  Praise God. Hallelujah. Can we open to 1 Corinthians
• 0:27
  chapter 12? 1 Corinthians chapter 12, verse 1
• 0:31
  to 11. 1 Corinthians, we are still talking about
• 0:34
  the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Amen. And then
• 0:38
  we appreciate all the pastors. Pastor Fred. Pastor

• 0:56
  this gathering. Amen. How many of us have been
• 0:59
  blessed so far in this meeting? Praise God. Hallelujah.
• 1:04
  Yes. You know, after the first day I turned and
• 1:09
  I told Pastor Ima, okay, after service, after
• 1:12
  everything, you know, we're at the back. I told
• 1:15
  him, I said, yes, we're online. Praise God. Amen.
• 1:20
  We appreciate God for the opportunity that the
• 1:22
  pastors have given us to be taught and to be
• 1:25
  trained. Hallelujah. to be equipped in this season.
• 1:28
  Amen? Praise God. And I also appreciate the pastoral
• 1:32
  for the opportunity and privilege to also be
• 1:34
  here. Amen? Yeah, so 1 Corinthians 12, verse
• 1:38
  1 to 7. He said, now concerning spiritual, what?
• 1:45
  Gifts. Praise God. Let me just do something here,
• 1:49
  please. Don't worry, they will bring the light
• 1:53
  back. So now, concerning what? Spiritual gifts.
• 1:59
  Brethren, I will not have you ignorant. Amen?
• 2:04
  Yea, know that ye were gentiles, carried away
• 2:06
  unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led. Wherefore,
• 2:10
  I give you to understand that no man speaking
• 2:12
  by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed,
• 2:16
  and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord,
• 2:18
  but by the Holy Ghost. Now there are diversities
• 2:22
  of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are
• 2:25
  difference of administrations, but the same Lord.
• 2:28
  And there are diversities of operations, but
• 2:30
  it is the same God who worketh all in all. But
• 2:33
  the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every
• 2:36
  man to profit with all. For to one is given by
• 2:39
  the Spirit the word of wisdom, to another the
• 2:42
  word of knowledge by the same Spirit, to another
• 2:45
  faith by the same Spirit, to another the gifts
• 2:48
  of healing by the same Spirit, to another the
• 2:50
  working of miracles, to another prophecy, to
• 2:53
  another. discerning of spirit, you shall have
• 2:56
  what you say. You know? Yes, by discerning of
• 2:59
  spirit to another diverse kinds of tongues, to
• 3:02
  another the interpretation of tongues. 11. But
• 3:05
  all these worketh that one and the self -same
• 3:09
  spirit dividing to every man severally. As what?
• 3:14
  As he will. Hallelujah. Praise God. And during
• 3:18
  Pastor Emmanuel's teaching, what we saw, he was
• 3:21
  able to tell us the different diversities. Amen?
• 3:24
  and their operations. Thank you, sir. Right?
• 3:26
  And then in a way of classification, amen, just
• 3:30
  to be able to help us. Praise God. And those
• 3:33
  classifications have been done based on how the...
• 3:38
  Okay. Please. Yes, but it will keep doing that
• 3:49
  because the generator is not. Amen? Hallelujah.
• 3:55
  Yeah, so we said the gifts are so classified,
• 3:58
  right? Why? Based on their operation. We have
• 4:02
  started the teaching, actually. The gifts that
• 4:06
  Pastor Emmanuel started talking to us about are
• 4:08
  classified based on their what? Operation. And
• 4:12
  when we say based on operation, we mean how they
• 4:14
  function through the recipient of the Holy Spirit,
• 4:17
  who is the believer. Hallelujah. Amen? So these
• 4:20
  gifts, right? They have been classified based
• 4:24
  on their what? Operation, or you can say based
• 4:26
  on how they function. Through who? Through me.
• 4:30
  Hallelujah. Through me that I have the Spirit
• 4:32
  of God. Amen? So now, we have utterance gifts,
• 4:37
  right? I remember when I was teaching on different
• 4:43
  kinds of meetings, and then we thought about
• 4:45
  the Holy Ghost meeting. And we say one of the
• 4:47
  things, or some of the things that we see in
• 4:49
  the Holy Ghost meeting first. is that the word
• 4:51
  of God is taught. Amen? And that is what we've
• 4:53
  been doing from Monday till now. Amen? Secondly,
• 4:56
  we now say we see the demonstration of the things
• 4:59
  of the Spirit. Amen? Yes. So, thirdly, what again,
• 5:04
  thirdly? Let me see whether we can remember.
• 5:05
  Let me not say them all. Hmm. You're taking favor
• 5:12
  upon this thing. Okay. Thirdly, needs are met.
• 5:18
  Amen? Yes, so thirdly, we see needs are met.
• 5:21
  Spiritual needs are met. Natural needs are also
• 5:23
  met. Amen? It's a Holy Ghost meeting. Everything
• 5:26
  is possible. Hallelujah. Then fourthly, we see
• 5:29
  men are edified. Amen? Men are built. Hallelujah.
• 5:33
  Then the last. Somebody should tell me the last.
• 5:37
  Ah! Somebody should tell me the last. Ah? Ah?
• 5:42
  Yes, we live rejoicing. Hallelujah. Even though
• 5:46
  we've been limited for this whole week, on Saturday
• 5:48
  we'll close down this place. But we'll not bring
• 5:50
  it down. Amen. Yes, five of them in a Holy Ghost
• 5:54
  meeting like this. We see the teaching of God's
• 5:57
  word. Amen. The demonstration of things of the
• 6:00
  Holy Ghost, which has been happening from Monday
• 6:02
  till now. Amen. We see needs are met. We see
• 6:05
  the saints. We all of us are edified. Amen. And
• 6:08
  then lastly, now we leave what? Rejoicing. Praise
• 6:11
  God. Hallelujah. The heavy meeting as we're walking
• 6:14
  out of this door. After a while, boy, every day
• 6:17
  we live rejoiced. I don't know about you, but
• 6:19
  there is no meeting. From Monday till now, I've
• 6:22
  been living this place rejoicing. Praise God.
• 6:24
  I've been living this place charged up. Amen?
• 6:27
  And I said something, I was here today before,
• 6:30
  during the teaching. I think during Pastor Victor's
• 6:32
  teaching, you know, I was saying that, you see,
• 6:35
  the believer is not only to be a... Ah, Holy
• 6:40
  Spirit, remind me. I use electricity to... To
• 6:44
  put the thing. Not transformer. Conductor, right?
• 6:52
  Yes, conductor is a transfer current. Yeah, good.
• 6:54
  The believer is not only supposed to be a conductor.
• 6:57
  Only. The believer is supposed to be also a capacitor.
• 7:01
  Right? Yes. Capacitors. You know what capacitors
• 7:04
  do? They do what? They do what now? They store
• 7:09
  Tadis. Yes. Praise God. Yeah, we're sorry, we're
• 7:20
  not all engineers. Sorry, sorry. Yeah, medical
• 7:22
  by chemist, sorry. Amen? Yeah, you know, it was
• 7:27
  out of his teaching that Jesus just hit me. That
• 7:33
  every day, I know I am not empty of touch. The
• 7:39
  Holy Ghost in me is not reducing. The power of
• 7:44
  the Holy Ghost in me is not what? Reducing. I
• 7:47
  am always on charge. I am always full of power.
• 7:53
  This consciousness must be, must fill you up.
• 8:00
  I am always on charge. You are always ready.
• 8:04
  Tell yourself, I'm always ready. When it comes
• 8:07
  to spiritual things, I am always ready. Yes.
• 8:13
  It's a consciousness. Pastor Imam Hamad something.
• 8:15
  He said you are always spiritual. You don't become
• 8:22
  spiritual on a Sunday morning and on a Monday
• 8:25
  morning you are out of the spirit. No. You know
• 8:31
  sometimes we make a joke and say I am in the
• 8:33
  spirit. Please don't pull me out of the spirit.
• 8:37
  Let me say this. Very heavy and strong is extreme.
• 8:41
  The believer can never be pulled out of the Holy
• 8:44
  Ghost. Hallelujah. You can never be what? Pulled
• 8:51
  out of the Holy Ghost. And the Holy Ghost cannot
• 8:54
  pull, and we cannot pull the Holy Ghost out of
• 8:58
  you. Let me say it now, so that because what
• 9:02
  I'm about to say now is going to prepare somebody's
• 9:04
  heart. No amount of sin you will commit in this
• 9:08
  heart, you will kill. take blood and drink it,
• 9:12
  ice it and drink. Eat human meat. It will not
• 9:18
  release the Holy Ghost out of you. I'm telling
• 9:21
  you this by the Spirit of God. So probably maybe
• 9:25
  you're feeling, oh, I think, why I cannot play
• 9:28
  in tongues is because, you know, yesterday I
• 9:31
  just went and I took a small shot of a white
• 9:34
  label or red horse or red label. I think, you
• 9:38
  know, the scripture says I should not be filled.
• 9:41
  with so much wine, but with the Holy Ghost. But
• 9:44
  I now, yesterday, I was filled with the wine.
• 9:46
  So, you know, when you are filled with wine,
• 9:47
  you cannot be filled with the Holy Ghost. So,
• 9:49
  I tell you, I have a problem now in this service.
