• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Pastor Yemi David and his dear wife, Pastor Bimbo. Let's
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: give them a big hand clap. And I so wanted
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: to connect to the earlier sessions, but unfortunately... just the
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: rigor of our transit. But I'm sure that it's been
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: an awesome time so far. Let's honor Pastor Shola. God
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: bless you, sir. In the name of Jesus. Pastor, I
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: honor you in the name of Jesus. And everyone, every man,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: woman of God here, the Lord bless you in Jesus' name.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: I know like Pastor has said, our time is fast spent,
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: but at least let me introduce my session and then
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: we'll find somewhere to pray. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Lift your hands
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: to heaven again and let's ask God to speak to us.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: It's in His light that we see light.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Go ahead and bless Him. Every moment with the Spirit
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: is a moment of encounter. Every moment with the Spirit
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: is a moment of lifting. Every moment with the Spirit
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: is a moment of transformation. Every moment with the Holy Spirit.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Is a moment of transitioning from one level, one dimension
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: to the other. Take a minute to pray. You're not
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: wasting your time. This is an investment. The Bible says,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: He that sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: reap life eternal, life everlasting. You are making spiritual investments.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: You are making spiritual investments. Blessed be the name of
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: the Lord. Hallelujah. Please be seated.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Be seated. Let's look to scripture for a few minutes.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: And as the river flows, it begins to bring every
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: death into life. It's a life-giving rain. And as the river.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Flows, it begins to.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Bring every dead thing to life.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: It's the life-giving river.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Holy Spirit. I'm teaching tonight on the river
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: of life. The river of life. Now, there are three
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: gifts that God gave.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Man at salvation.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: When you encounter Jesus Christ, the son of the living God,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: at the new birth experience, there are essentially three gifts
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: that are given to everyone who comes to Christ.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Number one is called the.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Gift of forgiveness of sins. The forgiveness of sin. Ephesians 1, 7.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Forgiveness of sin. I'm just introducing my session. The Bible
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: says in whom we have redemption through his blood, the
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: forgiveness of sins according to the.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: Riches of his grace.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: So everyone who comes to Jesus in order of priority,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: this is the first thing you receive.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: The forgiveness of sins. Number two is called the gift
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: of righteousness. The gift of righteousness. Righteousness.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Romans chapter 5 and verse 17. 5, 17.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: Romans 5, 17.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: For if by one man's offense, death reigned by one.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: It says much more.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: They which receive the abundance of grace, which is the
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: gift of righteousness.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: It said they shall reign by one Jesus Christ. Are
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: we learning already?
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: That when you come to Christ, the first thing you
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: receive is the forgiveness of sin. The second that you
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: receive is an imputation of the gift of righteousness.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: E.W.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Kenyon defines righteousness as the ability to stand before the Father.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Without a sense of guilt, a sense of inferiority, or
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: a sense of condemnation. And there are two dimensions to righteousness.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: It is first the nature of God imputed into the believer,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: and then it is the outwalking That comes from that consciousness.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Are we together?
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: The third thing that we receive after we encounter Christ
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: is called abundant life.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Zoe. That life. John chapter 10 and verse 10.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I hope you know that conferences like these are moments
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: of upgrade in the spirit. Everything the Holy Spirit does
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: is always in honor of his word. So, All the
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: words that you have heard from the anointed vessels, they
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: have come to build you. Conferences are moments of maturity.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: You take away haziness and gaps in.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Your spiritual understanding.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: Because your accuracy as far as life and destiny is
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: concerned is a reflection of your accuracy of the understanding
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: of the ways of God.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Are we learning now?
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: So the third thing that we receive is abundant life.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: John 10 10. Jesus said the.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Thief cometh not but for to steal, to kill, and
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: to destroy.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: He says but I am come that ye may have life.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Say life. One more time. Shout it. Say life.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: And that you have that life more abundantly. Amplified says
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: to its fullness. You take note of that now. In
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: 1st John chapter 5 we are reading from 11 to 13.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: 1st John 5 11 to 13. 1st John chapter 5
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: 11 to 13. It says and this is the record
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: that God has given us eternal life. Say I have
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: eternal life. Say it like you believe it. I have
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: eternal life. It says, and this life is in his son.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: The next verse.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: He that had the son had life. And he that
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: had not the son had not life. In fact, we
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: can stop there. So let me recap very quickly. Introducing
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: my session, I said that when an individual comes to
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, the first thing you receive is called the
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: forgiveness of sins.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Do not forget this.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: It is a solid theological understanding that you must have.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: If this is faulty, you will be building on faulty ground.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: It's important for you to know what Jesus gave us
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: on account of redemption.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: He did not just give us forgiveness.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: If you are conscious of the forgiveness of sins alone,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: your Christian experience will still not be rich. In addition
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: to forgiveness of sin, are we together? Before he died,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: he had forgiven men of their sins. So it was
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: not new forgiving men, but he gave us the righteousness
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: of God in Christ.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: His very righteousness.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: And then ultimately, the highest gift he gave man was
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: his life. Not his kind, his very life. It is
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: not the God kind of life. It is God's very life.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: The Bible calls it partakers of his divine nature. according
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: as his divine power hath given us all things that
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: pertains unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: that has called us into glory and virtue, the Bible says,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: that by these we might be partakers of his divine nature,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Are we learning now?
