0:03
Speaker 1: Allelujah, Praise the Lord, Ghanna, praise the name of the Lord.
0:13
Speaker 2: A man.
0:15
Speaker 1: While standing very quickly, I wanted to help me honor
0:18
this very great and humble man of God and is
0:21
their wife.
0:22
Speaker 2: Bishop as Sarah, thank you, thank you so very much.
0:27
Speaker 1: Paston Nathaniel spoke so truthfully about him. We have been
0:32
graciously honored from the time that we arrived here, and
0:38
on behalf of Jesus himself, who was granted the grace.
0:42
I want to say thank you, thank you, allelujah. Second,
0:50
like personat also observed, our time is first spent, and
0:54
I don't intend to keep us more than necessary. So
0:58
we just introduce that which were doing tonight, and then
1:01
we'll hope and trust that tomorrow will have an extended time.
1:04
Speaker 2: Will that be fine? Hallelujah.
1:11
Speaker 1: But then that does not mean that God is not
1:16
in a hurry to change your life. That does not
1:19
mean that you have to work out of this place
1:23
tonight the way you came. That does not mean that
1:27
the mantle God desire to rest upon your life. Listen,
1:32
Bishop said something before I came up. He said, one
1:36
word from the Lord can truly change your life. We
1:40
have a few minutes, but may I request your dedicated
1:43
attention so that the Lord would do us good tonight.
1:47
Can we lift our hands together in one minute and
1:50
call upon the God of Heaven to give us an
1:54
encounter tonight. Please go ahead, Father, help us tonight. Let
2:09
your world come with power and Jesus name, I pray.
2:31
Speaker 2: Amen. Please be seated now, God bless you. Thank you
2:38
very much.
2:38
Speaker 1: Now, let me please request that you are very sensitive,
2:43
whether you're an usher or not, if someone is on
2:46
that you're anointing, or if I do request that you
2:48
bring those on that you're anointing out, please do help
2:52
so that would conserve time.
2:54
Speaker 2: Allelujah.
2:55
Speaker 1: The ministry of the Spirit is such that no matter
3:00
how brief the time, he must be given the liberty
3:03
that he desires to bless, to lift, to change.
3:08
Speaker 2: Allelujah.
3:10
Speaker 1: The Bible says, now the Lord is that spirit, and
3:14
where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
3:17
And then he says, we all with unveiled face beholding
3:21
him as in a mirror. He says, we are changed
3:25
from one dimension of glory to the other, even as
3:29
by the Spirit of God. So whilst you are seated
3:32
hearing the word, it is more than.
3:35
Speaker 2: Just your attention. You are giving God.
3:38
Speaker 1: You are handing over your life and destiny to him
3:42
so that he will change, so that he will lift,
3:45
so that he will redirect. The assignment of the anointing
3:49
that comes to the world is to check every aspect
3:54
of your life and correct anything that is inconsistent with
3:59
the counsel of God. So whilst the world is coming,
4:02
it is important for you to understand what God is
4:06
doing behind the scenes. So some of you will get
4:08
up after this world and find out that that disease
4:12
and that symptom is gone and gone for good. Allelujah
4:17
for some of you. Whilst you are here hearing the word,
4:20
the makeer of the heavens and the earth is releasing
4:23
angels to your homes, to your business, is correcting things.
4:29
Speaker 2: Do you believe that.
4:32
Speaker 1: Allelujah? Prays the name of the Lord.
4:39
Speaker 2: Very brief?
4:40
Speaker 1: Proverabs Twenty three twenty three Proverabs twenty three, verse twenty three.
4:48
I'm going to be charging our hearts tonight on a
4:51
topic that I am captioned by the truth. By the truth,
5:02
the Bible says in twenty three and twenty three of Proverbs.
5:05
It says, by the truth and sell it not not
5:11
only that is that King James, if we can have KJV.
5:16
Speaker 2: He says, to by the truth and then to sell it?
5:20
Speaker 1: Not, he said, and also wisdom, instruction and understanding dominion
5:28
in this kingdom. And any destiny that desires a performance advancement,
5:38
and any destiny that desires to see the fullness of
5:41
the life and the power of God find expression through it,
5:46
must understand the power of truth and a luyah.
5:52
Speaker 2: The Bible here gives us a very powerful instruction.
5:55
Speaker 1: He says, by the truth, and then he says, under
6:01
no circumstance should you sell it. To sell it means
6:05
to pathways with it. When you sell it thing, it
6:08
means that you value what you are receiving more than
6:11
what you are giving. Are we together now now, please
6:15
pay attention Jesus. In Matthew chapter thirteen, please give it
6:19
to us. Verse forty four gave us a very powerful parable.
6:24
Matthew the thirteenth chapter and verse forty four were reading
6:28
to forty six. He said again, the Kingdom of Heaven
6:34
is like onto treasure hid in a field. It's treasure,
6:40
but it was hid in a field. Then the Bible
6:43
says the which when a man had found he hide it,
6:51
and for joy that he going thereof go it and
6:56
sell it all that he had and buyed the field.
6:59
Look at the kind of a man the Bible says
7:03
there was treasure that was hidden in the field. Were
7:06
reading down to forty six, and then the Bible says
7:10
that man stumbled across a treasure, and for the joy
7:15
that he had nothing else in his life mattered, he
7:19
went and sold everything to buy the field that contained
7:23
that treasure. Let's read to forty six, now forty five again.
7:30
The kingdom of Heaven is like onto a merchantman seeking
7:34
goodly pearls Uh huh, he says, who, when he had
7:39
found a pearl of great price, went and.
7:44
Speaker 2: Sold all that he had and bought it.
7:47
Speaker 1: What is so valuable about this treasure that these people
7:52
are willing to sell every other thing they had to
7:55
buy it, he says, by the truth, and sell it not.