• 9:51
  No. So, if you are here, don't condemn yourself
• 9:59
  that why the things of the Spirit is not flowing
• 10:03
  through your life, you are not seeing it, is
• 10:05
  because of your limitations. This is by the Spirit
• 10:07
  of God. Now, I'm saying it to somebody now by
• 10:08
  the Spirit of God. Amen? You see, the things
• 10:12
  God has done, your works cannot make them perfect.
• 10:16
  All the things God has done, Jesus, the price
• 10:19
  he has paid, you cannot work to be able to qualify.
• 10:24
  You say, sir, you know what? Throughout this
• 10:26
  week, I've been fasting so that I can qualify
• 10:28
  for a prophetic word. So that I can qualify.
• 10:32
  You know, I know they will ask us to give a what?
• 10:34
  An interpretation of the word. So what I'm going
• 10:36
  to do is, I'm going to fast. I'm going to fast.
• 10:39
  In fact, all the food I'm doing, I've been piling
• 10:41
  them up now. If you check my fridge, day one,
• 10:43
  day two, day three, day four, till day seven.
• 10:45
  You know, I want after. Then I can come back.
• 10:47
  But for now, throughout the week, I am on it.
• 10:51
  Because I need a word. I must give a word. Rest
• 10:58
  has come to you. Let me say this now. Hallelujah.
• 11:02
  I said something here that somebody said some
• 11:04
  time ago. He said, eat, sleep, and what? And
• 11:07
  prophesy. You know, in a way, it looks like,
• 11:13
  what are you trying to say? It just defies your
• 11:16
  work. It defies human effort. What Jesus has
• 11:20
  done for you, human effort cannot give qualification
• 11:24
  for it. You can only respond to that by faith.
• 11:32
  This morning, every morning, I do my best to
• 11:35
  follow the Baba. I mentioned his name here. You
• 11:38
  know, this morning they brought a woman. And
• 11:41
  then the man was praying. They brought a deaf
• 11:45
  boy, one year, among many miracles. The boy was
• 11:48
  deaf, one year, deaf. He has never heard. You
• 11:51
  know, this Baba just came and said, you know,
• 11:53
  he has been deaf by a spirit. It's a spirit that
• 11:56
  made him deaf. He's going to hear right now.
• 12:02
  The mom, the mother's mom, the father, the mother's
• 12:05
  father, all of them, the other daughters, they
• 12:07
  were there. You know, the Baba just came to the
• 12:09
  child and put his hand in the ear and just say,
• 12:12
  ear open. You know, the one -year -old boy started
• 12:17
  hearing noise around and holding his ear for
• 12:19
  the first time. Boy, tears just started gathering
• 12:26
  in my eyes. He called many cases. A man, I'm
• 12:37
  saying this now because something is going to
• 12:38
  happen here. You know, he called a man and the
• 12:41
  man has been complaining. I don't know how the
• 12:43
  Baba knows names of so many diseases. But he
• 12:47
  has been calling names. He was there, he called
• 12:48
  the name by the spirit. The man came out. And
• 12:53
  then he called the man after he prayed for the
• 12:59
  man. The man fell under the anointing. He brought
• 13:02
  food for him. He said, eat the food. He ate the
• 13:05
  food and his throat was cleared. You see, the
• 13:13
  power of the Holy Ghost is not to be used tomorrow.
• 13:16
  It's not to be used next year. The manifestation,
• 13:19
  all the things that we are discussing is our
• 13:22
  reality now. This is our life. This is our song.
• 13:26
  This is our what? This is our reality. We are
• 13:29
  not saying something for the future. We're saying
• 13:32
  something where? Now. That healing can take place
• 13:36
  when? Now. Through our hands. Man of God taught
• 13:39
  us on laying of hands. That I will hear a case.
• 13:43
  Far, far, far from here to one village in Nigeria.
• 13:47
  And I will tell them by the Spirit. Can you just
• 13:51
  lay hands on the person? I believe. You can have
• 13:57
  it. But the things of the Spirit, we are not
• 13:59
  believing. In fact, you can be seated here and
• 14:04
  take loads and take loads throughout this meeting,
• 14:07
  but you have not believed it. You'll never see
• 14:11
  its workings. Never. I choose to believe the
• 14:15
  things of the Holy Ghost. I choose to believe
• 14:17
  the power of the Holy Ghost. I choose to believe
• 14:19
  the manifestation of the Spirit of God. Can we
• 14:22
  just pray in the Holy Ghost? Can we just pray
• 14:24
  in the Holy Ghost? These things are happening.
• 14:27
  I look forward. You know, I was there on my bed
• 14:29
  this morning. I was watching this, Baba. With
• 14:32
  the eyes of faith, I say, no, I'm going to move
• 14:35
  to places. I will lay hands and many eyes will
• 14:38
  open. Many ears will open. I will see people
• 14:41
  baptized with the Holy Ghost. My eyes begin to
• 14:43
  see conferences, meetings, and I'm ready. Everywhere
• 14:48
  I go, I am open. I'm flexible to the flow of
• 14:51
  the things of the Holy Ghost. So can you just
• 14:54
  open up your mouth in the Holy Ghost? Can you
• 14:56
  open up your mouth in the Holy Ghost? Please
• 14:59
  don't be limited. Don't be limited. Don't be
• 15:00
  limited. This is one of the things that we came
• 15:04
  here to do. By the Spirit of God. By the Spirit
• 15:08
  of God. We are changing things. By the Spirit
• 15:11
  of God. We are causing a turnaround. By the Spirit
• 15:14
  of God, we take over cities. By the Spirit of
• 15:17
  God, Pastor Victor, we replace. We bring great
• 15:19
  joy to cities. Oh, no company. No two or three.
• 15:24
  No five, ten, ten people. No, no, no, no. Individually.
• 15:27
  We take off cities. We bring joy to systems.
• 15:38
  Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit, Holy Spirit, make our
• 15:46
  life what it ought to be. Flow through us. Make
• 15:49
  our life what it ought to be. Make our lives
• 15:52
  what it ought to be. Make our lives what it ought
• 15:55
  to be. You are flowing through our hands. You
• 15:57
  are flowing through our lips. You are walking.
• 15:59
  You are seeing through our eyes. You are hearing
• 16:01
  through our ears. You are bringing perceptions
• 16:04
  to our hearts. Thank you, Holy Ghost. In Jesus'
• 16:13
  name. So, utterance gifts, these are gifts that
• 16:17
  say something in or by the Spirit. Utterance
• 16:22
  gifts, they are things. We are still on the classification.
• 16:26
  Ultron's gifts are things that are said in or
• 16:31
  by the Spirit. Amen? Hallelujah. So, please,
• 16:36
  while we are making much more emphasis on the
• 16:39
  Spirit, the Spirit, the Spirit, the Spirit, the
• 16:42
  Spirit, the Spirit, the Spirit, it's because
• 16:44
  you are spiritual. Hallelujah. And the Spirit
• 16:47
  of God is indwelling you. Amen? So, on that,
• 16:52
  we have tongues. Interpretation of tongues and
• 16:55
  prophecy. Tongues, interpretation of tongues
• 16:59
  and prophecy. Don't get tired of writing. Don't
• 17:01
  get tired of reading the Bible. That's why we
• 17:03
  are here. Amen. I was not happy. I was telling
• 17:06
  Pastor Iman, is Pastor Iman fine? Other people
• 17:10
  that were invited to come here, they refused
• 17:13
  to come. The only thing they know how to invite
• 17:16
  us is concerts. They will invite us for concerts,
• 17:20
  but they will never come to a teaching session
• 17:21
  like this. Immediately I know when they saw that
• 17:24
  flyer 9 to 5, they wondered what are they going
• 17:26
  to do. They have not even sent us a feedback.
• 17:29
  We will not make it. How is this honoring? Even
• 17:33
  to say we will not be able to be around or we
• 17:36
  will send one person. They did not. The pastorate
• 17:42
  know what to do with them. So under our transcript,
• 17:46
  we have tongues, interpretation of tongues and
• 17:48
  what? Prophecy. Tongues, interpretation of tongues
• 17:52
  are what? Why do you think we call them author's
• 17:55
  gifts? Because they do what? Because they...
• 18:02
  They are altered, yes. One more. Please, when
• 18:07
  you respond, it makes us flow fast. Okay, you
• 18:11
  have spoken, right? Yes, so they involve speaking.
• 18:17
  Your tongue... Your lips will be used. Amen?
• 18:21
  And in fact, why we are starting with Ultron's
• 18:23
  gifts? Because all other gifts take precedence
• 18:26
  from Ultron's gifts. Amen? All other gifts will
• 18:30
  find their expression through Ultron's gifts.
• 18:33
  So when we say healing, for example, when you
• 18:37
  come to heal the sick, you know, and then the
• 18:44
  person goes, I can't walk. I can't walk. All
• 18:48
  trans gifts is involved. Hallelujah. Speakings
• 18:51
  are involved. Gift of faith. Speakings are involved.
