The Journey Of Faith · Apostle Joshua Selman

• 0:03
  Speaker 1: I thank the Lord for the privilege. I start quietly
• 0:06
  just watching past the daily and his team of friends
• 0:12
  and great people share their experiences. And a song just
• 0:18
  came to my heart while I sat there.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: Hallelujah, dying the glory, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, dying the glory.
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: Revive us. Let's sing it one more time.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Hallelujah high Hellua.
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: Revibevers hallelujah. Amen.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: Also, dainly, thank you, thank you so much for the
• 1:06
  opportunity to be a blessing to God's people. And I
• 1:10
  salute every great man, every woman of God and the
• 1:15
  entire fellowship campas and all those who are represented. He
• 1:20
  has always a great joy to be in the presence
• 1:23
  of God. I pray that God would challenge us tonight
• 1:26
  in the name of Jesus. May I request that we
• 1:29
  ask the Lord to visit us even.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: By his word.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: In one minute, please go ahead and pray, ask the
• 1:41
  Lord to give you an encounter even by his word.
• 2:17
  Someone pray shot back up, O Sather Brandada will say,
• 2:32
  for in Jesus' name, we pray. For in Jesus' name,
• 2:37
  we pray, Father speak to our hearts tonight. And I
• 2:42
  pray in the name of Jesus that are this twenty
• 2:45
  fifth anniversary. Indeed, you will plant a new kind of
• 2:49
  seed that will grow so big, so large, and do
• 2:57
  much for the kingdom even for the next twenty five years.
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: And take all the glory in Jesus' name. Please be seated.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: I want to request that you pay very close attention
• 3:14
  to what will be sharing by the Spirit and then
• 3:19
  every other vessel that the Lord will be using in
• 3:23
  the course of this celebration, this conference. I believe with
• 3:28
  all my heart that the Lord would not call the
• 3:34
  seed of Jacob to seek him in vain. Many of
• 3:37
  us have made sacrifices to be here. I trust that
• 3:40
  God will grant us grace in Jesus' name. I have
• 3:44
  a number of things to share wherever we can stop tonight,
• 3:47
  will just pray. Understand I have one more session, and
• 3:51
  so trust God to do justice to both sessions.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: But let me just say, for.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Commencement of my discussion, second Chronicles fifteen and verse three,
• 4:05
  if it's going to be possible to project the scriptures,
• 4:08
  then I'll played with the media. Let's work together so
• 4:10
  that we can save time. Second Chronicles fifteen and verse three,
• 4:22
  it says now for a long season, Israel had been
• 4:28
  without the True God, and without a teaching priest, and
• 4:34
  without law. Please keep that scripture there. Any territory, any campus,
• 4:44
  any region is in trouble when they lack these three things.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: Number one, the knowledge of the True God, number two, the.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Presence of teaching priests, and number three laws that guide
• 5:01
  the moral conduct of the people. So every time the
• 5:05
  devil wants to destroy a territory, this is not even
• 5:08
  what I'm teaching. It was just strong in my heart
• 5:12
  to communicate this that when Satan wants to attack the
• 5:16
  program of God within a territory, these are the three
• 5:20
  things that he takes away. Number one, he takes away
• 5:25
  the moral code that helps to frame the conduct of
• 5:32
  the people within that territory.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: Number two, he will fade away the presence of teaching priests.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: So in a campus like this you will find out,
• 5:42
  as it is with many campuses across the globe, especially
• 5:46
  within this nation, you will have a set of five
• 5:50
  brand people who love God. And one of the ways
• 5:53
  that the devil fights them is he can make them
• 5:57
  distracted with their own success and not raise successors. So
• 6:01
  he will be patient until they all leave. Then you
• 6:05
  will find another Pharaoh.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: Who did not know Joseph. And that is the sad
• 6:11
  and tragic story.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: You go from campus to campus, you will find this
• 6:16
  as a consistent story that they always seem to be
• 6:20
  a set or a group, a season where there was
• 6:24
  such a move of the spirit upon the campus and
• 6:28
  then either because of persecution or because of pride, the
• 6:32
  leaders who were manning the program of God did not
• 6:36
  think about succession. Allelujah, we are not only celebrating twenty
• 6:42
  five years of the impact of a man, who are
• 6:45
  celebrating the vision of succession. Because anything lasts when you
• 6:52
  know how to pass it on from one generation. The
• 6:56
  Bible says, one generation will declare your praise to another.
• 7:00
  So I want you to pay attention to this. If
• 7:03
  you lack the knowledge of the true God. And number two,
• 7:07
  the presence of teaching priests and then laws, any society,
• 7:13
  any campus, any territory.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: Will be it will just be shadows, like walking copses.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: It is the existence of these three realities that strengthen
• 7:27
  the program of God in any territory. John Chapter seventeen
• 7:31
  numbers three. Jesus was praying and he said, this is
• 7:34
  eternal life, that they may know you, the One True God,
• 7:38
  and Jesus, whom thou has sent. So when you know God,
• 7:45
  when you have the presence of teaching priests those who.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: Can mentor and build people.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: According to Jeremiah, chapter three and verse fifteen, it says,
• 7:56
  and I will give.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: You past us or shepherds according to my heart.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: It says that they will feed you with knowledge, and
• 8:05
  they will feed you with understanding. I will give you
• 8:09
  past us according to my heart. And then you have
• 8:13
  norms laws. A man whose spirit, it says, a man
• 8:20
  who does not have a watch or a god over
• 8:22
  his spirit, is like a city that does not have walls.
• 8:25
  And any city without walls is a city that will
• 8:29
  always be a victim of external assaults. The strength of
• 8:33
  Jericho was not just the dexterity of the fighters, but
• 8:37
  that the city was so fortified. The Bible says, because
• 8:41
  the city was fortified, nothing could come in, nothing could
• 8:44
  go out. Someone learning. So I just thought to bring
• 8:48
  this as an opening remark that we must make sure
• 8:55
  that the knowledge of the One True God is preserved.
• 8:59
  We must make show that consistently across any territory, not
• 9:05
  just the campus, that we never lack the presence of
• 9:08
  teaching priests. That means you have a responsibility to pray
• 9:12
  that Lord. We should never lack teaching priests within a territory.
• 9:17
  You can know when there is an absence of teaching
• 9:20
  priests without a territory across the territory because the spiritual
• 9:24
  growth of the people will not be methodical. Everybody will
• 9:28
  just gets his way around God and coming with opinions
• 9:32
  that are not organized.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: A disciple is one who.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Is taught methodically, line upon line, precept upon precept. If
• 9:44
  we allow believers to randomly fish out their ideas about
• 9:48
  God and the faith life, we're going to end up
• 9:50
  with casualties. Unfortunately, this is the problem even in many campuses.
• 9:56
  Now we have several campuses and several individuals who the
• 10:00
  ideas about God have not been vetted from the integrity
• 10:04
  of scripture and the presence of methodical mentorship. So we
• 10:08
  have people coming up with all kinds of pseudo Christian ideas.
• 10:11
  They may not be insincere, they are just people who
• 10:14
  did not follow the pattern prescribe.
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: Jeremiah six sixteen says to stand.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: In the way and to watch, to look for that
• 10:23
  ancient part. Where is the good way? It says, and
• 10:27
  to work therein and then you will find rest for
• 10:30
  your soul.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: Allelujah.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Tonight I want to begin a discussion with us that
• 10:37
  I think will bless us. Let me title this teaching
• 10:40
  the Journey of Faith. The Journey of Faith. We're going
• 10:45
  to explore how God works with men, the key to
• 10:53
  an excelling life, the key to excellence in your spiritual adventure, Romans,
• 11:00
  Chapter five and verse fourteen. I begin my teaching now,
• 11:04
  Romans five fourteen. The Bible tells us Romance five foot adia,
• 11:38
  my apologies, Romans fifteen, Romans fifteen. I was trying to
• 11:43
  pull up my notes, Romans fifteen and verse four. Romans
• 11:50
  fifteen and verse four. Let's read it together. If you
• 11:52
  see it projected, ready read for whatsoever things were written
• 11:58
  at four time were written for our learning, so that we,
• 12:04
  through the patience and comfort of the scripture.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: Might find hope.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Please look up. The Bible says the things that are
• 12:11
  written at four time. In other words, his history is
• 12:15
  a teacher. Are we together that the things that are
• 12:18
  written a full time? Anything that is captured through history
• 12:23
  is supposed to be a template. It is for our learning.
• 12:28
  That means the way we move forward is by looking
• 12:31
  to history. Are we together now? The things that are
• 12:35
  written a full time, they are written for our learning.
• 12:39
  That from the knowledge that is gained through history, we
• 12:43
  can have the confidence to know that if God did
• 12:46
  it before, he can't do it again. If God used
• 12:50
  people before, he can use people again. If God shook
• 12:54
  you eye before, he can't do it again. The things
• 12:57
  that were written twenty five years ago, all the stories
• 13:01
  you are hearing now, it is not just a communication
• 13:04
  of the yester years of people. It says they are
• 13:07
  written for our learning. That means if you only hear
• 13:12
  history and you don't learn, you did not benefit from it.
• 13:17
  The things written a full time, they are written for
• 13:20
  our learning. Hallelujah. Next scripture Hebrews, chapter six and verse twelve.
• 13:30
  We're examining ancient spiritual patterns that can help us to.
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: Excel in our faith adventure. Here's what the Bible says.
• 13:38
  That ye be not.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Slotful, but followers of them. There are some them that
• 13:45
  are worthy of followership. It says followers of them who
• 13:49
  through faith and patience obtain the promise to not be slotful,
• 13:56
  But that in your quest to obtain the promise, in
• 13:59
  your quest to carry out an excelling faith adventure.
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: He says, to search for them.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: There are some them who are worthy of double honor,
• 14:10
  who have been used by God, and they have left
• 14:13
  Marx in the sons of time. He says, to follow them.
• 14:17
  One of the ways we learn the dealings of God
• 14:21
  is by following men who have worked with God.
