The Grace for Visibility: Accessing the Hear Ye Him Anointing – Apostle Joshua Selman Koinonia Abuja · Selah Media House

• 0:00
  Father, we want to say thank you for your mercy.
• 0:03
  Thank you for your grace. Go ahead and thank him in one
• 0:06
  minute. He has done all things well and
• 0:10
  we glorify him. King of Kings, Lord of Lords,
• 0:15
  Alpha Omega, the beginning and the ending.
• 0:20
  Lord Jesus, we give you praise. Shalika Prantasila Caparando
• 0:26
  separatist, we bless you, we bless you, we bless you.
• 0:30
  Bless the Lord, O my soul, he says, and all that is within me.
• 0:35
  Bless his holy name. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and
• 0:39
  forget not his benefits. Someone who is grateful, in one
• 0:43
  minute would you lift your hands and your voice to heaven.
• 0:47
  Bless his name for his kindness. Go ahead and bless him.

  Shabala Baranto Sabragadi Bellege Barada.
• 0:57
  You're my hiding place, my safe refuge, my treasure Lord.
• 1:08
  You are my friend and king, and all day one must hope.
• 1:53
  Father, we bless you for tonight.
• 1:55
  Thank you for the privilege you have given us to be in your
• 1:59
  presence, to learn your ways to receive grace.
• 2:03
  Thank you. Thank you for the entrance of
• 2:06
  your word gives light and it gives understanding onto the
• 2:10
  simple. Lord we thank you and we bless
• 2:13
  you forever. May your name be glorified in
• 2:18
  Jesus matchless name. We pray.
• 2:21
  Give Jesus a big hand clap. God bless you everyone.
• 2:26
  Hallelujah, please, you may be seated.
• 2:29
  Good evening everybody. God bless you to those who are
• 2:33
  here on site and to the many who are connected across the globe.
• 2:37
  I bring you greetings in the name of Jesus.
• 2:41
  Every time the Lord gathers us like this, it is to make us, to
• 2:46
  build us so that we become a people, refined, the people,
• 2:51
  empowered even by his Spirit. And the psalmist said, I was
• 2:56
  glad when they said unto me, let us go to the House of the Lord.
• 3:04
  Blessed be the name of the Lord. Let me remind you again that
• 3:08
  many things happened to us in his presence.
• 3:11
  There's healing, there's deliverance, there's
• 3:14
  transformation, there's impartation, there's direction,
• 3:19
  strengthening of your convictions.
• 3:22
  But of all the spiritual activities that happen in the
• 3:25
  presence of God, the most important ones, as far as I'm
• 3:32
  concerned, is your enlightenment and your empowerment.
• 3:37
  Now many activities happen in the House of God, in the
• 3:40
  presence of God that are always profitable to the believer, but
• 3:46
  in order of spiritual priority, the most important of all the
• 3:50
  spiritual activities that happen whilst you are in His presence
• 3:54
  is your enlightenment and your empowerment.
• 3:58
  Your enlightenment is the basis for your transformation.
• 4:03
  And then empowerment supplies you the grace, the spiritual
• 4:07
  wherewithal to become a testament of the things that you
• 4:11
  have learned. I'm praying in the name of Jesus
• 4:14
  that these and more will become your experience tonight.
• 4:18
  Shout a loud Amen, Hallelujah, Praise the name of the Lord.
• 4:24
  As you submit yourself to the Word of God and to the ministry
• 4:28
  of the Holy Spirit week in, week out, be rest assured and for
• 4:33
  some, be comforted by this, that the making process is ongoing in
• 4:38
  your life. Line upon line, precept upon
• 4:42
  precept, Here a little, there a little.
• 4:45
  You are evolving. You are molting, you are
• 4:48
  growing, you are expanding in the Spirit.
• 4:52
  One day you will wake up to find out that you cannot find your
• 4:56
  former self again. The weak you is gone forever.
• 5:00
  Ignorant you gone forever. The fearful you gone forever.
• 5:05
  Are we together, the one they call a failure gone forever?
• 5:09
  You will search for that one and not find a gain.
• 5:14
  You will wake up to a brand new believer.
• 5:16
  You will wake up to a believer who is full of grace, full of
• 5:19
  wisdom, full of favor, full of power.
• 5:23
  You will be the first wonder at your life in the name of Jesus.
• 5:29
  I'm confident because the basis for your growth and your
• 5:35
  education is the Word of God. You're not receiving cunningly
• 5:39
  devised fables. You're not receiving the
• 5:41
  opinions of men. What you are receiving is beyond
• 5:44
  sociologies, beyond science. We're not just teaching you
• 5:47
  natural laws. These are spirit communications.
• 5:52
  They they appeal to your intellect, but make no mistakes
• 5:55
  about them. They are birthed from the realm
• 5:58
  of the Spirit and they sustain the power to drive your life
• 6:02
  beyond the physical. So in addition to the
• 6:06
  information you are hearing, as intellectual as it may sound,
• 6:09
  I'd like you to be rest assured that you're receiving beyond the
• 6:11
  lecture. There is the ministry of the
• 6:14
  Spirit. It's called the ministry of
• 6:16
  life. Are we together?
• 6:17
  It's not only your brain and your mind that is participating.
• 6:21
  There are certain transactions and certain levels of reception
• 6:25
  that cannot be done at a mental realm.
• 6:28
  So all you think you got is not all you got.
• 6:32
  There is a level of transference that is a spirit transfer that
• 6:36
  one time will begin to show the weight of what you received in
• 6:40
  your spirit. You will wake up 1 morning with
• 6:43
  wisdom you cannot account for. You will wake up 1 morning with
• 6:46
  levels of favour and activation. A quickening has happened in
• 6:50
  your spirit. You believe that.
• 6:51
  Say Amen. As always, your responsibility
• 6:55
  is to believe in the making process.
• 6:57
  You have a role to play. Believe in the making process.
• 7:01
  Believe in the training process. Trust God enough to risk your
• 7:06
  life. Risk your life and tremble at
• 7:08
  His word. Trust God enough.
• 7:11
  Submit to the teachings line upon line, as simple or
• 7:15
  complicated as they may sound, in whichever way and manner they
• 7:19
  come. Your assignment is to receive
• 7:21
  the engrafted word believing that God is not a man that he
• 7:26
  should lie, nor the Son of man that he should repent.
• 7:29
  Can I tell you your diligence is how lucky you are?
• 7:33
  That's what people call luck. It's it's a human way of
• 7:38
  interpreting your diligence, your discipline, your
• 7:40
  commitment, your staying power. They call it luck, but it's not
• 7:45
  luck. It's a foolish.
• 7:47
  Man's way of describing discipline.
• 7:50
  They call it LOC. But I pray for you in the name
• 7:53
  of Jesus, that God will move you through knowledge beyond the
• 7:57
  realm of Loc. That you will step into the
• 8:00
  realm of mastery where you can predict without prophesying how
• 8:05
  accurate your tomorrow can be. That you will not live in fear.
• 8:09
  Again. Because you have been supplied
• 8:11
  the requisite level of knowledge to work in partnership with the
• 8:15
  Holy Spirit and design A future that brings glory to the name of
• 8:19
  the Lord. If that describes you, shout
• 8:21
  Amen. I've been on an ongoing journey
• 8:26
  with us, particularly for this month of June.
• 8:28
  It's been an interesting month as we have been uncovering the
• 8:33
  mysteries of the Kingdom. Now for a quick foundation.
• 8:38
  Matthew chapter 13 and verse 11 teaches that the Kingdom of God
• 8:42
  operates in mysteries. Jesus is teaching and he says it
• 8:46
  has been given unto you to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of
• 8:51
  heaven and in in the simplest of times the word mystery means a
• 8:56
  body of knowledge that is only Privy to a group of people.
• 9:00
  Mystery there does not necessarily refer to it being
• 9:04
  secret or classified per SE. It is just that you have to be
• 9:08
  in the Kingdom for this body of spiritual information to make
• 9:12
  sense to you. For the Bible declares that the
• 9:15
  carnal man cannot understand the things of the Spirit.
• 9:18
  Why? Because they are spiritually
• 9:20
  discerned. So we've been on an ongoing
• 9:24
  journey of a thorough spiritual education.
• 9:27
  Let me remind you again that I taught you that in learning the
• 9:30
  Word of God there are at. Least three layers.
• 9:35
  To engage in the Word of God number one, there is a historic
• 9:40
  or archaeological layer. So you can engage the Word of
• 9:45
  God, studying it from a historic or an archaeological
• 9:48
  perspective. You want to learn the things
• 9:51
  that happen and feed your mind from a historic standpoint,
• 9:54
  which in itself is profitable #2 The second layer is a doctrina
• 10:00
  layer where you deal with scripture contextually, and your
• 10:04
  goal is to pull out the doctrines from the Latin word
• 10:09
  doctrina, the Greekish dydaskalia, a body of knowledge,
• 10:13
  like a curriculum that has already been designed, a portion
• 10:17
  for the making of a student. Hallelujah.
• 10:21
  So there is a doctrinal layer to the study of Scripture.
• 10:25
  And then the third layer is called the prophetic layer.
• 10:29
  This is where through the wisdom of the Spirit, you are able to
• 10:33
  piece together sometimes uncorrelated verses.
• 10:36
  And with them you are able to, with the intelligence of a
• 10:40
  painter, you are able to paint certain spiritual pictures.
• 10:44
  You call them mysteries. You draw principles out of them
• 10:48
  that empower the Saints to walk in dominion.
• 10:52
  Now, for a believer to be holistically built, you must at
• 10:55
  one point or the other, alternating as much as possible,
• 11:00
  explore the Word of God from these 3 dimensions.
• 11:03
  When you limit it to 1 dimension, as powerful as it is,
• 11:06
  eventually there'll be a side effect.
• 11:08
  If you look at the Bible and engage the Word of God purely
• 11:12
  from a prophetic dimension, you will understand the principles
• 11:17
  of the Kingdom, but you will not have a thorough knowledge of
• 11:20
  doctrine, the foundational pillars upon which your faith is
• 11:24
  hinged on. So you will succeed, but your
• 11:27
  faith will not be strong. When life shakes you, you will
• 11:31
  fall like a pack of card because you are not standing.
• 11:33
  You are not built upon the rock. But when you understand
• 11:36
  doctrine, your conviction as a believer will be strong.
• 11:40
  But in most cases, you will not understand how to dynamically
• 11:46
  navigate the path towards establishing victory and
• 11:49
  experience. You will understand the theology
• 11:51
  of victory, but never know how to manifest it in experience.
• 11:55
  And when you study the Bible purely historically or
• 11:58
  archaeologically alone, you will end up being a very intelligent
• 12:03
  person, a student of knowledge, a scholar with no capacity
• 12:07
  whatsoever to make a mark in the Spirit.
• 12:11
  So building a believer holistically demands that you at
• 12:14
  least touch as frequent as possible and as well arranged as
• 12:20
  possible, the historic archaeological layer of
• 12:23
  Scripture, the doctrinal layer of Scripture, and the prophetic
• 12:27
  layer of Scripture. You would notice for a few weeks
• 12:29
  we've been exploring Scripture from its prophetic layer.
• 12:32
  That's how we've been drawing forth the mysteries of the
• 12:35
  Kingdom. I call them teaching you the
• 12:38
  laws. The Bible calls them the laws of
• 12:41
  the heavens. Job 38 and verse 33 NIV says, do
• 12:46
  you know the laws of the heavens?
• 12:50
  And can you by those laws establish God's dominion upon
• 12:54
  the earth? These are the laws by which the
• 12:57
  heavens regulates itself, and if you understand those mysteries,
• 13:01
  with them you will be able to command and gain mastery as far
• 13:06
  as the subject of victory and dominion is concerned.
• 13:11
  And if you've been learning so far, I'd like you to shout Amen.
• 13:15
  We've discussed a number of teachings.
• 13:16
  Please make sure you are a serious student.
• 13:19
  Hallelujah, you are a serious student.
• 13:21
  You are doing your destiny every good by paying attention to this
• 13:26
  communication of the Word of God.
• 13:28
  It helps you, You will need it, I assure you.
• 13:31
  The race in life is run. Personally he says I have run
• 13:36
  the race, not we have run the race.
• 13:38
  There can be many athletes but everyone is running for himself.
• 13:41
  Perhaps you'll be given the liberty to help someone on the
• 13:43
  way, but you only help someone whilst you run.
• 13:47
  Are we together? Praise the name of the Lord.
• 13:49
  So pay attention. Archive these mysteries.
• 13:52
  Dark days will come, rainy days will come, and you should be
• 13:56
  confident because you can reach into the archive spiritually,
• 14:01
  mentally, and draw for the principles as occasion demands.
• 14:05
  This is how to work in dominion. You don't wish Dominion.
• 14:09
  You don't just imagine Dominion. You are equipped to work in
• 14:15
  dominion, mystery upon mystery. And tonight, by the Spirit of
• 14:19
  God and in partnership with His Word, I bring you another one of
• 14:25
  such mysteries, and I'm praying in the name of Jesus.
• 14:28
  This is a very. Personal one for me and I trust
• 14:30
  that in the name of Jesus it will be 1 of the arsenals that
• 14:34
  you will put in. Like a man filling up his quiver
• 14:39
  with arrows and becoming an exceptional Archer.
• 14:44
  Not only with your quiver full of arrows, but teaching you how
• 14:48
  to bend the ball and how to shoot with precision.
• 14:51
  That you don't waste life does not give you the chance to keep
• 14:54
  experimenting indefinitely. My assignment is to help
• 14:58
  minimize your. Arrow make to help life make
• 15:01
  sense from a scriptural standpoint and if you love your
• 15:05
  destiny that much. Then let it show us you
• 15:08
  participate tonight. Let it show us you listen with
• 15:10
  rapt, undivided attention tonight.
• 15:13
  May I request that you pray in the Spirit for one minute as you
• 15:16
  prepare the soil of your heart to receive.
• 15:18
  That includes those who are falling online.
• 15:20
  Please go ahead and pray. He was The sun has eternal
• 15:29
  light. I have the sun, so I have
• 15:35
  eternal life. He who has the Son has eternal
• 15:44
  life. I have the Son.
• 15:49
  So I have eternal life in the name of Jesus Christ.
• 15:56
  Hallelujah. Tonight I'm teaching on the
• 15:59
  grace for Visibility. I want to show you by the Spirit
• 16:06
  how to access the Hear Ye hymn anointing.
• 16:09
  We will be ending tonight's teaching with a very serious
• 16:13
  impartation because for someone, the meaning of this teaching is
• 16:16
  that your season of manifestation has come in the
• 16:20
  name of Jesus. I'm not saying it to everybody,
• 16:22
  but from my heart, I'm saying it to someone.
• 16:25
  Among the many arsenals God promised you this year, the one
• 16:29
  required for your showing forth has finally arrived for you.
• 16:34
  And let me tell you with the confidence of a Bible believer,
• 16:37
  no power in existence sustains the ability to stop you by this
• 16:42
  teaching. I announce to you that it is
• 16:45
  your season. I announce to you again that is
• 16:49
  your season. I announce to you one last time
• 16:53
  it is your season. In the name of Jesus, please be
• 16:59
  seated the grace for visibility. There is an anointing called the
• 17:07
  hear ye him. Anointing is the grace that can
• 17:13
  cause a man regardless your background, regardless your
• 17:19
  past, regardless the family you came from.
• 17:24
  It doesn't matter. The limitations is the grace
• 17:27
  that sustains the power to elevate a man from a place of
• 17:31
  hiding, to elevate a man from a place where you are alone, like
• 17:36
  a seed inside the soil, and it pulls you beyond the realm of
• 17:41
  gravity until you become a visible force.
• 17:45
  And I'm praying in the name of Jesus that by the power of the
• 17:49
  Holy Spirit, again, let someone who has been in hiding, let
• 17:54
  someone who has. Been kept beyond necessary.
• 17:58
  Let this season announce you mightily.
• 18:06
  In the name of Jesus Christ, Hallelujah.
• 18:14
  Hallelujah. Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
• 19:03
  Hallelujah. Glory be to God.
• 19:05
  I rejoice over your life in advance.
• 19:08
  I'm telling you, I rejoice over you.
• 19:11
  In the name of Jesus, I rejoice over you.
• 19:14
  Rejoice over you. I rejoice over you.
• 19:18
  I rejoice over you. You will receive a key tonight
• 19:21
  that will change your life forever.
• 19:24
  You will receive a key that will mightily transform you.
• 19:27
  It will define another season. Your life.
• 19:34
  Hallelujah. Please be seated if you can.
• 19:39
  Let me speak for one minute to those who are online.
• 19:42
  Gather everybody you know, whether you're a CEO or
• 19:46
  particularly you're a businessman, you're a
• 19:49
  politician, you are struggling with stuntedness.
• 19:52
  Get on your set, get on your TV and sit down to listen.
• 19:56
  I have something to tell you and I want you to listen.
• 20:05
  We are made by the body of light and the spiritual knowledge that
• 20:09
  we know there are no guesses and there are no mistakes to
• 20:13
  sustainable results. And if you will listen, and if
• 20:17
  you will humble yourself tonight, I told you there will
• 20:20
  be an impartation, a mighty impartation.
• 20:24
  You will carry something tonight you did not come home with.
• 20:28
  Believe me when I tell you, man of God, businessman, my young
• 20:32
  brother and sister know you helpless, defenseless, but you
• 20:36
  will carry something tonight that has at the time you left
• 20:39
  home, you didn't come with it, but you will return back with
• 20:42
  that grace in the name of Jesus, let me teach you tonight the
• 20:49
  dynamics for accessing the Hear Ye hymn anointing Amen.
• 20:55
  Help us Holy Spirit be glorified in Jesus name.
• 20:59
  We pray 2 scriptures very quickly.
• 21:02
  Deuteronomy 28 and verse one one verse.
• 21:05
  We have a lot to do. Thank you Jesus and it shall
• 21:10
  come to pass. Deuteronomy 28 and verse one.
• 21:13
  If thou shall hearken diligently to the voice of the Lord thy God
• 21:19
  to observe and to do all his commandments which I command
• 21:23
  thee this day. Let's read together that the
• 21:27
  Lord thy God will set thee high above all the nations of the
• 21:34
  earth. That last line again, that the
• 21:36
  Lord thy God will set thee high above all nations of the earth.
