So you now see something now that from the Old Testament now, from the Joshua, we are now seeing our reality, present day reality. Did you now see that you cannot discard Old Testament from your Bible? Because Old Testament is actually the New Testament conceived. And New Testament is Old Testament revealed. So no one is not going to be suspended from another. Because probably one of the questions in your heart presently now as you are hearing me is that, Pastor, why should I be reading Old Testament again? Since we have a New Testament. And the New Testament is my reality in Christ Jesus. So now we are starting this old journey. Are you getting it now? We are starting this old journey from the Old Testament and then I am explaining the New to you. Because you are product of the New. You are not actually the product of the Old. Did you understand that this morning? Glory to God. Hallelujah. He said, This book of the Lord shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate day and night. When should you meditate upon it? Is it only in the daytime? Only in the evening time? Only in the night time after work? When you hear day and night, it means according to the times of life. Day and night means the time of life. We shall meditate upon it according to the times of life. Meaning you have days. You have nights. Hello, is there anybody here that does not have nights? All that you have in this life is days. Let me see your hands up. I don't have nights. Only days I have. Don't you even know, let me even ask you this. Don't you even know when you are sleeping, you are still active? Somebody here understand that? You think when you are sleeping that, oh. See, don't let this cultural belief system that when I sleep in the night, I already die. When I wake up in the morning, that is when I am alive again. You are not dead. Oh God, you are still breathing. You are still breathing. You are alive in Christ. Did you understand what I am saying now? You are alive in Christ. That is why you can control things. Don't you see some people when they sleep in the night, they will dream that they went to the toilet. And before you know, in the morning, is it diabolical or maybe you are not conscious? You understand now? So they have already used the day to overcome the night. So they give themselves much to the daytime. So the nighttime, they become useless. But when you are so conscious of the night also, by the time you are sleeping in the night, you are still active. That is why someone like us... In fact, haven't you seen it? Sometimes, somebody will say that I slept and I saw pastor, I saw reverend in my dream. I saw reverend in my dream trying to defend me like this. And I was actually sleeping. But the real sleeping, I am not actually sleeping, the real sleeping. Are you getting it now? My spirit is active watching over you. Did you understand that now? Glory to God. Amen. Let me quickly read the next one so that before we quickly start picking the questions. Psalm 119. Psalm 119, verse 9. Okay. Okay, the last part of 1.8. Joshua 1.8. It says, Thou mayest observe according to all that is written therein. For then thou shalt make thy way prosper. Who will make your way prosper? Open your Bible and read now. Who will make your way prosper? Read your Bible, Joshua 1.8. Joshua 1.8. Who will make your way prosper? Who will make your way prosper? Look at it, Joshua 1.8. It says, That thou mayest observe. Who is giving that responsibility to observe? Hello? Who is giving the responsibility to observe? It is you. You are giving the responsibility to observe. That what observe there actually was not referring to something like maybe that you should be, let me be watching. Let me be watching. No. That you should pay attention into your reality in Christ Jesus. That is what that is all about. Glory to God. That may observe to do because when you pay attention you will give yourself to do all that is written therein. For then thou shalt make thy way. When you observe, when you pay attention, what will happen to you? Hello? Are you there, Joshua 1.8? When you observe, which means you are paying attention, what will happen to you? Hello? What will happen to you? So when you are not prospering, what does that mean to you? Meaning you are not paying attention. Meaning you are not paying attention to the right thing that you should pay attention into. My life is ups and downs. Things are not working properly for me. I will be up today, down tomorrow. Oh, things will flourish today and then tomorrow things will sound as if maybe I am under a curse. Why? Oh, maybe probably my fellow people is behind me. They sleep at a particular stage of my life and then I prosper. When they wake again, things are going down in my life. Glory to God. And you know what? You are already a tongue speaking believer. Very tongue speaking believer. What is actually, where can we trace the problem into now? Because we are diagonizing where all those things are coming from. Are you paying attention to what I am saying? We are diagonizing where those problems are coming from this time around. Why should my life be like this? Why should I suffer from heart attack? Why should I be not showing pains? Why should I be facing the problem every year? When it is getting towards the ending of the year, I always have this setback of a thing. Why these are the times of my life? Why is a situation of life becoming this hard for me? As if I am not serving God. Even people that are not even born again are enjoying God in one way or the other. Why is it me that have God? Each time we come to church, we claim that God is in me. Why is that God not functioning? Why is that God not manifesting His power in my life? These are the questions in your heart. These are the questions. Why my admission not come in time? Why am I suffering setback in paying my school fees? Why is it everybody is neglecting me already? Why am I living my life as if nobody cares for me? Look at it again it says, That thou may observe to do according to all that is written therein. So that you may observe according to everything that is written therein. So everything that is written therein, so many that you may... Oh! Kabarye Bunda, verse 72 That you may be saved and come into knowledge of your reality, of your new status. So that is what it is telling. That you may observe that this is my reality in God. This is who I am. You don't just declare it, hello look up here. Confession, confession, confession don't change things. Confession don't change things. Are you getting it now? Ok let me put it this way so that you understand it. You don't confess to see. Hello! You don't confess things so that you can see that thing. Write it down before I finish it. You don't confess things. You don't confess that thing before you see it. So that you can see it. You don't confess things so that you can see it. No! No! No! No! You don't confess things so that you can see that thing as a believer. Oh! Now complete it now. You confess your reality and your reality manifests. You confess because that is your reality. Then does your reality manifest. You don't confess, hello look up here. Hello everybody look up here. I am a girl. I am a girl. I am a girl. I will dress as a girl. Ok now let me say this now. Ok let me put it clear. I am a man. I am a man. Is it that confession that will make you a man or you are already a man? You are already a man before you can confess that I am a man. So when you are saying that I am a man, you are calling yourself to order that you pay attention that I am a man. No matter what I am facing I am a man. So the man wouldn't mean we match. So you don't confess that I am born again. I am born again. You are already born. That is why you are confessing. Did you understand now? You are already born. So when you are now saying I am already born, I am born again, you know what you are saying? You are telling all your systems that this is your reality. No. You don't give no to answer. You don't give down. You don't back down with the issues of life. You declare things. I function in my reality like this. Did you understand that now? But when you have not paid attention, when you have not observed, look up, this is where the cross is. If you have not observed that this is who I am, this is what I can do, this is what the God can do in me. If you are saying I have life of Christ, I have life of God, I have life of Christ, I have life of God, it will not pass beyond these leaves. There is no conviction in your heart that this is who I am. Hello, look up here. There is a how, when in that example, when everything seems blur. I am born of God. I have the mind of Christ. I have the life of Christ inside of me. No failure is permitted. Even if I did not understand my teacher, this time around I have the mind of angel. I have the heart beyond the angelic realm. I have the supernatural life. I have supernatural mentality. I have supernatural heart that can grab things. Now in the name of Jesus, things are working. You claim that and much more you have the name of Jesus. Which you can now use to control and control things. And put things in order. Did you understand now? That is how a man, a young man, a young man like you, like us there, that is how a young man can prosper. But if you leave everything at the ends of the flesh, you may never prosper according to God's term. And if you don't prosper according to God's term, you are not prospering. Nothing called prosperity. That is why you see, that is why sometimes, the body seems fighting to call prosperity preachers. Because it is as what they taught, as what they are teaching, or what they are emphasizing as a prosperity, is actually something that can be achieved through the ends of the flesh. And that was where the emphasis has always been. But they did prosper. Now pay attention. I am not saying in this context that you will not prosper in the things that are, in the things of the flesh or whatever that is. But the real definition of prosperity is actually in this, that we are discussing this morning. Glory to God. I hope your questions are getting here already. Some of them are there. Okay. Psalm 119, verse 9. 