- 0:12the glory His deserving of our praise and honor.
- 0:15Can you lift your voice and say thank you?
- 0:18Thank you to Jesus the King of Kings.
- 0:21Thank you to Jesus the Lord of Lords.
- 0:23Thank you to Jesus the great I am.
- 0:26One of the ways that God blesses His people is to reveal His
- 0:30names. His names capture the various
- 0:34dimensions of His possibility. Lift your hands, lift your
- 0:37voice. Give Him praise tonight.
- 0:46Blessed be the name of the Lord. Shala Brando Sigate, if I were

- 1:09caparando ziata. Hallelujah, please.
- 1:19You may be seated. God bless you.
- 1:21It's good to be in the House of the Lord.
- 1:24If you're excited, can you give Jesus a big hand clap?
- 1:30Amen. Glory be to the name of the
- 1:34Lord. I want us to really be mindful
- 1:38of the goodness of God to us as a family of faith.
- 1:42God has been very good to us and it's our culture in this house
- 1:48to be ever grateful, never taking His faithfulness for
- 1:51granted. Hallelujah.
- 1:54We must be people who are grateful, thoughtful, thankful,
- 1:58especially that we're preparing now for our forthcoming
- 2:01convention. It's already a sign and a wonder
- 2:04what God is doing, and we must be grateful people.
- 2:07Someone help me shout Thank you, Jesus, like you mean it.
- 2:12Say thank you Jesus and then I want to acknowledge all who are
- 2:18here in our meets tonight, our international guests.
- 2:21As always, it's an honor. We salute you for traveling all
- 2:24the distance to be with us tonight.
- 2:27We have my dear friend Pastor Pete Rock.
- 2:30God bless you was a glorious time with him at Shout 7 in
- 2:35MENA. Such a great outpouring of the
- 2:39Holy Spirit. We're also very honored to have
- 2:45Her Royal Majesty, the wife of the Olu of worry.
- 2:47God bless you. This is home for you.
- 2:50So we'll say welcome home every time you're here.
- 2:52Please give her a big God bless you warehouse of honor.
- 2:56We love you sincerely. Thank you very much.
- 2:59And I was also told that she will not be coming alone.
- 3:04So she came with, I hope I get the name right all the way from
- 3:07Namibia. Namibia.
- 3:10Honorable Kadiva Diana, am I right on that?
- 3:13The governors of one of the regions, Koinonia, gave her a
- 3:16big Koinonia welcome. Thank you so much for traveling
- 3:21all the way. Amen and Amen and Amen.
- 3:27It's a good thing to acknowledge those who are deserving of
- 3:29honor. And I think that when God brings
- 3:35great people your way, you should be very mindful of
- 3:38communicating honor. We live in a very proud world
- 3:41where people who are not doing anything find it difficult to
- 3:45say, you know, well done or thank you.
- 3:48Once you find greatness, don't ignore it.
- 3:51Don't ignore it. Praise the name of the Lord,
- 3:54right. So God gave me a song during the
- 3:56week and Amen and Amen, yes, one one of the things that come with
- 4:04new seasons and new songs and so.
- 4:09So. Praise the name of the Lord.
- 4:11And I truly believe with all my heart that this, this is a, this
- 4:20song is beyond just something to sing.
- 4:23It's a weapon of war, Hallelujah.
- 4:26And I took time to pray over the song and I said, Lord, place an
- 4:31anointing on this song, please. An anointing on this song as we
- 4:36release it to the nation's, let it truly, truly do wonders.
- 4:42Hallelujah. The title of the song is Hosanna
- 4:45and Hallelujah. Just a little background, Psalm
- 4:51118 from 25 and 26 is where we get the word hosanna.
- 4:57And the word hosanna comes from the Hebrew word hoshiana.
- 5:02The meaning of that is it was originally designed to be a cry
- 5:05for help. So it's it's a, it's a
- 5:08declaration of the need for help from God when you find a life
- 5:14that's gone through all kinds of things.
- 5:17The word hosanna was not supposed to be a declaration of
- 5:20praise. It was like an emergency call.
- 5:23You call on heaven to respond to you.
- 5:25But eventually it grew to become a chant of praise.
- 5:30Remember when Jesus had his triumphant entry, they said
- 5:34Hosanna. Blessed is he who comes in the
- 5:36name of the Lord. So the song Hosanna is from
- 5:38Psalm 150. Let's read Psalm 1:51 to 6:00.
- 5:43And then I step back and allow the worship team to just
- 5:46introduce the song Psalm 150150150 from verse one to six.
- 5:55Praise ye the Lord, Praise God in his sanctuary, Praise Him in
- 6:00the firmament of His power. Verse 2.
- 6:03Praise Him for his mighty act. Praise Him according to His
- 6:07excellent greatness. Verse 3.
- 6:09Praise him with the sound of the trumpet.
- 6:12Praise him with the sultry and harp. 4 Praise him with the
- 6:16timbrel and dance. Praise him with stringed
- 6:19instruments and organs. 5 Praise him upon the loud symbols,
- 6:25praise him upon the high sounding symbols.
- 6:28Let's read verse 6 together. Let everything that has bread
- 6:33praise the Lord. And so, Koinonia, global body of
- 6:39Christ, we're honored to bring you this song, Hosanna.
- 6:42And I'm praying in the name of Jesus Christ that many
- 6:46testimonies will come from this song.
- 6:48Let it be a weapon of war. Let it be a declaration of the
- 6:52majesty of the Lord, and I'll let them sing, and then I'll
- 6:56come up, and then we'll get into the business of the night.
- 6:58Hosanna, God bless you Jesus. Clap your hands, all you people
- 7:07Shout Whoo Hosanna to the key.
- 7:23Never. It's a simple song.
- 7:31Yeah, you can put the dance to it.
- 7:38You can put the dance to it. Are you ready?

- 8:22now, Are you ready? Put the dance to her and dance

- 9:04creation. God must hide to be praised.

- 17:13I'm sure Favor will do a dance for this.
- 17:16We'll find it maybe sometime in the course of the convention.
- 17:20We'll give them room to come and do a dance for this word.
- 17:24Help me give the worship team a big God bless you.
- 17:29Hallelujah. Lift your hands and turn it into
- 17:32prayer. Hosanna in the highest blessed

- 17:44We acknowledge the do of wonders in our midst is a mighty God.
- 18:53Hosanna, the nations will sing your praise.
- 19:02Hosanna, creation will shout your praise.
- 19:12You are worthy to be praise. You are worthy to be praised.
- 19:22You are worthy to be praised. I'm just giving him praise.
- 19:27Worthy to be praised. OK, OK.
- 19:43Oh, Sana. OK, OK, Hallelujah.
- 21:00My. Soul.
- 22:18Hosanna, all the nations, the nations will sing your praise,
- 22:23will sing your praise. Or sound for the last time,
- 22:32Hosanna. Rosanna,
- 22:58the nation's will sing your praise in your praise.
- 23:04Hosanna in the creation. Creation will shout your praise.
- 23:17Glory be to the name of. Jesus.
- 23:31Give Jesus a big hand clap. Glory to the name of Jesus,
- 23:37please. You may be seated.
- 23:39You may be seated, you may be seated.
- 23:43Glory be to the name of the Lord.
- 23:47New seasons usually come with prophetic songs.
- 23:51This is beyond a song to jump and shout with.
- 23:54It's a song to war with. One of the ways that God reveals
- 23:59Himself and His power is to cause you to invoke His names.
- 24:04As you invoke His names, there's a reaction in the Spirit, so
- 24:09you're not just shouting. And not just shouting.
- 24:13I pray that many miracles will come from this song in the name
- 24:18of Jesus Christ. Some of you will stand before
- 24:20mountains. You will look them in the face,
- 24:23and even if you don't have words, you'll say.
- 25:17And you will watch the power of praise with understanding as it
- 25:21opens doors, as it shifts seasons in Jesus name.
- 25:26My assignment tonight is to lead us through a cry for greater
- 25:30glory. My assignment is to walk with
- 25:35the spirit of grace to plant a fresh hunger and a
- 25:39dissatisfaction in our hearts that in as much as God has done
- 25:42much with us, there is still room for a higher level.
- 25:47And I pray in the name of Jesus Christ that as I charge your
- 25:49hearts, this will not be one familiar service.
- 25:53It will be 1. You will approach with hunger,
- 25:55with desperation, and with the spirit of reverence.
- 25:59The Lord will do us good in Jesus name.
- 26:02I title my teaching tonight another measure, a cry for
- 26:06greater glory. Haggai chapter 2 and verse 9.
- 26:11Haggai 2 and verse 9. The glory of the latter house
- 26:18shall be greater. I tell you, I censor an
- 26:21anointing. As I just began to read this
- 26:23scripture, I just sensed, like a wave of God's power, the glory
- 26:28of this latter house. Even if that house is called
- 26:32Koinonia. Even if that house is called
- 26:35Joshua Selman, even if that house is called your business,
- 26:38even if that house is called your ministry, the glory of this
- 26:42latter house shall be greater than the former, said the Lord.
- 26:47And in this place I will give peace.
- 26:52I will give peace. I don't know what God is up to
- 26:55tonight, but let's let him do what he's doing.
- 27:01The nations will sing. Your praise.
- 27:35Hosanna in the nations, the nations will see your praise.
- 27:42Lord you reign. Hosanna in all of creation will
- 27:49shout your praise. Lord Most High, you are worthy
- 27:54to be praised. We are people of the Spirit,
- 28:01Lord Most High. Sing Hosanna one more time.
- 28:30The nations, the nations will see your praise.
- 28:41All the creation. Creation will shout your praise,
- 28:49Lord Most High. You are willing.
- 28:52To be praise. Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
- 29:12Please give me two minutes. If you are sick in your body,
- 29:15we're going to invoke the names of God for the next two minutes.
- 29:19I just sense a strong healing anointing flowing from this
- 29:23song. 2 minutes that killing glory like a river.
- 31:27Singing to the kid. The nations will see your brain
- 31:49creation. Creation will shout your brain.
- 31:55You are worthy to be. You are worthy to be.
- 32:02Allow that healing river flow to you, flow to your body, flow to
- 32:07your. Family, that's all these things
- 32:11one more time. In the name of Jesus, I decree
- 33:09and declare anyone who's sick in your body, carrying weights,
- 33:14carrying diseases and infirmities, we invoke the God
- 33:19of glory, the one with the outstretched up.
- 33:24And in the name of Jesus, I bring you life, and I bring you
- 33:27healing. Life and I bring you healing
- 33:30across the airwaves. Life and healing.
- 33:33Life and healing, Recovery and restoration, Life and healing.
- 33:39Life and healing by the power of the Holy Spirit in the name of
- 33:44Jesus. God is gone up in your life with
- 33:47a shout. I decree and declare by the
- 33:49power of the Holy Spirit as He arises as the Son of
- 33:52righteousness, Let it be with healing in His wings.
- 33:55I decree and declare by the power of the Holy Spirit.
- 33:58Healing for you right now, recovery for you right now.
- 34:03Creative miracles for you right now.
- 34:05Let your organs be cleansed in the name of Jesus.
- 34:10This will be your song for the remaining part of the year.
- 34:13You will shout Hosanna in the highest because of breakthroughs
- 34:17and liftings and open doors and restorations and advancement.
- 34:22New dimensions, fresh oil upon your life.
- 34:26This will be your testimony. God is insisting upon us with
- 34:30this song because He's pouring oil upon us.
- 34:34Masoina Soyina is the lover of your soul.
- 34:43There's No Fear, my Chitona, your kinsman Redeemer.
- 35:28My soul. Father, we pray that the
- 35:37anointing you have placed upon the teaching tonight and upon
- 35:42this prophetic song you have brought to the body of Christ.
- 35:45Let it flow, let it rest. Let it stir the hearts of men.
- 35:51Let it reawaken faith. Let it bring men to a point
- 35:55where they see limitless possibilities again.
- 35:58Let every doubt, every fear, every negative programming fade
- 36:03away. You are the God of all flesh,
- 36:07and even tonight we pray that as we hear you, we press.
- 36:11As we hear you we press. As we hear you, we press.
- 36:17Glory be to Jesus, Please be seated.
- 36:22Please be seated. Haggai Chapter 2 another
- 36:25measure, a cry for greater glory.
- 36:28Tonight's teaching is for people who never get satisfied with
- 36:31where they are spiritually, financially, in life and in
- 36:36destiny. The teaching tonight is an
- 36:39encouragement and a propeller for one who knows there is
- 36:43always more regardless the height.
- 36:46Every time I talk about pressing in the spirit, I recall
- 36:49Revelations 4 and verse one. I preached it sometime in the UK
- 36:54two years ago or last year. It says after this I looked and
- 36:58behold, the door was open. After Genesis 1, Genesis 2,
- 37:02Genesis 3, I mean after Revelations 123.
- 37:06Regardless, the spectacular things that happened, the
- 37:09message to the seven churches is that I still looked and I saw a
- 37:13door was opened and a voice spoke to me through that door
- 37:18and showed me the things that must happen thereafter.
- 37:23Second Corinthians 4 and verse 17, the second Scripture,
- 37:27another measure for our light affliction, which is but for a
- 37:31moment worketh for us, not against us.
- 37:36Please look up there whenever you read Scripture, Don't be in
- 37:40a hurry to rush. The idea is not to finish
- 37:44verses, but to extract the depth, the riches that are
- 37:48embedded in the verses. Here's the Bible speaking about
- 37:51affliction. And then he's saying that
- 37:54affliction works for us. Affliction works for us.
- 38:00Our light affliction, momentary constraints, the
- 38:04disappointments, the pain, the losses, are we together all the
- 38:09things that adopt to become discouragements in our lives.
- 38:14The Bible says for the believer in Christ, no matter how long it
- 38:18is, it is but for a moment you must understand Bible language.
- 38:22God calls five years a moment. How do you call the pain of two
- 38:26years, three years, five years, 10 years?
- 38:29And then the Bible uses a language as though careless, a
- 38:32moment, a moment. There are certain levels of pain
- 38:37and discouragement. You do not even want to last
- 38:40more than a day. And for some, many people, even
- 38:43those in Christ, they've carried prolonged pain, maybe a bodily
- 38:47infirmity. They've carried prolonged pain,
- 38:50maybe disappointment battles, legal battles, physical battles,
- 38:54spiritual battles, warfare over your family, your job.
