7:59
Hallelujah. In the name of Jesus Christ.
8:04
In the name of Jesus Christ, on behalf of Jesus himself, the Son
8:09
of the living God, I welcome everyone to Sound of Revival UK
8:14
2025. Hallelujah, praise the name of
8:19
the Lord. You are in for a destiny
8:21
defining encounter by the Spirit of the living God.
8:25
In the name of Jesus, what do we say to our precious pastor
8:29
Nathaniel Basil? Let's give him a big God bless.
8:32
You. Hallelujah, in the name of
8:35
Jesus, let me request that you walk to two or three people and
8:40
tell them get ready, you are about to be changed. 2-3 people.
8:44
Speak like you're a prophet. Speak like you're a man of God,
8:48
Speak like you are prophesying. Get ready.
8:51
You are about to be changed, about to be transformed.
8:58
Is someone responding? Back to you.
9:01
Those online, find someone near you, find someone around you.
9:07
Now let's give Jesus a big, big, big, big shout of praise.
9:16
A bigger shout of praise, Tehila Hosanna.
9:21
The shout of the victorious ones.
9:25
The shout of the victorious ones.
9:28
The shout of the victorious ones.
9:36
In Jesus mighty name we pray please, you may be gloriously
9:42
seated, gloriously seated in the name of Jesus alike for you
9:47
tonight as we get to the ministry of the world to be
9:51
open, to be sensitive. Gods method, you hear me say,
9:55
has always been His word. When He wants to impart upon a
9:59
people, He comes by His word. He appears unto us by his word.
10:04
Hallelujah. Again, on behalf of Jesus, I
10:07
welcome everyone. Let's celebrate our global
10:10
family connected online from UK to America to China to Africa.
10:17
Come on UK, are you celebrating? Those who are.
10:19
Connected online. The Lord will do you good in
10:24
Jesus name. Please, if you are here and
10:28
you're a minister of the Gospel, allow me a minute or two to
10:31
honor you. I know that when we started,
10:33
somewhere in the course of the service you were recognized.
10:37
But please, everyone here who is a minister of the Gospel, let me
10:41
request that you please stand for recognition.
10:45
Glasgow, Let's give them big round of applause.
10:48
Thank you. Pastors, prophets, bishops,
10:51
evangelists, are you celebrating those who served in the ministry
10:56
of the world? May the Lord bless you.
10:59
We honor your presence. Thank you very much for taking
11:02
the time to be with us. Please be seated in Jesus name,
11:05
Hallelujah, Amen and Amen. Please allow me on all at least
11:11
two or three people, great friends, men of God who have
11:15
come. Thank you so much Apostle Paul.
11:17
I may the Lord bless you. In Jesus name I want to honor
11:21
Doctor Delhi Oshumakinde. God bless you Sir.
11:23
Great, great lovely man of God. Reverend Akhila Yusuf, God bless
11:27

11:30
Pastor Abela Luco, God bless you in the name of Jesus Christ.
11:34
Hallelujah. Dear friend and brother.
11:36
Pastor Jakes and is their wife. God bless you.
11:38
Let's give them a big God bless you.
11:40
Hallelujah. Are you ready for the Word?
11:45
Blessed be the name of the Lord. I sense that this conference is
11:49
going to be 1 filled with extraordinary encounters, not
11:53
just the delivery of the Word, but that whilst the word is
11:58
coming it will be like it were in Acts chapter 10.
12:01
The Bible says and while Peters pick these things, the Spirit of
12:06
God fell upon all day that heard him.
12:09
Are you ready to receive Hallelujah now?
12:13
Very straight to the business of the night.
12:17
I took some time to study. Whenever we're holding any sound
12:22
of revival across a region, I'd like to take time to study the
12:26
history of the move of God across that territory, if any,
12:30
so that I can connect to the things that God had done before.
12:35
And then it would give me perspective as I deliver the
12:37
Word. And I was pleasantly surprised
12:40
at the many moves of God, the reawakenings that have happened
12:45
across this territory. In fact, it's purported that
12:49
Scotland single handedly hosts one of the most frequent and the
12:54
richest moves of God in recorded history.
12:58
I'm not here to bore you with all the details.
13:00
When we talk about the move of God, especially in Scotland,
13:05
most people just think of John Knox, the great reformer.
13:10
But he was not the only person who got used.
13:13
In fact, he said the Reformation history would teach us.
13:17
It was him who led the Protestant movement and created
13:22
a system of presbytery in the church as against the leadership
13:25
of one person. But in addition to John Knox,
13:28
there were many other people who led various moves of God, men
13:35
and women alike. And as I studied, I read a few
13:39
books online just to give me perspective.
13:41
And again, I'll save you all that detail.
13:44
But it's incredible how that for every time the move of God
13:47
happened in Scotland, it translated to many, many things
13:52
#1 technological advancement, education, the well-being of the
13:57
people. And it was said at a point that
14:01
many pubs and beer houses were closing because no one would
14:06
come to patronize them. It was fire falling everywhere,
14:10
prayer, fire, greater consecration.
14:13
But eventually, and for some reason, as you'll be learning
14:15
tonight, there was a decline in the spirituality of a place, for
14:22
instance, like Glasgow, Scotland, last I checked, and
14:28
this was as recent as yesterday. Did you know that statistics
14:34
shows that about 50% of the people in Scotland do not attest
14:40
to belonging to any religion? At least 50, I think 54% or
14:46
they're about to be exact. That means in filling any form
14:50
where there is a provision for religion or faith, they would
14:54
admit vocally that they did not believe in Jesus.
14:58
This was a place that was a hub for the.
15:00
Move. Of God, Hallelujah.
15:03
It's been said that many of the cathedrals around this region
15:07
are largely empty and most believers are not interested
15:11
whatsoever, or those who had a Christian origin are not
15:16
interested whatsoever in anything church, anything God,
15:20
anything Christian activity. But in the name of Jesus, we
15:24
came by the Spirit of God to change that narrative.
15:28
We came to fan to flames again the revival fire in the name of
15:33
Jesus. If you believe that, shout Amen.
15:36
And so for this conference, I'll be staring our hearts through a
15:39
series of teachings while men. Slept.
15:44
We'll be looking at Part 1. The goal is to show you Satan
15:50
strategy for tonight, how he sponsors a decline in
15:54
spirituality. We're going to be studying a few
15:56
things for the time that we have.
15:58
And please let me encourage you, particularly if you're a
16:01
minister of the gospel, you would want to listen to the
16:03
things that I have to share. I have been a student of
16:06
revival. By the grace of God and by his
16:08
mercies, I want to unveil to you the strategy by which Satan uses
16:13
to sponsor a decline in spiritual vibrancy across a
16:18
life, across a family, across a region, across a territory.
16:24
So we're considering while men slept.
16:27
We'll look at Part 1 tonight. And for a sub topic, we're
16:30
looking at the mystery of spiritual decline.
16:33
If you already shout Amen, 2 scriptures very quickly.
16:37
Matthew chapter 13. Matthew chapter 13.
16:41
We'll look at verse 24 down to 30, Matthew 13.
16:46
Another parable put ye forth unto them, saying.
16:49
The. Kingdom of Heaven is likened
16:50
onto a man which sought good. Seeds in his field. 25 But while
16:55
men slept, take note, his enemy came and sought tires among the
17:00
weeds, and went his way. 26 But when the blade was sprung up and
17:05
brought forth fruit, then appeared the tires also.
17:10
So the servants of the household that came and said unto him,
17:13
Sir, didst not thou sow good seeds in thy field?
17:17
And from whence Hadid tares? And he said unto them, An enemy
17:22
had done this. Take note of two expressions #1
17:25
While. Men slept. #2 An enemy had done
17:29
this. The servant said unto him, Will
17:32
doubt then, that we go up and gather them up to more verses.
17:36
But he said Nay, lest while ye gather up the.
17:39
Tares. Ye root up also the wheat with
17:42
them. Let both grow.
17:44
Together, he says, until the harvest, and in the time of
17:48
harvest I will say to the reapers, gather ye first the
17:52
tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them.
17:55
But gather the wheat onto my barn.
17:58
The Lord bless the reading of His word in Jesus name.
18:01
The second Scripture, Second Corinthians chapter 2 and verse
18:05
11, 2nd Corinthians 2 verse 11. I request that we read together
18:12
in concert. Are you ready?
18:14
12GO lest Satan should get an advantage of us, for we are not
18:21
ignorant of his devices and so history.
18:26
Like I said earlier on, captures strong seasons of the move of
18:31
God, especially in territories like Scotland.
18:34
And it also sadly captures a sharp shocking decline, decline
18:40
in spirituality, decline in godliness, in, you know,
18:43
fervency and so on and so forth. And the Bible lets us know that
18:48
one of the elements according to Jesus teaching that was
18:52
responsible for this, this decline was that men slept, it
18:58
says while men slept. Let me talk for a minute about
19:02
that. Sleep in the Bible has both a
19:07
positive and a negative connotation when you study.
19:10
Scripture. You will find instances of
19:12
sleep, and for some of them they are positive in their
19:16
connotations, and then for others they are negative in
19:19
their connotations. I want to take three of them.
19:22
Three connotations that sleep represent according to
19:26
scripture. Are we learning already #1 Sleep
19:30
according to Scripture connotes rest and refreshing from
19:34
exhaustion. If you're writing, please write
19:36
that down. The first connotation of sleep
19:40
according to Scripture. Is.
19:43
As a means of obtaining rest and refreshing from exhaustion, when
19:49
we are exhausted, when we're spent, when we're furnished,
19:52
usually the medical recommendation and the natural
19:56
recommendation is that we sleep. You find that in Proverbs
20:00
chapter 3 and verse 24. Proverbs 3 and verse 24 The
20:06
Bible says when thou liest down. Thou shall not be afraid, yeah,
20:11
thou shall lie down and thy sleep shall be sweet.
20:15
Someone having sleep problems shout Amen, Amen.
20:19
Meaning you are receiving your healing in the name of Jesus
20:22
Christ. Scripture #2 Proverbs Psalms
20:26
chapter 4 and verse 8. I'm showing you the connotation
20:31
or sleep as a means Forrest and refreshing.
20:34
It says, I will both lay me down in peace and sleep, for thou
20:38
Lord only maketh me dwell in safety.
20:42
Can I give you 2 more scriptures?
20:44
Psalm 127 and verse 2. Psalm 127 and verse 2.
20:50
Here's what it says. It is vain for you to rise up
20:54
early, and to sit up late to eat the bread of sorrow.
20:59
For so he giveth his beloved sleep.
21:01
Who gives sleep? God himself and the Bible says
21:05
every good and every perfect gift comes from above.
21:08
One final scripture. We find that, in fact, as a
21:11
story. In Mark chapter 4, and we read
21:15
from verse 35 down to 41 four scriptures to show you sleep as
21:20
a representation of a strategy Forrest and refreshing the Bible
21:25
says on the same day. When the even was come, he said
21:31
unto them, Let us pass over on to the other side.
21:35
And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as
21:40
he was in the ship. And the Bible says there were
21:43
other ships with him, you know, little ships around.
