- 1:21Speaker 3: Jesus Mighty Name, we're praying or at Please tell your
- 1:26Speaker 3: bibles quickly to the Book of Matthew, chapter number sixteen.
- 1:34Speaker 3: Matthew chapter number sixteen, and I started reading from verse stirteen.
- 1:46Speaker 3: And I will also pay very important attention Matthew sixteen
- 1:48Speaker 3: from the Statin. When Jesus came into the coast of
- 1:53Speaker 3: Cecela Philippi. He acts this disciples, saying, whom men say
- 2:00Speaker 3: that I the son of Manham. And they said, some
- 2:08Speaker 3: say that thout at John the Baptist, some Elias, others
- 2:19Speaker 3: Jermy Mayers.
- 2:20Speaker 2: Or one of the prophets. Look at verse.
- 2:27Speaker 3: Nineteen. Now sorry, verse fifteen. He said, unto them, but
- 2:31Speaker 3: the womb say ye that I am. And Simon Peter
- 2:36Speaker 3: answered and said, thou art the Christ, the son.
- 2:42Speaker 2: Of the Living God.
- 2:45Speaker 3: And Jesus answered and said, unto him, blessed that thou
- 2:51Speaker 3: Simon by Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed
- 2:55Speaker 3: it onto thee, but my Father, which is in heaven.
- 3:01Speaker 3: The next verse, and I say onto the that nou
- 3:05Speaker 3: art Peter, And upon this rock I will build my church,
- 3:15Speaker 3: and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.
- 3:20Speaker 3: So don't suppose that a minute, so we can get
- 3:24Speaker 3: correct interpretations.
- 3:26Speaker 2: And I say, onto the you are Peter, that's your name.
- 3:32Speaker 3: But upon the rock of the Revelation of High as
- 3:36Speaker 3: the Christ, that's where the church is built. So the
- 3:42Speaker 3: reason why the first question is important or was important,
- 3:46Speaker 3: is because your revelation of Him as the Christ, or
- 3:51Speaker 3: whatever your relation of Him is, determines how you do ministry.
- 3:59Speaker 3: Let me say again, the revelation you have about the
- 4:04Speaker 3: Christ is what determines how you do ministry. So it
- 4:09Speaker 3: is important that ministries are built or established on the
- 4:15Speaker 3: correct revelation of Him as the Christ, but not just
- 4:19Speaker 3: the Christ, as also the Son of God. So we
- 4:23Speaker 3: understand that's where that's the take off point of church.
- 4:28Speaker 3: A true church is established on that revelation. And I'm
- 4:31Speaker 3: going to show you more. Look at what Paul said
- 4:35Speaker 3: in First Contents chapter number three. Let's read there to
- 4:39Speaker 3: your bibles there, First Corintience, chapter number three, if you're
- 4:44Speaker 3: there saying, man, So there was an argument, and Paul
- 4:54Speaker 3: did correct many things in the Corinthian Church. Let's start
- 5:02Speaker 3: from this.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Then.
- 5:03Speaker 3: Look at one of the things he said, According to
- 5:08Speaker 3: the grace of God which is given on to me
- 5:12Speaker 3: as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation,
- 5:17Speaker 3: and another builded their own. But let every man take it.
- 5:23Speaker 3: I will builded thereupon. What's the next person? Now, For
- 5:26Speaker 3: no other foundation can no man lay than that which
- 5:30Speaker 3: is laid, which is with Jesus Christ.
- 5:34Speaker 2: That's the foundation of correct ministry.
- 5:38Speaker 3: It is important that every ministry glorifies the Christ. A
- 5:44Speaker 3: ministry where Christ is not revealed is not doing a purpose.
- 5:52Speaker 3: And there's a reason why this is important, because the
- 5:56Speaker 3: goal of a minister of the Gospel story you Christ.
- 6:04Speaker 3: But pay attention to what Paul said, because we're going
- 6:06Speaker 3: to go back to Matthew sixteen. He said, as a
- 6:10Speaker 3: wise master builder have laid the foundation, another builds there.
- 6:15Speaker 3: So it means a wise builder. In other words, a
- 6:21Speaker 3: minister is one who knows that although we've been called
- 6:25Speaker 3: to build, but you can't build the body of Christ alone.
- 6:33Speaker 3: If we run the kind of ministry that doesn't recognize
- 6:38Speaker 3: another man as.
- 6:39Speaker 2: A co laborer, we're feeling.
- 6:45Speaker 3: It doesn't matter how I know that you are. It
- 6:48Speaker 3: doesn't matter how skill who you are. It doesn't matter
- 6:51Speaker 3: how wise you are, it doesn't matter how good you
- 6:55Speaker 3: are with the words. What you call ministry now is
- 6:58Speaker 3: what you continue from where a man stopped. When you stop,
- 7:02Speaker 3: somebody else will continue from them.
- 7:05Speaker 2: That humbles all of us.
- 7:10Speaker 3: It helps us to understand that we know him part
- 7:14Speaker 3: and we have been given privilege in time to do
- 7:18Speaker 3: our own part while our time is still existing. You
- 7:24Speaker 3: have to understand that he said, I, as a wise master,
- 7:28Speaker 3: will have laid the foundation.
- 7:30Speaker 2: This is as far as the grace.
- 7:32Speaker 3: Upon my life allows me to go the foundation. So
- 7:38Speaker 3: there is no ministry outside the boundary of grace that
- 7:42Speaker 3: has been a portion to you, the labor of a
- 7:47Speaker 3: fool warism. So correct label. Now, ministry is not a
- 7:52Speaker 3: product of assumption. It's a product of a calling. All right,
- 7:57Speaker 3: if you are not called to eat, no man takes
- 8:00Speaker 3: this honor upon himself.
- 8:03Speaker 2: Are you feel what I'm saying here? Good?
- 8:06Speaker 3: So irrecognized I've laid the foundation and said, no other
- 8:11Speaker 3: foundation can anyone lay?
- 8:13Speaker 2: The foundation is the Christ.
- 8:16Speaker 3: And that's what the ministry of Paul was about, taking
- 8:19Speaker 3: this time to explain the purpose and the mission of
- 8:24Speaker 3: the Christ. It took his time to his appetis to
- 8:30Speaker 3: explain his ministry and the reason why this is so important.
- 8:37Speaker 3: You see, the subject of Christology is not something that
- 8:40Speaker 3: is for crystal centric, and every believer ought to be
- 8:44Speaker 3: crystal centric. We have to understand that because the divides,
- 8:52Speaker 3: and let me tell you why there were divides. The
- 8:56Speaker 3: moment the devil can.
- 8:59Speaker 4: Or the moment.
- 8:59Speaker 3: That can be one or two people that misrepresent a
- 9:02Speaker 3: subject matter out of self righteousness. You will eat the
- 9:06Speaker 3: subject matter and the reality of it. Then they are divided.
- 9:11Speaker 3: So every believer is crystal centric. What does it mean
- 9:16Speaker 3: to be crystal centric? To be Christ centered? That's the
- 9:20Speaker 3: full come of our message, that's the reality of our message.
- 9:25Speaker 2: But you see, if you don't.
