- 0:38Speaker 3: It truly is a very great honor for me to
- 0:41Speaker 3: be here this morning.
- 0:43Speaker 2: I do not take likely the opportunity to bring the
- 0:46Speaker 2: Word of ordering even this morning. And let me start
- 0:52Speaker 2: this morning by honoring our mother, mommy, God, bless you,
- 0:55Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you, truly truly appreciate, and by extension
- 1:01Speaker 2: to our Daddy. We pray that the Lord will keep
- 1:04Speaker 2: an honor that mean Jesus name. Let's pray Father again,
- 1:09Speaker 2: we ask that you will speak to our hearts. The
- 1:12Speaker 2: Bible declares that the entrance of your word gives light
- 1:17Speaker 2: and even understanding to the symbol. We pray that you
- 1:21Speaker 2: grant us grace, You grant us wisdom within the time
- 1:25Speaker 2: that we have to share. And I pray that our
- 1:27Speaker 2: lives and our ministries would never be the same. In
- 1:32Speaker 2: the name of Jesus Christ. Amen, God, bless you, and
- 1:35Speaker 2: please be seated.
- 1:36Speaker 3: Good morning. Once again.
- 1:43Speaker 2: Our discuss very briefly this morning is along the lines
- 1:47Speaker 2: of the theme making full proof of your ministry.
- 1:50Speaker 4: And.
- 1:53Speaker 2: I've been asked to share along the lines of Philippians
- 1:57Speaker 2: four thirteen.
- 1:58Speaker 3: The Bible says, and do all things through Christ that
- 2:03Speaker 3: gives me strength.
- 2:05Speaker 2: I just want to very quickly lay foundation with Second Peter,
- 2:11Speaker 2: Second Peter chapter one. If you, if you have your
- 2:16Speaker 2: Bible here, please turn Second Peter Chapter one, particularly verse ten.
- 2:23Speaker 3: Apostle Peter was giving an instruction that I believe is
- 2:29Speaker 3: very instructive as we.
- 2:35Speaker 2: Explore the principles that make for efficiency even in ministry.
- 2:41Speaker 2: Second Peter Chapter one. And for the sake of time,
- 2:46Speaker 2: I would just read one verse, verse ten, but you
- 2:49Speaker 2: may read from verse two to ten.
- 2:51Speaker 3: But I read verse ten. It says, wherefore, the rather.
- 2:55Speaker 2: Brethren, give diligence to make your calling and your election show.
- 3:05Speaker 3: For if ye do these things, he says, ye shall
- 3:08Speaker 3: never fall.
- 3:11Speaker 2: Give diligence to make your calling and your election show.
- 3:19Speaker 2: The Bible here leaves the believer with irresponsibility. The word
- 3:23Speaker 2: diligence means to pay attention, to invest time, to invest energy.
- 3:29Speaker 2: The Bible lets us know that it is our responsibility
- 3:32Speaker 2: to make proof of our ministry inasmuch as God has
- 3:37Speaker 2: called every one of us at various levels for different
- 3:42Speaker 2: kinds of ministries. The Bible says speaking through Apostle Peter,
- 3:46Speaker 2: that it is my responsibility and your responsibility.
- 3:50Speaker 3: To make full proof.
- 3:51Speaker 2: That means that you should coordinate together all of the
- 3:56Speaker 2: forces that will stop men from disbelieving that you were true.
- 4:00Speaker 2: Called it is your responsibility to put together the factors.
- 4:06Speaker 3: Under God that will make ministry work for you.
- 4:12Speaker 2: This call and this assignment that the Lord has given
- 4:17Speaker 2: us is not one that can be done in the
- 4:19Speaker 2: strength of the flesh. All through scripture, the Bible is
- 4:23Speaker 2: vocal about the inability of man, by himself and in
- 4:28Speaker 2: his strength, to accomplish God's divine task. We have from Matthew,
- 4:32Speaker 2: chapter nineteen and twenty six. You may write it down
- 4:36Speaker 2: Matthew nineteen and verse twenty six. Jesus was speaking, and
- 4:40Speaker 2: he said with men, this is impossible. That means there
- 4:45Speaker 2: are some things that are not They are not available
- 4:50Speaker 2: and possible within the realm of men. It is not
- 4:53Speaker 2: within the power of a man to change another man
- 4:56Speaker 2: in his strength. It is not within the power of
- 4:59Speaker 2: a man to bend through the situations and circumstances the
- 5:04Speaker 2: vicissitudes of life, and to thrive and excel and do
- 5:08Speaker 2: something that brings glory to the name of the Lord
- 5:11Speaker 2: in the strength of the flesh. So very clearly, the
- 5:14Speaker 2: Bible lets us know that there are some things that
- 5:16Speaker 2: are not possible for men. That means if you see
- 5:20Speaker 2: a man producing that level of result, he was assisted
- 5:23Speaker 2: by the realm of the spirit. It is not within
- 5:26Speaker 2: the power of men to do some things. I think
- 5:29Speaker 2: it's very instructive if we understand early, because most times,
- 5:33Speaker 2: as well meaning as we are, we attempt to do
- 5:37Speaker 2: supernatural things in the strength of the flesh, and then
- 5:40Speaker 2: we find out the futility of the flesh.
- 5:42Speaker 3: Again and again and again.
- 5:45Speaker 2: It brings us back to a place of nothingness. The
- 5:48Speaker 2: Bible says, with men, this is impossible Matthew nineteen twenty six.
- 5:54Speaker 3: It says, but with God all things.
- 5:56Speaker 2: Someone, please prophesy to yourself say all things are possible.
- 6:02Speaker 3: Allelujah. So this is very important.
- 6:06Speaker 2: I land this early in life that there are some
- 6:08Speaker 2: things that are not within the power of men to do.
- 6:13Speaker 2: A man does not have the ability to lift another
- 6:16Speaker 2: man by himself. A man does not have the ability
- 6:21Speaker 2: to change and influence.
- 6:23Speaker 3: Another person by himself.
- 6:25Speaker 2: God stated through scripture the limitations of men. This is
- 6:30Speaker 2: why he made all of the spiritual provisions that empower
- 6:34Speaker 2: men who, though ordinary, now begin to work in realms
- 6:38Speaker 2: and dimensions that don't found principalities and powers are we together,
- 6:46Speaker 2: So inasmuch as we are men, there is a provision
- 6:50Speaker 2: in the dealing of God where men are upgraded to
- 6:53Speaker 2: realms where we.
- 6:54Speaker 3: Function as gods.
- 6:56Speaker 2: This is true that although we are ordinary and fraid
- 7:00Speaker 2: in ourselves, there is still a provision in the dealing
- 7:04Speaker 2: of God where we can receive strength. We can receive wisdom, empowerment,
- 7:09Speaker 2: and all of the spiritual provisions that live us to
- 7:13Speaker 2: the realm that is above the realm of mere men.
- 7:18Speaker 3: Psalm eighty two.
- 7:19Speaker 2: When you read from verse five, the Bible says, they
- 7:22Speaker 2: know not, neither will they understand. They walk on in darkness,
- 7:27Speaker 2: and all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Verse six says I have said, ye are gods, and
- 7:34Speaker 2: all of you are children of the most High. The
- 7:37Speaker 2: tragedies in the next verse seven says, but you shall
- 7:40Speaker 2: die like meyor men, and fall like.
- 7:43Speaker 3: One of these princes.
- 7:48Speaker 2: So I just want to share this morning very briefly,
- 7:51Speaker 2: for the time allotted me on just one spiritual key
- 7:56Speaker 2: that can help ordinary men to rise to supernatural dimensions and.
- 8:03Speaker 3: To make full proof of ministry.
- 8:06Speaker 2: And this one key is the mystery of spiritual empowerment.
- 8:12Speaker 2: I like to plead respectfully that we lend our attention
- 8:15Speaker 2: to understand this also passing truth that if you ever
- 8:20Speaker 2: find a man, a people a ministry excel beyond a
- 8:25Speaker 2: threshold level, they.
