- 0:01Hallelujah Koinonia global family, praise the Lord.
- 0:15I am delighted to be here in Nigeria in.
- 0:20Abuja. Thank you to God be all the
- 0:30glory. I want to give God thanks for my
- 0:34covenant brother and a man that God is using to do so much
- 0:37across the world. A man that God has given me the
- 0:41privilege to know for years. And I've seen what God is doing
- 0:45through him. In him, I thank God for his
- 0:49obedience at a time like this across the world.
- 0:53And so to this global faith convention, we want to just
- 0:56thank God for the Angel that God has used to bring us together in
- 1:02the persona and in the anointing and grace of Apostle Salman.
- 1:09Thank you, thank you, thank you. Could you help me give God
- 1:12praise for Apostle Salman? If that is how you thank God for
- 1:18Apostle Salman, we'll go with him to Kenya.
- 1:21I can assure you he is loved in Kenya and he's loved all over
- 1:30the world. I want to give God honor and
- 1:33glory for all those that have worked with him.
- 1:35To arrange this meeting, I'm being driven by an amazing young
- 1:40man called Yinka and David. They're taking great care of us.
- 1:43Apostle has spoiled us with amazing hospitality so we want
- 1:47to thank all the people involved from the ushering teams to the
- 1:51hosts to the hospitality. We have been immensely spoiled
- 1:56and we thank God for what we have learnt.
- 1:58We have learnt many lessons. Let me thank God for our Mama
- 2:03who I have come to love so much. Mama Bishop Funke, God bless you
- 2:11so much. I love you with the love of
- 2:14Christ. To my dear brother Apostle Felix
- 2:19Okor and your lovely wife all the way from South Africa.
- 2:22Much love my brother. We have known each other for
- 2:25years and now we are seeing God doing all these things we used
- 2:28to talk about 10 years ago. See what the Lord has done.
- 2:33Mayor, we thank God for your congratulations.
- 2:35Again, Papa, we thank God for you.
- 2:38It is so humbling. You have been here from the
- 2:40beginning of the convention until now.
- 2:42We are learning. To every servant of God, Bishop,
- 2:46from all the way from Benin, thank you so much.
- 2:50It's nice to meet each and everyone of you and to my friend
- 2:55Pastor Biaibo, I want to thank him because through him I got to
- 3:00meet Apostle Salman and I want to give God honor for him all
- 3:03the way from Enugu this morning. Are you ready for the word?
- 3:10I want to take my cue just before you sit down from John
- 3:12chapter 20 and verse 21 says, then Jesus said to them again,
- 3:20peace be unto you as my Father hath sent me, Even so I send
- 3:27you, Even so send I you. Father, may you help us this
- 3:34morning to understand the things you want to speak to us, to
- 3:38grasp truth, knowledge, the wisdom and understanding
- 3:42required for such a time as this.
- 3:45Help us, Father, through the tools and everything you've
- 3:48given us to come into the unraveling of your mysteries and
- 3:51the understanding and guidance of your word, to give us
- 3:55direction, to give us unction, to know what we must do in this
- 3:59season. We give you glory and honor and
- 4:01praise. In Jesus name we pray.
- 4:04Amen. Amen.
- 4:05You may have. Your seats.
- 4:06I want to thank God for all the people that have come from
- 4:08Kenya. I love every other country, but
- 4:10let me appreciate all my Kenya people that are here with us.
- 4:14Nigeria, can you help me appreciate Kenya that is in the
- 4:18house? God bless you all.
- 4:21Amen. Amen.
- 4:22Amen. And let me use the same tone to
- 4:26thank God for East Africa, for Uganda, for Tanzania, for
- 4:32Rwanda, for Burundi and even the Greater Eastern Africa, for our
- 4:39brothers and sisters from Ethiopia and from the DRC.
- 4:43We are one body in Christ. Amen.
- 4:48Yesterday was such a prolific day and amazing wisdom was given
- 4:53and and shared and I think we have a lot to recap and
- 4:59understand. One of the things Pastor Podgy
- 5:02said yesterday, and I love did you do you love Pastor Podgy?
- 5:05Thank you for that wonderful word.
- 5:07Man of God. One of the things he talked
- 5:09about is that for you to come and understand the spirit of a
- 5:12convention of this magnitude, which is a global convention,
- 5:16which is a platform that the entire world is using to
- 5:19analyze, to hear, to understand, to comprehend what God is doing
- 5:23at a time like this is that you must listen to the heart of the
- 5:28person that God gave the unction for this time.
- 5:31And in doing so, you must understand the vein in which God
- 5:34is moving through the heart of that man.
- 5:37And to be able to comprehend and then articulate with clarity in
- 5:41the areas He has given us to speak about how we must be able
- 5:46to bring wisdom on those matters.
- 5:50Apostle shared with us the. Five major mandates of the
- 5:54believer, the five major mandates of the believer, the
- 5:58mandates for souls, which is key and essential for every believer
- 6:04to understand that. And he gave us scripture for
- 6:07that in Matthew chapter 16, from verse 15 to 20, so that we can
- 6:13come into a time of global evangelism.
- 6:16He then told us that there's a mandate for fruitfulness for
- 6:20every believer. This helps us understand from
- 6:23John 15, verse 8 and verse 16 that we are to understand that
- 6:29He gave different gifts to the church, but there's also the
- 6:34mandate to bring the body of Christ to a point of maturity
- 6:39and stature. We get that from Ephesians 411
- 6:44to 15, that our work is to equip the Saints for the work of
- 6:49ministry by giving some to be apostles, some to be prophets,
- 6:54some to be evangelists, some pastors, and some teachers.
- 7:00Our work is to equip the Saints for the work of ministry, for
- 7:04the edifying of the body of Christ, the mandate to bring the
- 7:09body to a point of maturity and to the point of a stature that
- 7:15is pleasing to God. I'll be focusing on a bit of
- 7:18that tonight. But we also learned #4 that the
- 7:21mandate is to transform societies and nations to be the
- 7:25salt and the light, to transform societies and nations to be the
- 7:31salt and the light. Not by Christian fanaticism, but
- 7:36by good works. Those words are echoing in my
- 7:39spirit according to Matthew chapter 5 from verse 13 to 16,
- 7:44because it says you are the salt of the earth, but if the salt
- 7:48has lost its savour, wherewith shall it be salted?
- 7:54And finally, the mandate was to walk in love.
- 7:58The fifth point was that we must walk in love.
- 8:00According to John chapter 13, verse 34 and Colossians 314.
- 8:05The character of God is judged by the way the believer lives
- 8:09out their lives in understanding these five key things and this,
- 8:15these pillars by which we can then weave and understand this
- 8:19assignment. I've been given an assignment to
- 8:21bring out an understanding of knowledge, an understanding and
- 8:26knowledge regarding the king priest strategy.
- 8:31The king priest strategy. I'm going to speak about the
- 8:35Rebuilders and in doing so, I'm going to seek by the help of the
- 8:40Holy Spirit to emphasize because tonight I will delve more into
- 8:46the Nehemiah understanding. And tonight we will pray over
- 8:50the grace of Nehemiah for builders all over this place
- 8:54because I can tell in the last few days that God is releasing a
- 8:58grace for builders in this convention.
- 9:01In the name of Jesus, open your mouth and say I'm a builder.
- 9:07We will go into that understanding of the Nehemiah
- 9:10strategy and what God wants us to do at this time.
- 9:14But for now, let me put some focus on a foundation I want to
- 9:17lay in first Peter chapter 2 and verse 9.
- 9:22Bible says, but ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood
- 9:30#2A holy nation #3. A peculiar people #4 that you
- 9:40should show forth the praises of Him who has called you out of
- 9:46darkness into His marvellous light.
- 9:49An amazing fivefold understanding there of the King
- 9:53Priest dimension you have been. Chosen.
- 9:56You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood.
- 9:59Another version says kings who are.
- 10:02Priests, you are God's chosen treasure.
- 10:07The message version calls you kings who are priests.