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Now this is very important because this revelation is a
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: strong foundation. to my session. You have to understand this.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: So he gave us forgiveness, righteousness.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: And life.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Let me define for you life from the Bible's perspective.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: If I stop here, we've done justice to the introduction tonight.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Because if we are examining the river of life, it's
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: important to know what life is. Life here, based on scripture,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: is beyond mere existence.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: This is what you need to understand.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: When the Bible talks about life, it is not just
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: talking of existence.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: It's not talking of being alive.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: Like you are still breathing in and breathing out. Because
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: according to Bible understanding, a man can be dead even
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: though alive. So when the Bible talks about life, it
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: is beyond just being, having the ability to breathe in oxygen.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: And breathe out carbon dioxide. I'll tell you what the
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: Bible defines as life. Life here.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Means the summation of every component that upgrades a man
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: to the God class. This is what is called life.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Every component in Christ that can upgrade an ordinary man
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: to be and to function in the God class is
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: what the Bible summarizes as life.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: Did you get that? Every component. It's a summation.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: Of every component in Christ that is able to upgrade
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: ordinary men, mere men, to be and to reflect Christ.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: The Bible calls it life. This is very important.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: The components of fellowship with God, the components of wisdom
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: and intelligence, the components of abundance, the components of power,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: for instance, the components of health and vitality, these are
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: all components that add up to what we call life.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: So when Jesus says, I am come that ye may
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: have life, now you understand what he's saying.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: He's not just meaning I came.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: To give you an ability to breathe in and breathe out.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: You already had that biological life, even in sin. He
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: came to upgrade your quality of life to the God class.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Access to fellowship with the Father, life. Access to wisdom
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: that surpasses all human understanding, life. Access to superior intelligence, life.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Access to abundance, life. Access to power, even the power
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: of the Holy Spirit, life.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Access to health and vitality. Life.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Access to joy that is only of the Holy Ghost. Life.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: Somebody say life.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: So when the Bible says, I am come, every time
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: you hear life from Bible English, don't just think biology.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: You will be wrong. You will be limiting the potential
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: of that life. Are we together now? Jesus would not
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: pay the whole price and die just to give us
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: what we already had. What he came to give us
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: was beyond breathing in and breathing out.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: Life here is not life after death.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: It is dominion, victory, a life superior to That can
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: only be traced to God. Behold what manner of love
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: the father has bestowed upon us. That we should be
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: called sons of God. And when Jesus claimed to be
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: the son of God. They accused him because their understanding.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Was that if you are the son of God. You
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: have made yourself equal with God. Are we together now?
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: That that life does not make us equal to God,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: but it makes us equal with God. Equal to God
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: means we can replace him. Equal with God.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Means we are partakers of that quality of life. Are
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: we learning already?
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: We are not equal to God. There are things God
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: has that we don't have. For instance, God is omnipresent.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: He did not share that quality with man. God is omniscient, all-knowing.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: He did not share that quality with man. God is omnipotent, all-powerful.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: He did not share that with man. our union with
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: christ and the authority that is derived from that union
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: it is derived it is not absolute our dominion is
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: derived it is not absolute meaning the functionality of the
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: believer depends on his connection to god it is not
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: like we can function out of him in him we
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: live in him we move and in him we have
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: our being are we learning already So when the Bible
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: says life, it's important for you to know what Jesus
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: gave you. Because if you are not aware of what
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: he gave you, you will not be able to maximize it.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: I'm teaching on the river of life. So life here
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: talks about.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: Everything that has the ability, every component that can upgrade
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: a man, regardless your culture, regardless your background, regardless the courses,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: regardless the limitations, biological, sociological, it doesn't matter. Once you
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: receive that life, the potential to be upgraded to a
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: God class.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Is what he gave you.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Most believers only think Jesus died to forgive their sins.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: So they are not able. They walk free.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: But they do not walk in dominion. Freedom is different
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: from dominion.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Are we together?
