FULLY-PERSUADED-CULTIVATING-THE-FAITH-THAT-WORKS · Apostle Joshua Selman

0:01
Speaker 1: You don't put a novice in a position of authority
0:06
lest he be lifted up with pride and so falls
0:10
under the condemnation of Satan. In other words, when people
0:16
are lifted up and placed in higher offices, there is
0:21
a tendency in the human nature that Satan can exploit it,
0:27
and pride comes into it, and then you know, you
0:31
get into serious trouble. So before God lifts a person up,
0:36
he must be sure that he has established in the
0:42
DNA of that person humility and meekness. And I must
0:49
tell you the Gospel truths appost Joshuaselfman is a humble man,
0:57
all right. Have I've seen him in meetings? I mean,
1:03
I mean Kanan, Yeah, all right, I've seen him and
1:07
meeting and Kenya the type of respect and honor that
1:14
they are called him. If they give some people that
1:21
kind of honor and respect, what they will be preaching? Right,
1:26
You'll be, You'll be, You'll you yourself will be afraid.
1:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, you follow. I'm saying here.
1:32
Speaker 1: I woke up this morning and I was looking through
1:34
my phone and I saw it text message from him
1:38
thanking me for the honor of inviting I mean, display
1:43
of real you unders.
1:44
Speaker 2: I'm saying, no sense.
1:45
Speaker 1: Of entitlement, no sense of you understand, there's no sense
1:50
of I mean, it's almost like you. You have honored me
1:54
by inviting me for this meeting. And he's a minister
1:58
that if you invite for a meeting, you get a
2:01
huge response from the public. So you know you could
2:04
have not just it. Some other person will be telling
2:07
you that it is them because they came. You understand,
2:12
that's the attitude you get from them. And so you
2:15
know God is using him if your spiritualized are open,
2:21
is using him not just in the messages that he's preaching,
2:25
but in his lifestyle, in in in his God is
2:32
actually showing a new order of things in ministry on
2:37
the continent of Africa through him.
2:39
Speaker 2: Let's rise Stuffeth as a welcome apostle Joshua.
3:02
Speaker 3: Hallelujah, Covenant Nation, Happy new Year, sir, joy to meet again,
3:17
and I know that your life will never be the
3:19
same in the name of Jesus, past the fort you.
3:24
Speaker 2: Thank you, sir, thank you so much.
3:26
Speaker 3: I appreciate you and your dear wife. Let's give him
3:29
a big God bless you for the honor and the
3:33
privilege that has been accorded me to bring God's word.
3:39
I believe that this conference was put together for the
3:43
sake of someone's destiny here, and that in the name
3:48
of Jesus Christ, that which God intended for you from
3:53
the loins of prophecy made find the expression. Even in
3:56
the course of this conference, if someone shouting a believe, amen,
4:02
lift your hands in one minute and ask him to
4:04
speak to us again. Worthy worthy, the lamb worthy, worthy,
4:12
the lamb worthy worthy, The lamb.
4:17
Speaker 4: That was slain, faithful faithfully is the lamb faithful? Faithfull?
4:26
Is the lamb faithful faithfully.
4:29
Speaker 3: Is the lamb that was slain? Praise him, harlaylu Yah,
4:37
Praise him, hallylu Yeah, praise him, hallaylu Yah.
4:44
Speaker 2: Praise the Lord Father.
4:47
Speaker 3: Give me an encounter this afternoon. Someone is praying, give
4:52
me an encounter. The Bible says they go from strength
4:56
to strength as many as appear before the law. In Zion,
5:01
someone praying chabra t baranto paratus theater, give me an encounter,
5:09
appear onto me by your word. Let my faith be strengthened,
5:22
Let me command results. Let me step into a realm
5:26
of exploits. In Jesus' Mighty name.
5:32
Speaker 2: We pray.
5:34
Speaker 3: May the Lord bless you, please you may be seated. Allelujah.
5:43
You know, before I left a budget this morning, I
5:48
was just thinking to myself on the power that ministers
5:55
of the Gospel have in literally shaping the destinies and
6:01
the spiritual understanding of people.
6:04
Speaker 2: Alleluyah.
6:05
Speaker 3: That God has granted such grace that people become loyal
6:10
to anything and almost everything you say, including a lie,
6:15
that you literally can use words to redefine the cause
6:19
of a man's life.
6:21
Speaker 2: You can use words to even alter prophecy. Alleluyah.
6:28
Speaker 3: It's easy to correct false prophecy if you professy a lie.
6:31
All I need to know is just the truth or
6:34
be tired of waiting for it and it doesn't come
6:36
to pass and I just turn my face. But once
6:39
you encounter false teaching, it is it has programmed your
6:45
mind to move to a direction that it will only
6:47
take the messy of God to turn you back. Allelujah,
6:52
prays the name of the Lord. So the Bible says,
6:55
I will give you past us according to my heart
6:58
Jeremiah three point fifteen, and that they will serve you,
7:01
They will feed you with knowledge, and they will feed
7:05
you with understanding. Let me recall a statement that I
7:10
would always say that God's method has always been his word.
7:16
Speaker 2: Please lend me your attention.
7:18
Speaker 3: God's method has always been and will always be his word,
7:25
his method to lift by his word, his method to
7:29
transform by his word, his method to heal by his word,
7:34
his method to deliver by his word. That means any
7:38
result you ever obtain or attempt to obtain, that it
7:43
has to be routed out of the word of God.
7:46
Number one, it will not come to pass. Number two.
7:49
If it does come to pass, there will be a
7:51
consequence that would degenerate your life. John one.
7:56
Speaker 2: And these three.
7:57
Speaker 3: The Bible says all things were made by Him and
8:00
without Him, outside of Him, outside of the world, was
8:05
not anything made that was made. Allelujah. I want to
8:10
share a few contemplations with us, and I'm trusting that
8:16
God will grant us grace. I came for this conference
8:19
with a burden, hoping to really, by the spirit of God,
8:25
provide accuracy in spiritual understanding and to bring us to
8:32
a realm of mastery in understanding the subject of faith,
8:37
the subject of exploits, and the subject of power. May
8:41
God grant us grace in Jesus' name. I'll be starting
8:46
this morning or this afternoon session with a topic that
8:51
I titled fully persuaded, Fully persuaded Romance chapter four and
8:58
verse twenty one made the Lord bless his word in
9:00
Jesus' name.
9:03
Speaker 2: Roman chapter four.
9:04
Speaker 3: In fact, let's start from verse nineteen, then will stop
9:08
at twenty one. The Bible says, and being not weak
9:11
in faith that he being Abraham, he considered not his
9:16
body now dead when he was about one hundred years old,
9:19
neither the deadness of Sarah's wom verse twenty He taggered
9:23
not at the promises of God through unbelief, but was
9:27
strong in faith, giving glory to God verse twenty one, Allelujah,
9:33
and being fully persuaded that what he had promised he
9:40
was able to perform. Being fully persuaded that what he
9:45
had promised he was able to perform, let me professy
9:50
over someone already that in the name of Jesus, everything
9:53
God told you by his word in the name that
9:56
is above all names, this year you will watch it
9:58
manifest one by one. Aur dear receivers in this house,
10:03
I'm speaking to someone who has the faith to receive
10:06
that the things that God told you through your pastor
10:09
the things that God told you in the secret place.
10:12
In the name of Jesus, the grace for performance is
10:15
released on.
10:16
Speaker 2: That word.
10:18
Speaker 3: Shouted believing, Amen, please be seated. To start off, let
10:23
me say this that every believer in Christ is ordained
10:27
for an extraordinary life.
10:30
Speaker 2: Very simple but profound truth.
10:32
Speaker 3: When it has to do with living an extraordinary life.
10:36
God did not select certain individuals and then decided to
10:40
adorn them with his glory, with his grace, at.
10:43
Speaker 2: The expense of others. When it has to do with.
10:46
Speaker 3: The manifestation of the glory of God, it is the
10:49
inheritance of all saints.
10:52
Speaker 2: Are we learning now?
10:53
Speaker 3: It's important for us to have this orientation that in
10:57
as much as we find other people excelling in ministry,
11:01
perhaps more than others excelling in business, perhaps more than others,
11:06
that that.
11:06
Speaker 2: Difference was not God's design.
11:09
Speaker 3: You will be learning it is God's design that everyone
11:13
in Christ, every saint in light, that we rise and
11:17
we excel away together.
11:19
Speaker 2: And I hope you know.
11:21
Speaker 3: Let me remind you that when we bear foot, it
11:24
is the only way God.
11:25
Speaker 2: Is glorified upon the earth.
11:29
Speaker 3: The Bible says in John chapter fifteen from verse eight.
11:32
Speaker 2: I always like to quote this scripture.
11:34
Speaker 3: It says hearing is a father glorified that when ye
11:38
Joshua sellman, when ye everyone here gathered, when you bear
11:42
much foot, it says.
11:44
Speaker 2: Social you be my disciples.