119, verse 9. Hallelujah. Psalm 119, verse 9. Let me quickly read that. Where would all shall a young man cleanse his way? Psalm 119, verse 11. Psalm 119, verse 11. Where would all shall a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed thereunto according to thy will. Taking heed according to thy will. So where we, oh Lord Jesus, I have been seen failure in my life in one way or the other. How will failure start? Glory to God. How will failure start? How will failure start? Sorry. Where would all shall a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed. Psalm 119, verse 11. Okay, verse 9. Sorry. We are going to 11. Sorry. Verse 9. Where will, okay. Where would all shall a young man cleanse his way? Verse 9, from verse 9. By taking heed thereunto according to thy will. Hello? According to what? According to thy will. He said, with my whole heart I sought thee. Oh let me not wander from thy commandment. Hello? If there is anything, if there is anyone that majority of believers and Christians of today want to follow the patterns of in this life today, it's David. Are we? All Davids have God. In fact, that is why a lot of people name their children David. Because David is a man after God's heart. According to Abbey. So but this same David is now giving you clue here. He's telling you something here. David is saying something to you here. So you don't pay attention but you name your child David. And your own David is growing. Your own David is growing. He's going wayward. He's moving here and there anyhow. He's behaving misbehaving anyhow. Instead of you to tell him that, ok, Psalm 119 verse 9. Hello? 119 verse 9 says, Where would thou shall your young man cleanse his way? By taking it thereunto according to thy will. Glory to God. With my whole heart have I sought thee. Oh let me not wander from thy commandment. Thy will have I in my heart. Verse 11. Verse 11 says, Thy will have I in my heart that I may not sin against thee. This very verse guide my destiny for long. Ah, ah, it guides me. It guides me. Then while we are even in school. It guides me a lot. It guides me. It puts me off a lot of things. Sometimes I will refer back to this one. It will caution me. It's like an anchor. This Psalm, I don't read to you, it's like an anchor of my life. The moment my life is going beyond some like a disarray, I wanted to blend with another system or another set of being in life. That one way or the other, one way or the other, I will just know how. Supernaturally, I will just know by the leading of the Spirit. Maybe somebody will quote it in the fellowship or somebody will quote it in the one message I'm listening to. Or maybe Papa will quote it somewhere, somehow. This message, this verse will just come again. And I will just hold on to it. Glory to God that I may not heed against you. Let me answer the first question before we move on. Colossians chapter 3, verse 14. Colossians chapter 3, verse 14. Glory to God. When confidence was taking the Bible study, as if maybe confidence had seen my note. Confidence said we should read that verse, what do you call it, to get together, I think verse 14, verse 16. Glory to God. Are you there? Okay, okay. The first one. Okay, read it, read the first one. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. And just for relevance sake, if you want to come out to ask your question, you can see, come outside. Okay, the first question said, how do we know a good Christian? That is the first question. How do we know a good Christian? Do you want everything or... How do we know a good Christian? Okay. How do we know a good Christian? How are you looking for a good Christian? Glory to God. Is there a name there? A good Christian, hello, a good Christian is every Christian that is actually sincerely born of God. So how do we know them is the core question now. I think that question is coming from the angle of... Or not. Do we have good Christians or bad Christians? Well, when you are coming up with... If the question is coming from that angle that do we actually have a good or bad Christian, are you getting it now? There is no bad Christian. There is no bad Christian. But there are people that condone themselves as the bad ones. Because what we mean by Christian is we mean that Christ like people. Are you getting it now? So when you are not saying the bad Christian, you are referring to maybe God gave a bad one. So there is no bad Christian but there are people that condone themselves. They are acting contrary to their original. Did you understand now? Like example I gave you some time ago. Like I brought a phone outside here. Are you following what I am saying now? Hello, are we together here? I brought a phone outside here. Hello Moa, drop that water and come here fast. Be fast, be fast. Come and drop it here. Drop it to God. Stand here. Everybody look at Moa. Okay, everybody look at Moa. Is she a female or male? She is a female. Is she a female or male? She is a female. Oh yeah, let me ask you. Is he male or female? He is a female. Did... Hello... Did you see now that the question has already told you that is what happened to bad Christians. What do you tag as a bad Christian? Identity crisis. So now imagine she just goes ahead and put on a cap. Put on a trouser. Are you getting me now? Has that changed her from a female? Has that changed her from a female? But she is acting according to her own culture here. She is acting contrary to her own reality, according to her own personality. So that's what happens when you see somebody behaving outside being Christ like. So it's not a bad Christian but it's acting contrary to his own reality. So it's not a bad Christian. So in your own heart, in your own reception, so don't work, don't perceive him as a bad person. So let the love... Let me hear the second one. Thank you. Bless you. Okay, thank you Pastor. The second question says, please explain who a Christian and a believer is. Is there any difference? There was... Glory to God. Generally it has always been accepted. It's just the presentation that brought all those... And then the phrases that brought all those difference. You understand now. Now there is no... You see, Christian is a Christ like people. Believe... And then those Christ like people actually mean people that believe in the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Are you getting it now? People that believe in the man Christ Jesus. Hello? Pay attention to this. Pay attention to this. The person that believes that he can make Jesus, that is a Christian. So you will be like him. So you believe that the same Jesus that walked through the Samaria, the same Jesus that was tired, the same Jesus that was sleeping. You know there was a particular... I saw it in a blog post... I think we have seen it already in the Bible. It says, it gets a particular stage of Jesus, that Jesus was so tired and he slept. When he slept, Jesus was resting. This water was entering that, that took to everywhere. Okay, I just see the sleeper. Okay, I just see sleeping. And disciples was looking there, are you getting it now? So the same Jesus that was tired in that way, the same Jesus that walked through Samaria, the same Jesus that healed the sick, the same Jesus that... Hello? Are you getting it now? It is that same Jesus that died and was buried. And it is that same Jesus that rose again. When you believe that... Hello? You know what? Everybody pay attention. You know what? When you believe that, you become Christ-like. That is the word Christian. The word Christian was first of all called by the way people observe the conduct of the people that are born of God. Get this one. The word Christian was first of all coined out from people observing the people that... They started observing that the way these people are behaving, they are behaving like Jesus that died. That same Jesus. So meaning they are Christ-like. These are Christ-like people. Did you understand now? So, and these Christ-like people, who are they? They are the ones that believe in the Resurrection. So meaning, believer, Christian is the same thing. And likewise, in addition, saints, the same thing. Did you understand that now? So, saints, Christians, believers, hello? Born again, son of God, all of them are the same thing. You are saying the same thing. Are you getting it now? So we interchangeably use it as its occasion demands or as the discussion demands. Did you understand that now? The next question, bless you. Hallelujah. Thank you, sir. Okay, this question is, I think we are answering a broad... Yes, broad, it's broad. ...knowledge and... Pastor, pastor, please get me... Okay, this question is diverting us to relationship. Relationship, okay, fine. And it says, is it right to be in a relationship at the age of 20? Is it advisable to be in a relationship at the age of 20? Glory to God. Hallelujah. For such a question, look up everybody and please pay attention to this. It's very key. Even if you are not 20, if you are 30, you will see gain from this very question. Are you getting what I'm saying now? So in this life, what actually determine or what define when you should be in a relationship? Glory to God. Thank you. Hallelujah. Please, help my ministry too. Oh, God, give me water. Water, lady, I want this. Thank you. Okay, is it advisable for a man or woman or lady or guy to be in a relationship at the age of 20? If you pay attention to the other time that we did, what do you call it now? What is the seminar, the class again? Perfect love. Perfect love. Mama came up to take a particular topic and she was actually referring to a love, a way to get everybody to flourish. So Mama, my wife gave advice and I gave her a particular topic, what I actually talked about, the purpose, referring to purpose. The first thing in this life that you need to get right, are you following what I'm saying? The first thing you need to get right in this life is actually to find purpose. When your purpose is the word divine, and then, in fact, let me tell you, what is a relationship? Relationship actually in this sense, are you getting it now? When you are born of God, relationship actually means that you are finding a compliment. That is what the definition I'm giving you to it now. I hope somebody is writing something down. So relationship actually means a compliment, compliments or partner that go with you in the journey of life. And if you have not found a purpose in life, you should never talk or you should never think about anything called relationship. If you have never found a purpose in this life, if you have never found a purpose in this life, you should never, it should not even ring in your mind, that relationship. What for? You know why? Pay attention to this. You know why? Listen everybody, you know why? Number one, the partner that is coming, ok let me start with this. Number one thing, when you find purpose in this life first, then you will know what you need. That is exactly as it was, actually I bring it to my life. You will know what is missing in part of your life, that that person coming to your life, what is coming to do. But you don't know what the person is, you have not even know yourself. You have not find yourself. You don't know, your life has not get any meaning. But you are now