- 1:04Cyber Lemanshanakata Praga Barato separate Rateka Palako
- 1:10separate The Belako Theatre. In Jesus mighty name we worship.
- 1:23In Jesus mighty name we worship. The Bible says now the Lord is
- 1:30that spirit, He's not the only spirit, but He is that spirit,
- 1:38that spirit that brings translations in, the spirit that
- 1:43lifts people. You see, without the presence
- 1:47factor, there is no church. It is beyond the paraphernalia.
- 1:53It is beyond the activities. What brings power to the things
- 2:00that we do is the presence factor.
- 2:04You can fake power, but you cannot fake presence.
- 2:15For your name is Hobly. Hobly.
- 2:22Lord, for your name is Hobly. You are holy one more time, let
- 2:56it be from the depth of your. Spirit.
- 3:15Spirit of the living God, we pray that you will breathe upon
- 3:20us tonight. We're.
- 3:22Gathered to be fanned to flames yet again.
- 3:28We're gathered to receive insight and illumination.
- 3:32And we pray that you will help us.
- 3:35The Bible says you are our helper, helping our infirmities,
- 3:40our limitations. We submit ourselves to your
- 3:43wisdom and we pray that you will do mighty things in our midst.
- 3:48For in Jesus name we pray, Amen and Amen.
- 3:54God bless you. Please be seated if you can.
- 3:58And I want you to be very, very sensitive.
- 4:00This is the House of God. This is not a viewing center.
- 4:05This is not a cinema hall. This is not a place for acting
- 4:10some movie. God has decided to invest His
- 4:14presence in this house. He has decided to Tabernacle
- 4:18among us, and we're honored to host His presence.
- 4:22The meaning of that is that you will never return the way you
- 4:25came in the name of Jesus. Christ.
- 4:29That His light and His grace will be so rested upon you that
- 4:33when you step out of this place, it will be clear tonight that
- 4:37you met the King of Kings. In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
- 4:44So we'll go straight to the business of tonight.
- 4:48But like I promised us last week, let me just make the
- 4:52announcement for the Sound of Revival UK.
- 4:56And then once we're done, we'll just pray on the bills and then
- 5:01we'll get to discuss that which God has in store for us tonight
- 5:09in the name of Jesus. There's someone who came here
- 5:12with a very strong pain by the side, look like a strong
- 5:18abdominal pain. The power of God is touching
- 5:22that person. Right now.
- 5:24Right now. That pain is a demonic thing.
- 5:29It's not a medical condition. It's a satanic oppression in the
- 5:34name of Jesus. It leaves this moment.
- 5:38By the power of the Holy Spirit, by the power of the Holy Spirit,
- 5:44that someone you've been having difficulty moving your neck.
- 5:47You are able to move your neck, but it looks like there's
- 5:50something. There is there's there's
- 5:53something that creates excruciating pain.
- 5:55You will feel like fire as I'm speaking right now, and that
- 5:59demonic thing will leave you once and for all in the name of
- 6:04Jesus, the Son of the living God.
- 6:11We believe in Jesus. We believe in his power.
- 6:16When we read this Bible, it is for us beyond a history book.
- 6:22It is beyond a storybook. This is a capture of not what
- 6:27God has done, but what He is able to do when men believe him.
- 6:34Hallelujah. Perhaps this is a message
- 6:36already for someone. Don't play games with God.
- 6:39Mean business with God. And it will.
- 6:42Cost your life to be a sign. Any wonder?
- 6:46Hallelujah, praise the name of the Lord.
- 6:51I'm hearing restoration. This is what I'm.
- 6:55Hearing I'm hearing restoration, restoration, you see these words
- 7:03are not just empty words. There is a power behind them and
- 7:08it is that power that brings them to pass restoration.
- 7:12I'm saying it again by the spirit of the living God, that
- 7:16everything that has left your life.
- 7:19That is inconsistent with God's will.
- 7:22In the name that is above all names, I prophecy upon your
- 7:26life. This day and this moment, may my
- 7:29God restore. This day and this moment may my
- 7:35God restore. And every power that tries to
- 7:40fight this prophecy, may the hand of God clear it out of the
- 7:44way. You will marvel and wonder at
- 7:53what happens to you at the instance of this world.
- 7:57I'm not just speaking to you. I'm placing something by this
- 8:01world on your head. I say it one last.
- 8:05Time restore, restore, restore, restore.
- 8:10Shabba raka tosiata. Restore.
- 8:13In every area you have lost, in every area there has been
- 8:18depletion, let there be restoration by the Spirit of
- 8:22grace. Please be seated.
- 8:34In the name of. Jesus, be seated, just help
- 8:37those under the anointing. No power in existence.
- 8:46Listen to me, most people have not taken time to know God.
- 8:50Lay your hands on your head and declare that no force of
- 8:54darkness will interrupt God's program in your life.
- 8:58In this season, go ahead and begin to pray.
- 9:01No power in existence. Pehla koshalega barako siyata.
- 9:07We serve a living God. No power in existence.
- 9:11Not by ancestry, not by enchantment, not by demonic
- 9:16patterns. No power in existence sustains
- 9:21what it takes to abort the program of God in your life, my
- 9:27life, our lives. Pray turn it to power in one
- 9:31minute. Pratila shalaka baraka tabarat.
- 9:42No power skate parika pariska Bella catan.
- 9:49No power manifesting as sickness, no power manifesting
- 9:55as failure, manifesting as patterns.
- 9:59We come against it in the name of Jesus, the Christ of God.
- 10:18In Jesus mighty name we pray. He said, who seen that this man
- 10:48was born blind? Was it him or his father?
- 10:53And Jesus said neither, but that the glory of the Lord will be
- 10:56revealed. Let me speak over someone.
- 10:59You will not suffer the sins of your parents.
- 11:04You will. You are delivered from the
- 11:07consequences of the sins of those who went ahead of you.
- 11:12I say it again, you will not be a victim of the consequences
- 11:18from the sins of those who have gone ahead of you or those who
- 11:22are before you. Hallelujah, you believe what you
- 11:31are receiving. Please be seated when you come
- 11:40to the House of God, be full of fate. 1 moment of encounter in
- 11:48his presence can literally rewrite your destiny.
- 11:52Hallelujah. The Bible says in Hebrews
- 11:55Chapter 11 and verse 6 it says, For without faith it is
- 11:58impossible to please Him, the him being God.
- 12:01For he that cometh to God must believe, number one, that He
- 12:07exists, and then #2 that he's the rewarder, or a rewarder of
- 12:13them that diligently seek Him. May the Lord do us good tonight
- 12:19in the name of Jesus. All right, so let's have the
- 12:24bill for the sound of revival. United Kingdom.
- 12:28We're going to pray Hallelujah, praise the name of the Lord.
- 12:35And so this is to our global family and then our family in
- 12:39the United Kingdom and indeed all over Europe.
- 12:42By the grace of God, the sound of revival for this year will be
- 12:48in Leeds. We're using the first Direct
- 12:51Arena in Leeds. It will be on the 19th and the
- 12:5720th of September. So it's still a long time.
- 13:01But then so that we're able to manage and improve on that,
- 13:09which we did last year, we're opening up the doors so that
- 13:14people can be aware and then they can plan.
- 13:16So this will be long after we're done with US and done with
- 13:21Canada. Do not forget again that US is
- 13:2318th and 19th. Canada is 24th and 25th.
- 13:28Sound of revival. Please stretch your hands.
- 13:31And I want us to speak that in the name of Jesus Christ, we're
- 13:35taking this fire of the Spirit across the globe.
- 13:41To the nations and the continent of the earth, stretch your
- 13:46hands. We're declaring by the Spirit of
- 13:49the living God there will be a reign of salvation,
- 13:53reawakenings, mighty, mighty manifestations of the Spirit.
- 14:00Salimara subrahaske mala kusiata, the Angel that
- 14:05signifies revelations. We release them by the power of
- 14:09the Holy Spirit to take these glad tidings across Europe,
- 14:15across the nations that multitudes will come to
- 14:19encounter the God of the Bible. Some of them your loved ones,
- 14:25some of them those who have gone before you, some of them
- 14:31distant. Relatives in the mighty name of
- 14:38Jesus. And so to our Koinonia UK
- 14:41family, please go ahead and take the glad tidings all across
- 14:48Europe. This is what the Lord is doing.
- 14:50We're using First Direct arena. It's a beautiful arena and we
- 14:53trust God to have awesome sessions in His presence.
- 14:59In the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
- 15:03Are we ready for registration for UK?
- 15:08Is the link there? OK?
- 15:08So fine. So for all of you in UK and
- 15:14around Europe, that's your link. Please go ahead and register.
- 15:19Do you know what? What?
- 15:20Trust in God for grace. I'm told that they've almost
- 15:24exhausted the links even for US, and we're still wondering how
- 15:28we're going to walk around it because this is just February.
- 15:32Within 48 hours, it was almost. We're praying that we don't have
- 15:38to still get two different auditoriums to use, but we have
- 15:45to make do with whatever it is that God is granting grace.
- 15:47It just tells you that people are hungry.
- 15:50They are desperately looking for the living God.
- 15:54People are tired of games, tired of nonsense.
- 15:57They're looking for God. God whose power can be
- 16:01demonstrated here. And now?
- 16:04Hallelujah. So for all who are in UK, please
- 16:07follow the link, scan the barcode and use it for your
- 16:14registration. Please make that as fast as you
- 16:17can for you and for your loved ones.
- 16:20This will help us plan and we'll do our best to manage as many
- 16:26people who will be coming all across Europe.
- 16:30And let's trust God that the venue we have will be able to
- 16:33contend the people, if otherwise God will grant us wisdom on what
- 16:37to do. But please take advantage of it
- 16:39now so the doors are open. You can begin to register is
- 16:43free, but you need to register so that it helps us to manage
- 16:47the people. And as always, let's display the
- 16:50account details so that would allow those.
- 16:53Who? Want to give so for all of you
- 16:56are Koinonia UK family that is our account details you have
- 17:00there. Please take advantage of it for
- 17:02all your givings, all your givings, take advantage of it.
- 17:08Give, give generously. Give because you love Jesus and
- 17:12give us part of your Kingdom responsibility, our orientation
- 17:17in this house and in this ministry.
- 17:20And God is bringing the body of Christ.
- 17:21So that state of maturity is that this matter of money should
- 17:26not be about manipulation. Or telling lies.
- 17:30There is nothing to hide. The program of God always runs
- 17:34on the shoulders of yielded vessels.
- 17:37Is as simple as that. Are we together?
- 17:40And that giving in the Kingdom is motivated #1 by our love for
- 17:44Jesus and our desire to be part of His program.
- 17:49That if because of my 1 LB, one dollar, one naira, or one
- 17:54whatever currency someone comes to know Jesus, someone is saved,
- 17:59someone is healed, that is also credited unto me in heaven.
- 18:03And part of the responsible Christianity we're building is
- 18:07for every believer to know that you have a role, even a
- 18:12financial role, to play in God's program, void of coercion, void
- 18:17of manipulation, giving willingly, giving joyfully
- 18:21motivated by love. That when we stand on that
- 18:25crusade ground and you see the multitudes coming to Jesus, the
- 18:28multitudes getting healed, you smile knowing that your seed
- 18:33played a role to make that happen.
- 18:35Are we together? And the Bible tells us that the
- 18:39ones who give will always be rewarded, even in this life.
- 18:45So you can give for all other expressions, we've made the
- 18:48account details available. I understand that a few people
- 18:53have had issues. We're trying to work on one or
- 18:56two issues with account in US. So if for any reason you've
- 19:01tried to give and there's been a limitation, please just be
- 19:05patient, especially for those outside the US who are giving.
- 19:08I think those within there may not have any problem,
- 19:11particularly for US, we've had to add a few more accounts so
- 19:17that we're able to meet up not only the volume but to give
- 19:21people diversity of expression. So more on that will come in
- 19:26subsequent services. But just for you to know that
- 19:29God is doing great and mighty things and it is an honor for us
- 19:33to be part of what He's doing. That is first Direct Arena.
- 19:37That's what we'll be using for the conference.
- 19:42In. The United Kingdom, we thank God
- 19:46for His grace and we trust that God will be glorified in Jesus
- 19:50name, Amen and Amen. I think we're ready for the
- 19:54business of the night. Hallelujah.
- 20:03Let me start by prophesying over your life.
- 20:05I think when I was praying the Lord gave me a scripture.
- 20:08Deuteronomy chapter 87 to 9:00. Have to obey God and speak it
- 20:13over your life. Then I'll charge our hearts
- 20:16tonight. Just allow me read and then I
- 20:18speak it over your life, for the Lord thy God bringeth.
- 20:22Thee. This is the Scripture that came
- 20:24to me while I was praying into a good land.
- 20:27A land of brooks, of water, of fountains, and depths that
- 20:32spring out of valleys and hills. A land of wheat and Bali, and
- 20:39vines, and fig trees and pomegranates.
- 20:42A land of oil, of olive and honey.
- 20:46Verse 9A. Land wherein thou shall eat
- 20:49bread without scarceness. Thou shall not lack anything in
- 20:54it. A land whose stones are iron,
- 20:59and out of whose heels thou mayest dig a brass.
- 21:03This is provision even in the times of scarcity.
- 21:06Even though I'm not teaching on finances tonight, but I have to
- 21:09obey the Lord in the name of Jesus by the power of prophecy.
- 21:13I'm praying for you that beginning from this week, may
- 21:16you step into a strange level of financial testimonies.
- 21:25We call upon God, who has graciously shown us mercy, that
- 21:29in the name of Jesus Christ, everyone connected to this grace
- 21:33I am prophesying to you by the Spirit of the living God.
- 21:37Not, not in two weeks, not in three weeks, not next year, not
- 21:41in much. You have the faith to believe.
- 21:43I speak over your life in the name of Jesus.
- 21:47Step into a realm of extraordinary abundance.
- 21:54Abundance by the wisdom of God. Abundance by the favor of God.
- 22:01Abundance by strategic relationships.
- 22:06Abundance by inheritance in the name of Jesus.
- 22:15So don't be surprised if someone who has not called you in a long
- 22:19time calls you and says, God just put it in my heart that for
- 22:23the remaining part of this year, every month, not once, not twice
- 22:28every month, that I should be blessing you and blessing your
- 22:31children. You have the faith to believe
- 22:33it. I speak it over your life.