21:46
And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into
21:51
the ship, so that it was now full.
21:54
Interesting story. The Bible says, And he, the
21:57
heathen Jesus, was in the hinder part of the sheep asleep.
22:02
Who was sleeping Jesus. Even Jesus slept on a pillow.
22:08
And the Bible says, They are awake him.
22:10
And say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
22:14
39 He arose from sleep, he rebuked the wind, he said unto
22:19
the sea, Peace be still. And the wind ceased, and there
22:23
was great calm. Two more verses.
22:25
And then he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful?
22:28
How is it that he have no faith? Final verse.
22:31
And they feared exceedingly, and said to one another, What manner
22:35
of man is this, that even the winds and the waves obey him?
22:40
So the first connotation of sleep according to Scripture is
22:44
as a strategy for rest and refuse, refreshing from
22:47
exhaustion if we're still together, say Amen #2 the second
22:53
connotation for sleep according to scripture is death, cessation
22:57
of living in as much as we know within the frame of this life
23:01
when people die in the Bible, especially in.
23:04
Christ, we say, they are asleep. You find that, for instance, in
23:10
Deuteronomy chapter 31 and verse 16, Deuteronomy chapter 31 and
23:15
verse 16, the Lord said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep
23:20
with thy fathers, And these people will rise up and go
23:24
whoring after other gods of the strangers of the land.
23:27
With that they go to be among them, and will forsake me and
23:31
break my covenant. He meant after you are dead,
23:35
after you are gone. And God uses the expression
23:38
sleep. Next Scripture, Psalms 13 and
23:42
verse 3. I'm establishing for you the
23:44
various connotations that sleep according to Scripture
23:48
represent. It says consider and hear me.
23:51
The psalmist says, O Lord my God, he says, lighten my eyes
23:55
lest I sleep. The sleep of death, the sleep of
24:02
death. Two more Scriptures, John
24:05
Chapter 11. We're reading from verse 11 to
24:08
14. This is Jesus speaking
24:11
concerning Lazarus. The Bible says this thing said
24:14
He, and after that he said unto him, our friend Lazarus
24:18
sleepeth. So he's speaking to the people
24:21
about Lazarus condition and he. Uses the word.
24:24
Sleep, but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.
24:28
Verse 12 The disciples said, Lord, if he sleep then he shall
24:33
do well. They were thinking of the first
24:35
connotation as rest and refreshing.
24:38
How be the Bible says Jesus spake of his death, but they
24:43
thought that he had spoken of taking rest in sleep.
24:47
So there is rest through sleep or in sleep and there is the
24:51
sleep of death. And then Jesus spoke unto them
24:55
plainly. Lazarus is dead.
24:59
If you're learning, let me hear loud believing.
25:01
Amen. I give you a final scripture
25:04
First Thessalonians chapter. 4 will read 13 and. 14 You are
25:09
looking at sleep as it refers to death, but I would not have you
25:13
to be ignorant. Paul is speaking to the church
25:16
in Thessalonica concerning them which are asleep.
25:20
He says that his sorrow not even as others which have no hope. 14
25:26
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again in that
25:30
similitude, Even so them which sleep in Jesus, the Bible says
25:37
God will also bring with him. So the first connotation of
25:41
sleep is Forrest and refreshing, second is death #3 and that is
25:48
our concern for tonight. Sleep also, according to
25:51
Scripture has been used to refer to a state of spiritual decline.
25:58
A state of spiritual decline. We find that for instance, in
26:03
Matthew chapter 13 and verse 25, the Bible says we read that
26:07
earlier. Let's read again.
26:08
But while men slept, the only authorization for the enemy to
26:13
have access the farm and to sow tares among wheat was that the
26:17
men were asleep. One final scripture, Ephesians
26:21
chapter 5 and verse 14, Paul speaking to the church in
26:25
Ephesus. He says, wherefore he said, I
26:28
wake thou that sleep as he said, and arise from the dead, and
26:34
Christ shall give delight. Let me read it one more time.
26:38
Awake. He says, thou that sleepers
26:40
arise from the dead, and Christ shall give you light.
26:45
For the purpose of this discussion, we're going to be
26:47
looking at the third connotation.
26:49
We're not looking at sleep as a means for rest and refreshing.
26:53
We're not looking as sleep as per death.
26:55
We're looking at sleep as representing a state of
26:59
spiritual decline. Now, very quickly, I want to,
27:04
for tonight on Mask for You, Satan's agenda, his plot against
27:10
the church, and how he intentionally programs spiritual
27:15
decline across a life, across a family, across a territory, and
27:21
any other region for that matter.
27:23
Are we together for a foundation?
27:26
Write this down. God has an agenda for
27:30
individuals. God has an agenda for families.
27:36
God has an agenda for territories.
27:39
He has an agenda for nations. God Almighty has an agenda.
27:45
He has a prophetic program. We call it an agenda for
27:50
individuals, including you and I.
27:52
God has a prophetic program for families.
27:56
God has a prophetic program for territories including Glasgow,
28:01
Scotland and he has an agenda for nations. 3 scriptures to
28:07
explain that Jeremiah 2911 he says I know the thoughts that I
28:12
think towards you. They are thoughts of peace and
28:16
not of evil. To bring you an expected end.
28:20
First Timothy chapter 2 and verse 4 reveals God's agenda for
28:25
the nations. The Bible says he desires that
28:28
all men shout, all men come on Glasgow like you believe, say
28:32
all men. He desires that all men be saved
28:37
and they come onto the knowledge of the truth.
28:40
So this represents his agenda for the nations in Acts chapter
28:44
1 and verse 8. Acts chapter 1 and verse 8 the
28:48
Bible says you shall receive power standard.
28:51
The Holy Ghost is come upon you and you shall be witnesses and
28:55
he begins to name territories Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and
29:01
even to the uttermost part of the earth.
29:03
So God has an agenda. He has a prophetic program for
29:08
the nations. He has a program for Glasgow,
29:11
Scotland. He has a program for UK.
29:14
He has a program for Europe. He has a program for any other
29:17
nation connected. You believe that shall Amen.
29:21
Hallelujah. And in summary, you see God's
29:24
program is always around enthroning Christ in the hearts
29:29
of men and throning His value system in the minds of men.
29:34
Are we together and bringing territories under the government
29:38
of the Christ. If you are to summarize God's
29:41
program, it's not just about planting churches, starting
29:44
ministry, holding revival programs, all of these and those
29:48
are only a means to an end. God's program ultimately is to
29:54
have Christ and his purposes and thrown first in the hearts of
29:58
individuals and then across every strata of human
30:03
activities. If you're following so far,
30:05
shout. Amen.
30:08
Satan also has an agenda for individuals, for families.
30:14
Now let me have your attention. So it's not only God who has an
30:18
agenda for individuals and families.
30:20
Satan also has a prophetic program for individuals,
30:25
including you and I. He has a prophetic program for
30:29
families. He has a prophetic program for
30:32
regions, for territories. First Peter chapter 5 and verse
30:36
8, the Bible tells us to be sober.
30:41
Then it says to be vigilant. The word vigilant means to be
30:44
alert, to be discerning. It says because your adversary
30:50
doesn't call him your friend doesn't call him your business
30:53
partner calls him an adversary. The devil, as a roaring lion
30:59
walketh about, seeking whom he may.
31:02
Devour. 2nd Corinthians chapter 4 and verse 4 establishing the
31:07
fact that Satan also has an agenda.
31:10
The Bible calls him the God of this world and that his agenda
31:15
and his program among others, is to blind the minds of
31:19
unbelievers lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ,
31:24
who is the image of God, should shine upon them.
31:27
Who is following. So far Satan has an agenda.
31:30
Now, believe it or not, whether you admit, whether you accept,
31:34
Satan has a prophetic program with your name on it, with my
31:37
name on it, with Glasgow there, with Scotland there, with UK,
31:41
Europe. He has an agenda.
31:45
And if allowed, he will execute that agenda on hindered.
31:49
But I'm happy to announce to Satan that there is an emergence
31:53
of people beginning from tonight.
31:55
Who will stop? Perpetually the advancement of
31:58
his program. If you're part of that army, let
32:01
him hear by a loud shout of Amen.
32:05
Now listen carefully. Every attack of Satan on the
32:09
Saints, I wrote here is a progressive attempt to actualize
32:15
that agenda of stealing, killing, and destruction.
32:19
Every attack on the Saints, everyone, whether a man of God,
32:24
whether a businessman, whether he comes through sickness,
32:28
whether he comes through delay, whether he comes through
32:31
activating yokes and curses, in whatever manner he chooses to
32:35
come. I want you to know that he's
32:38
attacked especially upon the Saints, is a progressive attempt
32:43
to actualize this agenda of stealing, killing, and
32:48
destruction. Let me summarize for you Satan's
32:52
agenda. It's important you have this as
32:54
a rule of thumb so that you know that every time you see Satan
32:59
around a family, around a vicinity, this is the reason for
33:03
which he has come. Number one, Satan's first agenda
33:09
for all men, but particularly believers.
33:11
Are you ready #1 to stop men from knowing Jesus and accessing
33:18
the life that comes through the gospel?
33:20
I'll take that slowly because I need you to hear and write
33:24
Satan's first agenda. Doesn't matter if he's in
33:28
Glasgow, whether he's in Kuwait, Qatar, Nigeria, Ghana, anywhere
33:33
at all. When you find Satan or as
33:35
represented by any demonic force, the first port of call is
33:41
to stop men from knowing Jesus. You can imagine how Satan fought
33:47
and fought and fought to stop you from coming here.
33:50
You can imagine how Satan is fighting progressively to stop
33:54
your loved ones from knowing Jesus.
33:56
But tonight, in the name of Jesus, we call him a liar.
34:00
We call him a liar. So he his first assignment is to
34:06
stop men from knowing Jesus and accessing the life that comes
34:11
through the gospel. Paul says I'm not ashamed of the
34:14
gospel of Christ. He calls it the power of God
34:18
unto salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jews, to the
34:22
Gentiles, it doesn't matter. The gospel sustains within
34:25
itself, if preached properly and if received by faith, the power
34:30
to liberate men, to sponsor a translation, the Bible teaches
34:34
from the Kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom.
34:37
Of God's dear son #2. Satan's agenda I wrote here to
34:43
cause men to perpetually rebel against the government of Jesus
34:50
and the culture that comes with that government.
34:53
You may want to listen and then I'll slowly guide you to write.
34:56
His second assignment is to cause men to perpetually rebel
35:03
against the government of Jesus and then to rebel against the
35:10
culture. And when I talk of culture, I
35:13
don't just mean the rituals. I'm talking about the mindset,
35:17
the modus operandi, the way of behavior that comes with that
35:21
Kingdom. Now you write his second
35:24
assignment is to cause men to perpetually rebel against the
35:30
government of Jesus and the culture that comes with that
35:36
government. He uses the tool of hate.
35:39
He uses the tool of wickedness. He uses the tool of witchcraft.
35:44
Are we together? All of these tools are Satan's
35:47
arsenals. He helps to program people into
35:51
hating the God of the Bible and everything that is pro Christ.
