Transcript
- 0:00That there are three biblical ways to open closed.
- 0:03Doors never. Forget this for the rest of your
- 0:05life #1. Is by the application of
- 0:09Kingdom. Principles keys.
- 0:11Many doors will already be opened by the.
- 0:14Application of keys. There are.
- 0:16Times that you may not need. Keys.
- 0:19But you need. People who are other side of the
- 0:21door, the. Ministry of Men, the Ministry
- 0:24of. Mercy and favor.
- 0:26But let me tell you the truth. Most.
- 0:28Of the doors. That represent defining moments
- 0:32in the lives of men are not an issue of.
- 0:35Key or men, they are issues of spirits.
- 0:40Spirits, the right key in the name of Jesus.
- 0:45My prayer for someone this year is that God will grant you grace
- 0:49to find the right key. Please shout a believing Amen.
- 0:54That God will. Grant you grace to find the
- 0:57right key. Many of you have been holding
- 1:01keys. But could it be that the key you
- 1:04have been holding is not for the door you are looking for and I
- 1:09will give you the. Keys.
- 1:10Of the Kingdom. The.
- 1:12Keys of the Kingdom. In most large houses, they put
- 1:17all their keys together, or at least maybe 1-1 each of the
- 1:21keys, and they put it together in a bunch and keep it somewhere
- 1:24safe. Is that true?
- 1:25Yes, so that you can have it within your reach.
- 1:30If it's the main door you are opening, you have it there.
- 1:33If it's the kitchen door, the bathroom door you have.
- 1:35It there. For most of us who have been
- 1:37given these keys, but because of carelessness, you scattered your
- 1:41keys like the bones in Ezekiel's.
- 1:43Valley. And you?
- 1:44Cannot construct it. Together to become something
- 1:47exceedingly great. This is the year God is granting
- 1:50you grace to gather them together.
- 1:53Hallelujah. The first way we open closed
- 1:57doors is through the use of the right keys.
- 2:02These talks of knowledge. These talks of understanding,
- 2:06these talks of. Faith.
- 2:08You need knowledge and you need understanding.
- 2:11It is my prayer and my determination this year to bring
- 2:15light like never before. Truth upon truth, line upon
- 2:19line, precept upon precept, here a little, there a little to the
- 2:23end that God will grant us grace, that with light will be
- 2:27able to rise. The Bible says that we are able
- 2:31to show the praises of Him that has called us from darkness into
- 2:35His light. Hallelujah #2 How do we open
- 2:43closed doors? Are you ready?
- 2:45The second way, according to Scripture, that closed doors are
- 2:48opened is by knocking. By knocking knocking here.
- 2:53Means obtaining help. From men through mercy and
- 2:58favor. Don't forget this.
- 3:00The second way that closed doors are open is by knocking.
- 3:05Every. Time you knock a door, it is
- 3:07because you do not have the power to open it yourself.
- 3:10If you have a key, you do not need anybody helping you.
- 3:13Are we together now? Once.
- 3:15You have a. Key.
- 3:16You do not need anybody helping you the key.
- 3:19Itself will. Open.
- 3:20In fact, sometimes you don't even need to speak the moment
- 3:23there is a key the door. Opens but the.
- 3:27Moment you do not have a key and you need that door open, another
- 3:32system that God put is to knock because.
- 3:35The one who opens has. Access to the door, but now you
- 3:39need entrance but you do not have the key.
- 3:42Is someone learning now Knocking Knocking talks about obtaining.
- 3:47Help from men. Through the ministry of mercy
- 3:51and favor. We already looked at Matthew 7
- 3:54from verse 7 to 8. The Bible says knock and it
- 3:58shall be open to you. You are not the one who will
- 4:00open it, it shall be open to you.
- 4:03There are doors that need to be open, but not by you directly.
- 4:07They must be open. For you.
- 4:09The most important thing is that they are open so that you will
- 4:12enter. At such points.
- 4:14Playing around with a key. Around the.
- 4:16Door that you don't have authority over will only waste
- 4:19your time. What you need to do is to knock.
- 4:22The Bible says in verse 8 for everyone.
- 4:24That knocked it. It shall be opened.
- 4:30Hallelujah. This is where the Ministry of
- 4:33Mercy and Favor comes. There are doors you need open by
- 4:38all means, but you may not. Have the spiritual capacity you
- 4:43don't. Have the.
- 4:43Key, but there are people that have the.
- 4:46Key. What you need to do is to master
- 4:48the art of knocking. Those who can knock will have
- 4:51many doors open. That is not credited to their.
- 4:54Personal efforts. There are people behind at the
- 4:57other side of that door. They have access to it.
- 5:01All you need to do is to learn how to knock.