- 38:58And yet when the Bible speaks to you, speaking to comfort you, it
- 39:02says for our light affliction. Now he's not downplaying the
- 39:08situation, He's only calling it light with respect or relative
- 39:13to the dimension of glory. The Bible says the weight of
- 39:17glory that shall be revealed in you.
- 39:19So it says for our light affliction, which is but for a
- 39:22moment it worketh for us. I like this.
- 39:27It worketh for us. It does not work against you
- 39:31because you are in Christ. I've taught you here that in the
- 39:35economy of the Kingdom, once you are in Christ, everything can be
- 39:40used by God to produce glory in your life.
- 39:43Whether it's pain, losses, disappointments, doesn't matter
- 39:47what happens. You lost a loved 1, You lost a
- 39:49job, you lost an opportunity. You know your marriage is going
- 39:53through crisis, your health is depleting.
- 39:55The Bible says in Christ you must sustain this orientation,
- 39:59that even though they are light afflictions, they work for us.
- 40:04A far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
- 40:10The next thing I want to point to you there is that the glory
- 40:13of God rests on men in measures and weights.
- 40:18I've taught you about the word glory from its Hebrew and Greek
- 40:25expression. I don't want to go into that for
- 40:27tonight, but it was an ancient language that was used
- 40:31particularly for treasures. And because they stored
- 40:35treasures in gold and precious metals those days.
- 40:38So the weightier a precious metal was they, it, it was
- 40:43glorious, you know. So they used how lustrous it
- 40:46was, how pure it was like silver and gold and so on and so forth.
- 40:51And then the weight of it. And that's still a practice till
- 40:54today. You talk about 16 karat gold, 17
- 40:58karat gold, you know, 21 karat gold and all of that.
- 41:02And so the Bible says that there are measures of glory, measures
- 41:07of glory. 16 karat gold is still gold. 18 karat gold is still
- 41:13gold. 21 karat gold is still gold.
- 41:17But they are not the same in terms of weight, in terms of
- 41:20value, and in terms of the honor they confer on the one who wears
- 41:25them. Am I right on that?
- 41:26Praise the name of the Lord. In monetary terms, 1000 naira is
- 41:31currency, $1.00 is currency, $100 bill is currency.
- 41:38But the person who holds 1,000,000 naira and the person
- 41:42who holds $1000, they are all holding currency.
- 41:46But you will know the difference at the point of purchase.
- 41:50Am I right here that yeah, praise the name of the Lord?
- 41:54So there are weights. When you enter an aircraft, the
- 41:59aircraft is taking you to the same destination.
- 42:01But in most aircrafts they have about two or three categories.
- 42:05They have the the, you know, the economy, they have the premium
- 42:10sitting area and in others they even have the first class.
- 42:13Even though you are going to arrive at the same time, but the
- 42:17experience is not the same. So the Bible says that glory is
- 42:21in wits and it's in measures. Are we together?
- 42:25That means a man can carry a dimension of the glory of God.
- 42:29And for the purpose of our discussion tonight, very
- 42:31quickly, I define for you the word glory.
- 42:34Glory is a capture, an aggregate of all the attributes, all the
- 42:42qualities of God, all the qualities in God that makes him
- 42:47worthy of worship, that makes him worthy of praise.
- 42:50So when you talk about the glory of God, it's an exploring, it's
- 42:56a research into the various qualities, the various
- 43:00attributes of God that makes him so deserving of our worship, so
- 43:06deserving of our praise. For you to understand the glory
- 43:10of God, you have to explore the various attributes of God,
- 43:14attributes like his goodness, attributes like his kindness,
- 43:19attributes like his love, attributes like his wisdom, his
- 43:23power. These are all the components
- 43:25that add up together that you call the glory of God.
- 43:29So the glory of God is not just a unilateral understanding of
- 43:32anything good about God. No, it's a capture of the
- 43:35various qualities of God that makes Him so deserving.
- 43:40When we talk about heavier weights of His glory, that means
- 43:44heavier weights of wisdom, of power, of favor, of His goodness
- 43:48invested upon a man. Remember, the Bible talks about
- 43:52men as stars. And Apostle Paul was speaking to
- 43:55the church in Corinth. I believe he said that even
- 43:58though they are all called stars, but that there are bodies
- 44:01that are terrestrial and there are bodies that are celestial.
- 44:05It's not the size, it's the weight of glory on them, he
- 44:08says. Even among the stars, 1 differed
- 44:12from another in glory. So you can have two believers
- 44:17all born again, all filled with the Holy Spirit.
- 44:20But the extent, the weight that they carry in the Spirit and the
- 44:24possibilities that they are able to command, it's not necessarily
- 44:27a function of their size. It's not necessarily a function
- 44:30of looks. Most times, in fact all the
- 44:33time, that the difference in their Christian experience is
- 44:38the measure of glory that one has been able to press into as
- 44:43against the other one. Talk of the healing anointing,
- 44:46for instance. There are various levels and
- 44:49measures of the healing anointing.
- 44:51Talk about prospering God's way. There are various measures Talk
- 44:55about the wisdom of God. Talk about Kingdom influence
- 44:58commanding the anointing dominion over a territory and
- 45:02over a generation. All of these limitless
- 45:05possibilities are the heritage of the Saints in Christ.
- 45:08But that they are not released generically.
- 45:11Please look at me the way God blesses men.
- 45:14In fact, even the Word of God came as a seed.
- 45:17The Bible calls it the incorruptible seed of the Word
- 45:20of God. A measure of it is placed upon
- 45:23you. And then through faithfulness
- 45:26and a lot of other things that I'm going to be sharing, there
- 45:28is growth. It says grace and peace be
- 45:31multiplied. So you can have grace, you can
- 45:34have peace, but not to the level that allows you to do much for
- 45:38the Kingdom. Hallelujah.
- 45:41If you have in our understanding and as we use it here, if you
- 45:45have say 1000 naira recharge card and you want to make an
- 45:50international call for a prolonged period of time.
- 45:53It is possible your phone is recharged with your unit, but it
- 45:58may not last to survive the the cost, the running cost of making
- 46:03that international call eventually for most phones and
- 46:07most networks, as your credit is depleting, you're going to hear
- 46:12a beep and it's going to tell you you have one minute
- 46:14remaining or you have this or you do not have sufficient
- 46:17credit to make this call. The call is possible.
- 46:21The problem is not with the network is that you do not have
- 46:23enough credit stored in your phone to make that call, whereas
- 46:27another person will pick up the call and there is no difference
- 46:30whether he's talking in Nigeria, whether he's talking because of
- 46:34the abundance of the credit that has been invested.
- 46:37Did you know you can pick up the latest iPhone and yet it may not
- 46:41have sufficient credit. The latest iPhone with a 500
- 46:46naira credit loaded in the SIM card that powers it will be as
- 46:51powerless. Are we together now?
- 46:53Yes, the the cost of the phone does not automatically allow for
- 47:01calls. Unfortunately, someone can pick
- 47:04up a far less phone in terms of the how expensive it is, but
- 47:09loaded with say a 10,000 naira recharge card and you pick it up
- 47:13and he can make his call freely. That's how we are.
- 47:16The vessels may be frail, but there can be such a rich deposit
- 47:21of spiritual investment. You will be able to call and
- 47:24nations will hear, not because of the size, but because you
- 47:29have invested something glorious within.
- 47:32And someone else, for instance, may have such a lustrous
- 47:35appearance, but be very empty with little or nothing within
- 47:40your spirit. You shout on the realm of the
- 47:42spirit does not echo back. It's like a register favor.
- 47:46You don't hear yes Sir. Goodness, you don't hear yes
- 47:49Sir, increase you don't hear yes Sir.
- 47:51And another person will come, very unassuming, but one who's
- 47:55mastered the dynamics of invest in glory.
- 47:58You call upon one man and nations will respond and say,
- 48:02where are you? Where are you?
- 48:04We are being instructed by God to respond to that weight of
- 48:08glory. So glory is in weights, and it
- 48:11is in measures, and to the degree to which you press in the
- 48:15spirit, that is the degree to which your command of dominion
- 48:19becomes visible to your world. Let me say that again, the
- 48:23degree to which you press in the spirit for greater glory, for
- 48:28heavier weights of this investment, that is the degree
- 48:32to which your command of dominion will become manifest
- 48:36and evident to your world, takes more than desire, takes more
- 48:42than shouting, takes more than singing.
- 48:45If your voice is to carry power, if your hands are to carry
- 48:50power, if your mind is to be a storehouse of wisdom, superior
- 48:55destiny, defining wisdom, then you have to understand the
- 48:59concept of ever increasing glory.
- 49:05Ever increasing glory in Proverbs chapter 4 and verse 18.
- 49:13Please sit down. The Bible says the path of the
- 49:16just is as the shining light and it shines more and more onto the
- 49:22perfect day. That is your heritage in Christ.
- 49:25That is MyHeritage in Christ that my life should never be up
- 49:29today and down tomorrow. No believer in Christ who has
- 49:34this understanding should desire your past as against your
- 49:38future. No matter how glorious my
- 49:41yesterday was, it can never be compared to my future.
- 49:45I know for a Shorty that my best days are are before me, no
- 49:49matter how glorious. You know, sometimes I meditate
- 49:52on the goodness of God, the things that he's done this year
- 49:55alone. But I tell you, it's nothing to
- 49:57be compared for the believer you were designed.
- 50:00You know why God did not give you eyes at the back of your
- 50:03head? Because it did not expect you to
- 50:05look back. No matter how you turn, you
- 50:10cannot turn your head. 360 You may turn enough to draw lessons,
- 50:15but not to be distracted. There is a reason why God did
- 50:19not put eyes at the back. He expects you to look forward,
- 50:24to look forward regardless. Yesterday to look forward is
- 50:32someone learning. So it's in a corporate destiny
- 50:34in Christ to go forward. It was Job, I believe that says
- 50:38though your beginning be small. I think that's 8:00 and 7:00.
- 50:42AM I right on that though your beginning be small?
- 50:46It says that your latter end should greatly increase Job 87,
- 50:51though your beginning be small financially, ministerially in
- 50:56life and destiny. You may come from a family with
- 50:58no nobility, no notoriety, nothing to write home about, but
- 51:02the Bible says it's in your corporate destiny that your
- 51:05latter end. Don't laugh at my today.
- 51:07The result is not in today, you just respect tomorrow.
- 51:10It says the latter end should greatly increase.
- 51:14Hallelujah, the glory of God rests on men in measures.
- 51:19But you see, ladies and gentlemen, wishing for greater
- 51:22glory, meaning greater anointing, greater wisdom.
- 51:26I was praying with, you know, a family in diaspora yesterday.
- 51:31I believed into this morning, and one of the things I was
- 51:34teaching them is that it takes more than desire to manifest
- 51:39possibilities in the Kingdom. It takes more than desire.
- 51:43You have to understand the mysteries of the Kingdom, and
- 51:46I've taught you that There are three levels of knowledge.
- 51:49Let me digress for one minute again to drum it to your spirit.
- 51:53There are three levels of knowledge the believer must
- 51:56press into if you want to manifest dominion and victory #1
- 52:01the highest level of knowledge is spiritual knowledge, the
- 52:05knowledge of God. The highest level of knowledge a
- 52:09man can press into is the knowledge of God.
- 52:12The fear of the Lord the Bible says is the beginning of wisdom.
- 52:16Then it says the knowledge of the Holy is understanding.
- 52:22Daniel 11 and 32 the B part says But the people that do know
- 52:26their God not do talk about their God, not do right about
- 52:30their God, not do sing about their God.
- 52:33The people that do know they are God, they shall be strong, and
- 52:38they shall do exploits. John 17.
- 52:41Three, Jesus is praying, He says, this is life eternal, that
- 52:45they may know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom
- 52:50thou has sent. At the zenith of his Apostolic
- 52:54ministry, Paul's prayer was not for a greater house, a greater
- 52:58Christ said, that I may know him, and the power of his
- 53:01resurrection that I may know him.
- 53:04That was his desire. The true wealth of a believer is
- 53:08a rich bank, a deposit of the knowledge of God.
- 53:12And I've taught you that the primary way to know God is true
- 53:15Scripture. The knowledge of God is captured
- 53:18within Scripture. As you study scripture, you
- 53:22learn God. As you study the names of God,
- 53:26you learn God. You find captured within
- 53:29Scripture the nature of God. Psalm One, O 3, for instance,
- 53:33gives us about the richest biblical capture of the nature
- 53:37of God compressed in one chapter.
- 53:41When you read Psalm One O 3 from beginning to the end.
- 53:44In my study of Scripture, this is about the chapter that
- 53:48contains the richest expression of the nature of God.
- 53:52If you want to understand the God of the Bible, then read
- 53:56Psalm One, O 3 from verse one to the end.
- 53:59It brings out the attributes of God, His goodness, His mercy
- 54:03that He suffers long, and so on and so forth #2 the second level
- 54:08of knowledge. Only secondary to the knowledge
- 54:11of God, is the knowledge of the mysteries of the Kingdom.
- 54:17Matthew 1311. It has been given unto you to
- 54:20know the wardiest epicnosis, to come into oneness, not just to
- 54:25be aware, to come into oneness with the mysteries of the
- 54:30Kingdom. Like a man cannot be separated
- 54:33from his shadow. Where you move, the shadow is.
- 54:36You are one with that shadow. You can be one with that
- 54:39revelation, the knowledge of the mysteries of the Kingdom.
- 54:44It says, Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven, and canst
- 54:48thou establish the dominion thereof upon the earth?
- 54:51Job 3833. Do you know the laws of the
- 54:54heavens, and can you use it to regulate the earth?
- 54:58Do you know the laws of the universe, and can you use them
- 55:01to regulate the earth? This is very powerful.
- 55:09Hallelujah. So the knowledge of the
- 55:12mysteries of the Kingdom, the law of honor, the law of
- 55:15relationships, the law of diligence, the law of favor, the
- 55:19law of mental transformation, the law of the secret place, the
- 55:23mysteries of prayer and fasting, the law of warfare, these are
- 55:27all the mysteries of the Kingdom.
