WORD-3 · Apostle Joshua Selman

0:07
Speaker 1: Raise the name of the Lord. Amen. While still standing,
0:15
let me just convey my gratitude to the entire Christian
0:22
community of this wonderful island. I have been absolutely amazed
0:29
at the love of the warmth, the hospitality. Thank you
0:32
very much, Thank you, Allelujah. Second, let me honor all
0:40
of the spiritual leaders I had the Man of God
0:44
introducing and celebrating them. I'm sent to the body of Christ.
0:49
So every time I have the privilege of being around
0:53
an atmosphere where there are several pastors, men and women
0:57
of God, cutting across several diners nations, my heart is gladdened,
1:02
and I honor every one of you, particularly the servants
1:07
of God. I believe that many of them are represented.
1:09
He had the Lord bless you. We truly honor you
1:12
the day of Jesus. And then if you will allow
1:17
me just to honor the host pastor of the church
1:21
that has allowed the use of the auditorium, we honor you.
1:24
Will bless you, and Allelujah. I know that every time
1:35
spent in his presence, if it is truly his presence,
1:40
he comes to transform, he comes to change, he comes
1:44
to lift. One thing I can tell you, for shure
1:48
is that your life will never be the same. Allelujah.
1:55
In one minute, I like all of us to lift
1:57
our hands to Jesus, all over this auditorium and those
2:02
connecting online and less, cry for an encounter tonight. Open
2:08
my eyes that I may see, Open my ears that
2:14
I may hearbala kata at the battle. Prand that's cut up.
2:34
Please pray.
2:34
Speaker 2: Let it be from the depth of your heart. Are
2:51
you praying? Father, give me an encounter tonight? And all
2:57
through this conference.
3:01
Speaker 1: Sheila gota prandagadaballah to Seada, I have come with my
3:05
heart opened.
3:10
Speaker 3: Send your word, Allelujah, praised the name of the Lord.
3:29
Speaker 1: Just two things very quickly, and then we'll sit down.
3:35
Number one, I like you to be very sensitive. In
3:39
Genesis chapter twenty eight, the Bible says how that Jacob
3:42
came and found a place in the night to sleep.
3:46
He set a stone there and began to sleep. And
3:51
as he lay to sleep, the Bible says he saw
3:55
a ladder that connected the heaven and the earth. He
4:00
saw angels ascending and descending. But the Bible never said
4:05
they were coming to him. They were passing him and
4:08
going to those who were calling them. He was there,
4:13
and yet they were moving angelic activities, but he did
4:17
not benefit from it. And when he woke up, he said,
4:21
surely the Lord was in this place, and I knew not.
4:25
He said, this is the house of God, the gates
4:28
of heaven. He learned his blessing. Then, when we get
4:32
to chapter thirty two, God would come again. This time around.
4:39
He held on to him and said, I made that
4:41
mistake before. I will not make it again. I will
4:44
not let you go unless you bless me. He said,
4:49
leave me for the day breaketh, and he said, I
4:52
will not let you go. Then he says, what is
4:55
your name? He said Jacob said, now shall no longer
4:58
be called Jacob for us a prince. You have had
5:02
power with God and prevailed. He touched the whole of
5:06
his tie and blessed him. The sun arose, and he
5:11
called the name of the place, Penny l. I have
5:14
seen God face to face, and my life is preserved
5:18
in every meeting. Please listen carefully in every meeting, In
5:25
every conference like this, there are usually two groups of people.
5:29
Number one, there are those who come as spectators, hoping
5:35
if they could learn one or two things, and that
5:38
disposition of pride alone will not even allow them to
5:42
receive anything, because the quality for reception in the spirit
5:46
is meekness. You receive with meekness, the ungrafted word. Then
5:51
there is another group who are hungry, desperate sincere passion it.
5:58
Even though they have been helped by God in different measures,
6:02
they know that even in heaven you can still come
6:04
up higher. And so they come with your hearts opened
6:09
and desperate. And it's my prayer sincerely that God himself
6:13
will cause all of us to be in this second group,
6:17
that we prepare our hearts to receive to be enlightened.
6:26
There is nothing that God is not able to do
6:29
if we pay attention, and if we listen to.
6:31
Speaker 4: Him who wins like him.
6:42
Speaker 1: The lion and the lamb see there under throw who
6:52
wins like you, the lion and the m see tre
6:59
un thear, throw.
7:04
Speaker 5: Mountains, bound down, every ocean, row.
7:11
Speaker 1: To the Lord of lords.
7:15
Speaker 5: I will praise Ah Donna.
7:21
Speaker 1: From the rising after the sun to the end of
7:26
every day.
7:28
Speaker 5: Praise Ah Donna, all the nations off the earth, all
7:38
the angels and the saints, saying praise.
7:45
Speaker 1: We're going to be seated shortly. But I don't know
7:50
why God does this. There are four people right now,
7:53
so I'm speaking one of you. One of them will
7:56
start running out by the spirit. Just hold him and
7:58
bring him out here. I don't want you to find
8:00
it strange. Where I believers, We believe in the full
8:03
counsel of God. This is what God is showing me.
8:05
The power of God will come upon one person. Literally.
8:08
I wanted to just help them, and then there are
8:10
three orders in total, four people. This is what the
8:13
Lord is revealing to me. Because I'm saying, even before
8:18
I sit down to or before we sit down, that
8:21
the world is taught there is a hunger and a
8:26
desperation that some of you have come with. Help them, please,
8:32
And the Bible says, now the Lord is that spirit,
8:40
so do not doubt the spirit. The Spirit is the Lord,
8:44
the Lord. There are other spirits, but this one, the
8:48
Lord is that spirit. And you know he is that
8:52
spirit because where the Spirit of the Lord is, there
8:58
is liberty. Please bring them out. I stretch my hands
9:02
by the spirit of Grace that honger that desperation in
9:08
the name of Jesus Christ. Place. Whether you're and Osha
9:11
or not, just help them, Chalibada, help them, please, Majesty
9:22
you brought us here to change us. You brought us
9:25
here to lift us. You will never be the same.
9:32
I assure you, you will never never be the same,
9:36
not after this conference.
9:45
Speaker 6: You the Covenant, keeping you, the Covenant, keeping in thea
10:00
away the Covenant, jiev away you, the Covenantvway, giving.
10:40
Speaker 1: The name of Jesus everything that is not the blunting
10:44
of the Lord over this one and over any life
10:49
represented here, even before the word comes in the name
10:53
of Jesus, the Son of the Living God, maybe off
10:56
from your life and destiny. In the name of Jesus Christ.
11:03
And for those of you who have come, I release
11:05
you into very deep dimensions of encounters in the spirit,
11:12
encounters of light, encounters of fire. By the power of
11:17
the Living God, I declare that your lives will never
11:20
never be the same. In the name of Jesus Christ.
11:26
May the Lord bless you, May the Lord lifd you.
11:30
In Jesus' name. Please be seated for a few minutes.
11:33
Let's get to the word, Mighty God. We're going to
11:44
be exploring the Word of God in line with the
11:48
theme of your conference. And whilst the Word is coming,
11:53
I like you to please be sensitive, because the Lord
11:56
is going to be healing. The Lord is going to
11:58
be delivering, The Lord is going to be setting the
12:00
captives free, and then he will be enlightening us through
12:04
the world. The Bible says in Isiac chapter sixty and
12:07
verse one, he says, Arise, shine, for thy light is come,
12:13
and the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.
12:16
Amplified says, Arise from the depression and the prostration that
12:20
circumstances have kept you, rise to a new light. It
12:26
is at the instance of God's word that we rise.
12:29
It is at the instance of God's word that we reign.
12:33
This is a kingdom that is knowledge driven. Please pay attention.
