- 0:26Speaker 2: In the name of Jesus Father, we obtain grace tonight.
- 0:33Speaker 3: You have brought us together again by your spirit, and
- 0:38you have granted us the grace and access even to pray.
- 0:43I pray that your word will strengthen us. Your word
- 0:47will grant us superior illumination. And in the name of Jesus,
- 0:52may we walk out of this place blessed, lifted, enlightened.
- 0:58Speaker 2: And strengthened.

- 1:05Speaker 3: It's good to see everyone. Allelujah. Good evening, everybody.
- 1:15Speaker 2: A man, please be seated. God bless you.

- 1:32because He wants to bring a refreshing and awakening.

- 1:43Speaker 3: Because we run only based on the strength that we have, Allelujah.
- 1:50He says that if your tonic again aside in the
- 1:53day of battle, that your strength is small. For some
- 1:57of you, this prayer session may really be what God
- 2:02brought you here to encounter, because at times like this,
- 2:06it is possible that your prayer life and your passion
- 2:12generally for the things of God can just dwindle in
- 2:15light of the things around. So I like you to
- 2:19be very sensitive as always. This is the ministry of
- 2:24the spirit, and so while I'm teaching, I want you
- 2:27to know that you are not only going to hear,
- 2:30but there will be an infusion of strength and power
- 2:33to lift you.
- 2:35Speaker 2: According to Eazicel, chapter two, from verse one.
- 2:37Speaker 3: And two said, son of Man, stand upon your feet,
- 2:42and I will speak unto you. And Ezekiel had no strength,
- 2:46and verse two says, and the spirit entered into me.
- 2:50When you speak onto me, the spirit entered into me.

- 4:07Speaker 3: Spiritual strategies for perilous times, Spiritual strategies for perillus times.
- 4:18Speaker 2: I want to open our eyes tonight.
- 4:22Speaker 3: On the strategies that believe us must deploy at times
- 4:28as this, spiritual strategies for perilous times, times of distress,
- 4:38times of trouble, times of conflict, times of on ease.
- 4:45The Bible does not leave us in the dark as
- 4:47to the fact that these kinds of times would come.
- 4:50That there will be moments in the life of a believer.
- 4:54There will be moments in the life or in a
- 4:59territory where you would find challenging times, times of war,
- 5:06times of turmoil, times of unrest, for various reasons, and
- 5:11the Bible teaches us, and it is important that we
- 5:14be mentor to understand how to leave victorious. At times
- 5:19as this, the Bible says, they know not neither will
- 5:22they understand. They walk on in darkness, and all the
- 5:26foundations of the earth are out of course. And so
- 5:30it's important for us to understand the kingdom principles that
- 5:34have been allotted for our victory, especially at times as this.
- 5:43Ask the Lord to speak to you. It's going to
- 5:44be a brief session. And then we'll pray. Open my eyes,
- 5:47so God, and let me see if someone pray open
- 5:56my eyes, Thank you Jesus, open my eyes and let
- 6:06me see. Praise the name of the Lord, in the
- 6:16name of Jesus. Second timot teach up the tree. Let's
- 6:20start from their second TIMO teach.
- 6:22Speaker 2: Up the three. The Bible assures us.
- 6:24Speaker 3: From verse one, it says, this know also that means,
- 6:29in addition to whatever else I have told you and
- 6:32taught you, do not forget this information. This know also
- 6:37that in the last days perry lost times, challenging times,
- 6:43disturbing times, pery lost times, it says, shall come. I'm
- 6:48not going to read further, just one is okay. The
- 6:51Bible already told us shall it didn't say may come.
- 6:55It shall come, provided you find yourself alive in the
- 6:59last days. The Bible says perilous times shall come. Second Corinthians,
- 7:09Chapter four. Second Corinthians, Chapter four. I'll begin my reading
- 7:13from verse eight. Second Corinthians four and verse eight. It says,
- 7:18we are troubled on every side, yet not distressed. We
- 7:25are perplexed, but not in despair. Verse nine. We are prosecuted,
- 7:32but not forsaken. We are even cast down, but not destroyed.
- 7:38These are scriptures that tell us very clearly that these
- 7:41times of turbulence will come. Two more scriptures in John
- 7:48chapter sixteen and verse thirty three. John sixteen and verse
- 7:52thirty three, Jesus himself was speaking approaching the end of
- 7:57his time with the disciples. Is that these things I
- 8:01have spoken onto you that ye in me might have.
- 8:06Speaker 2: Peace in the world.
- 8:09Speaker 3: You shall have tribulation, he says, But be of good chare.
- 8:13This is your consolation. I have overcome the world. That's
- 8:18why I ask Kay Stream to comm and sing for
- 8:20me that song be of good chare. He says, Fine,
- 8:23comfort in this fact that I have overcome the World one.
- 8:28Last scripture, Romances Chapter eight, very popular scripture. Will begin
- 8:34reading from verse thirty five. Romance, Chapter eight. From verse
- 8:40thirty five, we're reading to thirty seven. It says, who
- 8:43shall separate us from the love of Christ? Then he
- 8:49begins to least the number of things shall tribulation or distress,
- 8:57or persecution, or famine, or nakedness or peril or the
- 9:04sword thirty six, As it is written, for thy sake,
- 9:09we are killed all the day long.
- 9:11Speaker 2: We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
- 9:15Speaker 3: He says, Nay, in all these things we are more
- 9:20than conquerors. If someone agree with me that in all
- 9:26these things we are more than conquerors through Him that
- 9:31loved us. When Paul in his apostolic ministry, when he
- 9:38got to the city of Ephesus follow closely, he spent
- 9:44time teaching them on what we call survival strategies, and
- 9:52he broke his discourse into six chapters and three segments.
- 10:00Speaker 2: Are we together now?
- 10:02Speaker 3: He taught them what we know theologically speaking as the
- 10:07position of their advantage as a result of their oneness
- 10:12with Christ. He began his discussion in the Book of Efficients.
- 10:16When you reach chapter one, Chapter two, one part of
- 10:18chapter three. It talks about that which Christ has done
- 10:22for us. He begins his training and his mentorship by
- 10:28helping believers to draw strength from what Christ has done.
- 10:32That means the basis for the believers victory. He's teaching
- 10:35them now. He gave them an orientation as to what happened,
- 10:40as men like Kenyon would say from the Cross to
- 10:43the Throne that if you neglect that reality, there is
- 10:47no basis for your victory.
- 10:48Speaker 2: And so he took out time to show all that.
- 10:52Speaker 3: Happened, the death, the burial, the resurrection, the assession, and
- 11:00the exaltation of Jesus. And then he now brings us
- 11:04into the picture that not only has he been raised
- 11:07and made to sit at the right hand of the Father,
- 11:10he says that we have been raised with him. Also
- 11:13is that true? Far above thrones, dominions every name that
- 11:18is named, both in this dispensation and in that which
- 11:21is to come. So he starts by bringing an orientation,
- 11:26helping the believer understand that the work of victory that
- 11:30was wrought on the cross was total and entire. Are
- 11:34we together? And then he now brings the believer that
- 11:37by reason of our oneness being grafted into Christ.
- 11:41Speaker 2: We have been given the privileged to.
- 11:43Speaker 3: Be partakers not just of the nature, but partake us
- 11:48of that Johnny too, because he says we died in him,
- 11:53we died with him, we were raised with him. We're
- 11:55not only partakers of his nature, were partakers of the
- 11:59sufferings of Christ.
- 12:00Speaker 2: And then the glory that now follows.
- 12:04Speaker 3: And then the next point of his discourse was how
- 12:09believer us now walk worthy of that calling? That's the
- 12:13next level. Now he teaches them that you are living
- 12:16in the cosmos, and it is important to understand how
- 12:20to work and live a life that is worthy and
- 12:23befitting of your colleague. That if you fear off from
- 12:26this standard, you have betrayed the potential and the power
- 12:33that comes with that finished work. And then he wraps
- 12:36up by teaching us that there is an adversary away
- 12:40together now, and he encourages us to learn how to
- 12:43stand against the wiles of the enemy. He discusses something
- 12:48we know theologically to be the whole armor of God.
- 12:52He says, to put on the whole armor of God
- 12:54so that you will be able to quench, or overcome
- 12:57or succumb the wilds, the strategies of the enemy. So
- 13:04there is a provision in scripture that guides believe us
- 13:09to know how to live in challenging times.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Most believers do not have the wisdom.
- 13:15Speaker 3: And intelligence to live in times of trouble and in
- 13:19times of turbulence. Allelujah, especially for those of us who
- 13:28God has granted the privilege of living in this side
- 13:30of the country, it is important.
- 13:32Speaker 2: That we are equipped.
- 13:34Speaker 3: There are people who, by reason of location, they have
- 13:37an advantage, and they may not necessarily see the necessity
- 13:41of teachings like this, But it is important that God's
- 13:45people receive a spiritual orientation on how to live and
- 13:51to thrive at times like this. So I'm going to
- 13:54be shared with you very briefly as a charge tonight,
- 13:58be exposing us to form a strategies as revealed from
- 14:03Scripture that would help us to survive and to thrive
- 14:09and to work in dominion even.
- 14:13Speaker 2: At perilous times. Very quickly. Number one, the first strategy.
- 14:20Speaker 3: That the Bible gives the believer is to be strong
- 14:25in the Lord.
- 14:26Speaker 2: Efficient chapter six, place verse ten.
- 14:30Speaker 3: Be strong in the Lord, it says, finally, brethren, be
- 14:35strong in the Lord. Please, can you give us amplified.
- 14:39Is it possible to get amplified of this rendition? Amplified
- 14:43gives a very beautiful rendition of this verse. It says,
- 14:47in conclusion, let me read for you be strong in
- 14:51the Lord, it says, be empowered through your union with Him.
- 14:57Speaker 2: Draw your strength from Him.
- 14:59Speaker 3: That's from Him that strength, which is boundless might provide.
- 15:05Speaker 2: Draw your strength.
- 15:07Speaker 3: Be empowered through the consciousness of your union with Him.
- 15:14The first survival strategy that the Bible gives us at
- 15:17times as this is to be strong in the Lord.
- 15:23And Daniel chapter eleven from verse thirty two now gives
- 15:30us further clarity on the basis of our strength in
- 15:34this kingdom. Daniel eleven and verse thirty two that if
- 15:38you want to be strong, it says, but the people
- 15:42that do know their God, they shall be strong and
- 15:48shall do exploits. So Daniel connects through the revelation of
- 15:53Paul by letting us know that if you desire strength
- 15:58and stamina and capacity, it is derived from your knowledge
- 16:03of God. Is someone learning now you are strong in
- 16:07the Lord to the decree to which you are rooted
- 16:11in the knowledge of Him. Most people do not know God.
- 16:17The ignorance of who God is. The boundless might that
- 16:23he has will keep you in fear and defeat. You
- 16:26may never be able to draw strength, especially at times
- 16:30like this. All you need to do is to go
- 16:33on social media or put on your television or radio
- 16:36or whatever, and one news after the other, one kidnap,
- 16:40one bond blast, one threat, and all of those kinds
- 16:44of things. And when you are consumed by those information
- 16:47and you do not know God, chances are excellent that
- 16:51you will not have any Strengthen you again, are we
- 16:54together prophesy to yourself, say be strong, So we draw
- 17:01our strength in this kingdom from our knowledge, our knowledge?
- 17:06Speaker 2: Paul said, what I mean? That was Peter.
- 17:08Speaker 3: Now, But I know whom I have believed, he says,
- 17:11and I am persuaded that he is able to keep
- 17:15that which is committed onto him against that day. There
- 17:19is something about God when you know, when you know
- 17:24God and you understand his character, fear.
- 17:27Speaker 2: Dies permanently from your life.
- 17:29Speaker 3: Here what I'm telling you now, look or please the
- 17:32Bible lets us know that the prophet prophet Elisha, that
- 17:36he sat down and all kinds of people came, the army,
- 17:39they came and surrounded him, and he was He was
- 17:43sitting in confidence, and his servant was so fearful. There
- 17:47was something the prophet knew that was the basis of
- 17:50his confidence. He says, the Lord is my light and
- 17:53my salvation home. Shall I hear the Lord is the
- 17:57strength of my life. What I can do fear what
- 18:00man would do to me. Many believers do not know God.
- 18:06And so when peril, lost times come with crowns around,
- 18:09and we begin to act and manifest anti Christ qualities.
- 18:18Second Peter, Chapter three and verse eighteen. I believe it
- 18:21is appos to Peter was encouraging us to grow in
- 18:25Christ and in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
- 18:29Grow in Christ and the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
- 18:34In fact, John seventeen, John seventeen, give.
- 18:37Speaker 2: It to us. Verse three.