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Freedom is the consciousness that you are guiltless. Your fault
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: has been pardoned. But dominion is a revelation of your nature.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Many believers are free. But they are not walking in victory.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Because victory is beyond freedom. It's being upgraded to a
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: God class. How many of you have seen people you
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: used to know before they were upgraded politically? Say to
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: a governor. And you can say you are now the CEO.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: We used to be roommates.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: You are right.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: But something happened to that person. Whether election, selection, qualification,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: merit that upgraded that person.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: Are we together?
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: So when you come into Christ, you are no longer
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: a normal human being. And it's difficult to understand because
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: it's a spiritual reality. And because we are usually natural people,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: it would take some moments of upgrade for us to
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: accept that that reality has been planted in our spirits.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: But he gave us forgiveness. He gave us righteousness. He
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: gave us life. If you know this already, you will
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: see why certain diseases should not remain. It is not
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: just because of your prayer. It is not just because
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: of your fasting. Your prayer and your fasting must be
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: driven by this consciousness that you were given life.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Someone say life. Life. This is what he gave. Life. Life.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: Not just forgiveness of sins. Life. Are we together now? Yes.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: So when you believe.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: That you have been given that life, everything from you,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: we're coming to that.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: Hopefully that will be my session tomorrow.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: But if you do not know that in addition to forgiveness,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: you were given righteousness. In addition to righteousness, you were
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: given life. Someone prophesy life. Forget about what is happening
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: in your life. Life there means I've been given access
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: to abundance. Life means I've been given access to dominion.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Life means I've been given access to speed. Life means
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: I've been given access to command restoration. Life means I
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: can tame life. This life, it is a victorious life.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: So if I come to you and I want to
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: solve your problems, the first thing I want to know.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: Is have you received that life?
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: This is supposed to be the correct theology for evangelism.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: That I have come to present you a gift. First,
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: the forgiveness of sin. Clears the guilt. Second, righteousness. Gives
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: you access to the Father.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: Third, life. The access to live victoriously.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: You cannot be a powerful man of God without a
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: consciousness of life. Life is greater than anointing. Anointing is
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: what gives credence to the consciousness of life.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Are we together now? Yes. Do you know what it
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: means to.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Be called a life-giving spirit? This is a quality of
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: life that even Adam did not have. What God restored
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: was not the same life Adam had. Adam was a
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: living soul, but he could not transfer life to any
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: other thing.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: You see that now.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: If there were a sick person in the Garden of Eden,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Adam would not be able to heal him because he
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: was not a life-giving spirit. He was a living soul.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: Blessed be the name of the Lord. I promise to
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: keep to time. So that life here talks about the
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: summation of every component.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: Don't forget this.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Every component in Christ that upgrades an ordinary man.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Look at me.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: When Nebuchadnezzar became an animal, my question is what part
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: of him was degraded? What is the difference between a
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: man and an animal?
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: Huh?
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: There are animals that look like men. Why don't you
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: call them men? So at what point does a human
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: being become downgraded? It is a quality of life. Are
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: we together now? The moment you lose a certain quality
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: of life, you can no longer be called human. You
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: will be called something else. Fish has life. Animals have life.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: The problem, the reason why you cannot give them that status, man,
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: is because their life is lower than the quality allotted
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: for humans.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: Albeit they have life. Are we together?
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: So if i want to turn you to an animal
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: i use situations and circumstances to stain your life Such
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: that you will be better. You will not live like
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: a human being again. For instance poverty. For instance pain.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: So there are programmings that reduce men. The assignment is
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: not just to afflict your body.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: It is an.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: Attack on your life. That I will do something to
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: this individual. So when the thief comes. He's not looking
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: for your money. He's looking for that quality of life.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: That exalts you to the God class. He begins to rob.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: And by robbing he's degrading you. Any other thing aside
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: from the person God created. He's satisfied. You need to
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: know what Satan is looking for. If you think Satan
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: is looking for your finances, you got it wrong. If
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: you think Satan is looking for your child, you got
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: it wrong. That level of passion is beyond finances. That
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: level of passion is beyond destroying your ministry.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: It is an attack. The only way God can.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Be represented in an individual is that there is a
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: certain kind of life you must emit to the world.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: It is in manifesting that life that they see God.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: Anything lower than that life will paint another creature, not God.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: Are we together now?
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: So when Satan comes to your life, He's attacking one thing,
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: the God factor in you. Whatever has the ability to
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: reveal the glory of the Lord in your life. If
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: it is the anointing upon your life in ministry, he
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: will attack that anointing. If it is your children, he
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: will attack the children. So the weapons that he fashions
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: is based on the degree that it can attack the
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: life of God in you.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: If it is your finances, he will attack your finances.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: Because in attacking your finances, he has seen that it
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: will affect the quality of your life. If it is
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: your health, if being sick will discourage a thousand people,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: he will attack your health. Not because of you, but
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: the effect. Satan is very visionary. He is threatened by
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: the revelation of the life of God. And all his
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: attack is to this end. The problem is we are
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: looking at the finances, the children. Why am I barring?