12:38
This is a kingdom that operates by light and operates
12:43
by knowledge. Our inability to sufficiently understand the truth of
12:48
scripture will short secute the potential of the life that
12:53
we have received in Christ. This is very important. We
12:56
must understand just being born again, being saved, as important
13:01
as it is, does not automatically release in and through
13:05
us the fullness of the potential of what we call
13:08
eternal life. It takes knowledge Efficients four and verse eighteen.
13:13
Having their understanding darkened, it says, being alienated from the
13:19
life of God through the ignorance that is in them
13:22
because of the blindness of their heart. So spiritual ignorance
13:29
can make a man, even though that man may be
13:33
a believer, not be able to come into the fullness
13:36
of the potential of what the faith life produces. Pal
13:41
eighty t one, Verse five. There was a lamentation there.
13:45
It says, they know not, neither will they understand. They
13:48
walk on in darkness, and all the foundations of the
13:52
earth are out of course. Verse sixss I have said
13:56
ye are gods, and all of you are children of
13:59
the most high the tragedies. In the next verse it says,
14:02
but you shall die like mayor men, and fall like
14:05
one of the princes. So even though we have been
14:09
called into a life of beauty and glory, a holy
14:12
calling and a high calling, it takes knowledge to pay
14:17
attention to knowledge. World conferences are feasts of the world
14:26
where we receive the word, access to the mysteries of
14:31
the Kingdom, access to spiritual information that are able to build,
14:36
are able to mature. It says, and that from a
14:39
child now has known the Holy Scripture, which is able
14:43
to build you up. Are we together now, yes, to
14:48
give you an inheritance among them that are sanctified. The
14:52
word of God is very powerful. While discussing the power
15:00
that is in God's word, we're trying to explore the
15:03
riches that are captured in the world of God and
15:10
will be very brief tonight, and then we'll pray. Let's
15:13
start from Harba Cook chapter three. Harba Cooke, chapter three,
15:18
from verse three and four. I wish we could get
15:21
verse four in amplified, but if we're unable to get it,
15:24
that's all right. God came from Teman and the Holy
15:28
One from Mount Paran. His glory covered the heavens and
15:33
the earth was full of praise. Verse four. I'd like
15:37
you to please read verse four if you can see projected. Ready,
15:41
let's read together. One to read. And his brightness was
15:45
as the light and the horns coming out of his hand,
15:49
and there was the hiding of his power, that the
15:55
power of God has a location. Now you read Amplified,
15:59
amplify this project. Thank you media. Can we read again? Now? Ready?
16:02
Want to read? And his brightness is like the sunlight. Ahah.
16:08
He has bright rays flashing from his hand, and there
16:14
in the sun like splendor is the hiding place of
16:19
his power. The power of God has a location where
16:23
it resides. The Bible says, in his light, light, Light, Light,
16:34
Please bring the lady that shouts loud under the anointing
16:37
right now to the hearing of everyone, a loud shout.
16:40
This is what I heard from the spirit. This is
16:43
a ministry, and Apostolic ministry is a ministry of science
16:46
and wonders and these things. Is not just about some
16:49
Pentecostal jamboree. There is always a message in everything that
16:54
God does. No, no, no, no no, I'm not asking you
16:56
to come out at random. The power of God will
16:58
bring you out loud shout from the congregation. The power
17:02
of God will come on a lady. This is what
17:04
I'm seeing. Please where that happens, Allelujah, Pay attention. I
17:12
will still here. So the word of God is where
17:21
the power of God resides. And we're going to be exploring.
17:25
Let's see how far we can cover for tonight. The
17:30
Lord is bringing captivity to the family of that lady.
17:33
This is what the Lord is telling me. Captivity comes
17:37
to an end. Did the Bible not said now the
17:41
Lord is that spirit. I repeat, and that where the
17:44
Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. The things
17:49
that we read in this Bible are not just stories,
17:53
they are not just parables. If you're a man of
17:56
God here, you are a minister of the Gospel. Here.
17:59
It is my prayer that in this conference you will
18:01
contact the grace to represent God in reality, that we
18:08
will stop advocating a theoretical God and bring to bear
18:14
the reality of scripture. I write these things to you,
18:17
o excellenty your FORO loos of all that Jesus began
18:21
to do and teach in his presence and age long
18:30
captivity like this, just like that gone. This is what
18:36
Jesus does. He does not just do it to show
18:39
that a man of God is powerful. He does it
18:41
to demonstrate the excellency of this kingdom. So when you
18:46
tell someone come to Jesus, you are not advocating a religion. No,
18:52
you are telling him I am advocating a life that
18:54
is superior and whose superiority can be proven. Here and
19:00
now are we blessed? John Chapter one, verse one. What
19:10
is the Word of God? Let us begin by discussing
19:13
the Word of God, John Apostle John, Now please look up.
19:16
Theologically speaking, the Gospels are divided into four we call
19:21
them the Synoptic accounts. These were all eyewitness accounts. Let
19:27
me just minister to this gentleman in the name of
19:29
Jesus Christ. I stretch my hands and I declare, let
19:33
captivity over his life and family come to an end. Amen.
19:41
All right, So let's continue now, John Chapter one, Verse one,
19:45
the Bible says, in the beginning, it was only apostle
19:53
John who began his discourse from the divinity of Christ.
19:58
When you read other synoptics, some of them started from
20:02
an archeological standpoint, or that started from the historic standpoint
20:07
with the census that was going on in the days
20:09
of Jesus. Are we together? Others started, like Mark, straight
20:13
from the miracles. But it was John that approached his
20:19
synoptic account from the standpoint of the divinity of Christ.
20:24
He traced it down to the beginning. So having that
20:28
in mind, let's way. John One was one in the
20:30
beginning was the word, he says, And the word was
20:39
with God, and the word was God. Now very instructive statement.
20:47
The word was with God, the word was God. Verse
20:53
two the Bible says the same. The word now was
20:58
with God in the beginning. And then a very interesting
21:01
rendition was three. And then we'll post for now he
21:04
says all things, how many things, All things were made
21:08
by him, not it him. So we see the first
21:14
expression of the world being personified, that the world is
21:18
not just a book. He's talking about the Word of God,
21:21
and he's saying that please give it to us now.
21:26
Verse three, All things were made by him and without him.
21:32
That means outside of him was not anything made that
21:37
was made. All things were made by him. And if
21:43
you ever see anything that was made, he was the
21:46
one who made it. The Word of God. For many
21:55
people we pick up a Bible like this and we said,
22:00
this is the Word of God. Generally speaking, we are
22:03
right in that it's a book that was inspired. The
22:07
Bible says all scripture was inspired of the Holy Spirit,
22:10
that holy men wrote as they were moved by the spirit.
22:13
Are we together? But in reality, this was a book
22:17
that was published by a book publishing house. It is
22:22
possible that the publisher of this book is not even Bonnegay.
22:25
Are we together now? Yes? In this Bible, demons spoke
22:31
in this Bible. God spoke in this Bible, animals spoke.
22:36
Are we together? In this Bible? Man spoke in the
22:40
depravity of their hearts in this Bible, Man spoke from
22:44
a standpoint of repentance. In this Bible, God spoke from
22:49
the standpoint of his strength and majesty. So what exactly
22:54
is the word of God? It is important that we
23:00
understand what the world of God is. What is the
23:03
world of God that is so important? The Bible says
23:08
all things happens at the instance of that world. What then,
23:14
is the word of God? But you see, even before
23:18
we begin to discuss the subject, please look on, please
23:21
pay attention, even before we begin to discuss the subject
23:25
of the world of God, our first part of God
23:29
is God himself. You see, if your study of scripture
23:35
and your pursuit of the knowledge of scripture is isolated
23:39
from the larger picture of trying to know God, study
23:43
of scripture will not profit you. The study of scripture
23:46
should be a derivative of a bigger appetite and a
23:50
bigger agenda, that is, to know God. It is the
23:55
passion to know God that now drives you to begin
23:59
to make reference to this material. Are we together now? Yes?