- 18:38Speaker 3: Jesus was praying, and he said, this is eternal life,
- 18:42that they may know thee the only through God and
- 18:46Jesus Christ, whom thou has said. Please get my teaching
- 18:52knowing God. We may not have the time to go
- 18:55into it, but I've done a teaching knowing God. You
- 18:58can go to a places. I think it should be
- 19:01on our YouTube channel. Also knowing God, I teach there
- 19:05that there are four biblical provisions to know God.
- 19:10Speaker 2: Number one is scripture. The first way.
- 19:14Speaker 3: We are given the allowance to know God is through
- 19:16the study of scripture, and that from a child now
- 19:23has known the Holy Scripture, which is able to make
- 19:26you wise onto salvation.
- 19:32Speaker 2: Are we together? You must know God. Paul, even at.
- 19:36Speaker 3: The end of his life, at the height of his
- 19:39apostolic ministry and his achievement, is said that I may
- 19:42know him. Believers most content for the knowledge of God
- 19:47and experiential knowledge of God, not just a theoretical knowledge,
- 19:53not that we just sing and then when times come,
- 19:55Because let me tell you this, if you are alive
- 19:58in these days that we are living, your faith will
- 20:01be tested once and again. Your stamina will come from
- 20:04your persuasion as to who.
- 20:07Speaker 2: You know God to be. Are we together? Number one?
- 20:13Speaker 3: Scripture I taught you end not teaching that the first
- 20:16way we know God is scripture. What does the scripture
- 20:20reveal that Jesus said, ye air not knowing the scriptures?
- 20:26It says, for the scriptures testify of me. So you
- 20:31can use the scripture to know God. What about God
- 20:34do you know from Scripture number one? His character? When
- 20:38you study scripture, you learn the character of God. Number two,
- 20:43When you study scripture, you learn his modus operandi, the
- 20:47way God behaves, his character.
- 20:50Speaker 2: And his methodologies.
- 20:54Speaker 3: So if you do not submit yourself to the study
- 20:58of scripture, and unfortunately, I admit to you that our
- 21:03generation is gradually becoming lazy as far as our passion
- 21:08for the world is concerned. We pray, and there are
- 21:11many people who pray, but the value of your prayer
- 21:14is derived.
- 21:15Speaker 2: From the understanding of scripture.
- 21:17Speaker 3: If you are not sounding scripture, your prayer will largely
- 21:20be shadow boxing. It's the reason why there is tremendous
- 21:25dissipation of spiritual energy but little results, because.
- 21:29Speaker 2: A man can pray and miss even if with passion.
- 21:35Speaker 3: Are we together. This is very important. So number one,
- 21:43we know God through scripture. Number two, the second biblical
- 21:50pathway to the knowledge of God is by studying his names.
- 21:55The names of God are a capture, a revelation of
- 21:58the multidim multi certain dimensions of Him. All of the
- 22:03names of God has revealed in scripture. They are hosts
- 22:06of a revelation about God. Who shall I tell? Pharaoh
- 22:10had sent me, He said, I am that I am.
- 22:14Every time they encountered God in a spectacular way, they
- 22:18name that place, They build a monument around that experience,
- 22:23and cap shot that experience in a name, so that
- 22:26every time they wanted to see that dimension again, they
- 22:29would invoke that name. Allelujah, very very important. Number three,
- 22:37how do we know God? As revealed from the Bible.
- 22:41The third way we know God is through the study
- 22:44of Jesus. Jesus himself. The Bible calls him the express
- 22:50image of the invisible God.
- 22:53Speaker 2: Hebrews chapter one.
- 22:55Speaker 3: When you read verse three, verse one says, God, who
- 22:57in saundry times and divers manner speak to us through
- 23:01the prophets, He said, as in these last days, spoken
- 23:05to us by his son, whom he had appointed to
- 23:08be heir of all things, by whom also he made
- 23:11the worlds. Verse three, he says, who've been the brankness
- 23:15of his glory and the express image of his person.
- 23:20So Jesus Christ is God. In collage John chapter one
- 23:24and verse one. In the beginning he says was the Word,
- 23:28and the world was with God. And he says the
- 23:31world was God. Verse two says the same was in
- 23:34the beginning with God. So when you study Jesus, you
- 23:40learn God by observing Jesus. I've taught you, many of
- 23:45you who have paid attention to these teachings.
- 23:49Speaker 2: I taught you that.
- 23:50Speaker 3: Jesus came for many reasons. He did not just come
- 23:53to die alone. There were many other things he came
- 23:55to achieve. One of the principal ministries of Jesus when
- 23:59he walked up on the heath, was he came as
- 24:01a marching script to correct our understanding about God. Because
- 24:06until Jesus came, there was no accurate knowledge of God
- 24:10by any man. The prophets saw in times and shadows,
- 24:13and there was a mix of many things.
- 24:17Speaker 2: Judais him and all of this.
- 24:19Speaker 3: There were many things the credited to God that God.
- 24:22Speaker 2: Had no hand in it. Are we together?
- 24:25Speaker 3: When you read the Old Testament from the lens of
- 24:29the prophets, you will come up with a plestorah of confusions,
- 24:32because it misrepresents God on many grounds.
- 24:36Speaker 2: And so Jesus came as a correction.
- 24:40Speaker 3: So everything the Bible tells you in the Old Testament
- 24:44that God was, we study Jesus as a verification system.
- 24:49If the Bible says God is love, we have a
- 24:52right to prove God until we see love captured in Jesus.
- 24:56So everything we did not see captured in the ministry
- 25:00of Jesus, we are safe to assume that it's not
- 25:03consistent with the character of God, even if revealed by
- 25:06the prophets. Are you learning now so more than just
- 25:09dying for your sin? The Bible calls him the author
- 25:15and the finisher of our faith the word finisher. There
- 25:19is perfect of our faith, not just ending it. He
- 25:23begins it and perfects it. There are many things we
- 25:31have been told about God that are wrong. And if
- 25:34you do not learn your knowledge of God from Jesus,
- 25:39you see, it will affect your relationship with God because
- 25:44you will not be able to relate with God being that.
- 25:47Speaker 2: You don't know certain things about God.
- 25:49Speaker 3: For instance, the Bible tells us that God is love.
- 25:53That is a powerful revelation. It should guide your heart
- 25:56as you deal with God. He is not just some
- 25:59angry person waiting with passion to vent vengeance on you.
- 26:03Speaker 2: No.
- 26:03Speaker 3: If that is your mindset about God, someone deceive you.
- 26:07You have to study God and study Jesus. Are wey together?
- 26:14Speaker 4: Yes?
- 26:16Speaker 3: If you ever received the comfort that God finds joy
- 26:19in your failure and mediocrity, then we look at Jesus.
- 26:23Did he ever see anybody who was in a condition
- 26:27that was not ideal and left that person? And if
- 26:31he did leave that person, what was the basis of
- 26:33living the person? There were people who were not healed
- 26:37in the Bible, for instance, and the Bible credits they
- 26:40are not being healed, not to the unwillingness of Jesus
- 26:43to heal them, but to the unbelieve. The Bible says
- 26:46Jesus even marveled many times in scripture. The Bible will
- 26:51say they brought him the oppress. He healed them all.
- 26:54When he saw the blind, he healed them. That means
- 26:58this knowledge of God, God will sponsor your dealings with God,
- 27:02that every time you pray, you know that at the
- 27:04back end of your prayer is a passionate Father willing
- 27:08to answer, as revealed by Jesus.
- 27:11Speaker 2: Tell son of David, have messy on me. He stopped.
- 27:14Speaker 3: So if I call upon God, I expect an answer,
- 27:17because Jesus came as a revelation of God.
- 27:21Speaker 2: Are we together now?
- 27:25Speaker 3: Many of us have come from, respectfully speaking, different denominations
- 27:29and different Christian circles, and most of our models as
- 27:34far as painting the picture of God is concerned. Even
- 27:37by well meaning people have been corrupted and aberrated, and
- 27:40there is something about our understanding of God that needs adjustment.
- 27:45So we look to Jesus. We learn God as we
- 27:49study Jesus, literally reading the Gospels from Matthew, mac Luke
- 27:55and John exposing Jesus. The Bible does not hide anything
- 27:59about Jesus. It exposed his personal life, It exposes relationship life.
- 28:05He exposes ministerial life. It exposed his understanding of family.
- 28:10So every whenever you are looking for God's perspective on
- 28:13any matters towardy the earthwork of Jesus, how did he
- 28:16approach those matters?
- 28:18Speaker 2: This is how we know God.
- 28:21Speaker 3: And then the last key that I gave in that
- 28:23teaching as to how we know God.
- 28:25Speaker 2: Is experienced experience.
- 28:30Speaker 3: Experience is very powerful. It can teach us some things
- 28:34about God. You want to stand in these days, you
- 28:43must know God. There are many preachers who do not
- 28:46know God. Can I tell you this? Men and women
- 28:49of God. The confidence from whence who will be able
- 28:54to teach God's people will be derived from.
- 28:57Speaker 2: Our personal experience with God.
- 29:00Speaker 3: It will be difficult for you to advocate certain dimensions
- 29:03of God.
- 29:03Speaker 2: If it is not a revelation to you.
- 29:06Speaker 3: For instance, it is a risk to shout and say
- 29:09God can heal when you are not pressed into that dimension,
- 29:12because there will always be in need for a demonstration
- 29:16of that which you believe. Does God deliver people from
- 29:22calamity or RADI your Bible?
- 29:24Speaker 2: Read your Bible.
- 29:26Speaker 3: Time will fail me to talk of Gideon and Jefta
- 29:29and Barakh, men who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrods, righteousness,
- 29:34shut the amount of lions.
- 29:36Speaker 2: It's in your Bible. So I know, and I am safe.
- 29:41Speaker 3: To believe, not assume that God can deliver. The Sami said,
- 29:46I will call upon the Lord who is worthy of praise.
- 29:49So shall I be saved from my enemies. God is
- 29:55able to deliver. I need not be afraid. What can
- 29:59man do to me? Let me tell you the truth. Believers,
- 30:01If you do not believe this, anything will kill you, anything.
- 30:05Speaker 2: Will sweep you off your feet.
- 30:08Speaker 3: You will need to know that God is not only
- 30:11a savior. He can be a shield and a defense.
- 30:15That's what the Bible says. He says the name of
- 30:17the Lord, his names, his various offices are a strong power.
- 30:22You can enter into any of the name as a revelation,
- 30:26and you are secured. Let me tell you, the evil
- 30:33that is physical that you see is by far less
- 30:36than the spiritual evils around you. When you hear that
- 30:40maybe there are terrorists or whatever, that is enough to
- 30:43bring here.
- 30:44Speaker 2: But whether or not you hear anything, the evils.
- 30:47Speaker 3: That happen part twenty four hour is enough to sweep
- 30:50and destroy you. You see the way people die around
- 30:53like chickens. Somebody just gets off headache, headache, and he dies.
- 30:56The psamis gave us a revelation already, It says, down,
- 30:59shall not be afraid of the arrows that fly by day.
- 31:03Speaker 2: Have you seen them? But they fly every day, including.
- 31:06Speaker 3: Now as I'm talking, the noise, some persilence, the destruction
- 31:12that we're stied in noonday. The first spiritual strategy for
- 31:19surviving perilous times is that.
- 31:22Speaker 2: You must know God. You must know God. There are
- 31:28things I know about God and I trust him.
- 31:34Speaker 3: No, you see, let me tell you, when you have
- 31:39not had an experience where your knowledge of God now
- 31:47defends you, your confidence may not be strong.
- 31:51Speaker 2: Are we together now?
- 31:52Speaker 4: Yes?
- 31:56Speaker 3: It takes the knowledge of God to do the things
- 31:59that we do. It takes the knowledge of God to
- 32:03go the places that we go.
- 32:05Speaker 2: What do you know about God?
- 32:09Speaker 3: What do you know about God with respect to his
- 32:12power to save? What do you know about God with
- 32:15respect to his power to preserve? What do you know
- 32:19about God with respect to his power to redeem? What
- 32:22do you know about God with respect to his messy?
- 32:26With respect to his grace? What do you know about
- 32:29God with respect to his judgment?
- 32:31Speaker 2: Listen?
- 32:33Speaker 3: These days are not the days for playing games with
- 32:35your spiritual life. You must obtain grace to settle down
- 32:39and become a student of scripture and learn. It was
- 32:44the same is that said the Lord is gracious and compassionate,
- 32:49slow to anger, and rich in love. He was not taught.
- 32:53It was something he found. There was something did not
- 33:00know about God that made him have bought a powerful
- 33:04experience that would have changed his life. As a result
- 33:08of not having that experience, he paid the price for
- 33:10twenty years in the house of Loban. The next time
- 33:14God would come. He had learned through pain something about
- 33:18God that if your name and what is on your
- 33:21head is not changed, you can suffer and beyond that duress.
- 33:25Speaker 2: And he held him. He said, I would not let
- 33:26you go.
- 33:28Speaker 3: He was not holding his hands, he was holding his integrity. God,
- 33:32I know you leave me for the day. Breaker, he said,
- 33:35I would not let you go unless you bless me.