- 9:29Speaker 3: Understand that, that the entire Bible, from Genesis to Revelation,
- 9:35Speaker 3: speaks about one man Christ. You see that, and it
- 9:41Speaker 3: is important that the minister is grounded in that knowledge,
- 9:45Speaker 3: because that's why your ministry is no other foundation. Can
- 9:49Speaker 3: no man lay than that which is what laid, which
- 9:52Speaker 3: is who Christ Jesus. So that's why Jesus was asking
- 9:57Speaker 3: them that question. He was simply saying, I'm about to leave,
- 10:05Speaker 3: and you are the ones to take on this ministry
- 10:08Speaker 3: from here. But do you know the one you want
- 10:12Speaker 3: to represent?
- 10:13Speaker 2: Who am I?
- 10:15Speaker 3: Those who said you are a Lijah, they can do
- 10:19Speaker 3: ministry in a vindictive way with the spirit of Elijah.
- 10:24Speaker 3: True Ah Bob said, you are join the Baptist They
- 10:35Speaker 3: can do ministry in a way that begin to leave
- 10:38Speaker 3: the one that has been a portion to them and
- 10:40Speaker 3: getting into what they are not sent. John the Baptist
- 10:45Speaker 3: was sent to prepare the way for the Messia, not
- 10:47Speaker 3: to get into marriage ministry. Your interpretation of who the
- 10:55Speaker 3: Christ is determines how you go about the ministry. If
- 10:59Speaker 3: you passive as the soul of God is full of
- 11:01Speaker 3: love and grace and glory, you will be gracious in
- 11:06Speaker 3: the way you do ministry. If you'll perceive Christ as
- 11:11Speaker 3: the one with the herald that wants to break your head.
- 11:15Speaker 3: All right, if your words have not broken people and
- 11:18Speaker 3: turned them apart, you know feel you have done ministry.
- 11:22Speaker 2: So at the end of the day, the way the.
- 11:24Speaker 3: Christ is revealed to you is interpreted will show in
- 11:28Speaker 3: the way you gray about ministry, and particularly in this
- 11:32Speaker 3: part of the world.
- 11:34Speaker 2: Where if something is not painful, it is not spiritual.
- 11:42Speaker 2: Permit me amen.
- 11:46Speaker 3: Oftentimes it boils down to our revelation of who the Christ.
- 11:52Speaker 2: Do you understand that.
- 11:58Speaker 3: The spirit that is in you is not the spirit
- 12:03Speaker 3: of Elijah, is the spirit of Decries, the one that
- 12:09Speaker 3: was made equal with God, and he didn't take the
- 12:12Speaker 3: honor upon himself, He humbled himself to die the death
- 12:15Speaker 3: on the cross. That's the spirit that is in us.
- 12:20Speaker 3: And that is who needs to be revealed, not just
- 12:24Speaker 3: in our message, but in our lifestyle. Now let's go
- 12:30Speaker 3: back to match you sixteen and I want to show
- 12:35Speaker 3: you a few things.
- 12:36Speaker 2: This is one message.
- 12:39Speaker 3: That by the time I'm done, you will know that
- 12:43Speaker 3: at least every year you need to listen to this again.
- 12:47Speaker 3: So stay with me. Is that okay, fellow neighbors, stall
- 12:50Speaker 3: with me. I didn't say deal with me. I said
- 12:56Speaker 3: stay with me.
- 12:58Speaker 2: That's it, Jesus, listen.
- 13:04Speaker 3: Look at it. Matthew, chapter number sixteen. I want to
- 13:08Speaker 3: show you a few things. There, are you ready say
- 13:14Speaker 3: loud and claar, I love the world of God. Now,
- 13:17Speaker 3: if you understand that our ministry is to reveal Christ,
- 13:22Speaker 3: you willn't mock any ministry because they are ward based.
- 13:28Speaker 4: The reason why we mock.
- 13:30Speaker 3: Ourselves in ministry is just one thing, pride superiority complex.
- 13:38Speaker 3: Paul acknowledged that my duty is to do this one
- 13:43Speaker 3: I know that will come. And God doesn't have to
- 13:47Speaker 3: take permission from me before you annoy that.
- 13:49Speaker 2: Another. Wherever is not against us is part of us.
- 13:56Speaker 2: Do you understand that?
- 13:58Speaker 3: So in Matthew sixteen eighteen, now he said, I say
- 14:03Speaker 3: onto the Peter and upon this rock, I will build
- 14:07Speaker 3: my word church.
- 14:11Speaker 2: What's the next statement, And the gates not gets.
- 14:23Speaker 3: Hell, as gets of Hell shall not prevail against it.
- 14:31Speaker 3: And what that means is that the church that Jesus
- 14:34Speaker 3: builds is the church that prevails.
- 14:40Speaker 2: Against the gates of Hell. Say amen to that.
- 14:48Speaker 3: So it's the church, it's it's the Church of Jesus
- 14:51Speaker 3: is the prevailing church. So in essence, the team of
- 14:55Speaker 3: this conference is the Church of Jesus, because if it
- 14:59Speaker 3: is bul.
- 15:00Speaker 2: By him, then gate over Hell cannot prevail.
- 15:05Speaker 3: Now, sometimes we read this text and we might feel
- 15:10Speaker 3: we have full grasp of what he's saying. But I
- 15:15Speaker 3: want to maybe bring a just small light to add
- 15:18Speaker 3: to what you know. Are you ready? Now, let's pay
- 15:21Speaker 3: attention to the words that are there. He said, I
- 15:26Speaker 3: will build my church. So what that means is that
- 15:32Speaker 3: the primary understanding of one who is in ministry is
- 15:37Speaker 3: that it is not your church. It is his church.
- 15:43Speaker 3: Number two. Itbutes it, meaning that it gives the directives.
- 15:51Speaker 3: Any strategy that there's not a product of divine leading
- 15:55Speaker 3: will not end well. It gives the directives, say Lord
- 16:02Speaker 3: and Claire, I'm not the owner of the church. Do
- 16:05Speaker 3: you know it is deadly to assume yourself as the
- 16:09Speaker 3: owner of the church. And I'll tell you why, because
- 16:12Speaker 3: whoever can take responsibility for the Church must have paid
- 16:16Speaker 3: the price of his blood. That blood, the blood of
- 16:23Speaker 3: the sinless Son of God, is the blood that is
- 16:27Speaker 3: shed on the cross to redeem as from every tongue
- 16:30Speaker 3: every nation, every king dread to himself Revelations five.
- 16:35Speaker 2: Every tongue, every nation, every kingdread.
- 16:39Speaker 4: He shed that blood.
- 16:40Speaker 2: Freely and bought us to himself.
- 16:44Speaker 3: He redeemed us with a price. So now we don't
- 16:49Speaker 3: belong to ourselves. We belong to Him and galicians to
- 16:55Speaker 3: Verse twenty. I'm crucified with Christ. Nevertheless, I leave yet
- 16:58Speaker 3: not I but life that I live now, I live
- 17:01Speaker 3: by the faith of the son of God who gave
- 17:02Speaker 3: himself for me. Say they're gonna have been crucified with Christ.
- 17:07Speaker 3: Say they're gonna have been crucified with Christ. He owns me.
- 17:12Speaker 3: I don't belong to myself. Say again, I don't belong
- 17:15Speaker 3: to myself. Christ owns me. I belong to him. Glory
- 17:20Speaker 3: to God. Now, what's the next thing is said there,
- 17:25Speaker 3: I will build my church and the gates of hell
- 17:31Speaker 3: will not prevail against it. Now do you know that
- 17:36Speaker 3: your interpretation of this text is I will build my
- 17:40Speaker 3: church and er will not prevail against the gates of
- 17:44Speaker 3: the church. That's been your interpretation. LL can't come close.
