- 1:26of greater works unclean spirits we have authority
- 1:28over them hallelujah praise god hallelujah so
- 1:33now i know on sunday there are some scriptures
- 1:37that i gave us amen but before we go to the scriptures
- 1:40part of the thing like i said on sunday as i
- 1:43teach i'm also taught praise god because as i
- 1:46leave and go you know I don't just stop here
- 1:49I don't know whether you always stop here but
- 1:52as I leave my mind goes to meditation more and
- 1:55more and more and more praise God and one of
- 1:58the things that I've gotten through the process
- 2:01of meditation about discerning of spirits is
- 2:04this part that I added on my note which we are
- 2:07going to add to it before we come to those scriptures
- 2:09hallelujah and then the first topic there is
- 2:12that spirits needs bodily vessels to operate
- 2:17on the earth I know the Holy Spirit has a reason
- 2:23why this is coming, like this, before we read
- 2:26those scriptures. Spirits need what? Bodily vessels
- 2:32to operate where? On the earth, hallelujah. Even
- 2:36the Spirit of God, you know we listed what spirit
- 2:40can be discerned, right? The Holy Spirit can
- 2:43be discerned, the Spirit of God, number one.
- 2:45Human spirit can be discerned, amen? supernatural
- 2:49beings as angels can be discerned amen and then
- 2:53what unclean spirits or demons or evil spirits
- 3:01hallelujah so where are the spirit of God the
- 3:05Holy Spirit unclean spirits right they need what
- 3:11bodily what vessels to do what to operate on
- 3:16the earth Praise God. Hallelujah. So spirits
- 3:21are not licensed spirits to operate on the earth
- 3:24without a body. Amen. Good. So we have that topic.
- 3:31Spirit needs bodily vessels to operate where?
- 3:34On the earth. In fact the way I put it, I say
- 3:36even the spirit of God needs our body to function
- 3:40where? On the earth. Hallelujah. Amen. Yes. So
- 3:44now. On that subtopic that we have there, spirit
- 3:47needs bodily vessels, right? 1 Corinthians chapter
- 3:513 verse 16. 1 Corinthians chapter 3 verse 16.
- 3:55We're going to run through it very fast. We just
- 3:57want to establish that actually spirit needs
- 3:59what? Needs body vessels to operate where? On
- 4:05the earth. Amen? 1 Corinthians chapter 3 verse
- 4:0816. He said, do you not know that you are what?
- 4:13You are what? You are the temple of God. Let's
- 4:17read it this way that I am Say this way and I
- 4:21know that I Am the temple of God and the spirit
- 4:25of God dwells in me Hallelujah, so the spirit
- 4:29of God dwells where dwells in us How do we know
- 4:35we are coming to it? Amen, but now there's a
- 4:37reality that we know by scripture that for believers
- 4:41the spirit of God dwells where Dwells in us because
- 4:44we are his temple Praise God. So God does not
- 4:49dwell in trees He does not dwell in in the dogs
- 4:53around your area. Amen God dwells where he dwells
- 4:57in the believer the man that is saved Hallelujah
- 5:00has God in dwelling way in him. Praise God you
- 5:04say and I know you know I didn't want to put
- 5:07it as a question now as a reality and I know
- 5:10that I am the temple of God and the spirit of
- 5:12God that's what dwell in me hallelujah first
- 5:16Corinthians 6 19 first Corinthians 6 19 will
- 5:20be going a little bit faster so that we can establish
- 5:22that oh do you not know that your body what and
- 5:27I know that my body is what and I know that my
- 5:32what body. The body there is not another kind
- 5:35of abstract. It means this what? This body is
- 5:40the temple of the Holy Spirit. Who is where?
- 5:43Who is in me? Whom I have from who? From God
- 5:47and I am not what? My own. Say I have been possessed
- 5:51by the Spirit of God. Hallelujah. So you are
- 5:56under a possession. Praise God. You are not under
- 6:01oppression. You are under what? Possession by
- 6:04the spirit of who? Spirit of God. Where did you
- 6:07get the spirit from? From God. You say I have
- 6:10the spirit from God. Hallelujah. Where did he
- 6:14give me the spirit as salvation? Amen. When I
- 6:18got saved, God gave me his what? His spirit.
- 6:22So the man that has the spirit of God has the
- 6:24life of God. The man that has the spirit of God
- 6:27has the nature of God. Praise God. So directly
- 6:31what we are saying is that God is living on this
- 6:34earth through me. Amen. God will feel through
- 6:40me. God will open blind eyes through who? It
- 6:44is not custom that he's opening blind eyes. Jesus
- 6:47is the one doing it. How is he doing it? He is
- 6:52doing it because he lives in the inside of me.
- 6:55Amen. Then now, next verse now. Romans chapter
- 6:598 verse 9 to 11. So you see spirit, right? So
- 7:02the scriptures we are reading now is the spirit
- 7:04of God living in where? Living in us. Praise
- 7:06God. Romans chapter 8 verse 9. I will jump to
- 7:1111. But you are not in the what? In the flesh.
- 7:14But in the what? But in the spirit. If indeed
- 7:18the spirit of God dwells where? Dwells in you.
- 7:22Now if anyone does not have the spirit of Christ,
- 7:25he is not what? he is not his so the spirit of
- 7:29God dwells in the believer the man that does
- 7:31not have the spirit of God right is not of God
- 7:35because we're going to come to it amen to see
- 7:38why we are saying that praise God then verse
- 7:4111 now he said but in the spirit of him who raised
- 7:44Jesus from the dead dwells where dwells in us
- 7:47he who raised Christ from the dead will also
- 7:49give your life will also give life to your mortal
- 7:52bodies through through the same field that links
- 7:56where? In us. So spirit needs what? Needs body.
- 8:03Spirit of God. God himself who is spirit needs
- 8:06our body to be able to exact influence where?