- 33:37Hear how God blesses.
- 33:39Speaker 2: What is your name? I am Jacob. Thou shall no
- 33:44more be called Jacob, but Israel for us a prince.
- 33:47Speaker 3: You have had power with God and prevailed. He touched
- 33:50the whole of his tie and blessed him. The Bible
- 33:53says he called the name of the place penny Hell,
- 33:57and the sun arose for him. I have seen God
- 34:00face to face, and my life is preserved. Please take
- 34:03the time to know God. The journey that you are
- 34:06about to emback on for the remaining days that we
- 34:09have to spend on this heath is a journey that
- 34:12will thrive on personal revelation.
- 34:15Speaker 2: Thank God for the ministry of the Fivefold.
- 34:19Speaker 3: But as they issue that word, you have to transfer
- 34:22that theoretical knowledge that does not stand the test of time.
- 34:26You need to work as a believer who is confident
- 34:30in the fact that he knows God is Let not
- 34:32the wise man glory in his wisdom?
- 34:34Speaker 2: Is that true?
- 34:35Speaker 3: Let not the strong man glory in the strength. Let
- 34:38not the rich man glory in his riches. But it
- 34:40said let him that glory and glory in this that
- 34:44he understanding and know it me. When you know about
- 34:49God and someone brings a negative prophecy for you and says,
- 34:52my brother, I had a dream you are there tomorrow.
- 34:56The person may not be wrong, but there is something.
- 34:59Speaker 2: You know about God. It gives you security.
- 35:02Speaker 3: When Isaiah the prophet came and spoke over here, Zakayah,
- 35:06put your house in order, you will die. It's a
- 35:09prophet I respect you, go live me and God I
- 35:12know what to tell him. He turned his face to
- 35:14the world and say, remember is there no book of remembrance.
- 35:17He was saying, remember how I've worked diligently, and God
- 35:21changed that prophecy. If you don't know God, people who
- 35:25use the prophetic to cheat you, especially in the days
- 35:28who are living in There are people who became defeated
- 35:33because of something they heard. Someone will look at you
- 35:43and tell you Awn Iszariah. Unfortunately there is nothing your
- 35:46life is. You are just miserable. Your life is over,
- 35:50no school, no work, no money, no nothing, no favor.
- 35:53And you believe that because there is something about God you.
- 35:56Speaker 2: Do not know.
- 35:57Speaker 3: Where is the God that made light in Gosh and
- 35:59when there was actless in Egypt. You see, the people
- 36:03that do know their God shall be strong and shall
- 36:08do exploits. If someone learning number two very quickly, in fact,
- 36:17let me finish up number one.
- 36:19Speaker 2: I wrote here commit to the.
- 36:22Speaker 3: Ministry of study, the ministry of prayer, and the ministry
- 36:29of fellowship.
- 36:30Speaker 2: Please write it down.
- 36:33Speaker 3: There are four things that the Apostles did the Ely
- 36:37Church did. I will come there shortly, but let's just
- 36:39look at it. At chapter twe verse forty two. There
- 36:45are four basic things and they continued steadfastly. Number one
- 36:52in the Apostles, doctrine number two, fellowship number three, breaking
- 36:58off bread, number four, oh prayers. This is what they
- 37:02did continually. This is not the time to run away
- 37:12from the study of the world. This is the time
- 37:14to obtain grace from God, to be disciplined and sit
- 37:18with the word. You are a student here. Don't say
- 37:21our sue's on strike. If you are in in you know,
- 37:24in you or any of the institutions that is on strike,
- 37:27don't use the opportunity to waste your time away and
- 37:30just say I keep just say no no. That is
- 37:34see as a destiny opportunity to catch up. That there
- 37:38are things you would not have had the time to do.
- 37:40Now you can wake up in the morning and you
- 37:43can stay with the Word. It takes time to know God.
- 37:46There is no first knowing God. It is line upon line,
- 37:51precepts upon precepts. May that grace come upon you in
- 37:58the name of Jesus Christ. Can I tell you everything
- 38:02that fights your passion for the study of the world
- 38:06fights your passion for prayer these two it has destroyed
- 38:11your potential for growth. Let me repeat that, everything that
- 38:15fights your passion for the constructive study of the world
- 38:20of God finds your passion for prayer, has fought your
- 38:25potential for spiritual growth, no matter how spiritual you think
- 38:28you are. The formula remains the same, asks chapter six
- 38:33and verse four. But we will give ourselves continually to
- 38:39the Word, to prayer and to the ministry of the world,
- 38:44and seeks four. But we will give ourselves continually to
- 38:50prayer and the ministry of the world.
- 38:53Speaker 2: That's what built the apostles.
- 38:59Speaker 3: If your prayer life has gone down, your word study
- 39:02life has gone down, then this is the meeting between
- 39:05today and tomorrow. You must obtain grace from God to
- 39:08flog it out with destiny and fin these dimensions of
- 39:12your life back on fire, apostle.
- 39:15Speaker 2: But my mother is a prayer warrior.
- 39:17Speaker 3: Let me assure you there are wells that nobody can
- 39:20dig for you, especially in the days that are coming.
- 39:23I way together Mam can intercede for you. But when
- 39:27you stand face to face with real life situation, it
- 39:30is the people that know Dear God, not dear neighbor's God.
- 39:33Speaker 2: Dear God. Run away from spiritual laziness.
- 39:40Speaker 3: And obtain grace from God to settle down in the
- 39:44name of Jesus Christ. Number two, What is the second
- 39:48spiritual strategy for these perilous times?
- 39:52Speaker 2: Are you ready?
- 39:53Speaker 3: I wrote here, work, w alk, walk, and live by
- 39:59the princip of the world of God. You want to
- 40:03thrive and command dominion even in these perilous times, you
- 40:07must walk and leave by the principles of.
- 40:12Speaker 2: The Word of God.
- 40:18Speaker 3: Living your life just from a cultural standpoint, from a
- 40:22sociological standpoint, from a humanistic standpoint, just trusting your brain
- 40:28entirely will land you in disaster. You must submit yourself
- 40:31to work and leave by the principles of the Word
- 40:35of God.
- 40:36Speaker 2: Matthew Chapter four, Verse four.
- 40:38Speaker 3: Jesus himself was speaking, resisting the devil now in his temptation.
- 40:42He answered and said, it is written, man shall not
- 40:47leave by bread alone, but by every word that proceeded out.
- 40:53Speaker 2: Of the mouth of God. We don't just live by food.
- 40:57Speaker 3: The quality of our lives and destinies are dependant or.
- 41:01Speaker 2: Not just our knowing.
- 41:03Speaker 3: Remember, the Bible says, now that you know these things,
- 41:06it says, happy are you if you do them? There
- 41:11are people who are ever learning, but never coming to
- 41:14the knowledge of the truth. Listen, it is one thing
- 41:17to study and to know what. You must obtain grace.
- 41:21Speaker 2: To not only engage it, but to leave it as
- 41:24a lifestyle.
- 41:26Speaker 3: Your immunity in these times is derived from your living
- 41:32and walking by the principles of the scripture.
- 41:37Speaker 2: Psalms eighty nine and verse thirty four.
- 41:40Speaker 3: Is God's speaking to someone Psalm eighty nine and verse
- 41:44thirty four.
- 41:47Speaker 5: You are the covenant keeping you the covenant, keeping.
- 42:02Speaker 2: Yeah covenant. It says, my covenant, will I.
- 42:21Speaker 3: Not break nor all time the thing that is gone
- 42:27out of my lips. This is a very powerful information
- 42:31about God. Do you know what covenant living is? Covenant
- 42:36living means to live with the consciousness that my victory
- 42:40and my excelling in life depends on me and God,
- 42:45not God alone, not me alone. My living and my
- 42:50excelling depends on my perpetual partnership between me and God.
- 42:57What is my own role to work in keeping with
- 43:00the provisions that command and commit his integrity?
- 43:04Speaker 2: What is his own part to make his work true?
- 43:06Speaker 3: In the life of the opedient believer, a covenant consciousness
- 43:16is a consciousness of partnership that it never depends on
- 43:19me alone, and that it does not depend on God
- 43:23alone as far as my excelling in life is concerned.
- 43:28Speaker 2: Please look up, Please look up.
- 43:30Speaker 3: If you do not make up your mind to live
- 43:33by the principles of the world of God, I assure you,
- 43:37no matter what you see in Scripture, your life will
- 43:40perpetually be the opposite of all that you see, because
- 43:44it is not just those who see it, but those
- 43:47who work in keeping with the principles.
- 43:51Speaker 2: That commit God.
- 43:52Speaker 3: Just because God is love, just because God is compassionate,
- 43:57does not mean he randomly commits himself to people.
- 44:00Speaker 2: Know you have heard me say that Scripture.
- 44:03Speaker 3: Defines the boundary of our commitment or God's commitment to
- 44:08the believer. God is not indefinitely committed to the believer,
- 44:12just without boundary. No God himself submits to his world.
- 44:18The Bible says that he exhorts his word even above
- 44:22his office. He can be moved over your situation, but
- 44:27it takes his word to move his hand to your rescue. Now,
- 44:32this is the balance to this dimension of God that
- 44:35most believers do not know. They rest in the fact
- 44:37that God is love. God forbid, he can't watch me
- 44:41soffer and just mind his business. You are joking this
- 44:44God until you understand the character and the power that
- 44:49was invested in the world of God.
- 44:57Speaker 2: They know not. Neither will they understand.
- 45:01Speaker 3: They work on in darkness, and all the foundations of
- 45:03the earth is out.
- 45:05Speaker 2: Of course.
- 45:06Speaker 3: I have said ye are gods, and all of you
- 45:09are children of the most High.
- 45:10Speaker 2: It says what you shall die like mayor men, and
- 45:13fall like one of the princes. Please look up. Written
- 45:21in this scripture are promises.
- 45:23Speaker 3: I have taught you this that the Bible contains three
- 45:27things essentially number one promises, number two principles, number three prophecies.
- 45:34Every time you open your Bible, you are interacting with
- 45:37three dimensions of spiritual realities number one promises, number two principles,
- 45:44the modus operandi of the kingdom, Number three prophecies.
- 45:51Speaker 2: So before you.
- 45:52Speaker 3: Ask God to come and play his role in your life,
- 45:55make sure that you have worked in keeping.
- 45:57Speaker 2: This is the whole idea of living by Fai.
- 46:00Speaker 3: Four times in scripture, the Bible says the just shall
- 46:04live by faith. In one of the expressions, it says
- 46:07the jost shall live by his faith. So you have
- 46:16to find out what God has said and then find
- 46:19out the conditions connected. Listen carefully, don't just find out
- 46:24what God has said a lord Ah. Finding out what
- 46:27God has said alone is not a fair Bible study.
- 46:31You must find out the point of commitment. That is
- 46:34a balanced study of scripture. What has God said tou
- 46:38Tuonomy chapter twenty eight, for instance, from verse one and two,
- 46:42it shall come to pass give it to us, please,
- 46:45if that shall diligently hackn onto the voice of the Lord,
- 46:49to observe and to do all that I command you
- 46:52this day, that the Lord God will set you on
- 46:55high above the nations of the earth. Next verse it says,
- 46:59and these blessings shall come upon thee and overtake you.
- 47:04So don't just claim blessings and say I am above
- 47:07and not beneath.
- 47:08Speaker 2: That is true, but that's not entirely true.
- 47:11Speaker 3: Have you worked in keeping with the conditions that release
- 47:15the power of God?
- 47:16Speaker 2: On that wise? Are we together? Yeah?
- 47:24Speaker 3: The Bible says, honor the Lord with your substance and
- 47:27with the first fruit of all your increase. So shall
- 47:30the bands be filled with plenty and your verts to overflow.
- 47:33Don't claim overflow if you're not working with the conditions.
- 47:37This is where believers keep mocking themselves.
- 47:40Speaker 6: God is not.
- 47:41Speaker 3: Committed, where your obedience has not been released. If it
- 47:47be thou bid me come, the man would have said,
- 47:50I know you, you are a kind God.
- 47:51Speaker 2: You would have remained here, bid me come.
- 47:54Speaker 3: Now, I take that step. It is my responsibility to work.
- 47:57And he took that step. And even when he signed,
- 48:00God took responsibility and brought him back up again. Someone's
- 48:06life is changing in the name of Jesus Christ. For instance,
- 48:10Please look up. The Bible says, let the redeemed of
- 48:14the Lord say so. Don't just say, oh, I know
- 48:18that I'm the redeemed. Have you said it? It is
- 48:20a principle that whatever you are, say it.
- 48:24Speaker 2: It's not just about the redeem the Lord.
- 48:26Speaker 3: Anything you believe that God has said you are, he says,
- 48:30among the many principles that makes it manifest in your life,
- 48:34you must say. Let the anointed of the Lord say so.
