1:08
Speaker 2: The next two or three minutes. I want your eyes
1:11
to be fixed on Jesus whilst you pray a desperate
1:15
prayer from your heart. Father, let the rain fall on me.
1:21
Let the rain fall on me. Go ahead and pray
1:25
from the depth of your heart. Let the rain Isaiah
1:30
that you're two and verse fifteen, until the spirit be
1:33
poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness be
1:38
a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for
1:43
a forest. Oh glorious God, we praise your name. We

3:28
shabah lac chabra laco subs sad devil lego, subra devil lego,
3:35
spressta malato. For Jesus much less name, we pray for
3:52
in Jesus' much less name, we pray spirit of the
3:58
Living God. We asked that again you breathe upon us
4:02
in this atmosphere of worship and the word let us
4:06
be changed in your presence in the name of Jesus Christ,
4:12
by the power that is in the name of Jesus.
4:14
Let every closed door be opened this morning. In Jesus' name,
4:20
we pray, let every closed door be opened this morning.
4:26
I'm profesign it to someone who has faith to believe
4:30
that every door that has refused to open for no
4:34
matter how long, I call on the power that raised
4:38
Christ from the dead, opening the door of Heades for
4:43
the King to arise triumphant. I decree and declare in
4:47
the name of Jesus, May that door be opened now.
4:52
May that door be opened now? And we PROFESSI already
4:58
lift up your heads, oh ye get and being lifted
5:02
in shed doors, that the King of Glory would come
5:06
in in the name of Jesus the doors and the gates,
5:10
be lifted for your sake, Be lifted for your sake,
5:14
Be lifted for your sake. In Jesus' name, We pray
5:20
God bless you and please be seated. Allelujah. I have
5:31
a few thoughts that I want to share with us
5:33
this morning. Very briefly, I understand that this session is
5:39
particularly for business people and leaders and I like to
5:43
talk to people in business, people in power, people in leadership.
5:48
The reason is because the Kingdom operates based on the
5:54
structure of leadership and authority, and whatever happens to a
5:59
thoughtthority to power affects all of the people within a territory. Allelujah.
6:06
The Bible says to strike the shepherd, and he says
6:09
the sheep will scatter. So Satan is always interested in
6:13
leadership and interested in people who have capacity within a territory. Allelujah.
6:20
Now let me start this morning by reiterating on something
6:26
that I said yesterday. It is important for the believer
6:30
to understand and please lend me attention.
6:33
Speaker 3: It is important.
6:34
Speaker 2: Can I have a little just amplification on the volume,
6:37
Thank you, technical so I can hear myself. Clara, thank you.
6:41
It's important for us to understand that the believer, the
6:47
preordination of the believer in Christ is that your life
6:52
eventually becomes a manifestation of the glory of God upon
6:57
the earth.
6:58
Speaker 3: Allelujah.
7:00
Speaker 2: To start with that statement is a very simple but
7:03
profound statement that there is a preordination to every believer
7:08
in Christ, and that includes you and I, that in Christ,
7:13
our corporate prophetic destiny is that, regardless how you start,
7:20
regardless the current situation, that the end of your journey
7:25
in Christ should be that your life becomes, in experience
7:29
a manifestation of the glory of God.
7:33
Speaker 3: Allelujah.
7:34
Speaker 2: That is God's goal for you, beyond just the experience
7:39
of the afterlife, that God in his mind in the
7:43
design of man, that he had this at the back
7:47
of his mind, that the end of the believer's Johnny
7:52
must become the manifestation of the glory of God upon
7:57
the earth. That is very important because the word glory,
8:02
like I began to discuss with us yesterday, the word
8:05
glory comes from many expressions, both Hebrew and Greek, but
8:09
two are of essence. The Greek is called cupboard, I mean,
8:14
the Hebrew is capboard, the Greek is docsa. And all
8:18
of them are an attempt to describe the value of
8:22
a person or the value of a thing. So to
8:26
understand the glory of a thing, you have to describe
8:29
the characteristic features that makes that object or that individual expensive, desirable,
8:37
or valuable.
8:37
Speaker 3: Are we together?
8:38
Speaker 2: So if I talk about the glory of my phone,
8:41
I will have to describe all the features in the
8:45
phone that makes.
8:46
Speaker 3: It perhaps expensive.
8:48
Speaker 2: If I talk about the glory of a vehicle, a car,
8:53
I would have to describe all the features that makes
8:56
that car unique. So when we talk about the glory
8:59
of God, is an attempt to capture every dimension in
9:04
God that makes him mighty, that makes him desirable. That
9:08
means his wisdom is an aspect of his glory. His
9:12
power is an aspect of his glory. Are we together?
9:14
His mercy is an aspect of his glory. In discussing
9:18
the glory of God, we have to do an elaborate
9:23
and an extensive discussion across the various dimensions of God
9:30
that makes him God. And the Bible says that is
9:33
the mandate of the believer in Christ, that your life
9:36
literally becomes a living epistle.
9:39
Speaker 3: Are we still together?
9:41
Speaker 2: Your life becomes an explanation to the multifaceted dimensions of God,
9:47
so that when people look at your life, they see
9:50
eventually the wisdom of God, the power of God, the
9:54
favor of God.
9:56
Speaker 3: They see that speed can walk in the life.
9:58
Speaker 2: Of a man. They see that restoration is possible in
10:01
the economy of God.
10:03
Speaker 3: If your life fails to capture.
10:05
Speaker 2: And to reveal the glory of God, you have lost
10:09
your prophetic Mandy.
10:12
Speaker 3: So listen carefully, please.
10:14
Speaker 2: Your assignment as a believer in truth is not to
10:17
be a business man. No. Your assignment as a believer
10:21
is not to be a preacher. No O. Your assignment
10:26
as a believer is not to be a parent. No,
10:29
not to become a politician. No. Those are just the
10:32
descriptions of the geography of your assignment. Your real assignment
10:38
is that your life eventually becomes an effulgence, a manifestation,
10:44
a description and explanation of the unknown God to your world.
10:51
It's important you understand this. When you sustain this orientation,
10:55
you will move beyond the mentality of a business man,
11:00
beyond the mentality of a student, beyond the mentality of
11:03
a preacher. I don't think like a preacher. No, My
11:07
mandate is beyond being a preacher. Preaching is only a
11:10
vehicle that helps me to manifest that mandate. There are
11:15
many believers who say, I am a business man, I
11:18
am a preacher, I am a parent, And by pegging
11:21
yourself along that thought, you limit yourself from manifesting the
11:27
fullness of the glory of God.
11:30
Speaker 3: Are we together?
11:30
Speaker 2: Now?
11:32
Speaker 3: This is very important.
11:35
Speaker 2: So your mandate, beyond business, beyond ministry, is that your
11:41
life and my life becomes eventually a manifestation of the
11:45
glory of God. Please lay your hands and turn it
11:48
into a prayer. In one minute, my life must become
11:58
shabby koski and bra someone pray, my life must become
12:07
a manifestation of the glory of God. Are we praying?
12:22
Chadi k Paru's caprene de gebel legus kiyapa. Beyond being
12:29
a business man, beyond being a preacher. Your hands on
12:34
your head, your praying Shaddy Scanni Cabarando's care de legos
12:45
siata for in Jesus name we pray. Now watch this
12:56
John chapter fifteen and verse eight. The Bible says John
13:00
fifteen and verse eight. Here really is my Father glorified
13:06
that ye bear fruit. So shall you be my disciples?
13:11
The Father is glorified when you bear much fruit. John
13:17
fifteen and verse sixteen same John, verse sixteen, fifteen sixteen
13:25
one five one six. Ye have not chosen me, but
13:30
I have chosen you and ordained you that you should
13:34
go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should
13:38
remain Galatians one twenty four. I want to show you
13:42
a few scriptures. Let's read Galatians one twenty four together.
13:46
Ready one to read? And they glorified God in me
13:52
one more time. God can be glorified in a mane,
14:02
a businessman, a preacher. God can be glorified in a
14:08
man Are we together? Many believers want to see the
14:16
glory of God manifest, but they do not know, and
14:19
they have not received for certain within their spirit that
14:24
their lives have been ordained to be a manifestation of
14:28
the glory of God. So the business man is just
14:31
doing business because he wants money. The preacher is just preaching,
14:35
perhaps because he wants members. The parent is just satisfying
14:39
the ritual of parenthood. Are we together? The politician just
14:43
finds his way in politics and is just doing.
14:46
Speaker 3: The best that he knows to do.
14:47
Speaker 2: It is a very poor orientation until you understand our
14:51
corporate destiny in Christ, that in doing business, or in
14:57
doing what you call ministry, or in doing what you
15:00
call politics, you must have this at the back of
15:03
your mind, that I have a corporate destiny. My preordination
15:07
in Christ is that my life becomes a manifestation of
15:13
the glory of God. Whether that is truth singing, whether
15:18
that is true preaching, whether that is true leadership. So
15:22
you see that when you sustain that orientation, your approach
15:25
becomes different. Business for you becomes more than buying and selling.
15:31
Business for you becomes more than a platform.
15:33
Speaker 3: To just have money.
15:36
Speaker 2: Because I can tell you, and many of you here
15:38
will bear witness that nothing in itself sustains the power
15:44
to give an individual satisfaction, not even money. There are
15:48
many billionaires and millionnaires who have committed suicide with millions
15:52
and billions in the bank. There has to be a
15:56
pursuit that is greater than the acquisition of things. There
16:00
has to be a pursuit that is greater than the
16:03
desire for power. All of these things, who come and faith.
16:08
One man who had all and still lived a frustrated
16:11
life was the man Solomon.
16:15
Speaker 3: He had wealth like no one in this place has currently.
16:18
Speaker 2: He had power that you could not imagine, he said,
16:22
confessing his own limitation, that everything my eyes saw I desired.
16:27
I don't know what kind of a man that was
16:29
Solomon for you, But at the end of his life,
16:32
here's what he said. Here is the conclusion of the matter.
16:35
Instead of reading many books, there is no end, and
16:38
much study is only a wariness to the soul, he said.
16:42
Fear the Lord and keep his commandments, he said, for
16:45
this is the whole duty of man.
16:50
Speaker 3: Are we learning this morning?
16:52
Speaker 2: So it's important for us who establish this that my
16:55
life and your life has been ordained by God Almighty
17:00
to be a manifestation of the glory of God. That
17:05
means that God that men cannot see must be revealed
17:09
in and through my life. That someone will look at
17:12
you and say, Joshua Salman, I have never seen Jesus,
17:15
but if he looks like you, then he's worth my
17:19
allegiance because your life has become a clear picture of
17:24
what Jesus looks like.
17:28
Speaker 3: Are we together?
17:30
Speaker 2: The second thought that I want you to know and
17:33
want you to have this morning is found in Jeremiah
17:37
chapter nine. We considered it briefly yesterday and I'll take
17:40
it from there Jeremiah Chapter nine, twenty three and twenty four.
17:48
Thus say the Lord, Let not the wise man glory
17:52
in his wisdom. The Bible says, neither let the mighty
17:56
man glory in his might, yet not the rich man
18:01
glory in his riches twenty four. But let him that
18:05
gloria glory in this that he understand that and know
18:09
me that I am the Lord that exercised loving kindness, judgment,
18:13
and righteousness in the earth.
18:15
Speaker 3: For in these things I delight, said the Lord.
18:18
Speaker 2: Now, while the emphasis in this verse was to take
18:23
your attention away from things to focus on the Lord,
18:28
there are three expressions of glory that I want to
18:33
call you attention to this morning. Please back to verse
18:36
twenty three. The Bible says from this scripture that the
18:43
glory of God, if it is to be revealed in
18:45
a man, there are many dimensions and many expressions of
18:50
the glory, like I told you, But there are three
18:53
of them literally that represent the manifestation of the glory
18:59
of God in a man. I hope we're still together.
19:02
Remember it started by telling you that God's ordination for
19:05
us is that our lives become a manifestation of the
19:09
glory of God, and that among the many dimensions of
19:13
glory that the Lord seeks to be made manifest in
19:16
our lives are these three dimensions number one wisdom, number
19:23
two might, or power, number three riches or wealth, that
19:33
in your seeking to be a manifestation of.
19:35
Speaker 3: The glory of God.
19:37
Speaker 2: Regardless whether you're a businessman, you're a preacher, you're a parent,
19:42
you're a public servant, it doesn't matter the geography of
19:45
your call. That if you love Jesus enough and you
19:49
desire to see His glory revealed in and through your life,
19:53
among the many manifestations of His glory that you most
19:57
seek to see revealed through your life these three one wisdom,
20:04
two might, or power, three riches. Listen, this is the
20:12
correct perspective to approach the pursuit for these things. To
20:18
blindly just look for money because you are tired of
20:21
poverty is not a spiritual orientation enough. The agenda is
20:27
beyond just having money, or beyond just being a wise man.
20:31
It is that there is a desperation from within your
20:33
spirit to see the glory of God revealed, and that
20:37
since these are the dimensions of glory that must be captured.
20:42
No matter what or that dimension of the.
20:44
Speaker 3: Glory of God is revealed.
20:46
Speaker 2: If these three are missing, you cannot reveal the glory
20:50
of God to a generation.
20:54
Speaker 3: Wisdom, might or power riches.
21:01
Speaker 2: The Bible says, using Jesus as a case study in Look,
21:05
chapter two one, verse fifty two, speaking about Jesus.
21:08
Speaker 3: You're Jesus when he walked upon the earth.
21:11
Speaker 2: The Bible says, and Jesus increased. The first aspect.
21:16
Speaker 3: Of his increase was in wisdom.
21:18
Speaker 2: Please say wisdom, Jesus being the manifestation of the glory
21:23
of the Father.
21:26
Speaker 3: For him to have truly lived.
21:29
Speaker 2: That assignment as the manifestation of the glory of the Father,
21:33
he needed wisdom. Even though he was the word himself.
21:37
Jesus increased, He did not just have wisdom. He contended
21:42
for increase. At age twelve, when those in his age
21:48
range were roaming around, the Bible says he was at
21:50
the temple to the point that his parents came and
21:55
they said, listen, we've been looking for you, And he said,
21:58
do you not know that I should be about my
22:00
father's business. And the business was not doing. The business
22:04
was learning. He sat under the scribes and the Pharisees,
22:09
and he began to learn. Many believers desire to see
22:15
the glory of God manifest through their lives, but they
22:18
have ignored wisdom. The man that ignores wisdom has also
22:24
ignored the fruits of wisdom. My Bible, your Bible says,
22:28
wisdom is the principal thing. Wisdom is the principal thing.
22:36
Wisdom is the principal thing. We excel in life and
22:42
destiny upon the strength of the wisdom of God that
22:45
is at working us. If someone learning now wisdom is profound,
22:50
many have rejected it to their detriment. But ladies and gentlemen,
22:55
those who have been able to rise in business, to
22:58
rise in ministry, to rise in destiny, are men and
23:03
women who have paid the price to allow the wisdom
23:07
of the Spirit to be made manifest in their lives.
