to seven?
1:55:06
OK, let's just finish 12 Forsake of time.
1:55:08
Give us 12. And the Lord shall open unto
1:55:12
thee his good treasure, the heavens, to give thee rain unto
1:55:16
thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thy hand.
1:55:20
And thou shall lend to many nations, and thou shalt not
1:55:25
borrow. I know that many of you will not
1:55:27
believe this that was written, but believe me, everything God
1:55:31
wrote, He meant it. You must obtain grace from God
1:55:39
to fight ignorance. Fight it thoroughly this year
1:55:44
and then obtain the grace for complete obedience.
1:55:52
Are we together? #3 What is the third reason why
1:55:56
believers are not able to produce mighty walks that become
1:56:01
witnesses to territories? Are you ready?
1:56:05
Demonic oppression. Demonic oppression?
1:56:10
Yes Sir. Ephesians chapter 6 and verse
1:56:14
12. Ephesians 6 and verse 12 For we
1:56:19
wrestle not against flesh and blood, the Bible says, but
1:56:23
against principalities powers, against the rulers of the
1:56:29
darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high
1:56:36
places. First John chapter 5 and verse
1:56:40
19 tells us we are of God and the whole world lies in
1:56:45
wickedness. There is no part of the world
1:56:48
that is spared. It says the whole world lieth in
1:56:52
wickedness in First Thessalonians chapter 2 one
1:56:59
verse 8. Popular scripture.
1:57:01
First Thessalonians chapter 2 one verse 8.
1:57:05
Am I right on that? Is it 8 or 818?
1:57:08
First Thessalonians 218 I desire to come to you.
1:57:12
Wherefore we would have come to you.
1:57:15
Even I, Paul, once and again read it with me.
1:57:19
But Satan hindered us. But Satan hindered us.
1:57:27
Satan can fight men, can fight their influence, their joy,
1:57:31
their visibility, can fight the giftings of God in their lives,
1:57:35
can fight ministries, businesses, families, dreams,
1:57:39
visions. Satan can try to hinder men.
1:57:44
The Bible did not leave us in the dark as to the fact that
1:57:47
there is an adversary that is out determined to thwart
1:57:51
everything that is God in our. Lives.
1:57:57
Satan will not fold his arms and watch you continue to excel.
1:58:01
He will not fold his arms and watch Ministry excel, family
1:58:05
excel, your career excel, your visibility excel.
1:58:09
He will make attempts to see that he fights it.
1:58:14
Demonic oppression. The Bible encourages us to put
1:58:18
the full armor of God or the whole armor of God.
1:58:23
There's, there's even a, there's even a teaching, a teaching
1:58:25
series on that, the whole armor of God.
1:58:29
I will be explaining to you what the Bible means when he says the
1:58:32
whole armor of God, because you can put some when Satan looks at
1:58:37
you spiritually, there is what he's looking at.
1:58:41
And when he finds a place that is not fortified and covered,
1:58:45
that becomes his entrance point. So the Bible says no weapon
1:58:48
fashioned against you, Fashioning requires creativity,
1:58:52
observation. Are we together?
1:58:57
Yes. So the Bible talks of the helmet
1:58:59
of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness and all of that,
1:59:03
the entire formation. He calls it the whole armour of
1:59:07
God. He says on the strength of that
1:59:09
whole armour you will be able to stand against the Wiles of the
1:59:13
enemy, the strategies of the enemy.
1:59:25
In my life and in ministry, I have seen demonic oppressions
1:59:30
over people. Look at the story of this our
1:59:33
dear sister, the lady who got married to that gentle that,
1:59:37
that that gentleman. You see that and you can imagine
1:59:44
HIV from nowhere just landed. I, I can tell you, there are so
1:59:48
many people that I have prayed for who will tell you they went
1:59:52
to bed in peace and they saw these demonic entities who come
1:59:56
whole syringes, inject them and they will wake up physically
2:00:00
with HIV or some kind of oppression, and they will wake
2:00:06
up with all kinds of demonic things that cannot be explained.
2:00:11
Many years ago, sincerely so, this was in Zarya.
2:00:15
A woman met me, she she had a still birth and she gave birth
2:00:19
while she was pregnant. She said every night she would
2:00:22
see like monkeys and chimpanzees come to her, try to oppress her,
2:00:26
molest her and do all of these things and she took it for
2:00:29
granted. God is my witness.
2:00:31
She said she gave birth to a child that was hairy like a
2:00:34
monkey was still birth. Physically, the realm of the
2:00:40
spirit is a real realm, and it can find expression here.
2:00:47
Are we together? If you are in doubt, ask Job.
2:00:52
The discussion about his destiny was not done on earth yet the
2:00:57
result was seen on earth. Are we together now?