- 55:29The arsenals that if you find and you are taught to use them,
- 55:34you would produce a life of victory, the covenant of peace,
- 55:39the mystery of restoration, the mystery of the prophetic.
- 55:42I'm listening for you. The mysteries.
- 55:45A man can surround himself with these mysteries like Chariots,
- 55:49and you will begin to command one dimension of triumph after
- 55:53the other. There is what you can do that
- 55:56will cause a nation to hear you. There is what you can do that
- 56:00will cause the sick to be healed.
- 56:01Are we together? There is a way you can do
- 56:03business with God that will cause doors to open for you.
- 56:06There is what you can do that will make to desire to help you.
- 56:10Help does not come because you need it.
- 56:13Help comes because you provoke it.
- 57:00The way of victory is the believer's destiny, the way of
- 57:04an invincible, indomitable life. That's what God has designed for
- 57:09you and I listen, please, when I talk like this, take your mind
- 57:13away from being a preacher or standing on a pulpit.
- 57:17Sometimes believers do not receive precious words like this
- 57:21because they think or the way church has made it.
- 57:23Whenever you are talking about spiritual things of this sort,
- 57:27most times people think that you are referring to preachers.
- 57:32So when you talk about power, they think a powerful man of
- 57:35God. When you talk about wisdom, they
- 57:37think a wise man of God. When you think about prosperity,
- 57:41they think a prosperous man of God.
- 57:43For some reason we have limited the riches of the God life to
- 57:47preach him and the altar, but that's not the case.
- 57:52It should come from the word through the altar to every
- 57:57destiny. That's how God designed it.
- 58:02Are we together? Praise the name of the Lord,
- 58:06weights of glory. I'm going to give you 6 keys
- 58:09very quickly in my work with God, and I thank God for the
- 58:13privilege of having a rich heritage of fellowship with the
- 58:16Spirit. This is 1 great gift God has
- 58:19given me for which I am deeply grateful for the privilege of
- 58:24access to intimacy. It's a treasure.
- 58:28Make reference to my teaching Our Daily Bread.
- 58:31I teach you there that there are various supplies a man can get
- 58:36as a daily bread. 1 of it is the spiritual provision of His
- 58:40presence. The presence of God is a daily
- 58:45bread. Weightier dimensions of that
- 58:48presence can make all the difference in your life.
- 58:59I'll be listening for you a few keys in my walk with God and
- 59:03studying the life of men who have carried weightier levels of
- 59:08glory or weighty levels of glory.
- 59:11I have found these keys that I'm about to reveal to you
- 59:13consistent. There is no man walking in
- 59:17power, walking in unusual dimension of wisdom,
- 59:21understanding, revelation, walking in true Kingdom
- 59:24authority, manifesting true Kingdom, prosperity or influence
- 59:29or anything at all that captures and reflects the glory of God in
- 59:33and through a man who has ignored some or all of these
- 59:37keys and happy is a man that finds all these 6 keys and
- 59:41engages them. You will walk in levels of ever
- 59:44increasing glory. And that's my prayer for you,
- 59:47that in the name of Jesus men will look at your life like I
- 59:50will always pray. Your life will be a Bible study
- 59:54manual. I'm telling you this.
- 59:57Men will look at your life. It will become an object of
- 1:00:00discussion, not for gossip. They will literally pick several
- 1:00:04aspects of your life and use them to describe the majesty of
- 1:00:07God. They can pick wisdom as a case
- 1:00:09study, favor as a case study, speed as a case study,
- 1:00:14invincibility of your work as a case study.
- 1:00:18It is true. I believe this with all my
- 1:00:34heart. Are you ready?
- 1:00:37Hozanae, the nations will sing your praise.
- 1:00:46Hozanae creation will shout your praise.
- 1:00:55Hozanae, the nations will sing your praise.
- 1:01:05Hosanna Creation. Will shout your praise.
- 1:01:13Key number one, The first key that is responsible for greater
- 1:01:19glory in a man's life. If you desire to press for more
- 1:01:22of God, more of His power, His wisdom, His glory to be seen in
- 1:01:28your life, your home, your organization, the first key is
- 1:01:33yieldedness. Greater yieldedness, in fact,
- 1:01:37yieldedness and surrender. Yieldedness and surrender.
- 1:01:45Nobody will carry the more of God when you are not yielded.
- 1:01:50The more yielded you are as a vessel, the more broken, the
- 1:01:54more devoted, the more consecrated you are as a vessel.
- 1:01:59The deeper your level of devotion, the deeper your level
- 1:02:03of consecration your, the deeper your level of yieldedness,
- 1:02:06brokenness, surrender. That is the degree to which you
- 1:02:10will carry His glory and grace. Let me tell you this, ladies and
- 1:02:13gentlemen, you can find two people.
- 1:02:15One is able to command certain levels of spiritual
- 1:02:19possibilities. Where as the other may not be
- 1:02:21able to press that much, I can tell you the difference is not
- 1:02:24the love of Jesus for them. The same Lord is reached unto
- 1:02:27all. The difference is that one has
- 1:02:29decided to go deeper with God, deeper with God, deeper with
- 1:02:35God, deeper with God. One decided to take God
- 1:02:40seriously, take God seriously, take His presence seriously.
- 1:02:53Many people believe the deeper you press into God, it's a waste
- 1:02:58of your time. Most people believe when you
- 1:03:01press into God, it doesn't give you time to do other things that
- 1:03:04make you succeed. Well, it depends on what you are
- 1:03:07doing. But in my experience with God,
- 1:03:10some of the richest strategies that have moved my life to the
- 1:03:14place of glory and honor came from the secret place.
- 1:03:17I give you an instance. With all due respect, you know I
- 1:03:19was talking to my people. I said even if I people and just
- 1:03:22give them the songs that came from the secret place, by the
- 1:03:25message of God, I would never beg for bread with those songs.
- 1:03:28Now they're not for money, but I'm just telling you that there
- 1:03:32is wealth in his secret. This where this song came.
- 1:03:35Are we together now, Hosanna? Just an.
- 1:03:45Example Hosanna hosanna, hosanna hosanna the nations will sing.
- 1:04:01Your friends. Hosanna Hosanna, Creation will
- 1:04:09shout your friends now. Listen, don't ever carry that
- 1:04:15narrative that pressing into God reduces your value, that
- 1:04:20pressing into God wastes your time.
- 1:04:22Can I tell you this? I'm going to make a very bold
- 1:04:25statement and forgive me if it sounds arrogant.
- 1:04:27Do you know life was not supposed to be that hard?
- 1:04:31Is because our formula is wrong. Our formula to.
- 1:04:36Making it is wrong. Our formula that we're using to
- 1:04:41in a pursuit for greatness is wrong.
- 1:04:44Life was not supposed to be such an endless clueless burden.
- 1:04:49An intelligent God will not design life that way.
- 1:04:52But the secret to ease in life is found in His presence.
- 1:04:56Unfortunately, most of us give up His presence because we are
- 1:05:00trying to make it. We have not been told and taught
- 1:05:05that reaching out for his presence is like being given the
- 1:05:08gift of a gold mine. If I call you right now and I
- 1:05:12give you a gold mine or I call you and give you an oil well,
- 1:05:15what do you do? You jump around.
- 1:05:18It doesn't mean you need to go offshore and I'm, you know, and
- 1:05:21onshore and, and do all the work and, and dig and mine the oil
- 1:05:25out of gold or whatever. But you are already happy
- 1:05:28because to you an oil well equals wealth, and oil well
- 1:05:32means I'm made you a billionaire.
- 1:05:34But when we say go to the secret place, you drag yourself like
- 1:05:37you're going to become a failure, it's because most
- 1:05:40people do not know what happens in His presence.
- 1:05:42The presence of God is an incubation room is where destiny
- 1:05:46is like a hand resting upon her eggs.
- 1:05:49That's where miracles are hatched.
- 1:05:51That's where greater levels of the anointing rest upon a Man
- 1:05:57songs. Come out of his presence.
- 1:05:59Sermons come out of his presence, business ideas that
- 1:06:04are at that profit at a macro level.
- 1:06:07I'm not talking about subsistent living at a macro level where
- 1:06:11you feed nations presence. The anointing is derived.
- 1:06:18From his presence, boldness and faith.
- 1:06:21Faith that moves mountains. Not boldface, not empty talk.
- 1:06:26When you find a man speaks boldly is because you have met
- 1:06:30the king in the secret. You have met him in the secret
- 1:06:34when you. See his face?
- 1:06:36You can see any other face. When you hear his voice, the
- 1:06:43nations. Will hear your voice when you
- 1:06:46touch his hands. Your hands will bring great.
- 1:06:49Miracles. What separates men from men,
- 1:06:52what separates bodies from bodies, what separates voices
- 1:06:56from voices is not the sound, it's the the the glory, the
- 1:07:01weight of glory that's invested upon a man.
- 1:07:07Ladies and gentlemen, let. Me tell you this, I have found
- 1:07:10this in my. Walk with God.
- 1:07:11The presence of God is a treasure.
- 1:07:14It's a treasure we have. We have tampered the presence of
- 1:07:18God with religiosity. This is beyond just trying to
- 1:07:23show men you are spiritual. Don't tell me you're a man of
- 1:07:26His presence and you don't comfort with the riches of His
- 1:07:29presence. There are tokens.
- 1:07:33You never meet Him and live the same way.
- 1:07:36If you tell me you've met Him, I search for wisdom, I search for
- 1:07:40favor, I search for glory, for power.
- 1:07:43If I don't find these elements, you met something else.
- 1:07:52One worship minister can stain the presence.
- 1:07:55Of God and say, Father, not for money, but for your glory, just
- 1:07:59give me one song, just one one. And the Holy Ghost, do you know
- 1:08:05that they sing in heaven? Do you know that some of the
- 1:08:09songs on Earth and don't die, It's not because it was
- 1:08:12composed. It's because it came from
- 1:08:14heaven. And so it carries with it
- 1:08:16eternal life. It cannot die.
- 1:08:19There are songs that were sung before we were born.
- 1:08:22Those songs don't die because they came from a dimension that
- 1:08:25is beyond just conjuring notes. Presence of God, apostle.
- 1:08:33But I'm not a preacher. I'm.
- 1:08:34An architect. How do you?
- 1:08:35Think the designs come Ask Bisalil.
- 1:08:38It doesn't just come here. Thank God for college.
- 1:08:41College primed your mind and your creativity, but do you not
- 1:08:44know that the Tabernacle in the wilderness came as a blueprint?
- 1:08:48He received it in the presence of God.
- 1:08:50That's architecture right there. Make sure you build according to
- 1:08:55the pattern that was shown you on the mount.
- 1:09:01Hallelujah. How about the rod of Iran?
- 1:09:05I think I was sharing this in Mina, the rod of Iran.
- 1:09:07I hope you know the norm, the law of fruitfulness is that a
- 1:09:12tree, there must be root, there must be vine, there must be
- 1:09:16branches before there are fruits.
- 1:09:18It's impossible to have root. No root, no branch.
- 1:09:23And then I mean no vine, no branch, and then you have
- 1:09:25fruits. But the rod of Iran did not have
- 1:09:28root, but it had presents. Presents.
- 1:09:32It was dropped where the ark was.
- 1:09:35And by the Morrow, no seasons working there, they saw that it
- 1:09:39was already boarding. There are men, you will.
- 1:09:43Be angry with because you will see.
- 1:09:45Many processes that they seem to have jumped and it was an
- 1:09:49exemption God gave them as a gift for desiring His presence.
- 1:09:53That because you have invested time in my life, you will never
- 1:09:57spend 10 years to rise again. You took the time you would have
- 1:10:00spent investing in your destiny. You gave it to me as a seed.
- 1:10:04Now let me show you what I can do it's not a license for
- 1:10:08laziness is God's reward system is how God helps man so that the
- 1:10:13nations don't mock him show me a.
- 1:10:18Man who has taken God seriously. And does not become a voice to
- 1:10:22his generation. I show you a man who is lying.
- 1:10:25Lying. Are you listening to what I'm
- 1:10:34teaching you tonight? Most of the things that people
- 1:10:41look for can. Only be found in his presence.
- 1:10:47I have seen how fast. God can change a man.
- 1:10:49'S life, I'm telling you sometimes is is almost sham like
- 1:10:56for want of word. I have seen people's lives
- 1:10:59change overnight. And this is not some church
- 1:11:01gibberish. No, I have seen people's life
- 1:11:04change by the power of God. I have seen them encounter one
- 1:11:09person who was used by God to lift them.
- 1:11:12But I can tell you this, you can look for that one person without
- 1:11:15God's help and in your whole lifetime you will not find a
- 1:11:18person because there are things only His presence can do.
- 1:11:22Let me speak to preachers. If we spend half the time that
- 1:11:26we waste around investing in His presence, you will come out of
- 1:11:30that place with glory, weights of glory and power.
- 1:11:34You don't need to tell people they are you are anointed.
- 1:11:37They are not blind. The anointed is 1 spiritual
- 1:11:40quality that cannot be hidden. When you carry it, it speaks,
- 1:11:45speaks. When you become anointed, even
- 1:11:49when you lie down to sleep. Men will wake you and say there
- 1:11:51is a storm, help us throw that storm away.
- 1:11:55The man who is anointed cannot be irrelevant.
- 1:11:58Even if you go to bed to sleep, men will come and wake you and
- 1:12:02say you are still relevant. Wake up and help us drive this
- 1:12:06storm. That's what they did with Jesus.
- 1:12:11There is. Always space for the man who is.
- 1:12:14Anointed always. There's always room for the man
- 1:12:17who is anointed. I'm praying for you as you hear.
- 1:12:22Me teach tonight. Everything that has distracted
- 1:12:25you from his presence may be a sincere desire to make it.
- 1:12:28You've spent time in his presence and it looks like
- 1:12:31nothing is adding up and you're saying you know what is this
- 1:12:33thing about God investing time in prayer worship the word of
- 1:12:37God is not really yielding. Let me just look forward to
- 1:12:41manifestation. I pray for you, the grace to
- 1:12:43return back to the place of power.
- 1:12:46The grace will return back to the secret place.
- 1:12:48Hear me, someone who is falling online.