24:05
John seventeen, from verse three, this is the Lord's prayer.
24:09
Jesus is praying. He said, this is life eternal, that
24:13
they may know THEE, not just to know about THEE,
24:18
that they may know THEE, the only one true God,
24:22
and Jesus, whom thou hast sent so our highest pursuit.
24:28
Listen carefully. It's not just to study scripture. It's not
24:33
just to crime versus. It's not just to feel religious
24:36
about holding a book or an iPad that contains a
24:40
Christian material. The highest desire must be to know God himself.
24:49
There are many people who have read this book and
24:53
it did not change them because the desire was not
24:56
to know God. The desire was to find controversial statement
25:00
and accuse the faith work. There are people who have
25:04
studied this as part of their thesis for an educational certification.
25:10
Just because you open and study does not mean it
25:13
will profit you. The desire must be God himself. And
25:20
see the way it works in this kingdom is that
25:24
whatever else you seek, good or bad, if it rises
25:28
above your knowledge and your passion and your desire for God,
25:33
it is idolatry. If you seek annoint and above God,
25:39
it is idolatry. If you seek angels above God, it
25:43
is idolatry. You seek signs and wonders above God, these
25:47
are positive things. The jealousy of God does not allow
25:52
him to contest with anything at all. In your heart,
25:57
every other thing finds its credence when God is first
26:02
and God is priority. We see you together, so as
26:06
we discourse the idea of the world of God, it's
26:10
important for you to not limit your mind to just Okay,
26:14
let me lend this so that I can go and
26:16
get results. Let me lend this so that I can
26:19
administer healing. Those things are wonderful, but it starts with God.
26:23
The rule is in the beginning God. That must be
26:27
the formula that must be maintained in the beginning of
26:30
your spiritual pursuit. God not miracles, not anointed, not breakthroughs.
26:35
These things are not wrong. You've already seen God visiting
26:38
his people in the beginning. The accurate posture that makes
26:44
scripture to come a life and the understanding of scripture profitable,
26:50
is when your heart is on God, not Bible. When
26:54
your heart is on God not Heaven. When your heart
26:58
is on if you worship the throne that God is
27:00
sitting on his still idolatry. We don't worship the throne.
27:03
Is Him that sits on the throne. Are we together
27:11
because there are many believers who award adding they really
27:19
have passion for scripture, but the motivation behind it is
27:25
just to find the principles therein and obtain results that
27:28
are isolated from the knowledge of God. Eventually you will
27:33
meet with destruction on the way. Are we together? Unbelievers
27:40
without giving their lives to Christ can sit down under
27:44
a conference like this and learn the principles of the
27:48
kingdom and use those principles if we're refusing to acknowledge
27:52
a lordship of Christ, and it will work for them
27:55
because there is a dimension of God's power that is
27:57
invested in his lots and principles. They will not acknowledge
28:01
the God, but they will use his principles to get results.
28:05
Even if an unbrother goes to the farm to farm,
28:07
it will produce because the law of see time and
28:10
habits is still at work. It does not depend on
28:12
a relationship. It just depends on obedience to the principle.
28:17
So before we begin to discuss this, I have an
28:21
assignment to read. Direct your focus to him that sits
28:25
on the throne, not a book. From the standpoint of
28:31
Him who sits on the throne, we now begin to
28:33
follow the road map that he has created. So when
28:36
we search for scripture and we explore the knowledge of
28:40
the world, it is ultimately to the end that if
28:44
it revolves back to Him who sits upon the throne,
28:49
are we together? This is what makes the Christian experience profitable.
28:54
You will be surprised that a time can come in
28:57
your Christian experience where as far as spiritual activities are concerned,
29:02
you are not feeling in it, and yet your relationship
29:05
is not growing. Your knowledge of scripture is increasing. But
29:12
because your motivation was never him, Your motivation was just principles.
29:17
Principles are powerful, what principles are secondary. It is in
29:21
the beginning God. All the people who wrote this, they
29:29
did not start by looking for a book. They started
29:32
by pursuing a man. It was their pursuit of that
29:36
man that led to the book that we now read.
29:39
Right after an encounter, John, you have now encountered me
29:44
now right the words that have come from that encounter.
29:47
They are faithful and they are true. Are we blessed?
29:56
So it must be God. And when I I say God,
30:00
I'm speaking to a global audience. There are people connecting
30:05
from all over. When we say God, we refer to
30:09
the God of the Bible, the Almighty God, the creator
30:13
of the heavens and the earth, the one who came
30:18
and manifested as the Word made flesh, Jesus. In the beginning, God,
30:25
whilst you're seated, I want you to pray, prayer. Lord.
30:28
Everything that is not You and has been exalted in
30:33
my life, I dethrone it. In this conference, I readdirect
30:36
and reorder my passion more than Bible study, more than
30:42
prayer meeting. All this are a means to an end.
30:46
The end is you. The end of a believers journey
30:49
is not prayer. The end of a believers journey is
30:52
not Bible study. The end of a believers journey is
30:55
not worship. The end of a believers journey is not giving.
30:59
The end of a believers Johnny is the knowledge of God.
31:02
All those things become keys that help us to know
31:06
Him and then excel in life. Are you praying? Lift
31:09
your voice and pray to know you genuinely, sincerely, to
31:17
know you, to have an encounter with you in the
31:36
name of Jesus. Philippi and chapter three and verse ten.
31:39
Let's hurry up Philippian Chapter three and verse ten. Paul
31:43
mentoring the church and Philippi. He was so broken by
31:46
his passion to know God. Here's what he said that
31:50
I may know him. This was a man who wrote
31:52
two thirds of the New Testament. This was one who,
31:55
even before his conversion, he was a phari See did
31:58
you see as a phari See? He was not bankrupt
32:00
of scripture. He had scripture, but he did not know
32:04
the God of the Bible. It was whilst he was
32:06
going to persecute the church that he had an encounter.
32:11
The Bible says, he met this light that we call Jesus.
32:15
Speaker 7: Light of the world. You stepped down into darkness. Oh
32:22
and Miles led mees, you're.
32:29
Speaker 1: The light of my life. You stepped down to the lives.
32:39
Lend me a man who was full of scripture and
32:45
yet did not know God. You could not stand with
32:48
Paul to debate on scripture. He was a Pharisee. Did
32:53
you know that the scribes and the Pharisees, the condition
32:56
for them to be scribes and Pharisees, among other things,
33:00
is that they had to learn the Five Books of Moses.
33:02
They knew the toler of Art. Even Satan no scripture.
33:07
But does it doesn't mean he has a relationship with God.
33:11
The blind knowledge of scripture does not automatically equate to
33:14
a relationship. It is written Satan is speaking. He starts
33:22
with a relationship, not a narcheological such or scripture. So
33:30
Paul is having an encounter. And he looked at him
33:33
and said, Saul, Saul, why persecutors thout me? He had
33:40
memory verses in his head, but there was no relationship.
33:45
Who are thou lord, he said? He said, I am
33:48
the one who you are persecuting. Even though you seem
33:51
to have information that talks about me, you have not
33:54
met me. He said, you cannot kick against the bricks,
33:57
And that began the job of these ignorant but knowledgeable
34:04
pharisee who would later become an apostle of the Lamb.
34:08
Then now please go back to chapter three and verse ten.