8:02
Speaker 2: Listen, ladies and gentlemen.
8:05
Speaker 1: The reason why certain destinies seem to excel you find
8:10
out that God seems to do business with certain people
8:14
to a degree on proportion that is very very very
8:20
worthy of admiration, is not because God decided to isolate
8:25
a few people and then to victimize others.
8:29
Speaker 2: The fact or that distinguishes.
8:31
Speaker 1: Men in this kingdom is the degree to which they
8:35
have access to this truth, this treasure that the Bible
8:40
calls truth. Please pay attention. Dominion in this kingdom is
8:45
not an importation. Dominion in this kingdom is the resultant
8:50
effect of the value that an individual has placed towards
8:55
his pursuit for truth. Are we together now? But which
9:00
will distinguish two people to past us, two men of God,
9:05
to business people, Any two people are distinguished in life
9:10
and destiny to the degree to which they pursue and
9:15
they sick truth? Here, the Bible says, by the truth. Now,
9:21
I thought scripture would say get the truth. It never
9:26
said get the truth.
9:29
Speaker 2: It did not.
9:29
Speaker 1: Even say sick the truth. It uses a business time, knowology.
9:34
When it has to do with truth, he says, by
9:38
the truth.
9:42
Speaker 2: Are we together?
9:43
Speaker 1: When it has to do with wisdom, he says, get wisdom.
9:47
Speaker 2: When it has to do with other things, you would
9:49
say sick.
9:50
Speaker 1: But now when it has to do with truth, he says,
9:54
don't you come around the vicinity of truth.
9:56
Speaker 2: Without something in your hands.
9:58
Speaker 1: In other words, the pursuit for truth will cost you.
10:02
You must be you must be ready to know that.
10:05
When it has to do with accessing truth, it is
10:09
based on the law of exchange, not the law of pursuit.
10:13
Speaker 2: Listen carefully.
10:15
Speaker 1: When it has to do with accessing the truth, it
10:19
does not come at the instance.
10:21
Speaker 2: Of your seeking it alone.
10:23
Speaker 1: It is a product of exchange by the Truth and
10:29
Jesus in the two parables, that he gave every one
10:32
of those people. The Bible says, when they found treasure
10:35
or they found perils, they went and sold everything they had.
10:40
So don't ask where the money will come from. That
10:43
parable told us where the money came from. The money
10:46
came by prioritizing the truth above what you already had.
10:55
Everyone who bought that field did not have the money,
10:58
but because they had the hunger and the passion, they
11:02
were able to bring that money from something else.
11:05
Speaker 2: They had buy the truth and sell it.
11:09
Speaker 1: Not everyone you see who has risen in this kingdom
11:14
by the privilege of God's grace must be a man
11:18
or woman who has placed value on the truth more
11:22
than anything else. The receipt for buying the truth is
11:28
a life of exploits. Listen, when you buy an electronic product,
11:33
they sign and they give you a receipt. They don't
11:36
give you a receipt over what you are buying. They
11:38
give you a receipt over what you have bought. When
11:41
you carry that receipt, sometimes they may not even allow
11:45
you go out of the all until you present the receipt.
11:47
Speaker 2: Is that true?
11:48
Speaker 1: So the Bible says, by the truth, don't tell me
11:52
you have truth, Show me the receipt. The life of exploits,
11:58
the supernatural life, the invincible life, is the receipt that
12:05
you have bought the truth. Because the Bible says, my son,
12:09
he says, pay attention to my words. It says, incline
12:12
your ears to my sayings. Do not let them depart
12:16
from out of thy mouth. It says, keep them in
12:18
the midst of your heart. Then it says they are life,
12:21
not to everybody, to those who.
12:23
Speaker 2: Find them, and health to their flesh.
12:26
Speaker 1: According to Scripture, we know that truth only resides in
12:31
the world.
12:34
Speaker 2: The word of God.
12:35
Speaker 1: Is the exclusive compendium of truth.
12:39
Speaker 2: There is no other institution, no other.
12:42
Speaker 1: Material that sustains the rich capture of truth. Aside from Scripture,
12:48
it says, sanctify them by thy truth.
12:51
Speaker 2: Thy word is truth. It's someone learning.
12:55
Speaker 1: Now there are many believers who are bitraal desire to
13:01
live a life of kingdom, exploits a life that brings
13:05
glory and honor to God and brings glory and honor
13:09
to them, And then they ignore and neglect truth. Then
13:14
they get angry, envious, and jealous. Are those who have
13:18
invested their.
13:19
Speaker 2: Life exchanging for truth.
13:25
Speaker 1: My assignment tonight is to provoke your spiritual appetite. Are
13:30
way together to exhaust your passion for the things of
13:33
the spirit, and your pursuit for truth above and beyond.
13:36
Speaker 2: Any mundane pursuit.
13:38
Speaker 1: If in the next ten minutes or thereabout I'm able
13:41
to succeed in that, then we have done a good
13:43
job tonight.
13:46
Speaker 2: By the truth and sell it. Not Why do you
13:55
need the truth?
13:56
Speaker 1: John Chapter eight and verse thirty two. Chapter eight, What
14:01
is capturing truth? Why is it so expensive? And why
14:05
is it so important? Here? What the Bible has to
14:08
say about the truth? Please give it to us John
14:11
eight thirty two. It says, and ye shall know the truth,
14:16
and the truth shall set you free. Do you know
14:21
what that means? I shall know this police officer, and
14:25
the police officer will open the door of the prison
14:27
for me away. Together, So midwife in my bondage and
14:33
my liberty is that individual. In this case, it says,
14:36
if you build a relationship with the truth, the truth
14:41
has the power to influence your freedom. Listen cheerfully. That
14:47
means without the truth, you are in bondage. You do
14:51
not know the extent of bondage you are in until
14:54
the truth arrives. There are many people who are in
14:58
so much bondage they are not even aware. It is
15:00
the truth that reveals by the liberty it brings.