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: Are we together?
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: The Bible archives in Hebrews chapter eleven, this man, and
• 14:30
  he calls them elders. And the testimony about them is
• 14:34
  that they obtained a good report.
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: It says.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Now faith is eleven, verse one Hebrews the substance of things,
• 14:42
  for he calls it the evidence of things not seen.
• 14:46
  It says, by it this faith, the elders obtain the
• 14:50
  good report. Then he begins to unravel the story of
• 14:54
  these elders, one by one by faith. Abel offered a
• 14:59
  worthy sacris by faith, this one and that one. And
• 15:02
  then he says, time will fail me to talk of Jideon,
• 15:06
  Jevter Barak, men who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness,
• 15:11
  shut the amount of lions.
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: And the Bible says, without us, they will not be complete.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: That means we're still on our way to to obtaining
• 15:20
  that status of an elder by following their path until
• 15:24
  we obtain a good.
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: Report someone learning.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: It says all this, having obtained a good report through
• 15:32
  faith received, not the promise.
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: We are the ones who will complete that equation.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: There is still a space in destiny allowing you to
• 15:42
  come that at the end of your life, when we
• 15:45
  lease the elders who obtain a good report, your name
• 15:47
  will be added to that. The next twenty five years,
• 15:50
  if Christ tarries and you gather here, it will be
• 15:53
  you laughing now, hugging one another, and say, we remember
• 15:56
  during the last twenty five years anniversary, I listened to
• 16:00
  a simon and I took that step. Look the ministry
• 16:04
  that came out of that simon. Look the business that
• 16:06
  came out of that simon is someone learning. So the
• 16:13
  Bible says history can teach us. The things written are
• 16:17
  four time there for our learning. I wrote here, and
• 16:24
  I may want you to write it to. The Bible
• 16:26
  is full of men and women whose entire faith Johnny
• 16:32
  was captured from childhood, even til they are seasons of exploits.
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: That the Bible is full of men and women.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Isn't it amazing that in many regards you will find
• 16:45
  in scripture the lives of individuals whose entire lifetime was
• 16:51
  captured in the Bible. There are a few you would
• 16:54
  just find moments of their lives, but the Bible was
• 16:57
  careful to meticulously for know through the life of certain
• 17:02
  people from childhood until they got to the senate of
• 17:06
  their exploits, and even up to their transition.
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: I wondered for many years why the Bible and God
• 17:14
  in his.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: Character would meticulously it was like following the entire lifetime
• 17:19
  of a man from birth till transition, until I found
• 17:23
  the scripture that the things written are full time. That
• 17:26
  means God literally took a zoom into a man's entire
• 17:31
  lifetime to capture moments that are rich with truth that
• 17:35
  if you can follow, it's like a compass, a spiritual
• 17:39
  compass that will lead you to the place of destiny
• 17:42
  with exactitude away Together, the Bible is full of men
• 17:49
  and women whose entire faith Johnny was captured from their
• 17:55
  childhood even til their seasons of exploits, and men orders
• 18:00
  onto their moments of transition.
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: For instance, Moses.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: For instance, Joseph for instance, Samuel for instance, David for instance, Esther,
• 18:19
  and even Jesus Christ. The Bible stands their story from childhood.
• 18:24
  In fact, for Jesus, he was so meticulous. Is started
• 18:28
  evil with his parents. Why would the Bible be so meticulous.
• 18:33
  You would think he would just zoom the most important aspect.
• 18:37
  Just tell us he died, he rose up three days.
• 18:40
  He's called savior. If you believe, go to heaven. If
• 18:42
  you don't, go to hell. And he stops there. And
• 18:45
  yet the Bible even captures census. It was as a
• 18:49
  time when census, What do I do with the census.
• 18:52
  It was that he wants you to see the conditions
• 18:55
  upon which that life and that destiny came, so that
• 18:58
  you are without excuse, are we together? For many years
• 19:04
  I wondered why the Bible would capture many details that
• 19:07
  I thought was unnecessary. This be got this and when
• 19:11
  this happened. At that time, there was no this, There
• 19:14
  was no major there. It was at a time h
• 19:17
  come on, please go straight to the point. Now I
• 19:20
  know that the things that were written at full time,
• 19:23
  every detail captured reveals something that if God opens your eyes,
• 19:28
  you would see that if a man could thrive in
• 19:31
  this kind of economic condition, political condition. Jesus was born
• 19:36
  at the time when the Roman government had dominion. They
• 19:39
  were the powers of the dead world. That means you
• 19:42
  do not have any excuse to not serve God. There
• 19:45
  were people who were born during slavery. Children were killed,
• 19:49
  for instance, the life of Moses because he knew that
• 19:53
  you would easily find an excuse, that will excuse that
• 19:56
  will stop you from rising. And you say my situation
• 20:00
  because I come from Ibadan, or I come from this,
• 20:03
  or my father and my mother died. There is a
• 20:08
  story around my family that I don't understand. And then
• 20:11
  you will refer you to someone in the Bible to
• 20:14
  say he went through the same thing, and he still
• 20:16
  conquered it. They are still suspecting whether my father is
• 20:21
  my real father or not. That's exactly what happened to Jesus.
• 20:25
  So you don't have any excuse. I don't even have
• 20:30
  any friend. During my time, something happened. All my siblings died.
• 20:34
  I came from a family where all my brothers hated me.
• 20:37
  As Joseph, all of this were captured so that no
• 20:41
  one is without excuse. Please listen very carefully. The things
• 20:45
  that are written a full time, they are for our lending.
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: Are we together? There are a few people like Abraham,
• 20:57
  where the Bible.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Just tells us straight to the point from the time
• 21:02
  they were already adults. We don't have the privilege to
• 21:05
  really know so much about their upbringing. It just tells
• 21:08
  us in summary, Terror was his father, and then Abraham.
• 21:12
  There are a number of people like that, But tonight
• 21:14
  I'm interested in the ones that the Bible took the
• 21:17
  time to tell us about their death, the circumstances around
• 21:22
  their death, meticulously showing us how they grew.
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: Are we blessed?
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: One of such people that would be worthy of us
• 21:38
  study very briefly tonight is the man Moses. Moses had
• 21:44
  the destiny of a deliverer, but then we see that
• 21:47
  Moses had a very disturbing childhood. There are many others
• 21:51
  that would touch but Moses was a very interesting personality.
• 22:01
  If you have the bad circumstances of Moses, you should
• 22:06
  have a justification to live a useless life. A child
• 22:10
  who was born and then thrown in a basket by
• 22:14
  the mother, what kind of upbringing or what kind of
• 22:19
  bad experience is more humiliating than that? Do you know
• 22:23
  what it meant for the mother to just keep him
• 22:25
  in a basket and then in a river? And say Lord,
• 22:29
  this is this one came from you. I hand him
• 22:31
  over to you. And then that is the end of imagining.
• 22:35
  As an adult, someone walks up to you and says,
• 22:38
  God wants to use you, but let me tell you
• 22:39
  a little story about how you were born. One day
• 22:42
  there was a river somewhere around it, Badad, We just
• 22:45
  saw a basket that looked like a bomb, and we
• 22:47
  opened it and found you inside. You will first want
• 22:51
  to find out who your parents are and go and
• 22:54
  meet them and say, so this is this is. And
• 23:01
  then Moses is found and taken to Egypt. And Moses
• 23:07
  was being trained to be the next pharaoh because Pharaoh's.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: Daughter loved him so much.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: And yet Moses would get to a point where the
• 23:16
  cry of destiny began to ring in his heart.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: Do you know? The life of Moses is very interesting.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: Because even if he didn't serve God from an extant point,
• 23:25
  he still would have been a success. He still subjected
• 23:28
  himself to the principles that would make any man succeed.
• 23:32
  On that Egypt, he would have been properly mentored. The
• 23:36
  only thing is that he would not serve destiny from
• 23:39
  a kingdom standpoint. He was going to be the next Pharaoh,
• 23:46
  and one thing led to the other killed an Egyptian,
• 23:50
  and he decided to take that risk with his destiny
• 23:53
  and run away. Was at the backside of the mountain
• 23:57
  for forty years. You know what it meant for Moses
• 24:01
  to give up the royalty and the honor that's tatus
• 24:04
  in Egypt. And then one time an encounter came to
• 24:11
  his life and shifted him to another dimension. To cut
• 24:15
  the long story short, that young boy who was pushed
• 24:19
  in that basket had the destiny of delivering the people.
• 24:23
  Oh my God, who knows that someone who is sitting
• 24:28
  here right now. Regardless, I don't care the story around
• 24:31
  your life. Only God knows what has been written. He said, Lo,
• 24:36
  I come in the volume of the book as it
• 24:39
  is written, as it is written.
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: Listen now, I want you to please pay attention.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: There are three seasons as far as your faith adventure
• 24:58
  and the adventure or destiny fulfillment is concerned. There are
• 25:03
  three major seasons that must be captured in your life.
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: Let me just jump there for the sake of time.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: There are three major seasons in your journey of faith,
• 25:17
  in your faith adventure as far as fulfilling the purposes
• 25:21
  of God for your life is concerned. There are three
• 25:25
  major seasons that I want you to learn. Listen, if
• 25:28
  you miss any of this season, except by the messy
• 25:32
  of God, you can be sure you will aborts destiny.
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: Are you ready?
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: The first phase and the first season of any man's
• 25:42
  life is called the season of preparation. The season of preparation.
• 26:00
  There is nobody who becomes mighty by default. There is
• 26:05
  nobody who becomes mighty just by wishing. You must pass
• 26:10
  through the first path and the first season that befalls
• 26:14
  all men, whether you utilize it or not.
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: And you see, all the seasons of a man's life
• 26:21
  are time dependent.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: That means for any time you waste time, you are
• 26:25
  wasting the unit of destiny. Listen very carefully the season
• 26:30
  of preparation. There are five things that God expects to
• 26:35
  happen to you within this season. And if those five
• 26:38
  things do not happen in that season, it cannot qualify
• 26:42
  you for your next season. If someone learning already the
• 26:46
  season of preparation, you want to be great, you want
• 26:51
  to be mighty through God.