• 21:43
  Matthew chapter 17 will read from verse one and end at 5.
• 21:47
  Matthew 17 one and verse 5. Verse 5, after six days Jesus
• 21:53
  taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them
• 21:57
  up into a high mountain apart. Verse 2 And he was transfigured
• 22:03
  before them, and his face did shine as the sun, and his
• 22:07
  raiment was white as the light. Verse 3 And behold, there
• 22:12
  appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
• 22:18
  Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for
• 22:21
  us to be here, if thou wilt, let us make 3 tabernacles, one for
• 22:25
  thee, one for Moses, and one for Elias.
• 22:28
  Elijah Now. But while he spake, behold a
• 22:33
  bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold a voice out of the
• 22:39
  cloud which said, This is my beloved son, in whom I am well
• 22:47
  pleased. Hear ye him, Father, bless us by
• 22:53
  your word. Let it change our lives in Jesus
• 22:56
  name. The only way people can receive
• 23:00
  from you is to be aware you are. There, the only way people can
• 23:05
  receive from you is to be aware that you are around and that you
• 23:11
  are present. You cannot receive anything from
• 23:14
  a man whose presence you are not aware of.
• 23:18
  Are we together now? The only way, people.
• 23:21
  Can receive from you whether your spiritual investment, your
• 23:25
  intellectual investment, whatever it is that you carry as
• 23:29
  an answer and as a solution. The only way people can receive
• 23:34
  is to be aware that you are there.
• 23:36
  No matter how gifted you are, no matter how anointed you are, no
• 23:41
  matter how skilled you are, no matter how invested you are, if
• 23:47
  people do not know that you are there and they do not understand
• 23:51
  the implication of your presence, are we together now?
• 23:56
  You will live a frustrated life no matter how sincere you are.
• 24:01
  There are many people in our world today.
• 24:03
  Their challenge is not a gift problem.
• 24:06
  Their challenge is not a laziness problem.
• 24:09
  Their challenge, in fact, is not even a spirituality problem.
• 24:13
  They are gifted to a measure that is worth rewarding.
• 24:18
  They've invested in themselves spiritually, invested in
• 24:21
  themselves intellectually. They sustain such capacity as to
• 24:25
  be celebrated globally. But because they do not know
• 24:29
  that the Kingdom works with mysteries and systems,
• 24:33
  Hallelujah, they've received every other thing aside from the
• 24:38
  grace of visibility, and they found themselves frustrated in
• 24:42
  spite of doing everything they know to be or to do for a great
• 24:48
  life. So the only way people can
• 24:51
  receive from you is to be aware that you are there.
• 24:55
  The second thing I wanted to know as a background to this
• 24:58
  teaching is that God desires visibility for all believers.
• 25:03
  Again, if you don't believe it is the will of God for you to
• 25:08
  gain visibility within your lifetime, then you will not be
• 25:13
  open to receive the blessings that come from this teaching.
• 25:17
  God deserves visibility for believers as we read earlier in
• 25:21
  Deuteronomy chapter 28 and verse one.
• 25:26
  Let me add a few more scriptures to it.
• 25:28
  Matthew chapter 5. Jesus is still teaching.
• 25:30
  Now he begins by when we get to verse 13, He says, You are the
• 25:36
  salt of the earth. Jesus is still teaching, and he
• 25:39
  says, if the salt has lost his several, he says, where which
• 25:43
  shall it be salted? It is hence good for nothing
• 25:46
  except to be cast out and to be trodden or trampled on the foot
• 25:51
  of. Man.
• 25:52
  Verse 14 now says you are the light.
• 25:54
  He didn't say you have the light.
• 25:56
  He says you are the light of the world.
• 25:58
  He likens you to a city that is set on a hill that cannot be
• 26:03
  healed. Then it says neither do men
• 26:05
  light a lamp. In other words, this should not
• 26:08
  be the case. Once a candle is lit, the
• 26:12
  correct position is on top of the bushel or the Candlestick.
• 26:17
  Why? So that it will give light to
• 26:19
  all who are within the house. But it also shows you a
• 26:22
  possibility that a candle can be lit and for whatever reason, by
• 26:27
  demonic manipulation of factors beyond its control, it can be
• 26:31
  hidden and it will not give light.
• 26:35
  Then verse 15 says 16. Now it says let your light.
• 26:39
  I've taught you the word let means permit aloud.
• 26:42
  Do not restrict or constrain. Let your light so shine before
• 26:47
  men that they may see. Take note that they may see your
• 26:52
  good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
• 26:57
  It is God's will for you and I to find visibility.
• 27:02
  We have a corporate destiny as the Church of the Lord Jesus
• 27:05
  Christ to be exalted to a place of visibility.
• 27:08
  My Cat chapter 4, When you read from verse one and two, the
• 27:12
  Bible says it shall come to pass that the mountain of the House
• 27:15
  of the Lord shall be established in the top of other mountains.
• 27:20
  It shall be exalted above the hills and people shall flow to
• 27:25
  it. Verse 2 says many nations, not a
• 27:28
  few nations. They shall come and say, let us
• 27:30
  go up to the mountain of the Lord, the House of the God of
• 27:34
  Jacob, and there He will teach us his ways, we will walk in his
• 27:38
  path, and so on and so forth. So is the heritage of the Saints
• 27:44
  to gain visibility. I recall in Daniel chapter 4
• 27:48
  when you read from verse 20 and 22, Daniel in interpreting
• 27:55
  Deuteronomy chapter 4 and verse 20.
• 27:58
  Did I get that right? Yes.
• 27:59
  Give us 20. We're reading to 22 Belshazzar
• 28:02
  now. I believe in interpreting what
• 28:05
  the king saw back to verse. Beautiful.
• 28:08
  Yeah, that was Daniel as Belshazzar.
• 28:10
  Verse 20. He says the three remember the
• 28:13
  king had a dream and he needed an interpretation to the dream
• 28:17
  and watch what he said. The tree that thou sawest, which
• 28:20
  grew and was strong. Notice the tree grew and was
• 28:25
  strong, whose height reached onto the heavens, and the sights
• 28:29
  thereof to all the earth. Verse 21.
• 28:32
  Whose leaves were fair, and fruit therefore much it was meat
• 28:37
  for all, and under which the beast of the fields dwell, and
• 28:42
  upon whose branches the fowl of the heaven had their habitation.
• 28:46
  Verse 22 It says, That picture is you.
• 28:50
  So a man can be exemplified with that picture of a branch.
• 28:56
  Are we together now? Yes, in his case, eventually it
• 29:00
  was a declaration of doom for his pride, but at least it gave
• 29:04
  us a picture that a man can grow and so extend and find
• 29:09
  visibility. The Bible says the tree reached
• 29:11
  the heavens, the birds of the air came to nest there, the
• 29:15
  animals came to find habitation there.
• 29:17
  And interpreting that dream, he told the king, he said this
• 29:20
  figure is you. You have been so exalted to a
• 29:24
  position, he says you are grown, you have become strong, your
• 29:28
  greatness is grown. It has reached the heavens.
• 29:30
  Your dominion spreads. To the end of the earth, it is
• 29:36
  the will of God for believers in Christ to gain visibility.
• 29:41
  Let's define the word visible or visibility just to put all of us
• 29:45
  in context. What?
• 29:47
  Does it mean to be visible 4 definitions very quickly?
• 29:50
  Are you learning already #1 To be visible means to be capable
• 29:55
  of being seen or perceived by the eye.
• 29:59
  To be visible means to be capable of being seen.
• 30:06
  As much as possible, cultivate the culture of writing in the
• 30:09
  House of God. Don't stand to stare at people
• 30:11
  when they write. The House of God is a place of
• 30:14
  learning, and it's my it's my humble advice, an instruction in
• 30:19
  righteousness to create a culture and a habit of engaging
• 30:24
  with the Word. It's impossible to depend on
• 30:27
  your brain, no matter how powerful.
• 30:29
  It is to store every information you have.
• 30:32
  You will forget, and you'll forget precious things that come
• 30:35
  as keys and answers to your destiny.
• 30:38
  So if this is your first time, well, that's fine and fair.
• 30:41
  But learn as a culture. Learn as a culture, always.
• 30:46
  Right. Always invest in knowledge.
• 30:50
  Don't let pride make you believe you are getting it.
• 30:52
  No, you are not getting it. It takes a while.
• 30:54
  Biology and spirituality teach that.
• 30:56
  It takes a while for knowledge to be distilled and to settle in
• 31:00
  your mind. Praise the name of the Lord.
• 31:02
  So please make sure you are writing.
• 31:03
  Make sure you engage with your writing material electronically
• 31:07
  or, you know, handwritten or in whatever form or fashion it
• 31:11
  comes. It's good culture in the House
• 31:12
  of God. Again, to be visible means to be
• 31:16
  capable of being seen or perceived by the eye.
• 31:21
  So we say a person or a thing is visible to the degree to which
• 31:26
  it is capable of being seen or perceived by the eye.
• 31:31
  Definition #2 What does it mean to be visible?
• 31:34
  It means to be manifest. It means to be obvious.
• 31:40
  It means to be unmistakable. Second definition, to be visible
• 31:48
  means to be manifest. It means to be obvious.
• 31:53
  It means to be unmistakable. You are visible to the degree to
• 31:57
  which you are manifest, not hidden the degree to which it is
• 32:02
  obvious the degree to which you are unmistakable.
• 32:06
  Three. What does it mean to be visible?
• 32:10
  It means to move beyond confinement.
• 32:13
  You are visible to the degree to which restrains, unnecessary
• 32:17
  restraints and restrictions are caught away from your life.
• 32:22
  Beyond confinement, you are visible to the degree to which
• 32:28
  unnecessary restrictions and unnecessary restraints are
• 32:32
  caught away from your life. Final definition.
• 32:37
  And that serves as the anchor for our discussion tonight.
• 32:43
  What does it mean to be visible? In addition to being capable of
• 32:46
  being seen and perceived by the eye?
• 32:49
  In addition to being manifest, obvious, and unmistakable, in
• 32:53
  addition to being beyond confinement #4 To be visible
• 33:01
  means to be able or likely to attract notice or attention.
• 33:07
  To be visible means to be able. Or likely to attract notice or
• 33:15
  attention. You are visible.
• 33:17
  To the degree to which you are able to attract notice or
• 33:22
  attract attention, you have that down very quickly.
• 33:26
  Why visibility? It's important for believers to
• 33:28
  know. Why do we need visibility?
• 33:32
  As believers, as individuals, as Kingdom businesses, as Kingdom
• 33:37
  families, as the body of Christ? Why do we teach and contend for
• 33:43
  visibility? 3 reasons very quickly.
• 33:46
  Number one. The first reason why God and
• 33:49
  Scripture demands, mandates, and encourages that believers desire
• 33:55
  visibility #1 so that our ministry as witnesses and
• 34:01
  Kingdom ambassadors can be effective.
• 34:05
  The first reason to desire visibility is so that our
• 34:09
  ministry as witnesses, our ministry as Kingdom ambassadors
• 34:15
  can and will be effective. We read Matthew chapter 5
• 34:19
  already, 14 to 16. The Bible says if we light a
• 34:22
  candle and we hide it for whatever reason under a bushel
• 34:27
  and it's not kept on a Candlestick or a lampstand, it
• 34:31
  will fail to give light to all who are in the room.
• 34:35
  Why do believers need to contend for visibility?
• 34:38
  Again, so that our ministry, you know right now that we have a
• 34:43
  mandate, we have a ministry to be witnesses and to be Kingdom
• 34:48
  ambassadors. According to Acts chapter 1 and
• 34:50
  verse 8, it says You shall be witnesses unto me in Jerusalem,
• 34:57
  Judea, Samaria, and to the uttermost part of the earth.
• 35:01
  Without visibility, our ministry as witnesses and Kingdom
• 35:05
  ambassadors will not be effective.
• 35:09
  Hallelujah. We have an assignment to be
• 35:12
  light to our world. We have an assignment to be
• 35:15
  promoters of Kingdom culture, and that cannot happen when we
• 35:20
  are in hiding. If we do not have the requisite
• 35:23
  level of visibility, it will become impossible to do the
• 35:28
  ministry of witnesses, Kingdom promoters, Kingdom ambassadors,
• 35:33
  defenders of the faith. Reason #2 Why visibility?
• 35:38
  Why should you and I contend for visibility, especially in the
• 35:41
  times that we live in? Are you ready?
• 35:44
  So that the gospel can reach the unreached, translating to a
• 35:49
  greater harvest. Second reason why we need to
• 35:53
  contend for visibility is so that the gospel can reach the
• 35:58
  unreached, translating to greater harvest.
• 36:04
  So that the gospel, the gospel of salvation, the good news
• 36:08
  about the love of Jesus demonstrated in and through his
• 36:12
  substitutionary sacrifice and its ability to save a man from
• 36:16
  seeing Satan. Guilt, condemnation and
• 36:19
  translate that individual from the Kingdom of darkness to the
• 36:22
  Kingdom of God. Dear Son, it will never happen
• 36:26
  and reach the unreached without visibility.
• 36:29
  It takes beyond evangelism to get the world evangelized.
• 36:33
  We need visibility. Remember I told you it's very
• 36:37
  difficult, if not impossible, to receive anything from you if
• 36:41
  they do not know you are there. Are we together?
• 36:45
  The second reason why we need visibility is so that the gospel
• 36:50
  can reach the unreached, translating to a greater harvest
• 36:56
  reason #3 that becomes our final reason for tonight.
• 37:01
  Why visibility as a reward and a consolation to our knowing, our
• 37:10
  loving, and our serving Jesus. The third reason why we need
• 37:15
  visibility is that it comes as a reward, and it also comes as a
• 37:21
  consolation to our knowing Jesus, to our loving Jesus and
• 37:27
  our serving Jesus. Visibility extending to
• 37:32
  influence is one of the blessings that come with knowing
• 37:36
  Jesus, one of the blessings that come with loving Jesus, and one
• 37:41
  of the blessings that come. With serving Jesus.
• 37:44
  Now listen, you have been taught that we do not love the Lord and
• 37:47
  we do not seek Him just for things.
• 37:49
  We love Him beyond things. But when God gives you
• 37:53
  visibility, it becomes a reward and it becomes a consolation.
• 37:58
  Are we together? Hebrews 11 and verse 6 tells us
• 38:01
  that God is a rewarder and the Bible tells us that the Kingdom
• 38:05
  has benefits. It says bless the Lord, O my
• 38:07
  soul and all that is within me, bless His holy name.
• 38:11
  Bless the Lord O my soul and forget not his benefits.
• 38:16
  Psalm one O 3 and verse 2 forget not his benefits.
• 38:19
  There are rewards in the Kingdom.
• 38:21
  There are tokens, expressions, consolations in the.
• 38:25
  Kingdom I give you an instance. If you come to visit a friend or
• 38:33
  to visit a family, as always, it's most likely that you didn't
• 38:37
  come there to eat. Maybe you came there to pay a
• 38:39
  visit or a business meeting. In fact, let's say a business
• 38:42
  meeting. Sometimes you go for a board
• 38:44
  meeting and you find a little refreshment, no matter how
• 38:47
  light, even if it's just water and a few snacks before you.
• 38:50
  That's not why you are there. You are there to discuss serious
• 38:53
  issues about the board and the people and even the family.
• 38:56
  In many instance they are mindfully not.
• 38:59
  Of. That there needs to be a reward
• 39:01
  and a consolation, and for some it even extends to monetary
• 39:05
  appreciation. Am I right on that?
• 39:08
  As a man of God, when you go to preach somewhere or a music
• 39:11
  minister or whoever it is, there are times that once you are
• 39:14
  done, the people decide to appreciate you in kind or in
• 39:17
  cash or both ways. You are not there for the money.
• 39:21
  You are there to minister to the people.
• 39:23
  But then there are tokens, there are consolations.
• 39:27
  That's how it is with God. God knows that all human beings,
• 39:30
  please listen to my message. The reward system of the
• 39:32
  Kingdom. Human beings are motivated.
• 39:37
  We we go forward by motivation. The way you drive people to
• 39:42
  achieving goals is not just to cast a vision before them.
• 39:46
  You must incentivize them. Even in our work with God,
• 39:50
  there's a promise of heaven, there's a promise of a good
• 39:53
  life, there's a promise of grace, there's a promise of
• 39:55
  dominion. God did not just impose upon us
• 39:59
  to leave the world and make all the sacrifices bend over
• 40:02
  backwards. And he even leaves us with a
• 40:05
  guarantee and a consolation that if for any reason this rewards
• 40:08
  don't happen to you in this life, even when you die, go rest
• 40:12
  assured that even in the life to come, that consolation, that
• 40:16
  reward is there. And upon the strength of that
• 40:19
  consolation, many. Many people have been my tired,
• 40:22
  laughing in pain, not just because they love the Lord, but
• 40:26
  they were motivated by the fact that there was a better promise.
• 40:30
  Are we together? Leadership, one-on-one.
• 40:33
  You never drive people to achieve anything visionary.
• 40:37
  If you cannot #1 cast a vision before them that is compelling
• 40:41
  enough. But #2 there has to be
• 40:43
  incentives, and the greatest incentive is shared success.
• 40:47
  Are we together? Now.
• 40:49
  You cannot motivate the people to follow you indefinitely if
• 40:52
  they cannot see a stake in that vision or in that program or in
• 40:56
  that goal for them. That's how human beings move.
• 41:02
  Very, very important is someone learning now?
• 41:08
  So as we love the Lord, as we know Him, as we love him, as we
• 41:12
  serve. Him, there are rewards and there
• 41:15
  are consolations. One of them, his visibility.
• 41:20
  When God grants a man, when God grants a people, when God grants
• 41:24
  a body of believers visibility, what he's doing, among other
• 41:29
  things like you have learned, is bringing rewards and bringing
• 41:33
  consolation. He's helping to encourage you.
• 41:37
  He's giving you incentives. He's motivating you.
• 41:40
  To see the value Are we together?
• 41:42
  Now praise the name of the Lord. Jesus himself, visionary Jesus,
• 41:51
  loving Jesus, selfless Jesus. In John chapter 17 and verse
• 41:56
  one, he's praying to the Father and he makes a very interesting
• 42:00
  statement. He lifted up his eyes to the
• 42:02
  heaven and said, Father, the hour has come.
