- 2:14way of waving your hands. I understand we have in our

- 4:06This is a House of honor. And please accept my salutations
- 4:11and my honor forsake of time. Praise the name of the Lord.
- 4:16Now the School of Ministry operates on A2 fold structure.
- 4:22By the grace of God. Like you have heard, this is the
- 4:2412th edition of Graduation and Impartation Service.
- 4:29But generally speaking, it operates on A2 fold structure.
- 4:33Number one is strategic and structured mentorship.
- 4:37So we invest about 5 to 6 months strategically mentoring the
- 4:42students who are caught across all walks of life, not
- 4:47necessarily those who are in ministry alone.
- 4:49The school was designed to impact on people beyond the
- 4:55pulpit and so it extends to career people, professionals in
- 5:00their various regards. And so the first strategy is
- 5:04mentorship, structured mentorship.
- 5:07And the second, that is what we're about to witness tonight,
- 5:10is the impartation. We believe that this combination
- 5:14of structured and strategic mentorship, in addition to the
- 5:18impartation, will prepare the students to be able to manifest
- 5:23as living epistles, as worthy ambassadors, first of the
- 5:27Kingdom and then of this vision. It is for this that we are
- 5:32gathered tonight, and I plead that you lent me your attention.
- 5:36For the next few minutes. It is customary that I give a
- 5:39charge, and then we'll get straight to the impartation.
- 5:42The charge is first and foremost to all our graduating students,
- 5:46but as always, it extends to everyone who is here and to the
- 5:50many who are connected online. Please receive this as
- 5:53instructions. That will be a blessing to you.
- 5:56I titled this charge the Things to Remember and for reference,
- 6:00let's go to Second Peter chapter 1.
- 6:02We're reading the 1st 12 verses The Things to Remember.
- 6:07This is a charge first for the graduating students and then
- 6:12this will also be useful to everyone who is here and to the
- 6:20many across the globe who are listening.
- 6:22Second Timothy. One, I'll begin my reading from
- 6:25verse 1 to 12 Media. Let's go.
- 6:28Second Peter, my apologies. Second Peter 11 to 12.
- 6:33Simon Peter is servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ to them
- 6:38that have obtained like precious faith with us true the
- 6:42righteousness of God and our Savior Jesus Christ.
- 6:45Verse 2. Grace and peace be multiplied
- 6:48onto you through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.
- 6:52Verse 3. According as His divine power
- 6:55hath given us all things that pertain unto life and godliness,
- 7:00through the knowledge of Him that has called us to glory and
- 7:04to virtue, whereby are given unto us exceeding great and
- 7:10precious promises, that by this we might be partakers of the
- 7:14divine nature. Having escaped the corruption
- 7:17that is in the world through lost Five.
- 7:20And beside this now pay attention, giving all diligence,
- 7:24It says, Add to your faith virtue, and to virtue knowledge,
- 7:30and to knowledge temperance, and to temperance, patience, and to
- 7:36patience godliness, and to godliness, brotherly kindness,
- 7:41and to brotherly kindness, love or charity.
- 7:44For if these things be in you and abound, he says, they make
- 7:49you, that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the
- 7:54knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
- 7:56Verse 9. But he that lacked these things
- 7:58is blind, and cannot see afar off, and have forgotten that he
- 8:02was purged from his old sins. Wherefore the rather, brethren,
- 8:07give diligence to make your calling and your election show.
- 8:11He says, For if you do these things, ye shall never fall. 11
- 8:17For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly
- 8:21into the everlasting Kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus
- 8:24Christ. I like that we read the final
- 8:27verse in concert. Ready 1 to go.
- 8:30Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you in
- 8:33remembrance of these things, though ye know them and are
- 8:39established in the present truth.
- 8:42The Lord bless the reading of His word in Jesus name.
- 8:45Hallelujah. And so for a charge, I'll be
- 8:47giving us a few instructions. Instructions are powerful.
- 8:52A great man, a father of faith in this nation, said those who
- 8:57train pilots are called instructors.
- 9:00And they are so-called, among other reasons, because they
- 9:03train. Those who will be flying an
- 9:05aircraft is a very delicate responsibility.
- 9:08They are not called advisors, they are not called trustees,
- 9:12they are called instructors. Hallelujah.
- 9:15Because one violation of the law of aerodynamics or the
- 9:20principles of flight in the air can cost the destinies of so
- 9:25many people. Hallelujah.
- 9:27Praise the name of the Lord. The Bible says, My son, pay
- 9:30attention to my words. It says, incline your ears to my
- 9:35sayings. Do not let them depart from you.
- 9:37Keep them in the midst of your heart.
- 9:39It says they are life, not to everybody.
- 9:41To those who find them and health to their flesh, Scripture
- 9:48says The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, it says,
- 9:51But fools despise wisdom and instruction.
- 9:56And so I'm praying that as we. Receive this instruction. 1st to
- 10:00the students, and then to everyone that we find a place to
- 10:04treasure these instructions in our hearts.
- 10:06These are the precepts, like ladders upon which greatness
- 10:11leans on, and if you do not know how to climb it line upon line,
- 10:16precept upon precept, you may find yourself wanting.
- 10:20As far as your destiny is concerned, but I'm praying for
- 10:23you in the name of Jesus Christ, first to the students and then
- 10:26to everyone that you will be a faithful hearer in Jesus name.
- 10:30I gave Zaria Zaria campus 4I intend to give us 7 and that in
- 10:35a hurry. Let's go number one, the first
- 10:38instruction tonight. As far as attaining unto God's
- 10:45expectation for any man is concerned is build and commit to
- 10:50a systemic, consistent prayer life, you may want to write that
- 10:54down. Build and commit to a systemic,
- 10:58consistent prayer life. Anyone who wants to emerge,
- 11:03anyone who wants to excel, anyone who wants to be great in
- 11:07the Kingdom must be a person, a man or a woman who.
- 11:11Is committed to building a systemic, consistent prayer
- 11:17life. Luke 18 verse 1 He spake A
- 11:20parable to the end that men ought always to pray and not to
- 11:25faint. First Thessalonians 517 The
- 11:28Bible says to pray without season, or to pray for evermore.
- 11:33Hallelujah, the Bible says, And this is the confidence that we
- 11:38have in him, that when we ask anything according to His will,
- 11:42we know that He hears us. Matthew Mark chapter. 11 and
- 11:46verse 24. It says What things so ever ye
- 11:50desire, when ye pray not. If you pray, believe that thou
- 11:54receiveth them, and thou shalt have them.
- 11:58Philippians 46 down to 8. He says Be anxious for nothing.
- 12:02But in everything, in everything, every matter, every
- 12:06issue at all in your life, it says by prayer and supplication
- 12:10with Thanksgiving. Let.
- 12:12Your request be made known unto God.
- 12:14Matthew 77 ask it says in prayer that is, and you shall receive
- 12:21seek, and you shall find knock, and the door shall be opened.
- 12:25Verse 8 says for everyone. That asketh receiveth.
- 12:30And he that seeketh, find it, and to him that knock it, it
- 12:34shall be opened. I submit to you, ladies and
- 12:36gentlemen, like you have learned in this house and is worthy of
- 12:40repetition, that the one who invests in the culture of prayer
- 12:45is the one who will be mighty, not just in the spirit, but
- 12:49mighty in life and destiny. Prayer is not for prayer
- 12:52warriors. Prayer is not for men and women
- 12:55of God. Prayer is not just for fanatics.
- 12:57Prayer is for everyone. It is your safety net, like you
- 13:01have been taught in this house. Among the many objectives of
- 13:04prayer, the cheapest of them is for your growth and your
- 13:08transformation. If you do not commit to a
- 13:12culture, a lifestyle of consistent prayer, you will not
- 13:16be a believer of stature and of power, I told Zarya to repeat.
- 13:21This and let's try it with Abuja shout.
- 13:23I will pray one more time like you are believing it say I will
- 13:28pray. You must build intentionally,
- 13:33and you must commit yourself to a life of prayer.
- 13:36Prayer molds an individual from an inferior, weak version of you
- 13:41to a version of you that carries power, carries wisdom.
- 13:45It was in the place of prayer that Daniel received answers.
- 13:50Hallelujah, their lives were at risk because the king would not
- 13:53rest until his dream and interpretation were told him.
- 13:57And Daniel told the king, he said, do not be hasty, give me
- 14:00time. He went.
- 14:01And in the place of prayer, the Bible says, then the secret was
- 14:05revealed unto Daniel. Hallelujah, I'm praying for you
- 14:09that as you commit yourself to the prayer altar, your life will
- 14:12be nothing short of a sign and a wonder.
- 14:15You believe that shout Amen instruction?
- 14:18#2. You must submit to and leave by
- 14:22the word of God. Simple but profound.
- 14:25Simple but destiny defining. You must submit to and leave by.
- 14:31The Word of God, Matthew chapter 4 and verse 4.
- 14:35Jesus, in replying Satan at the temptation, said it is written
- 14:39man, any man at all, whether that man is a businessman,
- 14:43whether that man is a man of God, whether that man is a
- 14:45career person, a professional man shall not live by bread
- 14:50alone. But by every word that proceeded
- 14:55out of the mouth of God, man lives.
- 14:58By every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.
- 15:03In Acts chapter 20 and verse 32 it says, And now brethren, I
- 15:07commend you to God first and foremost, and then to the word
- 15:11of His grace. Which is able.
- 15:13There is ability in the world to build any man up, and then to
- 15:18deliver unto you an inheritance among them that are.
- 15:21Sanctified. It was one of the Apostolic
- 15:25precepts to hold onto the integrity and the supremacy of
- 15:30the Word of God, as we find in Acts chapter 6 and verse four.
- 15:34He says what we will give ourselves continually to prayer.