- 8:27Speaker 3: Were assisted from the realm of the spirit. This is
- 8:31Speaker 3: true in the secular, this is true with non Christians.
- 8:35Speaker 2: There is a level of results ordinary men cannot produce.
- 8:40Speaker 3: There is a limit.
- 8:42Speaker 2: So when you find out that men excel beyond a level,
- 8:46Speaker 2: immediately that tells you they have outsourced a system of assistance,
- 8:51Speaker 2: whether diabolic or of God. But man on himself on
- 8:56Speaker 2: assistance cannot go beyond certain levels. Allelujah spiritual empowerment. It
- 9:14Speaker 2: is consistent with the character of God as revealed through Scripture,
- 9:20Speaker 2: that he never calls a man and a people and
- 9:24Speaker 2: sends them to represent him on assisted. Every time from Scripture,
- 9:30Speaker 2: when you read, whether it is Abraham, Moses, Esther, or
- 9:34Speaker 2: whoever at all, when God calls people, he makes.
- 9:37Speaker 3: Them and then he sends them.
- 9:39Speaker 2: By the way, let me steal out five minutes just
- 9:41Speaker 2: to say something that I think has been a burden
- 9:44Speaker 2: in my heart for a very very long time. Our
- 9:47Speaker 2: call is not onto ministry. Our call is onto Jesus.
- 9:54Speaker 2: This is very important.
- 9:57Speaker 3: Every time you.
- 9:58Speaker 2: Find Jesus calling people in scripture, he was not calling
- 10:02Speaker 2: them to an assignment.
- 10:03Speaker 3: He was calling them to himself.
- 10:06Speaker 2: Matthew chapter four, for instance, and verse nineteen backond on
- 10:10Speaker 2: these disciples, he said.
- 10:12Speaker 3: Come follow me, Come follow me. Most times, I think
- 10:18Speaker 3: the confusion is that.
- 10:19Speaker 2: We think that the call is a call to ministry,
- 10:22Speaker 2: to a church, to a group, and so we focus
- 10:25Speaker 2: on the platform and the ministry without knowing the true
- 10:31Speaker 2: essence of the call. The believer's call is onto Jesus.
- 10:38Speaker 2: There are several things that happens when you meet Jesus.
- 10:41Speaker 2: One of it is that he makes you come. He says,
- 10:45Speaker 2: follow me, and I will make you. It is when
- 10:51Speaker 2: we are made as a result of that call, then
- 10:53Speaker 2: we are sent. Our assignment starts at the instance of
- 10:58Speaker 2: our being sent, not being called. Just because a man
- 11:02Speaker 2: is called does not mean he has been sent. It's
- 11:05Speaker 2: a mistake that very many well meaning people have made
- 11:09Speaker 2: to their detriment. When he calls you, he calls you
- 11:14Speaker 2: to himself. Then through that fellowship and intimacy. He makes you,
- 11:19Speaker 2: reveals the blueprint of the assignment, then sends you. It
- 11:23Speaker 2: is as the instance of sending you he now empowers you.
- 11:28Speaker 2: But just because you are called, you can now send yourself.
- 11:32Speaker 2: Your call is genuine what you were not sent, and
- 11:36Speaker 2: there are implications to not be.
- 11:38Speaker 3: Sent by God. It is God helping us.
- 11:45Speaker 2: Our calling is onto Jesus, not ministry. I know that
- 11:50Speaker 2: sometimes generically speaking we say we are called. But now,
- 11:53Speaker 2: because we are discussing something that especially is among ministers
- 11:56Speaker 2: of the gospel, our call is onto Jesus. It is
- 12:01Speaker 2: when we fulfill our calling effectively, then we can do
- 12:06Speaker 2: ministry effectively. Empowerment, therefore, happens when we are sent, not
- 12:15Speaker 2: when we are called.
- 12:18Speaker 3: The empowerment for ministry happens when you are sent, not
- 12:22Speaker 3: when you are called.
- 12:25Speaker 2: It is possible to be genuinely called, but because you
- 12:29Speaker 2: have not stayed to be made, you can leave without
- 12:33Speaker 2: the requisite level of empowerment that it takes to excel
- 12:37Speaker 2: in ministry. And there is a plethora of casualties that
- 12:42Speaker 2: can happen to an individual that, even though genuinely called,
- 12:47Speaker 2: was not sent.
- 12:50Speaker 3: Are we together?
- 12:52Speaker 4: Yes?
- 12:53Speaker 2: Look Chapter ten and verse one. Please write it down
- 12:55Speaker 2: for reference sake. Look chapter ten and verse one. Looked
- 13:02Speaker 2: chapter ten and verse one. The Bible says, after these things,
- 13:10Speaker 2: the Lord appointed other seventy.
- 13:12Speaker 3: Also and sends them. Sends them.
- 13:16Speaker 2: Remember once upon a time he called them. When he
- 13:20Speaker 2: called them, it was onto himself. It was a time
- 13:23Speaker 2: of mentorship. It was a time of training. From the
- 13:26Speaker 2: beatitudes to other events. They witnessed him, they saw him board.
- 13:30Speaker 2: He never allowed them to participate in any active They
- 13:34Speaker 2: were students, they were learning. Now, when we get to
- 13:37Speaker 2: look chapter ten, from verse one, the Bible says, he
- 13:40Speaker 2: sent them two by two into every city, with that
- 13:45Speaker 2: himself would come.
- 13:47Speaker 3: He sends them Matthew chapter ten. Matthew chapter ten.
- 13:51Speaker 2: Who read from verse one, who read from verse five,
- 13:54Speaker 2: and then to eight, Matthew chapter ten.
- 14:00Speaker 3: Please Matthew chapter ten. I'll read from verse one.
- 14:08Speaker 2: And when he had called on to him the twelve disciples,
- 14:11Speaker 2: the Bible says, he gave them power against on clean spirits,
- 14:17Speaker 2: to cast them out and to heal all manner of
- 14:21Speaker 2: sickness and all manner of disease. We go to verse five,
- 14:25Speaker 2: and it reads the twelfth Jesus sent fourth the twelfth
- 14:30Speaker 2: Jesus sent.
- 14:31Speaker 3: Fourth.
- 14:32Speaker 2: He sent and commanded them, saying, go not into the
- 14:37Speaker 2: way of the Gentiles, nor into any city of the
- 14:40Speaker 2: Samaritans entire year.
- 14:42Speaker 3: Not, but go rather to the lordship of the House
- 14:44Speaker 3: of Israel.
- 14:45Speaker 2: And as ye go, now that I've sent you, as
- 14:49Speaker 2: ye go, preach, saying, the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.
- 14:53Speaker 2: And whilst doing that, you are empowered to heal the sick.
- 14:57Speaker 2: You are empowered to cleanse the lepers. You are empowered
- 15:01Speaker 2: to raise the dead, to cast out devils. Freely ye
- 15:05Speaker 2: have received, freely give The empowerment is as the instant
- 15:09Speaker 2: of being sent.
- 15:13Speaker 3: Are we blessed this morning? Prays the name of the Lord.
- 15:17Speaker 2: So I presume, by the grace of God, that many
- 15:21Speaker 2: of us have spend time staying with our call, which
- 15:24Speaker 2: is Jesus. That relationship that builds intimacy, that relationship that
- 15:30Speaker 2: builds knowledge. When he called Moses, remember Moses was tending
- 15:35Speaker 2: his father in lostship at the backside of the mountain.
- 15:38Speaker 2: Then the Bible says that Moses saw a bush that
- 15:41Speaker 2: was burning and yet would not be consumed. He said,
- 15:44Speaker 2: I will turn aside and see this great sight. And
- 15:47Speaker 2: when God saw that, he turned aside. He said, Moses,
- 15:51Speaker 2: take off your shoes, for where thou standards is holy ground.
