- 3:03what is right or wrong to give an opinion between
- 3:07what is right or what or wrong and then lastly
- 3:12disputations disputations disputations disputations
- 3:26so designing of spirits we start and saying what
- 3:30is what designing right what is designing designing
- 3:35is to separate to distinguish to determine to
- 3:38give judgment right you want to judge to know
- 3:41this is right and this is what is wrong you want
- 3:46to separate this is good and this is what bad
- 3:50or this is evil right good so you want to give
- 3:53an opinion so i think this matter This is where
- 3:58I believe it should be placed. Right? So every
- 4:03time, let's assume we're getting into an apartment,
- 4:06a new house. Right? And then, you know, with
- 4:09my wife, let's take for instance, right? With
- 4:14housemates, they don't care where the fridge
- 4:16is. It should be in the ceiling. Nobody cares.
- 4:18As far as you can open it and take water, nobody
- 4:21cares. But, you know, with your damn self, there
- 4:25has to be care. the position of the fridge you
- 4:28know where the microwave how it should look and
- 4:32all those things you see so that ability for
- 4:36them to get into the city room and so i think
- 4:39this table needs to shift and then they go and
- 4:41say ah there's a line small line push it again
- 4:46push it perfect that is designing that is what
- 4:50designing is that word what designing because
- 4:54you are giving a what a judgment you are picking
- 4:58out to know where something is placed is it right
- 5:03or what or is it wrong do we know what designing
- 5:07is do we know what designing is perfect good
- 5:11hebrews chapter 5 verse 14 now let's get a couple
- 5:14of scriptures where we see that use hebrews chapter
- 5:195 verse 14 Hebrews 5 verse 14 And I read Seeing
- 5:31that Sorry But strong meat belongeth to them
- 5:40that are of what? Of full age Even those who
- 5:44by what? Reason of what? Use, have their what?
- 5:51Exercise to do what? To design what? both and
- 5:57what good and evil can you see that so as many
- 6:02that are full of edge even them that are able
- 6:06to use their senses to give judgment between
- 6:09what what is good and what is what evil to separate
- 6:13good and evil to distinguish good and evil to
- 6:18pick out on good and evil perfect good so matthew
- 6:2216 3 matthew 16 3 Matthew 16 verse 3 Matthew
- 6:3216 3 see what the scripture says and in the morning
- 6:35it will be foul weather today for the sky is
- 6:40red and what lowering all ye hypocrites ye can
- 6:44discern the face of what ye can discern the what
- 6:49but can ye not discern the signs of what of end
- 6:54times 1 Corinthians chapter 6 verse 5 1 Corinthians
- 7:01chapter 6 verse 5 and Romans chapter 14 verse
- 7:041 So you can add that as extra scriptures 1 Corinthians
- 7:096 verse 5 Romans chapter 14 verse 1 So we can
- 7:15say that designing of spirit means to distinguish
- 7:18spirits To distinguish what? Spirits to distinguish
- 7:24spirits to recognize spirits, to separate spirits,
- 7:28to determine spirits, to give judgment about
- 7:31spirits. Amen? So you see, this is kind of different
- 7:37from all the things that we've been discussing
- 7:38so far regarding the gifts of the Holy Ghost.
- 7:41Amen? Yeah, so to recognize spirits, to distinguish
- 7:45spirits, to separate spirits, to determine spirits,
- 7:49to give judgment about what? About spirits. the
- 7:56gift of the designing of spirits gives us supernatural
- 8:02insight into the realm of spirits it gives us
- 8:07supernatural what? insight into the realm of
- 8:11what? of spirits it gives us insight into the
- 8:17realm of what? of spirits so the Holy Ghost supernaturally
- 8:27gives us access into the realm of what of spirits
- 8:31this teaching is important this morning it will
- 8:37reveal the kind of spirit that is involved in
- 8:41any operation or behind an operation it will
- 8:46reveal the kind of what of spirit that is behind
- 8:50what an operation a manifestation it reveals
- 8:55what the kind of spirit that is behind what an
- 8:59operation a manifestation of supernatural knowledge
- 9:07or power it reveals the kind of spirit that is
- 9:12behind an operation a manifestation of a supernatural
- 9:15knowledge or what or power so what i mean by
- 9:19supernatural knowledge or power is that now you
- 9:22can be able to distinguish even when somebody
- 9:24just randomly meets you inside the school bus
- 9:27or meets you in the market and then begins to
- 9:30call your name let's assume this turkish man
- 9:34just walks up to you and then begins to call
- 9:36your name samuel you are from nigeria you are
- 9:39from adamawa you are you are living on dtb roads
- 9:42number 36 or number 29 or number 50 you have
- 9:48this and this and this and then you cannot like
- 9:51serious first this guy is white secondly he has
- 9:58never been to africa you are sure about that
- 10:02yeah so english is not good my brother you know
- 10:07and then he starts to speak the turkish english
- 10:09maybe he mixes it with some turkish and then
- 10:14you look what is nevertheless however he mentions
- 10:20the things and then you go how did this guy know
- 10:24the person is not from any cf so the person will
- 10:31just kneel down papa prophesy because if you
- 10:35are from any cf you can do that amen or maybe
- 10:41you will take number because you have found whom
- 10:44now knows all the details about your life so
- 10:48what is happening is that that man is exhibiting
- 10:51some form of supernatural power because naturally
- 10:55he will not know this information amen so now
- 11:00you have an ability right or is in your hands
- 11:04or is in your responsibility to be able to distinguish
- 11:07is this of god or is not what of god why because
- 11:13you are seeing an operation or a manifestation
- 11:16that is not normal Ḥaleluyah Ḥaleluyah Ḥaleluyah
- 11:23Ḥaleluyah Ḥaleluyah Ḥaleluyah Ḥaleluyah Ḥaleluyah