23:11
Any two individuals, the results of any two individuals can
23:16
be explained. The disparity of their results can be explained
23:22
by the presence or the absence of wisdom. Two people
23:27
can be in construction, for instance, as a business, and
23:31
one person can fail so woefully and then another person
23:35
excel in the same garner. The difference is not the
23:39
will of God The difference is not the love of God,
23:41
for the same Lord is rich onto all.
23:44
Speaker 3: The difference is wisdom.
23:47
Speaker 2: He said, My son, pays attention to my words. Incline
23:51
your ears to my sayings. Do not let them depart
23:54
from your mouth. Keep them in the midst of your heart.
23:57
It says they are life, not to everybody, to those
24:00
that find them, and health to their flesh. Many of
24:04
us have rejected wisdom. We have a passion, with all
24:08
due respect, to make money, to be famous, to be
24:11
in ministry. It takes more than desire to rise in life.
24:16
It takes more than a good heart to rise in life.
24:20
You want to excel, You want to lead your field.
24:23
You want the glory of God to be made manifest
24:26
in business. I can't tell you. The first key you
24:29
must pursue is wisdom, the Bible says in probabs At,
24:35
he said, do not wisdom cry.
24:37
Speaker 3: Wisdom is like a woman crying.
24:40
Speaker 2: Crying. Understanding is raising her voice. Men and women in
24:45
garn and men and women in Africa, you will need
24:48
me to rise. And others have ignored the cry of wisdom,
24:51
and yet they continue to pursue the foods that only
24:54
wisdom can give. The reason why many Christians are limited,
25:02
limited in ministry, limited in life, because most believers will
25:07
not contend for wisdom.
25:10
Speaker 3: The Bible says in Dan near eleven and.
25:12
Speaker 2: Verse thirty two, we consider that scripture yesterday that the
25:18
people that do know their God, they shall be.
25:21
Speaker 3: Strong and shall do exploits.
25:24
Speaker 2: There's no time, but I wanted to see three expressions
25:28
from that scripture. The first is do know, The second
25:33
is be strong. The third is do exploit. There is knowledge,
25:41
there is becoming, then there is doing.
25:44
Speaker 3: This is how things work in the spirit.
25:47
Speaker 2: Every journey to exploit starts with knowledge. Then the knowledge
25:53
brings transformation. It is that transformed you that now acts.
25:59
Action in ignorance is a waste of energy. Action in
26:04
ignorance when you take action bankrupt of knowledge and wisdom,
26:09
it is called the labor of the fool. Have you
26:11
read such a thing in the Bible? My Bible says
26:14
the fool, even though he is not lazy, there is
26:17
something called the labor of the fool.
26:20
Speaker 3: The labor of the fool can be ministry.
26:23
Speaker 2: The fool here has not been an insult is a
26:26
description of a man that is bankrupt of wisdom. When
26:31
the Bible calls a man a fool. It's not an insult.
26:35
It is a state, the description of a man who
26:38
has rejected wisdom.
26:40
Speaker 3: The labor of the fool weary.
26:43
Speaker 2: Yet every one of them, why because he knows not
26:48
how to go into the city, not because there is
26:51
no way to the city. Ladies and gentlemen, please hear
26:55
me the things that.
26:56
Speaker 3: We desire, whether it be influenced.
27:00
Speaker 2: Whether I be higher levels of relationships, business connections. Some
27:06
of us want to excel in ministry. We're trusting God
27:10
to raise us to become voices that speak His purposes
27:14
to the nations. It will not happen just by blind desire.
27:18
There is a place for wisdom. Are we together? When
27:28
I found this in my own life, I made up
27:31
my mind that I was going to cry for wisdom.
27:35
I was aware. Can I tell you it is a
27:38
real miracle that has happened to you. When you realize
27:42
the level of your ignorance, that in itself is a miracle.
27:46
The awareness that you need help is God already helping you.
27:51
Did you get what I said? The fact that you
27:54
come into an understanding that I need help, I am
27:58
bankrupt of wisdom in business, in ministry in destiny. Even
28:04
if you don't know what to do, the fact that
28:07
you have come into an understanding of your need is
28:11
already a sign that God is working. And this is
28:14
what God is doing to someone and awareness. It is true,
28:22
you will be amazed. With all due respect, how many
28:27
people in Africa, Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa, Malawi, Zimbabwe, people
28:34
who just continue to court scriptures and jump I can't
28:37
fail and that is true according to scripture.
28:40
Speaker 3: Unfortunately, that is not the key that leads to it.
28:46
Speaker 2: Discussing and wishing success does not bring success. There are
28:50
principles to engage as far as the manifestation of the
28:54
glory of God is concerned.
28:56
Speaker 3: Allelujah.
29:01
Speaker 2: When I came in and I sat, I saw the
29:05
man of God ministring. Never seen him, just meeting him
29:08
for the first time. But I know that he's a
29:10
great worshiper within your territory and across And while while
29:16
while he was ministring, let me tell you the truth,
29:20
I was not just seeing a man who God has helped.
29:24
I was also seeing a man who has acquired wisdom.
29:33
Away together, stop wishing people's results, embrace wisdom and let
29:41
him carry you like a flight stop wishing and praying,
29:46
claiming and frustrating yourself. Know in the name, I have
29:50
to be like this preacher. No, the only aircraft that
29:54
leads men to the destiny of the great is wisdom,
29:58
and if you are not on board, you will not
30:00
get there.
30:00
Speaker 3: It's as simple as that. I hope I'm not to
30:04
rush this morning.
30:07
Speaker 2: Say wisdom in all your getting. Get understanding. What is
30:14
wisdom the awareness of truth alongside the grace to apply
30:20
them appropriately. Wisdom is the awareness of truth alongside the
30:28
grace to apply them appropriately. The power to apply truth
30:35
is what turns knowledge to wisdom. Please listen. Knowledge is important,
30:39
but it's not enough. The power to apply truth such
30:45
that it delivers the result as God intended is what
30:48
we call wisdom. Many people have knowledge, they are not
30:51
in ignorance, but they have not sustained the power to apply.
30:58
There are hardly any things that I'll be saying this
31:00
morning that you have not heard before. But the reason
31:03
why it has not worked for you is because it's still.
31:06
Speaker 3: At the realm of knowledge.
31:07
Speaker 2: Until it translates to wisdom, it cannot deliver. Let not
31:16
the wise man glory in his wisdom. So wisdom is
31:20
one of the expressions of the glory of God. Ladies
31:23
and gentlemen, I submit to you by the authority of Scripture.
31:26
Speaker 3: It is a beautiful thing to.
31:28
Speaker 2: See a man and a woman who has invested in
31:32
becoming a manifestation of the wisdom of God. Your life
31:35
becomes beautiful and explanation. Show me a business man who
31:42
has paid the price to be wise, Show me a
31:45
preacher who has paid the price to be wise. Show
31:49
me a parent who has paid the price to be wise.
31:52
And ladies and gentlemen, the Word of God is the
31:56
compendium of the wisdom of God.
31:58
Speaker 3: We learn wisdom of God when we.
32:02
Speaker 2: Have a thorror understanding of His ways has revealed in
32:07
his word.
32:09
Speaker 3: Are we together?
32:11
Speaker 2: And that from a child thou hast known the Holy Scripture,
32:15
which is able to make you wise onto salvation. The
32:20
word of God can make men wise. Did you hear
32:23
what I said? The Word of God, the Bible, as
32:26
we know it, is the richest capture of the wisdom
32:30
of God. No man can truly become if you ignore
32:34
the word of God. It is in his light that
32:37
we see light. The Bible can turn a foolish man
32:42
to become a wise man. Can you listen. The proof
32:46
of wisdom is shown in the superiority of your decisions.
32:52
You know that the wisdom of God is at work
32:55
in your life because of the quality of the decisions
32:58
that you make, and in truth, decisions decide destiny. My
33:05
life and your life today is a messless reflection of
33:10
the decisions that we have taken. With all due respect
33:14
that I do not mean to insult your pedigree nor intelligence.
33:17
If you are poor today, it's beyond the devil. The
33:21
devil is an opportunist. He does not just act until
33:24
a certain atmosphere prepared for him. There are a class
33:30
of demon spirits that are called rulers of darkness. Their
33:34
dominion starts everywhere there is no light.
33:38
Speaker 3: Allelujah. If you've not risen.
33:42
Speaker 2: To your prophetic potential in ministry, in business, in leadership,
33:49
take responsibility this morning. Don't just blame Satan, don't just
33:54
blame government, don't just blame men. Stand this morning and
33:58
cry for wisdom and say, Father, I'm tired of making
34:02
foolish mistakes, relational mistakes, financial mistakes. God has been merciful
34:09
to many of us from the start to the end
34:11
of this year. But we've not been able to maximize
34:14
destiny because we are bankrupt of wisdom. Is it all
34:18
right if I request that you lay your hands one
34:20
more time on your head and cry for the spirit
34:23
of wisdom. Go ahead, shamakusafra di ballahkusiprendegability, someone, pray the
34:33
spirit of wisdom. The spirit of wisdom, restop on my life,
34:45
Rest upon my business, rest upon my ministry. Tired of
34:50
making mistakes, My decisions have been poor. My decisions have
34:57
been inferior, leading me to losses, leading me to pay,
35:03
leading me to disappointments. I keep going around in circles.
35:09
I content for wisdom. Let the spirit of wisdom become
35:13
my bell out out of a life of mediocrity, a
35:17
life of failure. Oh, go ahead and pray for the
35:31
way of the Law, in the way of wisdom. I
35:39
choose the way of the loan for the way of
35:47
the Lord. In the way of wisdom. I choose the
35:54
way of the Lord. A few more seconds, for the
36:00
way of the Law is the way of Westam. I
36:09
choose the way of the law. For the way after
36:17
the law is the way of we wisdom. I choose
36:25
the way of the Law. Allelujah, First King, Chapter four,
36:36
twenty eight and twenty nine Halla suprandigabalia copra cosatus.
36:42
Speaker 3: Go to verse twenty nine.
36:44
Speaker 2: Please and God death Solomon, wisdom and understanding, exceeding much
36:54
and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is
36:59
on the issue. Who gave God, who gives wisdom? Does
37:06
any man luck wisdom? The Bible says, Let him ask?
37:11
Let him ask, how do you know you luck wisdom?
37:14
Because your life is not making progress. Every decision you
37:18
make lands you in trouble. Financial decisions lands you in pain.
37:23
Business decisions keep you recycling around the realm. They must come.
37:28
You must get tired of your current condition and say, Father,
37:31
there has to be a way out. You anointed me.
37:34
You've called me to be great. What is limiting my greatness?
37:38
The Bible says. And God gave. God gave Joshua Selman,
37:42
and God gave God still gives men men who are
37:46
humble enough to ask, are we together?
37:51
Speaker 3: I hope God is speaking to us this morning.
37:54
Speaker 2: I can tell you sincerely, when the wisdom of God
37:58
lands upon your business, I give you a guarantee. One
38:01
year is too much for you to rise. Believe me,
38:05
I'm not talking of Sofia human wisdom. It is by
38:13
wisdom that the great rise in life. Even those who
38:17
are not of God, they consult with familiar spirits and
38:21
they fraternize with dark powers in an attempt to simulate
38:25
divine wisdom. There is nothing extraordinary on earth that happens
38:30
just by human capacity. No, don't be fooled by people
38:36
who hide their spiritual orientation and make it They make
38:40
it look like they're just all intellectual. Is a lie.
38:44
There are dimensions of results you can never attain on earth,
38:48
whether diabolically or with God. A spirit must assist you
38:54
to move beyond a certain presshold. It is true. I
39:00
don't care whether that is in business. I don't care
39:03
whether that is in ministry. Man cannot rise or assisted.
39:09
Spirits always assist men to rise, whether it is a
39:12
demonic spirit or it is the spirit of the living God.
39:16
But there are certain levels of influence, greatness results that
39:21
if you ever see a mortal man carry, it is
39:24
because that man has been helped by your spirit. Husaiah
39:31
prospered because he was mazealously helped of the Lord. I'm
39:36
saying this because someone you are at a point in
39:39
your life now where you need to be tired of
39:42
your current result giving explanations who keep you frustrated? Remember
39:47
I told you your preordination in Christ is that your
39:50
life becomes a manifestation of the glory of God. If
39:54
your life fails to reveal the glory of God, you
39:56
would die of jealousy and anger. You will be angry?
40:00
Are people? I start the ministry before this one? I
40:03
start that that is not the issue. Whoever has wisdom
40:06
is the one who rises, not who starts fast.
40:20
Speaker 3: Are we together.
40:24
Speaker 2: H By wisdom, Mo God, Heaven's gates open up with understanding.
40:34
You order the seasons, creating day and night, turning darkness
40:42
into lights, arranging the stars to your pleasing. By wisdom, mo, Card,
40:52
Heaven's gates open up with understanding, You order the season.
40:59
Let's when I realize in my life that I was
41:03
bankrupt of the wisdom of God.
41:06
Speaker 3: I went to the Lord in tears and in prayer.
41:08
Do not send me.
41:09
Speaker 2: If you will not give me wisdom, I will only
41:12
waste my time and punish the destinies of.
41:15
Speaker 3: Millions in ignorance.
41:18
Speaker 2: Even if not for my sake, any leader here I
41:21
can tell you, with all due respect, I don't care
41:24
the intellectual qualification you have leadership intoday's world has become
41:30
more spiritual than ever. You will need wisdom. If all
41:34
you have is a piece of paper, I respect it,
41:38
but get ready to pay very huge price with the wickedness,
41:41
the prejudices, and the biases that exists in our world.
41:47
We live in a world where the color of your
41:49
skin can become the prison that keeps you today. We
41:53
live in a world where your tribal affiliations can become
41:56
a reason for your downfall. The edge for you is
42:00
the wisdom of God. I'm speaking to someone who has struggled.
42:05
I'm speaking to a man of God who was genuinely
42:08
called but is right now getting frustrated in ministry because
42:12
you've done all you know to do, no money, no membership,
42:16
no leadership, no influence. Yet you are genuinely called of character.
42:21
The problem is the absence of wisdom. Wisdom is so superior.
42:26
When it lands in your life, the results speak immediately.
42:34
I hope you believe what you're hearing. The Bible says
42:38
Solomon offered.
42:39
Speaker 3: A thousand bond offerings.