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Why am I not getting a job? No, that is
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: a very inferior way of thinking. I'm giving you spiritual intelligence.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: That when Satan comes to attack a man, he's beyond finance.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: He's not interested.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: It's beyond lack of a child or having a child.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: That's none of his business. All that he's looking for
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: is God. The God factor within that individual. He wants
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: to so damage it that your life becomes a poor
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: representation of God.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: It's his assignment. That's why he's called a thief.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: Have you ever asked that what he steals, what he kills,
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: what he destroys? My question is what does he do
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: with it? If a thief steals your money, it's because
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: he needs money. But Satan does not need what he's
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: stealing from you. So why does he steal it? Because
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: it is not.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: Useful to him. Why does he steal it? What does
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: he want to do with your health?
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Does it add to him? What does he want to
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: do with your finances? Is Satan looking for your job?
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: He's not a rival in your company. He's not seeking
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: to be a director in the company. So why is
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: he fighting the saints? This is what we need to understand.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Jesus said, I am come that ye may have life.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: That life is the pathway to the revelation of his glory.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: If you are not a custodian of that light, it
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: is impossible for your life to glorify God. So he
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: upgrades men by giving them that life as a gift.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Are we together now? Now let me say one more thing.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: I hope we are learning so far. Have you forgotten
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: anything I said so far? The Holy Spirit will bring
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: it in your remembrance. Because it's important. This is beyond
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: a discussion. These are the vital keys that will help
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: you walk in glory and dominion. That when we came
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: to Jesus Christ, as you made that altar call, if
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: anyone has answered the altar call tonight, this is what
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: happened to you. Whether you felt it or not, that
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: you were given three things. The forgiveness of sins. You
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: were given the gift of righteousness through the abundance of
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: his grace and mercy. And that you were given lives away.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: God's kind and God's life in fact.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Now let me say this. Now I introduce the Holy Spirit.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: The Holy Spirit I wrote here is both.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: The conveyor and the administrator of the life of God
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: in man.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: The Holy Spirit is the conveyor.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: He's the one who brings that life and he's the
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: administrator that releases the potential in that life.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: You need to listen carefully.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: As much as it is wonderful to have received the
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: life of God, the Holy Spirit is the conveyor in
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: giving you that life. The office responsible for conveying that
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: life and administering the riches embedded in.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: That life is the office of the Holy Spirit. Hallelujah.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: The Holy Spirit is.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: Both the conveyor and the administrator of the life of
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: God in man.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: Romans chapter 8 and verse 2.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: I want to now introduce you to a name the
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: Holy Spirit is called.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: He's called the Spirit of Life. The Bible says.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Verse 1, when you read it says, there is therefore
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus.
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: Are we still here?
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: Who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Read verse 2 with me if you can see it projected.
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: Ready? One, two, go. For the law of the Spirit
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: of life.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: In Christ Jesus had set me free from the law
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: of sin and death.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: One more time.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: For the law of the spirit of life in Christ
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: Jesus had set me free from the law of sin
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: and death.
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: Now watch this.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: Paul introduces the Holy Spirit in a very spectacular way.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: The Spirit of life.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Jesus called him several things, but did not call him
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: the Spirit of life directly. It was Paul by revelation
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: that introduced this dimension of the Holy Spirit.
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: That is not only the spirit of truth. He is
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: not only the comforter.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: When it has to do with conveying the life that
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: is in the Christ. And manifesting the riches embedded in
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: that life. It is not in isolation to the Holy Spirit.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: He is called the spirit of life. Are we learning
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: dear people? The spirit of life. John chapter 7.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: 37 to 39. Now Jesus.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: Is making a very interesting statement. The Bible says. And
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: in the last day. That great day of the feast.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: Jesus stood and cried.
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: And said.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: If any man thirst. Let him come unto me.