34:11
Now you will understand what he's said. Philippians, Chapter three
34:14
and verse ten. Yess what he said? That I may
34:17
know him. I have known about him, I have known
34:22
the books that were written of him. But now I
34:25
want to know him and the power of his resurrection
34:30
and the fellowship of his suffering being made conformable onto
34:35
his death, that I may know him. Please write this down.
34:39
There are four blablic club platforms, four biblical platforms. I'll
34:44
just touch on it and then really go into the
34:49
matter for tonight. Wherever we stop, will pray and continue.
34:53
There are four biblical platforms that have been provided to
34:59
help men know God. Four. Number one. The first biblical
35:06
platform that can help any man know God is scripture.
35:10
Write it down, please, Scripture. That means you can see
35:16
someone who maybe is an unbeliever or an atheist, and
35:21
then you lead that person to Christ. You can give
35:24
the person scripture and with the correct understanding, he can
35:29
use scripture to know God. Number two. I just thought
35:36
to touch on that very quickly. Number two, you know
35:41
God through his names. The names of God are a
35:48
capture of the different dimensions of God's power and ability.
35:51
You see, when you study scripture, you learn the character
35:54
of God and you lend his methodologies. When you study scripture,
35:59
scripture reveals character of God more than just versus, more
36:03
than parables, more than stories. You familiarize yourself with the
36:07
character of God. If you are a sound student of scripture,
36:11
you should be able to discern immediately that this is
36:15
not how God behaves. Because scripture opens you up to
36:19
the character of God. It opens you up to the
36:22
modus of RANDI the methodologies of God, how God acts.
36:28
Number two, the names of God. Every time they saw
36:32
the mighty hand of God, they captured that experience in
36:36
the name. And every time they wanted to see that
36:38
dimension of God again, they would call that name. So
36:41
he ischyrah Chyreh will not heal you. He will only provide.
36:46
Rapha will not provide. He will only heal seeking righteousness.
36:52
Are we together now? So the names of God are
36:55
a revelation of different dimensions in him. Is that who
36:59
should like hell? Pharaoh had sent me, and then he said,
37:02
I am that I am. He said, go and tell Pharaoh,
37:06
I AM has sent you. The third way, the third
37:12
platform for knowing God is the revelation of the passing Jesus.
37:19
Jesus Hebrews chapter one. When you read from verse one
37:23
and three, the Bible says, God, who is saundry times
37:26
and die verse manner, speak to us in time past
37:30
by the fathers and the prophets. He say had in
37:33
these days spoken on to us by his son, whom
37:37
he had appointed to be heir over all things, by
37:40
whom also he made the worlds. He's making reference to
37:43
John one. One. Now now verse three, he says. Verse
37:47
three says, who've been the brightness of his glory and
37:51
the express eMates upholding all things by the world of
37:55
his power? Are you seeing that now? So Jesus came.
37:58
Listen please a believer's convention, Jesus did not just come
38:04
to die alone. There are three major assignments of Jesus
38:10
when he showed up on the earth. Number one, Jesus
38:14
came as a correction of our perception about God. Until
38:19
Jesus showed up, there were many things about God that
38:24
the saints and even the prophets did not understand. They
38:27
credited things, anything that was superhuman, they credited it to God.
38:33
And so Jesus came as a correction. He came as
38:36
a marking script, as a reference. Everything the Father said
38:41
he was. You could compare it and see captured in
38:44
the life of Jesus, so that by looking onto Jesus
38:49
we may know the Father. I am the Way, the Truth,
38:52
and the life. He says, No man comment to the Father,
38:56
but by me. So no matter what it is that
38:59
I think I know about the Father, I look on
39:02
to Jesus to correct my perceptions. Number two. Jesus came
39:06
as perfect theology. He came as the pattern man, a
39:10
portrait of what can happen to a man when you
39:14
work in alignment with the spirit of God. Jesus came
39:21
as a representation of the Father's desire what we should become.
39:25
He says, as he is so awa. He came to
39:29
show us that we can work in victory. He came
39:33
to show us that the excellency of the power of
39:37
God is a reality, and he demonstrated it in his earthwork.
39:41
And then, thirdly, and finally, and more importantly, he came
39:45
as the substitutionally sacrifice, the one who would become the
39:49
mediator of the new Covenant. He came as a revelation
39:52
of the Father's love, demonstrated in and through his death,
39:57
his burial, his resurrection, his assession, his enthronement. He did
40:07
not just come to reconcile man alone. He came to
40:11
correct our perception about God. Imagine with me, for instance,
40:16
Let's say there is a gentleman who is a CEO,
40:21
and most of the staff that work in that company,
40:23
they've not been able to see the man. Anyone who
40:26
claims to know the man can tell you things and
40:29
say the man directed you. Is that true? But when
40:31
the man sends a special envoy, that man comes as
40:35
the most accurate representation of the character of that man.
40:39
So you can use the person and compare. Let me
40:42
give you an instance, very humorously. Many of you would
40:44
have noticed I'm not on social media, and yet there
40:48
are probably tens of social media pages daily people open
40:53
as me, and sadly they can ask people for money everywhere.
40:57
Just take advantage of the fact that people like this
40:59
man of God. Now you are only defroud of if
41:02
you do not know me. When you know me, for instance,
41:07
you can George, is this the character of this person?
41:11
Are you get to what I'm saying now? So Jesus
41:13
came as a correction to what we think or thought
41:18
the Father was, because when you read the Bible outside
41:24
of the manifestation of Jesus, your conclusion would be God,
41:27
you are mysterious. Sometimes it looks like you are kind,
41:31
sometimes it looks like you are wicked. Sometimes we read
41:34
scripture and we don't understand you. And Jesus said, leave
41:37
the confusion. Watch my life. I am a every thing
41:40
you see me do is what the Father does. Whatever
41:44
you did not see me do. Don't let anybody tell
41:46
you that's what the Father does. He came as a
41:49
correction of our perception. So, for instance, if you believe
41:54
that it's God's will for people to remain in sickness
41:57
and in poverty and in failure, you don't need to
42:00
create a debate. Look at Jesus. What did Jesus do
42:03
when sick people come? He did not leave one to
42:06
go sick, So immediately we know the sicknesses of the devil.
42:10
What did Jesus do when poor people came? When poor
42:14
people come to it, when they came around at the
42:16
crusade after teaching, he did not leave them hungry. What
42:20
happened when they tried the fishermen, the businessmen who were
42:24
trying to catch fish. So immediately you know that the
42:30
Father is not only interested in your eternal salvation, He's
42:33
interested in your well being. Jesus the correction of our
42:38
perception about the Father. Are we blessed? And then the
42:44
last platform to know God is called our experiences? Job
42:49
Chapter forty twe verse five, Job forty t one, verse five.
42:54
This introduction is very important. I have heard of thee
42:58
by the hearing of the But now my eye see it.
43:03
D There is a dimension of the knowledge of God
43:06
that only your experience can minister to you. You can
43:13
ask every man of God or anyone who has lived
43:15
long enough. There is a way you sing and say, Lord,
43:19
you are faithful. You are not just saying it because
43:21
you read it in Scripture. There is a history. Your
43:23
life has a track record of it. So when you
43:26
are speaking, you are speaking from a standpoint of conviction.
43:31
It was his faithfulness that gave you your firstborn. It
43:33
was his faithfulness that delivered you from an accident. You
43:37
fell at sea, and yet he delivered you. So when
43:40
you are saying God is faithful, you are not reciting
43:42
a chorus that church people say. You have an experience. Scripture,
43:51
the word of God now, the names of God, number three,
43:59
Jesus manifest in the flesh, number four, your experience. These
44:04
are the four biblical platforms given to help us know God.