- 11:31Ḥaleluyah Ḥaleluyah Ḥaleluyah Ḥaleluyah we want
- 11:37to pick out on it and know is this of God or
- 11:40let me make something practical so that i can
- 11:41take home now this illustration and then we are
- 11:44here and then we say can everybody just play
- 11:46in the holy ghost and give interpretation and
- 11:48leave these guys go come on the tongues are powerful
- 11:55and as they give you an interpretation and then
- 11:58the guys goes giving an interpretation and then
- 12:02suddenly the whole group just stands I know some
- 12:08people who just touch one another face. What's
- 12:13happening here? You see? Let me say something.
- 12:17You see that thing that has made you to quickly
- 12:19start tapping each other and start eyeing each
- 12:22other, right? Something is happening where? From
- 12:27the inside. We had this long prayer session and
- 12:30before the meeting and then someone just, one
- 12:33of us just came and say, you see that brother?
- 12:35Don't allow him to say anything here. we didn't
- 12:37know what he meant so we sustained the atmosphere
- 12:40pray pray pray pray pray pray pray pray pray
- 12:42and then we now give an opportunity for for for
- 12:46for people to speak what they've received and
- 12:48then the guy goes i see the currency of zimbabwe
- 12:52the economy of zimbabwe and then he said some
- 12:56funny funny things sorry most of us were laughing
- 12:59i don't know why we're laughing that day but
- 13:02you know it made sense to us why he caution us
- 13:05from the beginning you know why because he has
- 13:08already prior to this meeting has already designed
- 13:10this person and This person coming to that meeting.
- 13:14He was even surprised to see him in the meeting
- 13:16Amen, so ahead of time. He has already given
- 13:19us what and information about the manifestation
- 13:22We're going to receive and the operation we what
- 13:25we will see glory to God hallelujah So three
- 13:32weeks we can tell whether the source of that
- 13:37spirit is human divine that is from god or an
- 13:43angel or is satanic through designing of spirit
- 13:49we can be able to distinguish we can be able
- 13:51to tell whether that kind of manifestation whether
- 13:55that kind of operation whether the source is
- 13:58what is human is divine that is from god or an
- 14:03angel or what or satanic And so, in designing
- 14:12of spirit, we judge the spirit by God's word.
- 14:16Hallelujah. We judge the spirit by what? By God's
- 14:22word, by the knowledge of God's word. We subject
- 14:24the spirit and their operation to God's word
- 14:27so that we can distinguish them. We judge the
- 14:30spirit, we subject them to God's word so that
- 14:33we can what? So that we can be able to pick out
- 14:37on them or know them or recognize them. So what
- 14:40is the purpose of these gifts? The purpose of
- 14:43these gifts, one, is to lift the veil that covers
- 14:48the unseen spiritual world. The purpose of these
- 14:52gifts is what? Is to lift the veil. You know
- 14:55we are talking about a kind of operation, right?
- 14:58A kind of manifestation, is it not? So when we
- 15:01see the manifestation, we see the operation because
- 15:04now normally, people naturally, people will just
- 15:08receive it. Like I always say jokingly, in the
- 15:13prayer thing, that one of these days, we will
- 15:16just take everybody to one secondary school.