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: You want to do much for.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: The Kingdom within your lifetime. Pay attention to your season
• 26:59
  of preparation. There are five things that must happen to
• 27:03
  you within this season. Number one, very quickly, you must
• 27:08
  discover God. Your season of preparation is your moment of encounter. Listen,
• 27:17
  most people today want to live a great life, and
• 27:20
  all they are looking for is the name of the ministry.
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: This is not how we started.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: The protocol of greatness is found in Genesis one, verse one.
• 27:28
  In the beginning, God, everybody said in the beginning, not
• 27:33
  same in the beginning.
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: Not a name in the beginning, not power in the beginning,
• 27:41
  not Ramma.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: If you violate this protocol, you're going to destroy your life.
• 27:47
  There is no great man who started with the desire
• 27:49
  to be great in the beginning.
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: God, this is the.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: First message that must be restored, especially to the generation coming.
• 27:59
  For men in the beginning, Power for many in the beginning,
• 28:03
  titles for many in the beginning platform, and the name
• 28:07
  of ministry for many in the beginning ces registration. When
• 28:14
  we started with God, it was a blind passion for
• 28:18
  the things of God. We did not even know ourselves.
• 28:21
  Some of us came from families where by our biological
• 28:27
  whatever it is, we did not even know that we
• 28:30
  had much. Your season of preparation is the time to
• 28:35
  press into God. You heard what they were saying here,
• 28:39
  passion for God. How does a student come into class
• 28:43
  and then puts his ego down and stands before people
• 28:47
  and talks about Jesus.
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: Very boldly.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: In the beginning God, in your season of preparation, that
• 28:59
  is the time where you discover God. Daniel, Chapter eleven
• 29:05
  and verse thirty two. The bee part says, but the
• 29:08
  people that do know their God. Your season of preparation
• 29:14
  is the season where God must move from being your
• 29:18
  pastor's God to being your God. He must move from
• 29:23
  being your mentors God to your God. Is the season
• 29:27
  of a personal revelation. Thank God for the leverage of
• 29:32
  what somebody told you about God.
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: But you have to now know him.
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: Lord.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: Reveal yourself to me, because when you stand before Pharaoh,
• 29:42
  he will ask you who sent you.
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: Pharaoh is not Joe.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: You can't bring your word and stand before Pharaoh and
• 29:51
  say Pharaoh, God sent me. Say which one? And you'll
• 29:55
  be surprised at you yourself. You say, I don't know.
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: Are there many? I never knew they were many. There
• 30:03
  are many people today who have started ministries, respectfully speaking,
• 30:08
  who have started all kinds of things.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: And then when the attacks and the vicissitudes of life
• 30:13
  confronts them, that is Pharaoh saying who sent you? They
• 30:17
  stand in shock and in frustration. I didn't answer that
• 30:22
  question before I started.
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: But the people who know the.
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: Girl you were my God? You are my God? How
• 30:46
  can I call on your name name not being shame?
• 30:53
  No way? AH for you, you myca, you are my ga. Listen?
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: Can I tell you? I wish? I can't tell you
• 31:15
  you will not stand before.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: Mountains and valleys in your life as anybody who has
• 31:19
  been mightily used by God.
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: We do not know the.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Mountains and the valis that stand before you from where
• 31:26
  you are to where you need to go. Your confidence
• 31:29
  is not any signature or any uncle signs for you.
• 31:32
  It is the God that you know. How will your
• 31:38
  bills come? The God that you know? How will the
• 31:42
  members come?
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: The God that you know?
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: How will you survive your name being taken to shrines?
• 31:47
  The God that you know? How are you sure that
• 31:50
  the naysay us against your life?
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: Would?
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: Ah?
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: It say all today your Lord?
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: Do I live? Told my eyes? It says, Oh, my God,
• 31:58
  I trust in you. Let me not be a shame
• 32:01
  and let my enemies not try you over me.
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: Listen very cheerfully. God is speaking to you tonight. How
• 32:15
  can I call on your name now, not in shame?
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: No way.
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: How can I bow down before you and then bow
• 32:34
  down before a man?
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: No way? Because you were.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: My God, Charla bacas sobrandege la cartosia, you were my God.
• 32:53
  Can I tell you every great man you see today,
• 32:57
  nobody give them any guarantee. Don't you think somebody said
• 33:01
  Comma will give you land. Don't you think somebody said
• 33:04
  Comma will give you members. We live in a generation
• 33:10
  of people who do not know God, clamoring for guarantees.
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: Can you stand by me as I start ministry.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: There are people who enter the campus carrying only one box,
• 33:21
  where there are scoopies of the next session who come.
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: From they did not know bland, faith, obedience. Please listen
• 33:35
  very carefully.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: Some of you God is shaking away this auxilliary scientific
• 33:41
  faith that does not produce results. Listen, I think you
• 33:56
  should work on something, maybe media. Something is plaining in
• 34:00
  the background. So season of preparation number one, you discover God.
• 34:09
  Let me tell you this when you start your journey,
• 34:12
  and this is the advantage of the campus assigned.
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: From the privilege to lend.
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: The campus is a platform that gives you the liberty
• 34:21
  to know God. There are many families because of their
• 34:24
  biases as to certain aspects of the kingdom, they may
• 34:27
  not give you the liberty to.
• 34:29
  Speaker 4: Worship and pray and do night vi jail.
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: So God uses the disguise of your academic pursuit and
• 34:35
  plants you in an atmosphere that gives you the privilege
• 34:38
  you may never get at home.
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: There are many people who will not be here if
• 34:43
  they were in their homes.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: The parents will not agree some by five o'clock six,
• 34:49
  no matter how all you are. Once you are under
• 34:52
  that convery, you must be home. So he gave you
• 34:54
  admission even though you were not qualified. You still don't
• 34:58
  know why the admission still came.
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: It is a time to know God.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: Unfortunately, the devil two is waiting for you at the
• 35:13
  gate of the campus.
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: As soon as you arrive. It would distract you with
• 35:18
  all kinds of things.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: Can I tell you ask any Most of the people
• 35:22
  you celebrate today their season of preparation started. They utilize
• 35:28
  their moments on campus. There is no great man who
• 35:32
  God used mightily that had the privilege of passing through
• 35:35
  a campus who cannot show you their places of prayer.
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: There are points of prayer, there are points of fasting.
• 35:44
  I don't see at a.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Moments where you prayed, moments where you fasted no money
• 35:53
  but you fasted, or you carried everything and gave it away,
• 35:57
  and it will look as if you are irresponsible. Let
• 36:00
  me tell you the truth. Our love for God was
• 36:03
  vetted by the purity of our pursuit. When I started
• 36:07
  working with God, I never knew that they used to
• 36:11
  give a man of God on a radium that you
• 36:13
  preach and you count Annairah. Believe me when I tell
• 36:20
  you to know that you preach and you actually put
• 36:22
  an envelope, I probably would run away. Knowing God vets
• 36:32
  the purity. It reaffirms the purity of your desire. Because
• 36:38
  if God does not do that hat check. Let me
• 36:41
  tell you, by the time the glamor of success comes, you.
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: Will not last.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: Is the reason why many today their first car is
• 36:49
  the window that leads them to petition. Their first international
• 36:53
  ministry is what drives up their prayer life because they
• 36:57
  did not stay with God to love him and to
• 37:00
  know him a boot all things times where orders sleep
• 37:06
  is why orders are weak. Lord, my bey Love.
• 37:17
  Speaker 6: It is the most feuiful among fiousands.
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: And thiousands.
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: My be love, it is the most futiful among fiousands.
• 37:41
  Speaker 4: And thoousand.
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: Yes shoes uh fi.
• 38:01
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: Most of our visions and prophetic encounters started in the
• 38:20
  place of prayer, not in the place of looking for power.
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: Send do in such for God. That's how we.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: Started receiving songs from the spirit. Send do in such
• 38:31
  for God. Ala raand Cabaratut and breaker do sa help
• 38:38
  them place Shaprakatia. Send now in power farg by the
• 38:44
  fires of His presence. No TV, no radio, no nothing,
• 38:55
  no songs but God. In the beginning God for someone.
• 39:01
  God is saying, I'm still waiting for you where you
• 39:04
  left me. You started with me, but your first invitation,
• 39:09
  they gave.
• 39:09
  Speaker 4: You an opportunity and you left me. And you believe
• 39:12
  you are doing ministry.
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: If that in the year that King Hsiah died, something
• 39:17
  must die for you to see God.
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: Your pride must die, your ambition must die.
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: When you come to him, it.
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: Takes away that which is alife in you, and He
• 39:30
  becomes your only life.
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: In the year King Husaiah died.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: I saw the Lord in the year my pride died,
• 39:41
  in the year my lost died, in the year flesh died,
• 39:47
  I saw the Lord.
• 39:54
  Speaker 4: So the first in your season of preparation, God gives.
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: You t there is a time frame to pursue God
• 40:04
  and to seek Him sincerely, And let me tell you
• 40:07
  the truth. You cannot do all the socialization you want
• 40:10
  to do and find God.
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry. I hate to be a bearer of bad
• 40:14
  news in economics. There's something God. Opportunity costs.
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: Is that true?
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: You have to make quality choices. You have to discover
• 40:30
  the God of Heaven. Lord. So this is how you are.
• 40:33
  And let me tell you this. The seed for finding
• 40:37
  God is time.
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: You will never truly encounter the God of the Bible
• 40:44
  if you cannot sow the seed of time.
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: Don't give God.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: Five minutes, put verses ten minutes prayer. I want to
• 40:54
  have an encounter of someone who has dedicated himself literally
• 40:58
  become the sacrifice on the God is not unjust, my
• 41:02
  dear people.
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: And let me tell you the truth.