- 17:54Speaker 3: We are the ones at their gate, not Hell at our.
- 18:05Speaker 2: Let me say it again.
- 18:08Speaker 3: We are the ones who have taken the battle to
- 18:11Speaker 3: their gate. And I need to say this, and I'm
- 18:19Speaker 3: going to show you scripturally, the gate of Hell cannot
- 18:24Speaker 3: bring the battle to the gate of the church. M hm,
- 18:30Speaker 3: except that the gate of health and those who are
- 18:34Speaker 3: in the church to fight the church.
- 18:43Speaker 2: What else?
- 18:44Speaker 3: In respect to battlefield, the gate is the place of
- 18:51Speaker 3: the highest level of reinforcement. The gate is the place
- 18:57Speaker 3: with the highest level of fortification. The gate is the
- 19:02Speaker 3: strength of the city. The gate is the highest level
- 19:07Speaker 3: of defense. That's the deference center. So I will build
- 19:14Speaker 3: my church and the gates of it. I've shown you
- 19:19Speaker 3: before that the blessing of Abraham has a lot of
- 19:24Speaker 3: connection with gates. Your seat shall possess the gates of
- 19:32Speaker 3: the enemies. When Reybeaker was being blessed by her parents,
- 19:39Speaker 3: that was the blessing that was placed on her, and
- 19:41Speaker 3: that was the blessing on Isaac.
- 19:43Speaker 2: That was covenant link in that blessing. Pay attention to
- 19:47Speaker 2: that now.
- 19:48Speaker 3: So there is the blessing of the gates, and the
- 19:51Speaker 3: blessing of the gates is the blessing of possessing the gate.
- 19:55Speaker 2: Listen the devil in.
- 19:59Speaker 3: Himself as wilds and strategies, But the principal strategy of
- 20:08Speaker 3: the devil is to look at what God is doing
- 20:10Speaker 3: and counterfeited.
- 20:14Speaker 2: I'll show you.
- 20:20Speaker 3: When Naboats refused to give his viney head to a
- 20:30Speaker 3: the king, baby said, he went to his house and
- 20:32Speaker 3: he was kind. He refused to eat over another person's land. Realested, hey, man, Slane,
- 20:41Speaker 3: grabbers have existed since realested you abscrime. And Jaziebel said,
- 20:52Speaker 3: why are you crying? He said, I want this field
- 20:56Speaker 3: and nable to not sell it. Jazebel said, come on,
- 20:58Speaker 3: prepare yourself. I came, man, you are the king, go
- 21:01Speaker 3: and eat. I will and do it. She wrote a
- 21:04Speaker 3: letter and send it awhere to the gates. They held
- 21:09Speaker 3: us at the gate and said, now both has blasphemed
- 21:14Speaker 3: the name of the Lord, and the Bible said. They
- 21:17Speaker 3: gathered the sons of Billia and the gates the hold
- 21:20Speaker 3: to be the place of defense became the place of destruction.
- 21:25Speaker 2: Where someone was killed on Joseph.
- 21:30Speaker 3: So the devil understands that that if something is going
- 21:33Speaker 3: to be powerful in the hand of the Lord, let
- 21:36Speaker 3: me go for it and use that same thing to
- 21:39Speaker 3: fight the agenda of God. If God looks like he's
- 21:43Speaker 3: going to use a child, let me turn him around
- 21:46Speaker 3: and make that child hate that God.
- 21:48Speaker 2: And I want to begin earlier. Let me show you
- 21:53Speaker 2: a scripture.
- 21:54Speaker 3: Turn our bibles there, Ephicients, chapter number six, the Book
- 22:03Speaker 3: of Ephicians, chapter number six. If you're there, saymen, if
- 22:12Speaker 3: you don't know where it is, then you join foundation class.
- 22:23Speaker 3: Let's start reading from verse twelve efficient six. From verse twelve.
- 22:28Speaker 3: If you're there, say man, look at this for wer
- 22:34Speaker 3: rest you not against flesh and blood, but against what
- 22:39Speaker 3: principalities uhhh, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness
- 22:45Speaker 3: of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore
- 22:51Speaker 3: take on to you the old arm of God, that
- 22:54Speaker 3: you may be able to withstand in the evil day.
- 22:57Speaker 3: Having done all to stand, let's jump try. Let's go
- 23:03Speaker 3: to verse ten and eleven just a moment, verse ten
- 23:06Speaker 3: and eleven, and project that. Let's read it together, one
- 23:10Speaker 3: to trell you go. Finally, my brethren, be strong in
- 23:14Speaker 3: the Lord and in the power of his mind.
- 23:17Speaker 2: Two.
- 23:18Speaker 4: Now put on.
- 23:19Speaker 3: The whole armor of God, that you may be able
- 23:22Speaker 3: to stand against the wiles of the devil. Let's read
- 23:26Speaker 3: this verse eleven in message translation Ephesian sixty eleven message.
- 23:32Speaker 3: So take everything the masters set out for you, well
- 23:35Speaker 3: made weapons of the best materials, and put them to use,
- 23:39Speaker 3: so you'll be able to stand up to everything the
- 23:43Speaker 3: devil throws your way.
- 23:45Speaker 2: Let's red amplify translation.
- 23:47Speaker 3: Then with passion tipity, now look at this, put on
- 23:51Speaker 3: the full arm of God, for his precept are like
- 23:54Speaker 3: the splendid armor of a every armed soldier, so that
- 23:58Speaker 3: you may be able to successfully stand up against all
- 24:02Speaker 3: the schemes and strategies and the deceit. Now look at
- 24:07Speaker 3: what we're up against. What are we up against? Schemes,
- 24:11Speaker 3: h strategies and what.
- 24:14Speaker 2: Hold on a minute. If you are dealing with somebody who.
- 24:22Speaker 3: Has schemes, who can scheme, who is conning, somebody who
- 24:28Speaker 3: has the ability to deceive, there are very few ways
- 24:32Speaker 3: to escape such people. Number one, don't even give them
- 24:36Speaker 3: your attention in the first place. Number two, don't assume
- 24:41Speaker 3: you can't be deceived. Do you understand what I'm saying.
- 24:49Speaker 3: I've been scammed before. Okay, I've told you, and scams
- 24:55Speaker 3: will never be possible except it looks real. I told
- 25:02Speaker 3: you I thought I got someone born again. I didn't know.
- 25:15Speaker 3: So tomorrow I don't want this stand. She called me
- 25:26Speaker 3: and said, Pastor, and there is this guy is sending
- 25:32Speaker 3: our goods from America.
- 25:36Speaker 2: When you America, your yes said so.
- 25:39Speaker 3: While they were packaging the goods, the wallet fell inside,
- 25:43Speaker 3: and the wallet contained about twenty five thousand dollars.
- 25:47Speaker 2: I said what he said.
- 25:51Speaker 3: So they stopped the goods at the airport, and they
- 25:55Speaker 3: wanted somebody to come and you know, clear and pay.
- 25:59Speaker 3: I said that much. She mentioned that my side.
- 26:01Speaker 2: Don't have now said that.
- 26:06Speaker 3: Actually, if you can help get the thing out. The
- 26:09Speaker 3: guy said he was going to forfeit ten thousand dollars
- 26:13Speaker 3: a car motor fairly att. I sat down years ago,
- 26:24Speaker 3: and I imagine what ten thousand dollars will do. I said,
- 26:30Speaker 3: you know, your dreams can be bigger than your exposure.