talking about relationship, to do what? To complicate the matter, to complicate the life that has not actually get any meaning. Let's be sincere, this is a huge charge. Let's be sincere. Relationship or what at age of 20? Aye, no problem, ok even age of 20, fine. If at that age of 20, you have, you have born again, you have born of God, are you getting what I am saying now? You have finished the school, you have finished serving, then you have already decided this is what I am going to do with my life. Then you have started re-assigning, you have started taking step one after the other. This is what I want to do with my life and you have started taking step one after the other. This thing I just tell you, I didn't get it from big book. Oh God of heaven and the earth, I didn't get it from big book. I got it from a small, what very small book. You know what, the day I got that, it was, all the book, it was not even for luminous at all. It just, it's easy. But the matter of that book will just be like a, maybe 30 page, very small book. I have read a lot of books, didn't answer that thing in me, I tell you. But the day I find that thing, it actually agree with the living of the spirits in me. That, ok now, now for example, now I don't, you see, there is this proverb in Yoruba, hello? There is this proverb in Yoruba, I'm sorry, our audience, you please don't be angry with this. It says, the proverb says, the person that we are, the person that we are feeding, the person that is feeding, that is not looking for how to feed somebody else, and is not born, and not looking for how to born somebody else. You have not even, your life has not getting a meaning, and you are looking for somebody else to attach with. How bad? Did you understand? Somebody is taking care of you, your life, in a, in a simple answer to that, at the age of 20, you should still be in your stage where you are getting, you are trying to find purpose right. And if you have even find purpose at age of 20, that is the time that you are now setting the base, foundation, you are setting a foundation where you will now need to build something on. And in the name of trying to build something on it, that is where you will find the partner. Are you getting that, because if you are not careful, that is where serving breakfast always come from. You will not get, you will not get along, I realize that, no, come, I realize that our life is not compatible. Did you understand? You see, our life is not compatible. Let me quickly give you this one. While I was in, while I was in, while I was in, while I was in polytechnic in the Red, you know what, something happened to me, you know, everybody is just blending, having relationship, and then, and I was looking like, and then, am I the only one, what's happening? And then, in the, where we live, where I first of all live in the town, yeah, but later on, I had to relocate to very close by town to the school, because the house there are cheap, and then later on somebody gave me free apartment there. My friends and others always be concerned, like, what are you looking for in that, that, or something like that. And people play, or who are, something like that, you know, so they always play. But right there, because they see me as only person, pay attention to this, they see me as a responsible person in the fellowship, only person in the fellowship, and I know majority of them are in relationship. I just look at it, okay, let me to do something, and I was secretly doing it in where I was living. I just find it in the gym, I was like to, let's be dating, let's be dating, let's be having time. And I realized that any time my mommy send money, or my people send something to me, I will share part of it, with her, her, it will be good, okay, I got, what is it? Are you following what I'm saying now? So, I will be sharing, I will be sharing part of those things, because I want to impress her. I want her to feel that you are dating, you are dating somebody from a bad door, you are dating two dames. Did you understand? And then, out of what is not even enough, it's not even enough for me, I will still share. That is what the love can do sometimes, you understand? But it's doing it in the wrong way. Any and all, me that they are feeding me, I will call somebody, that a girl, ah, it's long ago, nothing, no, I want to go, got a little cold, and he say, well, you see, nothing, nothing now, but I will send you, I will send you, that time there is not even bank to transfer all those things, we don't even actually use bank to transfer. We, we, they will send cards, one thousand and five hundred dollar cards, you will go and sell it in a motion card, one, two, one, three. So, the remaining things, you go and use part of it to give girlfriend. That's what we do, do then. Did you understand? So, but where am I coming from? At that time, pay attention to my story, at that time, did you know one of the things that I was hiding this girl in that place, I don't want them to know that I'm dating her in the fellowship. So, another thing I just look at it, one day, this is where I'm coming from, the angle I'm coming from, so that you can learn, you can learn that until you get, you find purpose in life, are you getting what I'm saying now? Ah, are we, are we, okay, are we together? Until you find purpose in life. You know what, as time goes on, please pay attention to this, as time goes on, something happens, I was more devoted to the things of God in my fellowship, and at that time, I started attending one of our mothers' church, close by, in Ikerun or somewhere around the area at that time, and then, they started giving me responsibility as a leader, as a small, as a spiritual person, and then I realized, I said, ah, the way I am being sounding for God, I don't want anything to drag me back, because I love God with all my heart. Did you understand? I now look at it, I say, okay, I now talk to the lady, I now call her, I say, come, me, I am serving God, and this is the church I am attending, the kind of the word of God I'm hearing in this place, it will be good if you can be following me to that church, so that we can hear the same thing. I believe by the time she's hearing that thing, she too will one day change her heart, and say, no, no, no, no, this relationship, let's pause, and get purpose first. I just called her, and I sat her down, and I told her, I said, come, so and so person, did you know what, this relationship that we are into, I don't think that it will be better that we continue this way. You know what we should do? Be following me to my church. She first of all said, no, I cannot follow you to me now, so I like God forbid, that church, I can never attend there. I said, eh? The way I've been sending money, that money that they've been sending to me, fine. From there, within me, even yourself you know, without me completing the story, you know that serving breakfast is coming. No, no, no. I've already found where my life will be better. That is where the purpose is coming back now. I've already found where my life will be better, where my life will grow, where my life will have meaning, and let me tell you the truth of the matter, because I found purpose that time. It was the growth, the building up of that winner, that make me today, that me in ministry. Because from there, to start this ministry. Did you all understand now? So I found purpose that time. So now where my purpose now went to want to be divine, someone that I want to carry along with the journey of life, is now telling me no. So normal, normal, we serve each other breakfast. I just told her, no, this thing cannot work like that. And everybody started looking at it and say, ah, I break her heart. I do this one. No, I am finding purpose and you are not fitting into my purpose in life. That is what happened. The next question. So now you know that at 20, you should find purpose first, not relationship. The Lord bless you. Amen. Did that bless anybody today? Glory to God. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Okay, there are two questions that are looking. Are we together listening? Hello? Praise the Lord. Okay. There are two questions that are looking likewise. Okay. So I want to like combine it. Okay, fine. Now first I will first read it, then I would like to bring out the connection. Alright, sir. Understanding of what we call kingdom relationship among the brothers and sisters. I hope you guys are not turning the whole thing to relationship talk. Okay. This person is trying to... Alright, go ahead, go ahead. This person is trying to understand... Kingdom relationship? The kingdom relationship between brothers and sisters of nowadays. I believe this very person must have observed how people relate. Okay. What really happens when people get disappointed. And the second question now says, it is not from this same person, but I was just saying that... Are you just reinterpreting? Okay. This question says, how can you keep a godly relationship? Okay. Okay. Everybody sit up please. Sit up, sit up, sit up. Sit up everybody. Number one question, kingdom relationship. Hallelujah. You see, kingdom relationship begins from you being born of God. Being in the kingdom of God. And the kingdom of God is in your heart. Being born of God means the kingdom of God is in your heart. Are you getting it now? As fine as rain into your heart. And if kingdom of God is actually fine as rain into your heart, there is a way you conduct yourself. There are do's and don'ts. That is what we read in that very place. That the world have I hid in my heart that I may not sin against you. Do you understand now? So if the Lord is in your heart, and you are not ready to sin, there is a way to conduct yourself in the kingdom relationship. Are you following what I am saying now? So now what is the kingdom relationship? And how can we define kingdom relationship? Kingdom relationship begins even beyond marriage or whatever. Kingdom relationship means that the way you conduct yourself after your reality. Did you understand now? Now, how do I conduct myself after my reality? Are you following what I am saying now? How do I conduct myself? I conduct myself in the love of God. The first law says, the person asking him, he says, which one is the greatest among the law? He says, love the Lord your God, and the second one is like unto it, love thy neighbor. You can't sincerely love your neighbor. You can't sincerely love God and not love your neighbor. Did you understand what I am saying now? You can't sincerely love the Lord your God and not love your neighbor. Hallelujah. So now back to the kingdom relationship or whatever. And I believe the context was actually about this relationship, marriage