- 0:39the Lord, says the Lord. Here in the day of trouble, the
- 0:43God of Jacob defend you, send you help from his sanctuary, and
- 0:50strengthen you out of Zion. Someone with your hands lifted

- 6:53Amen. Praise the name of the Lord.
- 6:57We're happy to have everyone who's been able to make it for

- 7:44Pleasant surprise. And then he was with us during
- 7:48queso sessions and we're honored to have him again with us in
- 7:52church. Apostle Paul Ahmed, God bless
- 7:55you. God bless you, Sir, God bless
- 7:57you. Hallelujah.
- 7:59Now, just a little housekeeping and we'll get straight to the
- 8:03ministry of the Word to announce to us that by the grace of God,
- 8:08next week will be a miracle service for the month of
- 8:12February. It didn't sound like you're
- 8:15ready for a real miracle. Hallelujah.
- 8:19So please do invite everyone. We'll be back home by then, but
- 8:23then our social media platforms are available for you to
- 8:28connect. You heard the testimonies of the
- 8:30people when it has to do with the business of power and the
- 8:34life giving ministry of the Spirit.
- 8:37Proximity is an advantage, but distance is no barrier.
- 8:41Praise the name of the Lord, the centurion said, For I'm a man
- 8:44under authority, having men under me, and I say to 1 go and
- 8:49he goeth, come and he comes. He said, speak the word only.
- 8:52Praise the name of the Lord Jesus.
- 8:54So do take advantage of all our social media platforms for your
- 8:59spiritual edification, especially during the miracle
- 9:03service. Now, very quickly, we're opening
- 9:06doors. This announcement concerns
- 9:09Koinonia, US. We're opening doors for two
- 9:12departments and I'm using this platform to make the
- 9:15announcement, the welfare and hospitality department and then
- 9:19the aesthetics department. So the aesthetics department
- 9:23there are those responsible for beautifying the House of God,
- 9:26everything from stage to decorations, aesthetics.
- 9:30The QR code should be projected on your screens.
- 9:34All of you in US and around US who want to be part of these two
- 9:38departments, please do well to scan the QR code and you'll be
- 9:43directed on what to do afterwards.
- 9:46Again, the aesthetics department and then the welfare and
- 9:49hospitality department. The Lord bless you as you avail
- 9:53yourself to serve and it's in Jesus name we pray.
- 9:57Amen. To remind you again that
- 10:00preparation for Sound of Revival Canada as well as all our other
- 10:06expressions. We start this year with UK and
- 10:09then UK is in May and then Canada and US will be in August.
- 10:14Fortunately for Canada, I think all the dates and all the
- 10:18arrangements are already sorted. I'm not sure the media and PR
- 10:22have the QR code for registration.
- 10:30I'm not sure they are ready to begin to receive people.
- 10:33OK, we have it there. So I'll give you a few, maybe a
- 10:38minute or two. We want this addition to be the
- 10:42most impactful by every standard.
- 10:44And so we're hoping and praying and trusting that we'll have the
- 10:48most diversity of people groups do extend the the reach and the
- 10:54information to as many as you can find.
- 10:57A francophone community, every other community represented here
- 11:00in Canada and of course environs.
- 11:03Please do let them connect for US and UK will bring the
- 11:09announcement hopefully by the Miracle service so that we allow
- 11:13people room to make their arrangements in terms of
- 11:16accommodation and then to plan their leave from work.
- 11:20But here you have it. Those of you who are here, you
- 11:23have an opportunity to scan quickly and for those who are
- 11:26following, we're not going to open all the spaces available so
- 11:30that we make sure that those who scan are going to be there.
- 11:33You'll be unfair to scan and make a reservation, stop others
- 11:37from coming live and then not come.
- 11:40So we'll break it into faces. Let's see how far tonight we'll
- 11:43be able to capture the Lord bless you, we bless this and we
- 11:47decree and declare that Sound of Revival Canada will be a
- 11:50profound one in Jesus name. We're doing it here in Toronto
- 11:54at the International Conference Center and the date is 13th and
- 11:5814th. That's a Thursday and a Friday.
- 12:01Begin to plan. August is still a few months,
- 12:04but I think it's fair enough. And for some of you who will
- 12:08want to travel from across the globe, it will be worth your
- 12:13your time. So please do prepare in Jesus
- 12:16much less name. We pray.
- 12:18That should be all. For now, let's go straight to
- 12:21the ministry of the Word. The Bible says Acts chapter 6
- 12:24and verse 4. But we will give ourselves
- 12:25continually to prayer and the ministry of the Word to remind
- 12:31you again that the goal for the teaching ministry that God has
- 12:36committed to us is producing a people who are victorious, the
- 12:41people of enlightenment, and the people who can walk in dominion.
- 12:45So behind the teaching ministry, regardless the subject of
- 12:49consideration, the end point is to produce people who, number
- 12:53one, are spiritually enlightened #2 have the spiritual
- 12:59wherewithal to walk in victory and to walk in dominion.
- 13:04And for those of you who have been part of our series, we've
- 13:07been on a prayer series. Let us pray.
- 13:11We took Part 1 and 2 the last two weeks and hopefully by the
- 13:16grace of God, we should be wrapping up.
- 13:18So this tonight will be Let us pray Part 3.
- 13:22And for a sub topic, we're going to be looking at the rules of
- 13:25engagement. Let us pray part three.
- 13:29I'll do my best to do a quick recap for those who are just
- 13:31connecting for the first time, but this is Let us pray Part 3,
- 13:36the rules of engagement. Allow me begin by reading 2
- 13:40scriptures and then we'll build from there.
- 13:43If you're ready to receive, say my heart is open.
- 13:47You didn't say that like you meant it.
- 13:48My heart is open. All right, so James chapter 4,
- 13:52please. James chapter 4 and verse 3.
- 13:55Then we'll jump to James chapter 5 and verse 16.
- 13:58James has a lot to teach us tonight.
- 14:01He says ye ask and receive not because ye ask amiss, that he
- 14:07may consume it upon your lusts. So the Bible here is saying it
- 14:11is possible to ask and yet not receive.
- 14:14There is such a possibility in prayer that you ask, and yet the
- 14:19answers do not come. And tonight we'll find out why.
- 14:23Chapter 5 and verse 16 St. James, the Bible says, confess
- 14:27your faults to one another and pray for one another that he may
- 14:31be healed. Then he says the fervent,
- 14:33effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous man are veiled.
- 14:38Much can we look at that from the amplified rendition?
- 14:43Give us amplified, and thereafter will begin a quick
- 14:47recap. It says, Confess to one another,
- 14:50therefore, your faults, your sleeps, your false steps, your
- 14:53offense, your sins, and pray also for one another, that you
- 14:57may be healed and restored to a spiritual tone of mind and
- 15:01heart. There it is, the earnest,
- 15:04heartfelt, continued prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous
- 15:10power available which is dynamic in its workings.
- 15:14The Lord bless the reading of His Word in Jesus name.
- 15:19So the goal as far as this prayer series is concerned is to
- 15:23help us to gain mastery in prayer.
- 15:26The Bible says he that strives for mastery is not crowned
- 15:31except and unless he strives lawfully.
- 15:34It is God's desire that believers be a people of
- 15:37intelligence and exactitude as far as spiritual understanding
- 15:41is concerned. And for those who are in Christ,
- 15:45prayer is a fundamental requirement.
- 15:48It covers many, many areas as far as the excelling of a
- 15:52believer is concerned. In fact, in every religion I
- 15:55know that believes in the presence of the divine, call it
- 16:00universe, call it God, call it a deity, including traditional
- 16:04practices. They believe in prayer or some
- 16:07sort of connection to the divine.
- 16:10And so the intent of this prayer series is to help us understand
- 16:15the dynamics of prayer alongside how to engage for a profitable
- 16:19prayer life. Prayer was one of the anchor
- 16:24practices in the life of Jesus and in the early church.
- 16:27The Bible says Jesus prayed Mark 1:35 to 37.
- 16:32He departed early in the morning to his solitary place, and the
- 16:36Bible says he prayed. At Gethsemane, he prayed.
- 16:40John chapter 17, he prayed, it was a consistent practice even
- 16:45though he was the Son of God. He prayed, the apostles prayed,
- 16:49they were praying in the upper room in fact, when the Holy
- 16:52Ghost came upon them and Peter and John went to pray in Acts
- 16:57chapter 3. The Bible called it the hour of
- 16:59prayer and it was as their custom was in Acts chapter 2 and
- 17:03verse 42. Part of the Apostolic model that
- 17:07evolved the early church to become a people of might and
- 17:10stature was prayer. He says the continued steadfast
- 17:14number one in the apostles doctrine and then #2 in
- 17:18fellowship number 3IN communion or breaking of bread and for
- 17:23prayer. Are we learning already in Acts
- 17:26chapter 6 and verse 4, the Bible says speaking about the
- 17:30apostles, he said we will give ourselves continually to prayer
- 17:34and to the ministry of the Word. First Thessalonians, 5/17.
- 17:39He says to pray without season, pray evermore, pray without
- 17:43season doesn't mean to just pray from morning till night all the
- 17:47time it means to be consistent. Hallelujah praise the name of
- 17:51the Lord. Luke chapter 18 and verse one
- 17:54Jesus speak a parable to the end, that men ought always to
- 17:58pray, and not to faint. Mark 1124 Verily, verily, I say
- 18:03unto you, what things so ever ye desire when ye pray, when ye
- 18:08pray not. If ye pray, when ye pray,
- 18:11believe that thou receiveth them, and thou shall have them.
- 18:15Matthew 77 Ask and you shall receive sick, and you shall
- 18:21find. It says, knock, and the door
- 18:23shall be opened unto you. I like verse 8, it says for
- 18:26everyone, everyone that asketh receiveth.
- 18:31Everyone that seeketh findeth unto him that knocketh it shall
- 18:35be opened. Jesus said, he that told you
- 18:39have asked nothing in my name. It says, ask that you shall
- 18:42receive so that your joy be complete.
- 18:45I pray for you that as you listen to the thoughts I'm about
- 18:48to present in the name that is above all names, your prayer
- 18:51altar will come back on fire. Say Amen.
- 18:56Now shout Amen. So a very quick recap, Part 1,
- 19:01Part 2, we discussed a few things that the idea of prayer
- 19:05is that the fabric of every practice of spirituality,
- 19:08regardless whether it's a Christian faith or any other
- 19:11faith practice. It's in this one area that
- 19:14almost all religions and all faith practices agree that
- 19:18prayer or a medium of contact with the divine is essential.
- 19:22Hallelujah. We define prayer #1 as
- 19:27communication with God, communication with God.
- 19:31In the simplest of terms, prayer has to do with communication
- 19:35with God. And we furthermore said it is
- 19:38our way of communicating our thoughts, our needs and our
- 19:42desires. Our thoughts, our needs, our
- 19:46desires, our thoughts, our needs, our desires.
- 19:50We also said that prayer is the principal channel for communion
- 19:56and fellowship with God. Please take note of that.
- 19:59Beyond communicating desires and thoughts and needs, prayer is
- 20:05our way, the principal channel, or the principal platform for
- 20:09communicating for communion and fellowship with God.
- 20:14Second Corinthians 1314. Everyone should know this at
- 20:17heart. By heart it says the grace of
- 20:20our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God and the Koinonia.
- 20:24That's where the word comes from.
- 20:26The communion, the sharing together, the participation of
- 20:30the Holy Ghost. Be with you all.
- 20:32And the church said Amen, Hallelujah.
- 20:36And we considered a number of factors.
- 20:40We went straight into looking at what prayer achieves in the life
- 20:46of a believer or a territory. By the way, I did tell you that
- 20:49the value and the benefit of prayer goes beyond the
- 20:53individual. Prayer can affect an individual.
- 20:56Prayer can affect a family. Prayer can affect a business.
- 21:00Prayer can affect a community. There is no matter of life that
- 21:04prayer cannot do something about.
- 21:06The Bible says be anxious for nothing.
- 21:09Then it says in everything, say everything.
- 21:12Everything includes every matter, every issue of concern.
- 21:16It says, but in everything by prayer and supplication with
- 21:19Thanksgiving. Let your request be made known
- 21:23unto God. Shout, I will pray.
- 21:26So what does prayer do in the life of a believer or a
- 21:29territory? A quick recap so that we connect
- 21:32to tonight's teaching. Number one, we said that prayer
- 21:35creates the platform for communion and fellowship with
- 21:39God, thereby deepening the believers relationship with God.
- 21:44This is a major assignment of the prayer ministry.
- 21:47Beyond receiving things from God, a major part of the
- 21:52believers prayer life should be as a tool or a platform for
- 21:56fellowship, for communion and for contact with God #2 we said
- 22:02prayer provides a platform for the believer to encounter the
- 22:06refining and the transforming power of God.
- 22:11This is very profound in the place of prayer.
- 22:14It's likened to a refinery where the Holy Spirit does an inner
- 22:18walk in the believer in partnership with the word of
- 22:21God, producing A refined Christ like believer.
- 22:25Like you pass crude oil or any raw material through a refinery
- 22:30or some form of transformative process and then it brings out
- 22:34the treasure. You know how oil comes out from
- 22:39say coconut or oil comes out from olive or oil?
- 22:43The various expressions are produced from crude oil.
- 22:46That's what prayer does. It transforms and refines the
- 22:52believer #3 we said prayer builds the believers capacity to
- 22:57trust God. The Bible says what ye beloved,
- 23:00building up yourselves on your most holy faith is as praying in
- 23:05the Holy Ghost. It matters that your capacity to
- 23:08believe and trust God increases with time.
- 23:11Hallelujah. When the Bible talks about the
- 23:13subject of faith, there are 5 levels of faith.
- 23:16There is no faith or 0 faith. There is little faith.
- 23:20There is much faith. There is great faith.
- 23:23There is exceeding great faith. I'll say that again.
- 23:26When it has to do with the levels of faith representing
- 23:29your capacity to trust God, the Bible shows us 5 levels of
- 23:34faith. No faith, little faith, much
- 23:39faith, great faith, an exceeding great faith.
- 23:44Your goal is to rise to a level where your faith is exceedingly
- 23:48great and prayer plays a very major role in helping you
- 23:52because in the place of prayer something happens to your spirit
- 23:55man as the reality of the God you are praying to his furnished
- 23:59in your spirit. You come out from that place of
- 24:02prayer with a greater conviction as to who God is and what he's
- 24:06able to do. He said, I know whom I have
- 24:08believed and I am persuaded that He's able to keep that which is
- 24:13committed unto him against that day.
- 24:16You understand me so far. Say Amen #4 What does prayer
- 24:23achieve in the life of a believer or a territory #4 We
- 24:27said prayer is the authorized channel to involve God and to
- 24:32call for divine assistance in the life of the believer.
- 24:37It is the authorized channel to involve God in the affairs of
- 24:40your life and to call for divine assistance.
- 24:43The Bible says, call of me and I will answer.
- 24:46I will show you great and mighty things which ye know not of
- 24:51Scripture that I quoted a little earlier.
- 24:54He says be anxious for nothing. Philippians chapter 4 and verse
- 24:576. But in everything by prayer in
- 25:00everything by prayer in everything by prayer and
- 25:05supplication with Thanksgiving, Let your request be made known
- 25:11when you want to call upon the Lord.
- 25:13Officially, the platform is prayer.
- 25:15Lamentation is a sincere expression of your need for God,
- 25:20but that does not necessarily call on the attention of God.
- 25:25There are rules of engagement as you'll be learning.
- 25:27It is in prayer. The Bible says you ask the
- 25:30Father in my name and he will do it for you.
- 25:33Are we learning? Many believers lament.
- 25:35We whine, we cry sincerely so, but the reason why we do not get
- 25:39any result is because lamentation is not.
- 25:42Prayer is a human expression of pain, emotions, but that does
- 25:47not carry any value in the Spirit.
- 25:49If you want to involve God, you have to pray.
- 25:52And the reason for that, I don't have the time for that now, but
- 25:55the reason why you have to pray is because God gave man a will,
- 26:00and the moment He gave you a will, it became scripturally
- 26:04incorrect for God to veto your will.
- 26:06He will always allow you to declare.
- 26:09You see that you declare your need for Him and you verbalize
- 26:12your need for Him even in prayer.
- 26:15It is the reason why prayerlessness is pride.
- 26:19It's an announcement to heaven that you do not need the
- 26:21assistance of God in your life. Prayerlessness is pride.
- 26:26The highest demonstration of pride, in fact, is
- 26:29prayerlessness because it's a Declaration of Independence that
- 26:33you do not need the assistance of God in your life.
- 26:36And the Bible already told us that by the arm of flesh shall
- 26:39no man prevail. It already told us beforehand
- 26:42that it is vain to wake up early in the morning and to sleep late
- 26:46in the night, only to eat the bread of sorrow.
- 26:49The Bible says except the Lord builds the house, they that
- 26:52build it labor in vain. Except the Lord watches over a
- 26:55city. You see that the Watchmen watch
- 26:59it, but in vain. So when you desire to call upon
- 27:06the name of the Lord, the platform is prayer.
- 27:09You can cry, Jesus wept, you can, you can grieve, you can
- 27:14express emotions. But when you are done, make sure
- 27:17you pray. God is touched by the feelings
- 27:21of our infirmity, what He responds to His Word.
- 27:25He's touched by the feelings of our infirmity.
- 27:28What He does not respond as per the feelings of our infirmity.
- 27:32He responds to prayer. He responds to His Word.
- 27:36Ready for #5 #5, which was where we connected from last week, is
- 27:43that prayer helps the believer to access the voice of God
- 27:46concerning any and all matters of life and destiny.
- 27:50This is powerful. Prayer helps the believer to
- 27:54access the voice of God concerning any and all matters
- 27:59of life and destiny. This is profound.
- 28:02I did say a few things about the voice of God.
- 28:04I'm not sure I have the liberty to share all, but please let me
- 28:07recommend that you listen to last weeks teaching Part 2.
- 28:11Let us pray. I thought extensively, quite
- 28:14extensively on The Voice of God. But let me say one or two things
- 28:17about that. I did say last week that when we
- 28:20say the voice of God, it doesn't necessarily mean the sound of
- 28:25His voice. The voice of God is a generic
- 28:27expression that seeks to capture all the scriptural channels by
- 28:33which God communicates His thoughts, His will, and His
- 28:37intent to the believer. Did you get that?
