What Seekest Thou? by Apostle Joshua Selman · Selah Media House

• 0:00
  Give Jesus a big, big, big hand clap and please, you may be
• 0:06
  seated. Hallelujah.
• 0:13
  Welcome to church. God bless you for being here
• 0:15
  tonight. Just a little housekeeping and
• 0:18
  we'll get to the ward. I want to start tonight by
• 0:22
  saying a very, very big thank you, and I'll tell you why.
• 0:32
  It's one thing to have people believe in you and believe in
• 0:38
  what you do and take you and whatever you do very seriously.
• 0:43
  And as a leader, when you find such people, you must be very
• 0:47
  vocal about communicating gratitude.
• 0:50
  Hallelujah. We've been on with our, you
• 0:54
  know, search for a very good property so that we can begin
• 0:59
  our own project as you know, and I decided to just make the
• 1:04
  announcement last week Sunday. And I have been in simple times,
• 1:11
  humbled and even broken by the participation, the response not
• 1:17
  just from Abuja, here literally across the nation and people
• 1:24
  have sent in, you know, proposed lands to see.
• 1:29
  I was very humbled when at least two people, in all fairness, I'm
• 1:33
  sure they are even here, who were willing to literally stop
• 1:40
  their project over acres of land, to carry it, you know, to
• 1:44
  give it, to hand it over to the ministry.
• 1:46
  I had to reject it and tell them, no, no, we're people of
• 1:49
  conscience in as much as we love the Lord, I think you'll be
• 1:53
  unfair for someone to be on his project and because of his love
• 1:58
  for the work, just cancel a project worth billions and
• 2:03
  billions of naira. But that's to tell you how far
• 2:06
  people have gone. We've been overwhelmed by calls,
• 2:10
  emails, everyone saying, look, we want to check out this land,
• 2:16
  check out this place, you know, let me talk to these FCT
• 2:19
  minister FCDA. And this is just to say thank
• 2:22
  you. Thank you so, so much.
• 2:24
  The Lord bless you in the name of Jesus.
• 2:29
  Second is to thank and bring a word to those who have been
• 2:33
  calling because there are people who think we have started the
• 2:36
  building project already and people have been calling all
• 2:40
  over the world wanting to be part of it.
• 2:43
  We have not started giving people an opportunity to sow
• 2:47
  into the building project where people of integrity, when we're
• 2:50
  going to start, I will do the announcement myself.
• 2:53
  Why am I saying this? So that scammers again will not
• 2:58
  take advantage of the sincerity of the people, especially for
• 3:01
  our global family. You can sow any seed you want to
• 3:04
  sow, but we have not started sowing particularly for building
• 3:11
  projects and all of that. Soon we will start and we will
• 3:14
  announce the account we'll be using and then officially we'll
• 3:19
  pray and give people an opportunity to sow.
• 3:21
  So if you want to sow any seed that's normal, you can go ahead
• 3:26
  and do that, you know, with our account.
• 3:28
  But if it is particularly for the building project, Please be
• 3:33
  patient until we make that announcement and pray.
• 3:36
  It's not so much about the money, it's about participating
• 3:41
  in the work of the Lord. So the prayer and the
• 3:43
  declaration is more important than even the giving.
• 3:47
  Are we together? Please, if anyone, I'm saying
• 3:50
  this now, especially for international community, if
• 3:53
  anyone calls you in the name of Apostle Joshua Salman or any
• 3:58
  staff or anyone in this ministry asking you to transfer money to
• 4:03
  them and they can take it to the account or telling you they are
• 4:07
  part of the finance department. I'm saying it now.
• 4:10
  Please know you are dealing with fraudsters, know that you are
• 4:13
  dealing with scammers. Are we together?
• 4:15
  We will never do that. To call you to say sending money
• 4:20
  maybe for prayer or whatever it is, it is a lie.
• 4:24
  Hallelujah. And then if for any reason I
• 4:27
  have to say this, if the Lord, of course, you will always find
• 4:31
  this. There are people who have, you
• 4:33
  know, been led by the Lord to be maybe give properties that they
• 4:37
  have pending on the blessing of the Lord.
• 4:40
  If for any reason you or anyone you know is interested in those
• 4:44
  kinds of things, please do meet the protocol and let me meet
• 4:48
  with them directly. We don't do these kinds of
• 4:50
  things by proxy. So anybody who tells you, please
• 4:54
  just give me the land documents. I know how to get it across to
• 4:58
  Apostle is still a thief, even if they are in Koinonia.
• 5:03
  Praise the name of the Lord. So I'm saying it straight to the
• 5:05
  point so that there is no confusion about it.
• 5:07
  We have to. We cannot allow the devil to use
• 5:11
  men to take advantage of the sincerity of people.
• 5:14
  Are we together praise the name of the Lord.
• 5:16
  So everyone this is God bless you.
• 5:19
  It is our corporate responsibility is not only for
• 5:22
  Joshua Salman, you know this now.
• 5:24
  So that if someone is calling you or calling any of your loved
• 5:27
  one and saying send money or send all of these things for
• 5:32
  building project or some orphanage somewhere.
• 5:35
  This is even the one that is popular.
• 5:37
  They will tell you there is an orphanage home somewhere.
• 5:39
  It is not true, it is not true. I repeat, it is not true.
• 5:43
  They are scammers, prayer for counseling, and they tell you to
• 5:48
  send money to some secretary somewhere and then they will
• 5:52
  pass the phone to me. That person praying for you as
• 5:55
  me is not a sincere person. Hallelujah.
• 5:59
  Praise the name of the Lord. So I think it's good that we
• 6:03
  just put that in place. And then finally this
• 6:08
  announcement is for those at the overflow, the overflow outside
• 6:16
  outside includes anywhere that is not within the auditorium
• 6:22
  inside here outside and you know by the road.
• 6:25
  As you know, we've exhausted this facility.
• 6:27
  We've done the best we can to manage people, but every time
• 6:31
  God brings increase we thank him.
• 6:33
  But with increase would you would need wisdom to manage the
• 6:36
  people. So #1 those outside we have put
• 6:39
  in place and we keep putting in place adequate security to make
• 6:43
  sure that lives and properties are protected.
• 6:47
  But then we have also perfected a strategy to be able to manage
• 6:55
  those outside when rain comes. There is.
• 6:59
  Still, there are still two extra.
• 7:02
  Auditoriums here that we did not occupy, we did not put people
• 7:06
  there so that whenever it is raining or about to rain in 10
• 7:11
  minutes, following the direction of the protocol and the security
• 7:16
  and the oceans, we can convey anyone no matter who to make
• 7:20
  sure that they are well seated within these auditoriums and
• 7:24
  they don't become victims of the rain.
• 7:26
  So those outside, I wanted to know that we're responsible
• 7:29
  ministry and in as much as you sit outside, provisions have
• 7:33
  been made so that if and when rain comes and meets you there,
• 7:39
  you can be sure that you will not be drenched outside.
• 7:42
  You will be very irresponsible of us as the ministry to allow
• 7:48
  you. So no matter what size, whether
• 7:50
  it's a miracle service, whatever it is, I can tell you safely
• 7:54
  that within 10 minutes, theoretically speaking, and in
• 7:58
  all fairness, it should not be more than 15 or so minutes, we
• 8:01
  should be able to safely convey everyone around.
• 8:04
  All you need to do is just obey the directive of the protocol,
• 8:08
  the security and the Austrian department.
• 8:11
  Are we celebrating Jesus again? Hallelujah, praise the name of
• 8:17
  the Lord. We're to start a new series
• 8:24
  tonight, but I've shifted it for next week so that it will give
• 8:29
  me room to teach and to discuss the things that I want to share
• 8:34
  tonight. Tonight's message will bring
• 8:39
  healing, will bring hope, will bring true freedom, and would
• 8:43
  bring deliverance. This is one of the messages that
• 8:48
  whether you are a Christian, you are a Muslim, you are a free
• 8:51
  thinker, you are serious with God, you are a backslider, It
• 8:56
  doesn't matter what category. Tonight's message will be most
• 9:00
  applicable to your life. So I wanted to pay attention and
• 9:04
  let's trust God to grant us wisdom.
• 9:06
  In the name of Jesus, Father, give me an encounter by your
• 9:09
  word. In the name of Jesus, please
• 9:11
  lift up your voice and pray. Give me an encounter By your
• 9:15
  word, the Lord appeared in Shiloh.
• 9:20
  Even by his word. Are you praying?
• 9:29
  One minute, Lord, grant me access to your.
• 9:34
  Word. In the name of Jesus Christ.
• 9:49
  In the name of Jesus Christ, Hallelujah.
• 10:00
  We'll look at 3 scriptures and then I'll begin my teaching.
• 10:05
  Ecclesiastes, chapter 12. Ecclesiastes chapter 12.
• 10:11
  We're reading the whole chapter. Remember now thy creator in the
• 10:14
  days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the
• 10:19
  years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them.
• 10:24
  Next verse. While the sun, or the light, or
• 10:28
  the moon, or the stars be not darkened, nor the clouds return
• 10:33
  after the rain in the day, when the keepers of the house shall
• 10:38
  tremble, and the strong men shall bow themselves, and the
• 10:42
  grinder cease, because they are few.
• 10:45
  And those that look out of the window be darkened.
• 10:49
  That's four. And the doors shall be shut in
• 10:51
  the streets, and the sound of the grinding is low.
• 10:56
  And he shall rise up at the voice of the bird, and all the
• 11:00
  daughters of music shall be brought low. 5 And when they
• 11:05
  shall be afraid of that which is high and fierce shall be.
• 11:09
  In the way. And the almond tree shall
• 11:12
  flourish, and the grasshopper shall be a burden.
• 11:15
  And desire shall fail, Because man goeth to his long home.
• 11:21
  And the mourners go about the street.
• 11:24
  The six or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden ball be
• 11:29
  broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel
• 11:33
  broken at the cistern. 7 He says, Then shall the dust return
• 11:38
  to the earth as it was, and the Spirit shall return unto God,
• 11:43
  who gave it vanity upon vanities, sayeth the preacher
• 11:50
  all. Is.
• 11:51
  Vanity verse 9 and moreover, because the preacher was wise,
• 11:57
  he still taught the people knowledge yeah he gave good heed
• 12:01
  and sought out and set in all the many proverbs.
• 12:06
  The preacher sought to find out acceptable words, and that which
• 12:10
  was written. That which was written was
• 12:14
  upright, even words of truth. Verse 11.
• 12:18
  The words of the wise are as gods and as nails fastened by
• 12:22
  the masters of assemblies, which are given from 1 shepherd.
• 12:29
  And further by this my son, be admonished.
• 12:32
  Pay attention now of making many.
• 12:35
  Books. There is no end, and much study
• 12:38
  is a weariness of the flesh. 13 Let us hear the conclusion of
• 12:45
  the whole matter. Fear.
• 12:47
  God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of
• 12:56
  man. Last verse.
• 12:58
  For God shall bring every walk into judgment, which with every
• 13:04
  secret thing, whether it be good or it be evil.
• 13:11
  The Lord help us in the name of Jesus.
• 13:15
  Next verse. Proverbs chapter 30 will read
• 13:21
  from verse 1415 and 16. Proverbs chapter 30 will read
• 13:30
  1415 and 16. Are you still here?
• 13:34
  There is a generation whose teeth are as swords, and their
• 13:40
  jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from of the earth, and
• 13:45
  the needy from among men. The hostage had two daughters
• 13:52
  crying. Give, give.
• 13:54
  There are three things that are never satisfied.
• 13:58
  Yeah, four things say not it is enough.
• 14:04
  What are they #1? The grave.
• 14:07
  Never says enough #2 The barren womb never says enough number.
• 14:14
  3. The earth that is not filled
• 14:17
  with water never says enough, and #4 the fire that saith not
• 14:24
  it is enough. Father, help us and give us
• 14:26
  understanding in the name of Jesus Christ.
• 14:31
  The assignment of a man of God is to bring God's people into
• 14:37
  different dimensions of spiritual intelligence In a
• 14:41
  house like this, we are mandated to ensure that believers are.
• 14:47
  Taught the various facets of Kingdom living, the first being
• 14:53
  the knowledge of God and the knowledge of the things that
• 14:56
  pertain unto. God.
• 14:58
  The next being understanding the mysteries of the Kingdom, the
• 15:02
  principles of the Kingdom that make for an excelling life, the
• 15:07
  principles that make for empowerment, the principles that
• 15:11
  make for results, because there is an expression of effective
• 15:15
  living that comes as the power of personal results.
• 15:21
  But then, in the midst of all these dimensions and all these
• 15:27
  pursuits, it is also important to every once in a while, bring
• 15:33
  in superior wisdom that helps people to manage their lives
• 15:38
  effectively and that would help people to live lives of meaning,
• 15:45
  lives of purpose, lives that at the end of it they would not
• 15:49
  regret and wonder, what have I lived my life for?
• 15:53
  Hallelujah. The subject of purpose is one
• 15:56
  that the body of Christ is not. In confusion or in ignorance,
• 16:00
  over pulpit after pulpit, book after book, different people
• 16:06
  have taught on the subject of purpose and destiny.
• 16:10
  I remember many years ago listening to a very powerful
• 16:13
  message by Doctor Miles Monroe. He preached that message.
• 16:16
  In South Africa and he spoke about 5 questions that every man
• 16:23
  must ask himself. I may not remember the whole of
• 16:28
  the questions. What I remember, question number
• 16:30
  one is who am I? I remember him saying every man
• 16:35
  born of a woman must within his lifetime be able to answer that
• 16:39
  question. Who am I?
• 16:43
  I only remember the first and the last question.
• 16:46
  I may not remember the other three.
• 16:47
  There are five in all. The last question is where am I
• 16:51
  going to? Who am I and then where am I
• 16:56
  headed for when I wake up in the morning?
• 16:58
  What is the objective behind my pursuit, my drive, and all of
• 17:03
  these things? In School of Ministry, there is
• 17:07
  one of our courses called Personal Transformation, and I
• 17:11
  teach there about the graph of life, helping men to understand
• 17:16
  to the brevity of life and how to live effectively, and I've
• 17:21
  done a few teachings along that line.
• 17:25
  I think if I were not a preacher and if I were not a Christian, I
• 17:30
  probably would have been a philosopher.
• 17:32
  I love to think intuitively, to think and look at life from a
• 17:40
  logical standpoint and from a standpoint of value.
• 17:43
  What is life about? Why do we wake up in the morning
• 17:47
  and sleep late in the night? I have the privilege of
• 17:51
  traveling a lot because of my schedules and my
• 17:53
  administrations, and there are cities I travel to in this
• 17:57
  nation and even around the world.
• 17:59
  I am surprised that people don't sleep.
• 18:02
  At any time you go to that city, someone is moving and driving
• 18:06
  and laughing and selling and smiling.
• 18:08
  In fact, there are regions where the moment it is night, that's
• 18:12
  why that's when other people wake up, this music playing,
• 18:15
  people are enjoying themselves, restaurants are warming or
• 18:18
  cooking food are fresh, not even warming one that they had not
• 18:22
  all kinds of things. There are regions you go and you
• 18:24
  hear someone shout in the middle of the night calling passengers
• 18:27
  and they are coming. Hallelujah, so.
• 18:35
  I I have seen a bit of the the interesting thing in life.
• 18:40
  I have seen people wake up in the morning.