2:01:02
This is not to scare you, but this is to let you know that
2:01:06
Satan will not leave you by default.
2:01:09
He did not leave Jesus by default.
2:01:11
The Bible says he left him for a season.
2:01:15
Your assignment is to be equipped with the truths from
2:01:20
Scripture that makes for your victory in Christ.
2:01:27
And I hope that I will have the time to teach us.
2:01:31
I'm telling you, you are in for an amazing time this year
2:01:35
because that Deliverance. Wait till we get to our
2:01:37
Deliverance series because I'll be teaching you what the Bible
2:01:43
calls weapons of victory. You have to know what they are.
2:01:47
Most believers do not know the tools for victory.
2:01:51
The power of the word, the power of the name, the power of the
2:01:55
blood. There are many extra biblical
2:02:00
weapons that are not needed. Many, many people have shipped
2:02:04
in. All kinds of things, in fact.
2:02:06
Let me show you something. While I was preparing, I wrote
2:02:09
something down, Leviticus chapter 20 and verse 6.
2:02:13
The Lord put it in my heart, and it is both a burden and a
2:02:18
warning. The body of Christ and believers
2:02:22
have to be careful. I know that because it seems
2:02:26
like we're not seeing the power and the grace of God as should
2:02:29
be. Many people are beginning to are
2:02:31
beginning to resort to all kinds of occultic and demonic things.
2:02:37
Here's a word from the Lord and the soul that turneth after such
2:02:41
as have familiar spirits and after Wizards go worrying after
2:02:47
them. I will even set my face against
2:02:50
that soul and I will cut him off from among his people.
2:02:54
Deuteronomy 18 from verse 10. This is a warning.
2:02:58
Deuteronomy 18 from verse 10, he says there shall not be found
2:03:05
among you, Nigeria, Africa. Listen, anyone that maketh his
2:03:10
son or his daughter parents please hear this.
2:03:15
To pass through fire, or that user divination, or an observer
2:03:20
of times, or an enchanter, or a witch next verse, or a charmer,
2:03:27
or a consultant with familiar. Spirits, or a wizard or a
2:03:31
necromancer. He's giving a warning that among
2:03:37
the fold of day that be of faith, these kinds of things
2:03:40
should not be found. You will be surprised to know
2:03:43
how many believers who sit in church, sing and dance, fall
2:03:48
down under the anointing, stand up and immediately church is
2:03:51
over. They would go to any length to
2:03:54
go and consult mediums and consult all kinds of things.
2:03:58
I'm not condemning you. It's with a heart of love.
2:04:09
Many of us come from families and backgrounds where we are
2:04:13
supposed to participate in that heritage of continuity of all
2:04:17
these idols and the rest. And those powers will not want
2:04:21
to let you go. They will appear to you.
2:04:24
People will send for you from the village and say we are still
2:04:26
waiting. You are supposed to continue
2:04:28
this. But the Bible says we have been
2:04:32
called out of every tribe tongue kindred.
2:04:36
It's a new race, but you must connect to knowledge.
2:04:41
Hallelujah. I have seen great people who
2:04:44
love God, but out of pressure they went to consult familiar
2:04:47
spirits, respectfully speaking preachers, business people.
2:04:52
They don't have to necessarily be evil.
2:04:54
Can I tell you do not allow any kind of pressure push you to
2:04:59
invite Satan to your? Life for help.
2:05:04
Satan does not help men. He only destroys apostle.
2:05:09
I'm in need of a child 10-15 years and someone says there's
2:05:13
someone. It's not exactly a pastor, but
2:05:15
it's not bad. He really, he has this thing.
2:05:18
He is a gift because gift God gave everybody.
2:05:21
Be careful. Some of those sociological
2:05:23
things, I know it's not easy, but we must obtain grace from
2:05:27
God. Or there's something I can give
2:05:30
you. It will bring members or there's
2:05:32
something I can give you. It will bring power.
2:05:35
There's something I can give you.
2:05:36
The worst one is the one of money.
2:05:40
You look at the person who wants to bless you and you look at him
2:05:43
and you even give him on already on because of how miserable he's
2:05:46
looking. How in the world is that person
2:05:49
going to help you? He's not even a kingmaker.
2:05:55
That is not kingmaker anointing. That person is miserable.
2:05:59
What do you think happens to the chicken and the goat and the ram
2:06:04
and the cow? Justin, Justin, for one minute,
2:06:09
aside from the one they bury in front of you, what do you think
2:06:12
actually happens when you go? They just tell you go, it is
2:06:15
done. Then what happens?
2:06:29
Are we together please in this this would I call it post
2:06:39
pandemic period. We need wisdom.
2:06:41
Don't allow anybody manipulate you and plunder you for nothing.