- 26:35Speaker 3: I said, once I get that money, I'll break these
- 26:40Speaker 3: two shops together. They'll be bubbing somewhere people are watching ball.
- 26:47Speaker 3: Somewhere there's a long people can see down. Boys and
- 26:51Speaker 3: girls taking ice cream. Yeah, the shop I wanted to
- 26:55Speaker 3: break together. Whenever I pass it from that place, I pass.
- 26:59Speaker 2: So I'm coming, I'm coming. That's that's my place. I'm coming.
- 27:08Speaker 3: People didn't know why I just became suddenly confident. Yeah,
- 27:14Speaker 3: that's why your faith.
- 27:15Speaker 4: You're being good.
- 27:16Speaker 2: You can have faith in something else. Amen.
- 27:19Speaker 3: So I did have the money. I went to college,
- 27:22Speaker 3: Sister George. I said, we're about to be rich. Give
- 27:28Speaker 3: me some money I don't have. But what is on
- 27:34Speaker 3: ground is my schoofies. I said, scoofees bring it. I said,
- 27:40Speaker 3: we're about to be rich. So I said, I'm out
- 27:44Speaker 3: to scoofees o Sea. I also have this money out
- 27:49Speaker 3: to put in one business and bring it. So I
- 27:53Speaker 3: put the money. I sent it to them, and then
- 27:58Speaker 3: they asked for a other money, and I was looking
- 28:01Speaker 3: for who to borrow meg. The one day they called
- 28:05Speaker 3: me and they didn't know they had called me, And
- 28:07Speaker 3: I was hearing the girl has been speaking of America
- 28:09Speaker 3: intlst speaking pigeon. The guy was speaking confirmed or repigeing
- 28:16Speaker 3: say after that guy say chopping, chopping money say yeah, yeah,
- 28:27Speaker 3: and that's how I knew I had been scammed. Every
- 28:32Speaker 3: form of deception looks real. It is not the realness
- 28:40Speaker 3: you check for. It's the sauce. Don't be deceived. It's
- 28:46Speaker 3: the sauce.
- 28:49Speaker 2: Pay attention. Put on the whole arm of God that
- 28:58Speaker 2: you may be able to and against what the strategies. Now,
- 29:04Speaker 2: let's look at this.
- 29:05Speaker 3: Let's look at that same scripture from Passion translation.
- 29:16Speaker 2: Look at this.
- 29:18Speaker 3: Put on God's complete set of armor provided for us,
- 29:27Speaker 3: so that you'll be protected so as you fight against
- 29:32Speaker 3: the evil strategies of the accuser. Do you know that
- 29:38Speaker 3: if you if you're not a student of the Bible,
- 29:41Speaker 3: what was the listed as the armor of God is
- 29:43Speaker 3: not what you think you'll be an armor. Let's let's
- 29:47Speaker 3: read for them. Let's go back to King James. Now
- 29:50Speaker 3: look at it. If you're there, say man, h, let's
- 30:01Speaker 3: go to verse stettin. Now efficient six verse Stettin, wherefore
- 30:05Speaker 3: ta come to you the whole harm of God, that
- 30:07Speaker 3: you may be able to what we stand in the
- 30:11Speaker 3: evil day and having done all.
- 30:13Speaker 2: To what let me let me just say this to.
- 30:16Speaker 3: You, you will have a lot of we're standing to do. Ah,
- 30:23Speaker 3: you know it is very easy to start in the
- 30:26Speaker 3: ministry earlier and point fingers. Every vanity in your life
- 30:30Speaker 3: will be tested. You will have it a lot of
- 30:34Speaker 3: we're standing to do in the days of discouragement. You
- 30:39Speaker 3: can win the battle against lust and now win the
- 30:42Speaker 3: battle of humility.
- 30:48Speaker 2: You can be so humble and be proud about it.
- 30:52Speaker 3: Yeah, the devil wait for people at different junctions. You
- 31:03Speaker 3: see for some of you when you start the new year,
- 31:08Speaker 3: your outlook is it's going to be an amazing year
- 31:11Speaker 3: I'm going to have. For some of us, I'm saying, God,
- 31:19Speaker 3: we can't tell the landmines that has been planted in
- 31:21Speaker 3: this year that will have to survive. The accusations. You
- 31:29Speaker 3: will have to withstand, the hatred you'll have to withstand.
- 31:36Speaker 3: Do you understand I'm saying the discouragement It is not
- 31:42Speaker 3: always true that you have to do something wrong for
- 31:45Speaker 3: something to go work. You see the culture of thinking
- 31:57Speaker 3: who has seened because somebody something is going wrong? Once
- 32:02Speaker 3: that's your judgment of people. When things go south in
- 32:07Speaker 3: your righteousness, things will go south that you ask yourself,
- 32:10Speaker 3: what have I done? You know it is easy to
- 32:15Speaker 3: point fingers till you survive what people have survived all
- 32:19Speaker 3: of it. Sudden your message will now come with grace.
- 32:26Speaker 3: You preach about overcoming immorality because you've not seen your
- 32:32Speaker 3: own spec the people that are coming at you. You
- 32:44Speaker 3: don't need strength to win. You don't like the person.
- 32:55Speaker 3: I share the story, the story of jim Becktim Baker,
- 33:00Speaker 3: Jim Baker and Jimmy's Swaggart, very humbling story. The night
- 33:08Speaker 3: I sat on the story, I waved my eyes out
- 33:15Speaker 3: because I watched the interview where they were asking Jimmy
- 33:20Speaker 3: Swaggart about Tim Baker that had fallen.
- 33:25Speaker 2: And now imprisoned.
- 33:31Speaker 3: And I look at the boldness with which Jimmy Swaggart
- 33:34Speaker 3: was speaking. If this that that that we admitting back
- 33:38Speaker 3: to the body of Christ, the man was in prison.
- 33:50Speaker 3: And you see over the years news media don't have
- 33:52Speaker 3: the church get together, the scatter things.
- 33:56Speaker 2: So after I while Jimmy Schwagert himself.
- 34:05Speaker 3: Was found in an act, now tracing the timeline of
- 34:12Speaker 3: that act, it was obvious that he had been in
- 34:15Speaker 3: it before this man was caught. See, you can be
- 34:25Speaker 3: feeling and accusing the one that has been caught.
- 34:32Speaker 4: I am.
- 34:32Speaker 2: I am telling you this tonight to please tread carefully
- 34:41Speaker 2: the journey is far.
- 34:43Speaker 3: You are bareing the middle of the road to speak
- 34:45Speaker 3: with the arrogant who are speaking with?
- 34:51Speaker 2: And years later.
- 34:54Speaker 3: It'll be Jimmy Swagger standing on the older and weeping
- 34:59Speaker 3: and begging forgiveness. Jim Baker was sentenced to prison. I
- 35:07Speaker 3: can't remember how many years, maybe forty years or thereabout.
- 35:11Speaker 3: And his son said he wrote letters to different leaders
- 35:18Speaker 3: of the church. I don't have to mention names, and
- 35:20Speaker 3: none responded. If you want to understand life, there's a
- 35:26Speaker 3: book I can recommend. Because when things are nice, you
- 35:31Speaker 3: have crowd. In the days of storm, you know what
- 35:34Speaker 3: a cycle looks like. Nobody responded. Nobody wants to identify.