- 5:04Is someone learning 2nd Corinthians 2 and verse 12,
- 5:10Second Corinthians 2 and. Verse 12.
- 5:13Furthermore. He said Paul was speaking now
- 5:16giving them a story. I just picked a verse that I
- 5:18found interesting there it says when I came to throw us to
- 5:22preach Christ. 'S Gospel.
- 5:24It says and the. Door was open.
- 5:26Unto me of the Lord who opened the door.
- 5:28For him the Lord, the door was open, but He.
- 5:32Never mentions using a key to open that door.
- 5:35He says it was open unto me. In fact, one last scripture,
- 5:38Revelations 3 and verse 20. Very popular Scripture.
- 5:41Revelations 320 Behold. I stand who is speaking here?
- 5:47Jesus standing at the door. Of your.
- 5:49Heart and knock. Because.
- 5:53Even though he's the. Creator of the ends of the earth
- 5:55when he created man. He made you a free.
- 5:58Moral agent that even though he's God, it becomes
- 6:01scripturally incorrect for him to budget into your life and.
- 6:05He's patient enough. If God knocks.
- 6:08You must learn how to knock. There are.
- 6:10Certain doors that. You will need to.
- 6:12Hide your pride and knock. This year.
- 6:14There are doors of grace, doors of power.
- 6:17Because it is. Only those who knock.
- 6:20That will have that door open. Is someone learning?
- 6:25Not every door. Every door may respond to keys,
- 6:28but you may not have the. Privilege of access.
- 6:30To every key, yet you need every door that should be open, open.
- 6:35So you must know how to knock. To knock requires patience.
- 6:40To knock requires persistence. Is someone learning?
- 6:43Now let's go to Luke 11 and finish up the scripture that we
- 6:48started. Now God is giving someone wisdom
- 6:53already. Matthew chapter, I mean Luke
- 6:59Chapter 11 from verse 7. Now remember our story.
- 7:09Where the guy? Began to knock and say please
- 7:11help me with three loaf of bread I want to give my friend and the
- 7:15man said trouble me not. The door is now shut and my
- 7:20children are with me. In bed.
- 7:22Are you saying that that door was positively closed for the
- 7:26man? And his.
- 7:27Children, but with respect to the one.
- 7:29Who needs? Help.
- 7:31That door needs to be opened, he said.
- 7:33I cannot. Rise and give thee What did the
- 7:36man do? I say unto.
- 7:40You though he will not rise and give him because he is his
- 7:43friend, yet because of his importunity.
- 7:47The word importunity is the word.
- 7:49Persistence. He.
- 7:50Said he will rise and. Give him as many.
- 7:53He asked for three. But he said you can even get
- 7:56more by knocking. Your intention.
- 8:00Was to get 3 loaf. But knocking is so powerful it
- 8:03can give you more. Knocking does not only give you
- 8:06a job, it can. Create a.
- 8:08Destiny for you is someone learning.
- 8:15Knock to everyone that knocks. Matthew 7, seven and eight when
- 8:21you read amplified it says ask and keep asking.
- 8:25Seek and keep seeking. It says knock and keep knocking
- 8:29and the door will be open unto you.
- 8:36Is someone learning knocking? Talks of obtaining help from
- 8:41men? Listen.
- 8:42As far as the opening of doors are concerned, you will need the
- 8:47ministry of mercy and the ministry of favor.
- 8:52The Ministry of mercy and the ministry of favor.
- 8:56There are many doors you will encounter in your life and your
- 8:59destiny that you may not have the key yet.
- 9:03That door needs to be opened. You will have to knock.
- 9:09If I come to your office, for instance, I will have to knock
- 9:13at the door and then you come and open.
- 9:15Is that true? When you open, it is your
- 9:17opening that gives me access. That means I must pray for
- 9:21something to happen to your heart for that door to be
- 9:25opened. The friend here said, I know you
- 9:27are my friend, but I'm sorry. Right now I'm in bed with my
- 9:30children. My apologies.
- 9:32Go away. And the man kept, May God put it
- 9:36in the heart of someone this year to rise up and sit with
- 9:40that every closed door is open over your life in the name of
- 9:45Jesus Christ. You heard some of the
- 9:48testimonies here. Let me tell you, I have taught
- 9:51you, and I will keep teaching you till it enters your spirit
- 9:54that all blessings come from God through man to man to man.
- 10:01Believe me, man can be used by God to open doors, doors very
- 10:06strange doors of opportunity. May that be your testimony.
- 10:12Are you ready for #3? How do we?
- 10:15Open closed doors. The third is by supernatural
- 10:19power, the third way. Doors are open.
- 10:24Is by the ministry. Of warfare.