- 15:54Speaker 3: And then he began to reveal himself to Moses.
- 15:57Speaker 2: I am that I am, He said, Now on the
- 15:59Speaker 2: strength of this revelation, I am sending you go to Pharaoh.
- 16:03Speaker 2: This ordinary road, it will now become my road. Because
- 16:07Speaker 2: you've had an encounter with me. Go back to Pharaoh.
- 16:10Speaker 2: If Moses left that encounter without that instruction, he would
- 16:14Speaker 2: have been surprised what would happen in Egypt.
- 16:16Speaker 3: It is risky to send yourself. The mystery is this.
- 16:32Speaker 2: Fulfilling our calling takes a long time, and sometimes it's
- 16:36Speaker 2: embarrassingly hard. God can keep you in one place, and
- 16:41Speaker 2: those who started with you can go far ahead of you,
- 16:44Speaker 2: and God's says remain there.
- 16:46Speaker 3: And sometimes the embarrassment of feeling.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Like your life is not making progress can push us
- 16:52Speaker 2: to graduate ourselves from the school of the spirit into
- 16:55Speaker 2: a realm where we have not been empowered to function.
- 17:02Speaker 2: Staying with God is really the proof of a believer's maturity.
- 17:13Speaker 2: Let's talk a bit on spiritual empowerment Isaiah chapter sixty one.
- 17:18Speaker 2: Theologically speaking, this is known as the Messianic prophecy. It
- 17:22Speaker 2: was directed to Jesus and then by extension, his church,
- 17:25Speaker 2: because the Bible says, we've been grafted into Christ.
- 17:28Speaker 3: Now, so let's look at it very briefly.
- 17:30Speaker 2: Isaiah sixty one. The spirit of the Lord God is
- 17:38Speaker 2: upon me, he said, because the Lord hath anointed me.
- 17:45Speaker 2: Please mark that word anointed. To be anointed means to
- 17:48Speaker 2: be ordained. To be anointed means to legitimize your operations.
- 17:55Speaker 2: That means you are no longer functioning in that capacity illegally,
- 17:59Speaker 2: to legitimize your operation. The spirit of the Lord God
- 18:05Speaker 2: is upon me because he hath anointed, ordained commission, legitimized
- 18:11Speaker 2: me to preach.
- 18:13Speaker 3: Good tithings to the meck.
- 18:15Speaker 2: Now, please just walk with me briefly as we see
- 18:18Speaker 2: the things that the anointing does. It takes the anointing,
- 18:22Speaker 2: not just a good salmon, to preach good tithings to
- 18:26Speaker 2: the meek.
- 18:26Speaker 3: He had sent me. There, you see the word again.
- 18:30Speaker 3: He had sent me to bind up the broken hearted.
- 18:33Speaker 2: It says, to proclaim liberty to the captives, the opening
- 18:37Speaker 2: of prison to them.
- 18:39Speaker 3: That are bound. He had sent me still with his anointing.
- 18:43Speaker 2: To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the
- 18:46Speaker 2: day of vengeance of our God, still with the anointing
- 18:50Speaker 2: and still being sent to comfort all that mon to
- 18:54Speaker 2: appoint onto them that morning Zion, it says, to give
- 18:57Speaker 2: them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning,
- 19:02Speaker 2: the garment of praise for the spirit of heaveness that
- 19:05Speaker 2: they might be called the trees or oaks of righteousness,
- 19:08Speaker 2: the planting of the Lord that he might be glorified,
- 19:13Speaker 2: all because of the anointing. There is no believer who
- 19:17Speaker 2: can thrive in ministry without spiritual empowerment. As great as
- 19:25Speaker 2: Jesus was at ease when he came as the carpenter's son,
- 19:30Speaker 2: he looked helpless for thirty years until he was empowered.
- 19:35Speaker 2: In fact, it will interest you to know that he
- 19:37Speaker 2: worked under a close heaven until his heaven opened. Jesus
- 19:42Speaker 2: needed his heaven to be opened, the Bible says, and
- 19:46Speaker 2: the heaven was opened over him, and the spirit of
- 19:49Speaker 2: the Lord descended upon him as a dove resting upon him.
- 19:53Speaker 2: And then there was a voice that spoke. He said,
- 19:55Speaker 2: this is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased.
- 20:00Speaker 2: And Creation was giving an instruction here ye him. Every
- 20:04Speaker 2: where Jesus went they had to listen because there was a.
- 20:07Speaker 3: Word upon him. Here ye him.
- 20:12Speaker 2: When that word comes upon your ministry, does not matter
- 20:15Speaker 2: the location. When that word comes upon your ministry, it
- 20:18Speaker 2: does not even matter the kind and the level. Here
- 20:21Speaker 2: ye him is an instruction to creation that means never
- 20:24Speaker 2: ig not dis anointing. May that be a prophetic word
- 20:29Speaker 2: for someone in the name of Jesus, the Son of
- 20:32Speaker 2: the Living God. Zacharia, chapter four and verse six. It says,
- 20:39Speaker 2: not by might nor by power, but it is by
- 20:45Speaker 2: my spirit saith the Lord. I arrived here very late yesterday,
- 20:52Speaker 2: and while I was being led to a place where
- 20:54Speaker 2: I passed the night, I just kept nodding my head,
- 20:57Speaker 2: and once again I was reminded that.
- 20:59Speaker 3: So things are not possible with men.
- 21:03Speaker 2: I could see the excellency of the spiritual empowerment upon
- 21:08Speaker 2: this commission upon our father, upon our mother. And while
- 21:12Speaker 2: I went there, I was not just preparing someone. I
- 21:14Speaker 2: was praying and saying, Lord, may something come upon my
- 21:17Speaker 2: own life now that I'm here. Let me know waste
- 21:20Speaker 2: this time doing, preacher, whatever grace that produce this kind
- 21:24Speaker 2: of result that the whole world cannot deny, regardless of tribe,
- 21:29Speaker 2: regardless of whatever it may come upon my own life. Listen,
- 21:35Speaker 2: please it down. There is more to men than all
- 21:38Speaker 2: you see. There is a grace from heaven. Empowerment is real,
- 21:44Speaker 2: the annoying of the Holy Spirit is real. This side
- 21:49Speaker 2: of this country is full of a heritage of the
- 21:53Speaker 2: spiritual history of men and women who, although ordinary and
- 21:58Speaker 2: counter empowerment by spirit of God. And what wonder, some
- 22:02Speaker 2: of them were not educated inasmuch as we know education
- 22:05Speaker 2: to be.
- 22:06Speaker 3: And yet they encounter this.
- 22:08Speaker 2: They encountered this mysterious anointing, and it changed their lives.
- 22:18Speaker 2: Isaiah forty eight and verse sixteen. The Bible says, and
- 22:22Speaker 2: now the Lord and his Spirit had sent me. God
- 22:29Speaker 2: never sends people alone. The Lord Isaiah forty eight and
- 22:33Speaker 2: verse sixteen. The Lord and his Spirit had sent me
- 22:38Speaker 2: to the music ministry, the Lord and his Spirit to
- 22:43Speaker 2: women's ministry, the Lord and his Spirit to a prophetic ministry.
- 22:48Speaker 2: The Lord and his Spirit. We never go alone. It
- 22:52Speaker 2: is always the Lord and his Spirit. In John chapter
- 23:02Speaker 2: twenty and verse twenty one. John chapter twenty and verse
- 23:06Speaker 2: twenty one, Jesus himself was speaking, and he said, as
- 23:09Speaker 2: my father had sent me. So Jesus himself was sent.
- 23:14Speaker 2: He did not just come, he was sent. He said,
- 23:16Speaker 2: as my Father had sent me, so.
- 23:19Speaker 3: Send I you.
- 23:21Speaker 2: That means we have to examine how the Father sent him.
- 23:24Speaker 2: The Father did not send Jesus empty.
- 23:26Speaker 3: He sent him with the spirit.