- 48:39Let the blessed of the Lord say so?
- 48:43Speaker 2: Are we together? Now?
- 48:45Speaker 3: Many people who know so, but they don't say so.
- 48:48The power is released at the point of speaking. And
- 48:51God said, and their words not, and God wanted not,
- 48:55and God taught. The Bible says, we're the world. If
- 49:00the King is there is power. There are many believers
- 49:03who keep speaking evil, speaking a lot of wrong things
- 49:07about their lives.
- 49:09Speaker 2: And can I tell you this, please look up. Most
- 49:11of you sadly.
- 49:14Speaker 3: Believe that the more matured you are in the Kingdom,
- 49:17the more you throw away these things. You call them elementary,
- 49:20so to say, why do I need to speak the
- 49:22word of God? The times that we're living will surprise
- 49:25you if you ignore the simplicity of the principles.
- 49:29Speaker 2: Of the Kingdom.
- 49:31Speaker 3: Allelujah everything God has made you say it not once,
- 49:36perpetually Philemon one and verse six, that the communication of
- 49:42your faith might be effectual through the acknowledging of every
- 49:47good thing that is in you in Christ. And the
- 49:50greatest way to acknowledge is by verbalizing it. Lord, you
- 49:54have favored me. I decree and declare that I remain favored.
- 49:58I am blessed in the city, I am blessed in
- 50:01the country. A thousand falls by my side, ten thousand
- 50:04by my right side. None will hurt me with my eyes.
- 50:07Will I see and behold? Can I tell you? God
- 50:11does not do what you want. God only does what
- 50:14he says. Genesis twenty one, verse one, And the Lord
- 50:20visited Sarah twenty one one. Genesis visited Sarah as he
- 50:27had said, And the Lord did onto Sarah as he
- 50:31had spoken. If God has not said it, if he
- 50:35has not spoken it, the basis for performance is not there.
- 50:39If someone learning, you must learn how to live by
- 50:42the principles of the world of God. I've taught you
- 50:48several principles through the years and connecting with our Sunday
- 50:52services and all that you receive even during Friday services
- 50:55year there we continue to teach principles that help you.
- 50:59Let me give you anands. Please look up. Let's assume
- 51:01you are in a financial situation right now, or you
- 51:05are in.
- 51:06Speaker 2: Any situation of loss.
- 51:08Speaker 3: Any time you are experiencing losses in your life, it's
- 51:11not business or investment or job that brings you out.
- 51:14Go and read your Bible from Genesis to Revelation. It
- 51:18is the responsibility of the prophetic, that is God's authorized
- 51:23bailout system out of anything that is lost our last master,
- 51:27for it was borrowed and is aware failed, and the
- 51:30axe had floated. Now, when you live by the principles
- 51:34of the Kingdom, you live by this. He spake a
- 51:37parable that men ought always to pray. Look eighteen and
- 51:41verse one, and not too faint if you are not prayer,
- 51:44for you are already for relating the principles of the Kingdom.
- 51:46Prayer is not for prayer warriors. Prayer is not for preachers.
- 51:51Prayer is for men. So, the moment you realize that
- 51:57you are a man the Bible, man.
- 52:00Speaker 2: That you pray. Being prayerful.
- 52:07Speaker 3: Is not how do I put it now, is a
- 52:10prerequisite for an excelling life, whether you are an intercessor
- 52:14or not. Kingdom principles. Anything you want to build in
- 52:22your life, you require. Wisdom is a true wisdom is
- 52:26a house built by understanding it is established, and through knowledge,
- 52:31the rooms are filled with every pleasurable thing. Most of
- 52:35us have not found the place of wisdom. We have
- 52:38not seen the excellency of wisdom. In fact, the Bible
- 52:42puts it this way. It says Christ is the power
- 52:44of God, and Christ is the wisdom of God. When
- 52:48the anointing manifests, it manifests as the power of God
- 52:52and the wisdom of God. There are issues in your
- 52:55life that is not power you need. You need wisdom.
- 52:58There are issues in your life that you need power.
- 53:00It is still the ministry of the annointing that when
- 53:03the anointing is released, it is manifested as the power
- 53:07of God and also the wisdom of God. Don't give
- 53:10the assignment of wisdom to power.
- 53:15Speaker 2: Are we learning now?
- 53:19Speaker 3: Kingdom principles Apostle, I don't have any friend.
- 53:23Speaker 2: I think it's just because I love God.
- 53:24Speaker 3: No, the Bible says he that one's friends must show
- 53:27himself friendly. If you violate that principle, you may be
- 53:31the most anointed person in your life. You will never
- 53:34have anyone willing to invest your lives into yours.
- 53:39Speaker 2: Let me tell you this place, look up.
- 53:40Speaker 3: The time has come for us to ask yourself the
- 53:44values that I practice and the principles that I live by,
- 53:48where do they come from?
- 53:52Speaker 2: Let God be true and every man a liar.
- 53:57Speaker 3: When I came into Zariah, I was just looking at
- 54:00and you know, I've received so many text messages from
- 54:03people apostle. Times are hard, finances, things are down as
- 54:07we are right now, we don't even know. And let
- 54:10me tell you, I sympathize with this. What can I
- 54:12tell you, my dear people. We are not the first
- 54:15to be at times like this. There was a time
- 54:17in the Bible they said money failed, money failed. That
- 54:21people came and said by us, by the immutability of
- 54:29God's counsel, if it is true that you engage the
- 54:32principles that make for God's financial resources to come to you,
- 54:39you will marvel and wonder.
- 54:41Speaker 2: Let me give you a few of the principles.
- 54:43Speaker 3: Number one, there is here that scattered and yet increases.
- 54:46The Bible says there is here that we hold it
- 54:48more than his meat and tends to poverty.
- 54:50Speaker 2: But that is not the only principle.
- 54:52Speaker 3: Principle Number two, the gift of a man will make
- 54:55room for him and bring him before. So if you
- 54:58scatter alone and you are not valuable, you will still
- 55:02suffer because the equation is not complete. A lazy man
- 55:06will not plow by reason of the weather, and you
- 55:09will beg in harvest. It is still part of the principle.
- 55:12Don't pick part of it, pick the whole counsel. The
- 55:15challenge it, believe us, is that we pick the most
- 55:18convenient part of Kingdom principles that suit us, and we
- 55:22find out it does not work. You must embrace the
- 55:25whole counsel that releases that dimension of God you desire,
- 55:29convenient or not. That is where the grace of God
- 55:32comes in, so that where your strength would ordinarily not
- 55:36be able to help you through, you can now obtain
- 55:39that enabling grace is someone learning. Now, if the only
- 55:44thing you do is tithing and giving dear people hear me, resources.
- 55:50Speaker 2: Will come, but you will not perpetuate wealth that way.
- 55:53Speaker 3: There is a place of value, There is a place
- 55:55of relationships.
- 55:57Speaker 2: There is the wisdom of increase. There is the law
- 55:59of money.
- 56:00Speaker 3: These are all principles together that make for increase.
- 56:05Speaker 2: Which one have you neglected? How about longevity?
- 56:10Speaker 3: Do you know that there are Kingdom principles that are
- 56:12allotted for longevity? The first law of longevity is honor
- 56:16to parents in the Lord. It says, honor your father
- 56:21and your mother, that your days may be long, commer,
- 56:24and it may be well with you. It is a
- 56:26terrible thing for your days to be long and it's
- 56:29not well with you, because you will pray for death.
- 56:32Longevity is useless if it comes with a pletoria of pain.
- 56:38So our society that has been trained to dishonor people
- 56:42spiritually and physically dishonor elderly people.
- 56:45Speaker 2: They are not intelligent. They didn't go to school.
- 56:48Speaker 4: You are.
- 56:48Speaker 3: You are authorizing the realm of the spirit to conshort
- 56:51your life. What is the second principle for longevity? I
- 56:58said before you life and death. I said before you
- 57:01blessing and cursing.
- 57:02Speaker 2: Choose life.
- 57:03Speaker 3: The first way to choose life is to verbalize it. Then,
- 57:07in addition to it, you work in keeping with the
- 57:10principles that are pro life, for instance, taking care of
- 57:14your body. When you take care of your body, it
- 57:17is your commitment to tell God and the realm of
- 57:20the Spirit that you intend to live long. You're cheerless
- 57:23with your body, eat anything, drink anything. You are signing
- 57:29up for death. Is someone hearing. Yes, another principle of longevity.
- 57:34God your heart with all diligence, for out of it
- 57:37comes the issue of life. Job said, the things that
- 57:40I've heared most has come upon me. You must protect
- 57:43your mind. It's God teaching us now.
- 57:55Speaker 2: Yes, us, be.
- 58:00Speaker 3: Honest and strong and matured to live by the principles
- 58:05of the Kingdom. I submit to you that many believers
- 58:08are not living by the principles of the Kingdom. A person,
- 58:11I want to excel, Okay, show me the principle you
- 58:15know about excelling in life. Because the Bible relates excellent
- 58:21to something called an excellent spirit.
- 58:25Speaker 2: Have you embraced it? The name of the.
- 58:27Speaker 3: Lord is not only great, it is excellent, Old Lord,
- 58:31our God, how excellent is your name? To excel means
- 58:37to surpass ordinary standards, and excellence has principles.
- 58:43Speaker 2: One of the.
- 58:44Speaker 3: Principles of excellence is to be thorough attention to details.
- 58:50If you are not a thorough person in your life,
- 58:53you have neglected the law of excellence. There will be
- 58:55a side effect. Are we together now? So I want
- 59:00to see faivor in my life. Show me what you
- 59:03know about faivor. I know God favors people. You are right,
- 59:06but that will not bring you favor. God grants faivor
- 59:11I have as him, you will give me. Yes, Prayer
- 59:14is only one of the five keys that control faivor.
- 59:18The first law of faivor is honored. The second law
- 59:21of faivor is productivity. The third law of favor is relationships.
- 59:27You see that the first law of favor is impartation.
- 59:30You can't do one over six and expect favor to
- 59:33be lavishly at work in you. The real secret for
- 59:37favor is understanding Prohabs thirteen fifteen. It says, good understanding
- 59:42procureate favor. But the way of the transgressor is hard.
- 59:51So there are many things we just shout around that
- 59:53does not speak in our lives because we are not
- 59:56working in keeping. Are you understanding point two?
- 59:59Speaker 2: Now? But you want to thrive in these.
- 1:00:01Speaker 3: Days your life, you must bring together all of the
- 1:00:10keys of the kingdom that you know and engage them
- 1:00:13with understanding. How about divine health? Is there such a
- 1:00:24reality as divine health? Absolutely? But what are the keys?
- 1:00:29What are the keys? Number one? The first law of
- 1:00:33divine health, look or please. The first law of divine health.
- 1:00:36Speaker 2: Is your words. Your words, your words very important. Your words.
- 1:00:43Speaker 3: Let the weak say, I am strong your words, because
- 1:00:50when he has to do it living, you live through
- 1:00:52food and words. You are eating well, you are not
- 1:00:54speaking where you will still die.
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: Words.
- 1:01:01Speaker 3: I shall not die, believe and declare.
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: The works of the Lord. Ah Man. That's my confession,
- 1:01:13even at this time, that I shall not die, but
- 1:01:18believe and deckla the works of the Lord.
- 1:01:26Speaker 3: As simple as this sounds, even when you are sleeping,
- 1:01:30that world is on you. When the spirit of death comes,
- 1:01:33you are sleeping, but the world is awake.
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: It says, what are you doing here?
- 1:01:37Speaker 3: Because there are rules of engagement even in the realm
- 1:01:39of the spirit.
- 1:01:40Speaker 2: Just because you are sleeping does not mean the words sleep.
- 1:01:43Speaker 3: They believe, said and combat to me, Jesus said, and
- 1:01:49he found nothing. Jesus died because he laid down his life,
- 1:01:53not because he was overpowered.
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: I shall not die, but leave and leave the word
- 1:02:08safter Lord come.
- 1:02:13Speaker 3: See, I may not have all the control I need
- 1:02:18over who gives me what and what I did, So
- 1:02:21before it arrives, I profess I shall leave Sapa man.
- 1:02:26Bragados can be brattabayata. No, I have no covenant with poison.
- 1:02:32I have no covenant with death in the pot.
- 1:02:35Speaker 6: Same power that conquered.
- 1:02:38Speaker 2: The grave lives in me, leaves in me.
- 1:02:47Speaker 4: You all.
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: The rescue dear leaves in me.
- 1:02:54Speaker 3: Live city, profess. I want that for your destiny. Same
- 1:03:00power that conquered the great lisen Listen, all the less
- 1:03:14you bessen me.
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: Don't wish it say it.
- 1:03:27Speaker 3: Well first all, I don't want to speak like that.
- 1:03:29I don't want to sound all this christ engine goism.
- 1:03:31I assure you, when that arrow leaves our place, because
- 1:03:35we would drive it through our words, it won't go back.