- 8:12On the earth. Hallelujah. Praise God. Second
- 8:17Corinthians chapter 6 verse 16. 2nd Corinthians
- 8:22chapter 6 verse 16. And what agreement has the
- 8:25temple of God with what? With idols. For you
- 8:28are the temple of who? The living God. See now,
- 8:34as God has said, I will dwell where? In them.
- 8:38I will what? I will walk among them. I will be
- 8:42their God and they shall be my what? My people.
- 8:45Hallelujah. So how do we know that I am of God?
- 8:49I am of God because His Spirit dwells where?
- 8:52In me. And let's add these scriptures now. We
- 8:57may not read them. Let's add them. 1 John chapter
- 8:594 verse 13. Extra scriptures. 1 John chapter
- 9:034 verse 13. 1 John chapter 3 verse 24. 1 John
- 9:08chapter 4 verse 13. 1 John chapter 3 verse 24.
- 9:122 Timothy chapter 1 verse 14. Second Timothy
- 9:15chapter 1 verse 14. Don't forget we are taught
- 9:17our topic is designing of what? Spirit is the
- 9:20gift of designing of what? Spirit. So we are
- 9:23saying that spirit needs what? Body to function
- 9:27way on the earth Amen Hallelujah, and then we
- 9:31started from the beginning about what designing
- 9:34is Amen And I'll do one of the things that we
- 9:38say the designing of spirit is not is not the
- 9:41gift of discernment Hallelujah However, let me
- 9:45put a balance from Sunday. However, you can come
- 9:48into a place and be able to design that place.
- 9:54What we are saying in essence is that you can
- 9:56be able to judge that place. You can be able
- 9:59to be conscious about that environment to know
- 10:02the influence that is happening or that is taking
- 10:05place in that place. Amen. But there is nothing
- 10:09called gift of discernment, but the believer
- 10:12can discern. Do we know the balance now? Do we
- 10:16know the balance? There is nothing called the
- 10:18gift of what? Discernment. But the believer can
- 10:21what? Can discern. He can judge. That's what
- 10:25we are saying. The believer can recognize. That's
- 10:28what we are saying. The believer can be able
- 10:31to know what is evil and what is what and what
- 10:34is good. How? Now we have the spirit of God dwelling
- 10:38in him. Amen. Good. So. And you have to see that
- 10:44now. So now if the spirit of God is dwelling
- 10:47in the believer because the spirit of God needs
- 10:49the body of the believer to function on the earth.
- 10:52Now write this topic. The out walkings of the
- 10:55spirit of God in the believer. The out walkings.
- 11:01The out walkings of the spirit of God in the
- 11:04believer. So the spirit of God does not dwell
- 11:07in the believer and be abstract. So there is
- 11:10a way we will know. that you have the Spirit
- 11:13of God where? Living in you. Praise God. There's
- 11:18a way we will know. Galatians chapter 5 verse
- 11:2522 to 23. Galatians chapter 5 verse 22 to 23.
- 11:29He said but the fruit of the Spirit is what?
- 11:32It's love, joy, peace, longsuffering. Can we
- 11:36go to the previous verses? Go from verse 18.
- 11:40Let's see. Good if you are let what by the spirit
- 11:48of God you are not what? Under the law continue
- 11:52now Now the walks of the flesh are evident which
- 11:55are adultery for occasion uncleanness lewdness.
- 11:57Yes adultery sorcery hatred contentions. Jealousy
- 12:00is our boss next Envies murder drunkenness next
- 12:05we are coming to but the fruit of the spirit
- 12:08is what? So now the man that has the spirit of
- 12:11God living in him will be led by that same spirit
- 12:14amen so you can't have the holy spirit in you
- 12:19right and the holy spirit is just a dummy spirit
- 12:22inside you let me say it this way now every body
- 12:27every vessel a spirit possesses that spirit wants
- 12:31to exert influence through that body do you understand
- 12:36what i'm saying every vessel bodily vessels that
- 12:40a spirit possesses right that spirit wants what
- 12:44exact influence through that what through that
- 12:47body to be seen so now if you are led of the
- 12:51spirit of god which shows that the spirit of
- 12:53god dwells in you right so one of the things
- 12:56or some of the things that we're gonna see made
- 12:58manifest as a result of this spirit that is inside
- 13:01you is that we're gonna see what a walkings of
- 13:04love if there is hatred then question mark we're
- 13:09gonna see joy amen If there is no joy, question
- 13:14mark. We're gonna see what's peace. What's the
- 13:17opposite of peace? International relations, war.
- 13:21Okay. Crisis, chaos, okay. You don't have to
- 13:32go there directly now, because where there is
- 13:34no peace, even. So if there is no peace, if we
- 13:39see war, then there is what? it's a question
- 13:41mark this man you always move around the only
- 13:45thing we know about you is troubles you are right
- 13:48into a place your first signature is a first
- 13:52you will scatter place first question mark if
- 13:56we have long suffering long suffering opposite
- 13:58of long suffering is what eh impatience So we
- 14:16see impatience, right? So if there is impatience
- 14:20then we put what? We put question mark. Because
- 14:23you see, that man that is led of the Spirit of
- 14:26God, we should not see chaos in his life. we
- 14:30should not see that this man is about always
- 14:33he is impatient about everything he is impatient
- 14:36impatient instant cgpa instant money instant
- 14:40desire everything should be happening what instant
- 14:43instant instant instant when it comes that's
- 14:46even in the natural when it comes to the things
- 14:47of god you are instant miracle instant exegesis
- 14:51everything should happen back back back back
- 14:54back back question mark Because if you are led
- 14:58of the Spirit of God, we're going to see kindness.
- 15:00We're going to see goodness. We're going to see
- 15:02what? Faithfulness. Next one now, next one. We're
- 15:04going to see what? Gentleness. We're going to
- 15:08see self -control against such. There's no what?
- 15:12But you see, all these things will be seen on
- 15:14the outside because such a man is led by what?