42:41
Speaker 2: Then the Lord comes to him in First King chapter
42:43
three and says, Solomon, now that you have done this
42:46
you have attracted my attention through your sacrifice. What do
42:49
I give you? And the young boy Solomon said, God,
42:53
I am a young person, and you have made me
42:55
a leader over all these your people. Who am I
42:58
in this frail this my frailty. I'm not able to
43:02
lead these people. But then it says that you give
43:05
me a wise and an understanding heart. And the Bible says,
43:09
because you have not asked for the life of your enemies,
43:12
or money, or power or all of these things, the
43:15
understanding heart, indeed, I will give you bought. In addition,
43:18
I will give you riches, wealth, and honor such as
43:21
no man had had. This man woke up in the morning.
43:24
If you were a Solomon's roommate, you will never know
43:27
that he had received something. You just said, good morning, sir,
43:30
not knowing the version of the person you slept on
43:32
the same bed with is no longer the version that
43:34
has woken up. Let me prophesy to someone in the
43:37
name of Jesus Christ. The weak you, the you that
43:43
has not sustained the wisdom and intelligence of the spirit
43:46
that came here, will never be that version of you
43:50
that returns back. I pray for someone a baptism of
43:55
the spirit of wisdom. Let it rest upon you now,
43:58
a baptism of the spirit of wisdom. Let it rest
44:02
upon you now. Please be seated. Let me repeat myself
44:10
one last time before we proceed. The proof of wisdom
44:16
is the quality of the decisions that you make, which
44:21
translate to the quality of your life. Decisions, decide destiny,
44:29
spiritual decisions, intellectual decisions, relational decisions, financial decisions, corporate and
44:37
organizational decisions. The proof of wisdom is seen in the
44:43
quality of decisions. So Solomon the wise, his wisdom is
44:49
about to be tested. Everybody, please let me have your attention.
44:53
Solomon sits as king. And the first case that is
44:56
brought to test this wisdom was the case of two
44:59
women two halrds. The Bible lets us know that those
45:04
women slept, and for whatever reason, they slept on their children.
45:09
I wish I had time. This is very powerful, because
45:14
the children there are just beyond human beings. They speak
45:16
of visions. One killed her vision by sleeping on it.
45:23
And then the Bible says, while it was night they
45:27
exchanged the children, and by morning there was all kinds
45:31
of trouble, and they went and stood before King Solomon
45:36
verse seventeen of First Kings, the Bible says, the woman said,
45:41
I was delivered with child, and it was in a house.
45:44
Speaker 3: And then when you.
45:44
Speaker 2: Read on verse eighteen, Solomon now is in a diloma.
45:48
He's standing with these women, and the other woman is saying,
45:52
this one killed my child. The Bible says, Solomon said,
45:57
there is a solution to this. He said, bring me
46:00
the sword the moment the word of God was introduced,
46:04
which is the sword of the spirit. The person who
46:08
was guilty was immediately. Solomon said, no, the wisdom I
46:13
have received is beyond the realm of intellect. I only
46:17
activate that wisdom when the word of God is in
46:20
partnership with my thinking.
46:22
Speaker 3: He said, bring me the sword.
46:24
Speaker 2: The moment the sword arrives, there will be a clear separation,
46:29
and there will be an explanation. The woman who had
46:32
the child said, no, instead of me losing my child
46:35
my vision. I love this vision so much, even if
46:38
I'm not the person who takes care of it, Please
46:41
give it to her. And he said, that is it
46:43
wisdom demonstrated through I don't know what I would have
46:48
done if I were Solomon. Maybe I would have carried
46:52
the child and told two of them to just go away.
46:54
I will keep the child in the palace. You got
47:01
the glory that would be someone's song. You got the breaks,
47:07
you take the yarder. I just want to say thank you.
47:14
So we mine like be glory, fat, be glory, fine,
47:28
be the place, be glory five, Be glory five. You
47:40
got the glory, you got the breaks, you take the yarder.
47:49
I just want to say thank you. Let not the
47:55
wise man glory in his wisdom.
47:59
Speaker 3: Let's go to the two quickly.
48:02
Speaker 2: The second index, the second piller that becomes the expression
48:09
of God's glory in the life of any believer, any businessman,
48:15
any leader, is called might or power. Let's discuss power.
48:21
What is power? Power is define number one as the
48:33
force that compels compliance. Please write it down my definition
48:40
of power. Number one the force that compels compliance, the
48:51
force that compels compliance. Number two. Power is defined as
49:07
the supernatural ability to produce God's dimension of results. The
49:14
supernatural ability to produce God's dimension of results is called power.
49:25
In physics, many of us who are science based, we
49:31
study among the many laws, the laws of mechanics. We
49:36
come to study about the laws that were posolated by
49:38
a man called Sir Isaac Newton, and he posolated three
49:43
laws of motion in his study of Mechanics, and the
49:47
law number one, he stated that everybody remains in a
49:52
state of rest or uniform motion, except compelled by an
49:57
external force to act otherwise. The meaning of that is
50:01
that if I drop this right here, theoretically it should
50:09
remain here even after one hundred years. If it ever moves,
50:14
it is because a force was exerted that is greater
50:18
than the force keeping it here.
50:20
Speaker 3: This is what you were saying. Do you know what
50:21
that means?
50:22
Speaker 2: Your life will remain where it is until a force
50:25
greater than.
50:26
Speaker 3: What is holding you pushes you to the next level.
50:30
Speaker 2: Everybody say power, shout power, yes, sir man, advancing life
50:39
on the strength of the kind and the dimension of power,
50:44
intellectual power, relational power, but the greatest of all is
50:49
spiritual power. Away together. There are people today who are
50:55
built businesses, and you say this man is powerful simply
50:59
because of the stretch of relationships they have around them.
51:03
They know this person, they know that person, they know this,
51:07
and they can tell you don't touch me. There are
51:10
consequences to touching me. They may not have the ability
51:13
to find you physically, but they have relational power. There
51:18
are those who have intellectual power. Deaths of destinies open
51:23
when they step in. Because of the sacrifice. They have
51:26
developed themselves so much. Institutions have acknowledged that they are powerful.
51:32
Ladies and gentlemen. If you are powerless in this world,
51:36
you will never rise the greatest of all available to all.
51:42
Not everybody, sadly, has had the privilege and the opportunity
51:47
to be educated, perhaps to the level that they desire.
51:51
Not everybody has had the opportunity to be so relationally
51:55
connected to the people that matter. But one advantage that
51:59
everybody can and have is access to the Holy Spirit,
52:02
alongside the power that he brings. The Bible says in Acts,
52:07
chapter ten and verse thirty eight, how God anointed Jesus,
52:12
your Jesus, who increase in wisdom, did not just stop
52:16
at the realm of wisdom when it has to do
52:19
with delivering and those that were oppressed wisdom was not
52:24
mentioned here. The Bible says, anointed with the Holy Ghost
52:28
and with power, and he went about. It's impossible to
52:33
be full of power and be stagnated. When you are
52:36
full of power, you will go about, you will move
52:38
from place to place, The Bible says, for God was
52:43
with him.
52:45
Speaker 3: Why do we need power? Two reasons?
52:48
Speaker 2: Number one, because the Bible tells us that we live
52:53
in an evil world. Please listen carefully. The entire world
52:57
is immersed in wickedness, and the Bible does not hide
53:01
that fat He says, Now we are of God, and
53:05
the whole world that includes Ghana. The whole world is
53:10
under the sway of the evil one. Why do we
53:13
need power? The thief comet not but for to steal,
53:17
to kill, and to destroy. Why do we need power?
53:21
The Gates of Hell a description of demonic forces that
53:26
are determined. Jesus himself said, I will build my church.
53:30
When he said that the adversary the gates of Hell,
53:33
I think it's Second Peter or so chapter five. If
53:36
I recall, he said, be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary,
53:41
the devil, go about like a roaring lion, seeking whom
53:48
he may devolve. And let me tell you the truth,
53:51
most people don't know how hard working the devil is.
53:54
When God probab him himself from Whence commet down, he said, from.
53:58
Speaker 3: Moving toe and through the earth.
54:00
Speaker 2: The person who can move the length and breadth of
54:02
the earth is not a lazy person. The probability that
54:05
he will come around your neighborhood is one hundred percent,
54:08
and he will come. Why do you need power? There
54:13
are forces determined to see that your children do not rise.
54:17
Speaker 3: Why do you need power?
54:19
Speaker 2: There are forces that are vowed that your influence will
54:21
be covered forever.
54:23
Speaker 3: Why do you need power?
54:24
Speaker 2: Because the realm of the spirit is power dependent anything.
54:29
The language in the spirit is the language of power.
54:33
It takes power to be wealthy beyond knowledge, no wonder God,
54:37
this ment the power to prosper. Are we together? Palm
54:42
sixty six and verse three, say unto God, how terrible
54:46
art thou in thy walks through the greatness of Thy power?
54:51
Shall thy enemies so meet themselves to you? Matthew ten
55:00
Verse one. Jesus himself training the disciples, is about to
55:05
send them now to go and preach. The Bible says.
55:08
When he had called the twelve disciples, he gave them
55:12
power against everybody. Said power against, Yes, there is power
55:18
against on clean spirits, any spirit that is not the
55:22
Holy Spirit, demonic spirits, to cast them out and to
55:28
heal all manner of sicknesses, and all manner of diseases.
55:33
Most believers have ignored the ministry of power. In fact,
55:37
Jesus said, I think that should be in look look
55:41
twenty four, so verse forty eight, forty nine thereabout he said,
55:45
but tarry ye in Jerusalem until you be endued with
55:51
power from on high. Tarry in Jerusalem until you be
55:57
endued with power. In Mark chapter one, verse thirty four,
56:04
Angel Gabriel comes to Mary and brings some news that
56:09
she's going to be with child. I hope that I'm
56:12
right on that. Look, I think that should be Look
56:14
one thirty four. Please find it for me, And he said,
56:17
how shall these things be? Seeing that I know not
56:21
a man ganna? Listen, someone is asking a question, Now,
56:26
how will I rise? How will prophecy come to pass?
56:30
Coming from the kind of family I came from? Is
56:33
it possible to emerge to thrive? The answize in verse
56:38
thirty five, Look one, Harlenlujah. The angel answered and said
56:42
on to her, the Holy Goos shall come upon you
56:47
and the power of the highest maris Co Shara Gabaracosia
56:54
branda gabelecaciata. How shall it happen that your music means
57:00
will be heard all over Ghana. How Shalid happened that
57:04
your business will rise and you will be dealing with nations.
57:07
Speaker 3: At the transcontinental level.
57:10
Speaker 2: How Shalid happened that a young person who came from
57:13
Takarate or from Kommasi, the vaultile region or Acra, from
57:17
that lowly estate. How does Gideon rise to become a
57:22
mighty man? It is called the power of the Holy Spirit.
57:28
Speaker 3: Do you believe this?
57:32
Speaker 2: Men rise because they acquire power that is greater than
57:36
what keeps them down. There are forces that have kept
57:39
our parents, forces that have kept people in your family.
57:43
For some of you, you are the first of your family,
57:46
your entire lineage to even a time to rise.
57:50
Speaker 3: Let me speak to.
57:50
Speaker 2: Someone the power that has kept you down, that will
57:54
not let you a rise, that will not let you shine.
57:57
In the name of Jesus, I come by the run
58:00
of the Apostolic and the Prophetic, and I declare, arise,
58:05
and shy, arise, and shy business man hear me arise,
58:12
and shy man of God arise, and shy Prophet of God,
58:19
Arise and shy. How shall these things be? Saying that
58:29
I know not a man, how shall these things be?
58:33
Can I tell you please look up. Don't miss tonight's session.
58:39
I'm talking to leaders and business people. But I want
58:42
to tell you this. Believing that there are no forces
58:46
by default that I interested in keeping you down is
58:51
a joke.
58:51
Speaker 3: You better a wake up.
58:55
Speaker 2: When Nataniel thought Jesus, he said, can anything go come
59:00
out of Nazareth? He was not lying. The last guy
59:04
that came out of Nazareth, have you forgotten about him?
59:07
Called Samson. Nazarenes did not have longevity of impact. They
59:12
would only last for a short time, and a foce
59:15
will bring them down. You saw it happen to Sathing.
59:18
So when they said, Jesus, one Nasa ring, forget it.
59:21
It will not last. There is a spirit that keeps
59:24
them down. There are many of you today. You cannot
59:31
rise because there are forces. A man of God goes up,
59:34
goes down, a businessman goes up, goes down to the exit.
59:39
When they see you rising, their love and say, don't worry.
59:41
But I PROFERSI to someone in the name of Jesus,
59:45
the Son of the Living God. Every handwriting and every ordinance,
59:49
every enchantment, every covenant that connects you with the limitations
59:55
of your territory. I come by the road of a
59:57
higher priesthood, and I speak to you in the name
1:00:01
of Jesus Christ.
1:00:03
Speaker 4: Arise, Shine, Arise, Shine, Arise, Shine in ministry, Arise, Shine
1:00:14
in business, Arise Shine.
1:00:27
Speaker 2: It is the power of God that makes men signs
1:00:30
and wonders beyond your territory, beyond the limitations. Do you
1:00:42
believe what I'm teaching you for as long as you
1:00:46
ignore the ministry of power? Don't you say power is
1:00:51
just for men of God and preachers. The Bible says
1:00:55
strong men retain world. It takes power to return your
1:01:00
position in life and destiny. You cannot produce God's dimension
1:01:08
of results by the strength of the flesh.
1:01:11
Speaker 3: Listen to me, Please hear me. Don't be distracted. Listen.
1:01:17
Speaker 2: I have met in my life sincere men of God,
1:01:22
people who have character like no order, sounding scripture like
1:01:28
no order, but their doors never open. These are people,
1:01:33
you know. When you listen to them, you can almost
1:01:36
ask why are you still at this level? The nation
1:01:40
should be hearing what God has put in you, But
1:01:42
there are forces that sat upon them. Every one of us,
1:01:53
including the man who is speaking to you, we all
1:01:55
came from backgrounds where there are spirits that don't let
1:01:59
men rise.
1:02:00
Speaker 3: When you see men rise, the devil was forced to
1:02:03
release them well together.
1:02:07
Speaker 2: He said, I have heard of the cry of my people, exodors,
1:02:10
shout the three by reason of your taskmasters, and I
1:02:14
am calmed down. Cali kusk.
1:02:17
Speaker 3: They gave a legusiata.
1:02:19
Speaker 2: Someone shall say, Father, every power keeping my destiny down,
1:02:26
keeping my influence down, my business down, by the power
1:02:31
that restaurants from the dead. I declare my release. Now,
1:02:35
I declare my exodus. Now open your mountain one minute
1:02:39
and pray, shake, take cabraska, barrikata and pray court got tabariata,
1:02:50
Come on, pray. How shall these things be? Saying that
1:02:55
I know not the man, he said, the holy girls
1:02:58
shall come upon you. And the power of the highs.
1:03:05
Power to advance, power to rise beyond territorial limitations, power
1:03:12
to become a voice that speaks his praises to the nations.