- 10:27And power the. Supernatural power of God.
- 10:32Because there are. Doors, especially demonic.
- 10:35Doors that will not open except and unless force is engaged.
- 10:42Acts chapter 6 from verse 25. Acts chapter 6 and verse 25.
- 10:53Give it to us please. Acts 625.
- 11:01March 16, My Apology 1625 Acts chapter 16 and verse 25.
- 11:07And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed and sang on to God, and
- 11:14the prisoners heard them. There were many prisoners in
- 11:18that prison. Some were interested in going
- 11:21out, others were interested in remaining there.
- 11:23Paul and Silas said no way, we will not remain here.
- 11:28Verse 26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake in a prison,
- 11:36so. That the foundations.
- 11:38Of the prison. Were shaken.
- 11:40A key cannot do this one. There are a key can quietly open
- 11:44the door. But when it is supernatural
- 11:47power. Both the door, the foundation of
- 11:49the house. Must know.
- 11:50That it is God coming in the. Name of Jesus I prophesied to
- 11:53someone it. Is not only keys that will open
- 11:56some doors the great power, the power of God is about to swing
- 12:01open ancient doors. In the.
- 12:03Name of Jesus Christ give us that scripture so that the
- 12:11foundations of the. Prison were take.
- 12:14Were shaken. When it is the power of God, the
- 12:18doors do not. Open one by.
- 12:19One, he said, and all doors were open.
- 12:23No key but power. Don't you think keys are the
- 12:27only ways doors are open? When the power of God comes, it
- 12:32may not be the time of the steering of the water, but you
- 12:34will see, say stand up. You don't need to wait once per
- 12:37year. There is a supernatural
- 12:40dimension to opening doors. There are times when keys fail.
- 12:47There are times when the hearts of men fail at that time.
- 12:50Resort to the one who can send an earthquake.
- 12:53From heaven to the earth is not only a door that he opens, the
- 12:57Bible says the foundations of the prison.
- 13:04Hai bashama katoska brandege Bhatia Grande gala koska.
- 13:11And immediately, when it is God, it does not take time.
- 13:15Immediately, immediately. Not later, not next week, not
- 13:21next month, immediately. Hold on.
- 13:24Please, Please, ladies and gentlemen, think about this.
- 13:30I. Watch this sometimes in my own
- 13:35boring way. My apologies.
- 13:37I just, you know, sometimes I'm watching videos.
- 13:40I like to watch videos of demolitions of houses, large
- 13:44structures, and then sometimes this, this, you know, the, the,
- 13:50the. Machines that.
- 13:51Squeeze metals and just break them and I, I have never been.
- 13:56I get so amazed that a car. Will be put in that machine and
- 14:00in less than one minute it will squeeze it like a rug.
- 14:05I have seen many of. You here construction engineers.
- 14:08And you know that it can take 3 years, five years, 10 years, 30
- 14:13years to. Build a skyscraper.
- 14:15And in a moment, using explosives, you watch it come
- 14:18down. Everybody watch 9/11.
- 14:21In a moment it came down. When it is God, he has no time
- 14:27to come. Key by key the entire foundation
- 14:30must go down my. Deliverer is coming.
- 14:37My deliverer is. Standing by your.
- 14:44Deliverer. Is coming your.
- 14:47Deliverer is standing by. We have seen what happens when
- 14:55doors are open. A key can only open one door at
- 14:59a time. Listen, if there are 10 doors,
- 15:02you will have to go and open one.
- 15:04There are doors that you have to turn them three times and
- 15:08superior security doors like we have today.
- 15:11They use iris, fingerprints, all kinds of things.
- 15:14It will take a while. Many of you here into.
- 15:17Security and logistics. You don't if if you're.
- 15:20If you're you go to the. Bulk room.
- 15:21Of a bank, for instance, you're not going to.
- 15:23Turn the key. Two times for.
- 15:25It to be open no for some of you, your loved ones.
- 15:32Found the key. But the time it would take for
- 15:35that key to walk, they died trying to open that door.
- 15:38It was a right key, but all the things to engage.
- 15:41With respect to time, notice the character.
- 15:47Of the power. Of God.
- 15:49They prayed and they sank. God never called the jailer.
- 15:54God never acts the strength. Of the Foundation.
- 15:58Who designed it, that is. None of his.
- 16:00Business. They prayed and they sang and
- 16:04God said clear the way. In listen, listen.
- 16:08In Acts chapter 12, you see when Peter was bound hand and feet,
- 16:14it was an Angel that was sent. There was no earthquake.
- 16:18Prayers was made without season and an Angel came.
- 16:22He opened the doors and they went out.