- 15:17The Spirit of God. Because the Spirit of God
- 15:21dwells where? In the believer, in the man. Amen?
- 15:26Okay now. Philippians chapter 2 verse 13 You
- 15:32know we say we receive this spirit from God right
- 15:34and God says that I will dwell where I will dwell
- 15:38in them I will walk in them. I will be in them,
- 15:42right? Hallelujah. Good. So now let's see Philippians
- 15:46now chapter 2 verse 13 You say for it is God
- 15:50who what? Walketh where? Is it outside you? Where
- 15:55is he walking? Where is he working? In us, both
- 15:59to will and to do what? So when you do a good
- 16:02pleasure, is it abstract or visible? It's visible!
- 16:08When you love, when you work in patience, when
- 16:11you work in long -suffering, when you work in
- 16:13gentleness, in meekness, in kindness, is it abstract?
- 16:18No! We are going to see it! So you see God will
- 16:23not be dwelling in us and not be walking in us.
- 16:28Hallelujah. Praise God. So as he's dwelling in
- 16:31us, he's also what? Walking in us. What is the
- 16:35walk? So that we can do his what? Good pleasure.
- 16:39So when people see your life, they know that
- 16:41truly God does what? Dwell in you. Amen? Good.
- 16:47So now, 1 Corinthians chapter 12, verse 4 to
- 16:507. verse 4 to 7 First Corinthians chapter 12
- 17:09Are we there? So now we say the spirit of God
- 17:13dwells in the believer, right? So now these are
- 17:15also some of the things that we see the spirit
- 17:17of God produces out of the believers life. Hallelujah
- 17:19We say there are diversities of what of gifts,
- 17:22but the same what? Spirit. From verse 1. What
- 17:25verse 1 now? What verse 1? Verse 1, we said that
- 17:29what? Now concerning what? The things of the
- 17:32Spirit. Hallelujah. Brethren, I do not want you
- 17:36to be what? Ignorant. Hallelujah. So the Spirit
- 17:39of God does not dwell in the believer and leave
- 17:43his things outside. So he is in the believer
- 17:47with all his things. Praise God. So if the Spirit
- 17:52of God wants to exert influence through word
- 17:53of knowledge, we will experience that blessing
- 17:56of word of knowledge How? Through the believer.
- 17:59Praise God. Amen. So we want to see the prophetic
- 18:02How will the Spirit of God bring direction in
- 18:05the prophetic way through what? Through the believer.
- 18:08Is that clear? So we see the Spirit of God needs
- 18:12a temple, a body, right? To exert his influence
- 18:16where? On the earth. Praise God hallelujah you
- 18:21can write Ezekiel 36 verse 27 Ezekiel 36 verse
- 18:2727 I think we need to read this please Ezekiel
- 18:32he said I will put my spirit where within you
- 18:36and cause you to what to you know when you read
- 18:40it is almost like God is forcing you to walk
- 18:43in his status he said I will put my spirit were
- 18:49in you within you and cause you to work what
- 18:54in my status so the influence of my spirit in
- 18:58you is that we're going to see your obedience
- 19:00to my law praise god he said my status and you
- 19:05will keep my judgments and what and do them so
- 19:10the man that the spirit of god possesses is the
- 19:14man that will daily find himself working with
- 19:17the status of god why because the spirit of god
- 19:22dwells within that man glory to god hallelujah
- 19:27so now having said all these things the spirit
- 19:30of god possessing body and then the spirit of
- 19:32god now we see his workings through the person
- 19:34that he possesses amen through the believer now
- 19:37unclean spirits unclean spirits evil spirit demons
- 19:45possessing human vessels they also need body
- 19:49hallelujah yes unclean spirit also need what
- 19:52the same way the spirit of God needs a body right
- 19:56unclean spirit also what they need a body hallelujah
- 20:00praise God unclean spirit evil spirit possessing
- 20:06human vessels that's how I put it here There's
- 20:13a reason why we are where I believe we are coming
- 20:15this way right because we're talking about designing
- 20:18of what? Spirits and we also talked about the
- 20:21kind of spirit that can be discerned, right?
- 20:24So now we are seeing the spirits and then they
- 20:27are out walkings. Amen So which means that we're
- 20:31coming somewhere now because when it comes to
- 20:33the issue of designing of the spirits now, right?
- 20:35Because some certain times let me know move ahead
- 20:37of myself right that we may not know the spirit
- 20:41that is exacting influence, but we will see his
- 20:44what? His works. Amen. We may not be able to
- 20:50hear or know that the spirit is there, but we
- 20:52will hear him through his speaking and his works.
- 20:57Is that clear? Good. So now, Mark chapter 1 verse
- 21:0123 to 26. Mark chapter 1 verse 23 to 26. Now
- 21:08there was a man in their synagogue with what?
- 21:12So where do you think this unclean spirit will
- 21:14be living? The scripture says this man in the
- 21:21synagogue with an unclean spirit. Where do you
- 21:24think the unclean spirit will be? Following him,
- 21:27behind him? He will be inside him. He came into
- 21:33the synagogue with what? With the unclean spirit.
- 21:36The unclean spirit was possessing the man's body.
- 21:38And then he said and he did what and he cried
- 21:41out next verse saying let us what? Is it the
- 21:47man that is crying or the unclean spirit that
- 21:48are crying? The unclean spirit are crying what?
- 21:56Because they have possessed what? Let me add
- 21:59this now Every spirit that possesses you will
- 22:04want to use every member in your body to exert
- 22:07influence Let me repeat myself every spirit that
- 22:15possesses you will take advantage of all your
- 22:19members to exert what? influence on the earth
- 22:22So For example in mark chapter 16 where we always
- 22:30read right you say and this sign shall do what?
- 22:34Shall follow them right that belief in my name.
- 22:38They will do what? They will do what they will
- 22:41cast out what? Demons. All these people need
- 22:45to do because they have the spirit of God is
- 22:47that when they see a demon they use their tongue,
- 22:50right? And say demon, get out! Remember, the
- 22:57tongue. You see the only house where on the sick
- 23:00and the sick will do what? Will recover, remember.