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: The bankruptcy of the genuineness of your encounter will tell.
• 41:08
  Speaker 4: Laate in ministry.
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: It's true, is the reason why today there are people
• 41:13
  who are weak, very very weak.
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: They did not build capacity. Can I tell you this.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: On campus? You most likely don't have children. You most
• 41:23
  likely are not married. You most likely may not be
• 41:26
  the person's children. Your finances, that time you have you
• 41:30
  will not have it again.
• 41:31
  Speaker 4: There are today. Ask any man of God to set
• 41:34
  a sad time.
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: For God is a luxury you have to You have
• 41:38
  to go the extra mile to create certain things.
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: He say it for the journeys for someone. This is
• 41:51
  a word for you.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: Instead of running around trying to announce yourself and say
• 41:55
  you've not invited me, Thank God that nobody knows you yet,
• 41:59
  and stop wasteeing your trying to make everybody know you.
• 42:01
  Speaker 4: That is not the key to ministry. Chose.
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: Because you have advantage of Internet and YouTube, you can
• 42:06
  shout your name and be surprised. If God does not
• 42:10
  say hear ye him, you will waste your time. You see,
• 42:16
  this generation needs help. We need to redefine our priorities
• 42:21
  because we are used to celebrity living.
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: All I need to do is just conjure something. Let
• 42:26
  people just know I'm there, and that's it.
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: When the devil finds out that you are determining to
• 42:33
  destroy yourself. You will be the one to open the
• 42:35
  door for you, because it is knowing God that will
• 42:38
  help you to know which door is anointed and which
• 42:41
  door is not anointed, even if it is opened.
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: Let's hurry up because of time number two.
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: In the place of preparation, you not only discover God,
• 42:55
  you discover yourself. Ex Us chapter four, begin not reading
• 43:00
  from verse one. One of the beauties of knowing God
• 43:05
  is that in finding God, you find yourself. Man was
• 43:10
  created in the image and the likeness of God. So
• 43:13
  the only way to really know yourself and to know
• 43:16
  your true worth is to know the God that created you.
• 43:21
  Our world today suffers crossly from identity crisis, and it
• 43:25
  is a direct product of not knowing God.
• 43:29
  Speaker 4: Are we together?
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: It says, behold what manner of love the Father has
• 43:33
  best thought upon us? In that we are being called
• 43:35
  the sons of God? He says, now are we the
• 43:38
  sons of God? And it does not yet appear. Exodus
• 43:43
  chapter four and verse one.
• 43:45
  Speaker 4: Watch this.
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: Moses answered and said, behold, they will not believe me,
• 43:50
  nor hawken onto my voice, for they will say the
• 43:54
  Lord had not appeared onto you. Are you seeing what
• 43:56
  he's saying. Now, they will believe you, But me, the vessel,
• 44:01
  there is a problem with me. They are not going
• 44:04
  to believe me.
• 44:07
  Speaker 4: That's true.
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: And the Lord said onto him, what is in your hand?
• 44:10
  And he said, a rod will come there shortly verse three.
• 44:15
  And he said, cast it on the ground. He cast
• 44:17
  it on the ground. It became a serpent. Look at
• 44:19
  God subjecting subjecting Moses through several experiences verse four. And
• 44:27
  the Lord said, put your hand and take it by yourself,
• 44:29
  by the tail.
• 44:30
  Speaker 4: You know what he was doing to him. I will
• 44:32
  explain to you. Shortly it became a rod in his hand.
• 44:35
  Verse five.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: It says that they may believe that the Lord, God
• 44:40
  of their fathers, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob,
• 44:43
  had appeared onto thee Verse six. And the Lord said
• 44:46
  furthermore onto him, put down thy hand in thy bosom.
• 44:50
  And he put his hand, and when he took it back,
• 44:52
  it was as lepros as snow verse seven. And he said,
• 44:56
  put thy hand into thy bosom again. And he put
• 44:59
  his hand into his possum. He plopped it out, and behold,
• 45:02
  it turned like his flesh now verse eight. And it
• 45:07
  shall come to pass if they will not believe thee
• 45:11
  Neither hackn to the voice of the first sign, that
• 45:14
  they will believe the voice of the letter sign. Now
• 45:16
  follow carefully verse nine, and it shall come to pass
• 45:19
  if they will not believe these two signs, neither hackn
• 45:22
  onto thy voice, that thou shalt take water out of
• 45:25
  the river, pour it upon dry land, and the water
• 45:29
  which thou was taken shall become blood. While reading to
• 45:32
  a verse twelve thereabout, I want to point out something
• 45:35
  for you, and Moses said, unto the Lord, watch this. Now,
• 45:38
  look at all the things God was doing to Moses. Remember,
• 45:42
  God was saying, Moses, you do it, participat in that
• 45:45
  process of the supernatural, so that you will believe in yourself.
• 45:49
  I want to do something with you so that that
• 45:52
  doubt and fear you have will dry up in his presence.
• 45:56
  And Moses is still complaining, Oh, my Lord, I am
• 46:01
  not eloquent. It is only when you know him that
• 46:05
  you will know you, because if you don't know what
• 46:08
  God has made out of you, the devil would tell
• 46:11
  you many things about you. You mean, it's you that
• 46:14
  God is going to send out of this family. You mean,
• 46:18
  God does not have any other preacher that you will
• 46:20
  come and carry you. But in the place of knowing God,
• 46:23
  he will refuse something to you about yourself that would
• 46:27
  give you confidence regardless. Moses said, Oh, my Lord, I
• 46:32
  am not eloquent. Neither heretofore nor since down has spoken
• 46:39
  on to thy servant. But I am slow of speech
• 46:42
  and on his slow tongue. Can you imagine this? So
• 46:46
  imagine Moses' mindset about himself. God is saying I want
• 46:51
  to use you, and is bringing everything. Oh this, you
• 46:56
  see God, you want to send me.
• 46:58
  Speaker 4: I am not this. I am not that.
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: I am not this verse eleven. And the Lord said,
• 47:05
  unto him who had made man's mouth. In other words, listen, listen.
• 47:10
  You're looking down on yourself is a mock cret to
• 47:13
  my artistry and creativity. I took time to create you,
• 47:17
  and every time you look at yourself and said, God,
• 47:19
  you didn't try enough.
• 47:20
  Speaker 4: If only you added this to me, I can be
• 47:23
  a better preacher. Do you know what this means?
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: If Moses had been patient with God to believe everything
• 47:34
  God was telling him, he would not need somebody to
• 47:37
  help be his mouth peace. I believe by this God
• 47:40
  had plans to heal him and correct him. But Moses said, well,
• 47:43
  I believe this about you brought this limitation, and said, fine,
• 47:47
  since you do not believe I can solve this, I
• 47:49
  will bring somebody to remedy it. Who had made man's mouth,
• 47:55
  or who make it the tomb or death, or the
• 47:58
  saying or the blind?
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: Have not I the Lord? The Lord was challenging him
• 48:03
  verse twelve, give us verse twelve.
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth
• 48:11
  and teach them what thou shalt say. Listen, when you
• 48:18
  encounter God, the next thing that happens is that you
• 48:22
  must discover yourself.
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: Who am I?
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: What did God make out of my life? Let me
• 48:30
  tell you who you are? John one six. These are
• 48:37
  the realities that you must find in your faith adventure.
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: John one, verse six.
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: Please help us media, There was a man, Send from God. Everybody,
• 48:49
  please shout the say send from God one more time.
• 48:54
  Now mention your name and say send from God.
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: Time.
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: Let the devil he hate Joshua Salman sent from God.
• 49:13
  Not a eurobad person, not an imbod person, not a house,
• 49:17
  a person that only defines the geography of your arrival.
• 49:21
  Speaker 4: But he says, there was a man. I am a man,
• 49:25
  But that's not all about me. I was sent from God.
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: It matters where I came from, because he that comments
• 49:32
  from above is above all.
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: That means.
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: Knowing that I was sent from God already gives me
• 49:42
  the courage to know that every mountain that stands before me,
• 49:45
  I know that I saw My origin is an advantage?
• 49:55
  Speaker 4: Are we learning now? Listen, let me tell you the truth.
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: We live in a the world today that can bully
• 50:01
  you psychologically. You will find yourself in the midst of
• 50:06
  people who may think they are richer than you, wiser
• 50:10
  than you, better than you. As a man of God.
• 50:13
  If you don't know who you are, you cannot be
• 50:15
  a good pastor. Insecurity will make you destroy your people.
• 50:19
  You will see people wealthier than you, smarter than you.
• 50:23
  You must be able to celebrate them without feeling intimidated,
• 50:26
  because you have discovered that if not for anything, as
• 50:30
  an advantage in your life, you are sent from God.
• 50:33
  Someone prophesies says, sent from God. Also, you don't know
• 50:39
  my siageypre I simple times with you, and we pray
• 50:42
  that it will rise. But in the interim, no matter
• 50:45
  what goes wrong, never forget this sent from God.
• 50:52
  Speaker 4: He said, when I sent you lackest now anything.
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: There is abundance that follows being sent, not just abundance
• 51:01
  of money, abundance of grace.
• 51:03
  Speaker 4: And God is able to make all grace. So do
• 51:11
  not laugh at what I do not seem to have.
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: Remember I am sent Ah carry that mentality.
• 51:19
  Speaker 4: I am sent.
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: I have only two members, but I am still sent.
• 51:25
  I know that I don't have a job yet ten
• 51:27
  years as a graduate, but I am sent. Listen, this
• 51:33
  is very simple, but this is how God delivered some
• 51:37
  of us from all kinds of complexes, regional complexes, whatever
• 51:43
  kinds of complexes. When he met Gideon in Judges chapter
• 51:46
  five and six, he met a young man who are
• 51:49
  the destiny of a warrior on a deliverer. But he
• 51:52
  was hiding, and he said, oh, down, mighty mano. Felia said,
• 51:56
  don't flatter me. I know where I come from, the
• 51:59
  least in my father's house, and even the last one.