2:06:45
A native doctor that asks you to buy cow is a heartless person
2:06:49
knowing what has happened and and he's asking you what, what
2:06:54
sort of a thing is that? Buy this, buy that.
2:06:58
And you see people who are struggling, they go and buy all
2:07:01
these things with all kinds of promises.
2:07:04
You will get this contract and you find out that it does not
2:07:07
happen. Do you know why it does not
2:07:09
happen? I will tell you, even if there
2:07:11
is a semblance of power, it does not happen because the believer
2:07:15
in Christ will go there doubting an unbeliever will go with 100.
2:07:20
Do you know that it still takes faith for that thing to work?
2:07:24
So the reason why it does not work is the same reason why the
2:07:27
prophecy in church does not work because you are half hearted
2:07:30
either ways. The Bible says, let that man not
2:07:33
think he shall receive anything, while the man is.
2:07:37
Doing it you want to believe? What does that fear?
2:07:40
Jesus, you died for me. But you see, it's it's pleasure
2:07:43
that is making me do this. How can I call on your name?
2:08:27
You don't have to leave this place fighting anyone, but when
2:08:31
people invite you out of sympathy and say we've looked at
2:08:34
your situation, we want to help you.
2:08:38
You look at them with compassion and tell them if it's not in
2:08:42
your presence, if it's not from your head, if, if it's not by
2:08:55
your spirit, don't let me have it, for everything I need is in
2:09:05
you. The three Hebrew boys said we
2:09:09
will not bow to you or when it has to do with touching this
2:09:13
matter, our God will deliver us, but even if he does not deliver
2:09:17
us, we will. Not.
2:09:18
Bow don't say it's like that is the problem is where I come
2:09:24
from. You're not the only one who
2:09:25
comes from that place. War to those who go down to
2:09:32
Egypt for help. They will ask you to do
2:09:38
unbelievable things for power, kill your own children,
2:09:43
sacrifice whatever it is. Politicians, let's be careful.
2:09:47
This is the time for election now, and this is the time for
2:09:50
all this rubbish. Sound sincere people, but
2:09:54
because of desperation for power, let's be careful number
2:10:05
#4. What is the fourth reason why
2:10:09
believers are not able to command power and mighty works
2:10:20
#4 I wrote here. They trivialize and ignore the
2:10:26
place of spiritual empowerment. They trivialize and ignore the
2:10:35
place of spiritual empowerment. Ephesians 6. 10 We're about to
2:10:42
pray. Ephesians 610 Finally, their
2:10:48
brethren be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
2:10:57
Can I tell you this? Let me announce to you truly
2:11:00
that we are in the days of His power.
2:11:03
Believe me when I tell you we are truly in the days of His.
2:11:06
Power. You will see a display of the
2:11:10
power and the grace of and the glory of God through men in a
2:11:14
way that will surprise you. We are in the days of His power.
2:11:24
This is the wrongest time to trivialize and canonize the
2:11:29
place for spiritual empowerment. Spiritual empowerment is not for
2:11:33
men of God. Spiritual empowerment is not for
2:11:36
preachers alone. Spiritual empowerment is for all
2:11:40
those who desire to produce the kind of results that bring glory
2:11:45
to the name of the Lord. Isaiah chapter 10 and verse 27
2:11:51
popular Scripture. It shall come to pass in that
2:11:55
day. This is that day that his burden
2:11:58
shall be taken away from off your shoulder and his yoke from
2:12:02
off your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed not because
2:12:06
it has been hanging there for a long time.
2:12:08
It shall be destroyed because of the anointing my.
2:12:14
Head, you are exalted. Why do you need spiritual
2:12:47
empowerment? I've taught you here because
2:12:49
God's results cannot be produced by the strength of the flesh.
2:12:54
It will take God's ability to produce God's dimension of
2:12:58
results. When Jesus casted out devils,
2:13:03
they say you do this by Beelzebub, the Prince of demons,
2:13:07
he said If I do this by Beelzebub, by who do your
2:13:10
father's cast? Out, he said.
2:13:12
But if I by the finger of God do this, he says, then the Kingdom
2:13:16
has come to you. Can I tell you the demands of
2:13:20
your destiny does not require human power alone.
2:13:23
A major part of what you need in life has to be outsourced beyond
2:13:27
this realm. The power to stay healthy.
2:13:33
It will take more than exercise, exercise.
2:13:36
But in this wicked world it will take more than exercise.
2:13:41
It will take more than good food.
2:13:44
When you cook food it can drive germs, not demons.
2:13:54
Don't forget where they come from.
2:13:56
Its not cold, you need the power of God.
2:14:03
These are the days when God forbid you've heard me say it.