- 22:38Hallelujah. I remember very humorously I was
- 22:44speaking here, I think it was last year or so, I used to have
- 22:49a dog. The dog is now dead and I just
- 22:52mentioned the dog and someone called from US and said I'll be
- 22:55taking care of the dog every week and every month I'll be
- 22:59sending money from UK and I said what is all this?
- 23:05For a dog. What is it eating?
- 23:11Let's your power, Holy Ghost power, rest on me.
- 23:18Rest on me, let's your power, Holy Ghost power.
- 23:23Rest on me. Rest on me.
- 23:27Rest on me. Rest on me.
- 23:35Rest on me. Holy Ghost power, rest on me.
- 23:47I've taught you. That it is what is upon you that
- 23:51controls everything around you. Believe me when I tell you that
- 23:56it is what comes on your head that controls what is around
- 24:01you. It says thou anointest my head
- 24:04with oil, but I see the effect of what is on my head on my cop.
- 24:09He doesn't anoint the cop. Thou anointest my head with oil
- 24:14and my cop run it over in the name of Jesus.
- 24:20Please be seated. God is doing something across
- 24:27the globe that is phenomenal. God is doing something in Africa
- 24:33that is phenomenal. As a man of God, I was sharing
- 24:37with a few people back in Lagos. I'm seeing the formation of a
- 24:41cloud that once happened before we came to the scene.
- 24:46There is a cloud that is gathering again.
- 24:49God is moving in a way, perhaps not exact, but a way similar to
- 24:56what He has done before, maybe before some of us were born.
- 25:00But He's coming again. And we are seeing the formation
- 25:04of that prophetic cloud, gathering from region to region,
- 25:09gathering from nation to nation, gathering from continent to
- 25:14continent, perhaps. Could it be the formation for
- 25:19the last move of God before Jesus returns?
- 25:24I doubt that there will be many, many other moves.
- 25:28The signs are already showing that we are wrapping up, it is
- 25:32true. But we are seeing a heavy cloud
- 25:36that is forming, and this cloud is going to pour out rain.
- 25:42That rain is not going to be little.
- 25:45That rain will last. Hallelujah.
- 25:49It is true. This is not a cloud that is just
- 25:52forming. Just no, no, no, no.
- 25:54This one is beyond the fist of a man's hand.
- 25:58It is a very mighty thick cloud. The Spirit of God himself is
- 26:03gathering. That cloud is a mighty rain of
- 26:06revival, is a mighty rain of outpouring, is a mighty reign of
- 26:12awakenings. It is the reenacting of Ezekiel
- 26:1537 again, and I have seen this many times in my visions.
- 26:24In 2005, the Lord opened my eyes and I saw the continent of Asia.
- 26:34I saw fire just like a single Candlestick, and I saw many
- 26:40Chinese young people, and it came upon one, just one person,
- 26:45and it began to spread, began to spread, began to spread.
- 26:51You see, I have seen the same formation in Africa.
- 26:55Because this is the continent that will present Christ to the
- 26:58world before Jesus returns. It is in prophecy.
- 27:03It is true. And if you are here gather
- 27:05tonight, let me tell you it is because there is something
- 27:09within your spirit tonight. Deep is about to call unto deep.
- 27:14Deep is about to call unto deep. Deep is about to call unto deep.
- 27:20Doesn't matter whether you're a male or female.
- 27:23Doesn't matter whether you are young or old.
- 27:27It is a prophetic formation over something mighty that God is
- 27:33doing. And we're glad that we'll be
- 27:35witnessing this in our lifetime, the fathers in the next 10 to 20
- 27:43years. The truth is that for the
- 27:46fathers, the cloud is already shifting.
- 27:49They are already seeing the signs.
- 27:52There are Chariots ready to come and pick them.
- 27:56It will not be immediate, but it will not be very long.
- 27:59There is a baton in the spirit, a transference genuine.
- 28:06Authentic graces and mantels over the next decade.
- 28:12Hear me, I'm saying this by the Spirit of Prophecy that over the
- 28:16next 10 years. There will be a prophetic
- 28:19transition within the body of Christ.
- 28:23There are many others have gone still within the decade, Men
- 28:29like Reinhard Bonke, men like TL Osborne, Pat.
- 28:35Robinson. Left this year, Morris, Cerullo,
- 28:39they have gone. Our fathers in Nigeria are still
- 28:44here because of their covenant of long life.
- 28:47They will still be here for a while, but it will not be for
- 28:50too long. They know it, we know it.
- 28:55So there is a transition in the Spirit.
- 29:00And Elijah told Elijah, if you can see me, if you can see me,
- 29:06if you will not lose focus and see me.
- 29:11But you see it is not only a handing over of mantels that
- 29:18will be happening. There are other mantels that
- 29:22could not be handed over because there were no faithful.
- 29:25Vessels to carry it. And when the carriers were old,
- 29:30all those who were in front of them were in the order of Gehazi
- 29:34and Judas, so they could not hand over the mantle.
- 29:37And many of them died with the mantels.
- 29:40But you see, mantels don't go back to heaven.
- 29:42No, that means they are somewhere being preserved by the
- 29:46spirit of grace, waiting for vessels that will become feet
- 29:52and dexterous. Listen, you will see mantels
- 29:58that we have not seen in the body of Christ maybe for the
- 30:00last 100 years. I pray we have the grace to
- 30:06receive them. You will see people walking
- 30:09mantels that the last person who walked in, it was written in the
- 30:13Bible. And you are wondering where did
- 30:15this grace come from? This blend of spiritual
- 30:18formation? Where is this one coming from?
- 30:23I have seen this and it will happen.
- 30:40Oh. Like you to pray one prayer
- 31:58whilst you are seated. Father, I am available.
- 32:02Available to be the Esta of my generation.
- 32:09Available to be the Gideon. Available to be the roof that
- 32:17Naomi. Available to be the Elijah.
- 32:22Shaneka salaka bran taska baraka baraka baraka tosiata.
- 32:28Go ahead and pray, you're not wasting your time.
- 32:31This is a prophetic and an Apostolic ministry.
- 32:40Sebelanda ka salaka baraka TA frascate krateka barakosiata.
- 32:46Respond to the staring in the Spirit.
- 32:49Respond to the staring in the spirit.
- 33:31Please don't be distracted. We are becoming a people,
- 33:35spiritual. The people yielded vessels that
- 33:40He can use, mighty vessels that He can.
- 33:44Use. Take a few minutes.
- 33:50I just sense it's staring in the spirit.
- 33:52Don't waste it. Take a few minutes to pray in
- 33:57the Spirit. Rasha Branzada, Melandosco
- 34:04Baratus, Seattle We see the cloud, we see the cloud, we see
- 34:10the cloud. We see the cloud and mighty
- 34:14formation in the Spirit. This is Colonia, the spirit man
- 35:05is getting enlarged. In Jesus name we pray.
- 35:18In Jesus name we pray be seated if you can.
- 35:34And so all across the globe there is a mighty formation.
- 35:41If you are not aware of this, it is because you are not
- 35:45spiritual. The Bible says these days will
- 35:49be like the days of Noah. In the days of Noah, there were
- 35:53two groups of people. There were those who understood
- 35:57what God was doing, and they were participating in the
- 36:00building of the ark, and they were the mockers and the
- 36:03naysayers, completely disinterested.
- 36:07But the Bible says it was God himself that came to shut the
- 36:11door, and when he shot the door, the flood came and everyone who
- 36:16was not in that act of safety died.
- 36:21Everyone. Hallelujah.
- 36:28One of the graces that the Apostolic ministry enjoys is
- 36:37access to the dealings of God per season, per dispensation, so
- 36:46that you understand what God is doing.
- 36:50And then you can interpret what God is doing and help His people
- 36:55prepare so that when he comes in that regard, there are vessels
- 37:01that are prepared to be mightily used by Him.
- 37:04I have a brief charge tonight, and the title of my message is
- 37:09this is the generation. This is the generation.
- 37:17I'm teaching tonight on the making of mighty men.
- 37:22I want to show you from Scripture how men become mighty
- 37:26in the spirit. I want to show you how people
- 37:30become of weight and stature in the spirit.
- 37:35And if you pay attention to what you are learning tonight, you
- 37:38will become such a mighty vessel.
- 37:42This is the generation Shamala Kusia Brandaka.
- 37:56I wonder. I wonder how we're going to go

- 38:59Help us Spirit of the Living Law.
- 39:04OK, please be seated. There are three emphasis of the
- 39:11Spirit. Let me start from there.
- 39:14There are three prophetic emphasis of the Spirit in these
- 39:18last days I've taught you, but let me recap.
- 39:21Let me start from there. Number one is the world
- 39:24evangelization. This is the first emphasis of
- 39:28the Spirit in this prophetic season that we are in world
- 39:35evangelization. The Spirit of God, like never
- 39:38before, is raising men, and He's moving across the length and the
- 39:43breath of this earth for that one final wave that will bring
- 39:49in the harvest. Are we together in order of
- 39:53divine priority? God's emphasis right now is a
- 40:00greater determination by the Spirit to find laborers that can
- 40:05make world evangelization a success #2.
- 40:13What is the second emphasis of the Spirit in this season?
- 40:16The maturity of the Saints. The maturity of the Saints in
- 40:22addition to world evangelization.
- 40:26The second emphasis of the Spirit in this season is that
- 40:31the Saints come into an experience of maturity, holistic
- 40:37maturity #3 What is the third emphasis of the Spirit over the
- 40:44nations in this season? Territorial transformation.
- 40:49That territories will experience the light, the power, the wisdom
- 40:55of God in a way that the cosmos will have to admit that this is
- 41:03the workings of God. And when it has to do with
- 41:06territorial transformation is beyond just healings and
- 41:10supernatural manifestations, witty inventions, creativity,
- 41:15superior ideas by the Spirit that will be revealed through
- 41:20the Saints. It's important for you to know
- 41:23this. This is what God is doing in
- 41:27this season, world evangelization, what we are
- 41:32doing in the Crusades and the conferences across is in honor
- 41:37to this call and this mandate that he desires that all people
- 41:42be saved and then to come on to the knowledge of the truth,
- 41:47world evangelization, the maturity of the Saints,
- 41:51territorial transformation. Now I want to listen very
- 41:57carefully the major challenge in my opinion, and I submit to you
- 42:06that particularly in Africa, there's been a growing
- 42:11dissatisfaction as far as nominal Christianity is
- 42:15concerned. People are beginning to be
- 42:18tired, tired of the ritual of religion, tired of church as
- 42:23usual. Are we together, tired of
- 42:25communications, of spiritual things without the power and the
- 42:29authority component. People across the horizon,
- 42:33Christians and non Christians alike, are beginning to get fed
- 42:39up. Never has it been in history
- 42:42where God is collapsing the walls of denominationalism.
- 42:47People are opening their hearts right now.
- 42:49People who ordinarily would not open their hearts to certain
- 42:53dimensions of the Kingdom are now being prepared to at least
- 42:58give these thoughts a chance. Perhaps I can find out about
- 43:03this. I have closed my heart to it,
- 43:05but let me be open perhaps to the ministry of the Holy Spirit,
- 43:10perhaps to discipleship, perhaps to transformation.
- 43:13So there is a lot that is happening.
- 43:15Even unbelievers, men in the order of the utopian Enoch are
- 43:20beginning to be interested in this God thing, this Kingdom
- 43:25thing. It is amazing how many non
- 43:27Christians are connected right now in this nation and across
- 43:31the globe following this. They are, they are not
- 43:35Christians, but they are interested, they are learning,
- 43:39they want to know. They are very open hearted.
- 43:43People are no longer afraid and closing themselves to say this
- 43:47is what I know, this is what I believe.
- 43:49The same way many Christians are opening up their hearts too.
- 43:52They are saying, you know what, I'm tired of closing myself in
- 43:56fear, lying to myself. Let me open myself to occultism
- 44:01also. Let me open myself to some
- 44:03Eastern African religion also. So we live in a world and we
- 44:08live in a prophetic season where there is a greater sense of
- 44:12openness. And everybody, I tell you, they
- 44:16are looking for God, they are looking for his power, they are
- 44:20looking for meaning to their lives.
- 44:22Are we together now? People are getting tired of
- 44:25lying, getting tired of faking their living, acting as if
- 44:28things are working, whereas they have not truly experienced God.
- 44:33Like the Bible said, men can experience him.
- 44:35So there's been a growing hunger, there's been a growing
- 44:39dissatisfaction even among men and women of God, particularly
- 44:43Nigeria and Africa. There's been a sudden
- 44:46reawakening. People are getting really
- 44:48serious with God to say, listen, if I do not know this, let me
- 44:52open up my heart to find out what else can there be in God.
- 44:56And this is a very good news for us all.
- 44:59However, I found out that the major reason why it looks like
- 45:08the Holy Spirit is limited in terms of manifesting the reality
- 45:13of the God life, the reality of the supernatural.
- 45:17Power. Of God here on earth.
- 45:20The major reason has been the kind and the quality of vessels
- 45:25that are available. I want you to please listen the
- 45:29major limitation I can tell you to the operation of the Spirit
- 45:35on earth today. Beyond the protocol of prophecy
- 45:40is that the kind and the vessels that are available are not
- 45:46aligned to the degree that can host that much that God wants to
- 45:51do. Now, in truth, there are
- 45:53vessels. But the Bible tells us very
- 45:56clearly, it says nevertheless the foundation of the Lord,
- 45:58standard shore having this seal, that the Lord knoweth them that
- 46:03are his, and let every man that named the name of Christ depart
- 46:06from iniquity. Then it says in a great house,
- 46:08listen carefully. It says there are all kinds of
- 46:11vessels. Some vessels.
- 46:14Are gold. Some vessels are silver, some
- 46:18vessels are wood, some vessels are earth or clay.
- 46:24And he told us immediately that some of these vessels already
- 46:29they are on to honor, and some vessels are not on to honor,
- 46:34they are so on to dishonor. Verse 21 says if a man will
- 46:37purge himself. So you see that God wants to use
- 46:43the vessels, the master wants to use the vessels on to good
- 46:48works. But the.
- 46:49Kind and the quality of vessels that we have.
- 46:54That are sincerely available. You see that now they may not be
- 47:00able to birth the purposes of God to Gods satisfaction, and it
- 47:06seems to me as though in every generation.