- 35:42Speaker 2: With a failure.
- 35:44Speaker 3: And that's why your definition of relationship must be deeper
- 35:48Speaker 3: than perfection. When the chieps are down, who are those
- 35:54Speaker 3: who can hold you by the hand, as if we
- 35:56Speaker 3: will not let go? What we think of what quickly
- 36:00Speaker 3: in the body of Christ is replacement? And you too,
- 36:08Speaker 3: if you have someone around you that okay, this fellow
- 36:11Speaker 3: has done this, can you stand by the person? So
- 36:21Speaker 3: the only person who replied this letter was Jimmy Swagger,
- 36:27Speaker 3: and he used the connection he had to write to
- 36:31Speaker 3: some of the top attorneys, and they were able to
- 36:35Speaker 3: review the case and light in the prison sentence. So
- 36:38Speaker 3: I think about after, but I'm not too sure. After
- 36:40Speaker 3: about five years he was out. These were the top
- 36:45Speaker 3: leading guys in the move of God in America. People
- 36:50Speaker 3: didn't know the story till Jimmy'swaggart died. Then then Baker's
- 36:57Speaker 3: son now came out and said it was him who
- 37:00Speaker 3: road for him. Why was he able to stand in
- 37:02Speaker 3: for the father because he had obtained grace. Also, the
- 37:11Speaker 3: climate of the Body of Christ for now is not
- 37:14Speaker 3: favorable to a wounded soldier, not because of what the
- 37:21Speaker 3: devil will do, but because of what the Church herself,
- 37:25Speaker 3: without the impute of the devil a monsters will do.
- 37:31Speaker 3: The devil believes, if I can't come to your gate,
- 37:34Speaker 3: I will use you to fight yourselves at the gate.
- 37:44Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Okay.
- 37:53Speaker 3: I want to show you something still that sevelefficients chapter
- 37:57Speaker 3: number six. And let me beg you, even as we
- 38:06Speaker 3: study tonight and as we joiney in this meeting, in
- 38:13Speaker 3: your journey, in the ministry and in life, I beg
- 38:16Speaker 3: you obtain grace. Let us therefore come boldly before the
- 38:24Speaker 3: throne of grace that woman obtain messy and find grace
- 38:28Speaker 3: to help in times of need. In Verse fifteen says,
- 38:34Speaker 3: for we have not an eye priest who cannot be
- 38:36Speaker 3: touched with the feelings of our informities, seeing that it
- 38:38Speaker 3: was an all point tempted like as we are, and
- 38:41Speaker 3: yet without saying, live your hand, say Lord, I obtained grace.
- 38:49Speaker 2: You didn't say like one will.
- 38:54Speaker 3: Say it again, Lord, I obtain guys it, then extend it.
- 39:07Speaker 3: If you have been forgiving much, forgive much if you
- 39:15Speaker 3: ever find your saving a situation where you find out
- 39:18Speaker 3: what the believer is doing wrongly. The knowledge came for prayer,
- 39:24Speaker 3: for intercession. You know what I found out about the
- 39:30Speaker 3: body of Christ. Permit me to say this, and I'm
- 39:36Speaker 3: speaking generally. You know intercessions don't and can't criticize.
- 39:55Speaker 4: U.
- 39:55Speaker 3: There's a parable with match of twenty five of the
- 40:00Speaker 3: ten virgins. You know the parable?
- 40:03Speaker 2: Hope.
- 40:03Speaker 3: You know it was not a real story. Are you're
- 40:04Speaker 3: aware there was any illustration? Scary enough, there were parables.
- 40:12Speaker 3: Jesus took time to explain. There were some he left
- 40:14Speaker 3: us to figure out. Then we're wise, Then we're foolish.
- 40:22Speaker 3: We like to believe we are the wise ones, the
- 40:28Speaker 3: foolish ones who didn't make it. Why because they were
- 40:32Speaker 3: torn away by the wise. And when he came, he
- 40:37Speaker 3: didn't ask about the oil he met. It took those
- 40:40Speaker 3: he met. The qualification for journing with the groom was
- 40:50Speaker 3: never about what you have, but all about him. So
- 41:00Speaker 3: we will have more casualties because the church turn't people away.
- 41:06Speaker 2: Stell me. Look at what Jesus said and what Paul said.
- 41:21Speaker 3: As he began to explain the animal, he said the
- 41:25Speaker 3: wherefore Verse fourteen I says, stand having your loins great
- 41:30Speaker 3: about with what truth?
- 41:35Speaker 2: Truth? Not fact? Truth?
- 41:38Speaker 3: Know the truth of God's word is a defense. Be
- 41:43Speaker 3: armed with the truth, Sit with the word, be taught.
- 41:50Speaker 3: When the world of God dwells in you richly, your
- 41:53Speaker 3: spirit becomes enhanced. That spirit can bear you in the
- 41:58Speaker 3: days of informities. Let me give you an instance, just
- 42:04Speaker 3: something to illustrate and show you the shape of your
- 42:07Speaker 3: spirit and the quality.
- 42:08Speaker 2: Of what's going on there.
- 42:10Speaker 3: If someone has fears and you've been exposed to certain
- 42:16Speaker 3: medical facts, maybe certain kind of cancer, it is possible
- 42:21Speaker 3: when you're expos has that fear.
- 42:24Speaker 4: That's fact.
- 42:26Speaker 3: Every someone has fear. Maybe let's say a woman as
- 42:33Speaker 3: fears of beast cancer, and they said, you know, usually
- 42:39Speaker 3: it's possible after menopause. It's delayed menopause over exposure to estrogen.
- 42:45Speaker 3: All those medical dragons, thank God for them. If a
- 42:51Speaker 3: woman keeps that in the hearth, in the mind, if
- 42:54Speaker 3: the fellow ever feels any lump in the past, it
- 42:58Speaker 3: will reveal what you believe. So we don't know how
- 43:04Speaker 3: weak or sophisticated the money is. By the way shout
- 43:08Speaker 3: a lawyer, or the way he dresses in church, or
- 43:12Speaker 3: even the way he preaches. We can't tell till he's
- 43:16Speaker 3: exposed to oppositions. Then whatever comes out of him. That's
- 43:21Speaker 3: what has always been there. Follish yourself with the truth.
- 43:30Speaker 3: So binging on content, it's not a sign of hunger.
- 43:34Speaker 3: It's mismanagement of self. Was binging there and the binging.
- 43:41Speaker 3: Once you know who you are and where you're going,
- 43:43Speaker 3: how are you listening to messages that are conflicting? You
- 43:48Speaker 3: are the one that is confused. That's why that's why
- 43:51Speaker 3: you're not walking in what is shue walking? I told
- 43:57Speaker 3: you everything. God bless the beginning has never struggled with
- 44:02Speaker 3: a blessing except man, because he's the only one who
- 44:07Speaker 3: has the ability to yield the wise, get your loans,
- 44:12Speaker 3: grid about with the truth, having on the breastplate of
- 44:17Speaker 3: what righteousness? You know, we say these things like, I'm
- 44:23Speaker 3: the righteousness of God and Christ Jesus. Say it again, Come.
- 44:27Speaker 4: On, say it, say it again. Oh, I'm a righteous.
- 44:38Speaker 2: You know when we say those things, I'm righteous? What
- 44:41Speaker 2: is Nadia? Christian is hearing? Is im right? It believes
- 44:45Speaker 2: that it's righteousness because he's right. I'm better than you.
