Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: Apostle Fermi Lazarus is a man raised by God to
- 0:06Speaker 1: demonstrate his wisdom and authority to the last day church.
- 0:10Speaker 1: He is the lead pastor of Sphere of Light Church
- 0:13Speaker 1: and God told him years ago that a time will
- 0:16Speaker 1: come where my wisdom will be needed to navigate tough
- 0:19Speaker 1: times in the body of Christ. Then I will cause
- 0:23Speaker 1: your voice to be heard. And all who pay attention
- 0:27Speaker 1: to my word on your lips. Will not lack light
- 0:31Speaker 1: and direction. He is a man sent from God. Sent
- 0:35Speaker 1: to raise God's end time armies. With Apostle Fermi Lazarus.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Every minute counts as you listen attentively.
- 0:46Speaker 2: The man must be a sponsor in the ministry. But
- 0:51Speaker 2: that was in Novings. I have found out. that each
- 0:55Speaker 2: time no means sponsors, because you can't even sponsor the work,
- 0:59Speaker 2: but each time you allow no means, give, without being mature,
- 1:05Speaker 2: it backfires. We look at, I'm trying to be careful.
- 1:14Speaker 2: I mean, sometimes majority of the issues that backfired to
- 1:19Speaker 2: be problem in the body of Christ, is because people
- 1:22Speaker 2: were allowed to function in depths that they don't understand.
- 1:25Speaker 2: You hear what I'm saying? I'm going to give you
- 1:29Speaker 2: a word of prophecy tonight. But listen to this. I mean,
- 1:36Speaker 2: this was a noble guy now. When you see this guy,
- 1:40Speaker 2: what was he doing? Reading the Bible. He was studying.
- 1:47Speaker 2: He was practically doing something. That brings edification to him.
- 1:52Speaker 2: But yet he does not understand. So Philip asked him.
- 1:55Speaker 2: You are reading the Bible. But understandest thou. Do you
- 2:00Speaker 2: have in depth understanding. Of the things that you are doing.
- 2:03Speaker 2: Look at what the man said. The man said to him.
- 2:07Speaker 2: And he said how can I. Accept some man should
- 2:10Speaker 2: guide me. And he desired Philip. That he would come.
- 2:16Speaker 2: And sit with him. And we began to examine the
- 2:18Speaker 2: life of Philip. that what really changed, what changed in
- 2:23Speaker 2: the life of Philip, that when Philip saw this man,
- 2:26Speaker 2: the first thing he began to ask him is, do
- 2:28Speaker 2: you understand? It is not the normal approach of every pastor.
- 2:34Speaker 2: You know, there is this assumption about church, that the
- 2:37Speaker 2: moment you can come as the people come, dress as
- 2:40Speaker 2: they dress, and speak the church language, then you are deep.
- 2:46Speaker 2: I once saw something that happened, um, What I'm teaching
- 2:51Speaker 2: is not from... It's not innocent. I'm going to show
- 2:54Speaker 2: you the framework. I once saw a YouTube video where
- 3:04Speaker 2: a young man, three of them, were discussing the rules
- 3:09Speaker 2: to speak against a major church in Nigeria. And one
- 3:14Speaker 2: of the guys said, he said he was an assistant
- 3:16Speaker 2: pastor in that church. Now, This guy smokes weed and
- 3:24Speaker 2: does all, please listen to what I'm trying to teach you.
- 3:28Speaker 2: He does all forms of drinks. So I was really
- 3:32Speaker 2: interested in his story when he said, I was an
- 3:33Speaker 2: assistant pastor in that church. But this is the breaker.
- 3:37Speaker 2: He said, I got to that church as one who
- 3:39Speaker 2: was sincerely in need of God. He said, but because
- 3:44Speaker 2: I just left cult and now I'm a Christian.
- 3:47Speaker 3: So I decided to dress and, you know, come to
- 3:50Speaker 3: church early.
- 3:50Speaker 2: He said, I have so much hunger. He said, but
- 3:53Speaker 2: to my greatest surprise, in less than three months, they
- 3:56Speaker 2: were going to start a new branch and they made
- 3:58Speaker 2: me the assistant pastor. The guy had not been, do
- 4:03Speaker 2: you understand what I'm saying?
- 4:04Speaker 3: They've not matured him.
- 4:05Speaker 2: Sometimes we have crushed people because we give them responsibility
- 4:10Speaker 2: before growth. And I said to you, it backfires. So
- 4:17Speaker 2: the guy said, they made him an assistant pastor. Please listen.
- 4:20Speaker 2: All right. And then they put them to another church.
- 4:23Speaker 2: They gave them offering basket, broom, pulpit, and the light.
- 4:27Speaker 2: He said they are starting another church. Now, this was
- 4:30Speaker 2: what really affected this guy's life in a very dangerous way.
- 4:34Speaker 2: He said he began to observe that the person that
- 4:37Speaker 2: was made pastor will increase the figure of the tithe.
- 4:44Speaker 2: If people give 10,000 erratite on Sunday, he will have
- 4:47Speaker 2: his own 5,000.
- 4:48Speaker 3: And he was wondering what is happening.
- 4:52Speaker 2: And the guy will also inflame the attendance.
- 4:55Speaker 3: If they have 50 people.
- 4:56Speaker 2: In church, he will say they have 70 people in church.
- 4:59Speaker 2: He said over time he discovered that the guy was
- 5:01Speaker 2: doing all those things so that he could get promotion.
- 5:07Speaker 2: Are you seeing how that we have built a kind
- 5:10Speaker 2: of system that we no longer check if men have calling.
- 5:14Speaker 2: As long as you can maintain attendance.
- 5:15Speaker 3: And offering, you have started building your own career.
- 5:18Speaker 2: And like that, if you are a man who is
- 5:20Speaker 2: after all these things, you can build your career. In
- 5:22Speaker 2: another five months, five years, they can predict where you'll be.
- 5:26Speaker 2: So we seem to have more churches, but the effect
- 5:29Speaker 2: is reducing. You know why?
- 5:30Speaker 3: Because now we are raising managers.
- 5:33Speaker 2: Men who have no understanding. And now babies have to
- 5:37Speaker 2: watch over babies. And these are very serious matters. These
- 5:44Speaker 2: are very serious matters. Now, I believe some of you
- 5:49Speaker 2: saw something that happened like that. I mean, I saw it.
- 5:52Speaker 2: I wept before God. Of a young man recently that
- 5:57Speaker 2: came out in this same Abuja and said that, he said,
- 6:04Speaker 2: these are my tight envelopes. These are my tithe records.
- 6:09Speaker 2: He said, they told us that when we are giving
- 6:12Speaker 2: these tithes, it's kingdom investment. He said, now there's hardship
- 6:16Speaker 2: in Nigeria. I'm no longer interested in investing in kingdom.
- 6:20Speaker 2: I'm calling out my senior pastor, bring back my tithe.
- 6:25Speaker 2: He said, you told us it's kingdom.
- 6:27Speaker 3: He said, I'm not even interested in heaven.
- 6:29Speaker 2: I want to go to hell. Now, what shocked me
- 6:32Speaker 2: in the midst of those conversations when the guy was
- 6:35Speaker 2: talking Of course, you know that there are people who
- 6:38Speaker 2: readily share all those things. I saw all those pastors.
- 6:41Speaker 2: You see them, they are thieves. His tithe, his offering.
- 6:44Speaker 2: What shocked me when the guy was talking was that
- 6:46Speaker 2: he brought out certificates. I said, this is my membership
- 6:50Speaker 2: class certificate. This is my workers training certificate. This is
- 6:54Speaker 2: my school of disciples certificate. This is school of ministry certificate.
- 6:58Speaker 2: So we give men certification without understanding. So when the
- 7:04Speaker 2: Bible says that it will come to pass in the
- 7:06Speaker 2: last days, that they shall be fallen away first. The
- 7:09Speaker 2: people who will fall are those who are not rooted
- 7:12Speaker 2: deep in understanding. Are you following what I'm saying?
- 7:16Speaker 3: And that's why, listen, in.
- 7:18Speaker 2: Any move in the scheme of God's operation, where there
- 7:22Speaker 2: are no teachers, no matter how powerful it is, it
- 7:25Speaker 2: will land in error. Because what is happening now, and...
- 7:33Speaker 2: What is happening now is that people are thinking, it's
- 7:37Speaker 2: like what is raining now is apostolic ministry. Okay, it's
- 7:41Speaker 2: like if I talk like this, crowd will come. And
- 7:46Speaker 2: then you see many people saying things they don't have
- 7:48Speaker 2: any understanding about.
- 7:50Speaker 3: Ministry is far deeper.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Than the attempt to sound like people for the purpose
- 7:57Speaker 2: of bringing physical things. In ministry, you go where you
- 8:02Speaker 2: are told to go and you do what you are.
- 8:04Speaker 3: Told to do.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Regardless of what number of people gather or fail to gather.
- 8:10Speaker 2: You see, the reason why Saul lost his bishopric, let
- 8:14Speaker 2: me use that word bishopric, why he lost his throne,
- 8:17Speaker 2: was because when it was time for him to sacrifice
- 8:19Speaker 2: and wait for Samuel, he said the people were leaving,
- 8:23Speaker 2: so I sacrifice. Genuine ministry. Can I show you a scripture?
- 8:28Speaker 2: Turn to the Bible, John chapter number 6, quickly. John
- 8:31Speaker 2: chapter number 6. Let me show you a scripture. Now
- 8:35Speaker 2: I'm laying foundation. And I'd like you to please follow me.
- 8:42Speaker 2: John chapter number 6. Amen. Are you with me? Amen.
- 8:55Speaker 2: Are you with me? If you're with me, say amen.
- 8:58Speaker 2: Now I'm trying to lay a foundation here. Now, John
- 9:01Speaker 2: chapter number 6, let me give you a background of
- 9:03Speaker 2: the story. Now, Jesus began to share with his disciples very,
- 9:07Speaker 2: very powerful things. He began to share with them how
- 9:13Speaker 2: that they will have to eat of his flesh and
- 9:16Speaker 2: drink of his blood.
- 9:19Speaker 3: He was showing them the mystery of the communion.
- 9:23Speaker 2: And the Bible said when they all heard these things,
- 9:25Speaker 2: they said it is a happening. They all said, what
- 9:29Speaker 2: he's saying is a hard thing. And then one by one,
- 9:33Speaker 2: they picked their things and they left. And then Jesus
- 9:37Speaker 2: looked at the 12. And the next thing he will
- 9:40Speaker 2: ask them will wow you. He said, will you also go?
- 9:45Speaker 2: And he said, to whom shall we go? Who is
- 9:47Speaker 2: it that have the word of life? So I saw
- 9:50Speaker 2: something about Jesus that he will stay with the message
- 9:54Speaker 2: regardless of who lives or stays. Are you following? what
- 10:00Speaker 2: I'm saying? Because the implication of this movement and swaying
- 10:05Speaker 2: up and down is that we'll have people who are
- 10:07Speaker 2: shouting about what they don't know.
- 10:12Speaker 3: Oh, I'm ready to die. Kill me, Jesus.
- 10:17Speaker 2: All those noises. You cannot talk about dying for Jesus
- 10:21Speaker 2: if you don't write about dying daily. So we have
- 10:25Speaker 2: come to a point where people have very ambiguous statements.
- 10:30Speaker 2: But it is not deep because there is no understanding.
- 10:36Speaker 2: Proverbs 24. Look at from verse 3. Proverbs chapter number 24.
- 10:41Speaker 2: Please follow me. Proverbs 24. If you are there, say Amen.
- 10:47Speaker 2: Please say it loud and clear. Look at it. Proverbs
- 10:55Speaker 2: chapter number 24. Let's start reading from verse 3. Now,
- 10:58Speaker 2: true wisdom is unhouse-builded. And by understanding it is what?
- 11:05Speaker 2: Come on now, say it again. By understanding it is what?
- 11:08Speaker 2: By understanding it is what? So, meaning that, as Paul
- 11:12Speaker 2: was speaking, 1 Corinthians chapter number 3. Now, let's compare scriptures.
- 11:15Speaker 2: 1 Corinthians chapter number 3. 1 Corinthians 3, please. Now
- 11:20Speaker 2: look at it. Go to verse 10. 1 Corinthians 3,
- 11:25Speaker 2: verse 10. He said, according to the grace of God,
- 11:29Speaker 2: which is given unto me as a wise master builder,
- 11:33Speaker 2: I have laid the foundation and another builder thereon. But
- 11:38Speaker 2: let every man take heed how he built thereon. So
- 11:40Speaker 2: if he says that as a wise master builder, it
- 11:42Speaker 2: means you are a builder. Verse 9 says that. It
- 11:44Speaker 2: says you are God's builder. So if you are God's building,
- 11:48Speaker 2: it means you will not last if you are not
- 11:50Speaker 2: a man of understanding. Do you understand what I'm saying?
- 11:56Speaker 2: You will not last until we have a situation where
- 12:04Speaker 2: you are made to sit down and line upon lines,
- 12:08Speaker 2: precept upon precept, your understanding is built.
- 12:12Speaker 3: The gap between knowledge.
- 12:14Speaker 2: And understanding is as wide as heaven and earth. Meaning that, see,
- 12:19Speaker 2: knowledge is that I have said something and you have
- 12:22Speaker 2: the capacity to retain it. Understand is that I have
- 12:26Speaker 2: said something but the light of God has broken in
- 12:28Speaker 2: your heart to see the in-depth meaning and your own
- 12:32Speaker 2: participation with it. Do you understand what I'm saying? Listen,
- 12:37Speaker 2: that's why I tell people there are no popular scriptures.
- 12:42Speaker 2: The day it becomes popular is the day you will
- 12:44Speaker 2: not understand it. Popular is in the sense that you
- 12:47Speaker 2: can quote it understanding is in the sense that you
- 12:51Speaker 2: live it. Do you get what I'm saying?