- 15:38And to the ministry of the world to prayer, and to the ministry
- 15:42of the world. To prayer and to the ministry of
- 15:45the world, you must make the word of God final authority in
- 15:50your life and in all matters, First Timothy 4 and verse 13,
- 15:55you must make the word of God final authority.
- 15:59It says, Till I come give attendance to reading, to
- 16:03exhortation, and to doctrine. So when we talk about the Word
- 16:07of God number one, we talk about the doctrinal composition of
- 16:11God's Word and then #2 the mysteries of the Kingdom, so
- 16:16that you are not vague in your understanding of the Word of
- 16:18God. When we talk about the Word of
- 16:20God, number one, we're talking about the doctrinal precepts
- 16:23that are contained in the Word of God #2 we're talking about
- 16:28the mysteries of the Kingdom, the body of spiritual knowledge
- 16:31that can empower an individual to work in dominion.
- 16:35Matthew 1311 says it has been given unto you.
- 16:39To know the mysteries of the Kingdom, you must submit to the
- 16:45Word of God. The man who neglects the Word of
- 16:48God is the man who has neglected potential for greatness.
- 16:52The man who neglects the word of God is 1 who's neglected
- 16:55potential for liberty and dominion.
- 16:59And a life of VV in the Kingdom cannot happen outside of the
- 17:04Word of God. John one verse 3 all things
- 17:08including any destiny at all were made by him and without him
- 17:13was not anything made that was made.
- 17:16I pray for you in the name of Jesus, that your passion, your
- 17:20hunger, and your determination to commit to and live by the
- 17:24word will never fade with time. Shout he believe his.
- 17:28Amen. Particularly for those of you
- 17:30who are going into the ministry, the ministry as we know, the
- 17:35ministry of the world, I pray for you that in the name of
- 17:38Jesus Christ you will be ever fresh as far as your passion for
- 17:43the world is concerned you. Believe that shout Amen.
- 17:47So instruction #2 submit to. And live by the Word of God.
- 17:52Let it be final authority in your life.
- 17:54Don't submit selectively. Now here's what happens with
- 17:58many people. Let me your attention for one
- 18:00moment. There are people who choose to
- 18:02submit to the Word of God if and when the Word of God agrees with
- 18:07what they already believed. So it just flows through.
- 18:10But many times you will find conflicting ideas.
- 18:13Culture has its idea about life, Sociology has its idea about
- 18:18life, and then the Word of God has its idea.
- 18:21It is up to you to lay aside every other thing and choose the
- 18:25word of God. That if the Word of God stands
- 18:28side by side with any other ideology, are we together?
- 18:32The Word of God must be exalted above it.
- 18:36This is the believer's call and there is a promise already there
- 18:40that if you do submit to the word of God, it's able to build
- 18:43you up and to deliver unto you an inheritance.
- 18:47The reason is because in John one verse one, the Bible says in
- 18:50the beginning before there was any idea, there was any concept,
- 18:55there was any fabrication of man's intelligence.
- 18:59The Bible says in the beginning was the Word, not an idea, not a
- 19:03suggestion, not a pen down rule by some group of people.
- 19:08In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and
- 19:12the Word was God. I'm praying for you in Jesus
- 19:16name that from today the Word of God will be at the beginning of
- 19:19every matter of your life #3 very quickly.
- 19:23The third instruction for tonight.
- 19:25Deliberately fight the know it all mentality.
- 19:29Very simple but profound instruction.
- 19:32Deliberately fight the know it all mentality by giving yourself
- 19:38to continuous learning. Deliberately fight the know it
- 19:43all mentality. There is such a mentality as a
- 19:47know it all mentality. It is the cap that mediocres
- 19:51wear on their head. The know it all mentality and
- 19:56that happens by giving yourself to continuous learning.
- 19:59The popular Scripture in this house, First Corinthians 8 and
- 20:02verse 2A scripture I found many years ago, and it's been a rule
- 20:06of thumb, it's been an anchor. To my own life, First
- 20:09Corinthians 8 and verse 2. Let's read together in concert,
- 20:12ready one to read. And if any man think that he
- 20:16knoweth anything, uh huh, he knoweth nothing.
- 20:20Yet as one of the ways you identify champions at every
- 20:27level and in any field is by their hunger to know more.
- 20:31There is an unquenchable desire. Passion to learn, to reach for,
- 20:38to improve. I'm reminded of Paul, he said.
- 20:41This one thing I do, forgetting the things that are behind me
- 20:45and reaching forth for the things that are before me.
- 20:47He makes a very profound statement that has become an
- 20:51instruction to my own life, he said.
- 20:53I pray. Press can we try that together 1
- 20:55to go say I press one more time in spite of my achievements, he
- 21:01said I Hallelujah during one of our retreats in the UKI preached
- 21:08on a message come up Heather and it was a very instructive one.
- 21:13I read from Revelations chapter 4 and Apostle John makes a very
- 21:18profound submission. He said after this I looked.
- 21:22After these 4 profound words, but it came as light to me after
- 21:28these you know what the these are.
- 21:30You would have to make reference to chapter 1, chapter 2 and
- 21:33chapter 3. I mean such a spectacular
- 21:36revelation. It starts by saying he was
- 21:38caught up in the Isle of Patmos for the as a witness for the
- 21:42testimony of the Lord Jesus Christ.
- 21:44And then he's caught up in heaven and he sees the golden
- 21:47lamb stand one in the midst of the Lamb stand looking like the
- 21:50Son of man. He begins to describe the
- 21:53splendor of heaven. Then he receives instructions
- 21:56for the seven churches which were then in Asia Minor, and
- 22:00prophetically they represent the universal church.
- 22:03Haven't obtained instructions. You would think there was
- 22:06nothing else to learn. And so he says after this, all
- 22:10these superior encounters, all these instructions, after this I
- 22:14still looked very profound. Can you look after this, after
- 22:18the awards, after the name, after the fame, after the mighty
- 22:23achievements? There are many people who cannot
- 22:25look again after this. There are some these wonderful
- 22:29things that can happen to a man and produce a side effect of
- 22:33stopping you from looking forward.
- 22:35I'm praying for you. No matter how high you rise, no
- 22:39matter how great you become, no matter how dexterous your life
- 22:42becomes, I'm praying that the appetite to continue to press
- 22:46will never fade from your life. If we're an agreement together,
- 22:50let's shout Amen. This already is an encouragement
- 22:54to every other person, not just the graduating students.
- 22:56You know, champions by their appetite to learn.
- 22:59They learn vertically and horizontally.
- 23:02They don't just learn from God alone.
- 23:05They learn from men. They learn from subordinates.
- 23:08Everything in life is a teacher to a wise man.
- 23:11Did you hear what I said? Everything in life is a teacher
- 23:14to a wise man. Pain can be a teacher to a wise
- 23:18man. Other people's mistakes can be a
- 23:20lesson, a teacher to a wise man. Wise people do not learn
- 23:25selectively. They are opened.
- 23:28They learn from everything. Even if you can't learn wisdom,
- 23:31you can learn to not follow that path because it leads to death.
- 23:35I'm praying for you in the name of Jesus Christ that you will be
- 23:39given to continuous learning that if Christ tarries after
- 23:43your name is around the world doing great things in business,
- 23:46in ministry, we will meet you still at the feet of Jesus
- 23:50learning. We will meet you at the feet of
- 23:52intelligent, wise people learning that you will never
- 23:56have an arrival mentality. You will never have a know it
- 23:59all mentality. Worst off, you will never have a
- 24:02knowing only mentality. In the name of Jesus Christ, you
- 24:06believe that shout Amen. Instruction #4 Blessed be the
- 24:12name of the Lord, Never despise the abilities.
- 24:17The. Giftings and the spiritual
- 24:19resources given to you by God Never despise the abilities, the
- 24:26giftings and the spiritual resources given to you by God.
- 24:30First Timothy 414 Never despise the abilities, the giftings and
- 24:36the spiritual resources given to you by God.
- 24:39Festimoto 414 It says, Neglect not the gift that is in thee,
- 24:44which was given thee by prophecy with the laying on of hands, and
- 24:49that of the presbytery. Let me tell you this, there is
- 24:52nobody on earth who is without a spiritual investment as a gift
- 24:57by God. The parable of the talents not
- 24:59only show us that we can multiply what God gives us, but
- 25:03it shows us that there is no one who is without something from
- 25:07God. He gave unto 15 talents.
- 25:10The Bible says He gave unto 1-2 talents.
- 25:12He gave unto 11 talent, at least for every of the three,
- 25:16representing all men. He gave them something.
- 25:19It is your idea or it is your your responsibility, I would
- 25:23say. To.
- 25:25Take what God has given you, appreciate it, not show it,
- 25:30develop it, refine it, and then serve it with excellence.
- 25:34Hallelujah. Our world is full of people who
- 25:38spend their lives and their days admiring orders, admiring men of
- 25:42God, sincerely so. Admiring business people,
- 25:46admiring professionals who are at the zenith of their career
- 25:51and and their professional pursuits.
- 25:53Admiring people who are making a mark in various fields and they
- 25:57do not know that like the people that they admire, there's
- 26:00something that God has put within them that if discovered,
- 26:04follow my. I thought if appreciated, if
- 26:07invested in and serve with excellence, can also give them a
- 26:11space on the table of greatness. I repeat myself again, if
- 26:15discovered, if appreciated, if invested in, developed, refined
- 26:22and then deployed to serve with excellence, it can become a
- 26:27channel for you to glorify God through your life and then
- 26:30create a space for you among the great.
- 26:33The Bible says the gift of a man.
- 26:35It says, and I'd like to add the gift of a man that has been
- 26:38discovered, refined and deployed can make room for him not in the
- 26:46raw unrefined state and then bring him before great men.
- 26:53You must refine the giftings of God within you, whether they
- 26:57come as spiritual resources, whether they come as
- 27:01intellectual resources, whether they come as physical resources,
- 27:05in whatever form or manner they came, you must identify them.