- 23:28Speaker 2: As Chapter ten and verse thirty eight says, how God
- 23:31Speaker 2: anointed Jesus of Nazareth, It says.
- 23:34Speaker 3: With the holy ghost and with power. The Bible says,
- 23:38Speaker 3: he went about doing good, healing all day.
- 23:41Speaker 2: That were oppressed of the devil, for God was with him,
- 23:50Speaker 2: as my Father has sent me, So send are you.
- 23:54Speaker 2: You may look ordinary, but there is the backing of heaven.
- 23:58Speaker 2: The jealousy of God is invested upon your life. And
- 24:01Speaker 2: and the Bible says, jealousy is the rage of a man.
- 24:04Speaker 2: That means you want to make a man angry touch
- 24:07Speaker 2: his bride. And if it is true that we are
- 24:09Speaker 2: the bride of Christ, the Bible says, regardless gender, this
- 24:12Speaker 2: is a spiritual reality. That means I am sure that
- 24:15Speaker 2: the jealousy of the one who sent me is behind everything.
- 24:19Speaker 3: That I do. Spiritual empowerment.
- 24:29Speaker 2: It's very, very powerful, especially because of the reality of
- 24:33Speaker 2: the times that we live in.
- 24:35Speaker 3: If we most excel in.
- 24:37Speaker 2: Ministry, we most contend for superior dimensions of spiritual empowerment.
- 24:46Speaker 2: Let me use the time I have left to share
- 24:49Speaker 2: just four keys. These are keys that I have seen
- 24:54Speaker 2: from scripture. These are keys that I have gleaned from
- 24:58Speaker 2: our fathers of faith, principles that they have walked in
- 25:04Speaker 2: and has brought them, like ushers into tremendous dimensions of
- 25:09Speaker 2: spiritual empowerment. Number one, the first key that controls spiritual
- 25:15Speaker 2: empowerment helping us to make full proof of ministry is
- 25:22Speaker 2: consecration and intimacy with God. Please write it down. The
- 25:26Speaker 2: first key that is responsible for such a lavish investment
- 25:32Speaker 2: of God's grace and God's anointing when you find a
- 25:36Speaker 2: man that is so lavishly anointed, when you find a
- 25:39Speaker 2: woman that is so lavishly empowered by the spirit behind
- 25:43Speaker 2: that empowerment, is consecration and intimacy with God.
- 25:50Speaker 3: First John, Chapter two, Please from verse fifteen.
- 25:53Speaker 2: For the sake of time again, I'll just quote it
- 25:55Speaker 2: very quickly, but right from fifteen to seventeen First John
- 26:00Speaker 2: up to two.
- 26:00Speaker 3: From verse fifteen to.
- 26:02Speaker 2: Seventeen, Apostle Paul Apostle John now was teaching us, and
- 26:08Speaker 2: he made a very instructive statement yes, what he said.
- 26:11Speaker 3: He said, love not the world. Love not the world,
- 26:16Speaker 3: neither the things that are in the world.
- 26:20Speaker 2: He says, if any man, regardless loves the world, it
- 26:24Speaker 2: is proof that the love of the Father is not
- 26:27Speaker 2: in him. The word love not the world here does
- 26:30Speaker 2: not mean to not be blessed. It doesn't mean to
- 26:32Speaker 2: sincerely desire good things. Is from the word errors and
- 26:36Speaker 2: on godly affinity, an affinity and attachment that can can
- 26:41Speaker 2: kill your relationship with God. Love not the world, he says,
- 26:47Speaker 2: do not develop and on Godly affinity for the world
- 26:52Speaker 2: the system, neither the things that are in the world.
- 26:55Speaker 2: That if at any point you find out that your
- 26:58Speaker 2: heart is falling way for the things of this life,
- 27:02Speaker 2: it is proved that the love of the Father you
- 27:05Speaker 2: is being threatened. And he categorizes this level of lost
- 27:08Speaker 2: into three number one. He calls it the lost of
- 27:11Speaker 2: the eyes on godly affinity that comes to your life
- 27:17Speaker 2: by reason of the things you see. These eyes that
- 27:25Speaker 2: God gave us has an implication because there are things
- 27:29Speaker 2: when you see. There are many temptations and many troubles
- 27:33Speaker 2: in our lives that came on account of having eyes
- 27:35Speaker 2: that see.
- 27:37Speaker 3: Is that true? The lost of the eyes.
- 27:41Speaker 2: Number two, the lost of the flesh, that this flesh
- 27:47Speaker 2: and this body we wear must constantly be kept on
- 27:51Speaker 2: that check.
- 27:52Speaker 3: Because there are appetites.
- 27:56Speaker 2: And I'm not just talking of things like fornication and
- 27:58Speaker 2: adultery alone, talking of others like gluttony and slumber, sleep.
- 28:04Speaker 2: These are things that can erode the power and the
- 28:07Speaker 2: grace of God upon them. Life of a minister. Bible says,
- 28:13Speaker 2: a little sleep and a little slumber, a little folding
- 28:15Speaker 2: off the eyes, and poverty will come upon you like
- 28:18Speaker 2: an unbandit.
- 28:20Speaker 3: It takes tamina.
- 28:22Speaker 2: And it says, whild shepherd watch their flocks by night.
- 28:26Speaker 2: They should be sleeping in the night, but a good
- 28:29Speaker 2: shepherd lays down his life even by night they were
- 28:31Speaker 2: still watching their flocks. Is God speaking to us consecration
- 28:39Speaker 2: and intimacy. We must continually pray that God will grant
- 28:44Speaker 2: us grace. That the higher we rise in ministry, the
- 28:48Speaker 2: purer our hearts towards Him, and the more detached we
- 28:51Speaker 2: are from the blessings that come to us. The temptation
- 28:55Speaker 2: is that as God continues to lift us and prosper
- 28:58Speaker 2: his work in our life, chances a that we can
- 29:02Speaker 2: become complacant and focus on these things and not here.
- 29:09Speaker 2: I prayed many times and cry to God that if
- 29:12Speaker 2: you will ever give me anything that sustains the ability
- 29:15Speaker 2: of taking my focus away from you, and I'm praying
- 29:19Speaker 2: it even I'm on us and on the stage, and
- 29:20Speaker 2: may it never come to me.
- 29:23Speaker 3: It's true, money, fame, these things are wonderful, but they
- 29:31Speaker 3: have a subtle way of distracting your focus.
- 29:36Speaker 2: You must That's why programs like this and conferences like
- 29:39Speaker 2: this are truly powerful, because they help us to bring
- 29:43Speaker 2: us back to alignment all of the distractions that have
- 29:46Speaker 2: eaten up our focus.
- 29:48Speaker 3: When with Tabernacle for this like this, then it refires our.
- 29:51Speaker 2: Focus once again. Proverbs after twenty three and verse twenty six.
- 29:59Speaker 2: Very powerful, it says, my son, even though you are
- 30:03Speaker 2: my son, give me thy heart, not your money, not
- 30:08Speaker 2: your offering, not your ministry, not your singing, not your preaching.
- 30:13Speaker 3: What I want is your heart. No matter what else
- 30:18Speaker 3: you give me. If your heart is far away from me,
- 30:20Speaker 3: I'm still searching for something, my son.
- 30:23Speaker 2: These are the secrets to the anointing, authentic, genuine annointing.
- 30:30Speaker 4: My son.
- 30:32Speaker 2: Thank you for your good preaching, Thank you for your
- 30:36Speaker 2: your excellent administration. Thank you for your intellectual progress. But
- 30:41Speaker 2: what I require, if it is my anointing, you want,
- 30:45Speaker 2: is your heart. I've said it that the price for
- 30:48Speaker 2: all of God is all of you. All of you
- 30:52Speaker 2: is the price. The price for life is death. My son,
- 30:59Speaker 2: give me thine heart, Give me your heart. Can we
- 31:06Speaker 2: turn this into a prayer? One minute? Lord, I surrender
- 31:10Speaker 2: my entire heart and my life, not just my parish,
- 31:15Speaker 2: not just my church, not just my bank account, my heart.