- 12:54Speaker 3: Sometimes you can quote a scripture you don't know. You say, ah, ah,
- 12:59Speaker 3: the spirit speaks expressly.
- 13:02Speaker 2: What does that mean?
- 13:03Speaker 3: You can quote it. Do you understand what I'm saying?
- 13:08Speaker 2: Let me say this to you. There are many people
- 13:10Speaker 2: who sit amongst us who don't understand what we are doing.
- 13:16Speaker 2: And one of the peculiarities of what will happen in
- 13:18Speaker 2: the last days Is that people will fall away. People
- 13:25Speaker 2: will follow different winds of doctrines. People will be carried by.
- 13:30Speaker 3: Have you.
- 13:31Speaker 2: I mean.
- 13:32Speaker 3: You should be amazed now. Was I sharing on Sunday.
- 13:37Speaker 3: You'll be amazed.
- 13:38Speaker 2: Sometimes you look at church. You see a very very
- 13:40Speaker 2: interesting sister. Say this is a child of God. Suddenly
- 13:44Speaker 2: you hear that the sister has married an alhaj. You
- 13:48Speaker 2: flash back. When we sang.
- 13:50Speaker 3: She sang.
- 13:52Speaker 2: When we prayed, she prayed. When we spoke in tongues,
- 13:55Speaker 2: she spoke in tongues. But she did not understand. I
- 14:00Speaker 2: was sharing with people, I used to have a guy,
- 14:05Speaker 2: a pastor, I won't mention the church, but right now
- 14:08Speaker 2: as I speak, this guy is a practicing abbalist. I'm
- 14:14Speaker 2: not talking about abbalists that wear suits and use them
- 14:16Speaker 2: of Christ. I'm talking about abbalists that have gone back
- 14:18Speaker 2: to the shrines. From full-time ministry to full-time shrine. How
- 14:23Speaker 2: can men move from those extremes? It is because they
- 14:27Speaker 2: were never men of understanding in the first place. Your
- 14:31Speaker 2: foundations are not laid until you understand. And as long
- 14:36Speaker 2: as your foundations are not laid, a lot of surprises
- 14:40Speaker 2: can come. Are you following what I'm saying here? You
- 14:42Speaker 2: wonder why is it that we are trying to get
- 14:44Speaker 2: people to do this and do that and all that.
- 14:46Speaker 3: How come they can't do it? They do not what?
- 14:48Speaker 2: Understand. Understand. They don't. Look at what the Bible says now,
- 14:55Speaker 2: Psalms 82. I'm going to show you the effect of
- 15:01Speaker 2: what happens when there's no understanding. Psalms chapter number 82. Please,
- 15:08Speaker 2: if you're there, say amen. Now look at it, Psalms
- 15:11Speaker 2: chapter number 82. Let's start the reading from verse 5.
- 15:17Speaker 2: He said, What was the next statement? Alright? What happens?
- 15:26Speaker 2: And because they don't understand, they walk on in darkness.
- 15:29Speaker 2: All the foundations of the earth are out of course.
- 15:33Speaker 2: I have said, ye are gods. All of you are
- 15:36Speaker 2: sons of the Messiah. But ye shall die like men
- 15:38Speaker 2: and fall like one of the princes. Why? There is
- 15:41Speaker 2: no understanding. Let me give you an instance. Look up.
- 15:49Speaker 2: This example I want to give you will help those
- 15:55Speaker 2: of you who are struggling with studying the word to
- 15:58Speaker 2: know that it's a matter of life and death. Let
- 16:00Speaker 2: me explain. Have you wondered the reason why you can
- 16:06Speaker 2: see ministers whose ministries was based on healing certain kind
- 16:11Speaker 2: of sickness and they also died of that sickness?
- 16:15Speaker 3: You don't need to.
- 16:16Speaker 2: Understand the anointing for it to function. But you need
- 16:20Speaker 2: to understand the word for you to eat the fruit.
- 16:24Speaker 2: Do you hear what I'm saying? They don't understand. What
- 16:27Speaker 2: I'm telling you is that I can call you and say, Nakali, come.
- 16:32Speaker 2: And I lay hands on him. I say, oh, by
- 16:33Speaker 2: the grace of God for my life, I impart you
- 16:35Speaker 2: today the same grace to carry the healing power of
- 16:37Speaker 2: God to the nations. And he will go and everyone
- 16:42Speaker 2: he will lay hands upon will be healed. And that
- 16:46Speaker 2: same night, the same man can come under the same sickness.
- 16:49Speaker 2: Because the anointing upon does not check what you understand
- 16:52Speaker 2: to work. Do you understand what I'm saying there? The
- 16:56Speaker 2: anointing upon does not, it doesn't, see, even a fool
- 17:00Speaker 2: can manifest the anointing upon. The donkey of Balaam spoke,
- 17:04Speaker 2: but it was still a donkey. Do you understand what
- 17:08Speaker 2: I'm saying?
- 17:08Speaker 3: So we do not rate men by, and painfully, that is.
- 17:14Speaker 2: The mistake we make. That you don't rate men by
- 17:17Speaker 2: the quality of their secret place. You rate them by
- 17:21Speaker 2: their noise. And every now and.
- 17:26Speaker 3: Then you keep seeing the same people.
- 17:28Speaker 2: That you assume and believe are deep and are there.
- 17:32Speaker 2: Come under the things you think they are rescuing people from.
- 17:36Speaker 2: Sometimes I wonder, please be seated. I mean, how can
- 17:39Speaker 2: a pastor begin to have unhealthy affection for members in
- 17:44Speaker 2: church to the point that he now begins to touch girls?
- 17:48Speaker 2: He does not understand. If you understand what it means
- 17:55Speaker 2: to be a shepherd, you will know that the first
- 17:58Speaker 2: reason why God plants his children under a shepherd in
- 18:00Speaker 2: the first place is so they can be defended. By
- 18:05Speaker 2: that you have failed the first test. Why? You do
- 18:09Speaker 2: not understand.
- 18:10Speaker 3: Do you get what I'm saying? So when you understand.
- 18:15Speaker 2: The power of Having scriptures in your spirit. If you
- 18:23Speaker 2: really understand the power, nobody will beg you to study.
- 18:29Speaker 2: You will know that it's a warfare. Why do you
- 18:31Speaker 2: think the devil does not mind you doing every other
- 18:33Speaker 2: thing but don't read the Bible and pray? Because you
- 18:36Speaker 2: understand that for everyone we stand in, that is where
- 18:39Speaker 2: the real strength comes from. There are men who bend
- 18:42Speaker 2: their knees and bend their heads to study. But when
- 18:47Speaker 2: you listen to our message, they will tell you, you
- 18:48Speaker 2: don't prepare the battle. You pray for the battle. Let
- 18:55Speaker 2: me tell you this. I mean, Jesus speaking. Now, that's
- 18:57Speaker 2: in John 6. John chapter number 6, verse 63. He said, look,
- 19:01Speaker 2: let's check. I don't just want to quote, so you
- 19:04Speaker 2: can retain the scripture. John 6, verse 63. John chapter
- 19:09Speaker 2: number 6, verse 63. Okay. If your hunger is stretched,
- 19:20Speaker 2: you will get some things tonight that would have taken
- 19:23Speaker 2: some five years to get.
- 19:24Speaker 3: Do you believe? Now look at what Jesus said to them.
- 19:32Speaker 3: John 6 verse 63. He said, it is the spirit
- 19:35Speaker 3: that quickeneth, the flesh profiteth nothing. The words that I speak.
- 19:40Speaker 2: Unto you, they are spirit and they are what? They
- 19:42Speaker 2: are life. These words that I speak, they are spirit
- 19:45Speaker 2: and they are what? Say it again. The words are
- 19:47Speaker 2: spirit and they are what? Life.
- 19:49Speaker 3: So it means when you find the word, you are
- 19:52Speaker 3: found life.
- 19:54Speaker 2: Look at what Jesus was saying in John chapter number
- 19:56Speaker 2: 15 now. John 15.
- 19:58Speaker 3: Quickly.
- 19:58Speaker 2: Turn your Bibles there. John chapter number 15 verse 3.
- 20:03Speaker 2: John 15 verse 3. Is it 15? 6 now.
- 20:05Speaker 3: Okay.
- 20:07Speaker 2: Now look at what it says. It said you are
- 20:08Speaker 2: clean Through the word which I have spoken unto you.
- 20:14Speaker 2: You are clean through the word which I have spoken
- 20:16Speaker 2: to you. John 17 verse 3. He said, this is
- 20:19Speaker 2: eternal life. That they might know you, the only true God.
- 20:24Speaker 2: And Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent. He said, that
- 20:27Speaker 2: is life. That is real life. Is a knowledge. Please
- 20:30Speaker 2: follow me now. John chapter number 1. John chapter number
- 20:35Speaker 2: 1 from verse 1. So we can have a decent reading.
- 20:37Speaker 2: It said, In the beginning was the Word, and the
- 20:39Speaker 2: Word was with God, and the Word was God. The
- 20:41Speaker 2: same was in the beginning with God. All things were
- 20:45Speaker 2: made by Him, and without Him was not anything made
- 20:47Speaker 2: that was made. In Him was life, and that life
- 20:50Speaker 2: is the light of men. So are you following what
- 20:52Speaker 2: I'm saying? If in Him is life, and that life
- 20:54Speaker 2: is the light of men, look at it. Psalms 119.
- 20:58Speaker 2: Let's compare the scriptures. Psalms 119 now. Let's go to
- 21:03Speaker 2: verse 11. Psalm 119 verse 11. It said, Your word
- 21:08Speaker 2: have I hidden in my heart, that I may not
- 21:11Speaker 2: sin against you. Now listen to this. It means that
- 21:14Speaker 2: when you find that word, it produces a kind of life.
- 21:18Speaker 2: That word is life. Please get what I'm saying. The
- 21:24Speaker 2: word of God is life. Do you know how it
- 21:27Speaker 2: is that you can have a patient that is struggling
- 21:33Speaker 2: with life, And doctors will say, let's place this patient
- 21:37Speaker 2: on oxygen. And many people have died because somehow their
- 21:43Speaker 2: oxygen tank failed. What is contained in that cylinder?
- 21:49Speaker 1: Oxygen.
- 21:50Speaker 3: What is it to the fellow we seek?
- 21:52Speaker 2: Life. If you understand what this is, you will know
- 21:58Speaker 2: that each time.
- 21:59Speaker 3: You will read the word and sit with it, it
- 22:01Speaker 3: is actually life.
- 22:02Speaker 2: Life. See, listen. When we preach like this, we are
- 22:09Speaker 2: dispensing life. Are you seeing that it is more dangerous
- 22:13Speaker 2: to keep dispensing life and not taking in life?
- 22:17Speaker 3: It is life.
- 22:19Speaker 2: And that life can power your system. The life can
- 22:24Speaker 2: power your body. That life can override doctor's report. Listen now. No, no.
- 22:38Speaker 2: I've shared this story. He was sick. And he went
- 22:41Speaker 2: to the hospital for a checkup. And the doctor said
- 22:45Speaker 2: it is cancer. And when they said it was cancer,
- 22:51Speaker 2: and they said, what we are seeing here looks so invasive,
- 22:54Speaker 2: and we will have just a few months to live.
- 22:56Speaker 2: He said, thank you. I'm telling you, he shared this
- 23:00Speaker 2: story himself. You can check online. And he said he
- 23:03Speaker 2: got the tapes of Kenneth Eagin, Kenneth Copeland, Gloria Copeland
- 23:08Speaker 2: on faith and healing. And he locked himself up. And
- 23:15Speaker 2: was eating the word back to back. And after a while,
- 23:20Speaker 2: when he saw that he's been saturated, he came out
- 23:23Speaker 2: again and went for another test. And they could not
- 23:25Speaker 2: find the same cancer. And God said to him, listen
- 23:28Speaker 2: to this. God said to him, he said, people die
- 23:31Speaker 2: of sickness. When they stop taking in life. Now listen
- 23:34Speaker 2: to this.
- 23:36Speaker 3: Let's share the story. A 25, 24 year old boy.
- 23:42Speaker 2: Who one day. Was invited by. And they go to
- 23:49Speaker 2: the house of. First encounter. He was coming to. And
- 23:56Speaker 2: when he was about to. A very tall man. Shouted
- 24:00Speaker 2: at him.
- 24:01Speaker 3: Drop that.
- 24:02Speaker 2: And he collected and trashed it. He said, we don't
- 24:07Speaker 2: come into my house with a lie. The issue is this.
- 24:12Speaker 2: There are many people who are not kidnapped yet. But
- 24:15Speaker 2: because of the level of death they have ingested through
- 24:19Speaker 2: those information, it's just a matter of time. Kidnappers will
- 24:22Speaker 2: one day sit down and say, let's do this. Their
- 24:24Speaker 2: timing and everything will align with the one who have
- 24:26Speaker 2: ingested it and is now afraid of it. Fear is
- 24:29Speaker 2: an energy in the spirit. It makes what you fear
- 24:32Speaker 2: locate you easily. And that's the same way faith is.
- 24:37Speaker 2: And this faith comes when we build. If you understand
- 24:40Speaker 2: this thing, you will.
- 24:42Speaker 3: Not eat anything anyhow.
- 24:43Speaker 2: Let me tell you this. I do not watch anything
- 24:46Speaker 2: that they say is a fail. This is a fail
- 24:49Speaker 2: video people are trying to do. I don't watch it.
- 24:53Speaker 2: I don't watch it. Because nothing I do can fail.
- 24:57Speaker 2: So you say, let's just be serious.
- 24:59Speaker 3: Don't be too serious.
- 25:00Speaker 2: It's just, I just watch.
- 25:02Speaker 4: No.
- 25:04Speaker 3: When you take it, a level of life is deposited.