35:56
Everything pro Christian everything pro Kingdom
36:00
assignment number. Three Satan's third assignment.
36:05
Is to program every civilization to hate God and fight those who
36:12
love him. Satan has a unique assignment
36:17
that he's given himself as an expression of his hatred for
36:21
God. He has this mandate to program
36:26
every civilization to hate God. Now think about that for a
36:31
moment and take note of my choice of words to program every
36:37
civilization to hate God and then to fight those who love.
36:42
Him to hate. God.
36:50
Little wonder we have a generation with an increasing
36:54
hatred for God, increasing hatred for church, increasing
36:59
hatred for Christian programs, men of God.
37:02
There are people who cannot explain the basis and the
37:06
motivation for their hatred. They hate men of God.
37:10
They hate church. Was their passing and they just
37:13
see a church, a cathedral in any form or fashion.
37:16
There's that anger, that annoyance.
37:18
They don't even know where it came from.
37:20
I'm telling you, it's a programming.
37:23
It's a programming to hate God, a programming to hate everything
37:28
spirituality. Let me add one final assignment
37:34
I'm unveiling for you on masking for you Satan's assignment that
37:38
he has an agenda. Satan is not just about looking
37:42
for people carelessly. He's governed by a vision he's
37:45
casted before himself. And number one, I said for a
37:48
recap that his first assignment is to stop men from knowing
37:56
Jesus and accessing the life that comes through the gospel #2
38:00
to cause men to perpetually rebel against the government of
38:04
Jesus and the culture that comes with that government #3.
38:09
He programs every civilization to hate God and then to fight
38:14
all those who love him #4. His fourth assignment is to stop
38:20
many from manifesting a life of honor, glory, and dominion, to
38:27
stop men, especially the Saints. Now that he could not stop you
38:31
from being saved, his next assignment is to stop you even
38:35
though you are saved, even though you are born again.
38:38
He. Stops you from manifesting a
38:41
life of honor, a life of glory, and a life of dominion.
38:49
So everywhere you see Satan, this is what he's about fighting
38:53
your dominion, fighting your loving Jesus, fighting church,
38:58
fighting priesthood, fighting everything that is pro Christ.
39:05
Are we learning while men slept? And let me share with you the
39:10
sequence, the sequence as far as how he carries these things
39:17
about now you will learn from what I'm about to show you how a
39:22
nation, a territory, a family, an individual can be on fire
39:27
today and then experience such spiritual decline.
39:31
Did you know there are people today, some of the biggest
39:35
enemies of the church were once part of revivals.
39:38
Have you heard people say that? I was part of so, so, so and so
39:41
revival, but now they hate the church.
39:44
They fight everything that is gone.
39:48
When Satan wants to destroy a territory, please listen.
39:52
If you're a minister of the Gospel here, I want to give you,
39:55
by the lens of Scripture and by the privilege of the ministry of
39:59
the Holy Spirit, how Satan degenerates.
40:03
An individual degenerates a territory.
40:06
When you understand this and you can stand against it, then
40:09
revival can be preserved within a territory.
40:13
I want to show you 3 or 4 steps. When Satan wants to destroy any
40:19
territory spiritually, this is what he does.
40:22
Please pay attention number one. His first attack is on
40:27
priesthood, when Satan wants to destroy Glasgow, wants to
40:32
destroy Scotland, wants to destroy UK, wants to destroy
40:36
Europe, Nigeria, Africa, any nation whatsoever.
40:40
Listen, he does not go to the banks, he does not go to the
40:44
schools. He will visit them eventually.
40:47
His first port of call is the priesthood within that
40:51
territory, meaning the spiritual voices across that territory.
40:56
Zechariah chapter 13 and verse 7, his first port of call when
41:02
he desires to attack God's program and attack the purposes
41:07
of God within and across a territory, he fights priesthood.
41:12
He finds the spiritual voices within that territory.
41:16
That's his first port of call read with me ready 1 to go, He
41:20
says Awake, O sword against my shepherd, and against the man
41:25
that is my fellow, saith the Lord of Hosts.
41:28
He says Smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.
41:33
Smite the shepherd. That means if Satan intends to
41:39
attack everyone seated here, he will start by attacking the man
41:43
who feeds them spiritually. Are we together?
41:46
He attacks the people responsible for shaping their
41:50
spiritual convictions. Satan will never attack a
41:53
territory widespread if he has not attacked the priesthood.
41:57
If Satan progresses with his attacks, he means priesthood has
42:01
fallen. Are we together?
42:06
How does he attack the spiritual voices?
42:08
There are only two areas in the life of a man of God.
42:12
Satan attacks. He does not attack everywhere.
42:15
It will look like he's attacking every aspect of that man's life.
42:19
But there are only two areas Satan is interested in to
42:22
destroy. Priesthood 1.
42:24
He attracts consecration #2 he attacks your message.
42:28
Two things. If Satan attacks your
42:32
consecration and attacks your message, he's destroyed your
42:36
priesthood. When Satan attacks spiritual
42:42
voices, men and women of God, the first area in their lives he
42:47
attacks is their consecration, your devotion.
42:50
He attacks the very spiritual protocol that preserves the
42:55
glory upon your life. According to Levitical chapter,
43:00
Exodus chapter, Leviticus Chapter 9 and verse 6.
43:05
It says this is the thing that the Lord commanded that you
43:09
should do, and then the glory of the Lord shall appear unto you.
43:14
Let me teach you something, believers, please listen and
43:17
those online. I plead that you follow with me
43:19
carefully. The spirit life has a culture
43:24
that preserves the glory upon an individual.
43:26
Are we together? When you come into Christ, there
43:29
is a way. The Bible mandates and demands
43:32
that you behave if you desire to see the glory of God resident
43:37
and preserved upon your life. So when you come into Christ,
43:41
you obtain that grace. It's not of works, but once you
43:45
are saved, the Holy Ghost supplies another dimension of
43:48
grace called the Enabling Grace. It empowers you, but you take
43:54
advantage of that grace and you begin to live out the culture of
43:58
the spirit life. Are we together now?
44:01
It is upon your living that culture of the Spirit life.
44:05
That you begin to access. Strength.
44:08
Access power. That's why you can have two
44:10
believers save born again, but there are possibilities in the
44:14
spirit will differ. You know why?
44:16
Because one has taken advantage of that enabling grace and he's
44:20
working in keeping with the culture of the Spirit life.
44:24
The Bible calls it the law of the Spirit of life in Christ
44:28
Jesus. There is life in Christ Jesus,
44:31
but there is a law that governs it.
44:33
The word law there does not mean Old New Testament is simply an
44:37
old word for operation. The operation of the Spirit of
44:42
life. That means sin and death does
44:44
not just work. There is an operation and when
44:47
you partner with that operation, you will manifest that nature.
44:51
Are we together? The Spirit life also has an
44:54
operation. There is a way you have to
44:56
engage with the Spirit and engage with the Word to manifest
45:00
the Spirit life. If you're following me, say
45:02
Amen, praise the name of the Lord.
45:08
So when we talk about consecration, we're looking at
45:11
two things #1 abstinence #2 devotion.
45:16
Now most people, when they teach on consecration, they only dwell
45:21
across the area of abstinence, abstinence from everything that
45:25
is not of God, everything that can corrupt.
45:28
You know the purity of your oil and your anointing.
45:31
And that is true. But that's only one side.
45:34
A man who avoids evil but is not totally devoted to God is still
45:39
not consecrated. Consecration goes beyond
45:42
abstinence. When abstinence is sorted, the
45:46
next thing becomes devotion. He says, I love you more than my
45:50
necessary food. How behold or how I love your
45:54
Lord say, they are my meditation always, day and night.
46:00
Many people may not necessarily be having the same problem, but
46:04
they are not wholly devoted unto God.
46:06
So when we teach abstinence, but when we teach consecration, it
46:11
captures 2 dimensions #1 abstinence from evil.
46:15
The Bible says, nevertheless, the foundation of the Lord,
46:17
standard shore, having this seal, that the Lord knoweth them
46:21
that are his, and let every man that named the name of Christ
46:24
depart from iniquity, are we together?
46:27
But then there is the second dimension, total devotion.
46:31
Total devotion. When Satan wants to affect or
46:37
attack the spiritual voices, he attacks your consecration.
46:43
The spiritual conditions that protect and preserve the glory
46:46
of God upon your life #2 Satan attacks your message.
46:52
In fact, let me back down a bit and tell you the various ways by
46:56
which he attacks your consecration.
46:58
There are a number of strategies he uses to attack your
47:02
consecration. I'll give you a few of them.
47:04
Number one, pride. Pride is one way Satan attacks a
47:08
man's consecration #2 complacency, pride, complacency
47:17
#3 carelessness. In fact, Satan can even use
47:22
frustration, he said. What shall separate us from the
47:25
love of Christ? There are times you can be so
47:28
frustrated because things are not going well with your life
47:32
and it can degenerate you. You can get into a state of
47:35
decline. Hallelujah.
47:44
Many believers have gone down as far as preserving the
47:50
consecration within their lives that protect the grace of God.
47:53
Now let me teach you something about the anointing.
47:56
Every dimension of grace and empowerment you access it is
48:00
preserved by a certain degree of consecration.
48:05
You don't need to pray and say, Father, keep the oil on my head.
48:10
All you need to do is to work in keeping with the consecration
48:14
that is connected to that grace. Every dimension of grace and oil
48:18
has an allotted level of consecration that preserves it.
48:23
When Satan wants to fight the anointing, he does not fight the
48:26
anointing by fighting it. He fights the consecration that
48:30
preserves. If you are something, he will
48:32
fight your hair because the glory and the strength is
48:36
connected to your hair. Are we learning now?
48:38
Praise the name of the Lord. Satan fights priesthood by
48:46
fighting their consecration. And then when he's done fighting
48:50
your consecration, he fights your message.
48:53
Please listen to this. Please listen to this,
48:56
particularly if you're a minister of the gospel.
48:59
You know how he finds your message by adulterating the
49:02
purity of its content or by ensuring the message is not
49:07
wholesome and balanced. Satan finds the message of a man
49:12
of God #1 by adulterating the. Purity of his.
49:17
Content. The word adulterate means to
49:21
make of a lesser quality by introducing an inferior
49:26
substance. When you adulterate a thing, you
49:31
the goal is to reduce its quality by introducing something
49:35
foreign. Are we together?
49:37
So when Satan wants to fight a man of God, when Satan wants to
49:41
fight a potent message, what he does is number 1.
49:45
He will cause you to adulterate the purity of that message or #2
49:51
if he fails to achieve that, he will cause you to be so lopsided
49:55
with your message. It is not wholesome and it is
49:59
not balanced. Acts chapter 20 and verse 27.
50:03
Please give it to us, Acts 2027. He said, For I have not shown to
50:10
declare unto you all the counsel of God, all the counsel of God.
50:18
Verse 28, He says, Take heed, therefore, to unto yourselves
50:22
and to all the flock by which the Holy Ghost had made you
50:25
overseer to feed the Church of God with wholesome message,
50:30
wholesome light, which He had purchased with His own blood.