- 28:39So the idea of voice is not limited to sound.
- 28:44The idea is the scriptural mechanism by which God transfers
- 28:49His thoughts, His will and His intent to the knowledge, the
- 28:55knowing, the heart of a believer when you study communication in
- 29:00our world is what we call verbal and nonverbal communication, Am
- 29:04I right? Meaning I don't have to speak to
- 29:06you to transfer my thoughts. And I, I illustrated that last
- 29:09week when I called the gentleman upstage in UK and I, I motioned
- 29:14him, you know, and I told him to do all the things he thought I
- 29:18was doing and he got everyone right without me speaking.
- 29:21So when we talk about the voice of God, we're not necessarily
- 29:24talking about a divine sound, a Thunder like sound coming from a
- 29:29deity somewhere. There are not many people who
- 29:31will hear God like that. He does speak like that.
- 29:34The Bible captures God speaking His voice like Thunder upon many
- 29:38waters. But you need to find out what
- 29:40happened to the nation of Israel when He spoke like that.
- 29:43They refused to hear Him again. They said no, no, we're not
- 29:45interested in this kind of hearing.
- 29:47You talk to Moses like that, then you talk towards the way
- 29:49humans talk to men. You see that?
- 29:52So there are not many times in your lifetime you will hear the
- 29:55audible voice of God. I'm not sure I've heard the
- 29:58audible voice of God more than twice in my life.
- 30:00As much as I can recall. I hear God, but not that way.
- 30:04And I know what happened to me when I did hear that.
- 30:08When you hear that the voice of God is mighty upon many waters,
- 30:11believe me, is something that you need capacity to be able to
- 30:15receive. Praise the name of the Lord.
- 30:18Hallelujah. So the voice of God.
- 30:21There are many scriptural channels for discerning the
- 30:24voice of God. Now, the will and the intent of
- 30:27God. I number one, scripture #2
- 30:29dreams and prophetic encounters #3 the coexistence of
- 30:35righteousness, peace and joy as an expression of the presence of
- 30:39the Kingdom #4 the leverage of the prophetic.
- 30:43You see that number 5, the weakness of the Spirit, the
- 30:46Spirit itself beret witness with our spirit that we are sons of
- 30:50God. So these are the the various
- 30:52channels. And based on the gravity of what
- 30:56God wants to communicate to you, it is His prerogative to decide
- 31:00what channel. So there are many, there are
- 31:02many factors that determine how God speaks to you #1 your level
- 31:07of spiritual growth #2 the seriousness of the instruction
- 31:12He wants to give you. If God wants to give you a life
- 31:15defining instruction, He'll come more than just a careless
- 31:18witness. No, no, no, no, no.
- 31:20Because there are many other things that can try to mimic His
- 31:23voice there. He would need to use a stronger
- 31:25channel and then your level of spiritual development, whatever
- 31:30faculty, if you have developed he will, that is strongest in
- 31:34terms of perceiving and believing His voice, He will
- 31:37usually route through that Channel.
- 31:39So if you have not developed your dream life or you have not
- 31:42developed your spirit man to hear His voice, he would rather
- 31:45use the prophetic. There are people who are still
- 31:48Greeks, They still seek for a sign no matter what they see.
- 31:51If it's in themselves, they would not believe it.
- 31:53So God can route that instruction to a prophetic
- 31:56ministry. That's where the revelatory
- 31:59dimension of the prophetic ministry helps, because when
- 32:02someone within the context of the ward gives you information
- 32:06about your life that you know nobody would have known, now it
- 32:10convinces you that God is speaking.
- 32:12Then there comes the instruction.
- 32:15You see that even though the revelatory dimension of the
- 32:18prophetic ministry has been abused, it was meant to build
- 32:21faith in people. Let me tell you this, every time
- 32:24God reveals something about people is to boost their faith
- 32:27level so that they will now hear what He wants to tell them.
- 32:31It's not about the your past that is revealing.
- 32:33It's about something He wants to tell you.
- 32:36But He will use a man to boost your faith level.
- 32:39Remember what happened to the woman at the well Jesus comes to
- 32:43her and she thought he was one of the people maybe who would
- 32:46like her or something of that sort and they began a
- 32:49conversation. Jesus said give me water and he
- 32:51said what are you saying? I mean Jews and Samaritans don't
- 32:54meet together. And then a conversation began
- 32:57and as he kept speaking his intelligence, she said I descend
- 33:01that you're a prophet. Then she brought the matter of
- 33:03worship and now said go and call your husband said no, I don't
- 33:06have any. I have 5 under one I'm currently
- 33:09with is not even my husband. Jesus said you are right and
- 33:13they began to converse at the end of it.
- 33:15When she found out he was the king of kings, he was Jesus the
- 33:18savior. She left her fetcher, her pot
- 33:20and everything. Run into the city and say come
- 33:23see a man. Notice what she said, come see a
- 33:26man. That told me everything I've
- 33:28done and people came because of how compelling the witness was.
- 33:33Do you understand all I've said? Praise God.
- 33:35All right, so let's jump quickly to number six.
- 33:37We have a lot for tonight. Prayer is a channel for
- 33:40receiving divine strategies. Through the platform of prayer,
- 33:45we access the hidden wisdom of God.
- 33:48Again, I've clarified on the word hidden.
- 33:50The word hidden means classified Privy for a group of people,
- 33:55bespoke for your destiny, the classified wisdom of God that
- 33:59are consistent with the will of God.
- 34:01For every season you will need divine strategies.
- 34:04You see, every prophetic word, every instruction God gives you
- 34:09as far as destiny actualization is concerned, requires a divine
- 34:14strategy for its execution. God will never give you a
- 34:18mandate and leave you to invent your way of executing it.
- 34:22Every mandate comes with a divine strategy for its
- 34:25successful execution. Now the danger is that most
- 34:29Christians only receive the mandate.
- 34:31Then they begin to execute. So you find out that God told
- 34:35you to come to Canada, but you have not found out how He
- 34:39designed you to win. You now begin to invent your way
- 34:43and find out that the more you try, the more it does not work.
- 34:46Never leave His presence until you receive the mandate and the
- 34:50strategy. They may not come at the same
- 34:52time, but insist. That's what Joshua did.
- 34:56We know. That is to defeat.
- 34:58Jericho But we're not going to assume that you want us to use
- 35:01the sword. We learnt a lesson already at
- 35:03the Red Sea and so the the God comes to him and gives him the
- 35:07strategy. Go round Jericho once, see that
- 35:11and then on the 7th day you go around 7 times and the priest
- 35:15will blast the trumpet and Jericho sunk.
- 35:17I'm praying for you in the name of Jesus that as you engage
- 35:20consistently in the prayer ministry, in addition to what
- 35:24God told you this year already, in addition to the prophetic,
- 35:27what you have received for the new season, the strategy for
- 35:31execution will also be delivered.
- 35:34Canada you're. Not shouting Amen like.
- 35:35You're receiving. #7 What does prayer achieve in the?
- 35:43Life of a man What does prayer achieve across a territory?
- 35:47Ready #7 is powerful. The intercessory dimension of
- 35:52prayer allows for divine intervention in the life of
- 35:57others and across a territory. There is what we call the
- 36:02intercessory dimension of prayer and that when you engage in the
- 36:06intercessory dimension of prayer, it allows for divine
- 36:10intervention first in the life of others and then across a
- 36:15territory. The character of true
- 36:18intercession is that you must look beyond yourself.
- 36:21Intercession is an expression of love where you desire God to
- 36:26make good His word or to intervene in the life of others.
- 36:30Maybe your children, maybe your spouse, maybe your parents,
- 36:33maybe some fellow that you do not even know anything about, or
- 36:36a territory. This is a dimension of prayer
- 36:39not many believers have understood.
- 36:42Festival Teach. Chapter 2 and verse. 1 The Bible
- 36:45mandates that first and foremost intercession be made.
- 36:48I exhort, therefore he said, that first of all supplications,
- 36:53prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made.
- 36:57For how many men? All men #2 When you are done
- 37:01with all men, then you go to kings.
- 37:03And for all that are in authority, that we may lead a
- 37:07quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty, say, For
- 37:12this is good in the sight of God.
- 37:15Our Savior who desires that. All men be saved, and that they
- 37:19come unto the knowledge of the truth.
- 37:23The intercessory dimension of prayer also double S as the
- 37:27warfare dimension of prayer. This is where you contend with
- 37:31the demonic forces that as can do to destroy lives, to destroy
- 37:37territories. These are the demonic spirits
- 37:40that are responsible for mind control across the territory.
- 37:44I did say it last week. When you find people behave in a
- 37:47way that is inhuman, I can tell you that they are under the
- 37:51influence of strange spirits. Are we together?
- 37:54When someone just picks up a gun and begins to blow up people
- 37:57like that, It's not about some emotional that the victim may
- 38:01not know that he or she is under the influence of a demon spirit.
- 38:04And because spirits come and go, by the time a spirit leaves its
- 38:09victim, the person returns back to sanity.
- 38:13You find out that the person is behaving well.
- 38:15Same thing with those on drugs. Same thing with those who do all
- 38:18kinds of inhuman activities at the point of execution.
- 38:22I can tell you they are usually under the influence of demon
- 38:25spirits. And this is where the Ministry
- 38:29of Intercessors and Watchmen come in.
- 38:31You see that now, Watchmen, those who God has given an
- 38:35elevated level of sensitivity to descend the spiritual operations
- 38:40within a territory and they detect when there is a release
- 38:43of demonic arsenals over that territory to begin to introduce
- 38:47habits and introduce mind control systems.
- 38:51These are the spirits that are responsible for demonic trends.
- 38:55Someone does something, sells it on social media, and next moment
- 38:59it becomes widespread. That publicity, you see, has
- 39:02demons taking it from corner to corner.
- 39:05And sooner or later you find out a particular age demography,
- 39:08begin to practice those things. It's an attack.
- 39:11But here is where intercessors come in.
- 39:13Who is understanding me so far? And in this season, across every
- 39:17territory, God is raising real intercessors.
- 39:21Real intercessors, people. Who know how to hold on to the
- 39:25forehands of the altar. And they will pray the will of
- 39:28God. Pray the will of God.
- 39:30The program of God is at risk in any territory where we do not
- 39:35find trained and mentored intercessors, not just zealous
- 39:40people praying. You'll be learning the rules of
- 39:43engagement. Just because you are shouting in
- 39:45the name of Jesus does not mean you are praying.
- 39:48You have to be able to pray in a way that is fervent and
- 39:51effectual. Dissipating energy sincerely so
- 39:55does not mean you are making any reasonable contact in the
- 39:57Spirit. Are we together?
- 40:00Praise the name of the Lord. We need intercessors.
- 40:03And I'm praying for some of you who are already in the
- 40:05intercessory ministry. May tonight's teaching equip you
- 40:09and bring you to a point where you are able to stand in as
- 40:12intercessors, as gatekeepers, as Watchmen over Canada, over North
- 40:18America, over your various regions in the name of Jesus.
- 40:22I sense in this season that women will rise, wailing women.
- 40:26I sense in this season that men will arise.
- 40:29I sense in this reason that in this season that God will be
- 40:33hand picking people across every family.
- 40:38They are the ones who will. Drive and stay away the power
- 40:42and abort the plan of darkness just because.
- 40:46You saw it in a. Dream does not mean it must
- 40:48happen. This is where the power of
- 40:50intercession comes in. If it is not consistent with the
- 40:54will of God, you can use it is written to cancel away what you
- 40:58saw. I have taught you that it is
- 41:00written is greater than I saw. It is written is greater than I
- 41:04heard. It doesn't matter what you saw
- 41:06or you heard. You can take the Word of God,
- 41:09put it on the lips of faith and engage through the prayer
- 41:12platform and change things for someone.
- 41:14Prophecy. Say it must change everything
- 41:18that does not look like Jesus Christ must change.
- 41:20Say it must change failure. Must change in the place of.
- 41:24Prayer disappointment must change in the place of prayer.
- 41:28Delay and stagnation must change in the place of prayer.
- 41:31I have the power to manipulate outcomes to be consistent with
- 41:35the will of God. I'm not disadvantaged.
- 41:38Prayer gives me a leverage in the Spirit.
- 41:40I can use the Word of God and pass it through the refinery of
- 41:44prayer, and change things and change things for our life
- 41:48affliction, which is but for a moment it walketh it us a far
- 41:53more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
- 41:56It says, while we look not at the things that are seen, but
- 41:59the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are
- 42:02temporal, temporal, temporal. Please, you may be seated, but
- 42:20in everything. By prayer and supplication, you
- 42:24can change things in the place of prayer you don't know.
- 42:28How cheap it? Is to manifest.
- 42:31Victory over. Satan and demonic forces.
- 42:34Until you learn the mystery of prayer, Satan is as powerful in
- 42:40your life as your prayerlessness.
- 42:43Let me say that again. Satan is as powerful in your
- 42:47life as your prayerlessness. If you know how to pray and to
- 42:52pray with understanding, you can keep the devil at Bay as if he
- 42:57does not exist. Praise the name of the Lord #8
- 43:04we said. Last week, still.
- 43:05Recapping. Beautiful recap.
- 43:07It is, isn't it? You're already getting blessed.
- 43:10Prayer activates. The.
- 43:11Ministry of Angels as part of God's overall strategy for
- 43:18enforcing victory in the life of a believer or a territory.
- 43:22Let me take that slowly because I want you to write it down.
- 43:25Prayer activates the ministry of angels.
- 43:28This is good as part of God's strategy for enforcing victory
- 43:35in the life of an individual and in a territory.
- 43:38The angelic ministry plays a vital role as part of God's
- 43:43overall strategy for enforcing victory.
- 43:47Are we together in the life of a believer and across a territory?
- 43:51From Genesis to Revelation, you see the angels of God walking in
- 43:55partnership with the Word of God, walking in partnership with
- 43:58the Holy Spirit. Whether they are repassed, The
- 44:01Bible says the repass, the laborers, the repast are the
- 44:04angels, so the angels. Walk in partnership.
- 44:08With men are we together. When it has to do with the
- 44:11ministry of protection, you find angels there too.
- 44:14When you find the ministry of strengthening, you find the
- 44:17angels too. When Jesus was done praying and
- 44:20fasting, the angels came and ministered to him.
- 44:23The Bible calls them ministering spirits.
- 44:25That should be Hebrews 114. Are they not all, not some?
- 44:30Are they not all ministering spirits?
- 44:33He says Send to minister today. That be the heirs of salvation.
- 44:38Are they not all ministering spirits?
- 44:41Hebrews 114 In Psalms 91 and verse 11 the psalmist was
- 44:47speaking so beautifully, and he said He shall, he shall keep his
- 44:51angels. Give it to us.
- 44:52Psalm 91 and verse 11 Someone read it like a word you are
- 44:57receiving in this season 1 to go, for he shall give his angels
- 45:01charge over you. Come on to keep you in all your
- 45:05ways. In fact, the Bible says verse.
- 45:0912 They shall bear thee upon their wings, lest you dash your
- 45:13feet against a stone. Let me do a little Bible quiz
- 45:16for you Bible students. Who do you remember quoting the
- 45:19Scripture in the New Testament? Satan himself, He knows the
- 45:23Scripture. He knows it.
- 45:26Temptation #2 This was the scripture he brought.
- 45:30He said, remember it is written. Satan too uses the word.
- 45:35It is written. They.
- 45:38Shall bear you upon their. Wings, lest you dash your feet
- 45:41against a stone. I did say last week that angels
- 45:47according to. Scripture are involved with
- 45:49worship, as we find in Revelation 5, Revelation 7, they
- 45:53are involved with receiving prayers and delivering answers
- 45:58as we find in Revelation chapter 8.
- 46:00We find that in Daniel Chapter 9.
- 46:03They are responsible for providing guidance, delivering
- 46:07messages. They are responsible for warfare
- 46:11and protection. There was war in heaven.
- 46:13It was Michael the Archangel that fought.
- 46:17We mentioned different classes of spirit beings that operate in
- 46:20the angelic capacity, the share roofs, the seraphs, the
- 46:25archangels, the messenger angels, the warring angels.
- 46:29There's there's an elaborate discussion.
- 46:31There's a theological is strong and broad theological exergesis
- 46:37on the ministry of angels, and it's important that believers at
- 46:42the very least understand that they are there.
- 46:45Even if you do not understand the whole classification of
- 46:48angels, it is fair enough for you, as you grow spiritually, to
- 46:52be aware of their presence, that they are there.
- 46:55When Jesus was born, they were angels.
- 46:57When Jesus began his ministry after the temptation, they were
- 47:00angels. The only part of Jesus's life
- 47:03where there were no angels was when he was at the cross from
- 47:07Beth until his ascension. When he ascended he was 2 angels
- 47:11who said why look thee at Jesus who is lifted.
- 47:13He says he will return in the same way as you have seen him
- 47:16go. The only time in Jesus's
- 47:19ministry where there were no angels was at the cross and that
- 47:23was because he became man and he was dying for man.
- 47:26You need the ministry of angels. Now, I did make a statement last
- 47:30week and I hope I make it against for your learning.
- 47:34There's no record in scripture where the believer is mandated
- 47:37to command angels and I need to correct this with all due
- 47:41respect. Sometimes preachers, you know,
- 47:44talk about commanding angels and I understand what they mean to
- 47:47say, but all the same, it's not scriptural.
- 47:51When angels look like they are obeying you is because they are
- 47:54obeying the word that comes from you.
- 47:57They are assigned to the word, their responses with respect to
- 48:01the word. But when the believer takes the
- 48:03word of God and puts it upon the lips of faith and makes the
- 48:07declaration of the Word, they move the direction of that word
- 48:11so it will look like you are the one they are obeying.
- 48:13You walk in disobedience and you know it was not you they were
- 48:16obeying. You see that now the Bible says
- 48:20they excel in strength and they they obey.
- 48:23How? How does it put it as a way that
- 48:25the Bible puts it there? So it's angels.
- 48:27You don't command angels per SE. You can activate the ministry of
- 48:32angels in your life and across the territory.