- 16:25But when God? Came Who can stand against the
- 16:32Lord? No one can.
- 16:37No one will who can stand. Who can stand against the King?
- 16:44No. One can and no one will hear me.
- 16:54Let me. Speak to someone.
- 16:55This year your family is about to experience something that
- 16:59those who have been bound, I'm speaking prophetically, edge
- 17:04long captivities that have tied people down in the name of
- 17:09Jesus. The mighty warrior, the terrible
- 17:13one, will arise as a warrior that he is, and the foundations
- 17:18of many families will be rattled.
- 17:21Three thing that has not been planted by God must.
- 17:23Give way. All doors.
- 17:37All doors. When it is God, it must insist
- 17:41that all doors open. All doors.
- 17:44This is not a year to celebrate some doors and leave others.
- 17:48All doors. All doors mention some of the
- 17:52doors that must open. Thank God for the ones that
- 17:55opened last year. All doors, All doors someone is
- 17:59prophesying. For one minute.
- 18:02All doors. All doors.
- 18:11All. Doors by the.
- 18:16Spirit of the living God, Hallelujah.
- 18:24Hallelujah. A scripture just came to my
- 18:28spirit. I believe that should be
- 18:29George's 16th anniversary. Samson, although it was not a
- 18:33very nice story, unfortunately. But the Bible?
- 18:36Says Samson. Removed.
- 18:37The door of the gate. Look for it for.
- 18:39Us, yes. At me, he says he laid at
- 18:42midnight. The Philistines were gathering
- 18:44round. He said.
- 18:45I will not only you want to fight me, I will show you the
- 18:49one who has strengthened me. I will not only open the I will
- 18:52remove the door. The Bible says he removed the
- 18:56doors of the gate of the city and climbed the hill and kept it
- 19:00and sat there. Now you're ready to pray.
- 19:20Psalm 24, verse 7. Psalm 24, verse 7.
- 19:29Lift up your heads, not give me a key.
- 19:35This situation is not just about a key, not where is my destiny
- 19:39helper. Lift up your heads, O ye gates,
- 19:46and be lifted up the everlasting doors, that the King of Glory
- 19:53Hear me, hear me, please. Look up.
- 19:57Let me tell you what this means. There are doors that you try to
- 20:02enter and you try to use. A key.
- 20:05Ordinarily should open, but because there is a spirit behind
- 20:08it, even when you are using a key, it does not open.
- 20:12There are. Times that you.
- 20:14Knock a man. Should help you.
- 20:16And because there. Is a spirit.
- 20:17Their hearts are hardened like Pharaoh.
- 20:20And they will not open. The door to the job.
- 20:22The door. To that opportunity do.
- 20:24You know what God does? He says move.
- 20:26Let me be the. One to enter.
- 20:28Because you see question when God comes.
- 20:33As a savior, he knocks, but when he comes?
- 20:36As a warrior, he breaks understand this.
- 20:42There is Jesus the Savior who will knock at the door of your
- 20:45heart gently, but when it stands before obstacles, I sense the
- 20:53power of. God so strong in this place now.
- 20:55Shabaka Tosa laka baraka Tosh Crateka.
- 20:59Baraka Shabaka Laka Tosia. Lift up your heads.
- 21:07Ancient gates. Ancient gates, Ancient doors.
- 21:13Lift up your heads. Ancient doors.
- 21:18The King of glory. The King of glory.
- 21:22The King of glory. Hallelujah.
- 21:36Listen, we're about to pray. Pay attention now.
- 21:39Please look up. So I have taught you that there
- 21:42are three biblical ways to open closed.
- 21:45Doors never. Forget this for the rest.
- 21:47Of your life. Number one.
- 21:49Is by the. Application of Kingdom
- 21:51principles keys. Many doors will already be
- 21:55opened by the. Application of.
- 21:57Keys there are times. That you may not need keys, but
- 22:01you need people who. Are other side of the door the
- 22:04Ministry of Men? The Ministry of.
- 22:06Mercy and favor. But let me tell you the truth.
- 22:10Most. Of the doors.
- 22:11That represent defining moments in the.
- 22:14Lives of of men. Are not an issue of.
- 22:17Key or men, there are issues. Of spirits.
- 22:22Spirits. Nobody has.
- 22:27Ever. Risen from this.
- 22:28Family like that. Let.
- 22:29Let let us be the protectors of this covenant that anybody that
- 22:34must rise from this family must serve this idol.
- 22:37And if you. Now come and.
- 22:38Say you will serve the living God, that I in the name of
- 22:42Jesus, may the mighty warrior arise.
- 22:45Arise, Arise in power. Arise, arise in grace, Arise,
- 22:51arise in. Glory.