- 47:10God seems to bring a proposition to people within that
- 47:13generation. I want to move.
- 47:16I desire for this generation, or any generation for that matter,
- 47:21to see my power, to see my glory.
- 47:23I desire for this generation to see Scripture fulfilled
- 47:28sometimes. In a whole.
- 47:30Generation. He may find just a handful of
- 47:33people and he will have to make do with what is available.
- 47:38And the danger is that the moment there are few people,
- 47:43that move of God will not last because the few people are also
- 47:47human and the burden on them, either the burden of fatigue or
- 47:51the burden of temptations or the the, you know, just the humanity
- 47:56of men or attacks from the Kingdom of darkness, and then
- 48:00they are caught out of the way and God's program is lost.
- 48:04Now God is coming to our generation again like he has
- 48:08done fairly so to every generation and the Clarion call
- 48:14is not just Maranatha God come, he wants to come, but the
- 48:19quality of the vessels and here's what the Lord revealed to
- 48:23me there are essentially. Two defects with the vessels
- 48:34that God desires to use. 2 defects #1 is on one side we
- 48:44have vessels that are completely disinterested in spirituality,
- 48:51spiritual growth. And Kingdom come.
- 48:54So this is the first problem that we have to deal with.
- 48:58Are we following now? So we have vessels.
- 49:01They do not even know their vessels.
- 49:05Either they are not born again or they are born again but
- 49:09completely disinterested in God's program.
- 49:13When we talk about this, there are some of you watching people
- 49:16shout under the anointing, watching people worship,
- 49:19watching people roll, and you're wondering with shock, what is
- 49:22this madness? There is a complete disinterest
- 49:27about anything, God, anything. Kingdom.
- 49:30For others, it's even degenerated to share
- 49:33godlessness. They do not want to hear
- 49:37anything that has the name of Jesus on it.
- 49:44This is the first problem that God wants to solve.
- 49:47There are many people today who are not yet saved but are
- 49:52enlisted as part of the prophetic army in this move of
- 49:56God. That is a very serious thing.
- 49:58Did you know that when Jesus was talking to the 12 disciples and
- 50:03telling them they would still learn other things, the man who
- 50:06he would use was not saved? Paul as at the time Jesus was
- 50:11telling the disciples. I have many other things to tell
- 50:15you. The man that the Spirit of God
- 50:17will use who would play an active role in writing to thirds
- 50:22of the New Testament was not even saved a Pharisee, but hated
- 50:27everything Jesus to the point that when they were stoning
- 50:32Stephen, the Bible tells us that as they were stoning Stephen, he
- 50:37was under the supervision of Paul a Saul.
- 50:42They kept their garments near him while they were destroying
- 50:45all of these people, and he saw it with joy and gladness.
- 50:52But one day the Bible tells us that on his way to Damascus, Can
- 50:56you imagine that level of zeal he obtained?
- 50:58Letter from the High Priest to go and capture the people who
- 51:01are advocating this Jesus and a light.
- 51:05Came the Bible tells us he fell down and he heard a voice saying
- 51:09Saul Saul why persecutors thou me and he says who are you Lord
- 51:15verse 5. He says I am Jesus whom thou
- 51:19persecutors. That was his conversion.
- 51:23Do you know how many other souls I'm beer palace right now?
- 51:28Do you know how many souls right now are in homes?
- 51:32Do you know how many souls right now are in some other places?
- 51:36They are not even aware that there is such a heavy mandate
- 51:39upon their lives. Imagine the world.
- 51:43Without a Reinhard Bonke, just remove 10 people.
- 51:46Let me give you 10 names, remove them from the history of the
- 51:49program of God and tell me what we have left.
- 51:52Remove Reinhard Bonke. Remove TL Osborne, Remove
- 51:56Maurice Cerullo. Are we together?
- 51:59Remove Billy Graham, remove say, Pat Robertson, Just remove this
- 52:0410 people alone. What do we have left?
- 52:07There is nobody who is walking in the cotton edge of God's
- 52:11program today that was not a product of that generation in
- 52:16Nigeria today. Remove all of these prophetic
- 52:19voices. It was TL Osborne who mentored
- 52:22Archbishop Benson Hosa. That thing you see came from TL
- 52:26Osborne. You see history on the reported
- 52:31so many things and unfortunately in Africa we don't preserve
- 52:34history. So there is so much to know to
- 52:37strengthen our work that we do not know.
- 52:39The average young man that God is using now is not connected to
- 52:43history. We hardly know what happened
- 52:46before our arrival. So we cannot know what mistakes
- 52:49to cross, what makes sense to jump.
- 52:51And because our generation is largely an arrogant generation,
- 52:55we are repeating the same mistakes.
- 52:57Again, the things that are written at four times the Bible
- 53:03says they are for our learning, so that we, through patience and
- 53:07the comfort of Scripture, might find hope.
- 53:12Are we together? So the first problem that the
- 53:15Spirit of God wants to correct is the disinterest, complete
- 53:20disinterest in the things of God.
- 53:22Let me tell you the truth, you would think being a man of God,
- 53:25my life has just been full of meeting zealous people who love
- 53:28the Lord. I have seen people with such
- 53:31almost annoying disinterest for the things of God and they have
- 53:35the right to reject God. It is their right.
- 53:39God will respect it, except that in their disinterest, God will
- 53:43have to take their bishopric and give another person.
- 53:46Can I tell you there are many people you see today?
- 53:50The burden on them is because their assignment they are
- 53:54carrying out was not the original script.
- 53:57Other people who were supposed to have risen have refused to
- 54:00rise, and so God. Has to make do with the
- 54:03available vessels and you will see men start as maybe
- 54:06evangelist and keep evolving into other things because they
- 54:10have to midwife many assignments and prophetic programs until the
- 54:15people assigned are trained enough to take it.
- 54:22The danger to that kind of. Living is that they are the
- 54:25people who now become what you call the Joshua Selmans or the
- 54:29celebrities. The danger is that because you
- 54:32are carrying many peoples assignments on your head your
- 54:35own plus the assignment of a careless person who has refused
- 54:39to know God and rise any attack that comes on you can destroy
- 54:44the body. The army was never supposed to
- 54:46be few in any battle. Number is an advantage.
- 54:54Are you getting what I'm saying now?
- 54:56And so we have people, and some of these people I'm talking
- 54:59about are here listening to me, following by television,
- 55:02following across the globe. The Spirit of God is calling
- 55:05you. We are not just safe to sit down
- 55:09and be disinterested in the program of God.
- 55:11No, no, God wants to move in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi,
- 55:20South Africa. Europe, America, everywhere,
- 55:24including Asia, the ends of the earth.
- 55:29But the vessels that he has to make do with number one are
- 55:33completely godless or disinterested.
- 55:37There are people who will stand from a distance and watch a
- 55:41crusade happening and while the man is shouting in the name of
- 55:45Jesus, is it time for you to be saved?
- 55:47They will be laughing and perhaps maybe drinking and
- 55:50telling others go for and they are completely disinterested.
- 55:54Yet you see the thing with God is that He has put eternity in
- 55:59the heart of every man. After all of those misbehavior,
- 56:03you see them still go back and said there is something in my
- 56:06heart I can't explain why I can't leave God.
- 56:10They will vow that they will never come to church.
- 56:12Later you still find them roaming around crusade grounds.
- 56:15They don't even know what is bringing them there.
- 56:17I tell you it's because they are part of that army.
- 56:19I'm saying this so that when you see such people you begin to
- 56:22pray and intercede. The scribes and the Pharisees
- 56:28would never open up their heart to receive of what Jesus was
- 56:32saying. Yet you will always find them in
- 56:34His crusade. If you don't like Him, go away.
- 56:38But what was still keeping them there?
- 56:41Because there is a cry. Some of you vowed that you will
- 56:44never come for Koinonia. You are here now.
- 56:47You vowed that you will never come to church.
- 56:48In fact, you are here now. You insulted pastors and said
- 56:51everybody is a cook. You are still here.
- 56:53You know why? Because there is destiny and
- 56:56prophecy upon you and let me tell you, provided you are
- 56:59alive, except you use your mouth to say, Lord, I reject you
- 57:04consciously and willingly leave me alone.
- 57:06I'm exercising my will. He will respect you.
- 57:10And for some, do you know, maybe based on God's prophetic
- 57:14blueprint, you are supposed to start your Kingdom assignment
- 57:18actively maybe at 20-30. You are now 404550 and God is
- 57:23saying I'm still waiting. I know time is gone, but we'll
- 57:26find out what we can do with you.
- 57:28Do you believe what you're hearing?
- 57:35Disinterest, especially for young.
- 57:38People, because the glory of young people is their strength.
- 57:42And there are many young people who, I'm not talking of blind
- 57:45fanatism, I'll talk about that. An altar call is made.
- 57:49They are not interested. The Spirit of God is speaking to
- 57:52them. You would be the first person to
- 57:54get born again in your lineage. Why do you think He brought you
- 57:58to church just to watch a man? No, too small a reason is
- 58:03because he vowed to even your idol worshiper father.
- 58:08One day, your idol worshiper, grandfather or great grandfather
- 58:12had a voice. From this lineage, a prophet
- 58:15will rise. He checked who is speaking.
- 58:18It is not my idols. It was God placing a witness.
- 58:22And even if it's after 40 years, you see BA, this God is truly a
- 58:27covenant keeping God, even if it's after 40 years, he will
- 58:33come back again. I said something to this family.
- 58:37Let me come and find out if there is one vessel who has been
- 58:39born and the Spirit of God starts moving around and then.
- 58:44He will find out that all the men are not serious and say let
- 58:47me try the women. It doesn't matter male or
- 58:50female, I just need someone as a witness that I need to bet my.
- 58:55Purposes in this family. There are other families that
- 59:00didn't know God, but when missionaries came to that
- 59:03village, they said, you know what, there is one one bedroom
- 59:06there. I am an idol worshipper.
- 59:08I wouldn't go for your crusade, but stay in that room.
- 59:11And while the man prayed there, there was a witness in heaven.
- 59:14And God said, because this man did this, we will insist that
- 59:17one seed. From.
- 59:19His loin must serve the Lord and that's what has brought many of
- 59:22you to church right now because you are wondering how did I get
- 59:25to Abuja? Look at the effort God had to
- 59:28locate you. Maybe NYSE brought you here and
- 59:31God refused to allow you go back.
- 59:34Listen, I'm not just preaching. Listen to what I'm saying.
- 59:41God is a covenant keeping God He's looking for.
- 59:45Vessels. And for some of you, because
- 59:48Satan has the Son, the prophetic destiny that you have, he
- 59:53started scheduling men to distract you early.
- 59:56Maybe they started distracting you on campus.
- 59:59Maybe they started distracting you everywhere.
- 1:00:01And right now, the way you are having dreams of mighty things.
- 1:00:06But as it is right now, there is nothing close to Kingdom come in
- 1:00:09your life. King of Kings, Lord of Lords,
- 1:00:16faithful and true Lamb of God, we worship you.
- 1:00:25Kings of Kings, Lord of Lords, faithful and true, Lamb of God,
- 1:00:34we worship you. Let me tell you the truth, if it
- 1:00:40is the God of the Bible by. Those dreams will not stop.
- 1:00:44You will keep seeing yourself killing.
- 1:00:46Many people have not seen God when he's looking for a man.
- 1:00:49God is not ashamed though. God pursues men with the
- 1:00:53vulnerability that a young man looks to look for a wife.
- 1:00:57You know how a man is looking for a wife and he will stand in
- 1:00:59the rain. He doesn't care.
- 1:01:00That is how vulnerable God is. He will wait for you.
- 1:01:04If he's 10 years, he will wait for you.
- 1:01:12Emmanuel, all the world is calling your name.
- 1:01:19Emmanuel, when you come again. Emmanuel and the Church will see
- 1:01:31your holy face. Emmanuel, when you come again.
- 1:01:41Jeremy, I'm speaking to someone. Maybe you are in this
- 1:01:46auditorium. Maybe you are in any of the
- 1:01:49overflows outside, maybe following from every nation.
- 1:01:52I'm interpreting to you the reason why you cry without
- 1:01:55understanding the reason why you run away from God and find
- 1:01:59yourself coming back. It is not just because you are
- 1:02:01running and coming. There is a beckoning of the
- 1:02:04spirit is a language in the spirit.
- 1:02:07He's saying, remember, you are a vessel.
- 1:02:09I will not force you, but I want to use you.
- 1:02:12I will not force you, but I want to use you.
- 1:02:15You may have destroyed your life, but he can still use you.
- 1:02:19Desperately finding vessels. Can I tell you the truth?
- 1:02:25Every generation has been tried and I said this in Lagos, every
- 1:02:30generation will not fail. I can tell you this is a
- 1:02:32generation that is a generation that by mercy and by grace will
- 1:02:37get it right. So number one, please sit down.
- 1:02:46We have vessels that are completely disinterested in the
- 1:02:51things of God, even though there is prophecy upon their lives.
- 1:02:58They tremble at the Word of God, but something within them has
- 1:03:03refused to respond to their Maker.
- 1:03:06This is the reason why for every service we make alter calls, not
- 1:03:10just because we have a mandate. It is the last opportunity for
- 1:03:15someone in every service. God has been trailing that
- 1:03:19person for 10 years. Finally, God brought him to
- 1:03:23Koinonia. You see, let me tell you this,
- 1:03:26when you see the way we prepare for service in this ministry,
- 1:03:30this is also part of the motivation when we pray, when we
- 1:03:34build up our spirits, when the worship team prepared to set the
- 1:03:38atmosphere is because God knows he's finally finding one vessel.
- 1:03:43Finally. And I can tell you for someone
- 1:03:49watching me, the Spirit of God is rejoicing at what I'm saying.
- 1:03:53Heaven is rejoicing because he's saying finally now I can fulfill
- 1:03:57what I promised this lineage. I.
- 1:04:00Finally found a vessel, but whether you will say yes to God
- 1:04:03or not is now up to you. Do you know it is within your
- 1:04:07power to look God at the face and say I reject you, I reject
- 1:04:12the mantle you want to put upon my life and I'm not interested
- 1:04:16in your program. Get out of my life.
- 1:04:18He will respect you. But the consequence is that you
- 1:04:22and all those who were designed to be saved and blessed through
- 1:04:26your life, who have to perish #2 the second defect with the
- 1:04:36vessels that God. Is looking for.