- 27:11You must refine them and then acknowledge that they were given
- 27:15to you by God and for the profiting of yourself and the
- 27:18world around you. Refine them.
- 27:21Serve them to your world with grace, with humility, and with
- 27:25confidence. I repeat with grace, with
- 27:27humility, and with confidence. When you find that which God has
- 27:32put in your spirit and you are certain that it will make you a
- 27:35blessing to the world, hold it and treasure it with everything
- 27:39you have and do not let anyone under the guise of any kind of
- 27:43sentiment pulling you out of the confidence that comes from
- 27:47knowing that you also have what it takes to be a blessing.
- 27:51Someone shout I am a blessing. As simple as this statement is,
- 27:56many people today have been reduced to in their minds, they
- 28:01have been reduced to to almost nothing because they believe
- 28:05that their lives don't count. And the reason is because
- 28:08society seems to give a narrative that if you are not
- 28:11from so so so region, if you do not assume a certain mold, they
- 28:16do not expect any blessing to come out of you.
- 28:20But let me tell you the truth, ladies and gentlemen, and drum
- 28:22it for one last time, that there is no one who came from God who
- 28:26is without something that can become a blessing to the.
- 28:29World, are we together? I'm praying.
- 28:32For you in the in the name of Jesus, that God will grant you
- 28:34the confidence to appreciate what He has given you, that
- 28:38while you admire that which He has given to others, it will not
- 28:42be at the detriment of what He has given you.
- 28:45If you are in agreement, shout Amen, praise the name of the
- 28:49Lord, and probably a last word on the 4th instruction.
- 28:54Then we go to the feet. Focus on impact beyond fame.
- 29:00I'm still buttressing on the fourth point.
- 29:04Focus on impact. As far as releasing that which
- 29:07is in you is concerned. You know, we live in a world
- 29:10where we are so obsessed with being famous and there's nothing
- 29:14intrinsically wrong with fame and notoriety.
- 29:18In fact, it is part of the tools that are needed for Kingdom
- 29:22come. You need influence and influence
- 29:25and fame. Although they are not the same,
- 29:28they are closely related. People must know you are there,
- 29:32and there's nothing wrong if you are elevated, if you are exalted
- 29:35to a position where people can know that you are there and
- 29:38appreciate the investment of God upon your life.
- 29:41But wise and visionary people focus on impact beyond fame.
- 29:47You can be famous without being impactful.
- 29:50An example is Satan. Satan is famous but it does not
- 29:55mean he's impactful. Another example, terrorist
- 29:58groups, they are famous but it does not mean they are
- 30:01impactful. When you call your name, there's
- 30:03any, there's hardly anyone who will not know that.
- 30:06There is so and so terrorist group across Nigeria or
- 30:09sub-Saharan Africa, but it does not mean that what they are
- 30:12doing is noble and should be emulated.
- 30:14So you must look beyond fame to a life of impact.
- 30:20There were many people in the Bible who were not as famous,
- 30:24but they were impactful. An example of such that easily
- 30:27comes to mind is the prophetess Hannah.
- 30:31The prophetess. There's no record that she was
- 30:34famous. In fact, the Bible says she
- 30:36spent at least 64 years or there about.
- 30:39In the temple, praying Jesus, praying that agenda, the arrival
- 30:44of the Messiah. She most likely was not known,
- 30:48but it's impossible to talk about the whole process of
- 30:51redemption and then ignore her contribution.
- 30:54For even when Jesus was born, he was brought to the temple and
- 30:58she received him, blessed him, spoke over his life.
- 31:01Hallelujah. Fame is important.
- 31:04Fame is great, nothing wrong with it intrinsically, but in
- 31:08order of priority you must desire to live a life of impact
- 31:12beyond a life of fame. I found out that when you focus
- 31:16on impact, you will achieve both.
- 31:18Hallelujah. When you focus on fame, you will
- 31:21most likely lose both. You will not get the fame and
- 31:24then you will not live an impactful life.
- 31:26But when you focus sincerely on a life of impact, you will find
- 31:30out that eventually you would have gotten both.
- 31:33I pray for you. May you find both and may you
- 31:36manage it well. Are you still shouting Amen like
- 31:39you believe? Hallelujah now #5 the quick
- 31:44recap #1 I said to build and commit to a systemic, consistent
- 31:49prayer life. The first instruction, the
- 31:52things to remember #2 that you submit to and leave by the Word
- 31:57of God, making it final authority over your life in
- 32:01every matter whatsoever #3 to deliver greatly fight the Know
- 32:06it all mentality and to give yourself to continuous learning.
- 32:114 To never despise the abilities, the giftings, and the
- 32:15spiritual resources that have been deposited within you, but
- 32:19that you discover them, appreciate God for them, refine
- 32:23them, and deploy them to serve your world with grace, with
- 32:27humility, and with confidence. Now #5 Invest in building
- 32:33strategic pro destiny relationships Invest in building
- 32:39strategic pro destiny relationships I cannot emphasize
- 32:45this enough. The roles that relationships
- 32:48have to play as far as fulfilling your mandate and
- 32:53living a victorious life on earth is concerned.
- 32:57Invest in building strategic. Pro destiny relationships.
- 33:02I'll tell you one of the ways that you become that you invest
- 33:06in building relationships, not by looking for quality people,
- 33:10but by becoming the kind of person that will make quality
- 33:13people want to associate with. Did you get that?
- 33:15Now there are many people who are unwilling to grow.
- 33:20They are unwilling to transit, to become better versions of
- 33:23themselves. And then they desire to have the
- 33:26finest and the best of all kinds of relationships, spiritual
- 33:30relationships, financial relationships, intellectual
- 33:34relationships, political relationships.
- 33:36And the person who desires all of this is the individual who
- 33:40does not have a determination to grow.
- 33:42Relationships are like magnets. They draw to themselves to the
- 33:46degree to which you transit, to the degree to which you grow.
- 33:51Hallelujah, you must master. Relationships have taught you in
- 33:54this house endlessly that this is the world of men.
- 33:58Psalm 115 and verse 16, I believe it says the heaven of
- 34:02heavens belong to the Lord. It says, but the earth hath He
- 34:06given to the children of men. This is the world of men.
- 34:12Do not forget, I've taught you in this house, and let me recap
- 34:16again, that relationships are advantageous connections that
- 34:21are mutually beneficial to all the parties that are involved.
- 34:25If it is not mutually, it may not be equally beneficial, but
- 34:29it must be mutually beneficial to all the parties that are
- 34:33involved. Whether it's between you and
- 34:35God, whether it's between men and men, you must contend and
- 34:39seek for relationships that are mutually beneficial to both
- 34:43parties. I have furthermore taught you in
- 34:46this house that relationships are bridges to an exceptional
- 34:50life. Never forget this.
- 34:52The bridge between your today and your tomorrow is a
- 34:56relationship and if you bond the bridges because of carelessness,
- 35:00you may never get to the other side.
- 35:02Unfortunately, relationships are also the bridges that connect
- 35:06you from where you are to a life of pain and regret.
- 35:10So whether you are moving forward to an enviable destiny
- 35:13or you are moving backward to a life of pain and regret, either
- 35:17ways you would have to follow the bridge called a
- 35:20relationship. And I can tell you history and
- 35:22the Bible is full of men who followed both ways as lessons
- 35:26for us to learn. Are we together now?
- 35:29Yes, you can follow the bridge as a relationship to a life of
- 35:34grace and glory. I was touched by the gentleman
- 35:37who gave his testimony, one of the students.
- 35:40Now imagine the role that his wife played in his life, getting
- 35:43him saved and now helping him to begin to learn the things of
- 35:46God. Relationships are bridges.
- 35:51They lead to an exceptional life, and they also lead to a
- 35:55life of pain and regret. The choice is yours.
- 35:58I also taught you that relationships are currencies.
- 36:02Remember that they can buy anything money can buy, but they
- 36:06can also buy what money cannot buy.
- 36:08Please listen again. Relationships are currencies.
- 36:12The next time you tap your pocket and there's nothing,
- 36:14don't say I don't have money. No, you may not have naira and
- 36:18dollars, but relationships are real currencies.
- 36:21In fact, they are the ones that give value to this mundane
- 36:25things we call naira and dollars.
- 36:28Take every human being away from the world and leave all the
- 36:31safes and all the whatever it is.
- 36:33The value of money, as you know, is because there is another man,
- 36:37there's another human figure behind the scene who is ready to
- 36:40transact and to give it worth. So what we call money derives is
- 36:44worth from the presence of men. Prayed for you in Koinonia.
- 36:50And let me try it again for those who are not attentive that
- 36:53day. May you never be so poor that
- 36:55all you have is money again. May you never be so poor that
- 37:01the only thing you have is an inanimate.
- 37:03Object that was printed that you call money.
- 37:07If all you have in your life is naira and Kabul and dollars,
- 37:11believe me, you are not wealthy. In the multitude of men is a
- 37:18King's honor, not just the multitude of resources.
- 37:21Don't get me wrong, resources are important, but they only
- 37:25find their value because there are men who give them the value.
- 37:29Are we learning now? Praise the name of the Lord.
- 37:31Why is the typewriter obsolete today?
- 37:34Simply because men decided that through growth and civilization
- 37:38and advancement, they do not consider it necessary to their
- 37:42lives. Again, anything derives its
- 37:45value in this world to the degree to which men receive it.
- 37:49And men appreciate it from phones, technological gadgets,
- 37:52etcetera. I'm praying for you again that
- 37:55my God will give you the wealth of men.
- 37:58Quality, strategic men. Are you shouting Amen.
- 38:04You are as fortunate in life as the man who decide to believe in
- 38:08you and agree with your destiny. You are as fortunate in life not
- 38:14just by the school that you went to, as wonderful as that is, or
- 38:17the course of study, or you know the background.
- 38:20All of those things are wonderful.