44:11
So this entire conference, this world conference, now is speaking
44:17
one of those platforms. Are you seeing now? So when
44:21
we explore Scripture, it is not only helping us to
44:25
know God, but helping us to know how to use
44:30
the truth of God's word to excel to reign. But
44:36
our attention will never be pegged at just reigning and ruling.
44:40
It is the knowledge of God a weekly on that. Now,
44:43
please pray while you are seated, Lord, reveal your word
44:46
to me. Reveal your word to me. Open my eyes
44:52
to Tea. Reveal your word. Sheila Cato escape n Dakhato's theater.
45:05
Reveal your word in the name of Jesus, Allelujah. So
45:10
write this down, please, Number one. The word of God
45:15
is God. What is the word of God? The Word
45:18
of God is God an expression of himself. We read
45:22
John one, verse one. In the beginning was the word.
45:25
The word was with God, The word was God. Revelations
45:29
nineteen thirteen. John was caught up in the Isle of
45:33
Patmos nineteen thirteen Revelation. The Bible says he so one
45:37
who sat upon a white horse. He said, and he
45:40
was clothed nineteen verse thirteen. Just leave verse thirteen nineteen
45:45
and verse thirteen. He was clothed with a vesture, tripped
45:49
in blood. And his name is called the Word of God,
45:54
the original name of the one you know. And you
45:57
call Jesus his name from the foundations of the earth.
46:02
Worse and ease. The word of God, the Word of
46:08
God his original name the Word of God. So the
46:17
Word of God is an expression of God himself. Number two,
46:22
What is the word of God? The Word of God
46:25
is a revelation of his thoughts and his character. The
46:32
Word of God is a revelation. Every time you talk
46:36
about the Word of God, you mean a compendium of
46:40
God's thoughts and character. Isaiah fifty five, from verse eight
46:45
and nine. Isaiah fifty five, verse eight and nine. Please
46:50
pay attention, Isaiah fifty five, for my thoughts are not
46:55
your thoughts. Neither are your wayte my way saying the Lord.
46:59
Verse nine, it says for us, the heavens are higher
47:03
than the earth. So are my ways higher than your ways,
47:07
and my thoughts higher than your thoughts. Now look or
47:09
please the word word w r D. Now, the Old
47:18
Testament was written largely in Hebrew, and then the New
47:23
Testament was written in a combination of Greek and Aramaic,
47:27
and then with a little of Latin. Are we together? Now?
47:30
The word the Greek word for word w r D
47:35
is the word logos. Logos means the thoughts or the
47:40
intention of a man that seeks to find expression. Please
47:46
understand this now, The essence of that word word, it
47:50
means the thoughts of a man that seeks to find expression.
47:55
So when we say the word of God, we not
47:58
only mean God himself, but we mean the thoughts the
48:02
intentions of God. When we call Jesus Christ the Word
48:07
of God, we mean that he is the living expression
48:10
of the will and the intention of the Father. Everything
48:13
the Father desired and desires was lived out through Jesus Christ.
48:19
The Word of God is a revelation of the thoughts
48:22
of God. The Word of God is a revelation of
48:26
the intentions of God. That means, if you want to
48:30
know what God is thinking, and if you want to
48:32
know how God thinks, if you want to know what
48:35
God intends for you, you can go to the Word
48:38
of God, and you are safe whatever you find there.
48:41
Can I tell you some of the things he has
48:43
said Jeremiah twenty ninety eleven. I know the thoughts that
48:46
I think towards you, say the Lord. They are thoughts
48:49
of peace and not of evil. He says, to give
48:52
you a future and an expected end. This is what
48:56
God thinks about me. This is what God thinks about me.
49:03
As a Chapter sixty one to three, our eyes shine
49:07
your light has come. The glory of the Lord has
49:10
reason upon you. Verse two says darkness covers the earth,
49:14
gross darkness the people. But upon you the glory of
49:17
the Lord shall be seen. This is what God is
49:19
thinking about me. Verse three, Hallelujah, he says, gentiles will
49:23
come to your light. These are the thoughts of God
49:25
concerning you and your kings. To the brightness of your rising.
49:29
That's what the Bible says. For your shame, you shall
49:32
receive double he says. Where you have been deserted so
49:34
that no man would pass through you, you become an
49:37
eternal excellency, a joy of many generations. Thou shall be
49:41
the head and not the tale. These are the thoughts
49:44
of God. So when I studied the Word of God,
49:47
I am accromatizing my mind. What does God think about me?
49:52
How can I enter his mind? To know? The Word
49:55
of God is a compendium of his thoughts and his intentions.
50:01
You cannot be a student of the world and be
50:04
in doubt about God's plan for your life. No, his
50:08
plans are clear. The reason why we doubt what God
50:11
wants for our lives. Is it God's will for me
50:14
to be sick? Is it God's will for me to
50:16
be healthy? Is it God's will for me to prosper?
50:18
Is it God's will for me to fail? All those
50:20
questions are a diagnosis showing that you do not know
50:24
the word of God. Because in the world of God
50:29
are his thoughts. There are many people who write wills,
50:38
wil l the right wills. That means, if I pass on,
50:43
this is how my estate and my properties should be shared.
50:46
Is that true? If you Usually the man would not
50:49
tell the family members, but you will capture it in
50:52
a will. So when you carry that will, you are
50:54
no longer in doubt. For instance, it passes on and
50:58
there's all kinds of confusion. This land is mine. Ah ah,
51:02
Just go and bring the will, and it is clearly
51:04
stated there this one should be given to this The
51:08
word of God is his will. That he has left
51:11
is a revelation of what he has listened carefully contains
51:18
his thoughts. I know what he has said about me
51:24
his will. I know what he's thinking about me. Now,
51:27
no body can preach me into believing something else. He
51:30
has told me. I'm the head and not the tale.
51:33
It's not an opinion, it's not a suggestion. It's not
51:35
a tribal White, saying, this is his thoughts. This is
51:38
what he's thinking concerning me. No we pant fashion, he said,
51:44
Whippons don't just come there fashion. No we pant fashioned
51:50
against me, shall prosper, That's what he's thinking. The Psteronomy
52:00
twenty eight from verse one and two. And it shall
52:02
come to pass. If thou shalt diligently happen to the
52:05
voice of the Lord to do and observe all that
52:07
I command you this day, then you shall be exalted
52:10
above the nations of the earth. And this blessing shall
52:13
come upon you and overtake you the thoughts of God.
52:17
For my life, but my head, as thou exalted, like
52:21
the horn of a unicorn, I am annointed with fresh
52:24
oil his thoughts for me. Are you getting what I'm
52:27
teaching you now? So you begin to compare what you believe,
52:32
or what culture has told you, or what people who
52:35
are not born again have told you, you compare it
52:38
with the mind of God. We buy into the mind
52:41
of God by opening up ourselves to the world of God.
52:47
Why do we study the word of God? Why are
52:49
we so passionate about the Word of God? Because we
52:52
desire to know what he intends for us, and if
52:58
it does not look like what we are seeing, we
53:01
have the ability to petition Heaven and say, Father, you
53:04
are thinking something else, and my life is reflecting something else.
53:09
It is if you do not know the word of God,
53:11
what are you praying? Then? Because the word of God
53:15
becomes the legal basis for you approaching heaven. There is
53:20
a disparity between what you are thinking and what is happening.
53:24
Something is threatening your majesty and your might. As mighty
53:28
as you are, you are thinking good, and yet I'm
53:30
seeing evil in my life, and God says there is
53:33
need to correct it. Someone is changing the equation somewhere,
53:37
and he said, an enemy has done this. Now you
53:42
can pray and engage all the forces that were given
53:46
to believers to command victory through intelligence, because you have
53:50
detected by knowledge that something is wrong. If you do
53:56
not know what he has said, you will not even
53:58
know what is wrong with your own life. Listen, if
54:02
we siting here right now, and there is a rule
54:04
in this place that every time we got that here,
54:08
a bottle of minerals, for instance, or soft drink, and
54:13
maybe morphins or meat pie should be given to everyone.