- 23:04So the spirit of God is walking through the hand
- 23:06of the believer. The same thing that happens
- 23:09with the spirit of God in the believer. So we
- 23:11also see demons taking hold of this man's body
- 23:14you didn't only take hold of the man's body but
- 23:17they can also what they can also speak through
- 23:20the man's body so now they say that what 24 saying
- 23:27let us alone what have we do with you jesus or
- 23:31what nazareth how did they know his name you
- 23:40say what Don't worry, let's talk. How did they
- 23:43know his name? Familiar spirits All I know who
- 23:53are thou Let me say this now Ephesians chapter
- 23:591 in the spirit realm spirits know who Jesus
- 24:03is and They know who the believer is Hallelujah
- 24:07that where we are seated with Christ is what?
- 24:10Far above what? Principality. So, principalities
- 24:14know where Jesus is seated. So when they see
- 24:17Jesus, they know who Jesus is. Praise God. Hallelujah.
- 24:23Let us alone, Jesus of Nazareth. Did you come
- 24:26to what? Oh boy, the believer ought to destroy
- 24:31unclean spirits. We have the authority to do
- 24:35what? To cast them out and destroy them out.
- 24:38because they know what Jesus does to spirit he
- 24:41does not die. Who are you? How did you get into
- 24:45that place? Oh we are his ancestors we have been
- 24:48there 200 years. Okay what again have you done?
- 24:52we caused him to cook yam and beans and then
- 24:54what again we initiated him through his mother's
- 24:57womb and then we got diseases oh ha ha ha ha
- 25:00now you your brethren as you are watching you
- 25:03will see that the spirit will begin to manifest
- 25:04the spirit will begin to manifest so let me spirit
- 25:07and then the spirit is following the spirit is
- 25:09following you know you say lie down the spirit
- 25:12you will now see the spirit is going to walk
- 25:14like serpent now you say walk like serpent you
- 25:18say you see you see If you are in any CF here,
- 25:25ye hold this truth. Never be caught having this
- 25:28fun time with spirits. Because spirits know that
- 25:34when they possess bodies, it's illegal for them
- 25:37because that body belongs to God. And they know
- 25:41that every time they see the power of the Holy
- 25:44Ghost, what the power of the Holy Ghost does
- 25:46to them is do what? Is to destroy them. Now he
- 25:54said I know who you are the holy one of who?
- 25:58The holy one of God next verse now next verse,
- 26:01but Jesus did what? Jesus did what? Saying be
- 26:07what? Quiet and do what? If you are in this place
- 26:13and you are seen with the eyes of the spirit,
- 26:16this is what you should do to spirits not who
- 26:20are you how many years you have been there have
- 26:22you eaten today did you vomit did you sleep your
- 26:26eyes are red no be quiet and do what and come

- 26:35spirit at what convulsing is this guys forget
- 26:38this is this guys they convulsing and did what
- 26:41they cried out with the loud voice and what happened
- 26:43to them they came out of him. So every time a
- 26:47spirit is destroyed, what automatically that
- 26:51place is saying is that the spirit loses another
- 26:54body to inhabit. Hallelujah. Now, let's quickly
- 27:02go now. I said to 26, right? Perfect, now look
- 27:06chapter 4 verse 33 to 35. So now automatically
- 27:10we see an unclean spirit in a man and we see
- 27:13his out walkings. Amen, good. So look now look
- 27:17chapter 4 verse 33 now now in the signal in the
- 27:19synagogue there is there was a man who are you
- 27:22what? spirit of art and unclean what unclean
- 27:27demon and he cried out what with a loud voice
- 27:30almost just similar saying let us know what I
- 27:32wish to do it is your answer if you come to so
- 27:34if I know you are the only one of God yes but
- 27:36you just begin saying be quiet and come out of
- 27:38it and when the demon are turning in their midst
- 27:40it came out of him and did not what hurting so
- 27:47prior to now these spirits have been exerting
- 27:51so much influence on this man hallelujah now
- 27:56mark now mark chapter 5 verse 2 to 9 we may not
- 28:03read the remaining ones but mark chapter 9 verse
- 28:062 to 9 but chapter 5 sorry 5 verse 2 to 9 you
- 28:10see and when he was come out of the sheep Immediately
- 28:13there met him out of the tombs, a man with an
- 28:17unclean spirit. Who had his dwelling among the
- 28:22tombs? Can you see where spirits take people
- 28:25to live? Where is he dwelling? In cemetery, in
- 28:31the grave. Come on, not even under the bridge.
- 28:40took the man out of city took the man out of
- 28:44where people are took him away from the society
- 28:47and that man is now living where in the cemetery
- 28:50right so we see what unclean spirits can do just
- 28:56pay attention to the scriptures as we are moving
- 28:58now what is it they say is it because that had
- 29:03been sorry among the tombs and no man could what
- 29:07bind him no not with chains because that he had
- 29:11been often bound with fetters and chains and
- 29:14the chains had been plucked asunder by who by
- 29:19him and the fetters broken in pieces neither
- 29:22could any man what then him that's the influence
- 29:25of the unclean spirit and always night and day
- 29:28he was in the mountains and in the tombs crying
- 29:31and cutting himself with stones does that look
- 29:37like clean activities imagine we are passing
- 29:42by just this cemetery and you see a man there
- 29:45in one of just beside by the grave one of the
- 29:47graveyard he carries his soul just cutting into
- 29:49blood everywhere and he's crying and shouting
- 29:52and crying and shouting and then you now see
- 29:58yes we are passing you know sir oh ABCF torch
- 30:02what have you got to do with us today I believe
- 30:07nobody among you should wrong. Somebody just
- 30:14say that. Somebody just say, ah my eyes is on
- 30:17the pastors. And then they shout, have you come
- 30:26to destroy us? You these spirits are kind of...