2:14:07
It's only when we get to heaven we will know what we have eaten
2:14:11
that was supposed to kill us. And they said till now you have
2:14:14
not died. Listen, believe us, it is a risk
2:14:21
to stay into this world without empowerment.
2:14:27
Someone can come and shake you and say good afternoon.
2:14:30
That kiss that is supposed to be a sign of love can be assigned
2:14:34
to the enemy. This is the person we have been
2:14:37
talking about. Say unto God Psalm 66 and verse
2:14:44
3, How terrible art thou in thy ways?
2:14:49
It says, through the greatness of thy power shall thy enemies
2:14:53
submit themselves unto you. It takes power even to stay
2:15:01
wealthy. The Bible says strong men retain
2:15:04
wealth. The easiest part of being
2:15:06
blessed is becoming wealthy. Remaining wealthy takes
2:15:10
strength, not just physical strength, the strength of God.
2:15:14
Because systems can change, governments can change.
2:15:18
One change in government can. Bankrupt you completely.
2:15:21
It takes strength to stay. Are we together?
2:15:32
Most believers frown. And spiritual empowerment.
2:15:35
They just feel I'm not called into ministry.
2:15:37
Mine is just banking. Mine is just family, mine is I'm
2:15:41
a farmer. I have no business with demons
2:15:43
and all of these things. Demons are everywhere,
2:15:47
Wickedness is everywhere and even if there are no demons and
2:15:51
wickedness, limitation is everywhere.
2:15:53
You need the strength of God Elijah you are about to run and
2:15:59
his 40 days journey. You need strength beyond that of
2:16:04
the natural man. When Elijah prophesied, reign.
2:16:11
When he prophesied, the Bible says that he ran.
2:16:14
He ran on barefoot. He overtook the Chariots of
2:16:18
Ahab, even down to Israel. Men and women of God, the burden
2:16:26
of ministry, especially at this times, it requires supernatural
2:16:30
strength to be able to survive. Otherwise one day you just
2:16:33
collapse on stage because you are tired.
2:16:36
No matter how you plan your life and plan ministry, you will
2:16:39
still be busy. It will still command strength
2:16:41
from you. Is God speaking to us tonight?
2:16:46
Everybody says strength. One more time says strength.
2:16:51
You will not trivialize the place of spiritual empowerment.
2:16:55
Jesus himself knew the value of spiritual empowerment and he
2:16:58
said tarry ye in Jerusalem. I have taught you what you need
2:17:02
more than a lecture for your territory to come under the
2:17:05
lordship of Christ. Tarry ye in Jerusalem and the
2:17:09
Bible says Acts chapter 2 from verse one.
2:17:14
It says, Now when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they
2:17:18
were all in one accord in that place.
2:17:20
Verse 2 says, suddenly it says, there came a sound from heaven
2:17:25
as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the house where they
2:17:29
were sitting. Verse 3 says, And there appeared
2:17:32
unto them cloven tongues, like as of fire.
2:17:35
It sat on each one of them. Verse 4 says They were filled
2:17:38
with the Holy Ghost and they began to speak with other
2:17:41
tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance, the manifestation of
2:17:45
power. And Paul was teaching and he
2:17:47
said this is that when you go to Acts chapter 4, they prayed also
2:17:51
in response to the threats that was coming.
2:17:53
They said, grant unto your servant that miracles and signs
2:17:58
and wonders be wrought through the name of your holy Son Jesus.
2:18:02
And when they finished praying, the Bible says the building
2:18:05
shook and they were filled with the Holy Ghost.
2:18:09
Can I tell you? We need the power of the Holy
2:18:11
Spirit, especially in these days.
2:18:13
You don't just speak and it comes to pass.
2:18:17
We want to see you like a mighty Russian wind, We want to dwell
2:18:26
under the shadow of your weeds. We want to see you like a mighty
2:18:34
Russian wind. We want to dwell under the
2:18:40
shadow of your wings. That's our prayer.
2:18:45
Blow, blow, blow like a mighty wind.
2:18:50
Spirit of victory. Cover.
2:18:54
Us with your wings. Blow, blow, blow like a mighty
2:19:01
wind. Spirit of victory.
2:19:10
It takes power to represent Jesus.
2:19:14
It takes power to produce signs and wonders.
2:19:18
It does not just take touching people.
2:19:20
You can touch people and that's just human contact.
2:19:24
It takes power to speak and it comes to pass.
2:19:28
It takes power to make degrees. And they move beyond the earth
2:19:33
realm into the realm of the Spirit, and I establish there.
2:19:37
It takes power. It takes power to be an
2:19:44
effective preacher. We're about to pray.
2:19:47
I tell you, I sense such a stronger anointing.
2:19:50
It takes power. The generation that rejects the
2:19:53
power of God is the generation that will bear the price in a
2:19:58
very, very fairway. We need extraordinary
2:20:02
manifestations of the power and the grace of God.