50:36
I can submit to you that there are many men of God and many
50:40
ministries under attack, and they are unaware two kinds of
50:44
attacks with respect to your message #1 the purity of your
50:48
message. And so there's a lot of
50:50
adulterated, corrupt teachings that come from the pulpit.
50:54
Are we together? And I'm going to be showing you
50:56
shortly the effect of such corruption.
50:59
But #2 another layer of it is that you are not necessarily
51:04
corrupt. Your message is pure, but it's
51:06
not wholesome. So you present a lopsided God.
51:11
And when people embrace A lopsided God, they are
51:14
programmed to respond to that limited God.
51:18
Are we together now? Satan attacks priesthood.
51:27
Who is learning so far? If you're a man of God, I'm
51:30
showing you what Satan is interested in doing in your life
51:32
right now, attacking your consecration and attacking your
51:38
message, the purity of it and the balance of it.
51:44
I'm passionate as a man of God to sing that I communicate the
51:48
whole council of God. I have seen first hand what
51:52
happens to a believer when they are not trained holistically.
51:56
The area of limitation in your life is where Satan will fashion
52:00
his arsenal against you. I give you an instance.
52:04
If you teach a believer to love Jesus and not be visionary, he
52:09
will love Jesus, but his lack of vision will be where Satan will
52:13
attack him. Are we together?
52:14
If you teach a believer to be very valuable, very gifted, very
52:18
skilled, and you don't teach him to be passionate about his
52:22
prayer life, that person will be a very successful businessman at
52:26
the expense of his spiritual growth.
52:30
The assignment of priesthood is not just to teach, it is to
52:33
ensure that it becomes a well-rounded communication of
52:37
light so that you build believers holistically.
52:41
When you study food and nutrition, we teach about 6
52:44
classes of food. Are we together?
52:46
And it's taught that including water.
52:48
Do you know you can eat as healthy as you want and don't
52:52
take water, it will still affect you.
52:53
Am I right on that? You can take water no matter how
52:56
pure and purified and then don't engage the other classes of
53:00
food. It will affect your growth and
53:02
affect your development. If you're following so far, say
53:05
Amen. So let me give you the second
53:08
sequence. I've spoken about his attack on
53:12
priesthood, meaning if Satan wants to attack Glasgow, in
53:16
fact, that's the way he declined this region with all due respect
53:20
to the states that it is currently, he started by
53:24
attacking priesthood. Now I've studied God's generals
53:27
and I've studied a number of revival moves of God and great
53:31
men and women who carried this revival fire.
53:33
Usually the revival died during or shortly after they passed.
53:38
You know why? Because Satan left the issue of
53:41
the revival and started affecting the revival.
53:44
He he so tortured them either using their.
53:47
Health. You know health.
53:48
Issues or family issues or issues of consecration or their
53:53
message or persecution. He did something that
53:56
degenerated the individual and the move eventually died.
54:01
It is the reason why when you see God using a man, using a
54:05
people, if you are blessed through their lives, begin to
54:08
pray for them. Now you know where Satan will
54:11
come. He will come to attack you by
54:14
attacking the person who blesses you.
54:16
He attacks you by attacking the person who lifts you.
54:19
So when you see a man watch this, ladies and gentlemen,
54:24
every time you see you, you see that Satan wanted to destroy the
54:27
nation of Israel, but he was looking for the Savior, the
54:31
deliverer. He first wanted Moses.
54:33
Where is this Moses? Where is this deliverer?
54:36
The goal is to destroy God's people, but he wanted to destroy
54:40
whoever could be Savior. It's the same strategy when he
54:46
comes into a family. He looks for the most spiritual
54:49
person. Who is the intercessor in this
54:52
family? Who is the person who is most
54:54
discerning, who has trained himself to dream dreams, to see
54:57
visions. You find out that there is an
54:59
isolated attack on one person. And sometimes we make the
55:03
mistake of Esther. We say, my God, I don't know
55:06
what is wrong with this guy. Things are not working.
55:08
No, the attack is supposed to be for you.
55:10
He started with the man. Because when he brings down the
55:14
strongest person. Then he can attack every other
55:16
person. So if you laugh an attack on a
55:21
man of God, you are laughing at your future, because when the
55:24
devil is done with him, he will come.
55:27
You do not yet have the level of spiritual intelligence.
55:30
The stamina and the capacity to wage that war in the spirit by
55:34
yourself, the one who stands for you, stands with you, prays
55:39
awake while you are sleeping. Satan will.
55:41
Launch an attack in the name of Jesus.
55:43
We declare and declare. Every man of God, every
55:46
spiritual voice in this nation, in this region who is under
55:51
attack for the sake of the people he or she is leading, We
55:54
decree and declare, let the power of darkness stay away from
55:59
their lives. Let it be stayed away from their
56:02
families, be stayed away from their destinies, in the name of
56:07
Jesus who is. Lenny, Satan does not start by
56:18
attacking a crowd. It's a foolish strategy.
56:22
No, he looks for the strongest voice, the voice mandated by God
56:27
to raise, to build, to anoint. Are we together?
56:31
Talk to me. When Satan wanted in his
56:34
thinking to abort redemption, did he kill everybody?
56:38
He looked for Jesus, except that it was a hidden wisdom of God.
56:42
When he found Jesus and Jesus declared that he was the son of
56:46
God, he stopped he. He even let Barabbas go because
56:50
his interest was Jesus. When Jesus died, I could imagine
56:54
him having a big. Relief.
56:55
Suddenly Jesus shows up in hell and says you made a big mistake,
57:01
you killed me for their sake and you are correct because now you
57:05
gave me the legitimacy to hand over the righteousness of God in
57:09
Christ. You see that now it was with his
57:15
own strategy that he was defeated.
57:19
Let me tell you this the moment you begin to be prayerful to
57:23
fast and pray, I'd like you to be vigilant because your
57:27
dedication is sending a signal in the Spirit.
57:30
And when Satan looks at you, he's looking at 10 people behind
57:33
you who your growth is covering. Are we together?
57:37
When Satan looks at you as a mother, he knows that your
57:40
children are not yet born again. Your spouse is not yet born
57:43
again. But he's hearing your prayer
57:45
while you are praying in the night, and he wants to attack
57:48
you to send the dots of discouragement.
57:51
God is speaking to someone tonight to send the dots of a
57:54
housing problem, a health problem.
57:57
The whole goal is to distract you.
58:04
Now listen. Most believers are not Apostolic
58:07
in interpreting spiritual things.
58:10
So they in the midst of attacks and negative conditions,
58:15
sometimes they think they offended God because as far as
58:18
they are concerned, they cannot find anything in their life that
58:21
should have warranted that attack.
58:23
Satan is always generational in the things that he does.
58:27
When he looks at one man, he finds out how many nations are
58:30
behind you. That determines the gravity of
58:32
the attack. So you can be as innocent, as
58:35
sincere as you. Are why is the financial problem
58:39
befalling me? Is because he's seen 10 churches
58:42
through your increase. He's not just looking at your
58:44
bank account. He's seen 10 churches that will
58:47
be built when you become a Kingdom millionaire.
58:49
That's what he's attacking, not your bank account.
58:53
Are we together? Why is he insisting that your
58:56
child becomes autistic? Because he's seen a prophet.
59:00
It's not about autism. Help that Lady under the
59:02
anointed. He's seen a prophet.
59:05
He's seen an apostle. He knows that there is a script
59:10
in the Spirit that a prophet will arise from this womb.
59:18
Why is he stopping you from getting the church land?
59:20
Why is he stopping your husband from a job?
59:23
You think he does not want you to have a house?
59:25
That's too small a reason. He wants to tear the marriage
59:28
apart because he knows through that union there is a Savior who
59:32
will come up. Learn to interpret every attack
59:37
from the lens of prophecy. You are too small a reason for
59:41
Satan to invest his energy. He's attacking what you
59:45
represent, not just you, at tracking the destinies behind
59:49
you. Not just you.
59:50
A lake, A paranto siata. And let's take a paraka parado
59:57
siata laco siata, Hallelujah. And let me tell you this, ladies
1:00:04
and gentlemen, I submit to you by the integrity of God's Word.
1:00:08
The gravity of the attack represents the weight of glory
1:00:11
He has seen. It is true.
1:00:15
It is true. It is true.
1:00:21
Show me any man who has imagined the Spirit without a story of
1:00:26
fighting the beast of Ephesus, without a story of surviving
1:00:30
attacks. I show you fake growth.
1:00:33
Anyone you see carrying an Apostolic prophetic mantle.
1:00:38
The requirement is that you must have survived all kinds of
1:00:41
things. He will attack you.
1:00:44
It doesn't matter who you are. He attacked Moses.
1:00:47
You know how many children died because he was looking for
1:00:49
Moses? You know how many children died
1:00:52
because he was looking for Jesus?
1:00:57
The dream is not about you, Joseph.
1:00:59
The dream is about Israel. Getting into the world is not
1:01:03
about you, Joseph. No, you are too small a reason
1:01:06
for your brothers to hate you. That hatred was not natural.
1:01:10
It was engineered because you saw the sun, you saw the moon,
1:01:14
and you saw 11. Stars bowing.
1:01:21
While men slept. Hallelujah #2 when Satan is done
1:01:33
attacking priesthood, attacking the spiritual voices, or you may
1:01:38
want to write the strongest spiritual force within any unit,
1:01:43
any family, any territory, the next port of call is he attacks
1:01:47
the church. Notice the progression.
1:01:50
The goal is to destroy society, but he starts by attacking
1:01:54
priesthood. When he's done with priesthood
1:01:57
attacking your consecration. Attaching your message,
1:02:01
adulterating it, or stopping a wholesome delivery of truth.
1:02:05
His next assignment is to come to the church.
1:02:08
Why the church? Because the church is called the
1:02:11
pillar and the ground of truth. First Timothy 3:15 I sense the
1:02:18
glory of God in this place, I'm telling you.
1:02:21
Your glory stangible in this place, Lord, you're doing
1:02:30
something great, awaken supernatural faith.
1:02:41
Your glory tangible in this place, Lord, you're doing
1:02:50
something great, awaken supernatural faith.
1:02:58
Sing with me. Please be seated while you hear
1:03:41
me teach. I like you to use intelligence
1:03:45
and tell me whether you can see the 60s repeating itself again.
1:03:49
You see, the pattern is the same.
1:03:52
He's done it before. This is not the first time he's
1:03:55
fighting a man of God. It is his strategy.
1:03:58
It will not change. Now he's fighting the church.
1:04:02
How does he fight the church? Listen, he brings division.
1:04:08
He brings this unity. He sow seeds of discord.
1:04:14
Satan finds the church as the ground and the pillar of truth.
1:04:21
Doctor Delhi Osumakindeis here his his PhD, his thesis and I
1:04:25
benefited greatly. His thesis was, I think
1:04:28
something along, you know, religion and the move of God and
1:04:31
so on and so forth. And he sent me an article one
1:04:34
time, part of his thesis on the history of the church, the move
1:04:38
of God in Nigeria for a case study.
1:04:40
And I was almost in tears as I studied it because I saw a
1:04:43
repetition. The things that happened before
1:04:47
we were born. Same strategy.