1:03:17
Power to be a manifestation of the glory of God. Please,
1:03:33
don't be tired. Your destiny is changing in the spirit.
1:03:37
Don't be silent. Shamkas katabar and break cataba and braata.
1:03:45
In the name of Jesus, we swing open the curtains
1:03:49
of destiny to make constructive advance man in spite of
1:03:55
the limited power. Allelujah, allelujah, please listen to me. When
1:04:29
I was about to start ministry, I remember the late
1:04:37
Pat Robinson, the founder of seven hundred club SIBN.
1:04:43
Speaker 3: I once watched the documentary.
1:04:46
Speaker 2: Where he was just speaking about what he did when
1:04:50
he was a young man about to start ministry, and
1:04:53
he said he went to the Lord to pray, and
1:04:56
he said, Father, give me three things. Number one, give
1:05:00
me wisdom. Number two, give me favor. Number three, give
1:05:06
me the power of the Holy Spirit. I went and
1:05:10
I cried before God in fasting and prayer. I said,
1:05:14
if that is what you gave this man for him
1:05:16
to rise, then Father, give me wisdom.
1:05:19
Speaker 3: I prayed, and I said, Lord, give me power.
1:05:22
Speaker 2: It would take more than a salmon to cause a generation.
1:05:25
Speaker 3: To hear you.
1:05:26
Speaker 2: You what I said. The Bible says the Greek sik
1:05:31
for a sign, it takes more than a simon. The
1:05:35
world today is too busy. There must be fire burning
1:05:39
for Moses to turn and see takes more than a simon.
1:05:46
Let me speak to those of you who are men
1:05:47
of God here with all due respect, can I tell
1:05:50
you I don't mean to insult you. Please stop making
1:05:54
a mess of your ministry and go unlock yourself.
1:05:57
Speaker 3: And get genuine power.
1:06:00
Speaker 2: If power does not land in your life, I assure
1:06:03
you one day you will commit.
1:06:04
Speaker 3: Suicide out of frustration.
1:06:07
Speaker 2: Power is what brands the believers impact power. Men will
1:06:13
not come to you for solutions just because of tribal sentiments.
1:06:18
Where the tacasis are there, the eagles will gather. I
1:06:25
sense in my spirit that upon someone right now there
1:06:29
is power that is falling. Honestly, not everyone, but I
1:06:34
just sense in my spirit someone needs the Holy Ghost power.
1:06:39
Send you in power, a postonic power that will land
1:06:43
upon your head and land upon your destiny. And I
1:06:47
stretch my hands. Maybe not for everybody. I don't know
1:06:50
where that man of God is. I don't know where
1:06:53
that business person is. But in the name of Jesus,
1:06:56
I stand in partnership with the grace that is upon
1:06:59
this house. Marcys coach Lacata. Let power fall upon you,
1:07:05
Let power fall upon you, Let power from on high,
1:07:10
Let it fall upon you. Let the power of the
1:07:13
Holy Ghost fall upon you. Bring Lord, prey, breath, Lord, pray,
1:07:26
pray upon my life breed Lord, pre preth load prey,
1:07:37
prey upon my life. Allelujah, please listen to me. When
1:07:48
I had an encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ, among
1:07:52
the many things that I received was genuine power from Heaven.
1:07:59
I know what power I can do. We are still
1:08:02
students in the school of power. But I tell you sincerely,
1:08:06
I have seen what power can do. It can rewrite
1:08:10
the narratives in a man's life in one day. I'm
1:08:13
talking of genuine power, not stage manage power, not a
1:08:18
form of power. It took power for the prophet to
1:08:24
say by this time tomorrow, Halee Charlikapra, by this time.
1:08:32
How does a man look at another man and said,
1:08:35
by this time tomorrow, Ghana. You are in a season
1:08:42
right now where the ministry of power is needed like
1:08:47
never before. Man of God, it will take power to
1:08:52
rewrite the destinies of the people God is sending to you. Listen.
1:08:59
That are your men and women who are ministry right now.
1:09:02
Some of you are here and God is already helping you.
1:09:05
Can I tell you, my friend, hide yourself behind, hold
1:09:09
onto the horns of the altar until genuine power lands
1:09:13
on your head. I hope you think you don't think
1:09:21
I'm wasting your time. Honestly speaking, if the power of
1:09:25
God does not land on your life, let me talk
1:09:27
to you my precious waship people. In addition to the
1:09:30
songs that you have, stay with God and say, play
1:09:34
something on my head that when I raise my voice
1:09:37
is not just mellow, these men will hear. Allelujah. If
1:09:56
you are in the fivefold ministry, here, please I beseech
1:10:00
you by God, do not miss to Night's session.
1:10:04
Speaker 3: Do not miss to Night's session.
1:10:06
Speaker 2: When God gives gifts to men, it is because it
1:10:10
desires that everyone walks into that experience. Allelujah. I know
1:10:20
what the power of God can do. Can I tell
1:10:23
you in one day? Honestly, when genuine power arrives in
1:10:28
one day, the power of God can bring help us
1:10:32
to your life that you will ever need all through
1:10:35
do a life in ministry. I know what I'm saying.
1:10:40
Our world today has not yet built technology to ignore power.
1:10:45
We have not yet gone advancing life. No, there is
1:10:50
no body that sustains the ability to.
1:10:52
Speaker 3: Ignore genuine power.
1:10:54
Speaker 2: No. No, When Pharaoh sow power, he said, what is
1:10:59
this one? Janas Jambers come and when the serpent of
1:11:05
Moses swallowed up the serpent of Pharaoh, and he took
1:11:09
it back. Ah, Pharaoh said, this is serious, as stubborn
1:11:14
as Pharaoh was. When power came, he bowed the triumph
1:11:22
of power over the forces of darkness in Israel. It
1:11:26
was so profound that Mary sang Miriam. She said, I
1:11:30
will sing onto the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously.
1:11:35
He says, the horses evil with his rider had been
1:11:38
thrown into the sea. My prayer for the Church of
1:11:44
the Lord Jesus Christ is that God would restore the
1:11:48
power that we always keep talking.
1:11:50
Speaker 3: About in books.
1:11:51
Speaker 2: Every time we talk about people like Smith, Wiggle's Ward
1:11:56
and all these they were not angels, they were men.
1:12:01
Speaker 3: But let me tell you the truth. Power comes with
1:12:03
a prize.
1:12:06
Speaker 2: Now, this is the part of the salmon that the
1:12:08
church does not want to hear. Power comes with a prize,
1:12:13
and upfront, without wasting your time, let me tell you
1:12:16
what the price for power is.
1:12:18
Speaker 3: All of you. All of you is the.
1:12:22
Speaker 2: Price for genuine power, beyond your money, beyond your prayer,
1:12:28
beyond your sacrifice, until all of you goes as a sacrifice.
1:12:34
Forget about power.
1:12:42
Speaker 3: Now, hear me. I'm not yet to glorify the devil.
1:12:46
Speaker 2: But you go and ask people who have gotten occultic power,
1:12:49
you will not believe the sacrifices that they made. It
1:12:53
was beyond bringing an animal or a goat or whatever
1:12:56
it is. They lie down in graves, they eat all
1:13:01
kinds of things, They go to levels of consecration that
1:13:05
you cannot imagine to get mundane a simplitude of power
1:13:10
that with one declaration it can leave them. Believers admire power,
1:13:18
but they do not respect power, because if believers have
1:13:24
respect for power, they will also respect the sacrifices.
1:13:28
Speaker 3: That bring power.
1:13:29
Speaker 2: Can I tell you, when you see genuine power, respect
1:13:35
it because it's a testament of sacrifice in the spirit Allelujah.
1:13:54
I've had the honor of studying revivals. I've had the
1:13:59
honor of meet in a few people in their lifetime
1:14:02
who spareheaded revivals across the nations of the earth. And
1:14:07
every time I've had the honor of meeting any of
1:14:10
these people, the question I always asked them is what
1:14:14
was the secret of the hand of God upon your
1:14:16
life or upon the person you worked with. I remember
1:14:20
traveling to a particular nation and I met one of
1:14:23
the fathers of faith and he told me he was
1:14:25
the one who used to interpret for tl Osbond and
1:14:29
Maurice Rulo Once upon a time they slept on the
1:14:32
same bed. And I said, sir, please let me ask
1:14:34
you a question. What did they do? How did they pray?
1:14:39
What was their consecration? Like?
1:14:41
Speaker 3: Don't show me the videos of the miracles?
1:14:44
Speaker 2: No, I want to know what was the price that
1:14:47
was paid with God that made God to trust them
1:14:51
with such levels of grace. There are many of you
1:14:55
who are here. I'm sure that most of you are
1:14:58
not even interested in asking God's servant or asking the
1:15:03
people around you. Most people want impartition. They're not interested
1:15:08
in knowing the price is the reason why they fall
1:15:10
down and stand up and nothing happens.
1:15:12
Speaker 3: There is a real price for power. Power is not cheap.
1:15:19
Speaker 2: I tell you, it doesn't matter who gives you, whether
1:15:21
the devil or God.
1:15:22
Speaker 3: Power in any case is not cheap.
1:15:29
Speaker 2: Do you know what it took Jesus to be exalted
1:15:31
as Lord and savior his life, that name that was
1:15:36
given to him, the prize for that name, the Bible says,
1:15:41
because he gave himself to die, even the death on
1:15:44
the cross. Wherefore, on account of this on account of
1:15:48
the aforemention God had so highly exalted him and given
1:15:53
him an office, and that that office was above every
1:15:57
other office. That when you involk the powers behind that office,
1:16:02
every knee bows of things in heaven, things in the earth,
1:16:07
and things under the earth. And that every tongue must
1:16:10
confess to the lordship of Jesus. Allelujah. I remember one
1:16:20
time when the Lord Jesus Christ appeared to me. I
1:16:24
was like a dead man on the ground, and he
1:16:27
stretches right hand. You know I say this, I'm speaking
1:16:32
to the globe. So I'm very careful to say this.
1:16:35
People talk about having encounters with Jesus today, and it's
1:16:39
not for me to judge anyman's encounter.
1:16:41
Speaker 3: What can I tell you, by the.
1:16:43
Speaker 2: Authority of Scripture, most of the Jesus people are meeting,
1:16:47
it's not the Jesus of the Bible. When you meet
1:16:50
the Jesus of the Bible, you will never be normal again.
1:16:56
Go and read your Bible away together. When Saul met Jesus,
1:17:04
it's not whether he wanted to change or not.
1:17:08
Speaker 3: The encounter.
1:17:09
Speaker 2: The impact of that encounter changed his life forever. When
1:17:14
the Lord Jesus appeared to me, I was like a
1:17:17
dead man. How he came into my room. I not
1:17:20
no use of dog, no use of matter, had no
1:17:23
power over him. Here was a young man lying down
1:17:28
on the ground, and he looked at me. His mouth
1:17:32
was not moving, but I was hearing what he was saying,
1:17:36
a spirit communication beyond the realm of words. And then
1:17:42
he stretched his right hand towards me, Brothers and sisters.
1:17:47
Light that left his Majesty and entered me. How a
1:17:52
human being survives that light? It is like taking the
1:17:55
light from the sun and putting it inside an hand.
1:17:59
How I did not die, It's a question I will
1:18:02
ask him when we see his face. Hallelujah. And then
1:18:09
when that happened, it took me more than one year
1:18:14
to be back to myself. I was not normally again,
1:18:17
I'm telling you I didn't leave like a normal human being. Again,
1:18:21
My priority is shifted, my appetized shifted. He was as
1:18:26
if he was someone who had some kind of thing
1:18:28
wrong with him.
1:18:29
Speaker 3: That is the impact of an encounter with his Majesty.
1:18:34
Speaker 2: But from that experience, when I opened my Bible, it
1:18:40
was like something happened to me, like somebody puts something
1:18:44
inside me.
1:18:47
Speaker 3: What is the meaning of this. Take it high for me.
1:18:55
Speaker 2: Let your pover holy goos Pa stun me, rest on me.
1:19:04
Let's your palm, holy Ego's palm. Rest on me, rest
1:19:12
on me. Let your speed, spirit of wisdom, rest on me,
1:19:21
rest on me.
1:19:23
Speaker 5: Oh, rest on me, Oh, rest on me. Oh, rest
1:19:36
on me, Spirit of palm, rest on me.
1:19:42
Speaker 2: My catch up to three and verse eight. It says,
1:19:45
but surely I am full of power by the spirit
1:19:52
of the Lord, full of power, man of God, full
1:19:56
of power, business man full of power. And then you
1:20:01
will see yourself manifesting dimensions that no force in Ghana.
1:20:05
It doesn't matter how long it was there. You will
1:20:08
scar tight and give way, as if the devil does
1:20:11
not exist. Preacher, pay the price. Let the power of
1:20:17
the holygoes rest upon you, and you will see that
1:20:19
there is no limit to your horising. Do you believe
1:20:23
what I'm telling you? The power of the spirit. Tell
1:20:28
Usborne went to India and he went to preach. When
1:20:32
he was done preaching powerless preaching, he made an alther
1:20:37
call and nobody came. They almost chased him out of
1:20:40
that place, and he was angry in the spirit, and
1:20:44
he said he went back and said, God, what is
1:20:47
the meaning of this? And God told him your message
1:20:50
is correct, but it was not backed up with power.
1:20:54
And the Bible says he I mean, history tells us
1:20:57
that he paid the price and went genuine power landed
1:21:01
on his head.
1:21:01
Speaker 3: He went back to India again and when.
1:21:04
Speaker 2: He was preaching, people were looking at him, and he said,
1:21:08
where is the blind come? Where is this come? He
1:21:11
called certain people and miracles began to erupt there and
1:21:15
the people started to shout. One salmon that power preaches
1:21:20
is creater than a thousand words. I hope you know
1:21:25
that the power of God is also an evangelist. And
1:21:28
there is a salmon it can't preach. There is an
1:21:31
audience that only he has the salmon of power. I
1:21:38
vowed before God, as a man of God, that I
1:21:42
will never travel to any London, any nation, just to
1:21:46
go and deliver a nice lecture and return back. Is
1:21:50
my covenant with God, that I will never step my
1:21:53
feet upon a nation. And then at the end of it,
1:21:56
they just said, Wow, this nice preacher came return back
1:21:59
in peace.
1:21:59
Speaker 3: God bless you know.
1:22:01
Speaker 2: Our assignment is to shift climates that when you step
1:22:04
into territories. Elijah was a man of life passion. Elijah
1:22:13
did not announce in a radio station that rain will
1:22:16
not come from one position. It said there shall be
1:22:20
no rain over a space of three and a half years.
1:22:24
That when you are full of power, when you land
1:22:27
in a territory, the territorial forces acknowledge. Ah, Jesus, I
1:22:33
know power. I know. Joshua Salmon, I know you can
1:22:36
add your name to the least in the name of Jesus,
1:22:39
the Son of the Living God.