- 1:04:40Or the vessels that are available is that there is a lot
- 1:04:45of zeal, listen carefully. And spirituality or a semblance
- 1:04:51of it, but without true revelation and without
- 1:04:55compliance with divine patterns, Don't worry, I'll dictate it for
- 1:04:59you. You just listen to me.
- 1:05:01So on one hand, we have vessels who are not interested in God's
- 1:05:06program at all. #2 We have vessels who have the zeal for
- 1:05:15God, but it is not according to knowledge.
- 1:05:18Their zeal has LED them into various shades of legalism, self
- 1:05:24righteousness and effort in the flesh and even in.
- 1:05:28Futility to host God and host his program.
- 1:05:33This is something that the Spirit of God wants to balance.
- 1:05:38I have seen many people, young people, young ladies.
- 1:05:42When you look at them, you see zeal.
- 1:05:45They love Jesus sincerely, but either because they were poorly
- 1:05:49mentored or either because they were bankrupt of an
- 1:05:53understanding of the patterns. To follow, you see, zealous
- 1:05:57people, if it's prayer, they will pray, if it's fasting, they
- 1:06:01will fast. If it's Bible study, they will
- 1:06:03study. But they do not know the way to
- 1:06:06the city. Hallelujah.
- 1:06:11This is even more frustrating because if you do not love God
- 1:06:16and that is why you are not being used, that's fine.
- 1:06:19But where you now seem to love God and after dissipating energy
- 1:06:24in spiritual activities, you get.
- 1:06:26Lost and frustrated many in this generation and that category.
- 1:06:31They are already following a path that looks like a path to
- 1:06:35power, but it is a path to doom. Because when it has to do with
- 1:06:40the business of the Kingdom, you are not at liberty to create
- 1:06:44your formula. There is a pattern that is
- 1:06:47ancient, older than us. All were mandated to ask for the
- 1:06:52ancient path and to follow. Are you not surprised, ladies
- 1:06:56and gentlemen, and I say this with a great burden for the body
- 1:07:00of Christ, are you not surprised that with the level of energy
- 1:07:04that is dissipated in spiritual activities in Nigeria, in
- 1:07:08Africa? On one hand, we thank God for
- 1:07:11what we have seen, but ladies and gentlemen, the kind of
- 1:07:16spiritual investment we seem to make versus the authority
- 1:07:21component doesn't. Match No.
- 1:07:25No, no, no, with all due respect, and I'm saying this
- 1:07:30with no sense of sarcasm whatsoever, I am part of the
- 1:07:34body of Christ. But the amounts of fastings that
- 1:07:39go on. In this nation and around the
- 1:07:42world, the amounts of prayer, prayer projects are we together,
- 1:07:46the amounts of consecration exercises, the amount of giving,
- 1:07:54the amount of short attendance. With all due respect, the
- 1:07:59average believer in this country and across.
- 1:08:01Africa is very, very zealous, but why is it that the power
- 1:08:07component, it looks like we're not able to do much?
- 1:08:12To strike a chord in the spirit in spite of all that is
- 1:08:15happening. Have you seen people who fasted
- 1:08:18and prayed because they were honestly trying to get causes
- 1:08:21out of their life sincerely and after the end of the seven days
- 1:08:25given dry they have the same dream?
- 1:08:28That led them to that experience and they just get up and say,
- 1:08:32well, God be praised. How about many who have given
- 1:08:37sincerely and yet they did not receive anything?
- 1:08:41How about those who love the Lord serving the Lord?
- 1:08:44Later they diagnose that there's some sickness somewhere and they
- 1:08:47kept praying. They gathered prayer warriors
- 1:08:50fasting, and the more they were fasting and praying, that
- 1:08:54person's body was degenerating in their presence.
- 1:08:57Till they died, something is wrong, something is wrong,
- 1:09:03something is wrong. The zeal is important, but if
- 1:09:07zeal is not guided. It will produce error.
- 1:09:10If you are on your way to Lagos and you follow the road to Kano
- 1:09:16and you start speeding, even with tears in your eyes, will
- 1:09:19you get to Lagos? The problem is not the vehicle.
- 1:09:23No, the problem is not your driving skill.
- 1:09:27The problem is maybe something is wrong with your GPS system
- 1:09:31and it now turned you sincerely. So many people think because
- 1:09:35they are sincere, they are right.
- 1:09:39Listen, by the privilege of God's grace, this man you see is
- 1:09:43talking to. He is a student of revivals and
- 1:09:45awakening. I have humbled myself, taking
- 1:09:48responsibility in myself. Why have we not seen the power
- 1:09:53that the fathers who have joined the cloud of witnesses
- 1:09:56commanded? I was sharing with them in Lagos
- 1:09:59a great father of faith in this nation.
- 1:10:01Do you know how he got saved? He got saved because one of the
- 1:10:06old Yoruba preachers was on a crusade ground preaching.
- 1:10:10True story. And he carried his brother who
- 1:10:14was born crippled, carried the brother and was passing the
- 1:10:19crusade ground, not attending. And the man shouted in Yoruba.
- 1:10:24He said in the name of Jesus, the son of the living God.
- 1:10:27That was how his brother dropped and stood on his two feet.
- 1:10:30Till today the brother is alive. When he saw that he said who is
- 1:10:35this? No instrument to charge the
- 1:10:37atmosphere, no clashing any symbol.
- 1:10:40This man knew God and shouted by that authority.
- 1:10:45It was Archbishop Benson in the HOSA.
- 1:10:47Who would go from street to St. and say, is there any dead man?
- 1:10:51Is there anyone there who is dead?
- 1:10:53Because he saw that they shall raise the dead, and he took it
- 1:10:57literally. I have visited many campgrounds
- 1:11:04in this nation and sometimes I ask them to share with me the
- 1:11:08histories around it. My God, this man knew God, This
- 1:11:12man knew God. One time I was in Bonnie Island
- 1:11:15and they showed me the pulpit of 1 great general of God, the
- 1:11:19pulpit that was purported to a produce fire.
- 1:11:23I saw it. It's not that they told me there
- 1:11:29is something we are doing wrong and the first thing is for us to
- 1:11:33admit that we have done well, but we need to cry on the spirit
- 1:11:37of grace. Let me tell you the first
- 1:11:39problem with this second group of people is called the danger
- 1:11:44and the deception of self-sufficiency.
- 1:11:50The group of many who are zealous, sincere people but are
- 1:11:55not able to see God. It is a trap, is a weakness in
- 1:11:59all men. That based on the abundance of
- 1:12:03Joshua Salman's fasting, the abundance of Joshua Salman's
- 1:12:07prayer, the abundance of Joshua Salman's word study, the
- 1:12:11abundance of Joshua Salman's attending conferences, God must
- 1:12:15use me. He doesn't have an option, No.
- 1:12:19The Bible warns men that our sufficiency is of Christ.
- 1:12:24This is the difference between our generation and the
- 1:12:27generation of the fathers that in spite of the activities they
- 1:12:31did, their confidence was entirely on the cross, not on
- 1:12:37self. Are we together?
- 1:12:40If I stand here right now, I expect the power of God to move.
- 1:12:44I expect people to be healed and I put together my spiritual
- 1:12:49credentials as the basis for why it was happened and I seem to
- 1:12:54manipulate God and say God you are joking, I have.
- 1:12:57Fasted. I have prayed.
- 1:12:59I have done this. You must move.
- 1:13:00No, Sir. It doesn't work that way.
- 1:13:03If you work that way. The sons of Skeva were a very
- 1:13:06consecrated people. Yet the demons, they don't
- 1:13:09respect them. I hope you know your father was
- 1:13:12a priest. Skeva was a priest.
- 1:13:16How about the disciples who were working with Jesus?
- 1:13:19And in spite of that proximity, the epileptic patient was not
- 1:13:24healed by them and they met him in frustration.
- 1:13:27I said, why couldn't this go out?
- 1:13:30Listen, we stand at risk as a generation to eventually become
- 1:13:34frustrated like it is already happening to many.
- 1:13:38The profitability of spiritual activities is that it translates
- 1:13:43to. Power.
- 1:13:44Power that we can see. When God demands that we pray,
- 1:13:51when God demands that we fast, when God demands that we give in
- 1:13:55to the study of the world, listen to me.
- 1:13:58None of those activities were supposed to replace His strength
- 1:14:02and sufficiency in our lives. I had the honor and the
- 1:14:08privilege of being at a red hot bunker crusade.
- 1:14:11I was telling one of the families that I preached for in
- 1:14:15in Lagos. It is not something they told
- 1:14:18me. By the privilege of God's grace,
- 1:14:22I had the opportunity to wheel a few people in front myself.
- 1:14:27I saw them on wheelchairs and when you looked at the size of
- 1:14:30their legs, you'll be wondering if they will ever stand.
- 1:14:33And that man came and stood there.
- 1:14:36Some of us who are masters of revelation here in Renard Bunker
- 1:14:40will frustrate you because you look like there's nothing to
- 1:14:42say. A simple parable and is laughing
- 1:14:45and just shouting, making gestures.
- 1:14:47And here you are boiling and say I want power.
- 1:14:51As soon as that man was done, watch this.
- 1:14:54He took a glass of water and then I can't remember what else
- 1:14:57happened. He was going to pray.
- 1:15:00And he just shouted in the name of Jesus with almost losing his
- 1:15:05voice. Blind eyes be healed, deaf ears.
- 1:15:10Nobody felt anything. Nobody fell down that I know
- 1:15:14that I saw. Nobody shouted Jesus like
- 1:15:17nothing. But in my presence I saw some.
- 1:15:21I think I remember at least one of the person.
- 1:15:24I wheeled. I saw him get off.
- 1:15:27I saw people throwing their crutches.
- 1:15:30Now, some of those people did not speak English, so they did
- 1:15:34not even hear what he was saying.
- 1:15:35But the anointing did not care. Come on now, Power, authentic
- 1:15:40power. They didn't hear what you were
- 1:15:44saying because there was, I mean, of course in his crusades
- 1:15:48that we interpret sometimes, but they didn't hear the English.
- 1:15:51That man shouted there, frail in himself, but full.
- 1:15:56Of the sufficiency of Christ, you think he didn't pray read
- 1:16:00his books, you think he didn't fast read his books, but they
- 1:16:04leaned entirely on the cross and this was a secret and this is
- 1:16:09what our generation is missing. There is too much marketing of
- 1:16:14personal credentials is why we are not seeing the power of God.
- 1:16:19So right now the average man of God is under so much pressure.
- 1:16:22Do you have Rhema? Do you have Revelation?
- 1:16:25How many hours have you prayed? How many hours have you fasted?
- 1:16:28I'm not saying those things are wrong, don't get me wrong, but
- 1:16:31we are delving a generation. Gradually into self-sufficiency.
- 1:16:36God does not walk like that. No, Go and read the Bible.
- 1:16:44If God were to use people who are sufficient in themselves, it
- 1:16:48will be the scribes and Pharisees that will be his
- 1:16:50disciples, not ordinary fishermen.
- 1:16:53Are we together now? Yes, and I really feel sad for
- 1:16:57my generation, in all fairness, because the pressure that is on
- 1:17:01the average young man, average young preacher, a pressure to
- 1:17:07demonstrate a semblance of spirituality, the younger
- 1:17:12generation. Coming out, even the ones that I
- 1:17:14really feel sad for. Because it's like people is it
- 1:17:18has become competition. Now how many hours do you pray?
- 1:17:21Just one hour. You are joking?
- 1:17:23You think God will use you 8 hours?
- 1:17:26How many other hours do you study the Bible?
- 1:17:28Oh, I study my own for well God is helping me.
- 1:17:31There's one devotional by by by FCS or SU.
- 1:17:36That's what you are using at this level.
- 1:17:38You are joking, you see. Now don't get me wrong, when I
- 1:17:43preach like this, you know I'm not being sarcastic.
- 1:17:46The idea is that we are on the path to disappointment, I
- 1:17:51guarantee you, by the integrity of the world.
- 1:17:55So people get disappointed today because they believe it is based
- 1:17:59on my prayer, my fasting. Joshua Salman, I have Greek and
- 1:18:03Hebrew lexicon, Matthew Henry's commentary, I have all of them.
- 1:18:07And based on that, you watch and see what God will do.
- 1:18:11And yet one Mama will be in her room and say, God, I didn't go
- 1:18:15to school, I didn't have the privilege to do anything, but I
- 1:18:19want you to use me. And God will say I will place a
- 1:18:23grace on you. Anybody you pray for, that
- 1:18:26person must rise because this revival we are calling for, in
- 1:18:33truth there is a price to pay. But instead of us to come down
- 1:18:37and let God teach us how to pay the price, we are guessing the
- 1:18:41price by ourselves and we're paying it and hoping He's seen
- 1:18:45it. It doesn't work that way.
- 1:18:48I have seen the power of God in my life.
- 1:18:51If it's the business of power, God has shown me mercy.
- 1:18:55But we count all of these things but Dong because there are still
- 1:18:58higher heights. Ladies and gentlemen, do you
- 1:19:01know the amount of sick people who are in the body of Christ?
- 1:19:06This is Jesus's own body. It is alarming.
- 1:19:13If I ask everyone now we pass a paper and say be honest, don't
- 1:19:18tell church lies, be honest, write what is really wrong with
- 1:19:21you. There are people who see another
- 1:19:23paper please, because when I finish describing what is wrong
- 1:19:27with my head alone. Hello.
- 1:19:34And in the midst of that, with that tired head, we pray for
- 1:19:38five hours and nothing happens. Come on, which Holy Spirit are
- 1:19:42we talking about? A demon spirit?
- 1:19:46Go and read. What happened to man when the
- 1:19:48Holy Spirit, genuine power from on high, came?
- 1:19:53Sometimes I wonder if we are ready for the revival we are
- 1:19:55praying for. If it comes, will we really
- 1:19:58receive it? Hallelujah.
- 1:20:08There are few people and I say this sincerely.
- 1:20:11There are few people I have seen in my life as a man of God that
- 1:20:16were suffering terminal diseases and believers came and prayed on
- 1:20:20them and they were healed immediately.
- 1:20:23And got up. If you have seen how many let me
- 1:20:26know, I would be glad to learn from you.
- 1:20:28I'm not talking of someone who is sick that while you were
- 1:20:31praying both you and the doctor were working together.