- 10:13In Revelations chapter one verse 6 he says, and he has made us
- 10:19kings and priests to his God and Father, to him be glory and
- 10:26dominion forever and ever. And in Revelation.
- 10:30Chapter 5, verse 10 I'm just giving you these scriptures
- 10:32which will form. The foundation, he says, and has
- 10:36made us unto our God, kings and priests, and we shall reign on
- 10:45the earth. Prophecies have been given
- 10:51regarding Africa and particularly in essence, a
- 10:56consortium of people that find themselves.
- 10:58At this gathering. Colonia, global faith, is a
- 11:03convention that is speaking to the world, but let me lay some
- 11:07emphasis on Africa, on one particular element of a prophecy
- 11:12that has been given multiple times.
- 11:14I don't know if that prophecy got to Nigeria, but it's very,
- 11:17very popular in East Africa and we have tested it in the word it
- 11:22says. That when you look at the shape
- 11:23of Africa. Particularly sub-Saharan Africa.
- 11:27When you talk about East Africa, West Africa and Southern Africa,
- 11:34it says the prophecy says that it takes the form of a gun.
- 11:40When you look at that gun, West Africa is the trigger, East
- 11:46Africa is the bullet, and South Africa is the muzzle that
- 11:51occupies this entire barrel and this entire.
- 11:55Weapon. So I believe that we are seeing
- 12:00this prophetic word playing out even in a gathering like this.
- 12:04Recently, Apostle and a few friends were in Kenya and we are
- 12:08seeing that the Kingdom of God is beginning to unite in a
- 12:12certain understanding of what we must do at this time.
- 12:16And so we must fire from all cylinders.
- 12:20Let me tell you, Nigeria, you must make sure that the trigger
- 12:24is ready. East Africa, you must make sure
- 12:27that the bullet is ready. South Africa, you must make sure
- 12:31that the muzzle is ready. In other words, all of us need
- 12:35to. Prepare.
- 12:35And understand what must happen at this time.
- 12:39We must fire from all cylinders. That means we must be preaching
- 12:44this word in East Africa, We must be preaching this gospel in
- 12:49West Africa, we must be preaching this gospel in
- 12:52Southern Africa because we are not ashamed of the gospel of our
- 12:57Lord and. Savior Jesus Christ, any person
- 13:00who's going to come into a King priest understanding must not be
- 13:04ashamed of the Gospel. The King priest understanding is
- 13:09not a creation of man, it is a. Scriptural understanding and is
- 13:16not a creation of man. Let me take you now to Acts
- 13:21chapter one verse 1. He says doctor Luke says the
- 13:27former account I made all theophilus of all that Jesus
- 13:34began to do and teach. Her.
- 13:40Now you can't ignore this man Theophilus.
- 13:45Over 25% of the New Testament was written to.
- 13:49Him. There's much debate as to
- 13:52whether he was there or even if he existed, or he was if he was
- 13:56a figure of imaginative speech by Doctor Luke.
- 14:00Either way, his existence is not what is of importance right now.
- 14:03Some versions say that he called in the most excellent
- 14:07Theophilus, meaning that he was a person of status or high rank.
- 14:12The name Theophilus means that he is a lover of God or a friend
- 14:17of God. And Doctor Luke addresses him in
- 14:2125% of what is written in the New Testament most excellent.
- 14:27But my focus is not Theophilus, it's what the what Luke wrote to
- 14:32Theophilus and he is saying that my focus is now on the words
- 14:36that Jesus began to. Do.
- 14:40And to. Teach.
- 14:44My first point is I want to give you the.
- 14:46Resume of a Good Shepherd the resume the curriculum vitae of a
- 14:52Good Shepherd number one, the first thing you have to know
- 14:57about a Good Shepherd is they have to have the ability to
- 14:59teach and to do. The blueprint for that is shown
- 15:04in the words that we've just heard from Doctor Luke.
- 15:08I'll put it to you, Africa, that a season has come where we must
- 15:11begin to see the expression of the things that have been
- 15:16taught. And so we cannot get stuck in
- 15:19just the teaching. There has to be grace released
- 15:23to do the resume of a Good Shepherd is that there's a
- 15:28combination between teaching and doing.
- 15:34Jeremiah chapter 3 verse 15. Jeremiah chapter 3 verse 15 says
- 15:40I will give you shepherds after mine own heart.
- 15:45Pastors, according to mine own heart, says the Lord who shall
- 15:49feed you with knowledge and understanding.
- 15:57A Good Shepherd does not just excite you.
- 16:01A Good Shepherd has to feed you with knowledge and
- 16:05understanding. So we get our blueprint from the
- 16:08master Shepherd who Doctor Luke is explaining to Theophilus the
- 16:13Great and says that he began to do and to teach, to do and to
- 16:20teach. Are you learning something?
- 16:24Jesus was a great teacher. In John chapter 10 verse 11 he
- 16:28says I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd gives his life
- 16:34for the sheep, deals with devotion, deals with sacrifice,
- 16:41helps us understand how we will come into this king, priest,
- 16:44dimension and direction by observing the Good Shepherd.
- 16:49John chapter 10 verse 14 says I am the Good Shepherd and I know
- 16:55my. Sheep, and I'm known by my own.
- 17:00Every great minister is leading the sheep according to the
- 17:05pattern shown by the Good Shepherd.
- 17:10The second point I want to give you is that besides the resume
- 17:15of a Good Shepherd, the function of a Good Shepherd is that they
- 17:19will give you knowledge and understanding.
- 17:23Somebody say knowledge and understanding talk to me Nigeria
- 17:28say knowledge and understanding the real work of any shepherd is
- 17:35to give the sheep knowledge and understanding.
- 17:38Please bear with me as I throw these scriptures out for you.
- 17:42John chapter 21. Let's hear the discourse of
- 17:45Jesus to Peter as he's speaking to Peter verse 15 to verse 17.
- 17:52He says when they had. Eaten breakfast.
- 17:57When they had dined, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon son of
- 18:02Jonas, do you have the NKJV? If you do not appreciate it, but
- 18:05if not I can handle this. He says, Lovest thou me more
- 18:09than After that had breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon
- 18:13son of Jonah, do you love me more than these?
- 18:18He said to him, Lord, you know that I love you.
- 18:21He said to him, feed my Lambs. Feed my Lambs.
- 18:28In verse 17 or verse sorry, verse verse 16, sorry, he said
- 18:33to him a second time, Simon son of Jonah, do you love me?
- 18:37He said to him, Lord, you know I love you.
- 18:39He said to him, tend my sheep. The third thing he did is that
- 18:44he said to him Now in verse 17 he said to him the third time,
- 18:48Simon son of Jonah, do you love me?
- 18:52Peter was greed because he said to him the third time, do you
- 18:55love me? And he said to him, Lord, you
- 18:57know all things, you know that I love you.
- 19:00Jesus said to him, feed my sheep.
- 19:07The dimension here is feed my lambs, tend my sheep.
- 19:12Feed my sheep. It is as though Jesus.
- 19:17Was wanting us to come into an understanding of the three times
- 19:21of Peters denial, but now Peter is being transformed into the
- 19:24three dimensions of Peters restoration in not just feeding
- 19:29the lambs, not just tending the sheep, but feed my sheep.
- 19:37In order to understand this element that I want to bring
- 19:40out, we must delve a little bit into this understanding.
- 19:43Of knowledge and understanding. Any Good Shepherd must be able
- 19:51to bring an understanding and a knowledge of God to the people
- 19:55of God. Hosea chapter 4 verse 6 says
- 19:59that my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge because you
- 20:04have rejected knowledge. I reject you also as a priest
- 20:11for me. So it means that any shepherd
- 20:15who rejects knowledge is going to be rejected by God as a
- 20:20priest. Therefore, every minister, every
- 20:24shepherd who is worth their salt must be able to release
- 20:30knowledge and understanding. Now let me begin coming home #3
- 20:36any king, priest. Who?
- 20:38Rejects knowledge will be rejected by God.
- 20:43It tells me that knowledge is key and it is superior to.