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: And drink. Verse 38.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: Verse 38. He that believeth on me, as the scripture
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: has written, out of his belly shall flow rivers of
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: living water. Shout verse 39 with all your heart if
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: you are a believer.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: Are you ready? One, two, go.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: But this he spake of the Spirit, which they that
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: believe on him should receive. Ah, so the river that
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: he was speaking about is not the river that you
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: have in Lagos. He's not just talking of water. Are
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: we together now? It was a metaphor. An introduction of
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: the ministry of the Holy Spirit. That there are different
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: dimensions to the operation of the Spirit. But when it
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: has to do with the ministry of life. The only
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: character that can relate to that operation of the Spirit
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: is called the river. Are we together now? This he
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: spake of the Holy Spirit. So the Holy Spirit is
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: a life-giving spirit. He is not just the custodian of
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: God's life. He is not just the administrator.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: Of the life.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: There is no ministry of life on earth that happens
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: outside of his participation. It is impossible to administer God's
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: life at any level in isolation to the Holy Spirit.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Whether life as healing, whether life as abundance, everything life
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: is his business. So if you are looking for anything
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: that has to do with life, the first person to.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: Go to is the Spirit of God.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: Jesus told us, listen carefully, that out of your belly
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: shall flow. but most believers do not even understand what
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: that statement is I know we sing it.
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: But if we understood the power.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: That was embedded in that revelation it will change our
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: lives the Holy Spirit is a life-changing giving spirit. The
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: Holy Spirit is a life giving spirit.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: Are we learning?
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit is a life giving spirit. That means
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: every business of administering life on earth resides in his office.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: If you are about to pray for the sick, It
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: is the Holy Spirit that makes that ministry happen possibly.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: If you speak abundance, whether prophetically or by educating the
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: minds of the people to be productive, he has to
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: be there for it to make sense. Anything that has
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: to do with administering the life.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: Of God, it is the Holy Spirit's office. It is
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: the Holy Spirit's business. The spirit of life.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: The Bible is full of his life-giving ministry. Let me
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: state this and then we'll pray. We'll continue tomorrow. Psalm
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: 1 verse 3. The ministry of fruitfulness is an expression
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: of his life. The Bible says, and he shall be
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: like a tree. We usually focus on the tree. But
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: we forget that the only reason why the tree produces
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: is because it is planted by the river. Any tree
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: planted by the river will be fruitful. It doesn't matter
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: the name of the tree. If it is in the
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: desert alone without the river, it will die. What gives
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: fruitfulness to the tree is not the tree, not the name,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: not the species. The fact that it does not have
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: to wait for any season. It has found a way
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: to be planted by the riverside. As a result, it
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: yields its fruits in season. And whose leaf does not wither.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: Do you know why leaves wither? They wither because it
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: is a way of conserving water during dry season. But
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: why will the leaves wither when it is planted by
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: the rivers? Is someone learning now? The ministry of fruitfulness
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: is part of that life. Jeremiah 17 verse 8.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: I hope we're learning. Jeremiah 17 verse 8. Let's read together. One, two, read.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: For he shall be as a tree, again, planted by
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: the water. So he's talking about Joshua Selman. And that
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: see heat when it comes.
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: This is a believer's reality.
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: He's selling you a template that there is such a
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: possibility in your walk with God. If you have eternal life,
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: you can choose by an act of understanding and obedience
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: to subscribe to this template of living. That during heat,
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: it does not affect you. And the secret is that
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: you have life. Not just that you are born again.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: You have received life. If I transfer 10 million naira
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: to your account. And people start shouting and saying. text
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: message is now costing 10 naira per text. In all
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: honesty will you complain?
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: No.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: Because I've given you something that immunes you. That reality
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: does not apply to you. If you relate with people
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: it's just for sympathy but as a person that reality
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: no longer exists.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: This is what the life of God does.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: When it comes certain realities you can relate out of
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: compassion but in terms of personal experience that life has
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: immune you from the presence of that. And it is
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: not just spiritual alone. This is what he is saying.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: He shall not see when heat comes. He will not
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: even be aware. But her lips shall be green. And
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: shall not be careful in the year of drought. Neither
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: shall cease from yielding fruit. When you see a fruitful believer.
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: When you see a fruitful ministry. When you see a
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: fruitful business. Every time you see consistent bearing of fruit.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: Make no mistakes. The spirit of life is behind it.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Power in an individual mysteriously but consistently when you see
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: a man of god fruitful with righteousness and the dignity
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: of kingdom integrity move beyond the salmons move beyond the
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: looks at the back of that result is the spirit
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: of life flowing like a river turn in every church
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: turn in every region turn in a man's life somebody
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: say in the name of jesus shout it come on
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: say in the name of jesus I am fruitful by
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: the spirit of life. I am fruitful by the spirit
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: of life. I am fruitful by the spirit of life.