- 48:36And the way you activate the ministry of angels is to declare
- 48:40the word because the angelic ministry, just like the power of
- 48:43God, responds to the Word. I told you where you want to
- 48:47know where the power of God is. Find out where the Word of God
- 48:50has gone to any direction of the Word of God is where the power
- 48:54of God is, because the assignment of the power of God,
- 48:57like the angelic ministry, is to bring confirmation to the world.
- 49:01Who is understanding this? So when you say in the name of
- 49:04Jesus, I release the ministry of angels, say that with the
- 49:07mentality that the Word of God has gone that direction, and the
- 49:11angelic ministry as part of God's overall strategy will also
- 49:17go that direction, you understand?
- 49:20Yeah, but the arrogance. That ignorance brings sometimes
- 49:23in believers. I command you, Angel, come and
- 49:25stand before me. And I know all those things.
- 49:27It doesn't work that way. If you really see an Angel,
- 49:30whether he has wings or not, I can tell you an average Angel is
- 49:34by far bigger than Goliath. Except the angels.
- 49:37Now there are a class of angels that look like humans.
- 49:42I can tell you everybody here has at least met one.
- 49:47Yes, the Bible says. To be careful as you.
- 49:49Entertain strangers, it says, for I need some of you have
- 49:52entertained angels unaware so there are a class of angels
- 49:56whose formation because of the nature of their ministry, you
- 50:00thought you spoke to a man It is when.
- 50:04God opens your eyes. You will see that.
- 50:06That formation was not human. You spoke to an Angel.
- 50:09They have rescued many of you. Let me surprise you, many of
- 50:12them came in the similitude of people you already knew and you
- 50:16thought it was a continuation of a conversation, whereas the
- 50:19Angel just came in and bridged something, corrected something
- 50:21and left. May you encounter their
- 50:23ministry. Let me inform you, Body of
- 50:26Christ, as we prepare for this glorious move of God, I believe.
- 50:31Now listen. Angels are assigned to every
- 50:36believer in Christ according to scripture.
- 50:39Children, adults, once you are a believer in Christ, there is an
- 50:44assignment of angels to help minister to you as an overall
- 50:48strategy that brings you victory.
- 50:51Number 2, when you answer the call of God upon your life,
- 50:54whether the fivefold ministry or that which makes for Kingdom and
- 50:58Kingdom come, please help them. There is a designation.
- 51:04Please lend me your attention. These are just supernatural
- 51:06manifestations of the Holy Spirit.
- 51:08Hallelujah. Now are we together.
- 51:11So when you discover your call, your prophetic call, more so if
- 51:16it has to do with the fivefold ministry, there is a designation
- 51:20of the angelic ministry that is connected to that call.
- 51:25It helps to bring strength and it helps to bring efficiency to
- 51:29your ministry. Revelations one verse one this
- 51:32the revelation of Jesus Christ which he gave on to his servant
- 51:36John. He sent it and signified it by
- 51:39his Angel. Now there are times that the
- 51:43Bible uses the word. Angels to refer to men of God,
- 51:46the ones who oversee the work, like you read in the seven
- 51:50churches to the Angel in Philadelphia, right?
- 51:53The word there is not angels. Men.
- 51:55These are men. You get the idea.
- 51:57But now there are real angels. There are angels that are
- 52:02dispatched when God. When is when a prophetic season
- 52:06comes upon a believer or a territory, there is a release of
- 52:11angels for that assignment. When you are engaging in
- 52:14warfare, especially during times where there are times that will
- 52:19happen in the life of every believer, when there's an
- 52:21unusual attack. At that point, there is a
- 52:24deployment of angels. They will not always be with
- 52:26you. These ones come to you.
- 52:28I don't have the time to show you.
- 52:30In Acts chapter 12, the Bible talks about the church praying
- 52:33over Peter. You remember, and an Angel was
- 52:36sent to come and rescue Peter. The Bible says they did not open
- 52:39the door when he knocked because they thought it was his Angel.
- 52:42So Peter had his Angel, but this one who came was not his Angel.
- 52:46He came in response to the prayer of the church.
- 52:49After he delivered him, he left. When Paul was having an issue.
- 52:56And the boat was going to capsize, remember, he prayed and
- 52:59an Angel appeared before him and said, tell the people there
- 53:02shall be no loss. He said, I bring you
- 53:04announcements, paraphrasing, an Angel has appeared unto me and
- 53:08he has said there shall be no lost.
- 53:10The Bible says the boat rocked, rocked.
- 53:12They lost a few things, but it went safely and arrived at an
- 53:15island called Melita. Are we still together?
- 53:18There are times where angels threw hailstones to and killed
- 53:22people in their thousands. Who understands this so far?
- 53:26The ministry. Of angels.
- 53:28I'm praying. For you where the.
- 53:32Ministry of Angels have been. Dormant in your life because of
- 53:35your neglect of the Word or because you did not walk in the
- 53:38consciousness of their ministry, they are a part of God's overall
- 53:43strategy for your victory. I pray for you.
- 53:46In the name of Jesus, you will begin to enjoy the ministry of
- 53:49angels. Shout Amen.
- 53:53Shout Amen again, praise God. Now let's go.
- 53:57To part three, let us pray. The rules of.
- 54:01Engagement I'd like to start. By teaching.
- 54:05Us what the Bible calls the various kinds of prayer.
- 54:10Let's go to Ephesians chapter 6 and verse 18.
- 54:15There is a skill to prayer and the Bible talks to us about
- 54:21praying with all kinds of prayer or all prayer.
- 54:25I think NKJV if I recall says all kinds or one of the
- 54:29renditions it says praying always with all prayer.
- 54:34Somebody say all prayer or all kinds?
- 54:38Of prayer. So there are various kinds of
- 54:41prayer that are available, and it's important that the believer
- 54:47is mentored and trained to understand the kinds of prayer
- 54:52that are available and when to use them.
- 54:55If you want to be efficient as far as the ministry of prayer is
- 54:59concerned, you need to know when to pray, what kind of prayer.
- 55:03And I've pieced together a few of them, at least five of them.
- 55:07I'll run to it very quickly, and then we'll go to why prayers
- 55:10fail to produce answers. I need us to get there.
- 55:13We need to know why prayers fail to produce answers.
- 55:17Can you pray in the Spirit for one minute?
- 55:22We'll be looking at the various kinds of.
- 55:24Prayer Glory be to the name of the Lord.
- 55:26Someone's prayer life is changing.
- 55:30Someone's prayer life is changing.
- 55:32Go ahead and pray. Lift your voice and pray.
- 55:38You are stepping into a level of the grace of God.
- 55:43Fear dies in your life. You're my.
- 55:47Hiding. Place my safe refuge, my
- 55:53treasure, Lord, you are. My friend and king.
- 56:03Anointed one most hope you're my.
- 56:12Hiding. Place my safe refuge, my
- 56:19treasure, Lord, you are. My friend that king anointed. 1.
- 56:38For someone when you learn the various.
- 56:40Kinds of prayers that are available.
- 56:43You will not fear storms again. Your fears will die because you
- 56:47will see that you were not left without the arsenals, the
- 56:50resources. I was speaking to the leaders
- 56:53yesterday at our retreat or the workers, and one of the things I
- 56:57told them was that God does. Not send.
- 57:01People, without making available the resources that makes for
- 57:04your efficiency, it's not enough to understand your assignment.
- 57:10You must also understand the resources that have been made
- 57:12available, he said. As my father has sent me the
- 57:16same mission but the same equipment as my father has sent
- 57:21me, so send Are you so the Bible?
- 57:26Teaches that there are. Various kinds of prayer.
- 57:29Let me list a few of them for you.
- 57:31Ready #1 praying in the Spirit. What we know generally as
- 57:37praying in tongues. Now, praying in the Spirit goes
- 57:39beyond praying in tongues, but for the purpose of our
- 57:42discussion, let's contextualize it to refer to praying in
- 57:47tongues. The word tongues is an ancient
- 57:49word that just means languages, in this case, divine languages,
- 57:53the prayer language. You may want to call it for
- 57:55short. If you're writing, would you put
- 57:57in bracket the prayer language? I'm happy that by the grace of
- 58:06God, I. Think that maybe in the last
- 58:08five years or thereabout, several teachings have come
- 58:12across the body of Christ that has helped to strengthen the
- 58:15understanding of people as to the value and the prophet of the
- 58:21prayer language. Until now, it's been a heavy
- 58:24subject of debate across different denominations and
- 58:28Christian expressions. Some believe it, some don't.
- 58:32Some have a theological explanation, some just feel it's
- 58:36a lot of gibberish that should be thrown away the the goal.
- 58:41Is not to create. Any debate or any concept or
- 58:44subject of discussion and and create all kinds of debates.
- 58:47But I will tell you this by the authority of Scripture.
- 58:50The prayer language is an advantage that God gave the
- 58:53believer and it does many things, many things, many
- 58:57things. Among them it brings edification
- 59:00and growth. The Bible says in first
- 59:02Corinthians chapter 14 and verse 2 it says he that speaketh in an
- 59:06unknown tongue speaketh not unto men but unto God, for no man
- 59:12understands him. It may not make intelligent
- 59:16sense to an intellectual. However, please keep us to it
- 59:20says how be it in the Spirit he speaketh mysteries.
- 59:26And if you want to know anything about this mysteries you have to
- 59:29refer to 1st Corinthians chapter 2.
- 59:31The Bible says when we are among them that are mature we speak
- 59:34mysteries. You know these are the mysteries
- 59:36that have been ordained for our glory.
- 59:39When you pray in the spirit, among the many things it does is
- 59:43that it strengthens your capacities, a growth system.
- 59:48It doesn't just. Activate your organs of.
- 59:50Interaction with the realm of the Spirit.
- 59:52It strengthens your understanding.
- 59:53Praying in tongues is also a transportation system.
- 59:56It can bring into your space spiritually and then mentally
- 1:00:00the will of God. Hallelujah.
- 1:00:03The Bible says we do not know what to pray for us, we ought
- 1:00:05to, but it says the Spirit make it intercession for us using
- 1:00:10that same prayer language. I'm praying through US the will
- 1:00:14of God. Hallelujah.
- 1:00:17So if you are in this place and you've not experienced what we
- 1:00:20know as the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of
- 1:00:23praying in tongues, you may want to do a little study so that it
- 1:00:28builds your conviction. What I propose to you and I
- 1:00:31advise you in righteousness, you will be robbed of an opportunity
- 1:00:34to grow constructively and become a mighty man in the
- 1:00:37Spirit if you do not open up your heart to receive the prayer
- 1:00:41language, praise the name of the Lord.
- 1:00:44So praying in the Spirit. This is very powerful.
- 1:00:48The Bible already told us that. We see in.
- 1:00:50Parts and we prophecy in parts #2 The Bible says sometimes we
- 1:00:54do not know what to pray for us. We ought to.
- 1:00:57This is very powerful. How many of you know?
- 1:00:59Let me use medicine for instance.
- 1:01:01There are times you can have a headache, but what is wrong with
- 1:01:05you is not headache. That headache is only responding
- 1:01:08to something else that is wrong with you, am I right?
- 1:01:11So whilst you may want to take something, maybe an over the
- 1:01:15counter pill or drug, something that just solves the headache,
- 1:01:19it keeps persisting because the issue is not headache.
- 1:01:22You would have to go to a doctor and upon examining you, they may
- 1:01:26tell you that that pounding headache is responding to
- 1:01:29something else. It's a signal.
- 1:01:31That's how it is spiritually. Sometimes you may find your
- 1:01:34finances having a problem, but the real problem is not
- 1:01:37finances. Sometimes you can.
- 1:01:40Find an issue in your marriage. But it's not a marriage issue at
- 1:01:43all. You will need to consult with
- 1:01:45intelligence of the Spirit to know the origin and the intent
- 1:01:49of that problem, not the expression of it.
- 1:01:52There are times that your health can be deteriorated, but what
- 1:01:55Satan is looking for is not your health, it's your finances.
- 1:01:58But he wants to use his ill health to keep depleting your
- 1:02:02finances. So while you are busy praying
- 1:02:04for healing, what is really attacking is your finances.
- 1:02:07But when you begin to pray in the Spirit, I call it distilled
- 1:02:10prayer, prayer with accuracy. The Holy Spirit who knows all
- 1:02:14things, the Holy Spirit who knows the mind of the Father and
- 1:02:18who sees all things, are we together, is able to pray
- 1:02:21accurately through your faculties.
- 1:02:23Now the words may not make any sense to you, Baba, Baba and all
- 1:02:27of those. That's why the Bible says that
- 1:02:29the natural man cannot receive the things of the Spirit because
- 1:02:33they are spiritually desired. Hallelujah, I remember
- 1:02:41listening. To Charles and Francis Hunter,
- 1:02:43profound, profound people. When it has to do with the
- 1:02:47healing ministry and the revelation of the baptism of the
- 1:02:51Holy Spirit. I think these two areas, God
- 1:02:53gave them great authority and if you do find their materials,
- 1:02:57anytime is worth your. The healing the sick is one of
- 1:03:00their classics, I think. Yeah, Healing the sick,
- 1:03:04Charleston, Francis Hunter profound people.
- 1:03:07They influence my life in many ways as far as the healing
- 1:03:09ministry is concerned. Lovely couple, very, very free
- 1:03:13spirited. But my goodness, I mean, those
- 1:03:16people were anointed the earth. The earth saw people who came
- 1:03:20and conquered and left Charleston.
- 1:03:22Francis Hunter, very profound people.
- 1:03:26It may interest you to know, I hope I'm still right, that it
- 1:03:29was said that almost all through their lifetime together as a
- 1:03:32couple, there were only few times or at least no time that
- 1:03:35they were separated. They did everything together,
- 1:03:38casted out demons together. Hallelujah, no wonder they were
- 1:03:42effective. Praise the name of the Lord.
- 1:03:48Say As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
- 1:03:54Save my house. Jesus and Lucifer will not
- 1:04:00coexist. Say that like you believe.
- 1:04:03Say my house, Jesus and Satan will not coexist.
- 1:04:09Light and darkness will not coexist and if that is the case
- 1:04:15in your house in the name of Jesus, I'm supplying for you the
- 1:04:18tools tonight that you will begin to war with until you
- 1:04:22drive everything that looks like Satan out of your house because
- 1:04:26John 15 says and the light shine it in the darkness it says and
- 1:04:30the darkness comprehended it not someone say let there be light
- 1:04:35now your prophesying say. Let there be light.
- 1:04:38In your house, let there be light.
- 1:04:41In your body, let there be light, not light and darkness.
- 1:04:45The Bible says God separated the light and darkness.
- 1:04:48He separated the light and darkness.
- 1:04:52Hallelujah. Train in the Spirit prayer model
- 1:04:57number 2. Are you?
- 1:05:00Ready. So there are.
- 1:05:02Times where you engage the prayer language, praying in the
- 1:05:06Spirit, believing by faith. And I I didn't tell you this.
- 1:05:10One of the ways to pray in the Spirit effectively is that even
- 1:05:15though your understanding is fruitful, the Bible says what?
- 1:05:18Many times God will use the power of imagery to direct you
- 1:05:22so your mind is on the subject matter you are praying about and
- 1:05:27yet you are praying in the Spirit, knowing, seeing through
- 1:05:30the eyes of your spirit that changes are happening right now.
- 1:05:33Prayer model #2 Let's hurry up. Faith filled declaration of
- 1:05:38Scripture. Faith filled declaration of
- 1:05:42Scripture. This is the second prayer model.
- 1:05:45Faith filled declaration of Scripture.
- 1:05:48Psalm one, O 7, two, and three. Let's hurry up.
- 1:05:51We have a lot to do. Psalm one, O 7, two, and three.
- 1:05:58Let the redeemed of the Lord. Talk to me, believers, Let the
- 1:06:02redeemed of the Lord, whom he had redeemed from the hand of
- 1:06:06the enemy, verse three, he says, and gathered them out of the
- 1:06:10lands from the east, the West, the north, the South.
- 1:06:12Let the redeemed of the Lord say so.
- 1:06:15Ecclesiastes chapter 8 and verse 4.
- 1:06:18Ecclesiastes chapter 8 and verse 4.
- 1:06:20Faith filled declaration of Scripture.
- 1:06:23Read the first part until the colon ready 1 to go.
- 1:06:27Where the word of a king is, there is.
- 1:06:31Again, where the word of a king is, there is.
- 1:06:35Where the word of Joshua Salman is, there is.
- 1:06:38Don't have the time to call your name tonight I'm busy about my
- 1:06:41own destiny. Where the word of Joshua Salman
- 1:06:43is, there is. Where the word of a king is,
- 1:06:49there is. Power, power.
- 1:06:53But where the king? Does not use the word he has.
- 1:06:57You see, there's only potential power I.
- 1:07:02Prophesied as I was commanded. And then there was a sound
- 1:07:06everybody say faith filled declaration.
- 1:07:09Now I'll tell you how this prayer model works.
- 1:07:13This prayer. Model works.
- 1:07:15Only when you have a sound understanding of the promises of
- 1:07:19God. You cannot use this prayer model
- 1:07:22in ignorance. Now you can pray in the Spirit
- 1:07:25even if you do not know any verse, because the Holy Ghost is
- 1:07:27helping you and you are speaking in words that are not
- 1:07:30intelligent. Intelligent to the mind.
- 1:07:33How be it in the Spirit you are speaking mysteries.
- 1:07:36But for you to make faith filled declarations of Scripture, the
- 1:07:40demand is that the word of Christ must dwell in your heart
- 1:07:43richly by faith. Colossians three and verse 16.
- 1:07:49You see that? Let the word of.
- 1:07:51Christ dwell in you richly out of the abundance of the wealth
- 1:07:55of the world, the wealth of the promises of God deposited in
- 1:07:59your spirit. I'm going to demonstrate it for
- 1:08:01you. So you see how you pray that
- 1:08:03prayer. That is when you use the
- 1:08:06creative dimension of prayer, this one, you're not just asking
- 1:08:11God. I hope you know that prayer
- 1:08:13generally has to do with speaking with God.
- 1:08:16But there are dimensions of prayer that has to do with you
- 1:08:19creating possibilities by the power of God.
- 1:08:22You are not directly talking to God.