1:04:50
He fights priesthood, then he begins to fight the church.
1:04:53
He uses the weapon of disunity. He uses the weapon of division.
1:05:00
He uses seeds of discord. Let me tell you this, Satan does
1:05:06
not fight the church by necessarily bringing an external
1:05:10
force. He creates the trouble of the
1:05:12
church within the church. In medicine, we call it
1:05:16
autoimmune disease. Am I right on that?
1:05:19
Where your body, the antibodies that were designed.
1:05:23
Talk to me medical people, am I right on that, that they are
1:05:26
supposed to fight the external forces and yet for some reason
1:05:32
they begin to fight itself and in fighting itself, they believe
1:05:39
they are doing God's service. It's an attack.
1:05:43
It's a strategy, that autoimmune strategy, the body of Christ
1:05:48
globally. Is going through it right now.
1:05:56
So if I fight past or not and he fights me, what happens to those
1:06:02
who love both of us? Are you seeing where the problem
1:06:06
is? What happens to those who have
1:06:09
benefited from His worship and have benefited from this
1:06:13
Apostolic ministry? You keep young believers in
1:06:15
limbo, confused because of the pressure for allegiance.
1:06:27
I can tell you you studied the move of God in Scotland.
1:06:31
This was the progression of the decline it.
1:06:34
Got to a point where priesthood, you know, when you study God's
1:06:38
generals. You find out that there was a
1:06:40
time this began to happen between Alexander the way are we
1:06:45
together and Maria Woodward eater Alexander the way Now
1:06:49
history would teach us that he was told that there was a woman
1:06:53
who was being mightily used by. God and there were all kinds of
1:06:57
trances happening in the ministry and he felt insulted
1:07:01
and he began to speak against her without verifying what was
1:07:05
there. It affected the program of God.
1:07:11
The thing that is, is the thing that was.
1:07:16
The past holds the key to the future.
1:07:19
If you can look back you will know how to go forward.
1:07:26
Are we together? I can tell you the move of God
1:07:31
in Glasgow would never have ended except that war came on
1:07:35
the church divisions. Now don't get me wrong, there
1:07:39
are times that there's a need to correct things that are wrong
1:07:42
and so on and so forth. I'm not endorsing licentiousness
1:07:46
and saying everything should just go.
1:07:47
But we need to be careful. Remember what I taught you now
1:07:52
about autoimmune? Disease.
1:07:56
When your body begins to fight your body, bacteria and viruses
1:08:00
don't need to do much. You are already dead.
1:08:02
It's only a matter of time. Are we together?
1:08:07
I am for Paul, I am for Apollos. Now those who become victims of
1:08:12
this are the sincere members and I'm praying in the name of Jesus
1:08:16
that beginning from Glasgow, spreading across UK, Europe to
1:08:20
Africa, America, God is going to begin to unite and meet the body
1:08:26
of Christ. Are we together?
1:08:27
That we may be different in various ways, but that those
1:08:32
differences are too small a reason to sit down and plot the
1:08:36
downfall and the antagonism of one another.
1:08:40
We must look at the bigger program of God who is learning
1:08:43
tonight. Satan fights the church.
1:08:47
He starts from within. Then when the church begins to
1:08:51
fight from within, it legitimizes external forces to
1:08:55
join that fight because now they have the legitimate ground to
1:08:59
say, listen, we have to come. We can come and intrude on this.
1:09:03
Does it look like what is happening in the church now?
1:09:05
Anybody can write anything against any church, any pastor,
1:09:09
anyone. You know where they got that
1:09:11
authority from? The way we have treated
1:09:14
ourselves when we treat ourselves with disdain,
1:09:17
dishonor, abusing the grace of God upon one another, it gives
1:09:21
the credence for people. Who are not of God to make vain
1:09:26
contributions? We together, please pay
1:09:36
attention to the foundation I'm laying tonight.
1:09:39
When the church begins to fight itself, it loses credence as.
1:09:44
A reliable platform for adding value to society when the church
1:09:49
begins to fight itself. The government, institutions,
1:09:53
individuals now have a right to say the church's contribution to
1:09:58
the state of the nation is not needed because they cannot see
1:10:02
any value. We are.
1:10:03
Bringing it begins to legitimize Antichrist policies.
1:10:08
That's the third level. The third level is when Satan
1:10:12
now destroys the church. You know what he does?
1:10:15
He begins to infiltrate. Institutions with an Antichrist
1:10:20
compromised belief system. Belief systems that are
1:10:25
Antichrist Belief systems that are against the culture of the
1:10:30
Kingdom, family, education, politics, government, all of
1:10:37
these Antichrist belief systems start coming in and because they
1:10:41
are institutionalized, they will be protected by laws and
1:10:45
policies. This is how the program of God
1:10:48
dies. When it was time to abort the
1:10:51
program of God over Babylon, Satan, look for one man, Daniel.
1:10:56
Is that in your Bible? He attacked that one man trying
1:10:59
to find a place for compromise as far as consecration and all
1:11:03
of that is found. They could not find anything
1:11:05
wrong. You know where he went.
1:11:07
He went to the government, the parliament and he said he not a
1:11:10
law. O king, that for 30 days.
1:11:14
There will not be prayer to any God except by you, because He
1:11:17
knew that as touching the matter of his loyalty and devotion,
1:11:21
Daniel would not default. Ladies and gentlemen, listen to
1:11:30
me. Corrupted or imbalanced
1:11:36
teachings from the pulpit, I wrote here alongside the ideas
1:11:41
that come from frustrated believers now from a new set of
1:11:47
largely poisonous value systems that are absorbed in society.
1:11:52
Corrupted. Or imbalanced teachings that
1:11:56
come from the pulpit alongside the ideas that come from
1:12:01
frustrated believers. Now form a new set of largely
1:12:08
poisonous value systems that are absorbed into society.
1:12:13
I'll give you an example of those value systems.
1:12:17
Poisonous value systems like ignoring prayer.
1:12:20
Are we together because somebody will come up and say prayer does
1:12:25
not work? So you see, he sells an idea or
1:12:30
she sells an idea that society begins to embrace.
1:12:35
And then on the flip side, another person comes up with a
1:12:39
very spiritual but destructive value system, like relying on
1:12:44
prayer alone without responsibility to change
1:12:47
society. There are people who believe the
1:12:51
only thing that changes society is prayer alone.
1:12:54
That is not. True.
1:12:55
Hear it from me, that is not true.
1:12:57
Prayer is pivotal to betting revival and advancement in any
1:13:02
society, but it is not the only key.
1:13:05
A generation that only prays and does not rise up to
1:13:08
responsibility will have abundance of graces that will
1:13:12
remain dormant. It cannot be engaged.
1:13:18
Daniel prayed in the night to receive the secret, but he went
1:13:22
to stand before the king and to intelligently articulate it.
1:13:26
Are we together now? So you see the kind of poisonous
1:13:29
mindsets that destroy the move of God.
1:13:32
So on one hand, all coming from the church, you have someone
1:13:35
fighting prayer, for instance, and trying to render to make it
1:13:38
important and unnecessary. Then you have another person.
1:13:42
To the other side of the pendulum, exaggerating the
1:13:45
concept of it without addition of responsibility.
1:13:50
It is always king priest. It is not priest alone.
1:13:54
If you are a priest alone, you would die in the temple.
1:13:56
If you are a king alone, you don't have the spiritual
1:13:59
backing. It is king priest.
1:14:05
Are we together? Let me give you another
1:14:08
poisonous value system that can come when Satan finds the
1:14:12
church, the exaggerated prosperity or materialistic
1:14:18
gospel. Now that's a serious problem in
1:14:21
the body of Christ in an attempt to teach that, you know,
1:14:25
abundance is God's. Will sometimes you have on one
1:14:28
hand of the pendulum an exaggerated prosperity or
1:14:32
materialistic gospel everything money everything money
1:14:37
everything money doesn't matter whether you are God fearing just
1:14:40
have money. We equate money to spirituality.
1:14:43
No, that is not correct. These are the wrong value
1:14:46
systems that water down the program of God.
1:14:49
Now the flip side, I will always give you balance the balance in
1:14:53
correcting that value system of exaggerated materialism if we
1:14:58
are not. Careful, we swing to the other
1:15:01
side and embrace poverty and mediocrity to demonstrate
1:15:05
holiness. Both of them are wrong.
1:15:08
Are we together now? Your attention should not be
1:15:11
your materials and money and all of that.
1:15:14
It would destroy your consecration, destroy the move
1:15:17
of God. But again, if you reject the
1:15:20
abundance that it takes to drive the program of God like sound of
1:15:24
revival. You can imagine the kind of
1:15:27
resources that have gone in to make this happen.
1:15:30
That is because we embrace the whole council of God who is
1:15:34
learning. Now there are many of you.
1:15:36
If only you are settled down to listen to a balanced message on
1:15:40
wealth and abundance, you will not be having a problem paying
1:15:43
your bills because within those teachings are the secret that
1:15:47
can liberate you and give you time to serve God well.
1:15:50
But because you have been programmed that paying attention
1:15:54
to this other matters will interrupt your sense of
1:15:57
holiness. You have rejected the order
1:15:59
dimensions of the Kingdom and it's affecting your entire life.
1:16:03
Now someone shout the whole counsel of God.
1:16:07
Say it like you are learning. Say the whole council of God are
1:16:11
we learning tonight? Let me give you #3.
1:16:17
What is the Third Point? I'm just.
1:16:19
I'm just. Picking a few.
1:16:21
There are so many of them. I'll give you the third over
1:16:24
dependence on visions and trances against the Word of God.
1:16:30
So that is another corrupted When Satan begins to fight the
1:16:33
church, these kinds of exaggerations begin to come over
1:16:37
dependence on the prophetic, over dependence on visions and
1:16:42
trances as a way of directing your life without honor to the
1:16:47
supremacy of the Word of God. You studied the move of God in
1:16:50
the 50s and 60s, especially Nigeria.
1:16:54
What corrupted the prophetic movement was that those who
1:16:58
carried that mantle, they were largely uneducated and because
1:17:02
they did not pay attention to the supremacy of the world,
1:17:06
there was a mix of experiences, God or them experiences and
1:17:11
experiences that came from familiar spirit.
1:17:14
They combine everything and call it God experiences.
1:17:18
So you will find a man manifest as a Christian today and then
1:17:22
manifest like a you know some how about person tomorrow and
1:17:26
all of them are executing what they saw.
1:17:30
The realm of the spirit is a complicated realm.
1:17:33
Just because you saw does not mean it's of God.
1:17:36
The Word of God is the reference that purifies all experiences.
1:17:40
Who is learning now? So here we have by the attack of
1:17:45
Satan over the church, we have an exaggerated and over
1:17:48
dependence on visions and dreams.
1:17:51
I can tell you this, there are many.
1:17:53
People today who got into trouble because they had a
1:17:57
vision that says to do what got them into trouble.
1:18:00
They honor the vision without honor to the world who is
1:18:04
learning. There are preachers today whose
1:18:06
lives entirely revolve around trances and visions, and you
1:18:11
find out that they score well today.