15:06
Speaker 2: Is someone learning now.
15:09
Speaker 1: The truth sustains the ability to bring freedom. Freedom means
15:15
a life that is not impeded by any factor. Freedom
15:20
means the liberty to be able to rise to the
15:24
fullness of your prophetic potential, financial freedom, spiritual freedom. Are
15:31
we together freedom in terms of your influence, your purpose,
15:35
and your destiny. Ye shall know the truth, and the
15:41
truth shall set you free. So we have established that
15:46
the truth works on the law of exchange. You are
15:49
not going to come and just pursue the truth arbitteraryly.
15:53
You must be willing to trade off certain things in
15:57
your life.
15:58
Speaker 2: Hallelujah. The concept of buying, as.
16:03
Speaker 1: Far as our economist concerned, demands that you must have currency.
16:08
Speaker 2: Is that true?
16:10
Speaker 1: Yes, if you tell me you're going to buy a
16:14
bottle of water, I know how serious you are by
16:18
very fine, whether you are holding currency, money, are we together,
16:22
or whatever it is that you will use to purchase.
16:25
So if you stand in front of the shop or
16:28
the store or the mall, all you need to do.
16:31
You may not even need to introduce yourself and tell
16:34
them your name. Just bring the currency to the decree
16:37
needed and the product to be given to you. Hallelujah.
16:42
Is someone learning very quickly for the sake.
16:46
Speaker 2: Of our time, I want to review five currencies.
16:50
Speaker 1: There are five spiritual currencies that we use to buy
16:56
the truth.
16:58
Speaker 2: Anyone who lacks.
16:59
Speaker 1: This and see will never be able to become the
17:02
custodian and the steward of truth. And that means your
17:07
life will remain impleated and will remain limited.
17:10
Speaker 2: If you're with me, say amen.
17:14
Speaker 1: When the Bible says by the truth, it then means
17:19
you have to know how to generate the kind of
17:22
currency that is used to purchase this great treasure that.
17:27
Speaker 2: The Bible calls truth. Number one very quickly.
17:40
Speaker 1: The first currency that is used to buy truth is called.
17:46
Speaker 2: Hunger and desire.
17:47
Speaker 1: Write it down, Liz, you will never be able to
17:51
buy the truth if you cannot generate this currency of
17:56
genuine hunger and desire.
18:01
Speaker 2: Proverbs, Chapter four, from verse five to nine.
18:04
Speaker 1: It's God helping us already Proverbs four five to nine,
18:10
four five to nine. Get wisdom, it says, get understanding.
18:16
It says, forget it not, neither decline from the words
18:20
of my mouth. We're reading to nine.
18:22
Speaker 2: Verse six.
18:23
Speaker 1: Now it says, forsake not, and she shall preserve THEE.
18:28
Love her, and she shall keep THEE. Verse seven it says,
18:32
wisdom is the principle. And therefore get wisdom, and with
18:36
all thy getting, get understanding. I love Verse eight, watch
18:40
this its exalt her, and she shall promote THEE. She
18:44
shall bring THEE to honor when thou dost embrace her.
18:48
Verse nine it says, she shall give to thy head
18:52
an ornament of grace, a crown of glory. Shall she deliver.
18:56
But you must demonstrate desire desire Prohabs eighteen and verse one.
19:02
He says, through desire, a man haven't separated himself.
19:07
Speaker 2: Sick, caret and interct lith with all.
19:10
Speaker 1: Wisdom the currency of hunger. Men who find God men
19:16
who find truth, men who find the word that builds
19:20
their lives and turns them into signs and wonders. Are
19:24
people of hunger and pursuit. Someone say, hunger, said desire.
19:30
When you come into the faith life and your desire
19:34
is passive anyhow, if God comes, let him come. If
19:38
God blesses me, let him bless me, you will never
19:41
find truth.
19:49
Speaker 2: I went together desire, hunger.
19:54
Speaker 1: Go and ask every great man who is used by
19:57
God today, including.
19:58
Speaker 2: Your father and the Lord the bish job.
20:00
Speaker 1: They will tell you that the truths that have exhalted
20:03
them today came at the instance of this currency of
20:08
hunger and desire.
20:12
Speaker 3: Show us, shaper, Will you lead us along eternal highway?
20:22
We want to fall out the way serve cheeses.
20:27
Speaker 2: We want to and your rest. Will you cho us
20:33
the shper?
20:37
Speaker 3: Will you leaders along eternal highway? We want to fall
20:44
all the food steps of cheeses.
20:48
Speaker 1: We want to and your roost man of God. You
20:54
will never find power till there is hunger. Hunger that
20:58
is greater than your ego, Hunger that is greater than
21:02
the desire to satisfy the flesh.
21:04
Speaker 2: Business Man, you will never.
21:05
Speaker 1: Be trusted with the grace to rise to the point
21:09
of kingdom influence until there is hunger and desire. The
21:13
Bible says in Jeremiah chapter twenty nine and verse thirteen,
21:17
it says, and you shall seek me and find me.
21:22
Speaker 2: If and when you seek me with all your heart.
21:30
Is someone learning tonight the currency of hunger the currency
21:39
of desire.
21:41
Speaker 1: Matthew chapter seven, from verse seven and eight, it says,
21:44
us Jesus is speaking. It's in law, as can you
21:48
shall receive, it says, sick, and you shall find, knock,
21:52
and the doors shall be open onto you.
21:55
Speaker 2: It says for every one.
21:58
Speaker 1: There are some blessings that may be for priests, for
22:00
men of God. There are some blessings that may be
22:03
for a few people other tribes. But this one is
22:06
for everyone, for everyone that has keet receiver. It is
22:10
that true, it says, to everyone who seeks.