- 44:50Speaker 2: I'm right. I'm doing what you're not doing. Do you
- 44:55Speaker 2: know why?
- 44:55Speaker 3: First, do you know what I pray? Look at what
- 45:00Speaker 3: the Bible says, Second Core interns five. Let's start reading
- 45:04Speaker 3: for verse seventeen for the sake of time. Second Core
- 45:09Speaker 3: Interns five. Therefore, if reny man, being Christ a new creature,
- 45:12Speaker 3: all things have passed away, build all things are what
- 45:16Speaker 3: become new, and all things that of God has reconciled
- 45:19Speaker 3: us to himself by Jesus Christ, and as given to
- 45:22Speaker 3: us the ministry of reconcilation. To it that God was
- 45:25Speaker 3: in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their
- 45:29Speaker 3: trespasses onto them, and has committed on to us the
- 45:32Speaker 3: world of what reconciliation. Now then we're ambassadors for Christ.
- 45:39Speaker 3: As though God did beseech you by us, we pray
- 45:42Speaker 3: you in Christ, that be reconciled to God, for He
- 45:45Speaker 3: had made him to be seen for us wound, you know,
- 45:48Speaker 3: seein that we might be made the righteousness of God
- 45:52Speaker 3: in Him, that we might be made who were made.
- 45:57Speaker 3: I assure you that typology of righte justness was what
- 46:01Speaker 3: Rebecca the drama A baker played, let me have your
- 46:04Speaker 3: suit now, yeah, thank you. And when Jacob was going,
- 46:12Speaker 3: is there someone welcome? So Jacob was going to appear
- 46:20Speaker 3: before Isaac. Isaac at determined, I want to give the
- 46:27Speaker 3: blessing to isl But Jacob didn't look anything like isa
- 46:32Speaker 3: So Rebeker killed a ram and skinned it and put
- 46:39Speaker 3: it on him. So he can now come.
- 46:46Speaker 2: Fit you.
- 46:48Speaker 4: Yeah, hm, I.
- 46:52Speaker 2: Feel people like this. Everything fit them. So he can
- 46:56Speaker 2: now come.
- 46:58Speaker 3: Before Isaac with boldness, not for we for what he
- 47:05Speaker 3: has put on. This is the way we come boldly
- 47:11Speaker 3: before the truth to obtain. Isaac touched him and said,
- 47:20Speaker 3: this is the flesh of Issu. But the voice of
- 47:24Speaker 3: Jacob what did he call the flesh of issos?
- 47:29Speaker 2: What he wore? What did he wear? What died.
- 47:34Speaker 3: Because we are put on Christ, we can't come boldly.
- 47:41Speaker 3: It is the person of family Lazarus. It is the
- 47:45Speaker 3: voice of Familylazaros. But the Father recognized the person of Christ.
- 47:55Speaker 3: He took my place, so I can take his place.
- 48:00Speaker 3: This righteousness the reason why listen though, listen. You need
- 48:09Speaker 3: to understand this. Your life depends on it. I'll show
- 48:11Speaker 3: your scriptore that shows that SAMs eleven, verse two. Look
- 48:15Speaker 3: at this, and this is very important for ministers. Pay
- 48:20Speaker 3: attention some eleven verse two. Look and we really to
- 48:23Speaker 3: get I want to three to go for low. The
- 48:25Speaker 3: wicked burn their bow. They make ready their arrow upon
- 48:30Speaker 3: the string that they may privilege shoot at you.
- 48:33Speaker 2: Upright, where is the what is the target of the wicked?
- 48:37Speaker 3: That the moment you believe that the reason why the
- 48:42Speaker 3: enemy can't attack you is because of what you are
- 48:45Speaker 3: doing right, It's not what Christ did.
- 48:49Speaker 2: You are just one step away from being finished.
- 48:55Speaker 3: It may sound Nigerian, it may look like what you
- 48:57Speaker 3: have fund people brag about.
- 48:58Speaker 2: What I'm telling you. It is is key.
- 49:01Speaker 3: When you understand righteousness, it cuts you out. I am
- 49:11Speaker 3: thank God for the grace to pray and fast. But
- 49:15Speaker 3: first and foremost I am who I am because of Christ.
- 49:20Speaker 3: I would rather the name of the Lord is strong
- 49:22Speaker 3: toward the righteous wrong, and they are safe. Look at
- 49:27Speaker 3: Sam's night, want that duel it in the secret place
- 49:30Speaker 3: of the Most I shall abide under the shadow of
- 49:32Speaker 3: the old night.
- 49:33Speaker 2: I'd rather take refuge, won't than take refuge not my works?
- 49:41Speaker 2: Do you understand that? Now look at this.
- 49:46Speaker 3: Let's continue that efficient seeks. Have your lawin screwed about?
- 49:54Speaker 3: What the truth having on the breast place of Say
- 49:57Speaker 3: it again, I'm the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus
- 50:03Speaker 3: verse fifteen, and your feet shot with the preparation of
- 50:09Speaker 3: the Gospel of peace. Now I decided I want to
- 50:14Speaker 3: talk about this. One of the ways the church advance
- 50:19Speaker 3: is true. The Gospel, the number one passion of the
- 50:25Speaker 3: only Spirit is the Gospel. That's the more one passion.
- 50:30Speaker 3: The souls will be saved. And look chapter number ten.
- 50:34Speaker 3: Let's start reading from verse two. Look ten from verse two.
- 50:40Speaker 3: Look at this therefore said onto them the adverse is
- 50:43Speaker 3: truly great, but the laborers a few pray. Therefore the
- 50:48Speaker 3: Lord of the adverse look at this, that they will
- 50:52Speaker 3: send forth laborers into the adverss.
- 50:56Speaker 2: Who is the Lord of the aves.
- 50:59Speaker 3: Jesus is the seed that was planted for many sons
- 51:03Speaker 3: to rise to glory.
- 51:05Speaker 2: The lord of the harvests, therefore.
- 51:06Speaker 3: Explained, the one who will reap all that Christ has
- 51:10Speaker 3: sown and present them before the Christ will now present
- 51:15Speaker 3: them before his father.
- 51:18Speaker 2: So the only goes the focus of the only.
- 51:21Speaker 3: Goes down is that the death and the resurrection of
- 51:25Speaker 3: Jesus will not been read. That more men are commissioned,
- 51:29Speaker 3: more men here the gospel, more men. But do you
- 51:35Speaker 3: know that in the same light the devil is also
- 51:41Speaker 3: so tricky that this powerful message. You know what the
- 51:45Speaker 3: gospel is. The gospel is the good news.
- 51:55Speaker 2: It's the message of the death, the barrier and the
- 52:02Speaker 2: resurrection of Jesus.
- 52:03Speaker 3: Look at what Paul said second quarrinterns, I want to
- 52:11Speaker 3: show you something, something really critical.
- 52:14Speaker 2: As I begin to wrap up, are you learning something? Okay?
- 52:26Speaker 2: Stay with me?
- 52:27Speaker 3: Okay, good fress corian Terns fifteen, Thank you, fresh, cor
- 52:37Speaker 3: in Terns fifteen. Listen, this junction is a very critical
- 52:48Speaker 3: one and it ends with a warning. Then we're going
- 52:52Speaker 3: to pray. Look at this moreover, redren I declare on
- 53:01Speaker 3: to you what the gospel which I preached onto you,
- 53:07Speaker 3: which also you have received and wearin you what stand.