1:22:45
Speaker 3: Please sit down.
1:22:47
Speaker 2: Let me give you one more and then we're done. Wisdom, wisdom,
1:22:55
power by the spirit. Please two people now that will
1:23:01
start running so they don't enjoy themselves. Whether you're an
1:23:04
ash or just hold them and you can bring them
1:23:06
and keep them. I just got this in a vision.
1:23:08
The power of God is coming on two people and
1:23:10
they will start running. Literally, please hold them so they
1:23:14
don't enjoy themselves. Let's your power, power to prosper. Rest
1:23:29
on me, rest on me. Let's your power, power to prosper.
1:23:38
Rest on me, rest on me.
1:23:43
Speaker 5: Oh, rest on me, Oh rest on me, Oh.
1:23:54
Speaker 2: Rest on me. The power to prosper, rest on me.
1:24:01
Let me give you the last manifestation of glory. Jeremiah nine,
1:24:06
twenty four twenty three. Now we're dealing with twenty three.
1:24:12
Let not the wise man glory in wisdom, So men
1:24:17
glory in wisdom. Let not the strong or mighty man
1:24:22
glory in might, so there is glory in might. And
1:24:28
then number three, let not the rich man glory in riches.
1:24:34
The third expression of the glory of God in the
1:24:37
life of a.
1:24:37
Speaker 3: Man is wealth.
1:24:42
Speaker 2: I hope you believe that God prospers men. Let me
1:24:46
settle that first, so that i'd alwayte my time. Do
1:24:48
you believe it? Do not allow anybody, no matter how
1:24:55
well intentioned, preach you into believing that being financially prosperous.
1:25:01
Speaker 3: It's not the will of God. What God hates.
1:25:03
Speaker 2: His canality and an exaltation of material resources above and
1:25:08
beyond your relationship with God. And you don't need to
1:25:13
have money to be in that state. There are many
1:25:16
poor people who are materialistic. It's just that it's not
1:25:19
yet being manifested because the resources to do it is
1:25:21
not there. Are we together now, Please year me, ladies
1:25:26
and gentlemen. When I teach on the power to prosper
1:25:32
and I teach on wealth and riches, it's not from
1:25:36
a canal standpoint, just a desire to have money to
1:25:39
make it. We're too selous with God for that kind
1:25:42
of mundane business. But the whole counsel of God must
1:25:47
be taught his body if you must arise and become
1:25:50
a living manifestation of the glory of God. Our world
1:25:55
today is economically driven, and one of the way is
1:25:59
men be become slaves is by becoming borrowers and becoming.
1:26:04
Speaker 3: Under the grip of financial issues.
1:26:08
Speaker 2: Are we together now, Proverbs Chapter twenty two, Please give
1:26:13
it to us. I think verse two Proverbs twenty two
1:26:17
the rich and the poor they meet together? Where on
1:26:22
it the Bible says, the Lord is the maker of
1:26:25
them all. What kind of a statement is this? The
1:26:28
Bible have just a.
1:26:29
Speaker 3: Man meet together?
1:26:31
Speaker 2: What kind of a description is this? Why does the
1:26:34
Bible go so far to separate them to say the
1:26:37
rich and the poor meet together? Then it strangely says
1:26:41
the Lord is the maker of them all. The Bible
1:26:44
never says the Lord made them, so he says the
1:26:47
Lord made them all. They transited themselves, some to become rich,
1:26:52
some to become poor.
1:26:53
Speaker 3: God made men.
1:26:56
Speaker 2: Some of the men decided to be prosper and others
1:27:01
decided not to be. Are we together, whether you are
1:27:06
Abraham or Lazarus. Is God that made all of them,
1:27:10
but their realities were different. The Bible says, God is
1:27:15
the maker of them all, not the maker of them.
1:27:18
So go to verse seven, very very interesting scripture. Then
1:27:22
he says, the rich among all the ones that God made,
1:27:27
this is what makes leaders, and this is what makes slaves.
1:27:31
The rich rule let over the poor. And he says
1:27:35
the borrower will remain servant to the lender.
1:27:40
Speaker 3: So one of the ways to become a servant is.
1:27:43
Speaker 2: To be a borrower. Africa, are you hearing me? A
1:27:52
servant as a borrower? The subject of the blessing of
1:27:57
the Lord, the subject of financial process, verity, the subject
1:28:01
of wealth and abundance has been faced within the body
1:28:04
of Christ with many reactions. For others, sincere and well intentioned,
1:28:11
they have frowned so sadly at the subject of.
1:28:15
Speaker 3: Wealth and abundance.
1:28:16
Speaker 2: There are people and circles within the Body of Christ
1:28:19
that do not even want to hear the world rich
1:28:21
or wealthy or abundant. And for some I understand what
1:28:25
they're trying to say. Because of the various abuses and
1:28:29
the magnification of wealth above God. And that is correct.
1:28:35
But then on the other side we have people who
1:28:37
have exalted money, and like the statue of nebukat Nezza,
1:28:41
they have built a monument behind their pulpit that is
1:28:45
all about money, money, money. Both approaches to the subject
1:28:50
of wealth are wrong, are we together? The Bible lets
1:28:56
us know listen carefully that the whole idea of wealth
1:29:02
was not man's invention. It was not Satan's invention. It
1:29:06
was God by himself. And the reason is because most
1:29:10
people do not understand the purpose of wealth. And doctor
1:29:14
Miles of Late says, when the purpose of a thing
1:29:17
is not known, he says, abuse of it is inevitable.
1:29:21
Most people do not understand the purpose of wealth, and
1:29:25
this is the reason why for others it has become
1:29:28
their unbecoming. There is such a description in the Bible
1:29:33
as a rich fool. What makes the man foolish is
1:29:37
not money. What makes the man foolish is money without purpose.
1:29:42
Placing his soul and his trust, he built bigger bands
1:29:45
and said, my.
1:29:46
Speaker 3: Soul find rest.
1:29:50
Speaker 2: I have learned as a man of God that one
1:29:52
of the greatest ways to remain a person of integrity
1:29:56
is to be blessed financially. If you are not blessed
1:29:59
f actually, eventually the realities of your work or ministry
1:30:05
will catch up with you and you are closer to
1:30:08
the corridors of compromise.
1:30:10
Speaker 3: If you are not financially blessed.
1:30:12
Speaker 2: It is the truth. Are we together? If I've landed
1:30:19
in this wonderful church and I'm hungry and God gives
1:30:24
me the ability to see your account number, what do
1:30:27
you think I'm going to do? Come on, talk to me,
1:30:30
intelligent people. If I'm hungry and I can see your
1:30:34
account number and I see there that there is a
1:30:37
million dollars, chances are excellent I will say what God
1:30:40
did not say.
1:30:41
Speaker 3: I will abuse the.
1:30:42
Speaker 2: Gift of prophecy because of hunger. Integrity has a maintenance system.
1:30:48
Speaker 3: One of it is wealth.
1:30:50
Speaker 2: The presence of wealth helps you to maintain integrity. Allelujah.
1:30:59
There are three reasons, according to scripture, why God prospers believers.
1:31:03
Number one, so that they can live a comfortable life.
1:31:07
Speaker 3: God is not.
1:31:08
Speaker 2: Against men living a life of dignity, decency, and comfort
1:31:13
whilst we serve him. Number two, the second reason why
1:31:17
God blesses believers in the kingdom is so that we
1:31:21
can together provide financial resources for kingdom advance. This is
1:31:26
a major reason. Listen, let me tell you the truth.
1:31:29
There is only so much you can do with money
1:31:32
as a person wealthy people, and this has been statistically
1:31:37
proven that there is an amount of money that you
1:31:41
get after which it cannot change you again.
1:31:46
Speaker 3: Allelujah.
1:31:47
Speaker 2: Yes, there is an amount of money where all your
1:31:50
needs are met and all your financial fears are gone.
1:31:53
Speaker 3: Money will stop blessing you from that point.
1:31:56
Speaker 2: The only other reason why you need more is because
1:31:59
of the kingdom. Now, unbelievers have this orientation with all
1:32:03
due respect, especially the Islamic world. They know this. It's
1:32:07
an orientation that the children received from death is part
1:32:11
of the orientation that financial resources are provided so that
1:32:17
the program of God will happen on hind that will
1:32:21
advance without hindrance. You may have heard me say that
1:32:26
the name of Jesus is very heavy. It takes financial
1:32:29
resources to lift it high for the nations to see
1:32:33
when Jesus was about to resurrect. When he resurrected, the
1:32:37
Bible says that a group of people took the report
1:32:39
and said, we saw it. We saw the tomb. The
1:32:42
stone rolled away, and the Bible said they were giving
1:32:45
a large sum of money. That large sum of money,
1:32:51
They said, keep quiet, go and say.
1:32:54
Speaker 3: That they came and took him.
1:32:56
Speaker 2: And if there is anything, we have the influence to
1:32:58
sort it out till today's set and is still paying
1:33:01
men to say.
1:33:02
Speaker 3: Jesus is not Lord? Are we together?
1:33:08
Speaker 2: I made up my mind, as a man of God
1:33:10
and as a leader, that I will never raise a
1:33:13
people who will only be spiritually vibrant. Their spiritual vibrancy
1:33:19
is my priority. But in addition to their spiritual vibrancy,
1:33:23
I must raise the people who are people of influence,
1:33:27
people of power, and people of resources. Yes, sir, unapologetically
1:33:34
so allelujah. Genesis seventeen and verse six. The Bible says,
1:33:40
and I will make you exceeding fruitful, and I will
1:33:44
make nations of THEE, and kings shall come out of THEE.
1:33:49
One of my consecrations with God in ministry is that
1:33:53
I will never do ministry for money, and I will
1:33:56
never manipulate anybody for material gain. But to defend that consecration,
1:34:02
you must be comfortable.
1:34:04
Speaker 3: And your house must be in peace.
1:34:08
Speaker 2: I will never lead the people who are shouting Amen
1:34:11
and cannot pay the fees of their children who are
1:34:14
shouting Amen, and their lives are going down, and they're
1:34:18
dying of high blood pressure, dying of and especially if
1:34:22
they're bringing seeds to you, the man of God, to
1:34:24
say I bless you, I consider it fraud. If people
1:34:29
are sowing into my life and blessing me and I
1:34:32
don't teach them the way to rise. It's true. Are
1:34:40
we together? The reason why many wealthy people around nations
1:34:46
and in church are so arrogantics because there are only
1:34:49
few of them, and because they are so needed, they
1:34:53
are almost worshiped. By the time there are so many
1:34:57
wealthy people, everybody would know it's a privilege to to God.
1:35:01
But by the time there are just two or three,
1:35:05
you will be forced to bow down and say oh,
1:35:07
and then they call the shots. No way. The body
1:35:13
of Jesus is hanging on a tree, ladies and gentlemen,
1:35:16
And he took a well de man called Joseph of
1:35:18
Arimathea to use his.
1:35:19
Speaker 3: Wealth and influence.
1:35:21
Speaker 2: That virgin told that Jesus was laid in wherein the
1:35:25
statement all death, where is your stinger, no grave?
1:35:28
Speaker 3: Where is your victory? It was a well.
1:35:30
Speaker 2: Deman's donation that led to the validity of that statement.
1:35:35
Speaker 3: Wealth played a role in the resurrection.
1:35:37
Speaker 2: Don't ignore it, Andelujah. This year, God granted us the
1:35:47
privilege and gave us.
1:35:48
Speaker 3: An instruction to go and hold a Sound.
1:35:52
Speaker 2: Of Revival conference in the United Kingdom. And I say
1:35:57
this to the glory of God, not with any sense
1:35:59
of pride. I'm just saying it to encourage someone as
1:36:03
speak over your life. And God told me something, and
1:36:07
now there's nothing wrong with giving. God told me there
1:36:10
was a narrative that the Church in Europe has had
1:36:13
about all the you know, the citizens in Europe. Europe
1:36:17
has a negative mentality about church, as if all they
1:36:20
do is to come and collect money and manipulate people.
1:36:23
And the Lord said, for that conference, I will honor you,
1:36:27
but do not make one single collection, no talk of
1:36:31
money for all the days. Now, how do you raise
1:36:36
a budget? I don't. I mean you are intelligent people.
1:36:39
You use your mind and imagine what it takes. The
1:36:42
largest indoor theater in the entire United Kingdom, pathful with
1:36:47
people over two thousand plus workers, and to feed them
1:36:53
and then come and preach and leave Allelujah. Lack of
1:37:06
finances has made many preachers angry. When they stand on stage.
1:37:11
You are wondering where the anger of this preacher is
1:37:13
coming from. What did we do wrong? There are all
1:37:17
kinds of bills. While he's preaching, the creditors are texting
1:37:21
and said, listen, we're watching you two finish and common
1:37:25
meet us. Come on, now, that does not sound like
1:37:28
the God that we serve. There are some of you
1:37:34
here right now. You probably are men of God in ministry,
1:37:37
and you are almost at the verge of beginning to
1:37:40
tell lies in prophecy, or to go and collect some
1:37:44
power somewhere, because you have been told that you must
1:37:48
make ends meet. And we should not shie away from
1:37:51
this in church. Shining away from the teaching about wealth
1:37:54
and prosperities not how it works. It is teaching it right,
1:37:58
correcting the excesses. By the time everything becomes about money, money, money,
1:38:06
at the detriment of the cross, at the detriment of transformation,
1:38:10
at the detriment of integrity. Now there is a problem.
1:38:15
But within the limit of righteousness, within the limit of
1:38:20
truth and integrity, the whole counsel of God that includes
1:38:25
his desire and his ability to bless and live.
1:38:28
Speaker 3: The sains must be taught. Are we together?
1:38:34
Speaker 2: I have had the honor of praying and crying with
1:38:38
many preachers, especially across the African soil, and they would
1:38:42
come and say, apostle this finance thing. This is the
1:38:45
only thing tying my ministry down. How many books are
1:38:49
locked up in the spirit of many people now that
1:38:52
we need. These books are ladders to revival. How many
1:38:58
of you have songs today that the nations need to hear.
1:39:01
These are the songs who are supposed to be praying
1:39:03
with in the morning, but we cannot hear them because
1:39:06
you are incapacitated the ability to do it thorough work
1:39:09
in the studio. The song is there, it has come
1:39:13
from heaven, but the means to make it rich us
1:39:16
is not there. How many people have been given certain
1:39:22
insights by the spirit that can be captured in books
1:39:27
and can mentor the generation rising so that they do
1:39:30
not work in error, but they are limited financially. Hear me,
1:39:34
ladies and gentlemen. Every time you see Israel going to Egypt,
1:39:39
there is one major reason hunger. Genesis forty two, one
1:39:43
and two were about to wrap up now when Jacob
1:39:48
saw that there was cane in Egypt. Jacob said onto
1:39:52
his sons, why do you look upon one another? He said, behold,
1:39:58
I have heard that is cone in Egypt. I have
1:40:02
heard that there is corne. The problem is the location.