or whatever. So now, this is how to know about that and how to put that together. The number one thing you should do, you see, when you are meeting somebody, make sure before you even meet somebody, before you even approach somebody that says, oh, can we be dating or can you be dating, before you be dating each other. That is why local trust is very, very important to your life. Are you listening to what I am saying now? That is why local trust is very, very important to your life. You will first of all be observing that brother Lacon in the church prays very well and likes prayer. Are you getting it now? Oh, are you listening to what I am saying now? Sister XYZ in the church is devoted to the things of God too. Are you getting it now? I will give you an example. Listen, I will give you an example of one, practical example of one. Are you getting it now? Brother XYZ, you started observing. Are you getting what I am saying now? One of the things is this. You see, it is in the system that a lot of people think that matchmaking is outdating or whatever. Matchmaking is part of the local trust program agenda. Because you find the first thing in the Genesis. It is from Genesis, they started matchmaking. Are you following what I am saying now? Abraham wanted wife of Isaac. He said, Olga, don't go to these people in the challenge area. Go back to offer. When you get to offer, don't stand in a baleyee compound site. There are guests that used to go and fetch water in the morning. That one. So now, pay attention. Amen, Amen. Now look at it. It did not end there. It did not end there. They will just go to offer and baleyee compound alone. Abraham said, my God will choose for you. Because the man said, how am I going to know the one among them, probably they are most coming to fetch water. So that is why you cannot lay in the arm of the flesh to choose even in the local church. Hello. You cannot depend on the arm of the flesh. Everybody look up here. Because when you depend on the arm of the flesh, when that sister XY said is coming to lead prayer or to take worship or praise or to back up song, all what your arm of the flesh will be seeing is the shape of a body. And the moment that cloud your eyes, you know what? You will never get discernment right. The discernment will not be right. Did you understand what I said this morning? So where am I coming from? In the point of a kingdom relationship. Kingdom relationship begins from how this person is serving God. How is serving God? How is he serving God? How is obedience? How is obedience to the leading of God? How is involved? Let me put this one in addition. How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? How is the person serving God? That is what is actually lacking today. That making someone to say, I met that sister in the church but they end up being divorced. I met that brother in the house of God and he was tongue speaking before. But when he was tongue speaking before, are you listening to me now? Did you have discernment? Did you lay on the arms of the flesh to complete it? So if it is a believer, listen to what I am saying now. It is a Christian, listen, listen, listen. It is a Christian or a tongue speaking believer. But the moment instruction is being passed by his pastor, by his leader, by his what do you call it now? By his leadership leader and he always front others. Always front others. He doesn't see reason why he should obey a pastor all the time. He doesn't see reason why he should obey his self leader. Are you getting what I am saying now? You should know that is already, that should be already telling you that that is danger. Because by the time you get, marriage will expose that thing better. Did you understand what I am saying now? Marriage will expose it better. So you must not marry baby. You must not be in relation. That is why you see sometimes in a local church like this, local church like this that we are like this presently now. It is always good when you see a brother, look at, look here everybody and pay attention to this. It is, there is nothing wrong for a female to approach pastor, your leader that I have been observing brother XYZ or I have been observing sister XYZ. Pastor, pray along with me. The moment you say that to us, we know what you are talking about. So we started putting you a right. Are you getting it now? Even, it may even be, hello listen, hello listen please don't play away with this. We may end up being the person that we call this one and also secretly we will interview the person, interview this one. Before you will go and meet her and serve you that way, ah you have just seen me, I already have somebody. You know it happens. A lot of people in the church, they will already be fixed somewhere and they will be active there. And that thing will not be known to every other person. And you will be thinking within yourself that this is like single, kinikun, kinikun like that. But by the time you approach her, if we just tell you straight away that I am so sorry, I love you as a brother in the church, but it is not possible. Did you all listen now? And listen to this one again. Listen to this one again. But if, hello, look up everybody, but if you approach your pastor, are you getting what I am saying? If you approach your pastor, that pastor, sir, I observe this and this and this, are you getting it now? Pastor too will later on come and say, pastor we pray with you and pastor we call that person. Are you listening to me now? Pastor we call that person and when pastor call that person and interview her one way or the other, did you know what? Pastor has already saved you from having such, ah, it disappears, ah, she slapped me, every, it is not praying fast day or two or three. You have already prayed, you know imagine in the church, in church, somebody have already seen a sister singing or a brother say, that brother will be my husband. The Lord has spoken to me, that brother will be my husband. And the brother is about to marry the next two months or two. And nobody knows. Or that sister is, that sister is, the Lord said to me, that sister, the Lord said to me, that sister, and that sister is about to get married in the next two, three months. Or travel to go and meet her husband somewhere. But by the time you relate such a thing with us, as your leader or as your pastor, are you getting it now? We will interview this one and then we will quickly tell you that, no, Oga, church is placing you, look for another sister. Or if there is another sister from somewhere else, bring her in so that we can talk. Did you all understand now? That will save you from untold or unwarranted, what? Embarrassment. Did you all understand now? So that is how kingdom relationship should start or begin. Did you all understand now? So you don't jump onto that. I think that should answer the question here. Beyond what you asked, Abi, the Lord bless you. Amen. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Okay, there are up to like four questions. All right now. Today not today. Um, I will have to read this question with understanding so that we can guess. Okay. I will read it and I will now explain. Praise the Lord. Please listen to this question. Listen. Don't play with it. Okay, one, two, go. As a Christian, there is a serving God and things are not working well. Is it possible for someone to be serving God and things still not working well? Not working well, okay. I should answer that first, Abi. Glory to God. Hallelujah. Hello. Everybody look up. Muyewa. Everybody sit down, sit down, sit down. Confidence, sit down. Everybody sit down. Pastor, you two sit down one minute so that you can refresh a bit. Is it possible to be serving God and things are not working well? That is the question. Glory to God. Let's go back to our text for this discussion. Let's go back to our text. This book of the law, I've explained what the law may actually imply. Eh? Okay. Shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate day and night. Thou shalt meditate day and night. Is somebody in Joshua chapter 1 verse 8? This book, are you there? This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate day and night. That thou meditate day and night, eh? Are you there? But thou shalt meditate day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according. So if you are doing according, there is no how. God is not a failure. God doesn't say what you will not do. You shall serve the Lord your God, and He will bless your bread and water. I revert. Thank you, Holy Spirit. I pick from that question now that the person that wrote the question, the person that wrote the question was actually referring to his well-being in life. I believe I'm witnessing. Do you have a witness? He's referring to well-being in life. Are you getting general well-being in life? Let me quickly tell you this as the Spirit of the Lord is bidding me to say this to you. You see, there are faces for everything in life. There are faces for everything in life. Are you getting me now? And this will sound like a motivation to you, but it's motivation because there's a motivation in the Word of God. We don't create a motivational talk, but we receive motivation from the Word. Are you getting what I'm saying now? Pay attention to this. If you want to know what your tomorrow will be, let me give you a formula today. If you want to know what your tomorrow will be or what lies ahead of your future, I believe somebody will write this one down. You have been curious, Lord, what about my tomorrow? What about my future? What about my tomorrow? What about my future? So let me give you a simple formula. Your future, what will happen to your future and what will happen to your present tomorrow, even tomorrow morning, this step will be available for you to even listen to again, but I bet you'll need it. Glory to God. What will happen to me, Lord? You know, there's this uncertainty sometimes that at times you get a particular stage of your life, you say, okay, is this all what is life all about? What lies ahead of me? It's only when you see the way the country is going, where everybody is just living and everything is just going down, this, today, you try all your efforts, you hustle, you do this, you do that, you try to go to church early, you try to do this work, and even the church looks like a scam to you. And it seems like there's uncertainty somewhere. Glory to God. The writer of Psalms said, he said, I will look onto the hills. From where is cometh my head? Hello? From where is come what? So where the Psalmist is looking at? I lift up my eyes onto the what? Everybody, sit up, sit up everybody, sit up everybody. I lift up my eyes onto the what? Onto the hills. So the Psalmist is