• 52:05
  Waiting for social media, or waiting for fans, or waiting
• 52:10
  for individuals to tell you who you are, it's already
• 52:13
  a disaster. On arrival, they looked at Jesus and called
• 52:19
  him a murderer. They looked at Jesus and said you
• 52:22
  lied that you would destroy the temple, but he stood
• 52:25
  with confidence. It is powerful to know who you are.
• 52:31
  They said you were king of the Jews, and there
• 52:34
  was no pressure to defend himself. Some said, they said
• 52:39
  you are this and that. The Only time he spoke
• 52:44
  was when Vanto's pilate said, do you know I have
• 52:47
  the power to set you freeze?
• 52:49
  Speaker 6: Ah?
• 52:49
  Speaker 4: You have gone too far.
• 52:50
  Speaker 3: Ah.
• 52:52
  Speaker 4: No man can have anything except it is given. It
• 52:54
  is within my power to call a legion of angels.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: My silence is a strategy to regain dominion for the earth,
• 53:00
  not weakness.
• 53:02
  Speaker 4: Don't confuse my silence for weakness. I know who I am.
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: Can I tell you the truth? When you know who
• 53:10
  you are as a man of God, and I say,
• 53:12
  a great man, you will know when to be silent
• 53:15
  over needless battles. And you may be persived as weak,
• 53:18
  but you stand as strong because you know who you are.
• 53:21
  If someone looks at you and say, is it not
• 53:23
  your useless father, I remember you. You come from me badon,
• 53:27
  you come from this place. I hope you know that
• 53:29
  your family where you come from, people who don't rise
• 53:32
  and last can anything good come out of Nazareth? And
• 53:36
  you don't need to insult them. They are speaking their truth.
• 53:39
  But your truth, which is the truth according to scripture,
• 53:44
  is that you are a man send from God. Regardless
• 53:51
  the family I came through, send from God. The womb
• 53:57
  of your mother only gave your spirit a body. But
• 54:01
  believe me, if you stay with God and it convinces
• 54:04
  you that you are sent from God, then he can
• 54:07
  take you to the nations. Jeremiah Chapter one, place and
• 54:10
  verse five, Am I wasting your time? Shallah Kusa brand
• 54:15
  kappa lasuzia. This was the Lord, God of Heaven speaking
• 54:20
  to a young boy who would later become become a great,
• 54:24
  mighty prophet, But as a little boy, he was giving
• 54:28
  him a little history. He said, before I found in
• 54:31
  the belly, God knows you, but do you know yourself?
• 54:38
  And before thou camest fourth out of the womb, I
• 54:41
  sanctified thee and ordain thee to be a prophet to
• 54:45
  the nations. Verse six, here was the lamentation of an
• 54:49
  ignorant boy. He said, Ah, Lord God, behold, I cannot
• 54:54
  speak why, for I am a rebuke coming comes in immediately.
• 55:01
  Verse seven. The Lord takes the time to rebuke him immediately,
• 55:05
  He said, say not. I am a child. Say not,
• 55:09
  I am a Nigerian. Say not I am weak. Say
• 55:13
  not I am a female. Say not I am disadvantaged.
• 55:17
  Say not, I can't speak English very well. Say not,
• 55:20
  I am last born. Say not, I am an offer.
• 55:24
  If you really want to know who you are, there
• 55:26
  are some say not. You must know what to say,
• 55:32
  and you must know what to not say. Let the
• 55:34
  Redeemed of the Lord say so. Let the blessed of
• 55:38
  the Lord say so. Let the Great of the Lord
• 55:41
  say so. Because in this kingdom, whatever you declare, whatever
• 55:47
  you name, that is what it becomes. And whatsoever Adam
• 55:50
  called it, that was the name thereof Are we together?
• 55:58
  God never called the people grasshoppers. Certain never called the
• 56:05
  people grasshoppers. They called themselves. They said we were like
• 56:09
  grasshoppers sent from God. Let's rush to number three very quickly.
• 56:21
  We're still in the season of preparation.
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: Of five things.
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: Number one, you must discover God. Number two, you must
• 56:30
  discover yourself. Number three, for sake of time, you must
• 56:33
  discover your giftings and abilities.
• 56:37
  Speaker 4: Ah this one. This is one of the advantages of
• 56:42
  the pursuit of God in the place of preparation, especially
• 56:47
  through service service in the House of God.
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: Many people on campus did not even know they were
• 56:54
  going to be ministers. It was as they served they discovered.
• 57:00
  So I can sing, Okay, there's an opportunity to go
• 57:03
  to the worship team. From there, some of them to
• 57:06
  their leading nations in worship. You must discover your gift, things,
• 57:13
  and potentials, because those are the tools that God will
• 57:17
  use to bless the nations through you. Ex Hodors Chapter four.
• 57:21
  Will read verse two, and then will jump to verse seventeen.
• 57:25
  Exdors Chapter four. Let's hurry up, please, he says. And
• 57:29
  the Lord said, unto him, what is that in your hands?
• 57:33
  And he said, a rod? Please look up. Do not
• 57:36
  begin your journey of destiny if you do not know
• 57:39
  what is in your hands. God will never send you
• 57:45
  unless he reviews to you what you are carrying. Verse seventeen.
• 57:49
  Moses called what was in his hand a rod, a
• 57:53
  gift and ability to sing. I can just talk well,
• 57:57
  and people listen to me. And when he's submitted that road,
• 58:01
  listen carefully. There's no time I would have shown you
• 58:04
  how the rod is converted from just a rod to
• 58:08
  a rod that does signs and wonders. The first thing
• 58:11
  Moses did with that rod. Is that he's surrendered that
• 58:14
  rod before the presence of God. If you cannot lay
• 58:18
  down your road to serve God, it cannot become a
• 58:22
  rod that does signs and wonders.
• 58:23
  Speaker 4: It will remain a road.
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: There are many people who have the gift of singing leadership,
• 58:32
  and it stops there. Nothing supernatural, nord, nothing extraordinary.
• 58:37
  Speaker 4: The touch of His presence has not come upon it.
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: Can I tell you, next time you go to worship God,
• 58:43
  carry everything that is an advantage and worship him too.
• 58:48
  Speaker 4: Don't worship him and your gifts stand aside. Carry the gift.
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: Let the gift worship him, Let your wisdom worship him,
• 58:55
  Let your beauty worship him. Everything that is an advantage
• 58:58
  in your life is the word that to be used
• 59:01
  Verse seventeen. Thou shalt take this singing ability. Thou shalt
• 59:08
  take this grace to preach. Thou shalt take this intellectual prowess.
• 59:13
  Thou shalt take this grace from media. Thou shalt take
• 59:17
  this ability. Thou shalt take your first class, your two one,
• 59:22
  whatever it is. Wherewith that means every time there is
• 59:26
  a need for signs and wonders, don't just be crying
• 59:29
  up and down.
• 59:30
  Speaker 4: Remember the rod.
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: Every time a generation ignores you, God will say, remember
• 59:36
  when we were praying and fasting, Where is that ability
• 59:38
  to profess high that I gave you?
• 59:41
  Speaker 4: Now is the time to bring it out. That is
• 59:43
  the word of God in your.
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: Handra shalika, so brad tia, mandy, great talkata were going
• 59:55
  to pray. I just saw, like like Ege people, I
• 59:58
  saw the anointing coming on them. Please help them. Eight
• 1:00:01
  of you, I just saw lights coming upon you. Please
• 1:00:05
  help them who have some time to pray what I
• 1:00:07
  needed to get this in the name of Jesus that
• 1:00:10
  graz There is.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 4: A patting of something within your spirit.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 7: Mana just paying the spirit in one minute shatatas m
• 1:00:24
  braca lekata ah.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: There is a rod of God in your hand. You
• 1:00:30
  may look like you are ordinary. You are not just
• 1:00:33
  an orha. You are not just a worshiper. You are
• 1:00:36
  not just a campos president. You may start serving tables,
• 1:00:41
  but there is grace upon you. Please sit down, Please
• 1:00:49
  sit down. Just help those on that you annoyting. Everybody
• 1:00:53
  say a rod. Can I tell you anybody who tells
• 1:00:58
  you he was sent by God, tell him show me
• 1:01:00
  the road that he gave you. Your road is what
• 1:01:06
  decides your relevance when you stand before Pharaoh ah mosies,
• 1:01:13
  What do you have in your hand? Are not no
• 1:01:15
  reability to do good designs?
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 4: What do you have?
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: I found out that there's an unusual grace every class
• 1:01:23
  I go to. I'm a class monitor. Everywhere I go,
• 1:01:26
  I am a leader. But is it really something? Do
• 1:01:30
  not make the mistake of the wife of the prophets
• 1:01:33
  who said I have nothing except.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 4: Everything all refined looks small a rod? Hear me.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: There are people who are too big to bring their
• 1:01:46
  gifts and serve in the house of God. There are
• 1:01:53
  many people who began to serve God with sincerity of heart.
• 1:01:57
  They never knew they would be preachers. I didn't even
• 1:02:00
  know the fellowship to be handed over to them, or
• 1:02:03
  one day they will become head of this. There are
• 1:02:05
  people who learn leadership while they salve. They learn discipline
• 1:02:10
  while they salm. They became prayer warriors while they salm.
• 1:02:13
  Some of them were not even born again when they
• 1:02:15
  came on campus. But psalm is listen, if you have
• 1:02:19
  found your rod, it's time to throw that word before
• 1:02:23
  his feet and to say Rod you would join me
• 1:02:26
  in saving him. I don't know what to do with you,
• 1:02:29
  but let his presence give definition everything David had. He
• 1:02:36
  used it to become a mighty man. His ability to sing,
• 1:02:40
  he used it to write songs, his ability as a warrior.
• 1:02:44
  He brought victory for Israel. Please don't forget this teaching tonight.
• 1:02:52
  There are some of you who are saying, apostle, God
• 1:02:54
  anointed the great people, But there is nothing about me.