2:20:06
Abuja, the FCT will not receive the witness of mighty walks
2:20:10
except there is power. Nigeria, the 36 states that make
2:20:15
this federation. We will keep talking and
2:20:17
preaching, holding conferences and conventions and darkness
2:20:21
will continue to loom around our horizon.
2:20:25
It takes power. He called them two by two and
2:20:30
gave unto them power. Harass, Kubaras, yada.
2:20:36
It says go as you go. Preach saying the Kingdom of God
2:20:43
is at hand. It says in doing that, heal the
2:20:47
sick, cast out devils, raise the dead freely.
2:20:51
You are preceding preachers. We will continue to have empty
2:20:55
pews. Our territory will continue
2:20:57
saying Amen while we go down until there be men and women of
2:21:01
fire, people who understand the dynamics and the administration
2:21:06
of spiritual power. When God called me, I prayed and
2:21:13
I said, Lord, please do not just send me with a sermon.
2:21:18
This world is too dark for just a good sermon.
2:21:21
There is a need for genuine power.
2:21:23
Please hear me. It takes power to be a father,
2:21:27
not masculinity. It takes power to be a mother.
2:21:32
It takes power in a world today to go to school and finish well.
2:21:36
There are people who run mad during their last exam.
2:21:40
It takes power to remain. It takes power to leave your
2:21:43
house in the morning and return back safely in this, our wicked
2:21:47
world. It takes power to remain alive
2:21:51
today. We're going to pray this power
2:22:04
part will pray to I'm not just talking of this Jamboree and and
2:22:10
some of these things that we do in church sometimes know genuine
2:22:13
spiritual power. Jesus, your Jesus remained
2:22:23
quietly, not even doing ministry until he was endued with power
2:22:28
from on high. You have tried and tried and
2:22:34
tried in the strength of the flesh.
2:22:37
It's time to open up your hands and to receive power from
2:22:43
heaven. Are you ready to pray?
2:22:46
Please rise up on your feet. Thank the Lord for this word,
2:22:50
and then we're going to take a few minutes to pray. 2022 is a
2:22:56
year that you should not just enter casually.
2:22:59
No, you want to command salvation over territories.
2:23:06
It will take you depending on the God of heaven in all things.
2:23:13
It will take high level spiritual illumination alongside
2:23:18
the grace to obey. It will take the grace to ward
2:23:21
off all the demonic arsenals that try to fight the purposes
2:23:26
of God over your life. And it will take a genuine
2:23:29
encounter with power. Lift your voice and begin to.
2:23:32
Pray Lord, I'm tired of powerlessness as a believer.
2:23:37
Preachers pray. Businessmen pray.
2:23:40
All who are following from across the nation's pray.
2:23:43
We need to produce the kinds of results that bring glory to the
2:23:47
name of the Lord. It will.
2:23:49
Happen at the. Instance of the power of the
2:23:52
Holy Spirit that work in US. The Baranteca prodigal sedeca de
2:24:13
Bella catosa Pranda Catosia father Abuja the F City Nigeria,
2:24:20
Africa. Must come under the influence of
2:24:23
the Lordship of the Christ. We contend for the witness that
2:24:28
greater work spring on the territory.
2:24:31
We contend for the witness. We need our results to also
2:24:36
become preachers. Preaching to the territory that
2:24:41
you are alive. Preaching to the territory that
2:24:44
you are exalted. Preaching to the territory that
2:24:47
you are King of kings and Lord of Lords.
2:24:51
Don't be tired, pray. Our territory must come under
2:25:16
the influence of the Christ. Enough of having church services
2:25:21
and remaining there, shouting and jumping in church and
2:25:25
remaining there while the territory continues to plunge to
2:25:28
decadence. We are light.
2:25:30
We are sold ambassadors of the Kingdom.
2:25:34
It's time to preach to the territory.
2:25:36
We want our territory to experience salvation, not just
2:25:40
individuals. Territories can be saved,
2:25:43
regions can be saved. Nations can be saved.
2:25:47
The policies can be framed after the fear of the law.
2:25:57
Notable miracles, signs and wonders, manifestations of power
2:26:03
and grace. The wonder walking power of the
2:26:06
Spirit. Hallelujah, last prayer point
2:26:14
and I speak over your life. You are going to pray for
2:26:17
yourself Lord. Fresh power from on high upon my
2:26:23
life. Evident power, whose results
2:26:26
will be clear before all men, that I I have come as an envoy,
2:26:32
a representative of the Parliament of Heaven.
2:26:35
Without doubt, without any shadow of a doubt.