looking onto the economy. Psalmist is looking onto the health system. Psalmist is looking onto the government. Psalmist is looking onto every other thing around him, his educational background, his relationship, his family, his family, whatever, his this and that. But long run, you know, when you are reading it, it sounds as if maybe it just happened here. Hello? As if maybe it just begins here and ends here. I will look up, I will lift up my eyes onto the hills. It's an experience of years for the Psalmist. Experience of years. That's why he says, some trust in Thaleos. Some trust in Thaleos. Thaleos here in this presentation means that some trust in the connection of this life. Some trust in the education. Somebody has already concluded, based on the course that he went to school to study that, ah, hey, hey, it's not possible now. How will I finish as a medical scientist, medical line that will not find a job? It's not possible. How will I finish as an engineer that something, something will not be cooking? Oh! If you just get it, by the time it's running up, you'll just be reading stories of how professors keep piling up and sending resumes, CVs, to companies. And if you just realize that our professor is dragging a $30,000 job with secondary school students. That is, I will lift up my eyes to the hills. So the man has already put all his eyes on, ah, ah, if I can get master. After master, if I can get PhD. Doctor. Same thing applicable to that statement, the question the person asks, because the question is very big. Is it possible for somebody to be serving God and not having the goodness of this life and believing in uncertainty? So now let me complete what I asked you to write down. How do you know what's your tomorrow? I'm giving you a formula. I would like you to add it. Add this to it because it's looking like this, which I believe is one of the... Let me quickly give this formula for us. How do you know what your tomorrow owes? Even your present tomorrow, tomorrow morning, or your future, in the next one month, the next one day of your life, the next two days, one week of your life. Write it down. Minus your today. Okay, minus your yesterday from today. It will give you your tomorrow. Minus your yesterday from today. It will give you your tomorrow. Minus present because of future. Did you understand now? Minus your yesterday. So you are here today because yesterday night you decided that I will be in church to be blessed. Even when you are coming you decided that I am going to church. If you made up your mind that I will just go to church because if I didn't go pastor we say I didn't come to church. Meaning you are just coming, the blessing will not be at hand. Then tomorrow you will not see the results. But if yesterday you conclude, ah ah, I will be blessed in tomorrow's service. I pray Lord let the world come for me. Let my own world come. Let things turn around for me. As my man of God preached, as my saint man preached over my life, as he declared, I received answer to all my prayers. Today when I am just praying, when I am just preaching and praying, you will be blessed and you will receive answer instantly. And that answer you will receive the next tomorrow, it will come out of the day for you. Is it clear? So minus your yesterday, your decision of yesterday from what you are doing right now. So meaning if yesterday is actually wrong, you can use today to correct tomorrow. So if you are serving, serve God please. Who doesn't owe anybody? Oh oh, I serve God with all my life. With all my life, I serve God with all my life. Ah ha. Read the next question, I want you to read it more. As a son of God, a God or his opponent that is anointed. Ok. Wait wait. See, don't specialize anything about the anointing. Don't say specialize anything about it. As a child of God, as a child of God is a child of God. That's all. You are meaning, when you say that is anointed, you are just emphasizing that what you just said. You are a child of God. That means that you are born of God. Are you listening to what I am saying now? That is anointed means that God is in you. It is not the oil that is anointed. You are anointed because you are born of God. Are you getting me now? So as you are sitting down here, do you know that you are anointed? Eh? Or I should go and look for Goya? There is one inside my bag that I used for my jelly coil. I should bring it? That is not what will be. See if I put that one on you, you see, that one actually coming out from a lonely thing. That oil putting on you was actually coming out from the old testament practice. Because they have not have capacity to house the anointing. So now, the anointing is no more in a bottle. I am not against anybody using that. If that is their belief for now, ok, no problem. But that is the word of God. So to prove that this one has been separated from God, Samuel said, give me a towel of oil and pour it on him. That oil is called anointing as a symbol that God is now in you. But in this presentation, he said, the glory that you gave me father, I have given to them. They are one with us. They are now one with us. It is not oil that will determine whether they are being anointed or not. That we don't say, anointing, follow me. Anointing don't follow you again. Anointing is dwelling inside of you. You are the house that anointing is dwelling in. You are the resident that anointing is living in. That is why, when you serve, that is where you, in fact, Lord listen here, that is where you talk from, that is where you should talk from. That is where you should think from. That is where your song should come from. I am the house, I am the house, the house of the Lord. I am the place that God is dwelling. I am the house, the house of God. I am the place of His dwelling. Say nice one. I think this is where the confession now. Oh, terrible. Yes, you know, it was as she, as a son of God, that God's oil is upon. That oil of God is upon, ok fine. And God wants to use him. God wants to use him. And he has been asking for signs, but God is not showing. Ok fine. No, no, no, no, no. Pay attention. Glory to God. Because there is a light of God in this house to make everything clear. Did you all decide now? Because there is a light of God in this house to make everything clear. Listen and pay attention to this. If God has called you, are you getting now? In fact, let me put it straight to you. Let me put it straight to you. Glory to God. Let me put it straight. God has called you. Everybody, look up here. Say after me, say God has called me. God has called me. Say God has called me. God has called me. Hello, please, you are not convinced enough. Glory to God. Eh, ok maybe open this up down so that, open everything down. The thing has removed from there inside. Glory to God. Just open it down. Hallelujah. If God has called you sincerely, are you getting me now? Either there is fun or there is no fun, you enjoy it. Because that is one of the things we enjoy. If God called us to truth. Are you listening to me? And glory to God. Everybody, oh yeah, here, oh yeah, oh yeah, everybody listen to this. Listen to this, everybody. Hello. Everybody listen to this. God, God has called you. Eh, why is God not talking? If you didn't, hello, look up here. If you didn't pick up, hello, everybody look up here. If you didn't pick up, it means it is not born again. I know, if you didn't pick up, it means it is not born again. Because, so now let me explain that to you. The person is actually saying that he is looking for a sign. He knows there is anointing of God upon his life. I have already explained what the anointing is all about. Yes, anointing of God is upon you. Fine, are you listening to me now? But this is where you need to get it right and I want you to put, put it right to yourself. Are you getting what I am saying now? See, when that anointing that I defined, I explained to you the other time, when that anointing actually come upon you, are you getting it now? When you are actually anointed in that way, this is what happens to you. Are you getting it now? The moment after you have been anointed, you are expected, you are expected to continue in that way. The same way you receive Christ, you continue in it. Are you getting it now? That is what Raphael said. But this is what I am talking about. This is where I am actually going. You see, waiting for sign. Especially in this decision, you may never see one. You may never see one. You may. I didn't say you will not. I didn't say you will not. But you may never see one. And if you are waiting for sign, you may wait for long before you see one. And at the end of the day, you will end up realizing, maybe, and then the teaching will catch up with you. The growth will catch up with you. And now realize that you shouldn't have waited for such sign before you move any move. Now, what should you do if you are sensing that there is a responsibility? Because that is what you are trying to actually say. If there is a responsibility to do the work of ministry, are you listening to what I am saying now? If there is a responsibility, if it seems to you that there is more higher responsibility being bid of you to do the work of ministry, you know what you should do? Let me give you from my own perspective. I was growing in my life, just serving God normally, just doing my own things. And the Lord spoke to me in a particular stage of my life. I first of all sensed it in my spirit that the Lord is separating me for a work. I sensed it so strongly in my heart that God is calling me, He is separating me for a work. Do you know the next thing that I do? Hello? That's what should be put off. So, I sensed in every transition of my life that the Lord is bidding me to do, to come and do another task. You know what happened to me? At that time, I just keep serving God, being faithful, because I enjoyed that fellowship that came from, okay, it's bidding me to do something more. Are you listening to what I am saying now? I just keep on serving God, being sincere, serving God on my own. Nobody actually preaches to me that I should be serving God like that. I just find it loving serving God. And it gets particular stage of my life. You know what? The Lord bids me that I should continue with His ability in my life. And I misinterpret that ability for singing and dancing. I have this capacity of doing a wee. Are you getting now? What do you call it now? No, the English for a wee. Dancing. I have this capacity to dance very well. See, there is no one in Yoruba land that I cannot do. In fact, if you want me to do it, yes I want to. I will just listen a bit. I will change the dialect. I will change the dialect and do only for you from there. You do something for