11:45
Speaker 3: In other words, your fruitfulness validates the fact that you
11:50
were taught.
11:50
Speaker 2: Well. Are we together now?
11:53
Speaker 3: When you go to verse sixteen, it says you have
11:56
not chosen me, but I have chosen you and ordained you.
12:00
It's an ordination, it's not a suggestion.
12:03
Speaker 2: Are we together now?
12:04
Speaker 3: Meaning there is a space for you in destiny as
12:07
far as rising to God's expectation is concerned. And it
12:11
says that you should go and bear foot, and that
12:14
your foot should remain. The Bible says in Efficiens chapter two.
12:19
When you read from verse ten, it says, we are
12:22
His workmanship created in Christ Jesus, onto good walk say
12:29
good walks one more time. Shout They say, good walks,
12:32
onto good walks, which God had before preordained that we
12:37
should work in them. So it is every believer's destiny
12:42
in Christ to excel and to glorify Jesus through your life,
12:47
through your exploits, through your results.
12:51
Speaker 2: In the name of Jesus in John chapter two.
12:54
Speaker 3: And verse ten the first miracle that occurred in Kenna
12:58
of Galilee, and the Bible says that the rulers, now
13:04
we're commenting, haven't taken the wine, and it tasted better
13:08
than all others. He said, every man at the beginning
13:10
does set for good wine. And when the men have
13:13
well drunk, then that which is worse, it says, But
13:17
that has kept the good wine until now verse eleven.
13:20
Then it says this beginning of miracles, did Jesus in
13:25
Cana of Galilee help me and manifested forth his glory
13:30
and manifested forth his glory. That means every time God
13:35
desires to see his glory manifested in the earth, he
13:38
will invest grace upon the saints and empower them to
13:42
demonstrate the God life in such a manner that will
13:46
compel all and Saundry to know that there is a
13:49
God above. I pray for you that the kind of
13:52
results your life will begin to command from after this
13:55
conference is to compel believers, and unbelievers are like to
13:59
glorify the life God. If you're with me, shout amen.
14:04
Now let's go to Acts chapter six. Acts Chapter six
14:09
I'd like to read from verse one to ten, but
14:11
my verse of emphasis begins from verse seven. I want
14:14
us to take a case study as I establish my
14:17
thoughts that will run throughout the course of my session
14:21
in this conference Acts Chapter six.
14:23
Speaker 2: Let's begin from verse one.
14:24
Speaker 3: The Bible says, and in those days when the number
14:27
of the disciples was multiplied, there are rows and murmurings
14:31
among the Grecians against the Hebrews because their widows were
14:35
neglected in the daily ministration.
14:38
Speaker 2: Right we're reading verse two.
14:40
Speaker 3: Then the Bible says the twelve call the multitude of
14:43
the disciples, and said, it is not reason that we
14:47
should leave the word of God. Listen carefully and self tables.
14:51
Verse three it says, where, for brethren, look he out
14:55
among you seven men of honest report, full of the
14:59
holy and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
15:04
Verse four it says, but we will give ourselves continually
15:08
to prayer and to the ministry of the world. Next
15:11
verse please, the Bible says the saying, please the whole multitude,
15:14
and they chose Stephen. Take note, now they chose Stephen.
15:21
Why the Bible decided to start with this man and
15:24
seemed to isolate this man is a very interesting observation.
15:27
Speaker 2: Please keep that scripture.
15:29
Speaker 3: There they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and
15:34
of the Holy Ghost, and Philip. Nothing more about Philip
15:38
and the remaining people, nothing more was said about them.
15:42
They were part of the seven that were chosen. But
15:45
the Bible seemed to isolate one man away together and
15:49
give us an information that among these seven that were chosen,
15:52
there was one who was worthy of Note. The Bible
15:55
starts with him, and he says that man is Stephen,
15:58
not because he was the talls, not because he was
16:01
the finest. At least, the Bible does not give us
16:03
that detail. It says that he was full of faith
16:07
and of the Holy Ghost. Now go to verse six.
16:11
Whom they set before the apostles, and when they had prayed,
16:16
they laid their hands on them. Verse seven. And the
16:20
word of God increased, and the number of the disciples
16:24
multiplied in Jerusalem greatly, and a great company of priests
16:28
were obedient to the faith.
16:31
Speaker 2: Verse eight.
16:31
Speaker 3: Please read it as loud as you can. Ready want
16:35
to read, and Stephen, full of faith and power, hold
16:40
on one more time, and Stephen, please read one last time.
16:48
Speaker 2: Aha, this I was stealing.
16:51
Speaker 3: Again, the Bible says he was full of faith and power,
16:57
and as a result, he did great one. I hope
17:01
you know that his ordination was to serve tables. But
17:04
the Bible says there was a quality that he possessed
17:08
that would not allow him to be that limited. He
17:11
was not ordained to be a preacher. He was ordained
17:14
to be in the welfare department. But the Bible already
17:17
pre informed us that in that selection, there was a
17:20
man who was selected that the investment of the spirit
17:24
and the sacrifice he had made would forbid him from
17:27
remain in that position. A man steven, full of faith
17:33
and power. Please give it to us verse eight. Now
17:37
he did create wonders and miracles among the people.
17:41
Speaker 2: I like the Bible.
17:42
Speaker 3: It shows you results, and then it tells you what
17:45
led to those results. He tells us here that the
17:49
basis for the results and the exploits that Stephen commanded
17:54
a man that did not have any titles supposedly, but
17:57
provided he was full of faith, faith, and full of power.
18:02
Speaker 2: Someone say faith.
18:04
Speaker 3: Shout it again, say faith, say power, Say faith, say power.
18:10
This is very very instructive. Stephen was full of faith
18:16
and power. Now let's read the last verse, and then
18:18
I begin to establish a few things.
18:20
Speaker 2: The Bible says, we're reading to ten.
18:23
Speaker 3: You know, and certain people in the synagogue, the Libertines,
18:27
the Sierenians, the Alexandrians, and them of Celicia and of Asia.
18:33
The Bible says, they began to dispute with Stephen verse ten.
18:37
Read it again. If you're a Christian, ready want to go,
18:40
And they were not able to resist the wisdom and
18:44
the spirit.
18:48
Speaker 2: This was an extraordinary man.
18:50
Speaker 3: So the Bible tells us that this man was full
18:53
of faith and power, and that through the agency of
18:57
faith and power, there were notable exploids that were wrought
19:01
through him, and that he was not only one who
19:06
worked miracles when he had to do with communicating spiritual truth.
19:11
Speaker 2: Are we together?
19:12
Speaker 3: He challenged the thoughts of the people, and verse teny
19:15
says they could not resist the wisdom and the spirit
19:19
by which he speak. So we see here that behind
19:24
the exploits of men in scripture and even in modern history,
19:29
you find an interplay of faith and power. Please do
19:33
not forget will be revolving around these two concepts, faith
19:38
and power. The Bible says, according as his divine power.
19:42
In fact, it starts by saying, grace and peace be
19:45
multiplied onto you. Are we together through the knowledge of
19:49
God and of Jesus Christ, our Lord. The next verse,
19:52
verse four, Now it says verse three, according as his
19:56
divine power hath given us divine power, gave us all
20:02
things that pertains onto life and godliness his divine power.
20:07
Take note of that his divine power.
20:11
Speaker 2: A man.
20:13
Speaker 3: Faith and power, the Bible tells us. Let me talk
20:17
a bit about faith. I submit to you that many
20:21
many believers talk about faith, and with all you respect,
20:26
including preachers, they preach on faith, but there are not
20:30
many people that have really come to understand the Bible's
20:35
concept of faith. And I'm trusting that as a contribution
20:39
to our growth, I would introduce a few concepts that
20:43
will help us in understanding what the Bible calls faith.
20:47
The faith that works, the faith that moves mountains, the
20:51
faith that is responsible for exploits and for someone. As
20:55
you lay hold on this concept, you will marvel and
20:58
wonder at the way you're life begins to change. That
21:01
your life, your ministry, every dimension of your calling will
21:06
shift to a new level. You believe that, say amen,
21:09
So the Bible tells us in many instances, for at least,
21:13
that the just leaves by faith. You find that in
21:17
Haberko chapter two and verse four, Romance one seventeen, Hebrews
21:22
chapter ten and verse thirty eight. In all of these expressions,
21:25
the Bible says, the just leaves by faith, the just
21:30
leaves by faith. I define faith here as your confidence
21:35
in God. Take note your confidence in God, and this
21:39
is something I don't want you to brush away. Your
21:42
confidence in God first, and then the integrity of His
21:48
word demonstrated by your action of obedience, your confidence in God,
21:54
the person God, and then the integrity.
21:58
Speaker 2: Of His word. Are we together?
21:59
Speaker 3: The foundation of faith is in a person, not a concept,
22:04
not a principle. Bible faith is founded upon the revelation of.
22:10
Speaker 2: A person, not just principles.