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: Please sit down. Fruitfulness. Isaiah 32, 15. Until the spirit
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: be poured upon us from on high. And then the wilderness.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: Shall be counted for a fruitful vine. Here is another dimension.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: And a fruitful vine. Be counted for a forest. Until
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: the spirit. Like rain that now comes and flows. Be
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: poured upon us from on high.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah Isaiah chapter 41. I believe verse 18. Give it
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: to us. Restoration. The ministry of the spirit. Restoration by
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: the Spirit.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: It says, I will open rivers in high places and
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: fountains in the midst of valleys. I will make the
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: wilderness a pool of water and dry land springs of water.
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: The Spirit of God. You may have heard my teachings.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: To restore does not mean to move forward. Restoration is
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: different from progress. Restoration is to be carried by the
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: mercy of God. It's an operation of God's mercy that
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: brings a man into a reality. Whatever was the impedance
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: that stopped you lag in time, it brings you to
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: a point where based on your current result, we cannot
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: trace where the limitation happened from.
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: That is restoration. Are we together now? Yes.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: So if for 10 years, had you given birth immediately
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: after you got married, maybe you would have had a
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: child three, three years spacing. Now you are 10 years,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: you've been barren. If God gives you three plates, that's
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: not progress, that's restoration. Because he took 10 years and
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: brought it in nine months. Are we together now?
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: Restore.
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: Harandushki alabata. God can restore years. God can restore things.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: God can restore years. God can restore things. These are
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: his time redemption strategies. There are two ways that God
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: redeems time.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: One, to bring restoration. Two, to bring speed. And it
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: is all by the Spirit.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: And the hand of the Lord came upon Elijah and
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: he ran. He overtook the chariots of Ahab even down
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: to Jizreel. When the Spirit of God comes upon a man,
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: let me tell you the truth.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: Don't tempt me. Let's not go there. I came late.
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: I have to pay the price for coming late. Are
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: we together? I believe this, oh. Restoration. Who am I
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: speaking to? In the name of Jesus.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: That by this time tomorrow, by the power that raised
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: Christ from the dead, what has left your life, relationships
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: that have left your life, I stand by the rod
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: of the apostolic and the prophetic.
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: I command restoration. Restoration.
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: Restoration. Restoration. Restoration. By the Spirit of God.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: Restoration. Strategic relationships.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: Restoration. Oh, let the river flow. Let it bring restoration.
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: Let it flow to every aspect of your life. The
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: Bible says they are taken for a prey and none
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: say it restores.
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: Please be seated.
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: Isaiah 44 verse 3.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: The ministry of life.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: The spirit of God can give hope to the hopeless.
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: It is part of the ministry of life. Read with me.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: Don't be tired. You are in church. It's a camp meeting.
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: One to read.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: For I will pour water, not on everyone, on him
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: that is thirsty and floods Upon your dry ground. In
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: case you didn't understand what I said. This is what
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: it means. I will pour out my spirit upon your seed.
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: That every time he finds a thirsty soul. Do you
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: know what leads to thirst? A prolonged period of life.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: Of refreshing.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: And he said, when I find such a man, weary
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: because he's 10 years without a job, weary because you've
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: been confessing God's word and nothing is happening. God's remedy
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: for weariness is not counseling. Counseling is important, but he
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: introduces you to the ministry of life as the.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: Permanent cure to weariness. Do you believe this?
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: Weary in ministry. It looks like things are not working.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: Weary as a believer. Where your integrity does not seem
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: to be producing results. Weary like Job. Where men look
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: at you and nod their head. Weary because of the
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: vicissitudes of life. Let me tell you, when God comes
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: to a weary soul, he pours water. The spirit of God.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: He pours water. He floods your ground. He floods your life.
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: I taught what to give a weary soul is water
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: to drink. But this kind of weariness is not in
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: need of a drink. He needs to pour that water
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: upon you. Let me tell you the truth. You have
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: endured here, teaching after teaching. Many of you do not
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: know that whilst you are seated here, you are like
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: a plant that is withering. Nobody really knows, but you
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: are noticing that you are having to cut away some
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: of your leaves because life is telling on you. As
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: you are hearing me speak, that river is pouring upon you,
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: giving you life, giving you refreshing, giving you life. A
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: minister of the gospel came here weary, just saying, after
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: this conference, I will give up. I will finally pack up.
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you, when that river flows, there is
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: a refreshing. You can start again. There is a refreshing. Ah,
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: rejoice not over me, my enemies. In the name of
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, when the river flows, he said there is
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: hope for a tree, even if it be cut short
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: at the scent of water. Provided that liver gets to you,
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: you will pour the day.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: Who is like him?
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: Lion and the lamb seated on the throne. Mountains bow down,
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: every ocean roams.
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: To the king of kings.
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: We will praise Adonai. From the rising of the sun.
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: Till the end of every day.