- 20:50General knowledge this knowledge we are dealing about is a
- 20:53knowledge that is above the general knowledge that is on a
- 20:58person So a shepherd after Gods own heart will release knowledge
- 21:03and. Understanding.
- 21:07What do we deal with as shepherds?
- 21:09First Corinthians chapter 4 from verse one and two.
- 21:14The Bible says, let a man consider us as servants of
- 21:18Christ, and as stewards of the mysteries of God.
- 21:24To be able. To decipher this knowledge and
- 21:27to carry this knowledge will require a man to be able to be
- 21:31considered as a carrier of the mysteries of God.
- 21:36And verse 2 then begins to help us understand that such a person
- 21:41must be a good steward. It is required in stewards that
- 21:46they be found faithful. Glory be to God.
- 21:50So if we understand knowledge, then we have to ask the help of
- 21:55God as servants of Christ to dispel these mysteries so that
- 22:01God can help us to faithfully release to His people the
- 22:06knowledge on how to teach and to do.
- 22:13I put it to you in all humility that the true understanding of
- 22:21this king priest, the true exercise of a king priest,
- 22:27cannot stay in a cocoon of expression in theory only.
- 22:33I'll say that again. I want to put it to you in all
- 22:36humility that when you say you're a king priest, that you
- 22:39cannot stay only in the dimension of teaching.
- 22:42We must move into the understanding of doing this
- 22:47requires God to help us by the help of the Holy Spirit to be
- 22:51able to then bring this expression to bear.
- 22:56The key of this merger of king priest because it's not a
- 22:59statement that was being guessed into Scripture.
- 23:02It exists in Scripture. It's not just a teaching, but
- 23:07out of every teaching there has to be a doing Hallelujah,
- 23:13Colonia, family and to the world.
- 23:17We cannot be recipients only of information and the knowledge of
- 23:22God. There has to be a place where
- 23:24this knowledge must begin to be demonstrated by expression.
- 23:30Our function is to superimpose the.
- 23:33Kingdom of Heaven on the earth. And I want to make some
- 23:37arguments today, some legal arguments that will help us
- 23:40understand that we are not here to just dispel information only.
- 23:46Every grace that you have seen here will find its true joy in
- 23:51that. After you leave here, everything
- 23:53that has been spoken will find expression in Jesus name.
- 23:58That's a good point to say Amen. In other words, you shall not be
- 24:03a container of four days of information, but you shall be a
- 24:08release of the potential of God. For everything that has been
- 24:12spoken shall be seen expressed in a child of God.
- 24:16I declare in the name of Jesus. The people coming out of this
- 24:19meeting shall be an expression and the first fruit of
- 24:23everything that has been spoken, so that they can become the
- 24:27expression and the definition for others to.
- 24:29Read. I say over your life you will
- 24:34not just be a container of power, but the potential on the
- 24:38inside of you is going to find expression through the grace of
- 24:43God that is present in this meeting.
- 24:46And now we are going to see you becoming what has been spoken.
- 24:50It's not just teaching, it is doing.
- 24:53There has to be a place we come out of just hearing.
- 24:57There has to be a place we come out and begin to do what we have
- 25:00heard. May everything that is stopping
- 25:03you from becoming be under your feet in the name of Jesus.
- 25:07May every element that would stop you from becoming what God
- 25:11has called you to do, may it be under your feet now.
- 25:14In the name of Jesus, say aloud, Amen.
- 25:23Anyone following Master Jesus must following the expression of
- 25:29what we have seen and that expression that we were taught
- 25:32so powerfully last night. That is bigger than gold and
- 25:36silver. Silver and gold have I none, but
- 25:39what I have I give unto thee. It is a teaching and a doing
- 25:44dimension. Any carrier of the mysteries of
- 25:47God must be faithful in how we carry out this assignment.
- 25:52I want to put it to you as I hear in the Spirit right now
- 25:56that I don't know where you were last.
- 25:57Week. But I thank God that you're here
- 26:00this week. I thank God that you're
- 26:01listening to what is being spoken.
- 26:04Last week was the last week of a lack of expression of the things
- 26:08that you have heard. I come in the name of the Lord
- 26:11and declare everything that you hear you're going to become an
- 26:14expression of. Everything that you hear you're
- 26:17going to become an expression of.
- 26:20Everything that you hear you're going to become an expression
- 26:23of. If it happened with Peter and
- 26:25John on the way to the temple, we shall see it in our
- 26:28generation. If it happened with God on the
- 26:32persona of Jesus Christ, we're going to see it in expression in
- 26:35our generation. I want you to find somebody next
- 26:39to you and tell them you're going to become the expression
- 26:42of everything that you have heard.
- 26:47In other words, a season is about to come where you shall be
- 26:50like a written epistle. You shall be like a letter that
- 26:53is being read by people. You shall be an answer to a
- 26:57certain territory. You shall be an answer to a
- 27:01nation. Why?
- 27:03You are becoming the expression of the grace that has been
- 27:06spoken over the years. You're not just a container of
- 27:10the information. You are not just a retainer of
- 27:13the information. You are the expression of that
- 27:16information. In the name of Jesus, let me
- 27:19hear the loudest Amen from Abuja.
- 27:24The devil is a liar because there is.
- 27:28And I want to show you a temptation even in.
- 27:31In the body of Christ. To constantly make us just
- 27:35recipients of information and this information is no good when
- 27:40it just comes into you and stays in you.
- 27:42This grace that is upon you according to Ephesians chapter 3
- 27:47verse 2. Have you not heard of the
- 27:49dispensation of the grace of God that was given to me for you?
- 27:54Nothing sits on a man for the man.
- 27:59Anything sitting on a person is for a generation.
- 28:05So we declare tonight you will find expression.
- 28:08We declare this morning you will find expression for that gift.
- 28:12Platforms will open for that expression.
- 28:15Places will open for that expression.
- 28:18The Bible says that the harvest is plenty, but the laborers are
- 28:22few. We pray to the God of the
- 28:24harvest that he will send forth the Laborers Colonia Global
- 28:28Faith Convention. I'm so glad that I'm looking at
- 28:31people that will enter Pakistan and will enter China and will
- 28:35enter Korea and will go to the uttermost parts of the earth for
- 28:38the expression of the gospel. We are firing from all cylinders
- 28:43in South Africa, in East Africa, in West Africa, starting from
- 28:48here in Abuja, we declare the gun is ready to fire.
- 28:51Somebody shot fire three times. Hallelujah to God be the glory.
- 29:03Now this true exercise has to be expressed not in theory.
- 29:14But it has to be seen. It says study to show yourself a
- 29:20proof. Second Timothy 2:15 And to God,
- 29:24a Workman that need not be ashamed, rightly dividing,
- 29:29rightly dividing. Last night, Mama, you blessed me
- 29:32off my socks. Mama was talking about the Ark
- 29:35of the covenant, the presence of God.
- 29:38The reason we have to have this knowledge and understanding is
- 29:42because we have to understand what to do with what we have.
- 29:46Abinadab had the Ark in his house.
- 29:50He had two sons, Ooza and Ahiyo Levites.
- 29:57They were supposed to have the knowledge and the understanding
- 30:01because they had the. Presence for 20 years and it
- 30:05didn't do anything for their house.
- 30:13Listen, just because you've had something for long.
- 30:18Does not qualify you to tell me that you've now understood how
- 30:22it is used, because I will not know you by what you say, I will
- 30:26know you by your fruit. These people should have had
- 30:32knowledge and understanding. If you have the presence of God
- 30:36for. 20 years there should have been a sign in your house.
- 30:41About how to carry this presence, there should have been
- 30:44an understanding. Practicing something for many
- 30:47years and having something for many years does not translate
- 30:51into fruitfulness. I'm trying to show you that we
- 30:54have to have our minds ready to be transformed into the mind
- 30:58that was in Christ Jesus. So in understanding this, it
- 31:02means that there has to be knowledge about knowing what to
- 31:06do. And not just.
- 31:07Knowledge. But what to do with that
- 31:08knowledge which dives into a dimension called wisdom?