you. And it does not end there. I can still dance it. I have the so-called, many of those tapes, I bought the tapes, all those, even the ones that are not even Christian, I will watch them. I bought many of those, even the people, I watched them, I watched their dancing steps, I watched their this one, I watched their that one, because I misinterpret, I thought that is what the Lord is asking me, that that ability in me, that I should go ahead and be doing. You know what? While I was doing that, I was being famous. People started liking me, people started loving me, people started knowing me. The name Popo, Ake Uyashenda, everywhere. I featured in so many songs. I write some songs, I write some orikis for people. For people that are stars, even celebrities. I dance in some video clips. Even in the church that I attend, my bishop, if anything, special, so I graduated from there, started drumming in the choir, doing all those things. It gets a particular stage of... Pay attention, you are waiting for sign, but now pay attention to what I am doing. If the moment I sighted that the God is calling me, I stopped doing everything, I am waiting for sign. Are you getting it now? But sign did not... So while I keep on doing that, it gets a particular stage of my life. Because of the connection that I have, I wanted to join the workforce of Living Faith Trust, Winners. Because everybody likes me, everybody wants me, I wanted to join that workforce. And the Lord said to me, thank God for this discernment at an early stage of my life. The Lord said to me, the Lord said, I am not calling you to join this train, to join this workforce. Ah! I lost... Even somebody was telling me yesterday, he said that train to Obdaba is still in UT now. That's why they are preaching grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. He said, it's still in U. I said, I know. I know. Even tomorrow, it will still be there. Are you getting what I am saying now? So, I... The Lord said I should not join that. Because it gets a particular stage of my life. The Lord spoke to me, He said, what I am calling you for is not actually all this dancing and chanting. It's just a plus. Ah! Me that have gone far, that everybody have known. Put it on Facebook today. Put it on Google today. Like Akela said, if you print my picture, if you print there, I will dance it. Even if you don't print videos. So, where am I coming from? The Lord spoke to me yesterday and said, I am calling you to Pupete Ministry and I wanted to join LFC. And the Lord said, no. That is not what I am calling you to. Okay. Lord, at that time now, make me to now relax. I started with TNU. I will buy tapes that have to do mini task conference. Mini task conference, there I will go and attend. Tapes that have to do ministry, I will go and buy it. The books that have to do with that, I will spend my resources to that. Are you listening to what I am saying now? Back to the question that somebody asked the other time. It was from that thing that I now realized, I am not looking for relationship. Somebody that will match, that is what the Lord is calling me to do. Imagine I am in a relationship before that time. And I now tell that person, I am going to be a pastor. Eh, eh, where? Ah, no. But at that time I was not even in a relationship. But when I find one, I told that straight away. I said, I will be a pastor in your vehicle like that. She said, okay, fine, no problem. But as time goes on, gradually, the thing ends up not working. We serve each other another breakfast. But come back to your own question that, how did this now come about? Well, while I keep on serving in that place, while I keep on serving, while I keep on serving, in March, okay, no, February, was that February? Was it February? February, so what's March? February, another relationship, you know when the Puppet Ministry is not really coming up again like that, like that, it seems that that thing will be long. Because it's not this year, the Lord has told me that we have Puppet Ministry of my own. I just get a particular situation, I wanted to be discouraged and then, just let me just be serving God. Let me just be serving God. I am cutting a lot of chains short so that I can, because of our time, I met another lady, my friend know about it. I said, and when I was about to go and say, I want to go to, when the Lord spoke to me in February that the church, the assignment that I'm calling you to is about the time. When the Lord was saying about the time, I was even thinking that about the time of God is going to be another like one year or two years time. I just heard, I said, Lord, any time I'm with you, Lord, I'm with you, Lord. The next month, the Lord said, Israel, let's go, let me go and show you where the church is at the end. I just entered the car. And that relationship that we have was, the lady, we entered together, we came to Badu. Just drove in, there is this place where I was coming from school, sometimes they go down, I pass that, they could drop passengers, that bus stop, they call the place Olodo. And I just drove down with my car, with my Jeep from Lagos. I just drove down from Kenaland, bam, that Olodo there. And when I got there, ok, before I was about to leave, I was about to come alone. I came alone, when I came in, I went to that environment and I started everywhere. I get to Igbo Road, I call the bike, the bike, please I'm going to, I don't know the place or the name of that place called Olodo again. But I know the spot that that person dropped and the Holy Spirit brought that to my, like a picture to me, that this is the place that you are starting, where the banner of the church will be. I just left Lagos, I don't know the very place. When I get there, are you getting that, when I get to Badu, I get to Olodo, and I get to that Olodo, and I told the bike man, I said I am going to somewhere front, somewhere front. He said, is it Yano Church? I said no, because I know Yano Church. He said it's not Yano Church. He now asked, he said, is it after Yano Church? I said after Yano Church. He said, ah, that's the Via Alain Wofu. I said maybe. I don't know. I just claimed the bike. And the bike took me zoom. When we get to Wofu, the man said this is Wofu. I said this is nowhere. Because actually nowhere, the Lord showed me. And when I get to, he said ah, that must be Olodo. I said maybe something like that. When we get to Olodo, eh, garage, I said the Lord showed me is after Bleach. He said ah, that's Olodo garage. The moment we get there, I said yes, stop, stop, stop, this is the place. This is the place that the Lord showed me. And I dropped from the bike. They were supposed to carry us to 150 that time. The guy said, ah, it's still there now. I said, ok, I take. Go. I just started walking in. I walk into that street. That is how forever religious church starts. The next thing, I go back to, I go back, I went back to Lagos. I carry my jeep and I brought that religious, the religious that I was in. I brought that there. Ok, this is where the church will be. And the guy looked at me and said, fine. You know the way I was enjoying, the way we are living, ah. And when I just saw that, I go, here. He said, eh, ok, fine. When she told her, when she told her mother, her mother said, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh What have you been? You have not been playing talking drum again? You have not been playing your umilebata? In your umilebata again? And maybe you went to kneel down for a prayer. Daddy, the Lord called me to ministry. I said, I am not blessed. And he poured the blessing on me. That is how forever religious starts. So what am I coming up with is that eh, if God called you and waiting for sign, don't wait for sign. Keep serving God until that time comes. It is in your place of service that that calling will be matured. The calling is not, is not going to be matured and then you will be truly filled. The things that are, you see, the things that are, you need there to be equipped with in that journey will be given to you. You will be exposed to it while you are serving God. So if God called you, it is not the time to say, okay, I am going to Bible school. Don't go to Bible school. Listen to your, your set man. Pay attention and listen to him. The reason for Bible school in this nation is because people are no more responsible in church on Sunday services. The Lord was talking to me yesterday concerning all this eh, concerning this what do you call it now, eh, what do you call it now, Sunday schools. Look at the time of it. We are talking about there is no power this day. The regeneration is powerless. We are powerless. Church is much. Atrocities, church is much and atrocities are much. Why would atrocities and the church wouldn't be powerless? Why wouldn't the atrocities be much? Because then, in the days of Riyabonke, in the days of Egin, in the days of Robert, in the days of Edobeke Eon, in the morning there is first of all prayer in the morning. After that prayer there is a Sunday school. From Sunday school everybody will ask questions. Everybody will read their Bible. Everybody will pay attention. The teacher will pay attention to everybody in small, small groups. There will be most ministers in the church. And after Sunday school there will be main course. There will be main teaching. And after the main teaching, you know the next thing, everybody go home, relax more, eat in the evening. Everybody will come back. Evening mass. Everybody will come back. And when you come back again, the word of God again you teach. In fact, on Sunday morning, before you even go, after that service, there are some other groups, prayer groups, clinical counseling group again in the church. That's how everybody, that's how they equip everybody's in, to, to, to, to, and they are serving God. And power is being available for them. But, in the evening they come back again. You know the shocking part, after they get back home, after they get back home, you know the next thing, in the night, when the family are about to sleep, they will say, let us have prayer. In the morning when they wake up, Monday morning, they pray. On Tuesday there is meeting in the church. Bible study again. On Thursday there is prayer meeting. And in your house every morning there is depotion. There is a depotion in the morning, there is a depotion in the night. But today, somebody will wake up 6am, Father thank you, plus Jesus minus Satan, on his way, in the night, come for prayer meeting on the Friday, no way, ah, Daddy, you know what, Pastor, you know that my job, my work, my this, and then, you know what, on Wednesday, come for Bible study and prayer, ah, Pastor, you know a lot of things ahead of me, my transport, my this