• 1:02:58
  The only thing about me is that I am beautiful.
• 1:03:00
  Asks Esther, asks Esther, how beauty can take someone to
• 1:03:05
  a palace and give her the leverage to deliver God's
• 1:03:09
  people from the wickedness and the plot of her man,
• 1:03:12
  hear me.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 4: Everything God has given you.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: However, it cannot serve the nations if it does not
• 1:03:23
  serve God.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 4: First, the first person the word served was not Israel.
• 1:03:29
  The first person the road sud was God.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 3: He threw it.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: God said, if you believe in me through that world
• 1:03:35
  at my presence and Moses.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 5: Ah, I cast my crown before the high ra realty.
• 1:03:50
  I am mandane.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 4: Before your glorious.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 5: Magesty has mycround before.
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 3: The harawalty. I am mandam before.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: Hear me let me give you an assignment tonight when
• 1:04:22
  you go back home, go on, write down everything that
• 1:04:26
  constitutes an advantage in your life. While you are writing it,
• 1:04:29
  the devil will be saying you are joking. Write it
• 1:04:32
  if you are beautiful, write it. You are handsome, write it,
• 1:04:35
  you are intelligent. Write it an unusual grace to speak.
• 1:04:39
  Write it everything that is an advantage. You are writing
• 1:04:42
  your rods. These are the roads that God will use
• 1:04:45
  to do market things, leadership ability. Write it you found
• 1:04:52
  out there is a prophetic grace within you. Don't let
• 1:04:55
  anybody despise you refined or not.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 3: Just write it.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: You are a prophetic worshiper. Every time you lift up
• 1:05:05
  that voice, something happens. Write it down. Hear me, listen,
• 1:05:09
  let me teach you what you are doing. The mystery
• 1:05:13
  of what you will be doing is found in Philemon one,
• 1:05:15
  verse six. It says that the communication of your faith
• 1:05:19
  might be effectual through the acknowledging of every good thing
• 1:05:24
  that is in you. In Christ, you must acknowledge every
• 1:05:30
  good thing. You have acknowledged all the bad things that
• 1:05:33
  are in you. That the communication of your faith might
• 1:05:39
  become effectual by the acknowledging.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 4: Of every good thing which is in you in Christ.
• 1:05:46
  Sit down, let's make progress.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 1: So the season of preparation affords you the opportunity to
• 1:05:53
  number one, to know God, to discover God, number two,
• 1:05:58
  to know yourself, number three, to find that rod in
• 1:06:02
  your hand, your giftings and your ability number four.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 4: Very quickly.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: You discover and receive your assignments during these periods of preparation.
• 1:06:16
  The assignment that will represent the mandate of your life comes.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 4: During the period of preparation.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: Assignments can be discovered and assignments can be received. Assignments
• 1:06:29
  can be discovered. If you are David, you may not
• 1:06:33
  receive your assignment. You may discovery it as you are
• 1:06:36
  taking food. David, write it for reference. We may not
• 1:06:40
  have the time to read as we see in the
• 1:06:43
  Life of David. First Sawel chapter seventeen. When you read
• 1:06:48
  from verse seventeen to fifty two. David was sent to
• 1:06:53
  go and give his brother's food because they were in
• 1:06:56
  the battleground. That was when he went, and he saw
• 1:06:59
  this busy roaring, and he said, what is the meaning
• 1:07:02
  of this? The nation of Israel were all scared, including
• 1:07:06
  King's Hall. And he said, listen, I am able to
• 1:07:09
  take this guy. They said, who brought these stupidple to
• 1:07:12
  the battlefield?
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 3: Now?
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: And he said, no, no, no, no, no, no, don't
• 1:07:15
  mock me. I have discovered the rod in my hand.
• 1:07:18
  While I was in the wilderness, I was not just
• 1:07:20
  tending sheep. I went to tenship, but in tending sheep,
• 1:07:25
  I discovered I had the ability to kill anything. And
• 1:07:28
  listen to me, if you allow me to use my rod.
• 1:07:34
  When he used that rod, he brought Goliath down and
• 1:07:38
  that began the journey that would.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 4: End up leading him to become the King of Israel.
• 1:07:43
  Can I tell you this.
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 1: You must trust God for grace to find your place
• 1:07:49
  in destiny. Stop saying people don't like me. Nobody is
• 1:07:53
  pursuing me. Nobody will look for you for nothing until
• 1:07:56
  you find your place. Lo I come in the volume
• 1:08:00
  of the book, as it is written of me to.
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 4: Do thy will. How about Joseph.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: If you are Joseph, you would not only discover your call,
• 1:08:11
  you will receive it.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 4: Genesis, chapter thirty seven, from verse three. Remember the story.
• 1:08:18
  The story is three to eleven. Genesis thirty seven from
• 1:08:21
  three to eleven.
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: When the young boy went to go and sleep, the
• 1:08:25
  Bible says the father gave him a coat of many callers.
• 1:08:30
  And then verse four, let's see how far we can
• 1:08:32
  go that when they saw that the father loved him,
• 1:08:36
  they could not speak to him. They started getting angry
• 1:08:39
  with him. Five he said that he dreamed a dream.
• 1:08:42
  Everybody said, dream the dream. Destiny can open up to
• 1:08:46
  you in a dream. He dreamed a dream. And when
• 1:08:50
  he told his brethren, they hated him them all. Verse six,
• 1:08:54
  What was the dream? Let's go to verse seven. Behold
• 1:08:59
  we were binding in the field, and lo, my shift
• 1:09:02
  arose and stood upright. And behold, your shift stood round
• 1:09:06
  about and made obey since to my sheep. Can you
• 1:09:09
  imagine that? And the brethren said, so you are going
• 1:09:13
  to rein over us? Will you have dominion over us?
• 1:09:16
  They hated him the more, and you would think that
• 1:09:18
  would be the end of it. Verse nine we're reading
• 1:09:20
  to eleven. He had yet another dream. Be careful when
• 1:09:27
  you dream the same thing again. Destiny is speaking to you.
• 1:09:32
  I went to bed, and I saw myself on a
• 1:09:34
  crusette ground, healing the sick and doing many things. I
• 1:09:38
  shrugged it off two hundred level. That dream has come again.
• 1:09:42
  That is Destiny knocking at your door.
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 4: Are we together? Very important.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: If you are Jeremiah, as we saw in chapter one
• 1:09:57
  of Jeremiah, from verse five to twelve, God will come
• 1:10:00
  to you and give you that unique revelation that you
• 1:10:04
  are being ordained to be a prophet even onto the nations.
• 1:10:10
  Don't forget what you're discussing. The first thing that happens
• 1:10:14
  during your season of preparation is that you discover or
• 1:10:18
  you receive your assignment. Listen, if you graduate from school
• 1:10:24
  with only a degree certificate, you did not maximize your stay.
• 1:10:28
  You should graduate on one hand with your degree certificate,
• 1:10:32
  on another.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 4: Hand, with a clever blueprint about your destiny. Now you
• 1:10:36
  are graduate.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: Indeed, there are many people who hated God while they
• 1:10:42
  were on campus, and they thought everybody who loved God
• 1:10:46
  was a new Zans to civilization. Some of them till
• 1:10:48
  today don't have jobs. Till today, all that they had
• 1:10:51
  filled them. All that they have is a rod, a
• 1:10:54
  rod with no presence, a rod with no glory. I
• 1:10:58
  can tell you with all humility, I have seen people
• 1:11:01
  today who you would see many years ago and almost
• 1:11:04
  think that there will be champions within one year. Can
• 1:11:06
  I tell you if the Lord does not build the house,
• 1:11:11
  the laborer's labor. But in vain, if the Lord does
• 1:11:14
  not watch over a city, the watchmen watch it. But
• 1:11:17
  in vain is that it is vain to wake up
• 1:11:19
  early and to sleep late at night, only to eat
• 1:11:23
  the bread of sorrow.
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 4: It is only God that can give his beloved sleep. Allelujah.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 1: The pursuit of God should never be seen as a
• 1:11:36
  nuisance to any other pursuit.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 4: No. In the beginning, God, are we together?
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: Number five, your season of preparation. What is the final
• 1:11:53
  thing that is expected when you are in that season?
• 1:11:57
  You build capacity and prepare for destiny. The fifth thing
• 1:12:04
  that you do is you build capacity and prepare for destiny.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 4: Your seasonal preparation is not a time for manifestation.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: You have an assignment under God to build capacity, spiritual capacity,
• 1:12:21
  intellectual capacity.
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 4: Let me tell you this.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: I remember many years ago, I'll have a rechargeable, disrechargeable lantern.
• 1:12:32
  Most of what we did with our money was to
• 1:12:35
  buy food and tapes. That's it, volumes and volumes. And
• 1:12:40
  when Barsadela was talking about borrowing things, I was just
• 1:12:45
  laughing because those times you will borrow books, borrow tapes.
• 1:12:49
  The moment you looked at the young man. The first
• 1:12:51
  thing you were looking at was his hands, not his watch.
• 1:12:53
  What book are you carrying?
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 4: Wow? Who wrote this one?
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 1: You will collect it immediately and plead for three days
• 1:13:00
  because it's not your own, so you don't have the luxury.
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 4: Of keeping it and waking up. You finish that very
• 1:13:06
  quickly and submit it.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: Can I tell you if you turn aside in the
• 1:13:11
  day of battle, it's because your strength is small for
• 1:13:15
  someone This is a prophetic word for you. You are
• 1:13:17
  in a ceasing of preparation. Please buide capacity. When you build.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 4: Capacity, you don't build capacity on stage. You take out time.
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 1: That is the time to hide yourself behind the veil.
• 1:13:30
  That is the time to pray when others are sleeping.
• 1:13:33
  That is the time to fast. You will not die.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 4: Capacity. That is the time to lend scripture, discipline yourself.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: Hold onto the horns of the altar, in the place
• 1:13:45
  of prayer, in the place of fasting, in the place
• 1:13:48
  of learning.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 4: Any useful information that can help you.