- 1:20:33Eventually, glory be to God, he was healed.
- 1:20:36I'm talking about people who it was.
- 1:20:37An entire display of the power of God that someone who could
- 1:20:42not walk clearly diagnosed with cancer stage 4 and you came to
- 1:20:47that hospital and left with that patient.
- 1:20:53Our pride is too much. We have done well, but we need
- 1:20:57to settle down. We are still in kindergarten in
- 1:20:59the school of the Spirit. I tell you sincerely, it's an
- 1:21:02uncomfortable truth. But ladies and gentlemen, if
- 1:21:06this is truly the generation, then it must be a generation of
- 1:21:09humility and recognition that we must go down on our knees and
- 1:21:14say, Lord, we have tried, but show us the keys we are missing.
- 1:21:18There is certainly something wrong.
- 1:21:22Certainly. Certainly.
- 1:21:25I have watched a few of TL Osborne's crusades.
- 1:21:28Do you know what challenged TL Osborne to work in power?
- 1:21:32He went to India and preached like many of us are preaching.
- 1:21:36Oh, Jesus saves after fasting, after praying.
- 1:21:41He went there and nothing happened.
- 1:21:43The people were not interested because there was no proof.
- 1:21:47He went back and made-up his mind that he will contend for
- 1:21:51power and when that happened, he returned back there.
- 1:21:54When he was speaking, they did not pay attention.
- 1:21:57Based on what we're told, he called on a blind person out.
- 1:22:01He called on a crippled person and one other person.
- 1:22:03When they were healed, the people began to shout.
- 1:22:06My God. I have seen photos of his
- 1:22:08crusades and I've seen some of the videos.
- 1:22:11Honestly, if you don't see bad you would think they were lying.
- 1:22:17This this issue of legs growing that cannot be verified in our
- 1:22:21generation. Many times you go and see his
- 1:22:23crusade, you will see the metal that the person was wearing
- 1:22:28significant inches shorter than the other.
- 1:22:31And it came out in the presence of everyone.
- 1:22:35I watched the videos of Charles and Francis Hunter.
- 1:22:38I used to have the entire healing series.
- 1:22:42My God, I saw spectacular miracles by these people.
- 1:22:48I was told of one of our fathers of faith.
- 1:22:50He's going to be with the Lord. Now that man, that if he
- 1:22:55prophesied upon you, if you. Enter his wherever it is that
- 1:22:59he's praying, and if he speaks concerning you, believe me.
- 1:23:04Except you don't believe it, it will come to pass.
- 1:23:06They said His word did not fall to the ground till He died.
- 1:23:11There was nothing recorded that He told anybody in prophecy that
- 1:23:15didn't come to pass. The problem with the vessel, I
- 1:23:24repeat, and I want you to please listen to me.
- 1:23:26It's not that what we are doing is wrong, but we are beginning
- 1:23:30to replace Christ with self. It is on the abundance of
- 1:23:37rehearsal. There is a place for that, but
- 1:23:41everybody will listen to me because I studied my Bible,
- 1:23:46because I prayed, because I fasted.
- 1:23:51Now what happens when you fast and pray and study?
- 1:23:54Then it does not happen. Do you know why I'm saying this?
- 1:23:59This generation we're living now will not tolerate a life for a
- 1:24:03long time. Very soon people start coming
- 1:24:05out to say, Mister man, you said you healed is a lie.
- 1:24:08I'm not healed. My medical report is still here.
- 1:24:11I'm still sick. I pray it doesn't get to that
- 1:24:14point. Are we together now?
- 1:24:21Genuine manifestations of the power of God?
- 1:24:25Brothers and sisters, if the number of times we shout Amen in
- 1:24:29church, that grace literally rested on people, can I tell you
- 1:24:33the truth? Nobody will reject shouting
- 1:24:35Amen. I hope you know nobody leaves
- 1:24:37what works where. I'm not saying we're not seeing
- 1:24:40miracles here and there. We're seeing trickles of it, but
- 1:24:44I'm saying is too small for the pride that we keep
- 1:24:46communicating. All at the apex of his Apostolic
- 1:24:51ministry said I am the least of all the apostles.
- 1:24:54He said that I may know him. This is the true character of
- 1:24:59any vessel that wants to be used by.
- 1:25:01God, you must maintain a perpetual state of
- 1:25:05insufficiency. I've been crucified with Christ,
- 1:25:08the Bible says. Nevertheless, I leave, but not
- 1:25:12I, but Christ that lives in me and the life that I now live in
- 1:25:17the flesh. I live by the faith of the Son
- 1:25:20of God who loved me and gave himself for me.
- 1:25:26Every time I'm done with any service, every time I'm done
- 1:25:30with any meeting, I return back and I kneel before my God.
- 1:25:34I said, Lord, your boy is here to say thank you.
- 1:25:36Thank you for the much that you have done.
- 1:25:38But I know for the sake of one more person who was not.
- 1:25:42Healed the sake of one more person whose eyes did not open.
- 1:25:46The sake of one more person who has not returned with the
- 1:25:48testimony I am willing to submit to the school of the Spirit.
- 1:25:52I will learn. I'm not ashamed.
- 1:25:54To admit where I do not know. That is that, listen, if you're
- 1:25:59a man of God here. Listen to me twice.
- 1:26:01The days of pride and arrogance and the know it all mentality
- 1:26:05must die permanently. Are we together now?
- 1:26:10That's why I salute many of you who are vessels unto God, man of
- 1:26:14God, in your own capacities. Some are following online and
- 1:26:18some are humbling themselves to listen.
- 1:26:20You are not listening to a man who is better than you.
- 1:26:22This is an election of grace. It is the reason why there is no
- 1:26:27reason to brag. If I sit down and one of my dear
- 1:26:31people are preaching, I will sit and listen at that point that
- 1:26:35they are preaching. This is not father or son or man
- 1:26:38of God and prodigy. This is God speaking to a
- 1:26:41vessel. And I will listen.
- 1:26:43I will learn. I'm not listening to learn one
- 1:26:45or two things. What can God communicate through
- 1:26:48them? When the worship team are
- 1:26:52ministry, I don't look at them and say my people entertaining
- 1:26:55them. This is God using yielded
- 1:26:58vessels to speak to all of us. There is.
- 1:27:04A character disposition that must be restored to the body of
- 1:27:08Christ. A perpetual recognition that
- 1:27:13outside of the Cross, the best of our effort, even though
- 1:27:18spiritual, will end up in futility.
- 1:27:21Did you hear what I said? The best of our efforts.
- 1:27:24It is the reason why you see God raise some of us with no sense
- 1:27:28of comeliness, yet He continues to glorify God in our lives.
- 1:27:32It is a message. God told me this and I've
- 1:27:35announced it to you many times that He said, if you will let
- 1:27:39men see me, there is nothing I will not give you.
- 1:27:44Now let me tell you the truth, and I admit to you, and with all
- 1:27:47due respect to the Body of Christ, it is very difficult for
- 1:27:51a man of God to say what I'm saying to you like this, that
- 1:27:54you don't know some things. Will people respect you after
- 1:27:58that one? Will they come back again to
- 1:28:00hear you? Now what you need to understand
- 1:28:02is that members are not stupid people, whether you tell them or
- 1:28:05not, they know the truth. Are we together now?
- 1:28:10But they respect those who admit that they are learning and they
- 1:28:14can see your sincere press. But when you stand and carry a
- 1:28:18know it all mentality and yet there is no result to show.
- 1:28:22There are many other heights I need to step into every time I
- 1:28:26read my Bible. Do you know sincerely, I don't
- 1:28:29feel discouraged with my God. Sometimes I just sit down.
- 1:28:31I say, God, when will we catch up?
- 1:28:33This this distance is so far in Bible days.
- 1:28:40I would not qualify to be welfare departmental based on
- 1:28:45the qualifications they put there.
- 1:28:47No I will seek on for interview again.
- 1:28:50Me, Joshua Selman, the one who are clapping Man of God, King of
- 1:28:54Kings for some, Lord of Lords for others.
- 1:29:03I take away from your life by the Spirit, the spirit of pride.
- 1:29:09Free arrival mentality that will not allow you settle down and be
- 1:29:15sincere with yourself to learn the ways of God, to learn the
- 1:29:19precepts of God. I cross it right now in Jesus
- 1:29:22name. Let me speak in love,
- 1:29:28particularly to younger ministers.
- 1:29:31Never get yourself believing that you are better or greater
- 1:29:36than the Father's. You are wasting your time.
- 1:29:39These fathers, you see, there are things they have seen, There
- 1:29:42are many of us, particularly younger ministers who have not
- 1:29:45even started. But our pride will not allow us
- 1:29:49to be used by God. It is true that there is a
- 1:29:51mandate upon our lives, but can I tell you these fathers have
- 1:29:56lasted decades serving the Lord? We need to be careful.
- 1:30:00Our works are even yet to be vetted, for these are men who
- 1:30:04God has granted them grace. They have stood through storms,
- 1:30:08they have stood through rains. Things that some of us will not
- 1:30:11even be able to pass the test of half of it.
- 1:30:16The generation that dishonors your father's is the generation
- 1:30:20that will never receive any mantle.
- 1:30:22Let me say it again, the generation that dishonors
- 1:30:26fathers. Even if your father is Noah and
- 1:30:30you saw him drink and was naked, you still deserve that honor
- 1:30:35unto death. The generation that becomes
- 1:30:38self-sufficient and believes that the fathers have nothing to
- 1:30:42show or I have seen it all. Is it not the prayer of our
- 1:30:46father? Is it not God bless you?
- 1:30:48Is it not receive? Be careful.
- 1:30:51What makes the statue of a man is beyond his sermons.
- 1:30:55What makes the statue of a man is his experience with God and
- 1:31:00God's covenant with that man. If you judge people by what you
- 1:31:08perceive to be quality of sermons or quality of
- 1:31:12charismatism, you will make many mistakes.
- 1:31:16For instance, a man like our Father in the Lord Baba de Boi,
- 1:31:20if he comes here right now to come and preach.
- 1:31:23Some of you maybe, maybe, maybe. With all due respect, you may be
- 1:31:31sleeping and nodding your head and saying, well, he's a father.
- 1:31:34We respect him. This sleep, I didn't sleep
- 1:31:36yesterday. John chapter 3, verse 16.
- 1:31:41John chapter 3, verse 16. You turned there and the
- 1:31:44arrogant person has finished quoting it for him.
- 1:31:46For God so loved the world that he gave his one.
- 1:31:48OK, what is there now? What is the Greek and Hebrew?
- 1:31:50And he says, well, because of this, God wants to save you, He
- 1:31:55wants to heal you. But let me speak a word of
- 1:31:57blessing to someone and you see someone who has not made it, not
- 1:32:01raised anybody, is broke, is poor, doesn't have any
- 1:32:04discernment pocket in his hand and wondering.
- 1:32:07I'm not being sarcastic, I'm just being passionate.
- 1:32:10And at the. End of it.
- 1:32:11Those who have even made it are shouting Amen, sincerely, and
- 1:32:16that person gets up and after two weeks you vanish out of
- 1:32:21relevance. I repeat to you, dear
- 1:32:26generation, what makes the stature of a man in the Spirit
- 1:32:31is beyond the sermons. There is a track record men have
- 1:32:35with God that God honors them all through their lifetime.
- 1:32:40And we must learn this. There is a lot we must learn
- 1:32:43from the fathers #2 there is a lot we must learn from one
- 1:32:47another, one another, one another.
- 1:32:53By this teaching. We must castaway the know it all
- 1:32:56mentality. No, Joshua Salman, is there any
- 1:33:02other thing you do not know? Who would lie to you like that?
- 1:33:07Do you know how many things I do not know?
- 1:33:10Do you know how many other heights we need to cross in the
- 1:33:12spirit? Never allow what you know to
- 1:33:17destroy your passion to learn what you do not know.
- 1:33:28Even if every sick person that comes around me gets healed,
- 1:33:32even if every oppressed person around me comes and is
- 1:33:35delivered, I still have something to learn.
- 1:33:38You see, when I go for meetings to teach, I go to be a blessing
- 1:33:42to the people. But as I sit there, I'm like a
- 1:33:45sponge, learning all I can learn.
- 1:33:48If I can learn spirituality, I can learn excellence and
- 1:33:51administration. It's not an advantage we had in
- 1:33:54the North by default. With all due respect, most of
- 1:33:57the things I learned in terms of administration and leadership
- 1:34:00did not come from my background because I did not see that level
- 1:34:04of dexterity. Maybe moral excellence, maybe
- 1:34:07sincerity, but I had to outsource from people.
- 1:34:11For some of them, they received our spiritual understanding in
- 1:34:16exchange. We received your understanding
- 1:34:18of administration and dexterity. That sharing is one of the
- 1:34:22things that God wants to restore in the body of Christ that we
- 1:34:25can sit down and learn sincerely from one another the dimensions.
- 1:34:30There is no need trying to dig a well that has been dog.
- 1:34:34If God has anointed and graced a person in an area, it is
- 1:34:38important that that grace is respected and the riches from
- 1:34:42that grace is received. This is.
- 1:34:44How we will accelerate our becoming a mighty vessel.
- 1:34:50Hallelujah. No matter how many things you
- 1:34:54know about prayer, my God, there are people who have been praying
- 1:34:57before we were born. There are campgrounds in this
- 1:35:01nation where prayer is 24 hours. Even if you have been making
- 1:35:05mistake in prayer for 30 years, I think you should have learned
- 1:35:08something there. There is always something we can
- 1:35:13learn. Hallelujah.
- 1:35:17I can tell you, Graces that I've met and the things that I've
- 1:35:21learned. I remember one time years ago, I
- 1:35:27was just getting to know. With all due respect, I was just
- 1:35:29getting to know. Living Faith.
- 1:35:30Do you know how I got to know about God's servant?
- 1:35:33It was the kind of testimonies I was hearing that someone will
- 1:35:37tell you that he was a cleaner and by the next week.
- 1:35:41He's a manager. What kind of testimony is this?
- 1:35:46A cleaner then becomes a manager.
- 1:35:48No interview and I discern I said what kind of grace is this?
- 1:35:53We were not born to see that kind of grace.
- 1:35:56So we opened up our hearts. There must be something here
- 1:35:59Lord with humility. This grace is for our taking and
- 1:36:04they give it freely. What or no component must come
- 1:36:07in to receive and some of the things we have gotten today has.
