- 4:29appreciate my dear friend and brother pastor notth God bless.
- 4:32Speaker 1: You and your dear wife.
- 4:34Speaker 8: In the name of Jesus Christ. As I prayed for
- 4:41my session and what I'll be sharing tonight, the Holy
- 4:44Spirit minister to me that this message will affect so
- 4:49many people so deeply tonight. This is what the Lord
- 4:52told me. And let me plead that we open our
- 4:55hearts within the time that we have. The Lord truly
- 4:59wants to speak to us tonight, and I believe that
- 5:01He's gathered us here tonight to speak to us in
- 5:04a very personal way. Away in agreement, can you lift
- 5:08your hands in one minute and ask that the Lord
- 5:11will grant you clarity and understanding. Go ahead and pray,
- 5:17Go ahead and pray. Shalli brandakatoskdivalaso gratis chiat ever, we
- 5:24thank you. Our hearts are open, clarity and understanding, in
- 5:34the name of Jesus Christ. Please be seated. Thank you
- 5:38again for this opportunity. I do not take for granted
- 5:42every opportunity I have to bring the life and the
- 5:46world of God to his people. The only way God's
- 5:50people will grow and mature in the things of the
- 5:52Spirit is through the sound exegesis of doctrine, the communication
- 5:59of the truth of God's word, and conferences like this
- 6:03afford us dedicated platforms to feast upon the light of
- 6:08the world of God until we are transformed. The Bible
- 6:11declares that as we behold Him as in a mirror,
- 6:15it says, we are changed from one dimension of glory
- 6:20to the other, even as by the spirit of God
- 6:24some twenty three some twenty three two scriptures. And then
- 6:30I'll begin to teach who start from verse one some
- 6:35twenty three.
- 6:36Speaker 1: This is the sum of David.
- 6:39Speaker 8: And if you know anything about David the Psalmist, he
- 6:42was quite an interesting personality in scripture because he was
- 6:47a man who worked with God commendably well, and his
- 6:52life had a mix of several experiences, and so most
- 6:57of his writings were communications of his personal experiences a
- 7:03well together. You would seldom hear him write and information
- 7:06he got from someone else. Most of his his his
- 7:12writings and his songs, and all that he wrote in
- 7:15the Book of Sam's there were largely his experiences. He
- 7:19wanted people to learn from his experiences. So let's start
- 7:22Psalm twenty three and verse one. The Lord is my shepherd.
- 7:28I shall not want the same one who is my
- 7:34shepherd makes me to lie down in green pastures. He
- 7:39leaded me beside stilwaters. Verse three, he restoret my soul.
- 7:46Take note of that we're going to dwell on that tonight.
- 7:51He restoret my soul. But then he also leaded me
- 7:56in the parts of righteousness for his namesake. YEA, though
- 8:05I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
- 8:10where is the location of this place? That there is
- 8:15such a place called the valley of the Shadow of death?
- 8:21It says, even when I am there, I will fear
- 8:24no evil. Why for thou at with me? Not because
- 8:28you took me out of that place. You came in
- 8:31to the situation. For thou art with me, Thy rod
- 8:36and thy staff they comfort me. Verse five. Thou preparest
- 8:41a table before me in the presence of mine enemies.
- 8:45Thou ann test my head with oil my cop runnet
- 8:48over verse six. Now, surely goodness and mercy shall follow
- 8:54me all the days of my life, and I will
- 8:57dwell in the house of the Lord. For please go
- 9:01to verse three. Verse three captures my title for tonight.
- 9:06He restoed my soul. I'm teaching along the lines of
- 9:15the theme that a man can be revived so that
- 9:20he can revive others. He was Apostle Paul, who made
- 9:24a very interesting story. This will be the second scripture
- 9:27an interesting statement. Second Corinthians, Chapter one. Our read verse
- 9:32three and four. Second Corinthians, Chapter one, Verse three and four.
- 9:36Our read verse three, and then our plead that we
- 9:38read verse four in concert. Ready, blessed be God, even
- 9:43the father of our lord, Jesus Christ, the father of
- 9:47messys and the God of all comfort. Verse four. Are
- 9:52you ready who comforted us in all our tribulation, that
- 9:59we may be able to comfort them which are in
- 10:04any trouble, how by the comfort wherein we ourselves are
- 10:10comforted of God. Paul is saying something very interesting.
- 10:14Speaker 6: Here.
- 10:15Speaker 1: He's saying, there is something.
- 10:17Speaker 8: God does to a man, and that whilst God is
- 10:20doing it to that man, he's looking beyond that man.
- 10:24He's looking at those who will be the beneficiaries of
- 10:28that experience.
- 10:31Speaker 1: Are we together now, yes?
- 10:35Speaker 8: The Psalmist gleaning from his information, he saying, Look, there
- 10:39were certain situations in my life that necessitated superior levels
- 10:44of intervention. And I have learned something about God, and
- 10:49I think it will be evil to keep that information
- 10:51to myself.
- 10:52Speaker 1: And so he freely communicates from the wealth and the
- 10:56depth of his pain and his experiences.
- 11:00Speaker 8: And here Paul, in the same vein, is telling us
- 11:03that there are times that we pass through seasons in
- 11:07our lives, and that God is able to uniquely reveal
- 11:10himself and comfort us, and that that comfort can become
- 11:15strength for us, because surely we will meet others who
- 11:20would be in that similar situation, and that if and
- 11:23when we find them, we will be able to draw
- 11:26from the archive of our pain, our experiences and bring
- 11:30comfort to them.
- 11:32Speaker 1: He restored my soul.
- 11:38Speaker 8: Allelujah. The Bible did not leave us in the dark
- 11:44as to the fact that our fate adventure will capture
- 11:49several kinds of experiences. Jesus himself spoke about the possibility
- 11:55of having tribulations, having persecureus having negative and unfavorable experiences.
- 12:03In John chapter sixteen, particularly verse starty three. Jesus himself
- 12:08was speaking and is said, in this world, not outside
- 12:11of this world. It says these things I have spoken
- 12:14to you, that ye might have peace in the world.
- 12:18Speaker 1: Ye shall have tribulation. But it says, be of good chaer.
- 12:24Speaker 8: He leaves you with an information that can give you
- 12:26peace even in the midst of storms. Most believers do
- 12:32not understand the entire span of the faith journey of
- 12:36the believer.
- 12:37Speaker 1: I understand the joy of salvation.
- 12:40Speaker 8: I understand the joy that comes when you have results,
- 12:44when things work well in your life. But most believers
- 12:47have not been taught what to do when seasons change
- 12:51and when and if they are negative. So when believers
- 12:55are confronted with seasons that are unfavorable, does not matter
- 12:59what form it appears, they become broken, They become discouraged.
- 13:04Some become utterly confused as to what to do, and
- 13:09it is at such times that Satan comes in because
- 13:12his assignment is to attempt to let you see through
- 13:17your experiences that God is unfaithful, so he will not
- 13:21meet you at every time.
- 13:23Speaker 1: He will wait for these moments and these seasons. I
- 13:26will learn it now.
- 13:29Speaker 8: It is a very dangerous thing for a believer to
- 13:32pass through on favorable seasons uninformed, because the casualty that
- 13:38can come out of that season can discourage other believers,
- 13:42and the victory that comes out of that season can
- 13:45also strengthen that belief. So the season, both God and
- 13:49Satan is interested in the season. Why am I preaching
- 13:54this because I believe that there are people here sincerely
- 13:59for God to have put this message in my spirit
- 14:01and insist that I teach it.