- 38:22But you are really fortunate to the degree to which you find men
- 38:26who believe in you. Are we together?
- 38:29Men who agree with your vision. Men who are willing to invest
- 38:33their time, their energy, their resources to drive your vision
- 38:36to fruition. Again, I'm praying for you in
- 38:39the name of Jesus Christ. May God send you quality men.
- 38:44But while they are on their way coming, May God make you the
- 38:47kind of person who will not be a cause to any relationship.
- 38:51I thought that would be a louder Amen.
- 38:56The easiest way to succeed in life is through strategic
- 39:00relationships and destiny connections.
- 39:03It is the easiest way I know to succeed in life.
- 39:07Show me a man who has failed in every way but has one
- 39:10relationship that can become a leverage.
- 39:12I show you a man who still has. Hope.
- 39:15Even if it's. Not a relationship with men.
- 39:17Your relationship with God can begin the journey.
- 39:20The prodigal son lost everything.
- 39:23He lost his reputation, he lost his pedigree, he lost the
- 39:26resources given to him. But he remembered that upon
- 39:30connecting back to his father, it could be his last chance to
- 39:34get back. And he said how many hired
- 39:36servants as my father and I'm here dining with the you pigs
- 39:42and all of that. He said I will arise.
- 39:44He didn't say I will go home. Going home will not bring him
- 39:47redemption. He needed a relationship, not a
- 39:50location. I will arise and I will go to my
- 39:54father and when I go to my father, I will say, father, I've
- 39:57seen against you and I'm not worthy to be called your son.
- 40:00Take me as one of your hired servants.
- 40:02The Bible says while he was on his way coming, he met his
- 40:06father the moment that connection happened.
- 40:09In almost an instant, honor was restored.
- 40:12Dignity was restored. I pray for you again, the kinds
- 40:15of men who have been positioned across the strategic corridors
- 40:19of your destiny. May you find them, and may you,
- 40:23when you meet them, may you discern them in the name of
- 40:28Jesus Christ. Please sit down.
- 40:32I'm tempted to still add more flesh to my talk on
- 40:34relationships because, you see, you have been taught in this
- 40:37House, and for the purpose of tonight's meeting, let me remind
- 40:41you that many of the people who are useful to your destiny will
- 40:44not come in the form that. You will be appreciated in that
- 40:49instance. You will need you will need a
- 40:51lot of discernment. If you had seen the slave girl
- 40:55as a divine connector, you would reject her because she didn't
- 40:59have anything directly to offer. I have taught you in this house
- 41:03that from the standpoint of destiny, help us, there are four
- 41:07major kinds of destiny help us you will need in your life.
- 41:10Number one, Divine connectors #2.
- 41:13Men and women of influence #3 gifted men #4 Borden bearers.
- 41:20What betides a man who does not invest in having these kinds of
- 41:25relationships? Again, divine connectors.
- 41:28They don't have the power to help you, but they know who can
- 41:32help you. An example the slave girl #2.
- 41:37Men and women of influence, An example Pharaoh, an example
- 41:42Joseph of Arimathea. These are men who by reason of
- 41:45their pedigree, their sacrifice and growth, their investment
- 41:49through the years they have risen the ranks of influence.
- 41:52Are we together? They are gatekeepers, they are
- 41:54key holders. Their recommendations, what they
- 41:57say about you can decide the next season.
- 42:00Of your life or keep you stunted.
- 42:02These are the kinds of men you don't cast and bind.
- 42:05You pray for favor with them. Imagine Joseph praying and
- 42:09casting herald Pharaoh. Imagine Daniel praying as a
- 42:14father in the name of Jesus, I'm asking you to kill
- 42:17Nebuchadnezzar. That would be a wasted prayer.
- 42:19The Bible says when a man's ways pleases the Lord.
- 42:22There are some men that the only way to move through your destiny
- 42:25through them is to find favor with them.
- 42:28And that will demand you understanding principles like
- 42:30the law of honor. I've taught you this,
- 42:33understanding people's skills. Being patient, are we together?
- 42:38And so on and so forth. It's very important.
- 42:43Real wealth, I wrote here, is access to the hearts of men.
- 42:48When you secure the loyalty, the trust, and the confidence of
- 42:52many men, you are wealthy. When you secure the loyalty, the
- 42:57trust, and the confidence of many men, truly you are wealthy,
- 43:06so you must pay the price to invest in quality relationships
- 43:10for graduating students. Many of you have interacted with
- 43:14one another through these months, and I'm hoping that
- 43:18you've been able to build a relationship or two from among
- 43:20yourselves that will prove to be useful even for the days that
- 43:24are coming. I made a prophetic statement
- 43:26many years ago. I said we will all be great and
- 43:29the greater parties that we will all know ourselves is an
- 43:32advantage. When you know yourself because
- 43:35you are a witness to the history of someone you, you can easily,
- 43:39you can make the job easier because you were a witness to
- 43:42their rising. Are we together again?
- 43:45I'm praying for you and I'm praying for everyone who is here
- 43:48tonight and those who are connected online where you have
- 43:51been barren of visionary friends.
- 43:54Where you have been barren of pro destiny friends, in the name
- 43:58of Jesus, from this night forward, May God by himself
- 44:02begin to connect you to strategic people.
- 44:06God will give you 1 friend that is equal to a company of men.
- 44:11One friend that will accelerate you spiritually, that will
- 44:14accelerate you financially, that will accelerate you in terms of
- 44:18your career in the name of Jesus Christ.
- 44:22And I pray for you, you will not join the wrong chariot.
- 44:26You will not join the relationships that lead to your
- 44:28decline in Jesus matchless name. We pray number 66 instruction
- 44:36The things to remember #6. Are you ready?
- 44:44In addition to being spiritual, you must seek to impact your
- 44:50world in a very positive and definite way.
- 44:55In addition to being spiritual, you must seek to impact your
- 45:00world in a very positive and definite way.
- 45:04Please write that and let me say a quick word on it in addition.
- 45:08To being spiritual. You must seek to impact your
- 45:12world in a very definite or positive and definite way.
- 45:16Now my reservation, and it's a very humble submission as to how
- 45:22we do a practice of the Christian faith, particularly
- 45:27within the African continent. And this is an observation that
- 45:31I've brought many times in my teachings, that spirituality
- 45:35must be translated to a context. Are we together?
- 45:39That builds society, that empowers community.
- 45:44Are we together? And that ultimately becomes a
- 45:47tool for nation building. So spirituality that does not
- 45:51have an expression in making society better only ends up
- 45:56turning that individual into a. Fanatic.
- 46:00And this unfortunately, in many quarters this has been the case.
- 46:04So you'll find a lot of vibrant people, tongue talking
- 46:07believers, ward reciting believers whose context, whose
- 46:12understanding of Christianity is just limited to prayer, ward
- 46:17study, church attendance and maybe giving.
- 46:20They are not Apostolic in their scope.
- 46:23They have not been so mentored that the richest that of what
- 46:27you get from your secret place should translate to you living a
- 46:31life that impacts upon society. Little wonder we have so many
- 46:35churches in Nigeria, With all due respect, so many churches in
- 46:39Africa and yet you cannot justify the kind of
- 46:42transformation in society. Things are changing though we
- 46:47are very happy things are changing.
- 46:49I can tell you by the grace of God, there are so many people
- 46:52who are impacting upon society who come directly from the
- 46:56church. I mean people who are rooted and
- 46:58planted in the church. We pray that this Apostolic
- 47:01mentality continues to grow. When Jesus walked with the
- 47:04disciple, let's look at the apostle of our faith.
- 47:07He took some time to walk with the disciples, building their
- 47:10spiritual life, investing in them, the culture of prayer,
- 47:14investing in them, and understanding of the Kingdom.
- 47:17A time came when he now told them he would send them.
- 47:20Are we together? And even though their assignment
- 47:22was primarily spiritual, it impacted upon society.
- 47:26For instance, in Acts chapter 8, the Bible says Philip went down
- 47:30to Samaria and there he preached Christ on to them.
- 47:33The people gave heed, the Bible says in one accord.
- 47:36You read that from verse 6. They heard and listened to
- 47:40everything he said and the miracles which he did and the
- 47:44Bible says on clean spirits through Him came out of many,
- 47:47and those who were taken with pulses were healed, unlike verse
- 47:508, he says, and there was great joy not on the crusade ground.
- 47:55There was great joy. The miracles were done on the
- 47:58crusade ground, but it translated to great joy in the
- 48:02entire city. My submission about the Great
- 48:06Commission has been and remains this threefold approach world
- 48:11evangelization, the discipleship of the Saints, and then
- 48:15territorial transformation. I am an advocate of transforming
- 48:20faith into a context that builds and improves society.
- 48:25Christians should not be the only one who benefit from
- 48:28Christianity. Christianity was not supposed to
- 48:31be a blessing to only Christians.
- 48:34Matthew chapter 513 to 16. It says You are the salt of the
- 48:39earth, not the salt of the church.
- 48:41It says, But if the salt has lost is several, where which
- 48:44shall it be salted? It is henceforth good for
- 48:46nothing except to be cast down and trodden on the foot of man.
- 48:5114 You are the light of the world.
- 48:54You are a city that is set on a hill that cannot be healed.
- 48:58It says neither do men light a candle, that candle is you, and
- 49:03put it under a bushel, but upon a Candlestick, and it gives
- 49:07light to all who are in the house.
- 49:09Then it says, Let your light so shine before before.
- 49:16That includes all kinds of men, those who are of faith and those
- 49:21who are outside of faith. We have a mandate to extend the
- 49:25riches of this divine life. To them.
- 49:29Society should change because they are Christians.