- 1:12:50The grace will return back. The Best of You was produced.
- 1:12:55When you stayed in his presence. You live his presence.
- 1:12:59It's like the fish living water. You live his presence.
- 1:13:02It's like an it's like, it's like an, an antelope going to a
- 1:13:05lion's den and expecting to survive in the name of Jesus
- 1:13:11fresh. Grace for his.
- 1:13:13Presence, fresh grace for devotion, fresh grace to love
- 1:13:18Him, fresh grace to spend time in prayer, fresh grace to spend
- 1:13:23time with the world, that you will love him more than your
- 1:13:26necessary food. I prayed from my heart for you
- 1:13:30in the name of Jesus and like He gave me.
- 1:13:35Some of you will go to the secret.
- 1:13:37And God will open up the road map for the next 10 years of
- 1:13:41your life. I tell you this, you will go to
- 1:13:43the secret and God will tell you this is what will happen in
- 1:13:46Nigeria for the next 10 years. This is how to align.
- 1:13:49This is what will happen in your field.
- 1:13:51This is what will happen in your business.
- 1:13:53It's in it. In your Bible it says call on to
- 1:13:56me and I will answer it didn't expect me.
- 1:13:58Call on to me and I will show you, show you, show you show
- 1:14:03you. I will show you the future.
- 1:14:06You will not wait for trends, you will create it.
- 1:14:09I will show you great and mighty things.
- 1:14:13I will show you what will become of ministry in the next 10
- 1:14:16years. I will show you what will become
- 1:14:18of business. I will show you what will become
- 1:14:20of the economy of nations. I will show you is the gift you
- 1:14:24get in my presence. The song that they just sang for
- 1:14:41you, I was not preparing. To write a song, I was just
- 1:14:45worshipping. Just worshipping.
- 1:14:49I wrote the other parts. But the part I did not.
- 1:14:52Write was the hosanna. I had it and I just built on it
- 1:14:57just in the place of worship pressing.
- 1:14:59I was not even playing any instrument.
- 1:15:01Lord, I love you and thank you. Praying for the convention
- 1:15:04coming, praying for Koinonia and there you are given access to
- 1:15:09hear the sound of angels and that's where I had that song.
- 1:15:12That was the only thing I had hosanna.
- 1:15:16That was what? I heard hosannae, hosannae,
- 1:15:31hosannae the nations will sing your praise, Hosannae creation
- 1:15:44will. Shout your praise.
- 1:15:49Only God knows what else you should hear and bring to our
- 1:15:53world. Only God knows what you should
- 1:15:56touch and bring to our wall. Only God knows the kind of
- 1:15:59superior technology in the realm of the Spirit, waiting for a
- 1:16:03presence, caring believer, not just a scientist.
- 1:16:07Only God knows the witty inventions, the strategies in
- 1:16:11the Spirit, the blueprint for the next season.
- 1:16:13Let me tell you, ladies and gentlemen, there is value in His
- 1:16:17presence, destiny, defining value.
- 1:16:20You don't go down seeking his face.
- 1:16:24You don't go down loving him and pressing with reckless
- 1:16:28abandonment. You're going to pray one prayer
- 1:16:35very quickly, Father. Grant me access to your presence
- 1:16:41in at a deeper level. At a deeper level, let me hear
- 1:16:46the sound of angels, or let me hear Give me tokens in the
- 1:16:50secret place. Let me have access to the realm
- 1:16:54of the Spirit where I will hear sounds that are not given to
- 1:16:58mortal men to hear. Give me the gift of your
- 1:17:01presence. Go ahead and pray.
- 1:17:27Hallelujah. Proverbs 25.
- 1:17:31Verse 4 amplified. Proverbs 24 please sit down.
- 1:17:36Proverbs 25 and verse 4. Take away the drawers from the
- 1:17:44silver, and there shall come forth a material for a vessel
- 1:17:50for the silversmith to walk up. KJV says take away the draws
- 1:17:59from the silver, and they shall comfort a vessel for the finer.
- 1:18:05Take away the draws from the preacher, and you would have
- 1:18:09produced a more powerful preacher.
- 1:18:11Take away the draws from the worship minister and you would
- 1:18:15have produced a more glorious minister.
- 1:18:18Take away the draws from the businessman and you would have
- 1:18:21produced a more exceptional businessman.
- 1:18:26There are weights of glory that God wants to bring.
- 1:18:30Upon his body, upon ministers of the gospel, upon businessmen,
- 1:18:35upon ordinary men, supposedly. I'm telling you, you will see
- 1:18:39men who will carry glory in ways that would dumbfound
- 1:18:42principalities and power. I'm telling you this by the
- 1:18:45Spirit of Prophecy. Young men, old men, young women,
- 1:18:50old women, young boys, young girls, educated, uneducated in
- 1:18:55technology, in business, in politics, ministers of the
- 1:19:00gospel across the fivefold worshippers, men and women who
- 1:19:04will carry presents. Their words will be like the
- 1:19:07word of God. They will speak and it will
- 1:19:09Pierce through systems. It will penetrate the systems
- 1:19:14and structures. It will happen by the spirit #2
- 1:19:27Please be seated. The second key.
- 1:19:33You desire to cry for greater glory in addition to your
- 1:19:38yieldedness, your brokenness, and your surrender.
- 1:19:41Are you ready? Greater light, Greater light, a
- 1:19:47press for higher levels of spiritual illumination, a press
- 1:19:54for higher levels of spiritual illumination.
- 1:19:59And God made 2 great. Lights.
- 1:20:02One to rule the day and the other to rule the night.
- 1:20:09And then he made the stars. Also there were lights, but he
- 1:20:13made 2 great lights. Genesis 1.
- 1:20:17The greater to rule the day, the lesser to rule the night.
- 1:20:22If you carry that great light, you will rule your day and you
- 1:20:27will rule your night. Are we together now when it is
- 1:20:33pitch black in the night, as it is in our world?
- 1:20:38No matter how tall you are, how short you are, how fair you are,
- 1:20:43how dark you are, how educated or otherwise you are, if you can
- 1:20:47look up, you will be able to see the stars because they're in an
- 1:20:51altitude that is so high, high and unmistakable.
- 1:20:57You look at it, you have to see it.
- 1:20:58That's how the destiny of a man who stays with God light
- 1:21:02elevates. It lifts you beyond the realm of
- 1:21:05nominal living and takes you to a height, a frequency in the
- 1:21:10spirit where you are always supernatural.
- 1:21:13Someone say greater light. Shout it like you're following
- 1:21:17me tonight. Say greater light, greater
- 1:21:20light, greater light. For as long as I.
- 1:21:23Live. I will approach the Bible as if
- 1:21:25I've never read it for as long as I live, I will approach what
- 1:21:29compliant materials like I've never read it.
- 1:21:32I have an unquenchable appetite to know.
- 1:21:36Do you know the grace I taught you last week?
- 1:21:40The grace to know that you do not know is a gift itself.
- 1:21:46When you do not know why you do not know.
- 1:21:48That you do not know. You are in trouble already.
- 1:21:52The greater darkness. Is the lack of consciousness.
- 1:21:55Of your ignorance, the awareness.
- 1:21:59That's why ignorance is. Already a miracle on its own
- 1:22:05greater light. Greater light if.
- 1:22:08Any man think that he knows anything?
- 1:22:10First Corinthians 8 two let him know that he know it not as he
- 1:22:14ought to know. Ladies and gentlemen, glory
- 1:22:19carriers in this end time will be men and women who are full of
- 1:22:22light. Light here refers to high level
- 1:22:25spiritual illumination as we we press towards the final days,
- 1:22:32the end times, the final days. Let me tell you this ladies and
- 1:22:36gentlemen, the Bible says knowledge shall increase.
- 1:22:39It doesn't always have to be demonic knowledge.
- 1:22:41The knowledge of the holy, the knowledge of the mysteries of
- 1:22:44the Kingdom. Men and women will access light
- 1:22:47from the spirit and they will gain command of things upon the
- 1:22:51earth in a way a dimension that can only be described as God
- 1:22:55like you wait and see. There are men who will receive
- 1:22:59mistress in the spirit and will command financial possibilities
- 1:23:03on earth that will surprise men. There are men who will gain
- 1:23:06command of things upon the earth on account of the lights that
- 1:23:10they get in the spirit. Isaiah chapter 60 and verse one
- 1:23:13arise. It says shine, you never stay
- 1:23:16down. When your light comes, your
- 1:23:19light is come, and the glory of the Lord is.
- 1:23:21Risen upon you. The Bible says, but the people
- 1:23:23that sat in darkness, it says to them light has come.
- 1:23:29And those who sat. At the valley of the shadow of
- 1:23:32death, how do you sit there and you are comfortable?
- 1:23:35Because in darkness you don't know the difference between good
- 1:23:38and evil. But when light comes, it
- 1:23:41distinguishes. The Bible says the definition of
- 1:23:44light. Till today's science has not
- 1:23:47been able to give us an intelligent definition of light.
- 1:23:51They only use its qualities or its numerical figure to describe
- 1:23:55it. But the Bible defines light as
- 1:23:57that which makes manifest. It says that which makes
- 1:24:01manifest is light. Whatever can reveal is light.
- 1:24:08Whatever can reveal a man's glorious destiny is.
- 1:24:12Light. Whatever can reveal what is
- 1:24:14hidden within you for the nations to see is light.
- 1:24:19Ladies and gentlemen, we are in. Very.
- 1:24:21Prophetic seasons in the body of Christ, there's no time for
- 1:24:25guesswork and inaccurate understanding.
- 1:24:28This is the time to put your house in order in terms of light
- 1:24:32and illumination. Find out what you do not know.
- 1:24:35Find out how things work. Don't assume.
- 1:24:39Find out what you do not know. Why is favor not working in my
- 1:24:43life? I know one day to.
- 1:24:45Walk no Find out Proverbs 18 and verse one through desire a man,
- 1:24:51any man, a desperate man, a hungry man, a determined man
- 1:24:56haven't separated himself. He seeketh and intimate let with
- 1:25:01all wisdom and there is a law in Matthew 7, seven and eight he
- 1:25:04says for everyone that seeketh findeth.
- 1:25:09If you search for it with all your heart, you will find it.
- 1:25:12You will find the secrets. Job said in the days of my youth
- 1:25:15when the secrets of the Lord were upon my Tabernacle.
- 1:25:19The secrets of the Lord, as with them that fear him, and He will
- 1:25:22show them His covenants. Please press for knowledge.
- 1:25:26Please press for knowledge. Listen to materials.
- 1:25:30Don't be in a hurry to learn everything.
- 1:25:32Take your life methodically. I've taught you.
- 1:25:35Make reference to my teaching. Line up online.
- 1:25:39The power of structured knowledge line upon line.
- 1:25:43If you're learning about prayer, press all the way.
- 1:25:46Get what you can learn there. You're learning about the
- 1:25:49supremacy of the word of God, how Bible faith works, how favor
- 1:25:53comes, how how to coordinate men so that they gravitate towards
- 1:25:58you for your rising, your profiting.
- 1:26:00There are spiritual dynamics that control this.
- 1:26:03When you say you have dominion, it's not just a cliche.
- 1:26:07Dominion is a resultant effect of your accessing the mysteries
- 1:26:12of the Kingdom. When you possess the mysteries
- 1:26:15of the Kingdom, your life inevitably will command
- 1:26:19dominion. Greater light, it's my prayer
- 1:26:26for you. In the name of Jesus that
- 1:26:29everything that looks like an arrival mentality that will not
- 1:26:32let you go forward I I marvel at the life of Paul.
- 1:26:36Paul's life tames the pride of many because this was a man who
- 1:26:41even before he encountered the God of the Bible, he was a
- 1:26:44Pharisee par excellence, a doctor of the law, noble,
- 1:26:49intelligent, articulate. Many of the other disciples were
- 1:26:54largely illiterate. They were businessmen, but they
- 1:26:57did not have structured knowledge.
- 1:26:59But Paul was a learned colleague.
- 1:27:02He stretched education as available in his time to the
- 1:27:05highest. So when he encountered Jesus the
- 1:27:09Holy Ghost did not delete his brain, he only addicted what was
- 1:27:12not what compliant and used the knowledge bank in his mind and
- 1:27:17turned it like a turbo engine and drove Paul to a life of
- 1:27:22victory. Paul would speak and Peter would
- 1:27:24look at him and say kite. This is a hard saying if not
- 1:27:27because I trust your encounter without you Paul, a custodian of
- 1:27:34the mistress of the Kingdom. Ephesians 3/3 He says how that
- 1:27:38when we read, we will understand and appreciate His knowledge in
- 1:27:43the mysteries. Verse 4, which was not given
- 1:27:48before this time. Verse 5 Now in time pass, it was
- 1:27:51not given known to the sons of man, but it is now revealed unto
- 1:27:55His holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit.
- 1:27:59The mystery among other things, is found in verse 9.
- 1:28:01To make all men see. It's a grace God gave Him to
- 1:28:05make all men see. I told you that that which makes
- 1:28:09manifest is light. Obtain grace from God.
- 1:28:19Press for knowledge. Cry for knowledge, not useless
- 1:28:23knowledge, not boastful knowledge that cannot deliver in
- 1:28:26the face of situations. Remember, there are false lights
- 1:28:29and there are two lights, true lights.
- 1:28:31The Bible makes that this, that, that, that, that disparity.
- 1:28:35It distinguishes it. It says that was the true light
- 1:28:39that lighted every man. It says to beware less.
- 1:28:43What you call light be darkness. You can call something like a
- 1:28:47body of information that you celebrate emotionally and
- 1:28:51generously, but it's not able to deliver for you victory.
- 1:28:54If it is light, it must eventually deliver for you
- 1:28:58victory and bring you to a place of dominion.
- 1:29:01Someone cry for light in one minute.
- 1:29:03Lord, I decree and declare, by the power of the Holy Spirit, my
- 1:29:07heart is open to be enlightened. Ephesians 116 to 19.
- 1:29:13Go ahead and pray. I receive light.
- 1:29:16I receive light. I receive light.
- 1:29:20Light that. Bails me out of a life of
- 1:29:24struggling. Light that bails me out of a
- 1:29:27life of slumber. Lights that bails me out from a
- 1:29:31life of worry and pain and fear. There is a way out.