- 1:36:11Come from these streams. Every time I've had the honor to
- 1:36:19meet our Father and the Lord that did you.
- 1:36:22I don't go there as a man of God bragging.
- 1:36:25I'm in a hurry to go on my niece.
- 1:36:27Lord, what else is it upon this man's life that can be useful
- 1:36:32for the sake of the generation we are represented?
- 1:36:35This is not human worship. I remember one time I've shared
- 1:36:38with you the story. I went to preach for a
- 1:36:40particular ministry and they kept me at the prayer city, MFM
- 1:36:44Prayer City. I slept quietly when it was
- 1:36:48night and all the protocol that came out gone back.
- 1:36:51I came out by myself and strolled around that place and
- 1:36:55prayed. I said, Lord, whatever you
- 1:36:57deposited here, Koinonia does not have a campground yet.
- 1:37:02Do you know the grace that made this people go to the Bush and
- 1:37:05turned it into cities? Come on now, don't tell me that
- 1:37:08is intelligence. You try it.
- 1:37:15Do you notice there was a grace that was released upon that
- 1:37:17generation? They all caught it.
- 1:37:20Bushes to cities. You are still struggling to get
- 1:37:23a duplex, A bungalow, and yet there are graces.
- 1:37:28Listen, every challenge in the body of Christ has somebody in
- 1:37:33the body of Christ who carries the anointing to solve it.
- 1:37:36It is lack of discernment and sheer dishonor to one another
- 1:37:42vertically and horizontally that is responsible for our
- 1:37:46stauntedness. There are people who were born
- 1:37:49from families full of poverty. They cried unto God, they
- 1:37:53fasted, they covenanted with God, and Jehovah Jireh showed
- 1:37:58up. For them and told them, I want
- 1:38:00to give you the keys that can bring people into blessings.
- 1:38:03When they found it they said body of Christ.
- 1:38:06There is something I found and those who don't even have it
- 1:38:09insulted. It looks like every generation
- 1:38:12seems to master the act of persecuting their saviors.
- 1:38:17So if someone comes up now and says God said I should prosper
- 1:38:22you the next thing you find out what what do I need the
- 1:38:25prosperity for? Listen, I don't want to tell you
- 1:38:30the bills, the things that have been paid and will be paid for
- 1:38:34for this conference. If I tell some of you, you will
- 1:38:36not sleep this night. You saw that venue we are
- 1:38:39clapping about. Use your intelligence that kind
- 1:38:42of. Beautiful venue.
- 1:38:43If it's your own, how much will you give it out?
- 1:38:51The venue you are sitting in right now down to all the
- 1:38:54overflows, the basement outside, if it is your property, how much
- 1:38:59do you think it is to run Coinonia every service and
- 1:39:02you're not raising any extra offering?
- 1:39:04You are enjoying now, everything is working, you're fine.
- 1:39:09The security architecture in this ministry alone, let me
- 1:39:13leave that to glory be to God. The revival that is coming and
- 1:39:32the vessels that God desire. Please hear me.
- 1:39:35There must be vessels that are yielded enough first.
- 1:39:41Loving Jesus with all your heart, but #2 respecting the
- 1:39:46investment of the Spirit that has been scattered across the
- 1:39:50body of Christ. No matter how you walk with God
- 1:39:53personally, you will not get every grace you need directly
- 1:39:56from Him. Did you hear what I said?
- 1:39:58No matter how close you work with God, the graces that you
- 1:40:04will need have been carefully distributed across the body.
- 1:40:08It will take humility and submission to God, to one
- 1:40:13another, to His system. There are many churches today
- 1:40:18who have some of the most brilliant minds in the nation as
- 1:40:23the members. And most of the problems that
- 1:40:25play those churches, there are consultants in those churches.
- 1:40:29In 5 minutes they can create a financial model, a leadership
- 1:40:34model that would take that church out of suffering and
- 1:40:37mediocrity and numerical decline forever.
- 1:40:40And yet we men of God come with our pride just because
- 1:40:43intelligent people submit to listen to us.
- 1:40:46We think that we're talking to a band of dummies calling ONIA for
- 1:40:50a case study. Ladies and gentlemen, you have
- 1:40:52no idea the kind of intelligent professionals some of them sit.
- 1:40:58Only in the. Overflow.
- 1:40:59They don't even come inside. These are people of pedigree and
- 1:41:04they just come to learn and listen quietly.
- 1:41:08This is the generation that must adopt humility so we do not make
- 1:41:12a mess of ourselves in pride and then we do not mislead a
- 1:41:16generation to follow through. The basis of the power of God
- 1:41:21revealed in our generation, I repeat, is not our
- 1:41:25self-sufficiency. I began to see the power of God
- 1:41:28in my life when he helped me die to self self-sufficiency.
- 1:41:33I fast, oh I pray, oh I study God's word.
- 1:41:37But let me tell you the truth, I have never credited my growth to
- 1:41:42any of these things. I am what I am by the grace of
- 1:41:45God. It is true that this grace was
- 1:41:48not showered on me in that I labored more than ye all.
- 1:41:51But every time I pray, I pray standing behind the cross, I
- 1:41:56fast. I fast.
- 1:41:57Standing behind the cross. I studied the word.
- 1:42:00I studied the word standing behind the cross.
- 1:42:02When I'm coming for any service, any other service, the miracle
- 1:42:06services. I stand behind the cross.
- 1:42:10The sound of revival conferences is not just a great man of God
- 1:42:14going to meet a bunch of sinners in America, a bunch of sinners
- 1:42:18around the world. No, that self righteousness will
- 1:42:21always produce embarrassment. God sees my heart that what we
- 1:42:26are doing as a vision is making our own contribution to this
- 1:42:30Kingdom come agenda. It is the reason why God keeps
- 1:42:33glorifying Himself. The way he does, within 48
- 1:42:37hours, a significant portion of the space that was allotted for
- 1:42:42the conference has been filled up.
- 1:42:45Nicodemus came and told Jesus no man can do this except God be
- 1:42:50with him. You try to use another formula
- 1:42:53out of Jesus Christ. See, idolatry is not only
- 1:42:57worshipping idols. Idolatry is also worshipping
- 1:43:00yourself. You may not build.
- 1:43:04An idol. You may not go and get some ugly
- 1:43:08thing and tie a red bun around it, but worshiping yourself in
- 1:43:12self-sufficiency is idolatry. He said thou shalt have no gods,
- 1:43:17including yourself. Are we learning now?
- 1:43:25I want you to try this. Let Jesus be the central focus.
- 1:43:29You are a man of God. Don't go and save this ministry.
- 1:43:32We cannot fail everything. I'm not downplaying pay your
- 1:43:37price, but behind that price, hide behind the real price that
- 1:43:43was paid. Are we together?
- 1:43:50We do a lot of dispatch riding here in Abuja.
- 1:43:54There are times that you can order a meal, someone can pay
- 1:43:57for the meal for you and then he tells you just coordinate the
- 1:44:00delivery to your house. Maybe what you ordered for maybe
- 1:44:05say 500,000 and then what you are transporting to your house
- 1:44:10maybe 1 or 2000. By the time you become so
- 1:44:13conscious of your transport fare that you forget the price of
- 1:44:17what you are even transporting to yourself, you are in trouble.
- 1:44:21This is how it is. The price that we pay is not the
- 1:44:26price for creation, is the price for delivery.
- 1:44:31Did you hear what I said? There is a price to pay, don't
- 1:44:36get me wrong. But the price to pay is not the
- 1:44:40price for miracles. You cannot pay the price for
- 1:44:43miracles. You cannot pay the price for
- 1:44:45prosperity. You cannot pay the price for
- 1:44:48science and wonders. We only pay the price of faith
- 1:44:51and obedience that coordinates the delivery of what Jesus
- 1:44:56Himself paid for. This is what I'm trying to
- 1:44:59correct. In our minds we believe that we
- 1:45:04went to the mall in the spirit ourselves and carried healing by
- 1:45:08our own might, and we are walking into a crusade ground
- 1:45:11through our fasting, through our prayer, through our Bible study.
- 1:45:15No Sir, the price that the believer prays is not the price
- 1:45:19to create miracles, is not the price to create results, is the
- 1:45:23price in righteousness as our participation with God to bring
- 1:45:28that which has been delivered. It was until I studied till.
- 1:45:32Was once material that I saw this.
- 1:45:35I said this is the key, this is what I've been missing.
- 1:45:38This is what my generation is missing.
- 1:45:40In our minds, we think we are paying the price Jesus paid.
- 1:45:44No man can pay that price, but we pay the price of.
- 1:45:48Delivery. When I fast, when I pray, I am
- 1:45:53not fasting and praying because that is the reason why the sick
- 1:45:57will be healed. That would be a lie.
- 1:45:59I cannot fast enough to raise anybody from a wheelchair.
- 1:46:03I cannot pray enough to shift any climate by myself.
- 1:46:08What we pray and fast and study to do is to grant us
- 1:46:12illumination. Watch this now.
- 1:46:14To be able to safely receive that which has come from him and
- 1:46:19to deliver it safely to the people, you get what you get
- 1:46:23that. If you understand what I just
- 1:46:25told you, you have understood my message tonight.
- 1:46:29It is not a call to head fasting.
- 1:46:30No, it is not a call to head prayer.
- 1:46:34No, it is not a call to reject dissipating energy for your
- 1:46:37growth. But have it at the back of your
- 1:46:40mind if you ever see one person shout under the anointing in
- 1:46:44Koinonia. You ever see anybody rise up,
- 1:46:49throw a crotch, a wheelchair, blind eyes open?
- 1:46:53Don't just think Joshua Selman. Think Joshua Selman later, but
- 1:46:57think Jesus. If I ever make any altar call
- 1:47:02and people come, chances are excellent you will say this, an
- 1:47:05anointed man of God. Say that later on.
- 1:47:07You are not wrong, but what you should say is Jesus.
- 1:47:13People fasted before Jesus died. It didn't produce power.
- 1:47:17The scribes, as much as I know a bit of Scripture, I don't know
- 1:47:22the five books of Moses in my head.
- 1:47:24I don't even have a space for it.
- 1:47:26Are we together now? The one in my phone is enough.
- 1:47:29I will not put that kind of luggage in my head yet.
- 1:47:33There were people who knew it. I hope you know.
- 1:47:36Many of the blessings we caught was in their head and yet it did
- 1:47:39not speak. Listen, if you buy a new fridge
- 1:47:44and you don't power to electricity, it will still not
- 1:47:47work. If you buy a television and you
- 1:47:50don't power to electricity, it will not work.
- 1:47:52Tonight's message is a Clarion call on my generation.
- 1:47:56We need to understand and define.
- 1:47:58What we call the price for revival, the price for power,
- 1:48:04the ultimate price has been paid.
- 1:48:07If we are trying to pay, it is deception.
- 1:48:11The price that we pay in righteousness is the price of
- 1:48:16alignment so that we can safely deliver by capacity and albeit
- 1:48:24is still by grace. It is not of him that willeth,
- 1:48:28nor of him that runeth, but it is of the Lord that showeth
- 1:48:31mercy. I remember when I stepped into
- 1:48:34Manchester for the Crusade, when I stepped in and I sat down and
- 1:48:37I saw the crowds of people and in a few minutes I was going to
- 1:48:42walk up and preach. I knew there were sick people.
- 1:48:45These were not people who were my people, that if they are not
- 1:48:48healed they will say let's pity him and come out.
- 1:48:51I knew I had to pray for the sick.
- 1:48:53These white people would not lie.
- 1:48:56And I was standing there before the whole world.
- 1:48:58You think it was the consciousness of my fasting.
- 1:49:05When God began to do the things that He did, tears almost came
- 1:49:09down my eyes and all I saw was the cross, the cross, the cross.
- 1:49:18I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ.
- 1:49:21I can be ashamed of my fasting. I can be ashamed of my prayer,
- 1:49:25but not the gospel. So my dear people, continue your
- 1:49:29fasting and finish it well. Continue your prayer and finish
- 1:49:33it well. But remember.
- 1:49:36Never try to elevate yourself through pride and self
- 1:49:39righteousness. That now that I am done with my
- 1:49:42fasting, now that I gave 1,000,000 to God, Now that I
- 1:49:46just finished Revelations 22, my life.
- 1:49:49Must change. No, we pay our price hiding
- 1:49:55behind the cross. Let me say this again, This is
- 1:49:59the generation. These are the mighty men that
- 1:50:03will become mighty in the spirit.
- 1:50:06But our concept of being mighty is mighty to God, not mighty in
- 1:50:11ourselves. If you think there will be
- 1:50:14sudden, a sudden emergence of macho men who can shout more
- 1:50:19than we are shouting, you will be disappointed.
- 1:50:21That is not the description of the army.
- 1:50:23Let me tell you the kind of army you are going to see ordinary
- 1:50:26men, more ordinary than you see. Did you hear what I'm telling
- 1:50:30you? You are going to see ordinary
- 1:50:32men that do not look like it. You will look at the lady and
- 1:50:35size her and say you, it is you God is going to use to change
- 1:50:39this place in Kogi state and should say he told me.
- 1:50:45And you say God, you must be joking.
- 1:50:47This weak lady. Surely Eliab is the Lord's
- 1:50:51anointed and he says no, no, Eliab is well built.
- 1:50:56But this is not how I see things.
- 1:50:57Go to the Bush. There is a young boy there.
- 1:51:01Now that young boy practice how to throw his sling, but it was
- 1:51:06not the sling, it was the power of God.
- 1:51:09When he said, I come to you in the name of the Lord God of the
- 1:51:15armies of Israel, he was still holding a sling.
- 1:51:18That sling is your fasting. That sling is your prayer.
- 1:51:21That sling is your Bible study. That sling is your consecration.
- 1:51:25Are we together now? That sling is your giving.
- 1:51:28But as you use your fasting, as you use your prayer, as you use
- 1:51:33your Bible study, the moment you throw it, know that in itself it
- 1:51:38cannot bring Goliath down. But there is a force that writes
- 1:51:42upon your fasting. There is a force that writes
- 1:51:45upon your prayer. There is a force that writes
- 1:51:48upon your giving. That force is not an, it is a
- 1:51:53him. It's called Jesus.
- 1:51:54Jesus, I suddenly found a missing link.