• 18:43
  And sleep late in the night. I've seen people aspire for so
• 18:48
  many things by reason of what I do.
• 18:50
  I'm always praying for people who are trusting God.
• 18:54
  For, you know, new heights, new levels, new dimensions in life,
• 18:59
  whether it is financially, whether it is in government and
• 19:03
  politics, academics and all of that.
• 19:06
  And I am amazed at how our needs do not seem to end.
• 19:12
  So you meet a young boys in secondary school and the need of
• 19:16
  that person and his desire, his craving, his prayer, and even
• 19:21
  his frustration comes from the desire to probably finish
• 19:24
  secondary school, write his exams, pass jam.
• 19:27
  And you see the gentleman depressed and you tell him what
• 19:30
  is the source of this depression?
• 19:31
  And he says this jam, I want to pass it.
• 19:33
  Now you ask one who is already in the higher institution of
• 19:37
  learning and his desire is to pass his exams, defend his
• 19:41
  project and. Graduate.
• 19:43
  And then the one who graduate will tell you, I want to go
• 19:46
  further. I'm trying to secure a
• 19:48
  scholarship to go for master's or PhD and all of that.
• 19:52
  And you ask a young man, he would tell you my desire now is
• 19:55
  to marry. A desire now is to marry.
• 19:58
  You ask the one who is married. They tell you the devil is a
• 20:01
  liar. I must have children.
• 20:04
  Are we together? Then the one who has children,
• 20:08
  their desires change and they tell you thank God for girls.
• 20:11
  What I think we need to add boys to this list.
• 20:14
  And the same depression the person had when he was small has
• 20:18
  been. Changing or remaining the same,
• 20:21
  using different different needs. And then you ask the one who is
• 20:29
  staying with his parents. And his desire and frustration
• 20:32
  is I'm no longer a child, I need to get out of this house.
• 20:35
  Then he gets out and smuggles himself to a small room and
• 20:39
  after a while his desire is to have a bigger house.
• 20:41
  Then he gets tired of being a tenant and he will tell you my
• 20:44
  new desire. The source of this, my
• 20:46
  frustration and wrinkling my face is that I want to start
• 20:50
  building. You ask the one who now has
• 20:59
  children and their desire is to have these children grow and
• 21:03
  become responsible. 1011 years later, same frustration.
• 21:07
  But now the basis for that frustration is I didn't realize
• 21:11
  having so many children would require so much money for fees.
• 21:15
  That becomes another journey. Later you ask them and they say,
• 21:19
  I can't imagine that I suffered and went through this only to
• 21:22
  give birth to a foolish child. This child is 18 years old and I
• 21:26
  almost regret giving birth to this child.
• 21:28
  And remember the same person. Look at all the various
• 21:32
  transitions. Same frustration.
• 21:36
  Then you ask the one who gets a job and is happy, gives
• 21:39
  testimony six months later, he said.
• 21:41
  I don't understand this. What kind of failure is this?
• 21:44
  I didn't offend anybody. This is an office.
• 21:47
  I rejoice. It came by prophecy.
• 21:49
  I need promotion. Same frustration.
• 21:53
  Pay attention and then you find one who has gotten the job and
• 22:00
  the promotion. Now the promotion causes trouble
• 22:03
  between the couple because now their salaries are similar and
• 22:07
  it looks like the money says so now that God has lifted you and
• 22:10
  not a frustration that has come as a result of that lifting and
• 22:16
  then. The frustration would soon
• 22:18
  change when they go to the hospital and they say it looks
• 22:21
  like there is a lump or a growth in your body.
• 22:26
  How old are you? I'm 55, was suspecting prostate
• 22:31
  all of a sudden. The prostration that was there
• 22:35
  when he was young now returns. But a different reason is the
• 22:39
  sponsor. So I'm going to die.
• 22:46
  You would think that with all of the achievements, the
• 22:50
  frustrations should diminish. You would go to the House of a
• 22:54
  very wealthy man and turn left and right and see everything you
• 22:59
  desire and aspire for. And yet that man is still
• 23:03
  looking for something. And you are asking, what are you
• 23:05
  still looking for? And the man will say something
• 23:08
  like, I can give up all these things you see, for what I am
• 23:12
  looking for. And he's still frustrated.
• 23:15
  Remember when he made his first million?
• 23:17
  Remember when he made his first billion?
• 23:20
  He thought it would give him that peace and satisfaction.
• 23:23
  And even in the midst of plenty, remember the first time the man
• 23:28
  boarded a flight? Coming from a background of
• 23:31
  penury and poverty, he was happy and smiling.
• 23:34
  Now he may probably have his own private charter or his private
• 23:38
  jet. And in the midst of it, there is
• 23:41
  still that frustration. How about those who hang and
• 23:44
  write letters with billions piled in their accounts and
• 23:48
  shoot themselves or hang themselves?
• 23:51
  As painful as death is that a state can come in a man's life
• 23:55
  where it seems better to die than to live.
• 24:01
  Are we still together? How about a young preacher on
• 24:05
  campus catching the fire, praying for 8 hours, praying for
• 24:10
  9 hours, learning about Greek and Hebrew as a new experience.
• 24:14
  And my goodness, this gentleman is now beginning to step into
• 24:18
  some kind of dimension of grace. Now they invite him for small
• 24:22
  fellowships. And the power of God is moving.
• 24:25
  This young man is rediscovering a whole new world about his
• 24:28
  destiny. Happy and excited for a while,
• 24:32
  then campus days are over and then he desires to start
• 24:36
  ministry. Another frustration comes.
• 24:38
  Where do I get venue? Where do I get money?
• 24:41
  And then he starts ministry. 30 years later, he's angry,
• 24:45
  frustrated, looks back, and he does not even know whether he
• 24:49
  was called or not. What are we really looking for?
• 24:56
  Please, I wanted to listen to this message.
• 24:58
  The Lord put it in my heart to share.
• 25:02
  For the terrorists or one who would stand and kill people and
• 25:07
  rob a bank and rob people, what are they really looking for?
• 25:14
  For the preacher who has a large congregation and yet continues
• 25:20
  to pray and say, God give me increase.
• 25:22
  What are we really looking for? For the one who has successful
• 25:29
  children, all graduates, all successful, all working, and
• 25:34
  they still have prayer requests, what are they looking for?
• 25:39
  The one who just made his first billion in dollars and he's
• 25:42
  still looking for something, still submitting proposals from
• 25:46
  state to state, nation to nation, region to region,
• 25:50
  fighting and arguing over wars, fighting and arguing over
• 25:56
  contracts. What is he looking for?
• 26:00
  For the man of God who has been in the faith working with God
• 26:03
  for 40 years and he's still fasting and praying, what is he
• 26:08
  looking for? For one who has seen the power
• 26:12
  of God move in his life in uncommon, unimaginable
• 26:17
  dimensions, what is he looking for?
• 26:20
  You will thank me for the message that you are hearing
• 26:23
  tonight. This message will give your life
• 26:25
  meaning. It will give your life
• 26:27
  perspective and indeed it will give you peace.
• 26:30
  Are we learning? The Bible says there are four
• 26:33
  that never say enough. It is not within their there is
• 26:38
  nothing. They never attain any state
• 26:41
  where they can say I have had enough.
• 26:48
  I've had the honor and the privilege of studying very
• 26:51
  successful people and successful systems.
• 26:55
  I didn't want to be a failure myself.
• 26:57
  I hate failure. Hallelujah.
• 27:00
  And I knew that for you to succeed in life, you would need
• 27:05
  knowledge, and indeed, a lot of it.
• 27:08
  And so I submitted myself to learning.
• 27:10
  I still do. And I'm humbled by the things
• 27:13
  that I've learned through the years, from books, from men,
• 27:17
  from materials, and even from my own experiences.
• 27:22
  I used to think that the greatest tragedy in life was
• 27:27
  failure, that the worst that can happen to a man in life is that
• 27:34
  that man fails, fails to achieve his or her dreams.
• 27:38
  But I would soon discover that there is another tragedy that is
• 27:42
  greater than failure, and it's not death.
• 27:48
  This discussion is not about those who are dead.
• 27:51
  This discussion is about those who are alive.
• 27:55
  What is worse than failure? I will tell you there is one
• 28:00
  thing that is worse than failure is called success without
• 28:04
  fulfillment. That success without fulfillment
• 28:12
  would bring a greater sting, a greater frustration than even
• 28:18
  failure. It is possible for a man to be
• 28:23
  successful and never be fulfilled.
• 28:28
  In my studies and my learning about God and learning about
• 28:34
  systems, learning about principles of posterity,
• 28:38
  principles of stability in the lives of people and in
• 28:43
  organizations, I have found out that the subject of fulfillment
• 28:48
  is one that many people have downplayed to their detriment.
• 28:52
  There are many, many, many people today who are victims of
• 28:57
  the absence of fulfillment, even though successful.
• 29:05
  The greater tragedy, greater than failure is a life of
• 29:10
  success that does not have fulfillment.
• 29:16
  In Genesis chapter 37, when you read from verse 15, the Bible
• 29:21
  talks about Joseph. I just want to borrow a concept
• 29:23
  there and then I'll begin my teaching that Joseph was sent to
• 29:28
  go and look for his brothers. And the Bible says and a certain
• 29:34
  man found him, the him being Joseph now.
• 29:37
  And behold, the Bible says he was wandering in the field,
• 29:42
  wandering in the field. And the man asked him saying
• 29:46
  What seekest thou? He saw him wondering who is this
• 29:54
  young man, very visionary. But you are wondering in
• 29:57
  frustration. It seems to me your body
• 30:00
  language and your actions suggests to me that you are
• 30:03
  looking for something. I see your determination, I see
• 30:06
  your press. It seems you're going back and
• 30:09
  forth. You're waking up in the morning.
• 30:12
  I see you're going to have a master's, you're going to have a
• 30:15
  PHDI see you're attending conferences and trainings.
• 30:19
  They suggest to me that whilst you are wandering around there
• 30:23
  is something you are looking for.
• 30:24
  The question is what seekers down?
• 30:30
  What are you looking for that has made you travel to US for
• 30:35
  trainings? Travel to Canada for trainings
• 30:39
  that even in old age you are not ashamed to go back to school
• 30:43
  again. What seekers down, what is that
• 30:48
  that you are looking for that makes you to hit and detest
• 30:52
  failure? So much books upon books.
• 30:56
  You have a library that is full of them and anything that looks
• 31:01
  like useful information. You are like a sponge absorbing
• 31:04
  anything that seems to propose a greater life.
• 31:08
  Please keep that scripture there. 3715 A certain man found
• 31:14
  him, and behold, he was wandering in the field, and the
• 31:19
  man asked him a simple question. What seekers thou?
• 31:26
  As simple as this question is, ladies and gentlemen, you can
• 31:30
  spend your entire life trying to search for the answer.
• 31:35
  You would think you have found the answer and 10 years added to
• 31:39
  your life you would discover what you found was not really
• 31:42
  the answer. Many people have gone to their
• 31:44
  graves unable to answer this question.
• 31:47
  What are you looking for? What is that which motivates
• 31:51
  you? Why are you doing the things
• 31:53
  that you are doing? There are people who retire
• 31:55
  respectfully speaking from service and they cry and beg and
• 31:59
  say retain me again, even though the company and the organization
• 32:03
  is saying you've tried yourself for 3035 years, go and rest.
• 32:07
  They say no, I don't want to rest.
• 32:08
  What seekers doubt when a patient runs around looking for
• 32:15
  a doctor traveling from nation to nation?
• 32:18
  What seekest down? Write this down, please.
• 32:30
  Understanding the subject of fulfillment.
• 32:37
  Understanding the subject of fulfillment is one of the
• 32:43
  pillars for living an effective life on Earth.
• 32:48
  Understanding the subject of fulfillment is one of the
• 32:53
  pillars for living an effective life on Earth.
• 33:01
  Hallelujah, I took out time to learn the subject of fulfillment
• 33:08
  because I do not want to live a useless life.
• 33:11
  In as much as you love me, in as much as you believe that I'm a
• 33:15
  man of God sent from God, in as much as you have been blessed by
• 33:19
  the privilege of the investment of grace upon my life.
• 33:22
  Do you know it is possible to live a life impacting people
• 33:27
  whilst you are frustrated? Do you agree with me on that?
• 33:31
  There have been many people on earth, in the secular and even
• 33:35
  in church, who killed themselves in the presence of overwhelming
• 33:40
  impact, traveling from pillar to post, blessing people.
• 33:45
  While everybody's calling you a blessing, you are dying in total
• 33:50
  frustration. In fact, I will tell you this.
• 33:53
  Psychologists will tell you that some of the people who are
• 33:56
  perceived to be the most successful people are about the
• 33:59
  most frustrated people. They live lonely lives.
• 34:03
  They are on drugs. They have to live off therapy.
• 34:07
  After therapy and you are surprised.
• 34:09
  You go to their offices and you see awards day and night and yet
• 34:16
  those people can wake up 1 morning and literally die of
• 34:21
  frustration. It means there is something that
• 34:25
  if we do not understand, we stand the risk of living a life
• 34:29
  that is extremely successful. But and in the midst of our
• 34:34
  success, we find out that we live defeated lives that do not
• 34:39
  count as far as fulfillment is concerned for someone shout no
• 34:43
  way in the name of Jesus Christ. I've met very old people.
• 34:52
  I like to see elderly people, especially those who have done
• 34:55
  something notable. I believe they have profound
• 34:58
  wisdom and I can learn from them.
• 35:00
  And I will tell you the truth, a number of them, even in old age,
• 35:03
  in the course of our discussion, have been very opened to tell
• 35:07
  me, apostle, I did this, I that, I did that, I traveled here, I
• 35:12
  traveled that me, some of them preachers, some of them business
• 35:15
  people. And they would tell me that
• 35:17
  there was still a longing in their hearts that they felt.
• 35:20
  Like they did not do enough. What is fulfillment?
• 35:27
  Please write this down. I define fulfillment as the
• 35:43
  satisfaction. Please write it.
• 35:46
  I define fulfillment as the satisfaction that is derived
• 35:51
  from knowing that you have lived your life effectively.
• 35:57
  The fulfillment, the satisfaction, and the joy.
• 36:02
  You may want to add the satisfaction and the joy that is
• 36:08
  derived from knowing that you have lived your life
• 36:12
  effectively, serving the purposes of God, and being a
• 36:17
  blessing to humanity. Fulfillment is the satisfaction
• 36:23
  that is derived from knowing that you have lived your life
• 36:28
  effectively. Serving the purposes of God and
• 36:33
  being a blessing to humanity is called fulfillment.
• 36:39
  Now I want you to tighten your seat belt and sit quietly as I
• 36:45
  teach you something that I truly believe will revolutionize your
• 36:49
  life. I have thought a bit on it here,
• 36:53
  but then I want to teach this in detail.
• 36:56
  It was a miracle and it was a deliverance to my own life from
• 37:00
  living a life that was futile, filled with only success,
• 37:04
  without fulfillment. I want to live a life that is
• 37:07
  both successful and a life that is fulfilled by every standard.
• 37:12
  Are you ready now? There are 6 fundamental human
• 37:17
  needs. Write it down, please.
• 37:19
  There are 6 fundamental human cravings.
• 37:23
  There are modern needs. They are desperate cravings that
• 37:28
  every man provided. You are alive.