- 25:08Speaker 2: And the day you will need it the most, the
- 25:10Speaker 2: devil will use it as a card against you. When
- 25:13Speaker 2: you haven't understood, see, and that's why you don't sit
- 25:15Speaker 2: in the seat of the scum pool. Some of you say,
- 25:17Speaker 2: I'm in the ministry, I trust God in the grace here. See,
- 25:20Speaker 2: it is just a matter of time.
- 25:21Speaker 3: Hang around those who don't.
- 25:25Speaker 2: Just hang around those who don't. Hang around a fool,
- 25:28Speaker 2: and you'll see that the foolishness can become a life
- 25:30Speaker 2: powered in you. When you understand these things, then you
- 25:35Speaker 2: will now have a deep understanding of the reason why
- 25:38Speaker 2: the Bible.
- 25:39Speaker 3: Says, guard your heart with all what? Diligence.
- 25:43Speaker 2: I mean, that word, all diligence. That's the only scripture
- 25:47Speaker 2: that exists. When it comes to guarding your heart. All!
- 25:53Speaker 2: That is, put all the effort you have to guarding
- 25:57Speaker 2: what comes in here. Are you following what I'm saying there?
- 26:01Speaker 2: Many people are fed on The videos of death, of
- 26:06Speaker 2: bad things, of failures, of evil things, they will sit down.
- 26:10Speaker 2: I remember in those days in the West, every Friday,
- 26:14Speaker 2: 8 p.m., family members, everybody would gather around the radio.
- 26:18Speaker 2: What are they going to start sharing? They are going
- 26:20Speaker 2: to share how somebody died mysteriously, how bad things happened.
- 26:24Speaker 2: And as the lastborn in the house, when we are finished,
- 26:28Speaker 2: we will all come outside the house and sit in
- 26:31Speaker 2: the compound to eat. And do all those things. And
- 26:35Speaker 2: when they have shared all those things. They will now
- 26:36Speaker 2: ask me to carry the plate. Inside. Alone. And I
- 26:45Speaker 2: remembered one day. They observed me. After hearing those things.
- 26:50Speaker 2: And they asked me to carry all the plate of
- 26:51Speaker 2: everybody inside. We hear my leg. Come back.
- 26:56Speaker 3: So one of my uncles.
- 27:00Speaker 2: Went inside. I didn't know when he went inside. And
- 27:03Speaker 2: he went to tie a white clothes. A white clothes.
- 27:09Speaker 2: Wrapped around himself. And put.
- 27:13Speaker 3: There is this thing they call shally. You don't know it.
- 27:16Speaker 2: Like white powder. And put it on his face. And
- 27:20Speaker 2: as I was taking the plate. Inside. He just came out.
- 27:25Speaker 2: Of the. Toilet. Like this. Two things happened. First, all
- 27:34Speaker 2: the plates broke. Then secondly, both of us shouted. Because
- 27:41Speaker 2: the next thing my instinct did was to pounce on
- 27:44Speaker 2: him and I bite him. He shouted me to myself.
- 27:50Speaker 2: What informed that? We have sat down as a family
- 27:54Speaker 2: to ingest death. I... If we are going to raise believers, see,
- 28:07Speaker 2: how do I help you understand this? If we are
- 28:11Speaker 2: going to raise believers that will overcome all the onslaught
- 28:15Speaker 2: of the devil, that will overcome all the traps and
- 28:21Speaker 2: all the terrible things the devil is planning in the
- 28:23Speaker 2: last days, we must raise people who are built in
- 28:26Speaker 2: the word. That's their niche. If you know the number
- 28:37Speaker 2: of Christians who are still alive and things are fine,
- 28:42Speaker 2: like physical problems, and they, as we speak, they are
- 28:53Speaker 2: powered by the thoughts and the fear of a certain
- 28:56Speaker 2: kind of sickness, that they have ingested information about it,
- 29:01Speaker 2: sometimes because it killed someone close to them. And they've
- 29:05Speaker 2: seen it and, oh, somebody had that attack. Oh, somebody
- 29:08Speaker 2: had diabetes. Oh, somebody had this. The same way you
- 29:11Speaker 2: have ingested those consciousness of death that is now powering
- 29:16Speaker 2: your thought system is the same way you can ingest life.
- 29:22Speaker 2: Do you understand what I'm saying? That the devil knows
- 29:25Speaker 2: there is nothing he can do.
- 29:27Speaker 3: He has eaten this too deep.
- 29:30Speaker 2: And if that is going to be your experience, your
- 29:31Speaker 2: lifestyle must be strict. You will be a careful and
- 29:39Speaker 2: a selective eater. See, I don't eat anything because a
- 29:44Speaker 2: trusted man of God is speaking. What he's saying, does
- 29:48Speaker 2: it align with the finished works of Christ on the cross?
- 29:55Speaker 2: Are you following what I'm saying here? So the question
- 29:57Speaker 2: again I want to ask you is, Understand this, our readers.
- 30:02Speaker 2: Do you understand that the word of God is indeed life?
- 30:10Speaker 2: You might have known it, but I'm asking you, do
- 30:14Speaker 2: you understand that the same way people who have malaria
- 30:21Speaker 2: will trust anti-malaria drugs is the same way you can
- 30:25Speaker 2: trust the word to deliver? I said amen. I said
- 30:31Speaker 2: you can trust the word to deliver. I said again,
- 30:34Speaker 2: you can trust the word to deliver. Now let me
- 30:37Speaker 2: share this with you. Years back, I just noticed I
- 30:42Speaker 2: was not feeling well. And I want to share a story.
- 30:46Speaker 2: Because I'm going to pray somewhere in between my teaching.
- 30:49Speaker 2: I'm going to pray for those who are sick. And
- 30:54Speaker 2: I went to the hospital for checkup. I've tried taking
- 30:58Speaker 2: some antibiotics. I wasn't getting well. And, you know. So
- 31:03Speaker 2: I went for a checkup. And they did my vitals,
- 31:08Speaker 2: checked my vitals, and full blood count. And they said, okay,
- 31:11Speaker 2: we are seeing that your white blood cell count is
- 31:13Speaker 2: actually higher. All right, this is indicating this. And they
- 31:17Speaker 2: said it's sepsis. And I became hospitalized. And I observed that.
- 31:26Speaker 2: that I was not just battling with this weakness and
- 31:28Speaker 2: all that. At some point, I couldn't breathe. And I
- 31:31Speaker 2: had to be placed on oxygen. And I was in about,
- 31:34Speaker 2: how many hospitals? Four to five hospitals. I remember one
- 31:40Speaker 2: Wednesday night, I mean, the devil really came. And after
- 31:46Speaker 2: the experience, at some point I was discharged, I had
- 31:49Speaker 2: to come back to see a consultant.
- 31:51Speaker 3: I had to do chest x-ray. I did ECG.
- 31:55Speaker 2: I did many things, many tests, and I kept submitting everything.
- 32:02Speaker 2: And they said, looking at the chest x-rays, looking clouded,
- 32:06Speaker 2: it's like as a result of the white blood cell
- 32:09Speaker 2: affecting your lungs, this, this, this, you might be having
- 32:12Speaker 2: asthma and all that. So the doctor said I should
- 32:16Speaker 2: keep coming. And one day, I remember before I got discharged,
- 32:24Speaker 2: I sat on the hospital bed And I was early
- 32:27Speaker 2: in the morning around 4 a.m. And I was crying
- 32:29Speaker 2: to the Lord in my devotion. And I said, God,
- 32:32Speaker 2: I'm tired of this chain. I need to be out
- 32:34Speaker 2: of this place. Where have you been, oh Lord? And
- 32:36Speaker 2: he said, I've always been here. You can't be here
- 32:39Speaker 2: and I'm in this hospital. Today I'll be discharged. And
- 32:43Speaker 2: I went to meet him. I said, I'm free. I
- 32:44Speaker 2: need to go. So it was after then I had
- 32:47Speaker 2: to keep going back to see the consultant every week.
- 32:53Speaker 2: And one day I gathered all the everything I was
- 32:56Speaker 2: going again I was given about 10 different drugs I
- 33:00Speaker 2: had to be taken 10 do you know what it
- 33:03Speaker 2: means to live on 10 different drugs and that's why
- 33:07Speaker 2: I'm going to pray for all those who are oppressed
- 33:09Speaker 2: by sickness and a consciousness just downed on me this
- 33:16Speaker 2: consultant is not God that was all this consultant is
- 33:23Speaker 2: not God That was all. This consultant is not God.
- 33:30Speaker 2: That was all. And I brought out all the stores
- 33:36Speaker 2: and all that from the hospital. The drugs, I trampled
- 33:40Speaker 2: on all of them and matched them. And I said,
- 33:43Speaker 2: I will put my life on the world. And I
- 33:46Speaker 2: know it can feel. Till today, I've never had reasons
- 33:49Speaker 2: to go back. That is how powerful the word can deliver.
- 33:54Speaker 2: There's one of my daughters, I believe she's watching right now,
- 33:58Speaker 2: who suddenly discovered a growth on her back. And said,
- 34:04Speaker 2: this growth, I said, go for tests. Went for different
- 34:08Speaker 2: tests and they gave her the results. And they were
- 34:12Speaker 2: diagnosing a form of cancer. And she was crying. And
- 34:19Speaker 2: it was a very serious one because she also used
- 34:23Speaker 2: to have a mentor who died of cancer. And that
- 34:27Speaker 2: mentor was a mutual mentor. Have you seen that? So
- 34:32Speaker 2: I knew that the devil has attacked her mind through fear.
- 34:37Speaker 2: And she said to me, I believe if you pray
- 34:40Speaker 2: for me, I can be healed. I said, are you sure?
- 34:43Speaker 2: She said, yes. She said, this is what we are
- 34:44Speaker 2: going to do. Bring all the reports. Bring all the
- 34:50Speaker 2: reports and all the medications. Do you believe, said yes.
- 34:53Speaker 3: I said, we will tear them.
- 34:54Speaker 2: Say, ah, no, ah, papa. I said, then you don't believe.
- 35:00Speaker 3: Then she came back after a few days and said,
- 35:02Speaker 3: now I believe. I said, bring them.
- 35:05Speaker 2: I said, Lord Jesus, we are trusting in the integrity
- 35:08Speaker 2: of your word. Do you hear what I'm saying? The
- 35:11Speaker 2: reason why they will tell you don't try this at
- 35:12Speaker 2: home is because they know you don't understand. If it
- 35:17Speaker 2: is faith, it works always. See, the word of God
- 35:21Speaker 2: will be useless if it has mood swing. The word
- 35:27Speaker 2: doesn't work every once in a while. It works always
- 35:31Speaker 2: if engaged well. Do you understand what I'm saying? The
- 35:35Speaker 2: word of God does not work every once in a.
- 35:37Speaker 3: It works always.
- 35:42Speaker 2: What about the case of.
- 35:43Speaker 3: Those who were sick and they died of the sickness?
- 35:45Speaker 2: Listen, it was because we were not able to get
- 35:47Speaker 2: to the place where they were and saturate them. Do
- 35:51Speaker 2: you understand what I'm saying? Do you understand what I'm saying?
- 35:54Speaker 2: This guy said, we're going to give Jesus, all right,
- 35:55Speaker 2: we bank on your word and this is it. Seven
- 35:58Speaker 2: days this cancer is going. He said on the sixth day,
- 36:04Speaker 2: he stood in front of the mirror, was checking, and
- 36:09Speaker 2: everything was still there fresh. And she was in tears.
- 36:13Speaker 2: And somehow she picked it up and said, I'm not
- 36:14Speaker 2: going to cry. The word of God's servant has never
- 36:17Speaker 2: fallen to the ground. It will not begin now. Do
- 36:20Speaker 2: you understand what I'm saying? That woman with the show
- 36:22Speaker 2: of blood said, if I can touch him. And she said,
- 36:27Speaker 2: I'm going to get my miracle. All right. She said
- 36:30Speaker 2: the following day she noticed she just woke up, was
- 36:32Speaker 2: doing other things that she was doing. Just woke up,
- 36:35Speaker 2: maybe all that was normal.
- 36:37Speaker 3: And somehow into the day she just remembered, aha, let
- 36:41Speaker 3: me check this thing.
- 36:42Speaker 2: How come I'm not feeling any discomfort? And she went
- 36:45Speaker 2: back home, off her clothes, checked. And she said the
- 36:49Speaker 2: skin was like the skin of a new baby. See?
- 36:56Speaker 2: That is not a way to display a powerful man
- 36:58Speaker 2: of God. It is to show you the nature of
- 37:01Speaker 2: the word. If you understand it. Do you understand? Let
- 37:13Speaker 2: me ask you a question. Do you understand that you
- 37:16Speaker 2: cannot die young I'm not saying you may not die young.
- 37:22Speaker 4: Hello.
- 37:26Speaker 2: Now, we're in a season in Nigeria that there is
- 37:30Speaker 2: scarcity of Naira notes based on governmental policy. True or
- 37:34Speaker 2: not true?
- 37:35Speaker 3: If I call you to my office and I say
- 37:38Speaker 3: I'm giving.
- 37:39Speaker 2: You one million Naira cash in this season, new notes,
- 37:45Speaker 2: one million Naira cash, I'm not making a transfer. I'm
- 37:47Speaker 2: giving you cash. One million naira. Do you know it
- 37:51Speaker 2: will take a level of demonic infiltration to get out
- 37:54Speaker 2: there and somebody still harassing you because you can't pay
- 37:57Speaker 2: a thousand naira cash. And that is exactly what is
- 38:01Speaker 2: happening to believers. The devil is harassing them of what
- 38:04Speaker 2: has been freely given.
- 38:07Speaker 3: And how come they cannot stand their ground?
- 38:09Speaker 2: Because they do not know. Neither do they understand.
- 38:13Speaker 3: So they die like men. They ought not to die.
- 38:20Speaker 3: Do you understand what I'm saying?