- 30:34These ones, even negotiated with Jesus, say,
- 30:37please, I beg. I beg. There are even pigs there.
- 30:43Just allow us, let's take hold of those pigs.
- 30:50Like, let me say a joke. The pigs too were sensible.
- 30:54They say, you cannot inhabit us. Let's doubt.
- 30:58All of us, let's just die. see now he said but
- 31:06when he saw Jesus afar off he ran and worshipped
- 31:10him and cried with a loud voice and said what
- 31:16have I to do with what with thee Jesus thou son
- 31:20of the most high God I adjure thee by God that
- 31:23thou torment me what but why did he come to worship
- 31:27him He ran and came to Jesus to worship him But
- 31:34now he is now saying that he called his name
- 31:36and then say you should not do what torment me
- 31:40He now say for he said unto him come out of the
- 31:43man thou unclean spirit and he asked him What
- 31:46is thy name? And he asked her saying my name
- 31:49is what? Legion for we are Many and he be sorry
- 31:54much that he will not send them away out of the
- 31:56country. Can you see? He will not send them out
- 32:00of what? the country Now there was there nigh
- 32:06unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding
- 32:08and all the devils what? Besought him saying
- 32:12send us into what? Send us into the swine that
- 32:17we may what? Enter into them and fought with
- 32:21Jesus gave them what? Leaf and the unclean spirits
- 32:26went out of the man entered into the swine and
- 32:29the herd ran violently down a steep place into
- 32:34what the sea there were about two thousand and
- 32:39were choked in what in the sea so two thousand
- 32:44spirits were choked in the sea let me say this
- 32:52now as it's coming to my heart a most favorite
- 32:56place Where spirits can inhabit is a human body
- 33:01Do you what I just said? The most favorable place
- 33:05where spirits can inhabit an exact influence
- 33:08on the earth is what? Is a human body forget
- 33:12this thing that you see, you know, they say they
- 33:14have entered cuts You know, I Always say this
- 33:18thing. I say one of these days I'll trust God
- 33:20to bring my mom to this place So when she sees
- 33:23many cuts Maybe that will really do something
- 33:26to our mind Cats in my place, cats, whether well
- 33:33-trained cats, puffy cats, American cats. Cat
- 33:38is cat and they are evil. You see cat, you kill
- 33:43them. Here, cats will walk up to you, you are
- 33:47eating in a restaurant, they will jump, they
- 33:49are this thing, they are that. No, in my place,
- 33:51they don't jump. They don't. I know what I'm
- 33:56saying. One of these days one of the cars made
- 33:59a mistake. I came and gave back at the back of
- 34:01the window of the room of my mom Yeah, they are
- 34:04room Do you know what that means? Thank you,
- 34:10sir So they had the boldness to leave everywhere
- 34:15to come and give back in her house back of a
- 34:19window. Ah I'm writing oil finish them All the
- 34:26kittens were killed. All of them. Anointing oil,
- 34:30they sprinkle anointing oil everywhere in the
- 34:33house again. Everywhere. You know? They say two
- 34:37-factor authentication, right? You know? Everywhere.
- 34:41Everywhere. You kill, you still spread everywhere.
- 34:44Anoint everywhere. But at least we have an idea
- 34:50that demons can enter into animals. Amen? But
- 34:54animals are not best fit for what their activities
- 34:57on the earth. I know what I'm saying. Now, because
- 35:01we are going to see something here now. Then
- 35:03now, add this now. Luke chapter 8 verse 27. I
- 35:06haven't established that. Luke chapter 8 verse
- 35:0927. Matthew 17 verse 14 to 18. Luke chapter 8
- 35:14verse 27. Luke chapter 8 verse 27. Matthew 17
- 35:19verse 14 to 18. Luke chapter 22 verse 3. Luke
- 35:2622 verse 3. So one of the major things we are
- 35:27learning from here is that anywhere we discern
- 35:30spirits, unclean spirits, what do we do with
- 35:33them? We cast them out, amen? What do we do with
- 35:37them? We destroy them, we cast them, we rebuke
- 35:40them out, amen? Okay, good. So have we written
- 35:45that? John chapter 13 verse 27. John 13 verse
- 35:5027. John 13 verse 27. Matthew chapter 12 verse
- 35:5743 to 45. Matthew chapter 12 verse 43 to 45.
- 36:08Amen. Then now, the next thing I'll write, the
- 36:14out walkings or the walks of unclean spirits.
- 36:18However, we have seen their works here. Amen.
- 36:20But still writes the works of unclean spirits.
- 36:24So we are learning this so that even when we
- 36:27see them by their works, we can quickly know
- 36:30what's happening there. Amen. The works of unclean
- 36:33spirits. Ephesians chapter two, verse two to
- 36:36three. Ephesians chapter two, verse two to three.
- 36:40See what the scripture say. In which you once
- 36:44walk according to the course of what? Of this
- 36:47world. according to the prince of the power of
- 36:50the air the spirit who what who now walks in
- 36:55the source of what so this spirit that indwells
- 37:01this kind of people one of the things we see
- 37:03is what disobedience three now go to three among
- 37:09whom also we all once conducted what ourselves
- 37:12in the loss of our flesh so we see that this
- 37:16spirit also when they are in dwelling a place
- 37:18what do we see we see a loss of what of the flesh
- 37:23we see fulfillment of the desires of the flesh
- 37:27and of what and of the mind amen somebody say
- 37:36do i have an unclean spirit inside me uh you
- 37:38have the holy spirit inside you hallelujah however
- 37:42we are coming to what is happening praise god
- 37:45And we are by nature the children of wrath just
- 37:48as what? Just as the others. Praise God. So we
- 37:54see unclean spirits. We see disobedience. We
- 37:58see loss of the flesh, right? We see what again?
- 38:02Fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of what?
- 38:04Of the mind. Amen. Now, let's still add more.