- 1:03:38It would still be roaming around you. See, So who
- 1:03:41is careous? Don't just laugh? Take seriously what I'm saying.
- 1:03:47There are people who have died cheaply. Can I tell
- 1:03:51you the truth, Especially if you plan to save God seriously,
- 1:03:56your life will perpetually be a track to the Kingdom
- 1:03:59of Do you know the amount of prophecies I've received
- 1:04:03in my life in the last three or four years,
- 1:04:06A possibly careful by chandouin profits. I remember one day
- 1:04:11somebody I know not in this nation, a very genuine prophet.
- 1:04:15Every Thing he has told me happened accurately to the digits,
- 1:04:20and instead I possibly be careful. I saw an attack
- 1:04:22on you that there was going somewhere. I told him,
- 1:04:24thank you.
- 1:04:25Speaker 4: Ah.
- 1:04:26Speaker 3: It's not easy to die like that though, So don't
- 1:04:31think I'm just here talking nonsense with you.
- 1:04:33Speaker 2: You ask the devil.
- 1:04:35Speaker 3: It's only when we go to heaven we will know
- 1:04:37how many times they are concluded that today, finally, and
- 1:04:40two weeks later, you are still moving a see if
- 1:04:42the devil does not exist.
- 1:04:45Speaker 2: Look, let me tell you this. Please look up. Do
- 1:04:48you know that?
- 1:04:49Speaker 3: Don't feel bad if you've lost a loved one. That's
- 1:04:51not the idea. Now that you are alive, focus on
- 1:04:55what God is doing in your life. Do you know
- 1:04:57that many many days and months before people actually die,
- 1:05:01they are already dead in the realm of the spirit.
- 1:05:04Go and read your Bible in the Book of Esther,
- 1:05:07and you'll find out that a man consulted with define
- 1:05:10us to know the day that they will strike.
- 1:05:19Speaker 6: Job.
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: Chapter one tells.
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: Us that a meeting was happening in the realm of
- 1:05:23the spirit and they were concluding the destiny of a man.
- 1:05:26The man woke up one morning not knowing that that
- 1:05:29day disaster will start. Before it arrives. Let your words
- 1:05:33stand thats a city as it defense, and said, Tod,
- 1:05:36far have you come. His father did not notice, so
- 1:05:40you took him. The mother did not notice, so you
- 1:05:43took her. The sisters did not notice. But now let
- 1:05:47your words. We are defiance ovalue. Can I tell you this?
- 1:05:54Don't feel offended. We thank God for those who have gone.
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: But sear me.
- 1:05:59Speaker 3: The Bible don't say believers die. The Bible says believers sleep.
- 1:06:03And Paul said, those who sleep sleep at night. Don't
- 1:06:08come in the morney wanting me to sleep. No, we
- 1:06:11sleep at night. I must walk the walks of Him
- 1:06:15that sent me. While it is day days for work,
- 1:06:19that is the scripture that you bring days for work.
- 1:06:23Why do you want me to sleep in the day?
- 1:06:34Speaker 2: Please know this?
- 1:06:37Speaker 3: Can I tell you? It is the gun you see
- 1:06:40or the knife that you see that makes you afraid.
- 1:06:42The one you don't see is the one machines cannot diagnose.
- 1:06:46You just know there is pounding headache, and machines say
- 1:06:49you are absolutely fine, absolutely fine, and you know that
- 1:06:56something is wrong some of you. By this revelation you
- 1:06:58are getting now the devil is already threatened because you
- 1:07:01don't know what may have been on the schedule.
- 1:07:04Speaker 2: All their plans will fail again.
- 1:07:06Speaker 3: And they cain because the Word of God stands and
- 1:07:10leaves forever.
- 1:07:16Speaker 2: Are you learning plaicitam? You must learn to live by
- 1:07:23the word.
- 1:07:25Speaker 3: Living carelessly, just living by instincts, by feelings.
- 1:07:29Speaker 2: Will be risking this time.
- 1:07:32Speaker 3: For instance, the Bible says, as many as are led
- 1:07:35by the spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
- 1:07:38It's a risk to not be close to the ministry
- 1:07:40of the Holy Spirit. Death can call you like an invitation,
- 1:07:45and you can just carry yourself and get into trouble.
- 1:07:49There are people who left their houses because of insensitivity
- 1:07:53and lack of discernment.
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: They went and landed into trouble.
- 1:07:57Speaker 3: Somebody is told and just when police arrived, they were
- 1:08:00gathering everybody. You win your house, minding your business, and
- 1:08:03he says, something pushed me. As soon as you came out,
- 1:08:06they said, joined them. You see how people look for trouble.
- 1:08:10You need high level sensitivity. These has seasons where not
- 1:08:14every open door is God's door for you. It's ceta
- 1:08:19and does not only closed doors. He opens doors can
- 1:08:24open a door for you. You call it breakthrough and
- 1:08:26go and crash land yourself in trouble. People are just
- 1:08:31jumping around as are there's one business like this. Everybody
- 1:08:34is doing it. No prayer, no counsel. The Bible says,
- 1:08:37in the multitude of counsel there is safety. You don't ask,
- 1:08:40You jump into it. And the next thing you just
- 1:08:43hear that you're calling you. You call your parents, your age,
- 1:08:48please go and you won't stand there and you begin
- 1:08:51a circle of pain. It's someone learning now. I remember
- 1:09:01one time in Zaria here somebody told me that you
- 1:09:04used to hear a voice. He didn't know anything about
- 1:09:06the realm of the spirit, and.
- 1:09:07Speaker 2: He will hear physical voice. This is the voice of
- 1:09:10a departed person who had gone calling him, you know.
- 1:09:15Speaker 3: And he thought you was a dream, you know, like
- 1:09:17your sister is. Like you are are dreaming.
- 1:09:19Speaker 2: You are awake.
- 1:09:20Speaker 3: And I told him, I said, listen, when you get up,
- 1:09:23don't just say yes and whatever.
- 1:09:25Speaker 2: It is, yes, it's giving it permission.
- 1:09:27Speaker 3: You take your Bible and say, the living and the
- 1:09:29dead have nothing in common. There is there is, there
- 1:09:32is a gulf of separation. Answer yes to the call
- 1:09:37of death and die for no reason. You wake up
- 1:09:40and there is a demonic dream Detroy you inside coughing,
- 1:09:44you're burying you. When you get up, don't say I'm finished.
- 1:09:47In the name of Jesus, I take authority over that dream.
- 1:09:50Everything remains as a fiction in the realm of the
- 1:09:52spirit until your faith allows you to find expression here
- 1:10:01same time, in the name of Jesus, I decree and
- 1:10:04declare that I am exceptional, saying the name of Jesus,
- 1:10:10I am anointed, saying the name of Jesus, I am blessed.
- 1:10:15In the name of Jesus, I am favored. In the
- 1:10:18name of Jesus. The word of God defends me. I
- 1:10:21shall not die, but leave and declare the works of
- 1:10:26the Lord. Decree and declare, say, men are sent by
- 1:10:30God to hold my hands and to lift me. Now,
- 1:10:34when men say there is a casting down, I make
- 1:10:36a declaration that.
- 1:10:38Speaker 6: For me and my family here will be a lifting up.
- 1:10:41In the name of Jesus Christ.
- 1:10:51Speaker 2: That's how you leave. That's how you leave.
- 1:10:56Speaker 3: You must convince yourself that this is the integrity of God.
- 1:11:00Speaker 2: Please sit down.
- 1:11:01Speaker 3: Let's touch on the remaining two very quickly. Number three,
- 1:11:04what is the third strategy for these perilous times? Are
- 1:11:09you ready? Number three? Embrace unity and the power of
- 1:11:17corporate Christian living. Embrace unity and the power of corporate
- 1:11:24Christian living.
- 1:11:28Speaker 2: Write it down.
- 1:11:29Speaker 3: Please embrace unity and the power of corporate Christian living. Hebrews,
- 1:11:39Chapter ten, from verse twenty four and twenty five. There
- 1:11:44is a dimension of God's power that is invested.
- 1:11:47Speaker 2: In unity and in a Christian community living.
- 1:11:51Speaker 3: In fact, you've heard me say this that the key
- 1:11:54to sustaining Kingdom values is Christian community living. While it
- 1:11:59is true that we more be people of the secret place,
- 1:12:01when it has to do with excelling in the cosmos,
- 1:12:04believers must not the power of unity and the power
- 1:12:08of corporate living. Isolation is a risk, especially at times
- 1:12:12like this. It says, let us consider one another to
- 1:12:17provoke on to love and to good works verse twenty five.
- 1:12:21Let us not forsaking the assembling of ourselves as the
- 1:12:27manner of some is, but exhorting one another, and so
- 1:12:33much the more as you see the day approaching, can
- 1:12:39I tell you this corporate living community living is a
- 1:12:44very powerful principle for living and surviving in the cosmos,
- 1:12:50especially among believers. Most believers neglect the fellowship of the breath,
- 1:13:00then neglect interacting with all that a larger body of believers,
- 1:13:05and sometimes that happens in this deception and isolation of
- 1:13:10wanting to know God for myself.
- 1:13:12Speaker 2: On one hand, that is right, I just taught you.
- 1:13:14Speaker 3: But on another yet is a difference between solitude and isolation.
- 1:13:20Solitude is good because you are spending time with God.
- 1:13:23Isolation is the devil deceiving you to strike you. Now
- 1:13:27watch this, how many of you have seen coal? When
- 1:13:30you are burning coal to cook with red hot coal,
- 1:13:34Just carry the tongue and pick one hot one and
- 1:13:37just drop it. Don't do anything. What begins to happen
- 1:13:40to it, it goes. Now, this is what is happening
- 1:13:42to many of you. You've heard me say that one
- 1:13:46of the ways that the devil destroys and damages your
- 1:13:49spiritual life is to give you an impression that you
- 1:13:52are superior and better than everybody. What can I receive
- 1:13:55from my pastor I have more revelation than him? The
- 1:13:59man is not even doing it, And that pride will
- 1:14:02bring believers.
- 1:14:03Speaker 2: Into a point of isolation. That's it.
- 1:14:08Speaker 3: Let me tell you this community living is powerful because,
- 1:14:13among the many things it does, it can help to
- 1:14:16bring checks and balances to your life. Somebody can easily
- 1:14:21observe when you practice community Christian living, that's something that
- 1:14:25has been wrong with your prayer life.
- 1:14:27Speaker 2: Everybody will be afraid.
- 1:14:29Speaker 3: But one or two people who have the courage, who
- 1:14:31approach you in love and say, I've noticed that you
- 1:14:34are not really open for prayer. What's the problem, and
- 1:14:37the Holy Spirit will echo through your words and jack
- 1:14:40up your prayer life. It is dangerous when you are alone,
- 1:14:44especially in pride, because even at the height of your fall,
- 1:14:48sat Time will still flatter you that you are all
- 1:14:50right until.
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: The day he strikes you once and it's done with you.
- 1:14:55Are we together?
- 1:14:56Speaker 4: Yes?
- 1:15:01Speaker 2: Community living.
- 1:15:03Speaker 3: When you read your Bible, Jesus was never There were
- 1:15:07a few times when he was alone and only to
- 1:15:10retreat and sleep. Even as Jesus angels minister to him,
- 1:15:16they always came around him. And then he was with
- 1:15:19his disciples, and he was with the brethren.
- 1:15:22Speaker 2: RADI your Bible.
- 1:15:28Speaker 3: Time for coyn onia, No, no, no, no, there's nothing there.
- 1:15:31I'm not I would just I would download the message
- 1:15:34one day. That's how it starts the trap of deception.
- 1:15:40Community living is powerful even from a security standpoint. For
- 1:15:47years in this ministry, and I think we still do.
- 1:15:49We have the data base, by the grace of God
- 1:15:53of the membership, so that if for any reason there
- 1:15:57is a call for any security response.
- 1:16:01Speaker 2: I think that that that.
- 1:16:04Speaker 3: Became weak when this dn D thing and the rest
- 1:16:07and started coming.
- 1:16:08Speaker 2: If not, I remember, and we had enjoyed it.
- 1:16:11Speaker 3: The first time we use it was after one post
- 1:16:14election violence. I think it was twenty eleven or so,
- 1:16:17and then the other one that happened I can't remember
- 1:16:20now what year it happened. It is very very important.
- 1:16:24Community living can help to protect you. There are many
- 1:16:29of you who, for instance, I'm showing you wisdom cheese.
- 1:16:32You can get up just because you have some money
- 1:16:34and entire community where you are the only person of
- 1:16:38faith and now dwell smuggle yourself in one apartment where
- 1:16:42everybody is not around.
- 1:16:43Speaker 2: Only you, the thief.