one, somebody will be living far back in one village, and then the church, the Orthodox church will be here, somebody will be living somewhere around, maybe their own village is in Mokola, they will trek inside the bush and cross the river to come for Mass and cross back, and today there is transport, somebody will be saying, ah, Pastor, you know my place is far, I can't meet up for, ah, where will we get the power? And you come for service of 2 hours, you come late by 30 minutes, and it's only 1 hour, you started looking at your watch, where will power come from now? No, no, no, no, where will the power come from? And then, you see, you see, oh God, come down, come and fill my heart, which heart? No, which heart now? The heart that does not need God's love. So, is that the last question? The last one, Abbie? Ok, I'm coming. So now, for that last question, for the question before this one, for that question of calling, don't, you know, don't wait for any sign, just continue serving God in the local church that where you are, and pay attention. See, the Bible school, can I show you, I didn't go to any special Bible school. The only so-called, that you can call Bible school that I attended, the Bible school that I can say that I attended is the Word of Faith Bible School, and then the reason for that is because that place is not like a Bible school like that. It's just that the moment you are feeling that you are not spiritualist, something is, we go back there to go and re-energize ourselves. So, it's not as a Bible school as that. You understand now? It's more like a place that where you know that, you know, I'm feeling some carnality, I'm into carnal diseases, I'm feeling that I'm doing things with the arms of the flesh. No, no, no, let me be more sensitive into the things of the spirit. That's why you go there. Did you understand now? Because I did what be, up to, up to 10 times. So, the one that I do from the beginner, BCC, LCC, LDC, LCC to LDC, whatever, I did that one up to 5 times straight. Certificates is more than that. The certificates is many. Little one can do. But that is not actually what brought about the call. But my desire for going to that was actually because I wanted to. I wanted to. I don't want my life to be dry. The moment I'm feeling a little dry like this, I go there. And that's what the church even advises. The moment you are feeling more dry, what you are hearing on Sunday or Wednesday is no more enough. Come for Bible, come for Wobi class. Word of Faith Bible Institute. It's not even called Bible school. Word of Faith Bible Institute. You go there. So, there is no official, maybe I'm going to one Bible school. Bible school is actually going out because people are lazy and they want to serve God. They want to do all the ministry. They think short course. It's becoming like a short course, short course, short course. That is what you will find in there. You will find it in the beginning. There is nothing like Bible school in the beginning. It's just fellowship. They serve God day and night. They gather day and night in the hours of this, in the hours of that. The last question. I believe that blessed that the person that was talking about the calling of God. And if that's not clear enough, please see me in the office. I will enlighten you more. See, how many do we have more? Ask her. Can an unbeliever marry a Christian sister? No. Or can a Christian brother marry an unbeliever sister? No. Wait, wait. The law for that is that you should not be equally yoke with another believer. And even if he is pretending that he is a believer, are you getting it now? That is why I told you the other time that before you can marry, are you getting it now? Make sure that you are faithful in your local church. Are you getting me now? When you are faithful in your local church and you carry your pastor along, don't do it alone. Look up here. These are the things that have to do with your pastoring with the life and calling him. Don't try to do it alone. That, no, it's my life. It's my life. It is me. It is your life. It is your life. The pastor you didn't carry along, it is that same pastor you have been calling. Pastor, he just slapped me. Oh, pastor. Or you will be saying something like, Pastor, Pastor. Are we together? Or you will be saying something like, Pastor, Pastor, he says he is carrying a load. He is going to somewhere. I don't know where he is going. Pastor, what can I do now? The same pastor that you are supposed to carry along from the beginning. And you are thinking that, Oh no, no, no, no, it's my life. At that time it will not be your life again. It will be public life. Abbey, the Lord bless you. So, no. Anything in that regard, so, probability you are not clear about that enough, please see me in the office. The Lord bless you. I think this number four has been answered. Can someone meet God and his life will remain the same? No, no, no, no. Your life cannot remain the same after you meet God. You understand? Let me quickly add something to that. See, there is no how, when you are serving God, are you listening to what I am saying now? When you are serving God, be faithful in your service to God. Because there is something called I-service. Hello? There is something called I-service. And there is something called like a transactional service. Something like, something called transactional service. You are, hello? Do you know what transactional service? God, you know what? Today they could have been sorry. Hello, look up here. Did you understand that? I heard that, I heard that proper from, from, for one of my son, for the first time one day. Eh? Eh, who? Ah, ah! Ah! Somebody, we are inviting somebody to church. That boy, we said, please invite that person to church, to come and minister here. They, ah, what? I have been ministering, I have been following him around. I was asking, I was asking, will he come? They, ah, I have been following him around. Today they could have been sorry. Eh? Eh, they are not born and we are making them go. That day, you see that day, my son, he said, eh? Oh boy, he come, well done, well done, well done. And true, true, you know what? The person came, he came. I don't even need to call. He came. Eh, eh? When I read that, I was like, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah Are you getting what I'm saying now? It's very important. Look up and listen. The moment your motive of serving God is wrong, you may never get results. The moment your motive of serving God is wrong, you may never get water. Because you are trying to, it's more like you are trying to bribe God. He is a faithful God. You can't bribe Him. He is God over your life. Don't you read James? He answers prayer all the time. Hello, when you say, ah, you must ask in faith, when you read your Bible and James says, you must ask in faith, what I taught you, does that mean that God needs faith to answer your prayer? No, God does not need faith, but you need faith to receive from the Lord. So the moment your motive is wrong, everything will be wrong. Your serving God will be wrong, your coming to the midst of the brethren will be wrong. I am coming because I don't want pastor to say I'm not there. I am coming so that people will not be asking where are you. I am coming so that God can give me car. The motive is wrong. So you work on your motive. Work on your motive. Something that delays people's answer to prayer is motive. God is saying you should ask in faith. When James says, ask in faith, faith here does not mean that God needed faith to give. What did James call him God? He said, he is a leper, he gives faith, he gives faith, he gives faith all, but can you receive? No. Is he the one I don't want to give? No, but you don't have faith to receive. So serving God is not a burden. Don't see that as a burden. Are you getting it now? So receive the training of the spirit with the joy, with the gladness of heart. That what pastor is telling me. I am not telling you so that a million people can be marching in the door. Hello Pastor Kenny. See, we are here. How many of us? Two, three people. Myself, Pastor Kenny and Pastor Demola. There was a time that it was only myself and my wife. See the story I told you about Olode that we started. I started the loon. I will stand, I just get the chair that I brought from the altar. I will put it like this. I started. I stand the loon. I started preaching. And I started preaching for the chair. I will preach for the chair. I will be telling the chair, don't you hear me? You have never seen madness. You have never seen. I will be telling the chair, man. You know in the spirit I will be saying, man. Glory to God. You see people are crazy. Someone like me, crazy girl, a crazy girl. When it comes to the things of God, we are talking. That's the kind of fuck I get. Two people are in the church. You see. Ok, now let me ask you again as we are here. How can't this church now, how many people are here? See the pastor sweating. What are you shouting pastor? Say it calm now. I will not say it calm. I will not say it calm so that it can enter your head. That is how we grow. Somebody sent me a message yesterday. I think Tolu sent me a message. He saw my status. He saw my modeling career. He saw my company was very dense and everything. He saw everything. He saw my car, my jeep. And he asked questions. You know the questions he asked me. It is unusual for Tolu to ask me that question. I just saw it. He said, and where are those things now? I said, they are there. I answered the question. I said, ok, he asked where are those things and where is the next piece? I just answered. I said, these are actually gone to prepare for what to come. That is it. That is gone. You see the last one that I posted. That is where I was in my last camp. I said, these are so in tear. Because that car went for sacrifice. And since 7 years ago till now, I will not get another one. But I trust God, in any moment from now, another one is coming. It will go. So that is serving God. So if you want to be discouraged, if anybody wants to be discouraged, I am not talking about any book, any author somewhere. I am using myself as an example for you. So imagine me living that kind of life before. I didn't use car. I have used my hands to buy up to 7 cars. Pastor, where are they now? They are gone. So that another thing can come. So that we can have better profit. I am more delighted in you being blessed than going about planting much more of such things. So if I am still ahead planting much more, how will you see the truth? I didn't say you may not be in church. How will you be exposed to this truth of gospel? So we say yes to this for that purpose. Let's run that talk. Listen to this question please. You