- 38:09Galatians 5, 19, 21. Galatians 5, 19, 21. Now
- 38:16the works of the flesh are what? Are what? Are
- 38:21evidence. Which are adultery, fornication, uncleanness,
- 38:28right? Heresies, now the idolatry, sorcery, hatred,
- 38:33contentions, jealousies, outbursts of what? Wrath.
- 38:37Please go back to the previous verse. There's
- 38:39a word there that we need to get out. Next one,
- 38:41okay. Now the works of the flesh are. Now the
- 38:46works of the flesh are, so which means that we
- 38:50can do what? We can see them. Such influence
- 38:57will not be abstract. There are influences that
- 38:59can be what? Can be seen. 21 now. and the likes
- 39:10of which i tell you beforehand just as i also
- 39:13told you in time past that those who practice
- 39:15such things will not what inherit the kingdom
- 39:19of god because these people the spirit that is
- 39:23at work in them is not the spirit of god so the
- 39:27man that does not have the spirit of god inheriting
- 39:30kingdom of god is zero One of our pastors will
- 39:36always say this, you know, he said he I don't
- 39:39know whether he's but he always says and we laugh,
- 39:41you know He said, you know, there's this guy
- 39:44that will say I don't know whether he's true
- 39:46or not But I just he just came to my mind. He
- 39:48said that the guy they always preach the guy
- 39:50the guy they say no No, no, no, you'll not be
- 39:52safe. He wants to continue singing singing singing
- 39:54singing singing So I will make God's very angry
- 39:57So on that day, you know Sunday school has done
- 40:01lots of damage to our minds you know that on
- 40:04that day you know because of the kind of sin
- 40:07he has committed when God wants to throw him
- 40:11into hell as God throws him he will jump hell
- 40:16and enter heaven I don't know whether that is
- 40:35a product of red label or red horse or black
- 40:42label. I don't know. Once you don't have the
- 40:48spirit of God inheriting the kingdom of God is
- 40:51what is not a discussion again. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
- 41:00I will say something, but let's read this next
- 41:01verse. Colossians chapter 3 verse 5 to 6. Colossians
- 41:10chapter 3 verse 5 to 6. Multify therefore your
- 41:13members which are upon the earth. Therefore put
- 41:16to death your members which are on the earth.
- 41:20Fornication, uncleanliness, passion, evil desires,
- 41:23covetousness, which is what? Idolatry. Because
- 41:26of these things the wrath of God is coming what?
- 41:30The sons of who? the songs of disobedience these
- 41:34are not the songs of God these songs don't have
- 41:38the spirit of God see what 1 Timothy chapter
- 41:434 verse 1 will say 1 Timothy chapter 4 verse
- 41:471 help us too so we see the out walkings where
- 41:51there are unclean spirits we are going to see
- 41:53these out walkings we are going somewhere designing
- 41:56of who? of spirits now the spirit expressly says
- 42:03that in the latter time some will depart from
- 42:06what from the faith giving heat to what how are
- 42:12the deceiving spirits i love the way he seduces
- 42:15spirits how are they how are they able to talk
- 42:19giving heat to deceiving spirits and doctrines
- 42:23of demons how are the how are the demons giving
- 42:26doctrines through humans How seducing spirits
- 42:33speaking so much so that people will run away
- 42:36from the truth and go and sit there because there
- 42:40are Let me put it this way. I don't want to use
- 42:43the word pastors. There are human beings that
- 42:47Seducing spirit have possessed right and they
- 42:51are recruiting members for Satan Right and such
- 42:55people will love all these things will leave
- 42:58the truth of God's Word and will go and do what?
- 43:01and sit on that take us to the next verse speaking
- 43:03lies in what but you know that these people will
- 43:07sit there they will not know why because seducing
- 43:09speakings are coming when you are seduced your
- 43:13brain is corrupted you are under manipulation
- 43:18they are telling you lies you say no that boy
- 43:21you say see uh sister you see this brother is
- 43:25going to destroy your life he says sir you don't
- 43:27know he's touching my heart So he loves me so
- 43:31much. So you don't understand so you know we
- 43:34will never understand Tomorrow this place was
- 43:39well this place was well this place will increase
- 43:43size Seducing spirits don't speak the truth.
- 43:50What do they speak lies? Having their own words
- 43:55conscience here with what with I on next verse
- 43:58now Forbidding to marry and commanding to abstain
- 44:01from all these are doctrines, O. Teachings from
- 44:05who? From who? From demons. Commanding to abstain
- 44:13from foods which God created to be received with
- 44:15thanksgiving by those who believe and what? And
- 44:19know the truth. Can you see? Next verse now.
- 44:22For every creator of God is good and nothing
- 44:23is what is to be revealed if it is to be received
- 44:26with what? With thanksgiving just stop there.
- 44:32So, one of the out -walkings of unclean spirits
- 44:36is that they can also what? Speak. But when they
- 44:39speak, they don't speak truth of God's word.
- 44:42They speak what? They speak lies. Good. So now,
- 44:48are we all there? So we said that what spirits
- 44:51can be discerned? We said the Holy Spirit, right?
- 44:54The human spirit, right? Supernatural beings
- 44:57as angels, right? Demons or unclean spirits,
- 45:00right? so we have seen the spirit of god possessing
- 45:03body and what he can do through the body right
- 45:06we have seen unclean spirits possessing body
- 45:08and what they can also do through what through
- 45:11the body amen so now let's go back to the scriptures
- 45:15that i gave on sunday now having said all these
- 45:17things now match chapter 8 verse 16 are we all
- 45:22here okay match chapter 8 verse 16 now we are
- 45:25going to repeat a couple of scriptures because
- 45:27we have read some some many of them So these
- 45:31scriptures that we're reading is just to be able
- 45:33to see the differences or where the spirit of
- 45:36God is mentioned, right? Where the spirit of
- 45:39man is mentioned, amen? Where angels are mentioned
- 45:43and then where demons are. We have already read
- 45:45exhaustively where demons are mentioned, amen?