22:14
Speaker 2: He shall find, and he that not kept the doors
22:17
shall be open. You are ware.
22:19
Speaker 1: You are because you are not hungry and desirous enough
22:22
to go to the next level. Believe me when I
22:26
tell you are at the level of the anointing. You
22:29
are at the level of the prophetic. You are at
22:31
the level of your kingdom exploits because there is no desire.
22:36
There is something called labor. When a woman is pregnant,
22:39
are we together now? Labor is when the baby gets
22:42
tired and says, my season has come to an end
22:45
inside that womb.
22:46
Speaker 2: I need a change of state and a change of environment.
22:49
Speaker 1: And the baby begins to mount pressure on the mother
22:53
and by an act of delivery, sometimes the desperation of
22:57
that child is so strong she may not be able
23:00
to deliver normally. And the doctors who have to bring
23:04
in another way board by all means that baby comes out.
23:09
It says as soon as zion travails that she's able
23:13
to put forth this so on, Listen, most of us
23:16
here do not know.
23:17
Speaker 2: That hunger and desire accurrencies.
23:22
Speaker 1: Biologically. Hunger is a sign of health. The first thing
23:26
you lose when you are sick is your appetite.
23:30
Speaker 2: Is that true?
23:33
Speaker 1: So the moment you lose your spiritual hunger is already
23:37
a is a clear biblical index.
23:40
Speaker 2: That something is happening to your spiritual life.
23:43
Speaker 1: Something is there is an attack on your destiny and
23:46
your life. The momental hunger drives for greater level of levels.
23:52
Speaker 2: Of God's glory. It means you're not ready to go
23:56
far with God. Hunger.
23:59
Speaker 1: Those who are champions are known by the insistence of
24:03
their desire away together and by the level and the
24:08
extent of their hunger. There are people who get so
24:16
hungry when they go to the kitchen. They don't have
24:19
time to check the color of the plate. All they
24:21
want to see is their food. And they are so
24:24
determined the hunger can coordinate their focus. They will not
24:28
focus on any of that thing until the food arrives.
24:31
The samiself was that deer pans after the water brooke?
24:34
It says, so, my soul longs after you. Someone learning
24:42
mm hmm. The presence of God is free, but is
24:47
not sheep. The power of God is free, but is
24:53
not sheep. The glory of God is free, but is
24:58
not sheep. There is a price to pay. The price
25:04
is not physical money that is too mundane for spiritual things.
25:09
Speaker 3: O God, you are the first. You are the street,
25:21
You are the hard believe. Indeed, inside of me you
25:29
are the food.
25:33
Speaker 2: That side is facts. You are provie for the journey
25:42
of my life. You are everything until you.
25:51
Speaker 1: Get to this state in the spirit, forget about business
25:54
with God.
25:55
Speaker 3: You are revery.
26:03
Speaker 2: Listen.
26:06
Speaker 1: The jealousy of God demands that He becomes your exclusive obsession.
26:12
If at any point in your Christian experience there is
26:16
any other thing that mean that's his way to become
26:20
a priority, or that than God and his purposes, you
26:24
have abort your.
26:25
Speaker 2: Potential for encounter with God.
26:28
Speaker 1: The jealousy of God will vet your desire until God
26:33
and the things of the Spirit become your ultimate obsession.
26:38
I will tell you why many people do not encounter God.
26:42
They have all kinds of passive desires. They have desire
26:46
for fame, for money, for gold, to be a celebrity.
26:50
Then God is somewhere smuggled in the equation. No, sir,
26:54
you don't do business with God that way. As Jacob,
26:58
until he dismissed his wives, he dismisses cattle. The Bible says,
27:02
when he was alone, for as long as they were,
27:06
all the luggage is with him. When he was alone,
27:13
then he came, He said, leave me for the day breaketh.
27:17
Speaker 2: And Jacob said, I will not let you go unless
27:19
you bless me. He said, what is your name? He said,
27:23
I am Jacob.
27:24
Speaker 1: Thou shall no longer be called Jacob, for as a
27:27
pringce you have had power with God, and you have prevailed.
27:30
Speaker 2: And the Bible says.
27:31
Speaker 1: He touched the whole of his tie and bless him.
27:35
The sun arose, and he called that place penny l
27:38
He said, for I have seen God face to face.
27:41
Speaker 2: And my life is preserved. Can I hear me? Pressures
27:46
people of God?
27:47
Speaker 1: If you desire more of God, it does not come
27:51
just by admiring those God is using. There must be
27:54
a hunger that is generated in your heart. You want
27:58
your songs to go to the nation. Is more than
28:01
just composing a song ah ah. The fuel for your influence.
28:06
The fuil for your impact is hunger, desire for God,
28:14
desire that drives you to first, desire that drives you
28:18
to a retreat, desire that drives you towards consecration. Currency
28:23
number one, you buy the truth with hunger and desire.
28:29
Number two for the sake of time, someone learning tonight.
28:38
Currency number two for buying the truth is the currency
28:42
of meekness and humility. Pay attention tonight, ladies and gentlemen,
28:50
Please help to people who will shout now under your naughteen.
28:52
I just saw the power of God. We're going to
28:55
be praying for people, hopefully within my time is already gone.
28:58
But I just saw two people as I mentioned this,
29:01
meekness and humility.
29:03
Speaker 2: I just saw light.
29:04
Speaker 1: Please when you identify them, just you don't have to
29:06
bring them out or just hold them right now. It's
29:09
happening right now to people. Meekness and humility. Meekness and humility,
29:27
help someone who will get up now and begin to
29:29
run by the anointing. Just hold them like literally, the
29:33
power of God will pick them. This is the ministry
29:39
of the spirit. Don't lose focus over what we're discussing.
29:43
I'm just responding to the impulses of the spirit. The
29:46
Bible says we are able ministers of the spirit.