• 42:05
  Then he says, glorify now your Son, that your Son may bring
• 42:11
  glory to you. He says glorify your son.
• 42:14
  He was not afraid to ask God to glorify him.
• 42:22
  So when the devil begins to fight your passion for
• 42:24
  visibility, you can encourage yourself with these reasons
• 42:31
  that, number one, my desire for Kingdom visibility is so that my
• 42:35
  ministry as a witness, my ministry as a Kingdom
• 42:39
  ambassador, can be effective #2 so that the gospel through me
• 42:45
  and through the efficiency of my weakness, can reach the
• 42:49
  unreached, translating to a greater harvest.
• 42:52
  And three, that it is not unjust, it is not ungodly, for
• 42:57
  me to desire sincerely in righteousness a reward and a
• 43:01
  consolation for my knowing Jesus, for my loving Jesus, and
• 43:06
  for my serving him. Galatians 124 It says God is
• 43:10
  glorified in a man, and they glorified God in me.
• 43:15
  God can be glorified in a man. Matthew 516 Let your light so
• 43:21
  shine before men, that they may see your good deeds, and glorify
• 43:25
  your Father, which is in heaven. John 15-8 Hearing is our Father
• 43:31
  glorified? When ye bear much fruit, so
• 43:34
  shall you be my disciples. John 1516 You have not chosen
• 43:39
  me, but I have chosen you and ordained you.
• 43:42
  Are we together that you should go and bear fruit, and that your
• 43:46
  fruit should remain? Are we letting already?
• 43:54
  Praise the name of the Lord. So God desires visibility for
• 43:58
  believers. Now listen to me.
• 44:00
  If you ever find yourself seeking visibility or seeking
• 44:04
  influence at any level and it goes outside of the boundary of
• 44:09
  these reasons, your pursuit is already corrupted.
• 44:12
  Let me say that, and this again is I don't want to go ahead of
• 44:17
  myself, but in diagnosing the reason why many people who
• 44:20
  desire influence and desire visibility never find it among
• 44:24
  the many factors may be that your motif is not within the
• 44:30
  scope of these reasons. These are the healthy boundaries
• 44:37
  for desiring visibility. If at any point in your life as
• 44:41
  a believer, you find yourself desiring visibility out of the
• 44:46
  scope of these three reasons, your motif is already corrupted
• 44:52
  and chances are excellent that it will not be by God number
• 44:55
  one, you will not find it. And if you press for it, you
• 44:58
  will route through another door that is not in righteousness.
• 45:01
  And of course, it will come with severe consequences, including
• 45:05
  an eventual downfall. Are we together?
• 45:08
  Praise the name of the Lord. Now, very quickly, I'm going to
• 45:13
  be giving you a few keys. This is really where my heart is
• 45:17
  tonight. I want to share with you a few
• 45:20
  keys, the keys that control visibility.
• 45:24
  These are the keys that walk in partnership with the Spirit of
• 45:28
  grace to release upon a man, a people the hear ye him
• 45:32
  anointing. The grace that can cause a man
• 45:35
  to be heard, the grace that can cause a man to be visible, to
• 45:38
  become a voice, to become an influence.
• 45:41
  Pray in the Spirit for one minute and ask the Lord to put
• 45:47
  your heart whilst you hear that the things you hear would not
• 45:52
  stand against you. Ask the Lord to purge your heart
• 46:00
  and to purge your motif. For many of you, the desire for
• 46:03
  visibility is not new, but because of the corruption that's
• 46:08
  been hidden within your heart for many years and many decades,
• 46:12
  you've done all you know to do and strangely, seems like an
• 46:16
  invisible force has been stopping you from gaining
• 46:19
  visibility. God is giving you explanation.
• 46:22
  He's giving you perspective. Tonight.
• 46:25
  Are you still praying? Shalakataprandes.
• 46:29
  Kebelika pose. In Jesus name we pray.
• 46:38
  Now with every sense of humility.
• 46:40
  I give you a guarantee if you pay attention to these keys that
• 46:44
  I will be unveiling to you by the grace of God, I assure you,
• 46:49
  regardless what the limitations he that to have been as far as
• 46:53
  your visibility is concerned, by the grace of God, these keys
• 46:58
  will help remove those bottlenecks and position you in
• 47:01
  righteousness to a life of lasting visibility.
• 47:05
  Not that you are up to date. That kind of balloon success
• 47:09
  that you are up today and tomorrow you crash down.
• 47:12
  You become a memorial for people.
• 47:15
  That's not what we're advocating.
• 47:17
  Are we together that you rise in righteousness and you stay
• 47:20
  there, shining like a star, shining like a beacon, drawing
• 47:25
  many to Jesus. If that describes you, shout
• 47:28
  Amen. If you're understanding so far,
• 47:31
  shout Amen again. If you're going to put to walk
• 47:34
  everything you're about to learn, shout Amen the loudest.
• 47:38
  Key number one What is the key? To.
• 47:43
  Finding visibility God's way, What is the key?
• 47:47
  To being elevated by God regardless your background,
• 47:50
  regardless the limitations of status and so on and so forth.
• 47:55
  The first key is death to self. Write it down, please.
• 48:00
  The first key, it's a paradox, but it's an interesting one that
• 48:05
  the first key to visibility, are we together is death to self.
• 48:13
  John chapter 3 and verse 30. John 3 and verse 30 Death to
• 48:20
  self. The Bible says he must increase
• 48:23
  the heed in Jesus. It says but I must decrease.
• 48:27
  I like the scripture. It never said I must disappear,
• 48:30
  you are there, but it says I must decrease so that He must
• 48:36
  increase. When this become the anthem of
• 48:39
  your life, lend me your attention please.
• 48:41
  When this becomes the theme of your life, then you are ready
• 48:45
  for visibility. You are ready for God to display
• 48:48
  you like a trophy. Many many people are still alive
• 48:53
  to self even though skilled they are alive to self even though
• 48:57
  gifted, they are alive to self even though intelligent is the
• 49:02
  reason why they do not find access to receiving the hear ye
• 49:07
  him anointing. They pray, they fast, but that
• 49:11
  corruption of self within their heart, the tendencies, there are
• 49:15
  many people hiding self using a Bible, hiding self using prayer,
• 49:21
  hiding self using church. They are just waiting for
• 49:25
  increase and then they throw everything and say finally this
• 49:28
  is what let me tell you this, there is a spiritual immigration
• 49:32
  system in the spirit. It is strict and ruthless.
• 49:36
  You must pass that test to handle that oil.
• 49:40
  Death to self, Death to self means dying to the insatiable
• 49:46
  appetite for Vainglory. Death to self means dying to the
• 49:52
  insatiable appetite for Vainglory.
• 49:56
  You will never experience visibility God's way when there
• 50:00
  is such a hunger and an ungodly desperation for Vainglory.
• 50:07
  What does it mean to die to self, to die to the insatiable
• 50:11
  appetite for Vainglory? I'm telling you, you will.
• 50:15
  You will be surprised how many believers and all kinds of loss
• 50:20
  driven drama fueling flesh and self within their heart are we
• 50:25
  together just hoping and waiting for the day they are announced
• 50:29
  by God. They don't really love God.
• 50:33
  They don't really care about His program.
• 50:36
  They don't really care about church.
• 50:38
  They don't really love the Bible.
• 50:39
  They just found out that is a righteous route to visibility
• 50:44
  and fame. And so you find all kinds of
• 50:47
  false sense of piety, false sense of righteousness, whereas
• 50:52
  there's lust hidden within their heart just waiting for a moment
• 50:56
  that they rise. I pray for you that as you are
• 51:00
  hearing me, May God circumcise your heart.
• 51:04
  We have examined the issue of the heart thoroughly in this
• 51:07
  house, and we have come to the safe conclusion that the heart
• 51:10
  of any man that's not been vetted by God cannot be trusted,
• 51:15
  cannot even. The bearer of the heart does not
• 51:19
  know how deceitful his heart is. He says the heart of man is
• 51:23
  desperately wicked. Are we together now?
• 51:26
  I have taught you here, there are certain temptations that are
• 51:30
  too high and too expensive for certain levels of life.
• 51:34
  So just because you are not a victim of it does not mean you
• 51:37
  are free, and it does not mean the tendency is not in you.
• 51:40
  You've just not been elevated to a point in life where that
• 51:44
  temptation makes sense to you. For instance, there are many
• 51:49
  people who believe they can never take bribe.
• 51:51
  You've never been in a position that needs it.
• 51:53
  You don't even know where it is. Are we together now?
• 51:57
  But when you get to a position where as a chairman you are
• 52:00
  sitting on a board and there are millions and billions flying and
• 52:04
  you can connive any amount to your benefit and close it, you
• 52:08
  have enough intelligence. At that point you will know
• 52:11
  whether you fear God or not. Is someone learning death to
• 52:20
  self? You want God to lift you in an
• 52:24
  undeniable way. You must kill the insatiable
• 52:28
  appetite for Vainglory. What does it mean to die to
• 52:32
  self? To tame an overestimation of
• 52:37
  oneself? Tame like you tame an animal
• 52:40
  control regulate. You must tame the tendency for
• 52:47
  overestimating oneself. Now we are taught to be
• 52:51
  confident but not overconfident. There are people who cannot be
• 52:56
  lifted by God because they are such.
• 52:59
  They are so vulnerable to the temptation of overestimating
• 53:05
  themselves. The Bible says to not consider
• 53:08
  yourself more highly. There is a level God has placed
• 53:12
  you don't find yourself rising beyond that level.
• 53:17
  Are we together? It's often said that when your
• 53:20
  head begins to swell and get big, the crown can no longer
• 53:22
  stay there. The crown was designed for a
• 53:25
  certain size of head. God expects that head to remain
• 53:29
  at that size for the crown to remain.
• 53:31
  But when you expand it unnecessarily, the crown can.
• 53:35
  Unfortunately, the crown will not expand too much the growing
• 53:38
  pride, so it will fall. And when it falls, you no longer
• 53:42
  call king any other thing they call you.
• 53:44
  They are right because there's no crown on your head.
• 53:51
  You want God to lift you. Fight early.
• 53:54
  Now the temptation of overestimating oneself.
• 54:00
  And I'm not, I'm not. There are many parameters.
• 54:03
  Listen, let me teach you something tonight.
• 54:05
  There are many parameters you can use to test. 1 of it is a
• 54:10
  desire to hear people talk to you about you.
• 54:14
  Have you seen people like that? You sit in a group of people and
• 54:16
  all you want, you want to be the center of attraction.
• 54:20
  Talk to me about me. What do you think people are
• 54:25
  saying about? Do the people really like?
• 54:26
  Once everything becomes about you, you are already falling
• 54:31
  prey. The temptation of overestimating
• 54:35
  yourself. Who is learning death to self?
• 54:42
  What does it mean to die to self?
• 54:44
  To die to the obsession for fame and over celebration.
• 54:52
  The obsession for fame and over celebration.
• 54:57
  The obsession for fame and over celebration.
• 55:00
  My God. God is ministering to someone.
• 55:05
  The obsession for fame and over celebration Let me tell you this
• 55:14
  celebrate good things in your life but make sure you put a cup
• 55:19
  on them otherwise they will lead you from one side of success
• 55:24
  into the same pit you just. Came out from Is someone
• 55:27
  learning now? Death to self.
• 55:31
  I have told you people here many times and let me repeat it again
• 55:34
  many years ago, God in warning me and teaching me about the
• 55:38
  power of death to self. He said, Son, if you will let
• 55:41
  men see me, there is nothing I will not give you.
• 55:45
  And I'm proposing that template to someone.
• 55:48
  Get to a point in your life early enough where you truly die
• 55:53
  to self, not by professing it. Now our personalities can be
• 55:58
  very different for this Kingdom. Disposition is your is your
• 56:03
  healthiest posture as far as becoming a champion is
• 56:07
  concerned. The insatiable appetite for
• 56:11
  Vainglory it extends to wanting to use things around you for
• 56:19
  validation. There are people who have such a
• 56:22
  hunger for validation. They can kill for validation,
• 56:27
  They can betray for validation. They don't care who you are.
• 56:32
  Anything to flaunt them. They are interested in it.
• 56:35
  No, you can't be great that way, Not God's way.
• 56:39
  Can I tell you the truth? I've learned something in life
• 56:42
  by experience. Sometimes it's interesting.
• 56:46
  Allow people underestimate you, then let your results shock
• 56:50
  them. Did you hear what I said?
• 56:54
  Don't be too quick to defend your status and your level.
• 56:59
  It's all right to be so on a zooming until your works bail
• 57:02
  you out. So that's the professor.
• 57:05
  So that is the consultant. So that is the woman.
• 57:09
  So that is the wife of so, so, so and so.
• 57:11
  That is the husband of so, so and so.
• 57:13
  You mean that man is the CEO of that company and you see him
• 57:16
  jumping in the House of God? I used to think he's some
• 57:19
  ordinary person somewhere. When they say turn and greet
• 57:22
  your neighbor, he even calls me Sir.
• 57:26
  Now I'm seeing his picture somewhere and I'm seeing that
• 57:29
  this man is the owner of this conglomerate.
• 57:31
  My God is a beautiful thing. When people underestimate you.
• 57:35
  And then they have to say sorry many times in their mind because
• 57:39
  they now see the Son of man in power and glory.
• 57:41
  But when you go around telling people I am king of kings, they
• 57:44
  will say who sent you? Mordecai you are destined for
• 57:50
  greatness. But let the king decide to put
• 57:53
  you on his horse. It is true that you help the
• 57:56
  king, but if you carry his horse they will jail you.
• 57:59
  Allow the king to decide your season of honor by himself.
• 58:03
  Imagine if Mordecai went around telling people this king is a
• 58:06
  wicked and stupid man. I saved his life.
• 58:09
  Did you ever? Hear that?
• 58:10
  There was a man that said I'm the one who is me.
• 58:13
  My name is Modekai. Forget that I'm at the gate.
• 58:15
  Is the wickedness of these patients I'm supposed to be
• 58:19
  where I'm at? No.
• 58:23
  We live in a world where we are under pressure.
• 58:26
  I'm the one paying. His goof is just for you to
• 58:28
  know. You see that car?
• 58:31
  I'm the one who bought it for that woman.
• 58:33
  In case I just. It was in my spirit to just tell
• 58:35
  you it's a lie. It can't be the Holy Spirit.
• 58:38
  No Sir, no Sir, it's your pride and your gullibility for
• 58:42
  Vainglory. I hope you like what I'm saying
• 58:49
  already. This is just .1.
• 58:51
  No, this is .1. Death to self father.
• 58:56
  Kill that tendency in me. There are many of you, the
• 59:00
  number of people who know your bank account by yourself, half
• 59:04
  of the armed robbers around your life who can steal it was with
• 59:07
  your own mouth. You told them your amount.
• 59:11
  There's something I want to say, but I don't know if I hope I
• 59:14
  don't sound proud. I just had 1 billion transferred
• 59:17
  to my account and someone said say it again.
• 59:19
  How much? What bank say?
• 59:21
  I have some in access, I have some in Zenith.
• 59:23
  By the next day, your money disappears.
• 59:25
  You contributed with the devil in bringing about your
• 59:29
  destruction. Who is Lenny death to self a
• 59:35
  possible if I keep quiet this world there.
• 59:37
  If you have it, show it. That's why those who show it
• 59:40
  foolishly end up to the ground. Because you see, let me tell you
• 59:44
  something about God announcing a man.
• 59:46
  He prepares you for the attacks first before he announces you.
• 59:50
  When you announce yourself, men are aware and you do not know
• 59:55
  that it's easier to be successful than to stay
• 59:58
  successful. The cheapest part of success is
• 1:00:02
  becoming it. The hardest part is remaining
• 1:00:05
  there, because the rules of engagement change when you
• 1:00:09
  become successful. All of a sudden your shoe has a
• 1:00:11
  problem. All of a sudden your words have
• 1:00:14
  a problem. All of a sudden you rub
• 1:00:16
  somebody's hand. You say you slapped me, pay me
• 1:00:19
  for slapping me the head I've always touched.
• 1:00:22
  Now because you have money, you get into trouble.
• 1:00:24
  There are nuances that you have no idea of that accompanies
• 1:00:28
  success. Let God train you and create a
• 1:00:31
  Garrison before He announces you death to self who is learning
• 1:00:38
  tonight. Vainglory, an overestimation of
• 1:00:50
  oneself, an obsession for fame and over celebration.
• 1:00:57
  Let me tell you, ladies and gentlemen, the man, the woman
• 1:00:59
  hearing me tonight, who sustains the grace to kill these
• 1:01:03
  tendencies is one who is ready to be lifted by God in a way
• 1:01:07
  that no power and no force can stop.
• 1:01:10
  To the man who is full of self. To the man who is full of
• 1:01:14
  yourself. You don't need an attack.
• 1:01:16
  That state is already your attack.
• 1:01:20
  Satan does not need to attack you.
• 1:01:22
  You have helped him do the job, he does not need to do anything.
• 1:01:25
  Your fall is imminent, but I'm praying for you in Jesus name.
• 1:01:30
  Some of you came from backgrounds, now look at me
• 1:01:32
  please. You see the temptation to be
• 1:01:36
  alive to self. Sometimes it's not about being
• 1:01:39
  an evil person, sometimes in truth it's a product of our
• 1:01:43
  backgrounds. When you come from a family, now
• 1:01:46
  look up please. Sometimes we come from families
• 1:01:48
  where because people have failed too much around you.
• 1:01:51
  When you make it, you want to slam it on the face of
• 1:01:54
  everybody. Are we together?
• 1:01:57
  You want to rub it infest that I have arrived in Africa or
• 1:02:01
  Nigeria, We use this slang, are blown.
• 1:02:05
  So people say are blown. Now if you doubt me, see my car,
• 1:02:08
  doubt me again, see my house, doubt me, see what I'm wearing.
• 1:02:13
  If you doubt me, what I do to you will remind you that I'm now
• 1:02:16
  in a position of influence. There are many battles that are
• 1:02:21
  unnecessary if you die to self. Oh, were you alone at God, nice
• 1:02:30
  surrender. Oh, you alone at God.
• 1:02:37
  Nice surrender. What does it mean to die to
• 1:02:41
  self? To have a desire that projects
• 1:02:43
  Jesus beyond yourself? To have a desire that projects
• 1:02:48
  Jesus beyond yourself? To tame the appetite?