• 37:32
  It is the craving that defines the motivation that drives
• 37:37
  everything that you do in your life, whether from a spiritual
• 37:41
  context, whether from an economic context, whether from a
• 37:45
  sociological context. All of us as the human species
• 37:49
  are driven essentially by these 6 needs.
• 37:54
  But believe me, they are modern needs.
• 37:56
  They are cravings that literally your sense of fulfillment from a
• 38:01
  human standpoint depends on your These cravings satisfied that if
• 38:07
  at any point in your life these cravings are not met and
• 38:12
  represented in your life, it will only spell utter
• 38:16
  frustration. No matter what line of work or
• 38:21
  career, whether you are a preacher, an apostle, a prophet,
• 38:25
  a businessman, an academician, a family man, young, old.
• 38:30
  Male, female, educated, uneducated, black, white.
• 38:34
  It does not. Matter.
• 38:35
  This is a reality that is common to us all.
• 38:39
  Six fundamental human cravings. Human needs, Are you ready?
• 38:44
  Please write them down #1 The need for security, please write
• 38:50
  it down. Every human born of a woman has
• 38:55
  this craving from within them, The need to feel secured,
• 39:01
  physically secured, emotionally secured.
• 39:05
  Now this needs vary based on gender, based on age, based on
• 39:09
  levels of exposure, but ultimately all of us have the
• 39:14
  same need. It is just the various decrease
• 39:17
  of this needs that now define what we call our personality
• 39:23
  security. Men will give up anything to
• 39:27
  feel secured even if they are not secured.
• 39:32
  Sadly and unfortunately, we've had several things happen across
• 39:36
  Kaduna. For those of you who are in
• 39:38
  Nigeria here, the mayhem that was unleashed on people, so
• 39:43
  unfortunate. It's been quite a tragic 2 week
• 39:46
  especially for that region and you can imagine so everyone
• 39:50
  within that region would crave for security and the moment you
• 39:53
  see a military man wearing a uniform, you are happy to see
• 39:56
  that person. Is that true?
• 39:57
  Because that person represents? Security number 2, The second
• 40:05
  human craving is the need for variety or dynamism.
• 40:10
  Please write it down. Variety or dynamism.
• 40:16
  This is the reason why anything that is new especially in the
• 40:20
  mass media cells because we like to know what is the breaking
• 40:25
  news, what is the new information.
• 40:28
  People hate boredom. It's not It's not given to the
• 40:32
  human species to endure boredom indefinitely.
• 40:37
  People like things that create variety.
• 40:39
  That's why people find special moments and celebrate them.
• 40:43
  That's why you do not wear the same color of cloth everyday for
• 40:47
  instance. That is the reason why you you
• 40:50
  are tired of the house that you've been living in and you
• 40:52
  will want to move to another house is a craving for variety.
• 40:58
  Companies based on this awareness reinvent their
• 41:02
  products, reinvent the packaging of their products and just by
• 41:06
  reinventing the packaging of their products can rise to
• 41:09
  millions of dollars and billions of dollars simply because they
• 41:13
  satisfied this craving for variety.
• 41:16
  Same product. They don't have to change
• 41:19
  anything as far as the product is concerned, but they give it a
• 41:22
  presentation that was new and appealing.
• 41:26
  Are we together? #3 The third craving that is in
• 41:33
  every human being is the need for significance.
• 41:37
  Write it down, please. This is a very serious one,
• 41:40
  especially to men. Significance Concept of respect
• 41:48
  As we know the concept of honor, we know that is embedded in most
• 41:54
  of the masculine gender, if not all came from the need for
• 41:59
  significance. When you bow down and you greet
• 42:07
  me and say good afternoon Sir, why am I excited?
• 42:10
  As you're bowing down? When you kneel down and say good
• 42:14
  afternoon, Ma, it is. It gives people a perception of
• 42:19
  significance. Are we together now?
• 42:23
  People crave for significance. They crave for it more than you
• 42:27
  can ever know. Preachers, parents, young
• 42:31
  people, business people, men, women, everyone.
• 42:35
  Significance people crave for respect, people crave for honor,
• 42:41
  and people crave for acknowledgement.
• 42:44
  You know what acknowledgement is to make sure you are aware of
• 42:49
  the extent of the worth of that individual and that you can
• 42:53
  attest to the fact that that individual is that valuable is
• 42:58
  called acknowledgement. People can go to.
• 43:01
  Any length. To be acknowledged businessmen,
• 43:06
  pastors, politicians have become ACT enemies for decades simply
• 43:11
  because someones pedigree was downplayed by not being
• 43:15
  acknowledged or not acknowledged properly.
• 43:25
  Are we together? If I sit on any of these
• 43:27
  beautiful seats, or I sit on the ground, or I sit on any white
• 43:32
  chair anywhere, what difference does it make in terms of in
• 43:36
  terms of my physical person? It may not necessarily make any
• 43:39
  difference, but it seems to communicate a sense of
• 43:43
  significance, a sense of acknowledgement, a sense of
• 43:47
  respect, a sense of honor. And you can't believe how people
• 43:51
  crave for it. In every occasion there is
• 43:58
  something called high table. High table is still table high.
• 44:07
  Now what is the difference between those who sit there and
• 44:10
  those who sit everywhere else? They can even eat the same thing
• 44:16
  in every flight. There's what is called first
• 44:18
  class, There's what is called business class and economy.
• 44:22
  These are various names that were invented to help manage and
• 44:27
  communicate the idea of significance.
• 44:33
  Are we together? You go to certain places and say
• 44:36
  this is a priority route, this is a regular route.
• 44:40
  All these names, VVIPVIP, you know, and all of these things,
• 44:45
  they are all, they are all various attempts.
• 44:51
  Please pay attention to what I'm teaching you.
• 44:53
  Significance you cannot imagine the degree to which you crave
• 44:58
  for. Significance is a craving that
• 45:01
  many people. It would take a lot of
• 45:04
  enlightenment to even be aware of the extent to which you need
• 45:07
  it #4 Are you ready for the 4th? The 4th craving, desperate
• 45:16
  craving of all humans is love and acceptance, the need to be
• 45:23
  accepted. Please underline that word
• 45:25
  acceptance. The opposite of acceptance is
• 45:30
  rejection. And go and ask any psychologist
• 45:34
  and any man of God who is serious with God and they can
• 45:37
  tell you the the the severe consequences of being in a
• 45:43
  position of rejection. Are we together?
• 45:48
  Love and acceptance? Please look up.
• 45:50
  Why do you think most people join occult groups?
• 45:55
  I can tell you go and ask most of these young people while in
• 45:59
  secondary school. Now unfortunately I don't mean
• 46:02
  called like village called groups.
• 46:04
  The one that you know these guys that move around and you ask
• 46:08
  them what what they are looking for.
• 46:10
  They will tell you I came from a family where nobody believed in
• 46:13
  me, nobody accepted me. And here is this group and they
• 46:17
  told me if they can scan my body and do all kinds of things, I
• 46:21
  will be accepted and they will endure such pain, provided it
• 46:26
  will provide acceptance. Hallelujah.
• 46:35
  People crave for love and people crave for acceptance.
• 46:41
  People have cried because those were shot at them.
• 46:45
  They were not accepted. People have cried because they
• 46:49
  did not give them employment. It was not about the employment
• 46:53
  or lack of it, but that it was communicated in a way that shows
• 46:57
  that you are rejected and they go back feeling things that have
• 47:00
  no business with that job. So is this how my life is going
• 47:04
  to be? Hallelujah.
• 47:07
  Praise the name of the Lord. Yes, there are sincere men and
• 47:12
  women who come seeking counseling from psychology,
• 47:15
  seeking counseling from men and women of God.
• 47:17
  And they say, look, I think I'm a beautiful lady.
• 47:20
  I think I'm a handsome man, and look at my life.
• 47:22
  Nobody has ever said good morning.
• 47:24
  Nobody has ever said good afternoon.
• 47:26
  What is making them feel that bad?
• 47:28
  The sense a longing for acceptance and the pain of
• 47:34
  rejection is someone learning #5 What is the 5th craving of all
• 47:41
  human beings? Growth and increase.
• 47:46
  People crave to grow. People crave desperately to
• 47:50
  grow. Every parent wants to see their
• 47:53
  child or their children grow. Every child wants to grow to
• 47:57
  become an adult. Parents.
• 48:00
  Many of you would see children, a young child who started
• 48:03
  walking and doing all kinds of things.
• 48:05
  And if the mother should leave her dressing space to that
• 48:10
  child, one day the child is going to surprise her.
• 48:12
  You will come and you see the child trying to put eyelashes,
• 48:15
  trying to put all kinds of things.
• 48:17
  The child is insisting and say I can't wait for 18 years is too
• 48:20
  long or 15 years or whatever. Let me make my attempt now.
• 48:24
  And the child who pinned himself into all kinds of things.
• 48:29
  The need and the instinct for growth.
• 48:32
  How about teenagers? You flog them and say be patient
• 48:35
  until you are 18 before you start driving.
• 48:37
  The same card that will be tired and packaged one day, but they
• 48:40
  will fight once they are 1716 that you will have to flog them,
• 48:45
  advise them, make them quote scriptures to stay in one place
• 48:49
  and wait for just one more year before they start driving.
• 48:53
  The need for growth, the need for growth, the need for growth.
• 49:04
  Especially in Africa, most people hate being called
• 49:07
  children. When a Sep is a very old man who
• 49:09
  says you're a child. But anybody who is maybe just a
• 49:12
  few years older than me, if he calls you a child, say look, you
• 49:14
  are older than me, but don't you dare call me a child.
• 49:17
  I'm not a child. Because there is something about
• 49:20
  our passion for growth. Even children now they don't
• 49:24
  call me a child. What are you?
• 49:27
  I'm not an adult, but I'm not a child.
• 49:29
  Anyway, everybody say growth. When someone holds a master's
• 49:39
  certificate or a PhD or another certification somewhere, why are
• 49:43
  they happy to celebrate those milestones?
• 49:46
  It gives them a perception of growth.
• 49:48
  Look to and verse 2052 even in fact, when you read from verse
• 49:52
  49 to 52, Jesus himself passionate about growth.
• 49:57
  The Bible does not leave us in the dark.
• 49:59
  He went as a teenager. The Bible says he was at the
• 50:03
  temple learning, building his mind, satisfying that need and
• 50:08
  that craving for growth. And the Father and the mother,
• 50:11
  Joseph and Mary went around looking for him.
• 50:13
  When they found him at the temple, he said unto them, How
• 50:17
  is it that he sought for me with not that I must be about my
• 50:23
  Father's business? Verse 50.
• 50:27
  The Bible says, And they understood not the same which is
• 50:29
  spoke unto them. 51 And he went down with them, and came to
• 50:34
  Nazareth, and was subject unto them, but his mother kept these
• 50:38
  things in our heart. 52 Popular Scripture and Jesus increased,
• 50:43
  say increased in wisdom, He increased in stature physically,
• 50:49
  He increased in favor with God and with men.
• 50:53
  Everybody say growth. Growth is very powerful.
• 50:56
  I do not know anybody, no matter how critical, who does not
• 51:00
  celebrate any major milestone in his life.
• 51:03
  People celebrate bad days. People celebrate anniversaries.
• 51:07
  Why? Because it culminates to growth
• 51:11
  as a man of God. If you have 10 members and God
• 51:14
  brings five more, you are careful to celebrate and say
• 51:18
  thank God for this. The concept of in gathering has
• 51:23
  come to stay in the body of Christ.
• 51:25
  Yes, because we want soul saved, but in truth in addition to
• 51:30
  that, it is the instinct for growth.
• 51:32
  Everything that is alive grows. Now, not to get you offended,
• 51:38
  there are children who have medical conditions that impede
• 51:42
  their growth in one area or the other or their overall stature.
• 51:47
  You find out that you can see a child who is 3 years old, four
• 51:50
  years old, and then maybe because of some deformity or
• 51:53
  some, you know, health issue, the child cannot grow properly.
• 51:57
  It is a concern to any responsible parent.
• 52:00
  Is that true? How many of you have seen
• 52:04
  children again, respectfully, who maybe they had to repeat
• 52:10
  certain classes, maybe primary one, Primary 2, and the child is
• 52:14
  there for three years, four years.
• 52:16
  And you find out that people come and say what kind of a
• 52:18
  child are you? You now say your colleagues are
• 52:21
  in primary 5 or something and you are still here.
• 52:24
  And the child feels bad because the child wants to increase.
• 52:28
  The child wants to grow. So #1 security number 2.
• 52:36
  Variety and or dynamism #3 significance, acknowledgement #4
• 52:44
  love and acceptance #5 growth and increase.
• 52:49
  Are you ready for the last #6 impact and contribution?
• 52:54
  The 6th craving in all humans, regardless who is the craving to
• 53:01
  know that your life is counting, that you are living an impactful
• 53:06
  life and you are contributing towards a cause.
• 53:12
  Let me tell you this. This 6th craving is so serious.
• 53:17
  This is one of the root causes of violence that is accelerated
• 53:24
  in many underdeveloped nations. Because most young people are,
• 53:30
  they want to be part of a cost, part of something.
• 53:33
  And because they are idle, there's nothing.
• 53:35
  The moment they see that there is something that catches the
• 53:38
  attention of media, everybody wants to be part of it.
• 53:41
  Whether it is election, whether it is whatever it is, they want
• 53:44
  to be part of anything happening.
• 53:46
  That there is that, that dopamine feeling of relevance,
• 53:50
  that feeling of knowing that I'm doing something, my life is
• 53:54
  counting for something. Hallelujah.
• 54:00
  There is nobody who does not want his life to count.
• 54:03
  I can tell you this, in all of the messages and all of these
• 54:08
  that people send, the most touching for me is Apostle.
• 54:12
  Thank you. I listened to your teaching.
• 54:15
  It changed my life. Now I love the Lord more.
• 54:18
  Now I'm passionate about the things of the Kingdom or your
• 54:22
  teaching has brought me knowledge.
• 54:24
  You know why it gives me joy. Yes, Jesus is glorified, but it
• 54:28
  gives me joy because I can through that text message, it
• 54:31
  can give me a basis to say, thank God, my life is counting.
• 54:38
  There is nobody who wants to leave us, a known entity, to
• 54:41
  know that your life is not counting.
• 54:44
  How many people have resigned from jobs because they felt that
• 54:47
  they were being underutilized. They felt there's nothing I'm
• 54:50
  doing here. I think I'm worth more in terms
• 54:53
  of impact than this is not about the salary.
• 54:56
  I'm not doing anything. I just sit down and sign
• 54:58
  documents. Whether I come to work or not,
• 55:01
  my salary is there. I don't think I am productive,
• 55:04
  they say. But what is really driving them
• 55:07
  is the fact that they want their lives to count.
• 55:11
  When we acknowledge people, we begin to list some of the things
• 55:15
  they have done that has blessed us.
• 55:17
  So, so, so, and so man. He has blessed me.
• 55:19
  He's changed my life as a businessman.
• 55:22
  He's mentored me as a lecturer, as a man of God.
• 55:26
  And you see the people rejoice and give glory to God.
• 55:29
  But then you can see that fulfillment because their lives
• 55:33
  count. Now I will tell you why I listed
• 55:36
  all of these things. All that we seek for, all that
• 55:47
  we look for, all that we work for, all that we pray for is
• 55:55
  hidden in these six things. Believe me when I tell you every
• 55:59
  single one prayer request written here during the miracle
• 56:03
  service, every single desire that brought you to the House of
• 56:07
  God, no matter how you'd want to twist it.