- 38:21Speaker 2: What you don't understand yet is that God did not
- 38:24Speaker 2: give some people short life. You don't understand. And we
- 38:32Speaker 2: found a way to always say, God, God brought this.
- 38:34Speaker 2: Like Anna said, for God has made me barren. And
- 38:38Speaker 2: we found a way to ascribe and accredit all bad.
- 38:41Speaker 3: And negative things to God.
- 38:43Speaker 2: It has pleased God to use this poverty to teach
- 38:45Speaker 2: me a lesson. God, poverty a lesson. Which God?
- 38:51Speaker 3: Is his word not sufficient enough? Am I saying that?
- 38:53Speaker 3: Let me give you the balance. Let me give you
- 38:56Speaker 3: the balance.
- 38:58Speaker 2: Deuteronomy chapter 8, verse 3. It says, alright, you shall
- 39:01Speaker 2: remember the way which the Lord your God led you
- 39:03Speaker 2: 40 years in the wilderness to test you, to prove you,
- 39:05Speaker 2: to humble you, to know what is in your heart.
- 39:07Speaker 3: Are you saying there's no wilderness experience?
- 39:09Speaker 2: There are!
- 39:09Speaker 3: There are! He said that he might make you know.
- 39:13Speaker 2: That man does not live by bread alone, but by
- 39:15Speaker 2: every word. If what you want to get from the experience,
- 39:20Speaker 2: is that the word of God is our anchor. It
- 39:22Speaker 2: means by the time that is already your lifestyle and
- 39:24Speaker 2: your understanding, you don't have to go to the wilderness.
- 39:29Speaker 2: You can sponsor yourself. to a prison that God is
- 39:31Speaker 2: not the one sending you to. And you can go
- 39:33Speaker 2: there in Jesus' name. And you think you are doing
- 39:36Speaker 2: it for righteousness, only for you to get to heaven.
- 39:38Speaker 2: And Lazarus will find out that you could be an
- 39:40Speaker 2: Abraham and see make it. You understand what I'm saying?
- 39:44Speaker 2: And even the Lazarus will still court him. yours.
- 39:51Speaker 3: Do you understand?
- 39:53Speaker 2: Do you understand?
- 39:55Speaker 3: Do you understand?
- 39:56Speaker 2: Put your right hand on your chest. Say it again.
- 39:58Speaker 3: The life of God is at work in me.
- 40:01Speaker 2: Come on, say it loud and clear. Say it loud
- 40:03Speaker 2: and clear. Come on, say it again. The life of
- 40:05Speaker 2: God is at work in me. There's nothing about my
- 40:09Speaker 2: life that brings death. The life of God is at
- 40:15Speaker 2: work in me. I am empowered, invigorated, filled with strength
- 40:21Speaker 2: of the Holy Ghost at work in me. I walk
- 40:25Speaker 2: in life. I walk in soundness of health. This is
- 40:29Speaker 2: my inheritance. Through Christ who strengthens me.
- 40:33Speaker 3: This is the life I live.
- 40:34Speaker 2: How come many of us have understood that you can
- 40:40Speaker 2: go to a place, dislodge the territories of darkness and
- 40:43Speaker 2: then the demons will now come back and afflict your children.
- 40:47Speaker 2: What kind of gospel have you received? Because you don't understand.
- 40:52Speaker 2: And each time you don't understand, you will die like men.
- 40:54Speaker 2: Do you get what I'm saying? Do you get what
- 40:58Speaker 2: I'm saying? Now listen, why do we struggle? But believe us,
- 41:03Speaker 2: and we are saying, this one is not doing this,
- 41:05Speaker 2: that one is not doing that. And sometimes I wonder,
- 41:07Speaker 2: I mean, as a pastor and as a leader, you
- 41:09Speaker 2: label other people for them to understand. I mean, look
- 41:12Speaker 2: at the case of that woman that had a cruise
- 41:13Speaker 2: of oil, that had a measure of wheat. She said,
- 41:16Speaker 2: all that I have left is for me to eat
- 41:18Speaker 2: and my son, and then die. And God said to Elijah,
- 41:21Speaker 2: I have sent, I have provided a woman that will
- 41:23Speaker 2: take care of you. And the woman God said will
- 41:25Speaker 2: take care of him, they have. And when she acted
- 41:31Speaker 2: in faith, she didn't die. When you fail to respond
- 41:37Speaker 2: to God's nudging, because you are afraid that when you
- 41:40Speaker 2: do something will not work, you don't know God. You
- 41:46Speaker 2: practically don't know the God you are talking about.
- 41:49Speaker 3: You don't know him. If you know him, you will.
- 41:51Speaker 2: Know that having started in the spirit, you cannot perfect
- 41:54Speaker 2: it in the flesh. You cannot. You don't understand. It's
- 41:58Speaker 2: because you don't understand God. It's because you don't understand.
- 42:02Speaker 2: You say, hey, how come I'm struggling with this? See?
- 42:09Speaker 2: What I found out is that the best moment for
- 42:12Speaker 2: miracles to spring forth is when the instruction of obedience
- 42:16Speaker 2: is not convenient. Just when it is not convenient is
- 42:22Speaker 2: when the participant will be few. Do you get what
- 42:28Speaker 2: I'm saying? Do you get what I'm saying? There are
- 42:34Speaker 2: many people in our churches who don't understand. Hence the
- 42:37Speaker 2: reason why they struggle. Hence the reason why many of
- 42:42Speaker 2: them are out of place. They do not understand. And
- 42:48Speaker 2: you've got to.
- 42:50Speaker 3: And you cannot understand without obedience.
- 42:56Speaker 2: See, let me tell you something. There are things that,
- 43:01Speaker 2: please follow me, look over everybody. Not even the greatest
- 43:05Speaker 2: demon can convince me against it. Look up. Alright?
- 43:12Speaker 3: Because this one, by the grace of God, have held it.
- 43:17Speaker 2: See. The Bible says, when a man lusts after another
- 43:22Speaker 2: man's wife, he lacks understanding. See, I have seen, I
- 43:28Speaker 2: have seen the strongest of all men The most handsome.
- 43:37Speaker 2: Waste away. And die like rats. Because they don't understand.
- 43:41Speaker 2: What the covenant of marriage is. And by themselves. They
- 43:46Speaker 2: will go. They have a beautiful wife. Beautiful children. And
- 43:49Speaker 2: they will go and invite intruders. And some of them
- 43:54Speaker 2: will bring sicknesses. To the home.
- 43:56Speaker 3: And some of them will bring curse. To the home.
- 43:59Speaker 2: And bring things. How do I help you now? Let
- 44:04Speaker 2: me share this with you. I'm speaking from depth of
- 44:09Speaker 2: pain for what the devil is doing to believers. There's
- 44:14Speaker 2: a story of a young boy. I share this story
- 44:15Speaker 2: with you. This boy has been rusticated at age 7
- 44:18Speaker 2: from 3 schools. Age 7, 3 schools. They will rusticate
- 44:23Speaker 2: him and tell him they don't want to see him.
- 44:25Speaker 2: Take your school fees and go back. Never come back
- 44:27Speaker 2: to our school. 3 schools, 7 year old boy. And
- 44:31Speaker 2: what was this boy doing? He will enter into When
- 44:36Speaker 2: he sees a girl in class step out to ease herself,
- 44:41Speaker 2: he will follow her. And several times they will catch
- 44:45Speaker 2: him in toilet touching girls. How did a seven-year-old boy
- 44:50Speaker 2: know about that? So a time came. Please follow what
- 44:53Speaker 2: I'm saying because some things are breaking tonight. I went
- 44:59Speaker 2: to their house and I knocked and knocked and nobody
- 45:03Speaker 2: was answering. So I just opened the door. And I
- 45:06Speaker 2: found his three elder brothers seated. And on the screen
- 45:13Speaker 2: of the family was pornography playing.
- 45:17Speaker 3: And the boy was there. Where is the dad? The
- 45:23Speaker 3: priest over the house. And where is the mother?
- 45:25Speaker 2: They've all gone after their man friends and their girl friends.
- 45:28Speaker 2: And now the children are praying for the enemy. Because
- 45:31Speaker 2: they do not understand. When you don't understand that marriage
- 45:35Speaker 2: is not about what pleases you, you will go after
- 45:38Speaker 2: your own loss and you will expose your children to
- 45:39Speaker 2: the death.
- 45:40Speaker 3: It will eat them like spark.
- 45:43Speaker 2: Marriage will never be attempted by those who want to
- 45:45Speaker 2: satisfy themselves.
- 45:47Speaker 3: It is a covenant.
- 45:48Speaker 2: It demands sacrifice. When you don't understand this, you will
- 45:51Speaker 2: bring yourself under curses and generations coming will be in
- 45:55Speaker 2: pain because you don't understand. Today they say it's valentine.
- 46:00Speaker 2: There are many young people going about with different packages
- 46:02Speaker 2: and all that.
- 46:03Speaker 3: They understand nothing about what this is.
- 46:07Speaker 2: They understand nothing. I say, people, which something do you prefer?
- 46:14Speaker 2: The something that was busy conquering, that killed a thousand
- 46:18Speaker 2: with the jawbone of an ass, or the one that
- 46:20Speaker 2: they could now tie with leaves? Delilah said, show me
- 46:25Speaker 2: where your greatest strength is, that I may afflict you.
- 46:27Speaker 2: It was clear, but he did not understand. So, I
- 46:34Speaker 2: share this story now. One day, the Bible says that
- 46:38Speaker 2: in the year that King go to battle, David stood
- 46:41Speaker 2: on his house top. Don't be less busy when you
- 46:44Speaker 2: should be busy, okay? This issue, many things hang around idleness.
- 46:53Speaker 2: And David stood on his house top and was looking.
- 46:57Speaker 2: Checking everywhere. He spotted a girl. Now, the girl he
- 47:02Speaker 2: saw was Bathsheba. And if I help you trace the history,
- 47:06Speaker 2: Bathsheba was the granddaughter of Ahithophel. Ahithophel happened to be
- 47:11Speaker 2: one of David's advisors. Okay? So it was more like
- 47:16Speaker 2: a man seeing his own granddaughter. That was what it
- 47:20Speaker 2: was like. But you see, when you stare at sin
- 47:23Speaker 2: for a while, the first thing it kills is your understanding.
- 47:27Speaker 2: Because everybody who is going into sin they always forget
- 47:32Speaker 2: the consequence. Are you following what I'm saying?
- 47:36Speaker 3: And he looked, and he said, invite her.
- 47:41Speaker 2: In the name that is above all names, you will
- 47:43Speaker 2: not fall. See, and when they invited her, she came.
- 47:53Speaker 2: You know, when a man of God that you have
- 47:55Speaker 2: been blessed by for the first time now invites you,
- 47:59Speaker 2: I feel so honored, sir.
- 48:01Speaker 3: So pleased to meet you, sir. So good to see you, sir.
- 48:03Speaker 2: But the man of God has fallen. And until David
- 48:08Speaker 2: began to say, how are you doing? So, this, this, this.
- 48:17Speaker 2: And somehow, by a skill he had to offer God psalms,
- 48:25Speaker 2: he has now become a poet and used that same
- 48:27Speaker 2: skill to convince her And he slept with her that night.
- 48:32Speaker 2: And she found out that she was pregnant. And then
- 48:36Speaker 2: she came back to the palace to see him. This
- 48:38Speaker 2: time around, no need for protocol. And the first thing
- 48:40Speaker 2: she said, Oh, David. What happened to the honor, your
- 48:46Speaker 2: royal majesty? His excellency, sir. When you fail to have understanding,
- 48:51Speaker 2: you lose your honor. See, What I'm even talking about
- 49:02Speaker 2: is small compared to eternity. That you don't want to
- 49:09Speaker 2: stand before Jesus only to be told that the girls
- 49:15Speaker 2: I planted under you, you hate them. Do you understand
- 49:22Speaker 2: what I'm saying? Understanding is bigger than you think.
- 49:31Speaker 3: It's not head knowledge.
- 49:33Speaker 2: When you find men of understanding, you will discern them
- 49:36Speaker 2: by their practice. Yes. It is their action, not what
- 49:41Speaker 2: they are. See, this one that people will sit down
- 49:43Speaker 2: and say, let me share this. When you find real understanding,
- 49:49Speaker 2: you'll see it in the fruit. See, when Uriah came,
- 49:53Speaker 2: when David said, go and call Uriah, his wife is
- 49:56Speaker 2: pregnant now. Because that girl, you need to know that
- 50:00Speaker 2: their wedding was just three months old. Uriah was not
- 50:04Speaker 2: supposed to go to battle, but the zeal of God. Anyways,
- 50:07Speaker 2: that's another lesson. Okay? I don't want to go into
- 50:13Speaker 2: that because if I was talking to a minister, I
- 50:14Speaker 2: would have shared a few things. When Uriah came, I
- 50:21Speaker 2: pray for everyone under the sound of my voice that
- 50:25Speaker 2: if there's any veil that is darkening your understanding and
- 50:30Speaker 2: putting you in the wrong part of history and destiny,
- 50:34Speaker 2: In the name that is above all names, they are
- 50:36Speaker 2: taken off. Say that amen with fire. When Uriah came,
- 50:44Speaker 2: and David prepared meat and drinks, and got him drunk,
- 50:54Speaker 2: and said, now you can go to your wife. In
- 50:58Speaker 2: his drunken state, he slept soundly. At the door of
- 51:04Speaker 2: the palace.
- 51:06Speaker 3: That was his wife.
- 51:08Speaker 2: The following day they came to tell David. That the
- 51:10Speaker 2: man who sent to his wife. To do house did
- 51:13Speaker 2: not go. David said oh you are not. Come on
- 51:16Speaker 2: you go. He said. He said. Joab my master. Is
- 51:22Speaker 2: in the tent. The ark of covenant. Is in the tent.