22:13
Speaker 3: The Bible says, grace and peace is multiplied to you
22:17
through your knowledge of God. Now, most believers bypass this
22:22
God path, and they begin to.
22:24
Speaker 2: Have faith in principles.
22:26
Speaker 3: And although the principles are correct, many times they are
22:29
disappointed because there is a presence that powers the principles.
22:33
Are we together now? Bible faith is first in God
22:38
and then the integrity of His world. It is difficult
22:42
to believe a man's word if you have not had
22:45
an encounter with such a man.
22:47
Speaker 2: Are we together now?
22:49
Speaker 3: The woman left the fetcher and everything at the well,
22:53
and she ran to the city and said, come see
22:56
a man. The people did not care about Jesus, but
23:00
when they sought her depth of persuasion which.
23:04
Speaker 2: Had come from her encounter.
23:06
Speaker 3: The Bible says, they came, and when they met Jesus
23:09
they said, now we believe, not just because of what
23:12
you said, we have met.
23:13
Speaker 2: Him for ourselves. Allenlujah.
23:16
Speaker 3: I'm amazed that the concept of faith was not so
23:20
difficult to grasp in the Bible as it is in
23:24
our day today. And I've tried to read a lot
23:27
of materials to find out where.
23:29
Speaker 2: The missing link is.
23:30
Speaker 3: And really, this is what have come to share to
23:33
guide us to close the gaps by the spirit of
23:36
God as to why there is such gross faith failure,
23:42
such gross faith failure, sincere confessions, glorious confessions, but very
23:49
little exploits.
23:52
Speaker 2: Are we together? Who is learning?
23:55
Speaker 3: So that faith has to do with your confidence in
24:00
God and the integrity of His word demonstrated by your
24:04
action of obedience.
24:06
Speaker 2: This is very profound.
24:08
Speaker 3: Add chapter three, please give us from verse fifteen and
24:11
sixteen at chapter three.
24:20
Speaker 2: I think I've missed something there.
24:29
Speaker 3: John Chapter one, My apologies, John chapter one. From verse one,
24:35
I want to show you something very powerful. We begin
24:37
to connect a few dots here. Now I wrote something
24:41
down here, and I want.
24:42
Speaker 2: You to listen.
24:43
Speaker 3: Faith is a product of knowledge and understanding.
24:47
Speaker 2: Write that down.
24:48
Speaker 3: Bible faith is a product of knowledge and understanding. First
24:54
the knowledge of the world as God, and then the
24:58
Word asked Kingdom principles faith. Bible faith is a product
25:06
of knowledge and understanding. First the knowledge of the Word
25:11
as God. John Chapter one and verse one. The Bible says,
25:14
in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was
25:17
with God, and the Word was God. The same was
25:23
in the beginning with God. So the Word is God.
25:26
There is God personified as the Word, and then there
25:31
is the Word as the principles, the modus or parandi,
25:35
the mysteries of the Kingdom.
25:37
Speaker 2: Hallelujah.
25:39
Speaker 3: And you need both dimensions of knowledge. Now write this.
25:42
Speaker 2: Down, please.
25:43
Speaker 3: Faith failure I wrote here in the believer is largely
25:48
the absence of light or insufficient light. Faith failure in
25:54
the believer is largely the absence of light or insufficient light,
26:00
and then other factors like obedience, in patience and the
26:03
rest in diagnosing the faith failure. The first part of
26:08
call should not be the issue of obedience or the
26:11
issue of patience. We have to verify first where that
26:15
light actually came, because if lights did not arrive in
26:19
your spirit, then your faith is assumed.
26:21
Speaker 2: Faith.
26:22
Speaker 3: Faith is a reaction something birds faith. Are we together now? Light?
26:31
Faith failure in the believer is largely the absence of
26:34
light or insufficient light. Go to Matthew Chapter four, Please
26:40
and verse four. So Jesus was driven by the spirit
26:44
to the wilderness to be tempted of the devil, the
26:48
Bible says, and having prayed and fasted for forty days,
26:52
the Bible says, Satan came to tempt him. Follow the discussion.
26:56
Now temptation number one. He looked at him and said,
26:59
you are hungry. He says, turn this tone to bread.
27:03
Turn this tone to bread. Jesus replies verse four. It says,
27:09
it is written, please hear me now. Man shall not
27:15
leave by bread alone. So Jesus is talking about leaving now,
27:20
and he's showing us a profound formula man shall not
27:24
live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeded
27:29
out of the mouth of God. Man shall not leave
27:33
by bread alone. The word leaves there does not just
27:36
mean to exist. Please pay attention now. The word leave
27:40
does not just mean to.
27:43
Speaker 2: Exist.
27:43
Speaker 3: It means to excel, allelujah. It means to thrive, It
27:51
means to advance. So when the Bible says there that
27:54
man shall not leave, he's not just talking of breathing
27:57
in and out. He's saying man to excel well, man
28:01
to rise, man to thrive cannot just be by bread.
28:06
And you see, the word bread there does not just
28:09
mean a loaf that you eat. Are we together? The
28:13
word bread there means that which is of a natural source.
28:18
Man does not leave by bread alone, that which is
28:22
man made, and that which is of a natural source.
28:26
That if you find men excelling, listen carefully, if you
28:30
find men thriving, if you find men commanding exploits in
28:34
the spirit that they have engaged beyond bread a natural source.
28:39
Speaker 2: When you find someone prospering extra ordinarily.
28:43
Speaker 3: His job may be dere, but he's not living by
28:45
bread alone. Bread is that which is of a natural source,
28:49
but that he has added to his natural source.
28:51
Speaker 2: The proceeding word is someone learning now.
28:56
Speaker 3: So he's saying that this is how he designed man
28:58
to leave by bread. Bread can mean anything, your job,
29:03
Bread can mean your business. Anything that is of a
29:06
natural source is bread. But he's saying, if you live
29:09
by bread alone, there will be a deficiency in your results,
29:13
because man was never designed to live off a natural
29:17
source alone.
29:18
Speaker 2: Are we together?
29:19
Speaker 3: The character of bread is that after a while, whether
29:22
you consume it or not, it will wrote Are we together?
29:27
Speaker 2: Now?
29:27
Speaker 3: Am I right on that? So he says man does
29:30
not live by bread alone. As much as bread feeds,
29:34
he's telling you that it has a limitation, but that
29:37
if you find a believer who must excel, advanced, strive, command,
29:42
exploit in addition to the bread, the thing that you do,
29:46
whatever natural principle you engage, he says that there must
29:50
be a proceeding word that comes in partnership with whatever
29:55
you do to provide excellence. You can do ministry by
29:59
bread and the result will be clear. But when the
30:02
proceeding word comes upon it, you have not violated the principles.
30:06
But you can see that there is an extra ordinary dimension.
30:09
You can do ministry by bread natural source, business principles,
30:14
nothing is wrong. The result will be there, and the
30:17
limitations will be there to show, but that there is
30:19
an extra ordinary dimension when that word factor, that word
30:24
component is introduced to your life, introduced to your ministry.
30:28
Are we together now, that the results will be clear.
30:31
So Jesus is giving us an orientation that the saints
30:35
man himself does not live by bread. That means everything
30:39
that is created by man, too, cannot live by bread alone,
30:43
not your business, not your job, not your marriage, not
30:47
your children. If you live in the realm of natural
30:52
principles and the normal cause of things alone, I tell
30:55
you your life will hardly bring glory to God because
30:58
there are limitations. Man shall not leave by bread alone,
31:05
by business alone, by your career pursuit alone.
31:10
Speaker 2: He does not neglect bread. Now.
31:12
Speaker 3: The trouble is that the moment you take away bread,
31:16
because bread sustains you until the world arrives.
31:20
Speaker 2: Are we together now?
31:21
Speaker 3: Before the second world came for Elijah, it was the
31:24
bread he was eating away together now he was being fed,
31:29
and that feeding held him until the world came to
31:32
give him an not that direction. God does not take
31:35
away bread from your life, but it teaches you that
31:38
the real result is not just in the bread. That
31:41
bread must come in partnership with the proceeding world who
31:44
is understanding. So far you can line too believers, and
31:49
by gauging their results, in many cases you can see
31:53
that one is living by bread alone and Jesus already won.
31:57
Don't do ministry by bread alone. Don't do business by
32:01
bread alone. There are limitations. Relationships are powerful. What man
32:06
can change bread alone? Are we together?
32:10
Speaker 2: Now?
32:10
Speaker 3: Your job is a powerful means of helping you board.
32:13
Someone out of any kind of sentiment can sut you
32:17
in one day. Bread alone ministry is powerful. God, you
32:21
can have a try offhan entry to damn.
32:23
Speaker 2: Be on your way to the cross tomorrow.
32:25
Speaker 3: Bread alone, a generation that depends on bread alone over
32:31
intellectualizing life. A generation that depends on the works of
32:36
the flesh alone will never bring glory to God. The
32:40
secret behind exploits is that in addition to bread, you
32:44
must contend for the proceeding world who is learning.