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: Praise Adonai. Listen. Listen. Isaiah 66 verse 12.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: I don't know why God is ministering to me to
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: speak to someone. This is the dimension of life you
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: are in need of. You love Jesus, but your integrity
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: has not yielded fruit yet.
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: And you are literally about to give up.
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: You are taking up your lamentation. You have a personal
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: grievance with God. Because it looks like your holding on
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: to righteousness does not seem to pay off.
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: This is why he brought you to this conference.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: The Spirit of God is a life-giving Spirit.
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: The Holy Spirit ministers life. Another dimension of his life
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: is called peace. Yes, sir.
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: The peace of God beyond understanding. You sit in the
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: midst of fire and it's as if you cannot see it.
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: The Bible says, for thus saith the Lord, behold, I
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: will extend.
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: Peace to her like a river. Peace like a river.
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: That what made you cry yesterday does not make you
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: cry again. What threatened you yesterday does not threaten you.
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: I fear no evil. That ability has been lost. When
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit came like a river, he brought me peace.
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: He brought me peace. He brought me peace. He brought
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: me peace.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: Amos chapter 5 and verse 24. I'm describing for you
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: the various components and the facets of the Spirit. The
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: operations of the Holy Spirit scattered through Scripture. Righteousness and
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: justice is the final one I will give you now.
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: This is still life. The ministry of life involves administering
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: righteousness and justice. But let judgment run down as waters.
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: And righteousness as a mighty stream.
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: This is a spirit God.
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: He is able to bring justice that for 10 years
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: you have been confessing and it looks like it will
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: not come to pass. If God leaves you that way,
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: Based on his integrity, he can be charged for injustice.
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: So the Holy Spirit comes to your life.
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: That based on the integrity of God as revealed in scripture.
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: When a man believes him, certain results should follow him.
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: And he comes to find out why your life, in
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: spite of believing, has not answered on that wise. He
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: will met out justice. If there are enemies that are
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: stopping it, he will take care of them. The secret
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: of peace is justice. It's impossible to have peace indefinitely.
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: It took justice for God to find peace over man.
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: He shall see the travail of his soul and he
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: shall be satisfied. When someone steals from you, as they
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: jail the person you are comforted, that this guy who
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: troubled me for 10 years, now justice has been meted out.
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: So don't you think the Holy Spirit just comes. There
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: are dimensions of the river that you don't want to see.
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: When the Holy Spirit wants to met out justice. He
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: can become a river to you, calming you on one side.
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: But become a vicious flood. If you doubt this, ask Noah. Noah.
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: Two things happened at the same time.
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: That the ark of Noah was being elevated by that
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: same flood. But there were certain people mockers of the
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: integrity of God. While he built, they mocked him. And
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: when that river came, it saved one and drowned the other.
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: The Bible says the heavens gave their rain and the
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: earth released its own water. Whoever was in between was
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: because of disobedience. The ark was the only place of safety.
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: There are people who may seem to be stronger than
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: you right now. Stronger than you politically. Stronger than you
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: in terms of influence. But let me tell you the truth.
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: When the Spirit of God brings life, within that life
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: is a system for meting out righteousness and justice.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: You don't need to fight certain battles. No.
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: The Spirit of God is the administrator of his life.
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: That's the reason why when they mocked Jesus and laughed
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: at him, he kept quiet.
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: There is already a system. Believe me. When they laughed
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: at Job and mocked at Job, he kept quiet. It
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: was unnecessary.
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: The Bible says in Job 42 verse 10 that God
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: restored the captivity of Job.
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: He restored it. Are we together?
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: That someone took you out of your office because of righteousness.
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: You would not be corrupt. You would not compromise on
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: your stand as a believer. And now you are suffering
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: the penalty for integrity and righteousness.
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: Whoever told you.
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: That God is blind, that means you do not understand
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: the ministry of life. It may not be as soon
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: as you want, but surely... surely the spirit of life
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: will come and breathe over that situation. Let me find
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: out why this man was thrown from 2000 till 2024.
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: He's not gotten a job. Because of that unjust thing,
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: his child could not go to a good school. What
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: kind of justice do we bring for this man? God
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: can pick that child and bring him directly and a
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: billionaire will say, I want to train this child.
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: It's not breakthrough. It is justice.
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: You will have to study the story of Esau and Jacob.
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: I don't have time to show you how God makes
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: out justice. But this God you see is a just God.
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: Do not rejoice when sinners prevail. The justice of God,
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit himself is the compliance person as far
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: as God's program is concerned. So when people cut corners
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: and go away with it, you don't need to say, God,
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: are you not seeing? Part of the ministry of life
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: is to ensure, the Bible says that there will be
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: a distinguishing between those who fear God and those who
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: do not fear him. And I believe strongly that in
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: this prophetic season, God is going to be going around families, ministries,
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: your secret prayers, yet no financial helpers, your secret prayers,
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: you're preaching with integrity and it looks like visibility is
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: not coming when life is meted out as justice you
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: will be surprised that out of nowhere supposedly God.