- 51:26Speaker 3: That is where God's presence is now. Is the tent.
- 51:30Speaker 2: How shall I now go in unto my wife. Between
- 51:37Speaker 2: that day now that Uriah was speaking and David.
- 51:39Speaker 3: Was talking, between Uriah and David, who is.
- 51:42Speaker 2: The man after God's heart? Are you saying that grace
- 51:46Speaker 2: may qualify you for certain things and yet that's not
- 51:48Speaker 2: your maturity? That's not your maturity.
- 51:50Speaker 3: It is not a sign that you are the best,
- 51:51Speaker 3: but grace just qualifies you.
- 51:54Speaker 2: And that's why we are not men who brag and
- 51:57Speaker 2: are proud. When it is grace, it is grace. But
- 52:00Speaker 2: there is the walk through grace. Do you understand what
- 52:04Speaker 2: I'm saying?
- 52:08Speaker 3: And I was reading the story.
- 52:09Speaker 2: And I was asking, who then is the man after God? See,
- 52:12Speaker 2: there are strong people who are not willing to carry
- 52:13Speaker 2: what you carry. But it does not mean they are
- 52:16Speaker 2: not better. Grace qualifies you beyond bull. And that's just
- 52:23Speaker 2: the irony.
- 52:25Speaker 3: Everybody is just calling, oh, we want to invite a
- 52:27Speaker 3: post with this and that.
- 52:29Speaker 2: The work of grace. We will check for your understanding
- 52:33Speaker 2: when we come closer. And we see your life. Do
- 52:38Speaker 2: you get what I'm saying? I feel a bit more
- 52:42Speaker 2: need to stay a bit on the subject of marriage.
- 52:48Speaker 2: Not because... See, there are people who are going into
- 52:52Speaker 2: what they do not understand. Number one, if you marry
- 52:58Speaker 2: someone who is not convinced about the uniqueness of God's
- 53:01Speaker 2: grace upon your life, you don't understand. You don't understand.
- 53:04Speaker 2: You will spend your entire life trying to convince the
- 53:07Speaker 2: fellow that God is with you. It's not worth it.
- 53:09Speaker 3: It's not God.
- 53:10Speaker 2: Okay? Number two, if you have to marry someone that
- 53:18Speaker 2: your purpose on earth has to die for the marriage
- 53:20Speaker 2: to work, you don't understand. You are as good as
- 53:22Speaker 2: dead also. Because that is your final address. That's what
- 53:26Speaker 2: you are living for. And you have canceled it. Never
- 53:30Speaker 2: beg anyone that it is true God said they are
- 53:32Speaker 2: your spouse. Listen though, if somebody have to walk down
- 53:36Speaker 2: the altar with you and they are second guessing, you
- 53:38Speaker 2: will spend all your days convincing them it was true.
- 53:41Speaker 2: Because little argument that should be settled will not be settled.
- 53:44Speaker 2: Because they keep saying maybe we should not have married.
- 53:48Speaker 2: Do you understand what I'm saying? Sometimes when some people
- 53:54Speaker 2: say they want to go, let them go. You have
- 54:02Speaker 2: to let them go. You know why? You have to
- 54:05Speaker 2: let them go. Because even if this thing called the
- 54:13Speaker 2: will of God was them, the moment they fail to
- 54:16Speaker 2: recognize it is you, God is not obligated to trap
- 54:19Speaker 2: your destiny.
- 54:20Speaker 3: He takes that grace.
- 54:20Speaker 2: And can't another. Do you understand what I'm saying?
- 54:25Speaker 3: But this is it. My wife is a marriage counselor.
- 54:32Speaker 3: That's a profession.
- 54:34Speaker 2: And By being a husband, I've seen a few things.
- 54:45Speaker 2: Do you know the reason why we could have the
- 54:53Speaker 2: size of condition we have in the pardon? And I
- 54:57Speaker 2: could tell my wife once that God has said, it's
- 55:01Speaker 2: time to move. And it was never an argument. Because
- 55:07Speaker 2: we didn't force it in marriage. If she has said,
- 55:13Speaker 2: I don't think you are the one. And I say
- 55:14Speaker 2: you are the one. Then go and pray. Somebody is
- 55:17Speaker 2: going to pray and come back ten times within two years.
- 55:22Speaker 2: You are not the one. I am feeling this. Wrong.
- 55:27Speaker 3: Because you will fight over every other thing.
- 55:30Speaker 2: And if this word is a deliverance to someone, today
- 55:32Speaker 2: Valentine is the appropriate day to call it quits. Some
- 55:38Speaker 2: things are not worth begging for. Do you get what
- 55:40Speaker 2: I'm saying? Don't marry a celeb. Marry your size. You know, see,
- 55:56Speaker 2: let me tell you something. There was a time I
- 55:59Speaker 2: saw a sister. And I honestly felt we liked each other.
- 56:03Speaker 2: Do you know that kind of thing? She was just
- 56:04Speaker 2: being nice. But I didn't know. And she said, no, no,
- 56:11Speaker 2: you can't be the will of God for me. She
- 56:13Speaker 2: did not say you are not. She said you can't be.
- 56:17Speaker 2: You don't beg over such matter. Take it as, let
- 56:21Speaker 2: me leave it. Maybe God has used me to help
- 56:26Speaker 2: someone tonight. I don't know. And maybe the person is
- 56:30Speaker 2: not here. But there are things you do differently when
- 56:36Speaker 2: you have understanding. Do you get what I'm saying? My
- 56:45Speaker 2: wife does not have to police me up and down
- 56:48Speaker 2: and check my phone.
- 56:49Speaker 3: Who is he chatting with?
- 56:54Speaker 2: Because I understand. I understand. Do you get what I'm saying? See,
- 57:06Speaker 2: you can teach your children Bible. And they still become
- 57:09Speaker 2: sons of Belial because your life taught them otherwise. And
- 57:15Speaker 2: I know that family devotion, as powerful as it is,
- 57:17Speaker 2: is not enough in raising children. Example is the most
- 57:20Speaker 2: important thing. So my daughter is just one year plus now,
- 57:24Speaker 2: maybe a year and two months. And when you say,
- 57:26Speaker 2: pray for me, she quickly put her hand on my head. Why?
- 57:32Speaker 3: From the womb, that's been the last time.
- 57:35Speaker 2: Oh, right. She see me lay hands on her. I
- 57:38Speaker 2: lay hands on her. And she's wondering what's happening. And
- 57:41Speaker 2: she see me lay hands on her mom again. And
- 57:43Speaker 2: she's wondering what's happening. She say, okay, it's in on
- 57:45Speaker 2: my mom. And then when I come back to her,
- 57:47Speaker 2: she no longer fight.
- 57:48Speaker 3: She say, okay, okay.
- 57:48Speaker 2: And I take, I take, I take. And I go
- 57:50Speaker 2: back to the mom and say, I take. And she
- 57:51Speaker 2: sees that happening every now and then. Every now and then.
- 57:53Speaker 2: So when I say, now pray for me. So she
- 57:56Speaker 2: knows pray. The power of examples. If there's anyone under
- 58:05Speaker 2: the sound of my voice and you are coming from
- 58:09Speaker 2: backgrounds where marriage was bastardized, abused, insulted, and your mind
- 58:18Speaker 2: somehow is messed up. You don't even think good men
- 58:20Speaker 2: exist or good men exist. And you, in the name
- 58:24Speaker 2: that is above all names, I stretch my hands towards
- 58:26Speaker 2: you and I decree those chains and shackles are broken.
- 58:31Speaker 3: You will not repeat patterns.
- 58:34Speaker 2: In the name of Jesus.
- 58:37Speaker 3: You will not repeat patterns.
- 58:39Speaker 2: In the name of Jesus. I found out through study
- 58:43Speaker 2: that patterns are not automatic in repetition. They are not.
- 58:47Speaker 2: Men have to position themselves for the screams to flow.
- 58:49Speaker 2: If I don't position myself there, it will not flow.
- 58:53Speaker 2: You can come from a very wrong and defective setting
- 58:57Speaker 2: and emerge like you are not from there. I'm telling you.
- 59:01Speaker 2: You emerge like Everything, check.
- 59:03Speaker 3: Spirituality, check.
- 59:04Speaker 2: Good home, check. Finance, check. Do you understand what I'm saying?
- 59:11Speaker 2: That your parent at this is not automatic. And that's
- 59:14Speaker 2: why I'm asking you. Do you understand the word? That
- 59:17Speaker 2: God has given us everything that pertains to life. That's
- 59:23Speaker 2: a very deep word. And godliness. He said, blessed be
- 59:26Speaker 2: God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who
- 59:28Speaker 2: has blessed us.
- 59:29Speaker 3: With all, not the parts, all spiritual.
- 59:32Speaker 2: Blessings, all. So when I get to a territory, and
- 59:40Speaker 2: then they say, there are demonic this, this in the territory,
- 59:43Speaker 2: I don't start shivering, and then I start carrying pure water,
- 59:46Speaker 2: and say, I.
- 59:46Speaker 3: Bless pure water with fire, I pray.
- 59:50Speaker 2: So I understand the principle of light shining and darkness
- 59:52Speaker 2: cannot withstand. And I know all I have to do
- 59:54Speaker 2: is to step in Did you understand that? Step in.
- 1:00:01Speaker 3: Now, people ask me, how do you do the things
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: you do?
- 1:00:03Speaker 2: I mean, the steps of faith that you take. Should
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: I really share stories? You don't sound like you're interested.
- 1:00:14Speaker 2: I'm looking at which of, which of. One of the
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: revelations I have is that Your smartness as a person
- 1:00:32Speaker 2: cannot bring you out of poverty. Now, I understand it.
- 1:00:36Speaker 2: That it is the blessings of God that makes rich
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: and had no son. So, see, I'm talking about me.
- 1:00:49Speaker 2: Do you hear what I'm saying? I found out And
- 1:00:56Speaker 2: there are things I do and I don't do them
- 1:01:01Speaker 2: just because I love God alone. I do them because
- 1:01:04Speaker 2: I understand the principles. Do you understand what I'm saying?
- 1:01:14Speaker 2: There are parents that give birth to children. And at
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: a certain point, God called the children and said, I'm
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: going to use you for my glory.
- 1:01:23Speaker 3: And they said, No, no, no, no. I sponsored you
- 1:01:26Speaker 3: to school and this and that.
- 1:01:28Speaker 2: And the enemy took advantage of those occasions and killed
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: the children.
- 1:01:34Speaker 3: So I.
- 1:01:42Speaker 2: See, when God said to Abraham, get thee out of
- 1:01:45Speaker 2: your father's house and your kingdom to a land I
- 1:01:47Speaker 2: will show you. And I will make your name great.
- 1:01:50Speaker 2: It was not a very simple commandment. Are you aware?
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: Do you know what it means for a man to
- 1:01:55Speaker 2: be settled in a place, blessed in the place, established
- 1:01:59Speaker 2: in the place, probably had his own house, and.
- 1:02:04Speaker 3: The only thing he didn't have was his own.
- 1:02:08Speaker 2: And not like Abraham didn't have the capacity to impregnate
- 1:02:11Speaker 2: other women.
- 1:02:12Speaker 3: He could.
- 1:02:13Speaker 2: At least he showed it. But God said, get out.
- 1:02:18Speaker 2: Anytime God gives you an instruction, the blessing is where
- 1:02:21Speaker 2: the water is from. Amen.
- 1:02:25Speaker 3: Listen, this was how the Israelites moved in the wilderness.
- 1:02:30Speaker 2: The pillar of cloud led them by day and the
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: pillar of fire by night. Let me give you a
- 1:02:41Speaker 2: simple meaning of this so you can understand. During the
- 1:02:48Speaker 2: day in the wilderness was very, very harsh temperature. Temperature.
- 1:02:55Speaker 2: And what the pillar of cloud does is to not
- 1:03:00Speaker 2: just lead them, but to restrict their rays. And as
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: long as you follow that pillar of cloud, you are
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: shielded from the heat of the earth. And at night
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: when there's extreme cold, because you have two extreme conditions,
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: then there's a pillar of fire around where they can
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: camp and have warmth. Do you get what I'm saying?
- 1:03:20Speaker 2: Sometimes you notice that you are in a place and
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: suddenly things were fine and you have lost your peace.
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: You are no longer convenient. The pillar has moved.
- 1:03:30Speaker 3: Don't look at the world you built. When it moves, move!
- 1:03:37Speaker 2: Because the next thing you begin to face is it.
- 1:03:43Speaker 2: You just notice that what you have built or what
- 1:03:46Speaker 2: God has helped you to build, you now need your
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: own strength.
- 1:03:49Speaker 4: Strength.
- 1:03:50Speaker 2: To sustain them. Do you get what I'm saying?
- 1:03:54Speaker 3: You need your own what? Your own intelligence.
- 1:03:56Speaker 2: And it will die in your hands. And at night
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: when it's cold everywhere. So what do you notice? That
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: sometimes everything looks fine at face value. But then you
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: have lost your peace. God is saying it's time to
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: take a step. And every time there is a need
- 1:04:15Speaker 2: for you to shift levels. One of the signs God
- 1:04:18Speaker 2: will always give, among the things he will say. In fact,
- 1:04:20Speaker 2: most of the time before God speaks, is that he
- 1:04:22Speaker 2: withdraws that sukkah. You just notice that. I'm no longer
- 1:04:26Speaker 2: feeling convenient. Sometimes it can be a relationship.
- 1:04:31Speaker 3: You just notice that.
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: This is not it.
- 1:04:37Speaker 3: This is not it.
- 1:04:38Speaker 2: Now, this I'm saying, I'm not empowering breakup. What Papa
- 1:04:43Speaker 2: said today was confirming. I'm not confirming a thing. I'm
- 1:04:47Speaker 2: not confirming anything. I'm speaking the word of God as
- 1:04:49Speaker 2: it is. So let God lead you. Do you understand
- 1:04:52Speaker 2: what I'm saying?