1:18:14
Because they see correctly and then when they delve into
1:18:18
erroneous visions, because Satan can appear as an Angel of light.
1:18:22
Forever, O God, not visions, not trances, Your word is settled.
1:18:28
Is someone learning? I'm showing you that all these
1:18:31
problems you see in the body of Christ, It was planted by Satan
1:18:35
while men slept. Now the flip side to this is
1:18:41
over intellectualizing spiritual things with no allowance for the
1:18:47
prophetic. I must balance that.
1:18:49
There are people on the flip side, in an attempt to balance
1:18:52
visions and trances and supernatural experiences, they
1:18:57
hate everything prophetic. They hate everything visions.
1:19:01
They hate every once it is not 1 + 1, once it is higher than
1:19:05
science and higher than brain work, they fight it.
1:19:09
Those people remain grounded. Someone can tell them I see an
1:19:12
attack on your life and they despise prophesying and die by
1:19:16
the next day. Such a man was a man who the
1:19:20
king leaned on in Samaria, Elijah came and said by this
1:19:24
time tomorrow and the man said don't bring this your nonsense
1:19:28
prophetic things. And the prophet said not
1:19:30
everybody is fake because you have despised it.
1:19:32
You will see it, but you will not eat of it.
1:19:35
Can I tell you this within the limit of balance, the prophetic
1:19:39
and supernatural experiences is a bailout system.
1:19:42
In one moment your life can be delivered of a myriad of
1:19:45
troubles. Take it from me, who is learning
1:19:52
I'm a product of prophecy. I'm a product of prophecy.
1:19:56
Sound of revival, you see, is a product of prophecy.
1:20:00
However, the way to engage the realm of the Spirit properly is
1:20:04
that the Word of God must be exalted above every other
1:20:08
vision. Every other experience you have
1:20:11
heard me say it is written is greater than I saw.
1:20:16
It is written is greater than I heard, meaning if you see
1:20:19
something negative about me, even if you are correct, I can
1:20:23
use it is written and override it.
1:20:27
So the prophetic should not scare me if it is.
1:20:30
Negative and it interrupts what the word of God says should be.
1:20:34
I take the written word and override any vision whatsoever.
1:20:39
Who believes that? If you're learning tonight, say
1:20:45
Amen. Let me tell you this Many
1:20:51
believers are in a maze of confusion as to which of these
1:20:56
various thought lines these belief systems will embrace,
1:21:00
because all of them are marketed from preachers and by preachers,
1:21:06
and all of them supposedly have their proof.
1:21:09
The man who does not pray claims to have his proof.
1:21:11
The man who prays only claims to have his proof.
1:21:15
The man who prophecies only claims to have his proof.
1:21:18
The man who uses brain work only claims to have his proof.
1:21:21
Who is learning now? And so in the midst of supposed
1:21:24
evidences, most believers are in limbo.
1:21:27
They do not know who to believe. They do not know what to
1:21:29
believe. And some of those people I'm
1:21:34
talking about are you right here looking at me?
1:21:36
Because today you love the prophetic when you see something
1:21:40
in you wants to reach out, but then your educated self just
1:21:44
says, forget that nonsense. You see that now?
1:21:51
Behold the glory of the Lord. Behold the.
1:22:01
Glory of the Lord, something is happening to you tonight.
1:22:06
Behold the glory of the Lord. Behold the glory of.
1:22:17
The Lord Hallelujah. Now hold on, let me give you the
1:22:22
last belief system that comes as an attack.
1:22:25
This is by no means all of it. I just picked out a few to show
1:22:29
you the confusion when Satan attacks the church.
1:22:32
These are the kinds of things we see the last confusion or the
1:22:37
last attack is the church dissociating itself from matters
1:22:42
of economy, matters of government and matters of
1:22:45
policies is being one of the greatest unbecoming of the
1:22:49
Church in the 21st century. We claim it does not matter who
1:22:52
decides what concerning us. And today we have become
1:22:56
victims. Are we together?
1:22:57
Because when there is nobody defending the interests of the
1:23:00
Church in Parliament, defending the interests of God in high.
1:23:05
Places there are times you can be Joseph.
1:23:08
You don't have access to Pharaoh.
1:23:10
You need somebody already in the palace to talk to Pharaoh about
1:23:14
you. There are many economic issues
1:23:21
that the church dissociated. Herself from while paying the
1:23:24
price Today, many people had opportunity to be in the place
1:23:28
of power, but we frowned at politics, calling it a dirty
1:23:32
game, and when unbelievers decide your destiny, they can
1:23:36
lock up your church overnight because they have no respect for
1:23:39
your convictions. One time he told the apostle, do
1:23:44
not be afraid. I have many people in that city.
1:23:47
Your advantage is number many who are obedient to the faith.
1:23:52
I promise myself as a man of God that I will never raise a people
1:23:56
who are only spiritually vibrant.
1:23:58
I will raise a people who are influential, who will occupy the
1:24:02
strategic positions and can defend the interests of God.
1:24:07
And let me. Speak over someone already.
1:24:09
May that grace that allocates you to the place of influence so
1:24:13
that you can preserve the program of God.
1:24:16
I pray from my heart. May that grace rest upon you.
1:24:23
Hallelujah, please be seated. You have heard me teach.
1:24:26
And let me say this as I attempt to wrap up now.
1:24:29
There was a man called Joseph of Arimathea in the Bible.
1:24:34
That was the man who used his influence to receive the body of
1:24:37
Jesus. No one else had the audacity and
1:24:40
the relationship to talk to Herod, to release the body of
1:24:44
Jesus. Jesus would have died on the
1:24:47
cross there. You never would have been able
1:24:49
to say, oh grave, where is your victory or death?
1:24:51
Where is your sting? He had to be buried in a virgin
1:24:54
tomb, but someone of means with capacity had to use His.
1:24:58
Influence to speak to power. I'm praying that God will raise
1:25:03
people from the Church who have the wherewithal, economic
1:25:08
wherewithal, political wherewithal.
1:25:11
Are we together who can stamp darkness, not by fighting it
1:25:15
fanatically, but by agreeing as a majority to pass a policy that
1:25:20
defends the next 50 years of the Church?
1:25:24
You believe that shout Amen. Let me tell you, ladies and
1:25:30
gentlemen, if the Church refuses to engage herself in matters of
1:25:35
state and nation building, there will rise another Pharaoh who
1:25:39
does not understand the covenant that birthed Joseph, and there
1:25:43
will turn people. Who came to find food to become
1:25:46
slaves? Hallelujah.
1:25:50
I have seen the benefit of being Apostolic.
1:25:54
I have. Our next teaching will be on
1:25:56
Apostolic Christianity. I want to show you what it means
1:26:00
to be an Apostolic Christian is is beyond I receive is beyond
1:26:05
give me. It comes with an orientation
1:26:08
that produces a witness. Are we together praise the name
1:26:15
of the Lord. So Satan fights the church.
1:26:26
Let me give you the last key. I sense a strong anointing about
1:26:29
to. Fall in this place.
1:26:33
Let me tell you what Satan does. He infiltrates the various
1:26:37
institutions. This is the third way he attacks
1:26:39
the program of God. He infiltrates the various
1:26:43
institutions that make up society with an Antichrist value
1:26:48
system. For instance, family, for
1:26:53
instance, education, for instance, government, for
1:26:57
instance economy. You know what he does?
1:27:03
He. Infiltrates these institutions
1:27:05
with compromised value systems so that those value systems
1:27:09
don't corrupt. Those satanic become protected,
1:27:13
defended, and difficult to contest with.
1:27:17
That's how he destroys the move of God.
1:27:18
If you think Satan is going to come to a crusade ground and
1:27:22
fight the program of God, you are mistaken.
1:27:24
He does not fight the program of God on crusade grounds.
1:27:27
Satan is wise enough to know that a crusade ground can ignite
1:27:32
the move of God, but a crusade ground does not protect the move
1:27:36
of God. What protects the move of God is
1:27:39
the ability to be Apostolic in your Kingdom.
1:27:41
Understanding. Are we together?
1:27:43
And put the structures that protect and.
1:27:47
The program of God. Show me a territory whose
1:27:50
priesthood is strong. Show me a territory whose church
1:27:55
is united. Show me a territory with a
1:27:58
strong spiritual voice no matter what Satan does.
1:28:02
The move of God will not die. So if you've been asking how the
1:28:09
fire of God that was settled by John Knox, settled by all of
1:28:13
these men, how he died, this is the formula.
1:28:16
There was an attack on the consecration of priests.
1:28:20
There was an attack on the message that the message you
1:28:23
started with, because of economic issues or because of
1:28:27
ego or carelessness, you no longer able to preach the purity
1:28:32
of that message of the gospel. Did you know it's?
1:28:34
Surprising right now, and with all due respect, that in many.
1:28:38
Circles. You don't hear an altar call
1:28:41
again, even on crusade grounds. A crusade ground becomes like a
1:28:51
business seminar. And after it the man of God
1:28:54
called Joshua Selman. After preaching, he says, well,
1:28:57
now that you have had me, I hope that what you have had you do
1:29:00
something about it. Why did you come there?
1:29:04
A crusade is not. It's not a workshop, the
1:29:07
singular. Assignment is a harvest of
1:29:10
souls. But you see, when Satan has
1:29:13
corrupted your own passion, you will lose the passion for souls.
1:29:17
So you cannot transfer that passion to bring the lost,
1:29:20
although you are still in ministry.
1:29:27
When we love to raise money more than we love to win souls.
1:29:32
When we love to have reputations more than we love to hide behind
1:29:36
the cross and see Jesus revealed, these are some of the
1:29:40
things that will corrupt the move of God.
1:29:42
Ladies and gentlemen, hear me. I have revealed to you tonight
1:29:46
the strategy of Satan, and it is happening again.
1:29:51
I see it happening in Nigeria. Sadly, I see it happening in
1:29:54
many parts of Africa. I see it happening across.
1:29:58
I see a battle over priesthood. Satan is fighting the spiritual
1:30:02
voices, fighting their consecration and fighting
1:30:06
balance. I see Satan fighting the church,
1:30:10
selling divisions, believing we are doing God's service.
1:30:16
Creating an autoimmune condition where we become the reasons for
1:30:21
the pain of one another and we rejoice over it.
1:30:31
Selling all kinds of mindsets. Imbalance.
1:30:35
Corrupted value systems swinging to one side of the pendulum.
1:30:39
Look at me. Do you know why there is
1:30:42
widespread imbalance in the church?
1:30:45
I will tell you why. Because we have refused to
1:30:47
listen to one another, our pride has educated us into believing
1:30:52
that we know God alone. And so another sermon that
1:30:56
should balance your understanding.
1:30:58
You have rejected it to the detriment of your growth.
1:31:01
And as the shepherd, so goes the membership.
1:31:06
So if I teach on consecration and power and miracles, but my
1:31:10
people are broke and hungry, there is another vessel within
1:31:14
the body raised by God to teach economic empowerment, the right.
1:31:18
Way. If I ignore that person, my
1:31:20
members will be punished financially because there will
1:31:23
be a replica of my pride, a replica of my limitations.