- 49:33It should not be a mockery on God that we have a number of
- 49:36people praying in tongues, jumping, falling, holding
- 49:39Bibles, going to church, investing in prayer meetings,
- 49:43ward study meetings, conferences without the the fabric first,
- 49:47the moral fabric, the technological fabric, the
- 49:51sociological fabric of society. It's impossible to have this
- 49:56rich capture of believers without the society feeling the
- 49:59impact. This is what it means to be an
- 50:02Apostolic Christian. To be an Apostolic Christian
- 50:05means that you translate the riches of your relationship with
- 50:09Jesus Christ, among other things, to a context that
- 50:12becomes a blessing. That crime rate should reduce in
- 50:16a place. Are.
- 50:17We together, because of the presence of the church, that it
- 50:20can be traceable even by the government that from the time
- 50:23this and that church was established through the power of
- 50:27the gospel, through the power of all their spiritual programs,
- 50:31there are there's empirical data to show that society has become
- 50:37a better place because of the believer.
- 50:40This is the orientation that Jesus gave about the church.
- 50:44And I'm praying. In the name of Jesus Christ that
- 50:46as a contribution to society, these that are going to be
- 50:51graduated tonight will add to improving Nigeria, will add to
- 50:57improving Africa. But one person among the
- 51:01students who are graduating in no distant time will become such
- 51:05an influence for the Kingdom. You will become a name that will
- 51:09be known for good. You will do God proud through
- 51:12your life. You will do the ministry proud
- 51:15through your life. That you will never be named for
- 51:17anything that brings reproach to the name of the Lord.
- 51:20You believe that shout Amen. Hallelujah was very humble.
- 51:25When the footballer lady came to give her testimony, and I
- 51:30understand there are many of those footballers connected to
- 51:32different churches too. So nobody should say the church
- 51:36is a nuisance to society. We are making contributions, no
- 51:39matter how small. It is better than nothing.
- 51:42Are we together now? By the grace of God and by the
- 51:46privilege of stewardship He's given us, we will redefine the
- 51:49narrative of church as far as its impact to society is
- 51:53concerned so that our relevance does not just end on the pulpit.
- 51:59No, no, no. That spirituality translates
- 52:04into a tool for nation building. We will raise responsible
- 52:08people. They are born again and talk
- 52:10talking. They are spiritual but not
- 52:12fanatical. They are people who can
- 52:14translate the wisdom of the world to set up enterprise, the
- 52:18wisdom of the world to run families that work, the wisdom
- 52:21of of of the world. Are we together to bring
- 52:24programs that move our country, our continent forward?
- 52:28If that is you shout Amen. In addition to being spiritual,
- 52:41you must seek to impact your world in a very positive and
- 52:46definite way. I make reference to my lecture
- 52:51at Harvard and one of the things I said during the fire chart,
- 52:54the fireside chart, was about the power of 1.
- 53:01I remember in that lecture I taught the students that impact
- 53:06is one person at a time, the ambition to change the world.
- 53:12Starts with changing one person, and that one person is you to
- 53:17the degree to which you can be changed.
- 53:20It gives us if the change. Walks in you, then it can walk
- 53:25in whoever comes close to you, and then it can walk in the
- 53:28family. Are we together?
- 53:30Praise the name of the Lord. So in aspiration to change our
- 53:34world, we shouldn't be overly ambitious.
- 53:37Yet we can start from ourselves, then extend it to our families.
- 53:42I told you that research has shown that almost every national
- 53:47problem was first a regional problem.
- 53:49That was not solved. Every regional problem or almost
- 53:54every regional problem was a community problem that was not
- 53:58solved. Are we together?
- 53:59Almost every community problem was a family problem that was
- 54:03not solved. So the armed robber that later
- 54:06becomes a threat to society starts by stealing in the house.
- 54:11And if those who have been given stewardship over him to not do
- 54:16their due diligence to build that armed robber, he becomes a
- 54:19nuisance to the home, then graduates to the community.
- 54:23Are we together, then becomes a nuisance to the region, Then he
- 54:27becomes a nuisance to the nation, then he extends to the
- 54:30continent and the whole world. There are names today that you
- 54:33will never want to name your children because there are
- 54:37already names that capture a history that is terrible and you
- 54:42don't want to prophecy that to your child.
- 54:44And I'm praying for you because of your life, many people would
- 54:47name their children after you. I say to you again, many people
- 54:52would name their children after you in the name of Jesus Christ.
- 54:58I'm yet to hear someone with the name Lucifer.
- 55:00Maybe there is. I'm yet to hear someone give the
- 55:04child the name Satan. Great spelling, bad history.
- 55:09Are we together? The reason is because.
- 55:13There is a story, there is a history that is connected to
- 55:17such a name. We must raise agents of national
- 55:23and territorial transformation. And let me charge everyone who
- 55:27is here. We're honored to have
- 55:28professionals at different levels.
- 55:31The business of transforming society cannot be left to
- 55:35government alone. Government should spearhead it.
- 55:38But every institution has a responsibility to play its role.
- 55:43And I can tell you this if we minimize grumbling and
- 55:46complaining. I'm not a politician and put our
- 55:49hands in glove. Every region, every institution,
- 55:52every quarter must do its own bit to producing the citizens
- 55:58that transform society. No society will be transformed
- 56:01by external people waiting for an external body to come and
- 56:05change society's irresponsibility.
- 56:07The people within society must begin to take that sense of
- 56:12responsibility. Change your family, change your,
- 56:15your, what they call it now your community.
- 56:18And that by adopting world compliant values, values that
- 56:24promote human dignity, values that promote responsibility,
- 56:29values that reward responsibility, values that
- 56:33reward meritocracy. Are we together?
- 56:37Crooks should not be succeeding unattended to.
- 56:41By the time evil looks marketable, it will continue.
- 56:48Hallelujah, praise the name of the Lord.
- 56:56I've made-up my mind that I will not be a man of God who will
- 56:59only raise spiritually vibrant people.
- 57:03I've described for you here what we call the Koinonia believer.
- 57:07So it is a template of the kind of believer that we are raising
- 57:11under disgrace. We have an exact picture, a
- 57:15sevenfold. Recitation of what should happen
- 57:20to you on that disgrace and among them is that you must be
- 57:24translated through the power of God's Word and the ministry of
- 57:28the Holy Spirit to an individual who becomes an agent of
- 57:32territorial transformation. First for your nation and then
- 57:35every other nation where you are represented.
- 57:39Any nation you are represented becomes your mission field at
- 57:42that point is. Someone learning in the name of
- 57:46Jesus Christ is the reason why we call people men of God and
- 57:51women of God, but we also call them witnesses and we call them
- 57:55Kingdom. Ambassadors, when you limit the
- 57:58description of people to men and women of God, you
- 58:01psychologically reengineer their mind to think their jurisdiction
- 58:05is just the pulpit. I am a man of God, but I'm
- 58:08beyond a man of God. There are other components to my
- 58:10life and I allow it to find expression to be able to better
- 58:14society in whatever way we can. So it's to preach.
- 58:17We preach if it's to whatever charitable organized activities
- 58:22we do that transforming people in whatever way to spend and be
- 58:27spent for him. So that at the end of my life,
- 58:30it shouldn't only be Christians who say they benefited from
- 58:34Joshua Salman. Society should say this society
- 58:37became better because this person was born.
- 58:39May that be your testimony. In the name of Jesus Christ, Are
- 58:45you ready for #7 number 7? And then we go straight to the
- 58:49impartation. I hope you've learned something.
- 58:52For many of us, most of us, this is not new, but it's coming as.
- 58:57Remembrance to keep this as a rule of thumb as you sojourn 7
- 59:02Think posterity. Think posterity beyond
- 59:09achievements, think posterity. You know what posterity means.
- 59:14Think about the future. Think about succeeding
- 59:17generations. Every visionary must always
- 59:22think posterity. I think he was here during one
- 59:25of our discussions. I said once you are above 30 or
- 59:30fair enough, let's stretch it to 35.
- 59:33Once you are above 35, you should stop thinking about your
- 59:37life alone. The moment you clock 30, or
- 59:40let's say fair enough, 35, you, you must begin to think
- 59:44posterity. The narrative we give people,
- 59:47especially in this nation, we call very old people children.
- 59:50We have, it's a, it's a, it's an African mindset.
- 59:53We like to call people children and they believe they are
- 59:56children. So you find someone who is 50
- 59:58years old, but simply because he's the youngest of the
- 1:00:01siblings, he believes he's a child.
- 1:00:03In my world, a child is anyone who can make decisions and has
- 1:00:10the psychological and the mental.
- 1:00:14Composition to be able to appreciate the consequences once
- 1:00:17that happened, you are stop being a child.
- 1:00:21So in my world, a child is not 1818 is too far too far too far.
- 1:00:27And let me tell you this, with all due respect, the Asians have
- 1:00:32given their children this mentality.
- 1:00:34They treat teenagers like adults, and it's translated to a
- 1:00:37lot of technological advancement in Africa.
- 1:00:41As much as we have done well, this is my continent, this is my
- 1:00:44nation. I'm proud of it.
- 1:00:45But let me tell you the truth, until we begin to culture a
- 1:00:49sense of responsibility early enough in people, who would not
- 1:00:54have the time to begin to think posterity?
- 1:00:56So someone of 40 is still thinking about himself, someone
- 1:01:00of 60 is still thinking about himself until days before death.
- 1:01:05Then they start talking about the next generation.
- 1:01:08People only talk about succeeding generations days
- 1:01:11before death. You know, I'm about to go now.
- 1:01:14So let's, let's see. What have we done?
- 1:01:16No, no, Jesus as he arrived from its thirty.
- 1:01:22He lived his life not for himself.
- 1:01:24Read your Bible. Everything he did was for the
- 1:01:27world. For this course came I to this
- 1:01:32end. Was I born to be a witness to
- 1:01:34the truth? And so on and so forth.
- 1:01:38I'm praying for you in the name of Jesus Christ, that you will
- 1:01:41begin to think posterity shout Amen.
- 1:01:46You will begin to think. Posterity Ecclesiastes Chapter 7
- 1:01:50and verse one very quickly. 7 and verse one.