• 1:02:53
  To desire the praises of men beyond?
• 1:02:56
  Once it goes beyond a certain proportion, it is your
• 1:02:59
  responsibility to stop it. Now look at me, how many of you
• 1:03:05
  have seen, with all due respect now to politicians, how many of
• 1:03:08
  you have seen a lot of politicians during their
• 1:03:10
  lifetime as politicians, whether governors, whether senators,
• 1:03:14
  everybody including those who hates them, Yes Sir, chairman,
• 1:03:18
  they greet the man and single kinds of praises.
• 1:03:21
  And even when some of them know they are not doing a good job,
• 1:03:24
  they are already is like a dopamine that something has
• 1:03:28
  happened to them. And before you know it, eight
• 1:03:31
  years or whatever number of years, then the man loses
• 1:03:34
  election or another senator comes, another House member.
• 1:03:37
  Can you imagine sometimes just one week old after the losses,
• 1:03:40
  the same people who said chairman will pass them at the
• 1:03:43
  airport and not greet them. You've seen it happen.
• 1:03:47
  I tell you, many politicians, with all due respect, are some
• 1:03:49
  of the loneliest and depressed people because they've spent
• 1:03:53
  years, decades in falsehood. People clapping for you
• 1:03:58
  chairman, as soon as they lock the door, they say this man, he
• 1:04:00
  will soon go down. And as soon as you lose the
• 1:04:05
  election, even before they sway in your successor, they've left
• 1:04:09
  you already because the people only love themselves through
• 1:04:13
  those praises they sing for you. So a wise man begins to prepare
• 1:04:16
  for the future now by building your life outside of your
• 1:04:20
  titles. Do you hear what I said?
• 1:04:22
  Build your life outside of your titles because who you are
• 1:04:26
  remains office can go whatever can go.
• 1:04:30
  But who you are, if you are a good person, people will still
• 1:04:33
  call you after 30 days. My chairman we are not.
• 1:04:36
  You are not this boy. You are my chairman.
• 1:04:39
  Have you seen people like that? You are still my president, you
• 1:04:42
  are still my principal, You are still my boss.
• 1:04:44
  You know why? Because the loyalty was built
• 1:04:47
  intrinsically. Who is learning now?
• 1:04:56
  So all my dear people who come up here testifying, this message
• 1:04:59
  is good for you as God is lifting you now.
• 1:05:01
  Learn it early. Don't tie your increase.
• 1:05:04
  And it's a terrible thing if the respect of men is tied only to
• 1:05:09
  your title in leadership, we call it positional leadership.
• 1:05:13
  You are in trouble. You are in big trouble because
• 1:05:16
  if anything threatens that title, so goes your loyalty.
• 1:05:19
  It's not real, it's a fake life, death to self.
• 1:05:30
  If all I have is Jesus, I've got something more than gold, I will
• 1:05:37
  tell it to my world. Jesus is more than gold.
• 1:05:43
  Truly. If all I have is Jesus, I've got
• 1:05:48
  something more than gold. I will tell it to my world.
• 1:05:54
  Jesus, it might build my life and my reputation around Joshua
• 1:06:02
  Selman or around Koinonia or around Apostle.
• 1:06:06
  I'm in trouble when you live a miserable life.
• 1:06:09
  Now if all you have is Jesus, you've got something more than
• 1:06:20
  gold. Will you tell it to your world?
• 1:06:29
  Hallelujah, I'm praying for you sincerely from my heart,
• 1:06:34
  sincerely from my heart. Every tendency that came from,
• 1:06:38
  whether your family background came from your, your failure of
• 1:06:42
  the past competitive spirit, the desire to outshine, the desire
• 1:06:48
  to make a name. Let me tell them, Let them see
• 1:06:51
  me so that they will know I'm not a small person.
• 1:06:54
  Can I announce to you that battle is a foolish man's
• 1:06:57
  battle? It's unnecessary.
• 1:06:59
  You don't hide light. Are we together?
• 1:07:01
  If you are great, you are great. If you are rich, you are rich.
• 1:07:06
  If you are intelligent, you are intelligent.
• 1:07:08
  If you are foolish, you are foolish.
• 1:07:10
  You can change, but everybody can see who you are.
• 1:07:12
  There's no point faking what is obvious.
• 1:07:16
  There are battles you need to get out of early enough.
• 1:07:19
  Conserve your energy for the future. 1 of it is the battle of
• 1:07:23
  a competitive spirit, the battle of overestimating yourself.
• 1:07:29
  Are we together? There are people who will never
• 1:07:31
  be part of any group if they will not be the leader there.
• 1:07:34
  No, no. If I'm going to be the center of
• 1:07:37
  attraction, then you are talking to me.
• 1:07:39
  Now there are ladies who cannot be in the midst of 3 or 4
• 1:07:42
  ladies. No, they have to be talking
• 1:07:44
  about them. There are men like that.
• 1:07:47
  Unfortunately, I don't know how they got there.
• 1:07:53
  You see that? Don't know how they got there.
• 1:07:58
  Behave like women, gather. Rather, they just want people to
• 1:08:03
  sing, talk everything about you. You know, I'm this.
• 1:08:06
  Just to let you know, I know you are not aware, but have you
• 1:08:09
  heard of the chairman of this board?
• 1:08:11
  Well, by the message of God, you are still proud.
• 1:08:14
  You are still proud. You are just using church
• 1:08:17
  language. You are still proud.
• 1:08:21
  We, we wrap our pride, our pride with a lot of English is still
• 1:08:26
  pride. Hallelujah, believe what I'm
• 1:08:36
  telling you. I know what I'm saying.
• 1:08:38
  Die to self and watch the lifter lift you.
• 1:08:42
  Die to self and watch the exalter exalt you.
• 1:08:46
  Die to self and see God open doors that no man can shut.
• 1:08:53
  Take my heart and mould it. Take my mind, transform it.
• 1:09:08
  Take my will. Transform it to your to your
• 1:09:16
  alone. Place your hand on your chest in
• 1:09:24
  one minute and talk to the Lord. You alone, you and your Maker.
• 1:09:27
  Father, you are the only one who knows the tendencies that are
• 1:09:30
  locked up in this house. I don't want to hide it again.
• 1:09:33
  I don't want to pretend and disgrace my destiny in the
• 1:09:36
  future. Walk upon my heart.
• 1:09:39
  Where is the the vain glory hiding?
• 1:09:42
  Expose it and. Kill it.
• 1:09:43
  Oh God. Where's the competitive spirit
• 1:09:48
  hiding? Are you praying outside?
• 1:09:51
  Pray online? Pray as a preacher?
• 1:09:53
  Pray. Don't say I'm a man of God.
• 1:09:57
  As a businessman, pray. That's where jealousy comes
• 1:10:01
  from. That's where desiring the
• 1:10:03
  downfall of others comes from. It comes from a bitter spirit.
• 1:10:09
  You frown when you see others rising.
• 1:10:12
  You frown when you see doors being open for others.
• 1:10:15
  It's a cancer that can die. It's treatable in its presence.
• 1:10:22
  One minute you are still praying.
• 1:10:24
  Walk upon my tendencies. Let me die to self, O God and
• 1:10:32
  unhealthy of estimation of myself.
• 1:10:35
  Let it die your God. It's a tendency that may have
• 1:10:44
  been around your life for a long time.
• 1:10:47
  Don't feel condemned, but this is the right place to deal with
• 1:10:50
  it. Deal with it as a man of God
• 1:10:53
  before it tears you and your ministering to pieces.
• 1:10:56
  Deal with it as a businessman. Deal with it as a spouse before
• 1:11:01
  it tears you. Deal with it as a young man
• 1:11:04
  before it tears you into pieces. Deal with it as a young woman
• 1:11:08
  before it tears your home into pieces.
• 1:11:18
  The insatiable appetite for fame, glory.
• 1:11:21
  Kill it to God. The obsession for fame and over
• 1:11:26
  celebration. Kill it to God.
• 1:11:29
  Competitive tendencies. The desire to outshine.
• 1:11:34
  The desire to truncate others down.
• 1:11:37
  So that I'll be seen alone. Kill it to God.
• 1:11:47
  In Jesus mighty name we pray. #2 You want to access the grace for
• 1:11:53
  visibility to hear ye him. Anointing only comes to those
• 1:11:58
  who walk with the Spirit to die to self.
• 1:12:00
  Inexperience #2 The second key that grants you access to this
• 1:12:06
  grace is enlightenment and transformation.
• 1:12:11
  You want to experience visibility.
• 1:12:13
  You must be enlightened and you must be transformed.
• 1:12:17
  Isaiah 61 amplified please. Isaiah chapter 60 and verse one.
• 1:12:25
  Enlightenment and transformation it says arise from the
• 1:12:29
  depression and the prostration in which circumstances have kept
• 1:12:34
  you. It says rise to a new life.
• 1:12:37
  Then it says shine, be radiant with the glory of the Lord, for
• 1:12:41
  your light has come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon
• 1:12:46
  you. Enlightenment, enlightenment.
• 1:12:50
  What does this mean? Acquiring knowledge that
• 1:12:53
  translates to superior belief systems?
• 1:12:56
  Write that down. Enlightenment and transformation
• 1:13:00
  refers to acquiring useful knowledge, strategic knowledge
• 1:13:06
  that translates to superior belief systems in Genesis
• 1:13:13
  chapter 1314 to 17 Acquiring useful knowledge, strategic
• 1:13:20
  knowledge that translates to affecting, influencing your
• 1:13:25
  belief system. And the Lord said unto Abraham,
• 1:13:29
  After that he was separated from lot.
• 1:13:32
  Lift now thy eyes and look from the place where thou art.
• 1:13:37
  Look northwards, southwards, eastwards and westwards. 15 He
• 1:13:42
  says For all the land which thou seest, your possession is
• 1:13:48
  connected to your ability to see your perception.
• 1:13:53
  I will give you. I won't just give you what you
• 1:13:56
  want. I can give you what your mindset
• 1:13:59
  can receive. Hallelujah.
• 1:14:03
  The real hand that receives your blessing is not this hand.
• 1:14:07
  The real hand that receives is called your mindset.
• 1:14:10
  If your mindset is small, that's all it can receive.
• 1:14:15
  The official channel for receiving possibilities into
• 1:14:19
  your life is not your physical hand, it is your mindset.
• 1:14:24
  If your mindset is the size of a spoon, it will receive only what
• 1:14:28
  is equivalent to its size. If your mindset is the size of a
• 1:14:32
  large vessel, then you'll be able to receive possibilities
• 1:14:36
  the size of your mindset. Someone say enlightenment.
• 1:14:41
  Shout it like you're hearing, say enlightenment, say
• 1:14:44
  transformation. There are many believers, even
• 1:14:48
  spiritual people, who love the Lord.
• 1:14:50
  But when it has to do with the issue of acquiring useful
• 1:14:54
  knowledge and then using that knowledge as a tool to sponsor
• 1:14:59
  Kingdom compliant transformation, sustaining
• 1:15:03
  superior belief systems, they fall short.
• 1:15:06
  And they find out that although they love God, they never rise
• 1:15:10
  to positions of notoriety in life.
• 1:15:12
  Then they blame their spiritual life for that state.
• 1:15:16
  Or they say God kept them down because he wants them to be
• 1:15:20
  righteous. Poor theology.
• 1:15:23
  If you remain down, it is usually because you have not
• 1:15:28
  contended for the requisite level of light.
• 1:15:31
  That's translated to a superior belief system.
• 1:15:34
  I'm telling you, Psalm 78 and verse 41, the popular scripture
• 1:15:41
  in this house, the Bible says they'll turn back and tempted
• 1:15:45
  God. It says they limited the only
• 1:15:49
  one of Israel. As mighty as God is, as
• 1:15:53
  omnipotent as God is, He can be limited by the belief system of
• 1:15:57
  a man. Can I tell you this?
• 1:15:59
  God can desire for a life of grace and glory, power, wisdom,
• 1:16:03
  influence. But if your mindset cannot host
• 1:16:06
  that possibility, if it cannot conceive that as a reality, that
• 1:16:10
  statement, that desire will only remain A prophetic reality that
• 1:16:15
  will never come to pass. Koinonia will only rise and stop
• 1:16:21
  at my level of belief. Your organization will only rise
• 1:16:27
  and stop at the level of your belief.
• 1:16:29
  This is true when God wants to help a man.
• 1:16:34
  I told you last week, He helps men by sending them His Word,
• 1:16:38
  the word that expands your horizon.
• 1:16:42
  It helps you to see life clearer, to sustain a more
• 1:16:45
  superior belief system. Now please look at me.
• 1:16:48
  A superior belief system does not mean a western belief
• 1:16:52
  system. When I talk of superior, I don't
• 1:16:55
  mean superior just in terms of its technological compliancy.
• 1:16:59
  Are we together or belief system as per resident within a
• 1:17:03
  geography? I'm talking of belief systems
• 1:17:06
  that are with respect to the word of God.
• 1:17:11
  Someone who was born and bred in the West will be by far more
• 1:17:16
  sociologically enlightened than someone say who was born and
• 1:17:19
  bred in Africa for very obvious reasons.
• 1:17:22
  But that person may not be enlightened as far as Kingdom is
• 1:17:25
  concerned or transformation as far as the word is concerned.
• 1:17:29
  So when I talk about being enlightened, I'm not saying
• 1:17:33
  being more Western for want of word.
• 1:17:36
  I'm not just meaning be more academic.
• 1:17:38
  You can be more academic and yet not transformed.
• 1:17:42
  Transformation for the believers with respect to the word of.
• 1:17:45
  God. Are you understanding me so far?
• 1:17:49
  So don't confuse the fact that you've lived abroad for a long
• 1:17:51
  time. It may even be the reason why
• 1:17:53
  you are not transformed. Are we together?
• 1:18:00
  Enlightenment. The one who desires to rise, the
• 1:18:04
  one who desires to gain visibility is the one who will
• 1:18:07
  label with the Holy Spirit. To go for structured knowledge
• 1:18:12
  that translates to a belief system is superior belief
• 1:18:16
  system. I have taught you in this house
• 1:18:18
  that there's what we call a winner's mindset.
• 1:18:21
  Still remember and there's what they call a loser's mindset.
• 1:18:26
  Refer to those messages. I preached a message in Ghana
• 1:18:29
  called something about a winner. I can't remember the title.
• 1:18:33
  Now you can find it on Colonial Global and listen to it.
• 1:18:38
  I've taught you on the mentality of a victor.
• 1:18:40
  Listen to it. Nobody's born a winner by
• 1:18:43
  default. Even if you are born from a
• 1:18:46
  winning family, you're not born a winner by default.
• 1:18:48
  Are we Together? You will have to reengineer your
• 1:18:51
  understanding and begin to contend structurally for the
• 1:18:56
  kind of word compliant knowledge that eventually translates to a
• 1:19:00
  superior belief system. Is not a gift, it's a reward.
• 1:19:04
  You buy the truth. I've taught you there are
• 1:19:07
  currencies you used to buy the truth.
• 1:19:09
  The currency of humility, the currency of adaptation, the
• 1:19:13
  currency of patience, the currency of hunger.
• 1:19:17
  These are the currencies by which we buy the truth and then
• 1:19:20
  we sell it. Not.
• 1:19:23
  Don't tell me I am Yoruba. That's not my question for you.
• 1:19:27
  Don't tell me I'm Ebo. Don't tell me I'm house out.
• 1:19:29
  Don't tell me I'm S S Don't tell me I'm middle belt and I'm
• 1:19:33
  Northern. Don't tell me I'm Spanish.
• 1:19:35
  Don't tell me I'm Chinese. Don't tell me I'm Russian.
• 1:19:37
  You are just describing different geographic locations.
• 1:19:42
  Your victory will be dependent on what culture you have
• 1:19:46
  subscribed to. And let me propose to you the
• 1:19:48
  most superior culture, the word culture.
• 1:19:52
  It will turn a Yoruba man as much as it will turn an Ebo man,
• 1:19:56
  as much as it will turn a Chinese person, an American, a
• 1:19:59
  Ghanaian Swahili. It doesn't matter where the Word
• 1:20:04
  of God sustains equal value in every region, my son says.
• 1:20:10
  Pay attention to my words. Incline your ears to my sayings.
• 1:20:14
  Do not let them depart from your mouth.
• 1:20:16
  Keep them in the midst of your heart.
• 1:20:18
  Then it says they are life to those who find them unhealth to
• 1:20:23
  their flesh. Let me lead you to make a
• 1:20:24
  confession. Say in the name of Jesus like
• 1:20:28
  you're speaking to your destiny. Say in the name of Jesus, I
• 1:20:31
  obtain grace. To go for strategic knowledge, I
• 1:20:37
  obtain grace to contend for a superior belief system.
• 1:20:45
  Yes Sir, Yes Sir. What does the word say?
• 1:20:49
  That must become your template. What does the word of God say?
• 1:20:54
  Not what I feel, not just what my culture says.
• 1:20:57
  What does the word of God say? For instance, the mentality of a
• 1:21:05
  loser says fight people, tear down people, tell lies, push
• 1:21:10
  people until you come to the top.
• 1:21:13
  The mentality of a winner says another man's life is not the
• 1:21:16
  reason for your failure, take personal responsibility while
• 1:21:20
  loving everybody around you and grow that love is a more
• 1:21:23
  excellent way. A winner's mindset thrives on
• 1:21:26
  hate and competition and jealousy.
• 1:21:28
  A winner's mindset says love never fails, The choice is
• 1:21:32
  yours. Are we together?
• 1:21:37
  The Bible says a merry heart do it good, like medicine.
• 1:21:40
  Are we together? It says what a broken spirit can
• 1:21:42
  dry up the bones. The choice is yours.
• 1:21:47
  A winners mindset says my destiny is dependent on me and
• 1:21:51
  God not another person, not my background.
• 1:21:55
  So I'm not going to indefinitely keep blaming parents and
• 1:21:58
  government and everyone for my state.
• 1:22:01
  You may be justified until light comes.
• 1:22:04
  The daylight comes, your excuses have no validity.
• 1:22:06
  Again, your excuses die officially.
• 1:22:10
  The day knowledge comes to you in the days of ignorance God
• 1:22:14
  will overlook. But the day true light comes,
• 1:22:17
  your excuses have no validity, no potency, no power in the
• 1:22:21
  spirit, a superior belief system.