1:31:28
Flip to the other side. God raises a man to be
1:31:31
excellent, an administrator, but he does not have the grace to
1:31:34
call people to prayer and consecration.
1:31:37
Now if I do not open up my heart to receive the supply that comes
1:31:42
from that grace, that stream, that man of God, that ministry,
1:31:46
you know what happens? I will raise business moguls,
1:31:49
great people who are totally Antichrist in their belief
1:31:52
system. Every membership reflects the
1:31:56
humility or the pride of the vessel that leads them.
1:32:01
If the man of God is open hearted to embrace the whole
1:32:04
counsel of God, that humility, that disposition becomes a
1:32:08
blessing to the people He's raising.
1:32:13
No matter how I sing, I don't have the grace to lead worship
1:32:18
like Pastor Nathaniel. It is not a suggestion.
1:32:22
God raised him. He didn't raise him to hold a
1:32:24
trumpet. He raised him as a trumpet.
1:32:27
Are we together now? And so when personati is
1:32:30
ministering, I don't see that as the host.
1:32:32
No, I don't fool myself. Waiting for my tongue to preach,
1:32:36
my heart is opening, I open and I'm receiving from a vessel
1:32:41
anointed by God, ordained by God.
1:32:44
You watch him sitting while I'm preaching and you would think
1:32:46
it's not the pastor, not you know, it is the wisdom that
1:32:49
preserves the move of, of God. There are many pastors here who
1:32:55
have left their schedules, left a lot of things not to come and
1:32:58
preach. They didn't just come to honor
1:33:00
me, they came to receive. You think they are not anointed.
1:33:04
You look at the works they are doing.
1:33:06
There are many thousands of ministers connecting right now,
1:33:10
great servants of God doing great things.
1:33:13
But they know that there is more.
1:33:16
When we learn to respect the investment of the spirit across
1:33:19
the body, this autoimmune condition will stop, leave
1:33:23
society. Society does not have the power
1:33:26
to fight God. There is an autoimmune problem
1:33:29
within the church that needs to be solved, that mutual respect
1:33:33
for the graces that have been invested.
1:33:41
I came with a number of our leaders here from Abuja.
1:33:44
If they are leading prayer or they are leading whatever, I
1:33:47
don't stand there and say I'm, I'm a man of God.
1:33:49
These are my sons. No, they are ministering in the
1:33:52
capacity of the grace of God upon their lives.
1:33:55
And even though you raise them, you humble yourself and receive
1:33:59
the dimension of God committed to them.
1:34:02
Who is learning tonight? You've heard me say it and I
1:34:08
will say it openly. If the whole world is colonia
1:34:12
alone, we're in trouble because there are dimensions not
1:34:15
committed to me. It then means I will sell a
1:34:19
sincere heart, but it will come with the limitation that will
1:34:23
stop the body from growing holistically.
1:34:26
Are we together? No matter how I love you, I
1:34:30
can't teach you a marriage and relationship in a way that will
1:34:33
bless you. I can't teach you and it will
1:34:34
turn to a crusade ground. You know, while I'm teaching,
1:34:38
you start shouting all night and launching and I will cooperate
1:34:41
with the Holy Spirit and sing and dance till you are there.
1:34:44
You see that now? Now I'm not apologetic about it
1:34:48
because it's not, it's not my calling.
1:34:50
So when I hear the one who has been called in that dimension
1:34:53
with proof, you sit down and listen.
1:34:56
You are a man of God, but respect the area of grace that
1:35:01
is outside of your jurisdiction. You see all these
1:35:12
instrumentalists and these gentlemen, every one of them,
1:35:16
every single one of them is functioning in the grace
1:35:19
allotted upon them, and they are also contributing to the
1:35:23
spiritual energy that you are receiving.
1:35:26
If I ignore the investment of God upon their life because of
1:35:29
pride, I'm causing an autoimmune problem.
1:35:33
Don't forget what I taught you, our pride, our prejudices is
1:35:37
causing a spiritual autoimmune problem where the body fights
1:35:43
itself and Satan is having a field day while we rejoice in
1:35:47
pride, believing we are the only ones doing what is needed to be
1:35:50
done. No colonia has come to Glasgow
1:35:53
not delivering the whole counsel of God as a contribution.
1:35:57
When we are done, God will raise other pastors who are there to
1:36:00
continue. Am I right on that?
1:36:06
Hallelujah, praise the name of the Lord.
1:36:10
I said it one time when I was back home.
1:36:12
Imagine if I were vested with the responsibility of decorating
1:36:16
the stage. What do you think will be here?
1:36:21
A big Bible I will open to Psalm 119.
1:36:24
That will be the decoration. I will place it here to set your
1:36:27
gaze on Jesus. But now you look, the beauty
1:36:31
that we experience here, that's because someone within the body
1:36:35
is not causing an autoimmune problem.
1:36:40
How do you know there's an autoimmune problem within the
1:36:42
body? No growth, no wholesome growth.
1:36:47
I'm saying this because we are going to pray for the body of
1:36:49
Christ. Let me wrap up so that we pray.
1:36:54
I'm stretching enough for tonight.
1:36:56
Write this down and please listen when priesthood gets
1:37:01
compromised or falls below God's standard, when priesthood gets
1:37:09
compromised or falls below God's standard, when the church fails
1:37:17
to be the light, and when institutions embrace value
1:37:23
systems and policies that fight the program of.
1:37:27
God. God's.
1:37:28
Program suffers. I'll take it again slowly.
1:37:32
This will be my final thought, and then I'll speak over your
1:37:34
life. When priesthood, I said, gets
1:37:38
compromised or falls below God's standard.
1:37:43
When the church fails to be the light, especially by creating an
1:37:49
autoimmune problem. When institutions embrace value
1:37:55
systems and policies that fight the program of God, then God's
1:38:02
program, God's salvation program, God's revival fire
1:38:06
program, immediately or gradually dies.
1:38:11
This, ladies and gentlemen, is the mystery of spiritual decline
1:38:17
from the priest to the church to the institutions.
1:38:22
And then the fire dies. Look at me again from the.
1:38:26
Priest. To the church, to the
1:38:30
institutions. Then the fire dies.
1:38:33
He finds the priest. If he prevails.
1:38:36
He finds the church if he prevails.
1:38:39
He fights institutions. If he prevails.
1:38:42
I don't care how powerful that revival started.
1:38:45
It will die. What do you think, therefore, is
1:38:49
the key to sustaining revivals? Let me go ahead of myself.
1:38:53
It means you have to master the systems that protect the
1:38:58
consecration of the priest. Are we together?
1:39:01
You have to understand how to keep the church healthy and
1:39:04
strong and by influence protect the programs and the policies
1:39:11
that are sold to institutions. That's how you preserve the
1:39:14
program of God. God is counting on us.
1:39:20
John Knox has gone to be with the Lord.
1:39:22
Many of the men and the women who were used by God in
1:39:25
Scotland, across every other and every other region, they've gone
1:39:29
to be with the Lord. There are a few of them who are
1:39:32
old now, Gray and old. They do not have the energy now.
1:39:35
The baton has been passed to us. If all we do is to just jump in
1:39:39
ignorance and Sammy Revivalist revival will come will follow
1:39:44
the same pattern and eventually we will watch sadly in our
1:39:48
lifetime, the decline of faith. The.
1:39:51
Decline of spirituality. But tonight I bring you a
1:39:55
message. We will not sleep.
1:39:58
It is why men slept that Satan came and fought priesthood.
1:40:03
It is why men slept that Satan came and fought to the church,
1:40:07
planting a seed within the church, making her fight
1:40:09
herself, and then fighting from the external.
1:40:12
It is why men slept, not understanding the Kingdom, not
1:40:16
understanding the Apostolic order of Christianity, that they
1:40:20
left the various strata of human activities.
1:40:24
Bankrupt of defenders of the faith and Satan hijacked these
1:40:28
institutions and today his enacted policies that are
1:40:32
punishing the church. One policy can stop programs
1:40:37
from happening like this. Did you know that?
1:40:40
So while we fast, while we pray, while we build, we have to trust
1:40:45
God for the strategies. And tomorrow morning and then
1:40:49
the evening, in the evening we are going to have a time of
1:40:52
prayer. We are going to have is going to
1:40:54
be a night of worship, an extended time of prayer and
1:40:58
worship. The prophetic.
1:41:00
When you learn what you learn, you will be receiving the
1:41:03
impartation that will take you to be a witness in the name of
1:41:08
Jesus. I pray for you that the version
1:41:10
of you that came for this conference is not the version
1:41:13
that will return in the name of Jesus Christ.
1:41:18
Can we arise and pray for 5 minutes?
1:41:20
Please be upstanding. Hold hands with someone if you
1:41:22
can. Let's connect by faith again.
1:41:25
I'm going to ask Persona to just play for one minute.
1:41:28
He's just going to play whatever worship God puts in his heart.
1:41:31
Listen and soak for one minute. There is an adversary.
1:41:34
The Bible calls him the devil. There is a plot.
1:41:38
Whilst the church slept, Slept through history both ancient and
1:41:42
modern. Whilst the church is sleeping
1:41:44
right now, unknown to the church, Satan is sowing tears
1:41:48
among wheat. But God by his predetermined
1:41:51
counsel and by his wisdom, his ordained sound of revival UK
1:41:55
2025 to bring that Clarion call. He says I'll wake down that
1:42:00
sleepest and Christ will give you light.
1:42:03
We're going to pray some prayers for a few minutes and I'll allow
1:42:06
personnel just for a minute or two to just allow the sound of
1:42:10
the trumpet speak to your Spirit.
1:42:12
And when that happen, I'll lead you to a few prayers.
1:42:15
Bless you for the night. We're done.
1:42:17
Yes, Sir. Let that be your prayers.
1:42:33
You listen to the trumpet. The.

1:44:19

1:44:39
consecration of preschool, that God will protect our devotion,
1:44:45
that Satan will not gain an entrance.
1:44:49
Go ahead and pray that there will be no sleep, there will be
1:44:53
no slumber upon any man that bears the vessel of the Lord.
1:45:01
Pray in the name of Jesus for those who are fallen.
1:45:06
Pray in the name of Jesus for those who are discouraged, that
1:45:10
God will grant them grace, that they will rise up again.
1:45:15
Preserve us of God's program. Are you praying?
1:45:18
Pray for the pastors in Glasgow. Pray for the pastors in
1:45:23
Scotland, the missionaries, everyone who serves and does the
1:45:29
work of the ministry. You're sending prayer, Morehead.
1:45:32
And pray, Lord, please help them.
1:45:36
Lord, please help them. Let your messages remain pure.
1:45:41
Your messages remain pure. Open their eyes to the other
1:45:46
dimensions they have not seen or they.
1:45:50
Do not know. To the one that does not
1:45:53
understand prayer, open their eyes to understand prayer.
1:45:58
To the one. Who does not have the streets of
1:46:00
Revelation and open their eyes? Access Revelation.
1:46:04
To the one who does not understand excellence, open
1:46:08
their eyes to embrace excellence.