- 1:01:53The Bible says a good name. I like this is better than
- 1:01:58precious ointment and the day of death than the day of 1's birth
- 1:02:04in Proverbs chapter 13 I believe and verse 22.
- 1:02:06Please give it to us Proverbs 1322.
- 1:02:09It says a good man leave that an inheritance to his children's
- 1:02:15children. Are we together and I have
- 1:02:18taught here you may want to make reference to my teaching
- 1:02:20redefining inheritance redefining inheritance.
- 1:02:25It's a very powerful teaching, especially when you now begin to
- 1:02:30focus on posterity. I teach that there are five
- 1:02:33things the Bible calls inheritance, and if you cannot
- 1:02:37transfer these five things to those that come after you, you
- 1:02:41have failed. The list of those five things is
- 1:02:44physical estate. So if the only thing you give
- 1:02:47your child or your subordinates or your mentees is money or
- 1:02:51estate or a job, then you really destroy their lives.
- 1:02:57The first of the five inheritance, I will give you 2
- 1:03:00and then I'll leave you to go and learn the rest.
- 1:03:02Number one, your spiritual convictions.
- 1:03:06The first, the first thing that is worthy of being called an
- 1:03:09inheritance is your spiritual conviction.
- 1:03:13I know, Abraham, that. He will teach his children my
- 1:03:16ways. Spiritual convictions.
- 1:03:20Hallelujah #2 the leverage of your relationships.
- 1:03:26The second thing that qualifies to be called inheritance is the
- 1:03:30leverage of your relationships. Don't allow those who come out
- 1:03:34from you have to go through the labour.
- 1:03:36Of building the leverage of relationships.
- 1:03:43So you'll find the remaining. There are five of them.
- 1:03:47Are we together? Now?
- 1:03:49Let me tell you the truth, I think I made this statement
- 1:03:53during the birthday broadcast that you must understand the
- 1:03:59brevity of life on earth. Remember that you must
- 1:04:02understand the transient nature of our life and our sojourn
- 1:04:08here. Psalm 90 and verse 12.
- 1:04:10So then teach us to number our days that we may apply our
- 1:04:15hearts onto wisdom. I want to encourage everyone to
- 1:04:19listen again to my message, the Law of Seasons.
- 1:04:23If it's a message that impacted upon my life, it still does.
- 1:04:26Once in a while I find myself listening to it again and
- 1:04:29praying the Law of seasons. In that teaching we.
- 1:04:36We did an exergesis on Pharaoh's dream.
- 1:04:40Seven years of plenty followed by 7 years of.
- 1:04:44Of of luck, the lean cows, the fat cows, and.
- 1:04:49Joseph told Pharaoh that these dreams, two of them, are the
- 1:04:52same dream. It is because it is established
- 1:04:55and nothing can be done about it.
- 1:04:59One day you will not be here. I don't mean you will die.
- 1:05:03One day the stage will push you out.
- 1:05:06No matter how relevant you are. Please look up.
- 1:05:09Let me tell you something about succession and posterity.
- 1:05:13One day, whether you like it or not, you will not be the one on
- 1:05:17the stage, but you can remain relevant if you invest in the
- 1:05:21one who is on the stage. Because when you are moving out
- 1:05:24of the stage, the one who is there will draw you back and
- 1:05:27say, because we invested in my life, as I rise, you will also
- 1:05:30become a beneficiary of my growth.
- 1:05:33Are we together now? Jesus is not physically on
- 1:05:36earth, but His name resounds on every year through the faithful
- 1:05:40people who have become beneficiaries of His love and
- 1:05:43His sacrifice. One day you will not be here on
- 1:05:50stage, but sadly, one day if Christ tarries, you may not be
- 1:05:54here physically. Let me recap a statement I made
- 1:05:57during my birthday broadcast as I seek to bring this charge to
- 1:06:00an end. Every dead body on earth, I
- 1:06:03said, is a sermon. Every dead body you see on earth
- 1:06:08is a sermon. A constant reminder that our
- 1:06:12destiny clock is ticking. And one day it will stop.
- 1:06:19As much as we hate hearing this, it is the truth.
- 1:06:23One year ago, there are many people who were alive on earth.
- 1:06:26Some of them heard what I said. Today they've gone to be with
- 1:06:30the Lord, some to eternal rest, sadly others to eternal
- 1:06:34damnation. You must live your life with
- 1:06:41posterity in mind. The hymn writer, I will always
- 1:06:46make reference to his him. We used to sing it a lot.
- 1:06:52Thus will we pass from the earth.
- 1:06:54And it's toiling, he says, only to be remembered by what we have
- 1:06:59done. I don't know anybody who
- 1:07:03stretched his hands to receive all his money as he died.
- 1:07:05He said, Give me my money, let me die with it.
- 1:07:09Give me my certificates, let me die with it.
- 1:07:12I am Chief Abci am Apostle ABC. Give me my title as I go to the
- 1:07:18grave. It's amazing how people are
- 1:07:20buried. No matter how lavish it is.
- 1:07:23You come back after many years, you will find bones, decay.
- 1:07:28They call it the remains of that person.
- 1:07:32Ladies and gentlemen, God has given us the opportunity to #1
- 1:07:36be alive #2 to be saved #3 to be enlightened, and He's given us
- 1:07:43an opportunity to live meaningful lives.
- 1:07:46It is my call first to our graduating students and then to
- 1:07:50all who have come to celebrate with them and all who came to
- 1:07:53church on site and the many who are connected online, that you
- 1:07:58will begin to think posterity. Perhaps the Lord is giving me
- 1:08:02this to speak to a father, a mother, an elder one, or a
- 1:08:06selfish person who is all about himself or herself.
- 1:08:10I'm not thinking about the next generation.
- 1:08:13I think it's fair enough if I use the opportunity to speak to
- 1:08:16our politicians. Begin to think posterity.
- 1:08:19There's only so much a man can amass in his bank account.
- 1:08:23There is only so much clothes a man can wear.
- 1:08:27Hallelujah. There is only so much great
- 1:08:31people. Think about the next generation.
- 1:08:34Mediocres think about themselves.
- 1:08:40These must be an orientation that must be captured in our
- 1:08:44academic institutions, our political institutions, even the
- 1:08:49church or religious institutions.
- 1:08:52We must begin to look less to ourselves and more to the
- 1:08:55generations that are coming and use the gift of time, the gift
- 1:08:59of influence, the gift of access that He's given us now to
- 1:09:03perhaps. Build something better for those
- 1:09:07who come before us. That where it took you 10 years
- 1:09:10to arrive there. Shorten the journey for someone
- 1:09:12else. Don't make the journey longer.
- 1:09:16Don't allow your children have to change their names or their
- 1:09:19surnames. Because of the kind of father
- 1:09:21who gave birth to them. Don't allow people to not be
- 1:09:25associated with you because you are almost like a cancer of a
- 1:09:29human being to their lives. It is my prayer that at the end
- 1:09:36of my life I will not just be known as a man of God who did
- 1:09:39great things for the Kingdom around the world, but that in
- 1:09:42addition to all of those testimonies, it will be that I
- 1:09:46live my life loving the Lord and inspiring a generation to love
- 1:09:50Him, to serve Him, and indeed to be a blessing.
- 1:09:54Like the Bible says in Genesis 12 and verse 3, In these shall
- 1:09:58all the families of the earth be blessed.
- 1:10:02Now for the. Reason why we are here.
- 1:10:04We're here tonight to witness the graduation ceremony of our
- 1:10:09precious ones, our brothers and sisters.
- 1:10:11They have submitted themselves in the last six months
- 1:10:14thereabout through very intense structured mentorship through
- 1:10:19the graduates. You have paid the price in rain,
- 1:10:23in sun, many of you professionals in your own
- 1:10:26regard, having to bend over backwards to attend the
- 1:10:30lectures. I want to use this opportunity
- 1:10:32to say very big thank you to the families of these ones here.
- 1:10:36It's a great sacrifice allowing your spouses or your children or
- 1:10:42your loved ones. It's literally hard to change so
- 1:10:46many things in your lives and we want to thank you for your
- 1:10:48understanding at various levels. Now they're about to receive the
- 1:10:52impartation, and I wanted to know that impartation is beyond
- 1:10:56a religious ceremony. It is beyond the laying on of
- 1:10:59hands of people. I am a product of not just the
- 1:11:03wisdom that has come from the Word, not just the wisdom that
- 1:11:06has come from those who have gone before me.
- 1:11:10I am also a product of impartations.
- 1:11:13What is impartation? Impartation is a transference of
- 1:11:16spiritual possibilities. The meaning of that is that when
- 1:11:21God, according to Isaiah Chapter 9 and verse 8, when God wants to
- 1:11:26bless a people, please let me have your attention.
- 1:11:29When God wants to bless a people the way that he does it is by
- 1:11:34laying His hand upon one person and through the sacrifice of
- 1:11:40alignment watch this, He brings that one person to a position
- 1:11:44where he's able to bring out that which God has deposited
- 1:11:48within him and distributed to us.
- 1:11:51Many people whose heart that are willing to receive.
- 1:11:56When God sends a word to Jacob, Isaiah 9 verse 8, He lights it
- 1:12:00upon Israel. These ones have been trained and
- 1:12:04now is the time for them to receive the distribution of
- 1:12:08graces that God has so invested upon us.
- 1:12:11By the message of God, He has made us T words of these graces.
- 1:12:15There are a plethora of graces that God has allowed us to be
- 1:12:19able to capture through. I was sojourned with God and
- 1:12:25these ones are about to experience an impartation of
- 1:12:28those graces. Please, I want to encourage
- 1:12:30everyone that through this moment of impartation, I like us
- 1:12:34to be in prayer for these ones. To the graduates, you've prayed,
- 1:12:38you've fasted, you've prepared your spirits.