- 1:04:53Speaker 3: Follow me and say yes.
- 1:04:55Speaker 2: Did you hear what Papa said? That message was for us.
- 1:04:59Speaker 2: Because as the God that I knew, I told God
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: to put my word in Papa's mouth. It's between you
- 1:05:03Speaker 2: and God, my sister and my brother. Are you following
- 1:05:06Speaker 2: what I'm saying here? When you have this understanding, it
- 1:05:11Speaker 2: will speak in every aspect of your life. Before there
- 1:05:15Speaker 2: was any book on how to hear God, Abraham heard God.
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: Before there was any material on how to be led
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: by the Holy Spirit, he was led by God. How?
- 1:05:24Speaker 2: It is through this technology of peace.
- 1:05:31Speaker 3: Please be seated. And sometimes you observe.
- 1:05:36Speaker 2: That as you begin to come into maturity, God will
- 1:05:41Speaker 2: not necessarily have to open all his mouth. to say
- 1:05:44Speaker 2: things sometimes. It just looks in your direction and withdraws
- 1:05:47Speaker 2: certain pieces. You also notice that God is not convenient
- 1:05:50Speaker 2: with this. Sometimes it may, do you get what I'm saying?
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: And one of the things you will never find me
- 1:05:57Speaker 2: is to sit down where people are talking to other people.
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: Don't just come and say, what do you think about
- 1:06:02Speaker 2: that man of God? See, the issue is that you've
- 1:06:06Speaker 2: just lost the relationship with me. Because I'm not going to,
- 1:06:11Speaker 2: I will not give the little time.
- 1:06:14Speaker 3: Do you hear what I'm saying?
- 1:06:15Speaker 2: To confess. And then we are talking, ah, that man,
- 1:06:17Speaker 2: don't mind him. The way he's doing ministry. You think
- 1:06:20Speaker 2: God is with him. How do you confidently stay there?
- 1:06:24Speaker 2: Because you don't understand.
- 1:06:25Speaker 3: You've lost your peace, but you are still there.
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: God has moved. God has moved. I remember I came
- 1:06:35Speaker 2: back from a meeting one night. We were talking. We
- 1:06:36Speaker 2: were in the house. We had some ministers. We had
- 1:06:39Speaker 2: some things.
- 1:06:39Speaker 3: What was happening? And then we were just talking. I
- 1:06:42Speaker 3: sat down and was tired, but I was listening.
- 1:06:47Speaker 2: If there's anything I know well, I am not obligated
- 1:06:50Speaker 2: to have a response to every discussion. I can sincerely
- 1:06:55Speaker 2: listen and look like a fool. Because people say, ah, Apostle,
- 1:07:00Speaker 2: you should have a response. It is beyond my pay grade.
- 1:07:04Speaker 2: Who has made you a judge over another man's servant?
- 1:07:06Speaker 2: Because to his master he rises and to his master
- 1:07:07Speaker 2: he falls. That's true.
- 1:07:11Speaker 3: No comment.
- 1:07:14Speaker 2: My wife is here. She said, have you seen this?
- 1:07:18Speaker 3: No comment. I said, have you seen this? No comment.
- 1:07:23Speaker 2: We went somewhere, something happened. First thing first, we are
- 1:07:27Speaker 2: not going to discuss this. My wife is here. We
- 1:07:32Speaker 2: will not talk about this. That your husband and wife
- 1:07:35Speaker 2: does not mean you should gossip.
- 1:07:37Speaker 3: Gossip is still gossip.
- 1:07:39Speaker 2: And gossip is when you have to discuss people and
- 1:07:42Speaker 2: the intention is to.
- 1:07:44Speaker 3: Amplify their weakness.
- 1:07:46Speaker 2: Come and meet my wife and say your husband said
- 1:07:48Speaker 2: it to you. We laugh. It goes to me too. No.
- 1:07:53Speaker 2: I don't. I really chat. You say this is. I don't. See.
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: Can I show you a scripture? Let me show you
- 1:08:06Speaker 2: a scripture. Turn your Bibles to James chapter number 1.
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: James chapter number 1. When you see this scripture today,
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: are you following what I'm saying? Before I show you
- 1:08:25Speaker 2: this scripture, let me tell you one of the decisions
- 1:08:29Speaker 2: I've made in life. Number one, there's no body on
- 1:08:33Speaker 2: earth that can get me offended and I will not
- 1:08:37Speaker 2: be blessed by you. Eh? When I see incompatibility, I
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: can give space. But you are still a blessing to me.
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: And that blessing will be for life. Nobody can convince
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: me about your weaknesses and say this person is decent.
- 1:08:56Speaker 2: Because those people who are speaking those things are being blessed.
- 1:09:00Speaker 2: Have you seen people talk people only to go to
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: the person in the meeting and see them in front?
- 1:09:05Speaker 2: And you are warned? Man. Apostle Lazarus, have you heard
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: what this man of God said about you? Wow. Probably
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: he didn't know me. Tomorrow you still hear me listen
- 1:09:19Speaker 2: to his message. He has something to offer me. And
- 1:09:23Speaker 2: his opinion about me notwithstanding, I will hear you. You
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: will bless me. It's not about you. You just speak.
- 1:09:30Speaker 3: I will listen.
- 1:09:34Speaker 2: How do you get to the point that you're offended
- 1:09:36Speaker 2: and you still live life? You're offended at the man
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: of God and you now insulate yourself from what is flowing.
- 1:09:45Speaker 3: It takes communication.
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: Let me leave it. Don't seem like you are getting me.
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: But let me show you this scripture. James chapter number 1.
- 1:09:59Speaker 2: Are you ready for this scripture? And let me jump
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: a bit. Let's go to the.
- 1:10:10Speaker 3: James chapter number 1.
- 1:10:14Speaker 2: Let's start from verse 26. Verse 26. Now, let me
- 1:10:21Speaker 2: quickly say this before you open. James 1, 26. Now,
- 1:10:26Speaker 2: there are people who are natural introverts. And that means
- 1:10:30Speaker 2: that they are not natural talkers. Okay? But sometimes you
- 1:10:35Speaker 2: can be introverted, but there's so much noise in your soul.
- 1:10:41Speaker 2: Do you get what I'm saying? I'm going to teach
- 1:10:43Speaker 2: you the difference. James 1, let's look at verse 26. Now,
- 1:10:51Speaker 2: he said, if anyone amongst you seem to be religious,
- 1:10:55Speaker 2: and pray do not his tongue, but deceive his own heart,
- 1:11:00Speaker 2: the man's religion is in vain. So, if people are claiming, ah,
- 1:11:05Speaker 2: I'm religious, I'm this and that. See, at this point
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: in my life, hmm? I do not nod to what
- 1:11:23Speaker 2: people are saying because it is correct. I have found
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: out that somebody can be saying correct things, but the
- 1:11:35Speaker 2: usage of the correct things is to actually stab somebody
- 1:11:39Speaker 2: in the crowd. It is only a defiant those who
- 1:11:44Speaker 2: don't know the story. You don't understand what I'm saying.
- 1:11:50Speaker 2: They are the ones who are innocent. But meanwhile, that
- 1:11:53Speaker 2: is a sword meant to also kill somebody. So, I
- 1:11:59Speaker 2: try to stay clear. And that's why you cannot pastor
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: successfully if you are too emotional. Because anytime they hear you,
- 1:12:09Speaker 2: people know that, who is pastor fighting again? Have you
- 1:12:12Speaker 2: been to such places before? You hear the man of God,
- 1:12:15Speaker 2: you are confused. You should know that what he is
- 1:12:17Speaker 2: saying is for somebody there.
- 1:12:19Speaker 3: Who is it again?
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: You say, I will hear the Jesus later. There is
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: such a thing as understanding that the power of life
- 1:12:28Speaker 2: and death is in the tongue. And there are things
- 1:12:31Speaker 2: that you cannot say. No comment. And this man of God,
- 1:12:39Speaker 2: they are calling forth miracle money.
- 1:12:41Speaker 3: What do you think, Apostle?
- 1:12:43Speaker 2: No comment. And, you know, sometimes when we have School
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: of Ministry and we have training sessions. And sometimes people
- 1:12:53Speaker 2: ask me questions and say, Principal, we're asking you a question, this, this, this, this.
- 1:12:57Speaker 2: I say, what's this, this, this? I tell them, I
- 1:12:59Speaker 2: don't know. I tell them, Pastor, it does not mean
- 1:13:02Speaker 2: I should know everything.
- 1:13:04Speaker 3: There's only one God who is the one who knows
- 1:13:05Speaker 3: all things.
- 1:13:07Speaker 2: I don't know. And sometimes the I don't know means
- 1:13:09Speaker 2: I don't know where you are asking from. So, I
- 1:13:13Speaker 2: don't know. So, I don't know.
- 1:13:19Speaker 3: Pastor, what do you think?
- 1:13:21Speaker 2: I know that. This man of God did this. He said,
- 1:13:24Speaker 2: what God cannot do also exists. It's not a biblical statement.
- 1:13:26Speaker 3: What do you think?
- 1:13:28Speaker 2: I don't know. Both of them, as long as what
- 1:13:33Speaker 2: they are saying is the truth in their different messages,
- 1:13:35Speaker 2: they can bless me. When they decide to become and
- 1:13:38Speaker 2: begin to hit their heads together, I'm not going to
- 1:13:40Speaker 2: be there. Do you hear what I'm saying? There are
- 1:13:43Speaker 2: information you don't need. Once you have them, They've quarantined
- 1:13:48Speaker 2: you from being blessed. Have you heard this man of God?
- 1:13:53Speaker 2: Hold your peace.
- 1:13:56Speaker 3: Because those who are telling.
- 1:13:57Speaker 2: You that they have found coping mechanism, they know how
- 1:14:00Speaker 2: to know it and.
- 1:14:01Speaker 3: Still be blessed.
- 1:14:01Speaker 2: You may not know how to know it and be blessed.
- 1:14:05Speaker 2: I know it. Hold your peace. That was what happened
- 1:14:07Speaker 2: to Elisha. Do you know that the Lord is about
- 1:14:09Speaker 2: to take your master from you? He said, I know.
- 1:14:12Speaker 2: Hold your peace. You must know how to Do you
- 1:14:17Speaker 2: know that there can be an operation of God in
- 1:14:20Speaker 2: the body of Christ? Inspiring believers, prophets, teachers, and apostles
- 1:14:25Speaker 2: in operations of wealth and what believers can do. Like Daniel,
- 1:14:29Speaker 2: showing them that we can do this and this is
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: where wealth is. Teachers bring balance to the move. But
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: sometimes teachers are the first to die out in a move.
- 1:14:40Speaker 2: Because you can begin to teach theory and live the spirit. Listen,
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: when you live the spirit... you will fight what the
- 1:14:48Speaker 2: Spirit is doing with the word you know yesterday. You
- 1:14:51Speaker 2: will use what God said to fight what God is saying.
- 1:14:55Speaker 2: You will use what God did to fight what God
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: is doing. Because when I see people that the way
- 1:15:01Speaker 2: they communicate their own truth is to attack something in
- 1:15:03Speaker 2: the body of Christ, I don't follow.
- 1:15:05Speaker 3: Them, no matter who they are. Sometimes God is doing something.
- 1:15:11Speaker 2: Are you aware there are offices that are difficult to
- 1:15:13Speaker 2: stand in? Because God is going to use you in
- 1:15:16Speaker 2: a way that will bring insults. Particularly because the body
- 1:15:19Speaker 2: is not aware yet. And say, hey, all these new prophets,
- 1:15:23Speaker 2: this is what they are prophesying now. When they prophesy this,
- 1:15:25Speaker 2: you know that there is poverty. This struggle is real.
- 1:15:28Speaker 2: You now go and share. And say, you don't mind them.
- 1:15:31Speaker 2: You don't know what you are talking about. Are you
- 1:15:34Speaker 2: saying it can't be God? Are you honestly telling me
- 1:15:37Speaker 2: it can't be God? You don't have an understanding. That
- 1:15:39Speaker 2: in the move of God, God is not doing one thing.
- 1:15:42Speaker 2: He's doing many things that will complement each other. If
- 1:15:45Speaker 2: men will not be carried away and humble themselves. So
- 1:15:48Speaker 2: you wonder why fathers in the body of Christ are
- 1:15:51Speaker 2: not quick to give their own part to any statement
- 1:15:54Speaker 2: or things. Because they are men of understanding. People of
- 1:15:57Speaker 2: understanding don't speak in a hurry. And that's why it
- 1:16:05Speaker 2: is always the body fighting the body. Because the devil
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: knows that knowledge puffs up. Knowledge puffs up.
- 1:16:15Speaker 3: It's proud.
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: It's proud. Can I tell you this? That I have
- 1:16:20Speaker 2: friends who are operating in dimensions that I'm not operating in.
- 1:16:29Speaker 2: And I am honest to know that sometimes I don't
- 1:16:31Speaker 2: understand the dimension. But I know it's biblical. And how
- 1:16:35Speaker 2: do I know? I take the fruited base. Do you
- 1:16:39Speaker 2: understand what I'm saying? I have one of my friends
- 1:16:43Speaker 2: in the east. When you go to their ministry... And
- 1:16:48Speaker 2: those boys are praying. They are praying like machine guns. Now,
- 1:16:53Speaker 2: I may teach simply and all those things, but I
- 1:16:57Speaker 2: have a reverence to understand that the idea of God
- 1:17:02Speaker 2: is that for the people to have what He wants
- 1:17:06Speaker 2: to give them in that dispensation, you must drink of
- 1:17:08Speaker 2: this well, that well, that well, that well. It's a convergence.