- 31:19Speaker 3: Whatever I sin in your heart is your God. I
- 31:21Speaker 3: hand it over.
- 31:23Speaker 2: Please, let's take a minute and do a handover service,
- 31:27Speaker 2: a handover ceremony. I am tired of owning my own
- 31:31Speaker 2: life and my own heart. It's brought me a lot
- 31:34Speaker 2: of troubles. I hand over my heart to you.
- 31:40Speaker 3: When I got born again, I received your life.
- 31:42Speaker 2: But now for the sake of the service of the kingdom,
- 31:46Speaker 2: receive my heart, my son, Give me your heart. If
- 31:51Speaker 2: someone praying, take my heart. I gave you my church, boss,
- 32:00Speaker 2: I gave you my church account, wonderful. I gave you
- 32:04Speaker 2: my talent, wonderful. I gave you part of my fame.
- 32:11Speaker 2: But God is saying more than that, I need your heart.
- 32:15Speaker 2: I do not trust you until you can trust me
- 32:18Speaker 2: with your heart. Allelujah. Consecration, consecration and intimacy with God.
- 32:35Speaker 2: Let me challenge us respectfully this morning that as a
- 32:39Speaker 2: minister of the gospel, if a major part of your
- 32:42Speaker 2: life is on stage, you are not doing effective ministry.
- 32:47Speaker 2: A major part of your life should be behind the veil.
- 32:51Speaker 2: That is really where the fellowship is. And sometimes I
- 32:55Speaker 2: know that we live very busy schedules. It's possible to
- 32:59Speaker 2: keep doing ministry and keep preaching where us the wine
- 33:03Speaker 2: has finished. In the wedding in Kena of Galilee, the
- 33:06Speaker 2: feast was still on, and the Bible says, and the
- 33:09Speaker 2: wine finished. We must trust God to find the flames
- 33:18Speaker 2: of the secret place again. We must trust God for
- 33:22Speaker 2: grace to periodically shot down from activities, no matter how great,
- 33:29Speaker 2: because that's where He found us, and that's where those who.
- 33:33Speaker 3: Celebrate us they met us.
- 33:34Speaker 4: There.
- 33:34Speaker 3: We must remain.
- 33:35Speaker 4: There.
- 33:40Speaker 3: Is God speaking to us this morning.
- 33:47Speaker 2: We're fame found you, We're lifting found you, We're open
- 33:52Speaker 2: doors found you.
- 33:54Speaker 3: I pray that you will remain there.
- 33:57Speaker 4: Yes, sir, take the stage.
- 34:09Speaker 3: Lord, that's what nothing else busses sound for us.
- 34:13Speaker 4: Have your way. I'm just a verse.
- 34:20Speaker 3: Nothing more. When you're done, please take the glove.
- 34:32Speaker 2: I'm satisfied just to see you glorify. You need to
- 34:40Speaker 2: strengthen your intimacy with God. Men can clap you to
- 34:44Speaker 2: your destruction. Five minutes to your fault, they will still
- 34:48Speaker 2: be clappy, and when your fall they would trample upon you.
- 34:52Speaker 2: God is speaking to someone this morning. Return to the
- 34:55Speaker 2: secret place you have held the micy enough, drop it
- 34:59Speaker 2: and leave them there. If they say where are you going,
- 35:02Speaker 2: tell them I'm going to wear I was before this
- 35:05Speaker 2: mic found me. I'm going to wear I was before
- 35:08Speaker 2: fame found me where I was before lifting found me.
- 35:15Speaker 2: When you're done, please take the glove. I'm sadisfine just
- 35:26Speaker 2: to see you glorified.
- 35:30Speaker 5: Your all lie one, not ministry, Your all liveveny, your
- 35:45Speaker 5: a lie one.
- 35:49Speaker 3: Hellas Sabajasha Kata.
- 35:51Speaker 4: Help me know.
- 35:56Speaker 3: More than the accolades of men.
- 36:07Speaker 4: You love.
- 36:27Speaker 3: The patriarchs of faith. Study the history of the church
- 36:31Speaker 3: in Nigeria.
- 36:32Speaker 2: Most of the mighty people who were used did not
- 36:35Speaker 2: plan to be ministry. They wanted God so passionately. They
- 36:39Speaker 2: were not looking for mikes and names and faith. They
- 36:42Speaker 2: wanted Him and the power of God. Met them at
- 36:46Speaker 2: the place.
- 36:46Speaker 3: Of your hunger intimacy with God. Let's hurry up. What
- 36:53Speaker 3: time is almost over for someone.
- 36:58Speaker 2: Let me encourage that every space time or break we have,
- 37:01Speaker 2: let it be spent alone with God.
- 37:05Speaker 3: Two hours to rest, three hours to rest.
- 37:07Speaker 2: Just lock yourself and say, Lord, I'm still here again.
- 37:11Speaker 2: Let my voice not be strange to the realm of
- 37:13Speaker 2: the spirit. Let demons witness me worshiping my King. Let
- 37:17Speaker 2: them let them be part of the testifiers that my
- 37:22Speaker 2: secret place has not been left able. Number two, what
- 37:31Speaker 2: is the second key that controls on usual dimensions of
- 37:35Speaker 2: the anointing.
- 37:39Speaker 3: The power of the world of God. Genuine anointing cannot
- 37:49Speaker 3: be separated from the world of God.
- 37:56Speaker 2: Now I know that there are all kinds of propositions
- 37:58Speaker 2: today that attempt to downplace Word of God.
- 38:05Speaker 3: But the Bible says John one, verse three, and without
- 38:09Speaker 3: him was not anything made that was made. The Word
- 38:16Speaker 3: of God makes it creates.
- 38:22Speaker 2: Probabs Chapter twenty three and verse twenty six, where we
- 38:25Speaker 2: read earlier on he said, my son.
- 38:27Speaker 3: Give me your heart. First instruction. The second instruction is
- 38:31Speaker 3: let your it says, and observe my ways. Observe my ways.
- 38:41Speaker 2: A very interesting scripture that has blessed me. Harber Cook,
- 38:45Speaker 2: Chapter three, from verse three to four. If you read
- 38:48Speaker 2: this and amplified it will bless you. Harba Cook, Chapter three,
- 38:52Speaker 2: verse three to four. The verse of emphasis. Verse four.
- 38:55Speaker 3: The Bible says, in.
- 38:56Speaker 2: That light, the ray that comes from his hand, and
- 39:00Speaker 2: that light is the hiding place of his power.
- 39:05Speaker 3: The power of God is hidden in his light. That
- 39:08Speaker 3: means when the light of God comes, his power is
- 39:11Speaker 3: also available there.
- 39:13Speaker 2: Genuine annointing is a product of encounter with the word
- 39:17Speaker 2: of God.
- 39:20Speaker 3: There is the hiding place you're looking for. The power
- 39:25Speaker 3: of God is hidden in his world.
- 39:31Speaker 2: When you feast with the word of God, when you
- 39:34Speaker 2: study the word of God, not just to get his salmon.
- 39:39Speaker 3: This is my daily bread, your very word spoken to me.
- 39:55Speaker 3: Then I'm preforming.
- 40:05Speaker 4: Thank you.
- 40:07Speaker 2: The word of God. I found your world and I
- 40:10Speaker 2: did it. It was a joy and rejoicing to my soul.
- 40:17Speaker 3: Please, we must trust God for grace to invest in
- 40:20Speaker 3: the world.
- 40:21Speaker 2: Invest in the world. I don't know about you. I
- 40:24Speaker 2: thank God for the power of technology. But there is
- 40:26Speaker 2: something about holding your Bible and sitting down and looking
- 40:30Speaker 2: at it.
- 40:30Speaker 4: Now.