- 53:12Speaker 3: So if we're going to build people that will stand,
- 53:15Speaker 3: what are they built upon the gospel? How can someone
- 53:20Speaker 3: be in charged for ten years, two years, five years
- 53:22Speaker 3: and doesn't know what the gospel is? It has to
- 53:28Speaker 3: be taught. It can be assumed. Look at verse two,
- 53:37Speaker 3: by which also year what saved. So salvation is when
- 53:41Speaker 3: people hear what the gospel? If you keep in memory
- 53:46Speaker 3: what I preached onto you, unless you have believed in rain,
- 53:50Speaker 3: For I delivered on to you first of all that
- 53:54Speaker 3: which I also received. How that Christ died for since
- 53:58Speaker 3: according to this, and that it was buried, and that
- 54:02Speaker 3: they rose again on the third day according to the scriptures,
- 54:06Speaker 3: and that there was seen of Serphas, then of the twelve.
- 54:09Speaker 3: After that he was seen of about five hundred bredren
- 54:12Speaker 3: at once, of whom the greater part remained unto this
- 54:15Speaker 3: present or summer falling asleep.
- 54:19Speaker 2: After that it was seen.
- 54:20Speaker 3: Now began to mention proofs. Jesus didn't friend. He died,
- 54:29Speaker 3: and he descended to the lower part of the earth.
- 54:33Speaker 3: He said, the captives free. It made public ridicule and
- 54:37Speaker 3: open shame of the devil. I've told you. The Jews
- 54:42Speaker 3: don't believe that the person is truly dead until after
- 54:46Speaker 3: three days. They believe, according to their custom, that's when
- 54:49Speaker 3: the soul is separated. So Jesus didn't stay on there
- 54:56Speaker 3: because it took him three days to disman two principalities.
- 55:00Speaker 3: It did that to dissolve all doubts that it died,
- 55:06Speaker 3: and so also fulfilled prophecies. But like johna was three
- 55:09Speaker 3: days and three nights and the belluy of the free
- 55:11Speaker 3: socialistion of man be So we take this message, and
- 55:17Speaker 3: what's the application of that? That man seemed man could
- 55:20Speaker 3: not pay all efforts to a man to be redeemed filled.
- 55:26Speaker 3: God came, became man, paid, died and rose for us
- 55:31Speaker 3: to accept his life. Don't you don't give your life
- 55:34Speaker 3: to Christ. You don't have any life to give you.
- 55:37Speaker 4: You were dead.
- 55:40Speaker 2: You accept his life.
- 55:43Speaker 4: So we take.
- 55:47Speaker 2: This good news to tell people we have a good news.
- 55:54Speaker 2: The good news is that you.
- 55:57Speaker 3: Don't have to die like this already died in your place,
- 56:03Speaker 3: and he wants to give you his own life. It's
- 56:06Speaker 3: a good news. It's a good news. So, and I
- 56:18Speaker 3: say this jokingly all the time. Tomorrow may be too late.
- 56:22Speaker 3: Is not a lie, but it's not the gospel. But
- 56:28Speaker 3: it is also not a lie, because if you don't
- 56:30Speaker 3: accept him today, tomorrow may be too late. Now, this
- 56:38Speaker 3: Gospel is the light of God. That's the instrument that
- 56:44Speaker 3: God is using to turn the dark world into a
- 56:47Speaker 3: place of light. But the devil h has also learned
- 56:57Speaker 3: how to use the message of love and what ought
- 57:00Speaker 3: to be the message of hope and the Restoration.
- 57:04Speaker 2: As a message of wickedness.
- 57:07Speaker 3: Not because the message is but because the messenger can
- 57:11Speaker 3: weaponize the message.
- 57:19Speaker 2: I'll say this in person, Hope.
- 57:23Speaker 4: You know.
- 57:25Speaker 3: That Nigeria is believed to be the number one nation
- 57:30Speaker 3: in the world where people die because of their faith
- 57:34Speaker 3: or where Christians die the most.
- 57:37Speaker 2: Oh, yes, and Jeria many. I sat down.
- 57:48Speaker 3: To study the climate and the historical move of the Gospel,
- 57:54Speaker 3: and you have to listen so we don't head in
- 57:57Speaker 3: the wrong direction from the nations that brought it to us.
- 58:04Speaker 3: Let's take, for instance, the United States of America. You
- 58:10Speaker 3: talk about those on the right and those on the left,
- 58:15Speaker 3: and you feel that the problem of the world now
- 58:21Speaker 3: is LGBTQ. Plus, you need to ask yourself, why is
- 58:29Speaker 3: it that the most Christian government is also the most
- 58:34Speaker 3: hateful government, and people are saying, I'd rather die in
- 58:43Speaker 3: this thing that I know is wrong than to come
- 58:46Speaker 3: to this your God that saves, and you guys are
- 58:49Speaker 3: full of it. What kind of God sees blacks as monkeys.
- 58:55Speaker 3: I'm showing you the reason why many young intellectual country
- 58:59Speaker 3: relate with your gospel, not because your God is bad,
- 59:03Speaker 3: but that some who brought him to you weapon nice
- 59:06Speaker 3: died and history shows it.
- 59:11Speaker 4: And in the same light it is happening again now.
- 59:17Speaker 3: That people are saying it is possible for this gospel
- 59:21Speaker 3: to be weapon niced, improvis some and make a few wealthy.
- 59:30Speaker 3: The gospel in itself has never been the problem. The
- 59:36Speaker 3: force of the gospel is a powerful weapon. It turns
- 59:39Speaker 3: that community into a place of light. But men can
- 59:43Speaker 3: wield it wrongly for personal purpose. Let me show you
- 59:49Speaker 3: a few things, and you have to paying attention. Now,
- 59:53Speaker 3: say man, if you can hear.
- 59:54Speaker 4: Me, and when.
- 1:00:06Speaker 3: The gospel that should bring the liverance, rescue and restoration
- 1:00:10Speaker 3: to men, it is not being understood or wielded by
- 1:00:16Speaker 3: those who should bring it to the people as instruments
- 1:00:19Speaker 3: of injury, or instrument of destruction, or instrument of slavery.
- 1:00:28Speaker 4: What can happen is instead of contending for the gates of.
- 1:00:33Speaker 3: The enemy, our own gates becomes invaded. And there are
- 1:00:40Speaker 3: things we have to pay attention that can cause that
- 1:00:43Speaker 3: pay attention to. The first one is human hero. The
- 1:00:48Speaker 3: message is pure, but the content of the heart of
- 1:00:53Speaker 3: the future can affect it. And this is the reason
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: why boding is not enough a burden to set people free.
- 1:01:06Speaker 3: You must lend the linguor the body can be correct,
- 1:01:09Speaker 3: and the devil finish you at the point of communication.
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: I tell people.
- 1:01:17Speaker 3: We pray before we preach, and pray so hard. Number one,
- 1:01:22Speaker 3: we need to supply of entrance. But number two, I
- 1:01:25Speaker 3: don't want to be an entrance to the message because
- 1:01:29Speaker 3: I can get in the way what God wants to do,
- 1:01:32Speaker 3: and what God wants to do becomes weaponized and the
- 1:01:35Speaker 3: people isshu set free destroys.
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: Write it.
- 1:01:46Speaker 4: Number one human what's error?