2:26:39
Lift your voice and pray. A prateeka barakosha like a
2:26:53
brand de la haciata. A pratus koto baraka teba la
2:26:57
cata baraka Tata. Power to heal, Power to change,
2:27:03
Power to transform, Power to lift, Power to bless, Power to
2:27:08
teach. Power to preach.
2:27:10
Power for entrepreneurship. Power for governance.
2:27:14
Power for excelling. Power for leadership.
2:27:20
Power to mentor. Power to raise.
2:27:23
Power to strengthen. Power to prosper.
2:27:26
Power for longevity. Power for health and vitality.
2:27:38
It's time to command results. Believe us.
2:27:42
Don't leave it to preach us alone.
2:27:44
Believe us. It is a year of marvelous light.
2:27:48
It's time to rise. Hallelujah, commanding salvation
2:28:08
over territories, the witness of greater walks, mighty walks,
2:28:16
your walk, the results from your life are also preachers.
2:28:21
They can preach. There is a message that they can
2:28:24
tell you environment, they can say God is with you.
2:28:28
They can say God is alive. They can say he's a mighty God.
2:28:37
Hallelujah, time is gone. I want to pray for you.
2:28:44
Listen, I have seen the power of God in my life.
2:28:48
I know what spiritual power can do.
2:28:52
We've not gotten there. We're still pressing.
2:28:56
But I have seen what the power of God can.
2:28:58
Do 1000 sermons can be preached with one genuine result 1
2:29:04
genuine result. The thing about the witness of
2:29:08
greater walks or mighty walks is that it can preach different
2:29:12
sermons at the same. Time.
2:29:14
To 1 The sermon he gets from your result is that there is a
2:29:18
God in heaven. To another, the sermon you will
2:29:22
hear is that God is almighty. To another, the sermon you will
2:29:28
hear is God loves you. To another, the sermon you will
2:29:32
hear is look what God can do with men who are yielded 1
2:29:38
genuine miracle. Imagine what happens in your
2:29:42
life by the time God turns your life around within one week.
2:29:48
Without exaggeration, one week doors just open from Monday to
2:29:56
Tuesday that by Sunday you can't wait to come here and say, what
2:29:59
in the world is this when someone wants to doubt you?
2:30:03
Listen, listen, listen. We must trust God for notable
2:30:07
results. Don't produce results that leave
2:30:11
people doubting and say Are you sure?
2:30:14
There are results that are clear, very clear.
2:30:18
When the Baron carry a child, a child is not a mirage.
2:30:21
When you hold that child and everybody sees it and they say
2:30:24
you didn't have a womb, that one is the mighty walkings of God.
2:30:33
When someone looks at you and says you are in debt, you would
2:30:35
die in debt forever. You are owing 10 million,
2:30:38
hundred million and you've already calculated that in three
2:30:41
years I will come out and by Friday you are out.
2:30:45
Out. Literally.
2:30:48
Don't doubt what I'm telling you.
2:30:50
I'm not a stupid person. There are economic principles.
2:30:55
We respect them. But there is a principle of
2:30:58
heaven. Ask Aaron what route his staff
2:31:05
found to board. The normal protocol is that you
2:31:09
plant it, water it, and wait. But not when God comes.
2:31:15
Can I tell you this, it is my desire that we not only become a
2:31:20
people of light in talk, but that our lives that as you are
2:31:25
released out of this place is like Samsung releasing the
2:31:29
foxes, sending them on fire. You go back to the hospital, you
2:31:35
are a doctor and you are looking at a patient and you can descend
2:31:38
that this is a demonic attack. This is not the issue of
2:31:41
surgery. And you keep your syringe and
2:31:45
lay your hands and say, I come as light.
2:31:54
Help them, please. I believe this with all my
2:31:57
heart. You've heard me tell you I do
2:32:00
not believe that anyone will meet me once and go back to say
2:32:05
no, no. Never.
2:32:09
It's not pride. It's the truth that these hands
2:32:18
are not just hands that carry food and carry things, the hands
2:32:22
of Jesus, that these words are not just air coming out from
2:32:27
you, it's the breath of the Spirit.
2:32:38
Go back with this consciousness. I am saved.
2:32:43
What? My territory.
2:32:44
Needs to be saved. And it will be by a display of
2:32:48
supernatural power. I don't know how true it is, but
2:32:52
I heard one time that it was Archbishop Benson in the Hosa.
2:32:57
Robbers blocked them on the road and they were shouting.
2:33:00
I said, come out, come out, come out and lie down.
2:33:03
And he came out carefully and looked at them.
2:33:06
And while they were shouting, he said, choose one of these three
2:33:09
things that must happen to you. Now, whether was it that they
2:33:13
should be, that they should die or something.
2:33:15
He he listed three things and said they should choose it.
2:33:18
They were shouting. Will you lie down?