- 40:31Speaker 3: Please, I'm not don't feel insulted. I'm not against.
- 40:35Speaker 2: You know, electronic devices and all of that, but there
- 40:38Speaker 2: is something about making contact with the Word of God,
- 40:42Speaker 2: matching something, writing something to remind you. We must obtain
- 40:48Speaker 2: grace to invest in the world. Part of the requirements
- 40:52Speaker 2: of a man of God is that we study to
- 40:54Speaker 2: show ourselves approved. The Bible says, a workman that needs
- 40:58Speaker 2: not to be a shame. He says rightly dividing the world.
- 41:04Speaker 3: We must be sound in doctrine.
- 41:07Speaker 2: We must be able to communicate truth with power, balance, intelligence.
- 41:13Speaker 3: And grace.
- 41:16Speaker 2: The third key, very quickly, the third key to genuine
- 41:20Speaker 2: spiritual empowerment prayer with fasting, not just prayer and fasting,
- 41:27Speaker 2: Prayer with fasting.
- 41:31Speaker 3: When you read.
- 41:33Speaker 2: Matthew chapter four, from verse one and two, the Temptation
- 41:38Speaker 2: of Jesus, the Bible says, after the Holy Ghost came
- 41:41Speaker 2: upon him, the Holy Spirit drove him into the wilderness,
- 41:44Speaker 2: and for a period of forty days.
- 41:46Speaker 3: The Bible says that he fasted and he prayed.
- 41:50Speaker 2: Then, after being tempted of the devil, I think his
- 41:52Speaker 2: looks account, he said.
- 41:54Speaker 3: And he returned in the power of the spirit.
- 41:58Speaker 2: He returned in the power of the spirit, and his
- 42:01Speaker 2: fame went abroad, returned in the power.
- 42:05Speaker 3: Of the spirit. Prayer and fasting has.
- 42:09Speaker 2: Been the age long key to genuine empowerment and genuine revival.
- 42:13Speaker 2: Prayer with fasting prayer, with fasting prayer, with fasting heartfelt prayer.
- 42:21Speaker 3: James Chapter five.
- 42:23Speaker 2: When you read from verse thirteen to eighteen, thirteen to
- 42:26Speaker 2: eighteen is the context, but we'll just focus on sixteen
- 42:31Speaker 2: being to eighteen. Here's what it says. Verse thirteen. He says,
- 42:34Speaker 2: is any man afflicted, he says, let him pray. Then,
- 42:37Speaker 2: when we get to the be part of sixteen, he says,
- 42:40Speaker 2: the pavant and effectual prayer of the righteous are vailed much.
- 42:47Speaker 2: Then he uses a personality in scripture to show us
- 42:50Speaker 2: the excellency of prayer. He says, Elijah was a man
- 42:54Speaker 2: of like passion, meaning he was in every way human.
- 42:57Speaker 3: Yet he was able to pray.
- 43:00Speaker 2: That he prayed earnestly, that there had been no rain
- 43:03Speaker 2: for his space of three and a half years. A
- 43:06Speaker 2: man single handedly used prayer to shot the heavens over
- 43:10Speaker 2: a territory, and then when the time had elapsed, he
- 43:13Speaker 2: prayed again. That means what prayer did yesterday can still
- 43:17Speaker 2: do again. Looked Chapter eighteen and verse one. He spake
- 43:23Speaker 2: this parable to the end that men ought always to
- 43:27Speaker 2: pray and not to faith. Then it says there was
- 43:30Speaker 2: in a certain city a George that did not fear
- 43:35Speaker 2: God nor regard men. Then in that city there was
- 43:39Speaker 2: a widow, the Bible says, a woman who had lost
- 43:42Speaker 2: her system of defense. And she came to him barely
- 43:47Speaker 2: and said, avenge me my adversity. And for a long
- 43:51Speaker 2: time he would not pay attention to her, the Bible says,
- 43:54Speaker 2: but for her continualcoming, her importunity, he said, even though
- 43:58Speaker 2: I do not fear God and I do not regard men,
- 44:01Speaker 2: yet this woman who weary me. That means there is
- 44:04Speaker 2: something prayer does. There is something it does to the
- 44:07Speaker 2: power of darkness. You may be weak and defenseless, but
- 44:11Speaker 2: prayer can give you immunity.
- 44:13Speaker 3: It can supply strength. Asks chapter one from verse eight.
- 44:22Speaker 2: The preceding versus, Jesus was having his last session, final
- 44:26Speaker 2: session with the one twenty before he would ascend to heaven.
- 44:30Speaker 3: And they said, will you are this time restore the
- 44:32Speaker 3: nation of Israel?
- 44:33Speaker 2: He said, it is not for you to know the
- 44:35Speaker 2: times and the seasons that the Father has put within
- 44:38Speaker 2: his care.
- 44:38Speaker 3: Verse eight says, but ye shall receive power.
- 44:41Speaker 2: After that the Holy goost has come upon you, it says,
- 44:44Speaker 2: and you shall be witnesses onto me Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria,
- 44:50Speaker 2: to the aultmost part of the earth.
- 44:51Speaker 3: Then we go to Ansks chapter two and verse one.
- 44:54Speaker 2: It says, now when the day of Pentacles was fully come,
- 44:57Speaker 2: that they were gathered together.
- 44:58Speaker 3: In one accord.
- 45:00Speaker 2: Suddenly there was a sound like it was in Ezekiel
- 45:03Speaker 2: thirty seven. And then the Bible says that they saw
- 45:06Speaker 2: the Holy goos came and filled them, and they receive
- 45:09Speaker 2: clothing tongues. Now, in chapter one, verse eight, he never
- 45:13Speaker 2: said you will receive tongues. He said the name of
- 45:15Speaker 2: whatever comes from you is called power. But in adt
- 45:19Speaker 2: chapter two we do not see power, but we see tongues.
- 45:22Speaker 2: That means there is a relationship between the prayer language
- 45:25Speaker 2: of tongues and spiritual power.
- 45:27Speaker 3: He said you will receive power. But in that chapter
- 45:30Speaker 3: two we do not see any power there. But what
- 45:32Speaker 3: we see is a language that was given to men.
- 45:38Speaker 3: So when you.
- 45:38Speaker 2: Engage in prayer, truly you become powerful. Show me a
- 45:44Speaker 2: weak believer, very weak and timid believer. Show me a ministry.
- 45:49Speaker 2: A minister without results, invest genuine quality time to pray,
- 45:55Speaker 2: prayer for edification, not just supplication. Edification that you generate
- 46:01Speaker 2: energy in the spirit. And I show you a believer
- 46:04Speaker 2: that we work in tremendous levels of power.
- 46:08Speaker 3: Number four. I plead that we pay attention to this
- 46:15Speaker 3: fourth key. I'm ramping up.
- 46:18Speaker 2: This is a very deep mystery, and I'm glad that
- 46:23Speaker 2: we're in such a prophetic platform. Is my prayer that
- 46:26Speaker 2: will maximize this fourth key. The fourth key that controls
- 46:30Speaker 2: spiritual empowerment is called impartation. Impartation is a very deep mystery.
- 46:42Speaker 2: Is the transference of spiritual possibilities? Is that Chapter nine
- 46:47Speaker 2: and verse eight, the Bible says the Lord sent a
- 46:51Speaker 2: word to Jacob, but it lighted upon Israel. That means
- 46:56Speaker 2: every time God wants to transfer a dimension of his
- 46:59Speaker 2: grace to it people, the way he does it is
- 47:01Speaker 2: to find an individual. Are we together now that everything
- 47:05Speaker 2: he does to an individual is for the sake of
- 47:08Speaker 2: a people. So when God empowered our father that is
- 47:15Speaker 2: Jew and our mother mommy Jew, he had us in
- 47:18Speaker 2: mind when that was happening. That when he sends a
- 47:21Speaker 2: word to Jacob, it is because he intends for the entire.