- 15:19We don't know, I don't know whether they have
- 15:21that. You know, in left K, I always use left
- 15:23K. And then in the secondary school, they now
- 15:26send a secular to us, that these children, they
- 15:29just feel there is something demonic. Let me
- 15:32tell you, everybody in the world, whether they
- 15:34are safe or not, they know what demons are. Everybody
- 15:37knows what evil spirits are. right and then they
- 15:42may not know God but you know what evil spirits
- 15:43are and then we now take everybody and we say
- 15:48these two their own when it starts they shout
- 15:52like lions you cast them out you these two when
- 15:58they start they hop on people and tear their
- 16:01clothes tear make marks you cast them out and
- 16:06then we arrive into the place and all the students
- 16:09are ha ha ha how's gilding this how's gilding
- 16:12this you know and you're wondering so how why
- 16:15did they bring us here these guys are all normal
- 16:17and then suddenly now we just change gears you
- 16:26know spirits are very amazing demonic spirits
- 16:28are amazing so we change gears and then maybe
- 16:32one just walks up to you and said ha ho jam and
- 16:35starts laughing planning to hop up on you you
- 16:40know and then the guy just go what will you do
- 16:51i just somebody say i will run you came to cast
- 16:54them you're running it's easier to recognize
- 17:03an evil spirit or a good spirit when you see
- 17:07their manifestation but it's very difficult when
- 17:10now you don't see any what manifestation and
- 17:14yet they are in operation hallelujah so that
- 17:19means that the holy spirit has to give us access
- 17:23there has to be an unveiling amen so that point
- 17:27that i mentioned now there has to be a lifting
- 17:29of the veil to uncover that what that spiritual
- 17:33world to the believer spirit number one number
- 17:38two the purpose of giving of this gift to the
- 17:42believer is to enable us see as god sees hallelujah
- 17:47god is spirit amen so to enable the believer
- 17:51to see as god what as god sees so the believer
- 17:57will not judge things only by his side but rather
- 18:00also he judges by what by the ability of the
- 18:04spirit of God that is within him. Hallelujah!
- 18:07Praise God! So, it helps us to be able to see
- 18:13beyond the outward appearance and to see the
- 18:17spirit that is behind an operation. Three, this
- 18:22gift helps to protect us from deception. It protects
- 18:29us from what? Deception. Why? Because sometimes
- 18:32will parade himself to us as what as angel of
- 18:37what of light hallelujah four to help us know
- 18:46the spirit behind some problems affecting people
- 18:50and to be able to help them to help us know the
- 18:55spirit behind what some problems affecting what
- 18:58people you see i'm using the word some problems
- 19:01because some problems are not spirits hallelujah
- 19:04probably the person has taken too much of colorado
- 19:08right arizona goskolo and all the things i've
- 19:14got scored his mind colorado his brain arizona
- 19:19his soul so that kind of a thing is not spiritual
- 19:26though there is a spirit behind it amen but we
- 19:30know this person subjected himself to what to
- 19:33this kind of thing they call us with pastor ima
- 19:36i carry pastor ima pastor if i was not available
- 19:39so at least pastor ima with me we can be able
- 19:41to hold the guy down so we went to see the guy