• 56:10
  Spiritual, from a psychological standpoint, is an attempt to
• 56:17
  draw into your life one of the six cravings.
• 56:22
  Let me repeat myself. All that we seek for, all that
• 56:27
  we look for, all that we fight for, all that we work for, and
• 56:34
  all that we pray for is hidden in this six psychological needs.
• 56:42
  This is very powerful. Write this down, please.
• 56:47
  Nothing physical. This is a sad news, but it's
• 56:51
  also a deliverance for someone now.
• 56:53
  Nothing physical or material in itself can ever give you
• 56:59
  fulfillment. Nothing physical or material in
• 57:04
  itself can ever give you fulfillment.
• 57:08
  What a deliverance, What a deliverance.
• 57:10
  What a deliverance that nothing physical or nothing material in
• 57:16
  itself can ever give you fulfillment.
• 57:25
  Back to my illustration when I started teaching, remember the
• 57:29
  young boy, remember the married man.
• 57:31
  Remember the career person? Remember the old man?
• 57:35
  No wonder. In spite of their various levels
• 57:38
  of achievements, one thing that still remains in their life is
• 57:42
  the need for fulfillment. As a young boy, as a student, as
• 57:47
  a graduate, as a married man, as a father, as a grandfather, as a
• 57:52
  career person, as an expert, as a poor person, as a millionaire,
• 57:57
  as a billionaire, as an enlightened person, as a
• 58:00
  successful man of God. The same thread runs to all of
• 58:04
  these people. A craving that many do not
• 58:07
  understand. So watch this.
• 58:10
  We invented various ways of trying to fulfill this craving.
• 58:15
  I can tell you that is the principal cause of frustration
• 58:20
  in today's world. Is God speaking to someone the
• 58:28
  principal cause of frustration? Many people live lives that are
• 58:36
  frustrated today and you will ask them what they are looking
• 58:40
  for and they cannot really articulate what is driving them.
• 58:44
  What are they looking for? They think they are looking for
• 58:48
  a car. They think they are looking for
• 58:51
  a house or a bigger house. They think they are looking for
• 58:55
  a husband or a wife. They think they are looking for
• 58:59
  twins or triplets. Please listen very carefully.
• 59:03
  Believe me when I tell you nothing physical and nothing
• 59:07
  material has been authorized by God to give anybody fulfillment.
• 59:12
  None of it has the power to give you fulfillment.
• 59:15
  Wow. Not your certificate, not your
• 59:20
  marriage, not your children, not the cars you buy, not the
• 59:26
  titles. Don't get me wrong, I'm not
• 59:28
  saying these things are not useful, but I'm interpreting for
• 59:31
  you the thing you are really looking for.
• 59:33
  You think it is a car that you are looking for.
• 59:36
  I'm giving you an advance notice.
• 59:37
  You will find that car and only rejoice for a very short time.
• 59:41
  That's why we enjoy things that are new and then they stop
• 59:45
  giving us fulfillment. Remember when you bought the
• 59:48
  SUV? You smiled and gave God glory,
• 59:51
  danced around it and snapped it. It's in your house, but you
• 59:54
  wanted it to be within your sight.
• 59:56
  Four months later on, it's not fixed and you don't care what
• 59:59
  changed. You found out that it did not
• 1:00:02
  have the ability. You thought it deceived you.
• 1:00:16
  Jesus, you're the cup that won't run dry.
• 1:00:23
  Treasure of my heart and of my soul.
• 1:00:30
  In my weakness, You are merciful, Redeemer of my past
• 1:00:40
  and press and wrong. You're the holder of my future
• 1:00:47
  days. This is very.
• 1:00:50
  Powerful for who is like you, Lord all dear, much less love
• 1:01:00
  you endless. Hallelujah man of God, I know
• 1:01:09
  you think what you are looking for is more members.
• 1:01:12
  You are sincere, but that is not what you are looking for.
• 1:01:15
  What seekest thou, My dear sister?
• 1:01:20
  I know you are trusting God to have children.
• 1:01:24
  It is your obsession and it is your prayer.
• 1:01:27
  Lord, if only you will give me children and take away this
• 1:01:30
  shame. You are sincere, but let me
• 1:01:34
  announce to you in advance that is truly not what you are
• 1:01:37
  looking for. You are only looking for it
• 1:01:40
  because you suspect there is something in it.
• 1:01:43
  I'm going behind your physical desires to tell you what you are
• 1:01:47
  really looking for. Can I tell you not knowing this
• 1:01:54
  is the reason why respectfully speaking, many homes are broken
• 1:01:59
  and scattered. The man is saying I hate you
• 1:02:02
  every time you fight anybody in your life.
• 1:02:05
  Let me tell you what you are fighting.
• 1:02:07
  I don't care what is the subject matter.
• 1:02:09
  What you are really fighting is a violation of these things.
• 1:02:14
  You hate people to the degree to which they violate your agenda
• 1:02:18
  to having one or more of these six.
• 1:02:21
  So when the woman looks at the man and says you are a stupid
• 1:02:24
  man, I regret marrying you, you a devil from the pit of hell
• 1:02:29
  shift all that English, what is she saying?
• 1:02:32
  You have robbed me of of an opportunity to feel secured.
• 1:02:36
  You have robbed me of an opportunity to feel significant.
• 1:02:40
  You have robbed me of an opportunity to feel accepted.
• 1:02:44
  You have pegged unlimited growth in my life.
• 1:02:48
  It is a all of our English is just a way of trying to express
• 1:02:53
  this cry when a man of God is frustrated and say, Lord anoint
• 1:02:57
  me. What is he saying?
• 1:02:59
  Lord, give me what will take away shame from my life.
• 1:03:02
  He's saying now he thinks he's just one soul saved and he's
• 1:03:06
  right. But why does he need the
• 1:03:11
  anointing that he will lock up himself for 40 days?
• 1:03:15
  What does the anointing do to him?
• 1:03:17
  He knows that when the anointing is there, the sick will be
• 1:03:20
  healed, oppressed people will be delivered, and inevitably the
• 1:03:25
  Lord Himself will increase His influence.
• 1:03:28
  So He would have significance, He would have acceptance.
• 1:03:31
  Are you seeing now when you buy a car, why do you rejoice?
• 1:03:37
  I will tell you, you are too smart to rejoice over a metal.
• 1:03:41
  It is not the metal that is giving you joy.
• 1:03:42
  You think it is the car that is giving you joy, that car
• 1:03:47
  spelling something to your psychology significance.
• 1:03:51
  That car may make a group now finally accept you.
• 1:03:55
  What you are really looking for is not a car.
• 1:03:57
  I bring you an interpretation so that we'll find rest from this
• 1:04:01
  endless mundane pursuit. Most people don't know what
• 1:04:05
  they're looking for. Remember what seekers down
• 1:04:11
  because the professor finds out that he's still frustrated like
• 1:04:14
  the one who just has SSE. The married man is still
• 1:04:18
  frustrated as the unmarried man. The barren woman is still
• 1:04:22
  frustrated as the person with eight children.
• 1:04:24
  The billionaire is still frustrated as the one whose
• 1:04:26
  business has died. So what are you really looking
• 1:04:30
  for? Nigeria lost at the stadium.
• 1:04:39
  I'm not, I'm not a footballer. I'm a patriotic citizen.
• 1:04:43
  Why did people get angry? People cried like they lost
• 1:04:48
  loved ones. What did they really lose?
• 1:04:52
  Yes. Thank God for all of the name,
• 1:04:55
  but to you. What hurt you so bad that you
• 1:04:58
  lost your appetite? Was it really the ball?
• 1:05:01
  Do you like a round object that much?
• 1:05:04
  No, you were hoping that that result will help to give you a
• 1:05:11
  little dopamine feeling that you are in an environment that
• 1:05:15
  works. And since it did not happen, it
• 1:05:18
  reinforced again the fact that you might truly be a failure.
• 1:05:33
  When people are getting married, why do they cry that they don't
• 1:05:35
  have money? Is money a condition really for
• 1:05:38
  marriage? Everything is in place, no cake,
• 1:05:41
  no suit. And they're crying.
• 1:05:44
  The priest is there. Your parents are there.
• 1:05:46
  Why are you really crying? I will tell you because that is
• 1:05:49
  a moment in a lifetime where you can rob off your significance
• 1:05:53
  and force anybody who has looked down on you to know that this is
• 1:05:57
  a day that is exclusively to me. And now finances wants to bust
• 1:06:02
  your tire and you are angry and say no, the devil is a liar.
• 1:06:05
  It will lead you to pray. It will lead you to fast.
• 1:06:09
  No. If you receive a transfer of 100
• 1:06:21
  million naira, listen, listen, Say Amen.
• 1:06:30
  Why did you say Amen? Listen, if I had said if you sow
• 1:06:37
  a seed. Of 1,000,000 naira, you will not
• 1:06:41
  fight me because so in his spiritual, but you will not say
• 1:06:43
  Amen for that kind of prayer, especially if you know you
• 1:06:46
  really have that kind of money, lest God turns it into an
• 1:06:50
  instruction and says you should give that money.
• 1:06:52
  True, true now, but I said you would receive 100 million naira.
• 1:06:57
  Now watch this. Let's examine it.
• 1:07:00
  What is 100 million naira? A figure written online that you
• 1:07:06
  can read, or a piece of paper? No, they represent something
• 1:07:11
  that seem to draw a line through the psychological needs from
• 1:07:15
  security to variety to acceptance.
• 1:07:19
  Are we together to significance? That is why you really want the
• 1:07:23
  money. When you get a good job, why do
• 1:07:28
  you suddenly the person you were saying yes Sir?
• 1:07:30
  You don't feel a need to say yes Sir again, and you are not
• 1:07:32
  afraid. What changed?
• 1:07:39
  We use different terminologies in our world Level has changed.
• 1:07:43
  You are, you know all those kinds of things.
• 1:07:47
  You know it. But I'm telling you that,
• 1:07:49
  listen, that's what you are looking for.
• 1:07:54
  Why are you angry when people forget your birthday?
• 1:07:58
  Did they kill you? Did they blackmail you?
• 1:08:02
  So why are you angry over something that happens in just
• 1:08:09
  24 hours? Why do you take it personal that
• 1:08:12
  after 10 years you are still angry and you transfer that
• 1:08:16
  anger to the children? This thing is very serious
• 1:08:21
  because there are many of us who they gave back to us in the
• 1:08:24
  midst of two people's heads being joined together.
• 1:08:27
  You don't even know the story, you just know that you arrived
• 1:08:30
  and met fire from both sides. What is the cause of this hatred
• 1:08:34
  between my father or my family and you don't know and trace all
• 1:08:42
  of that trouble. It is one of these six things.
• 1:08:46
  I will never. Forgive you till Jesus comes.
• 1:08:49
  What you are trying to say is you did something that gave me a
• 1:08:53
  perception that was against my desire for any of these six
• 1:09:00
  things. Now when you look at me and you
• 1:09:04
  say apostle, you're a good man, I like you.
• 1:09:06
  What are you saying? You are saying either through
• 1:09:10
  your life or through your teachings, you have been able to
• 1:09:14
  help me achieve this goal of being and feeling secured,
• 1:09:20
  creating a variety in my life. Sometimes I'm preaching and I'm
• 1:09:23
  very serious and yet you laugh. Why are you laughing?
• 1:09:26
  That one minute of variety adds spice to the thing.
• 1:09:29
  While I'm still serious and shouting here you are laughing
• 1:09:32
  because you are enjoying what I'm saying.
• 1:09:37
  Variety. Amazing.
• 1:09:42
  The worship team, they come and stand here and it is true that
• 1:09:47
  they are singing a song about Jesus, salvation, the cross, and
• 1:09:51
  still they will have to package that song using variety.
• 1:09:56
  If they sang what they sang week before last, next week, by the
• 1:10:01
  other week they are singing it. Even them they will know it's
• 1:10:03
  not blessing you. Again, Even if the whole song is
• 1:10:05
  Jesus, Jesus, Lamb of God, you died for me, it will still not
• 1:10:10
  bless you because there was no variety in it.
• 1:10:15
  Why do you invite so many music ministers?
• 1:10:17
  When is the same person they are all talking about?
• 1:10:29
  You want them to talk about that person in as many ways.
• 1:10:38
  Biologists and nutritionists to tell us that this food has
• 1:10:43
  vitamin C, this one has vitamin C, and yet all your body needs
• 1:10:48
  is vitamin C, but you will want to carry the various forms of
• 1:10:52
  it. You will not eat orange alone
• 1:10:54
  all the days of your life and you want to add something else.
• 1:10:57
  Even though what your body needs is just the vitamin C, for
• 1:11:00
  instance, you will still want it to come in another expression.
• 1:11:08
  Listen to me, let me repeat something.
• 1:11:11
  I said that nothing physical and nothing material in itself can
• 1:11:19
  and will ever give you fulfillment.
• 1:11:22
  I I assure you on this, it is the reason why we seem to make
• 1:11:28
  it and yet become frustrated. You would think a man of God
• 1:11:33
  having a large membership and having the power and the
• 1:11:36
  anointing of God and a great grace for Revelation should
• 1:11:39
  never have any concern in his life again.
• 1:11:41
  Unfortunately that is not so. You will think a billionaire and
• 1:11:45
  a millionaire should never have any concern in his life again.
• 1:11:49
  Unfortunately that is not so. What sickest doubt.
• 1:11:56
  Please look at me my brother. It is not a car you are looking
• 1:12:00
  for, give yourself rest. It is not twins or triplets
• 1:12:07
  you're looking for, give yourself rest.
• 1:12:10
  It is not another job you are really looking for, give
• 1:12:14
  yourself rest. I can tell you what you are
• 1:12:17
  looking for is a craving for security.
• 1:12:21
  What you are looking for is a craving for dynamism and
• 1:12:25
  variety. What you are looking for is a
• 1:12:28
  craving for significance and acknowledgement.
• 1:12:33
  What you are looking for is a craving for acceptance and love.
• 1:12:38
  What you are looking for is a craving for growth and increase
• 1:12:43
  in advancement. What you are looking for is an
• 1:12:48
  honest opportunity for your life to at least count.
• 1:13:00
  Write this down. All physical things that we
• 1:13:06
  seek, all physical things that we seek, are only expressions
• 1:13:14
  and conveyors of a deeper spiritual and psychological
• 1:13:21
  longing. I'll take it again.
• 1:13:25
  All physical things that we seek are only expressions and
• 1:13:35
  conveyors of a deeper spiritual and psychological longing.
• 1:13:44
  Through that car, you hope to find something else.
• 1:13:48
  Through that marriage, you hope to find something else.
• 1:13:51
  Through the increase, you hope to find something else.
• 1:13:54
  Through the anointing, you hope to find something else.
• 1:13:57
  Through the political position, you hope to find something else.
• 1:14:01
  Do you know why I'm helping you? I'm helping you with this
• 1:14:04
  teaching so that as you seek to have physical things around you,
• 1:14:09
  you will have it at the back of your mind that nothing in itself
• 1:14:14
  that I have or ever have will give me what I'm truly looking
• 1:14:18
  for. So you can enjoy the physical
• 1:14:21
  blessings by having this knowledge that if it is
• 1:14:25
  fulfillment I am looking for, these are not the things that
• 1:14:28
  will give it to me. That way you can become wealthy
• 1:14:31
  and wise. You can become exceptional and
• 1:14:34
  wise. Why?