• 18:56
  Praise God. Walking of miracles. Speakings are
• 19:00
  involved. Amen. So all that we're going to, we're
• 19:02
  going to start with all trans gifts because we're
• 19:04
  going to talk about other gifts too. Amen. But
• 19:06
  all of them, you understand why they take precedence
• 19:09
  all from these ones. Praise God. So don't joke.
• 19:12
  Don't joke with tongues. Interpretation of tongues
• 19:14
  are what? and prophecy. I'm not saying that these
• 19:17
  ones are more greater than the others. Amen?
• 19:19
  Praise God. Hallelujah. But I'm just saying that
• 19:22
  all other ones will also find expression when
• 19:25
  we have a proper understanding of this. Hallelujah.
• 19:28
  Praise God. Don't we now have revelational gifts?
• 19:34
  These gifts, they are gifts that see or perceive.
• 19:45
  Perceive things. Gives that see, perceive, hear
• 19:48
  things by the Spirit or in the Spirit. Hallelujah.
• 19:54
  So for example, in a meeting like this, you know
• 19:58
  when we're praying for people for direction?
• 20:01
  I was still picking things by the Spirit of God.
• 20:04
  I was receiving lots of promptings. One of the
• 20:06
  things I received or I heard by the Spirit in
• 20:09
  my heart, right? Which is a revelational gift,
• 20:12
  is that... Spirit of fear in someone's heart
• 20:17
  is banished. Hallelujah. I received that here
• 20:22
  when I was standing. Amen. And when I came to
• 20:25
  pray for people here, I had in my spirit, as
• 20:28
  you lay hands on them, you're going to have,
• 20:30
  you will know now, know by the Spirit many things.
• 20:34
  So some of the things you're going to say to
• 20:36
  them or some of the things I will give you that
• 20:38
  you're going to say to them will be in the direction
• 20:40
  of what they are trusting me for. Hallelujah.
• 20:44
  Revelational gifts. So these gifts, they see,
• 20:47
  they perceive, share things by the Spirit of
• 20:51
  God. Amen? Are we there? So under these gifts,
• 20:56
  we have word of knowledge, word of wisdom, discerning
• 21:00
  of spirits. Don't worry, we're going to teach
• 21:01
  all these things. See, the things of the Spirit
• 21:05
  can be learned, they can be taught. Hallelujah.
• 21:08
  And then they can be practiced. Glory to God.
• 21:13
  Word of knowledge, word of wisdom, discerning
• 21:15
  of spirit. Now we have the power gifts. The power
• 21:19
  gifts, they relate to doing things. Doing things
• 21:24
  by the spirit of God. Doing things by the spirit.
• 21:30
  Doing things, the power gifts. They relate to
• 21:33
  doing things by the spirit. Actions. Let me use
• 21:36
  this word. Actions of the spirit. Hallelujah.
• 21:39
  So we see gifts of healing. working of miracles,
• 21:43
  and then gift of faith. Amen? Gift of healing,
• 21:48
  working of miracles, and then what? Gift of faith.
• 21:51
  So these are all the classification based on
• 21:54
  operation in the recipient who is the believer
• 21:57
  of the Holy Ghost. Amen? So now, we are starting
• 22:01
  with Ultron's gifts in detail now. Tongues. You
• 22:05
  can write tongue. Tongues. During my NYC, one
• 22:15
  of the people that we are privileged to lead
• 22:17
  us, one of those nights he came, he saw us, we
• 22:20
  were praying in tongues, Pastor Victor's family
• 22:23
  house, we call it family house. It seemed like
• 22:25
  my own. Whether you want to catch fire or not,
• 22:28
  fire must catch you. Because, you know, I would
• 22:32
  really encourage people here, if you're an Nigerian,
• 22:34
  please, don't run away from NYC. Right? Yes,
• 22:40
  try and go and do it. Your life will change.
• 22:43
  It's already changed now, but it will change
• 22:44
  more. You know, if you think you read books,
• 22:49
  you'll find people that are books themselves.
• 22:53
  If you think you pray, oh boy, you'll find people
• 22:56
  that their life is prayers. I know what I'm...
• 22:59
  He knows, Pastor Victor knows. Some of us that
• 23:01
  have been in family house, they know. So one
• 23:06
  of these nights, you know, you will be sleeping
• 23:07
  and snoring. Somebody will enter that, we call
• 23:10
  it a hall in the house, actually. The person
• 23:13
  will pray, will pray, Sir, as the person is coming
• 23:17
  back from PPA, he's praying and praying till
• 23:21
  morning. You even open the door and check it.
• 23:31
  You will go back to your room. you will come
• 23:35
  back and meet them there still praying. I know
• 23:39
  people in that family house that not once, not
• 23:43
  twice, they came back from the gate, they set
• 23:46
  the whole house on fire. Everybody was praying
• 23:50
  from the gate. So praying in tongues is not show
• 23:58
  there. And you are not trying to show. You know,
• 24:05
  just by this action, somebody just joins you.
• 24:10
  And I will say this now by the Spirit of God.
• 24:12
  Now, if you are here and you don't pray in tongues,
• 24:14
  once you see we say, pray in tongues, don't begin
• 24:17
  to analyze. No, no, do what? Join. Hallelujah.
• 24:22
  Everywhere you see a manifestation, a display
• 24:25
  of the things of the Spirit, before you start
• 24:27
  analyzing it, do what? Join it. You know, this
• 24:30
  morning as I saw Baba was healing. Strange case
• 24:34
  is all. I say, ah, I can do this. I started saying,
• 24:39
  I can do this. I can do this. I can do this.
• 24:43
  I can do this. I can do this. I can do this.
• 24:46
  You know, the more I'm watching, the more I'm
• 24:49
  watching, you know what is happening inside me?
• 24:50
  I'm trying to look for the next sick person.
• 24:52
  That's what will begin to happen. See, if you
• 24:54
  are here and we are praying in tongues and these
• 24:56
  things are not happening like that inside you,
• 24:58
  you're not paying attention to what we are doing.
• 25:01
  If Pastor Victor comes up, And then you begin
• 25:04
  to see 10, 10 sick people. Blind eyes are open.
• 25:08
  And the hairs on your body don't rise. And you're
• 25:11
  beginning to, your faith is being stirred up.
• 25:13
  And you're saying, I know I can do this too.
• 25:15
  The Spirit of God dwells in me. You're not paying
• 25:19
  attention. You know, one night, for whatever
• 25:23
  reason, I know I encountered one of the videos
• 25:25
  as I was watching. I was crying. I just shared
• 25:28
  it to a couple of us in this church. You know?
• 25:31
  And I didn't know. One of them is Brother Kunda.
• 25:33
  I just say, just watch this. You know, I didn't
• 25:39
  know that season, you know, he has been reading
• 25:41
  books on healing and the rest. So I saw healing,
• 25:47
  I'm like, oh, is this more? Your environment,
• 25:56
  when it comes to the things of the spirit, listen
• 25:58
  to this now. Your environment. will contribute
• 26:02
  to how fast you grow in the practice of the things
• 26:05
  of the Spirit or is going to limit the practice
• 26:09
  of the things of the Spirit in your life. If
• 26:12
  the only people that surround you don't honor
• 26:15
  the things of the Spirit, very soon you will
• 26:19
  despise it. So please, you see, when we say pray
• 26:23
  in tongues, don't begin to wait. Just jump. Hallelujah.
• 26:27
  Do what? Yes, just jump. Praise God. So tongues.
• 26:32
  What is tongue? That's right. Tongues. Mark chapter
• 26:39
  16 verse 15. Pastor Victor laid a good foundation
• 26:43
  on this. We're going to build also on it. Amen.
• 26:47
  Mark chapter 16 verse 15. Thank you Holy Spirit.
• 26:57
  So don't be tired. We're going to read lots of
• 26:59
  scriptures. Mark chapter 16, verse what? Verse
• 27:03
  15, and I read, And he said unto them, Go ye
• 27:06
  into all the world and preach the gospel to every
• 27:08
  creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall
• 27:10
  be saved, but he that believeth not shall be
• 27:13
  what? 17. And these signs shall follow them that
• 27:18
  what? That believe. In my name shall they what?
• 27:22
  Cast out devils. They shall speak with what?
• 27:26
  With new tongue. See if it's your Bible on the
• 27:29
  line, the word new tongue. When we say something
• 27:33
  is new, even though we're economy to deal with
• 27:34
  it, but let me say it now in passing. When we
• 27:36
  say something is new, what do we mean? When we
• 27:41
  say something is new now, okay, let's assume
• 27:45
  you have been using this one shirt for a long
• 27:46
  time and it has become uniform. You know, one
• 27:53
  of these days, you know, You know, I used to
• 27:55
  use many clothes for a long time. You know, the
• 27:59
  day, the one month, my wife knows, Pastor Chili,
• 28:04
  the brothers I stayed with know, the pastors.
• 28:06
  When I buy new things, I don't keep them, I use
• 28:08
  them immediately so that you will know me with
• 28:10
  them very fast. You know, when my captivity was
• 28:20
  changed and was turned, So that one month, two
• 28:24
  weeks, I just went and then changed my wardrobe
• 28:25
  small. So for almost one month straight, every
• 28:31
  Sunday I was changing clothes. You know, all
• 28:33
  the sisters, because of the person's costume,
• 28:35
  you're looking fine. Sir, sir, what's happening
• 28:39
  now? Everybody was like, ah, sir, we like the
• 28:42
  way you're looking. Ah, sir, sir, sir. Of course,
• 28:46
  God bless you. I suddenly became blue. Yes! I've
• 29:03
  been using one suit like that, one black suit.