- 1:52:06I prayed and I said, Lord, open my eyes.
- 1:52:09Where is this here? So the balance here is there are
- 1:52:13people who, when they find out that the ultimate price has been
- 1:52:17paid, Jesus, let me use this to balance up and then we'll wrap
- 1:52:21up. There is an arrow that can come
- 1:52:24out of what I've just said. If not balanced, it is the arrow
- 1:52:29of complacency that will make us OK.
- 1:52:32Jesus has paid the price. Why fast?
- 1:52:35Why pray? Why give?
- 1:52:38Remember the story of David and Goliath.
- 1:52:43Remember the story of my dispatch rider?
- 1:52:47These are stories to help you connect between your price and
- 1:52:51his price. His price bought the product.
- 1:52:55Your price helps to guarantee his delivery to you.
- 1:53:01David went to the battle. By his own effort he went there.
- 1:53:06The sling and the training of it was his personal practice.
- 1:53:10But when it had to do with bringing Goliath?
- 1:53:13Down he threw that sling, a combination of fasting, a
- 1:53:17combination of prayer, a combination of reading all the
- 1:53:20books. When he threw it, there was
- 1:53:23effort on his part, but you would have missed Goliath
- 1:53:27anyway. But when that divine power
- 1:53:31pushed that sling, it hit Goliath once.
- 1:53:35This is how to make fasting profitable when fasting hides
- 1:53:40behind the cross. It becomes powerful when giving
- 1:53:44hides behind the cross. It becomes powerful.
- 1:53:47Are we together now? When praying hides behind the
- 1:53:51cross, it becomes powerful. When Bible study hides behind
- 1:53:55the cross, it becomes powerful. When he, Greek and Hebrew and
- 1:54:00Latin and Aramaic words hide behind the cross, they become
- 1:54:04powerful. The moment you replace the
- 1:54:07cross, all you carry is a sling. All you carry is a dispatch
- 1:54:12rider with no product. So we come to people and say you
- 1:54:16know what, you will be healed now if you are not healed.
- 1:54:19I'm not Joshua Salman. And at the end of it, we don't
- 1:54:22change our names because the people were not healed because
- 1:54:27we came with a slink. And even though we say in Jesus
- 1:54:30name, the truth is that it's not it.
- 1:54:32With the consciousness to decrease so that he will
- 1:54:36increase. Ladies and gentlemen.
- 1:54:39All those auditoriums you saw for US, for UK, for Canada will
- 1:54:45be packed full with hungry people.
- 1:54:47And this frail man you see standing before you, as frail as
- 1:54:51you still see me, will be standing there before those
- 1:54:54people. The only difference is that I
- 1:54:57will be hiding behind. The cross.
- 1:55:09And it is because of Jesus that is what will give value to our
- 1:55:14fasting. All I'm carrying there is the.
- 1:55:16Sling. I will fast, I will pray, I will
- 1:55:20study. There will be a someone I will
- 1:55:23preach that day. There will be people worshiping.
- 1:55:26Everything you heard the worship team sing was the sling.
- 1:55:30What you are hearing me say now is still the sling.
- 1:55:34When you see people come here to give their lives to Christ, that
- 1:55:37penetrating power that is getting into your spirit.
- 1:55:40That one is not my sermon. Again, it is a cross amplifying
- 1:55:44what I'm doing. That is why sometimes you will
- 1:55:46hear us communicate in the most basic way as childish uttering
- 1:55:50had Bunker. Do you know the kind of big
- 1:55:52cross that was behind Renat Bunker?
- 1:55:54Now you know why the sick were healed.
- 1:55:56Man of God, I give you a formula.
- 1:55:59Go and try it and come back rejoicing.
- 1:56:03Listen, they returned to Jesus rejoicing and said even the
- 1:56:08demons were subject to us, not because of anything we did in
- 1:56:13your name. Africa is a praying continent.
- 1:56:19Commendable. We must retain that template.
- 1:56:23Africa is a. Fasting continent?
- 1:56:27Commendable. We must retain that template.
- 1:56:30Africa is a given continent. Commendable.
- 1:56:34We must retain that template. Africa is a watch, study, church
- 1:56:39going, conference holding continent.
- 1:56:44We must maintain that template. But what we need to reintroduce
- 1:56:49to Africa is that all things must step back and allow the
- 1:56:53cross, which is the ultimate price, and allow Jesus who truly
- 1:56:59paid the ultimate price. He must take the stage in our
- 1:57:03churches that while we are fasting, we must let people know
- 1:57:08that the assignment of my fasting is not to.
- 1:57:11Create healing, not to create salvation is to help my
- 1:57:15alignment. My fasting does not help God.
- 1:57:18My prayer does not help God. My prayer does not make Jesus
- 1:57:22strong. My word study does not make
- 1:57:24Jesus strong. Every spiritual activity
- 1:57:27affects. Me not thank God from his end.
- 1:57:32All things are finished. My assignment is to keep
- 1:57:36aligning, take it, take it lower.
- 1:57:39For me it's time to sing and wrap up.
- 1:57:42He won't stop. He won't stop till I look just
- 1:57:48like him. He won't stop.
- 1:57:50No, He won't stop till my life looks like him.
- 1:57:57God is raising mighty man in this place.
- 1:58:04God is raising people of power in this place.
- 1:58:08He won't stop. He won't stop till I look just
- 1:58:13like him. He won't stop.
- 1:58:16He won't stop till my life looks like.
- 1:58:21Hear me if I tell you today calling on your global.
- 1:58:27If I tell you today that I am where I am, having the kind of
- 1:58:32grace that God has given me, enjoying the privileged
- 1:58:35influence that God has given me entirely as a product of the
- 1:58:40correctness of my Bible study, my prayer life, my fasting, I am
- 1:58:46a liar. Did you hear what I said?
- 1:58:49Let me repeat it again. If I tell you God is doing what
- 1:58:54He's doing through me simply because I fasted more than
- 1:58:57everybody, I prayed more than everybody.
- 1:59:00I confessed God's Word more than everybody.
- 1:59:02It's a lie. I know people we are raising who
- 1:59:05have not come close to their hours and days of fasting.
- 1:59:09I told you about the gentleman who fasted for 400 days.
- 1:59:14I wrapped up the meeting with him.
- 1:59:16And that gentleman has not raised one person from a
- 1:59:19wheelchair that the Excellency of power may be of God.
- 1:59:26It is the reason why I do not count anything in my life worthy
- 1:59:31of bragging about. Because the price that I'm
- 1:59:35mandated to pray, I repeat, is the price for delivery, not
- 1:59:40price for creation. Price for delivery, not price
- 1:59:44for creation. So if I say in the name of Jesus
- 1:59:48Lord, heal the people, bless the people, I am not making the
- 1:59:52miracles happen necessarily. The miracles are there in the
- 1:59:56Spirit. I am aligning myself.
- 1:59:59And fulfilling the ordinances that have been connected to
- 2:00:03their safe delivery. If you know this, we are ready
- 2:00:06for revival. Because now we can pray like
- 2:00:09never before, we can fast like never before, but we don't get
- 2:00:13up and begin to bully members and bully people.
- 2:00:16How many hours have you prayed? 2 hours?
- 2:00:19You are not serious. How many Bibles, scriptures have
- 2:00:22you read? I've only read from the whole of
- 2:00:25Genesis. By February only in Genesis you
- 2:00:28are not serious. It is self righteousness.
- 2:00:30It is legalism. It will only lead us to peril.
- 2:00:34We may be doing it sincerely, but this is a Clarion call.
- 2:00:38It is true that this is the generation that has been
- 2:00:40prophesied, but it is not going to happen the way we think.
- 2:00:45There is no man who has the accurate, perfect blueprint of
- 2:00:50what God is about to do. We only have types and shadows.
- 2:00:54All of us must file behind the cross with humility and allow
- 2:00:57the Lord of the Harvest, who is the Holy Spirit Himself, to lead
- 2:01:01this. Army.
- 2:01:02In this army there are no class monitors, there is only one
- 2:01:06spirit, and everybody's a student.
- 2:01:08Nobody supervising another person.
- 2:01:11No, because we are all learning from the Spirit of God as well
- 2:01:16as learning from one another. Please hear me When the Bible
- 2:01:19says this is the generation, it is a generation that must
- 2:01:23understand God more accurately. The price for revival.
- 2:01:27I will repeat again, no. Amount of fasting and prayer,
- 2:01:32and what study and consecration will ever be enough in our
- 2:01:37strength to host God and bring revival.
- 2:01:40It is a lie. What we need to understand is
- 2:01:46that the price for every Sinner salvation has been paid.
- 2:01:50The price for every sick persons healing has been paid.
- 2:01:54Hear me the price for the prosperity that will help your
- 2:01:58establishment. Has been paid, fully paid, not
- 2:02:04part payment, not have payment. What then is your own
- 2:02:07commitment? Why do you then come to church?
- 2:02:10Why do you then pray? Why do you then fast?
- 2:02:13Why do you then come for another call?
- 2:02:15Remember. It is the price for alignment
- 2:02:19for the purpose of delivery. Alignment for the purpose of
- 2:02:23delivery. If you will not praise me, I
- 2:02:26will raise up stones. Stones don't fast.
- 2:02:29Stones don't sing. Praise and worship.
- 2:02:31Stones don't do this. But they can still praise Him if
- 2:02:35he so wishes. So if you are praising him, it's
- 2:02:38not just because of your voice, my dear worship.
- 2:02:41Team people, keep building your voices, but know this, it is not
- 2:02:45the sound of your voice that makes someone to rise from a
- 2:02:48wheelchair, no. The sound of your voice is to
- 2:02:53train yourself enough to bring in the excellence that sponsors
- 2:02:57safe delivery. Rise upon your feet.
- 2:03:12There's going to be a great awakening.
- 2:03:18There's going to be a great revival in our land.
- 2:03:24There's going to be a great awakening, everyone who cooks on
- 2:03:35Jesus, they will be. My brother, hear me.
- 2:03:44It is not only the Joshua Salman's God is looking for.
- 2:03:47He's looking for you. There is something I cannot do.
- 2:03:50It is not part of my assignment. It's not in the blueprint of my
- 2:03:53description, but it is needed for this awakening.
- 2:03:57Listen to me. Never celebrate men at the
- 2:04:00detriment of your own call. Love people and admire people,
- 2:04:04but not to the point of worship. There is also a place for you in
- 2:04:08prophecy, and I have thought you.
- 2:04:11Go and listen to my message. Redefining the coming revival
- 2:04:15one more time. Redefining the coming revival.
- 2:04:17Go and listen to it. I teach there that the revival
- 2:04:22that is coming is not only the revival of Elijah's.
- 2:04:26Mary's have a role to play, Joseph's as economic giants have
- 2:04:31roles to play. Daniels as leaders have roles to
- 2:04:35play. The revival would not just be
- 2:04:37about pulpit and crusades. It will be the whole capture of
- 2:04:41God's intelligence invading the cosmos.
- 2:04:44If God is sending you to do business, don't turn and start
- 2:04:47preaching because you were told only preachers are serious with
- 2:04:51God. Businessmen 2 can be serious
- 2:04:53with God. If preachers are broke and they
- 2:04:55have nobody to finance them, it will look like God did not call
- 2:04:59them. Stay in your area of call and
- 2:05:01have the same confidence of an apostle, the same confidence of
- 2:05:05an evangelist. When we gather like this in
- 2:05:08Koinonia, it is a convergence of people from various stations
- 2:05:13coming together to learn. When we are done, we diverge
- 2:05:17back to our places. Samson goes back to where he
- 2:05:21should go. Elijah goes back to where he
- 2:05:23will go. Mary goes back to where she
- 2:05:26should go. Esther goes back to the palace.
- 2:05:28This is the revival we are praying for.
- 2:05:33The revival will not just be crusades alone.
- 2:05:36Other revivals generally seem to be crusades alone.
- 2:05:40For this revival that is coming, I can tell you it's an awakening
- 2:05:44that will affect every strata of human activities.
- 2:05:49If preachers are the only ones who spearhead the revival, it
- 2:05:52will fail. The preachers need counselors to
- 2:05:55advise them in wisdom so they don't destroy their ministries
- 2:05:59because of lack of intelligence. The counselors need men of God
- 2:06:02to pray for them so that they are they are rid of all kinds of
- 2:06:06attacks. The men of God themselves need
- 2:06:08doctors to help them and encourage them to stay healthy
- 2:06:12by teaching them what to eat to have the energy to continue on
- 2:06:15the crusade ground. Are we together?
- 2:06:19The men of God need faithful members and faithful people to
- 2:06:23lift up their hands. The crusade grounds need
- 2:06:26technical people, not just preachers.
- 2:06:29The man of God is ready to preach, but there are those who
- 2:06:32need to set the sound. The man of God can preach, but
- 2:06:36the crusade will need worshippers.
- 2:06:38The crusade will need financiers who are erring right now to the
- 2:06:42world. It is not just tongues that made
- 2:06:44that happen. There is the professional
- 2:06:46creativity and intelligence of people that is making this world
- 2:06:50to go to the globe one. Prayer.
- 2:06:53Lord, in whatever capacity you desire to use me, I am ready and
- 2:06:58I'm available. Go ahead and pray.
- 2:07:04Please go ahead and pray. Take it seriously.
- 2:07:07No moving around. Please pray.
- 2:07:09Everyone pray Zarya, make sure you are praying.
- 2:07:19Go ahead and pray, Sali barato savraka de belleca de Vacasiata,
- 2:07:27in whatever capacity someone is praying.
- 2:07:30Is Esther praying? Is Elijah praying?
- 2:07:34Is Abraham praying? Is Gideon praying?
- 2:07:39Naomi, are you praying? Ruth.
- 2:07:42Are you praying, Mary? Are you praying, preparing to
- 2:07:46birth Jesus? Elizabeth, are you praying John
- 2:07:50the Baptist? Are you praying, Apostle Paul?
- 2:07:53Are you praying? Everybody has a role to play.
- 2:07:58The mother at home has a role to play.
- 2:08:01The banker has a role to play. The Kingdom billionaire has a
- 2:08:05role to play. The politician has a role to
- 2:08:09play. The chef, the caterer has a role
- 2:08:16to play. The technical person has a role
- 2:08:19to play. The leadership consultant has a
- 2:08:22role to play. The judiciary have a role to
- 2:08:25play. The sports people have a role to
- 2:08:29play. Pray everyone Father, find a
- 2:08:33worthy vessel in me. I am a vessel that is available.