- 1:16:45Speaker 3: Does not need to hide. You open the door and
- 1:16:47say Teef, I'm here. Just come out and lie that
- 1:16:52and keep shouting while I steal, because nobody will hear
- 1:16:55you from that point. These are wisdom principles that believers
- 1:16:59don't have. There are times that some of you have
- 1:17:01sent me text messages and said I am a social place,
- 1:17:03and I told them.
- 1:17:04Speaker 2: No, look for house so of place I can't support
- 1:17:08you from it. Are you getting blessed now?
- 1:17:13Speaker 3: I'm trying to be very sincere with you, especially if
- 1:17:17you're a family person, you are moving to a region.
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: There are things you should look at.
- 1:17:21Speaker 3: The proximity to security aid, proximity to medical aid, proximity
- 1:17:26to the market. This are some of the things they
- 1:17:28did this in architecture up an a regional planning. This
- 1:17:32is not even just about spirituality. There are factors that
- 1:17:35you look at. How many minutes will it take you
- 1:17:42so that you don't die the death of a fool.
- 1:17:44There are many people who would have been rescued on
- 1:17:47many grounds if only there were within a space and
- 1:17:51a community where they will help you. There was a
- 1:17:54time that the apostle wanted to enter city and he
- 1:17:56was afraid. He said, do not be afraid. I have
- 1:17:58many people in this city. Are we together? It is
- 1:18:05very very important. There are many things who have done
- 1:18:09as a ministry, by the privilege of God's grace. We've
- 1:18:12invested through the years to maintain strategic relationships, first out
- 1:18:16of a heart of love, but then by wisdom to
- 1:18:20maintain relationship across religions, and the rest with people as
- 1:18:24much as God will grant us that grace, and it
- 1:18:26has worked in many regards. Community living is a very
- 1:18:33powerful key.
- 1:18:34Speaker 2: There are some of you.
- 1:18:35Speaker 3: You don't know anybody in the House of God, as
- 1:18:38soon as they share the grace made the grace of
- 1:18:40our Lord Jesus Christ. You look at everybody as they
- 1:18:42well you who are superior. My father is a senator,
- 1:18:45my mother is a works in a n MPC.
- 1:18:47Speaker 2: And you push down everybody and.
- 1:18:50Speaker 3: That person you are pushing has access to ten soldiers
- 1:18:53and five policemen. He has their number. Fruitful means be relational.
- 1:19:02If you are not relational, you cannot be fruitful.
- 1:19:06Speaker 2: Are we together? Yes?
- 1:19:15Speaker 3: Community living. There are times you may not even have
- 1:19:18the faith to pray. Maybe something has happened to you,
- 1:19:21a loved one is sick. You need brethren to agree
- 1:19:24with you. You are not in any department, You're not anywhere,
- 1:19:28and you just call anybody and say, okay, I'm a
- 1:19:31member of going on your God. Everybody to pray for me.
- 1:19:34What department? I don't have any department. You see, it's
- 1:19:36going to be difficult. Even in the area of receiving
- 1:19:40aid and help. There are people who go to every
- 1:19:44church and say I make Christians and say they must
- 1:19:46help you.
- 1:19:47Speaker 2: There is no ministry that works like that.
- 1:19:49Speaker 3: No matter how compassionate, you can't show up in people's
- 1:19:53destinies and say give me this thing. Worship team is
- 1:19:56celebrating something. You come and sit down there too. You
- 1:19:59collect from there, prayer depart, and you are not committed anywhere.
- 1:20:03Speaker 2: Community living is powerful. Allelujah.
- 1:20:09Speaker 3: A number of you here I presume have never released
- 1:20:12in a crisis. My stay and my time in George
- 1:20:15and Zaria have been exposed to a few crisis periods.
- 1:20:22I remember four days before ninety eleven. Seventh eleven was
- 1:20:27when the first major in our modern story now of
- 1:20:31just crisis happened, and the strength of the believers was
- 1:20:34They're being united together around Even if you don't have
- 1:20:38the power of defense, at least you are around where
- 1:20:40they can disseminate information. Don't downplay what I'm telling you.
- 1:20:44I'm not scaring you. I'm only saying there needs to
- 1:20:46be wisdom. There are some of you right now, as weak.
- 1:20:49Speaker 2: As you are, you are the strongest person among everybody.
- 1:20:52Speaker 1: You know.
- 1:20:52Speaker 2: You are in trouble. Are we together? Yes?
- 1:21:08Speaker 3: Community living There are many people who are being rescued
- 1:21:13simply because certain things they aid was close to them,
- 1:21:18because of the power of community living.
- 1:21:28Speaker 2: Survival Strategy number.
- 1:21:29Speaker 3: Three Embrace unity and corporate Christian living. Embrace unity and
- 1:21:38corporate Christian living.
- 1:21:39Speaker 2: Please look up. Let me tell you this.
- 1:21:42Speaker 3: To live with other people unity has a price. You
- 1:21:46most invest in the well being of people too. You
- 1:21:50never tell anybody happy birthday. You never tell anybody happy
- 1:21:54and investory. You are in your world all by yourself.
- 1:21:56Good things are happy. You don't have a friend. There
- 1:21:59is no if nothing from you. Your one Mira has
- 1:22:02never been spent to buy somebody a shoe to say,
- 1:22:04God bless you. I assure you when the DA days come,
- 1:22:08everybody will leave you that way. You know, growing up
- 1:22:11as little children, we used to see our dear parents
- 1:22:14every wedding.
- 1:22:15Speaker 2: They are there, every burial.
- 1:22:16Speaker 3: You are there, and you'll be wondering is it most
- 1:22:19You'll be everywhere the foolishness of children. Now that God
- 1:22:23has helped us to grow, we can see the wisdom
- 1:22:25behind what they're doing. It's an investment. First, it's out
- 1:22:28of love, but it's also an investment. You are not
- 1:22:31there when another person's child is getting married, Your childhood
- 1:22:34will marry. You are not there when somebody is crying
- 1:22:37you to One day you will find.
- 1:22:39Speaker 2: Cause for tears. A world is enough for the wise.
- 1:22:45Are we together?
- 1:22:47Speaker 3: The body of believers are celebrating something. It's none of
- 1:22:50your business. Some of you here that the particular charge
- 1:22:53or denomination or whatever it is, it's having a program.
- 1:22:57Speaker 2: You can't sleep, even if it's two thousand and ner.
- 1:23:00Speaker 3: It doesn't matter whether it's your church or not, oh
- 1:23:03past or it may not be much.
- 1:23:04Speaker 2: What does by recharch card with it?
- 1:23:07Speaker 3: Can I tell you the days that we're living, your
- 1:23:10survival will be more than my church mentality. It has
- 1:23:13to be a body of Christ's mentality. Are we together now?
- 1:23:17Speaker 2: Yes? There are cheap victories that we will lose if
- 1:23:22we do not.
- 1:23:23Speaker 3: Understand the power of unity. May God grant us grace
- 1:23:27to be united in the name of Jesus Christ. Number four,
- 1:23:36What is the fourth strategy for surviving at these times?
- 1:23:42Write this down the preserving power of priestly and prophetic blessings,
- 1:23:51the fourth Biblical strategy that grants you the capacity to
- 1:23:56thrive and to command dominion even at perila times.
- 1:24:01Speaker 2: I wrote here.
- 1:24:01Speaker 3: The preserving power of priestly and prophetic blessings. The preserving
- 1:24:09power of priestly and prophetic blessings.
- 1:24:21Speaker 2: Can I tell you please look up.
- 1:24:24Speaker 3: I assure you by God that aside from the Old
- 1:24:28Testament of the Old and the New Covenant, that God
- 1:24:32has personal covenant with men. I hope you know that
- 1:24:36that by reason of our personal work with God, we
- 1:24:39can get to a point where God brands his dealings
- 1:24:42with us through the sacrifice of alignment, the election of grace.
- 1:24:47God can brand his dealing with a man through covenant,
- 1:24:52and that gives that man a unique and superior platform
- 1:24:57to deal with God. It is true there are people
- 1:24:59in the Bible called the friends of God.
- 1:25:01Speaker 2: He didn't call everybody friend.
- 1:25:05Speaker 3: When it was time for God to come and destroy
- 1:25:08Sodom and go Morah. You thought you would just come
- 1:25:11to people at random. He came to one man. In fact,
- 1:25:14let's look at it. I think I wrote it down here,
- 1:25:17Genesis chapter eighteen. Please from verse seventeen. I don't know
- 1:25:20where we stop, but at least let's start from seventeen.
- 1:25:23Genesis eighteen. Please give it to us. This is God
- 1:25:26coming down to meet Abraham. He's about to destroy Sodom
- 1:25:32and go mora question. Was Lord not a righteous man?
- 1:25:36He was a righteous man. But God did not come
- 1:25:39to Lord. He came to Abraham. And here's what God said.
- 1:25:43And the Lord said, eighteen seventeen Genesis. Shall I hide
- 1:25:48from Abraham? The thing which I do, this is friendship.
- 1:25:53Now next verse, saying that Abraham shall surely become a
- 1:25:59great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the
- 1:26:02earth shall be blessed by him. Uh huh, next verse,
- 1:26:08For I know him that you will command his children
- 1:26:11and his household after him, that they shall keep the
- 1:26:15way of the Lord to do justice and judgment, that
- 1:26:18the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he had
- 1:26:21spoken of him. Now follow carefully, since we've started reading legiods,
- 1:26:25finish off. And the Lord said, because the cry of
- 1:26:29Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is
- 1:26:33very grievous, I will go down now and see whether
- 1:26:39they have done together according to the cry of it
- 1:26:42which is common to me.
- 1:26:44Speaker 2: And if not, I will know.
- 1:26:47Speaker 3: And the men turned their faces from Venie and went
- 1:26:51towards Sodom.
- 1:26:52Speaker 2: But Abraham stood yet before the Lord. Watch friendship.
- 1:26:56Speaker 3: This is a superior level of relationship. And Abraham drewnir
- 1:27:01and said, wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked.
- 1:27:08Speaker 2: There are men and there are men. We are all
- 1:27:11sons of God.
- 1:27:12Speaker 3: But I assure you, aside from the general platform where
- 1:27:17God relates and deals with people, there are privileges that
- 1:27:20people have accessed in God by reason of the sacrifice
- 1:27:24of alignment, or they have assumed there's tatos in the
- 1:27:27kingdom called the friend of God. I hope that one
- 1:27:30day God will grant us grace and I will teach
- 1:27:32you what it means to be a friend of God.
- 1:27:37Most people sing it carelessly, and we think a friend
- 1:27:40of God just means the one that God loves.
- 1:27:42Speaker 2: No, no, no, the friend of God.
- 1:27:46Speaker 3: You see, it is a tatus that God can grant
- 1:27:49and confine upon you.
- 1:27:51Speaker 2: There are many privileges that come with being a friend
- 1:27:54of God.
- 1:27:55Speaker 3: One of it is that as a friend of God,
- 1:27:58you cannot go to Hell. If for any reason you
- 1:28:03choose to start going down, he will take your life physically,
- 1:28:06but not that you.
- 1:28:07Speaker 2: Go to Hell. Leave that for another discussion. Paradventure.
- 1:28:13Speaker 3: If they now watch this paradventure he's discussing now if
- 1:28:18there be fifty righteous within a city, who is negotiating?
- 1:28:23Speaker 2: Now? When's the krier begged?
- 1:28:28Speaker 3: Remember the Cary in the Bible, the Kara tried this
- 1:28:31thing Abraham is doing as a prophet.
- 1:28:34Speaker 2: What happened?
- 1:28:35Speaker 3: There were consequences. The carrier's mouth was shot until John
- 1:28:41was born. And here is a man fifty righteous within
- 1:28:46that city. Will now also destroy and spare not the
- 1:28:50place for the fifty. Next verse it says that be
- 1:28:55far from d to do this after the manner to
- 1:28:57slay the righteous with the wicked, and that the righteous
- 1:29:01should be as the wicked. That be far from thee
- 1:29:04shall not the judge of all the heath do right?
- 1:29:07Speaker 2: Look at look.
- 1:29:08Speaker 3: At who This guy's not pray, No, he's talking to God.
- 1:29:12Next verse, the Lord said, if I find in Sodom
- 1:29:17fifty righteous within the city.
- 1:29:19Speaker 2: Then I will spare all the place for their sake.
- 1:29:22Sin two.
- 1:29:23Speaker 3: And Abraham answered and said, behold, now I have taken
- 1:29:27upon me to speak onto the Lord, which I am
- 1:29:30both dust and ashes this man. Next verse peradventure, there
- 1:29:35shall lack five of the fifty righteous, will now destroy
- 1:29:39the city for lack of five. And he said, if
- 1:29:42I find forty and five, I will not destroy it.
- 1:29:47And he spaken to him yet again, and said, remember
- 1:29:50all these politics is there is just a family he
- 1:29:53wants to defend.
- 1:29:55Speaker 2: Lort adventure.