• 1:22:24
  Is it alright if I request that you lay your hands and just pray
• 1:22:28
  in one minute and say Lord walk upon my mind?
• 1:22:32
  Something about my belief system is keeping me poor?
• 1:22:36
  Something about my belief system is keeping me without friends.
• 1:22:39
  Someone pray. Something about my belief system
• 1:22:42
  is scheduling attacks and fights and quarrels in my life.
• 1:22:46
  Maybe it's subconscious. I'm not even aware that I'm
• 1:22:50
  living in the reality of this programming's.
• 1:22:52
  I'm not too proud. Walk upon my mind.
• 1:22:55
  A serious believer who came to church to be transformed.
• 1:22:58
  Go ahead and pray. Walk upon my mind, Walk upon my
• 1:23:02
  mind, Walk upon my mind. Cry unto the Lord.
• 1:23:08
  Something about my belief system is making me frustrate my
• 1:23:12
  children. Something about my belief system
• 1:23:15
  is making me frustrate my workers.
• 1:23:18
  Something about my belief system makes me create a pungent and a
• 1:23:22
  hostile atmosphere. I'm ready to drop and divorce
• 1:23:29
  every wrong satanic Antichrist anti destiny mindset and embrace
• 1:23:34
  that which is word compliant and embrace that which is
• 1:23:38
  provisionary to embrace that which is pro destiny in Jesus
• 1:23:45
  name. We pray very quickly.
• 1:23:47
  Let me give you #3 what is the third key for the one who
• 1:23:51
  desires to contend and manifest Kingdom visibility?
• 1:23:56
  Are you ready? Value and productivity.
• 1:23:59
  Please write that down. Proverbs 2229.
• 1:24:02
  The third ingredient as far as Kingdom visibility is concerned
• 1:24:07
  is value and productivity. There's no visibility to the man
• 1:24:13
  who does not insist on being valuable and productive.
• 1:24:18
  CS thou a man diligent in his business, The Bible says that
• 1:24:23
  man shall stand before kings, that he shall not stand before
• 1:24:29
  mean men. All kinds of value, spiritual
• 1:24:33
  value, intellectual value, and so on and so forth.
• 1:24:37
  I've taught you in this House, I think it was last week or week
• 1:24:40
  before that when we talk about value.
• 1:24:43
  Please lend me your attention for a minute.
• 1:24:45
  In the Kingdom, when we talk about value, we mean two things
• 1:24:47
  #1 the dexterity of your virtue and then #2 your technical
• 1:24:54
  intellectual. Are we together or transactional
• 1:24:57
  skills? So when we talk about value for
• 1:25:00
  the believer, we're not just going to brain fest.
• 1:25:03
  We're talking about your spirit. If you are an intelligent,
• 1:25:07
  wicked person, you are not valuable in the Kingdom.
• 1:25:10
  So value in the Kingdom begins with a rich capture of the fruit
• 1:25:17
  of the spirit character. We call it the one who presses
• 1:25:22
  for Kingdom character. That's the one who the Bible
• 1:25:25
  calls valuable. And then in addition to that,
• 1:25:28
  you now have your transaction, your transactional skills,
• 1:25:32
  transactable skills. Now write this down, please.
• 1:25:37
  What is value and productivity? I wrote a few things down here.
• 1:25:41
  Let me read it for you quickly #1 superior solutions that
• 1:25:46
  relate to and solve human needs. That's what we define by value
• 1:25:51
  and productivity. Superior solutions that relate
• 1:25:55
  to and solve human needs. Don't tell me you are valuable.
• 1:26:00
  Show me how superior your solutions are by defining for me
• 1:26:05
  how they relate to and how they solve human needs.
• 1:26:10
  If what you call value is not solving anyone's problem, you
• 1:26:13
  will not be rewarded, unfortunately.
• 1:26:16
  So value and productivity #1 it refers to superior solutions
• 1:26:22
  that relate to and solve human needs.
• 1:26:30
  There are certain demands that you must subscribe to if you
• 1:26:34
  want to be valuable. I'll read a few of them for you.
• 1:26:37
  You want to be valuable. You want to be productive.
• 1:26:41
  It demands skill. It demands training.
• 1:26:47
  It demands on learning and relearning.
• 1:26:52
  It also demands upgrading to best practices.
• 1:26:56
  Let me repeat myself slowly that you want to be valuable and
• 1:27:00
  productive. There are demands.
• 1:27:03
  It will demand skill. It will demand training.
• 1:27:09
  It will demand on learning and relearning.
• 1:27:13
  Don't say I studied this and that in school and it's not
• 1:27:16
  helping you. It's not adding anything to you.
• 1:27:19
  You can reinvent yourself, you can unlearn and you can relearn.
• 1:27:25
  It also demands upgrading to best practices.
• 1:27:29
  Now let me tell you this, this is more important for business
• 1:27:32
  people. Just because you like doing
• 1:27:36
  things the way you are doing does not mean those who need you
• 1:27:39
  like it that way. You have to respect best
• 1:27:42
  practices. Are we together?
• 1:27:45
  Many years ago there was a great restaurant that I like to eat.
• 1:27:49
  You know, sometimes when we just have the resources who go there
• 1:27:52
  to eat. And one day I was passing on my
• 1:27:56
  way home and then I could look through a little path.
• 1:28:00
  That's where they wash the plates and do all the other
• 1:28:04
  things that they don't do in the, you know, And I stood there
• 1:28:07
  for a minute in shock. I watched what was going on
• 1:28:10
  behind the scene. I wanted to throw up.
• 1:28:14
  I'm not exaggerating. I said, my goodness, my God,
• 1:28:17
  when I saw what those people were doing, I wouldn't tell you
• 1:28:20
  what I saw, but just know that what I saw was not good.
• 1:28:24
  It was some of the most unhealthy restaurant practice I
• 1:28:28
  can I can think of from that day.
• 1:28:31
  I didn't enter that restaurant again.
• 1:28:36
  Hallelujah. Say best practices.
• 1:28:40
  You're a doctor and the last two patients that you treated, you
• 1:28:45
  spent over 2 minutes looking for veins piercing every part of
• 1:28:50
  your body. Best practices my friend.
• 1:28:53
  You go and upgrade yourself. Nobody's doubting your
• 1:28:57
  profession, but gain mastery. Are we together?
• 1:29:01
  You're a businessman. You come to your store to buy
• 1:29:04
  something. Everything they ask you, you are
• 1:29:06
  not sure you have it. You have to check.
• 1:29:10
  Do you have Fanta and Malt? I'm not sure about malt.
• 1:29:12
  Let me check. How about this one?
• 1:29:14
  Let me check again. And the person says this man is
• 1:29:16
  not serious. It is your own shop.
• 1:29:19
  You bought the things. But because of carelessness,
• 1:29:22
  there's something called best practice.
• 1:29:24
  It's the culture of the great. Who is learning now?
• 1:29:29
  You want to be valuable and productive.
• 1:29:32
  You have to contend for skill training on learning and
• 1:29:38
  relearning and then upgrade to best practices.
• 1:29:41
  Now, let me tell you this. Furthermore, another demand for
• 1:29:45
  being valuable. I hope you are learning.
• 1:29:48
  Being valuable and productive demands a skillful listen and
• 1:29:54
  intelligent presentation of your solutions.
• 1:29:58
  It's not enough for your solutions to be superior.
• 1:30:01
  There must be a skillful and intelligent presentation of
• 1:30:06
  those solutions. A skillful and intelligent
• 1:30:15
  presentation of your solutions, whether it's preaching, whether
• 1:30:19
  it's doing business, whether it's running a school.
• 1:30:22
  Can I tell you your presentation can add weight to your value or
• 1:30:28
  it can, it can diminish the power of your value.
• 1:30:32
  I wrote something here connected to that.
• 1:30:33
  Please listen. A great solution presented
• 1:30:38
  poorly will hardly be received and rewarded.
• 1:30:43
  A great solution, very great solution, but poorly presented
• 1:30:49
  will hardly be received and rewarded.
• 1:30:53
  This is true. Now let me say this impassive.
• 1:31:03
  Many years ago we used to buy Suya by the roadside.
• 1:31:10
  And after you order whatever you know, just they, they bring out
• 1:31:18
  this newspaper and sometimes when you see that newspaper, you
• 1:31:24
  see the date. Only God knows how many hands
• 1:31:28
  have rubbed on it and read the thing and they slap the tin left
• 1:31:33
  and right and drop it at the side.
• 1:31:37
  And then they are transferring your stake or whatever it is
• 1:31:43
  there and you are just hungry. You are, you are happy that I'm
• 1:31:47
  grateful and only God knows where that thing is coming from.
• 1:31:51
  Then they just wrap the thing, add pepper on it and pass it to
• 1:31:55
  you. And sometimes you eat everything
• 1:31:58
  and the meat can be stocked with the newspaper.
• 1:32:00
  You just draw everything and eat it like that.
• 1:32:03
  Trust in your digestive system. You see, let me tell you this.
• 1:32:09
  Now, of course, if that's your business, maybe this is a call,
• 1:32:13
  why don't you look for a better presentation of that thing?
• 1:32:16
  I think now they've they've improved on it.
• 1:32:18
  At least they use foil. Then they now do the thing.
• 1:32:21
  But why must it be newspaper as a question?
• 1:32:26
  Why can't someone invent something else?
• 1:32:30
  Hallelujah. Great value, but when poorly
• 1:32:34
  presented. I'm sorry to tell you this, I
• 1:32:37
  have listened to preachers. Their content is so potent, but
• 1:32:41
  their presentation is not exceptional enough.
• 1:32:45
  It waters down the power of what you're trying to say.
• 1:32:49
  If you carefully listen to the things they're saying, they're
• 1:32:52
  speaking a lot of sense. But because it's coming from a
• 1:32:56
  very amateur presentation, it doesn't carry the kind of weight
• 1:33:00
  that should give listenership to Are We Together Now?
• 1:33:05
  Presentation is as powerful as the solution itself.
• 1:33:10
  Presentation, presentation. Imagine that you come to buy
• 1:33:14
  rice in my restaurant and I just fetch the thing like this.
• 1:33:18
  I say thick, terrible presentation, right?
• 1:33:23
  Imagine that you come to buy, say, a bottle of soft drink, and
• 1:33:27
  then I hold the thing and you say open it for me.
• 1:33:29
  And I just put it in my mouth and open the thing.
• 1:33:32
  And I said disease. No, they kill African man.
• 1:33:36
  No. Presentation Some of you have
• 1:33:46
  you. I mean, there are people who
• 1:33:48
  make the best and nicest meals, but the flies around the
• 1:33:53
  restaurant and where you sit down, are we together now?
• 1:33:57
  That restaurant would have gone places.
• 1:33:59
  But the flies, they don't sweep the place.
• 1:34:02
  They don't do whatever it is. The water to wash is there.
• 1:34:06
  Then the I mean all kinds of things, but the woman can cook.
• 1:34:09
  Great solutions, terrible presentation.
• 1:34:13
  There is a limit to which that woman can go, no matter how she
• 1:34:15
  prays. She can't serve kings, she can't
• 1:34:18
  serve nobles. Hallelujah.
• 1:34:25
  There are people like that too. They've been given they, they,
• 1:34:28
  they are skilled and they are intelligent.
• 1:34:30
  But you give them projects and see the kind of thing they do.
• 1:34:38
  Make up your mind that your presentation will be as powerful
• 1:34:42
  as your solution. Is someone learning something
• 1:34:44
  now? If we're a preacher, don't just
• 1:34:47
  lend the word. Learn how to preach.
• 1:34:50
  There is a science to communicating truth.
• 1:34:53
  There is a science to communicating information.
• 1:34:55
  It's a learnable ability. Are we together now?
• 1:34:59
  Yeah, utterances from God. But auditory can be learned.
• 1:35:04
  By oratory, I don't just mean an elaborate display of English.
• 1:35:07
  You can communicate your thoughts in such an intelligent
• 1:35:10
  way, engaging the mind of your audience so that they follow
• 1:35:14
  through and they learn. You are saying something with
• 1:35:19
  all your heart and people are sleeping.
• 1:35:21
  It's not just lack of anointing, it's that the path you are
• 1:35:24
  following with them is not engaging.
• 1:35:27
  It's a learnable skill. Who is learning now?
• 1:35:34
  Visibility is costly. It's not a gift.
• 1:35:38
  Write this down, please. Your value to men here, this,
• 1:35:42
  your value to men will define their perception of your
• 1:35:47
  importance alongside their willingness to reward and honor
• 1:35:51
  you. This is powerful.
• 1:35:53
  I'll take it slowly. Just write all you heard and
• 1:35:55
  I'll read for you again. Your value to men, not your
• 1:35:59
  value in life. I'm not talking about your value
• 1:36:01
  in life. Only God knows your true wolf,
• 1:36:04
  but your value before men will define their perception of your
• 1:36:11
  importance. In other words, how important
• 1:36:14
  you will be in the mind of man will be predicated on the degree
• 1:36:19
  to which they think you are valuable to them.
• 1:36:22
  Are we together now? So I give you an instance.
• 1:36:26
  If two people come before a particular person, and he treats
• 1:36:31
  1 honorably and treats one casually, we're not saying that
• 1:36:35
  person who was treated with honor is necessarily greater
• 1:36:39
  before God than the other. But in the eyes of the person
• 1:36:43
  who needs you, your importance is defined by the perception of
• 1:36:48
  your value. Are we together?
• 1:36:53
  Your value to men will define their perception of your
• 1:36:58
  importance alongside their willingness to honor and reward
• 1:37:04
  you. I learned this early life and it
• 1:37:06
  changed my life. You are fearfully and
• 1:37:11
  wonderfully made. You can be shouting it before
• 1:37:13
  God, but your customer does not think you are fearfully and
• 1:37:16
  wonderfully made. Unfortunately, your world does
• 1:37:19
  not think you are fearfully and wonderfully made.
• 1:37:22
  It is through your value that you define your importance.
• 1:37:26
  Don't say people are treating me anyhow.
• 1:37:28
  They would treat you anyhow until they think you are
• 1:37:31
  valuable. The perception of your
• 1:37:36
  importance is predicated upon the perception of your value
• 1:37:41
  alongside the willingness to reward you.
• 1:37:45
  Listen, this is very powerful. Is the reason why one person can
• 1:37:48
  be treated so favorably and then another person can be treated
• 1:37:52
  anyhow. It may not even be that the
• 1:37:54
  person who was treated favorably was any better than the other
• 1:37:58
  person, but in the eye of the one who needs your value, you
• 1:38:02
  are king to them. In the eye of the one who does
• 1:38:05
  not need your value, you are just anything at all.
• 1:38:08
  Are we together now with respect to preaching?
• 1:38:14
  The one who needs what I carry and has been blessed by what I
• 1:38:18
  carry, he will have an elevated perception of me.
• 1:38:22
  But I can go somewhere and someone is celebrating me and
• 1:38:25
  kneeling down and another person is watching with shock and even
• 1:38:28
  anger. Why are you kneeling down to
• 1:38:30
  this person like this? Don't blame the man.
• 1:38:32
  I've not solved any problem for him.
• 1:38:35
  If I extend my influence and grow my visibility, one day that
• 1:38:39
  other person will find out about me and he will follow suit to
• 1:38:42
  communicate the honor. Are you getting it now?
• 1:38:45
  Don't be afraid when one person is praising you and another
• 1:38:48
  person is looking at you with such disdain.
• 1:38:50
  People define your importance based on the perception of your
• 1:38:54
  value, not in life your value to them.
• 1:39:00
  That's the reason why you call Jesus and someone else will
• 1:39:03
  kneel down, be rolling on the floor and say my King, my
• 1:39:06
  savior, because you understand the weight of his love for you
• 1:39:10
  alongside his sacrifice for you. And while you are doing that,
• 1:39:13
  another person is looking at you with disdain and he's saying
• 1:39:17
  this church people, something is wrong with your head.
• 1:39:19
  How can they see or be kneeling down and rolling on the floor
• 1:39:22
  before God? Perception of value.
• 1:39:25
  Can I tell you the truth? Your world will see you as a
• 1:39:27
  burden until you redefine your perception by being valuable.
• 1:39:32
  Your world will see you as a burden.
• 1:39:35
  Look at me, the moment people start running away from you and
• 1:39:41
  give you an ugly energy that your presence is a burden, stop
• 1:39:45
  trying to force your way, go back and work on yourself.
• 1:39:48
  It is proof that you are not adding anything to them and they
• 1:39:52
  are just looking for a psychological, A diplomatic way
• 1:39:56
  of saying get out of my space. Nobody throws away a person who
• 1:40:00
  is a gift and a value to them. Who is learning tonight?
• 1:40:04
  Maybe God is explaining to you why as soon as you step in, in
• 1:40:07
  the midst of people, they have refused.
• 1:40:09
  They, You are the only one saying you are their friend.
• 1:40:12
  They have refused to call themselves your friend.
• 1:40:15
  It's a message to you. Are we together now?
• 1:40:18
  Yes. 5-6 gentlemen, you are the only person who is saying these
• 1:40:23
  guys are my friends. They have never acknowledged
• 1:40:26
  that they are your friends because you have largely come as
• 1:40:29
  a liability. They are sharing something.
• 1:40:32
  You take your own. Just by proximity.
• 1:40:35
  They are contributing anything. You don't add anything.
• 1:40:38
  If anything, your presence always kills their plans.
• 1:40:42
  So they say, you know what? This man, let's just shift this
• 1:40:45
  person out of here. We're responsible business
• 1:40:49
  people. But every time this guy comes
• 1:40:51
  around us, the way he dresses, the way he speaks, it always
• 1:40:54
  makes them suspect us. So let's push this guy aside.
• 1:40:58
  The solution is not to get angry, to go back and say, God,
• 1:41:01
  you did not create me to be managed.
• 1:41:03
  You didn't create me to be managed.
• 1:41:05
  I'm not a spare tire. I'm not an extra luggage.
• 1:41:08
  Place something on my life and walk.
• 1:41:10
  Read books, do something, be a contributor, and sooner or later
• 1:41:16
  they will extend the hand of fellowship.
• 1:41:18
  Can I tell you this? Let me remind you of something I
• 1:41:20
  taught you here. There are two doors to the realm
• 1:41:24
  of greatness you still remember #1 is called the Door of Need.