32:49
Speaker 2: Now listen, If.
32:52
Speaker 3: A man requires the word of God to excel, then
32:56
everything that man is involved with must also require the
33:01
word of God for it's excelling. Now you see, the
33:05
word of God is a very important concept as we're
33:08
dealing with faith. The ministry of the world is responsible
33:13
for shaping the spiritual understanding of any man. The ministry
33:18
of the world produces understanding.
33:21
Speaker 2: The ministry of the world produces conviction.
33:24
Speaker 3: This is the reason why I started by talking about
33:27
the teaching ministry. Listen, you imagine the things that you
33:32
have learned in one week of walfback.
33:34
Speaker 2: Some of you you've.
33:35
Speaker 3: Had to reset your spiritual life from start again in
33:38
one week. This is the power and the quality of
33:42
the teaching ministry. It serves you with spiritual understanding props
33:46
into what you believe that your faith is anchored upon.
33:50
Speaker 2: You're going to be learning that believing is not enough.
33:53
We have to.
33:53
Speaker 3: Verify what you believe in. Are we together now? You
33:57
can't believe in a lie. You believe, but.
33:59
Speaker 2: You will still fail. Allelujah.
34:06
Speaker 3: Faith in any area of need comes when accurate spiritual
34:11
understanding in that area is established.
34:14
Speaker 2: Please hear me.
34:15
Speaker 3: Faith in any areas only established, not just when you
34:20
want to see it established, but when accurate spiritual understanding
34:25
in that area is established.
34:27
Speaker 2: That means I don't need.
34:29
Speaker 3: To tell you get faith for finances. If I teach
34:32
you the principles accurately as designed. At the end of
34:37
that lecture, I have planted the seed of faith in you,
34:40
whether you act upon it or not. Faith comet and
34:44
the way it comes is by hearing.
34:47
Speaker 2: That means what you hear and who you listen to.
34:51
Speaker 3: Is the compass that determines your destiny, not just the
34:55
will of God. God can desire that you go right,
34:58
but your hearing can becoming a rebel to.
35:01
Speaker 2: God's desire for you.
35:02
Speaker 3: Many destinies today are in trouble, not necessarily because of disobedience,
35:08
because we need to prove the quality of the spiritual
35:12
information that has formed your conviction. There is a way
35:15
to do ministry that leads to failure, even if the
35:19
devil does not exist. There is a way to do
35:22
business that insists that you must fail. I hope you
35:25
know that failure, too, is not automatic. Failure is a reaction.
35:29
Something plus something equals to failure. So when you fail frequently,
35:36
it is because of mastery in error or mastery in ignorance.
35:40
You are engaging a lord repeatedly. There is something that
35:46
you can do that will stop.
35:48
Speaker 2: Failure from coming. Are we together now?
35:53
Speaker 3: Bible faith as taught by the fathers. Bible faith as
35:58
taught by Jesus is not just something you claim ahh.
36:02
It is a product of working upon your spiritual understanding,
36:08
opening you up to the vast resources of God's world.
36:11
Are we together? When your mind is transformed, when your
36:15
spiritual understanding is influenced, then you begin to command results
36:20
that are not that understanding. Faith failure, therefore, is directly
36:27
a product largely a product of inaccurate spiritual understanding or error.
36:33
Speaker 2: Who is learning?
36:38
Speaker 3: The faith problem for many believers is because now I'm
36:44
saying this with all due respect, the foundation for the
36:48
widespread faith failure in Nigeria and in Africa will be
36:54
traced from person to person, man of God to man
36:57
of God, to finally land.
36:58
Speaker 2: On the pulpit.
37:01
Speaker 3: This is where the foundation of the failure of the
37:05
faith of many.
37:06
Speaker 2: That's the root.
37:08
Speaker 3: Something I can tell you and you will believe because
37:11
you love me and you trust that I'm teaching you.
37:13
I can so program you, you can be so fortified
37:16
with error you step out of that place with boldness
37:20
and confidence, only to recycle pain for many years, and
37:24
for as long as that programming remains, your destiny remains
37:29
that way. Are we together. It's a sad reality. And
37:36
as much as I love the Body of Christ, I must.
37:39
Speaker 2: Tell you.
37:40
Speaker 3: Can look at a believer and with a surgical precision
37:46
you can diagnose the areas of darkness in his or
37:49
her life, especially when the believers are sincere. You can
37:53
see that if only this man opens himself to a
37:56
more superior dimension of spiritual understanding, certain certain calamities would
38:02
not even be found around your vicinity. The cure to
38:05
faithlessness is light, a restoration of accurate communication of spiritual truth.
38:14
Speaker 2: Who is learning the faith of a man can fail.
38:19
Speaker 3: Jesus said, I have prayed for you that your faith
38:21
failed not and that when you are converted, strengthen your brethren.
38:26
This is why the teaching ministry, and I think this
38:29
is one of my emphasis this morning as I begin
38:32
my session, that the teaching ministry, with all due respect,
38:36
thank God for what God has done in Nigeria, thank
38:39
God for the many men and women of God. But
38:41
we have a responsibility for the sake of the body,
38:44
to go back to the drawing board and swallow our
38:48
pride and begin to read what has constructed our spiritual understanding.
38:53
Some of us, it came from poor mentorship. Some of
38:56
us it came from reading sincere books. Some of us
38:58
it came with interacting with familiar spirits. And when we
39:01
found Christ, we did not allow minds to be transformed.
39:04
We incorporated what we brought from culture, mixed everything up
39:08
and formed a faith thought around it. The consequence of
39:16
this ill feeding of the priest is the quality of
39:19
believers that are presented.
39:20
Speaker 2: Within a territory.
39:22
Speaker 3: You can literally assess the quality of the teaching priests
39:26
within a territory a we together by sampling the quality
39:30
of the spiritual lives of the average believer. For some
39:35
of you right now, with all due respect, God has
39:38
brought this walk back as a deliverance service. While lords
39:41
have been laughing, you've been quiet crying.
39:43
Speaker 2: So this is what I.
39:44
Speaker 3: Believed for five years, six years. I wrote books honoring
39:49
this era. I argued with people honoring this era. And
39:53
I'm about to mentor sons and daughters to be loyal
39:56
to that era. But thank God for a conference like this,
39:59
with one communication of truth. You see, no matter how
40:03
long darkness has been, if you offer the bob in
40:06
a room for ten years, if you earn that bob,
40:08
it will not take ten years to earn, it will
40:10
own immediately. Are we together? John Chapter one and verse five.
40:17
It says the lights shine it in the darkness, and
40:19
the darkness comprehended it not hallelujah, this is very powerful.
40:26
The teaching ministry give us romance Chapter ten. Please from
40:29
verse thirteen and fourteen. Then we jump to seventeen. Is
40:32
God speaking to someone? The teaching ministry where diagnosing the
40:39
faith problem. Every time I study the materials of E. W. Kenyon,
40:44
Kenneth again and all these fathers of faith, you find
40:48
there that the abondance of faith that came from them
40:52
was because of the abundance of spiritual understanding.
40:55
Speaker 2: I hope you know when you study history.
40:57
Speaker 3: When the world of faith from the sixties down to
41:01
the seventies, let me tell you what happened.
41:03
Speaker 2: There were two groups of people. Even among the world of.
41:06
Speaker 3: Faith, there were doors who tilted towards manifestation and power,
41:11
and they did not pay so much attention to the
41:13
word of God. Men like Hagin wants such people and
41:16
told them, if you do not readirect your spiritual priority,
41:19
you will not last. You see, when you use the
41:22
route of the world is slower, but it will bring
41:25
greater stability for a long time, there will be no
41:29
charismatism around it. Ministry by the word, is slower. But
41:33
what you build with lust, business, by the word, is slower.
41:36
And because we live in a world where we're in
41:38
a hurry to get things immediately, to get things on time,
41:43
compromise looks like it brings benefits for a while, and
41:47
then you find out that you flip to the other
41:49
side of failure. Let me show you a scripture Romance,
41:56
Chapter ten, from verse thirteen Blessed with the name of
41:59
the Lord. For whosoever shall call upon the name of
42:03
the Lord shall be saved.
42:05
Speaker 2: Verse fourteen Read with me ready want to go?
42:08
Speaker 3: How shall they call on him?
42:13
Speaker 2: So believing? Is there now? Aha?
42:15
Speaker 3: And how shall they believe in him of whom they
42:20
have not heard? So hearing? Notice the progression believing, hearing,
42:25
hearing birds believing? And then he says, and how shall
42:30
they hear without a preacher?
42:32
Speaker 2: So a preacher or a teacher.
42:34
Speaker 3: But hearing, hearing birds believing, believing bird's faith and faith, if.
42:40
Speaker 2: Correct, produces the result.
42:42
Speaker 3: So you can test the preacher's walk by the final result.
42:47
Speaker 2: Are we together? Now?