1:40:05
It's not in a place God's people should go. But
1:40:08
that is the only place where there is corn. And
1:40:11
Jacob himself, as a prophet, is said, get down teether
1:40:15
and buy for us from thence that we may leave
1:40:19
and not die. That's how the nation of Israel went
1:40:22
to Egypt until they became slaves. Every time Satan seiz
1:40:29
God's people worshiping. Some of you are in this place
1:40:33
right now, and even though you are looking at me,
1:40:35
the truth is you are not listening to me. There
1:40:38
is another voice you are hearing. Is the voice of pain?
1:40:41
Is the voice of luck? Yes, today's holiday, but how
1:40:47
about next Monday. My children need to go to school.
1:40:52
This is what has corrupted politicians within the African soil.
1:40:56
This is what has corrupted men of God within the
1:40:58
African soil. This is what has corrupted civil servants within
1:41:02
the African soil. This is what has corrupted business men
1:41:05
within the African soil. Integrity is something that is so
1:41:09
fast within the African soil today, and it is because
1:41:13
of lack of resources. There are preachers to they who
1:41:19
want to be righteous, They want to stand in truth.
1:41:22
Speaker 3: But how about their wives? How about their children?
1:41:27
Speaker 2: When a man of God's wife looks at him and says, honey,
1:41:30
I don't know whether God called you or not again,
1:41:33
because this economic situation, you need to go back and
1:41:37
ask God. You will see the man walking around in
1:41:40
the night. You would think he's praying. He's not praying.
1:41:42
Look at people getting depressed, including preachers. Depressed. They can
1:41:49
preach powerfully, but when they get back home, the man
1:41:52
is imagiating, and you're wondering, what is wrong God? How
1:41:55
will I come out of this? You called me? Is
1:41:58
it a cost that I answered the call? To the
1:42:00
point right now that if you tell a young lady
1:42:03
I want to marry a preacher, a father will look
1:42:06
at you and so and tell the daughter. So this
1:42:10
is how you want to reward me for raising you up?
1:42:15
Because it's almost as if it is a call to death,
1:42:18
as if it's Matyadom. May generation rights that will rerise
1:42:24
that narrative away.
1:42:29
Speaker 3: Together. I look forward to men who will rise from action.
1:42:33
Speaker 2: Chapel from Ghana who listen You're assignment. Because of the
1:42:36
blessing of the Lord. You will write a list of
1:42:39
ministries one million dollars to this one, five hundred thousand,
1:42:43
to this one three hundred. I hear that term. I
1:42:48
hear that there is a crusade about to happen in Kumasi.
1:42:52
But I hear that instead of praying for souls, the
1:42:54
people are praying for money. Heyes, stop that prayer, focus
1:42:58
on souls, and you write it. I'm not just entertaining you.
1:43:02
In the name of Jesus, May God find a worthy vessel,
1:43:06
a real financial apostle that arise from here, Alleluyah. I
1:43:15
prayed that prayer even for myself. I said, Lord, please
1:43:18
get me to a point where I would be so
1:43:20
empowered with the dignity of kingdom integrity that you will
1:43:24
be able to raise other people. You will see a
1:43:27
young man with such gift of God in his life
1:43:30
about to start ministry and in pain, and you will say,
1:43:33
I pay the rent for where you are using for
1:43:36
the next three years to ease that body. Now you
1:43:39
focus on prayer and doing ministry with integrity. Are we together?
1:43:45
There are many of you who I am in business.
1:43:47
Here at the end of this I'm about to speak
1:43:49
over you. It's important to understand so that we don't
1:43:52
just say amen. God is counting on the church in Ghana,
1:43:57
the church in Nigeria, the church in America. It is
1:44:01
expensive to win the lost. Lack of finances will make
1:44:07
good people become dubious because they have to make ends meet.
1:44:13
Some of you right now you are oweing corporately, you
1:44:16
are owing personally. And if God does not show you
1:44:20
messy when COVID struck, do you know that there are
1:44:23
many men of God who died of depression after COVID. Yes,
1:44:29
because now there was lockdown for over three months, no
1:44:33
offerings coming, no nothing coming. And then when COVID was done,
1:44:38
many people backslidd a kilometers away from the cross and
1:44:44
now the labor to bring them. There were people who
1:44:47
literally packed up. They closed the door by themselves and said,
1:44:50
I'm tired of ministry. I'd rather go back and sit down.
1:44:54
I vow that it is not in my lifetime that
1:44:57
a man of God will leave the work of the
1:44:59
kingdom because of economic reasons. And don't just be quick
1:45:04
to George and said.
1:45:05
Speaker 3: Did he have to do that?
1:45:07
Speaker 2: By the time your children do not eat, by the
1:45:10
time your wife, your family, things are happening. And then
1:45:14
when sickness now strikes and they tell you they need
1:45:19
ten thousand dollars to fly this man of God's wife
1:45:23
say to America to treat her, and the man does
1:45:25
not have the money.
1:45:26
Speaker 3: How do you stand on stage and say God.
1:45:28
Speaker 2: Is faithful or received? You think the members are stupid?
1:45:32
Will they say amen? When it could not be demonstrated
1:45:35
in your own life. It takes wealth to finance God's program.
1:45:51
I don't know how much it may have course to
1:45:53
put this together, but any intelligent person can only imagine.
1:45:58
I'm involved in a lot of conference, a lot of
1:46:01
who says there are many more were planning for next year.
1:46:04
I know what it takes to run one service in
1:46:07
our ministry with all humility. It is what many people
1:46:11
may use for conferences. One service, and you have to
1:46:15
remain a person of integrity one service. You cannot do
1:46:20
ministry running tens of thousands of people if you do
1:46:24
not have financial resources. There is a mother now who
1:46:30
is watching me and crying. There is a preacher who
1:46:33
is not here but is watching online and say, apostle,
1:46:36
you are speaking about me.
1:46:38
Speaker 3: I'm about to give up in.
1:46:39
Speaker 2: Ministry because I've done everything I know to do. Now
1:46:43
someone has told me, come, let's go somewhere. There is
1:46:46
one man who can rob something in your eyes. Then
1:46:49
your eyes will now open and you begin to see,
1:46:52
and you can become a millonnaire in one year. That
1:46:55
person is about to take that decision. But here may
1:46:58
the God of Heaven still prospers. God of Heaven still prospers.
1:47:05
My life is a testimony that God is still called Ebeniza.
1:47:10
Speaker 3: He is the helper of men.
1:47:13
Speaker 2: One of my consecrations in ministry is that I will
1:47:17
never manipulate people for financial gain. Never. I'd rather be
1:47:24
called a failure in ministry than to go back home
1:47:27
lying on my bed knowing I deceived God people, God's people,
1:47:31
either by not teaching them or teaching them lies, or
1:47:35
manipulating them for my gain. I fear God too much
1:47:40
and I serve him too much. I have met him.
1:47:44
There are certain encounters when you've had with God. There
1:47:47
are certain things that die immediately. But please hear me.
1:47:51
I want to speak to a businessman. I'm wrapping up.
1:47:54
Listen to me. There are three levels of wealth and
1:47:59
by the grace of God and with every sense of humility.
1:48:02
The man you see is not only a preacher. I'm
1:48:07
not financially illiterate. I know something a bit about money,
1:48:11
and I want you to please listen. God gave us
1:48:14
a coat of many colors. You have only seen one
1:48:18
color what there are many other colors. What Jacob gave
1:48:23
Joseph is what God gives some of us. Why he
1:48:28
did that, I do not know what He gave us
1:48:31
the honor of wearing a coat of many colors, and
1:48:35
one of those colors is how to prosper. I know
1:48:39
what people do to prosper. Please listen to me. By
1:48:47
the grace of God. I have met billoonnaires in dollars
1:48:51
multi millonnaires, both in the world and in the church.
1:48:56
Speaker 3: I've had the honor of gleaning.
1:48:58
Speaker 2: From the minds of very intelligent, sincere people trying to
1:49:04
unravel the secret behind this cancer that is plaguing the
1:49:09
body of Christ. And I've come to a safe conclusion
1:49:14
that at a very elementary level, I'm going to say
1:49:18
two things that please I don't want you to forget.
1:49:22
The first thing I want to say about wealth that
1:49:24
I want you to remember is there are two dimensions
1:49:29
to prospering in the kingdom. Number one is the Abrahamic dimension.
1:49:37
Number two is the Lot dimension. Please listen. When God
1:49:44
calls Abraham, he calls Abraham not for his sake alone.
1:49:49
He calls Abraham for the sake of everybody who will
1:49:52
be connected to him. The covenants with Abraham. But the
1:49:57
blessings must go beyond Abraham. So the Bible says, God
1:50:02
calls Abraham Genesis twelve one two, one three. He ends
1:50:06
his proposition to Abraham by saying, in thee shall all
1:50:10
the families of the earth be blessed verse three. Then
1:50:14
Abraham set out to leave, and the Bible makes a
1:50:17
very interesting statement, I think in verse four or five.
1:50:20
Speaker 3: He says, and Lot went with him.
1:50:24
Speaker 2: Listen carefully, and Lot went with him.
1:50:29
Speaker 3: God did not call Lot. Lot was not part of it.
1:50:34
Speaker 2: But Lord had that there was a man the hand
1:50:36
of God was upon, and he said, I will follow
1:50:40
give us Genesis thirteen from verse one thirteen, And Abraham
1:50:47
went up out of Egypt, and he and his wife
1:50:51
and all that they had, and Lot also went with him.
1:50:54
Speaker 3: Lot is still following verse two.
1:50:58
Speaker 2: And Abraham was very in cattle, silver and gold. US
1:51:04
three the Bible says, and he went on his journeys
1:51:08
from the south, even to Bethel, to a place where
1:51:11
his tent had been at the beginning between Bethel and
1:51:13
ai uh Huh, onto the place of the altar.
1:51:17
Speaker 3: Verse five.
1:51:18
Speaker 2: The Bible says, a Lot also look at how the
1:51:22
Bible describes it, which went with Abraham had flocks and
1:51:28
hurts and tends.
1:51:31
Speaker 3: What did Lot do?
1:51:32
Speaker 2: Nothing?
1:51:33
Speaker 3: He simply followed a man that God plays something on.
1:51:39
So listen.
1:51:40
Speaker 2: When it has to do with being wealthy in life
1:51:43
and destiny.
1:51:44
Speaker 3: I hate to be a bearer of bad news, but
1:51:46
I need to tell you this.
1:51:47
Speaker 2: Not everybody will be Abraham. You can look onto Abraham,
1:51:54
but you may not have the privilege to be the
1:51:56
one to pioneer the business. You may not have the
1:52:00
privilege to be the one to pioneer the ministry. The
1:52:04
moment you find out you are not Abraham, be Lot.
1:52:09
At least the initial stages of Lot. Lot for God
1:52:14
that the reason why he was blessed was not because
1:52:17
of his personal transformation and creativity. He was simply enjoying
1:52:21
the grace of a man that God has spoken to.
1:52:24
When Lot separated from Abraham, everything Lot had he is
1:52:30
separated together with what he had, and lot went down
1:52:36
until he found himself in Sodom. Most believers want to
1:52:42
be Abraham by themselves. So everybody is waiting to be
1:52:47
the one to receive the business idea. Everyone is waiting
1:52:50
to be the one to head the conglomerate. It will
1:52:53
not always happen that way. In the world of business.
1:52:58
There are Abrahams and there are lots. The most important
1:53:02
thing is that both of them ended up prospering. You
1:53:05
would not even know who God spoke to and who followed,
1:53:10
because they all had so much that their men began
1:53:14
to argue for space. There are people today who have
1:53:20
been given the unique privilege to start up businesses, to
1:53:24
start up great conglomerates. There are others who do not
1:53:27
have the pioneering spirit, but they have the grace to
1:53:31
support and make things work and so that you will
1:53:34
be comfortable and not think until I pioneer, it means
1:53:39
God is not with me.
1:53:40
Speaker 3: It is the cancer that is destroying Africans. So there are.
1:53:43
Speaker 2: Thousands of businesses being started every day, and those who
1:53:48
don't have that grace still keep flogging it out because
1:53:51
they have been told the way to prosper The easiest
1:53:54
way to prosper is to find somebody rising and to
1:53:58
be part of their story. Relational prosperity is amazing. You
1:54:09
can step into prepared blessings by investing the gift of relationships.
1:54:18
But now the second aspect of what I want to
1:54:21
talk about is that there are three levels of wealth,
1:54:24
and with this I speak over your life. I hope
1:54:26
God has helped us today. The first level of wealth
1:54:33
is called transactional wealth. Please write it down. Transactional wealth.
1:54:40
This is wealth and financial resources that come to you
1:54:46
by reason of building and transacting your value, whether as
1:54:50
products or services. Every time you exchange value at a
1:54:57
cost through whatever platform, what comes to you. The rewards,
1:55:04
both monetory and psychic is called transactional wealth. It is
1:55:11
the rewards that you receive for exchanging value. When your
1:55:16
value is converted to products and services and served to
1:55:21
a targeted consumer based with excellence, it is called transactional wealth.
1:55:27
Speaker 3: Number two.
1:55:29
Speaker 2: The second level of wealth is called transformational wealth. That one,
1:55:36
you don't sell your value, you give it free. An
1:55:40
example is what I am doing. However, in God's justice system,
1:55:47
he designed a system such that every time value is dispensed,
1:55:52
whether it is sold for a cost or it is
1:55:55
given freely, a reward system must returned back to the giver.
1:56:00
So the Bible says it is more blessed to give
1:56:04
than to receive, because every time you give, there is
1:56:08
a divine debt in the spirit and the rewarder, which
1:56:12
is one name God, is called. It is the reason
1:56:15
why I don't feel stupid for going to research paid
1:56:19
the price. Some of this knowledge that we give the
1:56:23
Body of Christ fee were paid for. I have had
1:56:27
the honor and the privilege of speaking earlier this year.
1:56:30
I was in your nation to speak at the World
1:56:32
Conference of the Full Gospel Businessman's Fellowship. Was an honor
1:56:36
and a great time talking to some of the brightest minds,
1:56:40
leaders of conglomerates across the globe. Some of this knowledge
1:56:45
is not just from scripture. Some of this knowledge have
1:56:48
come from paid intellectual investments. So why do you give
1:56:54
it freely? Because there is a diamond one because of love.
1:56:58
But then number two, there is a dimension of wealth
1:57:01
called transformational wealth, the reward that is programmed to your
1:57:06
life by reason of freely improving lives and seeing to
1:57:11
it that men evolve. Men become that looks like you
1:57:17
are being cheapened, but it is very powerful because you see.