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: Let me take it a step higher. That God can
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: even lead to a conference. That a speaker in the
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: conference is coming to address a path you have not
- 1:17:26Speaker 2: submitted to God about. And yet it's God. And yet
- 1:17:30Speaker 2: you are the organizer of the conference. Because one of
- 1:17:36Speaker 2: the grace of God upon my life is the grace
- 1:17:38Speaker 2: of an authenticator. Because if you see him do something,
- 1:17:43Speaker 2: it's genuine. It's a dimension of grace. I know that
- 1:17:50Speaker 2: I cannot say many things against people. Do you understand
- 1:17:55Speaker 2: what I'm saying? Then let me leave it. And I'm
- 1:18:01Speaker 2: saying this because we are in that phase of the
- 1:18:06Speaker 2: move of God where there will be new manifestation of
- 1:18:09Speaker 2: new offices that you may fight. Because now what you
- 1:18:15Speaker 2: have is the letter Achillet, not the spirit that gives life.
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: One day I asked God, why do we, and there
- 1:18:31Speaker 2: might be some of you that God is actually calling now.
- 1:18:34Speaker 2: I say, I'm calling you. This is my call upon
- 1:18:35Speaker 2: your life. You say, God is calling me. He's not church.
- 1:18:39Speaker 2: He's just to deceive yourself.
- 1:18:43Speaker 3: Why do we have many churches?
- 1:18:44Speaker 2: Why can't we just have one church? It would be dangerous.
- 1:18:46Speaker 2: It would be dangerous. one church cannot save everybody. There
- 1:18:53Speaker 2: are people that where they are coming from, where they
- 1:18:55Speaker 2: can identify with from because of where they are coming
- 1:18:57Speaker 2: from is closer. There are people that where they are
- 1:19:00Speaker 2: coming from, where they can identify because of where they
- 1:19:02Speaker 2: are coming from is deeper life. Do you hear what
- 1:19:05Speaker 2: I'm saying? The reason is because God is not saving
- 1:19:07Speaker 2: just one person. is not doing one thing. When you
- 1:19:11Speaker 2: have understanding, you become. Let me hold back on a
- 1:19:21Speaker 2: few things. The power of life and death is in
- 1:19:29Speaker 2: the tongue. When you understand that statement, you will never say,
- 1:19:36Speaker 2: see my life. Some people will even say they are
- 1:19:40Speaker 2: just a useless person. How can you say that? Some
- 1:19:43Speaker 2: people will even say I'm not fine. Say I'm not fine.
- 1:19:47Speaker 2: Have you seen where the woman is passing by the
- 1:19:48Speaker 2: mirror in the car? It's parked.
- 1:19:50Speaker 3: She needs to be seated inside a tinted car.
- 1:19:53Speaker 2: And the lady is passing. They are not sure. In fact,
- 1:20:03Speaker 2: I've seen a girl say that she cannot marry a
- 1:20:06Speaker 2: guy who is too fine. What kind of thing? A
- 1:20:11Speaker 2: married girl is too fine. Say, so that I will
- 1:20:13Speaker 2: not be struggling for him. That's an understanding. You are
- 1:20:18Speaker 2: in the internal envelope, you are married because you have
- 1:20:21Speaker 2: some blend of wariness. You are married because you are
- 1:20:24Speaker 2: not fine. And some people have come to the point
- 1:20:31Speaker 2: where they don't believe that good things of life is
- 1:20:33Speaker 2: for them. They believe God, they pray sincerely. You wonder
- 1:20:37Speaker 2: why their life is not changing. They cannot step into
- 1:20:39Speaker 2: high places. They just cannot. They've been wired in a
- 1:20:43Speaker 2: way where they believe they are to eat from the
- 1:20:44Speaker 2: crumbs that fall off the table. That's their wiring. And
- 1:20:48Speaker 2: who wired them so? Themselves. By believing lies.
- 1:20:52Speaker 3: Some, for the kind of school they came up.
- 1:20:53Speaker 2: From, say, who is doing well from the school I
- 1:20:55Speaker 2: came up from?
- 1:20:56Speaker 3: It's not your school. It's the grace on you. You
- 1:21:01Speaker 3: talk about, oh, God is bringing believers to high places.
- 1:21:03Speaker 2: They say, oh, yes. But somewhere in their mind, they
- 1:21:06Speaker 2: are saying, except me. Or except people like us. That
- 1:21:12Speaker 2: God wants to give me the best things in life.
- 1:21:15Speaker 2: It's not a joke. It's... There's a song that was
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: coined from the book of Job. When Job lost everything,
- 1:21:34Speaker 2: he said, can a man receive good every day and
- 1:21:36Speaker 2: not take evil of one day? That's not scripture. So
- 1:21:41Speaker 2: what that does is that somehow it prepares your mind
- 1:21:44Speaker 2: that things are not fine. If things are fine, don't
- 1:21:46Speaker 2: be too happy because one day everything will just scatter.
- 1:21:48Speaker 3: No!
- 1:21:49Speaker 2: It will not be scattered.
- 1:21:51Speaker 3: Do you get what I'm saying? You don't have to.
- 1:21:54Speaker 2: Bury your children.
- 1:21:55Speaker 3: You don't have to bury your spouse.
- 1:21:59Speaker 2: The righteous man, he has this, it's like a tree
- 1:22:02Speaker 2: planted by the river of waters. The leaf don't go
- 1:22:03Speaker 2: with that. His children surround his table like holy branches.
- 1:22:07Speaker 2: They don't with that. Say, how can things be sweet
- 1:22:13Speaker 2: like that, but like that, like that? One day, you
- 1:22:15Speaker 2: just scatter. You believe folklore tales. And just sometimes when
- 1:22:24Speaker 2: you blame pastors, how can this person be your church
- 1:22:27Speaker 2: and this thing is actually happening to the fellow? Yes,
- 1:22:29Speaker 2: the fellow is hearing what we are preaching, but do
- 1:22:31Speaker 2: you understand? Do they understand? And as I engage people one-on-one,
- 1:22:38Speaker 2: many times I meet surprises. That what this fellow is
- 1:22:42Speaker 2: saying is opposite to what we thought for four weeks
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: in series. How do you judge and your mindset is different?
- 1:22:50Speaker 2: Because we are not barren. We never go back to it.
- 1:22:53Speaker 2: 99% of those who are judging never go back What's
- 1:23:00Speaker 2: the point? Do you get what I'm saying? Your life
- 1:23:05Speaker 2: is sweet. It is not going to become bitter. I
- 1:23:08Speaker 2: didn't hear that, amen. I didn't hear that, amen. Now,
- 1:23:13Speaker 2: get this right. One of the things God wants to
- 1:23:16Speaker 2: bless you with is the grace of early establishment. Hey,
- 1:23:24Speaker 2: do you get what I'm saying? You don't have to
- 1:23:28Speaker 2: cross 40 for your life to be good, sir. Don't
- 1:23:30Speaker 2: you get it? Do you understand what I'm saying? If
- 1:23:39Speaker 2: there's anyone here that the devil is fighting with the
- 1:23:41Speaker 2: thought of death, let me help you. Close your eyes. Everybody.
- 1:23:52Speaker 2: Share the devil has been fighting with the thought of death.
- 1:23:55Speaker 2: Now let's take the battle to the gates. Has God
- 1:24:00Speaker 2: shown you a bit of his plan for you in
- 1:24:05Speaker 2: the next couple of years? If there's anyone there, God
- 1:24:07Speaker 2: has shown you something about your future at some point
- 1:24:10Speaker 2: in your life. Let me see your answer. Something that
- 1:24:12Speaker 2: has not come to pass. He showed you something. Raise
- 1:24:14Speaker 2: your hand up. Raise it up very well. Raise it
- 1:24:16Speaker 2: up very well. Now, the question is, did God lie?
- 1:24:21Speaker 2: Did he show you what doesn't exist? Is the same
- 1:24:24Speaker 2: God saying you now have to die before getting it?
- 1:24:28Speaker 2: The devil is a bastard. The devil is a bastard.
- 1:24:35Speaker 2: Look over everybody. Stand up everybody. Stand up on your feet.
- 1:24:39Speaker 3: Stand up with audacity, courage, and every audacity.
- 1:24:44Speaker 2: Listen, listen, listen. It is still a sign of wrong
- 1:24:48Speaker 2: doctrine for you to believe having said this thing in church.
- 1:24:51Speaker 2: Once you are now alone, the devil will now come.
- 1:24:53Speaker 3: That's the height of embarrassment to.
- 1:24:56Speaker 2: The power that is at work in you. Do you
- 1:24:59Speaker 2: care what I'm saying here? No devil can come near you.
- 1:25:06Speaker 2: I went to minister 13 years ago in a meeting.
- 1:25:12Speaker 2: And a girl was under the power of God. She
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: was screaming.
- 1:25:16Speaker 3: Screaming and said, I want to be delivered. She said they.
- 1:25:20Speaker 2: Told her before I came that the man of God
- 1:25:23Speaker 2: was coming down for a meeting. Before I was even invited.
- 1:25:26Speaker 2: And she said they sent her to come and send
- 1:25:28Speaker 2: me on a journey of no return. I said, so
- 1:25:32Speaker 2: what happened to you? She brought out a mirror. A
- 1:25:35Speaker 2: red mirror. Just normal plastic casing. She said when everybody
- 1:25:40Speaker 2: is looking at the man of God. She sits down
- 1:25:42Speaker 2: looking at the man in the mirror. And she has
- 1:25:44Speaker 2: a pin. She said all she has to do.
- 1:25:47Speaker 3: Is to use the pin to stab any.
- 1:25:48Speaker 2: Part of the man's body. It will develop a sickness
- 1:25:51Speaker 2: in that part and die. She said so what happened
- 1:25:55Speaker 2: to you? She said as you were standing. Suddenly I
- 1:25:58Speaker 2: saw that you grew wings. And the wings were on fire.
- 1:26:02Speaker 2: And the wings were separated. This side and that side.
- 1:26:05Speaker 2: And I saw two mighty beings standing there. I said,
- 1:26:09Speaker 2: so what happened? He said, while she was trying to
- 1:26:11Speaker 2: do what she was supposed to do, one of them
- 1:26:13Speaker 2: stretched his hand from the altar and touched her head.
- 1:26:17Speaker 2: So I said, he just touched your head? He said, yes.
- 1:26:19Speaker 2: And you were crying like that. What if he slaps you?
- 1:26:23Speaker 2: What if he knocks you? Greater is he that is
- 1:26:27Speaker 2: in us.
- 1:26:31Speaker 3: We are not stupid people.
- 1:26:32Speaker 2: Who are defenseless. Do you get what I'm saying? God
- 1:26:38Speaker 2: is not investing this much so that one day one
- 1:26:40Speaker 2: thing will just kill you like that no do you
- 1:26:49Speaker 2: think God is investing this much so you can be
- 1:26:52Speaker 2: very small and instead I'm glorifying your smallness do you
- 1:26:57Speaker 2: understand what you read when you read Ephesians 1 look
- 1:27:03Speaker 2: at it Ephesians 1 3 hold your Bible everybody.
- 1:27:09Speaker 3: Ephesians 1.3. When you read these things, what comes.
- 1:27:12Speaker 2: To your heart? Do you understand? Understand this. Ephesians 1.3.
- 1:27:18Speaker 2: He said, blessed be God and the Father of our
- 1:27:20Speaker 2: Lord Jesus Christ. Who has blessed us.
- 1:27:22Speaker 3: He has blessed us with all spiritual blessings.
- 1:27:25Speaker 2: He has blessed us with all. Not a part. He has.
- 1:27:33Speaker 3: Not a will.
- 1:27:36Speaker 2: Not a going to. He has.
- 1:27:43Speaker 3: Do you get what I'm saying?
- 1:27:47Speaker 2: Listen.
- 1:27:50Speaker 3: The reason why you are scarcity conscious.
- 1:27:56Speaker 2: Is because you are not aware that there is a
- 1:27:58Speaker 2: God with whom it never runs dry. And It has
- 1:28:08Speaker 2: now become so bad that when you teach and teach Christians,
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: when it comes to the part of acting out in
- 1:28:16Speaker 2: faith what they have learned, and say this is a
- 1:28:20Speaker 2: covenant practice, you now see them drag. Because that God
- 1:28:25Speaker 2: they are talking, they don't know him. Somehow they are
- 1:28:29Speaker 2: saying amen, but they are suspecting him that this God
- 1:28:31Speaker 2: wants to rip me. That is a lie. Is that
- 1:28:35Speaker 2: not what you are saying? That God wants to rip me,
- 1:28:38Speaker 2: wants to rip me, wants.
- 1:28:39Speaker 3: To rip me.
- 1:28:39Speaker 2: Of course you don't understand. And you see what happens
- 1:28:42Speaker 2: is that those people will have to walk at the
- 1:28:44Speaker 2: level of their strength and live from hand to mouth.
- 1:28:48Speaker 3: It will not be your portion.
- 1:28:50Speaker 2: There is nothing I see that changes a man's life
- 1:28:53Speaker 2: like taking steps of faith and obedience.
- 1:28:55Speaker 3: What did Jesus tell Peter?
- 1:28:57Speaker 2: He said, go and catch. He said, these guys are
- 1:28:59Speaker 2: asking for money. Go to the sea. Catch fish. The
- 1:29:01Speaker 2: first fish you catch, open the mouth. He was displaying
- 1:29:04Speaker 2: that sea in this economy we are coming from. We
- 1:29:08Speaker 2: can't be stranded. Do you get what I'm saying? Check
- 1:29:14Speaker 2: everyone who are broke, who gets broke every time. They
- 1:29:17Speaker 2: are always saying it. Check those who are sick every time.
- 1:29:20Speaker 2: Don't talk about your mountain.
- 1:29:22Speaker 3: Speak to the mountain. Speak to the mountain.
- 1:29:26Speaker 2: Who are down mountain? Speak to the mountain. Listen to me.