29:53
Speaker 2: Let me have your attention.
29:54
Speaker 1: Please, Currency number two meekness and humility.
30:00
Speaker 2: Help the lady outside who shouts.
30:03
Speaker 1: The power of God is coming on a lady outside
30:05
this road by my left, outside right now. First Corinthians,
30:14
chapter eight. Please, First Corinthians, Chapter eight and verse two.
30:19
Pride has been the undoing of many potential champions.
30:25
Speaker 2: Please give it to us.
30:26
Speaker 1: Media, let's work together, it says. And if any man
30:30
think that he knows anything, it says he knows nothing,
30:36
as he ought to know. The more I know you
30:43
the more I want to.
30:44
Speaker 4: Know him, Jesus, more of you. The more I see
30:54
your face, the more I want to see you, Jesus.
31:02
Speaker 1: Mom humility and meekness, it says. Let any man who
31:12
thinks he knows you can already see the limitation that
31:18
men place upon their lives by the pride and the
31:22
arrow gans that follows them.
31:23
Speaker 2: Over little.
31:27
Speaker 1: Little prophecy, little sign and wonder little miracle lead to
31:32
financial prosperity.
31:35
Speaker 2: It is in the character of God to test.
31:37
Speaker 1: You with little of what he wants to give you
31:40
much of, and wa'ts your reaction? Can I tell you
31:45
everything God gives you the first time is never the
31:48
level he intends to give. If God trusts you with
31:53
a grace for the prophetic, that is only a test.
31:55
I assure you there is a greater level. But He
31:58
will watch for the currency of humility. Raso Brandy Cash
32:05
called Brasca m braduciata, shali graduciata. I just said the prophetic,
32:11
and I just so an eagle made that grace. Rest
32:14
right now, Schaligadesia, I've seen the number seven, that grace
32:20
for the prophetic. Parekhato siata Rakakaikato saprediata lad your dear
32:28
quickening in your spirit. Man. Right now, I decree declares
32:32
seven that number new streams of the prophetic spring up.
32:37
Speaker 2: What where else in the name of.
32:39
Speaker 1: Jesus, the son of the Little God, help them please
32:43
listen now say now, humility and meekness. We have to
32:57
find somewhere to pray. James, chapter and verse twenty one.
33:01
Let's take it high for me one twenty one James
33:07
Rasho Brandiger's school Sa priyagaducia lata. The Bible says, wherefore
33:14
lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness.
33:19
Speaker 2: And received with meekness.
33:24
Speaker 1: Meekness that means I do not know enough, no matter
33:28
how great you are using me. Oh God, there is more,
33:31
no matter the revelation I know, there is more. The
33:35
Bible says that states itself is current in the spirit.
33:41
Many creatures have bagged their growth because of the arrow
33:44
gans of little results. Many businessmen, especially in Africa, are
33:50
leble to rise when people come to charge there listening.
33:53
Let me hear if I can gain one or two things,
33:56
whereas there is absolutely nothing working.
33:58
Speaker 2: In their life.
34:02
Speaker 1: By the truth with the currency of meekness. Every time
34:10
I go to God, I don't approach him as a
34:11
man of God.
34:12
Speaker 2: I go with humility.
34:14
Speaker 1: Lord, thank you for what you have shown me. Oh,
34:16
but there are virtain dimensions in the spirit that I
34:19
have not seen. And while the world is clapping for
34:22
you and calling you all those names, you acknowledge sincerely,
34:26
but you know someone hearing someone will after this conference
34:35
need to go for a personal retreat.
34:37
Speaker 2: Unlock yourself and repent from pride. Repent from pride. Lord,
34:44
bring me to a point of humility.
34:47
Speaker 1: Let any man that thinks he knoweth know that he
34:51
does not know as he ought to. I will always
34:55
give this example. In a grading system, there are many
35:01
intelligent people and learned people here in a grading system
35:05
of abcd F. If a student gets two percent, and
35:14
a student gets another student gets ten percent, and another
35:18
student gets thirty five percent, and another student gets thirty
35:23
nine percent.
35:23
Speaker 2: Who was the highest thirty nine percent?
35:27
Speaker 1: So if you are to give the highest award, who
35:30
will you give thirty nine percent?
35:32
Speaker 2: But who passed among them?
35:36
Speaker 1: So the one who collected the award will rejoice that
35:39
he was more than others, not knowing that all who
35:43
got f they will all stand in the same place.
35:47
This is the fallacy of mediocrity. Comparing themselves with themselves.
35:53
The Bible says they are not wise. Is someone learning
36:00
the adventure in this kingdom is not who you are
36:02
better than? The adventure in this kingdom is rising to
36:06
the mark of the price of the kait calling in Christ.
36:11
So if you pray for ten minutes, you are better
36:13
than the one who does not pray, so you say,
36:16
but it's not enough to deliver that which you desire.
36:21
Currency number two humility and meekness. Someone learning. HM, Let's
36:34
look at one last scripture Philippians, chapter three, from verse four.
36:37
Please pay attention to this Philippians three and verse four
36:41
help us media.
36:41
Speaker 2: Let's rush so that we can pray. Now watch this.
36:47
Speaker 1: You have to understand that the man who is speaking here,
36:50
it's Paul, Paul the pharisee and Pall the apostle, a
36:56
twin combination that qualifies any man to be another authority
37:01
as a pharisee, a learned colleague, and now an apostle
37:05
of the Lord Jesus. With the attesting signs following, though
37:10
I might also have confidence in the flesh, he said,
37:13
if after man if after man, thinking that he aware
37:18
of he might trust in.
37:20
Speaker 2: The flesh I have.
37:22
Speaker 1: Next it says, circumcised on the eighth day of the
37:26
Stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew
37:31
of Hebrews, and as watching the law a pharisee. Next
37:35
verse concerning zeal persecuting the Church, touching the righteousness which.