- 1:30:01Speaker 3: Next verse you say you're already tired, even you who
- 1:30:03is reading the story, you already wear I said, what
- 1:30:05is he looking for? Those are the privileges that love
- 1:30:09and friendship provide. And he said unto him, oh, let
- 1:30:13not the Lord be angry, and I will speak par adventure.
- 1:30:17There shall toty be found. And he said, I will
- 1:30:20not do it if I find toty. Dere were ready
- 1:30:24to thirty three, and he said, behold now I have
- 1:30:28taken upon me to speak onto the Lord. Par adventure
- 1:30:32there shall be twenty found there, and he said, I
- 1:30:35will not destroy it for twenty sake. He didn't stop
- 1:30:37there thirty three.
- 1:30:41Speaker 2: And he said, oh, let not the Lord be angry.
- 1:30:44Speaker 3: I will speak yet, but this one's par adventure ten
- 1:30:48shall be found there, and he said, I will not
- 1:30:51destroy for ten sake. Thirty three. And the Lord went
- 1:30:56his way. As soon as he had left communing, he
- 1:31:00called all that thing communion. It was not a question
- 1:31:03and answer session. The Bible says it was what communion,
- 1:31:12and Abraham returned to his place. Can I tell you
- 1:31:15the truth. There are people who have found power with God.
- 1:31:18There are people who have found grace with God. When
- 1:31:21he met that young virgin girl, he said, you were favored,
- 1:31:25highly favored. It was because she was highly favored that
- 1:31:31she asks the Angel the same things the carier, as,
- 1:31:33how shall these things be?
- 1:31:35Speaker 2: Seeing that I know not a man.
- 1:31:37Speaker 3: He took time to explain to her cheerfully, the career
- 1:31:42was annointed, but was.
- 1:31:44Speaker 2: Not highly favored. Are we together?
- 1:32:00Speaker 3: Ezekiel Chapter twenty two, from verse thirty and thirty one
- 1:32:04popular scripture. I sought for a man among them were
- 1:32:10caught in because of time, So we wrap up now.
- 1:32:13Speaker 2: I sought for a.
- 1:32:14Speaker 3: Man among them that should make up the hedge and
- 1:32:19stand in the gap before me for.
- 1:32:21Speaker 2: The land, that I should not destroy it.
- 1:32:25Speaker 3: But I found non next verse Therefore, I have poured
- 1:32:28out my indignation upon them. I have consumed them with
- 1:32:32the fire of my wrath. It says their own way.
- 1:32:36Have I recompensed upon their head, saith the Lord God.
- 1:32:39I sought for a man. I sought for a man
- 1:32:43Isaiah sixty five and verse eight. Very powerful scripture, very
- 1:32:48powerful scripture. Thus saith the Lord, please look up as
- 1:32:54the new wine is found in the cluster, and one
- 1:32:59say it, destroy it?
- 1:33:01Speaker 2: Not? Why, for there is a blessing in it.
- 1:33:05Speaker 3: So I will do for my salvant's sake, not for
- 1:33:09their sake, for my seven's sake, that I may not.
- 1:33:12Speaker 2: Destroy them all, destroy it not.
- 1:33:16Speaker 3: It means that there are individuals that God has granted grace.
- 1:33:20They complete the cause by reason of the priestly and
- 1:33:24the prophetic office. They can stand and declare that you
- 1:33:28are blessed. You're attempting me to go to numbers twenty three.
- 1:33:33Let's rite numbers twenty three. Let's start from verse one.
- 1:33:37Let's see if we can court it numbers twenty three.
- 1:33:42Remember this is the story of Ballam and Barak. Let
- 1:33:45me read a bit of it for you. And Ballam
- 1:33:47said on to Ballach build there are seven altars, and
- 1:33:52prepare here seven oxen and seven rams.
- 1:33:56Speaker 2: Uh huh. And Ballach said, and Ballach did.
- 1:34:00Speaker 3: Balam had spoken, and ballack am Balam offered every altar,
- 1:34:06a bullock and a ram auhah. Let's hurry up, And
- 1:34:09Balam said on to Ballack watch this now stand by
- 1:34:12thy burnt offering, and I will go peradventure. The Lord
- 1:34:16will come to me, And whatsoever he showed me, I
- 1:34:20would tell you.
- 1:34:21Speaker 2: And he went onto a high place.
- 1:34:24Speaker 3: And God met Balam and said unto him, I have
- 1:34:28prepared seven altars, and I have offered upon every altar.
- 1:34:32Speaker 2: A bullock and a ram verse five.
- 1:34:35Speaker 3: And the Lord put a word in Balam's mouth and said,
- 1:34:38returned to Ballack, and thirst shall thou speak?
- 1:34:42Speaker 2: Verse six.
- 1:34:44Speaker 3: And he returned onto him, and lo, he stood by
- 1:34:47his burnt sacrifice. And all the princes of Moab, remember
- 1:34:51they were trying to woo the prophet to cause God's people.
- 1:34:55And he took up his parable and said, Ballad, the
- 1:34:58king of Moab had brought me from us out of
- 1:35:01the mountains of the east, saying, come cost me Jacob, and.
- 1:35:05Speaker 2: Come defy Israel. This is what you wanted. I want
- 1:35:09to caust Jacob and his generation. This is what it means.
- 1:35:13Next verse nine.
- 1:35:17Speaker 3: How shall I cause whom God had not cost? And
- 1:35:21how shall I defy whom the Lord has not defied?
- 1:35:27For from the top of the rocks I see him,
- 1:35:29and from the hills I behold him. Lo, the people
- 1:35:33shall dwell alone and shall not be reckoned among the
- 1:35:36nations Verse ten.
- 1:35:38Speaker 2: Who can count the.
- 1:35:39Speaker 3: Dust of Jacob and number the fourth part of Israel?
- 1:35:42Let me die the death of the righteous, and let.
- 1:35:45Speaker 2: My last n be like this. You're speaking in parable.
- 1:35:49Speaker 3: And Ballack said to Balain, watch this what hast thou
- 1:35:52done onto me? He said, I took THEE to cost
- 1:35:56my enemies. And behold thou hast blessed them all together.
- 1:36:00May that be so for someone in the name of
- 1:36:03Jesus Christ, that anything that looks or represents a cost,
- 1:36:08that when it gets to you, there is already a
- 1:36:11pill dop of priestly and prophetic blessings, Allelujah. Next verse
- 1:36:20And he answered and said, Mosign, not take heed to
- 1:36:24speak that which the Lord has put in my mouth.
- 1:36:26He's saying it's not my fault. And Ballack said onto him, come,
- 1:36:30I pray THEE with me to another place. They shifted
- 1:36:33another location from whence.
- 1:36:34Speaker 2: Thou see mayor see them?
- 1:36:37Speaker 3: Thou shall see but the utmost part of them, and
- 1:36:41shall not see them all, and cost me them from them.
- 1:36:45So he took him to another location, and he brought
- 1:36:47him into the field of Sophiem and build their seven altars,
- 1:36:52and offered a bullock and a ram again fifteen, WA's
- 1:36:55what happened?
- 1:36:56Speaker 2: And he said on to Ballack.
- 1:36:58Speaker 3: Stand by here I bond offering while I meet the
- 1:37:02Lord yonder. In fact, let's jump to verse twenty. Let's
- 1:37:07jump to verse twenty wi envy twenty three. Behold, he
- 1:37:11now went again, I have received commandment to bless and
- 1:37:16he hath blessed, and I cannot reverse it. I cannot
- 1:37:22reverse it. No enchantment and no divination against Jacob. This
- 1:37:26is the scripture, if you're looking for where it is.
- 1:37:29Next verse, behold, he said he had not held iniquity
- 1:37:34in Jacob, neither had he seen perverseness in Israel. The
- 1:37:38Lord is God, The Lord is God is with him,
- 1:37:42and the shout of a king is among them. Twenty
- 1:37:45two God brought them out of Egypt. He hath as
- 1:37:50it where the strength of a unicorn the last verse.
- 1:37:53Speaker 2: Now we'll just stop at twenty three.
- 1:37:55Speaker 3: Surely, Racho theater, there is no enchantment against Jacob. Neither
- 1:38:02is there any divination against Joshua Salesman. According to this
- 1:38:07time it shall be said of Jacob and Israel, what
- 1:38:10had God.
- 1:38:11Speaker 2: Wrot that means there is no enchantment.
- 1:38:14Speaker 3: No matter the ill speakings of people, there is an
- 1:38:17immunity that the priestly and prophetic blessing brings upon your life.
- 1:38:22In the name of Jesus, who are going to speak
- 1:38:24over your life this night, and every yoke of darkness,
- 1:38:27every enchantment that is not of God standing your way
- 1:38:32by the power that rays class from the death, it
- 1:38:35must give way over your life.
- 1:38:37Speaker 2: You are blessed, and that no man can cost you.
- 1:38:45Speaker 3: Allelujah, the preserving power of priestly and prophetic blessings. Please start,
- 1:38:56We're going to pray numbers chapter six. Let's start from
- 1:39:02verse twenty two, number six, twenty two And the Lord
- 1:39:07speak on to Moses, saying, speak onto Aaron and to
- 1:39:13his sons, saying on these wise, shall thou bless the
- 1:39:20children of Israel, saying onto them, the Lord bless.
- 1:39:24Speaker 2: Thee and keep thee.
- 1:39:27Speaker 3: The Lord make his face shine upon them, and the
- 1:39:31gracious onto they. The Lord lived up his countenance upon thee,
- 1:39:37and give you peace. Next verse, and they shall put
- 1:39:40my name upon the children of Israel, and I will
- 1:39:44bless them.
- 1:39:48Speaker 2: Ah man, a.
- 1:39:54Speaker 4: Man.
- 1:40:15Speaker 3: The Lord sent me here tonight to handle these keys,
- 1:40:19that it is possible to win and to rise even
- 1:40:22in perilous times. That when men say there is a
- 1:40:25casting down, there is a system. There is a strategy
- 1:40:29already built by the intelligence of God. Strategy Number one
- 1:40:33is that you are strong in the Lord, your strength
- 1:40:36derived from your knowing Him. The study of Scripture, a
- 1:40:41rich prayer life, a passion for fellowship with the Holy Spirit.
- 1:40:47Number two the determination to live by the principles of
- 1:40:53the Kingdom, having the readiness to george every disobedience if and.
- 1:40:58Speaker 2: When your obedience is complete.
- 1:41:00Speaker 3: When you live by the principles of the Kingdom, now
- 1:41:03you are walking by faith. You can commit God's integrity
- 1:41:07through the thick and tin to come for you. Listen,
- 1:41:10We're not the first, you know. I'm a few days
- 1:41:14ago I was watching Kenneth Copeland.
- 1:41:17Speaker 2: He's in his eighties.
- 1:41:18Speaker 3: Now there are few people have met, and I'm having
- 1:41:23a heightened regard and respect, especially for elderly people who
- 1:41:28are of faith and have survived, whose lives have become testaments,
- 1:41:33because I'm seeing and realizing again afresh that this journey
- 1:41:37is far and God has granted me the privilege of
- 1:41:40meeting a few people. The oldest of them will soon
- 1:41:42be nineteen. Now this man are alive, healthy, sound. I
- 1:41:48was watching Kenneth Copeland. This man in his eighties. He
- 1:41:53still flies himself. He works strong, he's not holding his stick,
- 1:41:59tentition complete, his brain still working with intelligence.
- 1:42:05Speaker 2: He remembers everything.
- 1:42:07Speaker 3: And this man said this thing in the days of
- 1:42:09his youth and has proved it with his life.
- 1:42:11Speaker 2: The Bible says we should follow them.
- 1:42:13Speaker 3: There are some them who, through faith and patience believe me,
- 1:42:18with childlife faith have obtained the promise. Many have come
- 1:42:22with arrogance, calling them children. There are nowhere to be
- 1:42:25found today, but this week will have stood the test
- 1:42:27of time. I remember one of our dear Father's bishop
- 1:42:31on who many of you have met him, especially those
- 1:42:34in Abuja. That man is going to be I think
- 1:42:37he's eighty four this year or eighty five.
- 1:42:40Speaker 2: You will run with him, and he will run faster
- 1:42:42than you, strong.
- 1:42:44Speaker 3: And alife, agile and powerful in his right mind. And
- 1:42:48when I sit with him, I don't do Man of
- 1:42:50God apossible. I just said, Daddy, please, when you wear
- 1:42:54my level, what did God?
- 1:42:55Speaker 2: What did you do?
- 1:42:59Speaker 3: They would describe for you every negative thing that has
- 1:43:02happened on earth from the time they were born.
- 1:43:04Speaker 2: Some of them were face to face with danger.
- 1:43:07Speaker 3: They met and robots many times with guns and whatever,
- 1:43:10and they're still there, standing strong.
- 1:43:13Speaker 2: It would take a fool.
- 1:43:14Speaker 3: Do not think they have something to say?