• 29:06
  I did not miss it. I used it black. Became cancer
• 29:12
  looking like white, white. You know, I was going
• 29:19
  to Nigeria and I told myself, I just woke up,
• 29:21
  I was angry. I said, if all these clothes don't
• 29:24
  leave this wardrobe, my mindset will not change.
• 29:33
  I went home. I got clothes. I got clothes. I
• 29:35
  got clothes. I came back. We had an argument
• 29:38
  with Pastor Victor one time. He encouraged me
• 29:40
  to change my clothes during PhD. Long time. I
• 29:43
  said, no, it's not by dressing. You know, I thought
• 29:56
  they were still encouraging ourselves those times.
• 29:58
  I told him, I said, no, no, no. He said, no,
• 29:59
  where we're going, sometimes I say, no, no, no.
• 30:03
  I still remember the trouser and the shirt. But
• 30:12
  you see, the new Jesus is talking about is not
• 30:15
  this kind of new. Hallelujah. The new Jesus is
• 30:19
  talking about that you're going to see new tongues,
• 30:22
  which means it has never existed before. From
• 30:25
  Genesis to now, the only time it's going to happen
• 30:28
  is at my resurrection. No man has ever spoken
• 30:33
  in tongues. No man has ever seen such a sign.
• 30:37
  Hallelujah. But at my resurrection, this sign
• 30:40
  will be made available for the believer. Praise
• 30:43
  God. So what is sign? What is sign? The Greek
• 30:53
  word for sign means, S -E -M -A -I -N -O. Actually,
• 31:00
  let me just tell us it's Semyon from the root
• 31:03
  word Semyon. Semyon is S -E -N -E -I -O -N. S
• 31:07
  -E -M -E -I -O -N from the root word Semyon.
• 31:12
  S -E -M -A -I -N -O. Semyon from the root word
• 31:18
  Semyon. That's a Greek word for sign. And what
• 31:23
  does that mean? It means mark. It means token.
• 31:27
  It means to indicate, to signify, to make known,
• 31:33
  to distinguish a thing or a person from others.
• 31:39
  Hallelujah. Means a mark. Seneon from Seminole
• 31:45
  means a mark, a token to indicate, to signify,
• 31:50
  to make known. To distinguish a person or a thing
• 31:55
  from what? From others. In fact, let me add this
• 32:00
  to our definition. With exclusive characteristics.
• 32:06
  With exclusive what? Characteristics. That word
• 32:16
  sign is a strong word. is used for uncommon events
• 32:21
  beyond the common cause of nature. Very strong.
• 32:32
  That's why you saw, you heard and you saw Pastor
• 32:35
  Victor had to put so much stress on the matter
• 32:40
  of laying on of what? Of hands as a sign. Hallelujah.
• 32:45
  Why? Because it's not physical. Amen? One of
• 32:51
  the things that we establish from that teaching
• 32:53
  is that laying on of hands is a supernatural
• 32:56
  what? It's a supernatural activity. Praise God.
• 33:03
  Likewise, write it. Speaking in tongues, speaking
• 33:06
  in new tongues is a supernatural activity. Praise
• 33:10
  God. Hallelujah. It's a supernatural activity.
• 33:18
  So we say that these signs could distinguish
• 33:22
  a person, right? From others or a thing. We say
• 33:25
  they are used for uncommon events. That is events
• 33:28
  that are beyond the common course of nature.
• 33:31
  That is why you see we say they are supernatural,
• 33:34
  what? Activities. They are beyond natural. So
• 33:39
  the next time you're praying in tongues, in the
• 33:40
  next minutes we're going to do it, don't see
• 33:42
  yourself as you're doing a natural thing. Hallelujah.
• 33:45
  There's something supernatural that you're doing.
• 33:48
  And you know something? In a way of encouraging
• 33:50
  you? There is nothing supernatural that does
• 33:53
  not have effect on the physical. I tell you this
• 33:56
  now. Nothing supernatural, spiritual, that does
• 34:00
  not have effect on the what? On the physical.
• 34:03
  Praise God. So, signs. Signs are circles of miracles
• 34:13
  or wonders by which God uses. To validate the
• 34:18
  believer. They are what? Tokens of signs and
• 34:23
  what? And wonders. God used them to be able to
• 34:27
  what? To validate the believer. That's why I
• 34:30
  said exclusive what? Characteristics. Distinguishes
• 34:35
  the believer from unbeliever. Praise God. So
• 34:43
  when we read Matthew chapter 12. Let's open to
• 34:45
  Matthew chapter 12. Verse 38 to 39. Matthew chapter
• 34:50
  12. So we'll just see where, just two, three
• 34:53
  scriptures, because I've already made emphasis
• 34:56
  on that. Matthew chapter 12, verse 38. See what
• 35:00
  the scripture says. Then certain of the scribes
• 35:04
  and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master,
• 35:06
  we will see a sign from what? From thee. They
• 35:13
  want something exclusive. They want something
• 35:17
  that goes exclusive, that goes beyond the common
• 35:22
  cause of nature. They want something to indicate.
• 35:25
  They want an indication, amen? He said, but he
• 35:28
  answered and said unto them, an evil and adulterous,
• 35:31
  what? Adulterous generation, secret after what?
• 35:34
  A sign. And there shall no sign be what? Given
• 35:39
  to it but the sign of what? Prophet Jonah. Every
• 35:46
  time you see sign, it's written in the scripture,
• 35:49
  it's indicative. So when you hear a sign, you
• 35:54
  say, let's read that mark again, so that we'll
• 35:57
  put it in context now. When you hear, for example,
• 35:59
  the scripture, we'll say, you said, in my name,
• 36:02
  they cast out what? Devils. They indicate something
• 36:06
  supernatural. Hallelujah. You say, how is it
• 36:16
  that you cast out a spirit by another spirit?
• 36:18
  You are using the spirit of Beelzebub. They know
• 36:21
  that the spirit of Beelzebub is not a natural
• 36:23
  spirit. Hallelujah. And for Christ to cast out
• 36:28
  devils, he must be operating from a supernatural
• 36:30
  realm. The believer always operates from the
• 36:34
  supernatural realm. You can never know him from
• 36:39
  the natural. Hallelujah. That is why all things
• 36:43
  are possible for the believer. All things. All
• 36:49
  things. Can you say all things are possible with
• 36:51
  me? Because I have the Spirit of God in me. Yes,
• 36:56
  that's your reality. Another reference again,
• 37:02
  Matthew 26, 48. Sign. Sign. Matthew 26, 48. And
• 37:11
  I'll just give us one and then we add it as just.
• 37:13
  Matthew 26, 48. See what the scripture says.
• 37:16
  Now he that betrayed him, give them a what? A
• 37:20
  sign saying, whomsoever I shall tease. That saying
• 37:26
  is he to hold him not, hold him fast. He said,
• 37:33
  with an indication of a kiss. Exclusively. Just,
• 37:38
  just grabbing. Many people were there, but he
• 37:45
  said, anyone that I come and do what? And just
• 37:48
  give him what? A sign of a kiss. Don't even ask,
• 37:52
  are you Jesus? Just do what? Just grab him. Hallelujah.
• 38:00
  Hallelujah. Praise God. Praise God. So with this
• 38:05
  understanding, can we go back now to Matthew,
• 38:07
  to Mark chapter 16 and read? Go back to Mark
• 38:10
  chapter 16 and read. Since we say signs, exclusive.
• 38:13
  You know, supernatural activity. Beyond the course
• 38:17
  of common nature. Signs, wonders. Through the
• 38:21
  believer in Christ Jesus. Can we read Mark 16
• 38:26
  now? And he said unto them, Go ye into what?
• 38:30
  All the world. Right? And preach the gospel to
• 38:34
  every what? He that... In my name shall they
• 38:51
  cast out devils. They shall speak with what?
• 38:54
  With new tongues. Praise God. Hallelujah. So
• 39:00
  what we see here, that signs are for believers.
• 39:04
  Amen. He said, this sign shall follow them that
• 39:07
  what? That believe. Praise God. So which means
• 39:12
  speaking with a new tongue is exclusive only
• 39:17
  to them that what? That believe. If you see anybody
• 39:22
  speaking in other tongues and he does not believe
• 39:27
  in Jesus, the death, burial, and resurrection
• 39:31
  of Jesus. Know that that such a man, right, is
• 39:37
  operating with the spirit of Beelzebub. If you
• 39:44
  enter any place and you see somebody, he's speaking
• 39:48
  with other tongues and the person does not believe
• 39:50
  in Jesus, he does not believe in the death, burial
• 39:55
  and of importance and significance, the resurrection
• 39:59
  of who? Of Christ. Know that such a man is operating
• 40:04
  with the help of demons. I'm telling you this
• 40:09
  now. So be careful. I will say this now. It's
• 40:16
  coming to my heart now to many people now. There
• 40:18
  are a couple of you that you are in 10 WhatsApp
• 40:20
  groups on WhatsApp. You are in 15 groups on Instagram.