37:42
Speaker 2: Is in the Law blameless. Next verse, But what things
37:47
were gain to me? Those I counted loss for Christ?
37:53
Is that in your bible? He said, Yeah, doubtless.
37:57
Speaker 1: Verse eight, I count all things is got loss for
38:01
the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord,
38:06
for whom I have suffered the loss of all things,
38:09
and do count them, but tongue that I may win Christ.
38:13
Speaker 2: Verse nine he.
38:15
Speaker 1: Says, and be found in him, not having my own righteousness,
38:19
which is after the Law, but that which is through
38:22
the faith of Christ Jesus, the righteousness which is of
38:26
God by faith in Him, Ahah, that I may know
38:31
him who is asking to know him. Here a man
38:34
who just finished reading his credentials, a pharisee and apostle,
38:41
wrote two thirds of the New Testament. And here's what
38:44
he says. At the Senate of an impactful ministry that
38:48
I may know him and the power of his resurrection
38:52
and the fellowship of his sufferings being made conformable onto
38:57
his death. I don't know about you, but in this
39:04
school of the Spirit, for me, there is no graduation.
39:11
There is only promotion from one eight and one level.
39:15
I continue to discover him every day, and I continue
39:19
to find truth like treasure. Let us return to the
39:23
place of genuine meekness and humility.
39:31
Speaker 2: Currency number three is someone getting blessed.
39:37
Speaker 1: The third currency that we used to buy the truth
39:41
is called genuine connection and followership.
39:45
Speaker 2: The third currency that buys the.
39:48
Speaker 1: Truth in this kingdom is the currency of genuine connection
39:53
and followership. Please pay attention, go back and listen to
39:57
this teaching again, and it will change your life. The
40:01
currency of genuine connection and followership very quickly.
40:06
Speaker 2: A few scriptures.
40:08
Speaker 1: Provabs chapter thirteen and verse twenty. Let me quote it
40:11
for the sake of time. He says, he that works
40:13
with the wise shall be wise himself. That means you
40:18
don't have to be wise, just work with the wise,
40:21
and something about your connection will in the connection with them,
40:25
will influence you. It says, but a companion of fools.
40:30
That man is not called a fool. He said, it's
40:32
a companion two fools, and yet it would be destroyed.
40:40
In Hebrews chapter six and verse twelve, the Bible says,
40:43
to not be slot fool, but to be followers of them.
40:48
Speaker 2: There are some them that are worth following. When you
40:52
follow those them, they are able to take you to
40:55
the place of destiny.
40:57
Speaker 1: Be followers of them who true faith and patience inheritor
41:03
obtained the promise. There are some them in Ghana, some
41:10
them in Takaradi that are want your followership. But it
41:14
must be genuine connection. Proximity to the anointing is not connection. No,
41:21
many people who were close to jails, some were making
41:24
money out of him, some were using him for fail
41:28
Only if.
41:29
Speaker 2: You connected to him genuinely.
41:33
Speaker 1: The third currency that we used to buy the truth,
41:37
alongside its lifting power, is the currency of genuine connection.
41:44
Speaker 2: And followership. Matthew, Chapter four.
41:47
Speaker 1: Please, from verse seventeen, is God helping us tonight Matthew
41:53
four and verse seventeen. Let me show you a very
41:55
interesting scripture from that time. The Bible says Jesus began
42:03
to preach and to say repent for the Kingdom of
42:07
Heaven is at hand. We're ready to twenty two very quickly.
42:10
And Jesus walking by the sea of Galilee, the Bible says,
42:14
he sought thru brethren. Simon called Peter and Andrew his brother,
42:20
causing their nets to the sea, for they were fishers. Uhah,
42:25
And he said, unto them, follow me. What was the command?
42:29
Speaker 2: Follow me?
42:30
Speaker 1: And left them a promise. He says, I will make you.
42:34
It's not only a fisher of men. He can make
42:36
you anything. Remember he's called the Maker. You know the
42:40
testimony of the Psalmis. I will lift up my eyes
42:43
onto the heels. Then he said, from whence commet my help?
42:47
He says, my help comet from the Lord, the Maker.
42:50
So every time you see a great life, the Maker
42:53
has met that life. The Maker makes men. Now the
42:58
Maker saying, follow me and I will make you.
43:02
Speaker 2: Do you have the humility to follow? I will make
43:06
you fishes of men?
43:08
Speaker 1: What did they do twenty the Bible says, and straightway
43:13
they left their nets. Do you see the exchange happening?
43:16
They had to leave something to follow. They didn't carry
43:20
it along, they left it. They left it there. Does
43:24
not mean they did not use it again. They placed
43:27
value on the follower ship more than what they were doing.
43:32
Twenty one. Please leave it to d twenty one. The
43:38
Bible says, I'm going from Fens. He saw all the
43:41
two brethren, James, the son of Zebede and John his brother,
43:45
in a sheep.
43:46
Speaker 2: He saw them mending their nets. He also called them
43:49
last verse twenty two. Now, and immediately they left the sheep.
43:57
Speaker 1: And followed him. What was the result of your followership?
44:01
Acts Chapter four from verse seven. These guys followed him
44:07
because he asked them to follow. They did not know
44:10
that they were brainy price And when they had set
44:14
them in the midst they asked, this was after the
44:17
man a get beautiful was healed?
44:19
Speaker 2: By what power or by what name have you done?
44:23
Speaker 1: This? Reading to thirteen verse eight, And Peter, filled with
44:28
the Holy Spirit, said, unto them, ye, rulers of the
44:32
people and elders of Israel. Nine he said, if we
44:36
this day be examined by the good deed done to
44:39
the important man, by what means he was made whole? Uhah,
44:44
be it known unto you all and to the people
44:47
of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of
44:50
Nazareth whom He crucified, whom God raised from the dead
44:55
even by him.