- 1:29:43In Jesus name we pray key number.
- 1:29:46Three very quickly. What is the key?
- 1:29:50That controls greater levels. And greater measures of glory.
- 1:29:54Are you ready for this? Humility, humility.
- 1:30:00Humility, humility. Proverbs, 2923.
- 1:30:12Humility. It is one neglected secret that
- 1:30:17I have found in my work with God and I have found in the lives of
- 1:30:21those who have truly worked with God.
- 1:30:24The Bible says a man's pride shall bring him low, but honor
- 1:30:30shall uphold the humble in spirit.
- 1:30:33Who is learning a man's pride, a business man's pride, a
- 1:30:37preacher's pride, a believer's pride, a Nigerian's pride, an
- 1:30:43African's pride and European's pride.
- 1:30:46It doesn't matter where a man's pride.
- 1:30:49Keep that scripture please. Let's look at it again.
- 1:30:51Can you give us any other version?
- 1:30:53Let's see if there's another version and what else it says.
- 1:30:56It says pride ends in humiliation.
- 1:30:58You hear what NLC is saying? Pride ends in humiliation while
- 1:31:03humility brings. Talk to me, believers, humility
- 1:31:07brings. So when the devil wants to
- 1:31:10humiliate you, he chants the course of pride and he will
- 1:31:15cause you to walk in it, and for a while you will seem like you
- 1:31:19are enjoying yourself until the tides turn.
- 1:31:29Humility first Peter chapter 5 and.
- 1:31:32Verse 6 was a lesson God taught me early in life.
- 1:31:37Humble yourselves. Therefore, under the mighty hand
- 1:31:40of God, the Bible says that He may exalt you in due time.
- 1:31:44Look at that scripture very well.
- 1:31:46Humble yourself. It didn't just say be humble, it
- 1:31:50says. Humble yourself.
- 1:31:52That means there is discipline in becoming humble.
- 1:31:55Humble yourself. It's a deliberate act that is
- 1:31:59sponsored by a more superior revelation.
- 1:32:02Humble yourself and I've taught you in this house that there is
- 1:32:06a difference between humility and simplicity.
- 1:32:10If you bring a bottle of water for me, clean.
- 1:32:12Water and you. Bring another water where I
- 1:32:14don't know where it came from. I will not drink that water
- 1:32:17because I'm no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
- 1:32:20Are we together now? There are many.
- 1:32:22People who mistaken. Simplicity for humility.
- 1:32:26You can be simple and proud, you can be poor and proud.
- 1:32:31It's just that you don't have the tools to express the pride
- 1:32:33because of poverty. Boy, you are still proud.
- 1:32:36Are we together? Don't miss taking bankruptcy of
- 1:32:46resources to. Express pride as humility.
- 1:32:49No, you just don't have the tools to manifest it.
- 1:32:55Our world is full of very arrogant.
- 1:32:56People and I. Told you when pride and
- 1:32:59ignorance become A tag team, they translate to a padlock that
- 1:33:04closes a door and seals it, meaning no going forward for
- 1:33:09you. Pride itself is dangerous,
- 1:33:13Ignorance is dangerous. But when pride and ignorance now
- 1:33:16comes together, they peg you at a level there are not.
- 1:33:23Many things that makes God to fight men.
- 1:33:25One of it is pride. The Bible says God resisted the
- 1:33:29proud. Give it to us.
- 1:33:31James 4 read verse 6. Then we jump to verse 10.
- 1:33:34But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he said God resisted
- 1:33:39the proud. Look at me please.
- 1:33:41In your English understanding, what is the definition of
- 1:33:44resist? To resist means to become akin
- 1:33:48to a stumbling block. Are we together to inhibit
- 1:33:51motion or progress? That's what it means to resist
- 1:33:55to over power so that progress is not achieved.
- 1:33:58That's what it means to resist. So when the Bible says God
- 1:34:01resisted or opposes the proud, who are you going to pray for?
- 1:34:06What anointing are you going to use to change his hand when he's
- 1:34:09the one pegging you? The anointing does not fight
- 1:34:13God, it only fights what is Antichrist.
- 1:34:15But if God is the source of that opposition, then you are in
- 1:34:19trouble. Only the prayer of mercy from a
- 1:34:22broken and a repentant heart can save you.
- 1:34:26Can I tell you this? There's something mysterious
- 1:34:28I've learnt about God. There are many, many people
- 1:34:31today who are binding and casting.
- 1:34:33But I tell you, the hand that is stopping them from making
- 1:34:36progress is not Satan is God himself and he's doing it as an
- 1:34:40act of mercy because if he should release them with that
- 1:34:43level of ignorance, they are going to become a casualty to
- 1:34:46themselves and to others. So God will limit their progress
- 1:34:50until is proper diagnosis, until they find out that pride they
- 1:34:55cannot win. Then He now clears the way for
- 1:34:58them. God opposes the proud, but he
- 1:35:02gives grace to the humble. Give us verse 10.
- 1:35:05Humble yourself in the sight of the Lord and he shall lift you
- 1:35:09up. Show me a man who is truly.
- 1:35:13Humble. Perhaps I should?
- 1:35:14Define for you what humility is. Humility is the conscious
- 1:35:20acknowledgement. The conscious acknowledgement of
- 1:35:25God as the principal factor in your life for your rising, for
- 1:35:32your excelling, is called humility.
- 1:35:35The conscious acknowledgement of God as the principal factor for
- 1:35:44your rising, as against self. When you acknowledge self, pride
- 1:35:52and boasting is a reaction, a reaction that is sponsored by
- 1:35:57this mentality that it is by my power and the might of my hand
- 1:36:02that I have risen. Humility is also a reaction that
- 1:36:06is sponsored by an orientation that except the Lord builds a
- 1:36:10house, the labor in vain that build it.
- 1:36:13Except the Lord watches over a city, the Watchmen watch it, but
- 1:36:17in vain. It says it is vain to wake up
- 1:36:20early and to sleep later at night, only to eat the bread of
- 1:36:24sorrow. But he giveth his beloved sleep,
- 1:36:28I am convinced. That if God takes a.
- 1:36:32Step out of my life. I will fade like a leaf in the
- 1:36:36presence of everybody, so much so that men will wander and say
- 1:36:40what happened. So for me, my relationship with
- 1:36:43God is not just for ministry success, it's not just for
- 1:36:47financial success. It's a matter of life and death.
- 1:36:51God minus Joshua Salman is a disaster, a sight you don't want
- 1:36:56to see. Or Joshua Salman minus God.
- 1:36:59I meant to say, are we together? He's the one who really does.
- 1:37:03Not need me. But I need him eternally.
- 1:37:07Are we together now, Joshua? Salman minus God.
- 1:37:11You just saw a failure in front of you.
- 1:37:14Don't trust that man minus God. He will lead you to nonsense.
- 1:37:18He does not have sufficient wisdom, no, for me and God, we
- 1:37:23can't fail together. We're an invincible team.
- 1:37:27Particularly that he's the senior partner like David
- 1:37:31Yongicho taught us. He's the one in front.
- 1:37:41Humility. Pride.
- 1:37:44Is a very. Natural thing with.
- 1:37:47Men, whether there's achievement to back it or not.
- 1:37:51It's a usual thing. You see pride from a
- 1:37:55psychological standpoint, he says.
- 1:37:57Is, is, is a coping mechanism. It's actually a coping
- 1:38:02mechanism. Is a is a supposed survival
- 1:38:05strategy. When we come from families where
- 1:38:08we don't really, where we've not amounted to much because we live
- 1:38:12in a world where the there's disparity financially, you know,
- 1:38:17economically in terms of stratification.
- 1:38:19The human spirit generally does not embrace the fact that you
- 1:38:24are not making it, especially where there are options in front
- 1:38:27of you of people who are excelling.
- 1:38:29So most times people try to use pride as a coping mechanism.
- 1:38:34They immediately they look at people, they want to look at
- 1:38:37what they have that the people do not have, and they try to
- 1:38:40amplify it as a way of healing. It's a coping mechanism.
- 1:38:45And then #2 most people, because they are not trained well, the
- 1:38:50moment they begin to achieve things, they, they love praises
- 1:38:55coming to them. And because of that, what they
- 1:38:58do is they either do it themselves or surround
- 1:39:01themselves with people who consistently sing their praises.
- 1:39:07It's a. It's a defect.
- 1:39:10With the fallen man, it is not unusual or it's not usual to be
- 1:39:15humble. When you find somebody who is
- 1:39:17humble, either the person has not been tempted, the person is
- 1:39:22not yet aware of what he or she has and can do.
- 1:39:27You see that now? It takes an extra effort in
- 1:39:30righteousness to remain humble, especially when you have
- 1:39:33results. Let me tell you the truth, if
- 1:39:36there's any man of God or any great person around your life
- 1:39:38that you know, I give you a permanent prayer point for them
- 1:39:42if you ever praying for them. Don't just pray for fresh fire
- 1:39:45and greater grace. Pray for the fortitude to remain
- 1:39:48humble even in the midst of greatness.
- 1:39:52Now I tell you this, there are consequences to being humble.
- 1:39:54Unfortunately, I must admit that before you when you walk in
- 1:39:58humility many times, many times it has a side effect.
- 1:40:03The side effect is that most times you will be
- 1:40:05underestimated, but leave God to balance it up.
- 1:40:08It's the pressure to want to say, do you know who I am?
- 1:40:11Is it because I'm quiet here I am director this don't worry,
- 1:40:15don't worry. God has a beautiful way of
- 1:40:18announcing you when you are humble is false.
- 1:40:21Some reason, especially in Africa, we only celebrate pride
- 1:40:25once people are humble. The energy that comes from
- 1:40:29humility is not pleasant to many people they like.
- 1:40:32It's like they like pride and even oppression.
- 1:40:35It's a very strange thing, but the more you seem to oppress
- 1:40:38people, the more they seem to enjoy it.
- 1:40:42Are we together? Stand here, do it this way you
- 1:40:45find. Out the person becomes an object
- 1:40:47of admiration. But when you say let's sit
- 1:40:49together and eat the next thing, they will steal all the meat
- 1:40:52while you are there. But.
- 1:40:56Nevertheless, brothers and sisters.
- 1:40:58The value of humility versus the consequences of pride is like
- 1:41:02day and night. I pray for you like I pray for
- 1:41:04myself in the name of Jesus, the grace to be genuinely humble.
- 1:41:09Not pretentiously humble. Genuinely humble in the midst of
- 1:41:14plenty, genuinely humble in the midst of lifting.
- 1:41:17I release that grace upon you now that.
- 1:41:22Men will so underestimate you until.
- 1:41:25Your walks go before you and they'll say you mean this woman
- 1:41:28is the owner of this, this man is the owner of this, this is
- 1:41:32the one controlling this, and he or she is this.
- 1:41:35Humble. Your life will be a lesson to
- 1:41:37many people in the name of Jesus Christ.
- 1:41:40You will be captain over many and yet it will not steal your
- 1:41:43heart from God. You will have many and still
- 1:41:46roll before God on the ground. You will have plenty and still
- 1:41:49roll before God on the ground. I pray that for you in Jesus
- 1:41:53name. Please run away from pride.
- 1:41:57Reject pride like you rejoice. Sickness.
- 1:41:59Like you reject cancer, Run away from it.
- 1:42:02It's a destroyer. My phone is full of text
- 1:42:08messages and I admit to you. People sending text messages
- 1:42:12from all over the world. Thank you apostle.
- 1:42:15Your message blessed me. You are this, you are that.
- 1:42:18Some even say you are the only man of God that I know and I
- 1:42:21trust you see those kind of statements and sometimes we are
- 1:42:25foolish to believe those things. You see that?
- 1:42:33Reminds me of politicians, isn't it?
- 1:42:36You look at the politician. And say you know you are the
- 1:42:37only one doing well, he said really you mean it.
- 1:42:39He's even believing that whereas a person is just looking for a
- 1:42:43job or looking for money. Receive wisdom in Jesus name.
- 1:42:51People will commend you in very. Generous ways they will.
- 1:42:54Tell lies generously, looking at your pocket while they say it.
- 1:42:58They will flatter you. Some will be sincere, but you
- 1:43:01must learn to manage. People appreciate them, but know
- 1:43:04what to allow into your heart and know what to throw out.
- 1:43:08The moment people try to put you side by side with God and say
- 1:43:11you know whether God helps you or not, you've already made it.
- 1:43:16You don't need to fight them. Just appreciate your ignorance
- 1:43:19and leave them. There and go back and say, God,
- 1:43:21I came in this place of prayer to correct a statement I had
- 1:43:24outside. Somebody tried to say, without
- 1:43:27you, I can still make it. Lord, I just want you to know
- 1:43:31that I didn't believe that statement.
- 1:43:33I didn't believe that statement. I just left the person.
- 1:43:37So he's not discouraged. What?
- 1:43:38As far as me and you are concerned, No, no.
- 1:43:44Hallelujah I. I truly believe without God I am
- 1:43:49nothing. This is not.
- 1:43:51It's not just a preacher's admission.
- 1:43:53Maybe a declaration is the truth.
- 1:43:55I have settled it in my heart. If God does not help Joshua
- 1:43:59Salman, there is no help for you anywhere.
- 1:44:02If God does not help Koinonia, there is no place for you in
- 1:44:06life and destiny. But if God helps you, who can
- 1:44:09stand against you? The sentiments of men
- 1:44:12notwithstanding, the biases of men notwithstanding, for
- 1:44:19someone, I sense you. Came to church and on hearing
- 1:44:21this word. Because you have been an
- 1:44:23intentional practitioner of humility, I want you to watch
- 1:44:27for the strange liftings that come to you these days.
- 1:44:30That before the years ended, pleasant surprises will come
- 1:44:34from everywhere. I'm speaking it to you
- 1:44:36prophetically. Pleasant surprises.
- 1:44:41You will be sleeping. While people are discussing your
- 1:44:44rising. I'm telling you someone, you
- 1:44:48will be on your bed sleeping. You are resting for the night
- 1:44:52and yet God is orchestrating a pod.