- 14:03Speaker 1: It is because it is possible.
- 14:05Speaker 8: That there are people here and those following online from
- 14:08across the globe who are weary, fatigued spiritually, and are
- 14:12at a point right now where we are crying for answers.
- 14:17Otherwise many may give up. And God is sending this
- 14:21world even at this conference, to give you an explanation
- 14:26and to help you interpret the writings on the world
- 14:29a course of what is happening in my life. It
- 14:31looks like everything has just vanished that is capable of
- 14:35giving me joy, my peace, my health, my strength, my finances,
- 14:40my marriage, my children. We are people of faith, but
- 14:45there is something about seasons that we need to understand it.
- 14:50Someone learning Proverbs chapter twenty four and verse ten. Proverbs
- 15:01chapter twenty four unudstand. May I request also that we're
- 15:04read it together. It is projected. Ready want to read.
- 15:08If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength
- 15:14is small one more time, if thou just uverstand, if
- 15:19thou faint. The Bible acknowledges that there is a day
- 15:28called the day of adversity. What a caption for a day?
- 15:34Speaker 1: Are we together?
- 15:35Speaker 4: Now?
- 15:36Speaker 1: The Bible says that.
- 15:38Speaker 8: There is a possibility and that every believer, for as
- 15:42long as you saw John long enough in this space
- 15:46called the earth, you will collide with a day in
- 15:50your experience called the day of adversity. He tells you
- 15:55what you need is not to pray the day away necessarily,
- 15:58what you need is to be momentum for that day,
- 16:01because the factor that will baire you out on that
- 16:05day is not avoiding the day, is having strength. So
- 16:09this is an issue of strength, not just running away
- 16:13from the day. That if you faint in the day
- 16:18of battle, he says, it is because your strength is small,
- 16:22not because of the day.
- 16:24Speaker 1: Something about the.
- 16:28Speaker 8: Insufficiency of your strength can make that day sky you
- 16:34and destroy you even for the rest of your life.
- 16:40Adversity speaks of misfortune. Adversity speaks of hardship. Adversity speaks
- 16:47of challenges mishab Adversity speaks of continual difficulty.
- 16:53Speaker 1: The Bible leaves us.
- 16:57Speaker 8: Very in a very very vocal exc expression. The Bible
- 17:01tells us that for as long as you live long
- 17:04enough in the earth, whether you like it or not,
- 17:07that seasons will come in your life when you will
- 17:11experience different levels of discomfort for different reasons. And the
- 17:17Bible lets us know that in the journey of life
- 17:20and destiny, in this faith adventure, strength is necessary.
- 17:26Speaker 1: Not just knowledge.
- 17:28Speaker 8: Knowledge is important, but the time will come when what
- 17:32you need is strength.
- 17:36Speaker 1: Are we together? In Proverbs?
- 17:39Speaker 8: In Efficient chapter three, Efficient chapter three and verse sixteen,
- 17:43Paul was teaching the church in efes Us, and he
- 17:46said that he would grant onto you according to the
- 17:50riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by
- 17:55his spirit in the inner man. Why would Paul be
- 17:59talking to the watch those who are already saved about
- 18:03the need for strength to be strengthened.
- 18:07Speaker 1: In your inn.
- 18:07Speaker 8: Amen, Because there is a limitation in all men away together.
- 18:17Speaker 1: And that limitation was clearly.
- 18:21Speaker 8: It was clearly expressed in the Bible in the Book
- 18:26of Isaiah chapter forty. Please turn with me quickly to
- 18:29Isaiah forty. For the sake of time, I will just
- 18:32take twenty nine and thirty. In fact, let's start from
- 18:37twenty eight Isaiah chapter forty. From verse twenty eight, hast
- 18:43thou not known? Hast thou not heard that the Everlasting God,
- 18:49the Lord, creator of the ends of the earth, he fainted.
- 18:53Speaker 1: Not Now he's giving you an information.
- 18:55Speaker 8: About God because he's about to contrast it with something
- 18:59that man does not have. That this God does not
- 19:02have the ability to faint. Number two, that God is
- 19:06not wary. Two things he's telling you is not found
- 19:10in God. God does not faint, and God is not wary.
- 19:15The Bible says, there is no searching of his understanding.
- 19:20Now verse twenty nine, he says, he give it power
- 19:23to the faith. He doesn't tell us who that person is.
- 19:27But whoever is that person who is in that state,
- 19:30He's already giving you hope that there is a baillout system.
- 19:34That every time you faint, he gives power, not counsel,
- 19:38not advice. When you faint, it is not knowledge you
- 19:42need necessarily, you need strength. He giveth power to the faint,
- 19:47and to him that have no mighty increased thirty even
- 19:54the youth shall fainate. This is a very serious statement,
- 20:00because the glory of the young people is in their strength.
- 20:03And he's telling you, for as long as you saw
- 20:05John in this life, the wear and tear of living
- 20:09will catch up with you, regardless the advantage of age,
- 20:13that even the youth shall faint and be weary, and
- 20:17the young men shall utally fall. Then he leaves you
- 20:22with his secret. The day that wit upon the Lord
- 20:28paracles theater, something happens to their strength. He uses a
- 20:33strange expression, rekneew that means it was once there, but
- 20:38something happened.
- 20:40Speaker 1: He does not say, he gives you strength that re renews.
- 20:43Speaker 8: Your strength, and he does it in a way that
- 20:46you can mount up with wings as the eagles, that
- 20:49when you master the technology of renewal, you can run,
- 20:53and when men think you should be wary. They find
- 20:56out mysteriously, you never get weary, and when you should work,
- 21:00you would not faint. He's saying, under normal circumstances, it's
- 21:04impossible to walk so fast so Johning in life without
- 21:08being weary and without fainting.
- 21:11Speaker 1: But he introduces a.
- 21:12Speaker 8: Technology that you can tap into, a spiritual technology that
- 21:18makes you behave like God in experience that when others
- 21:23are weary and when they are fainting, you are standing
- 21:26by a strength and an intelligence. Weariness talks of exhaustion,
- 21:39Weariness talks of discouragement. Believe me when I tell you
- 21:44all it takes is for you to live long enough
- 21:46on this earth, and you will know that weariness is
- 21:49across that all mortal men must carry. When Jesus became
- 21:54a man, he tasted of weariness, and the Bible does
- 21:59not hide it. As God, there was no mention of weariness.
- 22:04But the moment he became a man, your Bible tells
- 22:07you one day he.
- 22:08Speaker 1: Was hungry, and he went to the tree.
- 22:10Speaker 8: He did not advise the tree, yet his God, that
- 22:12is love.
- 22:13Speaker 1: He cast that tree. Why hunger?
- 22:18Speaker 8: Hunger was the reason behind that cause, not in demonic activity.
- 22:23He's standing before a tree that leered him, and he
- 22:27came there and finding no fruit, Where did he keep
- 22:31his messy? Where did he keep his love? And you see,
- 22:35the Bible does not hide these experiences because he wants
- 22:39you to know God holy. There is a dimension of
- 22:42God that if the Bible hides, you will not know
- 22:45God accurately. Then the Bible.
- 22:49Speaker 1: Records his frustration.
- 22:52Speaker 8: He looks at his disciples and says, will you also leave?