44:56
Speaker 2: Do this man stand before you hold verse eleven.
45:00
Speaker 1: And the stone which was set at nought by you builders,
45:05
is now become the head of the corner were reading
45:09
to thirteen. Neither is there salvation in any other, for
45:14
there is none of that name under Heaven given among
45:17
men by which we must be saved. I want you
45:19
to read verse thirteen together. It's a long reading, but
45:22
be patient. Ready one to read now. When they saw
45:27
the boldness of Peter and John and perceived that they
45:32
were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled, and they took
45:37
knowledge of them. What was a secret that they had been?
45:43
That was the receipt for that transaction. Follow me, and
45:49
I will make you.
45:51
Speaker 2: Follow me.
45:52
Speaker 1: The price of genuine connection and followership someone getting blessed.
46:08
In the parable of the ten virgins, there were five
46:12
who were foolish and five who were wives. They were
46:15
all virgins, and it was not an issue of sin
46:19
or righteousness. It was an issue of wisdom or foolishness.
46:23
And the foolishness of the five was that they did
46:25
not have extra oil, and in helping their situation, are
46:31
we together? Yes, the groom came and then they said
46:36
help me, please, the groom is here.
46:38
Speaker 2: Give us oil. And they said no, no, no, if
46:40
we give you, we don't have extra. It gave them
46:42
an advice, He said, go to.
46:44
Speaker 1: Them that sell and buy. There are those who sell.
46:50
Not everybody is in need. There are those who are
46:53
being made custodians of dimensions and crises. They are called
46:58
them that cells an election of grace. You may be
47:03
struggling with the prophetic, but they are.
47:05
Speaker 2: At them that cell.
47:07
Speaker 1: You can go to them that sell and buy. You
47:10
may be struggling with your finances, but they are at
47:12
them that cell. God has trusted them with that understanding.
47:17
Do you know it is amazing that when you find
47:20
these people who sell in one day a captivity of years,
47:25
your mounting is only relative to you. It's not a
47:28
general mountain. There are graces that can trip your lizes
47:31
that thing you call mountain. Every challenge is at the
47:37
messy of the grace that confronts it. Challenges are not general. No,
47:45
while they were shouting in the boat, Jesus was sleeping.
47:49
Challenges are not general.
47:52
Speaker 2: What is giving you sleepless night?
47:54
Speaker 1: Someone has accessive wisdom and the light and the knowledge
47:57
and conquered it experientially. My church is not growing, I
48:02
am sincere go to them that cell, and why my
48:08
business is not growing? I am doing my best. Does
48:12
not seem to open for me. Find out someone who
48:16
five years ago was under the bridge and with the
48:20
dignity of kingdom integrity, is now a millonaire.
48:23
Speaker 2: They are damned that cell.
48:26
Speaker 1: Can I tell you the pride of our generation is
48:28
one of the reasons why we never the humility of followership.
48:33
I wish I had time, I would have told you
48:35
the price of followership. Followership is expensive. It will cost
48:39
you your ego. Do you think Elijhah followed out of convenience.
48:45
Read your Bible and read history. Elijah was a ten perilsman,
48:50
no wonder. The sons of the prophet were offended until
48:53
they did not receive anything Elijah and goed, no, mar
48:57
you insult me, I will follow. Yeah.
49:01
Speaker 2: Can I tell you.
49:04
Speaker 1: The prize for followership of anybody who genuinely carries grace
49:10
is not convenient. Look at Jesus. Even the disciples said, listen, we.
49:15
Speaker 2: Need to talk. We have left all to follow you.
49:19
Speaker 1: What is our caught in this, and Jesus said, now
49:21
I got you no man who has left this and
49:24
that to follow me. It said, what you will receive
49:27
in this life followership is not by convenience.
49:31
Speaker 2: It's by revelation.
49:36
Speaker 3: I see.
49:37
Speaker 2: Now let me give us one more. Our time is up.
49:41
I promise you. This is this is just this is
49:45
just an exhortation where just listen.
49:51
Speaker 1: Now I promise five, but I'll have to give one,
49:55
so that will pray the What currency is the currency
50:06
of faith faih Hebrews, Chapter eleven and verse three. Through faith,
50:15
we understand faith does not just give faith reveals true
50:22
faith we can buy understanding with faith. Faith does not
50:28
just give things. Faith or shots you to rams. Through faith,
50:33
we understand that the walls the eons were framed by
50:37
the world of God.
50:39
Speaker 2: We were not there, but by faith we were able
50:43
to purchase that information and to believe it us true.
50:48
Listen very carefully.
50:50
Speaker 1: It will take faith for you to be able to
50:53
buy the truth, because in this life there are no guarantees.
50:57
And can I tell you true truth always looks powerless
51:02
till it meets what it was supposed to defeat.
51:06
Speaker 2: For instance, the truth himself. Jesus looked powerless on the
51:11
cross until he went to Hell. The potential of that
51:16
sacrifice was not seen on the cross. It was seen
51:19
when that scene changed and he went to Hell.
51:22
Speaker 1: Paul was giving that revelation, and he saw the cots
51:26
of Hell bowing on I mean, forcing him to bow down.
51:30
And the Bible says, having spoiled principalities and powers, he
51:34
made a public show of them.
51:36
Speaker 2: Try young thing over them. Minute is it in your Bible?
51:40
And he went to head is the.
51:42
Speaker 1: Place of the dead, A possibiter teaches us and preached
51:45
the gospel to them, And when they believed, he opened
51:48
the prison doors and came up with them, now being
51:52
the first begotten, no longer the only begotten. It's in
51:55
your Bible that when he resurrected from the dead, graves
51:58
were open, and not all of the departed, says, came
52:01
with him, and they walked through the streets of Jerusalem.