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: Lifts you and gives you strange visibility.
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: Men will say you just appeared but it is God
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: showing that righteousness and justice are the foundations of his
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: throne Please stand to your feet. Please stand to your feet.
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: We have to end here for now. Tomorrow, we'll be
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: going to the book of Revelations. Don't miss tomorrow.
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: That there is a river that flows from the throne
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: of God.
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: And that from that river, There is a mandate upon
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: the trees that grow as a result of their encounter
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: with that river.
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: The mandate is for the healing of the nations.
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: Then you will understand what Jesus meant when he said,
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: out of your belly.
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: It is an instruction that out of your belly.
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: So the Holy Spirit comes and there is an inner
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: work he does in you. But when he's done with
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: that inner work, Then he needs to flow through you.
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: Even to the nations. That the leaves from those trees.
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: On account of the encounter with that river. The leaves
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: become useful. And they are for the healing of the nations.
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: When you have this revelation. He can send you to nations.
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: You are like a balm. Not just in Gilead. You
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: can be a balm in Europe. You can be a
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: balm in America. You can be a balm in Lagos.
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: You can be a balm in Abuja. Because you are
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: moving like the leaf. That has encountered that river. And
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: you bring healing to nations. Fulfilling the scripture. Genesis 12
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: verse 3.
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: And in thee shall all the families of the earth.
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: Be blessed.
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: Can we pray? For the remaining nine minutes I see
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: that we have. That means we are going to pray seriously.
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: And ask the Lord. That by his spirit. Activate the
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: ministry of life.
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: From within my spirit.
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: I'm tired of just being a bearer of the name believer.
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: If it is true that the spirit of God is
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: called the spirit of life. And he is the custodian
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: and the administrator of that life.
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: Then I engage my faith. Go ahead and pray.
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: Life. Life.
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: Life. Translating as healing.
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: Healing.
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: Life. Translating as speed. Life. Come on pray.
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: Translating as new levels. Someone pray. Someone pray. Someone pray.
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: Someone pray.
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: Genesis 121. I feel tempted to introduce this. There are
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: two dimensions of the life-giving ministry of the Holy Spirit
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: that he wants his people to enjoy. This is a
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: prophetic reality that God is doing. The Holy Spirit will
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: still carry out all his life-giving functions, but there are
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: two that are important for this season. Number one, the
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: ministry of abundance. Number two, the ministry of healing. I
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: just showed you one in Revelation. But let me show
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: you one in Genesis. And God created great whales.
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: And every living creature that moved it. Help me.
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: Which the water brought forth abundantly. Where did it come
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: out from?
• 54:01
  Speaker 2: The water.
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: Strange business ideas from the water. Great whales that ruled
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: the territory of the sea.
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: The water.
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: Water can bring forth abundantly. I'm not just talking of
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: your sea, your river. That a man can engage with
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: the spirit like an intercourse. And what you come out
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: with is a transgenerational idea. A man can go to
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: the spirit and come out with a healing anointing. That
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: will serve nations for the rest of your life without depletion.
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: And God created great whales. And every living creature that moved.
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: God created it. But the transportation system. It came out
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: of the water. So when the water is flowing to you.
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: Don't just look at a river. There are things embedded.
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: You intercourse with that water. And something begins to come
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: out of your life. That you did not have before.
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: As a man of God you drink from the spirit.
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: And you come up with fresh prophetic grace. Fresh apostolic power.
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: Dimensions of grace. But he said abundance. Listen.
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: You know what abundance is? Abundance is beyond money. Abundance
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: is sufficiency. The ability to rise to the occasion. Never wanting.
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: And God is able to make all grace abound towards
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: you so that ye shall Having all sufficiency.
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: Sufficiency in terms of relationships. Abundance.
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: Sufficiency in terms of access to systems and structures.
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: Abundance.
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: Sufficiency in terms of the loyalty of men. For it
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: is in the multitude of men that the king's honor lies.
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: So when we talk of sufficiency, we are not just
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: talking money. Everything that puts you in a vantage position
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: is called abundance. Let's pray that prayer. Father, in the
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: name that is above all names, let my interaction with
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit as a river, let it yield forth abundance.
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: Let it yield forth abundance. Let it yield forth abundance.
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: Abundance to my spiritual stature. Abundance in my finances. Abundance
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: in ministry. Someone pray. Go ahead and pray. Go ahead
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: and pray.