54:18
You are aware. If you sit down here and you
54:21
count two three hours and nothing is come, you have
54:25
a right based on that knowledge to find out who
54:28
is responsible. Because I am aware. But if you are
54:31
not aware, you can sit down there for a long time.
54:35
They know not neither will they understand. They work on
54:39
in darkness. Why because they do not know the thoughts
54:42
of God. So the devil can come and tell you
54:45
it is the will of God for you to be
54:47
a mediocre It is the will of God for you
54:49
to do ministry as if God did not call you.
54:52
It is the will of God for you to fail.
54:54
It's the will of God for death to swip everyone
54:57
in the family. And you say, it's true that ignore
55:00
is because you do not know who God is. So
55:02
the word of God explains to us the thoughts and
55:06
the intents of God. Are we blessed? Number three, the
55:21
word of God is a revelation of his system of operation.
55:26
Please pay attention. We've discussed three things. Now, that the
55:30
word of God is God an expression of himself. Number two,
55:34
that the word of God is a revelation of his
55:37
thoughts and his character. Now, number three, the word of
55:42
God is a revelation of his system of operation, his ways,
55:47
his methodology. Psalm twenty five from verse four and five.
55:54
Palm twenty five from verse four and five. Show me
56:00
thy ways, Oh God, he says, teach me thy paths.
56:04
Next verse lead me in thy truth and teach me
56:09
for now at the God of my salvation, on to deal.
56:13
Will I wait all day long? He said, teach me
56:15
thy ways, teach me thy way Psalms one or three,
56:20
verse seven. Please give it to us quickly Psalms one
56:23
O three and verse seven. He made known his ways
56:28
onto Moses. He made known his ways onto Moses. Now
56:35
please look up. I had the privilege of enjoying a
56:39
wonderful meal when we arrived, wonderful meal, and by the
56:44
way it was, it was. I think one day I
56:46
would return here by myself and invite myself just not
56:50
to come and preach, but to come and patronize the
56:53
kind of wonderful meal and the juices that we've enjoyed.
56:57
But not watch this. It's one thing for me to
57:01
enjoy it. I don't know how it was made. I
57:04
only knew it was good. The trouble is that they're
57:08
the person who made it is not there. I'm in trouble.
57:12
If that person really wants to help me more than
57:15
giving me the food and the juices, they can call
57:18
me to the kitchen and say, let me show you
57:20
how it is made. Now, I'm not afraid of my
57:23
results because the secret of reproducing it is now with me.
57:27
God does not only want to give you miracles, science
57:29
and wonders. He wants to call it to the inner
57:32
chambers of the spirit and say, let me show you
57:34
how miracles happen. Let me show you how results happen
57:38
in this kingdom. Listen, look up. Do you know why
57:41
stories in the Bible are so long and every detail
57:45
is captured. It's not just the result God wants you
57:48
to see. He wants you to study how the results happen.
57:53
The things that are written at four time, the Bible
57:55
says they are for our lending, so that we, through
57:59
the comfort of scripture, might find hope. And hope makes
58:03
not a shame. As a man of God, I can
58:07
pray for you. Be healed, be blessed, May your chance
58:10
to expand, May you increase. You will be afraid of
58:13
that result, and then you will not be able to
58:16
mentor and raise orders because you don't even understand the
58:18
dynamics of that result. So the word of God teaches
58:21
us the methodologists of the kingdom, like a chef calling
58:25
you into the kitchen and say, let me teach you
58:27
how this mysterious food that you see. Let me break
58:30
it down. First, you start with water. Don't worry whether
58:34
I'm right or wrong. Second, you start with whatever. Third,
58:38
you start with this and then leave this for five minutes.
58:41
Then you make it, make a few mistakes, he said,
58:43
no problem, let's do it again. They are not just
58:45
teaching you to eat. They're teaching you how to cook. Well,
58:49
there are women here, even if they want to cook
58:51
for one thousand people. You are not afraid. Because of mastery.
58:56
You understand how to do this thing. You are not afraid.
59:02
Listen to me. We become matured and we become masters
59:05
in this kingdom when we are able to handle the
59:08
world of truth, when we understand the dynamics of how
59:11
results happen in the kingdom. So if someone comes for counseling,
59:16
I say, ma, short believer, not just a man of God.
59:20
As a match short believer, you can immediately diagnose his
59:23
problem and you can recommend it like a doctor. When
59:26
you are speaking to a doctor. Doctor, I started shivering
59:29
this morning, then I had headache, then joined plains. He
59:32
starts laughing, because there is mastery he has. He was
59:35
not just taught how to administer drugs. He was taken
59:38
to a class and shown that this, symptoms mean this.
59:42
So while you are talking, he can even be making
59:44
a call while he's listening to you. That's how much
59:46
he has gained mastery. And he would recommend a drug
59:49
and not call you up to check up on you.
59:50
He's shaw that you'll be fine two days after taking
59:56
that drug, he said. Doctor, he said, don't worry, just
59:59
keep taking it, and after five days you are running
1:00:02
around playing football mastray. When you understand this, someone can
1:00:06
come and say, poverty is destroy my family and now
1:00:09
you are a blessing. You will say, I know. Carry
1:00:12
your pen and paper, write the following scriptures. I know
1:00:15
what is wrong, and I know how. You are not
1:00:18
a blessing. If you do not know the ways of God,
1:00:21
you can't be able to help people in a methodical way.
1:00:24
Mentorship is based on this body of truth that lives believers.
1:00:29
There is a methodical approach to the growth and the
1:00:33
maturity of the saints This is what doctrine is all about.
1:00:37
The cost curriculum that makes for the growth of the
1:00:40
saints is called doctrine. Are you learning anything tonight, Apostle.
1:00:53
I know God works miracles, but I don't know why.
1:00:56
I don't see it in my life. The Word of
1:00:58
God can teach you how miracles happen. Apostle, I know
1:01:04
God favors, but I've never seen this favor in my life.
1:01:08
The Word of God has come. Don't look at the result.
1:01:12
Let me show you how it happened. I know the
1:01:14
Word of God can impart fit, but I don't know
1:01:17
how it is. Then he says, let me use a figure.
1:01:20
Look on to Abraham, your father, on the study Him
1:01:24
on the study Esther to lend favor, on the study
1:01:27
Abraham to lend faith, on the study Elijah to lend prayer.
1:01:33
There are portraits that lead to exact spiritual results. You
1:01:37
can study them and len Apostle, what I have is
1:01:43
not enough. I know that what I have is not enough.
1:01:47
You go to the world of God. What did Jesus
1:01:49
do with what is not enough? Number one? He gave thanks,
1:01:52
So stop complaining any anytime you complain about what is
1:01:57
not enough? You have killed the potential for increase. Are
1:02:01
you seeing how the Word of God called us? Now, oh, apostle,
1:02:05
there's no I don't have this enough. No no, no, no no, no,
1:02:09
give thanks, give, thanks Lord. I thank you that I
1:02:13
even have the feast for one of my child I
1:02:17
know that I need for five of them. But you
1:02:19
are the one who has given me this one. And
1:02:22
I am grateful. And God says this is for me.
1:02:25
Now you are ready to turn your fife, loaf and
1:02:27
your two fish to feed five thousand people. It's formula.
1:02:33
So those who are thankful, dancing and celebrating God every time,
1:02:39
they may not be anything at Oh my, yeah, they're rejoicing.