52:04
Yet the truth that defeated that lie of the victory
52:08
of Satan hung powerless on the cross. The truth of
52:13
giving looks weak until you see what it does with poverty.
52:18
The truth of obedience looks weak until you see what
52:21
it does to disobedience. The truth of prayer looks weak
52:28
until you see what it does to the realm of
52:30
the spirit. The truth of fasting looks weak until you
52:35
see what it does to your spirit. Man. The truth
52:39
of revelation looks weak until you see what it does
52:42
to your spirit and your mind. It is all by faith.
52:45
How do I know I am changing when I've not
52:48
seen any results? The currency of faith by the truth.
52:55
And he says, no matter the pressure, that means someone
52:59
is going to come at the back end of your
53:02
pressure to tell you give me what you have and
53:05
let me give you what you are looking for.
53:07
Speaker 2: I went together. Yeah, listen to me.
53:17
Speaker 1: When you get to times where you face challenges in
53:20
your spiritual life, Satan will come and say, give me
53:23
your hunger, give me your passion for God, and I
53:28
will give you rest, even though temporary. He says, sell
53:31
it not. I'm wrapping up my teache now. It is
53:34
not only by the truth. The sell it not part
53:37
is what I want to enter your spirit because there
53:39
is a way you can sell it. You can sell
53:42
it to compromise. You can sell it to complacency. Let
53:48
us not be weary in well doing. You can sell
53:50
it to weariness So there are people who bought the
53:55
truth yes ago in ministry, but now they have clearly
53:58
sold it because we do not see that hunger again.
54:03
Speaker 2: Every time what you had is no longer with you.
54:07
You sold it. And I can tell you the person
54:10
who buys all of them.
54:12
Speaker 1: I wish I had time, would have gone to Revelations
54:14
eighteen nineteen, and I will show you all the many
54:17
things that this she goddess called Jezebel has. She's a
54:22
business woman. She does merchandise with the kings of the earth.
54:25
And among the many things that she has, she has oils, anointings.
54:32
Speaker 2: She has many things, including slaves and the souls of men.
54:38
Speaker 1: You know how she buys it. She looks for moments
54:41
of weariness. Give me your hunger for God, and I
54:44
can give you your house rent, and you quickly like
54:48
the foolishness of isa Isaul was a mystery that we are.
54:52
Speaker 2: Still many people are still making that mistake. Today. Isaul
54:56
was hungry, and he said, I.
54:58
Speaker 1: Know my convi millions will come based on an excellent Jacob.
55:02
Speaker 2: What is this to me?
55:03
Speaker 1: Collect my bed right and give me the portage. We
55:06
laugh at Isaul, Yet we do not know that this
55:09
is a very massive weapon.
55:11
Speaker 2: That Satan uses.
55:15
Speaker 1: Many of you have traded your hunger and your passion
55:19
for God.
55:20
Speaker 2: Many of you have traded humility and meekness.
55:25
Speaker 1: Many of you have traded your genuine connection through offense.
55:32
Many of you have traded your faith. Peter, Satan has
55:37
desired to sift you like wit. But I have prayed
55:40
for you that your faith failed not, and when thou
55:43
hast strengthened, use the same formula and combat your bresident.
55:52
I've already mentioned the fifth king. I will not teach.
55:55
I'll just mention it. The fifth currency.
56:00
Speaker 2: Is prayer.
56:01
Speaker 1: Call on to me and I will answer, And in response,
56:06
I will show you great and mighty things which thou
56:10
knowest not. Are going to pray as someone received something
56:16
tonight Probabs twenty three, twenty three.
56:20
Speaker 2: Do not forget this. By the truth, by the truth,
56:27
use humility.
56:29
Speaker 1: The truth there means everything that represents God, because when
56:34
He came manifest in the flesh, the Bible says he
56:36
was full of grace and truth.
56:42
Speaker 2: I will tell you what is truth.
56:49
Speaker 1: Whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things
56:55
are lovely, whatsoever things are noble. If there be any venture.
57:00
If there be any praise, don't only think on them.
57:04
By them, that is the truth, That is the most
57:07
accurate definition of the truth. Everything that makes for this.
57:12
It extends to the anointing, to influence, to all of this.
57:17
So if you see men who are rich onto God,
57:20
don't blame them. They have brought the truth. If you
57:24
see a church that is flourishing, it was not by magic. No,
57:29
they bought the truth. Everywhere you see results. You see
57:33
the signature of hunger and desire. You see the signature of.
57:39
Speaker 2: Humility and meekness.
57:41
Speaker 1: You see the signature of genuine connection and followership. You
57:46
see the signature of faith Bible faith. You see the
57:50
signature of prayer.
57:53
Speaker 2: Rise up in one minute, just one prayer for tonight.
58:02
And I have believed in a lie. That's a prayer request.
58:09
That's you are arenavil to help me by now, Oh Lord,
58:18
I see my.
58:23
Speaker 5: Heal my heart and show yourself from handing my heart
58:32
and with my song, Oh.
58:37
Speaker 2: Be line, fire, be line.
58:47
Speaker 1: If Father, I obtained grease to buy the truth at
58:56
any cost, I obtain grease, Go ahead and pray, grant
59:02
me the grace restore onto my destiny the currency.
59:11
Speaker 2: Someone pray. Call back the currencies you have given away
59:16
by faith.
59:19
Speaker 1: The currency of hunger and desire restoy to my life.
59:28
The currency of meekness and humility, restoy to my life. Aye,
59:38

59:51
and followerships, the currency of faith, the currency of prayer.

1:00:31
Speaker 2: Time to pray for the sick. But one thing I
1:00:34
can tell you is these Egyptians you see in the
1:00:38
name of.
1:00:38

1:01:07
will be open to hear in the mighty name of Jesus.