- 47:25Speaker 3: Israel to benefit from it.
- 47:29Speaker 2: Impartation is powerful. Philippine, Chapter one and verse seven. Ast
- 47:33Speaker 2: Paul was mentoring the Church and Philippi, and he said,
- 47:36Speaker 2: we are all.
- 47:37Speaker 3: Partakers of my grace.
- 47:40Speaker 2: That means men can become the partakers of an individual's grace.
- 47:45Speaker 2: The grace on a ministry can come on an individual.
- 47:48Speaker 2: The grace on a man and a woman of God
- 47:50Speaker 2: can come on an individual.
- 47:56Speaker 3: Allelujah.
- 47:59Speaker 2: There are many people doing great things for God around
- 48:02Speaker 2: the world, around this nation. And you say the thing
- 48:05Speaker 2: about the anointing, The anointing is like an address.
- 48:08Speaker 3: You can know where it came from. Impartitions are like addresses.
- 48:13Speaker 3: You can carry it.
- 48:15Speaker 2: Grace you did not come here with and return back
- 48:17Speaker 2: and your results will show immediately.
- 48:19Speaker 3: And you see.
- 48:20Speaker 2: The thing about importation is that what is on you
- 48:23Speaker 2: is what controls what is around you. I can't know
- 48:29Speaker 2: what is on you by looking at the results you
- 48:31Speaker 2: command around you. Thou anointest my head with oil, But
- 48:37Speaker 2: I see what is on my head by.
- 48:39Speaker 3: Looking at my cop. It is my cop.
- 48:41Speaker 2: It's not the cop that is anointed, it's my head
- 48:44Speaker 2: that is anointed. But I know the result on my
- 48:47Speaker 2: head by looking at what.
- 48:48Speaker 3: Happens to my cop.
- 48:50Speaker 2: Thou anointed my head with oil, my ministry runs over.
- 48:54Speaker 2: Thou anointed my head with oil, my business runs over.
- 48:57Speaker 2: So if my cop, my ministry, my business, whatever it is,
- 49:01Speaker 2: it's not running over. The problem is not the cop.
- 49:04Speaker 2: The problem is that there is insufficient oil on your head.
- 49:11Speaker 3: At any level.
- 49:13Speaker 2: In the spirit, there is still room for greater levels
- 49:16Speaker 2: of the annointeen numbers, Chapter twenty seven two scriptures will
- 49:21Speaker 2: be our last numbers twenty seven from verse eighteen to
- 49:26Speaker 2: twenty numbers twenty seven. From verse eighteen to twenty. Moses
- 49:34Speaker 2: was instructed to anoint Aaron. I wish it could be projected.
- 49:41Speaker 2: Let me rush there so that we just read numbers.
- 49:44Speaker 2: Chapter twenty seven right, verse eighteen. Here's what it says.
- 49:52Speaker 2: And the Lord said on to Moses, take the Joshua,
- 49:57Speaker 2: the son of None, a man in whom is the spirit.
- 50:02Speaker 2: Already he already had the spirit, he said, notwithstanding, lay
- 50:11Speaker 2: your hands upon him, and set him before in years,
- 50:15Speaker 2: at the priest and before the congregation, and.
- 50:18Speaker 3: Give him a charge in your sight.
- 50:21Speaker 2: May you never forget verse twenty. Look what is written
- 50:25Speaker 2: there verse twenty. He says, and thou shalt put some
- 50:29Speaker 2: of your honor on him. Oh NOI is transferrable honor,
- 50:34Speaker 2: say grace that can leave someone to someone. There is
- 50:39Speaker 2: a real grace called honor. No matter how valuable an
- 50:45Speaker 2: individual is, if you do not have that grace, you
- 50:48Speaker 2: will be despised. The Kingdom of God operates by anointings
- 50:57Speaker 2: and graces. That means, for every dimension of results in
- 51:02Speaker 2: the Kingdom, there is a grace allocated for it. If
- 51:05Speaker 2: it's prosperity, there is a grace allocated. If it's speed,
- 51:09Speaker 2: there is a grace. If it's influence and honor, there
- 51:12Speaker 2: is a grace allocated. Our assignment is through humility and
- 51:18Speaker 2: meekness and discernment to be able to outsource some of
- 51:22Speaker 2: these graces that are not in our lives and continue
- 51:25Speaker 2: to improve on our results. At every point in our lives,
- 51:29Speaker 2: we should be conscious of the graces that are deficient.
- 51:32Speaker 2: The Bible says and God is able to make all grace.
- 51:37Speaker 2: That means grace is not just generic all grace. I
- 51:40Speaker 2: can have the grace for wisdom and not have the
- 51:43Speaker 2: grace for favor. I can have the grace for wisdom
- 51:48Speaker 2: and not have speed.
- 51:49Speaker 3: In my life.
- 51:51Speaker 2: So my assignment is that in a conference like this,
- 51:54Speaker 2: I humble myself before God and start asking, Lord, you
- 51:57Speaker 2: have done well for me here in the area of prosperity.
- 52:00Speaker 3: You have settled me. But it looks like my life
- 52:02Speaker 3: is slow.
- 52:03Speaker 2: So you begin to discern that becomes your prayer request.
- 52:06Speaker 2: As words keep coming, you know what you are receiving,
- 52:09Speaker 2: the graceful speed, and when it comes, it shows immediately.
- 52:15Speaker 2: Elijah followed Elijah, and Elijah said, what are you looking for?
- 52:19Speaker 2: He says, a double portion. He said, you've asked a
- 52:21Speaker 2: hard thing. However, if you can, if you are that
- 52:24Speaker 2: focus to see me, to see me means if you
- 52:27Speaker 2: discern what I represent beyond my human body.
- 52:31Speaker 3: And he said, my father, my father, the chariots.
- 52:35Speaker 2: Of Israel and the horsemen thereof, And the Bible says
- 52:39Speaker 2: that the man to came on him when he went
- 52:41Speaker 2: to Jordan.
- 52:42Speaker 3: He said, where is the Lord, God of Elijah? Several
- 52:51Speaker 3: years ago?
- 52:51Speaker 2: I was in a rent hard bunker crusade, and I
- 52:54Speaker 2: made up my mind that there was a grace upon
- 52:56Speaker 2: that man that I desired in my life. There for
- 53:00Speaker 2: six hours the first day, very simple message, and I
- 53:05Speaker 2: saw mad velous things happen. By the second day, I said,
- 53:09Speaker 2: I have to serve this annointing. It's not the show
- 53:12Speaker 2: man of God now. And when I came, I was
- 53:15Speaker 2: I was serving doing They said no, no, no, you're
- 53:17Speaker 2: not in any committee. I said, committee or no committee.
- 53:20Speaker 2: I came here with hunger to receive. When you are
- 53:23Speaker 2: desperate to receive, you drop everything aside and pursue sincerely.
- 53:28Speaker 3: I stood there for six hours.
- 53:31Speaker 2: I humorously would say that there was a pregnant woman
- 53:34Speaker 2: close to me, and because of a pregnancy, I don't
- 53:36Speaker 2: know what brought her.
- 53:37Speaker 3: To that to save ground.
- 53:38Speaker 2: Occasionally she would lean on me. And at a point
- 53:40Speaker 2: I said, madam, we're all standing here too.
- 53:42Speaker 3: We're tired, you know. And then here's the encounter.