• 1:41:28
  The other is called the Door of Value.
• 1:41:30
  If you step into the Realm of greatness using the Door of
• 1:41:33
  need, you will become a slave there forever.
• 1:41:36
  Everybody will look down on you and you'll be at the mercy of
• 1:41:40
  whoever is there. But if you enter through the
• 1:41:42
  door of value, even those greater than you will extend the
• 1:41:46
  hand of fellowship because it's not a known entity that entered
• 1:41:49
  there. Make a weird shame from your
• 1:41:54
  life by being valuable. Did you hear what I said?
• 1:41:57
  Anti covenant with yourself. I will never go anywhere where I
• 1:42:01
  will be managed. They will see me as a gift.
• 1:42:04
  They will see me as a blessing, not blind bold face.
• 1:42:07
  You are so valuable. People receive you as an answer
• 1:42:11
  to prayer. Nobody will receive you and say
• 1:42:16
  God what do I do with this person now?
• 1:42:18
  No, when the prophet went to the woman in Zarephath, knowing he
• 1:42:24
  was a prophet, she was happy to receive him and her life
• 1:42:28
  changed. How about Jesus with the woman
• 1:42:30
  at the well? When she perceived you as a
• 1:42:32
  prophet, her life changed. Whose life changes when you show
• 1:42:36
  up? Don't just say people hate me.
• 1:42:42
  These church people, they are not even nice to me.
• 1:42:44
  Can you imagine those two people?
• 1:42:46
  And they are from my place, so that's not the question.
• 1:42:50
  The perception of your importance will be directly
• 1:42:54
  connected to the value you bring to those who need you.
• 1:42:59
  Have you learned something tonight?
• 1:43:01
  It's true, it's true. So the woman who has the
• 1:43:11
  restaurant, because she's so valuable to those who need her,
• 1:43:15
  do you know the day she falls sick, all those who need her
• 1:43:18
  will know because when they come and the door is locked, they
• 1:43:21
  call and say, Madam, why are you not here?
• 1:43:23
  Why is the restaurant not open? And she says, well, I'm, I'm a
• 1:43:26
  bit under the weather. How can I help you?
• 1:43:28
  Because I, I mean, I knew I had plans for this thing today.
• 1:43:31
  Let me tell you this. When your absence is not
• 1:43:36
  noticed, your presence is largely not a blessing.
• 1:43:41
  When your absence is not noticed, you are part of a
• 1:43:46
  department. You are part of an organization.
• 1:43:48
  God forbid something happens and you are absent, you have not
• 1:43:52
  impacted anybody with your life enough for someone to say no.
• 1:43:56
  Something is missing. This person did not come to
• 1:43:59
  church. Today there are people if they
• 1:44:01
  don't come to church for two weeks, nobody knows, Nobody can
• 1:44:04
  call them. No.
• 1:44:05
  Become so valuable. Let your presence be such a
• 1:44:09
  blessing. Let it create such warmth that
• 1:44:12
  when people do not see you, they go out of their way to say, my
• 1:44:15
  brother, are you OK? Can I come and visit you?
• 1:44:20
  We had the board meeting yesterday without you, and
• 1:44:22
  though we made progress, we can't deny the fact that your
• 1:44:25
  absence was felt. That's a valuable person.
• 1:44:28
  In the name of Jesus, I pray for you as you seek to contend for
• 1:44:32
  visibility by the power that raised Christ from the dead.
• 1:44:35
  I pray for you that you will be so valuable.
• 1:44:38
  You will never have to be ashamed anywhere in the name of
• 1:44:44
  Jesus. So obtain grace to stretch.
• 1:44:47
  Build your capacity as a man of God.
• 1:44:51
  Don't. Don't wallow around people who
• 1:44:53
  are by far less than you in understanding.
• 1:44:56
  And then you keep flattering yourself that I'm an exceptional
• 1:44:58
  man of God. Who marked your script?
• 1:45:03
  Don't match your script by yourself and prepare an award
• 1:45:05
  ceremony for yourself. The path of failures.
• 1:45:09
  Who's accredited your competence?
• 1:45:12
  Who can speak? Is it based on a global
• 1:45:14
  reference as a leader who has attested to your competence, as
• 1:45:22
  a businessman who can look at you and say this is a fine young
• 1:45:25
  man rising a descent potential here worthy of investing in.
• 1:45:30
  Please go back and stop wasting your time with the noise of
• 1:45:34
  mediocres. Bend down and keep building
• 1:45:37
  yourself that by the next time you lift up your head in
• 1:45:40
  righteousness is the whole world that will be celebrating God in
• 1:45:43
  your life. Are we together now?
• 1:45:50
  I hope you're learning competence.
• 1:45:53
  Gain mastery at something. Gain mastery at something.
• 1:45:57
  If it's your professional work, no way.
• 1:46:00
  Thoroughly sharpen your edges. dot the IS, cross the T's.
• 1:46:06
  Be competent. Become a Workman that needed not
• 1:46:09
  to be ashamed. Rightly dividing.
• 1:46:13
  Rightly dividing. There is scarceness of
• 1:46:17
  competence in our world. There is enough room for you if
• 1:46:22
  you quit laziness and excuses and press to be exceptional.
• 1:46:26
  Is God speaking to someone? You are a tailor stretched to
• 1:46:30
  the limit. You are a man of God stretched
• 1:46:33
  to the limit. You are a diplomat stretched to
• 1:46:36
  the limit. Appraise yourself.
• 1:46:38
  Do an honest, ruthless critique on yourself.
• 1:46:44
  Come up with inspiring ways of improving this this entity
• 1:46:48
  called you. And don't stop until you look
• 1:46:51
  around and all you find around you are kings.
• 1:46:53
  Then you have gotten there. You don't stop till you get into
• 1:46:57
  the palace. It's only the palace that has
• 1:46:59
  the treasures. Nobody rewards you in the
• 1:47:01
  prison. The prisoners are as helpless as
• 1:47:04
  you, even though they need your gift.
• 1:47:06
  It is only the king who has the wherewithal to enjoy your gift
• 1:47:11
  and then reward you. Say in the name of Jesus, I
• 1:47:14
  obtain grace to be valuable. Turn it into prayer in one
• 1:47:18
  minute. Everyone turn it into prayer in
• 1:47:21
  one minute. Very.
• 1:47:22
  Quickly you are praying. Chabranti kaparatos kiata
• 1:47:26
  lagrasque niketesh reka de berrecata pranda kaparatosia,
• 1:47:30
  the grace for visibility. It works.
• 1:47:34
  It's activated only in the life of those who desire to be
• 1:47:41
  valuable, who press to be valuable, who press to be
• 1:47:45
  competent. In Jesus name we pray, make
• 1:47:50
  reference to Mark chapter 135 to 37.
• 1:47:53
  It's a scripture that has become an anthem in my life.
• 1:47:56
  Very inspiring scripture. Mark 31 Mark 1:35 to 37, my
• 1:48:01
  final read and I go to the next point and in the morning, rising
• 1:48:05
  up a great while before day he went out Jesus now and departed
• 1:48:10
  into a solitary place and there prayed. 36 and Simon and they
• 1:48:15
  that were with him followed after him.
• 1:48:18
  Are we together followed after him?
• 1:48:21
  Shout verse 7, please, and receive it as a word for
• 1:48:25
  yourself. One to go.
• 1:48:26
  And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men.
• 1:48:32
  This is the most evident proof of value.
• 1:48:36
  All men, all men mean all people groups.
• 1:48:41
  Where your tribe no longer matters, where your age no
• 1:48:44
  longer matters, where your gender no longer matters.
• 1:48:47
  If people still use the excuse of your tribe age, gender, they
• 1:48:50
  are flimsy excuses is because your value is not taller than
• 1:48:54
  your limitations. A poultry never complaints about
• 1:49:01
  your fence. It is, it is taller than your
• 1:49:04
  fence. It is not insecured by your
• 1:49:07
  fence even though it is side by side with your fence.
• 1:49:11
  It is so tall, your fence is not a threat to it.
• 1:49:16
  So when you give excuses of tribal sentiments, it may have
• 1:49:20
  some level of validity, but when the stakes are down, it's not a
• 1:49:24
  valid excuse. It is that you have not
• 1:49:26
  contended for growth or value for competence.
• 1:49:30
  And I pray for you that God will help you.
• 1:49:32
  Next point very quickly, Strategic connections #4 let's
• 1:49:36
  hurry up now. I'm going to say a few things
• 1:49:38
  here that I want you to please pay attention.
• 1:49:41
  Strategic connections, visibility cannot happen outside
• 1:49:47
  of strategic connections. Not the things we've been
• 1:49:50
  discussing. That number one, you must die to
• 1:49:53
  self #2 You must contend for enlightenment and
• 1:49:56
  transformation, sustaining a superior belief system #3 You
• 1:50:01
  must be valuable and productive #4 Strategic connections.
• 1:50:07
  Write this down please. Relationships are advantageous
• 1:50:10
  connections that are mutually beneficial to the parties
• 1:50:16
  involved. Please.
• 1:50:17
  On the line, Mutually beneficial relationships are advantageous
• 1:50:22
  connections that are and should be mutually beneficial to the
• 1:50:28
  parties involved. When a relationship or any kind
• 1:50:34
  of relationship is not mutually beneficial to the parties
• 1:50:38
  involved, it's not a Kingdom relationship.
• 1:50:43
  Relationships are bridges to an exceptional life.
• 1:50:48
  Unfortunately, there are also bridges to a life of pain and
• 1:50:51
  regret. The bridge between where you are
• 1:50:55
  now and a future of pain and regret is a relationship.
• 1:51:01
  The bridge between where you are now and a life of excellence and
• 1:51:06
  glory and grace is also a relationship.
• 1:51:08
  The cheapest of them be in your relationship with Jesus.
• 1:51:12
  Relationships are bridges. Don't forget this.
• 1:51:15
  They can lead to an exceptional life and they can lead to a life
• 1:51:19
  of pain and regret. Again, relationships are
• 1:51:24
  currencies. They can buy anything money can
• 1:51:28
  buy and buy what money cannot buy.
• 1:51:32
  Relationships are currencies. They can buy what money can buy,
• 1:51:38
  but they can also buy what money cannot buy.
• 1:51:45
  The easiest way of taught you in this house to succeed in life is
• 1:51:49
  through relationships and destiny connections.
• 1:51:51
  Don't forget this relationships, advantageous connections,
• 1:51:56
  mutually beneficial to the parties involved.
• 1:51:59
  There are bridges, I said, leading to an exceptional life.
• 1:52:03
  There are also bridges leading to a future of pain and regret.
• 1:52:07
  Relationships are currencies. They can buy anything money can
• 1:52:11
  buy, and they can also buy what money cannot buy.
• 1:52:15
  The easiest way to succeed in life is through relationships
• 1:52:19
  and destiny connections. Now let me encourage you.
• 1:52:23
  I want to do a bit of work on your mind now.
• 1:52:25
  Lend people skills. Write that down.
• 1:52:29
  You want to gain mastery over relationships?
• 1:52:33
  Learn people skills. If you do not learn people
• 1:52:37
  skills, you are limited in ways you cannot imagine.
• 1:52:43
  I'll tell you this for free. Real wealth is not just in
• 1:52:47
  physical acquisitions. They matter.
• 1:52:50
  But real wealth is access to the hearts of men.
• 1:52:55
  Real wealth is securing the loyalty, the trust, and the
• 1:53:00
  confidence of many people. You are not wealthy just because
• 1:53:06
  you have physical assets and you have investments.
• 1:53:10
  Those investments only hold their value because there is a
• 1:53:12
  man at the back and willing to preserve that value.
• 1:53:16
  Real wealth is access to the hearts of men.
• 1:53:20
  Real wealth is securing the loyalty, securing the trust and
• 1:53:27
  securing the confidence of many man, of many men.
• 1:53:31
  It is impossible for a man to have secured the loyalty, the
• 1:53:37
  trust and the confidence of many men.
• 1:53:40
  And then that man becomes financially bankrupt.
• 1:53:43
  He doesn't have to be a businessman.
• 1:53:45
  If for any reason you follow the path that secures the loyalty,
• 1:53:49
  the trust, and the confidence of many men, you are wealthy by
• 1:53:53
  every definition. There are laws you need to
• 1:53:57
  understand, auxiliary laws that support excelling in
• 1:54:01
  relationships. Can I list a few for you #1 You
• 1:54:06
  must understand the law of honor.
• 1:54:08
  You cannot excel in relationships if you do not
• 1:54:11
  understand the law of honor. What is honor?
• 1:54:15
  The discerning, The rewarding, the appreciating or
• 1:54:21
  acknowledging, celebrating of an individual for their distinctive
• 1:54:26
  value or for their uniqueness is called honor.
• 1:54:31
  Lend the law of honor. I've done a teaching on the law
• 1:54:33
  of honor. You can get it on our page.
• 1:54:35
  What other law do you need to learn?
• 1:54:37
  Lend the law of words. Learn the law of words.
• 1:54:42
  The Bible says by your words you are condemned, and by your words
• 1:54:46
  you are justified. Are we together?
• 1:54:50
  Yes, you must learn the law of words, a word spoken in due
• 1:54:55
  season. How pleasant it is.
• 1:54:57
  There are many people. The reason why relationships do
• 1:55:00
  not last all kinds in your life is because you are a sincere
• 1:55:05
  person, but you have not learned the law of words.
• 1:55:09
  Words convey your deepest thoughts.
• 1:55:12
  Nations have gone to war today because of words.
• 1:55:15
  The Bible says if a man erred not in words, that man is
• 1:55:18
  considered a perfect man, able to bridle his tongue.
• 1:55:23
  The law of words. What other law do you need to
• 1:55:25
  learn? The law of timing.
• 1:55:29
  The law of timing you cannot excel in relationships,
• 1:55:34
  especially relationships that are higher than you that you are
• 1:55:38
  drawing from, if you do not understand the law of timing, a
• 1:55:44
  word spoken in due season. There is timing for everything.
• 1:55:52
  I'm not a marriage counselor, but there are many marriages
• 1:55:55
  that have died or on their way dying today because they
• 1:55:59
  understood words but they did not understand timing.
• 1:56:04
  Timing, timing. The Bible says there is a time
• 1:56:08
  for everything under the sun. There is a time to speak.
• 1:56:11
  There is a time to refrain from speaking.
• 1:56:15
  A disciplined person is one who has what to say but is patient
• 1:56:18
  until the right time to say it. Don't always speak just because
• 1:56:23
  you have what to say. You may be right, but your
• 1:56:25
  timing will make what you are saying wrong.
• 1:56:30
  The law of timing. You must also understand human
• 1:56:34
  nature. Unfortunately, if you don't
• 1:56:35
  understand this, you will be a victim of many pains and many
• 1:56:38
  scars. You must understand human
• 1:56:41
  nature. The nature of greed, the nature
• 1:56:45
  of selfishness, ego, the emotional inconsistencies in
• 1:56:51
  men. Sorry I'm stretching you.
• 1:56:57
  You must understand human nature.
• 1:56:59
  There are people who expect God like perfection from all men.
• 1:57:03
  That's why their hearts continue to get PS day and night.
• 1:57:06
  The law of human nature. It's in man without the help of
• 1:57:10
  God to be greedy. It's in man without the help of
• 1:57:13
  God to be selfish. It's in man without the help of
• 1:57:17
  God to be egocentric. It's in man without the help of
• 1:57:22
  God to have emotional inconsistencies.
• 1:57:26
  If you don't have this as a rule of thumb, you will be
• 1:57:30
  disappointed by many, many people in your life.
• 1:57:36
  How could this person do this to me?
• 1:57:38
  Unfortunately, Welcome to the world of men.
• 1:57:41
  You can be a friend today and a collateral tomorrow.
• 1:57:45
  World of men for you. Are we together?
• 1:57:55
  Of all these laws I mentioned, which do you not know?
• 1:57:58
  Which have you not learned? Which have you not mastered?
• 1:58:01
  Do you know? Sometimes, with all due respect,
• 1:58:03
  as I watch people interact and, and I say this with every sense
• 1:58:06
  of humility, I watch the gaps in knowledge and the mistakes
• 1:58:10
  people continue to make and they blame God for the reason why
• 1:58:14
  they do not have strategic connections.
• 1:58:17
  Trouble keeps backfiring for them back-to-back and they
• 1:58:21
  cannot explain why. Learn this for you.
• 1:58:24
  It may be you do not. You don't have the law of honor.
• 1:58:27
  Everybody in your world is your mate safe journey.
• 1:58:32
  God is your mate destiny. Help us out.
• 1:58:36
  You know what I mean by your mate.
• 1:58:37
  I mean you have you have a classless world.
• 1:58:41
  You don't stratify people enough to accord those who are
• 1:58:44
  deserving Honor. Honor you will.
• 1:58:47
  You will go through needless battles.
• 1:58:49
  How about words? You stand before someone says
• 1:58:52
  escort me to a meeting. It's not your meeting.
• 1:58:55
  It's not your company. But you become the greatest
• 1:58:58
  talkative there. The director says, you know, I'm
• 1:59:01
  trying to say no, no, no, no. My brother is a military man.
• 1:59:04
  That statement is a lie. Just yesterday, I can't even
• 1:59:06
  call him here. And everybody just keeps quiet.
• 1:59:09
  And you think they're quiet because they're impressed
• 1:59:11
  watching you. You have you have destroyed the
• 1:59:14
  relationship of the one who brought you.
• 1:59:19
  And while you are going, the person is thinking of how you
• 1:59:21
  say, I'm sorry. You say, you know, I enjoyed my
• 1:59:23
  time. I mean, it was Kai.
• 1:59:24
  It's been a long time since I I gave myself room to speak
• 1:59:28
  intelligently like this. And the person is saying, what
• 1:59:30
  did I do? What generational cause followed
• 1:59:32
  me and made me carry this person to the place where my destiny
• 1:59:37
  help us out? Words.
• 1:59:43
  Words. You can say one thing that can
• 1:59:50
  bring an open door that remains transgenerational.
• 1:59:56
  One thing. You said I'm a man, but there
• 2:00:01
  are people who have used words, and they've made me miraculously
• 2:00:06
  and dear to them with words. Words.
• 2:00:13
  Hezekiah turned his face to the wall.
• 2:00:16
  And said Isaiah, you have prophesied Isaiah brought the
• 2:00:19
  team hot like that the way he received it.