- 22:54And he said to whom shall we go? And he
- 22:56finds comfort from that statement. Then he gets to a
- 23:00follow carefully, Jesus gets to a point where, carrying the
- 23:04cross and the body of the anonymity of the work
- 23:09that was on him, The Bible says Jesus himself turned
- 23:13to the Father and was negotiating. He was not sleepy,
- 23:17he was not drunk with his intelligence. He said, Father,
- 23:21I am God, but I'm not ashamed to negotiate. Do
- 23:24you know what pain can do? Pain can get you
- 23:28to a point where your reputation does not matter. Again,
- 23:31you are so conscious of solutions, even if it would
- 23:33destroy you.
- 23:35Speaker 1: Jesus, I hope we're learning tonight.
- 23:40Speaker 8: Father. If it bid, I will as though they did
- 23:43not discuss it. This was something that was finished already
- 23:48in heaven. He was just yet to execute it. And
- 23:52now he's renegotiating everything. Take this cop from of me.
- 23:56I'm tired. I'm not the one who's sing. And he
- 23:59remembered said, nevertheless, not my will, but your will be done.
- 24:06You would think that would be the end of the frustration.
- 24:08I'm explaining wariness using Jesus as the reference. Jesus is
- 24:14hanging on the tree, and you would think you will
- 24:16be singing praise and worship at least even when they
- 24:20were killing Stephen the Mattia. Stephen did not complain. But
- 24:25Jesus was there and he was not concerned about what
- 24:28men said. But when he looked up and saw that
- 24:30the Father turned his face, he said, Elloy, Elloy, la
- 24:35marck saba, why will you turn.
- 24:38Speaker 1: Your face against me? I understand men, but you, Jesus.
- 24:55Speaker 8: If we do not understand the reality of exhaustion and wear,
- 25:00it can so affect our faith, because you see, there
- 25:04is a dimension of faith that is being taught in
- 25:06the body of Christ that looks very spiritual, but is incorrect,
- 25:10and it has not given people a chance to understand
- 25:13God holy. There is a dimension of pain that is
- 25:18a gift. There is a dimension of There are seasons
- 25:24that are uncomfortable, but you.
- 25:26Speaker 1: See, they are requirements for greatness.
- 25:29Speaker 8: And if you use the guise of faith to just
- 25:31erode those seasons, people will never know God completely and
- 25:35there will never be people of stature and balance.
- 25:39Speaker 1: There is a requisite level of pain.
- 25:42Speaker 8: There is a requisite level you must taste of certain
- 25:45seasons to qualify you to carry certain graces. Now, this
- 25:50is a language that our generation does not want to
- 25:52hear all using the guise of faith. Let me apologize
- 25:57in advance, because we're going to rush. So there are
- 26:01many people who try to wear seasons away. Jesus himself, well,
- 26:06it had to do it, ranking and increase. They're asking
- 26:08a question. We want to see that you're left and right.
- 26:12He didn't say the seat was not vacant. He said,
- 26:14there is a condition.
- 26:15Speaker 1: Can you drink of my cup and be baptized with
- 26:19my baptism.
- 26:21Speaker 8: There are people today who want on common anointings, They
- 26:25want on common influence. They want to stand in the
- 26:28shoes and the offices of people. And most people want
- 26:31to get it by claiming not everything is a gift.
- 26:35There are things that are rewards. The Bible says to
- 26:39him that end us, he will be giving a crown
- 26:41and a white stone endurance. There is a lot of
- 26:48admiration of people who God is doing mighty things with,
- 26:52and people just make it look as though it was
- 26:55just something that they were lucky, just a gift. Believe me,
- 26:59if you, if you listen to what I'm teaching you tonight,
- 27:02you will find strength from the rising of the Son
- 27:13to the certain of the same.
- 27:18Speaker 1: Your name is Topi, a.
- 27:28Speaker 8: Who's seen that this man was born blind. It was
- 27:32a question he asked Jesus. Was it him or was
- 27:35it his father? Listen to the reply of Jesus, neither.
- 27:39But this has happened, that the glory of God. Is
- 27:43it in your Bible? Oh, my goodness, is that how
- 27:47far God is willing to go for his glory to
- 27:50be revealed? That a man is born blind? And Jesus,
- 27:55who is the manifestation of the glory of the Father,
- 27:58is telling you that God so desires for his glory
- 28:02to be revealed, that he can create all kinds of
- 28:05scenarios provide it, to provide glory.
- 28:09Speaker 1: God does not regret it.
- 28:13Speaker 8: Your name is to be Hallos twenty seven from verse
- 28:26thirteen and fourteen. Please let's rush. I really believe with
- 28:32all my heart that this message is giving someone perspective,
- 28:35is opening you up to something. For some of you,
- 28:38it is possible that you are in these seasons right now,
- 28:41and you want to know is it an attack?
- 28:44Speaker 1: Is it a test? What is given definition to this season?
- 28:48Speaker 8: And then help me know if I should just stay
- 28:50and endure, Should I fight it, should I receive it?
- 28:53Speaker 1: Should I learn from it?
- 28:56Speaker 8: I had fainted unless I had believed to see the
- 29:01goodness of God in the land of.
- 29:04Speaker 1: The Living verse fourteen.
- 29:08Speaker 8: Wait on the Lord, be of good cheer, and he
- 29:13shall strengthen your heart. But here is your own condition.
- 29:19Speaker 6: Wait.
- 29:20Speaker 8: When Pastor Nad came up and began to sing that
- 29:23song about waiting, I said, this man, wait on the
- 29:28Lord and you will find strength. Let me give you
- 29:33three biblical reasons for weariness. Now that we have established
- 29:39that weariness is something that spirituality does not automatically take away,
- 29:44provided you wear a mortal body. It is a tendency
- 29:49that will eventually catch up with you. As we learn
- 29:53from the life of Jesus, who is our reference and
- 29:56our standard. If Jesus were weary as it, child would
- 30:00give him that excuse. But Jesus was weary at the
- 30:03height of everything in his life. What is the first
- 30:08cause of weariness? I wrote down here, disappointed expectations. Please
- 30:14write it down. Disappointed expectations.
- 30:21Speaker 1: Proverabs. Thirteen and verse twelve.
- 30:23Speaker 8: The first reason why believers and even spiritual people can
- 30:29become weary in this faith adventure. My Bible says, hope
- 30:34deferred can make the heart sick. If it was just
- 30:40the body that were sick, you can go to the
- 30:42hospital to treat it. But now he's telling you that
- 30:45this sickness will go beyond your body. That hope deferred
- 30:50can make the heart sick. But when the desire comet
- 30:54it is the tree of life, disappointed expectations. We all
- 31:01desire results in our lives. We all desire results that
- 31:05bring glory to the name of the Lord and become
- 31:08consolations to our Christian experience. In fact, psychologists tell us
- 31:13that one of the keys to fulfillment is progress. A
- 31:17sense of progress. To the degree to which we make
- 31:20constructive advance with our lives, we find fulfillment. Is that
- 31:24true disappointed expectations number two. The second reason why believers
- 31:33can be wary is attacks, persecutions.
- 31:37Speaker 1: And tribulation James Chapter one. Our read from verse one
- 31:43to four.
- 31:44Speaker 8: Attacks, persecution, tribulation James Chapter one, from verse one to four.
- 31:52Here's what it says. James a servant, and all of
- 31:55that he greets you. And then let's start from verse two.