- 1:08:24This is where that dimension is. So when you get up in the
- 1:08:28morning. And say in the name of.
- 1:08:29Jesus Christ, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, this is the
- 1:08:32day the Lord has made. I declare that I rejoice and I
- 1:08:36am glad in it. You see, you are not directly
- 1:08:38talking to God. You are speaking to that
- 1:08:40situation. Are we together?
- 1:08:43The lines fall for me in. Pleasant places.
- 1:08:46I have a goodly heritage as I go out today.
- 1:08:49I'm blessed in my going out. I'm blessed in my coming in.
- 1:08:53I'm showing you this scriptural prayer model.
- 1:08:56Everyone who meets me desires to bless me because I am Beulah and
- 1:09:00Hevzibah. The wisdom of God is at work in
- 1:09:02me. The Bible says I have the mind
- 1:09:04of Christ. In the name of the Lord Jesus
- 1:09:06Christ. There is a spirit in me and the
- 1:09:09inspiration of the Almighty makes me of understanding.
- 1:09:13Is someone learning now? My hands are.
- 1:09:15Blessed. The works of my hands are
- 1:09:17blessed again. My going out is blessed.
- 1:09:19My coming in is blessed you lay hands on your.
- 1:09:23Children and you declare that they.
- 1:09:24Are blessed. They have the mind of Christ.
- 1:09:26They excel because the Spirit of God is hard work in them.
- 1:09:29I declare my body is blessed. The same spirit that raised
- 1:09:32Christ from the dead dwells in my mortal body.
- 1:09:35He quickens my mortal body onto health and vitality in the name
- 1:09:39of Jesus. Every organ in my body is
- 1:09:42blessed fate. Filled declarations.
- 1:09:48The Lord is my light. And my salvation.
- 1:09:50Of whom shall I be afraid of? You see that when they who seek
- 1:09:54my flesh come, they stumble and they fall.
- 1:09:57Faith fill declarations. You must hide the word of God in
- 1:10:01your heart so that you make these declarations.
- 1:10:04Not just all God. Is this how you keep watching
- 1:10:06me? This is already February.
- 1:10:08How many more months you count by yourself?
- 1:10:10That is lamentation. How many people do those things
- 1:10:12now? God is a merciful God.
- 1:10:14But I'm telling you, if you want to gain mastery in prayer, you
- 1:10:17must understand that you have a responsibility as a core laborer
- 1:10:21to create your possibilities in the.
- 1:10:25Name of Jesus. I refuse to fail.
- 1:10:28The Bible says I am victorious. Victory is part of my life.
- 1:10:31I make declarations by the Spirit of God.
- 1:10:34Though my beginning be small, my later end shall greatly
- 1:10:37increase. I excel in ministry.
- 1:10:39I cannot fail. The works of my hands is
- 1:10:41blessed. If the Spirit that raised Christ
- 1:10:43dwells in me, He revitalizes my mortal body.
- 1:10:47Is someone learning now? I decree and declare.
- 1:10:49The hand of God is upon me. The anointing is speaking.
- 1:10:52Evidently I go about doing good because the hand of God is at
- 1:10:57work in me. I am a blessing.
- 1:10:58The Bible already says so that in me all the families in Canada
- 1:11:02will be blessed. I am not a curse to any family.
- 1:11:05I am a blessing. My heart is indicted.
- 1:11:08A good matter. Yeah, I speak of excellent
- 1:11:10things. My tongue is a pen of a ready
- 1:11:13writer. I write blessings in the lives
- 1:11:15of men. I write Increase in the lives of
- 1:11:17men. Because he has made me unto my
- 1:11:23God, a king. And a priest.
- 1:11:24And the Bible says where the word of a king is, there is
- 1:11:27power. Therefore, as I speak, I command
- 1:11:29the elemental forces. They will respond, because I'm
- 1:11:32speaking as one who is sent. Come on now.
- 1:11:39I declare Monday you are blessed.
- 1:11:42I instruct you to be blessed because you are the day that the
- 1:11:45Lord has made. I will rejoice everything,
- 1:11:48fighting my joy. The Bible says because the Lord
- 1:11:51has made that day I will rejoice.
- 1:11:53Therefore I declare I rejoice and I am glad in it.
- 1:11:56My Monday you are blessed. Tuesday you are blessed.
- 1:12:00Wednesday you are blessed. Thursday you are blessed.
- 1:12:03Friday you are blessed. Saturday you are blessed in the
- 1:12:06name of Jesus Christ God. Has not given me the spirit of
- 1:12:12fear. But the spirit of love, of
- 1:12:14power, and of a sound mind. Therefore I declare the fear
- 1:12:19that comes from pills, I cast you away.
- 1:12:22The fear that comes from the future of my children, I cast
- 1:12:25you away. The fear that comes from the
- 1:12:27pending issues as regards my paper, my migration issue, I
- 1:12:32cast you in the name of Jesus. Fear that relates to finances, I
- 1:12:36cast you in the name of Jesus. Hallelujah.
- 1:12:44The fear that comes by reason of being old.
- 1:12:47I cast you. Being old is not a curse.
- 1:12:49The Bible says they that be planted in the House of God,
- 1:12:53they shall flourish in the courts of our God, That even in
- 1:12:56old age they shall be fat and they shall be flourishing.
- 1:12:59As I age I blow so as I age I bloom.
- 1:13:03I don't deplete. He keepeth his bones, and none
- 1:13:06is broken. Now let me tell you this, ladies
- 1:13:08and gentlemen, if you don't know how to speak like this, speaking
- 1:13:14like this. Is sowing.
- 1:13:18That's how. You plant seeds in the garden of
- 1:13:20your. Destiny and can I tell you if
- 1:13:23you keep quiet, someone else also has seeds.
- 1:13:27There is an enemy that. Has seeds.
- 1:13:30And he will plant a lot of rubbish in your garden.
- 1:13:32As for me, I won't be silent. I will speak that in the name of
- 1:13:38Jesus 2026, you have to be better than 2025 because the
- 1:13:42Bible says the part of the just is as a shining light.
- 1:13:46It shines brighter and brighter onto the perfect day.
- 1:13:51In the name of Jesus, the Son of the living God, the favor of God
- 1:13:54is upon my face. No man will reject me who has
- 1:13:58been anointed to partner with my destiny.
- 1:14:01In the name that is above all names, Koinonia goes from glory
- 1:14:04to glory. Koinonia, Canada.
- 1:14:07Koinonia, US Koinonia, Abuja, colonial global You are the
- 1:14:11beloved of the Lord in the name of Jesus.
- 1:14:23Do you believe what you are learning?
- 1:14:27That's how it works out. Faith filled declarations.
- 1:14:33Faith filled declarations. This is.
- 1:14:39Especially a powerful tool. I'm going to be showing you you
- 1:14:44blend this, especially when you are dealing with matters that
- 1:14:49conflict the world. Intercession does not just stop.
- 1:14:54At asking and crying and say I bind demons.
- 1:14:57It's not always about a demon issue when you clear the land
- 1:15:01you create. There is no farmer who reads.
- 1:15:07His land of debris and weed then leaves it like that and goes
- 1:15:11away. You didn't do anything then
- 1:15:13because the weed will grow again after you clear the land.
- 1:15:16Talk to me. What do you do?
- 1:15:18Talk to me, what do you do? That's right, warfare.
- 1:15:23Clears the land. But when you leave the land that
- 1:15:26way, you've cleared the land. The Bible says when a demon
- 1:15:30spirit leaves a man, what does it do?
- 1:15:33It goes through dry regions looking for a place of refuge
- 1:15:36and finding none. It will remember that it came
- 1:15:39from a house. He says, let me go back to my
- 1:15:41house. And it finds that house swept
- 1:15:45clean, but empty. Empty.
- 1:15:51Empty. No failure.
- 1:15:53In the name of Jesus, this is my destiny.
- 1:15:56You have yours. You can choose what you want to
- 1:15:58believe. Don't rob your belief on me.
- 1:16:01No, no, no, no. You have your own destiny.
- 1:16:03If you choose failure, I love you.
- 1:16:05I will be glad to help you when you fail.
- 1:16:07But As for me and God, I have chosen my path.
- 1:16:10It's a path of victory. In the name of Jesus.
- 1:16:13I am victorious. It's a path of victory.
- 1:16:16So my beginning be small my letter and shall greatly
- 1:16:20increase in the name of Jesus. Listen.
- 1:16:27I'll tell you this. We live in a world where people.
- 1:16:32Will want to force you into subscribing to their belief.
- 1:16:37You have to respect people and choose what you believe the word
- 1:16:40of God says if you have a problem.
- 1:16:44With victory, I still. Love you but don't try to rob
- 1:16:47off your mentality on me because God did not give us shared
- 1:16:51destinies. You have your destiny.
- 1:16:53Do with it whatever you want to do.
- 1:16:55I will be glad to pray for you when you allow sickness to take
- 1:16:58you. I'll be glad to pray for you
- 1:17:00when you allow all kinds of demons and courses to walk.
- 1:17:02But As for me and God and my destiny, I will sit on the
- 1:17:07wheels of my destiny in partnership with the Word and
- 1:17:10the Holy Spirit, and drive that destiny till it looks like
- 1:17:13prophecy. I am victorious.
- 1:17:21I have overcome. I am victorious.
- 1:17:31I have. Say, in the name of Jesus.
- 1:17:58I am born again. I'm a child of God.
- 1:18:02The Spirit of God leaves in me. The wisdom of God is not working
- 1:18:08me. The favor of God is upon my
- 1:18:11head. I am guided by the Spirit of
- 1:18:15God. I am not a rebel.
- 1:18:17I am yielded, therefore, by the hand of God.
- 1:18:22I move progressively to the place of destiny.
- 1:18:25I refuse to fear. God has not given me the spirit
- 1:18:30of fear, but of love, of power and of the South Mind fear.
- 1:18:36You are a foreign spirit. I cast you out of my life.
- 1:18:40I decree and I declare that I'm not alone in Canada.
- 1:18:45I'm not alone in Canada. I'm not alone in Abuja.
- 1:18:50I'm not alone in US. I'm not alone.
- 1:18:54Is that no? I am with you always.
- 1:18:57I am not alone. I may look alone but I have the
- 1:19:01backing of heaven. I am not alone over that
- 1:19:04situation. I can, I can fail alone, but me
- 1:19:07and God cannot fail. Together we have become a tactic
- 1:19:11my senior partner. I can fail alone.
- 1:19:21Without prophesying, I know that outside of him I'm a failure
- 1:19:26already. I don't have to act it.
- 1:19:28It's already so, but he that. Is joined to Christ.
- 1:19:33Is 1 Spirit, one spirit indomitable, 1 Spirit who
- 1:19:41understands? This.
- 1:19:43Let faith rise. From your spirit man.
- 1:19:46Let fear die. This is not some Pentecostal
- 1:19:49motivation. No Sir, no Sir.
- 1:19:52This is how the Kingdom operates.
- 1:19:54You don't choose your formula. It's been there.
- 1:19:57It's the ordinance of the Kingdom.
- 1:19:58It's how victories produce from a believer.
- 1:20:07Say thank you, Jesus. When you wake.
- 1:20:11Up in the morning. You make declarations every time
- 1:20:16a mountain. Stands before you.
- 1:20:18Every time someone says something that is inconsistent
- 1:20:21with the word of God, you may not have to shout it at their
- 1:20:24faces because you still work with the law of honor.
- 1:20:27But sometimes you may need to go to the restroom for two minutes
- 1:20:30and shut your door and say in the name of Jesus, He insulted
- 1:20:33me and he called me a failure. I respect him, but I don't
- 1:20:37respect the seed he's sowing. I declined the name of Jesus.
- 1:20:40I countered that word. I am victorious, still
- 1:20:44victorious. Please sit down.
- 1:20:51Please sit down. Please sit down, Faith.
- 1:20:56Filled declarations of Scripture for the purpose of creating your
- 1:21:00possibilities. Now I hope you know that man was
- 1:21:03created in the image and the likeness of God.
- 1:21:06The image of God talks about the character, the nature of God.
- 1:21:10But the likeness of God talks about the capacity to function
- 1:21:13like God. And the first way to function
- 1:21:16like God is to speak like God, because that's the first.
- 1:21:20Function of God we see in the. Bible and God said not, God did
- 1:21:25not, God made and God said you are not like God if you don't
- 1:21:30speak like him. He did not say darkness, why did
- 1:21:33you come? You don't respect me.
- 1:21:35He said light be the talking spirit.
- 1:21:39Light. Be you're not just a life giving
- 1:21:41spirit, you're a talking spirit. Hallelujah. #3 the third prayer
- 1:21:52model the Bible teaches us ready is called the prayer of inquiry.
- 1:21:56Let's go to first Samuel 30 and verse eight.
- 1:21:59Let me rush this. We need to go to why prayers
- 1:22:01fail to produce answers. But the third prayer model is
- 1:22:04called the prayer of inquiry. And David inquired at the Lord
- 1:22:08saying, shall I pursue after this troop and will I overtake
- 1:22:13them? You need to understand who is
- 1:22:16speaking. Here we're talking.
- 1:22:17David And he answered him and said, Pursue, for thou shalt
- 1:22:22surely overtake them, and without fail recover.
- 1:22:28There are times where. The Bible as.
- 1:22:30The written word may not give you exact answers in terms of
- 1:22:35answers bespoke to what you are looking for.
- 1:22:38At that point you must learn to inquire of the Lord.
- 1:22:41I'm going to be showing you the ways to discern the will of God
- 1:22:44concerning any matter. Are we together?
- 1:22:47The prayer of inquiry is very powerful.
- 1:22:50Should I pursue, should I overtake?
- 1:22:52Sometimes, you know as believers we become careless over our
- 1:22:55lives and take very costly decisions, not minding whether
- 1:23:00we are consistent with the will of God or not.
- 1:23:02The reason why we need to inquire of the Lord is because
- 1:23:05the Bible says there is a way that cement right onto a man.
- 1:23:09Is that not in your Bible? It says, but the end thereof are
- 1:23:12the ways of death. He says be careful so that what
- 1:23:15you call light be not darkness. You can look at something and
- 1:23:18call it light for years only to find out that it were darkness
- 1:23:21all the while. Because of that limitation in
- 1:23:25the human nature, it's important to inquire from God.
- 1:23:30Should I pursue That doesn't mean to everything.
- 1:23:34I didn't have to ask God what to wear this morning.
- 1:23:36No, He's giving me intelligence. Are we together or should we be
- 1:23:41in Canada or go somewhere else? You don't just choose.
- 1:23:44That's too much of A risk. That's too much pride.
- 1:23:49I. Can tell you this if we take
- 1:23:51the. Time to maximize the prayer of
- 1:23:54inquiry. You see, your actions will be
- 1:23:57fewer, but you will win almost all the time.
- 1:24:01Did you know that part of our being busy is because there is a
- 1:24:04major portion of our activities that are not consistent with
- 1:24:08God's design for us? So we keep experimenting.
- 1:24:11Then we stumble across His wheel.
- 1:24:12Then we experiment again. Then we stumble across His
- 1:24:15wheel. But let's see what Ephesians
- 1:24:17chapter 5 tells us. It says let us walk
- 1:24:19circumspectly, as wise and not as unwise.
- 1:24:24Are we learning now redeeming the time?
- 1:24:26It says because the days are evil and one of the ways you
- 1:24:29redeem time is to know the the will of God concerning every
- 1:24:32matter so that you don't experiment the greatest way to.
- 1:24:37Redeem time is to minimize. Experimentation with your
- 1:24:40destiny. Imagine experimenting five
- 1:24:42years. Then you find out you are wrong.
- 1:24:44Then you start again. Then you do another two years.
- 1:24:46Then you find out you are wrong. Then you try three months.
- 1:24:49Then you 5-5 months. At the end of it, you've
- 1:24:51experimented 25 years of your life.
- 1:24:53Then you discover the truth by yielding for one month.
- 1:24:59Unfortunately, the unit of destiny.
- 1:25:01Is time. Whatever takes a portion of your
- 1:25:04time has taken a portion of your life.
- 1:25:07It's important to inquire of the Lord.
- 1:25:10When you inquire of the Lord, your journey will be slower, but
- 1:25:13you will not have to reverse again.
- 1:25:15When you move, you move. I'll tell you this.
- 1:25:19When you walk with God. You can.
- 1:25:21You can walk on your own for kilometers in destiny, but the
- 1:25:26moment God directs you, you must turn back and come to the point
- 1:25:29of His will. Then you go the right direction.
- 1:25:32If He wants to show you messy, He will take where you are
- 1:25:35supposed to go and put it there so that you now move that
- 1:25:37direction. That's what restoration is
- 1:25:39called, however. For a mature.
- 1:25:43Believer Believer who is understanding and learning the
- 1:25:45ways of God. Believers are not given the
- 1:25:48liberty to experiment their lives carelessly.
- 1:25:50Your life is too delicate for experimentation.
- 1:25:53Your mind is powerful but not sufficient to bring you victory
- 1:25:57on assisted. Know this and settle it for a
- 1:26:00fact is someone learning trust in the Lord with all your heart.
- 1:26:04Proverbs 35 it says lean not onto your own understanding.
- 1:26:08It says in all your ways acknowledge him, acknowledge
- 1:26:11him, acknowledge him and as a result he shall direct your
- 1:26:15path. Verse 7 says be not wise in your
- 1:26:18own understanding. He says fear the Lord and depart
- 1:26:21from evil. This.
- 1:26:24Is very powerful. Trust in the Lord.
- 1:26:27With all. Your heart.
- 1:26:31And lean not on. Your own understanding in all
- 1:26:38your ways acknowledging and he. Shall direct.
- 1:26:46And he shall one more time trust in the Lord with all your heart,
- 1:26:55and Leonardo, your own understanding, in all your ways.
- 1:27:04Acknowledge him, and he shall direct.
- 1:27:10And he shall direct. There are three signs in your
- 1:27:19life, 3 pointers that you need inquiry from God.
- 1:27:23Number one is confusion. Confusion #2.
- 1:27:30Consistent struggles in an area. Please write this and learn.