- 1:44:54They are sitting together talking about you, how to lift
- 1:44:58you, how to bless you, to keep you relevant in the name of
- 1:45:02Jesus Christ. Let me tell you this among the
- 1:45:09people who. You should never fight in your
- 1:45:11life. Is a humble person because when
- 1:45:14you fight a humble person it looks like you are winning till
- 1:45:18you see the hand that comes to a system you fight a man who is.
- 1:45:23Humble before God. You are fighting God.
- 1:45:28Eventually, God's hand will. Reach down, he won't carry.
- 1:45:31The man, it's you, he will carry and throw like that mountain
- 1:45:34that is cast to the sea and say my son, continue, keep moving.
- 1:45:39Anyone fighting you, fighting the hand of God upon your life.
- 1:45:43I pray for you from the depth of my heart.
- 1:45:45In the name of Jesus, first I declare the battle is not yours,
- 1:45:51God Himself. Will fight for you.
- 1:45:55And you will hold your peace, I said again, God himself will
- 1:45:59fight for you, and you will hold your peace.
- 1:46:02In Jesus name we pray. Please be seated.
- 1:46:08Please be seated. A humble.
- 1:46:10Man is 1. Man, to not try to fight you
- 1:46:14will only waste your time. I hope you know that humility
- 1:46:18was one of the weapons Jesus used, the Bible says in
- 1:46:22Philippians chapter 2 and verse. Five, it says.
- 1:46:24Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.
- 1:46:27Give it to us. Verse 6 it says 6 media who've
- 1:46:32been in the form of God. He taught it not robbery to be
- 1:46:36equal with God, meaning that it was not it was not unscriptural.
- 1:46:40It was not a violation of a divine ordinance to call himself
- 1:46:43God, however, as a strategy for his exaltation. 7 the Bible
- 1:46:49says, But he made himself. He was not made.
- 1:46:52He made himself of no reputation, and took upon him
- 1:46:57the form of his servant. Watch this, and was made in the
- 1:47:01likeness of man. Verse 8.
- 1:47:03The Bible says, I'm being found in the fashion of a man.
- 1:47:07He humbled who humbled him. He humbled himself and became
- 1:47:14obedient. Unto death.
- 1:47:17Even death on the cross, verse 9, Wherefore on account of that
- 1:47:21display of humility, God had so highly exalted him and given him
- 1:47:27a name that is above every name, verse 10 that at the name of
- 1:47:31Jesus every knee. The name Jesus is not the
- 1:47:34pronunciation Jesus. It is an invocation of the power
- 1:47:38that is resident with that office.
- 1:47:40The word name there means an office was given to him.
- 1:47:43It's the office he always had, but he had it without man.
- 1:47:47So he relinquished the office, came back, died, got it back
- 1:47:51with us in covenant that every. Knee should bow of things in
- 1:47:57heaven, earth. And the things under the earth
- 1:48:00verse 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ
- 1:48:03is Lord to the glory of the Father again received grace to
- 1:48:07be humble, particularly. When God begins to bless you
- 1:48:12financially. Financial blessings are it
- 1:48:16affords you to to make statements in a more visible
- 1:48:20way. If you are blessed
- 1:48:22intellectually, it's only when occasions allow you to speak
- 1:48:26that people would know you are brilliant.
- 1:48:28You know, if you are blessed spiritually, that's wonderful,
- 1:48:31but financially you can buy material things and people can
- 1:48:34see immediately. You can create evidences.
- 1:48:37So be careful. You can be a billionaire and
- 1:48:39still be humble. You can be a millionaire and
- 1:48:42still be humble. You can be a captain over a
- 1:48:44conglomerate and still be humble.
- 1:48:46You can have a great job and still be humble.
- 1:48:49To be humble does not mean to be foolish.
- 1:48:51To be humble does not mean to just let men ride on you.
- 1:48:54To be humble means to live perpetually.
- 1:48:57Having the acknowledgement that my life outside of God cannot
- 1:49:01will not amount to anything and to unashamedly let the nations
- 1:49:06know that he's the basis behind any rising, any lifting.
- 1:49:11It's a secret to an invincible life.
- 1:49:13Business people, I speak to you again, make sure when you are
- 1:49:16build houses, Deuteronomy chapter 8, when you read from
- 1:49:21verse 13 down to 18 that when you are build houses, your
- 1:49:24flocks multiply, your goods are multiplied.
- 1:49:28When everything you have is multiplied, then you will say to
- 1:49:32yourself, my power, your heart be lifted up, and you say my
- 1:49:36power and my might you forget the God who brought you, and so
- 1:49:40on and so forth. Verse 18 says For thou shalt
- 1:49:42remember the Lord your God. That's the key expression.
- 1:49:47Leave the issue. Of power to get wealth.
- 1:49:49Thou shalt remember, because in the midst of plenty men forget.
- 1:49:55Men forget in the. Presence of.
- 1:49:58Lifting men forget I have profound.
- 1:50:02Respect for people who are. Highly placed in life and they
- 1:50:07honor God and they are humble. My respect for them is at an
- 1:50:10accelerated level because they are surrounded with the things
- 1:50:14and the tools and the resources that tempt them away from
- 1:50:19acknowledging the Lordship of Christ.
- 1:50:21When you find a great man who is truly humble, please double your
- 1:50:24respect and your regard for such a person.
- 1:50:27I can tell you this. Hallelujah.
- 1:50:34David as. A king was rejoicing and
- 1:50:37dancing. And celebrating the Lord in a
- 1:50:40manner that was considered undignified and his wife looked
- 1:50:43at him, Saul's daughter and said, what is this David?
- 1:50:46Do you not realize you are king? Look at the shame you are
- 1:50:49bringing to yourself that because the arc of the Lord is
- 1:50:52returning. You are dancing like this.
- 1:50:54Why are you doing this? You are falling your hand.
- 1:50:56David looks at her and says, young girl, the palace has
- 1:51:00eroded from you the consciousness of his story.
- 1:51:02I'm dancing before the God that took the Kingdom from your
- 1:51:05father and gave it to me and did you know the the the end of that
- 1:51:11woman? She died barren Hosanna the.
- 1:51:19Nations will sing your. Praise Hosanna.
- 1:51:27Creation will shout your. Praise Lord Most High.
- 1:51:48Hosanna, the nations will sing your.
- 1:51:53Praise. Hosanna, a creation will shout
- 1:52:01your praise. Lord Most High, you are worthy
- 1:52:05to be praised. You are worthy to be praised.
- 1:52:11Lord Most High, you are worthy. To be praised, You are worthy.
- 1:52:20Hallelujah. That for me is.
- 1:52:24A posture of humility. You stand.
- 1:52:27Before your millions, before your billions, you stand before
- 1:52:30a congregation God has so given you.
- 1:52:32In your thousands and millions, you stand before the
- 1:52:35achievements, you stand before the awards, the academic
- 1:52:39accolades, and you lift your voice before the nations.
- 1:52:43That's why this song came by the Spirit.
- 1:52:45Don't just sing it, listen to the wordings.
- 1:52:48The nations will sing your praise and then creation.
- 1:52:52It says let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
- 1:52:57The plants are consistently. Praising the Lord while men.
- 1:53:00Argue the trees are consistently praising the Lord, while men
- 1:53:04argue The rivers are consistently praising the Lord
- 1:53:08while men argue No wonder they don't fail.
- 1:53:11Even though the leaves go down, they spring up again.
- 1:53:14Hosanna. Creation will shout your praise.
- 1:53:45Lord Most High, you are worthy to be praise.
- 1:53:51You are worthy. To be praise the Lord.
- 1:53:54Most High You are worthy to be praise.
- 1:53:59You are worthy to be praise. The.
- 1:55:36Let them laugh while you dance. Let them.
- 1:55:39Laugh while you clap. Let them laugh while you exalt
- 1:55:42him and then he comes to pick you right from where you are and
- 1:55:48keep exalting you. Listen, I was told that Papa
- 1:55:53Kenneth Copeland met with God servant Bishop David Oedipo and
- 1:55:57he said to him that you claim we are the ones who taught you the
- 1:56:02Word of Faith. How come you have had
- 1:56:05accelerated results, particularly in terms of
- 1:56:08membership and the stretch of your influence?
- 1:56:11And if I get the story right, that God servant Bishop Poedepo
- 1:56:14said I danced every one of these people you see dancing, this is.
- 1:56:20Not whether You Can Dance or. Not This is not whether you can
- 1:56:24clap or not. This is not whether you can
- 1:56:26shout or not. This is that you know that when
- 1:56:30the people praising the earth yields its increase.
- 1:56:36This I know about God. I'm not wasting your time
- 1:56:38tonight. Rosanna Creation will see your.

- 1:58:10And they placed it and they said, Hosanna, blessed is see
- 1:58:14who comes in the name of the Lord is a triumphant entry.
- 1:58:18Some of you are removing your dignity and you are placing it
- 1:58:21on the ground and you are saying, Lord, we're going to
- 1:58:24sing that song one time. Listen, my people give us
- 1:58:27quality. Don't don't.

- 1:59:06His power, I like you to see doors opening, see chains
- 1:59:12breaking, see God stepping into boardrooms and manipulating
- 1:59:17things to work out the counsel of His will.
- 1:59:24Do you believe that and when we begin to.

- 2:05:07May my God judge them. Please be seated.
- 2:05:14Let's hurry up. It led.
- 2:05:25To. My brain.
- 2:05:29It led to my brain. It led.
- 2:05:34To my brain. It led to my brain.
- 2:05:42It led to my brain, my soul. Ye not.
- 2:06:32#4. The fourth key.
- 2:06:37Another measure. The cry, the.
- 2:06:40Press the desperate press for greater glory.
- 2:06:45Are you ready for the key #4 the fourth key that is responsible?
- 2:06:52Kai Testimonies will arise home. I know, I know a bit.
- 2:06:57About the power of God. I know a bit about the power of
- 2:07:01God. I know when it flows to men.
- 2:07:03I know when it answers to faith. Are you ready?
- 2:07:09Greater Kingdom. Service.
- 2:07:12Greater. Kingdom Service The fourth way
- 2:07:17to command greater level in your life is to increase your Kingdom
- 2:07:23service. Greater Kingdom service The more
- 2:07:28you are doggedly invested in the service of the king, the more
- 2:07:34the glory of God will be invested in your life.
- 2:07:39This is true. There is no need desiring
- 2:07:42greater wisdom, greater anointing, greater prosperity,
- 2:07:45greater power if you are unwilling to serve the purposes
- 2:07:50of the Kingdom, greater Kingdom service.
- 2:07:53The hotter your appetite to see Jesus revealed and glorified,
- 2:07:59the more dogged you are invested in the program of God, the more
- 2:08:04you will see His glory captured in your life.
- 2:08:08Now I tell you this, there are many.
- 2:08:10People. Who desire power, They desire
- 2:08:13wisdom, they desire grace, they design notoriety, they desire
- 2:08:18prosperity, influence. But at the back of those desires
- 2:08:22there is nothing Kingdom come. In their pursuit, everything in
- 2:08:27the Kingdom revolves. Around the will of God.
- 2:08:30And the desire to see Jesus lifted, Jesus glorified, Jesus
- 2:08:35revealed. This is true.
- 2:08:37Show me a man whose life is all about the revelation and the
- 2:08:41glorification of Jesus. I show you one who are signed in
- 2:08:45forever increasing glory. Why do you need more money when
- 2:08:49the Father's business is not at the heart of what you want to
- 2:08:52do? Why do you need more wisdom,
- 2:08:55whereas there is nothing Kingdom come in your desire?
- 2:08:58Why do you need greater influence?
- 2:09:00You want to be a captain over God's inheritance.
- 2:09:03You want your voice to echo, to reverberate across a generation.
- 2:09:08You see, when your pursuit is mundane, mundane meaning that it
- 2:09:12does not carry within it anything that is of eternal
- 2:09:15value, you will hardly secure the glory of God on it.
- 2:09:20Hallelujah, praise the name of the Lord, the one whose heart
- 2:09:24and life is poured out like a drink offering on the altar of
- 2:09:28sacrifice, that your business is to see Jesus revealed through
- 2:09:32your life, whether in ministry, whether in business, whether in
- 2:09:37whatever it is you're doing. I can tell you, you will keep
- 2:09:40seeing the glory of God multiplied in your life.
- 2:09:45You cannot give God. 1/2 hearted commitment.
- 2:09:48And want the fullness of His power, His wisdom, and His grace
- 2:09:52to be invested in your life. It doesn't work that way, Sir.
- 2:09:55It doesn't work that way, Sir. This has nothing to do with
- 2:09:58being in ministry or being a preacher.
- 2:10:01It has everything to do with loving Jesus with your all and
- 2:10:05desiring to see the nation. See Hallelujah, Apostle, I'm
- 2:10:12trusting. God to grant me.
- 2:10:16Access to sing His praises to the nations.
- 2:10:18Why? So that the nations will be able
- 2:10:21to hear that sound of revival, that sound of worship through my
- 2:10:24life. Now you have signed in for
- 2:10:27greater glory, Apostle. I'm trusting God to step into
- 2:10:31the billion realm. I'm trusting God to be so
- 2:10:34wealthy. Why?
- 2:10:35So you just build houses and mansions?
- 2:10:37Is that all? No, I desire to sponsor
- 2:10:40programs. I want a situation where I will,
- 2:10:43I will write off the bill of a conference, a convention, and
- 2:10:47I'm not even make noise about it.
- 2:10:48And God is saying you are speaking my language.
- 2:10:50Can I tell you this? The easiest way I know to commit
- 2:10:54God's integrity in the life of a man are we together is to
- 2:10:58connect Kingdom come to your desire.
- 2:11:02I want increase for. Your glory for your.
- 2:11:05Kingdom for the establishment of your purposes.
- 2:11:08And God says that's it, it's done.
- 2:11:10It's done. All things revolve around his
- 2:11:13wheel. There's a dear politician.
- 2:11:17Great man, it's quite dear. To me.
- 2:11:19And I told him, he asked me one day say, Apostle, if you have
- 2:11:22one secret to teach me in politics, what would it be?
- 2:11:25And I told him this. I said, whether in the secret or
- 2:11:27in the open, never get your life to a point where you become
- 2:11:31irrelevant to the Kingdom. I show you the key to your
- 2:11:34growth. I'm not talking about being a
- 2:11:36fanatic. I'm talking about being invested
- 2:11:39in the program of God. And my goodness for him, it's
- 2:11:42always been win, win, win, win all through.