- 31:14God killed a priest who didn't know how to handle his presence.
- 31:23This same presence goes into a house called Obed Edom, and Obed
- 31:28Edom was a Korah height, He was a Korah height, and Korah
- 31:32heights had been removed from serving Moses because of what
- 31:35they had done. In, under, in, in, in
- 31:37undervaluing the office of Moses.
- 31:40And so they had been removed for their treason.
- 31:43But years later, years later, centuries later, we find a Korra
- 31:48height who had taken time to study and to understand how to
- 31:52treat the presence of God. In three months, in three months
- 31:58open Edom began to see fruit that had not been seen in
- 32:02Abhinav's house for 20 years. Ladies and gentlemen, its not a
- 32:05matter of time, its a matter of God, its a matter of
- 32:10understanding. So when I come and speak to you
- 32:13here, some of you who just came into this understanding two
- 32:17years ago, you will find that there are people who have had
- 32:20the presence for 20 years. But because you've understood,
- 32:23that is why in this Kingdom, overtaking is allowed.
- 32:26I'm so glad I'm speaking to overtake us this morning because
- 32:29Obed Edo began to see results in his house in three months
- 32:33because he took time to have knowledge and to have
- 32:36understanding. This thing will come because
- 32:38people have given of themselves to say I'm getting something
- 32:42that even though others have had salvation for 20 years, I've
- 32:46desired that my hunger will be to know more than others know.
- 32:50To spend time in his presence for intimacy so that we can see
- 32:54fruit. I prophecy over your life in the
- 32:56name of Jesus. That you shall be called an
- 32:59overcomer and you shall be called an overtaker.
- 33:02Nigeria, let me hear you shout aloud.
- 33:05Amen. I thank God for how long you've
- 33:13known God. But this is not about how long
- 33:16you've known God. This is about what you know
- 33:19about God. What do we know?
- 33:28It means that Obed Edom. Understood how to entreat the
- 33:32presence of God for advantage. I'm coming to the marketplace in
- 33:35a minute. He understood how to entreat God
- 33:38for advantage. His house understood how to
- 33:41entreat the presence. And by the way, the Bible says
- 33:44that the fame of what was happening in the House of Obed
- 33:48Edom even reached the palace. When you start to understand how
- 33:53to entreat the presence, you don't have to advertise
- 33:55yourself. The presence of God will
- 34:00advertise. You.
- 34:02The presence of God will open doors for you.
- 34:06There are places you won't have to take yourself anymore.
- 34:10There are doors God will open for you that man cannot shut.
- 34:14And when you understand how to entreat the presence of God, you
- 34:18will have advantage. By the end of this convention, I
- 34:22believe that the hunger I've seen here and what God has begun
- 34:26to do, there are people who begin to walk in this Nehemiah
- 34:29anointing in Nehemiah grace, not just to teach, but they will
- 34:32begin to do. Inside of you there's an
- 34:35expression we are about to see that has never been seen before
- 34:38on the earth. Inside of you, there's a person
- 34:41that has not been seen even by your family.
- 34:44I'm so glad that this convention was called because this is the
- 34:48expiry of your days of being hidden.
- 34:51I come in the name of the Lord and declare your season of
- 34:55discovery has come. I said your season of discovery
- 35:00has come. Inside of you are some
- 35:03buildings. Inside of you are some education
- 35:06curriculums. Inside of you is an expression
- 35:09of the things of God that no eye has seen.
- 35:11No ear has heard, nor has it entered into the hearts of man.
- 35:15What God has in store for you, There's about to be an explosion
- 35:21of dynamic proponent by God. I feel the anointing of God in
- 35:25this place. I want you to find two people
- 35:31and say I have. Help.
- 35:34I have help. Those hands that I'm speaking to
- 35:43right now prophetically are going to do what those hands
- 35:46have never done before. Those feet listen to me.
- 35:53The function of a shepherd is not to excite the sheep.
- 35:56The function of a shepherd is to release.
- 35:58Knowledge and understanding so in.
- 36:00Understanding some of the gifts that were given to the church,
- 36:03I'm now speaking prophetically. I declare before this year is
- 36:07over, those hands shall begin to do what those hands have never
- 36:09done before. Those feet are about to walk
- 36:13where those feet have never gone before.
- 36:15Those eyes are about to see what those eyes have never seen
- 36:19before. You're going to be walking as I
- 36:21wander on the earth. Aleppos Catalada, barredos
- 36:25Catalada, in the name of Jesus, the expiry of your season of
- 36:30being hidden has come. Your season of discovery is
- 36:33here. If I hear the loudest Amen, I'll
- 36:35move on to my next point. I usually hear when they tell us
- 36:43from Nigeria, let that Amen sound like Thunder.
- 36:47I've always wanted to say that Nigeria, let your Amen sound
- 36:50like Thunder. Say something is about to break
- 36:57in this place people are about to enter where they've never
- 37:01been before. Those feet have been prepared to
- 37:04go where they've never been before.
- 37:06Those hands are going to do what those hands have never done
- 37:09before. To God be the glory and honor.
- 37:12Lift those hands to the glory of His name and give Him praise all
- 37:16over this place. The devil is a liar.
- 37:29I must know how to entreat. Please sit down.
- 37:32I must know how to entreat the presence.
- 37:35Even as ACEO, even as a person that's dealing in the arena of
- 37:40oil and mining in every industry, I must understand how
- 37:45to entreat His presence in my company when God opens these
- 37:52doors. For us, we must have a knowledge
- 37:55and an understanding. I just want to lay a foundation.
- 37:58Tonight we go a little bit deeper into this.
- 38:00Nehemiah Grace, there is not. One person that shall live.
- 38:04Here. Without receiving the the
- 38:07Nehemiah grace and the Nehemiah anointing, please indulge me for
- 38:15a minute in the Spirit. I want to just speak it as I
- 38:18hear it in the spirit right now. I believe we're about to witness
- 38:22out of this continent the greatest Nehemiah grace that has
- 38:27ever been seen on the earth before.
- 38:32I believe what governments have not been able to do, children of
- 38:36the Kingdom are going to walk into dimensions where you will
- 38:39demonstrate the glory of God. I believe what history was never
- 38:45able to accomplish. And I thank God because I'll
- 38:47deal with seasons and times tonight.
- 38:49I thank God that it's all beginning in Africa.
- 38:52I thank God for the world, but somethings happening in Africa
- 38:55right now. So this Nehemiah Grace of
- 38:58Builders is going to be on everyone of you tonight in the
- 39:02name of Jesus, even since it's already on the inside of you.
- 39:08All we shall be doing tonight is activating something that's
- 39:11already on the inside of you. We shall stir it.
- 39:15When I was once, I was having a cup of tea.
- 39:19In Kenya, we like to drink tea. I know in Nigeria, you don't
- 39:22take tea much. Please sit down.
- 39:25In Kenya, we drink tea. It's one of the things we
- 39:29inherited from our colonialists. And.
- 39:35I like tea. So I was having my tea and I, I
- 39:40like it with sugar because I've not yet treated enough.
- 39:45And as I was taking my tea, it had been served to me and I, I
- 39:49took the sip of the tea and I said, oh, you didn't put sugar
- 39:53in my tea. And then.
- 39:56I was told there's sugar in there.
- 39:58I said no, there's no sugar. I've tasted it.
- 39:59I said, oh, I'm sorry. The problem is, it's there, but
- 40:03it's not stirred. We didn't come to give you
- 40:08anything you don't already have. Anything you need is already on
- 40:12the inside of you. Our function is just as the
- 40:16ministers of the gospel. We are stirring you up to begin
- 40:20to taste, to begin to become everything that God has called
- 40:23you to become. I need you to look at some sugar
- 40:25next to you and tell them you're coming out.
- 40:28You're going to become everything that God has called
- 40:30you to become. Stir it up.
- 40:32Stir it up in the name of Jesus. By the time we are done, you
- 40:39will taste, you will be tasted, the world will taste what you
- 40:45are. Carrying.
- 40:47It cannot be hidden any longer. I feel like speaking to somebody
- 40:52here that days of hiding that thing have come to an end.