1:02:42
You see them testifying miracles upon miracles, because they are
1:02:45
engaging an exact spiritual formula. Please look at me. One
1:02:49
of the major reasons why we press for the Word
1:02:53
of God is because we want to know how God operates.
1:03:00
You're a man of God. Here you are trusting God
1:03:01
for increase. Maybe in your church you are trusting God
1:03:07
for increase. Greater souls. You go back, how did increase
1:03:11
happen in the kingdom? The formula again? And I if
1:03:15
I be lifted up from the earth. I will draw
1:03:19
Paul can plant, Apollo, ca and water, but increases exclusively
1:03:24
of God. So the more Jesus is revealed and lifted
1:03:30
in your life and in your congregation, then you see
1:03:34
that he will begin to draw men. Have you seen
1:03:36
how this thing works? Question? Now that you are seated here,
1:03:41
if you look at your life, you see the gaps
1:03:44
in your results. You must go to the Bible. I
1:03:48
am I seem not to be prayer for my prayer
1:03:52
life seems to have died. Don't feel discourage. You go
1:03:55
to scripture. You such, where did resurrection happen? As far
1:04:00
someone's prayer life is concerned, I don't know if prayer
1:04:03
is powerful. Go to scripture and find out two instances
1:04:08
to show you the power of prayer. Number one Isaiah
1:04:11
eighteen hes Akiah, who turned a verdict God's own verdict.
1:04:17
Not body in that rendition was fake. The prophet was real,
1:04:21
God was real, The verdict was true, Yet prayer changed it.
1:04:25
So is prayer powerful? Yes, sir? Next expression look eighteen
1:04:30
from verse one, he spake a parable to the end
1:04:32
that man ought always to pray and not to faint.
1:04:35
Seen one. It talks about a wicked man. There was
1:04:41
in a city a widow, a George. May you never
1:04:46
made this kind of George. A George who does not
1:04:49
fear God. You can't say God sent me to you
1:04:53
and does not regard man. You can't say. This man
1:04:55
said you should know. And then the Bible now talks
1:04:58
of a widow. A widow is a a woman who
1:05:00
had the system of defense has been taken away. So
1:05:03
it's contrasting two people. To show you the power of prayer.
1:05:08
She went to him and said, avenge me my adversary,
1:05:11
and the Bible says for a time he would not.
1:05:15
And then here's what the man said. By her continual coming,
1:05:18
her importunity, he said, though I do not fear God
1:05:21
nor regard man, but this woman will weary me. That
1:05:25
means when you pray, there is an effect in the spirit,
1:05:28
even though you are not Seid, the strongest of forces,
1:05:31
when you are consistent in prayer. Eventually, the Bible talks
1:05:38
about Elijah in James chapter five began to read from
1:05:42
verse sixteen down that Elijah was a man of like passion,
1:05:45
but he prayed earnestly and changed climatic conditions. It was
1:05:50
not a parable. It actually happened. Now by those scriptures,
1:05:56
you now know that prayer is powerful. So when you
1:05:58
go to pray, you are not hoping. Will God answer?
1:06:02
Can you really change this situation? The world of God
1:06:05
has shown you how God works. You may be in
1:06:09
a pit and a situation. Maybe you are in debt,
1:06:11
you are in trouble. Can God deliver go to the
1:06:16
world to lend his ways. The worst kind of trouble
1:06:20
that a man can find in this life is to
1:06:23
be in the bellue of a fish. And the Bible
1:06:27
says there was a human being like that one day
1:06:30
on it As we sit that here, someone was one
1:06:33
day in the bellue of the fish, and he said,
1:06:35
I will still not dying. I can determine my destiny.
1:06:38
What else is left when you're in the bellue of
1:06:40
the fish? For you, you've not entered that. You are
1:06:42
still Britain, you are still standing, and yet you are hopeless.
1:06:45
He man, it's already in the bellue of the fish.
1:06:47
Digestion is about to start. Jonah said, fish, you are joking.
1:06:51
You don't know who created me. I may not understand
1:06:54
the digestive system, but I assure you it's not me.
1:06:57
You will swallow Jonah's story. It teaches us that there
1:07:00
is nothing called hopeless, nothing called hopeless. One of the
1:07:12
three Hebrew boys who were thrown in fire and their
1:07:16
chains were loosed, and the appearance of the fourth was
1:07:19
like the son of the Living God. And the Bible
1:07:22
says these were men who the fire had no power on.
1:07:28
What of acts Chapter twelve, you read about the story
1:07:31
of Peter, bound Hand and Shane after they killed James,
1:07:36
But prayers was offered of the church onto God for him,
1:07:41
and Bible says a miracle began to happen. An angel
1:07:45
came and opened all those doors. There is no situation
1:07:52
called hopeless. You see, when you study scripture, you lend
1:07:57
the ways of God, and you know that God, it's
1:08:01
not only a mighty God, but there is how he
1:08:03
delivers you. Follow what they did at midnight. Paul and
1:08:08
Silas prayed. They did not pray when they were outside
1:08:11
of the prison. So there's no excuse for not praying. Lord,
1:08:14
I'm depressing. And they prayed with chains. They even sang.
1:08:19
You don't pray and sing when you are delivered. You
1:08:22
prayer sing to be delivered. I'll sing onto the Lord
1:08:29
for years.
1:08:30
Speaker 7: Try your gloriously the horses and his riders.
1:08:36
Speaker 1: Have been thrown into the sea. That's the song of
1:08:41
Miriam when they saw the mighty hand of God, a
1:08:46
pil out of cloud by day, fire by night, red sea,
1:08:51
at the instance of his word, and Miriam said, no,
1:08:55
we can't just pass. Let us write this song. After
1:08:58
this experience, I will sing unto the Lord for years,
1:09:05
try young gloriously. The Horsey san Its riders have been
1:09:11
drawn into the sea. So when someone says your family
1:09:16
will never rise, and you look at him and sing
1:09:18
the same song, I'll sing unto the Lord, for he
1:09:23
has try You'm gloriously.
1:09:26
Speaker 7: The Horsey san Is riders have been drawn into the sea.
1:09:36
Speaker 1: The word of God a manifestation of God himself. The
1:09:43
word of God a revelation of the thoughts and the
1:09:47
intents of God. The word of God as a revelation
1:09:53
of his methodologies, his ways, the way results are producing
1:10:02
the kingdom, the way influence happens, the way prosperity happens. Apostle,
1:10:08
I'm trusting God to lift me to write to a
1:10:11
higher level of influence for the sake of the kingdom.
1:10:13
Go to the Bible. Then, how did influence happen. Study
1:10:17
the life of Joseph. How did a prisoner suddenly become
1:10:21
a prime minister? How did a slave girl called Hardasa
1:10:24
suddenly become a queen? Study their lives find the keys
1:10:28
for growth there. Listen, every time you study scriptures to
1:10:33
learn the ways of God, there are three things you
1:10:35
are going to find. Number one promises, Number two principles,
1:10:42
Number three prophecies. You must find these three as you
1:10:48
study scripture. Number one again promises God's commitment towards you.
1:10:53
Number two principles, the keys of the kingdom that are
1:10:58
responsible for the very us dimensions of results that translate
1:11:02
into our dominion. And then number three prophecy, a fond
1:11:06
knowledge of the things that will happen, to give us
1:11:09
hope and to give us assurance. Because if our hope,
1:11:12
it's only in this life. The Bible declares that we are,
1:11:15
of all men, most miserable. It's God helping us tonight.