- 1:12:40Some of you are going into ministry or are already in
- 1:12:43ministry. Some of you are going into
- 1:12:45business or already in business. Some of you are career people.
- 1:12:49God Himself is responsible for the allocations.
- 1:12:53But I want to charge you in the name of Jesus like you have
- 1:12:55learned that as you receive of disinvestment, let it be a plus.
- 1:13:00Let it be an addition to your life.
- 1:13:03Let it not be the basis of pride.
- 1:13:05Let it not be the basis of flesh, but that with this
- 1:13:08anointing God will turn you all into signs and wonders in the
- 1:13:11name of Jesus Christ. I have done this non-stop for
- 1:13:14the last 12 years and I have seen the wonder walking power of
- 1:13:18God. As grace comes upon individuals,
- 1:13:21ordinary men become infernals of fire and tonight will be no
- 1:13:26different in the name of Jesus Christ.
- 1:13:28So I like everybody in one minute.
- 1:13:30Please can you pray for the students wherever you are, I
- 1:13:34like you to sow a seed of prayer.
- 1:13:36Let me have anointing oil, please.
- 1:13:38Let's pray for the students. Let's pray for the students.
- 1:13:43We're getting into a very, very definite moment, a very
- 1:13:47prophetic moment in this service right now.
- 1:13:56Please pray. Sheila Panda Prakateba
- 1:13:59lacaparatus Yatar. Tonight is the night where Saul
- 1:14:04turns to Paul. Tonight is a night where
- 1:14:10destinies will begin to blossom, begin to flourish.
- 1:14:15By the Spirit of God, pray for them that those who will be
- 1:14:25serving in the ministry. There.
- 1:14:27Will be men and women who will be on fire.
- 1:14:30Pray for them that those who will be distributed across the
- 1:14:34various strata of human activities, that grace will come
- 1:14:39upon them. Grace will come upon them.
- 1:14:43That which is locked up within their spirit will find
- 1:14:45expression. And that as hands are laid upon
- 1:14:49them, it will not just be a touch, it will be an initiation
- 1:14:54into a realm of limitless possibilities by the Spirit.
- 1:14:59And let me tell you as you pray for them, you may not be one of
- 1:15:02the graduating students, but the realm of the Spirit responds to
- 1:15:06hunger. Once you are seated, you can
- 1:15:09pray. Desiring hunger, desiring this
- 1:15:13impartation, using the tool of hunger, you can draw to yourself
- 1:15:19this anointing. One minute we are still praying.
- 1:16:02I see them resting in this land.
- 1:16:15I see them resting. I remember many years ago I was
- 1:16:21in a Renhard bunker crusade. He didn't have the opportunity.
- 1:16:25I didn't have the opportunity to have him lay hands directly, but
- 1:16:29I was there with hunger. I stood there for six hours, no
- 1:16:34seats. I dropped any man of God
- 1:16:38mentality, and I was looking at a man who carried what I desired
- 1:16:42for my assignment. And I remember somewhere in that
- 1:16:46service my eyes were opened, and for the first time in my life I
- 1:16:51saw a visible manifestation of the Holy Ghost.
- 1:16:54Like a bird hovering round that crusade ground.
- 1:16:59Something had rested upon my life.
- 1:17:02Let me tell you the truth, in partitions are real.
- 1:17:06Man can carry mantos. Man can carry graces.
- 1:17:10And. Tonight, in the name of Jesus,
- 1:17:12upon this Apostolic and prophetic grace, I lay my hands
- 1:17:16upon this oil. Let it not become an ordinary
- 1:17:20oil again. Let it be a conduit that
- 1:17:23transfers possibilities that upon every head, in the name of
- 1:17:28Jesus, let this cloak of the Apostolic and the prophetic, let
- 1:17:34it rest once again for the purpose of this assignment.
- 1:17:38And I pray that everyone who will receive this impartation,
- 1:17:42let it stay, let it last, let it grow, let it be nurtured, let it
- 1:17:47produce witnesses. Indeed, in the name of Jesus
- 1:17:50Christ, by the power of the Holy Spirit, a new season in a new
- 1:17:57season. So everyone of us, please, once
- 1:18:01you are seated, are likely to be in the place of prayer.
- 1:18:05You will pray for these ones. They are going to be lining up
- 1:18:08and everyone of them will be receiving this importation.
- 1:18:12It will announce a new season in their lives.
- 1:18:14You did not just come to witness, you also came to
- 1:18:18encourage them. And the greatest way to
- 1:18:20encourage them is to lend your prayer.
- 1:18:23Our global family watching from any nation and everywhere
- 1:18:27viewing centers, television was stepping into a very prophetic
- 1:18:31time and you may be watching right there.
- 1:18:34The power of God can move through the airwaves and hit you
- 1:18:37right where you are and turn your destiny.
- 1:18:41Redefine your destiny, Father, in the name of Jesus.
- 1:18:45Let your glory rest upon this place.
- 1:18:48Let it be a new beginning for your people in the name of Jesus
- 1:18:51Christ. I see.
- 1:19:45I see. I see.

- 1:49:46in the name that is above all names, every limitation that
- 1:49:50came with your background, every limitation that's helped those
- 1:49:55who went ahead of you. I decree and declare by this
- 1:49:58impartation that limitation is hereby broken, broken, broken.
- 1:50:07Broken in the name of Jesus, I prophecy to everyone of you, Go
- 1:50:14forward, make progress in the name of Jesus.
- 1:50:23What has never been done in your family lineage by this anointing
- 1:50:27I declare, Go and do it for Jesus.
- 1:50:30Go and do it for the Kingdom in the name of Jesus.
- 1:50:35By this impartation I call for strategic help.
- 1:50:39Us from the north, the South, the east and the West.
- 1:50:44May they gravitate to your life in the name of Jesus.
- 1:50:50By this impartation I cause on timely death we will not bury
- 1:50:57anyone of you before your time. I say it again, we will not bury
- 1:51:01anyone of you before your time in the name of Jesus.
- 1:51:07Let the grace for visibility that is on you begin to speak.
- 1:51:12Those who do not know will call you from afar.
- 1:51:15I pray for those of you in ministry.
- 1:51:18You will do ministry with integrity.
- 1:51:21You will do ministry with grace. You will experience fruitfulness
- 1:51:26in ministry in the name of Jesus, and I pray for you.
- 1:51:33Everything that has refused to walk hitherto by the power that
- 1:51:37raised Christ from the dead may begin to walk.
- 1:51:41I say to you, may begin to walk. You will experience ease in
- 1:51:45life, ease in business, ease in ministry.
- 1:51:51In the name of Jesus, I speak to you.
- 1:51:54You will lay up gold as dust. You will not beg, you will not
- 1:51:58borrow. The Lord being your shepherd
- 1:52:01will cause that. You will not want.
- 1:52:04In the name of Jesus, let this anointing that has come upon you
- 1:52:08grow. Let it fill other empty vessels
- 1:52:12until you are filled to overflowing from you.
- 1:52:17Let that grace extend to many from you.
- 1:52:21Let that grace extend to many other regions.
- 1:52:24In the name of Jesus, I pray for you.
- 1:52:28Let the gates of nations be open, Europe be open, North
- 1:52:34America be open, South America be open, Australia be open, Asia
- 1:52:41be open, Africa be open. Nobody will despise you.
- 1:52:47Nobody will reject your grace in the name of Jesus, and I pray
- 1:52:54for you, any man who fights you as touching the anointing you
- 1:52:58carry, they go down instantly. In the name of Jesus Christ, In
- 1:53:05the name of Jesus Christ, In the name of Jesus Christ, shout a
- 1:53:10sevenfold Amen. Hallelujah.
- 1:53:28Therefore, by the power of the Holy Spirit that's been vested
- 1:53:32upon me, I declare the Colonial School of Ministry, Set 2025.
- 1:53:40We declare you bona fide graduates of the School of
- 1:53:44Ministry in the name of the Father, Name of the Son.
- 1:53:49And in the name of the Holy Spirit, congratulations.
- 1:53:52Let's celebrate them everyone. Congratulations.
- 1:53:58Congratulations. Please, you may be seated.
- 1:54:02Please, you may be seated. Hallelujah.
- 1:54:06Now, before I step down, just help those who are still under
- 1:54:09the anointing. It's a very deeply spiritual
- 1:54:14activity that just happened here.
- 1:54:18Hallelujah. I want us to appreciate our
- 1:54:22ushers. Go ahead and let's give them a
- 1:54:26big God bless you. It's a lot of sacrifice and
- 1:54:30training. Hallelujah.
- 1:54:34There's so many students. Oshas, thank you so much.
- 1:54:37For being very diligent alongside every other
- 1:54:40department. May the Lord bless you in the
- 1:54:42name of Jesus. I pray that the remaining part
- 1:54:45of the service, as brief as it is, will edify everyone.
- 1:54:48Please sit back and enjoy the remaining part of the service.
- 1:54:52And I'll come up shortly to speak the blessing over your
- 1:54:54life. God bless you.
- 1:54:59Hallelujah. Let's celebrate them one more
- 1:55:03time. Celebrate.
- 1:55:05Them one more time. Amen, please.
- 1:55:09You may be seated. Thank you very much for.
- 1:55:13Following through to this point of the service, Hallelujah, I'm
- 1:55:17about to speak a blessing over our lives.
- 1:55:21There's no service that should be without an opportunity to
- 1:55:23receive prophetic words. But before I do that, allow me a
- 1:55:27minute or two to make the altar call.
- 1:55:31I am a firm believer that for every service there are people
- 1:55:36sent by God to be saved, to encounter Jesus and to begin
- 1:55:41their spiritual journey. Life begins with Jesus.
- 1:55:44Life does not really begin at birth.
- 1:55:47Existence may begin at birth, but life begins when you
- 1:55:51encounter the giver of life Himself.
- 1:55:54Jesus. The Bible says for God so loved
- 1:55:57the world that he gave his only begotten Son.