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 1: You find a book on leadership, that's your opportunity to
• 1:13:55
  read it. Why Because someday God is going to be
• 1:13:58
  trusting you with a global meaning and it to take
• 1:14:01
  more than annointing to run that ministry. You need to
• 1:14:04
  understand what it takes. Oh, I don't know so much
• 1:14:07
  about relationships. You find a book on relationships, how to
• 1:14:11
  keep people, how to have great friends and great associations.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 3: You now read it.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 4: You are building capacity. Look or please, Jesus spent thirty
• 1:14:22
  three and a half years on earth.
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 1: You can break that those thirty three and a half
• 1:14:27
  years into four compartments. There's no time to teach it
• 1:14:30
  this night. But do you know that a major part
• 1:14:33
  of Jesus's life was not.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 4: Spent doing ministry. It was spent preparing for ministry.
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 1: From age twelve he was already in the temple un
• 1:14:43
  till aged thirty when he came to be baptized and
• 1:14:47
  ordained by John. And he used three and a half years.
• 1:14:50
  Look at the ratio of preparation to manifestation. Twelve thirty
• 1:14:57
  minus twelve is eighteen years, at least eighteen solid years
• 1:15:02
  of preparation. How about the apostles From the time he
• 1:15:06
  called them as disciples, he kept mentoring and building them,
• 1:15:10
  not importation. Look at the ratio of teaching to importation
• 1:15:15
  three years to one night. Importation will not profit you much.
• 1:15:22
  If your mind is not full of useful information. It
• 1:15:26
  is the level of your transformation and the quality of
• 1:15:29
  information you have that gives the power upon your credence.
• 1:15:33
  There is a way you can be helped them. Please,
• 1:15:36
  there is a way that you can be anointed. You
• 1:15:38
  will look like you're a fake profit even though you
• 1:15:40
  are genuine. Why because the level of intellectual soundness spiritual
• 1:15:46
  soundness that will help you man over the anointing in
• 1:15:50
  a scriptural way is not there. There are many genuine
• 1:15:53
  people who look like devils, not because they are bad,
• 1:15:57
  but because they did not take out time to invest
• 1:15:59
  in non There is no problem with the oil. The
• 1:16:04
  problem is the pot. The oil will always assume the
• 1:16:07
  shape of the vessel. If the vessel is small, it
• 1:16:11
  will make great oil look small.
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 4: It's time to borrow vessels. It's a borrow, not a few.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: Listen for some of you after tonight, just post a
• 1:16:21
  bit with all these buying shoes and hair and all
• 1:16:24
  of that, go to a bookstore and say, for God's sake,
• 1:16:27
  may I be fair to my destiny and my children
• 1:16:30
  and my children's children.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 3: You buy the truth and you sell it.
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 4: Not You can't have a room full.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 1: Of clothes and shoes, and you have one small gideons
• 1:16:41
  International Bible that was giving you as a gift.
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 4: That only has a new Testament.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 1: They give those things to encourage seinners to come to
• 1:16:51
  the saving knowledge of God. You that wants to now
• 1:16:53
  lead a church who will sit down with you when
• 1:16:57
  they're all better than you.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 4: Let's be very honest.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: There is a level of leadership that is leadership by results.
• 1:17:10
  We'll find somewhere to stop season of preparation. Can I
• 1:17:14
  tell you run away from anybody who does not have
• 1:17:18
  a history of this season of preparation.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 4: I don't care how great, I don't care how mighty.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 1: If you cannot find a track record of a season
• 1:17:28
  of preparation, something is faulty with that pattern. You don't
• 1:17:34
  have to fight, you don't have to condemn, you don't
• 1:17:37
  have to const trouble what I can tell you the
• 1:17:40
  moment your structure is not built on this pattern.
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 4: Something will eventually happen.
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 1: That which I tell you in the secret place, that
• 1:17:51
  is what you will declare upon the mountaintop. Away Together
• 1:17:56
  you discover God and you know him. You discover yourself.
• 1:18:00
  You discover your giftings and your abilities. You discover your
• 1:18:05
  place in life and destiny. Then you now begin to
• 1:18:08
  build capacity, refining your gifts. Now is the time if
• 1:18:14
  you need to go for training, go whether spiritual or secular.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 4: Stretch yourself to.
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 1: The limits so that you are not a workman that
• 1:18:24
  needs to stand in shame, angry with people. And there
• 1:18:27
  are many people who miss these seasons. They were laughing
• 1:18:31
  at those who were preparing. It took over one hundred
• 1:18:35
  years to build the act that saved the people for
• 1:18:38
  over forty It was for forty forty days at thereabout
• 1:18:43
  rain that was coming for forty days caused a lifetime disaster.
• 1:18:48
  And yet it took over one hundred years to build
• 1:18:51
  that act. Everybody's a preparation. Can I tell you Lamentations?
• 1:18:57
  Chapter three, I think verse twenty seven or so it
• 1:19:00
  says it is good for a man to bear his
• 1:19:03
  yoke in his youth. Destiny is time targeted. Every time
• 1:19:09
  is not convenient. If you know how to play football
• 1:19:12
  at eighty, you play in your house alone, no matter
• 1:19:15
  how professional. Even if it is true that you are
• 1:19:18
  greater than the greatest footballer, you just don't have that advantage.
• 1:19:22
  So then teach us to number our days that we
• 1:19:25
  may apply our hearts on to wisdom. Let me introduce
• 1:19:30
  the second season, and then we wrap up for tonight
• 1:19:32
  would take the third together with the importation probably tomorrow.
• 1:19:37
  The second season in your life are you ready for?
• 1:19:40
  It is called the season of testing or proving. I
• 1:19:47
  told you there are three seasons in your faith adventure.
• 1:19:50
  Number one the season of preparation. I least that for
• 1:19:55
  you the five things that must be captured in this season,
• 1:19:58
  so that if you know you are in your season
• 1:20:00
  of preparation right now, you go back and do this
• 1:20:03
  as a checklist. What am I missing?
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 3: Ah?
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 4: I love God, but I have not discovered myself. I
• 1:20:09
  need to do it first.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: And in a strange way, God seems to program the
• 1:20:16
  growth process of many to match the duration of your
• 1:20:19
  stay on campus, so that if you start seeking God
• 1:20:22
  well by the time you are leaving, you will not
• 1:20:24
  live in shame because there are certain atmospheres and opportunities
• 1:20:28
  you may not easily find again. For instance, brethren praying
• 1:20:33
  all the time, even when you are going down spiritually,
• 1:20:36
  you are strolling around somewhere you see people praying. The
• 1:20:39
  Holy Gos will use their prayer to say, but this
• 1:20:42
  is not our agreement one hundred level.
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 4: This was what happened in three hundred level. You can quickly.
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: Repent and get back, but you will get to a place,
• 1:20:52
  a world out there where even in your back sleeping stage,
• 1:20:55
  you are the most spiritual person.
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 4: Please write this the season of preparation.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 1: We have to wrap up first Samuel seventeen from verse
• 1:21:08
  thirty three to thirty seven, and then we're going to pray.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 4: Has God spoken to someone tonight? First Samuel seventeen thirty
• 1:21:19
  three will read to thirty seven, and then that does
• 1:21:25
  it for tonight. Now watch this against Saul and David.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 1: And Saul said to David, thou art not able to
• 1:21:37
  go against these Philistines, to fight with him, for thou
• 1:21:42
  at bty youth, and he a man of war from
• 1:21:46
  his youth.
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 4: You know what he's saying. He is saying.
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: This man has prepared for Batolo. He is not strange.
• 1:21:51
  You are a young man who is just starting. David
• 1:21:54
  is about to correct Sol next verse worrying thirty seven,
• 1:21:59
  And David said onto Saul, listen carefully, thy savant kept
• 1:22:03
  his father's sheep.
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 4: And there came a lion and a beer and took
• 1:22:08
  a lamp out of the flock thirty five.
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: And I went out after him, and I smote him
• 1:22:16
  and delivered it out of his mouth.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 4: And when he arose against me, I caught him by
• 1:22:22
  the bird.
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 1: And smote him and slew him two more verses, And
• 1:22:26
  thy savant slew both the lion and the bear. And
• 1:22:30
  this uncircumcised philistine shall be as one of them.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 4: Let me explain to you what this means.
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 1: When he was killing the lion, he did not know
• 1:22:41
  that that was just a trial, a preparation, because there
• 1:22:45
  is a real go liar you would kill. When he
• 1:22:47
  killed the lion, nobody clapped. When he killed the bear,
• 1:22:51
  nobody knew. But when he killed go lions, all Israel clapped.
• 1:22:56
  Your season of testing and preparation is where God will
• 1:23:00
  stretch you and test the.
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 4: Purity of your heart. You will be doing great.
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 1: God will give you assignments to do mighty things in
• 1:23:09
  the spirit, and yet they will not seem to be
• 1:23:11
  any reward system. God can give you an assignment to
• 1:23:15
  pray for a man of God you do not know
• 1:23:18
  for one month firsting for him, and yet you are
• 1:23:20
  not permitted to discuss it with anybody. So how do
• 1:23:23
  they know I am spiritual. God said, it is between
• 1:23:26
  me and you. That is a season of testing where
• 1:23:31
  you can go for a program and.
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 4: God will use you mightily healings and miracles.
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 1: And the next time you will hear in George that
• 1:23:39
  you are looking for an usher, and God will say
• 1:23:42
  you that is your position. And he said, God, I
• 1:23:45
  taught you about to start ministry. He says, you go
• 1:23:47
  and be that usher. Can I tell you every time
• 1:23:50
  your spiritual experience starts humilating you, you have entered a
• 1:23:54
  season of testing. The assignment of testing is to purify
• 1:23:59
  your motive. Please listen, this is a very prophetic teaching.
• 1:24:03
  Go and get this teaching and sit down with it
• 1:24:06
  as a retreat. Follow them.