2:33:20
And he said, no, no, I'm telling you now, choose one of these
2:33:23
three things that will happen, Man of God, that by Sunday or
2:33:35
Wednesday or whatever day of the week, someone who has already
2:33:40
been diagnosed of something just steps his feet even before the
2:33:44
service starts and his body is shaking.
2:33:46
He said, what is happening to me?
2:33:48
I don't know the name of what is happening.
2:33:50
And all of a sudden that age of long captivity lifted just like
2:33:56
that. I don't know why it is strong in
2:34:02
my heart to pray over people's finances.
2:34:05
I will pray it and I want you to believe it.
2:34:07
You've seen what God is doing. Listen, we're not lazy people
2:34:12
and we're not careless people, but don't let the world bend you
2:34:16
to only respect secular principles.
2:34:19
We have an advantage in this Kingdom.
2:34:21
We are not stupid people. Yes, there are economic
2:34:24
principles, but believe me when I tell you there, there are
2:34:27
heavenly principles. Did the prophet not say by this
2:34:31
time tomorrow, something you have been pursuing to the point
2:34:43
that people look at you and just pity you and say, do you know
2:34:45
what? You are not the only
2:34:47
businessman. Please rest and you have tried
2:34:49
and tried and one prophetic word comes upon you and by the next
2:34:54
day those who are looking for are now the ones looking for
2:34:56
you. That is a sign and a wonder.
2:34:58
Listen to the testimonies that these people share here.
2:35:02
Notice what happens. The doctors will ask questions.
2:35:05
Because you see people in the world are now beginning to
2:35:08
discern that Luco, this thing is not all about medicine.
2:35:11
This is not all about just just business and there is there is a
2:35:16
factor and that's what you want to promote.
2:35:24
In one week you sell 5 properties all what, one 1
2:35:29
billion whereas you just started this work in two weeks and
2:35:34
people say what in the world is this said me, I'm not, it's not
2:35:37
like I'm a serious agent. Somebody just said I should
2:35:39
come. What is it about you?
2:35:43
And you will tell them, Let me tell you what is about me.
2:35:47
There is one who is mightier than me, Jesus.
2:35:51
You see, that is the goal. The person lives with a renewed
2:35:55
orientation. Because until his encounter with
2:35:58
you, there are people who don't believe in anything God.
2:36:01
They say it with sarcasm. Don't mind all these church
2:36:04
things. They are just a bunch of
2:36:05
unserious people. Use your brain, I agree, but use
2:36:10
your brain alone. You will be in trouble.
2:36:12
Not in our world today. Those who look like they are
2:36:15
using their brain alone have not told you what they do when you
2:36:18
are sleeping. Don't you dare believe that the
2:36:23
only thing they are using is their brain.
2:36:25
There is a threshold of results that when you see, you know that
2:36:28
the energy for that result was outsourced from a realm higher
2:36:31
than this realm. So don't allow people see that
2:36:35
one. Just fool you and say I just use
2:36:37
my brain alone. Some of them are assisted by
2:36:40
demons and they don't know the devil is escorting them.
2:36:42
You will soon give them the bill.
2:36:45
I say you think I was working for you for nothing.
2:36:50
I pray for you in the name of Jesus Christ, by the power that
2:36:55
raised Christ from the dead. Anyone here who is in any kind
2:36:59
of financial hardship, in the name that is above all names, I
2:37:04
call upon my God this week coming.
2:37:07
May my God surprise you. May my God surprise you.
2:37:13
May my God surprise you. May my God surprise you.
2:37:18
May my God surprise you. Yeah, me.
2:37:28
Where you have seen weakness and limitations, Where your results
2:37:33
are just human and scientific and logical, Nothing
2:37:37
extraordinary, nothing supernatural but Lacaposcadia.
2:37:42
Embrace the Lacaposcadia. I empower you by the Spirit of
2:37:47
the living God. Go and produce extraordinary
2:37:50
results. Go and produce supernatural
2:37:53
results in many history, in business, in governance, in
2:37:59
career, in family, in the name of Jesus.
2:38:05
Wonder working order of results in the name of Jesus Christ.
2:38:19
There are some of you here your family members are depending on
2:38:23
what God does in your life to. Acknowledge the Lordship of
2:38:27
Jesus in your presence. You've had them insult Jesus and
2:38:31
said this, your Jesus that does not have results.
2:38:34
Beginning from this week, in the name of Jesus, May God walk
2:38:38
wonders through your life that leads to the conversion of your
2:38:42
loved ones. May God walk wonders through
2:38:45
your life in the name of Jesus Christ.
2:38:51
Yeah, me. I pray for those in ministry,
2:38:55
prayer groups, prophetic ministries, evangelistic
2:38:58
ministries. You've not seen supernatural
2:39:00
results in your life. You are doing your best here.