42:49
Speaker 3: How shall they hear without a preacher. How shall they
42:55
hear without a preacher? How shall they hear without a preacher?
43:01
I want to show you one scripture, and then we'll
43:04
find somewhere to pray. This blessed me as God opened
43:07
my eyes preparing my sessions for this conference. Romance chapter four. Again,
43:12
we're reading seventeen and eighteen. Please pay attention now, Romance
43:16
chapter four. Please give us verse seventeen as it is written.
43:21
I have made thee a father of many nations before
43:25
whom he believed. Listen, even God, who quick connect the
43:30
dead and collect those things which be not as though
43:34
they were shout verse eighteen.
43:35
Speaker 2: If you believe already want to go?
43:38
Speaker 3: Who against hope?
43:46
Speaker 2: Stop?
43:48
Speaker 3: So he believed according to that which was spoken. Pay attention.
43:53
He believed according to that which was spoken. All men
43:57
believe according to what is spoken. All men believe. The
44:02
Bible says Abraham believed according to that which was spoken. Listen,
44:07
you believe onto failure and defeat. According to that which
44:12
is spoken, you believe into error. According to that which
44:17
is spoken, you believe into limitations. According to that which
44:22
was spoken, you believe into faith and exploit. According to
44:26
that which was spoken. The first fall recorded in scripture.
44:30
The fall of Man came as a result of something
44:32
they heard when God came, question one, where are you?
44:36
Speaker 2: Question two? Who told you?
44:39
Speaker 3: Who told you? You? Have exposed your hearing too an
44:42
influence that is not me and your destiny even in
44:45
the garden of Eden where there were no generational causes,
44:49
even in the garden of Eden, where there were no
44:51
witches and wizards robbing around as first we.
44:53
Speaker 2: Know in the garden of Eden.
44:56
Speaker 3: That means if all the evil were praying against still live,
44:59
many will you fail Because the problem is not entirely Satan.
45:04
Speaker 2: Are we together? Now?
45:07
Speaker 3: Satan is very flattered when we give him credit for
45:10
everything that happens in our lives. He's surprised that we're
45:15
that ignorant to know that he's not that mighty. Are
45:21
we together? And provided you can keep you into believing
45:27
that every tragedy in your life is directly traced to him,
45:30
he has gained an edge with that belief system over you.
45:34
The Bible says Abraham believed according to that which was spoken.
45:39
There are people today who are believed onto an excelling life.
45:42
Speaker 2: According to that which was spoken.
45:44
Speaker 3: God brought them in company of your teaching priests and
45:47
line up online. Their spiritual understanding began to be chiselled
45:51
until they have become from midable believers for midable witnesses.
45:56
There are many people who got born against sincerely, but
45:59
unfortunately they found themselves planted around circles and around teaching
46:04
priests that did not do justice to their spiritual development,
46:09
and they have become victims today. I submit to you,
46:12
and I say that as touching the body of Christ
46:15
with every sense of responsibility. There are people who have
46:18
died today who should not have died. There are people
46:21
in poverty today who should not have been poor. What
46:23
they would have believed to excel, somebody told them it
46:26
was wrong. There are people today who were preached onto prayerlessness.
46:32
There are people today who were preached onto lack of
46:36
fasting for their spiritual growth. There are people today who
46:39
were preached onto lack of character and moral excellence and holiness.
46:43
There were people today who were preached onto laziness. It
46:47
matters what you hear, because the preacher brings the hearing.
46:51
The hearing brings the believing. The believing will determine whether
46:56
your faith will work or not. You can believe a
46:59
lie from many years. You can believe a lie established
47:03
doctrines around that lie.
47:07
Speaker 2: Who is learning prays the name of the Lord.
47:12
Speaker 3: Imagine if there were no conference like Wolfbeck, where God
47:15
has put together speaker after speaker, bringing dimensions of spiritual reality.
47:21
Do you know I'm telling you? When God wants to
47:24
help a man, he shortens the distance Revengelian good to
47:28
saying you God bless your sir. He shortens the distance
47:31
between you and a teaching priests he has trained. Are
47:36
we together now? When God wants to show you messy?
47:40
One of the ways that God shows messy is by
47:43
introducing men he has are credited to your destiny. Because immediately,
47:48
when you truly have compassion upon people, teach them beyond
47:52
giving them. Teaching the teaching ministry is one of the
47:56
greatest demonstrations of compassion. When Jesus had compassion upon the people,
48:04
he began to teach. When you have compassion, giving is wonderful,
48:09
But the greatest form of giving is to communicate truth,
48:12
to serve light. I can give you a bag of
48:14
right is still err or carrying it. It will finish
48:17
and recycle your life again. I can profess sigh over
48:21
you and help your life to gain direction, and turn
48:24
you a slave to me as a man of God,
48:27
and rejoice over your slavery and call it ministerial exploits.
48:33
Speaker 2: Listen to me, only a wee can.
48:35
Speaker 3: Lecturer wants to be tied to his students forever. No,
48:39
there is a there. You are released. He's still the
48:41
relationship is still maintained. But he releases you as a
48:45
testament that he has done a good job. If you
48:51
must remain a slave indefinitely, something is wrong with what
48:55
you are hearing. Releasing people does not bring this honor.
49:00
If it did, God would not release us. Jesus after
49:05
three and a half year, said I'm living, but I
49:07
trust what is happening to you. I trust the programming
49:10
that has come by the word are we together?
49:12
Speaker 2: Now?
49:13
Speaker 3: You saw the sense of urgency. The only way who
49:16
could trust that the job would be done was number one,
49:19
the quality of the world that was invested in the
49:22
disciples alongside the spirit who talk about the power dimension
49:26
and Steven full of faith and power, faith and power,
49:33
faith and power. Listen to me, did anybody ever tell
49:37
you that you are wonderfully and fearfully made?
49:40
Speaker 2: Did you believe it?
49:42
Speaker 3: Did anybody ever tell you that you are exalted above
49:45
all the nations of the earth and that these blessings can.
49:48
Speaker 2: Come upon you.
49:49
Speaker 3: The simple reason why the woman who was bound for
49:53
eighteen years was healed, it was not necessarily because it
49:56
was Jesus that prayed for her. There was an information
50:00
was not told her for eighteen years that kept her.
50:03
He was never told you was a daughter of Abraham.
50:07
That missing information kept time bondage. When Jesus came, he said,
50:12
no or not this woman being a daughter of Abraham.
50:16
Who are those who have been mentoring these kind of members?
50:19
You never told them that there is a blessing that comes.
50:23
There is an implication to be in the seed of Abraham.
50:28
Who is learning now there is a mentality that produces victory,
50:32
and that mentality is a product of the teaching ministry.
50:36
Are you learning my contemplations now that if there is
50:39
a faith failure in your life, it is not an anomally,
50:45
it's not a mystery. You can diagnose it with precision.
50:48
Go back to your belief systems and begin to probe
50:52
what has constructed your conviction. You will find a missing
50:55
link there that you have believed a lie and a
51:01
preacher does not have to be fake and forced to
51:03
teach a lie. Pride produces such results. There is something
51:08
called the knowing only syndrome is found in Aunts chapter eighteen,
51:14
when you read from verse twenty four to twenty eight.
51:17
I don't have the time to touch there, but my life.
51:19
God delivered me from this many years ago. Because our
51:24
pride and our ego can peg a generation at the
51:28
messy of what we do not want to know, because
51:31
it would desire and demand adaptation. There are people today
51:36
who would rather fail alongside with millions of others than
51:40
humble themselves for ten minutes to hear.
51:42
Speaker 2: Accurate truth that was not captured in their training.
51:46
Speaker 3: The Bible talks about a man who was born at Alexandria.
51:50
The Bible says he was a mighty man in scripture.
51:53
He was eloquent, he was mighty in scripture. He came
51:56
to Ephesos. It's a very popular scripture. And one time,
51:59
this is how I always say it. Beware, listen, listen, listen,
52:03
and this is we're not in a pastor's conference, but
52:06
let me just lend my voice to say this. Always
52:10
carry this mentality that you are not impressing everybody when
52:14
you are holding the mic. There are people who have
52:16
attained an altitude in the spirit. They come with humility
52:20
and sit quietly in conferences like this, like a Quiller
52:23
and Priscilla, and join the investment of God's grace board
52:27
seeing the gaps in your own understanding. If you maintain
52:30
that posture of humility, you will last in ministry. So
52:34
such a man, mighty, he came for a conference like
52:37
this Wolfbeck, and whilst he was shouting, two men in
52:42
the congregation they were watching him, a Quilla and Priscilla.
52:46
The Bible says, go to verse twenty five place. The
52:50
Bible says that this man was instructed in the way
52:53
of the Lord, so he was mentored. He was not
52:55
a rebel. He was favent in spirit and speak dealing
53:00
generally the things of the Lord.
53:01
Speaker 2: Please read the last line with me one to go.