- 1:43:17Speaker 2: Are we together? Were privileged to have our father's here
- 1:43:21And most of.
- 1:43:22Speaker 3: These people began ministry before some of us were born,
- 1:43:27and they're still standing today. Some of us have come
- 1:43:29with our huge full generation and we're nowhere to be found.
- 1:43:33But they're standing strong, alife and on fire. Let me
- 1:43:37tell you the truth. When God brings this kind of
- 1:43:40people to your life and they speak over your life,
- 1:43:43they draw from the depth of their covenance with God.
- 1:43:47And when they make decrease over your life, heavens, damn, sis.
- 1:43:57Speaker 2: Allelujah.
- 1:44:02Speaker 3: Remember I told you my experience in equity. I've shared
- 1:44:05it with you. Those old people that went to kneel
- 1:44:08down for them to pray over me. You thought that
- 1:44:11they would look at you and say, oh, Man of God,
- 1:44:13you are the one I've been hearing about.
- 1:44:14Speaker 2: Kneel down, and the man began to run prophecies in Euroba.
- 1:44:22Speaker 3: And in all fairness, I didn't care what he was saying,
- 1:44:25all I know is whoever God preserves like this.
- 1:44:28Speaker 2: For someone to die at one hundred and.
- 1:44:30Speaker 3: Thirty six, one thirty six standing and went honorably, and
- 1:44:40his wife, that man's wife was still standing there, most
- 1:44:44likely one hundred and something.
- 1:44:46Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 1:44:46Speaker 3: I can't remember exactly what standing. You would think she's
- 1:44:49my elder sister. Can I tell you your limitation is relative?
- 1:44:56There are people who God, by the privilege of God's.
- 1:44:59Speaker 2: Christ and the power of light, has.
- 1:45:01Speaker 3: Lifted them beyond what is a limitation for you? Let
- 1:45:04me tell you something. We going through the value of
- 1:45:06the shadow of death. When you come out of uncomfortable situations,
- 1:45:10you never come alone. You come out with an anointing,
- 1:45:13a grace that can now empower people. A woman who
- 1:45:17just gets married and gives bet, that's wonderful. But a
- 1:45:19woman who have survived the mockery and the pain for decades.
- 1:45:23When that woman gives bet, it is not only a
- 1:45:25child that will come out.
- 1:45:26Speaker 2: It's a child and a mantle. Two things will come
- 1:45:29out from her womb.
- 1:45:30Speaker 3: Any bodyship prays for from the depth of her pain.
- 1:45:34I tell you a man of God who may have
- 1:45:36suffered in ministry gone through pain. When that man stands
- 1:45:41to bless you out of his pain, scarce has treasures
- 1:45:45in the realm of the spirit. Is to let no
- 1:45:47man trouble me, for I bear upon my body the
- 1:45:51mark of Christ. Why do we honor those who have
- 1:45:55gone ahead of us? We don't just honor their bodies,
- 1:45:58We honor the sacrifice. Many of them have made mistakes.
- 1:46:02They have used their lives as guinea.
- 1:46:03Speaker 2: Pigs for you to escape.
- 1:46:07Speaker 3: When you get to heaven today, you will know Jesus
- 1:46:09not just by the crown on his head and the
- 1:46:12glory around him. He will be the only one carrying
- 1:46:14a unique car on his hand.
- 1:46:19Speaker 2: Away together, Listen to me. There are all.
- 1:46:24Speaker 3: Kinds of sounds, rumors of wars. I keep in touch
- 1:46:30with Zaria, and we've seen the things that have happened
- 1:46:33in Carduna, and all of that are military people. They
- 1:46:37give us intelligence reports and all the things that have
- 1:46:40happened in time past, the blast of the train and
- 1:46:44several things. And believe us now in fear and even
- 1:46:48in Zaria, pockets of things, kidnappings. Let me tell you this.
- 1:46:52Among the many things I came to do, two assignments.
- 1:46:54Number one is to strengthen you, to let you know
- 1:46:57that there is nothing new under the sun. There is
- 1:47:08nothing under the song, neil under the song. I remember
- 1:47:16when I was staying in Dharaka. In fact, there was
- 1:47:19a time that I would be studying and the tea
- 1:47:21will come, it will open the window. I just say, guy,
- 1:47:23and he will just go because I mean it. I
- 1:47:26stand by the God of Heaven like literally, I'm not
- 1:47:30I'm not lying. There was no point chasing him again,
- 1:47:35it was it was.
- 1:47:38Speaker 2: Yeah, m hm. I wish I could sing this song.
- 1:47:47Speaker 7: There will be victory in that camp had a shout
- 1:47:51of l should die. Every enemy will flee from the fire,
- 1:47:57something like that.
- 1:47:59Speaker 3: No, I don't even try it. If we don't know it,
- 1:48:01or singer another song. Pray are way together? Can I
- 1:48:07tell you this, refuse listen to my message.
- 1:48:11Speaker 2: Fear no evil.
- 1:48:12Speaker 3: You can listen to it. I preach it here on
- 1:48:14this altar. Fear no evil, Fear no evil.
- 1:48:20Speaker 2: I refuse to fear. The Lord stands by me like
- 1:48:23a mighty, terrible warrior. I'm not alone. I'm no longer
- 1:48:33slave to feed Hi.
- 1:48:44Speaker 6: I'm no longer slave to see.
- 1:48:53Speaker 4: Hi.
- 1:48:58Speaker 2: Now hear me?
- 1:49:00Speaker 3: What when to pray these four strategies into our lives.
- 1:49:04Speaker 2: Strategy number one, be strong in the Lord.
- 1:49:08Speaker 3: Lord, grant me the grace to know you in the
- 1:49:10deeper and reach away.

- 1:49:29in the place of prayer, to know you in the
- 1:49:32place of fellowship.
- 1:49:46Speaker 6: I draw my sight from my union to Christ. I
- 1:49:51am one. You take sorry off with you, raise up
- 1:49:55with you. Now hear me.
- 1:50:15Speaker 2: Listen.
- 1:50:16Speaker 3: You're going to pray for the grace to live by
- 1:50:19the principles of the Kingdom. But you cannot live by
- 1:50:22what you don't know. Lord, a fashion to such and
- 1:50:27not the principles of the Kingdom and the grace to

- 1:51:31may not agree here and there doctrinally we may have reservations,
- 1:51:35but it's too smallly reason to divide us, because let

- 1:51:41your mouth and pray for the grace to be united,
- 1:51:45and then extended.

- 2:06:48Speaker 2: In the name of Jesus Chrise.
- 2:06:51Speaker 3: And Yemmy, Jemmy, because of the several things happening around
- 2:06:57Zariah and environs, from the sadly, the closure of institutions,
- 2:07:07and then because of the insecurity, many people have had
- 2:07:10to go to find refuge or some even relocated. Sadly,
- 2:07:14I came the last time, and I saw what happened
- 2:07:16in Graceland over I think agreeably about two hundred houses,
- 2:07:19if I'm not mistaken, about five hundred or so houses,
- 2:07:23and so several people. So it's looking like it's becoming
- 2:07:27a desolate place. But let me tell you, in the
- 2:07:30name of Jesus, even as there was darkness in Egypt
- 2:07:33and light in Goshen, I profess I onto.
- 2:07:35Speaker 2: You that in the name that is a pro ball
- 2:07:38names in this season you would not see shame.
- 2:07:43Speaker 3: Strength supplies will come from everywhere for you and your children.
- 2:07:49Speaker 6: In the name of Jesus Christ.
- 2:07:58Speaker 2: Watch this.
- 2:08:00Speaker 3: Historically, every time there is this kind of thing the
- 2:08:05spiritual lives of people, usually it is part of the
- 2:08:08many things that suffers because people don't have time for fellowships.
- 2:08:15I think this is about the longest Colonia has stayed,
- 2:08:17and I'm sure in a while, because I gave them
- 2:08:19instruction to make sure that we finish on time so
- 2:08:22people can go. This is because it's a special session
- 2:08:25we're having here. It shouldn't be that somebody wakes up
- 2:08:29in the morning for God's sake and cannot go out.
- 2:08:31Speaker 2: In peace and return in peace.
- 2:08:34Speaker 3: But how many of you know that everything that happens
- 2:08:36physically is an answer to something in the realm of
- 2:08:40the spirit.
- 2:08:41Speaker 2: Therefore, with standards, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.
- 2:08:45Speaker 3: The spirits that have come into Zariah, this is not
- 2:08:48the first time they are here. They have come before,
- 2:08:50and they were sent back. The same price that send
- 2:08:53them back before sends them back. Agay, send them back, agay.
- 2:09:00The spirits of the West, the spirit of death, the
- 2:09:04spirit of spiritual look oneness.
- 2:09:06Speaker 6: We call you by your name, and.
- 2:09:08Speaker 3: We've burnished you by the God of Heaven, in the
- 2:09:11name of Jesus chribe, we declare peace over the spiritual
- 2:09:19gates of Zariah. We declare peace over the spiritual cads
- 2:09:24of Cartuna. In the name of Jesus.
- 2:09:27Speaker 2: Listen, supernaturally, we stand here tonight. We annoyed all.
- 2:09:32Speaker 3: The physical entrances to Sariah, weather coming from Catsina, coming
- 2:09:37from all of these places. We declared the seal of
- 2:09:40the blood upon them, that everything that is for destruction
- 2:09:44will not cross death.
- 2:09:46Speaker 2: In the name of Jesus Christ. Two more prayers and
- 2:09:55we're done. I want to rebuke the spirit of poverty.
- 2:09:59Speaker 3: I have gotten several text messages from people saying, Apostle,
- 2:10:03please help. Sorry, we are we are not trying to
- 2:10:07take advantage of you board as.
- 2:10:08Speaker 2: It is right now. If you don't help us our children.
- 2:10:11Speaker 3: Do you know sometimes physical ty has come out of
- 2:10:14my eyes and I say, God, this should not be.
- 2:10:16Why will a woman, a man and the children simply
- 2:10:19because of the times. Because in truth, in many regards,
- 2:10:23the economy of Zaria revolves around education and all the
- 2:10:27things that are happening. So when there is a shutdown
- 2:10:30of this sort, it affects many other business. Others may
- 2:10:34leave the city to do some other businesses somewhere. Father,
- 2:10:41upon everyone who the seal of the blood is upon.
- 2:10:44I decree and declare, by the power that raised crimes
- 2:10:47from the dead, may you raise strange financial support, strange
- 2:10:54financial support for your people, raise it for their family.
- 2:10:58Speaker 4: So good.
- 2:11:00Speaker 3: Of Jesus, I commanded reven that brought bread for Elijah,
- 2:11:05I brook charity.
- 2:11:07Speaker 6: Let it come in the form of man.
- 2:11:09Speaker 2: Let it come in the form of destiny.
- 2:11:10Speaker 6: Help us.
- 2:11:12Speaker 3: No chruche will go down, no family will go down.
- 2:11:16In the name of Jesus Christ. In the name of
- 2:11:24Jesus Christ. And finally, let me pray for you. In
- 2:11:31twenty eighteen, I remember sharing a bit of it. Once
- 2:11:36year I woke up to a very strange and disturbing vision.
- 2:11:43In that vision, I saw that it was a crisis
- 2:11:49twenty eighteen. It was when I came out of the
- 2:11:53vision that I even knew that I was in a vision,
- 2:11:57because I saw several things happening.
- 2:12:00Speaker 2: It was like a disruption of peace. And I started
- 2:12:05asking questions, said, Ah, when did this happen?
- 2:12:10Speaker 3: Yes, there have been pockets of troubles in Zaria, but
- 2:12:13when did Zaria become like me?
- 2:12:14Speaker 2: Degree? And it disturbed me a lot.
- 2:12:18Speaker 3: I remember taking time to pray on first to say, Lord,
- 2:12:21it shall not stand. Can I tell you this, this
- 2:12:24is the season where the ministry of watchmen must not die.
- 2:12:28Speaker 6: Hear me?
- 2:12:29Speaker 3: This is the season where the ministry of watchmen. I'm
- 2:12:33not just talking of prayer groups for others. Every family
- 2:12:37must be intentional about the ministry of strategic and prophetic intercession.

- 2:13:00and I will continue to pray for you without fail.
- 2:13:03But I have shot you by God that you have
- 2:13:06a role to play.
- 2:13:07Speaker 3: Every Body must become an intercessor for the sake of
- 2:13:11the times that we're in. Don't fold your arms and
- 2:13:14say there are other prayer warriors. There's prayer department, there
- 2:13:17are this No. You must obtain Christ to engage.
- 2:13:20Speaker 2: Especially for some of you.

- 2:13:26Speaker 2: The rest may not have known these principles.
- 2:13:28Speaker 3: That's why God sent you us lights there that while
- 2:13:32they are catching up, you must turn like that man
- 2:13:35who becomes the preach and refuse that in the name
- 2:13:38of Jesus Christ, blood will not drip from this house
