The Power of Prophetic Intercession by Apostle Joshua Selman · Selah Media House

• 0:00
  When I went to preach for Archbishop Duncan Williams, I
• 0:06
  had an opportunity to go to their prayer mountain where they
• 0:10
  are building as a platform to intercede for the nations.
• 0:15
  And when I got there, I had the opportunity to teach and pray
• 0:22
  with his major personal intercessors.
• 0:26
  My goodness, you think you can pray you meet those guys.
• 0:32
  Believe me when I tell you no, no, no, no, no, no, no when when
• 0:39
  those you will know that those guys were that's their life for
• 0:46
  intercessors. They are just giving the burden
• 0:51
  over nations. God can say now Congo, all they
• 0:55
  need to do is to drop the prayer request in the middle of them
• 0:58
  and they will pieces it like you are slicing fish.
• 1:02
  You just hear that someone is dying, someone else is rising.
• 1:06
  There is a control room in the spirit.
• 1:09
  Can I tell you this, ladies and gentlemen, Nigeria is not as bad
• 1:12
  as it is is a reflection of the absence of strategic
• 1:16
  intercessors. You want to command salvation
• 1:22
  over territories. Let's start with Abuja.
• 1:25
  Start with your region. Raise men and women by the
• 1:29
  Spirit who understand prayer, not blind prayer of dissipating
• 1:33
  energy that does not produce result.
• 1:35
  That's not intercession. Strategic prayer with
• 1:39
  understanding. Bring forth your strong reason.
• 1:42
  Say at the Lord Shanna Katoskiyata over this territory.
• 1:47
  You write the names of your family members 1 by 1, and you
• 1:52
  wake up every night. You are praying Lord salvation,
• 1:56
  Lord healing, Lord restoration, Lord deliverance.
• 2:04
  He speak a parable to the end that men ought always to pray
• 2:10
  and not to faint. Can I tell you this?
• 2:13
  There are certain levels of power and grace I have seen in
• 2:17
  my life. It did not come by asking
• 2:19
  directly. It came as a product of standing
• 2:24
  in the place of prayer for people.
• 2:27
  There are covenants that I have with God today that came at the
• 2:32
  instance of certain levels of intercession.
• 2:38
  There are things God will never tell you in the open.
• 2:41
  You will have to become an intercessor.
• 2:44
  Pastors, pray for your members. Don't just speak over them.
• 2:49
  Can I tell you, Kononia, hear me, you are spiritual people.
• 2:53
  Go and ask God the degree to which I pray for you.
• 2:56
  Don't think my preaching here is the end of the ministry.
• 2:59
  What you see me do on the pulpit is only 30% of my ministry to
• 3:04
  you. My real assignment to you and my
• 3:07
  my real ministry to you, aside from teaching you the Word of
• 3:10
  God, is to pray while you are sleeping.
• 3:14
  Know that there is somebody awake for your sake praying.
• 3:17
  I'm crying on to God. Don't think I'm a politician
• 3:20
  doing some manifesto here. Lord touch my people.
• 3:26
  Lord change their lives. Sometimes you send me text
• 3:30
  messages and I don't reply. You don't be angry.
• 3:33
  Just because I did not reply you, it does not mean I did not
• 3:36
  pray about it. There are times I just dropped
• 3:39
  the phone there because I can't reply everything and I lie down
• 3:44
  before my maker and I said, Lord, you sent me, let these
• 3:49
  people not have shame and reproach.
• 3:51
  When I sit down here and hear certain testimonies, praise the
• 3:54
  Lord, this one just happened. I just sit quietly as if I don't
• 3:57
  know anything about it or make no mistakes.
• 4:00
  Ladies and gentlemen, this man you see by the privilege of
• 4:04
  God's grace, and I do not say to boast.
• 4:06
  If you have never believed that anybody prays for you, believe
• 4:10
  it today. Believe it today, believe it
• 4:18
  today. That is why you see, as a man of
• 4:23
  God, when you have time for everything, is a sign that
• 4:26
  something is wrong with your ministry.
• 4:30
  Are we together? Yes, everything you have time to
• 4:33
  go for every occasion you are at wedding in the morning, bed in
• 4:38
  the afternoon, some Thanksgiving in the evening.
• 4:41
  Well, what prayer is not something that you do in a rush.
• 4:46
  There are times that it takes 2 hours to just say thank you,
• 4:50
  thank you 2 hours thank you Jesus and your dear lying down
• 4:58
  and an atmosphere of worship like this.
• 5:01
  Your eyes sleepy but you remember that you love the
• 5:03
  people you are sent to. Can I tell you this?
• 5:06
  A Good Shepherd lays down his life.
• 5:09
  God will not trust you with members just because you want
• 5:12
  it. It must show in your heart.
• 5:15
  I speak respectfully to servants of God listening.
• 5:19
  Forget about all these wanting people to just give you seed.
• 5:23
  You are now so abet the one year in, in in in what they call it
• 5:27
  one year in advance. Settle down and do what God
• 5:31
  called you to do. The members are not stupid when
• 5:34
  God blesses them through you, they know what to do to you.
• 5:38
  Can I tell you this demanding money from members is wrong?
• 5:42
  Like to say come and give me money.
• 5:43
  That's not your assignment. They didn't call you.
• 5:46
  You bless them and pray for them and let God direct them and they
• 5:50
  will surprise you. Members are not greedy.
• 5:53
  Just do your work. Go and ask him.
• 6:01
  I don't just love Koinonia, I love you.
• 6:05
  You are Koinonia.