- 1:27:35Every time you are perpetually confused as to a decision or an
- 1:27:40action to take, you need to pray the prayer of inquiry #2
- 1:27:45whenever you start pushing and pushing and pushing and things
- 1:27:49are unnecessarily and unreasonably hard, you need to
- 1:27:54inquire of the Lord. Sometimes inquiring of the Lord
- 1:28:00will let you know that. There is warfare there to fight.
- 1:28:03Is someone learning now? Praise the name of the Lord.
- 1:28:07One of the blessings that follow the voice of God is is is.
- 1:28:13When you push and push and. Push and push and push.
- 1:28:17Calm down and go back and say God.
- 1:28:20Sometimes it's because you are executing the wrong strategy
- 1:28:25even though it's the right direction.
- 1:28:28Now imagine someone who. Wants to move forward.
- 1:28:31And you put your gear on reverse.
- 1:28:33Your intention is right, but the strategy you are using is wrong.
- 1:28:37As soon as you match the throttle, where are you going?
- 1:28:41And then you say no, no. I'm sure I know that.
- 1:28:43This guy has capacity to move forward.
- 1:28:45You are right. Just because you are looking for
- 1:28:47what does not mean you will go forward.
- 1:28:49Your strategy must align with what you are seeing.
- 1:28:52I can be looking forward and my strategy says go back.
- 1:28:56Life will respect the strategy more than the vision.
- 1:28:59Did you hear what I said? Your vision and your strategy
- 1:29:02must align for you to go the same direction.
- 1:29:05There are many of us. Your vision says progress, but
- 1:29:08your strategy says go back. There are many of you.
- 1:29:11Your vision says go up, but the strategy says stay down.
- 1:29:16The strategy must be In Sync with the vision.
- 1:29:19And this is where the power of the prayer of inquiry comes.
- 1:29:23Who is learning? I want to do business so that I
- 1:29:27will build a great, you know, financial life and bless people,
- 1:29:30wonderful vision. What is a strategy?
- 1:29:33You don't have financial intelligence and you keep making
- 1:29:35mistakes, investment mistakes. You see that?
- 1:29:38So you're putting your, your strategy is on reverse gear even
- 1:29:42though your intention is sincere.
- 1:29:44Ladies and gentlemen, it takes more than sincerity to make
- 1:29:46progress. There are times you just have to
- 1:29:49inquire. And there are many ways God
- 1:29:51answers you. One, He can answer you by giving
- 1:29:54you a prophetic revelation from scripture #2 God.
- 1:29:59Can answer you. By quickening a divine solution
- 1:30:02to your spirit #3 He can refer you to people who have gained
- 1:30:07mastery in finding direction. Someone learning?
- 1:30:16See why it's good to come to church?
- 1:30:20There are things you cannot learn in a library.
- 1:30:23Even though there are books there, There are things you
- 1:30:26cannot learn. In a lecture hall.
- 1:30:28Even though you stand before intelligent people because this
- 1:30:32one is a business of the spirit. Hallelujah.
- 1:30:36All right, very quickly, the prayer of inquiry.
- 1:30:40We're at number. Let's do 4, the second, the 4th
- 1:30:45prayer model ready. Warfare and intercessory prayers
- 1:30:50are like this. Warfare and intercessory
- 1:30:54prayers. By the way, I'm sure you've
- 1:30:57heard the announcement that from March.
- 1:31:00Let me say now as a reminder, from March, April, and May the
- 1:31:05next three months, all of the third Sundays in Koinonia, the
- 1:31:10Lord gave me an instruction. So we're dedicating all of the
- 1:31:12third Sundays, March, April, and May media, I'm not sure you have
- 1:31:17the design. If you have it, you can put it
- 1:31:19on display for us. Else we'll just wait.
- 1:31:22But March, April, and May, the 3rd Sundays of March, April, and
- 1:31:26May, we'll be dedicating it in the house.
- 1:31:28It will be a time of worship and warfare and I'm going to be
- 1:31:33defining. For you what?
- 1:31:35Warfare means praise the name of the Lord.
- 1:31:38All right, but back to our discussion.
- 1:31:40Ezekiel chapter 22 and verse 30, the warfare and intercessory
- 1:31:45prayers. This is very important.
- 1:31:48And I sought for a man among them that should stand, should
- 1:31:53make up the hedge and stand in the gap before me for the land
- 1:31:58that I should not destroy it. But I found none.
- 1:32:02May God find men in the name of Jesus.
- 1:32:05May God find men in Canada. May God find men in North
- 1:32:09America. May God find men in Abuja, in
- 1:32:12Europe, in Asia, in Africa sometime available like you mean
- 1:32:18it's I'm. Available.
- 1:32:20I sought for a man but not finding any.
- 1:32:23You see that there are times that the devil seems to have an
- 1:32:27upper hand over men, over lives, communities, territories, and
- 1:32:31sometimes Satan's victory in a territory may seem to conflict
- 1:32:37the statement it is finished and conflict.
- 1:32:40The reality of God's authority is because there have been a
- 1:32:44bankruptcy of men and women who understand how to enforce the
- 1:32:48verdict, the verdict of God's Word.
- 1:32:52Let me define for you what warfare is for the believer.
- 1:32:56It's important we. Define what warfare.
- 1:32:59Is warfare, is not fighting the devil?
- 1:33:03No, that's not your assignment. Did you hear what I said?
- 1:33:08Warfare. Is not fighting the devil in
- 1:33:11fact, warfare? Is not fighting demonic spirits?
- 1:33:14No, no, that's a wrong understanding of warfare.
- 1:33:18According to scripture, warfare has to do with using the word of
- 1:33:23God and every spiritual resource that has been made available to
- 1:33:28the believer in Christ to enforce over lives over
- 1:33:32territories. Are we together and to ward off
- 1:33:35the asenals of hell inexperience.
- 1:33:37Don't worry, I'll take it is I just want it for you.
- 1:33:39I want you to understand, then I'll give you what to write
- 1:33:43taking. Advantage of the Word of God.
- 1:33:46Alongside all the spiritual resources as an arsenal that
- 1:33:50have been made available to the believer in Christ to enforce
- 1:33:53over your life and enforce over any situation the victory that
- 1:33:59is finished in Christ. Did you get that?
- 1:34:01So warfare is about using the resources of heaven alongside
- 1:34:05spiritual intelligence, engaging the ministry of angels, the
- 1:34:09Word, the blood, and every spiritual resource that has been
- 1:34:12made available to the believer to enforce in your life to make
- 1:34:16good at present what has been finished in Christ.
- 1:34:21This mental shift will. Matter whether you.
- 1:34:23Come out victorious or not. So with all due respect, and I
- 1:34:27say that with every sense of love, responsibility, there are
- 1:34:32many people whose approach to warfare is why they will never
- 1:34:35see victory manifest because the idea is about fighting Satan to
- 1:34:40see if you will win. You see that that's a wrong.
- 1:34:43That's not a scriptural strategy.
- 1:34:45So today you feel I fought and that I won, but let's see what
- 1:34:48happens next week. No, the Bible says thanks be to
- 1:34:51God, which causes us always, not sometimes always to triumph.
- 1:34:55Are we together? Those who are involved in
- 1:34:58warfare and intercession, this mind shift can mean whether
- 1:35:01you'll be victorious or not. I don't have to fight the devil
- 1:35:05to win. No, it is my assignment to take
- 1:35:07the victory. Someone please learn the victory
- 1:35:10that is finished in Christ. Are we together?
- 1:35:13Why do I need to enforce it? Because there is what we call
- 1:35:17the legal side of redemption, like EW Kenyon will teach, and
- 1:35:21the vital side of redemption. The legal side of redemption
- 1:35:24talks about prophetic realities as finished in Christ, but the
- 1:35:29vital side talks about their their experiential manifestation
- 1:35:35and that will require faith. It says forever, O Lord, your
- 1:35:38word is settled where it didn't say in your life in heaven.
- 1:35:43So it takes faith and the operation of the mysteries of
- 1:35:46the Kingdom to make that victory that's been settled in Christ to
- 1:35:50become real in your life. How many of you know that even
- 1:35:52if you die of sickness today, it's already true that by his
- 1:35:56stripes you are healed, but it's not yet a reality in your body.
- 1:35:59So what do you do? You take advantage of that
- 1:36:02knowledge alongside the mysteries of the Kingdom
- 1:36:05connected to health and healing and enforcing.
- 1:36:08The process of enforcing is what we call warfare.
- 1:36:12Did you get that I need? To say that so that when we.
- 1:36:17Talk about warfare, prayer, and we talk about putting on the
- 1:36:20whole armour of God. You know, these these are
- 1:36:23metaphors and similes that are used in Scripture just to help
- 1:36:26you know how to engage the mysteries of the Kingdom.
- 1:36:29Spiritual realities that are finished in Christ never
- 1:36:32manifest in the flesh until we engage the resources of heaven,
- 1:36:37the mysteries of the Kingdom, and then we turn them into
- 1:36:41experiential realities. I was teaching the workers
- 1:36:45yesterday. We call it the law of
- 1:36:46conversion. How the world becomes flesh.
- 1:36:49How healing that is finished in Christ becomes evident in the
- 1:36:53life of a man. How prosperity that's finished
- 1:36:55in Christ becomes evident in the life of a man.
- 1:36:58Are we together? How peace that's been finished
- 1:37:00in Christ becomes evident in the life of a man.
- 1:37:03Someone say warfare. Now you understand what I mean
- 1:37:06when we talk about warfare and intercessory prayers.
- 1:37:11But this is powerful because I can tell you Satan is a stubborn
- 1:37:15spirit. You may have heard me say that
- 1:37:18if there's one thing I know about Satan, and the Bible
- 1:37:20attests to that, is that he says stubborn spirit.
- 1:37:23He will not let you go just because the Word says to let you
- 1:37:26go. He says, say unto God, read the
- 1:37:29scripture with me. Psalm 66 and verse 3 Media,
- 1:37:32please put it up for us and then let's shout it as loud as we
- 1:37:35can. When you see it projected, ready
- 1:37:37one to read. Not through the greatness of
- 1:37:50your desire. It takes power, Say power.
- 1:37:53It really does take power. It takes power.
- 1:37:57It takes power. Satan, he says.
- 1:37:59Stubborn spirit, He will not leave your child just because
- 1:38:02you say go. No, he will not leave your home
- 1:38:04just because you said go. The Bible says he left Jesus for
- 1:38:07a season. Is it not in your Bible?
- 1:38:09Jesus he will. Always try to come back again.
- 1:38:16The assignment. Of warfare.
- 1:38:19Is to use. The.
- 1:38:21Resources of heaven and all that has been finished in.
- 1:38:25Christ the. Knowledge, the revelation of his
- 1:38:27finished work and then to enforce that reality in your
- 1:38:31life. Are we together?
- 1:38:36And tonight I pray for you in Jesus name, where the speakings
- 1:38:41of God versus your result have been in conflict.
- 1:38:44Tonight, by the power of the Holy Spirit, there will be one
- 1:38:49will have to displace the other. And I can tell you without
- 1:38:52prophesying, the word of God will prevail.
- 1:38:55Did you ever hear that word prevailed?
- 1:38:57It says so mightily grew the word of God.
- 1:38:59I need what the word prevailed. Means there was already.
- 1:39:03An order before its arrival so mightily grew the word of God.
- 1:39:08I need over sickness, prevailed over poverty, prevailed over
- 1:39:13fear, prevailed over delay, prevailed over stagnation, say
- 1:39:20in the. Name of Jesus.
- 1:39:23Shouted. This is not all of.
- 1:39:24You in the name of Jesus. The Word of God will prevail
- 1:39:30over my mind, over my health, over my finances, in the name of
- 1:39:36Jesus. Listen, you need to know.
- 1:39:42How to intercede? Let me show you one scripture,
- 1:39:46Philippians chapter 1 and verse 19.
- 1:39:48This is a profound scripture. It says, and I know that this
- 1:39:51shall turn for my salvation through your prayer, not my
- 1:39:57prayer. There are times that my own
- 1:39:59prayer may not seem to do the job.
- 1:40:01I will need your prayer. This is the power of
- 1:40:04intercession. And I know I am aware that there
- 1:40:07is a provision to outsource help where my prayer, for whatever
- 1:40:10reason seems to not be able to deliver the result I can
- 1:40:14leverage on your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Christ
- 1:40:19Jesus. I know there are times that is.
- 1:40:24Not your prayer, that. Brings you salvation.
- 1:40:26Sometimes you are too weak to pray.
- 1:40:28Sometimes you are too broken to pray.
- 1:40:30Sometimes you are too beaten to pray.
- 1:40:32Sometimes you may be too human to pray.
- 1:40:35Quite honestly, your strength can deplete.
- 1:40:38At such times, you can leverage on the advantage of
- 1:40:41intercession. It's important that is one of
- 1:40:45the blessings of community. How many of you know that as
- 1:40:49powerful as Peter was or is or where was the Bible never said
- 1:40:54he prayed in prison. I'm sure the guy was offended.
- 1:40:57I'm sure the guy was angry. Remember, that was not his first
- 1:41:00time of being offended. We know his character already
- 1:41:02even before Jesus died. So we suspect that his hands
- 1:41:06were like this under feet and he was in, well, it doesn't matter.
- 1:41:09I will meet you and all of that. But the church was praying.
- 1:41:12The Bible says what prayer was made by the church unto God for
- 1:41:16Peter and an Angel came. There are times you need to pray
- 1:41:23this is. Why it's important to build your
- 1:41:25discernment? Because sometimes God can wake
- 1:41:28you out of nowhere and put a burden upon you.
- 1:41:30You see that now? Yeah, he will put a burden to
- 1:41:34pray for someone. He may just give you the name or
- 1:41:37it may be someone you know. Every time God puts the burden
- 1:41:40for prayer, it is an act of trust.
- 1:41:45He's. Aware on trust that your level
- 1:41:47of. Spiritual vitality will be able
- 1:41:49to help you bridge quickly. If you delay, you may destroy
- 1:41:53that person's destiny. Hallelujah when God places that.
- 1:41:58Burden to pray. Please pray.
- 1:42:01Please pray. Sometimes God can say.
- 1:42:04Pray for Joshua Salman, pray for kaunonia get up and pray trust
- 1:42:08God for grace to pray shout I will pray say I receive grace to
- 1:42:13pray the warfare and. Intercessory dimension let me.
- 1:42:18Tell you this, if there's anything I know about
- 1:42:20intercession, it must become a lifestyle.
- 1:42:23Now. There are times God gives you
- 1:42:25seasonal intercessory projects meaning because of something
- 1:42:30He's doing in the life of an individual.
- 1:42:32And this is usually when seasons are being birthed.
- 1:42:35When prophetic seasons are being birthed, you will need an
- 1:42:39unusual an unusual atmosphere of prayer.
- 1:42:44As soon as Zion travels, she shall put forth the song.
- 1:42:49So when there is about to be a birthing of a prophetic season,
- 1:42:53sometimes your prayer alone cannot push through.
- 1:42:56God will have to raise people for you.
- 1:42:58Is why it's important to be connected to serious believers
- 1:43:01so that when these seasons come, it's very easy to have a prayer
- 1:43:05squad that can stand in for you. The greatest gift you can give a
- 1:43:09man is to a man of God especially it's not seeds and
- 1:43:13offerings, it's to build a strong, vibrant prophetic
- 1:43:17intercessory team. That's how that man will last.
- 1:43:21I prefer prayer. Warriors than.
- 1:43:23Financial partners, I can tell you this without patronizing
- 1:43:27with words if I have sufficient. Prayer.
- 1:43:30Warriors, then I know things will be fine.
- 1:43:33Sometimes we focus as men of God on those who can give money
- 1:43:36directly, and there's nothing wrong with that.
- 1:43:38I'm not being sarcastic when Satan.
- 1:43:42Wants to attack a church. Let me tell you 3 areas he goes
- 1:43:45to #1 the worship ministry. He will use offense, he will use
- 1:43:51canality, he will use hatred, he will use on seriousness #2 he
- 1:43:55goes to the prayer department, he will use pride, he will use
- 1:43:59offense, competitive jealousy. You see that?
- 1:44:02And then when he's done with all those things, he now goes to the
- 1:44:06family life of the man of God and now begins to fight, causing
- 1:44:10quarrel, quarrel that has no business coming.
- 1:44:13Once he's done, the church is already gone.
- 1:44:15How many of you know that Samsung did not have to break
- 1:44:19every block to throw the temple down?
- 1:44:21He only held two pillars and pushed it and the entire temple
- 1:44:25collapse. Not everything brings down
- 1:44:27everything in the building. There are pillars that if you
- 1:44:30touch that means any building that needs to stand.
- 1:44:33Protect your pillars. The zinc can tear off.
- 1:44:37You can put. Another one.
- 1:44:38The roof can tear off. You can put another one.
- 1:44:41The POP can peel. You can put another one.
- 1:44:43The pains can be, you know, you can put another one.
- 1:44:46But guard your pillars. This is a message.
- 1:44:50Guard your pillars. Come on.
- 1:44:52Maybe you should write that. Guard your pillars, man of God.
- 1:44:57Guard your pillars every. Ministry is important but you
- 1:45:01have to be careful. The prayer pillar.
- 1:45:03Guard it. Your worship pillar.
- 1:45:06Got it. Brandi Gabalantus.
- 1:45:15This is a message for every father.
- 1:45:16In every home. There are pillars to God.
- 1:45:19Your pillar. Your prayer altar is your
- 1:45:21pillar. Your time of worship, the
- 1:45:23evening sacrifice God, your pillars.
- 1:45:28Don't. Major or minors or minor or.
- 1:45:30Majors No. When Samson wanted to bring, Can
- 1:45:34you imagine? The Bible says he killed more
- 1:45:37people at his death, meaning there were more than 3000 people
- 1:45:40at least in that auditorium because one time he used the
- 1:45:43jawbone of a donkey and he brought down 3000 Philistines,
- 1:45:47meaning there were more people there.
- 1:45:49And Samson said I know how destiny is crumble.
- 1:45:53I was a victim of it. I want to crumble this right now
- 1:45:56for the sake of Jesus Christ, for the sake of God.
- 1:45:59They have mocked the God of heaven.
- 1:46:01They brought me blinded, They brought me whatever, but with
- 1:46:04the last strength I have. Take me to the pillars and let
- 1:46:10me tell you. This.