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 4: Go through faith and patience have obtained the promise seasons.
• 1:24:16
  Let me tell you this.
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 1: There was a time in my life where I prayed
• 1:24:22
  and faster. I was going for a program. It started raining,
• 1:24:27
  and I made up my mind that people were hungry
• 1:24:31
  and ready to receive. It was not too far from
• 1:24:33
  where I was living, and I stood there in the rain.
• 1:24:36
  I would refuse that program or go. You know, it
• 1:24:39
  was all within my power. But I made up my
• 1:24:42
  mind that I was not just going to let things
• 1:24:44
  go like that. I remember going out in that rain
• 1:24:49
  with my Bible. As the rain was pouring on me.
• 1:24:52
  I was going I said, Lord, I love you with
• 1:24:54
  all my heart. I'm not doing this because I'm looking
• 1:24:56
  for a name. I sincerely want to see your people blessed.
• 1:25:00
  Nobody knew Joshua Sellman. Nobody was going to give me anything.
• 1:25:04
  Do you know when I got to the church there
• 1:25:06
  was no seat for me. They were already jumping, preparing
• 1:25:10
  to act drama. It was when they told them I
• 1:25:12
  had come that they quickly shifted me in and then
• 1:25:16
  they now shifted a few people in front and said
• 1:25:18
  I should sit here. And then after drama of over
• 1:25:21
  forty five minutes, they sang, they jumped, they enjoyed. Where
• 1:25:24
  it was time to come up. They just passed a
• 1:25:26
  little paper and say place I have fifteen minutes. I
• 1:25:29
  just managed it a round up. You can be angry
• 1:25:32
  and said, do you know how many days I firsted
• 1:25:34
  for this meeting? Seasons of testing. Beware of offense. When
• 1:25:39
  they annointing starts speaking. Sometimes God allows certain things to
• 1:25:44
  happen to pun you. You may think you are going
• 1:25:46
  to be the president of the Fellowship, suddenly they will
• 1:25:49
  say you are the cheap protocol. And he said, what
• 1:25:51
  kind of thing is this? I was already traveling and
• 1:25:56
  going to preach in youth meetings and preach in vigails.
• 1:26:00
  When they were looking for a music director that time
• 1:26:02
  in FCS, the people who are ever afraid, they said, no, no,
• 1:26:05
  how are we going to tell this guy to be
• 1:26:07
  music director. This is somebody who is teaching us. And
• 1:26:10
  I remember when they called and said they're looking for
• 1:26:12
  a music director. The Holy Spirit, Tony, you will be
• 1:26:15
  the music director. I told him myself with all joy,
• 1:26:18
  if it's to save my king, I will serve him.
• 1:26:20
  The guy who was going to be the music director
• 1:26:22
  for the band because the choir, the main choir, was
• 1:26:25
  different from the band, he refused to accept the position
• 1:26:28
  because I was the one teaching him. It's like a
• 1:26:31
  father and a son. Now because of the fellowship, now
• 1:26:35
  has a position. I told him myself served with honor.
• 1:26:38
  When we're outside of that circle, you can do all
• 1:26:40
  of this, but within this time you must save God.
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 4: And God sees my heart. I served with all my heart.
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: Are you learning now when you are too big to
• 1:26:56
  be tested and proven, then you are too small to be,
• 1:26:59
  to be a great vessel that God will use.
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 4: Many people have aborted.
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 1: Many people did well in the season of preparation, but
• 1:27:07
  when they got to the season.
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 4: Of testing, offense and pride and anger.
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 1: Decid is it that this man, I mean, this fellowship,
• 1:27:15
  this guy that is preaching, we are all seeing that
• 1:27:17
  is preaching nonsense?
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 4: And I'm here seated. What is the meaning of this?
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 1: And God, the sit down and make sure you come
• 1:27:23
  to George Ellie and you sit quietly there. Then when
• 1:27:27
  they want to use an example, they will now use
• 1:27:29
  you as an example. They will bring somebody else who
• 1:27:33
  just got born again one year and now come to
• 1:27:36
  a drama and maybe a comedian or somebody who is joking.
• 1:27:39
  It will now call you out and use you for
• 1:27:41
  an example that you'll be like my God. Let me
• 1:27:48
  tell you this when you read the Tunomy, chapter eighteen,
• 1:27:55
  from verse thirteen down Deuteronomy eight from thirteen to eighteen,
• 1:28:02
  the Lord began to admonish them, to tell them why
• 1:28:04
  they passed through everything they passed through. He said, to
• 1:28:07
  prove them so that in the end He will bless them.
• 1:28:11
  We're going to wrap up with this tomorrow. Would take
• 1:28:14
  the last season. Please do not miss the morning session
• 1:28:18
  because we may not have time for any prayers and
• 1:28:21
  importation tonight, but will use that opportunity tomorrow even though
• 1:28:26
  I will still speak over your life.
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 4: My time is off. Listen very carefully ask Pastor Daily.
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 1: Dr Dan, every other man of God who God is
• 1:28:38
  using here, whether here or in the congregation.
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 4: They will not their head to everything.
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 1: I've said, because there is a parallel of such seasons
• 1:28:47
  in their lives.
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 4: You can know, Ah, even if you do not call
• 1:28:53
  it by the names I've given, you will know that
• 1:28:56
  this is what God was achieving.
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 1: Can I tell you some of you, you are in
• 1:29:00
  this very season right now, the season of preparation.
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 4: Satan wants to distract you.
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 1: God is shotting you away from many distractions, and you
• 1:29:11
  are feeling antisocial and even feeling insulted. Can I tell
• 1:29:14
  you do not regret it. You never fail with God.
• 1:29:18
  You can fail alone, for you and God cannot feel together.
• 1:29:27
  I believe that the next Pastor Dailies, the next great
• 1:29:34
  men and women rein herd Bonkers.
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 4: Tl housbands are scattered within this place.
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 1: But claiming a man's startles in the spirit without submitting
• 1:29:45
  to the preserves that brought the person there is only
• 1:29:48
  flattering yourself. He said, if you were children of Abraham,
• 1:29:51
  you would do the works of Abraham. Allelujah. My call
• 1:29:57
  for you tonight, therefore, is to know that twenty five
• 1:30:01
  years is not just the passage of time.
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 4: Twenty five years.
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 1: Is a capture of history, to preserve for the generations
• 1:30:09
  to come, that when they say, what did you do
• 1:30:12
  with God that made him to convenance with himself, that
• 1:30:15
  you will last.
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 4: Let me tell you the truth.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 1: One of the blessings of working with God is longevity
• 1:30:21
  of whatever you represent. Go and read your Bible. Those
• 1:30:25
  who work with God, what they stand for never dies.
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 4: Even if you are able, though dead, you will yet
• 1:30:32
  be speaking.
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 1: One of the signature blessings that come upon a man
• 1:30:37
  who truly works with God is that God immortalizes the
• 1:30:41
  impact of that man, so that even when you are
• 1:30:44
  long gone today, and her bunker is long gone to
• 1:30:50
  their tear, Husborne is long gone to their believe, Graham
• 1:30:53
  is gone today. All these great men have gone, Miles Munroe,
• 1:30:58
  all of them gone, but they're still alive. A life
• 1:31:02
  in us, a life in books, and a life in time.
• 1:31:06
  We can choose any one of them. Whether you find us,
• 1:31:10
  find books, or look through time, you will still find
• 1:31:14
  your works with God as a roadmap for you to
• 1:31:17
  find a great destiny. We're going to spend two minutes.
• 1:31:20
  If I spend two minutes with us praying, will that
• 1:31:23
  be fine? In the next two minutes, Please don't be distracted,
• 1:31:27
  not moving up and down. Just find a corner and
• 1:31:30
  you are going to pray. Hold onto the haunts of
• 1:31:33
  the altar and cry to the God of Heaven Father,
• 1:31:37
  I will not have boughts destiny. I obtain grace to
• 1:31:41
  maximize this season of preparation.
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 8: Alas shata. Someone is praying, scratch up Branda Shanna, scabra
• 1:31:58
  soatos and shut up brandtradesh.
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 3: Man pray.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 8: Mat Brenda.
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 9: Goes to seek you Christ, to press, course, to press,
• 1:32:30
  goes to press.
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 1: This one thing I do forgetting the things that are
• 1:32:37
  behind and setting for the things that are before me.
• 1:32:42
  I press towards the mark of the high calling in Christ,
• 1:32:47
  looking up to Jesus, who is the author and the
• 1:32:51
  finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was
• 1:32:55
  set before him, And cure the cross and despise the shame.
• 1:33:02
  One more minute. Someone is a way I sat before
• 1:33:12
  your life and death. I sat before your blessing and greatness.
• 1:33:20
  I sat before you the next twenty five years of
• 1:33:23
  an impactful life, or the next twenty five years full of.
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 3: Regrets and pain and shame.
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 4: Allelujah.
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 3: One last prayer.
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 1: Point, Lord, take away destiny, Steelers, take away destruction.
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 3: Listen.
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 1: It's a scene then, that we are surrounded by so
• 1:34:03
  great a crowd of witnesses. Let us lay aside every
• 1:34:08
  weight and the scene that dot easily beset us, and
• 1:34:12
  to run with passive answer race that is set before us.
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 4: Lord, cutaway destructions from my life.
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 3: Someone go ahead and pray.
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 1: Excessive use of social media that is not for the
• 1:34:25
  profiting of your spirit. That may be your issue for
• 1:34:28
  some of you, relationships and friends that are not adding
• 1:34:34
  up to your spiritual progress.

  Speaker 3: For some of you.
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 1: On godly media content and consumptions that eat the health
• 1:34:47
  of your spirit. Man for some of you, prayerlessness. For
• 1:34:53
  some of you, roadlessness, no prayer, no fasting. For some

  of you, cry and say glory. I am a pastor,
• 1:35:06
  I am an apostle, I am a process, I am