53:06
Speaker 3: Knowing what Ah, How can a man have all these credentials?
53:13
And then the Bible ends by saying, knowing only and
53:19
in this generation of pride is amazing. How you can
53:22
be shouting over something but it is still knowing only
53:26
knowing only First car Interns Chapter eight and verse two.
53:30
The Bible says, and I please give it to us
53:33
so we find somewhere to pray.
53:34
Speaker 2: Read with me, ready, go want to read?
53:37
Speaker 3: And if any man think that he knows anything, he
53:41
knowed nothing yet. Classically speaking, the character of champions is
53:47
in your hunger to know more. When you see a champion,
53:51
you see that meekness to learn and her rival mentality
53:54
is proof of failure already working in a person.
53:58
Speaker 2: Are we together now?
54:00
Speaker 3: I have learned in life and in ministry that no
54:02
body claps for you twice for the same level. Once
54:06
they clap for you, once you've received their applot that comes.
54:08
If you don't grow, you will never hear any applaud
54:11
to the glory of God again.
54:14
Speaker 2: Allelujah.
54:16
Speaker 3: It is the reason why as a person I run
54:19
away from things that you know, seem to bring a
54:23
lot of public praise and exaltation. It's just my personality.
54:26
I give God thanks and I run away. I have
54:30
so many have received so many awards, awards for things
54:34
some I don't even know what is for. They just
54:36
presented it and I collected it. I honestly I don't
54:40
even know. The people just say, oh hey, God bless
54:42
you and keep it there. I've not even opened some
54:45
of them because I don't see metallic objects beautified. I
54:50
see sorts that can pierce you and can kill you
54:54
if you don't arrange them. Well, show us the ancient path.
55:05
Will you lead us along? E turn a highway? We
55:10
want to follow the ways of Jesus.
55:18
Speaker 2: Listen to me.
55:20
Speaker 3: There is a call, and this is the summary of
55:25
my discussion this afternoon.
55:28
Speaker 2: My call is to two groups of people.
55:31
Speaker 3: Number one, my call, with all due respect, is to
55:37
the men and the women of God. The next move
55:40
of God in Nigeria. The next move of God in
55:43
Africa is not just dependent on prophecy. It is dependent
55:49
on the quality of the teaching priests that will shape
55:53
the spiritual understanding of the average believer in Nigeria, the
55:58
average believer in Africa. Let me repeat myself again, no
56:02
matter what prophetic word comes, and there have been many
56:06
about the moves of God accurately, so it will fall
56:10
dead until God is Let me tell you this. Revivals
56:15
have no dates. Revivals are ready when the men to
56:19
be used are ready. Revival can be today dependent on
56:25
the preparation of the vessels, or revival can be a
56:29
date prolonged call forever based on the preparedness or otherwise. Allelujah.
56:38
The Church in Nigeria is at a very prophetic position.
56:42
The church in Africa, Allelujah. God is ready to display
56:47
his glory like never before. But let me tell you this,
56:50
jumping over prophecies and priding over it, who only leave
56:54
us in pain and disappointment, intercess us. Let me give
56:58
you a prayer point. Don't just pray Maranatha, pray for
57:02
an imagence of teaching.
57:03
Speaker 2: Priests, intercess us.
57:07
Speaker 3: Don't just pray for healing, anointings and science and wonders.
57:10
They are wonderful, but they don't establish.
57:16
Speaker 2: It is the word of God.
57:17
Speaker 3: I commend you to God Acts Chapter twenty thirty two,
57:21
and to the world of his grace, which is able
57:25
to build you up and to give you an inheritance.
57:29
Among them that are scientified, who is learning now pray
57:32
the name of the Lord.
57:33
Speaker 2: This is very powerful.
57:35
Speaker 3: The next move of God in Nigeria, please hear me.
57:39
The next move of God in Africa is not just
57:42
dependent on prophecies, no matter how accurate, but on the
57:46
quality of teaching priests that shape the spiritual understanding of
57:51
the church. Matthew chapter twenty three please and verse thirteen,
57:55
Please give us an ivy shama cabarracus. Can you pray
58:01
in the spirit in one minute? Just one minute? Let
58:04
it be from the depth of your heart. You are
58:06
receiving an infusion of strength and power to soar shalika
58:15
brandtaker pratos risk lepgrad take a for retos kalika branda
58:24
in Jesus' name, we pray. Please give us that scripture
58:29
here what Jesus said, Jesus himself was sad.
58:33
Speaker 2: He was paid, and he said, what do.
58:36
Speaker 3: You The first sets of people who received that rebuke
58:40
from Jesus were teachers war onto you, teachers of the
58:44
law and pharisees.
58:45
Speaker 2: He called them hippocrits. What was their offense?
58:48
Speaker 3: Read with me, you shot the Kingdom of Heaven in
58:53
men's faces. You yourself do not enter, and you will
58:58
not let those who enter are not trying to you.
59:01
See that that was the offense of teachers. When you
59:10
say you're a minister of the world and the teacher
59:13
of the world, there is greater judgment that is coming
59:16
on you.
59:17
Speaker 2: Because if God.
59:18
Speaker 3: Trusts you with the loyalty of ten million people, gid
59:22
your needed only three hundred men. Do you know how
59:26
many we are in Nigeria? Someone talk to me, someone
59:32
who still loves Nigeria.
59:33
Speaker 2: Talk to me. How many are we in this nation? Ah?
59:40
Speaker 3: Two hundred and twenty. We've hadded twenty so soon. Ah,
59:46
Now listen, two hundred and twenty million people, largely professing Christians,
59:53
largely church goers, largely loyal church members. Think the kind
59:59
of army that can arise? Do you know the teaching
1:00:03
priests in this nation accountable? I mean, men and women
1:00:07
of God. We are many, but we're accountable. If God
1:00:11
gods all of us. We need to kneel them and say, Lord,
1:00:14
we're sorry. We're responsible for the decadence that has affected
1:00:19
close to two hundred million people. When God walked you
1:00:23
to learn it dimension that was not captured in your experience,
1:00:27
your pride did not allow you learn it. And you
1:00:30
men taught people along the lines of your error and
1:00:33
reproduce your error.
1:00:34
Speaker 2: In one million people.
1:00:36
Speaker 3: And now the damage is increasing again. For every time
1:00:40
I reject truth, for every time I allow pride to
1:00:43
stand on the way, I am destroying the destinies of
1:00:46
those connected to me who believe I'm hearing God, who
1:00:50
believe that everything I teach them will build them who
1:00:56
is learning. My first call is to men and women
1:01:00
of God. We must obtain grace. The days of blind
1:01:04
pride is over. Nobody knows everything full stop. Did you
1:01:09
get me? Nobody knows everything full stop. If you're not
1:01:15
getting it in an area, quietly come for war back.
1:01:17
Just sit quietly, Sit quietly and learn. Sit quietly and learn.
1:01:23
Even if you don't like the preacher, just it, not
1:01:26
the face, and get the world. That was the formula
1:01:31
for receiving honey that Samson told us that honey is
1:01:35
in a caucas You have to endure the smell to draw.
1:01:40
If you are waiting for the container to always be
1:01:43
as writer as you want, you will die of hunger.
1:01:46
There is honey even in Cacas. Out of the many
1:01:49
places that the bee can put honey, there were trees,
1:01:53
but it went to put honey in a caucus. It's
1:01:56
a mystery. And Samthon gave a riddle that read is
1:02:00
a message to the body of Christ. Out of something
1:02:03
strong has come something sweet, that even when that's something
1:02:07
strong is now dead. Are we together listen to me?
1:02:12
Please hear me. You will never find a perfect church,
1:02:16
and you will never find a perfect man of God.
1:02:19
Those two things don't exist. Now, it's not a call
1:02:23
for carelessness. Don't get me right. Need to balance it
1:02:25
quickly and immediately. Are we together?
1:02:28
Speaker 2: Now? Quickly and immediately you won't find that.
1:02:33
Speaker 3: However, However, the secret to receiving honey is to endure
1:02:40
the smell of the kakas. I know that the church
1:02:44
jumps too much, but just endure the childishness and sit
1:02:48
down to receive the word. I know that sometimes the
1:02:52
preacher does not talk with the kind of intelligence you want.
1:02:56
He may not be that vocal. But then just take
1:03:01
away the limitations and see the grace behind it. Are
1:03:05
we together now? Let me tell you the truth. The
1:03:08
more you are willing to adapt and endear two spiritual qualities,
1:03:12
you will hasten your journey to transformation. If your ability
1:03:16
to adapt and endear is poor, then your transformation will.
1:03:20
Speaker 2: Be very slow, very very slow. Allelujah, prays the name
1:03:27
of the Lord.
1:03:29
Speaker 3: There used to be a great man of God. You
1:03:33
know he's going to be with the Lord, great man
1:03:36
of God that I respect. I used to I listened
1:03:38
to him, a great teacher of the world. But there
1:03:41
were dimensions he communicated that were very disturbing, and I
1:03:46
knew that he would pay the price for those dimensions.