• 40:28
  25 on TikTok. 31 on Snapchat. All of them, you're
• 40:34
  following prayers. Prayers, prayers. One prophetic
• 40:38
  group. One, see and grab. The other one, all.
• 40:45
  Power must change hands. Different groups. The
• 40:50
  other, challenge your challenger. You're in that
• 40:52
  group. The one on Instagram is... Understand
• 41:01
  your destiny by looking at the sky. You are there.
• 41:16
  I tell you, for free, leave those groups. Praise
• 41:21
  God. Do what? Don't turn to your right and left
• 41:26
  so that they will not say I'm speaking. Just
• 41:27
  look at me. So that they will not say you're
• 41:30
  the one. Leave this group. If not, you're going
• 41:36
  to have oppressions from demons. It's working,
• 41:40
  right? Praise God. Hallelujah. So now, we realize
• 41:51
  now that signs are what? Signs are what? For
• 41:57
  believers. Hallelujah. So where we come to tongues
• 42:00
  now? Amen. Where we come to what? Tongues. Quote
• 42:10
  and unquote. Now in the New Testament, right,
• 42:12
  which we have been taught now that there's nothing
• 42:15
  Old Testament or what? New Testament. We call
• 42:18
  the whole Bible what? Holy Scriptures. They are
• 42:22
  forgotten, sir. This thing will enter your DNA,
• 42:27
  don't worry. Praise God. Holy what? Scriptures,
• 42:32
  amen? So what we see from Matthew, what we see
• 42:36
  in the epistles, we see Paul's writings happens
• 42:40
  to be, Apostle Paul has been the one that has
• 42:43
  been able to write a comprehensive teaching for
• 42:46
  us on what? On tongues, amen? So for example,
• 42:49
  let's read Jude. Let's read Jude now. When you
• 42:53
  see Jude, Jude 1 .20. Jude 1 .20 just tells us,
• 43:00
  it says, But yea, beloved, building up your most
• 43:03
  holy faith, praying in the Spirit. If you're
• 43:08
  using the version, praying in the Holy Ghost.
• 43:11
  You won't see any other thing again. The next
• 43:13
  verse says, Keep yourselves in the love of God,
• 43:16
  looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ
• 43:19
  unto what? Eternal life. Amen. Yes, so you won't
• 43:23
  see another place again where tongues are being
• 43:26
  taught or written or verses. Where you see is
• 43:30
  Paul's writings teaching about what? Tongues,
• 43:34
  tongues, tongues, tongues. Praise God. 1 Corinthians
• 43:39
  chapter 12, about tongues. He goes to 13. About
• 43:44
  tongues. He goes to 14. About tongues. So in
• 43:47
  the epistles we have 1 Corinthians chapter 12.
• 43:49
  1 Corinthians chapter 13. 1 Corinthians chapter
• 43:52
  14. About tongues. Then we have Jude. Jude 20.
• 43:57
  Just a verse there. Amen. Hallelujah. And then
• 44:00
  we have Lent also. Now we can't use just one
• 44:03
  verse and do what? And do the doctrine out of
• 44:06
  it. Amen. Praise God. Hallelujah. So now, somewhere
• 44:21
  past three months, as has taught us, we see in
• 44:24
  1 Corinthians 12, right? Paul classifying the
• 44:29
  things of the Spirit for us. Let's go to 1 Corinthians
• 44:31
  12, 4 -7. 1 Corinthians 12, 4 -7. 1 Corinthians
• 44:41
  12, 4 -7. Now there are diversities of what?
• 44:59
  Now we are still being in 10. to another working
• 45:13
  of miracles, to another prophecy, to another
• 45:15
  discerning of spirits, to another diverse kinds
• 45:18
  of tongues, to another interpretation of what?
• 45:21
  Tongues, 11 now. But all these working at one
• 45:23
  and the same spirit, dividing to every mass severally
• 45:27
  as what? As he will. Hallelujah. Yes, so we ended
• 45:31
  the last session saying the word manifestation
• 45:34
  of the spirit is from the Greek word what? It's
• 45:41
  from the Greek word words class. Ah. Phanerosis.
• 45:46
  Please. You see, if... If I teach, even in the
• 45:52
  natural, everybody must respond in my class.
• 45:58
  If not, we'll end by questions. Just tear out
• 46:03
  a sheet of paper and we'll write a fast quiz.
• 46:07
  Amen? Yes, so please, I need your attention.
• 46:10
  Amen? So, Phanerosis, right? Praise God. So,
• 46:16
  that word Phanerosis is from the root word Phaino.
• 46:20
  Phanerosis is from the root word what? Phaino.
• 46:23
  D -H -A -I -N -O. Phaino. Which implies to unveil,
• 46:31
  to open, to make bare, to become evident. Plainly
• 46:37
  recognize. To be seen. To appear to the mind.
• 46:43
  Let me repeat myself again. Which implies to
• 46:47
  unveil, to open, to make bare, to become evident.
• 46:51
  To plainly recognize. To be seen. To appear to
• 46:58
  the mind. All this will happen to meet the eyes.
• 47:03
  Hallelujah. So all the things that will be unveiled,
• 47:07
  all the things that will be made bare, all the
• 47:10
  things that are going to be unraveled, all those
• 47:14
  things that will become evident, that will be
• 47:16
  plainly recognized, they will meet the what?
• 47:20
  The eyes. So the eyes will be able to what? To
• 47:23
  see them. Praise God. So which means the mind
• 47:27
  can perceive them and the eyes will do what?
• 47:30
  Will see them. Praise God. That's the word final
• 47:34
  of anerosis. And we see Paul applied the same
• 47:38
  word, 2 Corinthians 4, verse 2. Don't miss me.
• 47:44
  We are talking about manifestation. 2 Corinthians
• 47:46
  4, verse 2. But have renounced from verse 1.
• 47:51
  Let's start reading from verse 1. Therefore,
• 47:52
  seeing we have this ministry, as we have received
• 47:55
  mercy, we do what? We faint not, but have received
• 47:59
  the hidden things of dishonesty. Ah, sorry. But
• 48:03
  we have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty,
• 48:05
  not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word
• 48:09
  of God deceitfully, but by what? But by manifestation
• 48:15
  of the what? Truth, commending ourselves to every
• 48:18
  man's conscience in what? In the sight of God.
• 48:23
  You see, this context is different from the context
• 48:26
  that Paul was giving to the church. Hallelujah.
• 48:29
  He said here, he said, but by the manifestation
• 48:32
  of the truth. That through the truth, amen, commending
• 48:38
  ourselves to every man's what? Conscience in
• 48:41
  the sight of God. Hallelujah. But the word manifestation
• 48:45
  from where we are coming from in 1 Corinthians,
• 48:48
  if you read carefully, pay attention now, let's
• 48:51
  go there. That 1 Corinthians chapter 12, he says
• 48:54
  what? Seven, but what? By manifestation? It says
• 49:00
  what? Please, can you stop showing this thing?
• 49:04
  Let everybody read their Bible. I love you. Thank
• 49:08
  you. But by manifestation? Verse 7. 1 Corinthians
• 49:16
  12 verse 7. But by manifestation of the Spirit
• 49:19
  is given to every man to profit. What's your
• 49:21
  Bible saying? But the... manifestation. A definite
• 49:28
  article. Hallelujah. But the manifestation of
• 49:33
  what? Of the Spirit. When we say, but the manifestation
• 49:38
  of custom, what do we mean? Say it. But the manifestation.
• 49:44
  Yes, doctor. Huh? Of the what? Say it. It's coming.
• 49:55
  unveiling of custom. Hallelujah. The making bare
• 49:59
  of custom. Praise God. That is why Pastor Emma
• 50:03
  said that it's not the gifts, the Holy Ghost.
• 50:05
  Holy Ghost himself is the gifts. Hallelujah.
• 50:09
  The manifestation of the Holy Ghost. Praise God.
• 50:14
  That is why the word is not the manifestations
• 50:16
  of the Holy Ghost. But the word, the manifestation,
• 50:21
  a definite article. Amen. And that word, that
• 50:28
  word, the manifestation is referring to something
• 50:32
  specific. And that in that context, that something
• 50:36
  specific is what? The Holy Ghost. Hallelujah.
• 50:39
  Praise God. So the Holy Ghost, the unveiling
• 50:43
  of the Holy Ghost. Amen. He said that, Lord,
• 50:47
  the making bare of the Holy Ghost, the mind will
• 50:51
  be able to perceive it. Hallelujah. And it will
• 50:53
  meet the eyes. Praise God. Hallelujah. So when
• 50:57
  there is healing taking place here, it will meet
• 51:00
  the eyes. When there is a prophetic word given,
• 51:02
  it will do what? It will meet the eyes. Praise
• 51:05
  God. So now, we now see another word in that
• 51:14
  place, is it? It's given to every man. Hallelujah.
• 51:19
  So we know what the manifestation is, right?
• 51:22
  Is he talking about gifts or is he talking about
• 51:24
  the Spirit? He's talking about the Spirit, right?