- 1:29:33Speaker 2: When we were coming to Abuja, I never had a
- 1:29:35Speaker 2: conversation with anybody who tried to convince me that Abuja
- 1:29:38Speaker 2: is a tough place. What do you mean? I was
- 1:29:43Speaker 2: coming down today, I knew that we were going to
- 1:29:45Speaker 2: spend less than three months in this facility. I'm not
- 1:29:48Speaker 2: telling you. Check back what I'm telling you. I knew.
- 1:29:51Speaker 2: And those who walk with me know. I don't stress
- 1:29:53Speaker 2: myself and say, ah, let's go here. There is something
- 1:29:59Speaker 2: called compelling power. There is a, listen, there is a
- 1:30:05Speaker 2: wind that is blowing from here. It will bring bone
- 1:30:08Speaker 2: to bones. There is, listen, check what I'm telling you.
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: There's going to be a vibration through this city. You
- 1:30:18Speaker 2: don't know what's going on. I'm not following what I'm
- 1:30:22Speaker 2: saying here. It is a consciousness. I don't do anything
- 1:30:26Speaker 2: and it's stagnant.
- 1:30:27Speaker 4: No.
- 1:30:30Speaker 3: God has never given.
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: Me any room that will not boast of me.
- 1:30:32Speaker 4: No.
- 1:30:35Speaker 2: No. He said go borrow vessels. And keep pouring the oil.
- 1:30:40Speaker 2: As long as there are vessels, the oil cannot run dry.
- 1:30:47Speaker 2: It is an awareness. It is an understanding. Do you
- 1:30:51Speaker 2: get it? I want to pray loud and clear in
- 1:30:55Speaker 2: the Holy Ghost. And speak about your own life.
- 1:31:08Speaker 4: Thank you. You know, when I say things, remind me now,
- 1:31:33Speaker 4: are you sexual?
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: You don't.
- 1:31:34Speaker 4: Are you sexual? They don't need to know. Most of
- 1:31:38Speaker 4: them know you are investitivist. Listen, there are some things
- 1:31:54Speaker 4: we do in the energy of the flesh, and the
- 1:31:56Speaker 4: reason you are doing them is because you don't believe it.
- 1:32:02Speaker 4: Do you understand?
- 1:32:03Speaker 2: The earth don't say it.
- 1:32:04Speaker 4: When the woman goes to set.
- 1:32:06Speaker 3: The earth on fire, I will say it.
- 1:32:11Speaker 4: What about me? What about me? As he said it,
- 1:32:15Speaker 4: do you hear what I'm saying? After a year, they're.
- 1:32:20Speaker 2: Going to say, he's taking me out of the game.
- 1:32:23Speaker 4: I'm only doing it.
- 1:32:26Speaker 2: He said the same thing with the man from there.
- 1:32:29Speaker 4: There's an awareness. What are you aware of?
- 1:32:33Speaker 2: What are you? See, listen. What is it that even
- 1:32:35Speaker 2: if they take all you have and they can't touch it,
- 1:32:37Speaker 2: you are not going to touch anything.
- 1:32:42Speaker 3: Because many believers have their confidence.
- 1:32:44Speaker 2: In their back and forth.
- 1:32:45Speaker 3: If you dare touch a thousand there again. You can't
- 1:32:48Speaker 3: take away what God has given you.
- 1:32:50Speaker 2: See, listen.
- 1:32:51Speaker 3: Of the word that we have heard, we have believed.
- 1:32:53Speaker 2: We have looked upon, that our hands have handled it.
- 1:32:57Speaker 4: That same word of God.
- 1:32:59Speaker 2: You can't collect it. It's handled it.
- 1:33:01Speaker 4: Try to take anything from me.
- 1:33:04Speaker 2: As long as you have not taken that, you have
- 1:33:06Speaker 2: not taken anything. Because the word has created one.
- 1:33:10Speaker 3: Do you get what I'm saying? What is it you
- 1:33:16Speaker 3: are conscious of?
- 1:33:18Speaker 2: Because listen, the moment your understanding is not secure, the
- 1:33:22Speaker 2: devil knows. You are like a chicken, a bird, and
- 1:33:25Speaker 2: it's in its own pen.
- 1:33:26Speaker 4: It can kill at any time.
- 1:33:29Speaker 2: It can kill at any time.
- 1:33:31Speaker 4: Because your life is not secure.
- 1:33:34Speaker 2: It's not fastened on any revelation. It's not built on
- 1:33:39Speaker 2: the rock. Can I give you a minute to cry
- 1:33:43Speaker 2: to God?
- 1:33:43Speaker 4: Can I give you a moment?
- 1:33:48Speaker 2: And you lift your voice loud and clear.
- 1:33:54Speaker 4: Thank you.
- 1:34:00Speaker 2: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
- 1:34:07Speaker 4: Jesus.
- 1:34:08Speaker 2: Jesus. Jesus.
- 1:34:48Speaker 5: In Jesus' mighty name we are praying. In Jesus' mighty
- 1:34:54Speaker 5: name we are praying. Say that amen with fire.
- 1:34:59Speaker 2: Real faith is not God's name. Real faith is not
- 1:35:05Speaker 2: God's will. Real faith is God's.
- 1:35:12Speaker 3: Because it is not faith if it is not finished.
- 1:35:17Speaker 2: The root of faith is in what has been finished
- 1:35:19Speaker 2: before you have commenced. Is that okay now? Now, let
- 1:35:27Speaker 2: me give you an instruction.
- 1:35:28Speaker 3: You must begin a journey of active detoxification.
- 1:35:34Speaker 2: Active. Now, sometimes when I engage people and I say this, this, this,
- 1:35:38Speaker 2: I say we're.
- 1:35:38Speaker 3: Going to go on a journey of detoxifying. If when
- 1:35:41Speaker 3: sickness tries to knock your door, The first thing you
- 1:35:44Speaker 3: start thinking is that it's trying to take your life.
- 1:35:46Speaker 2: You need detoxification. Your life should not be at the corridor.
- 1:35:51Speaker 3: You should be hidden in.
- 1:35:52Speaker 2: Christ, in God. Do you understand?
- 1:35:56Speaker 4: Do you know.
- 1:35:58Speaker 3: What I'm teaching?
- 1:36:00Speaker 2: I don't want to have any casualties amongst you. And
- 1:36:03Speaker 2: that's why you, see, you must have, see, listen, don't
- 1:36:05Speaker 2: build your life on any of the anointing, anointing and caching.
- 1:36:10Speaker 2: Because the day you anoint and caching great news, you
- 1:36:12Speaker 2: might be filled with it. But there is a revelation
- 1:36:15Speaker 2: nobody can.
- 1:36:15Speaker 4: Steal from you.
- 1:36:16Speaker 3: Do you care what I'm saying?
- 1:36:19Speaker 2: Do you understand? Don't build on only water. The day
- 1:36:23Speaker 2: that your water finishes, it might be finished too. A
- 1:36:27Speaker 2: wise man is like a man that builds his house
- 1:36:29Speaker 2: on the rock. That when the rain comes, the wind
- 1:36:31Speaker 2: and the storm.
- 1:36:32Speaker 4: It blows and it stands.
- 1:36:36Speaker 2: It stands.
- 1:36:38Speaker 3: Now lift your hands.
- 1:36:40Speaker 2: Now God told us, When he said, go to Abuja,
- 1:36:45Speaker 2: he said, I'm sending you to.
- 1:36:46Speaker 4: Raise my next functionaries in that city.
- 1:36:51Speaker 2: So I am very conscious of the people that God
- 1:36:54Speaker 2: is bringing.
- 1:36:54Speaker 4: I am not saying that these are people who have sticks.
- 1:36:57Speaker 2: And I am speaking these.
- 1:36:58Speaker 4: Words with my own eyes. I decree and declare it.
- 1:37:00Speaker 3: And it will not fall to the Lord.
- 1:37:02Speaker 4: You will not stop until you have become all that
- 1:37:05Speaker 4: God wants to be. I rebuke right now the spirit
- 1:37:18Speaker 4: of fear. I rebuke the spirit of limitation.
- 1:37:22Speaker 3: That is trying to crowd your heart.
- 1:37:24Speaker 4: Get out now!
- 1:37:25Speaker 3: From this moment, you become as bold.
- 1:37:28Speaker 2: As a lion.
- 1:37:28Speaker 3: Receive the spirit of boldness.
- 1:37:31Speaker 2: From today, the Lord is going to begin to give
- 1:37:34Speaker 2: you meaningful relationships in this city. Amen. The quality of
- 1:37:47Speaker 2: relationships that takes some 10, 20 years.
- 1:37:50Speaker 3: That you begin to step into high places.
- 1:37:53Speaker 2: You begin to walk.
- 1:37:54Speaker 3: Into powerful regions.
- 1:37:56Speaker 2: And begin to bring out results. You begin to step
- 1:37:59Speaker 2: into high places. You begin to walk into powerful regions.
- 1:38:02Speaker 2: You begin to bring out results. In the name of Jesus.
- 1:38:11Speaker 2: Because your life a lot is about the kingdom. Now
- 1:38:16Speaker 2: I speak. The result that is required to bring out
- 1:38:21Speaker 2: what will bring glory and honor to the neighborhood.
- 1:38:24Speaker 4: Begin to walk in it.
- 1:38:26Speaker 2: Begin to walk in it. Begin to walk in it.
- 1:38:30Speaker 2: In the name of Jesus.
- 1:38:32Speaker 4: From today, it becomes impossible for you to escape. It
- 1:38:42Speaker 4: doesn't matter those who have made up.
- 1:38:44Speaker 2: Stories, who have made up failure in any level. You
- 1:38:46Speaker 2: will not be a part of that history. In the
- 1:38:48Speaker 2: name of Jesus. Now listen.
- 1:38:49Speaker 4: The Lord spoke to me clearly and I.
- 1:38:50Speaker 2: Agreed with Him. Amen.
- 1:39:02Speaker 4: Do you know the same way when David and his
- 1:39:05Speaker 4: mighty men went to see Christ and where he was led?
- 1:39:09Speaker 4: Where did he come out of?
- 1:39:22Speaker 2: And David said, I wonder if I'm going to be
- 1:39:24Speaker 2: seven years old. I may be great.
- 1:39:26Speaker 4: If only the men are denied the seven years. The
- 1:39:29Speaker 4: dimension of prosperity that is around us is.
- 1:39:33Speaker 2: A hundred years.
- 1:39:34Speaker 3: For those who are not trying to.
- 1:39:35Speaker 4: Use God's resources for self-aggrandizement. You know what God told me?
- 1:39:39Speaker 4: God said, it is a dangerous thing for my resources.
- 1:39:42Speaker 3: You know why it is needed in the future?
- 1:39:49Speaker 2: That is, what you have in your pocket is what
- 1:39:52Speaker 2: God has said, drop it.
- 1:39:53Speaker 3: And somebody is in the field saying, God! When will
- 1:39:57Speaker 3: you help us?
- 1:39:57Speaker 4: You are saying, God, substitute me. And subsequently, I'm not
- 1:40:01Speaker 4: the man you met today. You got to push this
- 1:40:06Speaker 4: over the rest of your life.
- 1:40:12Speaker 3: There's somebody on the other side of my voice who
- 1:40:14Speaker 3: is indebted in very serious business.
- 1:40:17Speaker 4: Very, very, very serious business.
- 1:40:19Speaker 2: Between now and the next 72 hours, God is casting
- 1:40:22Speaker 2: his debt.
- 1:40:23Speaker 4: This fellow is on the other side of my voice.
- 1:40:26Speaker 4: I don't know if you are here online.
- 1:40:29Speaker 2: There's a very, very serious matter that is about to
- 1:40:33Speaker 2: burst open. Between now and the next 72 hours, it
- 1:40:41Speaker 2: is canceled.
- 1:40:42Speaker 4: So mighty guys are after you. Cancel it.
- 1:40:48Speaker 2: Cancel it. Cancel it.
- 1:40:49Speaker 4: We authorize a new beginning. We authorize new things. We
- 1:40:53Speaker 4: authorize new things. We authorize new things.
- 1:40:56Speaker 2: I'm saying something about amendment of a medical report. I'm
- 1:41:07Speaker 2: seeing the amendment of the medical report. There's an amendment
- 1:41:10Speaker 2: going on. There's an amendment going on.
- 1:41:12Speaker 4: There's an amendment going on. There's an amendment going on.
- 1:41:17Speaker 4: And suddenly they will say, we made.
- 1:41:18Speaker 3: A mistake with the reports given to us.
- 1:41:22Speaker 2: There's an amendment going on. There's an amendment going on.
- 1:41:53Speaker 4: And I decree right now.
- 1:42:16Speaker 2: The spirit of faith that is rising in.
- 1:42:19Speaker 4: Your heart will not go down.
- 1:42:21Speaker 2: Amen.
- 1:42:22Speaker 4: Come to me.
- 1:42:23Speaker 2: Use what it takes to be afraid. Amen.
- 1:42:25Speaker 4: In Jesus' mighty name.
- 1:42:27Speaker 2: Amen. Amen. What will we want? When he said, we
- 1:42:49Speaker 2: are tortured, he said, Lord, it's not right. It's not right.
- 1:42:52Speaker 4: Anywhere the word goes, it's not right.
- 1:42:56Speaker 2: Do you hear what I'm saying?
- 1:42:58Speaker 4: The word is not coming. The word is not coming.
- 1:43:04Speaker 4: The word is not coming.
- 1:43:07Speaker 2: Write it in after that.
- 1:43:09Speaker 4: God is not scamming me.
- 1:43:11Speaker 2: You will see.
- 1:43:11Speaker 4: People shouting the way that you know.
- 1:43:15Speaker 2: It will look like.
- 1:43:17Speaker 4: From night to day. I was speaking to one of
- 1:43:21Speaker 4: my friends. We were talking.
- 1:43:25Speaker 3: For two hours.