• 2:00:22
  No diplomacy, put your house in order, you would die.
• 2:00:26
  Here is the message and he's a car torn and said God, let's
• 2:00:30
  talk. Is it not the living that praise
• 2:00:34
  you? If I die now, who will praise
• 2:00:38
  you? Remember, O God, however God
• 2:00:41
  said, who is this? Who is speaking to me?
• 2:00:45
  He said, you know what Hezekiah? I will add 15 years.
• 2:00:50
  I will heal you of your sickness.
• 2:00:54
  Words are powerful. There is what you can tell
• 2:00:57
  someone that they will never forget about you.
• 2:01:00
  I'm telling you, are we together?
• 2:01:04
  Words. I don't mean flattery,
• 2:01:08
  authenticity of words. It comes with such grace.
• 2:01:12
  It can minister deeply to people.
• 2:01:14
  You edge the memory of your relevance.
• 2:01:17
  They lose the ability to forget or ignore you.
• 2:01:21
  Some of us, this is where we're missing it.
• 2:01:23
  We don't know how to use words. And for others it's timing.
• 2:01:30
  You wake your husband by 3:00 and say stand up.
• 2:01:33
  Stand up. This apostles teaching on
• 2:01:36
  boldness is to stand up. There's an issue we need to
• 2:01:39
  discuss. And the man says, I hope, you
• 2:01:42
  know, they just sucked me. Say stand up, stand up.
• 2:01:48
  I was praying with a group and they said the trouble in this
• 2:01:50
  house is coming from your family.
• 2:01:52
  And I said that's why you are waking me.
• 2:01:54
  The next thing you will see him talking with your lawyer for one
• 2:01:57
  hour and you're wondering why he's talking with the man that
• 2:02:00
  way. And he says, you know what?
• 2:02:03
  I'm just going to drive you out of my life and you'll say, what
• 2:02:05
  did I do? Timing, not every time is
• 2:02:10
  convenient for everything. Master timing.
• 2:02:14
  Don't walk to your boss and say, Sir, I'm going to speak my mind
• 2:02:17
  today. The man said, I just lost my
• 2:02:18
  mother. I said, well, I sympathize with
• 2:02:20
  you, but this is what I want. We need a pay raise.
• 2:02:23
  I'm the head of the union in this, in this organization.
• 2:02:27
  And the man says, all right, I've had you.
• 2:02:29
  He calls the HR people and says, you've been trying to downsize 2
• 2:02:33
  people. I have a candidate.
• 2:02:35
  Take away that guy and his other relative out of my company one
• 2:02:39
  piece and all of a sudden you come, you see that sometimes
• 2:02:43
  what we call generational causes and all these problems, they
• 2:02:46
  they are just an opportunity. We give the devil wrong timing.
• 2:02:55
  Let me give you the next. Well, a few.
• 2:02:58
  A few more things on relationship master human
• 2:03:03
  nature. I said that.
• 2:03:03
  Let me repeat it for emphasis. Hear me, ladies and gentlemen,
• 2:03:10
  we're still on earth now, so create a system within your
• 2:03:16
  heart to not be surprised at the inconsistencies of men.
• 2:03:20
  There are some of you who are shocked at everything.
• 2:03:25
  How come my director just hits me like that?
• 2:03:28
  This is the world of men. Are we together now?
• 2:03:32
  This is why you need God, the friend who stick it closer than
• 2:03:35
  a friend. One day your husband does
• 2:03:39
  something, your wife does something, your spouse, your
• 2:03:41
  children and all of that and you are wondering what is this
• 2:03:44
  again? Even this one that is close to
• 2:03:46
  me, unfortunately. Welcome to the world of men.
• 2:03:50
  When you know this about men, you will appreciate the ones God
• 2:03:53
  has worked on. And if that person God has
• 2:03:56
  worked on is your wife, appreciate God.
• 2:03:58
  Seriously, if that person God has worked on is your husband or
• 2:04:02
  your child or whatever it is, you appreciate them greatly.
• 2:04:06
  Because let me tell you, men by default are very inconsistent.
• 2:04:11
  They will say hosanna today and say crucify him tomorrow.
• 2:04:16
  It's not a unique attack to you, it's how men are #5 What is the
• 2:04:23
  fifth key that governs visibility?
• 2:04:28
  Is someone honestly learning something tonight #5 Are you
• 2:04:31
  ready? The power of true humility.
• 2:04:35
  The power of true humility. James 4/6 and then 10.
• 2:04:39
  Let's rush the power of true humility.
• 2:04:43
  I'll show you a secret. You want visibility.
• 2:04:46
  Here it is. He giveth more grace.
• 2:04:49
  Therefore he said God resisted the proud, but he giveth grace
• 2:04:56
  to who? He never said he gives it to the
• 2:04:59
  Christian. He says the verse 10, humble
• 2:05:06
  yourselves therefore in the sight of God and he shall lift
• 2:05:11
  you up. Someone said, lift me up, say it
• 2:05:15
  as a prayer. Say Lord lift me up.
• 2:05:17
  Humble yourself in the sight of God.
• 2:05:20
  Write this down. Pride is a reducer of honor and
• 2:05:24
  grace. It is a reducer of honor and
• 2:05:28
  grace. Proverbs 2923.
• 2:05:31
  Pride is a reducer or depleter of honor and grace.
• 2:05:36
  He says a man's pride. Proverbs 2923 A man's pride
• 2:05:41
  shall bring him law, but honor shall uphold who the humble in
• 2:05:47
  spirit. Pride destroys Isaiah 211 and
• 2:05:52
  verse 12. Pride really destroys.
• 2:05:56
  Take it from me. Pride is 1 stage where you
• 2:06:00
  become an enemy of both God and the devil.
• 2:06:04
  The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of
• 2:06:08
  men shall be bowed down, and the Lord alone shall be exalted in
• 2:06:13
  that day. Verse 12.
• 2:06:14
  He says, For the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon everyone
• 2:06:19
  that is proud and lofty, and upon everyone that is lifted up,
• 2:06:24
  and he shall be brought low. May that not be your testimony
• 2:06:28
  in the name of Jesus Christ. Pride reduces anything.
• 2:06:32
  It reduces honor. It reduces grace.
• 2:06:36
  Pride worsens any condition. Any condition plus pride becomes
• 2:06:43
  the worst degenerated version of that condition.
• 2:06:47
  Pride worsens any condition. A man who is sick and proud
• 2:06:53
  becomes a man whose condition is worsened.
• 2:06:56
  A man who is poor and proud becomes a man whose condition is
• 2:07:01
  worsened. A man who is unemployed and
• 2:07:03
  proud, it becomes a man whose condition.
• 2:07:06
  A man who is in bed and proud. A man who is ignorant and proud.
• 2:07:12
  Anything plus pride becomes a worsened condition of it.
• 2:07:18
  Pride worsens any condition. Here's my recommendation.
• 2:07:21
  Therefore, always acknowledge God as the basis of any result
• 2:07:28
  in your life. Always acknowledge God as the
• 2:07:33
  basis of any result in your life.
• 2:08:26
  Listen, let me tell you this. When you acknowledge God as the
• 2:08:32
  basis of the results in your life, for a while you will look
• 2:08:35
  cheap. For a while it will look like
• 2:08:37
  you are falling your own hand. When there's the spotlight on
• 2:08:41
  you and it's an opportunity to shine, to drive the message
• 2:08:45
  through, you hide behind the cross and you allow Jesus to be
• 2:08:49
  seen. But can I tell you you have
• 2:08:52
  secured longevity of that result when you acknowledge God as the
• 2:08:57
  basis of anything in your life? Take this from me.
• 2:09:01
  Write this down. Celebrate success and
• 2:09:04
  achievement with boundaries. Celebrate success.
• 2:09:09
  Celebrate achievements with boundaries.
• 2:09:14
  At this point, let me refer you to my message Strategy for
• 2:09:17
  consistency. You find it on our YouTube page,
• 2:09:20
  Koinonia Global. Please let me encourage everyone
• 2:09:23
  strategy for consistency. Perhaps the media will add it to
• 2:09:28
  the engrafted words this week. Strategy for consistency.
• 2:09:35
  I thought that at the anniversary of the Covenant
• 2:09:39
  Nation, and it's a strategy that champions used to remain, that
• 2:09:45
  years and decades after your impact, you are still fresh and
• 2:09:49
  you are still moving. Hallelujah.
• 2:09:53
  Celebrate success. Celebrate achievements, but put
• 2:09:57
  boundaries to them. Don't over celebrate can be
• 2:10:01
  dangerous. I preach the message.
• 2:10:06
  You may want to listen to the lifting power of true humility.
• 2:10:10
  There's false humility. Refusing to acknowledge God's
• 2:10:14
  grace upon your life is false humility.
• 2:10:17
  And there's a difference between humility and simplicity.
• 2:10:21
  A man can be simple, but not humble.
• 2:10:24
  Are we together? Acknowledging God as a doer, the
• 2:10:30
  basis behind everything good in your life, is true humility.
• 2:10:42
  Self time. In the name of Jesus, I kill
• 2:10:45
  pride from my life. Say it like you mean it.
• 2:10:50
  Say in the name of Jesus, Pride dies from my life.
• 2:10:57
  Kill it. Oh kill it and make sure it
• 2:10:59
  dies. Watch it die.
• 2:11:01
  Pride is a killer. It's a depleter.
• 2:11:03
  It reduces anything, reduces a man's honor, reduces a man's
• 2:11:08
  longevity of impact, reduces your voice, your influence.
• 2:11:12
  Can I tell you it's difficult to criticize a humble man?
• 2:11:16
  Even if the man is wrong? Your hands are tied.
• 2:11:20
  Humility is a defense. It is easier to criticize an
• 2:11:25
  arrogant person. When someone is humble and you
• 2:11:28
  have to criticize that person, you feel guilty.
• 2:11:31
  The humility seems to cover for so many grounds.
• 2:11:37
  Pride makes anything about your life believable.
• 2:11:40
  True or not, pride makes anything about your life,
• 2:11:44
  especially negative things, believable.
• 2:12:01
  What is humility Lord? If you are not here, I would not
• 2:12:05
  have come this far. Lord, You are the reason, the
• 2:12:08
  basis for this and I will let the nations know through my life
• 2:12:13
  that you are the reason for it. And God says with all these
• 2:12:15
  spotlights, you can still return to me.
• 2:12:18
  He said, Lord, I'm not only returning to you, it's your boy
• 2:12:20
  that is returning to you. And God says get ready for the
• 2:12:24
  next level. And from nowhere like the eagle,
• 2:12:27
  you just come out and people look at your life and say, just
• 2:12:33
  when we thought we've seen everything, then comes another
• 2:12:36
  layer. There is no end to the one who
• 2:12:38
  does the business of humility with God.
• 2:12:41
  I'm telling you, humility is a real investment.
• 2:12:44
  It has returns. It has returns.
• 2:12:47
  It has returns, It has returns. If there's anything I fight in
• 2:12:53
  my life is this pride or it's a dangerous thing.
• 2:12:57
  I've seen it tear people down, not just in the Bible.
• 2:13:00
  I've seen people's influence and relevance disappear like vapor,
• 2:13:09
  but when a man decides to project Jesus, less of you and
• 2:13:14
  more of Him. You have found a great secret in
• 2:13:18
  life, visibility. Do you know why God exalted
• 2:13:22
  Jesus? It was not just because He was
• 2:13:25
  the Son of God. Remember Philippians chapter 2
• 2:13:29
  from verse 5 to 10, It documents the basis for his exaltation
• 2:13:33
  that even though he comes, he was God.
• 2:13:35
  He did not consider that robbery, but then in the midst
• 2:13:38
  of that he humbled himself. That's the key.
• 2:13:41
  He humbled himself, not only became a man, but he died.
• 2:13:46
  He was obedient to death, even the death of the cross.
• 2:13:49
  Verse 9, Philippians 2 says wherefore on account of the
• 2:13:52
  aforementioned God so highly. The last time I heard about
• 2:13:58
  highly, it was highly favored. Now there is also highly
• 2:14:02
  exalted. A man can be highly exalted and
• 2:14:07
  it can be given a name. The name is an office, a
• 2:14:10
  reputation that is above every other name.
• 2:14:17
  Number six, what is the 6th key you want to access the grace for
• 2:14:26
  visibility? Here is the 6th key.
• 2:14:29
  Passionately seek the help of God.
• 2:14:33
  Closely connected to humility, Passionately seek the help of
• 2:14:38
  God. In this case, put in bracket
• 2:14:41
  divine empowerment. Passionately seek the help of
• 2:14:46
  God. 2nd Corinthians 3 and verse 5 tells us very clearly that our
• 2:14:53
  sufficiency is not of ourselves. Here's what it says, not that we
• 2:14:59
  are sufficient. The word sufficient means
• 2:15:01
  capable of ourselves, to think anything of ourselves, but our
• 2:15:06
  sufficiency as a preacher, as a businessman, as a parent, as a
• 2:15:11
  spouse, as an academician, as a politician, as a diplomat, as a
• 2:15:17
  career person, He says our sufficiency is of God.
• 2:15:22
  Psalm 75, Six and seven passionately seek the help of
• 2:15:27
  God. Knowing this, 75, six and seven
• 2:15:31
  promotion cometh neither from the East.
• 2:15:34
  Kanonia, listen to me. It does not come from the West.
• 2:15:39
  It does not come from the South. That looks like the location of
• 2:15:43
  your office, but it is God who is the judge.
• 2:15:46
  He put that down 1 and he set it up another.
• 2:15:50
  May you not be the one he puts down.
• 2:15:54
  I believe the one he puts down is the one who is proud and then
• 2:15:57
  the one who is lifted. Proverbs 1829.
• 2:16:03
  I like this. Why do you need the help of God
• 2:16:06
  in your life? Proverbs 1829.
• 2:16:12
  Media 1829 It says by you, I can run through a troop.
• 2:16:21
  It says, By my God, I can leap over a wall.
• 2:16:26
  Psalms. My apologies.
• 2:16:27
  Psalms. Psalms 1829 For by thee I have
• 2:16:32
  run through a troop. It says By my God.
• 2:16:35
  By who? My God, I have leaped over a
• 2:16:40
  wall. You can't be low to leap over a
• 2:16:42
  wall. Leaping over demands that you go
• 2:16:45
  higher than the wall itself. Any kind of wall.
• 2:16:48
  It says it is by God we leap over walls.
• 2:16:52
  Psalm 127 and verse one. I'm giving you scriptures that
• 2:16:55
  become an anchor supporting your passion to gain Kingdom
• 2:16:59
  visibility. Except the Lord builds the
• 2:17:02
  house. Any house they label in vain
• 2:17:05
  that build it, except the Lord, keeps the city.
• 2:17:09
  Koinonia. The watchman walketh, but in
• 2:17:13
  vain. Verse 2.
• 2:17:14
  It is vain to rise up early, and to sleep late, or to eat the
• 2:17:20
  bread of sorrow, for it is he that giveth his beloved sleep.
• 2:17:27
  There's nothing you do in your own strength that becomes
• 2:17:29
  marvelous, until it is the Lord's doing.
• 2:17:32
  Psalm 118, verse 23. It is only marvelous in the eyes
• 2:17:36
  of man when it is the Lord's doing.
• 2:17:39
  Psalm 118, 23 This is the Lord's doing.
• 2:17:44
  When your lifting is the Lord's doing, it becomes marvelous in
• 2:17:47
  our eyes. When your progress is the Lord's
• 2:17:50
  doing, it becomes marvelous in our eyes.
• 2:17:53
  Are we together? Yes.
• 2:17:54
  When your parenting is the Lord's doing, when your marriage
• 2:17:57
  is the Lord's doing, when you're getting a job is the Lord's
• 2:18:01
  doing. When your business is the Lord's
• 2:18:03
  doing, the reason why there's so much activity but nothing you
• 2:18:07
  need to praise God is because it is still your doing.
• 2:18:11
  Tonight, get into partnership with God like David Yongichu
• 2:18:15
  advised us, let him become your senior partner.
• 2:18:18
  I taught you in this house, don't just say God is my partner
• 2:18:21
  in business, there's junior partner and their senior
• 2:18:23
  partner. Qualify his position.
• 2:18:26
  Let him be your senior partner, the one who takes the lead, not
• 2:18:30
  the one who follows you. He's the one who leads, and when
• 2:18:35
  he leads it becomes his doing and it becomes marvelous in our
• 2:18:40
  eyes. It becomes marvelous in our
• 2:18:43
  eyes, becomes marvelous in our eyes.
• 2:18:47
  Jeremiah 17, seven and 817, seven and eight.
• 2:18:51
  Jeremiah 17, seven and eight. He said, blessed said, is the
• 2:18:55
  man that trusted in the Lord, say I am that man and whose hope
• 2:19:02
  the Lord is. Verse 8.
• 2:19:05
  He says, for He shall be as a tree planted by the waters that
• 2:19:10
  spread out her roots by the river, and shall not see heat
• 2:19:15
  when it comes, but her leaf shall be green, and shall not be
• 2:19:19
  careful in the day of drought, neither shall it cease from
• 2:19:23
  yielding fruit. Can I tell you this, ladies and
• 2:19:27
  gentlemen, as I reflect on my own life, I see areas in my life
• 2:19:35
  where if God did not come into partnership with this frail man,
• 2:19:41
  it would have been impossible to attain certain results in life.
• 2:19:48
  And so when we live our lives. And you know.
• 2:19:51
  We do the bit that we do as we serve God and when they look
• 2:19:56
  spectacular and they seem as though we are invincible.
• 2:20:01
  It looks as though we are that spectacular and the world wants
• 2:20:05
  to fit us into a celebrity class and a celebrity status.
• 2:20:09
  On one hand, we appreciate them for whatever it is they do, but
• 2:20:13
  we have been taught, mentored and cultured enough to know that
• 2:20:19
  if it's your senior partner, when people look at the team,
• 2:20:22
  who should they see? Talk to me, ladies and
• 2:20:25
  gentlemen, if God is your senior partner.
• 2:20:28
  If Jesus is your senior partner, if by his Spirit he's your
• 2:20:32
  senior partner and He's in front leading the way, when people
• 2:20:36
  look at that team, who should they see?