• 51:29
  Good. So now, what we say now, the making bear
• 51:34
  of the Spirit, right, is given to every man.
• 51:37
  So underline the word every man. Because we want
• 51:40
  to know, that word every man, what does it mean?
• 51:46
  That word every man, what does it mean? So when
• 51:52
  we go to verse 3, everybody, let's go to verse
• 51:54
  3. Wherefore I give you to understand that no
• 51:58
  man speaking by the Spirit of God, call it Jesus,
• 52:01
  what? Accursed. And that no man can say that
• 52:06
  Jesus is the Lord, but by what? The Holy Ghost
• 52:11
  or by the Holy Spirit. Amen? Praise God. So when
• 52:16
  we go to now, 8 to 10 now, everybody. For to
• 52:22
  one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom,
• 52:25
  to another the word of knowledge by the Spirit,
• 52:27
  to another faith by the same Spirit, to another
• 52:30
  the gifts of healing by the same Spirit, to another
• 52:33
  the working of miracles, to another prophecy,
• 52:35
  to another discerning of spirits, to another
• 52:38
  diverse kinds of what? Tongues. To another the
• 52:41
  what? The interpretation of what? Of tongues.
• 52:46
  Sorry, please. To another, the interpretation
• 52:56
  of what? Of tongues, right? So that verse 3,
• 53:00
  we're coming to that now. I need you to read
• 53:02
  that because we're coming to that. So that verse
• 53:03
  3, he said, no man can say that Jesus is Lord
• 53:07
  by what? By the Holy Ghost. So who can say Jesus
• 53:11
  is the Lord but by the Holy Ghost? Who can say
• 53:15
  that? The believer. Remarks of the 10. Remarks
• 53:21
  of the 10. Verse 9. That if thou shalt confess
• 53:26
  with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe
• 53:29
  in thy heart that God hath raised him from the
• 53:32
  dead, thou shalt be what? Saved. So who can say
• 53:36
  the Lord Jesus? Who can confess the Lord Jesus?
• 53:41
  The believer, the man that is saved. Hallelujah.
• 53:44
  He is the one that can say by the Spirit of God
• 53:47
  that Jesus is what? Is the Lord. Hallelujah.
• 53:51
  So when we say, In verse 7 of that first Corinthians
• 53:54
  chapter 12, where we say it is given to every
• 53:58
  man. So who are we saying this kind of manifestation
• 54:03
  is given to? To the believer. Praise God. Amen?
• 54:07
  So only the believer is permitted, is legalized,
• 54:12
  has been licensed to experience the manifestation
• 54:15
  of the Spirit of God. Are we all together? Are
• 54:20
  we all here? Is it becoming clearer? Glory to
• 54:24
  God. Hallelujah. And we now say something, verse
• 54:28
  8 now. Four to one is given by the Spirit, the
• 54:33
  word of wisdom. Amen? Four to one. To another,
• 54:39
  the word of knowledge by what? So that word four,
• 54:43
  because when you read that place from verse 8
• 54:45
  to 10, it will seem as though it's trying to
• 54:48
  classify different believers and say, to Custon
• 54:53
  is giving word of knowledge and then to Prince
• 54:56
  is only word of wisdom. And Prince, when they
• 54:58
  say, Prince, can you give a word of knowledge,
• 55:00
  a prophetic? He said, ah, sir, the last time
• 55:03
  I checked, me, I just have only word of, only
• 55:07
  word of knowledge. In fact, how do you even give
• 55:10
  prophetic words, sir? You know, we'll be put
• 55:12
  in this prophetic realm. You would like to show
• 55:15
  yourselves. You see, We that we are discerning,
• 55:18
  we are giving discerning of spirit, we don't
• 55:21
  talk. We just stay from our corner and just discern
• 55:24
  spirits. But you see, because we don't have the
• 55:29
  prophetic, we don't really talk too much. Praise
• 55:32
  God. But however, in the past, we've been taught
• 55:36
  like that. That you can only have one and you
• 55:41
  can't have many. So, you know, when there's a
• 55:46
  call for gift of healing, and then you remember
• 55:50
  that your own is only what? Tongues or interpretation
• 55:55
  of tongues? You leave the WhatsApp group. Because
• 56:00
  it's not your time to shine. No. Hallelujah.
• 56:04
  The believer has all the gifts of the Holy Ghost.
• 56:07
  Praise God. Why? Because the believer has the
• 56:09
  Spirit of God. Amen? So that word for, verse
• 56:13
  8 now, that word for, are we all there? That
• 56:17
  word for was translated from the Greek word gar,
• 56:21
  G -A -R. That word for is important what we are
• 56:25
  doing in this season. What we are building now
• 56:28
  is going to help us in all the remaining part
• 56:30
  of the teaching. That's why you see I'm taking
• 56:32
  time on it. That word for in verse 8, it says
• 56:37
  fail to one, right? Is that what your scripture
• 56:40
  says? So that word for is from the Greek word
• 56:43
  what? Da. And that word da, it implies or means
• 56:48
  explanation. Reason. Reason and explanation.
• 56:58
  So when you make a statement, you want to further
• 57:01
  explain the statement. Amen? So for example,
• 57:06
  now when we go back to verse 7, we say, but the
• 57:08
  manifestation of the Spirit. It is given to every
• 57:12
  man to do what? To profit with all. 4 to 1, right?
• 57:20
  So you want to further give explanation to what?
• 57:24
  To verse 7. Amen? You are not trying to classify
• 57:29
  what verse 7 has mentioned. Praise God. Amen?
• 57:35
  Good now. And what is the context of verse 7?
• 57:38
  so that I know you're with me. The context of
• 57:42
  verse 7 is about what? Holy Spirit, right? Holy
• 57:47
  Spirit, now what is happening to Holy Spirit?
• 57:51
  Yeah, the Holy Spirit is unveiling, right? Yes,
• 57:55
  it's being evident, right? It will be plainly
• 58:01
  revealed, right? And when the Holy Ghost is plainly
• 58:05
  revealed, it will what? It will lit the eyes.
• 58:08
  Hallelujah. Praise God. Perfect. So now, that
• 58:12
  word God means what? Reason and explanation.
• 58:19
  So we say this can be applied to further explain
• 58:21
  from our previous verse 9 in verse 7. Right?
• 58:26
  So we see that verse 8 is a continuation of what?
• 58:30
  Of verse 7. Praise God. Amen? So what we read?
• 58:36
  Afterwards, from verse 8. Can you see verse 8,
• 58:39
  everybody? Let's go to verse 8 now. Verse 8 to
• 58:42
  10. Do you know that from verse 8 to 10 is the
• 58:43
  same communication? You know it's the same communication,
• 58:46
  right? Let's read it together now. One to go.
• 58:53
  Can you see that there's no full stop there?
• 59:00
  Next, verse 9. gifts of healing by the same Spirit.
• 59:06
  10. To another, the walking of miracles. To another,
• 59:10
  prophecy. To another, diverse kinds of tongues.
• 59:13
  To another, interpretation of tongues. 11. Now,
• 59:16
  but all these walketh that one and self same
• 59:20
  Spirit dividing towards every man severely as
• 59:23
  what? As he will. Can you see that it's a complete
• 59:25
  communication? Is that how it is in your Bible?
• 59:30
  Praise God. So now, That word, for, we said explanation,
• 59:39
  right? Then what does it mean to one? It says
• 59:42
  for to one. That to one, does it mean to a one
• 59:45
  believer, to second believer, to third believer,
• 59:47
  to fourth believer? What does it mean? It's important
• 59:52
  because we must know it. It's going to help us
• 59:54
  when we begin to practice the things of the Spirit,
• 59:56
  amen? For to one. So that word, to one. That
• 1:00:02
  word, to one and to another. You know, if you
• 1:00:05
  observe the verse 8 says, so to learn is given
• 1:00:08
  what? By the Spirit. Then there's another place
• 1:00:11
  here, to another. The word of knowledge. Verse
• 1:00:15
  9 says that how? To another. In that verse 9,
• 1:00:19
  he said, okay, verse 10, he started by another
• 1:00:23
  what? To another. There's another place again,
• 1:00:27
  to another. Prophecy. To another. Designing of
• 1:00:31
  Spirit. To another. So we have two words there.
• 1:00:34
  To one and to another, it does not refer to as
• 1:00:40
  interpreted in your English language. You know,
• 1:00:43
  in English language, when we say, can you pass
• 1:00:47
  this pen to Pastor Fred? You're already giving
• 1:00:51
  direction, right? You're already saying that
• 1:00:53
  this pen should directly go to who? To this particular
• 1:00:59
  person. Amen? But you see, because... This scripture
• 1:01:03
  is not written in English language. You can't
• 1:01:06
  just automatically infer that meaning to it.
• 1:01:09
  That because the scripture says four to one,
• 1:01:13
  you say, ah, to one means to this believer. To
• 1:01:17
  another, it means to another believer. To the
• 1:01:20
  third believer, you can't say that. Amen? So
• 1:01:23
  we now have to go to the original context in
• 1:01:26
  which the scripture has been written to be able
• 1:01:28
  to have a clear understanding about what's...