1:57:20
Speaker 3: Let me tell you something.
1:57:21
Speaker 2: If I am selling, if I sell this for I
1:57:27
don't know how your currency works here, my apologies, but
1:57:30
let me use a dollar. So if this goes for
1:57:33
say a dollar, even if I am a billionaire, I
1:57:37
will not buy this for a million dollars just because
1:57:40
I have money. The cost is fixed, so I will
1:57:43
pay you a dollar for it. But if I bless
1:57:46
you and you are coming to tell me thank you,
1:57:49
what you will give me will be a product of
1:57:52
your perception of my value. So one person can give
1:57:56
me one hundred dollars and another person can give me
1:57:59
a million dollar for the same content.
1:58:02
Speaker 3: It is left to their perception.
1:58:05
Speaker 2: For someone you will say you change the life of
1:58:07
my husband, my wife, my family. I want to say
1:58:10
thank you. This is the second dimension to wealth. The
1:58:16
third dimension to wealth, which is pretty only to men
1:58:20
who are spiritual, is called wealth by the prophetic wealth.
1:58:30
I would like to call it sovereign wealth. Wealth that
1:58:33
is beyond the economy of men. My goodness. If you
1:58:37
don't believe such exists, then it means you do not
1:58:40
know God that is the by this time tomorrow order
1:58:45
of wealth. Now listen, just teaching people to just shout
1:58:51
and receive as the way to prosper them is not complete.
1:58:56
You have to grow people through these ranks. You see
1:58:59
that now Transformational world helps people to build value, build relationships,
1:59:05
products and services. Then you let them know it is
1:59:08
not always about selling value. There are times that you
1:59:11
give freely, knowing that he that gives to the poor
1:59:14
lends to the lord. But there is a level. Listen
1:59:18
to me as I wrap up. This level of wealth
1:59:22
was demonstrated in John chapter twenty one. John Peter goes
1:59:27
back to the sea. Watch this now and Peter is
1:59:30
ready to catch fish. I hope you know. Peter was
1:59:34
a professional fisherman, so there was no problem in terms
1:59:38
of value. Peter had a good boat, the tools were there.
1:59:42
Peter had a net. The net was there, but he
1:59:46
did not catch fish. There are times where everything is right,
1:59:50
all the economic parameters are right, yet it is still
1:59:54
not work. At that point you switch from being a
1:59:57
businessman and what contry also wealth at that level is priesthood.
2:00:04
Every time there was famine in the Bible, there were
2:00:07
two groups of people who were exempted the king and
2:00:11
the priest. They never suffered faming. And the Bible now
2:00:16
says in today you are both kings and priests.
2:00:22
Speaker 3: Revelations five, verse ten.
2:00:24
Speaker 2: That means by reason of your call and your mandate,
2:00:28
there is an immunity as a king. And by the
2:00:32
advantage of priesthood is someone learning now, Yes, God send
2:00:42
prophets to people now. Unfortunately, the prophetic has been abused
2:00:47
so badly across the African continent.
2:00:50
Speaker 3: And thank God that God is helping to bring purifications
2:00:55
to the prophetic.
2:00:56
Speaker 2: It's an uncomfortable truth, but we have to admit it
2:00:59
that the prophet has suffered a lot of abuses across
2:01:02
several You know, it's not a call to condemn the prophetic,
2:01:07
but to lovingly call them to order and purity and consecration, sanctification.
2:01:12
That we must restore the authentic patterns of the prophetic.
2:01:17
But watch this, When the prophetic is administered within the
2:01:21
jurisdiction of scripture and with purity.
2:01:24
Speaker 3: Of spirit, it works.
2:01:26
Speaker 2: Wonders, your Jesus needed three prophets in his life to rise.
2:01:32
Number one Simeon the prophet, Number two Anna the prophetess.
2:01:38
Number three John the Baptist three, the prophetic advantage to
2:01:48
the believer. It's not a nuisance to civilization. Do not
2:01:53
let people intellectualize wealth and tell you there our own
2:01:56
believers who don't know God and.
2:01:58
Speaker 3: They are prospering.
2:01:59
Speaker 2: It is true. It depends on your definition of prosperity.
2:02:03
Some of those peop who have money, but they have
2:02:05
no peace. They have to take drugs to sleep. They
2:02:09
have all kinds of names depending on what nation they are.
2:02:12
They are John here, and Elijah there and James here.
2:02:15
They live a false life forever. They're part of devilish fraternities.
2:02:21
They feed on all can these tendful things to leave
2:02:25
Satannic occultic rituals, and then they dress well and you
2:02:30
admire them on TV. The Bible says Mark the wicked,
2:02:34
their end is destruction. It is only the Lord, God
2:02:39
of Heaven. I've had the honor, and I tell you
2:02:41
this with all humility. I've had the privilege of talking
2:02:45
to very blessed people. You do not know that there
2:02:48
are some problems that only come when you are wealthy.
2:02:51
Most people think when you are wealthy, you have no problem.
2:02:54
There are problems that will make you hate being blessed,
2:02:58
especially if it was not by God. It is the
2:03:01
reason why the Bible says the blessing of the Lord
2:03:03
maketh rich and added no sorrow. Some of these wealthy
2:03:09
people that we admire, they write books on happiness, but
2:03:15
they live lonely, purposeless lives. They're always in the face
2:03:20
of media. They are not happy, always suicidal. They contract
2:03:25
to the millions of dollars, all kinds of therapiece to
2:03:29
still keep your minds together, so that they keep giving
2:03:33
a narrative to the world that they are all right.
2:03:35
I can tell you the Prince of Peace is the
2:03:38
only one who can give men peace. In my world.
2:03:43
The greatest definition of prosperity is not money, is peace.
2:03:48
Speaker 3: No matter what you have, If you do not have.
2:03:51
Speaker 2: Peace that surpasses all understanding, you are poor. So, ladies
2:03:59
and gentlemen, the prophetic advantage was designed by God to
2:04:04
become an edge, not to replace people's sense of value,
2:04:10
not to make people careless and nonchallenged, but to become
2:04:14
a support system to the arising. I am a product
2:04:18
of prophecy today. I know what the contribution of the
2:04:23
prophetic has done to my life, both as a man
2:04:26
of God and as an individual. The day you meet,
2:04:30
the prophet sends to you, you will marvel and wonder
2:04:34
at the way God will lift you and things. The
2:04:37
Bible says there were many widows in Zarifath, it says
2:04:40
to none was Elijah said, I believe that God orchestrated
2:04:45
this session this morning, because there is a prophetic word
2:04:50
that is leaving the throne and passing through the lips
2:04:53
of clay to rest upon the destiny of someone, that God,
2:04:58
by it will rewrite narratives of your life. Listen, every
2:05:04
time people were in debt in the Bible, it was
2:05:07
not business that brought them out of debt. It was
2:05:09
the prophetic. Whether it was the ax's head that floated
2:05:12
our last master, it was borrowed. It took the prophetic
2:05:16
or the land of Sa Maria. Women eating their children.
2:05:19
Can you imagine that a woman boils their child and
2:05:22
eats the child in spite of the motherly compassion. How
2:05:28
about the wife of the sons of the prophet. They
2:05:31
came to carry the children as collateral, and the woman
2:05:34
came to the prophet and said, please do not let
2:05:35
this happen to the destiny of my children.
2:05:38
Speaker 3: And the prophet says, all right, there's something we can.
2:05:40
Speaker 2: Do about it. What do you have in your house?
2:05:44
And she says nothing. No man was even ready to
2:05:48
attend to her. And he says, now I speak to you,
2:05:51
go and borrow vessels. That go and borrow vessel was
2:05:54
not a suggestion, It was a prophetic word. No body
2:05:57
would have given her vessels if it did not prophesie.
2:06:01
If she had the ability to have vessels, she would
2:06:03
not meet him in the first place. Go and borrow
2:06:06
vessels means I speak that the helpers should do themselves.
2:06:10
Speaker 3: Around your life.
2:06:13
Speaker 2: And he said borrow not a few. When she borrowed it,
2:06:16
she came to meeting ready for the next prophetic world.
2:06:19
And he says, now lock yourself and begin to pour
2:06:23
and fill up everything. Then it says, go and sell.
2:06:26
I like that I have propheside to you, but I
2:06:30
do not ignore the transactional aspect. Now that you have it,
2:06:34
still you will still need business sense.
2:06:37
Speaker 3: Go and sell it. Pay off your debt.
2:06:39
Speaker 2: These are economic principles because the moment you begin to
2:06:43
pro but the first thing you do is to pay
2:06:44
your debt. Then it says, leave off the rest. So
2:06:48
prophecy did not negate the economic advantage that they had.
2:06:55
This is the mistake that the prophetic has brought to
2:06:59
the church. So we make people to ignore their minds,
2:07:03
throw away their brains, throw away their creativity.
2:07:06
Speaker 3: And ones who can just listen to.
2:07:08
Speaker 2: A prophetic word, magically your life will change. And because
2:07:12
God honors the prophetic, it will work. So someone comes
2:07:15
to give a testimony. You propheside and ten thousand dollars
2:07:19
one hundred thousand dollars. God open doors for me and somebody,
2:07:23
even if a stranger.
2:07:25
Speaker 3: But now they do not know what to do with it.
2:07:27
Speaker 2: And one month later they go back to there yesterday
2:07:30
and they remain there only to become slaves to prophecies.
2:07:34
The advantage of the prophetic, hear me, ladies and gentlemen,
2:07:37
is that the prophetic rests upon a mind that has
2:07:40
been transformed, rests upon a mind that is enlightened. Then
2:07:45
you will see the potential of the prophetic. I'm about
2:07:50
to speak over your life because many of you are
2:07:52
business people, many of you are leaders. Many of you
2:07:55
have paid the price to value knowledge. Let the wise
2:08:00
man not glory in his wisdom. There is glory in wisdom.
2:08:05
Let not the powerful or mighty man glory in his might.
2:08:10
There is glory in might. And then let not the
2:08:14
rich man glory in his riches. There is glory in riches.
2:08:20
Rise upon your faith. Please, rise upon your faith. M allelujah. Now,
2:08:50
please hear me. I got to a point in my
2:08:54
life where I made up my mind that I wanted
2:08:59
God to help help me by his messy to a
2:09:02
point where I can serve him with sincerity of heart
2:09:07
and never get to a point where I compromise on
2:09:11
the integrity and the purity of His word because of finances.
2:09:16
I'm going to tell you something that I wanted to
2:09:18
listen very carefully. The Lord spoke to me one time
2:09:25
to go ad meet one of the fathers of faith
2:09:27
in our nation. And I got up and took that
2:09:32
step of faith. I carried a seed. It was truly
2:09:36
a seed. No matter how blessed you are, it will
2:09:40
cost you something. And I went there. I remember when
2:09:45
I went, and I sold the seed. And then I
2:09:49
was about to enter the can leave. The Lord told me, said,
2:09:54
place your hand on the ground there. When I did,
2:09:58
he said, from this day you have entered the overflow annointing.
2:10:06
Please hear me.
2:10:10
Speaker 3: If I do not tell you this, my conscience will
2:10:14
judge me.
2:10:17
Speaker 2: One of the ways that you provoke the prophetic. One
2:10:22
of the ways that you provoke a swan blessing is honor.
2:10:30
One of the ways to provoke the prophetic is obedience.
2:10:35
But the final way you provoke the prophetic is sacrifice.
2:10:41
When it was time for Isaac to bless his sons,
2:10:45
Isaac was already a wealthy man. Isaac was a great man.
2:10:49
Please listen to me, and he said, he called his
2:10:54
son Isso he said, my son, go to the field,
2:10:58
make me venisy such as my soul loves, so that
2:11:05
I will take it, and then I will bless you,
2:11:10
because I'm about to die. The verny sing he ended
2:11:14
up eating was his own animal that was at the
2:11:18
back of his house. So he had it, and he
2:11:22
had a wife who could prepare it. Because what he
2:11:24
ended up eating was launch or dinner that Rebecca that
2:11:31
Rebeccah prepared. So why did he want his soul to
2:11:37
go down and get the venison and come and make
2:11:41
it himself? Not his wife had a wife that could cook,
2:11:47
had cattle. But he said, no, not my own. Go
2:11:51
don't even go.
2:11:51
Speaker 3: To the back, go to the forest.
2:11:54
Speaker 2: Bring the one that is a product of your productivity
2:11:57
and your labor. Let me be excited, and let my
2:12:02
soul bless you. And when Rebecca heard him, he said,
2:12:06
all right, Jacob, come, something is about to happen. There
2:12:09
is a transaction.
2:12:11
Speaker 3: What came from Abraham.
2:12:14
Speaker 2: To your father that made him so in the land
2:12:17
of famine is about to leave him. I've heard what
2:12:22
he's told Isaul. Quickly, I will make for you venison
2:12:27
and put everything together. Go and serve him. Ladies and gentleman,
2:12:32
please hear me the life of this man. You see,
2:12:35
I have entered rems and dimensions in the spirit by
2:12:39
the power of sacrifice Psalm fifty, verse five. Gather onto
2:12:45
me my sayings they that have made a convenant with
2:12:49
me by sacrifice. Again, I'm very I feel very uncomfortable
2:12:57
sharing what I'm sharing with you because of the many
2:13:00
abuses in the body of Christ. But remember, the person
2:13:04
who is talking to is a man who loves you
2:13:06
sincerely and a man who fears God. I fear God
2:13:09
with all my heart. God has shown me messy. It's
2:13:12
not at this point in ministry that our common manipulate people. No,
2:13:17
there is nothing I'm looking for that God.
2:13:18
Speaker 3: Has not given me. God has shown me messy.
2:13:21
Speaker 2: God has carried many, many lifetimes of people, and He
2:13:26
has brought today with all humility and by grace.
2:13:29
Speaker 3: But hear me, there is a realm where you do business.
2:13:34
Speaker 2: With God in the spirit, and the commodity for exchange
2:13:38
is blood. Blood there represents sacrifice, something that will cost you.
2:13:47
There are moments in my life where I took certain things.
2:13:51
Last year I think it was God gave it an
2:13:54
instruction that had not come for many years in my life.
2:13:58
I may give God has helped me. I love giving
2:14:00
even if there were no rewards. But last year God
2:14:04
gave me an instruction to sow a very huge amount,
2:14:10
you know, on behalf of the ministry. And then when
2:14:15
he told me that, I said, fine, the ministry will
2:14:18
give this. And then the next instruction came. I don't
2:14:23
think there's anything I cannot give God in my life.
2:14:25
And I say this with every sense of humility, but
2:14:28
that one, I know that one shook me s more.