- 32:00Except my brethren, who is he talking to. He's talking
- 32:03to people who are of the fall. That you count
- 32:07it all joy when you fall into diverse temptations verse three.
- 32:12Knowing this, there is an information he wants you to
- 32:15know that can grant you the ability to even count
- 32:19it all joy. It says that the trying of your
- 32:23faith worket Patience's four. It says, but let patients have
- 32:27a perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire.
- 32:32Now that word entire is interesting. That for you to
- 32:36be whole there is a requisite. There is an administration
- 32:40of tribulation and adversity that works together.
- 32:44Speaker 1: To make you entire.
- 32:46Speaker 8: That means without that in the equation of your faith adventure,
- 32:50you are incomplete. There is something about your life and
- 32:53your knowledge of God that is not yet complete.
- 32:57Speaker 1: Oneting nothing first Pitch, Chapter four.
- 33:02Speaker 8: Let's read from verse twelve, first bitter, Chapter four and
- 33:06verse twelve Shabaka beloved again, think it not strange concerning
- 33:19the fiery trial, which is to try you, He says, as.
- 33:23Speaker 1: Though some strange thing happened to you.
- 33:26Speaker 8: He's saying, you are people of faith, but factor this
- 33:29in your faith adventure. It says, but rejoice inasmuch as
- 33:34ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings, that when His glory
- 33:38shall be revealed, ye might be glad also with exceeding joy.
- 33:43While reading to sixteen, it says, if ye be reproached
- 33:49for the name of Christ, happy are ye, for the
- 33:52spirit of glory and of God rested upon you. On
- 33:56your path he's evil spoken of, But on your path
- 33:59he is glorified. He says, But let none of you
- 34:03suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as
- 34:06an evil doer, or as a busy body in other
- 34:09men's matters. Sixteen it says, Yet, if any man's suffer
- 34:13as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let
- 34:18him glorify God.
- 34:20Speaker 1: On this behalf very strange scripture, yet is in the Bible.
- 34:28Speaker 8: Attacks Persecutions Tribulations number three very quickly, What is the
- 34:34third reason why people experience weariness? Sorrow?
- 34:41Speaker 1: Sorrow as simple as that sorrow. Let me define for
- 34:44you what sorrow is.
- 34:45Speaker 8: Sorrow is a feeling of deep distress that is caused
- 34:50by losses, disappointments, misfortune, etc. A feeling of deep distress
- 35:00by losses caused by disappointments, cause by misfortune. It could
- 35:06lead to depression, it could lead to sadness.
- 35:12Speaker 1: I'm sure that.
- 35:16Speaker 8: Apostle good hard to concur to this. Alongside the servants
- 35:20of God here represented. I believe that every man of
- 35:22God would have an average of one situation requiring his
- 35:27help at least every day. A bereavement somewhere, something you
- 35:31can wake up to. Several text messages, Apostle, something just happened, Apostle,
- 35:38this one happened.
- 35:39Speaker 1: My son just died.
- 35:40Speaker 8: I lost. A very touching story from a family a
- 35:44few weeks ago. A woman who went to give Beth
- 35:46with joy and gave Beth and died hard twins and
- 35:50died there, and they prayed and prayed from the house,
- 35:55and they were ministers of the gospel. Now, how do
- 35:58you explain that these are the kinds of moments that
- 36:01dontbeliever us love because they cash in. The devil will
- 36:04write through it and say, is this how God rewards
- 36:07those who serving twins lovely babies? And now the woman
- 36:14died there. It was a painful experience for the family.
- 36:17There is no day that I do not have the
- 36:20privilege and the opportunity of sharing the pain and attempting
- 36:24to give perspective to negative issues around the lives of
- 36:28sincere people.
- 36:32Speaker 1: Are well learning sorrow.
- 36:36Speaker 8: There are issues in the lives of people that you
- 36:39stand and even as a man of God, you stretch
- 36:42your intelligence, you open from Genesis to Revelation, and you
- 36:45honestly cannot find an answer. The only thing you may
- 36:48be tempted to say is give things, and that give thanks.
- 36:51You don't say it immediately. You just sing a song
- 36:54and praying tongues and hope that the Holy Girls, who
- 36:57is the comforter, would minis start to them and then
- 37:00you can come back later. Because the situations defy explanation.
- 37:07Speaker 1: Are we together?
- 37:11Speaker 8: When people have to pay the price because of their
- 37:14integrity or their love for God? When people lose love
- 37:17once I know people who died of diseases and they
- 37:20were quoting scripture till their last breath. How do you
- 37:23explain that kind of occurrence. And yet whilst they were
- 37:27sick on the sick bed, they had propositions from tradition
- 37:32and all kinds of things.
- 37:33Speaker 1: Leave that church thing and come, let's help you.
- 37:36Speaker 8: We know what is wrong with you. And they said,
- 37:38for my integrity, I will stand.
- 37:39Speaker 1: And yet they died.
- 37:42Speaker 8: From the rising of the sun to the setting off
- 37:49the same you see, as I teach, you will be
- 37:53understanding this song. It's easy to sing in the morning
- 37:56of your destiny when the sun is just rising. You
- 37:59are naive about so many things. You've not gone to anything.
- 38:03You're staminized. When you sing in the evening too. If
- 38:07the evening still catches you singing, you are much more.
- 38:10It takes kill to sing in the morning, but it
- 38:14takes strength to sing in the evening.
- 38:20Speaker 1: I'm raising that song for you for a reason.
- 38:23Speaker 8: From the rising of the sun with your naivity and ignorance,
- 38:27and ignorance can be an advantage.
- 38:29Speaker 1: You are light enough to shout.
- 38:32Speaker 8: But by the time it is the evening season of
- 38:34your life, you are in a straight betwixt whether to
- 38:37sing that He's faithful or not. If you still call
- 38:40him faithful. It took more than vocal prowess. You are strong,
- 38:46haven't lost family members, haven't lost your job, haven't lost
- 38:50several things. Spend your life explaining God's faithfulness, and yet
- 38:55your results does not seem to catch.
- 38:57Speaker 1: And yet you still join those who are rejoicing to sing.
- 39:03Speaker 8: Now you understand what the spirit of God gave us
- 39:05through person that song, from the rising of the sun.
- 39:12Speaker 1: To the setting of the same. Your name is to
- 39:20be hallo.
- 39:22Speaker 6: Ah.
- 39:28Speaker 8: Job was one man whose life remains a lesson for us.
- 39:33A man who lost everything in one day, and then
- 39:37the Bible tells us, on top of that, his health
- 39:40was affected. The wealthiest man became a lesson for many people.
- 39:46I'm sure others will say, what, however, you got that money.
- 39:50God is judging you now. I'm sure there will be
- 39:52a prophet who will Prophestshi and say I saw this
- 39:55thing happening, and yet he kept quiet. Job got to
- 40:00point where he was frustrated, and he said, do he
- 40:03slay me a theater?
- 40:07Speaker 1: Listen to me.
- 40:08Speaker 8: You don't sing in the evening with skill. It takes strength. Nevertheless, nevertheless,
- 40:16your name be lifted. I am burying my loved one.
- 40:19But I still stand upon my integrity that you are
- 40:23the giver of life. And when men asked you and said,
- 40:26do you still keep your conviction in the midst of
- 40:29your pain like job, you can tell them God is
- 40:32greater that all the days of my appointed time, I
- 40:35will wait.