- 40:57Some of you they will. Taste on Monday and say what
- 40:59happened to you. Tell them I was at Koinonia.
- 41:03Something happened at Koinonia. Something got stirred at
- 41:06Koinonia. I feel the grace of God.
- 41:09Something was stirred at Koinonia last week.
- 41:13You couldn't taste me, but you cannot ignore me any longer
- 41:17because I'm coming out of the closet.
- 41:18I'm coming out of hiding. Jesus is glorified in your life.
- 41:23Shout aloud. Amen, the grace to teach.
- 41:32And. To do the grace to teach.
- 41:39And to do. I love Qatar, to God be the
- 41:45glory. Please sit down, lift up your
- 41:47hands. I sense a grace that is just
- 41:49coming over people right now. Yeshua, come on, lift your
- 42:16hands. Sing Yeshua.
- 42:26To teach. And to do, to teach and to do.
- 43:04Among those and thou, yes, sure, yes, sure,
- 43:31yes, sure. It's not a matter of time.
- 43:48It's a matter of God. Oh, that I may know him.
- 43:57And the power of his resurrection.
- 44:02Put. Those hands before God, right
- 44:20now, just put those hands before God.
- 44:21Just let God begin to see those hands and say, Father, may these
- 44:25hands become the expression of heaven on the earth.
- 44:32May these hands. Do.
- 44:35What they've never done before. Just one more minute of worship.
- 45:15Please have your seats. In the presence of the Lord,
- 45:20what must we do? About this knowledge and
- 45:25understanding how? Shall this thing be?
- 45:34The Holy Ghost shall come upon you.
- 45:43The Holy Ghost shall come upon you.
- 45:47We must figure out the mind of God on a matter.
- 45:53That's what we must do. So the fourth thing that I want
- 45:57to share with you is that we must follow.
- 46:00The pattern there is a pre described pattern that has been
- 46:06set that needs to be understood. Hey, this is there's a heavy
- 46:14presence here I'm trying to navigate in the spirit.
- 46:20I'm really doing my best. The Holy Ghost The Holy Ghost is
- 46:27beginning to accelerate people into destiny.
- 46:31He. Called Prados Catalada.
- 46:37Please help those that are coming under the anointing.
- 46:39The Holy Ghost is. Breaking patterns breaking,
- 46:43delay breaking breaking. All over the place.
- 46:57We're firing from all cylinders. SW E.
- 47:03We're not ashamed of the gospel. It's so beautiful, I can see it
- 47:17that architects would just be walking around their building
- 47:20and their contractors are getting healed.
- 47:25Grace is coming on civil engineers.
- 47:27Grace is coming on people in the marketplace, Joseph, who will
- 47:38enter and provide Pharaohs with answers to fiscal policies.
- 47:48Answers to governments are in the body of Christ.
- 47:52Answers to economic crises are in the body of Christ.
- 47:55Answers to nations are in the body of Christ.
- 47:59This thing must break. When you see God bring us
- 48:17together like. This its an answer to the body
- 48:20of Christ that the East meets W meets South.
- 48:27It's an answer to the unity and to the prophetic and Apostolic
- 48:31presbytery beginning. To come together because the
- 48:34Apostle cannot go where the Prophet has not seen.
- 48:50Oh, be lifted. Above all other gods, we lay our
- 48:58crowds. And worship you, Father.
- 49:06O be lifted apart every other crown we lay on house and
- 49:19worship O. Glorious scarf.
- 49:28We praise. And we?
- 49:37Worship. Let me drive this a little bit
- 49:44further. We must follow the pattern.
- 49:50Please be seated. Thank you, Holy Spirit.
- 49:55Thank you, Holy Spirit, you're so beautiful.
- 50:02In Hebrews 85 it tells Moses, Moses, you must build according
- 50:07to the pattern. Who is the pattern?
- 50:14The Good Shepherd is the pattern.
- 50:25I'll take two minutes to deal with this.
- 50:26I hear in the spirit. I just want to be sensitive this
- 50:29morning. I hear in the spirit that the
- 50:32woman in John chapter 4, she said we have worshipped in this
- 50:38mountain for long. I want to pair that together
- 50:42with the House of Abhinada. Having the presence for long and
- 50:48what you do with the presence are two very different.
- 50:50Things. Jesus says you have worshipped,
- 51:00but you've worshipped what you don't know.
- 51:08God help us to appropriate your gospel with such accuracy and
- 51:14such understanding as your shepherds that we give your
- 51:18children knowledge and understanding, knowledge and
- 51:29understanding. Where do we get this knowledge
- 51:37and understanding? I mean Isaiah Chapter 11 verse
- 51:41one. Let's understand the mind of God
- 51:43on a matter. He says they shall come forth.
- 51:48From the road. Forth a road from the.
- 51:51Stem of justice. And a branch shall go out of his
- 51:56roots. This branch I'm dealing with
- 52:02knowledge and understanding. Verse 2 The Holy Ghost shall
- 52:05come upon you. It says the.
- 52:08Spirit of the Lord. Shall rest upon him.
- 52:12I'm talking to CEOs, talking to bank owners.
- 52:20I'm talking to industry shakers, Holy Ghost.
- 52:24Field industry shakers nehemiahs that the Holy Ghost field on one
- 52:35hand they hold the sword of. Truth.
- 52:38The sword of the Spirit, and with the other hand they work.
- 52:48The days of being ashamed of your Jesus at the workplace have
- 52:51come to an end. We are not ashamed to call him
- 52:56Lord of Lords and King of our lives.
- 53:00We are not ashamed of the Gospel.
- 53:08Says They shall come forth from the road of Jesse, and the stem
- 53:13shall come out of that road, A road from the stem of Jesse.
- 53:16A branch shall grow out of his roots, which means if Jesus, he
- 53:21is the master shepherd, if Jesus is the Good Shepherd, then the
- 53:25pattern must be that I am the vine, you are the branches.
- 53:28A branch shall grow out of his roots, the ecclesia, the church,
- 53:37and this branch in verse 2 of Isaiah Chapter 11 begins to
- 53:43describe the seven expressions. Of the Spirit of God.
- 53:47The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him.
- 53:50Somebody say the Spirit of God is resting upon me as that is
- 53:57happening. He's resting on some of you are
- 53:59fresh right now, a new dimension of the Holy Ghost.
- 54:04The manifold wisdom of God. Resting upon you, then, he says,
- 54:09the Spirit of wisdom, the Spirit.
- 54:17Of understanding. Wait a minute.
- 54:20How shall this thing be? There's a dimension of
- 54:23understanding that is a spirit. So understanding is a spirit.
- 54:37That's why I told you it's not a matter.
- 54:39Of time. It's a matter of God.
- 54:44That you could have walked in here without understanding on
- 54:47Monday, but by Friday something has come on you.
- 54:53You begin to understand things you couldn't understand two
- 54:56weeks ago. Listen, I need you to understand
- 55:01and capture this because its important, because what we need
- 55:04to do, we don't have time but we have God.
- 55:09So on day one, you will be in prison in the morning, but by 10
- 55:14AM you're being escorted into a place for a haircut, and by noon
- 55:21you have bodyguards that are escorting you to the palace.
- 55:23You came out of prison. You don't have time.
- 55:27You don't have time to learn certain protocols.
- 55:29You don't have time to learn certain things.
- 55:31The place God is about to accelerate some of us, He's
- 55:34moving you from that prison straight into a meeting with
- 55:37Pharaoh. If you think you have time for
- 55:4210 years of a PHDI love education and you must get it.
- 55:46But there are some things that are coming as an emergency.
- 55:53There are places some of you will find yourselves before
- 55:55December this year and you don't have the time to go and finish
- 56:01certain things in the university.
- 56:03What must come upon you is a spirit of understanding.
- 56:07I love Qatar, today, in the name of Jesus, let this mind be in
- 56:13you. Which was in Christ Jesus
- 56:21understanding. There's a dimension of the
- 56:22spirit. There's a dimension of
- 56:24understanding that is a spirit. Please let's keep that up so
- 56:30that I can be able to bring it to a close.