• 1:14:35
  Your wisdom comes in knowing that none of these things in
• 1:14:38
  themselves and give me fulfillment.
• 1:14:42
  Then you start looking for what will really give you security in
• 1:14:46
  a deeper way. What will really give you
• 1:14:49
  variety in a deeper way? What will really give you
• 1:14:52
  acceptance in a deeper way? Look up.
• 1:14:55
  Please can I tell you this if you don't answer this question
• 1:15:00
  and trust God to help you as a husband, you will find yourself
• 1:15:05
  beating your wife every day. And if they ask you why are you
• 1:15:08
  really beating this woman, you will say she does not cook well.
• 1:15:12
  If they probe you, you too will say honestly I don't know why.
• 1:15:16
  I will tell you you are you are hurting somebody because of
• 1:15:19
  something you are looking for and because that is the obvious
• 1:15:23
  scapegoat around you, you will land it on the person using the
• 1:15:26
  guise of any story. Same thing with wife.
• 1:15:29
  You can turn and say my husband is not responsible and then
• 1:15:33
  after you cry and you are done, they say what are you really
• 1:15:35
  looking for? And you say I don't know.
• 1:15:37
  I can't tell you what you are looking for.
• 1:15:39
  You are looking for what money cannot give.
• 1:15:42
  You are looking for what marriage cannot give.
• 1:15:44
  You are looking for what employment cannot give.
• 1:15:47
  You are looking for what entrepreneurship cannot give.
• 1:15:50
  You are looking for what a designer cannot give.
• 1:15:53
  You are looking for what travels across the globe cannot give.
• 1:15:59
  Genesis 37 and verse 15. Just give it to us.
• 1:16:09
  And a certain man found you, Rigma rolling around life and a
• 1:16:17
  certain man found you with a pile of enemies on your
• 1:16:21
  blacklist. And they say, well, what is all
• 1:16:23
  this about? And he said, what are you really
• 1:16:28
  looking for? Why do you have enemies
• 1:16:31
  everywhere you go from this company, you had enemies.
• 1:16:34
  From that company you have enemies.
• 1:16:36
  Look what the kind of person I am, I don't allow anybody insult
• 1:16:39
  me. What are you really saying?
• 1:16:42
  I have a problem and I'm yet to deal with it.
• 1:16:45
  So the obvious is to blame anybody I can blame.
• 1:16:49
  Can I tell you when you have a problem with too many people,
• 1:16:52
  the problem is you because you interpret life from the lens of
• 1:16:57
  your own limitation. When you have a problem in
• 1:17:00
  Lagos, Abuja, London, Kaduna, UK, the problem is you.
• 1:17:10
  Nothing physical. I remember a story of a man
• 1:17:23
  whose car got burnt and the man killed himself.
• 1:17:27
  I wonder what you will find out, where you will find out how
• 1:17:31
  foolish he was by killing himself because the car got
• 1:17:36
  burnt. Now I don't mean to insult you.
• 1:17:38
  Let me tell you why the man killed himself because that car
• 1:17:43
  burning seemed to have an impact on his mind based on the
• 1:17:47
  awareness that myself worth is tied to this reality.
• 1:17:51
  And now that that car has gone, what will my family people think
• 1:17:55
  of me? Can I tell you this?
• 1:17:57
  If you understand this message I am teaching you, it will bring
• 1:18:00
  you permanent deliverance. You will strive to be
• 1:18:04
  successful, but you will know that there is something greater
• 1:18:06
  than success. So you will not postpone your
• 1:18:10
  joy till the day you build the mansion.
• 1:18:12
  You will start rejoicing today. If they ask you why, you will
• 1:18:16
  say I know that even my 10 years is not what will give me joy and
• 1:18:22
  fulfillment, no. The narrative that most people
• 1:18:34
  have, and I say this respectfully, the narrative that
• 1:18:37
  most people have, especially in Africa, unfortunately is a
• 1:18:41
  narrative that has been sold by social media, is that the moment
• 1:18:45
  you have money, remember the one million thing I said God bless
• 1:18:49
  you and you shouted Amen. The moment you have money,
• 1:18:53
  especially lots of it, your respect, your esteem,
• 1:18:59
  everything. You have photos of people with
• 1:19:02
  all kinds of priority vehicles. They're around wearing
• 1:19:06
  designers, the latest this and there is a craving in you.
• 1:19:10
  I must get it. Anyhow, let me give you an
• 1:19:12
  advice. Before time there was one who
• 1:19:14
  already got it before you hear what that person said.
• 1:19:18
  Vanity upon vanity. Now you have to understand, the
• 1:19:23
  person who the Bible says was speaking the Bible did not call
• 1:19:27
  him a businessman. The Bible called him a preacher.
• 1:19:33
  He's saying where you are hoping to get to.
• 1:19:36
  I've already gotten there. I can tell you there is nothing
• 1:19:39
  there in itself. This is not a call to a life of
• 1:19:43
  mediocrity and carelessness. It would challenge you to aspire
• 1:19:48
  to get your dreams and your goals.
• 1:19:50
  But let me tell you sincerely, as you seek to become all that
• 1:19:54
  God has created you to be, I give you an advice because the
• 1:19:58
  world of a of the great is very deceptive.
• 1:20:02
  They arrive there and then they sit and they check to see if
• 1:20:07
  that craving has been satisfied, and they find out, painfully,
• 1:20:13
  that like a drug. Who that will satisfy you for a
• 1:20:17
  short time and you are back to yourself.
• 1:20:20
  That's why they get angry. So all my labor of doing this,
• 1:20:25
  I'm building that. I thought it would give me that
• 1:20:27
  sense of significance, and yet it does not give you anything.
• 1:20:33
  What then satisfies these cravings if a car cannot really
• 1:20:39
  do it, if a house cannot really do it?
• 1:20:43
  All of those things carry with themselves little expressions.
• 1:20:48
  We we call them feelings. It's a word that we have
• 1:20:51
  invented to help us relate with the kind of energy or that that
• 1:20:57
  sense of pleasantness that is derived as a way of checking one
• 1:21:02
  of these six lists again, I give you a khaki.
• 1:21:07
  You rejoice because something comes out from that car, a
• 1:21:11
  feeling that I am successful, a feeling that I am not a failure.
• 1:21:17
  And when that feeling comes, that's it.
• 1:21:20
  One day you will be tired of the same car you once rejoiced
• 1:21:23
  about. One day you'll be tired of the
• 1:21:25
  same phone you are now holding and rejoicing about.
• 1:21:28
  One day you will be tired of the same hair you are wearing now
• 1:21:31
  that give you joy. One day you'll be tired.
• 1:21:34
  Can you imagine? Remember during the inaugural
• 1:21:36
  service here in Koinonia? Remember how we rejoice over
• 1:21:39
  this beautiful place, the excellence, the ambience.
• 1:21:42
  Now we're tired of it and we're trusting God to go to another
• 1:21:45
  place. The visitor redeemed and I saw
• 1:21:49
  the 1km by 1 kilometer that was built and I thought to myself,
• 1:21:54
  what was in Baba's heart when this came?
• 1:21:57
  Then they got fed up and tired of it.
• 1:22:00
  Then they moved to 3 kilometer by 3 kilometer.
• 1:22:05
  Our father and the Lord Bishop David Oedeco, they are building
• 1:22:08
  the ark now. Remember for a long time he
• 1:22:10
  celebrated the 50,000 capacity seater and one day that thing
• 1:22:15
  again he said let's go for the ark.
• 1:22:18
  I can assure you by the God of heaven, if Christ tarries,
• 1:22:22
  accept age and other things. But if Christ tarries usually
• 1:22:27
  and every time he blesses people, he will tell you that
• 1:22:30
  there is even a greater 1 coming.
• 1:22:39
  Why am I teaching you this? Because I want you to be both
• 1:22:43
  successful and fulfilled. Let's define fulfillment again,
• 1:22:48
  that it is the satisfaction and the joy that is derived from
• 1:22:55
  knowing that you have lived your life effectively, serving the
• 1:23:00
  purposes of the Kingdom and being a blessing to humanity.
• 1:23:04
  I've had the honor and the privilege by the grace of God to
• 1:23:09
  be around people who were diagnosed with terminal diseases
• 1:23:14
  or people who were. They literally knew that they
• 1:23:17
  were on their way going. I've had the honor of praying
• 1:23:20
  with them. I've had some healed
• 1:23:22
  miraculously. But in all fairness, there are
• 1:23:25
  others that I prayed and I knew that probably these people,
• 1:23:29
  their time was up and at that time.
• 1:23:31
  Listen carefully. We have to borrow the mindset of
• 1:23:34
  a dying man to understand what. Fulfillment is about.
• 1:23:38
  Once you are not a dying man, you cannot really comprehend the
• 1:23:41
  wisdom behind seeking fulfillment.
• 1:23:44
  You have to borrow the thinking, the last minute of a man who is
• 1:23:49
  alive, who is transiting the earth.
• 1:23:52
  There is something about that wisdom you must capture, and
• 1:23:55
  that is what will help us tonight.
• 1:23:57
  What does a dying man look for? Imagine.
• 1:24:05
  Don't be afraid, just imagine that God told you right now that
• 1:24:11
  by 12 midnight today, OK, you will be afraid of going to
• 1:24:17
  heaven, but he's coming in any case, whether you are going or
• 1:24:21
  he's coming, you people must meet because I don't want you to
• 1:24:25
  say I'm confessing negatively. You know, believe us some the
• 1:24:28
  way we think sometimes, but realistically, imagine that the
• 1:24:33
  Lord told you today that Joshua Salman by 11:55 you are going
• 1:24:41
  home Question. I know you have investments
• 1:24:44
  around the world. I know you have all kinds of
• 1:24:49
  things. I know you plan to travel next
• 1:24:51
  week. I know you even plan to do a lot
• 1:24:54
  of things there. There's a TV interview
• 1:24:57
  somewhere. But what will become your point
• 1:25:01
  of focus with that knowledge? Just one information was passed
• 1:25:05
  to you that you have three more hours in this life and that's
• 1:25:10
  it. Three more hours.
• 1:25:14
  Wrap up whatever you have to do. You have three hours.
• 1:25:17
  No prayer will change it. 3 hours.
• 1:25:23
  You are not sicko and it's not going to be accident.
• 1:25:25
  You will not be anything once it's time.
• 1:25:27
  God knows the many ways you will pick you so that you don't feel
• 1:25:30
  but you just have three hours. Think for a moment, what are you
• 1:25:33
  going to do? Remember, your home, your
• 1:25:37
  hometown is more than three hours, so don't even think of
• 1:25:39
  running there. Think of something wiser that
• 1:25:42
  you would do three hours. I'm about to share something
• 1:25:49
  else with you and then we'll pray.
• 1:25:50
  That's why I'm asking you this question.
• 1:25:53
  Do you know I will tell you this.
• 1:25:55
  I can give you an idea of what will happen to you in that
• 1:26:00
  moment. I give you a guarantee.
• 1:26:09
  Nothing else matters. Nothing else counts.
• 1:26:21
  I'm in the presence of my. Listen, when you are right
• 1:26:34
  there, you may think of your businesses, you may think of
• 1:26:43
  your investments. You may think of your
• 1:26:46
  certificates. You may think of your wife.
• 1:26:49
  You may think of your husband. You may think of your parents.
• 1:26:52
  You may think of your children. You may think of your future and
• 1:26:55
  your goals, your plans, your house under construction.
• 1:26:59
  You may think of the person owing you and the police case
• 1:27:02
  that is still pending. You will think of all of these
• 1:27:05
  things and yet you will be surprised that none of them at
• 1:27:09
  that point will be able to bring you satisfaction.
• 1:27:13
  Listen carefully. There is only one thing you will
• 1:27:17
  be looking for at that point. When you stand with the
• 1:27:20
  consciousness that I have only three hours to live in this
• 1:27:26
  life, there is only one thing you will look for.
• 1:27:30
  It is called peace. Write it down, John 1427 The
• 1:27:42
  peace of God, please write it down.
• 1:27:49
  Everybody write it down. Peace.
• 1:27:54
  When trouble blows, Jehovah sees, Jehovah knows.
• 1:28:04
  Here's my peace. Do you know remember 3 hours to
• 1:28:21
  end your life? And yet it is not another degree
• 1:28:26
  you want. It is not another political
• 1:28:29
  office you want 3 hours. It is timing.
• 1:28:33
  By now it will be less than the three hours.
• 1:28:37
  It is not, whether you like it or not, non negotiable 3 hours.
• 1:28:42
  Then you will now have the wisdom to look for what you
• 1:28:45
  would have spent your entire life really looking for.
• 1:28:49
  The thing you are looking for at the point of death is what you
• 1:28:52
  should find first in your life and have the privilege of
• 1:28:55
  enjoying it. Because I will tell you in that
• 1:28:59
  security, in that variety, in that significance, in that
• 1:29:07
  acceptance, in that sense of growth, in that sense of
• 1:29:13
  achievement, all of them have various ways of saying the same
• 1:29:18
  thing. This is one thing.
• 1:29:20
  You are looking for peace. How come you only find it when
• 1:29:27
  you are ours to the end of your life, whereas that is really
• 1:29:31
  what you need even from the start of your life?
• 1:29:35
  And Can you imagine that it is available even before you find
• 1:29:40
  any of these things? That you can have it without a
• 1:29:43
  car, you can have it without a child, you can have it without a
• 1:29:49
  charge, and yet we ignore it. But when you are about to go,
• 1:29:53
  when every other thing fades, you find out that is the real
• 1:29:57
  thing. So when I crave for security,
• 1:30:04
  what I am really looking for is peace.
• 1:30:10
  When I crave for variety, what I'm really looking for is peace.
• 1:30:16
  When I crave for significance, what I'm really looking for is
• 1:30:21
  peace. When I crave for acceptance,
• 1:30:26
  running away from trouble, what I'm really looking for is peace.
• 1:30:31
  When I crave for growth, what I'm really looking for is peace.
• 1:30:38
  I know you wouldn't believe it if I tell you the reason why you
• 1:30:40
  are running around with your CV is that you are looking for
• 1:30:43
  peace. You will say apostle, you are
• 1:30:44
  wrong, I'm looking for a job. You are right in your lifetime.
• 1:30:49
  But back to my story. Few minutes to the end of your
• 1:30:53
  life, you would discover that what you were really looking for
• 1:30:56
  was not a job, that what you are looking for is not.
• 1:31:01
  A travel abroad or a second citizenship?
• 1:31:10
  When it's all been said and done, there is just one thing
• 1:31:18
  that matters. Did I live my life to live for
• 1:31:26
  truth? That you look beyond our
• 1:32:01
  weakness, and find precious gold in merry clay.
• 1:32:09
  Turning Sinner. Sing to St.
• 1:32:14
  And I will always sing your praise here on earth and ever
• 1:32:23
  after, For you've shown me heavens, my true home.
• 1:32:30
  When it's all been said and done.
• 1:32:35
  You're my life when life. John 14 and verse 27.
• 1:32:46
  Listen to what Jesus the Wise has to tell you, dear one who
• 1:32:51
  has been given the gift of life, peace, I live with you, My peace
• 1:33:00
  I give to you, not as the word given, give I unto you.
• 1:33:07
  He said. Let not your heart be troubled,
• 1:33:10
  neither let it be afraid. I have given you something.