- 40:38Speaker 1: Read your Bible and see what the Bible calls faith.
- 40:41Speaker 8: Women who receive their dead to lack, and others who
- 40:45died without receiving the promise. He gathered all and called
- 40:48it faith. Several people entered this year with.
- 40:58Speaker 1: All kinds of pain and disappointment.
- 41:01Speaker 8: There are pastors bleeding, there are business people bleeding. I
- 41:06understand where we just rejoice and say, don't worry, But
- 41:09there are people asking questions when.
- 41:11Speaker 1: They go back home, God, are you still there?
- 41:13Speaker 8: And for many, if they do not encounter the truth
- 41:17from conferences like this, the devil will cash in upon
- 41:21their ignorance and tell them it means something is wrong
- 41:24with you.
- 41:25Speaker 1: But I bring back that statement who sinned? That this
- 41:28man was born blind?
- 41:31Speaker 8: It is not always about seeing, not him, not his father,
- 41:38but that the glory of God be revealed. How can
- 41:45God allow a man go through affliction for glory? Asks
- 41:48Jesus what is the relationship between the cross and the
- 41:53crown on his head? Are you blessed now that you
- 41:58go through seasons and there is like a fetcher, there
- 42:02is something about God you carry out of that season
- 42:05that when you come out of it, it gives you
- 42:07the ranking in the spirit that although you are a
- 42:10miracle worker, you can stand in a place where there
- 42:13is bereavement and you still have a salmon. There are
- 42:18people who do not have any salmon when they meet
- 42:21those who are downcast. The salmon is only for those
- 42:24who are looking for There are times you will be
- 42:26forced to preach a salmon to people who are crying.
- 42:30Do you have that salmon? You don't study it from
- 42:32your Bible. You fetch it from your own pain, sorrow,
- 42:46a deep feeling of pain.
- 42:52Speaker 1: Most times when people die, people reach me so that
- 42:56we can try and pray for them and see if
- 42:58they come back to life.
- 43:00Speaker 8: And honestly, you cannot imagine how painfully it can be
- 43:02sometimes that you sincerely love people and they and the
- 43:08people have faith.
- 43:09Speaker 1: You can't say they don't have faith. What else is faith?
- 43:12They woke up in the morning and rang your phone
- 43:15thirty times? Is that not faith?
- 43:18Speaker 8: And said, I know if you speak a word, my
- 43:20dead husband or father will come back to life. People
- 43:25lost their businesses, and some of them will say, apostle,
- 43:29I sold seeds, I built churches. Can I tell you
- 43:33you're a minister of the gospel here. Don't be embarrassed.
- 43:36If you don't have all the answers, you are not God.
- 43:40Don't feel ashamed if you don't have all the answers.
- 43:43It's not an indictment on your knowledge of God. There
- 43:46are times that silence is the answer. There are times
- 43:49joy is the answer. There are times your song, given
- 43:52your tears, can be the answer. Judge is quiet. Let's
- 44:03try that song again. From the rising after sun to
- 44:09the sety of the same, your name is to be hallow.
- 44:19Speaker 5: Ah Dona, from the rising after sun to the saty
- 44:29after say, your name is to be hallow.
- 44:37Speaker 6: Ah.
- 44:43Speaker 8: Keys to revival from weariness, that a man can be revived,
- 44:53so that he can now be a conduit that brings comfort, Suker.
- 45:00Reviver the seasons that you are now passing it. For
- 45:09some of you, that season will become your trophy tomorrow.
- 45:13Do not run away from scars. What is a token
- 45:16of shame today may be your symbol of honor tomorrow
- 45:19when you get to heaven. One of the ways you
- 45:22know that this is Jesus by looking at the hands
- 45:24of everybody. Whoever does not have his car on his hands,
- 45:28not Jesus. He's not the only one who has a crown.
- 45:31Elders have crowns, But check the one who has his car.
- 45:38There are times when we come and God sends us
- 45:40to you. We're not looking for your salmon. Show me
- 45:43your scar. That is the key to your honor. Let
- 45:47no man trouble me, he said, For I appear in
- 45:50my body, I pass through that season. I'm not an
- 45:56illegal immigrant if I would use that express Number one,
- 46:09the first key that is able to revive you from
- 46:12these seasons of weariness and this supposed inexplanets, inexplainable seasons.
- 46:19Speaker 1: Number one a revelation of the love of God.
- 46:24Speaker 8: The first key that sponsor us strength and stamina and
- 46:28revival to the weary is a revelation of the love
- 46:33of God. Three scriptures very quickly, First John, chapter three
- 46:38and verse one. Behold what manner of love the Father
- 46:44has best tod upon us, that we should be called
- 46:48the sons of God.
- 46:50Speaker 1: Therefore the world knowing us, not because it knew him.
- 46:53Speaker 9: Not.
- 46:54Speaker 1: The Bible clearly tells us verse one. We'll just keep
- 46:56it there that.
- 46:58Speaker 8: We are the sons of God, and that God showed
- 47:01the extent of his love by making us songs.
- 47:07Speaker 1: Jeremiah thirty one and verse three.
- 47:10Speaker 8: It's been an anthem in my life, a very powerful scripture,
- 47:13that I have loved you.
- 47:14Speaker 1: Jeremiah thirty one and verse three. The Lord hath.
- 47:18Speaker 8: Appeared of all to me, saying, Yay, I have loved
- 47:23you with an ever lasting love. Therefore, with my loving
- 47:28kindness have I drawn you. The consciousness of the love
- 47:32of God is a strengthener. When you know that God
- 47:36loves you and that his jealousy is ever before you,
- 47:41it can grant you strength even in the midst of
- 47:44these seasons. Romans, Chapter eight and verse twenty eight. Romans
- 47:49eight twenty eight. It says, all things walk together for
- 47:54the good of them that love God. This is a
- 47:58love affair, and to them who are the called according
- 48:02to His purposes, all things doesn't matter what it is.
- 48:07The Bible says, it sustains the ability to walk together.
- 48:13So the first key to revival from weariness is the
- 48:17revelation of the love of God Key number two. I
- 48:22call it the comfort of scripture, the comfort of scripture
- 48:27war besides a man who is far from scripture during
- 48:31these seasons.
- 48:33Speaker 1: Romans fifteen and verse four.
- 48:35Speaker 8: Romance Chapter fifteen and verse four, for whatsoever things were
- 48:41written a full time, It says they were written for
- 48:44our learning, that we, to patience and the comfort of
- 48:49scripture might find hope. Scripture is not just for information.
- 48:54Scripture is also for comfort. You know how you get
- 48:57comfort from scripture. When you see what happened before to
- 49:01the saints, and you see how God brought them out,
- 49:03it can minister comfort to you. The Bible says that
- 49:06was why it was written. It's not always about information.
- 49:10It's also so that you can draw strength that when
- 49:14you go through seasons that you cannot explain. You remember Jesus,
- 49:18you remember Joseph, you remember the nation of Israel, you
- 49:22remember all of these people, and you can find strength
- 49:26strength for that journey. Some one one nine and verse
- 49:32twenty eight. Some one one nine and verse twenty eight.
- 49:37Some one one nine and verse twenty eight. It says,
- 49:41my soul melted for heaviness, strengthen down me according to
- 49:47your word. My soul melted for heaveness. But strengthen down
- 49:52me according to your word. The word of God is powerful.