- 45:48I think we have also read exhaustively where
- 45:50the spirit of God is what? Is mentioned, hallelujah.
- 45:53Okay, so since we have done that, then let's
- 45:57read Mark chapter 2 verse 8. Mark chapter 2 verse
- 46:018 Mark chapter 2 verse 8 let's read Mark chapter
- 46:072 verse 8 Mark chapter 2 verse 8 so that we take
- 46:15advantage of time okay now from verse 5 now Before
- 46:30giving but there were certain of the scribes
- 46:32sitting there and reasoning way Where were they
- 46:36reasoning in their hearts, right? Seven why don't
- 46:41this man just speak what? Where are they reasoning
- 46:45from? Their heart their mind. Amen who can forgive
- 46:51sins, but God only and Immediately when Jesus
- 46:57did what? Perceives in his words in his spirit
- 47:03that they saw reason way Within themselves He
- 47:10said unto them why reason yet these things were
- 47:14in your hearts So we see Jesus Now discerning
- 47:23and perceiving from his spirit the human spirit
- 47:26the activity that is happening way within the
- 47:29human spirit, talking about who gave him that
- 47:33authority. Amen. So now if he forgives sins,
- 47:41how is that possible? Only God can forgive sins.
- 47:45The human being cannot be forgiven sins. Jesus
- 47:51perceived that. Hallelujah. 1 Corinthians chapter
- 47:562 verse 11. Jesus perceived that. They were reasoning
- 48:01in their hearts, human spirits. First Corinthians
- 48:05chapter 2 verse 11. For what man knoweth the
- 48:09things of what? Of a man. Save the what? The
- 48:14spirit of man which is where? Which is in him.
- 48:19Hallelujah. Even so the things of God knoweth
- 48:22what? No man but the spirit of what? the spirit
- 48:26of God now we have received not the spirit of
- 48:29the world but the spirit which is of God and
- 48:32that we might know the things that are freely
- 48:35what given to us of who of God so we see the
- 48:39human spirit here we see the the spirit of God
- 48:41here in fact we also see the spirit that the
- 48:44world gives to hallelujah praise God Which things
- 48:52also we speak, not in words, which man's wisdom
- 48:57teaches, but which the Holy Ghost teaches. How
- 49:01does the Holy Ghost teach us? How does the Holy
- 49:05Ghost teach us? We just read the Holy Spirit
- 49:07now. The new man! Hallelujah! So we see that
- 49:13spirits, when they inhabit human bodies, they
- 49:16also what? They speak. Hallelujah! Praise God
- 49:23Hebrews now let's read Hebrews Hebrews chapter
- 49:2712 verse 9 Hebrews chapter 12 verse 9 Hebrews
- 49:33chapter 12 verse 9 first Oh you can add that
- 49:38as an extra reference add that as an extra reference
- 49:41Amen add that what as an extra reference praise
- 49:48God for angels Hebrews chapter 1 verse 7 for
- 49:55angels Hebrews chapter 1 verse 7 for angels 1
- 50:02verse 7 and 14 and Of the angels he said who
- 50:06make it is angels what? Angel spirits hallelujah
- 50:11and his minister as a what a flame of fire 14
- 50:14are they not all ministry what? spirits Send
- 50:20forth to do what? To minister for them who shall
- 50:23be what? Who are hairs of salvation. Hallelujah.
- 50:28Praise God. So we see angels are what? A spirit.
- 50:33We've treated that. We've treated that. Amen?
- 50:37That angels are what? A spirit. Praise God. Now,
- 50:41have you said all these things now? How can spirit
- 50:44be discerned? How can spirit be discerned? Designing
- 50:49of spirit involves seeing and hearing. Designing
- 50:54of spirit involves what? Seeing and hearing.
- 51:02Designing of spirit involves seeing and hearing.
- 51:09Designing of spirit involves seeing and hearing.
- 51:16So we say the gift of discerning of spirit is
- 51:19an ability to see into the spirit realm. It's
- 51:25an ability to see what? Into the spirit realm,
- 51:28the unseen realm with the physical eyes. Hallelujah.
- 51:34So and now if we have to see now into the unseen
- 51:37realm which means not with the what? The natural
- 51:41eyes. So that can happen through granted appearances,
- 51:45such as vision. You know I say discerning of
- 51:50spirits, right, can happen by what? Seeing and
- 51:53what? Hearing. So now, seeing into the unseen
- 51:57realm can happen, one, through granted appearances,
- 52:02such as what? Visions. So we can see spirits
- 52:07via vision. I don't know probably because of
- 52:11this message. One of the dreams I had yesterday
- 52:14that we're casting out demons. Why is some of
- 52:20you laughing? I want to see demons so that I
- 52:26can cast them out more. Why are you people laughing?
- 52:32Yes, I want to identify them where they are.
- 52:36So that body... can be another vessel for the
- 52:39Holy Ghost. Hallelujah. No, I don't want to see
- 52:43them because I want to watch movies, no. I want
- 52:47to see them because we want to rebuke them and
- 52:49let the Holy Ghost inhabit that place. We want
- 52:52to see the havoc and the chaos they are causing
- 52:54through causing so many kinds of infirmities
- 52:57and diseases so that we can bring the healing
- 53:00of Jesus to that place. Hallelujah. You know
- 53:03some of the places that when you go you read
- 53:05more, right? He calls them the spirit of infamities
- 53:09He said the spirit of death and doom He said
- 53:13the spirit of blindness Everywhere those spirits
- 53:17were mentioned that Jesus had to cast them their
- 53:19names were mentioned based on their activities
- 53:22The spirit of fornication the spirit of jealousy
- 53:26the spirit of depression Why they are called
- 53:29like that is because of what? the kind of influence
- 53:33they exert that we see. Hallelujah. So it's easy
- 53:39to get them out. Praise God. You're right, I
- 53:43started on Sunday by saying that, you know, this
- 53:45teaching has taught me, and is still teaching
- 53:48me, and is inspiring my desire more. Because
- 53:51I have never, this is the first time, this is
- 53:54the first time me, I'm receiving this teaching.