• 1:01:32
  Paul was speaking. Amen? Are we all here? Are
• 1:01:36
  we all here? Okay. So now, that's a misconception
• 1:01:40
  that we're about clearing now. Praise God. Because
• 1:01:44
  he didn't say to another, he said to Sister Chokobleke,
• 1:01:46
  his word of wisdom. To Brother Kokoko, his word
• 1:01:50
  of wisdom. Chimbunku is only divine miracles.
• 1:01:55
  You are using your English head, which we are
• 1:01:58
  coming to it now, when we go a little bit deeper
• 1:02:00
  now. When it comes to the things of the Spirit,
• 1:02:02
  it's important, but you don't use your English
• 1:02:05
  head to it. Praise God. Amen? You will see where
• 1:02:09
  your mind comes to play. And it's going to help
• 1:02:12
  us here when we practice the things of the Spirit.
• 1:02:14
  Praise God. So don't be in a haste. You see these
• 1:02:17
  thin tongues? See this interpretation of tongues?
• 1:02:19
  So far so good. Did I say anything that is not
• 1:02:22
  scriptural? Did I say anything? Please, if you
• 1:02:26
  are doubting though, and you have time, You can
• 1:02:29
  open BLB. This is a teaching center. And be checking
• 1:02:32
  and be following. Amen? Is there anything that
• 1:02:35
  we have said that is not in the Bible? No? Okay,
• 1:02:38
  good. So now, we can use interlinear and ETC.
• 1:02:45
  So that works to one. If you take the Greek word
• 1:02:52
  to one or two. It's not, like I say, it's not
• 1:02:58
  your English word referring to give a direction.
• 1:03:00
  It's horse. Greek word is horse. H -O -S. H -O
• 1:03:05
  -S. Horse. That word to one, to. H -O -S. Horse.
• 1:03:12
  Which implies a form of article as they. T -H
• 1:03:18
  -E. Or we can say that. What. Which. Who. To
• 1:03:28
  one. That word to. The Greek word for it is what?
• 1:03:31
  Is horse. H -O -S. It implies or means what?
• 1:03:35
  The. A definite article. That word T -H -E. Right?
• 1:03:41
  Or what? Or that? Or which? Or who? Amen? So,
• 1:03:56
  and it serves as what? It's a demonstrative pronoun.
• 1:04:00
  So, because we are talking about explaining.
• 1:04:03
  So, we say verse 8 is explaining what? Verse
• 1:04:06
  7, right? Yes. So, what we say, let's do small
• 1:04:10
  English. What is pronoun? Pronoun now. Somebody
• 1:04:18
  say before now. Is used in place. Of a noun,
• 1:04:26
  right? Good. So, we said demonstrated pronoun.
• 1:04:30
  What do we mean? What is a noun? English. So,
• 1:04:37
  verse 7. Who is the noun in verse 7? The Holy
• 1:04:41
  Spirit. So, which means that verse 8 will be
• 1:04:44
  that we want to give further explanation to what?
• 1:04:47
  To the matter or the discourse in what? In verse
• 1:04:50
  7. It will not be that we are introducing another
• 1:04:53
  noun. Amen? We are not introducing another person
• 1:04:57
  in verse 8. We are still talking about who? The
• 1:05:01
  Holy Ghost. Amen? Stay with me. Praise God. So
• 1:05:07
  now, then we now, if we check now, it says, verse
• 1:05:11
  8, 4 to 1 is given by what? By the Spirit. So
• 1:05:18
  that word, by, that word, by the Spirit, is translated
• 1:05:23
  from the word, Dia, D -I -A. You see, it's not
• 1:05:28
  your English words because this Bible was never
• 1:05:32
  written in English. And that is why it's important
• 1:05:36
  that we are learning this. It's going to help
• 1:05:39
  us. Bye. Some people have pen. They are not even
• 1:05:55
  writing with it. So I saw him do it like this.
• 1:05:59
  Uh -huh. You see, Paso Vico came with extra.
• 1:06:04
  So that word by, thank you, Holy Spirit. Hello
• 1:06:09
  there. So it's translated from the word, Greek
• 1:06:12
  word, what? The Greek word for it is dia, which
• 1:06:14
  means because of. Because of. Because of who?
• 1:06:32
  So we give further explanation. That which, who,
• 1:06:41
  what, then by, because of the Spirit. Amen? Then
• 1:06:49
  we now go to the world to another. Because these
• 1:06:53
  are keywords from that conversation, right? For
• 1:06:56
  to one, and then what? To another. There has
• 1:06:59
  been a repetition of to another, to another,
• 1:07:00
  to another, right? So, we're going to get these
• 1:07:03
  two phrases together because they're going to
• 1:07:05
  help us link the entire context. So that we will
• 1:07:08
  know whether it's talking about different people
• 1:07:10
  or it's still talking about the Holy Ghost. Amen?
• 1:07:13
  That word, to another, was translated from the
• 1:07:19
  Greek word, de. D -E. And which means also, noun,
• 1:07:31
  moreover. It means also, noun, moreover, order.
• 1:07:54
  Also, now, moreover, what? Order, to another.
• 1:08:00
  Also, order. Amen? Moreover, order. Praise God.
• 1:08:06
  Now, order. Amen? Are we all there? So we can
• 1:08:13
  see that the word to one or to another will now...
• 1:08:20
  Tell us more about the gifts of the Spirit. Which
• 1:08:27
  he mentioned in 8 to what? To 10. Praise God.
• 1:08:33
  Amen. He will not be talking about the what?
• 1:08:38
  He will not be talking about humans. He will
• 1:08:41
  be talking about what? The gifts. So now let
• 1:08:44
  me tie up the place for us now. Let's go to verse
• 1:08:47
  7. With this understanding. But the unveiling
• 1:08:52
  or the making bare of the Spirit is given to
• 1:08:57
  all believers. To do what? To profit with all.
• 1:09:01
  Hallelujah. What is the word for that we said?
• 1:09:06
  Reason. Right? And because of this reason, right?
• 1:09:13
  It's given by the Spirit. Word of what? Wisdom.
• 1:09:16
  So, through the Spirit, word of wisdom is what?
• 1:09:20
  Is giving. Hallelujah. Are we all there? What
• 1:09:26
  is to another? Also, praise God. Thank you. Some
• 1:09:32
  people are with me. Also, the word of what? Other.
• 1:09:37
  That word other is another noun. Also, the word
• 1:09:41
  of knowledge. Moreover, the word of what? Knowledge,
• 1:09:46
  sorry, wisdom, word of wisdom. Moreover, the
• 1:09:48
  word of knowledge by what? The same Spirit. So
• 1:09:52
  when we are saying this, when the Holy Ghost
• 1:09:55
  is unveiled, when the Holy Ghost is made bare
• 1:09:59
  through the believer, you're going to see what?
• 1:10:02
  A display of word of wisdom. You're going to
• 1:10:05
  see a display of word of knowledge. You're going
• 1:10:08
  to see a display of what? You're going to see
• 1:10:13
  a display of gifts of spirit. You're going to
• 1:10:15
  see a display of walking of miracles. You're
• 1:10:18
  going to see a display of another, of prophecy.
• 1:10:21
  You're going to see a display of kinds of tongues.
• 1:10:24
  You're going to see a display of what? Of interpretation
• 1:10:27
  of what? Of tongues. All this will be happening
• 1:10:32
  in how many people? In how many people? All believers,
• 1:10:41
  right? So which means, if I meet one believer,
• 1:10:45
  I can see what? All of them in that believer.
• 1:10:50
  So that place is not talking about one believer.
• 1:10:53
  You see, all that we did. When you go home, go
• 1:10:56
  and sit down, open it and go through it. Carry
• 1:10:59
  concordance from anywhere. Sit down and... Amen?
• 1:11:05
  You realize that... One believer has a word of
• 1:11:09
  wisdom. You have a word of faith. No, no, no,
• 1:11:11
  no, no, no. Remember, we can't love because it's
• 1:11:14
  for. To give explanation to what? To verse 7.
• 1:11:19
  So, we're not saying that when the Holy Ghost
• 1:11:21
  is made bare. When the Holy Ghost is revealed,
• 1:11:24
  is made plain. As the Holy Ghost meets the eye.
• 1:11:27
  These are the things we are going to see. Praise
• 1:11:29
  God. And it's happening through the believer.
• 1:11:33
  Amen. So he has done good work about that. But
• 1:11:53
  let's just run over it. 1 Corinthians 12, 4.
• 1:11:56
  That verse 4. He said, Now there are what? Diversities
• 1:11:59
  of geeks, but what? The same spirit. Have you
• 1:12:01
  noticed that? All through from that verse 4,
• 1:12:04
  it has been the same spirit, the same spirit,
• 1:12:06
  the same spirit, the same spirit, the same spirit.
• 1:12:08
  All this communication is about this. All these
• 1:12:16
  events, activities are happening in the room.
• 1:12:18
  in that same believer that carries the Holy Ghost.
• 1:12:22
  Hallelujah. Praise God. Hallelujah. This knowledge
• 1:12:26
  is important because it's going to help us. What
• 1:12:36
  is diversity? Tell me, help me, help me. There
• 1:12:43
  are races, right? Yes, so. When you see verse
• 1:12:48
  4, it says there are diversities of gifts, but
• 1:12:49
  the saying, I would say that diversity is what?