1:03:49
He did not know, and he sometimes, and respectfully speaking,
1:03:54
he arrogantly communicated some of those dimensions.
1:03:57
Speaker 2: And sometimes I will. You know, when you love somebody.
1:04:00
Speaker 3: And the person is not getting it right, you feel it.
1:04:02
Speaker 2: In your heart.
1:04:03
Speaker 3: I said, oh, oh, that this man. Where is a
1:04:06
Quila and Priscillia help this man for me. Somebody appear
1:04:10
and tell this man that you have done well in
1:04:12
this area, but could you adjust in this area? And
1:04:16
the area he ignored was where the devil hit him
1:04:18
till he died away together praise the name of the Lord.
1:04:27
Listen to me. Listen. I want to tell you something
1:04:29
and I want you to receive it with all your heart.
1:04:33
You must be prepared. This is the second call now
1:04:36
to the body of Christ. Be prepared to embrace the
1:04:41
whole counsel of God, the whole counsel of God. This
1:04:47
is to preach us, but this is also to members
1:04:50
for God's sake. If you're a man of God, be
1:04:52
prepared to serve God's people with the whole counsel of God.
1:04:56
It is wonderful to teach people how to be spiritually
1:04:59
vi brand. But don't forget they have bills to pay.
1:05:03
And don't forget that hunger always takes Egypt to Israel,
1:05:07
I mean Israel to Egypt.
1:05:09
Speaker 2: Are we together now?
1:05:11
Speaker 3: Don't forget that among your members there are leaders, and
1:05:14
that poor leaders can destroy society even if they're born again.
1:05:21
Speaker 2: We must bring in the whole counsel of God.
1:05:23
Speaker 3: It is the reason why I respect as Salupa support
1:05:26
you for the variety of ministers with the various expressions
1:05:31
of graces that if you sit down with all humility
1:05:34
and listen, you will receive from everyone. And the goal
1:05:39
is to be able to bring together all of the
1:05:42
dimensions that are required for your holistic development.
1:05:48
Speaker 2: Are we together now?
1:05:53
Speaker 3: There me, if the whole world listens to only your
1:06:00
a sellman, I will create a dangerous error that a
1:06:04
generation will pay for it, because it is not every
1:06:07
dimension of God he has shown me. No matter how
1:06:10
illed I am, he will not show me everything.
1:06:13
Speaker 2: It's called the limitation of the body.
1:06:15
Speaker 3: He did it intentionally to force us to need and
1:06:18
respect one another. Reverend Julian Cula, here I hope you
1:06:24
are learning now. Reverend Julian Cula has a Hemaya anointing.
1:06:28
Speaker 2: I preach for him every year.
1:06:31
Speaker 3: When you really want to build systems and organizations business wise, Well,
1:06:36
listen to me after you have listened to him. Are
1:06:40
we together now?
1:06:41
Speaker 2: You see? Doctors get it right. Only preachers fail.
1:06:47
Speaker 3: Doctors will tell you I'm a consultant pediatrician. I'm a
1:06:51
consultant surgeon. The nature of this thing. I cannot hold
1:06:55
you because of my ego. I refer you to a
1:06:58
department or a word. It doesn't stop the person from
1:07:02
being a consultant. It's only in the churche that we
1:07:05
rather the person die because you don't carry the healing anointing. Listen,
1:07:14
why am I turning this to a past those conference?
1:07:16
Speaker 2: God, you forgive me, forgive me. Listen. Let me tell
1:07:20
you this.
1:07:23
Speaker 3: Never trivialized dimension that is not working in your life. No,
1:07:29
just because it is not working in your life does
1:07:32
not mean you should trivialize it. Your heart must be
1:07:35
open to receive. I came from the North. Listen to me,
1:07:39
and I thank God for my background with the Evangelicals
1:07:45
and the Anglican It gave the foundation for moral excellence
1:07:50
and a modest approach to ministry. However, as God began
1:07:55
to build me and the call of God came upon
1:07:57
my life.
1:07:58
Speaker 2: I saw a deficiency. Are we together?
1:08:01
Speaker 3: That there were certain dimensions that we were not privileged
1:08:06
to enjoy. As far as the ministry within the Northeast concern,
1:08:10
I would have remained there in pride, and that effect
1:08:14
would have been widespread today. I hope you know that
1:08:17
almost every error starts from pride, because the spirit of
1:08:21
God is always there to caution, always there to check balance.
1:08:25
But the spirit of God does not wrestle with man indefinitely.
1:08:29
Let me tell you how God works with men. When
1:08:32
a man works perpetually in error, God begins to help.
1:08:36
Speaker 2: Correct you for the sake of your life. When he finds.
1:08:39
Speaker 3: Out that that error is affecting other people, he will
1:08:44
work on you and call other people to work on you.
1:08:47
If he finds out that you have maintained a state
1:08:50
of rebellion, he will leave you and transfer your bishopric
1:08:53
to another and start another work. So you will find
1:08:56
out that the motions of ministry is there, but the.
1:08:59
Speaker 2: Great has left. Are we together now?
1:09:04
Speaker 3: The day that the day David was anointed, Saul still
1:09:12
sat on his throne. Yet the anointing had come on, David,
1:09:16
Are we together now?
1:09:18
Speaker 2: My prayer for you is.
1:09:19
Speaker 3: That no body here will be replaced in the name
1:09:23
of Jesus Christ. So my call to men and women
1:09:26
of God there is a clarion call. It is time
1:09:30
to look beyond ourselves, our ego, our ministry, what I have,
1:09:35
what I do not have. Let us love the body
1:09:38
of Christ more than our reputation, and let us be
1:09:41
comfortable with the fact that number one, God cannot use
1:09:46
one man alone. It is the body of Christ. Imagine
1:09:50
the body of Christ without past upod you. Imagine the
1:09:53
body of Christ without wolf Back. Imagine the body of
1:09:56
Christ without Reverend Julian. Are we together now? When you
1:10:00
have that orientation and you see, let me tell you this.
1:10:03
I don't know why God has decided I was forgiveness
1:10:06
before I sit down. Away together, members, stop joining the
1:10:14
heads of men of God.
1:10:15
Speaker 2: Stop it.
1:10:18
Speaker 3: It is affecting the pace of God's program. There are
1:10:22
people who pride in just joining the heads of people,
1:10:25
and they watch it like a movie and rejoice at
1:10:27
the expense of their own spiritual growth. By the time
1:10:31
you come and begin to sing and say, Saul killed
1:10:35
one thousand and David killed ten thousand.
1:10:39
Speaker 2: What do you think Saul would do to David by
1:10:42
the time you say.
1:10:43
Speaker 3: I am for Paul and I am for Apoulos, forgetting
1:10:47
that only God.
1:10:48
Speaker 2: Brings the increase. Are we together?
1:10:54
Speaker 3: I love the work God has given me, but I
1:10:56
love the Body.
1:10:57
Speaker 2: Of Christ better.
1:11:00
Speaker 3: The growth of the body is more preferred than the
1:11:03
growth of my own work.
1:11:08
Speaker 2: Someone learning so the call.
1:11:13
Speaker 3: I'm diagnosing that the faith problem has come largely from
1:11:17
the pulpit and that man of God.
1:11:20
Speaker 2: It is time for us to take responsibility.
1:11:23
Speaker 3: I am convinced that one year under a structured teaching
1:11:28
ministry should be able to duel the believer to a
1:11:31
level of commendable stature where you defy being tost to
1:11:35
and fro. Any man of God that has at least
1:11:40
two years of structured mentorship with members and cannot produce
1:11:45
quality believers should go for a retreat.
1:11:48
Speaker 2: It's not an insult, is the truth.
1:11:50
Speaker 3: Even if that man of God is called Joshua Selman,
1:11:56
So that we all rejoice over walkback, and then the
1:11:58
meeting is over, and then lives remain only.
1:12:01
Speaker 2: To come back.
1:12:01
Speaker 3: Twenty twenty six, I forbid that over your life in
1:12:05
the name of Jesus Christ, that a man of God
1:12:07
receives inspiration from this and goes back to say, you
1:12:10
know what, I'm tired of buying designers. Let me go
1:12:14
to a library and buy some old books and sit
1:12:18
down and say, what did the Father see when they
1:12:21
travel to Tulsa, Oklahoma?
1:12:22
Speaker 2: What did God show them there? Open my eyes, O God,
1:12:27
let me see.
1:12:27
Speaker 3: Something and carry genuine grace that can save my generation. Light,
1:12:35
Save my generation, light, save my generation.
1:12:39
Speaker 2: Light that in one year we.
1:12:41
Speaker 3: Will raise an army of robust believers, people of stature
1:12:47
that when they answer the person and say, okay, what
1:12:50
you're a pastor of what you and I'm not a
1:12:52
pastor what?
1:12:53
Speaker 2: I'm a witness? I have been trained that.