- 1:56:01He said that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but
- 1:56:04have life everlasting. 17 John 3 says for God did not send his
- 1:56:09Son to the world to condemn the world, but that the world
- 1:56:13through him might believe. Let me speak to someone for one
- 1:56:17moment, perhaps all through the service.
- 1:56:19As you watched, our graduates now filed to receive the
- 1:56:23impartation, to receive awards through the chairs, the
- 1:56:27rejoicing, the crying, the receiving, whilst you sat
- 1:56:31quietly wherever you sat, or perhaps you were following
- 1:56:35online, the Holy Ghost began to minister to you that what you
- 1:56:39just saw was a template of what your life could be.
- 1:56:43I agree with him that it is so, but not under every condition.
- 1:56:47The Bible says God desires that all men be saved 1st and then
- 1:56:52they come unto the knowledge of the truth and that when you find
- 1:56:56that truth, it is able to build you.
- 1:56:58Allow me the honor of leading you to this Jesus, the one who's
- 1:57:02changed my life, the one who's changed the life of everyone you
- 1:57:07so admire in the Kingdom, the reason for which we are
- 1:57:10gathered, the wisdom behind the things that we have done, the
- 1:57:15giver of the grace that you have seen at work.
- 1:57:18Tonight I'm going to make the altar call and I want to be very
- 1:57:22simple tonight. You don't need any rhetorics to
- 1:57:25play games with your mind. You know that.
- 1:57:28You need Jesus the Holy Ghost speaking to you.
- 1:57:31Now He's telling you that if that call is made, you should be
- 1:57:35the first to run to Jesus. I'll make 2 calls in one.
- 1:57:37Number one for those who are saying apostle, if you will give
- 1:57:41me an opportunity. No one has allowed me that room,
- 1:57:45that platform to make it right with Jesus.
- 1:57:48But now on hearing you, I want to come and start afresh with
- 1:57:52Jesus and then call #2 those who are saying, I recall being born
- 1:57:57again, giving my life to Jesus, but something happened along the
- 1:58:00way. And right now I cannot say that
- 1:58:03I have a functional relationship with Jesus.
- 1:58:06I want to rededicate my life to Jesus.
- 1:58:08All of you in the main auditorium, across the
- 1:58:11balconies, and then all the other auditoriums, as many who
- 1:58:15can make it to the frontier. As I make my call, I'll count 1
- 1:58:18to 5 and I'm looking for bold, serious people who are saying I
- 1:58:23know that my life can be more than it is now and I want to
- 1:58:26make it right with Jesus. Once the front is filled, then
- 1:58:30I'll request all those, particularly those outside and
- 1:58:33all other overflows. You may want to walk to your LED
- 1:58:36screen and just stand patiently as I lead you in prayer for
- 1:58:39those who have following across the globe.
- 1:58:42When I pray with these ones, please do join in making your
- 1:58:46declaration of faith. Are you ready?
- 1:58:48Now begin my account one. Let's celebrate them as they
- 1:58:51come. Let's celebrate someone who is
- 1:58:54bold and courageous enough to begin or bold and courageous
- 1:58:59enough to begin afresh, Jesus said as many who.
- 1:59:05Will come to him. He will.
- 1:59:06In no wise castaway Koinonia, you should do better than this.
- 1:59:11Let's celebrate them, Let's encourage them.
- 1:59:12God bless you, my brother. God bless you, my sister.
- 1:59:16Apostle. I want to come, but I'm not sure
- 1:59:18if I'm saved. You can join them.
- 1:59:21There's such a thing as the assurance of salvation.
- 1:59:24Young, old, male, female, rich or otherwise, you can make your
- 1:59:28way to Jesus. Is the way, the truth, the life.
- 1:59:32I see a few people coming. Please make haste double up.
- 1:59:35God bless you. Make haste, double up.
- 1:59:40I want to lead you to Jesus. Jesus, the one who is able to
- 1:59:42change the life of any man, any man.
- 1:59:48Hallelujah. Two.
- 1:59:51I'm still counting 3 four final count.
- 1:59:58And then we pray. 5 Let's thank the Lord for all these ones, and
- 2:00:02for all who are scattered across the overflows.
- 2:00:05For those who are online now, I'm about to pray.
- 2:00:07You can join them in prayer. Let me request you, my brothers
- 2:00:09and sisters, lift your hands high above your head as a sign
- 2:00:13of surrender. Say this after me as loud and as
- 2:00:15clear as you can. Say Lord Jesus one more time.
- 2:00:18Say Lord Jesus tonight. I have heard your word.
- 2:00:24I have seen your power. I declare that I love you with
- 2:00:28all my heart. I believe that you died for me.
- 2:00:34I believe that you are the Son of the living God.
- 2:00:38I believe that you rose again for my justification right now.
- 2:00:45I receive Jesus into my heart as my Lord, my Savior, and my King.
- 2:00:53I declare that the power of sin, Satan, hell and the grave is
- 2:01:00broken over my life from tonight.
- 2:01:04I am a child of God. I go forward ever and backwards
- 2:01:08never. Amen.
- 2:01:09Keep your hands lifted Father. Thank you for these ones.
- 2:01:12Your word declares that as many who will come to you, you will
- 2:01:15in no wise castaway. These ones have come with
- 2:01:18humility of hearts, declaring Your lordship over their lives.
- 2:01:21I pray by the authority of Scripture and in honor to your
- 2:01:25confession of faith that your sins are hereby forgiven.
- 2:01:29And in the name of Jesus, I declare you bona fide recipients
- 2:01:32of the life of God. The grace to live the victorious
- 2:01:35Christian life is imparted upon you.
- 2:01:38And I pray that from tonight you begin your walk of faith
- 2:01:41victoriously. You'll go from glory to glory
- 2:01:44and grace to grace. The power of sin set and hell
- 2:01:47and the grave is broken over your life.
- 2:01:50Welcome to a new season in Jesus matchless name.
- 2:01:53We pray, Amen. Please look at my right.
- 2:01:57A number of you did not pray the prayer.
- 2:01:58Don't worry, the counselors will help to pray the prayer of
- 2:02:01salvation with you. But move to my right.
- 2:02:04That will be your left from where you are.
- 2:02:06And there are counselors who will receive you have a word and
- 2:02:08a prayer with you very quickly. Let's honor them.
- 2:02:12Let's honor them. Hallelujah.
- 2:02:16Praise the name of the Lord. So one more time, I want to say
- 2:02:19thank you to all who took their time to visit with us,
- 2:02:22particularly those visiting for the first time and those who
- 2:02:26came to honor are now graduates. Thank you very much for the
- 2:02:30time. I pray that God will bless you
- 2:02:33and rejoicing will never depart from your home in Jesus name.
- 2:02:38I know that as usual, it's customary for students to have
- 2:02:41their photos, their snapshots and all of that.
- 2:02:44Your awards and not awards. Your certificates already ready.
- 2:02:48Immediately after the service, you'll be guided on how to
- 2:02:50receive them. Please do cooperate with the
- 2:02:53departments concerned and then you'll be allowed to take your
- 2:02:57photos with yourselves and friends and family.
- 2:03:00Albeit, let's do it with decency and within the boundaries that
- 2:03:05are created so we don't make the whole rowdy praise the name of
- 2:03:09the Lord. Just a few announcements this
- 2:03:12week we're travelling to a few places.
- 2:03:15Usually I would not make the announcement but sometimes I
- 2:03:17make that to encourage the ministries concern.
- 2:03:21So Tuesday we're in Taraba Jalingo preaching for the
- 2:03:27Anglican Communion on the Bishop foreman.
- 2:03:30Very good man. So Tuesday, Wednesday when
- 2:03:34Taraba, from there we move straight to worry.
- 2:03:36Thursday we'll be in worry preaching for Papa IO.
- 2:03:40Just one session and then from there, Friday Street, I moved to
- 2:03:47my village for a few hours again to dedicate a seminary there.
- 2:03:53So we have one of our great fathers.
- 2:03:57He told me he was a friend to my grandfather.
- 2:04:02Can you imagine that? And so he built is one of the
- 2:04:05oldest men. I think if I'm one of the oldest
- 2:04:08men, great, great, vibrant, still talks, you would think
- 2:04:13he's a young man, but he's in his 90s.
- 2:04:15And so he built a seminary and I have the honor of dedicating and
- 2:04:21commissioning the seminary. So Friday, all of you who are in
- 2:04:24my village, I'll be there, find where the venue is, be on your
- 2:04:28way there. And let's go and honor Baba.
- 2:04:31Let's give him that the honor that is befitting and then
- 2:04:35hopefully just say a prayer over the land one more time.
- 2:04:38And then we return back. And then, of course, once we
- 2:04:41return back, we now begin to brace up for the sound of
- 2:04:44revival. Hallelujah.
- 2:04:48By the way, please, let's have the posters.
- 2:04:50Let's pray for a minute over the sound of revival.
- 2:04:54So the sound of revival. New York will pray over New
- 2:04:57York. And then?
- 2:05:01All of you who are in the United States, regardless where once
- 2:05:04you are in the US, please make your way.
- 2:05:07All roads lead to New York. It will be two days, three
- 2:05:10sessions of intense worship, the teaching of the Word, prayer,
- 2:05:14impartation, soul winning. There's still room, I believe,
- 2:05:19to participate. You can scan the QR code, use
- 2:05:22the links to register. If you are yet to, It will be an
- 2:05:26awesome time. Very, very awesome time there
- 2:05:29you go. So please make sure that you not
- 2:05:32only register, invite all others and find out all the sessions
- 2:05:37available, you at liberty to reach our PR or media and
- 2:05:41they'll guide you on all the sessions available even beyond
- 2:05:46the conference at this there's, there's supposed to be two No 3
- 2:05:52sessions and a Sunday service. So you had liberty to also
- 2:05:56register if the space is still available.