• 1:12:52
  Diversities, from the root word, D -I -R -E -O.
• 1:12:55
  D -I -R -E -O. To separate a singular thing.
• 1:13:02
  Amen? To divide into parts. We have one thing,
• 1:13:07
  and we are dividing it into what? Diversities.
• 1:13:12
  D -I -R -E -O. And then to distribute a single
• 1:13:19
  thing. Into what? Into parts. Praise God. So
• 1:13:25
  we see. A singular thing separated into varieties.
• 1:13:32
  Into these things. You know. More than one thing.
• 1:13:37
  Out of one. Hallelujah. Word of wisdom. Out of
• 1:13:41
  who? The Holy Ghost. Word of knowledge. Out of
• 1:13:43
  who? The Holy Ghost. Prophecy. Out of who? The
• 1:13:47
  Holy Ghost. Geeks of healing. Out of who? The
• 1:13:50
  Holy Ghost. Did you see Jesus heal? Was there
• 1:13:53
  another Jesus raising the dead? Was there another
• 1:13:56
  Jesus opening the blind eyes? Was there another
• 1:13:59
  Jesus walking in word of knowledge? How many
• 1:14:01
  Jesus were raising the dead? Were there ten Jesus?
• 1:14:05
  How many? One Jesus. We see Peter opening the
• 1:14:10
  blind eyes. Did you hear another Peter again
• 1:14:13
  raising the lame man? No. How many Peters? One
• 1:14:16
  Peter, hallelujah. One Peter has all the diuresis
• 1:14:21
  of the Holy Ghost. Hallelujah. One Costin having
• 1:14:25
  all the diuresis of the Holy Ghost. Praise God.
• 1:14:28
  One Alec having all the diuresis of what? Of
• 1:14:31
  the Holy Ghost. Hallelujah. Can we pray in the
• 1:14:35
  Holy Ghost in two minutes? Can you say thank
• 1:14:39
  you, Holy Spirit, that to me all these things
• 1:14:41
  have been made bare? Through me, all these things
• 1:14:45
  are being made bare. Through me, all these things
• 1:14:49
  are being made bare. Through me, all these things
• 1:14:53
  are being made bare. If you are following or
• 1:15:01
  you are online, through you, all these things
• 1:15:03
  can be made bare. They can be made bare. They
• 1:15:07
  can be made bare because you have the Spirit
• 1:15:08
  of God in your inside. Oh, you have all of them
• 1:15:34
  inside you. You have all of them inside you.
• 1:15:36
  You have all of them inside you. You don't have
• 1:15:39
  some of them. You have them in full measure.
• 1:15:41
  You have them in full measure by the Spirit of
• 1:15:44
  God. We bless you, Lord. In Jesus' name we pray.
• 1:15:51
  In the name of Jesus. So if you're writing like
• 1:15:55
  this, tongues. Is tongue a language unique to
• 1:16:04
  the church or believers in Christ? Is tongues,
• 1:16:10
  in fact, let me put it this way. Is tongue only
• 1:16:13
  a language unique to the church believers in
• 1:16:18
  Christ? Question mark. Is tongues only, is tongues
• 1:16:26
  only because, you know, one of our pastors wrote
• 1:16:29
  a book, Must Every Christian Speak in Tongues?
• 1:16:31
  Very rich book. I left it in Nigeria a while.
• 1:16:36
  addressing why tongues is for every believer.
• 1:16:40
  Praise God. Because he has met a couple of people,
• 1:16:43
  right, from different sects of the church, different
• 1:16:48
  denominations, that's what I mean, that don't
• 1:16:50
  believe that tongues is for every believer. So
• 1:16:58
  is tongues for every believer? That's what that
• 1:17:01
  place is saying. Praise God. Is every believer
• 1:17:04
  supposed to speak in tongues? If you're here,
• 1:17:10
  if you have that question in your heart, the
• 1:17:12
  Holy Spirit will answer it. Amen? And after then,
• 1:17:16
  you know one of these days, which we're going
• 1:17:19
  to do probably maybe tomorrow or next, when we
• 1:17:22
  say pray, we'll tell two people, we say put your
• 1:17:26
  ear on the person right here. Is he praying in
• 1:17:29
  tongues? Or is he saying what? You know, some
• 1:17:33
  people, when we say pray in tongues, they switch
• 1:17:35
  to French. Straight. You know? So why you just
• 1:17:48
  put your ear? You say, ah, my ear. Or they switch
• 1:17:58
  straight to King Rwanda. Or switch to one language.
• 1:18:04
  Well, you see, by the Spirit of God, we know
• 1:18:05
  the language we are speaking here. Can anybody
• 1:18:09
  raise his hands? Let's do this by the Spirit
• 1:18:11
  of God. That is if you believe in what we are
• 1:18:14
  about doing. But if you don't believe it, however,
• 1:18:16
  still raise your hand because you still speak
• 1:18:17
  in tongues. Amen? Can you say in Jesus' name,
• 1:18:22
  I believe that I have the Spirit of God in me
• 1:18:25
  and I believe that I have all the diversities
• 1:18:28
  of the Spirit in me and I believe I can speak
• 1:18:32
  in tongues. and also interpret the tongues by
• 1:18:36
  the Spirit of God. Hallelujah. Yes, that's your
• 1:18:41
  reality. Amen? So, but however, let's look at
• 1:18:44
  it in the Word. Amen? So, 1 Corinthians 14, verse
• 1:18:47
  2. 1 Corinthians 14, verse 2. And we'll build
• 1:18:57
  from here tomorrow by God's grace. So tomorrow
• 1:19:02
  in the morning, it's not going to be like this.
• 1:19:05
  Amen? Yeah, so it's going to be a marathon. From
• 1:19:09
  one scripture, I will come here with a serious
• 1:19:12
  face. Very serious. Right? Yes, tomorrow I will
• 1:19:18
  come with a serious face. The only person that
• 1:19:20
  is permitted that I will joke with, right, is
• 1:19:23
  my wife. Yes. Yes, so I will come here with a
• 1:19:28
  serious face from beginning to end. If I don't
• 1:19:33
  joke with her. You know. Praise God. The Lord
• 1:19:40
  will give you understanding. You know. Yeah,
• 1:19:43
  so. And then we go. Amen. But let's just read
• 1:19:50
  this and then we stop here and we're going to
• 1:19:51
  pray. Hallelujah. In fact, with what we have
• 1:19:55
  done in verse 7 and verse 8. Amen. It's sufficient
• 1:20:00
  for us to start out something. Hallelujah. Praise
• 1:20:03
  God. It's sufficient for us to do what? To start
• 1:20:07
  out something here right now. Hallelujah. 14
• 1:20:11
  verse 2 now. For he. For he. Let's start from
• 1:20:16
  verse 1. Follow after charity. Right? And desire
• 1:20:22
  what? Spiritual gifts. But rather that ye may.
• 1:20:45
  Write this definition for tongues now. You see,
• 1:20:49
  I've closed my Bible now. Write this definition
• 1:20:52
  for tongues. Tongues. It's translated from the
• 1:20:56
  Greek word glossa. Glossa or lalia. Glossa. G
• 1:21:04
  -L -O -S -S -A. Glossa or lalia. L -A -L -E -A.
• 1:21:11
  Glossa lalia. Glossa or what? Lalia. Which refer
• 1:21:17
  to a dialect. A dialect. Dialect. When we say
• 1:21:24
  dialect, we mean language, which refers to a
• 1:21:27
  dialect, a language, in speaking, talking, or
• 1:21:34
  uttering words. So we're joining glosa, lalia
• 1:21:39
  together, amen? So glosa or lalia means dialect
• 1:21:44
  or language in what? Speaking, talking, or what?
• 1:21:48
  Or uttering words. Hands! When we say I speak
• 1:21:54
  in tongues or in other tongues, it's primarily
• 1:21:58
  a supernatural ability. Pastor Victor said it.
• 1:22:06
  Laying on of hands is a supernatural activity.
• 1:22:09
  Amen. So also with Grosalalia. Speaking in tongues
• 1:22:13
  is a supernatural what? Ability. Activity. In
• 1:22:18
  the spirit of every what? Believer. Praise God.
• 1:22:23
  Let me say the line you wrote for the last time
• 1:22:25
  and we rise to our feet now and do some activities.
• 1:22:28
  Hallelujah. Hands. Punks. Punks. Is formerly
• 1:22:37
  a supernatural what? Ability in the spirit of
• 1:22:42
  the believer. So it's an innate ability. When
• 1:22:48
  we say innate ability, we mean something that
• 1:22:50
  is natural to the believer. Hallelujah. The believer
• 1:22:54
  does not learn it. When we say something is innate,
• 1:22:58
  it's not learned. It comes factory fitted. Amen.
• 1:23:03
  When you receive the Holy Ghost, inside the Holy
• 1:23:07
  Ghost, you also receive new tongues. Praise God.
• 1:23:11
  Nobody needs to teach you. Amen. Hallelujah.
• 1:23:15
  We're going to build on that tomorrow morning.
• 1:23:17
  Can we rise to our feet?