- 49:56It is able to give you strength.
- 50:00Speaker 1: Number three.
- 50:01Speaker 8: What is the key to revival from weariness and from
- 50:08this unfavorable seasons? Strategic prayers, Strategic prayers.

- 55:17And again I say, rejoice. Popular scripture Habacco, chapter three,
- 55:21from verse seventeen. We're about to pray. Habacco chapter three,
- 55:27beginning from verse seventeen. It says, although the victory shall
- 55:31not blossom, neither shall foot be in the vines, The
- 55:36labor of the olive shall fail, and the field shall
- 55:40yield no meat. The flock shall be cut off from
- 55:45the fold, and there shall be not heard.
- 55:48Speaker 1: In the stalls.
- 55:50Speaker 8: I like the next world. Yet don't worry, don't worry,
- 55:54don't rush it yet all of those things, Yet this
- 56:03would be my response. I will rejoice in the Lord.
- 56:08I will joy in the God of my salvation. Nineteen
- 56:14It says, the Lord God is my strength, and he
- 56:18will make my feet like hind's feet and he will
- 56:22make me to walk upon mine high places that in
- 56:26spite of everything that has happened. My response, yet I
- 56:31will rejoice. Yet I will rejoice.
- 56:39Speaker 9: Your name is Stupi Hallo. Your name is Tobi Hallo.
- 57:01Speaker 1: Number five, the fifth key to revival.
- 57:07Speaker 8: In the midst of weariness that provides restoration for your
- 57:12soul and even strength for the journey, is called impartition
- 57:17of strength. God is able to impart strength to the believer,
- 57:24in addition to your consciousness of His love, the comfort
- 57:28of scripture, strategic prayers.
- 57:31Speaker 1: Your joy.
- 57:32Speaker 8: Number five is impartition of strength. The strength of God
- 57:37can come upon an individual as an importation and provide
- 57:41the stamina for continuity.
- 57:44Speaker 6: Is it Keel?
- 57:44Speaker 1: Chapter two from verse one and two. Is it Keel?
- 57:48Speaker 8: Chapter two from verse one and two?
- 57:52Speaker 1: Is it Keel?
- 57:52Speaker 8: Chapter two from verse one and two, Son of Man,
- 58:00He said, stand upon your feet and let me speak
- 58:04to you. Chapter two from verse.
- 58:05Speaker 1: One and two.
- 58:06Speaker 8: And the man did not have any strength. And verse
- 58:09two says, and the spirit entered into me when he
- 58:15spake onto me and set me upon my feet. That
- 58:20I heard him that speake onto me, the spirit when
- 58:25he asked me to stand, I didn't have the strength
- 58:27to stand, but the spirit something from him. This is
- 58:31what is happening to someone now, because this is February,
- 58:34and for some people you already seem to have the
- 58:36weariness of December. And the Spirit entered into him and
- 58:41set me upon my feet. Philippians, Chapter four and verse thirteen.
- 58:49Paul was speaking over the church in Philippi, and he said,
- 58:53I can do all things through Christ that strengthened me,
- 59:00and do all things through that and nineteen that spiritual
- 59:04agency that grants me on usual strength.
- 59:07Speaker 1: That when people are weary, people are.
- 59:09Speaker 8: Downcast, I can carry a god like stamina, and that
- 59:13it is sponsored by the infusion of strength from Heaven.
- 59:19Efficient chapter six. Understand finally again, my brethren, he says,
- 59:29be strong in the Lord and in the power of
- 59:34His might. Amplify says, draw your strength from your union
- 59:38with Him. Draw your strength, take advantage of the fact
- 59:43that you are one with Him, and draw your strength.
- 59:47Be empowered through your union with Him. Don't waste the
- 59:50fact that you are one with Him. That when you
- 59:53go through this seasons, awareness that you have an advantage
- 59:58by reason of being great turned into Christ. Take advantage
- 1:00:02of it and dress strength. Draw your strength from Him,
- 1:00:07and be empowered through your union with Him and in
- 1:00:11the power of His boundless mind.
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: Can I tell you this, Please look up when.
- 1:00:18Speaker 8: You pass through seasons, seasons that seem to be uncomfortable,
- 1:00:24seasons that test and try your faith.
- 1:00:27Speaker 1: When you endure to the end, let me tell you
- 1:00:30two things that happen to you. Number One, there.
- 1:00:34Speaker 8: Is always an increase and multiplication of the grace of
- 1:00:39God that is invested upon your life. It will be
- 1:00:42clear to all and saundry that this one is a reed.
- 1:00:45I have taken out a fire. Number Two, authority and
- 1:00:51grace is given to you to bring anybody who.
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: Gets to that situation too. This is one of the
- 1:00:57classic This is one of the blessings of enduring seasons
- 1:01:01in the spirit.
- 1:01:05Speaker 8: That if a woman, for instance, has been trusting God
- 1:01:09for the fruit of the woman don't have everything she
- 1:01:11knows to do and nothing seems to happen, she's gone
- 1:01:13through her.
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: Journey of pain.
- 1:01:15Speaker 8: Let me tell you the day that woman gives bed,
- 1:01:17it's not just a child she has. That child also
- 1:01:20came with an anointing. Any woman she prays for she
- 1:01:24can draw from the archive of her pain it is true.
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: That's the reason why you find out that God oftens.
- 1:01:33He would often.
- 1:01:35Speaker 8: Empower people along the areas of their pain. The areas
- 1:01:41that he creates a ministry.
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: Are way together.
- 1:01:48Speaker 8: Because you see pain and unfavorable seasons like this can
- 1:01:53plant in you compassion. And compassion is how the anointing
- 1:01:57is drawn from within you. For we do not have
- 1:01:59the priest who cannot be touched with the feelings of
- 1:02:04our infirmity. He was in every way like us teen ted,
- 1:02:08yet without sain. You see that compassion. Jesus had compassion
- 1:02:16for us, to the point that even when he went
- 1:02:18to heaven, he still found a ministry for himself, interceding
- 1:02:22for the Saints exalted, defeated Satan, hell, dead, and the grave,
- 1:02:30and yet he sat at the right hand of the Father.
- 1:02:33He was so touched by his experience being a man
- 1:02:37that he continues to intercede for us. You know what
- 1:02:40it means to intercede. To intercede means to be that
- 1:02:44breach to pray and say, Father, I know what it
- 1:02:48means to be a man of God in Nigeria. I
- 1:02:50know what it means to be a man of God
- 1:02:52on earth. Let's look at that scripture again, and then
- 1:03:00will pray First Corinthians one, Second Corinthians one, from verse
- 1:03:08three and four.
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: Second Corinthians one, verse three and four. Now it will
- 1:03:14makes sense to you, and then will pray Second Corinthians.
- 1:03:19Speaker 6: One.
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: From verse three and four.
- 1:03:24Speaker 8: It says, blessed be God, even the father of our lord,
- 1:03:28Jesus Christ, the Father of messes and the God of
- 1:03:34all comfort. Verse four it says, who comforted us in
- 1:03:40our tribulation, that we might be able to comfort them
- 1:03:45which are in any trouble, any trouble. It's a qualification
- 1:03:51you get, like an accreditation, that situations and seasons can
- 1:03:57put a badge upon you and any one who is troubled.
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: And this made God pushes you and say, go there.
- 1:04:03You are the only one who can understand the situation.