- 2:11:44Mysteriously, by the hand of God, nobody goes out of
- 2:11:50relevance. Fully invested in the business
- 2:11:53of Kingdom come. No, no, when God moves left and
- 2:11:58you will move left too, the light will always be on you.
- 2:12:01When God moves right and you move right too.
- 2:12:04That it is not my agenda says it's not my will, but yours be
- 2:12:07done. When you are invested in God's
- 2:12:09program, you know what, you will not go out of relevance.
- 2:12:12There are benefits for yourself. So don't think that God is about
- 2:12:15leaving you to live a miserable life only to serve His purposes.
- 2:12:18He's not a cruel and a wicked king.
- 2:12:20He gave Jesus. He desires your growth.
- 2:12:24You're. Excelling more than you can.
- 2:12:26Even desire for yourself, but the protocol is that once your
- 2:12:30heart and your life is invested towards Kingdom service.
- 2:12:34I tell you the truth and I'm not saying it because I'm preaching
- 2:12:38everything God brings to my life before its arrival.
- 2:12:42It already knows that there's only one rule in my life.
- 2:12:45If it will not serve the purposes of the Kingdom, it is
- 2:12:48not welcome. Simple.
- 2:12:51The kind of money that will not serve God.
- 2:12:53With me may be. Far from me.
- 2:12:55Are we together now? My health will serve God.
- 2:12:58My finances will serve God. Let everything that has breath,
- 2:13:03once it has breath, The assignment connected to the
- 2:13:06breath is to praise the Lord. Meaning if you are not praising
- 2:13:09the Lord, the breath is not needed.
- 2:13:11Let everything that has breath if you wake up in the morning
- 2:13:16and you. Find yourself breathing and
- 2:13:17you're still. In the world of men, then know
- 2:13:19that that assignment there is a mandate on your life to bring
- 2:13:22Him glory to your life. I'm praying for you, whether
- 2:13:26formally or informally. May your life be all about
- 2:13:29serving the purposes of the Kingdom.
- 2:13:33Don't just tell God, give me a job.
- 2:13:35I need to feed my. Children, give me this, give me
- 2:13:38that. We pray all kinds of carnal
- 2:13:39prayers in church that are largely products of flesh,
- 2:13:42products of a carnally minded believer.
- 2:13:46When you mature in the spirit and you become a spiritual
- 2:13:48person, the the mode of your prayer changes.
- 2:13:52Every desire is connected to Kingdom come, Kingdom service.
- 2:13:57Again I pray for you, your passion to serve the Lord, to
- 2:14:00serve the Lord, whether as a worker in church, a witness, as
- 2:14:04an ambassador in your field of endeavour.
- 2:14:06I release that grace upon you in Jesus name.
- 2:14:09Shout a receiving Amen very quickly.
- 2:14:12Let me give you #5. What is the 5th?
- 2:14:15Key that controls greater investment of God's glory in an
- 2:14:20unending, ever increasing dimension.
- 2:14:23Are you ready on ending gratitude On ending gratitude,
- 2:14:28On ending gratitude Jeremiah 30 and verse 19 on ending
- 2:14:32gratitude. If your gratitude will not end,
- 2:14:36then your lifting will not end. If your gratitude will not end,
- 2:14:40then your advancement will have no limit.
- 2:14:43It says, And out of them shall proceed Thanksgiving, and the
- 2:14:46voice of them that make merry. And as a result I will multiply
- 2:14:51them, and they shall not be few. I will glorify them, and they
- 2:14:56shall not be small. Being few and being small is a
- 2:15:00product of the lack of discernment to appreciate God.
- 2:15:06We take our time to lavishly appreciate God, sometimes to a
- 2:15:09point of annoyance. In this house.
- 2:15:12It is because we realize that the way to secure the more of
- 2:15:15God is to thank Him generously for what He's done.
- 2:15:20If God gives you a cup of tea and you thank Him as if he gave
- 2:15:24you a coffee shop, get ready for bread.
- 2:15:27Get ready for whatever else until you become an owner of
- 2:15:32things you never thought you would own in your wildest
- 2:15:35imagination. Or a Stewart, I would say.
- 2:15:38Thanksgiving always brings increase.
- 2:15:40Gratitude always brings increase.
- 2:15:42It never depletes. Gratitude.
- 2:15:50Most people are not grateful. We are thoughtful, but we're not
- 2:15:55grateful. Verbalizing the kindness of God,
- 2:15:57verbalizing the goodness of God, verbalizing his faithfulness
- 2:16:01over our lives is something that is so heavy for many people.
- 2:16:05Oh yeah, God just did it. Lord, I'm, I'm grateful we
- 2:16:08passively say it. I've taught you the law of
- 2:16:10gratitude in this House. That gratitude must match the
- 2:16:14sacrifice that brought it. Still remember the way you thank
- 2:16:19me for giving you 1000 naira should not be the same way you
- 2:16:23thank me for giving you 100,000. It should not be the same way
- 2:16:26you thank me for giving you a million.
- 2:16:28It should not be the same way. You thank me for giving you 10
- 2:16:30million. If I give you 1 million or one
- 2:16:341000, 100,001 million, 10 million, a 100 million, and you
- 2:16:38just say thank you in a general casual way, you don't have
- 2:16:42discernment. It's not the same effort and
- 2:16:44sacrifice that brought it that way.
- 2:16:45We together. So the deeper the act of divine
- 2:16:49benevolence, the deeper the sacrifice, the communication of
- 2:16:52mercy, the greater and more lavish your gratitude should be.
- 2:16:58I don't know about you, but I live in the reality of God's
- 2:17:00kindness and faithfulness in my life.
- 2:17:02I live perpetually in that reality.
- 2:17:05Sometimes I just find myself sitting alone and all I'm saying
- 2:17:08is thank you Jesus, thank you Jesus, I am grateful.
- 2:17:11You have been kind to me preparing for the convention
- 2:17:15coming. All that I found myself saying
- 2:17:17after interceding and all of that is thank you.
- 2:17:20I am overwhelmed already by what God is doing.
- 2:17:23Did you know there are people who have already travelled in
- 2:17:25for a convention that is starting in 10 days and there
- 2:17:28are people who have flown in already praying, asking can we
- 2:17:31work, what can we do? I mean literally from across the
- 2:17:34nations of the earth. It is the mercy of God, the
- 2:17:39privilege of hosting the Fathers.
- 2:17:40The privilege of the influence. The capacity, the resources to
- 2:17:44do the things we're doing to not have headache.
- 2:17:47I've been in ministry for a little bit.
- 2:17:49I know what men of God go to when they're organizing
- 2:17:52conventions. You see them talking to
- 2:17:53themselves as if you're having all kinds of things dementia.
- 2:17:57They're talking to themselves. Where is this one going to come
- 2:17:59from? Now, this one, I'm calling this
- 2:18:01guy. He's not picking because of all
- 2:18:03the financial stress. But today we're able to lift up
- 2:18:06hands in worship while doing the things that we're doing.
- 2:18:08I don't take it for granted. Then on top of that, he brings
- 2:18:17us a song he gives us. Beautiful walkers, ladies and
- 2:18:21gentlemen. God has been good.
- 2:18:24God has been very good to us. Someone shall thank you Jesus.
- 2:18:29The fact that you have a home to go back to.
- 2:18:31After service. Thank you Jesus that you have
- 2:18:34some resources in your bank account to attend to your needs
- 2:18:37without worry. Thank you Jesus, you have a
- 2:18:40healthy body, feet that moves, hands that can reach, an eye
- 2:18:44that can see. Did you know that there are
- 2:18:47people following this service right now without exaggeration
- 2:18:50across hospitals? Some of them, their legs are
- 2:18:54been hung on all kinds of metallic things.
- 2:18:57Some of them their eyes surgeries, they can't see, some
- 2:19:00of them can just hear. They can't move your body and
- 2:19:03yet they motion with joy. Let everything that has breath.
- 2:19:11The dead cannot praise him, only the living can praise.
- 2:19:14Him, ladies and gentlemen, a grateful person is a for
- 2:19:19whatever person. If you know how to be grateful,
- 2:19:23find the littlest, the tiniest of things and give God love this
- 2:19:28gratitude over it. You go back home and there's a
- 2:19:31sumptuous meal before you. Don't just say plus Jesus minus
- 2:19:34Satan. Immature prayer, careless prayer
- 2:19:37coming from someone who does not take God seriously.
- 2:19:40What's the hurry for? Father, thank you.
- 2:19:43Thank you. I don't take it for granted.
- 2:19:46What you trivialize is someone else's testimony.
- 2:19:49Thank you, Thank you. One time I had the honor of
- 2:19:54doing a little. Project for some.
- 2:19:55People and when they met me and spoke to me about it, they said
- 2:19:59both men and animals drink water from the same place.
- 2:20:03That means a human being is taking water.
- 2:20:06The camp, the. Camel or or the goat or the ram
- 2:20:09is also drinking water from the same source and yet they are
- 2:20:12grateful that there's even water.
- 2:20:18I don't know about you, but I'm grateful to God.
- 2:20:21Grateful to God. Grateful to God.
- 2:20:23Grateful to God for good friends.
- 2:20:26Grateful to God for kind people. Grateful to God for faithful
- 2:20:30workers in this ministry. Grateful to God for a network of
- 2:20:34lovely believers. Grateful to God for health.
- 2:20:38Grateful to God for the anointing for relationships.
- 2:20:48Number six, who is ready for the next level of glory,
- 2:20:57Thanksgiving, gratitude, the 6th and.
- 2:21:01Final one is praise. There is a difference between
- 2:21:04being grateful and being praiseful.
- 2:21:07They work together, but they are not the same.
- 2:21:09Gratitude is from the heart. Praise is a channel for not only
- 2:21:13expressing gratitude, but extolling the name of the Lord,
- 2:21:17invoking and declaring your honor.
- 2:21:21Psalm 67 Five to six praise. Let the people praise thee, O
- 2:21:28God, let all, not some, all the people praise thee.
- 2:21:31Verse 6. And then the earth.
- 2:21:35The earth yet does not just talk of soil, the earth also talks of
- 2:21:39human vessels. The earth shall yield her
- 2:21:42increase, and God, even our own God, shall bless us.
- 2:21:47The Bible says verse seven, I think he says the Lord shall
- 2:21:50bless us and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
- 2:21:54I don't know what kind of blessing that is that God
- 2:21:57blesses a man and the earth will not just rejoice, they will fear
- 2:22:00him. Praise, praise, praise, praise.
- 2:22:09It's not enough to tell him thank you.
- 2:22:11Is not enough to be. Grateful.
- 2:22:13You can be deeply grateful and yet not praise Him.
- 2:22:18I want you to know that truly God inhabits the praises of his
- 2:22:23people. The word inhabit means that he's
- 2:22:26pulled into, He's drawn into like a magnet.
- 2:22:30He makes the praise of His people a habitation.
- 2:22:34Now just for the purpose of illustration, when you go to
- 2:22:37India, there are times that people have all these things
- 2:22:40they do with snakes. They begin to play flutes and
- 2:22:43then it comes out of a basket or whatever.
- 2:22:45It seems to be lured by whatever worship it is that's that's
- 2:22:48likened to what praise does. That when you begin to extol
- 2:22:52him, to lift up his name, to bless him, are we together to
- 2:22:55rejoice, to make merriment, to mention his name, to sing of his
- 2:23:00wondrous walks? What happens is that you begin
- 2:23:04to attract the attention of God, your direction, and He reaches.
- 2:23:10Down to you. Here's what the Bible.
- 2:23:12Says Acts 1625. Paul and Silas bound hand and
- 2:23:17feet. Now let me tell you this, I wish
- 2:23:20I had the opportunity to give you a a pictorial illustration
- 2:23:26of these guys at this point. In ancient times it was not the
- 2:23:30way they hanged off people today.
- 2:23:32No, they would have woods like wooden bars that was carved out
- 2:23:38the shape of a man's hand, you know, just to allow the hand.
- 2:23:40So you rested your hands on it and then they would close it and
- 2:23:44clip it. So it's not like you are trying
- 2:23:47to remove the hands that way because there were times they
- 2:23:50also chopped off people's hands. So it made it easy.
- 2:23:52They just clip your hands and then they could chop it off.
- 2:23:56You know, they kept the hands and the same thing they do to
- 2:23:58your feet. So you are seated on the ground,
- 2:24:01your feet bound chained, your hands bound chain.
- 2:24:04That was the situation in verse 25.
- 2:24:08But at midnight Paul and Silas prayed.
- 2:24:11Then the Bible says they sang praises.
- 2:24:14They didn't wish praises. They didn't think praises.
- 2:24:17They sang praises on to God. I wonder what they said.
- 2:24:21I wish the Bible let us hear what they sang.
- 2:24:24What kind of praise do you sing to God?
- 2:24:26When you are bound in chain and it was the gospel that took you
- 2:24:29there, You casted out demons. Someone will be tempted to say
- 2:24:33where is the God that delivered the girl that could not deliver
- 2:24:36this person. If you read the full context,
- 2:24:39the reason why God took them there, they have been in prison
- 2:24:42was not because God was not powerful.
- 2:24:44God was interested in the jailer's family.
- 2:24:47That was why he took them there is the reason why even when they
- 2:24:50were free, Paul knowing that it was not about being bound, he
- 2:24:54refused to go. He told the jail life we go, we
- 2:24:57have missed out on why we came, come, we are going to your
- 2:25:00house. The real thing is not our beam
- 2:25:03bound here is that God wanted to visit your family.
- 2:25:06The jailer most likely was a good man.
- 2:25:08He was just walking, doing a job he did not like.
- 2:25:11Do you know why? I know he was a good man.
- 2:25:13He took the knife already. He knew they were going to kill
- 2:25:16him and he was going to slay himself.
- 2:25:18And Paul said no, no, we are all here.
- 2:25:22In other words, Paul told everybody, don't run away, there
- 2:25:25is a greater cause. There is a greater cause for our
- 2:25:28light afflictions, which is but for a moment worked in us a far
- 2:25:33more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
- 2:25:36He knew. Let me tell you this, when the
- 2:25:38all powerful God seems to be silent when you are going
- 2:25:42through certain seasons, stop crying.