1:11:22
Let me round up. Therefore, as we pray by revealing,
1:11:28
maybe we can just take one for tonight. There are
1:11:32
four things, four dimensions of power that are contained in
1:11:36
the world of God. The Word of God is powerful,
1:11:40
but there are four dimensions of power at least contained
1:11:46
in the world of God. Are you ready pleased? We
1:11:48
may just have one and then we'll pray it's God
1:11:51
blessing us tonight. The first dimension of power that is
1:11:57
contained in the world of God is the power to
1:12:00
create Hebrews eleven, verse three Coasubrakatabadi. To create from the
1:12:10
ex definition means to make something out of nothing. To
1:12:14
create from the realm of the spirit means to transport
1:12:17
realities and make them manifest. Hear the creative power of
1:12:23
God's word Hebrews eleven, verse three. Through faith, we understand
1:12:29
that the worlds were framed. That means they had their
1:12:33
physical expression by the Word of God, so that the
1:12:37
things which were not made, which were made seen were
1:12:43
not made of things which do appear. That means the
1:12:45
raw material of the things we see today, they came
1:12:50
from the realm of the Spirit. The word of God
1:12:57
has power to create. John Chapter one and verse three.
1:13:03
John chapter one, verse three. We have looked at the
1:13:06
world of what the world of God is. Now we're
1:13:08
looking at the dimensions of power. There are four dimensions
1:13:12
of power contained in the world of God. Number one
1:13:16
is the power to create. John one three. All things someone,
1:13:20
say all things one more time. Please shout to say
1:13:23
all things, all things. Your finance is part of all things.
1:13:30
Listen to me, your family is part of all things.
1:13:34
Anything the world of God cannot make cannot be made.
1:13:39
Anything the world of God cannot make cannot be made.
1:13:43
The Bible says all things were made by Him and
1:13:46
without him, without him means outside of his influence, was
1:13:51
not anything made that was made. So when they look
1:13:56
at you and say how did you rise, you know
1:13:58
the answer. The word of God. There is the lifting
1:14:02
power of his world. Listen to me in the name
1:14:06
of Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God. I
1:14:08
speak to someone here the things that your destiny needs
1:14:12
that have not yet manifested by the power of the world.
1:14:17
I decree and declare. May you see them begin to
1:14:20
appear in your life. Lissen them. The word of God
1:14:28
can create, It can make what has no business happening
1:14:33
in your life to happen. Saul had no business becoming
1:14:42
a prophet. Saul had no business receiving bread from visitors.
1:14:47
But a word came from God through a prophet. You
1:14:52
will be on your way going. You will find three
1:14:55
men holding to a loaf of bread. They bought that
1:14:58
bread to go home with it. Because the world is
1:15:01
upon your life. They will bow to you and give
1:15:04
you the word of God. Can create. Listen, strip every
1:15:15
man of anything, he has, his houses, casts, everything, but
1:15:19
give him the word of God, and say go. That
1:15:22
man did not lose as he is going from all
1:15:27
over the head whatever his destiny needs the word of God.
1:15:32
Like a magnet. You don't pick needles one by one.
1:15:37
That's too laborious. Find a powerful magnet. Pass it on
1:15:41
the ground. Everything that is magnetic must follow it. That's
1:15:46
what happens to you when the word of God is
1:15:49
upon your life. Thank you. When the word of God
1:15:53
is upon your life, immediately listen carefully everything at all
1:16:00
that should be for life and godliness. So this how
1:16:05
it starts. Come. Can I use you, my brother? Watch this.
1:16:09
This gentleman may have come from a family with no advantage,
1:16:14
a family with no lifting. Can anything good come out
1:16:18
of this family? Then he sits down, and as the
1:16:21
world of God is coming, he does not even know
1:16:23
what is happening to him. As he begins to move.
1:16:25
Favor meets him on the way, Lifting meets him on
1:16:29
the way. Destiny to help us meet him on the way.
1:16:32
Three years of sitting with the world, he turns work out.
1:16:35
We said, where did you get them from? The world
1:16:37
of God brought them? Looking for those things by themselves
1:16:43
will be a journey of frustration. One thing is needful,
1:16:47
matter matter, you are worried and offended by this. One
1:16:51
thing is needful. If you can sit at the Master's table.
1:16:57
The word of God exhibits magnetic properties. It's on you,
1:17:03
and while you are roaming around, find a way of
1:17:10
believing what I have to say. It's true. The word
1:17:15
of God can change you. In ancient times, when fathers
1:17:19
wanted to bless their children, they didn't bless them with
1:17:23
physical things. They would those they give physical things to,
1:17:27
where those who they did not consider important. So they'll say, okay,
1:17:30
take this, take that. Then they'll call the sons inside
1:17:33
and say, look, if I give you physical things, I'm
1:17:36
a wicked father. I give you something God. The person
1:17:42
will go and return back with cattle, return back with plenty.
1:17:47
The word of God. Everything that must appear in your life.
1:17:54
I'm standing in the name of Jesus, and I'm speaking
1:17:58
to you everything that you need for your spiritual life,
1:18:03
for your finances. You have prayed, you have done all
1:18:07
you know to do. I stand in the name of Jesus,
1:18:10
whose I am and who sent me here? I declare
1:18:13
some of you even before tomorrow, May it appe in
1:18:16
your life. Please see down that's round them Collosians one sixteen.
1:18:31
That would be a final scripture for tonight. Please do
1:18:33
not miss any of the sessions. I'll be showing you
1:18:40
what the power of God contains, the dimensions of power,
1:18:45
and then we're going to be praying. Hopefully before the session.
1:18:49
Maybe the finance session will have the opportunity to pray
1:18:52
for the sick. Speak over our lives and impact graces
1:18:58
and importation is a transparent of possibilities. It's part of
1:19:03
the Apostolic ministry that every time God grants a privilege
1:19:07
to come across the region by the election of grace,
1:19:10
there will be a deposit of diviar realities, so that
1:19:15
men within the territory in greater levels will be on
1:19:17
fire manifesting possibilities that will bring glory to the name
1:19:22
of the Lord. Collosians one sixteen. Please read with me,
1:19:36
everyone ready, read one to read, For by Him were
1:19:40
all things created that are in heaven and that are
1:19:45
in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be dominions, principalities,
1:19:56
all things, the creative power, all things, all things, all things, favor,
1:20:09
all things, lifting, all things, supernatural, manifestation, all things. Let
1:20:15
me tell you this, If God decides that I'm creating
1:20:20
a brand new possibility for you, he can use anything,
1:20:24
even stones. Anything. You've sat here tonight learning the ways
1:20:33
of God first finding your passion to know God. The
1:20:37
more for some of you, more than the teaching tonight,
1:20:40
the Lord is cultivating in you a hunger for spiritual
1:20:45
things so that you will begin to love Him, and
1:20:49
you will begin to cry. Some of you will go
1:20:52
back after this conference and you say, Lord, reveal yourself
1:20:55
again to me. I'm tired of plain religion. I'm tired
1:20:59
of just writing my exams by myself and marking the script.
1:21:04
There is. There is so much I need to know.
1:21:06
It's a holy provocation. Don't fight it. It's challenging you,
1:21:10
those who bear fruity puns, so that they will bear
1:21:12
more fruit. Because hear me, there are many destinies that
1:21:15
are connected to you as you are listening to me,
1:21:18
and if you stop at this level, there are destinies
1:21:20
that will be destroyed. So more than what you are hearing,
1:21:24
you must go back. Fight the spirit that has killed
1:21:27
your prayer life. Fights the spirit that has killed your
1:21:30
word life, some of you your passion for the world.
1:21:33
Here and there you may just watch a ten minutes
1:21:35
video on YouTube. Go back now with a renewed passion.
1:21:38
I now see what the devil has been fighting my
1:21:41
authority in the kingdom. Because it is true knowledge, the
1:21:46
rude Shat be delivered. We rise up in this kingdom
1:21:50
by revelation. Please rise upon your feet shella bakasava la dabah.