- 56:31He says, he says the spirit of wisdom, the spirit, spirit of
- 56:37and the spirit of understanding. Then he says the spirit of
- 56:41cancer, the spirit of might, the spirit of knowledge.
- 56:50Wait a minute. All of a sudden I'm discovering
- 56:54that knowledge is a spirit. Listen to me carefully, Caliper.
- 57:05Do you have? Thank you Nigeria, for making me
- 57:08feel free. I'm feeling free to preach.
- 57:12Do you have the message version by any chance?
- 57:18Because I want to show you something.
- 57:20But it says the spirit of knowledge and the spirit of the
- 57:24fear of the Lord. So understanding is a spirit.
- 57:26So when it says that the shepherds will give to you
- 57:29knowledge and understanding, the greatest thing a shepherd can do
- 57:33is pray. Father, open their eyes that
- 57:36they may begin to see a spirit. The Spirit of the Lord shall
- 57:40come upon you and be able to bring you into a place of
- 57:43understanding. Some things that had refused to
- 57:46enter, you will understand. I'm trying to say what has taken
- 57:52people 100 years to build the grace of Nehemiah Shortenstein,
- 57:59because the Spirit of the Lord has come upon you.
- 58:03Spirit of understanding, the spirit of knowledge.
- 58:07Knowledge is a spirit. How do I know?
- 58:10Take me to Daniel chapter one, verse 10.
- 58:13I'm in the marketplace now. I'm in the marketplace because
- 58:19of time. I don't think I'll be able to
- 58:20read all of Daniel chapter one verse 10, Daniel 110.
- 58:31And the chief unit said to Daniel, I fear the Lord my king
- 58:34was appointed your food and drink.
- 58:36Why should you? Why should he see your faces
- 58:38looking worse? They refused to eat the diet of
- 58:40Babylon, verse 18, because of time.
- 58:48Because of time, verse 18. At the end of the days when the
- 58:54king had said that they should be brought in, the chief unit
- 58:56brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar continued.
- 59:00The king interviewed them, and among them all none was found
- 59:03like Daniel, Hananiah, Mitchell, and Azariah.
- 59:07Therefore they served before the king.
- 59:09I'll tell you what had happened. In all matters of wisdom and
- 59:14understanding about which the king examined them, he found
- 59:18them 10 times better. These boys are just coming to
- 59:24Babylon, but they were found 10 times better because the Bible
- 59:29declares that God gave them knowledge.
- 59:35The advantage you're going to have in the marketplace is not
- 59:37by might, not by power, but you're going to receive the
- 59:42spirit of knowledge and the spirit of understanding.
- 59:47That will cause overtaking and will cause pursuing and will
- 59:52cause recovery for the Kingdom of God, if you believe what I'm
- 59:55saying. Shout.
- 59:56Aloud Amen good are we together so far?
- 1:00:06Are you are we together? Good.
- 1:00:08Please have your seats. I want to use another 15 minutes
- 1:00:12to just show you something and then I'm out of your way and
- 1:00:15I'll see you tonight after that so.
- 1:00:18I must come to an understanding that there's a dimension of
- 1:00:23understanding that is a spirit, and there's a dimension of
- 1:00:27knowledge that is a spirit. If you don't.
- 1:00:29Understand this, you will not. Understand the Nehemiah
- 1:00:31dimension. You have to understand this.
- 1:00:36So I'm trying to show you what Pastor Podge was trying to show
- 1:00:38us yesterday, because this is the goal that you need in the
- 1:00:42marketplace, yes. This is the goal you're going to
- 1:00:47need in the marketplace, being the salt and the light of the
- 1:00:52world. Second Corinthians chapter 10
- 1:00:57verse 3 to 6. I know you don't have the
- 1:01:01message version out of love to show it to you.
- 1:01:03It says that the world is unprincipled.
- 1:01:07The world doesn't fight fair. It's dog eat dog out there.
- 1:01:15And then it says that the weapons of our warfare are not
- 1:01:17Colonel, thank you. They found it.
- 1:01:20It says the world is unprincipled.
- 1:01:23Its dog eat dog out there. The world doesn't fight fair.
- 1:01:28That's why when you come to church, we give you small, small
- 1:01:31battle. So when you come to church, we
- 1:01:35talk about you and we backbite you.
- 1:01:37We're just giving you practice for the world.
- 1:01:40I'm just joking. It says the tools of our trade
- 1:01:44are not for marketing or for manipulation, but therefore
- 1:01:47demolishing that entirely massively corrupt culture.
- 1:01:57We use our powerful God tools for smashing warped
- 1:02:03philosophies. I want to come to a point here
- 1:02:07that's important. It's for smashing.
- 1:02:12Powerful for smashing warped philosophies.
- 1:02:17I need some help from one of you.
- 1:02:18Could you come with your guitar? Sir, please, if you don't mind,
- 1:02:24let me show you something. Thank you, son.
- 1:02:34God bless you. You can put your book here.
- 1:02:37Now I want you to lift your guitar.
- 1:02:40Just lift it up like this. Let's you and I look at
- 1:02:42something. Take it off.
- 1:02:45Just lift it up like this. Let's look at it like as if
- 1:02:47we're looking at a piece of wood.
- 1:02:48Hold it with both hands. Hold it with both.
- 1:02:51Hands, let's lift it. So, so if I'm a Carpenter, I
- 1:02:56could look at this and say if I'm an amateur, I could look at
- 1:03:00this and say this is this is perfect, this is straight.
- 1:03:05But if this is a seasoned Carpenter, he could look at it
- 1:03:08and say, no, this is not good. It's warped.
- 1:03:14So with my naked eye, I'm looking and I'm wondering, what
- 1:03:17are you seeing that I'm not seeing?
- 1:03:19And he can look and say it's not right.
- 1:03:21I'm not going to use it for this purpose.
- 1:03:23It's warped. This is what we call warped
- 1:03:25philosophies. Things that sound true but are
- 1:03:29not true, that you must have the spirit of disarmament in this
- 1:03:36time and age to be able to know. What a warped philosophy.
- 1:03:39Is because. Satans greatest.
- 1:03:42Trick is to. Try and demonstrate to a
- 1:03:44generation that he doesn't. Exist.
- 1:03:47This is what the weapons of our warfare are for.
- 1:03:50They are for coming to the Master Builder and.
- 1:03:54Using him to cause correct and make sure if he says its warped
- 1:03:58we are dumped and agree it is warped.
- 1:04:04That they are for demolishing the entirely massive corrupt
- 1:04:07culture. We use our God tools for
- 1:04:09smashing work philosophies. For instance, when Doctor Monroe
- 1:04:16came to Kenya, we had just gone through a terrorism attack.
- 1:04:20We were coming and saying these people are enemies, he says.
- 1:04:23Julian, people are not the enemies.
- 1:04:25The problem is you're dealing with a philosophy.
- 1:04:29Terrorism is a philosophy. Are you understanding what I'm
- 1:04:32saying? So he said.
- 1:04:33The problem is you cannot kill terrorism with a bullet.
- 1:04:39A philosophy must be countered with a higher idea.
- 1:04:45So. Don't look at a philosophy and
- 1:04:47think that you can attack it with a bullet or think that you
- 1:04:51can attack it in a prayer closet.
- 1:04:52No, God must introduce His truth to what?
- 1:04:56Looks like truth. But isn't truth?
- 1:04:58Are you understanding what I'm saying?
- 1:05:00So our God. Tools are for smashing warp
- 1:05:05philosophies where somebody wants to introduce a curriculum
- 1:05:09into your education. Sector, it sounds.
- 1:05:14Good, but its going to teach your girls that they could have
- 1:05:21woken up this morning as a boy. Its a warped.
- 1:05:29Philosophy. I'll shock you by telling you
- 1:05:32that in Kenya, the most expensive schools right now out
- 1:05:36of a survey done in Africa, of the top 25 most expensive
- 1:05:40schools, 12 were found in Kenya out of the 1211 were founded as
- 1:05:44missionary schools. It means that the Kingdom of God
- 1:05:49carries the best curriculums on earth.