- 53:50Speaker 2: He preached a simple message that night, and he was
- 53:53Speaker 2: about to take a cup of water so that you
- 53:55Speaker 2: would minister the baptism. That was the first time my
- 53:58Speaker 2: eyes were opened to see the visible manifestation of the
- 54:04Speaker 2: Holy Spirit. I saw a big bird as big as
- 54:07Speaker 2: this auditorial hovering around the entire whuseid Graul. I thought
- 54:13Speaker 2: everybody was seeing it. It had silvery, silvery linings like this,
- 54:18Speaker 2: just not flapping the wings and the Spirit of God
- 54:21Speaker 2: took me to Genesis chapter one, from verse one and two,
- 54:24Speaker 2: and the spirit over drown the face of the waters,
- 54:29Speaker 2: and the Holy Ghost told me that the union between
- 54:32Speaker 2: the spoken word and the movement of the spirit is
- 54:34Speaker 2: what produces miracles. When I came back to myself, I
- 54:38Speaker 2: was back in the stage. I said, thank you Jesus,
- 54:40Speaker 2: I know that I've received this impartitions are real. You
- 54:47Speaker 2: can obtain it grace, allelujah. One time I had the
- 54:55Speaker 2: opportunity of sneaking into the redemption camp here and I
- 54:59Speaker 2: had the honor and the privilege of being taken to
- 55:05Speaker 2: the prayer room of our Father.
- 55:07Speaker 3: When I lay down there, I cried, I prayed.
- 55:10Speaker 2: I said, Lord, there is one thing you have a
- 55:13Speaker 2: covenant of answered prayer made that grace and that importation
- 55:17Speaker 2: rest upon my life. Why will one person say, may
- 55:21Speaker 2: God bless you and your life changes, and someone who
- 55:23Speaker 2: said one hundred times before the same thing happens, and
- 55:26Speaker 2: yet the Bible says the same Lord is rich onto all.
- 55:30Speaker 3: My prayer in this morning devotion is that someone would.
- 55:34Speaker 2: Discern importation cannot happen until there is discernment, discernment away
- 55:41Speaker 2: from what you already have.
- 55:44Speaker 3: Look to that which is not yet there impartition.
- 55:54Speaker 2: I truly believe in the transference of the annointing. One
- 55:58Speaker 2: last story and then will pray. Many years ago.
- 56:05Speaker 3: I was in Jos.
- 56:07Speaker 2: And then I went to buy sugar cane, and I
- 56:13Speaker 2: saw a group of mothers. I have profound respect for women,
- 56:17Speaker 2: especially mothers, and I said, no, no, no, no, no, mommy, please,
- 56:22Speaker 2: I'm your son. Would you allow me pay for it?
- 56:23Speaker 2: It was not more than one hundred mirra?
- 56:25Speaker 3: And I said no. They were struggling to remove money.
- 56:28Speaker 2: From their you know this thing they tie year and
- 56:30Speaker 2: I said, please, let me do it, give me the honor.
- 56:33Speaker 2: And they were watching me. I paid for that sugar cane,
- 56:36Speaker 2: and you know, paid for them too, And the women
- 56:40Speaker 2: started blessing me.
- 56:41Speaker 3: For some reason. I don't know why. I did not
- 56:43Speaker 3: pay attention to what they said.
- 56:45Speaker 2: But then one of them looked at me strangely and said,
- 56:47Speaker 2: my son, forever I woke upon gold.
- 56:55Speaker 3: I knew that woman was not an Ordnarry woman.
- 57:00Speaker 2: It was on the way here, going to Ekity, I
- 57:03Speaker 2: stopped at a little village. Now I don't know the
- 57:05Speaker 2: names of your places here, forgive me. I remember stopping there,
- 57:11Speaker 2: I saw that people within these regions lived strangely and
- 57:15Speaker 2: mysteriously long. I said, I need the grace for long
- 57:17Speaker 2: life because I know the kind of call God.
- 57:19Speaker 3: Has given me, and I know the attacks I remember.
- 57:27Speaker 3: And now I don't speak Uruba, maybe just a bit
- 57:30Speaker 3: of it.
- 57:31Speaker 2: And then we finally found someone who could interpret the
- 57:35Speaker 2: English for us. I said, please, where is the oldest
- 57:38Speaker 2: man in this place? I went to preaching kity on
- 57:40Speaker 2: my way back, and then they took us to an
- 57:44Speaker 2: old man and we said, please, I'm.
- 57:46Speaker 4: A man of God.
- 57:48Speaker 3: We just came to honor your grace and.
- 57:50Speaker 2: That you speak whatever has kept you long. I went
- 57:53Speaker 2: to a place and I saw one hundred and thirty something.
- 57:56Speaker 3: He just died.
- 57:57Speaker 2: I said, please, where is the wife of this man
- 58:00Speaker 2: still alive? Because two have become one. Anyway, that man
- 58:06Speaker 2: prayed and released that grace. Do you know when we
- 58:08Speaker 2: met him and they explained to him, I thought the
- 58:11Speaker 2: man he said, no, no, no, no, all graces just
- 58:13Speaker 2: come from God.
- 58:13Speaker 3: He loved.
- 58:14Speaker 2: He said, nildaw. He began to pray for me in Eurobe.
- 58:18Speaker 2: But honestly, I wasn't even interested in what he was saying.
- 58:21Speaker 2: I just felt like a crown true story was put
- 58:24Speaker 2: on my head. When he was done, we sowed into
- 58:27Speaker 2: his life. I was on my way to go and
- 58:29Speaker 2: entered the vehicle and someone called my attention and said,
- 58:31Speaker 2: this man that died one hundred.
- 58:33Speaker 3: And thirty six, that's his wife standing there. I could
- 58:36Speaker 3: not believe it. That woman was like a hundred and something. Yes,
- 58:40Speaker 3: she was standing and I said, can they take me back?
- 58:45Speaker 2: I said, man, I don't know what to call you now,
- 58:47Speaker 2: but please can you pray for me?
- 58:50Speaker 3: And the woman tapped me.
- 58:51Speaker 2: We entered the room and she was showing me the
- 58:53Speaker 2: pictures of her husband that was the husband of a youth.
- 58:59Speaker 2: They were too from very early black and white photos.
- 59:03Speaker 2: And she showed me around and I said that you
- 59:05Speaker 2: helped tell her that plae. I don't know if i'll
- 59:08Speaker 2: call myself your grandson or your great grandson. Mama, please
- 59:12Speaker 2: let me not live here like this.
- 59:13Speaker 3: Do you know what she did?
- 59:14Speaker 2: She said that should tell me to kneel down. She
- 59:16Speaker 2: took off both of her shoes and stood on bare foot.
- 59:20Speaker 2: Now I don't know what that means.
- 59:21Speaker 3: Yeah, but that woman she stood.
- 59:24Speaker 2: On her feet and more than fifteen minutes she was
- 59:27Speaker 2: reigning prophecy upon my life. People don't rise by mistake.
- 59:31Speaker 2: There are mysterious anointings that lived people. We're wrapping up.
- 59:39Speaker 2: My time is off, but we're.
- 59:40Speaker 3: Going to pray.
- 59:41Speaker 2: Any body you see excelling Beyond this satain level.
- 59:45Speaker 3: There are mysterious graces.
- 59:48Speaker 2: There are always stories, and most times these stories are
- 59:52Speaker 2: not said because we want Jesus to be glorified, But
- 59:55Speaker 2: there are stories behind the rising of people, behind them
- 1:00:00Speaker 2: mysterious lifting of people.
- 1:00:02Speaker 3: Was it not somewhere that calls Saul and said, come up?
- 1:00:05Speaker 3: He said, is it not?
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: Because the Lord has anointed you to be captain over
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: his people.
- 1:00:10Speaker 3: Someone is going to pray.
- 1:00:14Speaker 2: That all of the vessels that stand here to minister,
- 1:00:18Speaker 2: especially our mother in the Lord.
- 1:00:20Speaker 3: Beyond what she's saying, there are graces.
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: Test tenments of sacrifice, Yes, of pain and covenance with
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: God Father been coming for feast of estherbody to not
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: be like before again. Something must come upon my life.
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: Just two minutes for us to cry. I don't know
- 1:00:40Speaker 2: how you are going to cry before God here, but
- 1:00:43Speaker 2: please remember your ministry, remember your children, remember those connected
- 1:00:47Speaker 2: to your grace.
- 1:00:48Speaker 3: In the next two minutes, just play something for us.