1:46:10
To The Who does not understand influence, open their eyes to
1:46:15
access influence. Let the priest who be strong,
1:46:21
Let the priest who be fight men and women who love Jesus and
1:46:26
serve them with integrity. Protect the Old Town, Protect
1:46:32
our churches. Go ahead and pray for the
1:46:34
church. Pray for every.
1:46:37
Denomination, you know, mention them by name in the name of
1:46:42
Jesus. The auto immune problem where
1:46:46
the church finds the church in the name of Jesus that we can
1:46:51
disagree in love. We can conflict in ideas and
1:46:55
conviction and still resolve love banish the spirit of heads
1:47:01
in the church. Banish I'll speaking one looking
1:47:08
towards a downfall of another. Manish your spirit of pride,
1:47:13
same glory, let it be found. From church that.
1:47:18
Believers will love themselves regardless your differences that
1:47:27
believers will tolerate 1 another and allow one another
1:47:36
grow until we come into the fullness of the the.
1:48:09
Jesus name we pray, Please don't be tired as you pray.
1:48:14
Whether it's a white church, whether it's a black church,
1:48:18
that all of these limitations that divide us, that God will
1:48:22
tear it like the curtain was torn from top to bottom.
1:48:26
Who is agreeing with me regardless of denomination Now
1:48:29
the truth is that listen, listen.
1:48:31
The truth is that we may disagree, justifiably so.
1:48:36
There are churches and individuals who need to upgrade
1:48:38
their understanding. There are churches and
1:48:40
individuals whose lifestyles are questionable.
1:48:44
When I talk about the unity of the church, I don't talk about
1:48:48
embracing everything. Please do not get me wrong.
1:48:51
There are people whose values, teachings and lifestyle truly
1:48:56
demand loving them from a distance because they have not
1:49:00
demonstrated consecration. They have not demonstrated.
1:49:04
A willingness to love Jesus. Don't confuse what I'm saying.
1:49:08
There are people I love sincerely, but I love from afar.
1:49:11
They cannot be my friends. I don't hate them, but we do not
1:49:14
share the same values. Are we together now?
1:49:18
So the message is not a message of universalism to embrace just
1:49:22
anybody and anything. But I'm saying regardless, the
1:49:25
differences is too small a reason to hate.
1:49:29
Hate is not God's strategy. It is not part of God's SNL.
1:49:36
When a church, a denomination has a problem, the Bible says
1:49:39
after we heard this, we cease not to pray.
1:49:43
That is the biblical response. Are we together?
1:49:47
But when you hear that a man of God, a church, is going through
1:49:49
crisis, you don't rejoice and say, after all, they don't have
1:49:52
lights. No, you pray.
1:49:53
That is the character of a believer.
1:49:56
That autoimmune problem can be solved beginning from here.
1:50:02
Are we together now? You don't rejoice over the
1:50:06
downfall of another denomination, another man.
1:50:09
I have friends and people, some Catholics.
1:50:11
There are people following the Catholics, Presbyterian,
1:50:15
Anglican, Pentecostals, it doesn't matter, provided we
1:50:19
stand behind the cross lifting of the name of Jesus.
1:50:24
We don't need to agree in everything to be one.
1:50:27
We just need to agree. That Christ is above us.
1:50:32
Are we together now? Are you ready to pray one final
1:50:36
time before I speak over your life?
1:50:38
Pray over the institutions in Glasgow, family, education,
1:50:43
finances and say in the name of Jesus we declare an invasion of
1:50:49
Kingdom minded Apostolic believers into these systems.
1:50:54
The Church will rise in influence.
1:50:56
We will not just be priests, we will also be kings.
1:50:59
Open your mouth and pray. In one minute, everyone pray.
1:51:07
The government will not enact policies that fights the program
1:51:11
of God. The family setting in Glasgow,
1:51:15
in Scotland, in the UK will not adopt Antichrist value systems,
1:51:21
but fact that value systems. The sanctity of marriage will be
1:51:26
restored, the sanctity of parent who will be restored.
1:51:31
We pray for the educational institutions.
1:51:34
They will not sell an idea that produces the people who hate
1:51:38
God. Pray for the business world.
1:51:43
He will not just be filled with men and women who are
1:51:46
compromised millionaires, compromised billionaires, but
1:51:52
that God will find himself a people consecrated, blessed,
1:51:56
holy, set apart, wise, anointed and prosperous.
1:52:34
Hallelujah, Listen to me, ladies and gentlemen.
1:52:39
The Bible declares that there is no other name under heaven given
1:52:43
unto men. By which we must be saved.
1:52:46
Let me have the attention of everyone here, and that includes
1:52:49
those who are following online. The greatest way to sleep is not
1:52:55
to die is to reject Jesus. When you reject Jesus, you are
1:53:00
in a state of slumber with no hope of waking up.
1:53:04
The man who dies in Christ only slept for a while.
1:53:07
He will be resurrected. But the man without Christ, even
1:53:11
though alive, the Bible says he's dead already.
1:53:14
John chapter 3 and verse 16 says For God so loved the world that
1:53:18
he gave his one and only begotten Son, that whosoever
1:53:22
believeth on him should not perish, but have life
1:53:25
everlasting. Verse 17 says for God did not
1:53:28
send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the
1:53:31
world through Him might believe. We're speaking about finding the
1:53:36
flames of revival, stopping men from the spiritual slumber that
1:53:41
gives Satan access to destroy individuals lives and families.
1:53:47
Ladies and gentlemen, it starts with this declaration of the
1:53:50
Lordship of Jesus. A generation that rejects Jesus,
1:53:55
His love, His substitutionary sacrifice is the generation that
1:54:01
will partner with Satan in aborting, quenching, destroying
1:54:06
the move of God. The Lord called for this solemn
1:54:09
assembly this first night and scattered across His thousands
1:54:13
of people and men and women in desperate need of salvation.
1:54:19
What does it mean to be saved? To acknowledge the Lordship of
1:54:22
Jesus over your life, declaring Him as Savior, as Lord and King,
1:54:27
receiving of that free gift of His life that came through the
1:54:32
substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus.
1:54:35
Give me the honor tonight. Ladies and gentlemen, wherever
1:54:38
you are, you are in this place. And whilst you heard me teach,
1:54:41
the Spirit of God began to speak to you, perhaps on knowing to
1:54:45
you, you have been a contributor to destroying the move of God,
1:54:50
the program of God. The reason is because within
1:54:52
your destiny is a great man and woman of God, a great vessel.
1:54:57
But it cannot happen when you are outside of Christ.
1:55:00
Let me usher you today into this new experience.
1:55:04
We call it the new birth. We call it salvation, where you
1:55:08
are saved by declaring the lordship of Jesus over your
1:55:11
life. I'm going to count 1 to to five
1:55:15
for sake of time. There are thousands of people
1:55:17
and I believe hundreds ready to make this decision and then
1:55:21
thousands of others by way of Internet and television as I
1:55:26
count 1 to 5. If you've been convicted by the
1:55:29
Holy Spirit and you're saying apostle, give me a chance to
1:55:32
make it right. Tonight as personal leads us
1:55:35
through this song, someones knocking at your door.
1:55:37
I pray that you don't allow him to keep knocking.
1:55:41
I count 1 to 5. I want to see the first few
1:55:43
people bold, strong, courageous to say I want to make it right
1:55:49
with Jesus tonight. Make your way to the front as I
1:55:52
begin my count. Someone is running.
1:55:54
God bless you. Someone is running to Jesus I.
1:55:56
Begin my counting now. One, two.
1:56:03
Come on, Koinonia, let's celebrate that there's a harvest
1:56:07
of souls. Come, come to Jesus, God bless
1:56:11
you, God bless you. Keep clapping as they come, keep
1:56:15
clapping as they come. So keep clapping as they come.
1:56:19
God is finding an army of men and women tonight.
1:56:24
A brother who is on a shame, the sister who is on a shame, a
1:56:28
general in the making, a Kingdom financier in the making.
1:56:32
Make your way to Jesus 2. He's been looking for so long.
1:56:44
3. Keep coming.
1:56:47
Don't. Tell too far Leave your seat
1:56:49
from the father's house, make your.
1:56:51
Way to the front door. Oh Jesus, Jesus, Jesus is at the
1:57:03
door 4. Someone is winning that war
1:57:09
finally tonight. Hallelujah.
1:57:23
My goodness, are you celebrating a harvest of souls already
1:57:25
tonight? This is unto Jesus, This is unto
1:57:31
Jesus. Hallelujah, ladies and
1:57:36
gentlemen, please look at me and I want you to listen to me
1:57:39
someday. This is not my first time saying
1:57:42
it, but I'll say it again. Someday we will stand before
1:57:45
Jesus, not in a conference like this, and then we'll see every
1:57:51
single one of these persons, and some of them will look and say
1:57:54
thank you. Pastor Nat, Thank you Apostle,
1:57:57
for preaching every lukewarmness, every laxity out
1:58:02
of my life and giving me an opportunity to love Jesus.
1:58:06
My brothers and my sisters, please look at me.
1:58:09
I salute and congratulate everyone of you for the
1:58:13
boldness, the boldness, the boldness to make this decision.
1:58:19
Some of you are crying. Don't be ashamed of your tears.
1:58:22
The Bible says as many who will come to Him, He will in no wise
1:58:26
castaway. Let me request that you leave
1:58:28
for me your right hand, let it be high above your head, and
1:58:31
then say this after me as loud and as clear as you can.
1:58:34
Say this as loud as you can. Say Lord Jesus again, like you
1:58:38
understand what I said. Say Lord Jesus tonight I have
1:58:44
heard your word. I love you with all my heart.
1:58:50
I. Believe.
1:58:52
That you are the. Son of God, I believe that you
1:58:57
died for my sin. Right now I received Jesus.
1:59:02
Into my heart. As my Savior, my Lord, and my
1:59:08
King, I declare that the power of sin, Satan, hell.
1:59:16
And the. Grave.
1:59:18
Is broken. Over my life from tonight, I'm a
1:59:22
child of God. I.
1:59:24
Declare. That I go from glory to glory.
1:59:28
And grace to grace. Amen.
1:59:31
Keep your beautiful hands. I'm praying for you now, Father,
1:59:33
thank you for these ones. The Bible declares that as many
1:59:36
who will come to you, you will. In no wise castaway, these ones
1:59:40
have come declaring your lordship over their lives.
1:59:42
I pray that the grace that keeps, may that grace keep them
1:59:46
even to the very end. I call you the righteousness of
1:59:49
God in Christ Jesus and I impart grace upon you to live the
1:59:53
victorious Christian life in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen and
1:59:58
Amen. So all of you, please look to my
2:00:00
left. That will be your right from
2:00:02
where you're standing. There are counselors waving the
2:00:04
placard. Please do cooperate with them.
2:00:07
They have a gift pack for you. Please lift it up.
2:00:09
Let them see what it looks like. So everyone of you will receive
2:00:12
the gift pack that looks like this is with love from us.
2:00:15
Kalonia to you, on behalf of Jesus himself, you please make
2:00:20
sure you. Receive the gift.
2:00:22
They'll pray with you and then you'll be back to your seat.
2:00:24

I've got my mind made. Keep clapping.
2:00:30