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: The devil? See this is what the devil likes to do.
- 1:01:55Speaker 2: He knows you you like what is good? If I
- 1:01:59Speaker 2: come now and let's say I can't do a message.
- 1:02:01Speaker 3: Let's say I'm preaching about what is the message that
- 1:02:03Speaker 3: we generally don't want to hear?
- 1:02:04Speaker 4: Now in a bod of Christ.
- 1:02:06Speaker 3: Prosperity, Oh, prosperity preacher, if you see where they're rousing
- 1:02:13Speaker 3: people for seeing God prospers, if care is not taking
- 1:02:16Speaker 3: the first thing you'll tell yourself as a minister is
- 1:02:18Speaker 3: I don't to be a prosperity preter because the devil
- 1:02:21Speaker 3: use intimidation to give people direction. But does God wants
- 1:02:27Speaker 3: it torudent to prosper So why do we they not
- 1:02:29Speaker 3: prosperity gosp They said, the word prosperity gospel in itself?
- 1:02:33Speaker 3: Why do people that hit it? Well, you can trace
- 1:02:37Speaker 3: maybe there has been people who preached it out of place.
- 1:02:41Speaker 3: Then we throw the baby and the bad wordy way.
- 1:02:45Speaker 3: That's what we always do. So the devil knows that
- 1:02:48Speaker 3: it cannot discredit the message without making you discredit the message.
- 1:02:55Speaker 3: The message in itself becomes discredited when a believer speaking
- 1:03:01Speaker 3: is what.
- 1:03:01Speaker 2: Is correct is wrong because somebody taught it wrongly.
- 1:03:08Speaker 4: He said, Todd younger.
- 1:03:09Speaker 3: So I wish about all things that our Mayor's prospered
- 1:03:12Speaker 3: and been held even as also prospered.
- 1:03:14Speaker 4: And you said, the poor christy around.
- 1:03:16Speaker 3: What we do is that we at prosperity, but God
- 1:03:18Speaker 3: most prospersbod years then you become a eppa.
- 1:03:28Speaker 4: Human error. The greatest strikes to a truth is when
- 1:03:37Speaker 4: it is truth wrongly.
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: That's the greatest threat.
- 1:03:43Speaker 3: The devil has used this over the years, again and
- 1:03:46Speaker 3: again and again to discredit realities.
- 1:03:58Speaker 4: Number two, A thread and life.
- 1:04:03Speaker 3: And I want to say this at this junction, that
- 1:04:07Speaker 3: we must be careful of the kind of gospel we
- 1:04:11Speaker 3: are running with that never sees anything good in what
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: others are doing. You see, you will not know when
- 1:04:20Speaker 3: you move from genuine body and passion to becoming a
- 1:04:24Speaker 3: critic and an aitor.
- 1:04:28Speaker 2: Very easy. Look at this, this belief that I just say,
- 1:04:47Speaker 2: it's what I can say because.
- 1:04:53Speaker 3: See, let me tell you someone, there's been times, I
- 1:05:00Speaker 3: think once I've had to publicly stand and stood my ground,
- 1:05:06Speaker 3: and I'm still standing my ground against what I know
- 1:05:10Speaker 3: can threaten our collective future. We must different shit genuine
- 1:05:18Speaker 3: concerns from a thread. A thread is when you get
- 1:05:23Speaker 3: to the point where you don't see anything good in
- 1:05:25Speaker 3: people anymore because you don't like them. And if God
- 1:05:28Speaker 3: is not doing anything through you and your people, then
- 1:05:31Speaker 3: it's not correct. Once we get to that point, listen
- 1:05:38Speaker 3: because with your notting and tongues, your perioceiping inspiration are
- 1:05:41Speaker 3: you would.
- 1:05:42Speaker 4: Not raise the monic you have left your ministry. Don't
- 1:05:49Speaker 4: learn it.
- 1:05:56Speaker 3: If every time you owe them mic you have something
- 1:05:59Speaker 3: to say against somebody, you have left your ministry. What
- 1:06:05Speaker 3: are you doing so much that you know what everybody
- 1:06:07Speaker 3: is saying?
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: Wrong? Don't don't make see I'm saying this.
- 1:06:15Speaker 3: And because we've developed such spying and level of impudence
- 1:06:19Speaker 3: that we, you know, get to the point that we
- 1:06:21Speaker 3: won't call ourselves and call names.
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: We want to mock ourselves. He's all said that we build.
- 1:06:34Speaker 3: So it is a privilege, maybe in any of our
- 1:06:38Speaker 3: capacity to bring perspective on issues, not persons. Once we
- 1:06:48Speaker 3: become vindictive against people. And let me say this to you,
- 1:06:52Speaker 3: the easiest way to be small in your generation is
- 1:06:54Speaker 3: to fight what God is doing. Don't don't don't fight
- 1:06:59Speaker 3: it though, don't fight it. Don't fight it. Don't fight
- 1:07:04Speaker 3: what God is doing. Don't fight who God is lifting.
- 1:07:10Speaker 3: You feel the temptation, something will tell you do it now.
- 1:07:13Speaker 3: Speak It's real ate people resisted. I'm telling you so
- 1:07:22Speaker 3: that I have been labeled for years. You will not
- 1:07:25Speaker 3: come back and discover you've not done anything you left
- 1:07:30Speaker 3: You see when people are running race, whether two hundred
- 1:07:34Speaker 3: meters or whatever. They have their track in front of them.
- 1:07:37Speaker 3: If you become number one in another person's track, you
- 1:07:39Speaker 3: didn't win. Stay in your lane.
- 1:07:46Speaker 2: Stay.
- 1:07:46Speaker 3: What the message for a man on the wrong lane
- 1:07:50Speaker 3: is not consistency, is repentance?
- 1:07:53Speaker 2: Of course, start again? All right.
- 1:07:59Speaker 3: If you fight and criticize people, but you have never
- 1:08:03Speaker 3: come out to say, well, somebody.
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: Has done right, you have left your ministry. It read.
- 1:08:10Speaker 2: It can be masked in bodies.
- 1:08:13Speaker 4: Strive, Go and check.
- 1:08:17Speaker 2: The history of the move of God.
- 1:08:19Speaker 3: And I thank God for while Sammy was leading prayer,
- 1:08:24Speaker 3: the greatest revival that happened in the history of the
- 1:08:27Speaker 3: church happened in the act too, And it happened.
- 1:08:30Speaker 2: In the midst of unity. Unity is not a weakness,
- 1:08:34Speaker 2: it is strength. We may not preach.
- 1:08:37Speaker 3: Exactly the same thing, but almost find a way to collaborate.
- 1:08:50Speaker 4: You want to divide the white brand of Christ, don't
- 1:08:55Speaker 4: try it.
- 1:09:03Speaker 3: He's the one who gives men voice. If you put
- 1:09:06Speaker 3: off your mic, you will have to shout.
- 1:09:10Speaker 2: All right. So all right.
- 1:09:16Speaker 3: And the reason why people may not be held on
- 1:09:18Speaker 3: this journey because of the concept of a deception of
- 1:09:22Speaker 3: the devil also It is reception of Marthadon pseudo in
- 1:09:26Speaker 3: the sense that you believe whatever happens that is a
- 1:09:28Speaker 3: consequence of your fool listeness is actually because you are
- 1:09:31Speaker 3: suffering for Christ. No, the body of Christ can shot
- 1:09:36Speaker 3: against a voice sella.