- 53:58This is the first time. And it's sharing a desire
- 54:01more. It's changing how I see certain situations.
- 54:06It's encouraging me more. In fact, my desire
- 54:08is more. Now if I go, my antennas are all open.
- 54:11I want to check everywhere. I know what I'm saying.
- 54:16You are the one that think everything that is
- 54:18happening is just natural. It's not like that.
- 54:23Hallelujah. Let me say this this week. Even the
- 54:31things sometimes Panadol can cure, they are not
- 54:34natural. Do you know what I just said? Yes, they
- 54:40have an influence. At least do you know that
- 54:42all the things we have seen, you didn't see that
- 54:44they say that infirmity comes from Jesus, right?
- 54:47Did you see that they say spirit of death and
- 54:49dump came from God? No. So we know their sources.
- 54:54Because in the definition, if you check that
- 54:56definition, we say so that we can recognize their
- 54:58source. Hallelujah! Yes! So now unclean spirits
- 55:03when we see their walkings we know the source.
- 55:06The spirit of God, when we see his walking we
- 55:09also know the what? The source. Designing becomes
- 55:13easy. Hallelujah! Now, having said all these
- 55:18things now, granted appearances through visions,
- 55:22right? Or by hearing through speaking, when they
- 55:26speak. when they speak majorly by hearing when
- 55:36they speak or granted appearances through what?
- 55:40Through visions. So now, when the gift of the
- 55:45spirit, the designing of spirit is in operation
- 55:49through the believer, the believer will see and
- 55:53share things about such spirits. When the gift
- 56:00of the spirit of designing of spirits, right?
- 56:04The gift of designing of spirits is in operation
- 56:06in the believer. The believer will do what? The
- 56:08believer will see and also hear what? He will
- 56:12hear the things concerning that spirit. So write

- 57:10the spirit realm because the people around him

- 57:17at the point of death that he saw into the spirit
- 57:20realm and saw the heavens open right and the
- 57:23people around him could not see so much so that
- 57:26the scripture said they blocked their ears So
- 57:29they don't want to hear what he was saying. Praise
- 57:32God. Acts chapter 7 verse 55 to 57. You will
- 57:36see that there. Acts chapter 9 verse 10 to 12.
- 57:42Acts chapter 9 verse 10 to 12. Ananias' vision
- 57:46about Saul. Amen? Yes. So what happened to Ananias
- 57:52is that Ananias was in his house, Saul was in
- 57:55another location. Amen? but you see what God
- 57:58did was that God had to by vision right grant
- 58:02an anoint to see Paul praise God so he didn't
- 58:06see the body of Paul he saw the spirit of Paul
- 58:09praying and the kind of instruction that Jesus
- 58:13was giving who was giving Paul praise God then
- 58:19Acts chapter 16 Acts chapter 16 in Acts chapter
- 58:2416 now is the story of Paul right and it came
- 58:31to pass as we went to prayer a certain damsel
- 58:35possessed with the spirit of divination met us
- 58:39which brought her masters much gain by soot saying
- 58:42can you see that this spirit is not the spirit
- 58:44of God they may already they have told us that
- 58:47is the spirit of what divination and the spirit
- 58:50of divination is giving what soot saying hallelujah
- 58:53then now see what happened now in verse 17 the
- 58:57same followed Paul and us and was crying saying
- 59:00these men are the servants of the most high God
- 59:03spirit of divination and a soothsaying spirit
- 59:08now saying they are what? they are the servants
- 59:11of who? they are the servants of God we show
- 59:14unto us the way of salvation but they are not
- 59:16saved they say these people are showing us the
- 59:19way of salvation but they are not what? But she
- 59:22wasn't saved. Now see, now verse 18. And this
- 59:26did she do, she did many days. But Paul, being
- 59:30grieved, turned and set on to what? On to the
- 59:34spirit. Because Paul designed that this spirit
- 59:38is not the spirit of who? The spirit of God.
- 59:42He said, I command thee, in the name of Jesus
- 59:45Christ, to what? Command of her. Let's take a
- 59:49cue. You see, Jesus did the same thing. and we
- 59:51are seeing the apostles also doing the same to
- 59:53what to demons what are they saying demons do
- 59:56what come out of him so what are we supposed
- 59:59to do when there is a demon what are we supposed
- 1:00:02to do there's no time yes hallelujah then now
- 1:00:08write this now lastly now write this now the
- 1:00:16word of knowledge The word of knowledge and then
- 1:00:25discerning of spirits. I remember I said something
- 1:00:28that oftentimes what happens now as a balance
- 1:00:31between the word of knowledge and discerning
- 1:00:32of spirits, the word of knowledge, the gift of
- 1:00:35the spirit, the word of knowledge allows you
- 1:00:38to know or allow you to know that there is a
- 1:00:40spirit in this place. Hallelujah. He allow you,
- 1:00:44you are able to know that an unclean spirit is
- 1:00:47where? is here. Even if the unclean spirit does
- 1:00:50not exert any works. Amen? You just go into a
- 1:00:54place and then suddenly you just know by the
- 1:00:56spirit that unclean spirits are here. Praise
- 1:00:59God. So you see what Word of Knowledge does is
- 1:01:02that Word of Knowledge will give you facts from
- 1:01:04the mind of God that there is an unclean spirit
- 1:01:06where? In this environment. But now what the
- 1:01:09discerning of spirits will do is that the discerning
- 1:01:11of spirits will also give you the ability to
- 1:01:14now what? See the spirits. Hallelujah. Or when
- 1:01:18the spirits speak, you will quickly know that
- 1:01:21what? These are the spirits that are what? That
- 1:01:24are taking advantage of this atmosphere. Praise
- 1:01:27God. Hallelujah. Can we just appreciate God everybody?