- 2:25:44Look at the miracle He's sending you to birth.
- 2:25:47Paul was matured enough to understand how can a God cast
- 2:25:51out a demon out of a lady through his servant and by the
- 2:25:54next moment they are driving him into prison and God seems to be
- 2:25:58silent. The Bible says at midnight.
- 2:26:00That's the point. Paul and Silas knowing the power
- 2:26:03that is in praises, the Bible says they prayed, then they sang
- 2:26:07praises on to God and it was loud enough for the prisoners to
- 2:26:11hear them. I've said it in this house, the
- 2:26:14prisoners benefited even though they didn't sing.
- 2:26:17The fact that they did not obstruct the people singing the
- 2:26:20praise. Are you seeing that the value of
- 2:26:22praise goes beyond you? You do the singing.
- 2:26:25Your family receives A breakthrough too.
- 2:26:29Hallelujah and all the prison doors.
- 2:26:33Opened immediately the chains. Fell off and the jailer received
- 2:26:37salvation that day. Praise is powerful.
- 2:26:41Let me encourage you. At least God has given you one
- 2:26:43song. Let me speak to the body of
- 2:26:45Christ. Take this song.
- 2:26:47I'm sure that the media will be able to crop out portions of
- 2:26:50this, put it together and then, you know, just put it as a
- 2:26:53separate video just to help the people go and sing it as a song
- 2:26:59for the season. Chant it, add whatever you can
- 2:27:02add in it in your secret place, Sing it, drop.
- 2:27:07Your request on the ground. Dance it before the Lord,
- 2:27:11husband and wife sing, Rejoice businessman, place the court
- 2:27:16case on the ground and rejoice before the God of heaven.
- 2:27:19Thank God it's nobody's business.
- 2:27:21It's called the secret place. It's you and God.
- 2:27:24Rejoice with the medical. Reports notwithstanding.
- 2:27:28They say you will not survive December, right?
- 2:27:31Thank God for the educated opinion.
- 2:27:33But there is the God that can turn the narratives, the one who
- 2:27:36came back to revisit Hezekiah. And you just read Psalm 1:51 to
- 2:27:426:00 and then raise the song, dance it, celebrate it.
- 2:27:46I'm sure there'll be various versions of it that my people
- 2:27:50will bring again. And they will sing it on to the
- 2:27:53Lord. Use it as a weapon, not a
- 2:27:55special number. Are we together?
- 2:27:58God is beyond your audience, His Savior Praise.
- 2:28:04As for me, I found something. To war with for this remaining
- 2:28:07time into the convention, into the convention.
- 2:28:11I believe that God is going to do something very prophetic,
- 2:28:15very generational. I've announced it already and
- 2:28:18I've said that I don't want to tell you the confirmations that
- 2:28:20I've come prophetically over the things that God is going to be
- 2:28:23doing. So for me, it's a reason to
- 2:28:26rejoice. It's a reason to celebrate all
- 2:28:30of these things. And as I rejoice, fresh oil,
- 2:28:33greater grace pouring, you would see new fountains, virgin
- 2:28:37dimensions that while you are praising God will wake somebody
- 2:28:42and say, do you know the man called Joshua Salman?
- 2:28:45He said, well, God, I don't know him saying anyway, it doesn't
- 2:28:47matter, He is my son. I want you to hold his hand in
- 2:28:50this season and lift him to the next level.
- 2:28:53God for you, God for you, God for you.
- 2:28:59You've not been able to get a visa to go and meet your.
- 2:29:01Wife instead of. Running around and chasing men
- 2:29:03and doing all of that. Say Lord, there is a way.
- 2:29:06I've cried to men. They didn't attend to me.
- 2:29:08Let me cry to the God who created the man He's called the
- 2:29:11Father of spirits. Every spirit is under the
- 2:29:13influence of his power. He can say to 1 go and he will
- 2:29:18go. Say to another, Come and he will
- 2:29:20come. And while men are snoring away
- 2:29:22their destinies, you are singing, rejoicing, and dancing
- 2:29:25before the God your Maker, and calling all those names.
- 2:29:28Some of you will list those four names and sing it for one hour
- 2:29:31nonstop. You are just shouting and
- 2:29:34singing in the Spirit until the Spirit of prophecy rests on you.
- 2:29:40And before you know it by yourself, you will start
- 2:29:42prophesying over your own life, over your own life.
- 2:29:46Bring me a Mistral, he said. And as they played the Mistral,
- 2:29:49the hand of God came upon him. And he said, You shall not see
- 2:29:52wind, you shall not see rain, yet your valley shall be filled
- 2:29:57with water, filled with water. Filled with water.
- 2:30:03God is going to arise as a God of science and wonders over
- 2:30:07families. I sense in my spirit, you know
- 2:30:10that statement, let God arise. It's like there is an injunction
- 2:30:13in the spirit. Enough is enough.
- 2:30:15I'm telling you, I'm sensing this in my spirit.
- 2:30:18It's like God is saying clear the way.
- 2:30:20I want to make a statement. The mockery on the church, the
- 2:30:23mockery on believers, the mockery on faithfulness.
- 2:30:28We're about to pray. We live in a world today where.
- 2:30:32Faithfulness unto God is becoming threatened.
- 2:30:36People are vocal enough to mock the things of God.
- 2:30:39When you say you love the Lord music and forget all that thing,
- 2:30:42please focus on this. And believers are beginning to
- 2:30:45be discouraged. Go and read church history.
- 2:30:47Every time men begin to mock God, he keeps quiet for a while.
- 2:30:52He allows the arrogance of men to reach the heavens.
- 2:30:55Then he will come up in an extraordinary way and humble
- 2:30:59them back. Then reverence begins.
- 2:31:02Then eventually pride builds up. This in the Bible.
- 2:31:05Have you not read about Nebuchadnezzar?
- 2:31:07Have you not read about Darius? Have you not read about, you
- 2:31:11know, all the kings? When God is silent as men vent
- 2:31:15out arrogance? He's up to something.
- 2:31:19He's up to something. I don't want to be at the other.
- 2:31:22Side of his power. I want his power to be for me,
- 2:31:28for me, for me. Who said because you are serving
- 2:31:32God, you don't have capacity to feed your children?
- 2:31:35Let them mock you while you are saying.
- 2:31:37And sometimes people make all these sarcastic statements.
- 2:31:40Is it prayer? Who eat?
- 2:31:42Is it fasting? Who eat?
- 2:31:43Is he loving God? We've done it and they, they may
- 2:31:46be sincere. I'm not saying they are bad, but
- 2:31:48I sense in this season God wants to speak to Nigeria, God wants
- 2:31:53to speak to Africa. I'm telling you this, God wants
- 2:31:56to say something loud to the nations.
- 2:32:01Never call on clean. What I have called clean.
- 2:32:04God wants to make a strong statement.
- 2:32:07I'm saying it prophetically across the continent of Africa.
- 2:32:10I've traveled a bit and I've seen the signs.
- 2:32:13I've seen the cloud formations. God wants to make a statement
- 2:32:17for creation. When this song came to me, I
- 2:32:20knew it. I said this is a sign.
- 2:32:22This is a sign God is doing something.
- 2:32:25The arrogance of man has reached the heavens.
- 2:32:28I mean, people beat their chest and make it look like there is
- 2:32:31no profit in serving God, no profit in being prayerful, no
- 2:32:35profit in loving Jesus. And younger believers are
- 2:32:38getting discouraged. So in this season, God wants to
- 2:32:41sign, do something spectacular there.
- 2:32:45There needs to be a generation that sees the wonders of God in
- 2:32:49their generation. You know, most of the wonders we
- 2:32:52talk about did not happen in our generation.
- 2:32:54We saw the signs our fathers told us.
- 2:32:57Now we are preparing to receive our own signs, the one we will
- 2:33:01use to tell our children. Thank God for the signs God did
- 2:33:05during the generations of our Father.
- 2:33:08They saw it. That's why they still believe
- 2:33:10him in old age. Now we are, we are drinking from
- 2:33:13their revelation. But God wants to do something in
- 2:33:17this generation, in this generation.
- 2:33:22That indeed we. Can say we have trapped a
- 2:33:24testament of his faithfulness. The build up of prayer, the
- 2:33:28build up of hunger of decades, yesteryears.
- 2:33:32God will move again. In my short lifetime, I've seen
- 2:33:36a few moves of God. I've had the honor to
- 2:33:39participate in engineering some of them.
- 2:33:42I know what the move of God looks like.
- 2:33:44I know what the move of God looks like.
- 2:33:46The last time I saw that kind of thing was when we're in Zarya.
- 2:33:50I see the cloud is coming again. It's coming again.
- 2:33:54It's coming again, that wave of the Spirit.
- 2:33:57But that many prophetic voices you see in the body of Christ
- 2:34:00today. Many.
- 2:34:02It was a wave, it was a tsunami. A carried man, mighty man,
- 2:34:07ordinary man. I'm telling you, I see that
- 2:34:10formation again, See that formation again, See that
- 2:34:16formation again. Please rise up on your feet.
- 2:34:18This time around, it will not be at the pulpit.
- 2:34:22No, believe me, businessman, kings, Queens, presidents,
- 2:34:29royalties, professionals, everyone is a river.
- 2:34:33It will flow from His presence and it will reach everywhere.
- 2:34:39God is about to make a statement.
- 2:34:41Nigeria, hear me. I mark this as a prophetic word.
- 2:34:44I don't speak carelessly. I respect God and I respect
- 2:34:47myself. But mark this, there will be a
- 2:34:50strange manifestation, very strange move of the Spirit.
- 2:34:57God wants to end the. Mockery is too much.
- 2:35:00There's been too much mockery on the body for reasons whether
- 2:35:05justifiable or otherwise. Many today do not see the
- 2:35:08prophet in serving Jesus. But here comes a generation, the
- 2:35:13revealers, the revealers of God's power, The revealers of
- 2:35:18the value of knowing Him, the value of serving him, the value
- 2:35:23of living for him, the value of pressing for him, the revelation
- 2:35:29of our fathers. Has taken us so far their.
- 2:35:32Encounters have taken us so far, but right now we are crying for
- 2:35:35another measure that 1000 cubits be measured to this generation.
- 2:35:39Let us see his power. Let us see his glory.
- 2:35:43In a way we can say we saw it too.
- 2:35:46Not that our fathers told us. We saw the signs, the wonders.
- 2:35:50We saw the God of increase. We saw the God who's pressed his
- 2:35:53hand and can help a man. Someone open your mouth and pray
- 2:35:57in one minute, Maranatha. Come, Lord Jesus, come in your
- 2:36:03power. Come.
- 2:36:05In your glory, come, arise like the mighty God you are.
- 2:36:10A generation is calling for you, calling for you, calling for
- 2:36:15you. Reveal yourself.
- 2:36:17We're tired of talks and stories.
- 2:36:20We want to see the God of power, the God of miracles, the God who
- 2:36:25lifts, the God who manipulates times and seasons to line up
- 2:36:30with his prophetic program. Lift your voice and pray, Rakata
- 2:36:36bekata Bekata. Another.
- 2:36:39Measure. Let our generation trap.
- 2:36:44Define realities. Let us be testifiers of God,

- 2:55:17help in the name of Jesus Christ.

- 2:56:01announcement. I almost omitted this.
- 2:56:04We are going to be doing a rally for the convention.
- 2:56:07Are you happy about that? That almost escaped my mind.
- 2:56:12So let me just read it out. Please give me a minute and then
- 2:56:16we'll just put that. It's going to be on Wednesday
- 2:56:19the 11th, Wednesday the 11th and Thursday the 12th.
- 2:56:23So two days we're going to be doing the rally.
- 2:56:26The point of convergence will be by three, 3:00 PM at our other
- 2:56:31venue. Please, as many people who can
- 2:56:33join, we're not doing it everywhere.
- 2:56:35We're going to specific locations.
- 2:56:37There are specific locations, the Kubwa Axis, Marabanya and
- 2:56:42one other place. And we're just going to
- 2:56:45celebrate God and hand over handbills.
- 2:56:48And for those of you who are here, if you've not gotten a
- 2:56:51hold of the handbills, I don't know if the Oshas did give it.
- 2:56:53The handbills are not for you. I'm not to be inviting you.
- 2:56:57You are the one who should be inviting others.
- 2:56:58So don't use the handbills to write phone numbers and emails.
- 2:57:02That's not the assignment. Hand it over to someone in the
- 2:57:05boss. Tell someone it's the General
- 2:57:06Assembly. God is moving mightily.
- 2:57:09Praise the name of the Lord, whatever sacrifice you can make.
- 2:57:12But please for the rally, we want as many people who converge
- 2:57:15there, there'll be bosses that will convey the people to the
- 2:57:18various points and then would do the best that we can do.
- 2:57:22You can be sure that we're doing everything decently.
- 2:57:24There are security agencies and we've obtained permission from
- 2:57:28the the relevant authorities to make sure that we just do our
- 2:57:33thing. Just let the people know 1 to
- 2:57:34reach some of those unreached places to let them know this is
- 2:57:38what God is doing. So please join us on Wednesday,
- 2:57:40Wednesday, 3:00 PM. We're DOA for convergence.
- 2:57:43Come three on the dot. And then from there we'll
- 2:57:46distribute ourselves to various places and number of the points
- 2:57:50and you'll be be glory to the name of the Lord, Praise Jesus,
- 2:57:54Hallelujah. Are you happy about this?
- 2:57:58Praise God and how many of you? Are happy about the general.
- 2:58:01Assembly. Honestly, without exaggeration,
- 2:58:08it is something to shout about. It's.
- 2:58:09Something to really give God praise about.
- 2:58:13Hallelujah will never tie us to invite as many, many people join
- 2:58:18us. I hope the stadium is able to
- 2:58:20contain us. But all the same, we're happy.
- 2:58:22We rejoice over what God is doing and hopefully by Sunday
- 2:58:27I'll bring the final announcement and then a few
- 2:58:30specifics. And God is going to be helping
- 2:58:32us. It's going to be a generational
- 2:58:34convergence and we're happy. To those who have already flown