• 1:33:14
  The fear that comes as a result of lack of a job.
• 1:33:18
  I don't mean to get too emotional, but everybody who
• 1:33:22
  died in the train that was headed to Kaduna, by the time
• 1:33:26
  they left Abuja, they had plans. When they woke up that morning,
• 1:33:31
  they said I will return back in the evening and when I return,
• 1:33:35
  honey, I'm rushing down to Kaduna to do something quickly.
• 1:33:38
  I just want to check my building.
• 1:33:40
  And they did not know that they had three hours left.
• 1:33:46
  I know you may not see the wisdom in what I'm teaching you
• 1:33:49
  today. I'm not saying you would die,
• 1:33:52
  but I'm giving you wisdom that is greater than investments.
• 1:33:57
  Wisdom. Can I tell you this?
• 1:33:59
  It is a waste of time to suspend your pursuit for peace until you
• 1:34:04
  find a house. It is a waste of time to suspend
• 1:34:09
  your pursuit for peace until you have children.
• 1:34:12
  It is a waste of time to suspend your pursuit for peace until you
• 1:34:16
  have money. None of those things have the
• 1:34:21
  power to give you peace, I can tell you.
• 1:34:25
  They may carry with them expressions of conveniences that
• 1:34:29
  may minister security may minister variety, but security
• 1:34:34
  variety, significance, love and acceptance, growth and
• 1:34:42
  advancement, impact and contribution as psychological
• 1:34:46
  ways of looking for the same thing peace.
• 1:34:50
  Jesus said I've given it to you. I don't give you when you finish
• 1:34:54
  your degree. I don't give you when you finish
• 1:34:57
  your master's. I don't give you when you finish
• 1:34:59
  your PhD. I don't give you when you become
• 1:35:01
  a professor. I don't give you when you are 60
• 1:35:03
  years right where you are before you even start your journey.
• 1:35:07
  You can carry the peace of God when you find a house is just an
• 1:35:11
  added advantage. What peace is there even if the
• 1:35:14
  house goes? Your peace remain as God grants
• 1:35:19
  you children. You are celebrating the children
• 1:35:21
  and dancing, but not without your peace.
• 1:35:23
  Can I tell you, no matter what you lose, you did not lose if
• 1:35:28
  what you have left is peace, but no matter what you gain.
• 1:35:33
  Hear me, you really lost if you lost your peace on the way.
• 1:35:37
  Many of you start with that gift of peace.
• 1:35:40
  You throw it away. You look for a wife.
• 1:35:43
  You throw it away to look for a husband.
• 1:35:46
  You throw it away to look for a job.
• 1:35:49
  You throw it away to look for ministry.
• 1:35:51
  Increase at the end of it, watch what you have children, a name,
• 1:35:58
  a private jet, money in your account in various currencies, a
• 1:36:04
  political position, titles, qualifications.
• 1:36:09
  No peace, where did you keep it? And you find out that you left
• 1:36:14
  it in 1980, you threw it when you began your journey looking
• 1:36:19
  for other things. And at the end of your life, you
• 1:36:22
  will say house give me fulfillment and house is not my
• 1:36:26
  assignment degree give me fulfillment, it is not my
• 1:36:32
  assignment. All of them will say, my
• 1:36:34
  assignment is only to give you success.
• 1:36:37
  Once we help you to become successful, our mission is
• 1:36:40
  finished in your life. What then gives me fulfillment?
• 1:36:44
  Peace. Hear me.
• 1:36:47
  The only thing that can give you fulfillment in your life is the
• 1:36:54
  peace that comes with knowing that you have lived your life
• 1:36:58
  effectively serving the purposes of God and being a blessing to
• 1:37:04
  humanity. Philippians chapter 4 and verse
• 1:37:07
  7. Philippians chapter 4 and verse
• 1:37:10
  7 and the peace of God which surpasseth all understanding is
• 1:37:18
  says shall keep your heart and your minds.
• 1:37:21
  When you read the preceding verse, verse 6, it says be
• 1:37:25
  anxious for nothing anxiety Nigeria please look at me.
• 1:37:32
  There is such anxiety right now. I want to make it.
• 1:37:37
  I want to make sure that things work and I assure you by God,
• 1:37:41
  God is more interested in your success than you are even
• 1:37:44
  interested. The God that we serve is more
• 1:37:46
  determined, except that we have been given a wrong narrative
• 1:37:52
  that things they give success and they also give fulfillment.
• 1:37:57
  I am here to tell you by the authority of scripture and the
• 1:37:59
  wisdom of those who have gone before us, that the limit of
• 1:38:03
  everything you ever have in your life is the realm of success.
• 1:38:07
  When you pass the realm of success, only one thing is
• 1:38:10
  qualified to pass with you, your peace.
• 1:38:13
  And if you throw it away looking for the other tokens of success,
• 1:38:17
  a root shock will be waiting for you at the end where that line
• 1:38:21
  is drawn. My peace I give to you.
• 1:38:27
  Let me tell you this, and I submit to you by the God of
• 1:38:31
  heaven. I thank God for everything that
• 1:38:34
  He has done in my life. And I thank God for all of you
• 1:38:38
  and our global family who have contributed to helping this life
• 1:38:42
  attain some level and some measure of success.
• 1:38:45
  But I thank God because I learned early ministry is
• 1:38:50
  powerful, it reveals Jesus, but on his own as an art or an
• 1:38:55
  occupation does not give you peace.
• 1:38:58
  I can tell you traveling around the world, I don't care whether
• 1:39:04
  you go with first class, business class, private jet, it
• 1:39:07
  will not give you peace. The same weather will shake
• 1:39:10
  every plane. It doesn't matter where you are
• 1:39:12
  seated the plane, it is the space in a first class business
• 1:39:18
  class economy. If if the weather shakes it, the
• 1:39:22
  whole plane will shake. If that plane crashes, everybody
• 1:39:29
  there will crash. Now I'm tempted to sing it
• 1:39:38
  again. There are Thrones, there are
• 1:39:42
  cleaners, there are mountains and there are Thrones.
• 1:39:52
  Only a shoe will reign forever to his Kingdom.
• 1:40:01
  There'll be no air one more time.
• 1:40:05
  There are Thrones, there are Kingdom, there are mountains,
• 1:40:14
  and there are. Please write this down.
• 1:40:33
  Aside from your relationship with Jesus Christ, aside from
• 1:40:38
  your family, and aside from your assignment, nothing else is a do
• 1:40:45
  or die affair. Write it down.
• 1:40:48
  Aside from your relationship with Jesus, aside from your
• 1:40:55
  family, and aside from your assignment?
• 1:41:00
  Absolutely nothing. Else.
• 1:41:02
  Is a do or die affair. Listen carefully.
• 1:41:07
  Listen carefully. Don't be distracted.
• 1:41:10
  Aside from your relationship with Jesus, aside from your
• 1:41:16
  family, aside from your assignment, there is absolutely
• 1:41:22
  nothing else in this life that is a do or die affair.
• 1:41:28
  Why are you allowing the issue of the job to kill you?
• 1:41:33
  Are you that cheap to give it the power to kill you?
• 1:41:37
  Why are you allowing the fact that you were not recognized in
• 1:41:40
  an occasion? This thing happened January
• 1:41:43
  until now you have developed. You are almost sick because your
• 1:41:50
  ego was tongue. So those who left who today have
• 1:42:01
  gone to be with the Lord, I imagine them sitting
• 1:42:04
  respectfully. Some of them are your loved
• 1:42:06
  ones. I don't mean to get too
• 1:42:07
  emotional, but when they sat in that train as it started, they
• 1:42:12
  didn't know the clock too started the same way you are
• 1:42:17
  seated here. I'm not trying to be a bearer of
• 1:42:20
  bad news, but you are closer today than you were in the
• 1:42:24
  morning. I don't care how long the time
• 1:42:28
  is, just know that when you woke up this morning you are closer
• 1:42:34
  to that moment. Believe it, cast it, say in
• 1:42:37
  Jesus name. I don't agree.
• 1:42:38
  Save Johnny, I can assure you, by the God of heaven, by the
• 1:42:44
  time you wake up tomorrow morning, among the many things
• 1:42:47
  that you remember, remember it is -1 day to that moment.
• 1:42:56
  So when you are fighting and dragging for your ego, let
• 1:42:59
  wisdom stand in between to separate you and say there is no
• 1:43:02
  time for this. Remember what you should not
• 1:43:06
  lose. Lose the business, but don't
• 1:43:09
  lose peace. Lose whatever, but don't lose
• 1:43:14
  peace. Remember the wisdom of a dying
• 1:43:18
  man. Money will not do you much at
• 1:43:21
  that time. It does not give fulfillment.
• 1:43:24
  So as you begin your journey and as you explore everything you
• 1:43:29
  are trying to explore, look up, please.
• 1:43:32
  There is a kind of desperation many of you are giving life that
• 1:43:36
  will end up hurting you is an unnecessary desperation.
• 1:43:41
  There are the things that matter.
• 1:43:43
  The cheapest among them is peace.
• 1:43:46
  Tie it around you. No matter what happens, refuse
• 1:43:51
  to let your peace go. And at the end of your life, you
• 1:43:57
  will find out that peace brought you houses.
• 1:44:00
  You will find out that peace brought you certificates, but
• 1:44:04
  you will wave them at the gates of success, and peace will
• 1:44:08
  escort you gallantly into the realm where only few ever get to
• 1:44:13
  is called the realm of fulfillment.
• 1:44:14
  You will stand there with joy knowing you have lived your life
• 1:44:19
  effectively serving the purposes of the Kingdom.
• 1:44:24
  And whether he comes to meet you or you go to meet him, you can
• 1:44:27
  wave earth goodbye with joy because it's the same peace that
• 1:44:31
  goes with you. Jesus said my peace.
• 1:44:36
  Africa, hear me, it may look like we've lost everything.
• 1:44:40
  Nigeria, I know the cost of fuel, the cost of diesel, I know
• 1:44:45
  that terrorism is everywhere. People have lost their homes,
• 1:44:49
  people have loved their loved ones.
• 1:44:51
  And if I ask you what do you have left, I know you will say
• 1:44:53
  nothing. Let me show you that in all that
• 1:44:56
  you lost, you really did not lose anything because there is
• 1:44:59
  something Satan wants to take. My message is to help you, to
• 1:45:03
  protect it with all you've had. I may lose my family members,
• 1:45:10
  but I have peace. I may not have gotten the job
• 1:45:14
  yet, but I have peace. I may not have had ministry
• 1:45:19
  expansion yet, but I have peace. The gifts of the Spirit may not
• 1:45:23
  yet be at work in my life as a preacher, but I have peace.
• 1:45:27
  Someone shall peace. So listen to me.
• 1:45:34
  Psychology and psychologists call IT security and you need to
• 1:45:40
  be secured. They call it variety or
• 1:45:44
  dynamism. They call it significance, your
• 1:45:51
  pedigree. They call it love and acceptance
• 1:45:55
  that that craving to be handed a right hand of fellowship into
• 1:45:59
  circles and spheres. They call it growth and
• 1:46:03
  achievement. They call it impact and
• 1:46:06
  contribution. The Master only calls it one
• 1:46:09
  word, peace. So when God blesses me with a
• 1:46:20
  house, or when God blesses me with whatever life can offer, I
• 1:46:25
  enjoy it and I thank God for it. But at the back of my mind, I
• 1:46:30
  remind myself that none of these things, these things, are
• 1:46:34
  expressions of the mercy and grace of God, consolations to my
• 1:46:38
  effective living, but never the basis for it.
• 1:46:41
  That the reason why my life is effective is not because of
• 1:46:45
  these things. The reason why my life is
• 1:46:47
  effective is that I will, at the end of my life, have the peace
• 1:46:52
  that comes with knowing that I spent my life effectively
• 1:46:57
  serving the purposes of the Kingdom and being a blessing to
• 1:47:01
  humanity. Listen to me.
• 1:47:09
  Someday, very soon or later, you will have the opportunity to
• 1:47:18
  stand before the coughing of someone you know, someone
• 1:47:23
  related to you. I pray not you, at least not
• 1:47:27
  soon, but you will have a cause to stand.
• 1:47:32
  Every time you stand there, let it remind you of the message of
• 1:47:36
  this preacher that money does not give fulfillment.
• 1:47:42
  Money can create an environment that gives you efficiency and
• 1:47:47
  redeems time. I do not downplay these things.
• 1:47:50
  I've taught you and will continue to teach you the
• 1:47:53
  principles of the Kingdom. But there are many people today
• 1:47:57
  who have peace but no car. They will tell you I'm a
• 1:48:01
  failure. They have peace but no house.
• 1:48:05
  They will tell you I'm a failure.
• 1:48:07
  They have peace, but they've not gone abroad.
• 1:48:10
  They will say I'm a failure. So says the narrative of
• 1:48:13
  ignorant people come to the world of wisdom and God tells
• 1:48:17
  you no matter what you have, if peace is the foundation, you
• 1:48:22
  have something. No matter what you have, if you
• 1:48:25
  lost your peace on the way, you have nothing.
• 1:48:31
  You will keep submitting your prayer requests even before the
• 1:48:35
  end of the service. I'm going to pray for you and
• 1:48:37
  declare that all the things that need to happen in your life, for
• 1:48:41
  all these six things to happen will happen and provided you are
• 1:48:44
  engaging the Word of God. Remember my teaching last week,
• 1:48:47
  the power of God and the wisdom of God.
• 1:48:49
  Inevitably, you have results in your life.
• 1:48:53
  However, please hear me. I have told you here in
• 1:48:56
  Koinonia, I stand before the God of heaven, and I'm speaking to
• 1:49:00
  the whole world. And let me tell you sincerely,
• 1:49:04
  you see this walk Koinonia, I love you passionately with my
• 1:49:09
  heart, and for as long as God grants me breath, I will keep
• 1:49:12
  driving and driving to give my very best.
• 1:49:15
  But ABS I can shut down Koinonia this night if God says so.
• 1:49:21
  And believe me, I will go and rest the restfulness of a
• 1:49:24
  successful person, because my success is not derived in these
• 1:49:30
  things. Man of God, give yourself rest
• 1:49:34
  this headache and high blood pressure.
• 1:49:36
  There are people in their 20s, their high blood pressure is as
• 1:49:40
  if they're cooking something inside them and their pressure
• 1:49:42
  is rising and going down. You ask them why they say Kyle
• 1:49:45
  life, I must make it, This must make it is killing people is
• 1:49:50
  good to be excellent to excel, but let us be careful.
• 1:49:56
  This is a word of caution of reading many books.
• 1:49:59
  There is no end and much studies a weariness to the flesh.
• 1:50:03
  He had the conclusion of the matter.
• 1:50:05
  Fear God and keep his commands. For this is the whole duty of
• 1:50:12
  man. Politicians, if you don't win
• 1:50:15
  election, don't kill yourself. I'm saying it in advance, don't
• 1:50:20
  kill yourself. It is not a do or die affair.
• 1:50:24
  When politics becomes a do or die affair, you would do demonic
• 1:50:27
  things for it. Business people is good to
• 1:50:30
  prosper but while you are in that transition building wealth,
• 1:50:34
  be patient and find peace. You can still smile even when
• 1:50:39
  your account is read. My sister, I know you are still
• 1:50:43
  trusting God for the child. Let the naysayers kept saying
• 1:50:46
  are you a man or a woman? Don't mind them.