• 2:20:38
  Yes, when they see you to a point that they do not see him,
• 2:20:45
  it means you have pushed him and you have said Lord be in my life
• 2:20:50
  or don't lead the way. I trust myself, I trust my
• 2:20:53
  intelligence. You don't know Nigeria, you've
• 2:20:55
  been in heaven for more than 2000 years.
• 2:20:57
  You just step back and allow me ride this chariot and I'll ride
• 2:21:01
  those to safety. And guess what the Holy Spirit
• 2:21:04
  will do in the character of God? He will respect you, He will
• 2:21:07
  step back. But when he does step back, you
• 2:21:10
  will see how bad a driver you are.
• 2:21:12
  You can drive that metal well, but destiny is beyond gearbox
• 2:21:18
  and is tearing the technicalities to driving your
• 2:21:22
  destiny to a safe heaven. One that is laced with
• 2:21:26
  influence. No, no man is educated enough to
• 2:21:30
  produce in to produce a what they call it influence and
• 2:21:34
  lifting in the strength of the flesh.
• 2:21:37
  And so people like us, early enough, we saw the plethora of
• 2:21:43
  deficiencies within our lives. And we said, you know what,
• 2:21:46
  Lord, I don't want to use my lifetime experimenting and
• 2:21:49
  seeing that my wisdom is foolishness.
• 2:21:52
  Let me step back. And here's how we step back.
• 2:21:56
  I. Choose the way of the Lord.
• 2:22:03
  I choose the way of the Lord for the way of the Lord is the way I
• 2:22:19
  choose the. Way someone is stepping back
• 2:22:23
  with this song tonight, I choose the way.
• 2:22:27
  Of the Lord. Step back from your pride.
• 2:22:33
  I choose the way. I know you are CEO.
• 2:22:37
  I know you have a master's APHD for the way of the Lord.
• 2:22:52
  Sing it one more time over your destination.
• 2:22:55
  Take away that that pride that is making you hold the staring
• 2:22:59
  by yourself. Allow the Ancient of Days to
• 2:23:02
  hold on to the staring of your destiny and help you drive your
• 2:23:08
  destiny to a sign and a wonder. You do it by your strength.
• 2:23:13
  You will go round and round and round and end at the same
• 2:23:16
  position. Let me tell you this.
• 2:23:44
  The way of the Spirit will look slower than normal.
• 2:23:47
  The way of the Spirit will not make sense for many years.
• 2:23:52
  The way of the Spirit will leave you lonely for a major part of
• 2:23:55
  your life. But there is wisdom in that way.
• 2:23:58
  There is wisdom when the glory of that way begins to show.
• 2:24:03
  It makes your life a spectacle of wonder.
• 2:24:07
  Yes, Sir, at every point in your life you have two routes to your
• 2:24:14
  destiny. The route of your flesh laced by
• 2:24:17
  pride, full of yourself. I know how to do ministry.
• 2:24:22
  I know how I will run my life. But there are others who kneel
• 2:24:25
  down in a hurry and say, Father, I have watched people in pride
• 2:24:29
  get crush and crush land their life.
• 2:24:33
  The woman depended on her beauty, the man depended on his
• 2:24:37
  certificate, the man depended on his business acumen.
• 2:24:42
  But there was one who came and said, Lord, I have all these
• 2:24:44
  things. I am valuable, but vain is the
• 2:24:47
  strength of a man. One man's wickedness can cancel
• 2:24:51
  your sacrifice of 20 years. That's how wicked men are.
• 2:24:56
  When you finish doing the one man can do you step back and
• 2:25:00
  allow God do the one that only God can do.
• 2:25:05
  Let me speak to someone. The way you are running ministry
• 2:25:08
  now, you will crash land. I'm telling you, you will keep
• 2:25:10
  driving it. Trouble does not look like
• 2:25:13
  trouble till you see it as trouble.
• 2:25:16
  You can be driving for a long time.
• 2:25:19
  There are people trying to do business in their own strength.
• 2:25:23
  They will leave the things of God they're saying they're
• 2:25:25
  trying to make money is money. I want to make pay attention to
• 2:25:29
  the ways of God. Apostle, you don't know what I'm
• 2:25:31
  going through after 15 years, 20 years.
• 2:25:34
  How much have you made? I'm almost there.
• 2:25:37
  I'm almost there and they never get there because except the
• 2:25:41
  Lord built a house. Let me tell you this ladies and
• 2:25:45
  gentlemen, if God does not build your house, you can have blocks,
• 2:25:49
  you can have the cement, you can be a Mason.
• 2:25:52
  You will build on a wind with scatter height.
• 2:25:55
  You will build on a wind with scatter.
• 2:25:57
  You will build on a wind with scatter.
• 2:25:59
  You will live building and go to fishing.
• 2:26:01
  You will buy boat, you will buy net, you will train in fishing,
• 2:26:05
  but you will still not catch fish.
• 2:26:08
  But when Jesus comes in one day, you will say cast your net to
• 2:26:11
  the right side and you will catch fish.
• 2:26:13
  And those who have been there before, you will say, we'll
• 2:26:16
  never seen it this way. Let me tell you this, and I said
• 2:26:21
  this prophetically to the body of Christ.
• 2:26:23
  In the seasons we're entering now, there are many people whose
• 2:26:27
  lives will annoy many people. You know why?
• 2:26:29
  Because it will look like they don't deserve where God is
• 2:26:32
  placing them. These are the people that
• 2:26:34
  decided to follow the way of the Spirit for many years.
• 2:26:38
  They look like fools for many years and now like a tree that
• 2:26:44
  has been. Planted like a tree that has
• 2:26:46
  stayed, not in a hoarding, not looking like it is growing after
• 2:26:53
  it has gained roots downwards like the baobab tree.
• 2:26:59
  Is about to blossom and in a matter of weeks and months you
• 2:27:03
  will see people rise and emerge. You'll be like I used to know
• 2:27:07
  this brother, I used to know this sister.
• 2:27:10
  But you did not follow the way they followed you used a cheaper
• 2:27:13
  route. It gave you a bargaining life
• 2:27:16
  and collected your destiny as the collateral.
• 2:27:24
  For the way. Listen to me.
• 2:27:41
  If you had the opportunity to talk to Joseph one day before
• 2:27:44
  he's rising, I'm showing anger. You turn and say, Joseph boy,
• 2:27:48
  you too. You are a foolish man.
• 2:27:51
  You are a foolish and you are a stupid person.
• 2:27:55
  What is there? And look at what you have done,
• 2:27:57
  wasting away as a gifted man in the prison.
• 2:28:01
  And Joseph too will go back and say, but God, I've been in this
• 2:28:06
  prison. I'm interpreting the dreams of
• 2:28:08
  people not knowing that the time is almost getting to 12, not
• 2:28:13
  knowing that that night Pharaoh was going to have a dream.
• 2:28:16
  There are some of you who are about to compromise now, not
• 2:28:19
  knowing you are 24 hours left, 24 hours left for your season of
• 2:28:25
  honor to start. I know that you've loved God for
• 2:28:29
  a long time. You don't have a house, you
• 2:28:31
  don't have a car, you don't have a husband, you don't have a
• 2:28:34
  wife. People use you as a proverb.
• 2:28:37
  They say, look at this lady, don't worry, they are your
• 2:28:40
  witnesses when God leaves you because they will say, we saw
• 2:28:44
  this brother, we even criticize this sister.
• 2:28:47
  Now look what God is doing in their life.
• 2:28:54
  The way of the Spirit is the way that demands stamina for many
• 2:28:58
  years. It will not make sense, I tell
• 2:29:00
  you. You will be praying and fasting
• 2:29:03
  building. You will gather God who says so.
• 2:29:06
  You will look like a fool. You will look like a stupid.
• 2:29:08
  Person, but the excellence of the way of the spirit when your
• 2:29:12
  season comes and 1000 cubits has been measured.
• 2:29:16
  There is no force and no power in existence.
• 2:29:18
  That's when is your time is your time.
• 2:29:21
  There's nothing the devil can do.
• 2:29:22
  About it. Open your mouth in one minute
• 2:29:25
  and pray in the Spirit. One minute I tell you, Grace is
• 2:29:49
  resting in this place. Grace is resting in this place.
• 2:29:53
  Grace is resting in this place. You are about to receive
• 2:29:56
  something heavy in this place tonight.
• 2:30:00
  The grace that makes men visible by the finger of God.
• 2:30:05
  Not by human manipulation, not by political maneuvers, no Sir,
• 2:30:11
  no Sir. Not by bowing and begging to
• 2:30:14
  man. Lifted by God, exalted by El
• 2:30:17
  Shaddai, He stamps his hand upon your life.
• 2:30:22
  Take a minute and pray in the Spirit.
• 2:30:24
  Don't be distracted those online, someone is praying.
• 2:30:31
  Praying because it's your season.
• 2:30:34
  All the overflows outside are you praying?
• 2:30:44
  Hallelujah. Prepare to sing that song on
• 2:30:47
  Mantos for me. Can't remember any part of the
• 2:30:49
  song, it just came to my spirit. Hallelujah.
• 2:30:54
  Now hear me, I will make a statement and then we'll pray
• 2:30:58
  for about 3 minutes and then I'll minister to you.
• 2:31:03
  Listen everybody, the last key I gave you is to passionately seek
• 2:31:09
  the help of God. Now listen, God helps man by His
• 2:31:15
  word. God helps man by his spirit.
• 2:31:22
  God helps man through men. When God wants to help a man, he
• 2:31:31
  sends his word. When God wants to help a man, he
• 2:31:36
  takes a frail man and brings him into partnership with his
• 2:31:40
  eternal spirit. When God wants to help a man, he
• 2:31:46
  brings him in proximity with careers of crisis.
• 2:31:51
  They are called them that sell them that sell them that sell.
• 2:31:59
  For the next 3 minutes you are going to pray in the Spirit.
• 2:32:02
  Enlarge. Your heart to receive.
• 2:32:05
  Sing that song on mantels. Go ahead, Mantels.
• 2:32:08
  Of power mantels of grace. I see them resting in this
• 2:32:19
  place. Mantels of mantels.
• 2:32:27
  Of abundance. I see them resting in this
• 2:32:33
  place. Mantels of powers, mantels of
• 2:32:42
  graves. I see them resting.
• 2:32:51
  Mentals of wisdom, mentals of Upon dancing,
• 2:33:11
  I see them. I see,
• 2:33:38
  I see, I see. Resting.
• 2:33:53
  I see the mantle of the nighttime mantle of Deborah.
• 2:34:07
  I see them, the mantle of Daniel Mantle.
• 2:34:19
  I see. I see the mental of power, the
• 2:35:02
  grace. I see the mental of influence,
• 2:35:13
  mental of visibility. I.
• 2:35:51
  Like you to pray one prayer, say, Father, I obtain grace,
• 2:35:57
  that as you give me visibility. It will not.
• 2:36:00
  Be a cause to my destiny. As you bring me visibility, I
• 2:36:04
  will not become A cause to the program of God.
• 2:36:07
  Open your mouth and pray. Let it be your commitment.
• 2:36:16
  Many of you will marvel and wonder what happens to your life
• 2:36:19
  after this impartation. You are about to receive an
• 2:36:23
  importation that will change your life.
• 2:36:26
  There is a hear ye him anointing.
• 2:36:29
  It causes a generation to hear you.
• 2:36:32
  It's not mechanical. You can have what to say, but if
• 2:36:36
  the grace is not on you, nobody will listen.
• 2:36:38
  To you Hallelujah, Philippians 1 #7.
• 2:36:58
  It says Ye are all partakers of my grace.
• 2:37:06
  Listen to me, ladies and gentlemen.
• 2:37:09
  When God sends a word to Jacob, it is because He desires it to
• 2:37:17
  be lightened upon Israel. For someone who is falling
• 2:37:21
  online, I'm about to. Pray.
• 2:37:23
  If you don't believe in the grace, no problem, you can shut
• 2:37:26
  down and go home. Now.
• 2:37:27
  We live in an arrogant generation that disregards the
• 2:37:31
  sacrifices of people in the Spirit and yet desire the
• 2:37:35
  results that they see. We didn't dishonor the fathers
• 2:37:39
  to come here. A generation that dishonors
• 2:37:43
  those God is using will remains taunted forever.
• 2:37:48
  God's method is His word. God's method is his Spirit.
• 2:37:54
  God's method is men. I.
• 2:38:04
  Want to pray for you because God put this in my heart.
• 2:38:09
  I have seen people labour to gain visibility in business and
• 2:38:13
  in life. I've seen people try to
• 2:38:16
  manipulate their way. It doesn't work that way by the
• 2:38:22
  messes of God. The things we have seen, the
• 2:38:26
  things we have heard, the things our hands have handled, even of
• 2:38:31
  the word of life, this is what we bring.
• 2:38:34
  Ladies and gentlemen, there are dynamics, but there is a grace.
• 2:38:39
  Truly there is. It's called a hear ye him
• 2:38:42
  anointing. It's the grace for visibility.
• 2:38:46
  It can pick any man from anywhere.
• 2:38:49
  I'm telling you, anywhere can pick a man from the village and
• 2:38:54
  'cause that person to be a sign and a wonder.
• 2:38:57
  It can pick a young lady from her family.
• 2:39:01

  declare. May God gravitate their ears to

  Hear. Me.
• 2:43:22
  And every demonic spirit misrepresenting you every time
• 2:43:28
  help us want to come. The devil uses man, the devil
• 2:43:32
  uses dreams, the devil uses false visions and they give a
• 2:43:36
  negative idea about you. So those to help you stay far
• 2:43:40
  from you because they saw something in the.
• 2:43:43
  Dream or they had what someone said.
• 2:43:46
  I pray for you right now every negative perception about your
• 2:43:50
  life in the eyes and ears of your helpers.
• 2:43:53
  Let it be corrected now. Corrected now.
• 2:44:01
  Corrected now. Corrected now in one of the
• 2:44:09
  months I said a statement in passing, and the Lord is
• 2:44:13
  reminding me of it, that after four months come to harvest.
• 2:44:17
  I don't know what that month was, but in the.
• 2:44:19
  Name of Jesus, I pray for you in this season by the power that
• 2:44:24
  raised Christ from the dead, and to anyone who has the faith to
• 2:44:27
  believe in a way you cannot explain.
• 2:44:30
  I push you to feasibility. I push you to feasibility.
• 2:44:35
  You are in Nigeria, but they will hear you in America.
• 2:44:40
  You are in Nigeria, but they will hear you in Europe.
• 2:44:43
  You are in Europe, but they will hear you in China.
• 2:44:47
  By the spirit of God, By the finger of God, I push you to
• 2:44:52
  visibility in the name of Jesus. Hear me, anyone sitting on his
• 2:45:01
  seat that is yours, By demonic manipulation, they pushed you
• 2:45:05
  and they are sitting there. In the name of Jesus Christ.
• 2:45:09
  I come in the spirit of a Hazaros and I decree every
• 2:45:13
  demonic Vashti sitting where you are supposed to sit.
• 2:45:17
  We overturn, we overturn, we overturn, we overturn, We
• 2:45:23
  overturn, we overturn in the name of Jesus.
• 2:45:37
  I feel stead in my heart to pray for the man.
• 2:45:41
  Brothers, men, let me pray for you.
• 2:45:44
  You will never be established without visibility.
• 2:45:48
  Let me tell you. Listen.
• 2:45:49
  Listen first. Don't say Amen to what you are
• 2:45:51
  not hearing. Are we together?
• 2:45:53
  There is no man who can be established until you are
• 2:45:57
  visible. If people don't know you are
• 2:46:00
  there, you can be gifted. You will be 30-40 fifty.
• 2:46:04
  You will still live in your parents house, begging with your
• 2:46:06
  wife, begging with children, almost begging with
• 2:46:09
  grandchildren, but when the right person knows you are there
• 2:46:13
  and knows he needs you, in one day you can be received with
• 2:46:16
  honor. Therefore I pray for everyone or
• 2:46:19
  the gentleman here. I decree and declare June, July,
• 2:46:25
  August. Let it be a strange month of
• 2:46:28
  establishment. I say it again.
• 2:46:31
  June, July, August. May God establish you.
• 2:46:36
  May God establish you financially.
• 2:46:40
  May God establish you maritally. May God establish you career
• 2:46:46
  wise. May God establish you in
• 2:46:49
  ministry. May God establish you in
• 2:46:52
  business in the name of Jesus. Hear me, I'm praying for anyone.
• 2:47:04
  You were once at the top, but something happened and brought
• 2:47:08
  you down. An attack, maybe a scandal,
• 2:47:12
  maybe whatever it is some an onslaught from hell.
• 2:47:17
  Maybe you were in ministry, maybe you were in business.
• 2:47:20
  You lost money, you crashed down, you were up there.
• 2:47:24
  Something happened, a bad decision.
• 2:47:26
  The same way the hell something grew back.
• 2:47:29
  I'm praying for someone in the name of Jesus.
• 2:47:32
  May the restorer restore you now.
• 2:47:35
  May the restorer restore you now.
• 2:47:38
  May the restorer restore you now.
• 2:47:41
  May the restorer restore you now in the name of Jesus.
• 2:47:48
  Wave your hands to Jesus and give Him praise.
• 2:47:56
  Hallelujah. Listen to this before I make the
• 2:48:00
  altar call. Please listen to this everyone.
• 2:48:06

  It's as simple as that. Praise the name of the Lord.
• 2:49:27
  So as you market women, all kinds of people, it will be an
• 2:49:31
  opportunity to minister Christ and then an opportunity they can
• 2:49:35
  join the service. Then once we're done, we'll
• 2:49:39
  minister outside in an orderly manner.
• 2:49:42
  We'll walk out a way and then we'll make sure it's a gift from
• 2:49:46
  me. It's my contribution for God's
• 2:49:48
  faithfulness and to say thank you to everyone and to our
• 2:49:54
  community. We believe in witnessing Jesus.
• 2:49:58
  So please make sure you pray along and make sure you are
• 2:50:01

• 2:50:09

• 2:50:12
  service. Praise the name of the Lord, but
• 2:50:15

• 2:50:50
  announcement that they are open particularly for
• 2:50:54
  instrumentalists this time around.
• 2:50:56
  They are not open to take singers, the vocalists.
• 2:51:00
  They are open to take the instrumentalists or the
• 2:51:03
  musicians as they call them. I'm trying to pull up the the
• 2:51:09