- 21:27that some problems you see i mentioned what some
- 21:32problems so some problems affecting people so
- 21:37which means we will need designing of spirit
- 21:38to know that there are certain manifestations
- 21:41and operations that we see in people's lives
- 21:44that are not natural hallelujah and now we have
- 21:49an ability to do what to help them then the last
- 21:52now right the last now number five the purpose
- 21:55of these gifts for the believer is that to bring

- 23:23designing of spirit what is not we have defined
- 23:28designing right what designing of spirit is the

- 23:36of spirit is not that's what we are talking about
- 23:39are you writing What designing of spirit is not
- 23:45one It is not the gift of discernment You know

- 24:12see there is nothing in the scripture called
- 24:19what gift of discernment never what we call gift
- 24:28of discernment or discernment is what is called
- 24:31word of knowledge In fact, for the first time,
- 24:37I am learning that instead of saying, Lord, increase
- 24:40my gift of discernment, I should pray that, Lord,
- 24:44I want to see more of the manifestation of the
- 24:48word of knowledge in my life. Hallelujah. Because
- 24:53in the scriptures, there is nothing called what?
- 24:56Descendment, gift of discernment. Praise God.

- 25:07been able to discuss, reverential gifts, all
- 25:11of them help you to judge, to discern. There
- 25:15is nothing called gift of what? Discernment.
- 25:19So, discerning of spirit is not what? Gift of
- 25:24discernment. So many a times what people call

- 32:38what happens is that these guys are trained.
- 32:41They study patterns. So because they study patterns,
- 32:46those things guide them. in trying to probe and
- 32:50restructure a man's mind and then after they

- 34:21to teach on god's word so we don't need to drag
- 34:24you aside so we expect that you should be what
- 34:27you should be writing amen so now have you said
- 34:32all these things the last thing i said is not
- 34:34a gift of discernment of what devils or evil
- 34:36spirit what primarily only no so there are evil
- 34:43spirits in this we had we had a challenge with
- 34:45one brother he just came one day met me i was
- 34:48walking to the teacher hospital he says sir in
- 34:52this church all the sisters have jezebel spirits
- 34:56the pastors are laughing they're knowing he says
- 35:01i just i just sense they have jezebel spirits
- 35:04ah he said all of you are laughing like it's
- 35:09the same way i laugh you have spirits for you
- 35:23to know that you have spirits however if you
- 35:30are a good spirit you'll still be here seated
- 35:32right he's not here and i don't know whether
- 35:35he even attends a local church god bless his
- 35:38darling heart So, what are the spirits that can
- 35:46be discerned in the discerning of spirits? What
- 35:49are the spirits that can be discerned? What are
- 35:53the spirits that can be what? That can be discerned.
- 35:59The word spirit, the word spirit, I put a summary
- 36:03to all this now from this part. The word spirit
- 36:05is translated from the Greek word pneuma, pneuma.
- 36:10p -n -e -u -m -a p -n -e -u -m -a newma greek
- 36:18word newma and in hebrew rua and in hebrew what
- 36:24rua rua r -u -a -h in greek newma in hebrew what
- 36:32rua r -u -a -h amen so let's do some studies
- 36:38more now I checked the BLB, KJV version, right?
- 36:43That word spirit is mentioned about 456 times.
- 36:49There's a reason why I'm saying that now. 400
- 36:51and what? 56 times. So write it down. That's
- 36:57from Genesis to Revelation now. 456 times. So
- 37:00you can cross check that at home. So the word
- 37:07Numa or what? or Rua is used to represent the
- 37:13human spirit the human spirit in these 456 times
- 37:20there is human spirit human spirit about 160
- 37:26to 180 times don't worry you don't need to write
- 37:28all those things human spirit number one number
- 37:31two supernatural beings such as angels supernatural
- 37:38beings such as what angels number three demons
- 37:47or unclean spirits demons or what unclean spirits
- 37:54or you can write evil spirits then we have the
- 38:01spirit of god holy spirit the spirit of god holy
- 38:06spirit The spirit of God what? Holy spirit and
- 38:14lastly you could find also where the word Numa
- 38:18or Rua is used as wind or breath Wind or what?
- 38:26or breath So the context in which the word Numa
- 38:33or Rua is used will determine the kind of spirit
- 38:37that particular scripture is communicating yes
- 38:41so the context right the context in that 456
- 38:46times whether human spirit whether supernatural
- 38:49beings as angels whether what whether demons
- 38:53evil spirit unclean spirit whether what holy
- 38:56spirit the spirit of god right or in other words
- 39:00wind or breath so the context in which newma
- 39:03or rua is used will determine the kind of spirit
- 39:06the scripture is what communicating about hallelujah
- 39:10yes so now we'll just write these scriptures
- 39:12and on Wednesday we're going to build on it because
- 39:15by the time we are done with these scriptures
- 39:16from the gospel to the arts and all true right
- 39:20we will now identify the spirits and then be
- 39:24able to practically uh practice that hallelujah