- 1:04:06Speaker 8: Of this family because of something you have gone through.
- 1:04:11Can I tell you in your car is your glory?
- 1:04:15Don't run away from it that you cried trusting God
- 1:04:21for a miracle. You came to a buja with no sponsor,
- 1:04:24no body, and some of you are passing through on
- 1:04:27favorable seasons. That season is driving you to praying tongues
- 1:04:31every day. After all, there's no job, and God has
- 1:04:33seen that there is an advantage in that season. I
- 1:04:36assure you you won't be in a hordy to bring
- 1:04:38a job. He has found out that that situation is
- 1:04:42betting something out of you for our light afflictions, he says,
- 1:04:48which work at in us a far more exceeding weight
- 1:04:51of glory. Because there are people who are about to
- 1:04:58enter new seasons in the lives. You've been going through
- 1:05:02seasons that you cannot explain. Lord, give me a definition
- 1:05:06of what is happening to me. And the Lord put
- 1:05:09this conference together to bring answers to you and is
- 1:05:12telling you rejoice not over your tragedy, rather rejoice in
- 1:05:17the Lord because he's doing something in your life. And
- 1:05:20can I tell you when God is done with you,
- 1:05:23like the rising of the sun, you will emerge with
- 1:05:26power and.
- 1:05:27Speaker 1: Grace and stamina and wisdom.
- 1:05:29Speaker 8: You will stand with uncanny mastery as you administer.
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: The annointing of the Spirit. Because you are not just
- 1:05:37one who read your Bible.
- 1:05:38Speaker 8: You went through a school in the spirit. War betides
- 1:05:44any nation whose king is a child. You know what
- 1:05:47it means to be a child. There is a requside
- 1:05:50level of innocense you must give up if you want
- 1:05:53to sit in the place of authority. By inno sense,
- 1:05:57I mean naivity. Father, I want you to use me mightily.
- 1:06:06I want to be a great man of God. Father,
- 1:06:08I want to be.
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: A kingdom below near.
- 1:06:10Speaker 8: You say, and he's watching you, vetting the sincerity mixed
- 1:06:14with childishness that is robbing off in prayer. And he says,
- 1:06:18are you ready to drink of my cup? And usually
- 1:06:21you will say yes, and in your mind you believe
- 1:06:24that everything is all right. He says, hold my hand,
- 1:06:27and let's go for the journey. And before you go,
- 1:06:29he says, hold on, eat first, because you have no
- 1:06:33idea where you are going to do. You know what
- 1:06:35it means to eat. To eat means take advantage of
- 1:06:38every privilege you have now, because when you start that
- 1:06:42journey for forty days, you might not see anybody again.
- 1:06:45So some of you yeah, about to start that season.
- 1:06:48And God is saying it free prayer. Every time you
- 1:06:52have any trouble, you just call and someone picks your phone.
- 1:06:55He said, take advantage of that season. Because the season
- 1:06:58you are about to enter, you will prohibit you from
- 1:07:01calling any one.
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: You will walk your fate till it works by itself.
- 1:07:06Speaker 8: It for the journey is fine, and you've eaten, and
- 1:07:10he's tapping you and saying it again. Whoever knew that
- 1:07:14the pandemic would bring the world to this kind of state,
- 1:07:19that it literally resets the life and the destinies of
- 1:07:22other people. There are people today who have not even
- 1:07:25gained your footing suicide everywhere, But there are those who
- 1:07:32are saying, Lord, there is something I know about you
- 1:07:37that though I walk through the valley of the shadow
- 1:07:41of death, thou art with me.
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: I will fear no evil.
- 1:07:46Speaker 8: For your road and your staff they comfort me. Notice
- 1:07:50his voice was not mentioned there your rod and your staff.
- 1:07:56How does a rod and staff create comfort? But it
- 1:08:02says they comfort me. Every great man you know, if
- 1:08:09they are to be sincere with you, if they want
- 1:08:12to really teach you the secret to their exploits, you
- 1:08:15will cry at the end of the story because they
- 1:08:18will not tell you what you want to hear.
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: They will tell you seasons of pain.
- 1:08:23Speaker 8: They will tell you about seasons.
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: When I have the.
- 1:08:26Speaker 8: Privilege and the honor of sitting with great people, I
- 1:08:29sit quietly like a sponge.
- 1:08:31Speaker 1: I'm not interested in all the glamor tell me the stories.
- 1:08:36Speaker 8: If it's a minister of the gospel, I will tell
- 1:08:38you I don't want to hear about science and wonders.
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: Let me just know.
- 1:08:44Speaker 8: Unfortunately, our world today.
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: Does not have any regard for scars.
- 1:08:50Speaker 8: No, you see, the palace can so decorrect you to
- 1:08:55look like you don't have a scar. Always remind us
- 1:08:57in the palace that this robo royalty came because there
- 1:09:01is a scar, and there are times you must be
- 1:09:03honest to show them the scar. There is a reason
- 1:09:06why the sky is on the hand of Jesus. He
- 1:09:08does not wear gloves, even though he is royalty. He
- 1:09:11leaves the scar for you to see and to remind
- 1:09:14you that if you are going to follow in his steps,
- 1:09:17it is not just about prayer and importation alone. There
- 1:09:21are wells you must dick. Dear Man of God, there
- 1:09:24are wells you must dick. Not everything will just come
- 1:09:27by praying for me. There are times you will cry.
- 1:09:31You will have to make that history by yourself. My
- 1:09:34assignment tonight is to bring you comfort by the spirit,
- 1:09:38and then to pray that the staying power. Because some
- 1:09:42of you are almost the season is almost coming to
- 1:09:44an end. Don't give up one day to the end
- 1:09:47of the season. You can have brought the season pastonnad
- 1:09:54came up here and sang by the spirit waiting Waiting.
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: Waiting is painful. Waiting is not a parable. It means wait.
- 1:10:06Speaker 8: And the human spirit interpreach waiting as irresponsibility because we
- 1:10:10are people of action. Why do I sit down doing
- 1:10:13nothing of God with all this confusion in my life?
- 1:10:16And it says it is there that wait upon the Lord.
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: Are weay together?
- 1:10:27Speaker 8: Please do not miss the sessions tomorrow because you would
- 1:10:33not get an incomplete teaching this way. There is something
- 1:10:36I will connect to what I'm teaching you that will
- 1:10:39open your eyes and show you something about God that
- 1:10:42the more we pass through these seasons, there is something
- 1:10:46about God. There is a way you see God that
- 1:10:50is different when you are in fire. There is no
- 1:10:53way of seeing God that way until you are in fire.
- 1:10:59Are way together today we're gathered here celebrating what God
- 1:11:07is doing in the life of a man of God
- 1:11:09and his dear wife, among many other factors, because.
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: Of a testament of surviving.
- 1:11:18Speaker 8: And standing strong through seasons, singing in the night, singing
- 1:11:24with tears, and can I tell you don't just come
- 1:11:28to receive information alone. Come trusting that God will interpret
- 1:11:34for you the writings on the world. How do I
- 1:11:37move from this place to the place of destiny? When
- 1:11:41they were introducing Pastornat, I listened carefully to what the
- 1:11:44man of God said. He said, it's one person who
- 1:11:47is teaching the nations how to worship. And I sat
- 1:11:49quietly and I listened, and I said, we love those.
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: Kinds of things.