2:39:04
And yes, county testimonies, nothing notable from this week.
2:39:08
By the God of heaven, I empower your hands, go with fire, go
2:39:14
with grace, produce extraordinary result.
2:39:33
And anyone who has refused to listen to you because they think
2:39:37
your life does not command the kind of result that will make
2:39:40
you worth listening to. In the name of Jesus, beginning
2:39:44
from this week. Beginning from this week, May
2:39:48
God do something in your life that will command the attention
2:39:52
of all who need to hear the gospel.
2:39:54
Through you. Listen Jeremy, the difference
2:40:02
between what I'm speaking over you and just the fueling of lost
2:40:08
and flesh is that what the grace you are receiving is not just
2:40:14
coming to glorify self. Remember, what you are receiving
2:40:20
is a grace that produces results so that your results will become
2:40:25
a witness. You have been the evangelist
2:40:28
alone. Let your result be an escort
2:40:30
with you so that both you and your result will be preachers.
2:40:37
Are you getting it now? When you say God lifts your
2:40:44
result, who should say God lifts?
2:40:46
And then both you and the territory will say I'm
2:40:49
listening. When you say God restores, let
2:40:53
your result also say God restores and the Lord walking
2:41:00
with them. The final prayer for you is the
2:41:06
backing that you need, the supernatural backing that you
2:41:10
need for exploits. I told you where in the days of
2:41:13
his. Power in the name of Jesus
2:41:16
Christ. May that marvelous hand of God
2:41:19
begin to back you in everything you do.
2:41:29
And if there is anyone here that the spirit of death is roaming
2:41:35
around your vicinity, you are having dreams, you are having
2:41:39
encounters that seem to suggest death, whether for you or your
2:41:43
loved ones, right now, in the name of.
2:41:46
Jesus Christ, we command that spirit from the realm of the
2:41:50
Spirit. Stay clear of this family now.
2:41:54
In the name of Jesus, I speak to you.
2:41:58
You shall not die, but live and declare the works of the Lord.
2:42:08
Help them. As you go out, you are
2:42:15
protected. As you come in, you are
2:42:19
protected. In the air you are protected.
2:42:24
Your children are protected in the name of Jesus Christ.
2:42:30
And hear me, whatever you have received that was given to you
2:42:35
with the intention of destroying you, I declare that the spirit
2:42:39
component of that gift that was empowered to destroy you, He
2:42:43
returns back to that. Devil in the name of Jesus.
2:42:54
In the name of Jesus Christ, let me make an altar call.
2:42:58
Thank you for your patience. Please stand.
2:43:00
Let's stand in honor to the altar call.
2:43:04
There's no point wasting your time.
2:43:06
You've heard the message. You need Jesus.
2:43:08
You need him fast. You need him now.
2:43:11
It is important to make this decision.
2:43:13
Remember is our year of marvelous light.
2:43:15
Let's minimize movement. We're done already.
2:43:19
There are people here who are saying apostle haven't heard you
2:43:22
preach and teach. I realize my need for Jesus.
2:43:26
Others are saying I believe in Jesus, but my life has gone
2:43:31
haywire. I need restoration for all of
2:43:34
those people. Wherever you are.
2:43:37
I'm going to count 1 to 5. Please hurry up.
2:43:39
We have just one minute for you very boldly, unashamedly come
2:43:43
and stand before Jesus. Let's celebrate them as they
2:43:46
come. I begin the counted now one.
2:43:50
Celebrate them as they come. Don't be afraid, don't be
2:43:52
ashamed. Come and stand before Jesus.
2:43:54
He's giving you a new beginning. 2 God bless you as you come.
2:44:02
Koinonia. Is this the best you can do for
2:44:03
them? God bless you, God bless you.
2:44:06
All the overflows please come. And those who are following
2:44:10
online, watching from your homes, your offices, here's your
2:44:14
opportunity to make Jesus, Lord of your life, come.
2:44:20
We're out of time, but come, come to Jesus.
2:44:28
He truly can give you a new beginning.
2:44:31
Apostle. I don't know if I'm saved or
2:44:32
not. I just know that I love church,
2:44:35
I love Jesus. I'm not sure.
2:44:36
Join them, join them quickly. Join them quickly.
2:44:40
Come to Jesus. We'll give you a new beginning
2:44:44
in the name of Jesus. Christ, thank you.
2:44:48
I salute everyone of you for making this noble decision.
2:44:52
The Bible declares that as many as will come to him, He will in
2:44:55
no wise castaway. I appreciate everyone of you for
2:44:59
the courage to come and make this noble decision.
2:45:05
May I request that you lift your right hands?
2:45:07
All of you lift it high above your head.
2:45:10