- 2:08:40I will not be careless. I will not be godless.
- 2:08:43Someone is praying regardless my background.
- 2:08:48Find a precious vessel in me. I submit myself to learn.
- 2:08:55I submit myself to honour fathers.
- 2:08:59I submit myself to learn from mentors.
- 2:09:03From colleagues, from contemporaries, whatever you
- 2:09:08want to do, Lord, you can do through me whatever you want to
- 2:09:22say. Lord, you can say through.
- 2:09:29Me whoever you want to. Lift, Lord, you can live through
- 2:09:36me. Go ahead and pray, I'm your I'm
- 2:09:41yours forever before. Listen.
- 2:10:02Whatever you want. To start, Lord, you can start
- 2:10:10through me. Whatever you want to end, Lord,
- 2:10:16you can end. Hallelujah.
- 2:10:26Now hear me, hear me, listen to me.
- 2:10:31Ladies and gentlemen, I want you to go and listen to this message
- 2:10:36and give everybody you can find. This is a prophetic message to
- 2:10:41the body of Christ that this is truly the generation.
- 2:10:46What will make us different from other generations is not more
- 2:10:50fasting wrong, not more prayer wrong, not more Bible study.
- 2:10:56Wrong. It is the privilege of an
- 2:10:59election of grace with the humility of heart.
- 2:11:04This is a generation that God will use because we are the
- 2:11:08generation that has chosen willingly to hide behind the
- 2:11:12cross and to recognize that all that will be wrought in
- 2:11:16righteousness through us. Will happen because the price
- 2:11:20has been paid. Our price is not to pay what
- 2:11:25Jesus has paid. Our price is to use the
- 2:11:28spiritual activities in righteousness with every depth
- 2:11:32of humility to align ourselves that by the mercy of God we can
- 2:11:38do the stamina of prayer, fasting, obedience,
- 2:11:43consecration. We can receive delivery.
- 2:11:47From the realm of the spirit where it resides to the realm on
- 2:11:52earth where it is needed, this is your assignment.
- 2:11:55Any other thing after that, the devil has given you a burden
- 2:11:59that has no rewards. I have studied my Scripture.
- 2:12:04I have learned from people who produce results and by the
- 2:12:07privilege of God's grace, the bit that we have produced here I
- 2:12:11can tell you with audacity and with the confidence of
- 2:12:14Scripture. Legalism.
- 2:12:17Pride, self righteousness, believing that it is on account
- 2:12:21of what we have done. It will not end us anything.
- 2:12:24We will only waste our time and be shouting week after week
- 2:12:28until we become old and watch in shock that God's program is
- 2:12:32never birthed. Hear me, we are not better than
- 2:12:35the generation of the fathers before us.
- 2:12:38It is simply an election of grace.
- 2:12:41So I speak to every warrior. I speak to everyone who is part
- 2:12:45of this army. The reason for our excelling has
- 2:12:49never, will never be because we prayed a greater price.
- 2:12:55There is a price to pay, but the price is the price of delivery,
- 2:12:59not the price of creation. When David held the sling, that
- 2:13:05sling is like he's fasting. That sling is like his Bible
- 2:13:09study. That sling is like his
- 2:13:11consecration. That sling is like his prayer.
- 2:13:14But the sling in itself cannot bring down Goliath.
- 2:13:17It is the revelation of the name and the One who represents us
- 2:13:24and who we represent that made that happen.
- 2:13:28Let it be known to you all, Israel.
- 2:13:31That the same 1 you have crucified has today been exalted
- 2:13:34as Lord and Christ. And while they heard it, they
- 2:13:38were caught to the heart. Behold their threatenings, Acts
- 2:13:42chapter 4. And grant that signs and wonders
- 2:13:46be wrought. They were praying, but they said
- 2:13:49signs and wonders be wrought not because of our prayer.
- 2:13:53Through the holy name of your son.
- 2:13:55And the building shook, and they were filled with the Holy Ghost.
- 2:13:59One final prayer, Father, Grant me a revelation of Jesus above
- 2:14:06and beyond my spiritual activities.
- 2:14:10Grant me a revelation of the cross, the blood that flowed
- 2:14:14from Calvary's tree, that this is the basis for every healing.
- 2:14:18This is the basis for my prosperity.
- 2:14:22It is good to give, but no amount of giving is enough to
- 2:14:26program favor in your life. No amount of fasting, no amount
- 2:14:31of piety and religiosity and self righteousness is enough to
- 2:14:36make you qualified enough to host a revival.
- 2:14:39Coming. In.
- 2:14:48The name of Jesus, the son of the living God.
- 2:14:54Hallelujah. I want you to listen to this
- 2:14:57message before Sunday. Please take it as a prophetic
- 2:15:01instruction. I'm saying this to Colonial
- 2:15:04Global. Go to Colonial Global.
- 2:15:07Listen to this message at least two times.
- 2:15:10Please just take this as a prophetic instruction.
- 2:15:14Go and listen to it again, some this night, some by tomorrow.
- 2:15:19This time around, listen to it prayerfully.
- 2:15:22Find yourself in this sermon. I'm praying for some of you.
- 2:15:27While you are praying, you can even add fasting.
- 2:15:29Now you know your fasting will work because the fasting does
- 2:15:34not change God. It aligns you so that you will
- 2:15:36hear something then that you did not hear.
- 2:15:39Now Paul said that all he desired to know was Christ
- 2:15:49crucified. No wonder he was powerful.
- 2:15:52You think he was because of Paul's fasting and prayer.
- 2:15:55You think he was because of Peter's fasting and.
- 2:15:57Prayer. How many times did Jesus himself
- 2:16:00fast and pray in the Bible? 40 days once.
- 2:16:03How many 40 days have you done now?
- 2:16:05I'm not downplaying it. How many times did you see him
- 2:16:10reading the Bible? He went to the temple as his
- 2:16:12custom was. How many other times did he go
- 2:16:14when he started? I'm not downplaying these
- 2:16:17things, but I'm saying the Master went to make this happen.
- 2:16:22I will never. Believe my fasting is the reason
- 2:16:26why God is doing what He's doing.
- 2:16:27Know my prayer, I will keep paying the price.
- 2:16:30But for me and for this global family.
- 2:16:34If anybody asks you what is the true secret behind the mighty?
- 2:16:40Hand of God. In this ministry and in the life
- 2:16:44of this man, if you say Bible study, you didn't answer
- 2:16:47accurately. If you say fasting, you didn't
- 2:16:51answer accurately. If you say what study
- 2:16:55consecration, you didn't answer accurately.
- 2:16:58The real answer is the consciousness of Christ
- 2:17:02crucified and the reality of this resurrected power at
- 2:17:07working mortar vessels. Then when you say that you can
- 2:17:11say those riches in glory were enhanced and made manifest.
- 2:17:16Through fasting, you are right. Through.
- 2:17:19Bible study you are. Right.
- 2:17:21Through prayer, you are right. Through consecration, you are
- 2:17:24right. This is the real secret of
- 2:17:27revival. Lift your hands, Father.
- 2:17:30In the name of Jesus, I pray over your precious people.
- 2:17:34I have brought your truth, as you have said to me.
- 2:17:38The real secret that made generals the secrets we've been
- 2:17:42trying to find for a long time. You have granted us access to it
- 2:17:47by mercy that the secret is the cross, The secret is Jesus.
- 2:17:52The consciousness of the ultimate price that has been
- 2:17:55paid alongside the price of alignment we need to pay to
- 2:18:01bring full delivery. This is the real secret of the
- 2:18:06move of God. Help us, oh God, to be major
- 2:18:10participants in this wave of awakening and revival sweeping
- 2:18:14across this nation, Africa and even the globe in the name of
- 2:18:19Jesus Christ. Please keep your hands down.
- 2:18:24The starting point for the move of God is acknowledging the
- 2:18:27lordship of Jesus over your life.
- 2:18:30You've heard me teach. Please keep standing.
- 2:18:31I know we've been standing. My apologies, but I want to make
- 2:18:35a call now. No Co action.
- 2:18:37You are here and you are saying apostle sharing this message
- 2:18:41tonight. I cannot truly say I'm part of
- 2:18:43this army because only those who are in Christ by new birth
- 2:18:49acknowledging Jesus Christ can be part of that army.
- 2:18:53It is true that you are part of this generation, but that only
- 2:18:57happens in experience if you willingly make Jesus Lord of
- 2:19:00your life. I want to make an altar call
- 2:19:02right now calling two people in one number one.
- 2:19:06Those who are saying I truly need Jesus in a hurry and right
- 2:19:11now and then those who are saying, apostle, I want to
- 2:19:14rededicate my life to Christ. I'm counting one to five.
- 2:19:18Leave your seat, take your bags, your Bible, everything you came
- 2:19:21with and run to the front here. By the count of five, you should
- 2:19:25be standing here. You are doing this for the sake
- 2:19:28of Jesus and for the sake of your destiny.
- 2:19:31I begin my counting now. One, Kaidonia, Let's celebrate
- 2:19:34them. 2 Are you happy for a new recruit in this army?
- 2:19:49Mighty men and women coming to declare the lordship of Jesus
- 2:19:54over their lives. Three, all the overflows.
- 2:20:02Zarya, UK, Canada, US, anywhere across the globe.
- 2:20:08Make sure you indicate your desire to surrender everything.
- 2:20:14To Jesus, let him make beauty and glory out of your life.
- 2:20:22Hallelujah. Now do you think I can ever fast
- 2:20:27enough, ever pray enough, ever preach enough to make people
- 2:20:33leave their seats and come and stand here?
- 2:20:35You are intelligent now behind the frailty of my.
- 2:20:40Words behind the limitations of my fasting, behind the sincerity
- 2:20:46of my prayers, is the cross. This is what has brought these
- 2:20:49people here. This is what Preeta preached.
- 2:20:53Listen to me, I have read Peter salmon.
- 2:20:58I will not preach that kind of salmon on the crusade ground,
- 2:21:02but Peter preached it and 3000 people came because he did not
- 2:21:07speak in the flesh. Man of God, keep on with your
- 2:21:11diligence, but have it that at the back of your mind.
- 2:21:14The real secret is Jesus revealed and Jesus glorified
- 2:21:20those in front here. I salute you in the name of
- 2:21:23Jesus, the Son of the living God and I welcome everyone of you to
- 2:21:28displace. You are making the wisest
- 2:21:30decision that any man can make. It doesn't matter what is right
- 2:21:34or wrong in your life when you. Come to him.
- 2:21:38You will in no wise castaway, please lift your right hand with
- 2:21:40me as a sign of surrender to this Jesus, and say after me as
- 2:21:46loud and as clear as you can. Say, Lord Jesus, tonight I have
- 2:21:52heard your word. I believe that you are the Son
- 2:21:57of God. I believe that you died for my
- 2:22:02sin. I believe that you rose again
- 2:22:07for my justification right now. I receive Jesus into my heart as
- 2:22:15my Savior, as my Lord, and as my King.
- 2:22:20I declare that the power of sin, Satan, hell, and the grave is
- 2:22:30broken over my life from tonight and forever.
- 2:22:35I'm a child of God, washed by the blood of the Lamb.
- 2:22:39I go for whatever and back whatever.
- 2:22:43Amen. Keep your lovely hands, Father.
- 2:22:46We thank you. Please keep lifting them as I
- 2:22:48pray for you. Your word declares that as many
- 2:22:52who will come to you, you will. In no wise castaway.
- 2:22:55These precious ones have come declaring your lordship over
- 2:22:58their lives. And in the name of Jesus, I pray
- 2:23:01that based on the authority of God's Word, I declare your sins
- 2:23:05forgiving. I call you bonafide recipients
- 2:23:09of the life of God. I declare that you will go from
- 2:23:12glory to glory and grace to grace.
- 2:23:16That everything that is not of God, it must give way in the
- 2:23:22name of Jesus Christ. You are empowered by the Spirit,
- 2:23:26the same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead.
- 2:23:29That same Spirit empowers you to live a victorious life.
- 2:23:33In the name of Jesus, go from glory to glory, for in Jesus
- 2:23:38mighty name I pray Amen and Amen.
- 2:23:41Please let me request that you move to my right.
- 2:23:43There are counselors lifting the placard.
- 2:23:46They will have a word with you for a few minutes and then
- 2:23:49you'll be back to your seat. Let's honor them as they go.
- 2:23:52Corona, give them a big, big God bless you.
- 2:24:02Is that the best you can? Do.
- 2:24:12In Jesus name we pray. Please remember the instruction
- 2:24:16that I gave you. Go back and listen to this
- 2:24:19teaching again and hand it over in love to any and everyone you
- 2:24:24know that sincerely has a passion for the things of God, a
- 2:24:30passion to see the move of God come.
- 2:24:32There is a secret in this teaching that by mercy can
- 2:24:36deliver a generation in the name of Jesus.
- 2:24:39Lord, we all know you, and we thank you, we give you praise
- 2:24:43for that which you have done tonight.
- 2:24:46We worship you. We pray that as we depart, we
- 2:24:49depart in Your love, we depart in Your grace.
- 2:24:53We depart conscious of the price that you have paid, and we
- 2:24:58depart energized again to yet pay the price that we have to
- 2:25:02pay with this understanding to become yielded vessels, vessels
- 2:25:08that will do much for you with our lives.
- 2:25:10We give you all the praise. I bless your weak beginning.
- 2:25:14Say Amen. I bless your weak beginning.
- 2:25:18Enjoy favor, enjoy multiplication, enjoy honor.
- 2:25:25Nothing is missing in your life. Nothing is broken in your life
- 2:25:30trouble. Is far from you.
- 2:25:33You will enjoy the help from God.
- 2:25:35You will enjoy the ministry of destiny.
- 2:25:37Help us in the name of Jesus. Every tongue that rises against
- 2:25:42you, it falls in judgment. You will enjoy joy unspeakable,
- 2:25:47even full of glory. May the Lord anoint you are
- 2:25:51fresh and make you a mighty battle axe.
- 2:25:55May the Lord anoint you are fresh and cause you to be a sign
- 2:25:59and a wonder. Everything works in your favor.
- 2:26:03In Jesus mighty and matchless name we pray together.

- 2:26:11love of God, the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit.