1:12:56
Speaker 3: My journey starts from being a nonbeliever to one infant,
1:13:01
to a matchhort believer, a transformed believer and empowered believer,
1:13:05
and then a weakness. And I have gone through that curriculum.
1:13:09
Speaker 2: In the spirit. Are we together.
1:13:16
Speaker 3: We must begin to bring the various dimensions of the
1:13:20
kingdom required. The Bible says, now, when the day of
1:13:24
Pentacos was fully come, look at the character that ashed
1:13:28
the next.
1:13:28
Speaker 2: Move of God.
1:13:29
Speaker 3: They were to get in one accord One accord does
1:13:34
not mean saying the same thing. One accord means a
1:13:37
green in spirit. Now, don't get me wrong. When we
1:13:42
call for unity, unity does not mean embracing anything.
1:13:48
Speaker 2: Are we together now?
1:13:50
Speaker 3: But to understand that if there is a deficiency in
1:13:54
my life, if I'm raising people who are anointed, I'm
1:13:58
raising people who are spirit trouble. They are poor and broke.
1:14:02
They are doing, but they're in trouble. Are we together?
1:14:05
Marriages are breaking because of financial issues. There is a
1:14:09
grace invested in Reverend Julian. If I can add to
1:14:13
the dimension God has given me the dimension God has
1:14:16
given him, it will bring completion. Can I tell you
1:14:20
when God says everything is possible, it is because of
1:14:24
the variety of light he as invested in the body.
1:14:27
It is not possible with one ministry. It is not
1:14:30
possible with one man, but together it is possible. So
1:14:36
past uppord, you plus Reverend Julian, plus the men and
1:14:40
the women who have served.
1:14:41
Speaker 2: God's grace here will produce.
1:14:43
Speaker 3: A more holistic believer. When the devil wants to destroy
1:14:48
your life, he makes you to ignore the investment of
1:14:51
God's grace that has been placed upon one, especially.
1:14:55
Speaker 2: For your growth.
1:14:58
Speaker 3: Allelujah, my final call. My time is up. I hope
1:15:03
someone has learned something. Believe us most invest in building
1:15:11
their spiritual understanding.
1:15:12
Speaker 2: Please hear me.
1:15:14
Speaker 3: The faith problem cannot be solved by superstition. The faith
1:15:19
problem cannot be solved just by claiming. There is the
1:15:23
business of exposing yourself as an act of responsibility to
1:15:30
strategic teachings that build you. You see, you have a
1:15:35
Bible like a student has a textbook, but there is
1:15:38
a need for a teacher. Nobody becomes a doctor jobs
1:15:42
by reading a book. You can become a traditional practitioner,
1:15:49
but you don't become a credited Just like you will
1:15:52
need to be helped and to be trained. Are we together?
1:15:56
Believe us, most invest in fact. Say this af time.
1:15:58
You're as loud as you can. Saying the name of Jesus,
1:16:02
I receive grace to invest in my spiritual understanding. Saying
1:16:09
the name of Jesus, I receive grace to probe my
1:16:15
spiritual convictions. Say it again, I receive grace to probe
1:16:21
my spiritual convictions.
1:16:24
Speaker 2: Hear me. I'm rapping up. If you are poor, don't.
1:16:28
Speaker 3: Try where the issue of prosperity. You are not getting it.
1:16:32
Humble yourself, find the carriers of light in that area.
1:16:36
God to them that cell, and buy bye with meekness.
1:16:40
By with humility, add prosperity to a ministry with integrity,
1:16:45
and it's like adding patrol to fire.
1:16:47
Speaker 2: You will bond better. Are we together now?
1:16:50
Speaker 3: If you are lacking in character and you are prayerful,
1:16:54
find one worth at the world that can bring holiness
1:16:58
and stability.
1:17:00
Speaker 2: Save it with humility.
1:17:02
Speaker 3: Diagnose the areas of failure in your life and search
1:17:06
for light bearers in that area.
1:17:08
Speaker 2: Do it first, remed it a.
1:17:10
Speaker 3: Mistake so that you don't transfer that error to others. Father,
1:17:16
if you are doing well at home, don't blame Nigeria.
1:17:20
There are people in Nigeria who are excelling. Are we
1:17:23
together now? Go back and find the world that produces light.
1:17:27
Faith for anything comes where the light in that area comes.
1:17:32
Whatever is missing in your life, stop wasting your time
1:17:35
sweeping when there is no light. Your first assignment is
1:17:38
to light a candle. And when that candle is lit,
1:17:41
get a broom and start searching. You will find that
1:17:44
treasure there. Are you ready to pray? My call for
1:17:47
you is that you begin to press, press, press, Man
1:17:53
of God. Press spend more time with God that administrations
1:17:57
press buy books their teaching. I know you sat down
1:18:01
here listening to wlfback Life, But if I were you
1:18:04
after the conference, get the teachings, especially the ones that
1:18:08
relate to the area of concern. Come around it. Faith
1:18:13
comes by hearing. When you find the voice that speaks well,
1:18:17
then hear well. The hearing that brings awareness, the hearing
1:18:20
that brings conviction. Man of God, it is time for
1:18:23
the next level in your life. It is time for
1:18:26
the next level of your journey in the spirit. It's
1:18:29
time for you to soar. But nobody sworth in ignorance.
1:18:33
You will not enter the plane of a pilot who
1:18:35
does not know what is doing.
1:18:38
Speaker 2: You can understand the listen.
1:18:41
Speaker 3: Whether or not a plane lifts, the loss of aerodynamics
1:18:46
still stand, but it takes the understanding of the pilot
1:18:49
to fly. It not the existence of the laws. The
1:18:52
laws are always there, even when a plane is grounded.
1:18:56
The laws don't change. It is the understanding of the
1:18:59
pilot that translates those laws to become results that take
1:19:05
the plane to the air.
1:19:05
Speaker 2: Are we together?
1:19:07
Speaker 3: Even if you fail with your life, God is still faithful.
1:19:10
But the dimension of spiritual reality. You luck can affect
1:19:15
every aspect of your life. Can I learn one minute
1:19:17
from us as we pray, Please rise upon your feet.
1:19:26
You come to a point of persuasion by the spirit
1:19:30
of God. By the spirit of God. I'm tired of
1:19:34
guessing my work with God. I'm tired of guessing how
1:19:37
to winn in ministry. I'm tired of guessing how to
1:19:40
do business to excel. I'm tired of guessing how to
1:19:43
work in power and work in the annointing. There is
1:19:46
a gentleman, there is an ancient path. We are not
1:19:49
the first to follow that path. Many have followed that path.
1:19:53
They followed it onto grace, onto glory, ordinary men, hon
1:19:57
assuming people. They follow the path a part light. It
1:20:01
was light that guided the magi, the wise men until
1:20:04
they found Jesus. They did not know the place what
1:20:08
they saw that light, and the light guided them. The
1:20:11
light of God can guide the man into a dimension
1:20:14
in the spirit, a dimension of exploits. Are you still
1:20:17
waiting for me to give you a prayer point or
1:20:19
are you crying onto the Lord? We have just one minute.
1:20:23
Please let it be from the depth of your heart.
1:20:25
I desire light. I desire light. I cry out my
1:20:31
desperation for the other dimensions that are still wanting.
1:20:36
Speaker 2: In my life.
1:20:37
Speaker 3: I want to manifest bybuf faith. I want to be
1:20:42
fully persuaded, fully persuaded, Fully persuaded that God can heal,
1:20:50
fully perssuaded that God liveds fully passuaded that doors can open,
1:20:56
fully passuaded.
1:20:58
Speaker 2: That I am the lift and of the Lord.
1:21:00
Speaker 3: Fully persuaded that He has died for my sins, and
1:21:03
I am the righteousness of God in Christ. I'm tired
1:21:07
of moving left and right dependent on what messages preached.
1:21:12
I receive grace for stability. Someone pray, Fully persuaded that
1:21:19
my God is able, Fully persuaded that I am the Righteous,
1:21:24
and so it is well with me.
1:21:26
Speaker 2: Fully persuaded that all my.
1:21:28
Speaker 3: Beginning be small, my latter an shall greatly increase, Fully
1:21:33
persuaded that the works of my hands are blessed. Fully
1:21:37
persuaded that the Holy Spirit is guiding me. Fully persuaded
1:21:42
that I'm a well watered garden.
1:21:44
Speaker 2: Fully persuaded.
1:21:45
Speaker 3: Someone pray, I shake the spirit of doubt.
1:22:00
Speaker 2: It's time to command results. Time to command results.
1:22:04
Speaker 3: Exploits by the spirit worship us pray, exploits.
1:22:08
Speaker 2: By the Spirit.
1:22:10
Speaker 3: I am fully persuaded that there is a spirit in man,
1:22:14
and the inspiration of the Almighty makes men of understanding.
1:22:18
I am fully persuaded that the true live deeds of
1:22:21
every nation is open onto me.