• 1:50:48
  God will soon answer them in grand style.
• 1:50:50
  But in the interim do not starve yourself from sleep and say oh
• 1:50:54
  God when will you visit me? No, His peace is Him with you.
• 1:50:59
  He's called the Prince of it. Are you learning?
• 1:51:09
  Most times people see the enormous work that God is doing
• 1:51:13
  and you know they feel that. Apostle, you must be thinking
• 1:51:16
  your head is going left, right and center.
• 1:51:18
  I said me, you are joking. You don't know me.
• 1:51:20
  I'm busy, but I'm not busy doing many things.
• 1:51:23
  No, I plan to live a successful and an effective life.
• 1:51:32
  Peace. Give yourself rest.
• 1:51:40
  The real estate company will come, but not by worrying.
• 1:51:44
  We're wrapping up Matthew Chapter 6.
• 1:51:50
  Only a Shuva will reign forever to your Kingdom.
• 1:51:59
  There'll be no end. Only a Shuwa will reign forever
• 1:52:09
  to his Kingdom. Let's begin our reading from
• 1:52:15
  verse 25. Everybody, please pay attention.
• 1:52:19
  I'm about to speak over your life.
• 1:52:22
  Therefore I say unto you, believers who love Jesus, take
• 1:52:27
  no thought for your life. He's not saying don't be
• 1:52:31
  careless. He's not saying don't be
• 1:52:33
  intentional. He's not saying be
• 1:52:35
  irresponsible. That's not what he's saying.
• 1:52:37
  What you shall eat or what you shall drink, or yet for your
• 1:52:42
  body what you shall put on. Look up please.
• 1:52:45
  Is not the life more than meat and the body done?
• 1:52:49
  Raiment? Next verse Behold the fowls of
• 1:52:55
  the air, for they sow not, neither do they reap nor gather
• 1:53:00
  into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeded them.
• 1:53:05
  Are they not more? Are ye not much better than
• 1:53:08
  they? 27 Which of you by taking
• 1:53:12
  thoughts, look at this now the word is worrying.
• 1:53:16
  Which of you by worrying can add 1 cubit to his business?
• 1:53:22
  One cubit? Worry does not add anything, it
• 1:53:26
  only takes away everything. Worry is a Devorah, it will come
• 1:53:32
  and take. What is there that you do not
• 1:53:34
  know is there? You may not have anything, but
• 1:53:38
  God has given you health and if you allow worry, worry would
• 1:53:42
  take the health that is remaining.
• 1:53:45
  You may not have anything, but God has given you quality
• 1:53:47
  relationships. Worry would take away the
• 1:53:50
  relationships and leave you worse than you are. 28 it says
• 1:53:55
  why worry or take ye thought for the raiment.
• 1:53:59
  Consider the lilies of the field.
• 1:54:01
  The Bible says, How they grow, they toil not, neither do this
• 1:54:07
  pin next verse. Yet I say unto you, that not
• 1:54:11
  even Solomon in all his glory is arrayed like one of these. 30
• 1:54:17
  Wherefore if God so clothed the grass of the field, which is
• 1:54:21
  today, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more
• 1:54:25
  clothe you owe you of little faith?
• 1:54:28
  31 Please look up. It says, Therefore take no
• 1:54:31
  thought saying, What shall we eat, or what shall we drink, or
• 1:54:36
  where without shall we be clothed?
• 1:54:37
  32 It says, After these things do the Gentiles seek.
• 1:54:43
  Remember our teaching. Now what are you seeking?
• 1:54:45
  The Gentiles seek for these things because they think in
• 1:54:49
  them. This is the reason why most
• 1:54:51
  people, even when they find them, they are afraid of their
• 1:54:54
  results and they want more. The reason why most people may
• 1:54:58
  never be contented in life is because they want more than
• 1:55:02
  money. They feel that by the time I
• 1:55:04
  have all of it, then I'll be satisfied. 1 billion, they are
• 1:55:10
  still looking for it and it is not that there is an assignment
• 1:55:13
  tied to it. Can I tell you the only thing
• 1:55:18
  that should necessitate you're continually wanting to attract
• 1:55:23
  more money is the building of the lost house and Kingdom
• 1:55:28
  assignment. No matter how greedy you are, if
• 1:55:31
  it is for your personal comfort, there is an exact arithmetic
• 1:55:35
  limit of money that when you have as a Christian you can live
• 1:55:39
  as lavish as you want to live. You will still not exhaust it.
• 1:55:44
  If you want more, Kingdom come must be the basis for it.
• 1:55:48
  But if it's just to fuel your lost and to try to give you
• 1:55:51
  security, you are wasting your time. 33 But seek ye first the
• 1:55:59
  Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be
• 1:56:06
  added to you. Please listen to me, ladies and
• 1:56:11
  gentlemen. The Lord gave me this word
• 1:56:14
  tonight because I believe with all my heart that someone hears
• 1:56:18
  someone watching. You are about to kill yourself.
• 1:56:22
  You are about to commit suicide because you think you are a
• 1:56:25
  failure. There are orders.
• 1:56:27
  You are not committing suicide by carrying knife to cut
• 1:56:30
  yourself. But your worry is already
• 1:56:33
  reducing your lifespan. Every day, preacher, don't look
• 1:56:39
  at the Joshua Salman's traveling around and every poster carrying
• 1:56:43
  their faces and allow the devil lie to you and say you are not
• 1:56:46
  doing anything. And you now say look, why is it
• 1:56:49
  that people are not placing a demand on me?
• 1:56:51
  And you get into a lot of nonsense that is not in the
• 1:56:54
  blueprint of your prophetic destiny because you are trying
• 1:56:58
  to match up with a narrative that has been given.
• 1:57:01
  Can I tell you after service here, many of you are going to
• 1:57:05
  go home. You will see many wonderful
• 1:57:08
  people enter their beautiful cars and drive past you.
• 1:57:11
  And you may not have a car yet, or the kind of car you would
• 1:57:14
  want to be proud of. Chances are excellent that in
• 1:57:18
  the presence of all that the wonderful cars are passing, you
• 1:57:22
  may feel angry and start insulting them.
• 1:57:25
  We can't people they stole our manage your anger with wisdom.
• 1:57:32
  It is not them that is your problem.
• 1:57:34
  There is a battle that has no business to do that car.
• 1:57:37
  It is a craving in you to succeed.
• 1:57:40
  God already calls you a success. The fact that you can have his
• 1:57:44
  peace is is great success. So every other thing that comes
• 1:57:50
  it should only be an added advantage and not the basis for
• 1:57:54
  your joy. I can tell you the truth, I am
• 1:57:57
  more comfortable today than I was 10 years ago than I was 20
• 1:58:03
  years ago, but believe me, I stand before the God of Heaven.
• 1:58:06
  Nothing added to my life today has made me happier now.
• 1:58:13
  I know you won't believe it, but it is true.
• 1:58:17
  I found out that no matter how many beds I have in my house,
• 1:58:21
  all of me only lies down on one side, Not even the whole bed.
• 1:58:27
  Whether you is rectangular or whatever it is one side, there
• 1:58:30
  will always be an empty side. You sit down on the many chairs
• 1:58:35
  you have, no matter your size, it will be one chair at a time.
• 1:58:40
  You can't cut one of your leg and put in one Jeep, cut 1 and
• 1:58:44
  put in another one. All of you can only enter one.
• 1:58:47
  Look at me. No matter how greedy you are,
• 1:58:50
  your hand will only hold one spoon at a time.
• 1:58:57
  Even if you eat with a serving, spoon is still 1 counts at 1:00.
• 1:59:06
  I will never teach you mediocrity, but again, I love
• 1:59:11
  you too much to allow you have a miserable quest for things that
• 1:59:17
  will cost you your eternal destiny and will cost you your
• 1:59:21
  peace. Anything that wants to take your
• 1:59:23
  peace is not worth it. I repeat, anything that wants to
• 1:59:28
  bargain with your peace is not worth it.
• 1:59:32
  Whether politics, whatever it is, no parents.
• 1:59:36
  Some of you have children that are extremely stubborn and are
• 1:59:40
  giving you headache. And right now your concern is
• 1:59:44
  not the rehabilitation of the children.
• 1:59:46
  Your concern is your ego and your reputation so that you are
• 1:59:49
  not perceived as having lived a failed life.
• 1:59:52
  Can I encourage you by the grace of God, ignore the naysayers,
• 1:59:55
  find peace. God knows you have done your
• 1:59:58
  best as a parent. Even Judas was part of the ones
• 2:00:02
  that Jesus worked with. And even Jesus, if you rated him
• 2:00:06
  based on Judas, you would say Jesus failed.
• 2:00:13
  Some of you here, you've been downsized, you lost your job.
• 2:00:18
  When you started this year, God spoke so powerfully about the
• 2:00:21
  year and by now you've lost your job.
• 2:00:25
  You are just sitting down here saying apostle, I don't even
• 2:00:28
  know. Among the many things you should
• 2:00:31
  not tell yourself is never tell yourself you're a failure simply
• 2:00:35
  because where you get up and go to every six to five decided to
• 2:00:39
  send you away and you carry this treasure that you are called and
• 2:00:44
  say you're a failure simply because nothing around your life
• 2:00:49
  actually makes you a success or a failure.
• 2:00:53
  It is a definition of your perception, especially when it
• 2:00:56
  has to do with fulfillment. If we don't teach this, let me
• 2:01:04
  tell you, you see this thing called ritual killing.
• 2:01:06
  It's only at its infancy. You will start seeing people do
• 2:01:09
  unbelievable things because society has defined a narrative.
• 2:01:16
  If I am 25 years old and I cannot buy a Jeep and stay in a
• 2:01:21
  mansion, I'm a failure. If we sell that narrative, let
• 2:01:25
  me tell you that generation coming will surprise us.
• 2:01:28
  You will see which craft at levels you have never seen
• 2:01:31
  before because the obsession to show preachers we have to be
• 2:01:37
  careful, respectfully speaking. The reason why you see many
• 2:01:41
  people getting under pressure, especially younger ministers
• 2:01:44
  going everywhere to receive laying on of hands, going to one
• 2:01:48
  do all kinds of demonic things. Do you know why?
• 2:01:50
  Because we have sold a narrative, if there is a crowd
• 2:01:53
  here down to the basement overflow, there are posters
• 2:01:56
  everywhere. There's the protocol working
• 2:01:58
  with you, Apostle Joshua Salman, you are so successful and a
• 2:02:02
  young man will be watching and say, ah, my life must be like
• 2:02:05
  this. I give myself until now to
• 2:02:07
  September and God is saying, son, you have peace, be patient.
• 2:02:10
  I'm walking on you and you say, no, My colleagues have gone.
• 2:02:14
  Be careful with this colleague thing.
• 2:02:17
  My colleagues have gone ahead of me.
• 2:02:19
  They now have houses. I am here.
• 2:02:21
  Your destiny is not the same. God is building and making
• 2:02:24
  something out of you. And can I tell you, let me give
• 2:02:29
  you a kind advice. If you're part of social media
• 2:02:32
  groups that sell some of this nonsense to you and they start
• 2:02:35
  torturing your peace, how do you can you go out of that thing?
• 2:02:39
  Go out of it immediately. It's not by force.
• 2:02:47
  Give yourself peace. Don't look at your cloth and say
• 2:02:52
  my own cloth is 500 naira until I start buying clothes of
• 2:02:56
  1,000,000. Who?
• 2:02:57
  Who told you that? Show me the verse and the
• 2:02:59
  scripture. Again.
• 2:03:03
  I will repeat I'm not teaching you mediocrity.
• 2:03:06
  I'm showing you the pathway to genuine fulfillment.
• 2:03:09
  Can I tell you little with peace is much.
• 2:03:13
  You don't know the what of peace until your days are wrapping up.
• 2:03:19
  When you are not somebody who has the time limited, you may
• 2:03:24
  not see how expensive. Peace is I've found the reason
• 2:03:32
  why I sing. I've found the reason why I
• 2:03:40
  sing. Why I sing Jesus?
• 2:04:18
  The reason why I sing peace is the reason.
• 2:04:27
  Why I sing peace is the reason why I sing peace is the reason.
• 2:05:12
  I know the reason why and I will be still and know you.
• 2:05:22
  I got my soul. Be still and know you.
• 2:05:31
  When the. Oceans roar and thunders roar.
• 2:06:10
  At the end of your life, there are only two things you will be
• 2:06:14
  remembered for. The problems you caused or the
• 2:06:19
  ones you solved. Let me repeat it.
• 2:06:24
  At the end of your life, there are only two things that you
• 2:06:31
  will be remembered for. The problems you caused, the joy
• 2:06:38
  you took out of lives, the mockery the heads of people you
• 2:06:44
  joined together, the pain you brought for people, or the fact
• 2:06:51
  that you stretched yourself and did your very best.
• 2:06:56
  Maybe you did not do everything, but that you did something.
• 2:07:04
  I made-up my mind. It is not my goal to do
• 2:07:07
  everything and solve everybody's problem in this life.
• 2:07:11
  That's a futile venture. What I made-up my mind that for
• 2:07:14
  as long as I have breath, I will do the best that I can to help
• 2:07:21
  anyone and everyone who can experience Jesus in and through
• 2:07:26
  my life. I will do my best as I travel to
• 2:07:31
  the nations and do everything I need to do.
• 2:07:33
  I do it because I love Jesus. I do it because I love you.
• 2:07:37
  However, it is a revelation that I've given myself that while I
• 2:07:43
  do the many things that I do, I will guard the peace of God
• 2:07:47
  jealously. It is the one asset I have.
• 2:07:51
  Not the building, not the clothes, none of those things
• 2:07:56
  you are going to pray. We have two prayer points this
• 2:08:00
  night and then I make an altar call.
• 2:08:03
  The first prayer point. Listen carefully.
• 2:08:07
  The first prayer point is going to be an answer to Genesis 3715
• 2:08:14
  wallowing around the field. What seekers thou?
• 2:08:20
  I tell you what you are going to tell the Lord you are looking
• 2:08:23
  for. Lord, I confess that I need the
• 2:08:26
  cars and the houses. I need the promotion, the visas.
• 2:08:32
  I confess that I need the political positions.
• 2:08:35
  But there is one thing I'm asking you that above and beyond
• 2:08:38
  these things you give me, let me find fulfillment.
• 2:08:42
  Fulfillment is what I am really looking for.
• 2:08:44
  Lift your voice and pray. Pray for the grace and the
• 2:08:48
  wisdom for fulfillment. More than results and more than
• 2:08:52
  success. Cry from the depth of your
• 2:08:55
  heart. Koinonia, fulfillment,
• 2:09:01
  fulfillment. Please pray.
• 2:09:10
  Is someone praying? You are the 1st, You are the
• 2:09:18
  street. You are the hunger leaving deep
• 2:09:24
  inside of me. You are the food that satisfies.
• 2:09:36
  You are provision for the journey of my life.
• 2:09:46
  You are everything. Keep praying, fulfillment.
• 2:09:53
  You are everything. You are the thirst, you are the
• 2:10:05
  stream. You are the hunger leaving deep
• 2:10:11
  inside of me. You are the food that satisfies.
• 2:10:23
  You are provision for the journey of my life.
• 2:10:32
  You. Are everything.
• 2:10:40
  You. Are everything.