- 1:46:11By the way. It was a foolish.
- 1:46:14Architecture to put your pillars in front of everybody?
- 1:46:19No, no. How do you put the pillars?
- 1:46:25That support the whole building, visible to everybody.
- 1:46:28There are things you hide because that's where your secret
- 1:46:31is. Social media.
- 1:46:34Generation. Expose every other thing, but
- 1:46:37not your pillars. You can put your pillars and
- 1:46:40receive an attack for nothing. Listen to what I'm telling you.
- 1:46:45Protect your pillars. We live in a world where we want
- 1:46:48everything about our lives. When you are depressed,
- 1:46:51everybody knows whatever happens.
- 1:46:54Let me tell you, I don't mean I'm speaking to my people first,
- 1:46:57then the body of Christ. Choose the parts you want to
- 1:46:59learn and leave the remaining. But I can tell you this, if you
- 1:47:02want to win in life, you don't put the pillars.
- 1:47:06If that building depends on only two pillars, why put it in front
- 1:47:10of everybody? Which architect designed that
- 1:47:13building? And Samson said I don't need to
- 1:47:16go everywhere. Leave the mockers, just take me
- 1:47:19to the pillars, the Bible says as he rested his hand on the
- 1:47:23killers. You see, when Satan wants to
- 1:47:26attack a man, he does not have the time to attack everything.
- 1:47:30His first assignment is to investigate the killers.
- 1:47:34What is making? This ministry strong.
- 1:47:37What is making this family strong?
- 1:47:40Why are the children excelling in school?
- 1:47:42There must be a secret. The pillar.
- 1:47:50Sir, the. Pillars.
- 1:47:53The pillars, If you if you get this as a revelation, it will
- 1:47:56change your life forever. The pillars there are things.
- 1:48:01That are between. You and God, you allow the
- 1:48:05spirit of the age. Sometimes Satan motivate you to
- 1:48:08expose too many things. Listen, the difference between
- 1:48:13Joseph and Mary is that Joseph did not know what to keep.
- 1:48:17He said everything that was happening to him.
- 1:48:19When the Father gave him a quote, he said it.
- 1:48:22Whenever we had a dream, he said it.
- 1:48:25But the Bible says Mary kept these things to herself.
- 1:48:28There are things you keep until the due season.
- 1:48:37This is a prophetic advice. Don't be under pressure to say
- 1:48:42everything God is doing. When it manifests, people will
- 1:48:45know. Listen, listen, listen not to
- 1:48:50play with your minds. Is it not an unwise woman who
- 1:48:53just takes in and just know? And then she's everywhere
- 1:48:56telling everybody no, you can't hide pregnancy With time, let it
- 1:49:01grow, People will know. The Bible says a word spoken in
- 1:49:05due season. I'm telling you, some of you,
- 1:49:07the attacks in your life should not have happened.
- 1:49:10It was because your mouth betrayed your destiny, Joseph.
- 1:49:15Said everything. The Bible said they hated him
- 1:49:18the more because of his dreams. Silence is not.
- 1:49:22Fear is wisdom. There is a grace.
- 1:49:26That helps men to keep. Quiet.
- 1:49:28That was why Jesus kept quiet when he was before Pontius
- 1:49:30Pilate. He had what to say, but he kept
- 1:49:33quiet. Sometimes the way.
- 1:49:36We Win is in silence. The way we win is in.
- 1:49:39Silence. Who has learned something?
- 1:49:43Intercession or get the message? Guard your.
- 1:49:47Pillars guard your pillars. The whole building depends on
- 1:49:52them. Guard your pillars.
- 1:49:55It's not everything that destroys the human body.
- 1:49:59Medical doctors talk to me. It's not.
- 1:50:02I mean, if I have an injury right now on my hand, maybe
- 1:50:06something caught me, a razor blade.
- 1:50:07That's not the best, but it's not enough to kill me.
- 1:50:10Am I right on that? No matter how deep, I can
- 1:50:13receive a stitch and then it's gone.
- 1:50:15But there are some things. If you have a cardiac arrest,
- 1:50:18it's only God who will help you. You will die immediately, am I
- 1:50:21right? If somebody blows up your
- 1:50:23brains, you will die immediately.
- 1:50:24There are people who have their legs amputated, but they're
- 1:50:27still alive. There are people who have their
- 1:50:29hands amputated, but they're still alive.
- 1:50:31But there is. Every organ is important, but
- 1:50:34not equally important with respect to keeping you alive.
- 1:50:37You have to study your destiny. Samson Delilah can touch every
- 1:50:43other thing, but not your hair is a pillar because your
- 1:50:47strength is hidden. There is someone learning now.
- 1:50:54Jesus, you want to fulfill your. Assignment your prayer life.
- 1:50:59Who is learning now? I'd like you to pray.
- 1:51:03One prayer and say. Lord, the grace to God my
- 1:51:05pillars. God my pillars.
- 1:51:09God my pillars, God my pillars through the right use of words.
- 1:51:15God my pillars through discernment.
- 1:51:18God my pillars through the relationships and the Chariots
- 1:51:21that I join. God my pillars.
- 1:51:23Someone is praying. Sabrakata pekka parakka
- 1:51:26prescatabelekata. I obtain grace to God, my
- 1:51:30pillars. Samanda sabrakata belleka
- 1:51:33parasita. God my pillars.
- 1:51:37In the name of Jesus. In the name of Jesus, please be
- 1:51:42seated. My goodness, my goodness, my
- 1:51:44goodness, my goodness, Where has God taken us with this series?
- 1:51:48Let me give you #5 quickly the prayer of Thanksgiving.
- 1:51:52Colossians 4 and verse. 2 The Prayer of.
- 1:51:54Thanksgiving sometimes. It really takes time.
- 1:51:59It really, really takes time to understand the ways of the
- 1:52:02Spirit. You have to take it slowly.
- 1:52:05Continue in prayer, he says, and watch in the same with
- 1:52:09Thanksgiving. Continue in prayer and in the
- 1:52:12same manner of prayer. Watch with Thanksgiving.
- 1:52:16Philippians 4 and verse 6 the anxious for nothing but in
- 1:52:20everything by prayer and supplication with Thanksgiving.
- 1:52:25When Jesus wanted to multiply 5 loaf and two fish, the Bible
- 1:52:28says he lifted it and he gave thanks.
- 1:52:30You know how the prayer of Thanksgiving is, is an
- 1:52:32expression of faith, meaning everything you are trusting God
- 1:52:36to do, you give thanks to it. Father, I thank you because
- 1:52:39today is a blessed day. You get the idea.
- 1:52:41I thank you in the name of Jesus because I know that it is well
- 1:52:44with me. So you thank Him in advance.
- 1:52:47As you mention whatever it is, you can combine prayer point a
- 1:52:51prayer model 5 and prayer model 2, the faith filled confession.
- 1:52:54Now add Thanksgiving to it. Thanksgiving multiplies
- 1:52:58everything. Everything now.
- 1:53:02Very. Quickly why?
- 1:53:04Prayers fail to produce answers. Let's look at this.
- 1:53:07We have to look at this. Why prayers fail to produce
- 1:53:11answers? There are two reasons, according
- 1:53:18to scripture, at least in my study of prayer and learning
- 1:53:23scripture. Why?
- 1:53:25Prayers. Fail to produce answers.
- 1:53:27In fact, the Bible does tell us, according to James for instance
- 1:53:30for anniversary, that our prayers can fail to produce
- 1:53:35answers. Prayer fails to produce answer.
- 1:53:37He say you can ask and yet strangely not receive.
- 1:53:41The first reason very quickly why prayers fail to produce
- 1:53:45answers is the conflict between the will of God and your
- 1:53:49desires. The conflict between the will of
- 1:53:53God and your desires. Please write it down.
- 1:53:56The first reason according to Scripture, why prayers can fail
- 1:54:00to produce answers is the conflict between the will of God
- 1:54:05and our desires. Now what makes prayers effectual
- 1:54:10is the degree to which the will of God is captured in that
- 1:54:14prayer. Please listen what the Bible
- 1:54:16says the heartfelt effectual prayer of the righteous, the
- 1:54:20What heartfelt talks of zeal, talks of your heart and your
- 1:54:23emotions invested in the prayer, your attitude.
- 1:54:26But when the Bible talks of effectual prayer, please listen.
- 1:54:30What makes prayer effectual is the degree to which the will of
- 1:54:34God is captured in your desires or in the prayer are we together
- 1:54:40praise the name of the Lord to the degree to which there.
- 1:54:44Is a deviation. Between your desires and the
- 1:54:46will of God, it will fail to secure answers from heaven.
- 1:54:50Now let me tell you something, and it's an honest admission.
- 1:54:54God may. Not answer your prayers.
- 1:54:57But your prayers can be answered.
- 1:55:01Don't assume you understand what I just said.
- 1:55:08There are many answers that will arrive to you, but they did not
- 1:55:11come by God. There are many other routes to
- 1:55:14force your answers to arrive the human will.
- 1:55:18Corruption can make answers arrive to you, but it did not
- 1:55:21come by God. Are we together?
- 1:55:23So just because answers arrive, one of the ways you know an
- 1:55:27answer came from God is because it must produce the glory of God
- 1:55:30in your life. If an answer comes to you and it
- 1:55:33fails to produce the glory of God in your life, it did not
- 1:55:37carry the signature of God. Amazing.
- 1:55:41That is what we call the latent power of the human will.
- 1:55:44You can force answers to arrive and it is not by God.
- 1:55:48The Bible talks about the people that God would give a reprobate
- 1:55:51mind to do as they please. Did you ever read that in your
- 1:55:55scripture? So you will see things happening
- 1:55:57in their life, and yet because they are in a perpetual state of
- 1:56:01rebellion, they have chosen as an act of their will that it
- 1:56:06does not matter whether this is the will of God or not.
- 1:56:08God will leave them, but you will never see the glory of God
- 1:56:11produce them. The.
- 1:56:44It's a realm of your. Glory.
- 1:56:48It's a realm of your grace I conceal.
- 1:56:53Mighty. Power moving in this place,
- 1:56:59we're in the presence of angels with God's glory on their wings
- 1:57:07and like the voice of many waters.
- 1:57:45Did you ever read a scripture like?
- 1:57:47Let the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be
- 1:57:53acceptable. Why does it have to be
- 1:57:55acceptable? After all, they are my.
- 1:57:59Words. They are my.
- 1:58:00Contemplations, the psalmist is a call for divine alignment.
- 1:58:06Let the words of my mouth and then the meditations of my
- 1:58:10heart. It says, let it be acceptable
- 1:58:12meaning, let it be In Sync, in alignment with your divine will.
- 1:58:17Let me tell you this. The degree to which the glory of
- 1:58:20God is birthed and revealed in the life of a believer is the
- 1:58:24degree to which you come into divine alignment with his will
- 1:58:27for you. Now, the will of God is not the
- 1:58:30only option you have. You have your will.
- 1:58:32You can have your life. Here's a generation that says is
- 1:58:35my life. You are right, you are really
- 1:58:38right is your life because God gave you a will.
- 1:58:41But one thing you cannot force to happen is to use your life
- 1:58:45and your strategies and then birth the glory of God.
- 1:58:48If the glory of God is to be birthed and to be revealed.
- 1:58:52The level of excellence and dexterity that is derived from
- 1:58:55the life of even a Christian is dependent to the degree to which
- 1:59:00you walk in keeping with that divine script.
- 1:59:03No, I come in the volume of the book, as it is written of me
- 1:59:06already, to do your will. I can.
- 1:59:10Choose as an act of my will. That this is how I want to run
- 1:59:14my life? How many of you know that even
- 1:59:16though God has called me into this Apostolic and prophetic
- 1:59:19ministry, I can make up my mind today as an act of my will?
- 1:59:22That I'm tired and God will come with His mercy.
- 1:59:26He will use all the instruments of mercy to bring me back as a
- 1:59:29Father. But if He verifies that I'm
- 1:59:31doing it consciously, knowing the consequence, what I have
- 1:59:35chosen, He will respect it. From that time, this dimension
- 1:59:39of glory that follows obedience will cease.
- 1:59:42But I will run my life. You see that?
- 1:59:45Now, so there are many. People running their lives.
- 1:59:49And because you're executing projects, it does not mean
- 1:59:52they're working In Sync with divine alignment.
- 1:59:55Who understands me? Yes, the first reason.
- 1:59:59Why? Pray as God does not seem to
- 2:00:03bring certain answers the way we want.
- 2:00:06Are we together is because there is a conflict between His will
- 2:00:11for us and our desires. The Bible says ye ask and ye
- 2:00:16have not because that it is to fulfill your loss and because
- 2:00:21you are God's child. He has the advantage.
- 2:00:23You see if you are outside of that, he will leave you to
- 2:00:26yourself even though he's a God of all flesh, but because this
- 2:00:28is a family affair. He knows the thoughts that he
- 2:00:31has towards you and their thoughts of peace and not of
- 2:00:34evil to bring you a future, an unexpected end.
- 2:00:38But you can choose as an act of your will that Lord, I'm not
- 2:00:41interested in your blueprint for my life.
- 2:00:43He will keep sending messy and instruments of messy to help you
- 2:00:47understand that he he's for your good but if you refuse he will
- 2:00:51leave you and he said dangerous thing when God leaves you to
- 2:00:54yourself. The Prodigal Song the Bible does
- 2:01:00not record. Its soul.
- 2:01:02But I believe the first day he spoke to his father was not the
- 2:01:04first day the father gave him everything.
- 2:01:07I'm sure he kept coming. Listen, I'm of age.
- 2:01:09I need to leave your house. I'm sure the father would have
- 2:01:12sat with him because the Bible shows us that he was a good
- 2:01:15father and said, look, my son, Are you sure you want to do
- 2:01:18this? It's a risk leaving me.
- 2:01:19Your safety is within the house. I can give you everything.
- 2:01:22I said no. And one day the father said it's
- 2:01:25all right, it's consistent. I have to respect your will take
- 2:01:29from the day he left the house. What happened?
- 2:01:32He started going down. You see his destiny now.
- 2:01:35Question Was his desire granted? Yes.
- 2:01:39Was that his father's this. Was it his father's desire to
- 2:01:42grant that wish? No.
- 2:01:44But because he had to respect his will and the boy depleted.
- 2:01:48From that day, glory was. Not revealed in his life again
- 2:01:51until he was realigned back for someone.
- 2:01:54God is speaking to you. The reason why it looks like
- 2:01:57your life is perpetually under a decline is that you need to go
- 2:02:01back and say, Lord, where did I miss it?
- 2:02:03Where did I push you as the pilot of my destiny?
- 2:02:07And I allow pride mixed with ignorance to make me hold that
- 2:02:10aircraft. And I've been nose diving since
- 2:02:12then. The good thing about God is that
- 2:02:15he's not only just, He's merciful, and that his messy
- 2:02:20triumphs over judgment. Let us pray see that these are
- 2:02:34the rules of. Engagement.
- 2:02:37Everyone that asketh receiveth. However, the Bible says this is
- 2:02:40the confidence we have in Him that when we ask anything.
- 2:02:44So every time you see the Bible seem to give you an open check,
- 2:02:48it's not for you to feel that open check with your losts and
- 2:02:51stamp it in the name of Jesus and have an answer.
- 2:02:54No, that would be idolatry. This is the confidence we have,
- 2:03:00John first, John. 514 That when we ask anything according to his
- 2:03:06will, that's it there according to his will He here at us verse
- 2:03:1015 and if we know that he here at us whatsoever we ask, we know
- 2:03:15that we have the petitions we have desired.
- 2:03:18So when the Bible says things like you find in Mark 11/24 what
- 2:03:22things so ever he desire, he's speaking to a people who he was
- 2:03:25training whatsoever he desire that is according to my will
- 2:03:30when he pray, believe, remember I'm teaching them how to pray
- 2:03:34before he spoke about give us your daily bread, he said thy
- 2:03:37will be done. It's always about his will.
- 2:03:41This right there is the gospel of the Kingdom.
- 2:03:43When you bring in the gospel of the Kingdom, Jesus is no longer
- 2:03:46Savior, dear. He is king.
- 2:03:48He has a will, but he's not a wicked king.
- 2:03:50His will is not all about himself.
- 2:03:52He's for the good of his people. Hallelujah, that's the reason
- 2:04:04why. The journey is called Follow Me.
- 2:04:07It's a journey of faith. It is based on trust.
- 2:04:11Even when you do not know where he's taking you to, you trust
- 2:04:14that the one leading you is too faithful and he will not fail
- 2:04:17you. Oh God.
- 2:04:20You. Are my God and.
- 2:04:24I will ever. Praise you.
- 2:04:28Listen, oh God, You are my God and I will ever trust you.
- 2:04:40I will seek you. In the morning, I have learned
- 2:04:47to walk in your ways step. By step.
- 2:04:53You lead me and I will follow you all of my days step.
- 2:05:02By step you lead. Me and I will follow.
- 2:05:07You let me tell you how you know you have.
- 2:05:13Attained maturity in the Spirit, when you can say, Father, if it
- 2:05:18be Thy will, let this Corp pass of me, but nevertheless not my
- 2:05:25will, but Your will, the faith. Life does not take away your
- 2:05:31brain. You have desires.
- 2:05:34You see many other devices in a man's hearts, the Bible says.
- 2:05:39However, for the yielded vessel, the counsel of the Lord, that
- 2:05:44alone shall stand. It's all right to make your
- 2:05:47plans. It's all right to have your
- 2:05:49goals. It's all right to have your
- 2:05:51desires. It's all right to have.
- 2:05:54Whatever it is that you want. It's OK provided you take it to
- 2:05:58your king and say I'm limited. I see in parts and I prophecy in
- 2:06:02parts. This is the design I've made for
- 2:06:04myself using the knowledge that I have.
- 2:06:07But I come to you, who is Alpha Omega.
- 2:06:10You are the beginning and the end of my life.
- 2:06:12I give you unrestrained access to edit my plans and my goals.
- 2:06:16Sieve out the ones that are inconsistent with your will.
- 2:06:19I have the stamina to say yes even when it is painful.
- 2:06:23Come on now, this is a believer. How many of you will leave
- 2:06:28Canada today if God says been here, even though you've been
- 2:06:31here for five years? It's not his will.