- 1:05:52But somewhere along the way we lost a mission and found out
- 1:05:57that the world loves what we have.
- 1:05:59We chose to go with dollars versus mission.
- 1:06:04So for God to use us in the marketplace, we must understand
- 1:06:08that our God tools are so that when we bring an education
- 1:06:12curriculum to be able to change how the world is looking at
- 1:06:15things, it cannot be an education curriculum that is
- 1:06:18purely driven by bottom. Line No.
- 1:06:21It must have cause to it. Are you understanding what I'm
- 1:06:24saying? It must be driven by 'cause when
- 1:06:26we talk about housing and settling people, it must be
- 1:06:30building with A cause so that we are solving.
- 1:06:37The warped philosophy, I put it to you as Nehemiah rise here
- 1:06:42tonight, people are going to invade every sector of our
- 1:06:46society and will begin to bring the truth of God.
- 1:06:50For every warped philosophy that is even in your office place,
- 1:06:53God is going to begin using you with his wisdom to change it to
- 1:06:57suit his purposes. Say aloud Amen.
- 1:06:59Thank you Sir. So we come and start to
- 1:07:08understand this understanding, this knowledge.
- 1:07:13The Bible says God so loved the world the same time I hear James
- 1:07:18for for friendship with the world is an enmity with God.
- 1:07:21Those are two different worlds that are being talked about. 1
- 1:07:23is Chronos, the other is eons. What God doesn't like is the
- 1:07:27philosophies, the eons, the ideologies of men that remove
- 1:07:32men from His truth and put men in an abstract truth that looks
- 1:07:36like truth but is not truth. So what must we do?
- 1:07:43We must release understanding so.
- 1:07:48You even delve in the Kingdom into matters of righteousness.
- 1:07:54You begin to. Enter the place of God, opening
- 1:07:56your eyes to understand what is righteousness.
- 1:08:01Because the throne. Of God is built on righteousness
- 1:08:04and justice. You can't ignore this truth as a
- 1:08:11king priest, no. You can't.
- 1:08:15There's a man called Hazel. Called Kegel.
- 1:08:19Sorry not Hazel. Kegel was a great philosopher.
- 1:08:23This great philosopher came and said that man has a problem
- 1:08:27because man has to deal with the consciousness of sin and that
- 1:08:31consciousness of sin is a problem because every time he
- 1:08:35tries to attempt how to move to his next level, this
- 1:08:37consciousness is disturbing him. So Kegel said I must remove God.
- 1:08:42In my philosophy, he removed God because if you remove God, you
- 1:08:46remove Satan, and if you remove Satan, you remove sin.
- 1:08:50And if you remove sin, you remove the consciousness of sin.
- 1:08:53I'm going somewhere, just come with me.
- 1:08:55So the Bible begins to help us understand what did he do?
- 1:08:58He created a new truth. Ladies and gentlemen, this is
- 1:09:03one of the most dangerous things to hear in a generation.
- 1:09:07A generation that loves to respond when you ask them
- 1:09:10something and they say, well, it doesn't matter.
- 1:09:12That is my truth. I want you to look at your
- 1:09:14neighbor and tell them you don't have a truth.
- 1:09:18The only truth is Jesus Christ, Ababa says.
- 1:09:24He said I am the way, the truth. And the life.
- 1:09:29So no person can come and begin to introduce another truth.
- 1:09:33So a king priest must be guided by the truth regarding why
- 1:09:38they're getting into the project that they're getting into and
- 1:09:41doing the things that they're getting into.
- 1:09:43I'll deal with more of that tonight.
- 1:09:45Righteousness. So Kegel decided let me remove
- 1:09:48God, because if I can't remove God, I remove Satan.
- 1:09:51If I can remove Satan, I remove sin.
- 1:09:54If I remove sin, I remove consciousness.
- 1:09:56So I remove men feeling guilty about how they're doing life.
- 1:10:02The law of relativism, relativism, relative truth.
- 1:10:06There's no such thing as relative truth.
- 1:10:09Truth is Jesus, truth is a person for every king priest
- 1:10:14that is under the sound of my voice, that truth is Jesus
- 1:10:17Christ. Let me hear you shout out loud.
- 1:10:19Amen to that truth. So knowledge and understanding
- 1:10:25is the heart of the matter. I lose my last 10 minutes or 12
- 1:10:30minutes to say this in Africa right now.
- 1:10:35In Africa right now. At this time.
- 1:10:41God is doing something at this time.
- 1:10:46A new thing doesn't dismiss the old.
- 1:10:48No, it comes into relationship with what Christ has already
- 1:10:53started doing. Why is there so much bashing
- 1:10:57within Christendom? Why is there so much bashing
- 1:11:01within Christendom? Let me attempt to just deal with
- 1:11:04this. I agree that righteousness is a
- 1:11:07gift. Yes, I agree.
- 1:11:09Romans 517 Righteousness is a gift.
- 1:11:13It's not earned by works. Righteousness is completely
- 1:11:17given to us as a gift. We are justified by faith,
- 1:11:22therefore it is by grace in Christ.
- 1:11:25This is true Proverbs chapter 14.
- 1:11:30Verse 34 though, makes it difficult for me to reconcile
- 1:11:34that I should only accept it as a gift.
- 1:11:37It says righteousness exalts a nation, righteousness exalts a
- 1:11:45nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.
- 1:11:49Proverbs 29. To.
- 1:11:50When the righteous are in what authority what happens?
- 1:11:57The people rejoice, so I. Can't stay in a dimension of
- 1:12:03righteousness of just receiving the gift.
- 1:12:07No, I must investigate righteousness to understand that
- 1:12:11as much as I've been taught, I must begin to do righteousness.
- 1:12:17Oh Lord help me. Righteousness is not something I
- 1:12:23sit on just. Because it's a gift, Sir.
- 1:12:26I need somebody to bring me. Can you bring me David?
- 1:12:31Can you bring me your phone? Just bring me your phone.
- 1:12:35I'm going to assume this phone was.
- 1:12:36Wrapped I assume this is a gift. Just stand here.
- 1:12:41But if I don't unwrap this gift, this is what is happening in the
- 1:12:46church. Many people are walking with
- 1:12:48righteousness as a gift, but just like a binada, they don't
- 1:12:53know what to do with the gift. The purpose for which the
- 1:13:01offenders was written to was to be able to understand.
- 1:13:04That the gift was not just supposed to be received and sit
- 1:13:07dormant Calibra dos Qatar. This gift must be unwrapped.
- 1:13:15This gift must be unwrapped to understand.
- 1:13:18What? Is this gift that I received
- 1:13:22Jesus? Why have you allowed me to go
- 1:13:24through seasons, to go through the valley of the shadow of
- 1:13:27death? Why did I go through Potiphar's
- 1:13:29house, come out and go into jail?
- 1:13:33The unwrapping of the gift called righteousness.
- 1:13:36Is something we must all begin to do and examine.
- 1:13:40That is why we've come for Koinonia to go deeper into
- 1:13:43understanding that. I'm not going to get into an
- 1:13:46argument about righteousness. Being a gift, that's not the end
- 1:13:49purpose of righteousness. When I begin to come out of
- 1:13:54righteousness, I move into another dimension.
- 1:13:57Of my salvation after sanctify, after justification, I'm moving
- 1:14:02to sanctification and sanctification and and to meet
- 1:14:06with the righteousness of. Jesus, take me to Luke 13.
- 1:14:11Let's close this so that you understand what I'm trying to
- 1:14:14say. Luke chapter 13 from verse 10.
- 1:14:23What do I do with my gift? I have righteousness.
- 1:14:27Listen, I think the church, because this is a platform that
- 1:14:31is being listened to globally, I think the church must accept,
- 1:14:35particularly the church in Africa.
- 1:14:38We must accept something. And what I'm about to tell you
- 1:14:42is an opinion. So it must be tested because
- 1:14:44it's a son of man. That person, when they begin to
- 1:14:47under change because righteousness has stepped in,
- 1:14:50que pradose catala daba ABBA has held you back.