• 2:10:47
  You are. Every pray for fulfillment at
• 2:10:57
  the end of my life. Let it not be that I just bought
• 2:11:01
  cars, acquired degrees, gave birth to children.
• 2:11:06
  May the name became a veteran politician, became a veteran in
• 2:11:12
  the military. He became a respected name,
• 2:11:16
  became a great man of God with a great congregation.
• 2:11:22
  No, give me fulfillment, O God, the gift of fulfillment.
• 2:11:29
  Garnish my destiny, garnish my achievements, garnish my results
• 2:11:34
  and my success with fulfillment. The satisfaction that leaves in
• 2:11:40
  me knowing that I am and would have lived my life effectively
• 2:11:46
  serving the purposes of the Kingdom and being a blessing to
• 2:11:50
  humanity. Don't be tired praying.
• 2:11:55
  You are the thirst, you are the stream, You are the hunger
• 2:12:05
  living deep inside of me. You are the food that satisfies.
• 2:12:17
  You are provision for the journey of my life.
• 2:12:28
  You are. Someone pray fulfillment.
• 2:12:45
  Oh, God, save me from the folly of living a profitless life,
• 2:12:51
  just pursuing things at the expense of a fulfilled life,
• 2:12:56
  pursuing names, pursuing titles at the expense of my peace.
• 2:13:06
  No physical thing, no material thing, no matter how great,
• 2:13:11
  believe me, sustains the power to give you fulfillment.
• 2:13:17
  At best, they can be expressions of success around you, and they
• 2:13:22
  are important and God will give you, but none of them can pass
• 2:13:26
  the gate of success. Hallelujah, last prayer point.
• 2:13:36
  Last prayer point, if all I was talking about was peace, then
• 2:13:44
  why did I go the route of security and variety and
• 2:13:52
  significance and love and acceptance and growth?
• 2:13:58
  Do you know why? Because even though peace is the
• 2:14:03
  highest and the greatest, in truth, from a psychological
• 2:14:07
  standpoint, these are the things that must happen to you.
• 2:14:12
  Listen to me. Many of you are depressed today
• 2:14:15
  in your life because you are craving for security.
• 2:14:20
  Many of you are depressed in your life because you are
• 2:14:24
  craving for variety. Many of you, you fight with
• 2:14:30
  everybody because you are closely guarding your fragile
• 2:14:34
  ego. You may not admit it but that is
• 2:14:37
  the reason why you are enemies to anyone.
• 2:14:39
  You can make friends with people for two weeks.
• 2:14:41
  You must fight because you should call me Apostle Joshua
• 2:14:46
  Salman and you said Joshua Salman, do you know who I am?
• 2:14:50
  I interpret for you what you are looking for.
• 2:14:53
  You are trying to say it took me a lot to piece together this my
• 2:14:57
  ego. Don't trivialize and deflate it
• 2:15:00
  through dishonor. Love and acceptance.
• 2:15:04
  There are ladies today, respectfully speaking, who will
• 2:15:08
  say yes to anything and anyone provided they they get a sense
• 2:15:13
  of acceptance. Where are the manners 30 wives?
• 2:15:19
  They will say yes, provided you will say I love you.
• 2:15:24
  Now there are people who want to grow.
• 2:15:29
  They will cut corner and corners and do anything.
• 2:15:33
  Our world of fake life and fake living is because people are
• 2:15:36
  looking for growth. Stand behind somebody's car and
• 2:15:39
  snap and say it's your car. There are drivers that have
• 2:15:44
  snapped in front of houses of their bosses.
• 2:15:46
  I'm not. I'm not demeaning what they are
• 2:15:48
  doing, what I'm saying. They just stood there and
• 2:15:50
  snapped. How many people tell lies
• 2:15:54
  respectfully? Speaking social media, people
• 2:15:56
  tell lies full of lies and nonsense or necessary nonsense
• 2:16:02
  because most people want to at least feel like they are
• 2:16:05
  growing. Pastors, what of the membership?
• 2:16:09
  We exaggerate. You can have members as small as
• 2:16:13
  part of this auditorium and say I had 50,000 people attend the
• 2:16:18
  meeting and 10,000 people were healed. 100 people got off from
• 2:16:22
  the wheelchair and nobody knows the lies are necessary.
• 2:16:29
  It may not be as a result of insincerity, but is that passion
• 2:16:34
  to show we are growing? And finally, who does not want
• 2:16:39
  his life to count? I do you do we all want to know
• 2:16:44
  that our lives count? You're going to pray and say
• 2:16:47
  Father, everything it makes for these six things to be
• 2:16:52
  represented in my life. I pray by your mercy make it
• 2:16:56
  happen for me. Please go ahead and pray have an
• 2:17:00
  understood fulfillment then God is not afraid to make you
• 2:17:03
  successful. Go ahead and.
• 2:17:05
  Pray, Lord, all that it takes, every physical expression of
• 2:17:12
  security, of dynamism and variety, whatever will help to
• 2:17:21
  enhance my sense of significance, whatever, O God,
• 2:17:27
  will help to provide that platform for love and
• 2:17:30
  acceptance, whatever will enhance my perceiving that I am
• 2:17:36
  growing. The Bible calls it the things
• 2:17:39
  that make for life ungodliness. Please pray from your depth, the
• 2:17:43
  depth of your heart. Lord, do not withhold your hand
• 2:17:47
  from making it available. For some of you it will mean a
• 2:17:49
  new house. All the same.
• 2:17:52
  For some of you it will mean a new job.
• 2:17:54
  For some of you to mean a miracle of children.
• 2:17:57
  For some of you to mean God granting you access to the
• 2:17:59
  nations. Provided you understand that
• 2:18:04
  none of them in themselves give you fulfillment, then He can
• 2:18:07
  give you the privilege of testing of that which makes for
• 2:18:11
  success by every standard. Everyone that asked, receive it.
• 2:18:17
  Lift your voice and pray. Now, with this understanding,
• 2:18:21
  you can ask for a house, you can ask for a car, you can ask for
• 2:18:26
  relationships. With this understanding, you can
• 2:18:29
  ask for a political position because yourself what is not
• 2:18:33
  tied to it? They are expressions of success,
• 2:18:38
  but you know that above and beyond them, your peace is your
• 2:18:43
  greatest asset. Ask that you will receive, so
• 2:18:47
  that your joy might be full. Someone is asking, Lord, do not
• 2:18:51
  withhold your hand away from me. Let me have manifest in my life
• 2:18:59
  the things that make for life. Ungodliness, financial supplies,
• 2:19:03
  manifestations of favor, open door, increases of all kinds, in
• 2:19:09
  ministry, in life, in family, in business.
• 2:19:12
  Send them, oh God, speedily to my life.
• 2:19:20
  Hallelujah, let me pray for you now.
• 2:19:26
  You are the 1st. You are the stream.
• 2:19:33
  You are the hunger. Leave and eat inside.
• 2:19:40
  You are the food. That side is far.
• 2:19:48
  You are provision for the journey of my life.
• 2:19:55
  You are the 1st. You are the street.
• 2:20:02
  You are the hunger living me inside of me.
• 2:20:10
  You are the fool. That side is far.
• 2:20:18
  You are provision for the journey of my life.
• 2:20:27
  You are everything. You are everything.
• 2:20:39
  Regardless the houses and the cars, you.
• 2:20:46
  Regardless the positions and the titles, you are every regardless
• 2:20:54
  the names and the achievements. You are every.
• 2:21:03
  Now listen to me. You're standing here.
• 2:21:07
  You came to church. You came to receive and while
• 2:21:15
  you heard me preach, especially when I said if you have 3 hours
• 2:21:21
  to the end of your life, do you have that peace?
• 2:21:26
  I believe with all my heart that someone listening to me whilst I
• 2:21:30
  spoke the Holy Ghost told you he's speaking to you.
• 2:21:33
  Listen to this preacher. He's probing into whether you
• 2:21:38
  have thrown away your peace or not even received it.
• 2:21:43
  Now listen everybody, what I forgot to tell you is that peace
• 2:21:49
  is not a thing. Peace is the name of a person,
• 2:21:54
  He is Jesus. Peace is more than a feeling.
• 2:22:06
  Peace is the life of God in you. You are here and you need that
• 2:22:19
  peace. Once you heard me teach you said
• 2:22:23
  this is truly why God brought me.
• 2:22:25
  For some of you, God has been walking in you for weeks.
• 2:22:28
  Maybe you've thrown away church thing.
• 2:22:30
  You're not serious. Remember, I'm not scaring you,
• 2:22:35
  but I bring to your remembrance again the three hour talk that
• 2:22:41
  there were actual people, not a parable, who left just about two
• 2:22:45
  weeks or a week ago and they had plans just like you did.
• 2:22:49
  Some of them sadly left without peace.
• 2:22:54
  Some of them today are rejoicing in a place so beautiful and
• 2:22:58
  great. Some of them are joining the
• 2:23:01
  cloud of witnesses as they cheer this preacher speaking and are
• 2:23:04
  saying as you hear his voice, if they had a chance to talk to
• 2:23:08
  you, they will not tell you, hurry up with the investments.
• 2:23:11
  If they had a chance to talk to you, some being your loved ones,
• 2:23:15
  they will say, listen to this preacher.
• 2:23:17
  Behind the foolishness of what he's saying is eternal wisdom.
• 2:23:22
  Hear me, the Prince of Peace is calling you tonight.
• 2:23:26
  Young, old, rich, poor, male, female.
• 2:23:30
  He's calling you and giving you a chance.
• 2:23:32
  I know you have a car, but you need peace.
• 2:23:36
  I know you have a house. I respect your pedigree and your
• 2:23:40
  achievements. You may be inside, you may be
• 2:23:43
  outside. Whether you are having this
• 2:23:45
  peace for the first time or you threw it away in possible for
• 2:23:49
  other things. And you're saying now I know
• 2:23:51
  this asset that the world cannot take.
• 2:23:54
  I'm going to count just one to three because of our time.
• 2:23:57
  I'd like you to come and stand here and let the Prince of Peace
• 2:24:01
  reintroduce you to a kind of peace that is greater than
• 2:24:07
  everything. I begin my counting.
• 2:24:09
  Run one, Kanonia. Are you celebrating them?
• 2:24:17
  You are the thirst, you are the street, You are the hunger
• 2:24:26
  leaving the inside of me. You are the food.
• 2:24:35
  That side is fine. You are provision for the
• 2:24:42
  journey of my life. You are everything.
• 2:24:53
  Sing it one more time. You are everything you.
• 2:24:57
  Are. We have one more minute for you.
• 2:25:10
  Come. There's still space for you.
• 2:25:13
  Win that war tonight. He will give you houses beyond
• 2:25:17
  your imagination. He will give you the things that
• 2:25:20
  money can buy beyond your imagination, but above and
• 2:25:24
  beyond it. Hear me, beloved people.
• 2:25:27
  Peace personified calls you. Peace is not a senator.
• 2:25:33
  Peace is not a president. Peace is not a bank manager.
• 2:25:37
  Peace is not a counselor. Peace is Jesus.
• 2:25:41
  He calls you to himself and he gives you himself.
• 2:25:47
  Some of you are crying. Please help that woman.
• 2:25:50
  Listen to me. I can tell you when you find
• 2:25:56
  peace, there is absolutely nothing that can take away have
• 2:26:02
  peace except you let it go. When you have a house plus
• 2:26:07
  peace, you have something worth clapping for.
• 2:26:10
  When you have a degree plus peace, you have something worth
• 2:26:14
  clapping for. When you have children in
• 2:26:17
  marriage plus peace, you have something worth clapping for.
• 2:26:20
  When you have achievements plus peace, You know why?
• 2:26:24
  Because only the achievements can be taken.
• 2:26:27
  The peace cannot be taken, not by any system, not by any
• 2:26:32
  witchcraft. Ladies and gentlemen, I salute
• 2:26:36
  all of you who are standing here before me.
• 2:26:38
  Thank you for your courage and for those who are following
• 2:26:41
  across the globe. You're probably listening in
• 2:26:44
  your office, in your home, or a group, just listening.

  I'm about to speak over your life, and then we're done for
• 2:30:44
  this service. Peace.
• 2:30:47
  When trouble flows, Jehovah sees Jehovah.
• 2:30:55
  Knows he's my peace when sorrow needs there are.
• 2:31:15
  Two prayers I want to pray for you and then we're done #1 as I
• 2:31:20
  would always do. Is supernatural exemption from
• 2:31:24
  calamities. Haven't used different examples
• 2:31:27
  about death and the rest. Listen, fear not, there is a
• 2:31:30
  covering that can come upon you and keep you secured and immune.
• 2:31:34
  First, the blood of Jesus, that blood upon the lintel, that the
• 2:31:39
  spirit of death and the avenger cannot cross you #2 is the name
• 2:31:43
  of the Lord. That is His strong tower.
• 2:31:45
  The Bible says the righteous runneth into it and they are
• 2:31:48
  saved. Are you ready to receive?
• 2:31:51
  In the name of Jesus I decree and declare over your life.
• 2:31:55
  The Waster, the Avenger, and the Spirit of death will never come
• 2:32:01
  near your dwelling. Again, I declare the Waster, the
• 2:32:07
  Avenger, and the spirit of death will never come near your
• 2:32:11
  dwelling in the name of Jesus Christ.
• 2:32:18
  And I pray. For you all that makes for life,
• 2:32:22
  ungodliness that must be represented in your life in this
• 2:32:26
  season as consolations to your Christian experience, I decree
• 2:32:31
  and declare, May the God of peace himself, the Lord of
• 2:32:34
  peace, who would give you peace by all means, may He give you
• 2:32:38
  those things richly to enjoy. Hear me every trouble of your
• 2:32:46
  destiny this week. They give up finally over your
• 2:32:49
  life. Every trouble of your children,
• 2:32:55
  trouble of your finances, spiritual or physical, they must
• 2:33:00
  give up on you this week in the name of Jesus.
• 2:33:08
  Your going out is blessed. Your coming in is blessed.
• 2:33:13
  In the air you are blessed. On the road you are blessed.
• 2:33:17
  By train you are blessed. By sea you are blessed.
• 2:33:22
  The blessing is a Garrison over you.
• 2:33:24
  In the name of Jesus Christ, find favor, find increase, find
• 2:33:31
  liftings, find speed, find breakthroughs, find testimonies,
• 2:33:39
  find signs and wonders, find increase.
• 2:33:44
  But in all of it, find peace. In the name of Jesus Christ,
• 2:33:49
  find fulfillment that after tonight go back home with joy
• 2:33:58
  knowing you have found an answer to Genesis 3715.
• 2:34:02
  When life asks you what seekest thou tell life, Don't be
• 2:34:06
  confused by my pursuit for money.
• 2:34:09
  Don't be confused by my pursuit for education.
• 2:34:12
  All of those things are wonderful.
• 2:34:13
  They will only give me success. But if you want me to answer you
• 2:34:17
  answer life. Tell them all that I seek.
• 2:34:20
  I have found in Jesus my peace. In the name of Jesus Christ, be
• 2:34:26
  blessed and honored above all men, and may the peace of God
• 2:34:31
  that surpasses all understanding carries in your heart and your
• 2:34:35
  mind. In the mighty and marvelous name
• 2:34:37
  of Jesus, Amen and Amen. After the grace, we're going to
• 2:34:42
  share the grace. Shortly afterwards I want you to
• 2:34:44
  greet one another and prophecy to them and tell them Jesus.