- 2:06:32You will bind and cast that voice and say no way, no way,
- 2:06:36not just when. And sometimes He does not have
- 2:06:38to say leave when things are bad.
- 2:06:40It can't even be around your best days.
- 2:06:42I'm not saying you ask you to leave.
- 2:06:47Because some of you really want me to.
- 2:06:49Cancel that statement. Even though you know I'm joking,
- 2:06:51you still want me to at least just cancel it and you'll be.
- 2:06:56Surprised that in that joke, God.
- 2:06:58Is saying something, and yet there are.
- 2:07:01Others who this is where your. Destiny is but you may be
- 2:07:04roaming around somewhere in the earth like Cain.
- 2:07:07You will not find a place of refuge because you are outside
- 2:07:10of the will of God. He needs to bring you in a
- 2:07:12divine alignment. I pray for you in the name of
- 2:07:15Jesus Christ and by the power that raised Christ from the
- 2:07:17dead. Every part of your the script of
- 2:07:20your destiny right now that is unfolding and is inconsistent
- 2:07:25with the will of God. I pray for you, the grace to
- 2:07:28come into divine alignment. Receive it in the name.
- 2:07:33Of Jesus the grace to come into. Divine alignment, receive it in
- 2:07:36Jesus name. Hallelujah, let me give.
- 2:07:40You the second. Reason I.
- 2:07:43Come in the volume of the. Book.
- 2:08:21Here's the part of the song I like, no.
- 2:08:23Matter. Whatever may come my way, I'll
- 2:08:29follow. I'll follow how far, How far?
- 2:08:35No matter whatever may come my way.
- 2:08:56I'll follow. I'll follow out one more time,
- 2:09:04no matter. No matter whatever may come my
- 2:09:17way, I'll follow. No matter whatever may come my
- 2:09:21way. I'll.
- 2:09:22Follow. Abraham, take thou.
- 2:09:59Thy son, thy only son, whom thou lovest, and take him to a
- 2:10:04mountain, that I will show you. The Bible says Abraham arose
- 2:10:08early in the morning, not knowing where he was going, but
- 2:10:11trusting that the one who was leading him was faithful.
- 2:10:14Can I tell you this? Listen, no matter how.
- 2:10:18Visionary You. Are God will not show you
- 2:10:21everything about the journey. What then will be the value of
- 2:10:25faith? There will be gaps as far as the
- 2:10:29journey of your destiny is concerned.
- 2:10:31Intentionally created so that you will follow through faith
- 2:10:36and patience no matter how. Prophetic.
- 2:10:40No matter how visionary you are, you can know the destination,
- 2:10:44Jacob, Joseph, but he will never show you the well.
- 2:10:48He will never show you Potiphar's house.
- 2:10:50He will never show you the prison.
- 2:10:51He will just show you the throne and say if you trust me, follow
- 2:10:55me, follow me, follow me, follow me.
- 2:11:01The reason? Why people do not seem to get
- 2:11:05answers to prayer? I tell you God's way by his
- 2:11:08strategy is that there is usually a conflict.
- 2:11:12You will understand the value of what I've said here when I
- 2:11:15hopefully just point quickly before we pray how God answers
- 2:11:19prayers. Let me go ahead of myself and
- 2:11:21tell you I will tell you again. One of the major ways God
- 2:11:25answers prayer is to leave the subject of desire and change the
- 2:11:29best in praying because most times the problem is not about
- 2:11:33the request. The problem is about the state
- 2:11:36of the receiver. If God, God can walk upon the
- 2:11:39state of the receiver. It makes answers easy.
- 2:11:43What you are praying is right, but the state of the one
- 2:11:46desiring that money, that position, that increase, that
- 2:11:49anointing, If God brings the answer to you in that state, he
- 2:11:53will not be glorified and the glory will not be revealed in
- 2:11:56your life. That's the.
- 2:11:58Reason why many times. Sometimes God will intentionally
- 2:12:04delay the arrival of the answers because in that delay it is that
- 2:12:09delays coinciding with your seriousness in prayer, and God
- 2:12:13has been looking for a way to get your attention.
- 2:12:15He will not be in a hurry to bring the answers.
- 2:12:18He will allow it for an extended period so that as you pray to
- 2:12:21you, you believe you are pushing through.
- 2:12:23So the answers will come, but you are really pushing through
- 2:12:26so that you will grow. A time will come as you pray,
- 2:12:29especially extended periods of prayer.
- 2:12:32It will no longer be around about whether the answers come
- 2:12:36or not. You have found a treasure in the
- 2:12:38place of prayer greater than the answer.
- 2:12:41At that point, the answer will come.
- 2:12:43Usually it's in our weakness that His strength is revealed.
- 2:12:47When his when his strength comes and finds strength, it goes
- 2:12:51back. It waits until you exhaust all
- 2:12:54your options. No matter.
- 2:13:00Whatever may come my way, I'll follow you see, let me tell you
- 2:13:10this. God uses men.
- 2:13:12He always uses men, but he hates men trying to be him in your
- 2:13:17life. So every time you.
- 2:13:20Already have. Options.
- 2:13:22He will suspend his appearance and allow the vanity of your
- 2:13:27options to be on full display to make you need him sincerely.
- 2:13:32When the man who promised you disappoints you as men always
- 2:13:36do, then you go back to him. This time around you say, Lord,
- 2:13:39it doesn't matter whether you answer me again or not.
- 2:13:42And he says that's what I've been looking for.
- 2:13:43That state of brokenness now without you asking for certain
- 2:13:47things he will give you is the reason why most people receive
- 2:13:50answers. Quarter to shame.
- 2:13:52It's not quarter to shame. It's that's when they died and
- 2:13:54surrendered. Truly, when all the options are
- 2:13:57exhausted. Please sit down, we have to pray
- 2:14:03my. Goodness, it's good to be in a
- 2:14:06service. Like this?
- 2:14:08Give me 10 minutes and I'll wrap up.
- 2:14:14Why prayers fail to produce answers.
- 2:14:16Do not forget the conflict between the will of God and our
- 2:14:21desires. And the reason is because we can
- 2:14:24route to different other channels who have our desires
- 2:14:27met. But listen, ladies and
- 2:14:29gentlemen, it will fail to produce the glory of God in our
- 2:14:32lives. If the glory of God must be
- 2:14:35produced in your life, then it must subscribe to the will of
- 2:14:39God. Only walking in the will of God
- 2:14:42can surely produce the glory of God in the life of an
- 2:14:45individual. When you want to see the beauty
- 2:14:48and the glory of God revealed in and through the life of a man, a
- 2:14:52nation, a family, then they must understand how to subscribe,
- 2:14:56sometimes painfully so, to the will of God.
- 2:15:02I remember I started ministry in Zarya.
- 2:15:04For many of you who know the northern part of Nigeria, and we
- 2:15:07were doing well, it was at a point where God had shown us
- 2:15:11mercy. I mean, at that level, you can
- 2:15:13imagine, yeah. It was not a place that was
- 2:15:16easily friendly to the gospel. What God had granted us grace to
- 2:15:20prevail over the territorial powers at that level of
- 2:15:23ministry. It was honestly quite
- 2:15:25commendable. There were people already coming
- 2:15:27from the US, Canada. Can you imagine risking
- 2:15:30themselves and coming? God had shown mercy and at that
- 2:15:33time the voice of God came to me that it was time to move to the
- 2:15:37next season and the next dimension.
- 2:15:40It's easy to run away if you are feeling, but what if everything
- 2:15:43is working well? And I struggled with God here
- 2:15:49and there. Well, not.
- 2:15:50Struggling out of unbelief. But he was just trying to verify
- 2:15:54because it was a major decision. I knew in my spirit.
- 2:15:58He had shown me these. Days what I thought these days
- 2:16:01will come while I was in Zarya. You see, the more you.
- 2:16:05Fight the will of God. The more you fight prophecy from
- 2:16:08manifesting, you keep prolonging the timing of the manifestation
- 2:16:12of prophecy. Something that should take 400
- 2:16:15years may take 430 years because you are busy fighting the will
- 2:16:19of God. It is profitable to say yes even
- 2:16:22when you don't know how it will happen.
- 2:16:25Yes, we'll open up the. Doors for it.
- 2:16:27To happen and when it happens, I look at my life today and I look
- 2:16:31at what we're doing. I am sure, I am sure we would
- 2:16:35never would have entered this dimension of ministry if I
- 2:16:38disobeyed. Now, did you know if I
- 2:16:40disobeyed, God will respect it and leave it there, but the
- 2:16:43glory of God will stop being birthed in the ministry.
- 2:16:46People will call it backsliding. They will call it a demonic
- 2:16:49attack. It may not necessarily be a
- 2:16:51demonic attack. It was your disobedience and
- 2:16:53disalignment that gives Satan a window of opportunity.
- 2:16:58Did you get that struggle? Didn't know if he was Abuja, the
- 2:17:03FCT or somewhere else. And one day, in the place of
- 2:17:06prayer, God granted me grace. God used COVID to trap me in
- 2:17:10Abuja for a long time and I would never went back to Zary
- 2:17:12again and it was during. COVID.
- 2:17:15My goodness. God granted us grace to do
- 2:17:18business with God in deep waters.
- 2:17:20And after that time, it was like the eagle.
- 2:17:24You know how the eagle stays somewhere and the feathers
- 2:17:27itself and then grows fresh feathers?
- 2:17:31And today he's helping us fly, and only God knows where next
- 2:17:35He's taking us. Hallelujah.
- 2:17:40Praise God, the second reason why prayers are not.
- 2:17:46Answered or prayers do not seem to be answered.
- 2:17:50Are you ready? Or let me just say this quickly,
- 2:17:58there are three ways. To pray the will of God three
- 2:18:01ways I need to say this number one, praying scripture based
- 2:18:05prayers. The first way to pray the will
- 2:18:08of God is to pray Scripture based prayers #2 the second way
- 2:18:15to pray the will of God is praying in the Spirit.
- 2:18:19That means you engage the wisdom of the Spirit in prayer.
- 2:18:22The Bible already told us that when we pray in the Spirit, like
- 2:18:25I told you earlier on, we pray the mind of Christ, the will of
- 2:18:29God. So number one, the first way we
- 2:18:31pray the will of God is to pray Scripture based prayer #2
- 2:18:38praying in the Spirit, engaging the wisdom of the Spirit when we
- 2:18:43pray. Romans 826 and 27 already told
- 2:18:46us that the third way we pray is praying with the leverage of
- 2:18:51prophetic guidance and direction.
- 2:18:54The third way we pray, praying with the leverage of prophetic
- 2:18:59guidance and direction. This is where the prophetic
- 2:19:02ministry in its entirety provides an edge, an advantage,
- 2:19:07the prophetic and provide guidance into what God desires
- 2:19:11for you to do. And from that vantage position,
- 2:19:14you can pray. Who understands this?
- 2:19:17Let me repeat it again very quickly.
- 2:19:18We're about to pray three ways to pray the will of God #1
- 2:19:22Scripture based prayer. Why?
- 2:19:25Because the Word of God has been tried seven times.
- 2:19:28The Word of God contains His promises that are a reflection
- 2:19:33of His written and revealed will.
- 2:19:36That which is written, It is for our learning.
- 2:19:40He's written it already #2 praying.
- 2:19:43In the Spirit. Engaging the wisdom of God in
- 2:19:46prayer Whenever you cannot find directly from Scripture that
- 2:19:51which is bespoke to your current situation, you can pray in the
- 2:19:54Spirit and tap into the wisdom of the Holy Spirit #3 you can
- 2:20:00pray with the leverage of prophetic guidance and
- 2:20:04direction. The prophetic ministry may have
- 2:20:08or is going through a lot of evolution trying to clean up
- 2:20:12some of the the excesses and some of the things that have
- 2:20:16corrupted the prophetic ministry.
- 2:20:18And I understand God is helping the prophetic ministry and it's
- 2:20:21our responsibility to not only point fingers and complain, but
- 2:20:25keep interceding that God will raise a pure prophetic breed.
- 2:20:29Are we together? However, ignoring the prophetic
- 2:20:33ministry would all together be a disadvantage to the body of
- 2:20:36Christ, because the Bible says to despise, not prophesying.
- 2:20:40This is most important, particularly to the intercessory
- 2:20:44ministry. It's important for you to
- 2:20:46understand the will of God passes in through the leverage
- 2:20:49of prophetic guidance and direction.
- 2:20:52Then you can now pray Hallelujah.
- 2:20:58Imagine. If you did not.
- 2:21:00Know that there's a prophetic word that Jesus was supposed to
- 2:21:03die. Maybe if I was the disciple of
- 2:21:05Jesus, I will intercede and say, Father, no way he won't die.
- 2:21:09Not knowing that your sincere intercession will be fighting
- 2:21:12the will of God. I seen that.
- 2:21:14But if I know that he came to die, then as painful as it is, I
- 2:21:19would say your will be done. There are times that if God were
- 2:21:22to lead you even to your compassion, compassion can drive
- 2:21:26you to pray against the will of God for your life and for
- 2:21:29others. And so it's important to be
- 2:21:31circumspect, having knowledge. And sometimes the prophetic
- 2:21:35provides that vantage position, provides guidance and it
- 2:21:40provides direction. Hallelujah.
- 2:21:43This right here double S as the three ways to discern the will
- 2:21:47of God Scripture, the revelatory ministry of the Holy Spirit and
- 2:21:52the prophetic. Every time you are confused
- 2:21:54about knowing the will of God for your life, please, you have
- 2:21:57to learn this. These are the three channels to
- 2:22:00consult. If you consult any channels
- 2:22:02outside of this, your risk of error will be by far higher.
- 2:22:09The three ways to gain accuracy in discerning the will of God.
- 2:22:13Let me say that again #1 the Scripture.
- 2:22:17The scripture testifies of Christ #2 the revelatory
- 2:22:21ministry of the Holy Spirit. You can tap into the revelatory
- 2:22:25ministry of the Holy Spirit and gain insight as to God's will
- 2:22:29for your life. Part time pass season #3 you can
- 2:22:32leverage on the the revelatory dimension of the prophetic.
- 2:22:39Hallelujah. All through.
- 2:22:40Scripture, Old Testament, New Testament, and all of that.
- 2:22:45From from Moses to to Agabos, you'll find prophetic
- 2:22:50revelations giving insight as to what God desired for the people
- 2:22:53to do per time and for the many who obeyed.
- 2:22:57I worked in keeping with these channels.
- 2:22:59They found safety, they found protection, they were rescued or
- 2:23:03delivered, and so on and so forth.
- 2:23:05Praise God. Now let me wrap up quickly by
- 2:23:08giving you the second one. I don't have the time to explain
- 2:23:12unfortunately. Please you forgive me.
- 2:23:14Not understanding the believing, the second reason why prayers
- 2:23:17are not answered. Not understanding the believing
- 2:23:20dash receiving dash having formula.
- 2:23:26I've explained that. During the miracle.
- 2:23:28Service for last month. The second reason why prayers
- 2:23:31don't seem to be answered or manifested in our lives.
- 2:23:35Not understanding the believing dash receiving, dash having
- 2:23:41formula, you find that in Mark 11/24 What things so ever ye
- 2:23:47desire. The Bible says when you pray it
- 2:23:50says believe. There you find believing #2
- 2:23:54receive. There you find receiving and #3
- 2:23:57having. You have to understand how this
- 2:23:59tripartite prayer equation works.
- 2:24:02Believing, say, believing, receiving, say, receiving,
- 2:24:07having. One of our precious ladies gave
- 2:24:09the testimony. You see, you must know how to
- 2:24:12believe, to receive, and to have.
- 2:24:15If you believe alone, it will not manifest.
- 2:24:18If you believe and receive a loan you, it will not manifest.
- 2:24:21You must believe, you must receive, and then you have.
- 2:24:25These two are spiritual business, believing and
- 2:24:29receiving and then having. I'll be showing you how to have.
- 2:24:34You see that now? Many people do.
- 2:24:36Not have their prayers manifested even when it is the
- 2:24:38will of God because they believe, but they do not know
- 2:24:42the difference between receiving and having.
- 2:24:44Receiving is a spiritual reality.
- 2:24:47That is what we call a note of victory in the Spirit.
- 2:24:49When you pray, it's not manifested, but you know it's
- 2:24:53been released. You have received it.
- 2:24:55You receive by faith, then you have by receiving with your
- 2:24:59hands. The Bible says you cannot have
- 2:25:01what you have not received. The reason why many of us do not
- 2:25:04have is because we have not received how God answers
- 2:25:10prayers. We have to wrap up.
- 2:25:13Have you learnt anything? Let me give this to you quickly.
- 2:25:16Number one, the first way God answers prayer is through
- 2:25:21supernatural manifestations and divine intervention.
- 2:25:26The first way he answers prayers, supernatural
- 2:25:29manifestation of the answers now, and divine intervention
- 2:25:32like healing, like deliverance, that's something that is
- 2:25:35supernatural, but it manifests immediately supernatural.
- 2:25:40Manifestations. And divine interventions, the
- 2:25:43first way he answers prayers. So things like healing, things
- 2:25:47like deliverance, salvation, joy, you know those things
- 2:25:53manifest, even though they are supernatural, they manifest
- 2:25:56immediately. And you can know if someone gets
- 2:25:59up from the wheelchair, stands up and throws their crotch away,
- 2:26:02that's answer to prayer right there.
- 2:26:04If you cast out a demon from someone and the person is back
- 2:26:07in his right senses, like the madman in Gatherer, you see that
- 2:26:11there can be palpable joy and peace that people can experience
- 2:26:14right before you. You know prayers has been
- 2:26:16answered #2 The second way God answers prayer is by releasing
- 2:26:22graces, the graces that bring about the manifestation of the
- 2:26:26answers. He releases graces like wisdom.
- 2:26:30He releases graces like favor. He releases graces like
- 2:26:34understanding, among others. The second way God answers
- 2:26:38prayer, He may not give you anything physical, but He will
- 2:26:42deposit graces in you. You transact with those graces
- 2:26:46and you will have your answers. Wisdom favor.
- 2:26:51Are we together? Understanding?
- 2:26:53An example is what he did to Solomon.
- 2:26:55Solomon went to bed and woke up receiving things, but there was
- 2:26:59nothing physically that showed he had received.