2:14:30
I'm telling you, between me and God, God now said
2:14:33
what I asked that the ministry would give. I want you,
2:14:38
as a person, give twice of it. After telling God,
2:14:44
yes to your willow. I don't know if I would
2:14:47
have said yes if he allowed me to now say
2:14:49
yes that the ministry will give. Then he said you
2:14:53
this amount. I don't want to tell you because some
2:14:56
of you will not sleep if you hear it. Believe me,
2:15:01
you cannot lie and say it was not God. You
2:15:04
would repeat it again if you want to hear him.
2:15:08
Speaker 3: And I said, oh, Lord, it is your grace.
2:15:11
Speaker 2: There is nothing I have that does not belong to you,
2:15:15
and if you have called for it, you do not
2:15:18
need it. It is because you are ready to take
2:15:20
me to another level. Listen. By the time I dragged
2:15:27
that sacrifice like Abraham dragging, Isaac.
2:15:32
Speaker 3: Gave the one for the ministry, and then I laid.
2:15:36
Speaker 2: Down my own Ah, something happened to me that had
2:15:41
not happened in a long time. I stepped into a
2:15:45
level of grace, a level of influence, a level of power,
2:15:52
a level of help from the Lord in a way
2:15:57
that I'm not sure I would have gotten any other way.
2:16:03
Speaker 3: I'm not very good at sharing my testimonies.
2:16:05
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, it say a weakness that I have prayed for
2:16:08
me is because I always want people to see Jesus
2:16:11
and that their focus should not be me, but ladies
2:16:14
and gentlemen, I am one person who has seen the
2:16:18
goodness of the Lord.
2:16:21
Speaker 3: All my life.
2:16:22
Speaker 2: You have been faith all my life. You have been
2:16:30
so so good. Every bread that I am made, I.
2:16:41
Speaker 6: Will say of the goodness.
2:16:51
Speaker 2: On account of the instruction God gave me. God did
2:16:56
something in my life that till forever I will never
2:17:01
recover from.
2:17:03
Speaker 3: I'm saying this because I want to pray for you.
2:17:06
Speaker 2: But when I teach on finances, I never speak upon
2:17:10
people without them having a seed in their hand.
2:17:14
Speaker 3: And this that I'm telling you, even me, I'm going
2:17:17
to break out a seed.
2:17:18
Speaker 2: It's a principle. If you don't believe what I'm saying,
2:17:21
that's fine, you just listen and say amen to whatever
2:17:23
I say. But hear me. If you are truly at
2:17:29
a defining point in your destiny and there are certain
2:17:35
things you need to end in ministry, I'm sorry I
2:17:39
did not even discuss this with its eminence. My sincere
2:17:41
apologies for perhaps breaking any protocol. But don't drop a
2:17:46
seed yet. Hold on, hold on, It's not about money.
2:17:49
It's not about money. Please listen.
2:17:51
Speaker 3: It's not about money.
2:17:52
Speaker 2: Most believers thinking you can drop something in a basket,
2:17:55
and that is.
2:17:56
Speaker 3: Donation not sacrifice.
2:17:57
Speaker 2: Listen. What makes it scrifice is not the seed, it
2:18:01
is the understanding that supports what you are doing. So
2:18:05
please listen. I have stepped into defining seasons in my life.
2:18:13
The first time I would experience the lifting power the
2:18:17
prophetic order of wealth and prosperity happened when I gave
2:18:23
two women. I went to buy sugar cane years ago,
2:18:29
and then I saw two old women. They were also
2:18:32
trying to buy the sugar cane, and I said, please,
2:18:34
I'm a young man.
2:18:35
Speaker 3: You are mothers. Would you give me the honor of
2:18:37
paying for you? They said no, no, no.
2:18:38
Speaker 2: No, no no no. I said please, I insisted, and
2:18:41
so I paid. It was not more than I don't
2:18:45
know what that would translate in Nigeria and Nira would
2:18:47
say hundred naira and so that's not really anything serious.
2:18:51
Speaker 3: There's a meager amount ae luyah.
2:18:55
Speaker 2: And then when I dropped it, they gave them the
2:18:58
sugar cane and the women began to bless me, and
2:19:02
for some reason I didn't pay attention to what they
2:19:04
were saying. I truly believe today that they were not humans.
2:19:09
One of the women looked at me and said, my
2:19:11
son forever, work upon gold. How does a person who
2:19:23
is looking frail and weak look at.
2:19:26
Speaker 3: A young man and say, work upon gold.
2:19:30
Speaker 2: There are mysterious people on this ehetto, and when God
2:19:34
wants to lift you, he will help you to collide
2:19:36
with one of them. Alleluyah, praise the name of the Lord.
2:19:44
And I can tell you story upon stories people who
2:19:49
have prayed from their heart and release certain things to
2:19:53
program a cloud of favor.
2:19:57
Speaker 3: And I want to do the same today.
2:20:00
Speaker 2: I want to do the same right now, to a businessman,
2:20:04
to a pastor, to an apostle, to a prophet, to
2:20:08
an evangelist who really intends to serve Jesus, to a
2:20:13
young man seeking establishment, a young man who desires to
2:20:18
do ministribute integrity, perhaps an ajiac person who is saying,
2:20:22
will like die like this without saying the glory of God.
2:20:25
Speaker 3: I want to challenge you by the spirit of God,
2:20:27
whether now or whenever.
2:20:30
Speaker 2: I want to challenge you to hold a seed in
2:20:32
your hand. I want to use this as a prophetic
2:20:35
contact and pray for you. If you do not believe
2:20:39
what I'm saying, please don't be under pressure, don't worry.
2:20:42
You will not go to hell. But I want to
2:20:46
challenge you. You will for the rest of your life.
2:20:50
You will live to testify over what I'm about to
2:20:53
do in your life. If you need envelopes, do we
2:20:56
have the ascious? Let me chal lend you stand with something.
2:21:03
Take a minute while you are doing that to begin.
2:21:05
Speaker 3: To talk to the Lord further.
2:21:07
Speaker 2: My life must change my life.
2:21:12
Speaker 3: For someone who may be following.
2:21:13
Speaker 2: Online, you're seeing a preacher who is speaking to you
2:21:19
by the spirit of God. Let the wise man not
2:21:23
glory in his wisdom. Let the mighty, you're a powerful man,
2:21:27
not glory in his might. Let the rich man not
2:21:31
glory in his riches. There is glory in wisdom. There
2:21:35
is glory in power. There is glory in riches. God
2:21:42
wants to help us. I see that there areccounts that
2:21:46
are displayed. I want to pray for you. You honestly
2:21:52
don't have a seed to sow. Why don't you hold
2:21:54
the hands of someone who is sowing and say, Lord,
2:21:57
you see my heart. Sincerely, I may not have a sein,
2:22:00
but let me still connect to this prophecy.
2:22:09
Speaker 6: You will never be the same. You've touched his grace.
2:22:15
Your life has changed. You will never be the same.
2:22:22
Speaker 3: Hold on let me pray you've touched His grace.
2:22:26
Speaker 2: Your life has changed. Allelujah. As I'm speaking to you now,
2:22:32
I already know what the Lord has put in my heart.
2:22:34
To soul too.
2:22:35
Speaker 3: Because the Lord does not change when you become blessed.
2:22:39
Speaker 2: I would be I would be a hypocrite if I
2:22:43
stand here as a preacher and I say to soul
2:22:46
and then I don't do it myself. Now, do you
2:22:52
believe in what we're doing. Take a minute and begin
2:22:55
to cry to the Lord. The dimensions should desire to
2:22:59
step in, especially in the area of your business or finances.
2:23:03
Speaker 3: Go ahead, please, go ahead and pray.
2:23:05
Speaker 2: Pray, holding your seed in your hand, sam As salon
2:23:14
saska likakablanda carriata. It is an ordinance, It is a
2:23:23
principle sacrifice. The money you are holding is a representation
2:23:29
of your value, your desire, your productivity.
2:23:37
Speaker 3: Take a minute and pray someone. Pray someone who is in.
2:23:41
Speaker 2: Debt right now, who needs to come out of it.
2:23:45
A man of God who is trusting God for help,
2:23:48
trusting God for partnership. When you sacrifice before the Lord,
2:23:54
money is not the only thing that returns to you.
2:23:57
God is able to give your seed and not that body.
2:24:01
Please pray we're wrapping up Shanny Saberlan shop ran the
2:24:07
cabaracos Capria ship Abras says, all less, char La cross,
2:24:11
caverendo sabria typelas in.
2:24:19
Speaker 3: The name of Jesus Christ.
2:24:22
Speaker 2: Now, this is what I want you to do, whether
2:24:26
you are kneeling or standing any position that is comfortable.
2:24:29
I want to make prophetic declarations over you. Please listen
2:24:33
to me. God sent me here and I want you
2:24:36
to believe it as I speak over your life. The
2:24:40
prophetic is revelatory, but the most superior dimension of the
2:24:45
prophetic is the creative dimension. It doesn't just reveal, it
2:24:50
makes happen what has no business happening. By this time,
2:24:55
he said tomorrow, he was not revealing what would have happened.
2:24:59
It was that prophetic word that made that event happen.
2:25:04
Some of you by reason of this prophetic word, even
2:25:06
before the evening session, you will return back with strange manifestations.
2:25:16
How does God bless men through the ministry of men? Simple?
2:25:20
There is no mysfeare around it. It is man God
2:25:24
will use to bless you good measure, he says, Press down,
2:25:28
shaken together, running over shall men gave. It always comes
2:25:33
from God, but it comes through man to man. There
2:25:36
is no haziness. There's no confusion as how God lives.
2:25:40
Listen to me. The money you are looking for today
2:25:44
is in somebody's account right now.
2:25:45
Speaker 3: It's not in heaven.
2:25:47
Speaker 2: The opportunity, the property, the access, whatever it is you
2:25:52
are looking for, there are current possessors of it right
2:25:55
now on earth.
2:25:58
Speaker 3: The assignment is the favor of God.
2:26:00
Speaker 2: Will compel events and compel people to gravitate that which
2:26:05
is your portion and bring it to you. Are you
2:26:07
ready to receive? Please rise up with faith. When I
2:26:10
speak over your life. I'm going to plead that His
2:26:13
Eminence will come and make prophetic declarations from the depth
2:26:18
of his spirit as a man of God and as
2:26:22
a father, and over this land is an ordinance that
2:26:26
God honors Father. In the name of Jesus Christ, I
2:26:31
stand as one sent by you by the privilege of
2:26:36
this conference.
2:26:37
Speaker 3: I have come to speak over your people.
2:26:39
Speaker 2: I have taught them truth as revealed in scripture, My
2:26:43
God and my King.
2:26:44
Speaker 3: I pray right now upon everyone who is on.
2:26:48
Speaker 2: That the sound of my voice, I decree and declare
2:26:52
everything that looks like a negative cloud over your finances,
2:26:58
over your business, over your ministry. By reason of this sacrifice,
2:27:04
I commanded to give with now. I commanded to give
2:27:11
with now. I call on Heaven to be a witness
2:27:17
to what you are doing. Honor to God and honor
2:27:21
to disgrace. Therefore I decree and declare. I call upon Ebniza,
2:27:27
the one who helps man, the one who helped Hsiah
2:27:31
until he was my velously helped. I call upon Ebniza.
2:27:36
May he begin to help you from today. May my
2:27:40
God begin to help you from today. May the God
2:27:44
of my covenant begin to help you from today, Man
2:27:48
of God. By reason of this sacrifice, May God give
2:27:52
you strange visibility in ministry, strange visibility in business, visibility
2:28:00
in career. Every door that has been closed towards your business.
2:28:07
I stand by the road of the Apostolic under prophetic.
2:28:11
I speak to that door, and Father be opened. And
2:28:17
farther be opened, and Father be opened.
2:28:26
Speaker 3: Yeuh me.
2:28:28
Speaker 2: Anyone here in debt you are owing and builds out
2:28:34
on your neck. It doesn't matter how you got there.
2:28:37
I call upon the God of all grace. I taught
2:28:40
you about the nature of God yesterday, in the name
2:28:43
that is above all names. May God lift you in
2:28:46
a way that surprises you. Do you believe what you
2:28:54
are receiving? Now look or please listen. Anointing that makes
2:29:02
for wealth an abundance comes upon three dimensions of your life.
2:29:08
Speaker 3: Please listen.
2:29:09
Speaker 2: The first area where they are anointing to prosper rests
2:29:13
upon is your head, representing your mind.
2:29:17
Speaker 3: Please listen.
2:29:18
Speaker 2: When they are anointing to prosper comes, it rests upon
2:29:21
your mind. It is responsible for creativity intelligence. Are we
2:29:27
together now because your mind is one of the tools
2:29:31
that programs wealth and abundance in your life. So the
2:29:34
anointing of the spirit Ellie who said there is a
2:29:37
spirit in man, and the breath of the Almighty maked
2:29:42
men of understanding when they are.
2:29:45
Speaker 3: Annointing to prosper comes.
2:29:46
Speaker 2: This is how it works, I'm teaching you. It rests
2:29:49
upon your mind, giving you supernatural illumination that you now
2:29:54
begin to see things that others do not see. Number two,
2:29:59
it rests upon your hands. Your hand is your whipon
2:30:03
of productivity. The Bible says God will bless the works
2:30:07
not of your feet, the works not of your mind,
2:30:10
the works of your hands. When your mind is blessed
2:30:14
and your hands are not blessed. You will have creative ideas,
2:30:18
witty inventions help those on that the anointing, and yet
2:30:22
the power to execute will not be there. So they
2:30:25
are notting to crossper rests upon your hand, empowering you
2:30:29
to be circumspect extraordinary productivity, services, bringing value with excellence.
2:30:38
The Bible says, Oh Lord, our God, how excellent is
2:30:41
your name. It is the assignment of your hand to
2:30:44
make your brand or your name excellent.
2:30:47
Speaker 3: Number three.
2:30:49
Speaker 2: The third area where they are annointing to prosper rest
2:30:52
upon is upon your feet, bringing you direction and guidance.
2:30:58
You can be productive to a wrong audience, productive to
2:31:02
a wrong place. There are many people right now. Your
2:31:06
problem is location, wrong place, wrong people. Are we together? Yes, doubts,
2:31:15
shall hear your voice from behind saying this is the way,
2:31:19
what ye in it? And you will find rest for
2:31:21
your soul. There are people by reason of what you
2:31:24
are receiving. You will receive guidance, direction, you are gonna
2:31:32
and God will tell you that business in America that
2:31:34
is the one that prospers you that opportunity. Listen. If
2:31:38
you guess your way through the journey of wealth, you
2:31:41
will be a product of scammers. You will be a
2:31:44
product of fraud stars. You will make on wise mistakes
2:31:48
that will punish you in succession until you give up.
2:31:52
It says the Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want.
2:31:56
He makes me to lie that wahen green passes. He
2:32:00
restores my soul. He guides me, He leads me, He
2:32:05
guides me, He leads me, he guides me, he leads me.
2:32:11