- 1:14:53From 1994. 18 years is a long time let me say something
- 1:14:59accepting that this is how things are but the righteousness
- 1:15:03exalts our nation, our. Levels catala daba righteousness
- 1:15:07found them. No, that is not the formula of
- 1:15:09righteousness. So we come in the name of the
- 1:15:11Lord and declare whatever has held your home for 18 years.
- 1:15:16Righteousness has come into town and we declare in the name of
- 1:15:19Jesus. You must be loosed from it.
- 1:15:24I dare you to walk 2 steps from where you are and say the same
- 1:15:27way I have walked is the same way I have left this thing
- 1:15:30behind. Now follow me in the name of
- 1:15:32Jesus. Say I'm loosed from every
- 1:15:34infirmity, I'm loosed from diabetes, I'm loosed from
- 1:15:40poverty, I'm loosed from cancer. But I like what came after that.
- 1:15:48Come with me, look at the next verse.
- 1:15:52And he laid. His hands on her and immediately
- 1:15:54some there will be a reference point on which you are made
- 1:16:00straight that before you used to walk in society and people could
- 1:16:04see there was a bent has kissed mercy.
- 1:16:08And God is saying you have entered a season now when that
- 1:16:10bent is about to be corrected. There's about to be a correction
- 1:16:14of your family flaws. There's about to be a correction
- 1:16:17of the way you've worked before. You are loosed from that thing
- 1:16:20in the name of Jesus. He says he laid his hands on her
- 1:16:23and immediately she was made straight.
- 1:16:26I prophecy right now. Some are online, some are here
- 1:16:29right now shouting. I didn't hear you Nigerian shout
- 1:16:34immediately shouting me the the The thing is behind me.
- 1:16:41I want you to say whatever it is, I'll give you 10 seconds to
- 1:16:45praise God for it. Say right now it's leaving in
- 1:16:48the name of Jesus. Ah.
- 1:16:58Continue to verse 14 Then the Bible says, But the ruler of the
- 1:17:06synagogue answered with indignation, because Jesus had
- 1:17:12healed on the Sabbath. He said to the crowd there are 6
- 1:17:15days on which men ought to work, therefore come and be healed on
- 1:17:18them and not on the Sabbath day. But heaven is about to answer
- 1:17:23for you. For too long you've had to
- 1:17:27answer for yourself. But look for three people and
- 1:17:30say Heaven will speak for me. He says, Does not each one of
- 1:17:38you on the Sabbath lose his ox or donkey from the stall, and
- 1:17:43lead it away to water it? Continue, please.
- 1:17:46Then he says so ought not this woman being a daughter of
- 1:17:52Abraham. Jesus introduced legality who
- 1:17:56has been bound for about to be set free in Kenya is that I put
- 1:18:01it to you, I love governments. God bless every leader in
- 1:18:03authority, but there are things that God has left for the
- 1:18:06display of the church. Ephesians 310 says that now the
- 1:18:10manifold wisdom of God be made known by the church to the
- 1:18:13principalities. This thing that has bothered you
- 1:18:16for 18 years, I come in the name of the Lord and say it is
- 1:18:20broken. I said I come in the name of the
- 1:18:24Lord and declare it is broken. Tonight as you receive the
- 1:18:29Nehemiah anointing, some of you are going to walk out into Abuja
- 1:18:33a new man, a new woman. They will look at you and say,
- 1:18:37but yesterday you had a bench. You say I went for Koinonia.
- 1:18:41Things were sorted out in Koinonia.
- 1:18:44I've understood righteousness. I've understood justice.
- 1:18:48I've understood. Salvation.
- 1:18:50I've understood the gift that is in Christ Jesus in my life.
- 1:18:54I want to declare You shall walk out of here without our bands in
- 1:18:58the name of Jesus, say 3 amens like Thunder.
- 1:19:09And what you have going, what you have accomplished, I like
- 1:19:13what Pastor Pojo was taking us through last night.
- 1:19:15When you've accomplished it, Jesus says, Simon, Simon, I've
- 1:19:19prayed for you that your faith will not fail you.
- 1:19:21And when you come out, strengthen your brethren.
- 1:19:27Nigeria. Come, David.
- 1:19:32Minister Dam, come. Is it?
- 1:19:34Is this minister who am I looking at here?
- 1:19:36Come, come, Sir. Nigeria, I want you to know
- 1:19:40you're not coming out alone. Come, daughter Mezza, you're not
- 1:19:46coming out alone. You're coming out with East
- 1:19:50Africa. He said when you come out,
- 1:19:58strengthen your brethren, Nigeria, your victory is our
- 1:20:02victory. Our Lavacos, Qatar, Kenya, your
- 1:20:08victory is Nigeria's victory. When you have come out,
- 1:20:12strengthen. It's not about your personal
- 1:20:17that when the woman had come out.
- 1:20:19Righteousness continued walking and found blind buttermayers
- 1:20:22didn't leave him on the ground, found Zacchaeus didn't leave him
- 1:20:26in the house. That way, he said salvation has
- 1:20:28come to this house. When salvation came to the
- 1:20:30house, generosity. Came to his house.
- 1:20:34When the Holy Ghost had come upon them, the people gave until
- 1:20:37none of them had need. Listen to me, Kingdom of God,
- 1:20:42the days of people amassing personal wealth.
- 1:20:45Until they don't know what to do with it.
- 1:20:47Have come to an end. Righteousness exhausts a nation.
- 1:20:51When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice,
- 1:20:54which means your days of walking into town and people look down
- 1:20:58have come to an end. When you walk into town, there
- 1:21:02shall be rejoicing because people will know if Mama Funke
- 1:21:07is in town, it means food has come.
- 1:21:13They'll be looking at Apostle Salman and say if he has entered
- 1:21:16town, not only is he teaching. He is also doing calabarados,
- 1:21:22Qatar. God wants to exalt the nations
- 1:21:27through the Church Jesus began to teach.
- 1:21:34And. To do Pastor Poji said the
- 1:21:41church in Africa is no longer poor, but the people in the
- 1:21:46churches are still poor. We have a picture of what it's
- 1:21:50supposed to be, but we have not yet fully grasped it.
- 1:21:56The Holy Spirit wants to make a demonstration that the next time
- 1:22:00you come to Kenya, you'll be asking where are the poor people
- 1:22:07and we will say they're not here anymore.
- 1:22:12The next time we come to Atlanta mayor, we'll be asking where
- 1:22:16are, where are the poor people? You'll say, not here, the
- 1:22:22church, the church came into town.
- 1:22:29That when they see the righteous, they shall be
- 1:22:32rejoicing. That when we see Nathaniel Basi
- 1:22:38grow in Nigeria, we are rejoicing.
- 1:22:40About him in Kenya. Because the unity of the Church,
- 1:22:46it's going to be that your victory is our victory.
- 1:22:54No individualism will make it in the next dimension.
- 1:22:59I tell you, we break the spirit of individualism.
- 1:23:07Solo Rangers thinking you can do this thing alone.
- 1:23:11No, Jesus began to teach and to do.
- 1:23:17Lift up your hands. Lord, we give you glory and
- 1:23:29honor. We lift our hands in worship.
- 1:23:37We exalt your holy name. Lord, we give you glory.
- 1:23:59You are. You are the great.
- 1:24:03You do me a call so great there is no one else like you.
- 1:24:06There is no 1. Else there is no one else like.
- 1:24:19You, you are great. Come on Abuja one more time,
- 1:24:32leave those hands and give them. Worship you are you are brave.
- 1:24:37You do me. Father, there is no the words.
- 1:24:49The words you gave me. The words you gave me.
- 1:24:54I have given them, Let these words, let these words become
- 1:25:02fortified in the hearts of your children, that they may begin to
- 1:25:07teach and to do in the name of the Father, the Son, and the
- 1:25:14Holy Ghost, Amen. Keep clapping, keep clapping,
- 1:25:32keep clapping. Keep celebrating Jesus.