- 2:27:01But from that point his life changed.
- 2:27:04You see that he was able to judge with discretion and with
- 2:27:07wisdom. One of the ways God answers.
- 2:27:10Prayer. Is by releasing graces the grace
- 2:27:15that is needed to prove that God has answered you, may it rest
- 2:27:19upon you #3. The third way God.
- 2:27:23Answers prayer is through the ministry of men.
- 2:27:27This is powerful, the ministry of men.
- 2:27:30Unfortunately, we don't have all the time 2 scriptures.
- 2:27:32Just write it. You'll read it later.
- 2:27:34Numbers chapter 1 and verse 5. Popular scripture in this house.
- 2:27:38Numbers one and verse 5. Then I'll give you Luke 10, 29
- 2:27:43to 36 Luke chapter 10 please 29 to 36 Luke chapter 1029 to 36.
- 2:27:52All of this scripture talk about the ministry of men.
- 2:27:56Listen, it is one of the if I'm to draw a pie chart and and then
- 2:28:00con them all together showing you how God answers prayer.
- 2:28:04A major part of that pie chart, maybe about 70% of the way God
- 2:28:09answers prayer, is through the ministry of men.
- 2:28:13Meaning. Whilst you are praying if you.
- 2:28:16See a man coming your way? Look.
- 2:28:18Well, that's an answer coming the ministry of men.
- 2:28:23In the name of Jesus, I pray for you, the man who carried the
- 2:28:27answers you have been praying for.
- 2:28:28From the depth of my heart, I speak it over you.
- 2:28:31May you collide with those men, and may you discern them as
- 2:28:35answers when you see them. Did you know some?
- 2:28:39Of you without without sounding. Arrogant.
- 2:28:41Did you know that our coming into this city and what we're
- 2:28:44doing right now is an answer to your prayer?
- 2:28:47Are we together? When you prayed, God answered
- 2:28:50you by sending us. God answers men by sending men
- 2:28:55because he he, he hosts his possibilities in men.
- 2:29:00Men carry divine answers. They do not just finances, not
- 2:29:05just opportunities, not just influence, not just access.
- 2:29:08God answered Joseph's prayer by introducing Pharaoh to him.
- 2:29:13God answered Daniel's prayer by introducing the king to him.
- 2:29:17When you find favor with men, it is one of the ways God answers
- 2:29:20prayers. So when you are praying, don't
- 2:29:22just look at the Holy Ghost alone.
- 2:29:24Don't just look around for angels.
- 2:29:26Men. The primary way of converting
- 2:29:29receiving to having is through the ministry of men for someone
- 2:29:34you. Have prayed you received.
- 2:29:35Since last year, but you are yet to have I prophecy over your
- 2:29:39life. The human agents who will work
- 2:29:42in partnership with the Holy Spirit and make for the
- 2:29:44manifestation of the things that you have prayed.
- 2:29:47I declare between now and sound of revival August in the name of
- 2:29:51Jesus, let there be an encounter with the right man.
- 2:29:55It's your season to have what you have received.
- 2:29:58It's your season to have what you have believed in the name of
- 2:30:02Jesus Christ. Hallelujah, praise the name of
- 2:30:06the Lord, the ministry of men. Men will come.
- 2:30:11As help us. Men will come as promote us.
- 2:30:14Men will come as endorse us. Men will come as gatekeepers.
- 2:30:19Don't ignore men. The heaven of heavens belong to
- 2:30:22the Lord, but the earth He has given to the children of men.
- 2:30:25You may have heard me teach that there are some men who cannot
- 2:30:28cast and bind. They are gatekeepers.
- 2:30:30Even if they are Cyrus's. God honors their position.
- 2:30:33He will give you favor with them.
- 2:30:35How does Joseph pray and castaway Pharaoh?
- 2:30:38Pharaoh is not leaving Egypt. It's a waste.
- 2:30:41You pray for favor so that you become Prime Minister.
- 2:30:46You. May have heard me say this.
- 2:30:48You don't fight every battle. It's not every enemy in front of
- 2:30:52you that is for your fighting. If you stand before Saul, don't
- 2:30:56fight him. But if you stand before Goliath,
- 2:30:59fight. Don't use your sword carelessly.
- 2:31:02You may kill Nebuchadnezzar, kill Pharaoh, kill a Hazaros,
- 2:31:07simply because you are a warrior.
- 2:31:09A warrior must have intelligence.
- 2:31:11If you stand before a Hazaros, you don't fight, you find favor
- 2:31:14with him. If you stand before
- 2:31:16Nebuchadnezzar, you don't fight, you have favor with him.
- 2:31:19But if you stand before Goliath, you fight.
- 2:31:22If you stand before the Philistines, you fight.
- 2:31:25Don't use your swords carelessly.
- 2:31:27Just because they are enemies do doesn't mean that the way of
- 2:31:30victory is to fight them. When a man's ways pleases the
- 2:31:33Lord, he makes even his enemies. I'm telling you, some of you,
- 2:31:38you killed everybody in front of you, provided they were your
- 2:31:41enemy. And you mix both Goliath and
- 2:31:44Pharaoh and Nebuchadnezzar. Are you saying that useful
- 2:31:48people God does not only use believers to bless, he uses
- 2:31:52Cyruses and Pharaohs? You must be discerning.
- 2:31:55Don't use your sword and kill Pharaoh.
- 2:31:57You will remain in the prison. The final way God answers
- 2:32:10prayers. I don't even know what that
- 2:32:12number is. 4 or five, anyone. You are right.
- 2:32:16Number last. He causes you to grow.
- 2:32:20He causes you to grow. This is powerful.
- 2:32:25The way God answers prayers sometimes is to suspend the
- 2:32:29subject matter of desire and focus on the believer and cause
- 2:32:34you to grow because an heir for as long as that heir is a child,
- 2:32:39he different nothing from his slave even though he be Lord of
- 2:32:42all. There are times that is in your
- 2:32:44destiny to work in certain realities, but not this version
- 2:32:48of you now the. Government will be upon the.
- 2:32:51Shoulder of the son, not the child.
- 2:32:54It is true that Jesus had the destiny of a savior, but a baby
- 2:32:58could not save even though he was called Savior.
- 2:33:00He needed to grow. Luke 252.
- 2:33:03That baby increased in wisdom, he increased in stature, he
- 2:33:08increased in favor with God and with men, and as such, he was
- 2:33:13able to run his assignment and to finish it.
- 2:33:16Ladies and gentlemen, sometimes the bankruptcy of unsigned
- 2:33:20prayer is not a demonic attack. It's a call for growth.
- 2:33:24It's a call for growth. There are some of you.
- 2:33:27If you do contend for growth in prayer, there are some things
- 2:33:30you would not need to ask for because it was already in your
- 2:33:33destiny. If a father writes.
- 2:33:39A wheel for his child that when this child is 18, give him a
- 2:33:42car, give him this estate, give him this amount.
- 2:33:45If the child reads the wheel at 11 and insists he will still not
- 2:33:50get it. Not because the father hates
- 2:33:52him, but there's an age requirement.
- 2:33:54Am I right on that if you drive a car, even if you drive well
- 2:33:58and they catch you and you are a minor, I don't know what age it
- 2:34:01works At what age is it in? In the minimum age 1616 back
- 2:34:07home is 18, you see. So if a 13 year old.
- 2:34:12Child who is able to drive well is caught driving.
- 2:34:16The law will still be against you because even though you have
- 2:34:20the knowledge, even though you have the skill, there is a
- 2:34:23growth requirement. There are some things that only
- 2:34:26time can do. Growth.
- 2:34:28Don't fight process. Don't fight process.
- 2:34:32The Bible says after four months, then comes the harvest.
- 2:34:37After four months. Biology would teach us that a
- 2:34:40woman gets pregnant and even though she's happy and healthy,
- 2:34:43she will have to wait nine months.
- 2:34:45Am I right on that? Yes, the woman will not pray for
- 2:34:49nine months. She will have to wait until that
- 2:34:52time. Then she gives birth.
- 2:34:53It's not a prayer point. She just needs to wait.
- 2:34:56The days pass sometimes, like they would not pass, but it's
- 2:34:59going slowly and by the time she gets there, she will give birth
- 2:35:03happily after four months. This is a prophetic word for
- 2:35:06someone. After four months, then comes
- 2:35:09the harvest. Your harvest is already on the
- 2:35:11way. It's already in your.
- 2:35:14Destiny. You don't need to keep crying,
- 2:35:18crying and whining and shouting. Just focus on growth and lavish
- 2:35:22your journey to growth with Thanksgiving.
- 2:35:24The ministry is already in your destiny.
- 2:35:26You are a man of God. Truly.
- 2:35:28It's in your prophetic destiny. But avoid premature
- 2:35:31manifestation. That is what we call the season
- 2:35:34of appearing Luke chapter 1 and verse 80 the Bible says.
- 2:35:37And John remained in the wilderness until his season of
- 2:35:41showing forth. After four months, then comes
- 2:35:45the harvest for someone. Prophetically, you are in your
- 2:35:47third month. Be patient.
- 2:35:49You've gone more than halfway the journey.
- 2:35:51Just stay with the Holy Ghost. Keep praying.
- 2:35:53You don't need to do anything new, just keep doing it.
- 2:35:55Haven't done all to stand, stand, keep praying, keep
- 2:35:59fasting, keep building, keep giving.
- 2:36:01You are entering your season. Rise up on your feet, hold hands
- 2:36:04with someone by your left and right.
- 2:36:06And let's celebrate what God has taught us this afternoon now, or
- 2:36:12this night back in Africa. Go ahead and give Jesus praise.
- 2:36:15Hold hands with someone left and right.
- 2:36:19Breathe, Lord. Breathe, Lord.
- 2:36:22Breathe, Lord, breathe. Breathe upon my life.
- 2:36:30Breathe, Lord. Breathe, Lord.
- 2:36:32Breathe, Lord, breathe. Breathe upon my life I receive,
- 2:36:41I manifest your power and your wisdom.
- 2:36:49Till the nation see Jesus lift it up, it's all there.
- 2:36:59I receive, I manifest your power and your wisdom.
- 2:37:20I like you to open up your mouth and begin to.
- 2:37:22Speak. My prayer will produce results
- 2:37:25as I pray produces power, propelling my destiny from one
- 2:37:30dimension of Kingdom accomplishment to the other.
- 2:37:33Come on, go ahead and pray. I pray.
- 2:37:36Succumb spectly. I pray intelligently.
- 2:37:45It's a new. Season for my prayer life.

- 2:38:11Are you praying India? Are you praying Australia,
- 2:38:15France, Germany? It's a new season.
- 2:38:23In the name of Jesus. Self term in the name of Jesus,
- 2:38:28Shout it again. In the name of Jesus, I decree
- 2:38:33and I declare. Fresh fire upon my prayer altar,
- 2:38:38fresh fire upon my prayer altar. Lift your voice and pray.
- 2:38:44Fresh fire upon my prayer altar. Fresh fire.
- 2:38:49The grace to pray all kinds of prayer.
- 2:38:53The grace to pray with intelligence.
- 2:38:56The grace to travail. The grace to pray.
- 2:39:15In Jesus name we pray, Hallelujah, say the name of
- 2:39:19Jesus. I decree and I declare every
- 2:39:25activity, every occurrence in my life, my finances, my family, my
- 2:39:33health that is inconsistent with the will of God over my life.
- 2:39:39I declare it stops. Now open your mouth and pray.
- 2:39:44Every activity, every occurrence, every event
- 2:39:49happening in my life, happening in Koinonia, happening in my
- 2:39:54family that is inconsistent. Come and pray, Canada.
- 2:39:58Come on, pray. Colonial, global.
- 2:40:01If it is inconsistent with the will of God for my life, the
- 2:40:06will of God for my destiny, let it stop.
- 2:40:10I fight it by faith. Let it stop sickness, let it
- 2:40:15stop failure, let it stop poverty, let it stop.
- 2:40:20Delay. Let it stop retrogression.
- 2:40:24Let it stop. If it is.
- 2:40:27Inconsistent with the will. Of God inconsistent with the
- 2:40:32word of God. Let it stop.
- 2:40:35I take responsibility over my life and my prophetic destiny,
- 2:40:40and I declare let it stop. Let prayerlessness stop.
- 2:40:45Let demonic attacks stop. Let failure stop failure at the
- 2:40:51edge. Of breakthrough, let it.
- 2:40:53Stop rising and falling. Let it stop inconsistency.
- 2:40:58Let it stop in Jesus name. We pray numbers one and verse 5.
- 2:41:07These are the names of the men that shall stand with you.
- 2:41:11We are about to pray. The men who will stand with you

- 2:47:19In Jesus mighty. Name we pray Hallelujah.
- 2:47:25Please everyone stand if you are able to everyone stand if you
- 2:47:28are able to except otherwise everyone stand.
- 2:47:32I want to make what I believe is a most important call right now.
- 2:47:37It is a call to make it right with Jesus.
- 2:47:40Haven't taught you on prayer. The Bible says if I cherish
- 2:47:44iniquity in my heart, it says the Lord would not have heard me
- 2:47:47if I prayed. The prayer of an unrighteous man
- 2:47:50is an abomination unto God. The only prayer of an
- 2:47:53unrighteous man that the Lord hears and receives and answers
- 2:47:56is the prayer of mercy. Hallelujah, because his.
- 2:48:00Mercy triumphs over. Judgment blind, Battimio cried
- 2:48:03and said, Thou son of David, have mercy upon me.
- 2:48:07I want to speak to someone right now.
- 2:48:09I have just a minute for you. I'm using Canada as a platform
- 2:48:14to speak to Kaunonia Global and to as many who are connected.
- 2:48:18Every time God gathers us like this for a time of fellowship,
- 2:48:21He also brings in our midst as many who need to make it right
- 2:48:25with Jesus. John chapter 316 says, for God
- 2:48:28so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son.
- 2:48:32He says that whosoever that includes you, that includes you
- 2:48:36watching, that includes you listening, that includes you
- 2:48:39watching me right here on site, that whosoever believeth on him
- 2:48:43should not perish. It's a law, but have life
- 2:48:46everlasting. He says, for God did not send
- 2:48:48his Son into the world to destroy the world or to condemn
- 2:48:52the world, but that the world through him might be saved.
- 2:48:57You're in this place and you're saying, apostle, I came here, I
- 2:49:00enjoyed the worship, I enjoyed the teaching, but in all
- 2:49:03honesty, I know that I need Jesus.
- 2:49:06I consider myself a good person, but I've not made that decision
- 2:49:10or perhaps you are saying, Apostle, I remember making this
- 2:49:13decision one time, but as it stands now, my life has gone
- 2:49:16haywire. I need restoration.
- 2:49:18I'm going to make these two calls in one.
- 2:49:21And as I'm making this call that applies to those who are
- 2:49:23connecting from Abuja and those who are connecting across the
- 2:49:26globe here, and all the overflows around here and all
- 2:49:30the overflows around Abuja and everywhere else the viewing
- 2:49:33centers, now is your chance to make it right with Jesus.
- 2:49:36It pays. He's the way, not a way, not one
- 2:49:41of the ways. He's the truth and He leads you
- 2:49:44to life. Jesus is able to give you rest.
- 2:49:47He's able to give you peace that surpasses all understanding and
- 2:49:50to restore your joy, joy that is of the Holy Ghost.
- 2:49:53You have given things of lesser value a chance with your life.
- 2:49:57Why don't you give everything to Jesus and watch what He's able
- 2:50:00to do, including the broken version of you.
- 2:50:03No matter how broken, no matter how disoriented or confused you
- 2:50:07are, I propose to you, the One who is the Potter, He's able to
- 2:50:12remote, to remake, to rebuild, and to bring glory out of your
- 2:50:16life. I'll make my call right now,
- 2:50:18wherever you are. As we clap to encourage them, I
- 2:50:21want to see a bold brother, a bold sister.
- 2:50:24God bless you. They are coming.
- 2:50:26God bless you. They are coming.
- 2:50:28Go ahead. Yes.
- 2:50:31Lord, keep coming. Too.
- 2:50:34Yes, Lord, you can stand my soul too.

- 2:51:12Lord, Yes Lord, it is never too late to make it right with
- 2:51:25Jesus. Keep coming, keep coming for
- 2:51:29your sake. We will wait.
- 2:51:31Let's always move on the front. For.
- 2:51:33Jesus. Yes, Lord, Yes, Lord, don't be
- 2:51:54ashamed of who looks at you left and.

- 2:52:35We're here in. Canada Preaching.
- 2:52:37Jesus, this is Koinonia Global and this is the altar call.
- 2:52:41Perhaps you connected sometime in the course of the service and
- 2:52:45Jesus is calling on you and the Bible says in the day that you
- 2:52:48hear His voice, do not harden your heart.
- 2:52:51He's given you a chance to make it right with Him.
- 2:52:54And I pray that as I lead this, precious ones were in front in
- 2:52:57prayer. You can join them.
- 2:52:59I may not see you, you are the other side of the camera, but I
- 2:53:02want you to know that Jesus is right there in your room, your
- 2:53:05office, or even if you're watching by way of rebroadcast.
- 2:53:08He's giving you a new beginning. And as I lead them in prayer,
- 2:53:12I'd like you to pray, but do so believe in that.
- 2:53:14It's a new season for you. Amen.
- 2:53:17Let's give these precious people a big round of applause.
- 2:53:21Thank you, Hallelujah. May I request my dear brothers
- 2:53:25and sisters, that you lift your right hand, let it be as high as
- 2:53:29you can, high above your head. That means I love you.
- 2:53:32That means I'm truly surrendered.
- 2:53:34And for you, those in Abuja and all those who desire to make
- 2:53:37this prayer, let's say this in concert minute, from the depth
- 2:53:40of your heart, say Lord Jesus again.
- 2:53:43Say Lord Jesus, I have heard your word, I believe.
- 2:53:48You are the. Son of God, I love you with all
- 2:53:53my heart. I declare in the name of Jesus
- 2:53:58that you are Savior, you are Lord, you are King.
- 2:54:04Over my life I receive forgiveness of sins.
- 2:54:08I declare that the power of sin, Satan, hell and the grave is
- 2:54:17broken over my life from today and forever.