- 1:11:54Speaker 8: What can you aid that price?
- 1:11:58Speaker 1: Believe me a price. There are some things you cannot
- 1:12:03pray away. You will have to pass through it.
- 1:12:07Speaker 8: If you are Jesus and you intend to sit on
- 1:12:09the throne, get ready for the cross. Not only will
- 1:12:13you be hung there, you will carry it. You will
- 1:12:15first carry it before you die on it. I don't
- 1:12:20mean to scare you, but the Holy Girst granted me
- 1:12:22the release to teach this. There are messages that will
- 1:12:27not make sense now, but seasons will come when you
- 1:12:29will need them. No matter how bright a light I
- 1:12:32give you, if it is in the day, you don't
- 1:12:34need it. Just keep that light because when you get
- 1:12:38to the night, you will need that light for advancement.
- 1:12:42The most important component in your kive is the night.
- 1:12:46Is your head lamp, not the color of the car,
- 1:12:49not even the type of the car. We can rejoice
- 1:12:51at the glamor of the car in the day, but
- 1:12:54once we get to the nighttime, be shot that while
- 1:12:57we're rejoicing in the day, your head lamp is all right.
- 1:13:00Because he made two great lights. There is a light
- 1:13:02you will need in the night. The darkness that is
- 1:13:05looming across the head requires a high level spiritual understanding.
- 1:13:14Two categories of people here, Number one those who are
- 1:13:18already in this season praying and saying Apostle. I have
- 1:13:25been praying and asking God to give a definition to
- 1:13:27what is happening to me. I lost a loved one,
- 1:13:31I lost money. Something seems to not just add up
- 1:13:35with my life and destiny, my ministry, my business.
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: What is the meaning of that?
- 1:13:40Speaker 8: And God is bringing perspective? May I remind you again
- 1:13:45who seemed that this man was born blind? It is
- 1:13:49not always the same issue. Jesus said, neither not his father,
- 1:13:55not sh but that in that entire experience there is
- 1:14:00glory that shall be bathed through this. Hear me, Man
- 1:14:04of God, you are going through what you are going
- 1:14:07through because of a mantle that is waiting for you.
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: Kingdom bilognare.
- 1:14:13Speaker 8: Forget about all the dreams you've been having with you
- 1:14:15having money if you really want that dream to become
- 1:14:18in reality more than just saying I received by fate.
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: I tell you there are seasons.
- 1:14:23Speaker 8: You step into a season where God will ask you
- 1:14:25to empty your account on top of the cry you
- 1:14:27have cried. After crying for six hours, you think you
- 1:14:30will send your destiny helper. He will ask you empty
- 1:14:33what is left first, and you sit down there, not
- 1:14:36knowing whether you're a Christian or not again, and it
- 1:14:39tells you that is the qualification for being my treasurer.
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: From the rising after the sun to the setting after same,
- 1:14:56your name means to be hallo Ah for those people
- 1:15:06who are going through those seasons.
- 1:15:09Speaker 8: I believe that the Lord brought me here tonight as
- 1:15:11a prophetic midwife because some of you those seasons are
- 1:15:15coming to an end. And like a woman who is
- 1:15:18ready to give birth to a season of glory, God
- 1:15:21has centers as prophetic midwives that it is time to push.
- 1:15:27The glory you saw yesterday is nothing compared to that
- 1:15:30which His Majesty will be bringing upon your life. And
- 1:15:34believe me, let me speak to someone it will be
- 1:15:36in your lifetime. You will see the birth of that glory,
- 1:15:39that your life will become a tament of the faithfulness
- 1:15:42and the messy of God. People will look at your
- 1:15:45life and they will learn God. Your life will be
- 1:15:47a handout. It will be a lecture. Man wil that
- 1:15:50if people do not understand anything about God, you will
- 1:15:53refer them to you and say, on the study the
- 1:15:56life of this my servant, and you will have clevery
- 1:16:00tea as to how I work. The second category of
- 1:16:04p are those who are about to enter this season.
- 1:16:09I wish I were not the one who would tell you,
- 1:16:12but let me be honest. Between the name of Jesus
- 1:16:14and in the name of honesty, if it's advancement that
- 1:16:17you desire, ask Jesus what he faced on his way
- 1:16:20to gather around you would think that the storm will
- 1:16:24spare Jesus, it's still came.
- 1:16:32Speaker 1: This would not be the kind of message I want
- 1:16:33to preach. And I apologize.
- 1:16:39Speaker 8: For the discomfort this will bring to your emotions, except
- 1:16:41that you would thank me soon. Because many of you
- 1:16:45you have been eating. Now you are not eating for nothing.
- 1:16:51Don't mind your weight, you will shed it off. I
- 1:16:54assure you the way that journey will stretch you from
- 1:16:58border to border.
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: You will stretch it through.
- 1:17:03Speaker 8: So that when those moments come, you will reject the
- 1:17:07voice of the adversary who comes to lie to you
- 1:17:10and say, Man of God, if you are really annointed,
- 1:17:13what is wrong with you?
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: Tell him get this behind me. I will go through
- 1:17:16my seasons with honor.
- 1:17:18Speaker 8: I will go through it with nobility and integrity, knowing
- 1:17:22this that when he tried me, I will become refined
- 1:17:25as gold.
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: That some of you can stand before the.
- 1:17:32Speaker 8: Dead body of a loved one and with tears in
- 1:17:35your eyes, you will still believe God has called you
- 1:17:37to the miracle ministry. When people are asking you and say,
- 1:17:41never talk about that vision of Crusades again. You could
- 1:17:44not raise this dead body. Shame on you and your destiny.
- 1:17:47You can find comfort knowing that His word concerning me
- 1:17:53remains true. Can we pray for a few minutes, Please
- 1:17:56rise upon your feet.
- 1:18:00Speaker 6: Ah uhda.
- 1:18:16Speaker 10: Uh from the rising after the sun to the seti
- 1:18:27of the same your name me be halloo ah one
- 1:18:39more time, from the rising of the sun to the setia.
- 1:18:48Speaker 8: The same.

- 1:21:12that God will be doing. I'm not one person who
- 1:21:14will come out and start telling you things and announcing things.
- 1:21:17But believe me when I tell you this, the old
- 1:21:21wine has finished. There is a new wine. There is

- 1:21:33church strange imagines of people and make normal mistake to
- 1:21:39think they were lucky. These were people who have been hiding,
- 1:21:43like the five thousand prophets under the custody of Obadiah.
- 1:21:50For some of us who have been part of many seasons,
- 1:21:54because we have mastered at the art of waiting and
- 1:21:57crying through these seasons. God, who is still in new life,
- 1:22:00that you renew visa, that even when your visa expires,
- 1:22:03you will renew your relevance and say continue, And you

- 1:22:30your visa again and say, even though you are being
- 1:22:33ministry for a long time, you will still not go
- 1:22:35out of relevance. You have shown God that through your
- 1:22:38alignment you qualify for another season. Can I tell you
- 1:22:43between now, if Christ harries between now and twenty thirty,
- 1:22:48the way things.

- 1:22:59names that will remain. It is my prayer that everybody,
- 1:23:04under the sound of my voice, you will pass through
- 1:23:07that dealing of the spirit that's circumcision so painful, but
- 1:23:13that it will bring you to a point where there
- 1:23:15will be no season of the move of God, that
- 1:23:17you will be out of relevance. So can we pray