mentioned that we should find and work on our purpose when we are in our twenties before we settle down for a relationship. Sir, we have heard of a series of people who got into a relationship as a teenager and still pursue their purpose together. They still become great together and serve God together. What can you say about it? Thank you. The answer to that question is so simple. Serving the law pays. Are you listening to what I am saying now? If you pay attention to what I said earlier, I didn't say you should never settle for a relationship at twenty. But I gave you a particular, I put some clause there that for adventure at that twenty you have to find purpose. Are you getting it now? And then the truth of the matter about those people that you are even talking about that maybe from secondary school they have been together and then years upon years after that later on they end up settling down together. You will find out that it will get to a particular stage of their life that it seems something like a stalking. They just point it to their first. They first of all pend it. Come, this is where I am going. Either one will bow for one. If the lady want to end up being a career lady, the guy may end up saying, Oh, being a career lady is not really bad for what I have here too. They sit down. So can two work together except they agree? No. So mainly they sit down, they sat down together and then they iron it out and then it can work. Did you understand? But another part of it is this. Hello, are we together? Another part of it is this. Don't forget, you see, the time that they were, ok, listen to this one. It will be very hard for them to cohabit and see enjoy their marriage. That's what the spirit of the Lord is bidding me. They cohabit. They have not actually married, but they are cohabiting. Another time when you deal with something like that or that one too, I wrote those questions down even myself. Are you getting it now? Can I cohabit as a believer since I am born again? So, but in that very regard, the truth of the matter still remains and the facts still remain that I want to submit to another according to the word of the Lord. And then let me even give you this again. The word of the Lord is the standard. No man experience should be your standard for life. Are you listening to what I am saying now? There are somebody, somebody, somebody work, some two people, they were working together and then they are now fulfilling purpose. Who tell you that they are fulfilling purpose? Are you God? No, are you God? Who tell you that they are fulfilling purpose? And I am not saying that they are not fulfilling purpose. And another thing about it is that their own life will be template for your own life too. So if it works for them that way, are you getting now? In fact, beyond the outside, what you are seeing outside or what you are hearing outside, beyond the screen saver, did you know what they are going through or did you pray to go through what they are going through too in the behind the door? So don't use another person's life and then you now say this will become the template or pattern for my own life. The word of the Lord, the counsel of the Lord must be pattern for your own life. Is that one clear now? So that somebody dated for 10 years from secondary school, that does not mean that you should go and try such. Are you getting it? Because you know what will happen to you? Part of the thing that will happen to you is that you will say that we have been dating for 2-3 years. If it is not asking for sense, it will be very hard for you to say no. You will say, ok, what will my mummy say? Or what will my daddy now say? What will people that have known us together say? So you will be parting the relationship. You will be parting the relationship. Because you will be parting the ex-husband and then as you are parting it, the time will be coming. Are you getting now? You have been parting it for 2 years together. 3 years together you are still parting it. And then the more you are parting it, the more people are knowing you. And then the more people are knowing you, the more you are happy releasing while you... Because ah, Mr. Assy said, have known us together, ah we are going to now break. And if they are now hearing from me that this thing is coming up, how is it going to sound? You keep on managing. And you know what? At the end of the day, you will do that thing until you are married. And in the marriage, the same person that you thought you have known for 10 years or 15 years, that you have been managing with, he will slap you. Boy! For the first time he will say, Debo, you slapped me and then when you are saying you slapped me and somebody just says, good morning here, you say, Debo, how was your night? Did you enjoy the breakfast? So, your standard should never be somebody. Word of God should be what? Your standard. Did you hear the standard now? Glory to God. It is in such relationship that they practice several things. Are you getting it now? The guy will be white and go and be watching unknown sex thing online. And be asking the girl, be telling the girl, you know, I don't have any other person. You are the only one. He will be practicing several nonsense things. And the girl too will be victimizing the guy. And the guy too will be crumpled down. So, you have to be very careful. There is nothing, everybody pay attention to this one. Hello, listen. Breakfast that is being served in four years of relationship is better than the breakfast that will be served on the wedding morning. So, don't receive breakfast, hello, don't receive breakfast on the first month of the wedding or one year after wedding. Hello, it is better to receive breakfast now than go and be partying. Did you remember this woman? You heard about that story, have you? Glory to God. The Lord bless you. Ask your question, bro. Yeah, question. Thank you, sir. Amen. Okay, I have my question. I will start this with you. You have one minute to do that. Ah, study. In Yoruba we believe in reincarnation, I mean, Akudaya. In incarnation? Yes, there is Akudaya. Now, in Christianity, we believe in resurrection. Okay, wait. What is the difference between the two? Okay, fine. Number one, answer to that question. It is so simple and straightforward. Is Yoruba Christian? No. Is the person that believes in resurrection, you say, Christian? Sure. So, which one is your standard? Are you a Christian? I am a Christian. Well, which one is your standard? Sure, sir. Are you a Christian? Yes, sir. So, do you not believe in Akudaya? I don't. Wait, wait. Because we deal with Yoruba outside. Wait, wait, wait. That is why you are light. Hello, listen. That is why you are light. You are meant to shine that light to them. Are you getting it now? Yes, sir. In fact, let me say this. Let me say this. Everybody look up here and listen. When we are praying, when you are praying and you are saying something like, pray in your mother's tongue, pray in your dialect. Sometimes you start in a believer's gathering, in a session of believers, you think praying in your dialect at that time, you think praying in your dialect at that time means in your Yoruba or Igbo or Awusa language. No. That is not the meaning. When we are saying, pray in your dialect, pastor, when we are saying pray in your dialect, we mean that you should pray in the spirit because you are born of the spirit. So, your nativity is not Yoruba. Oga, you are not from Ilesha. You are not from Isebu Jesha. You are not from Ilesha. You are not from Wulesha. Ketido, eh, wala is Wulesha. Eh, eh, eh, wala is Wulesha. You are not from Wulesha. Oga, you are not from there. You are actually from the Zion. There is a language in Zion. We have our native language. Our native language. Our native language is Kuu uchu ucha, ichu umitu, kelu vuvra, ikeke tutakata, egeremunu vudaka, diganuma brakatuse, entoto zuzia, ledu mra eteku brage. When we ask you to pray in your nativity language, in your dialect, that is what we are expecting you to do. In Yoruba now, the Roman monks say that they will speak. It's what they will say. Are you getting what I'm saying now? So imagine a church where 365 languages of this Nigeria is where they are. And you are asking, or you are telling them, pray in your language, pray in your dialect. You will scatter the whole church. But as a believer, our nativity language is Ika, agogo, everimi, azutakata, and elo. If your owner has always been, if your owner has always been itokoto, itokoto, you see, by the time you are hearing me say ivraotinando ebregede, you are like babies, you are picking what I am saying. You too, you will say, ivevedugedagadada. It is not something that a cloud will now come, like a smoke, and now boom. Or one white dove will now come, and you will now say, etotoregede, bodebodebodebode. No, no, it's not that one. That ability to, elo, look up, look up everybody. When you born child, the dialect that the child will grow up with, where is it coming from? It's from within us, it's from within the family. That is why when you born a baby in Igbo, you born a baby in Yorubaland, he has not started speaking, you carried him to Anambra, into one village there, and he started growing up, or he started growing up, he started hearing, keru, odinla, odia, odizo. The baby naturally will grow up speaking Igbo. Did you understand? So when you come to an atmosphere like this, you know what you do? By the time you say, ivadugede, gedugede, if all what you can say before is, etotokarakata, etotokarakata, by the time you are hearing, ifedumbe, edugede, zakalagadagada, abube, edugede, you will also, and the next time you want to pray, you will enter, idumantotote, gulugata, gudegede, gedede. Aha! So, back to your question, Oga, that thing only exists in the imagination of a culture. Did you understand now? Did you understand? And you know what? The definition we find ourselves, they have used the movie, Nollywood, to project it better. Aha! So, the Nollywood has already expanded into the art of men. Did you know one of the things that Nollywood does? Nollywood, as you must know, you must realize that the majority of things that influence people's lives are Nollywood. The way you dress, the way you talk, things you think will happen to your life, always copied from Nollywood. Did you understand? Somebody just said, zazu, and the next thing I said, zazuoto, aha! And then, you, that you are just born of God, you are not paying attention to your reality here. The next question, please close. Ok, sir. So, the next question is this. In the book of 1 Corinthians 1.20, 1.20, what is there? 1.20, the Bible is talking about Christ being the wisdom of God. Christ being the wisdom of God, ok. So now, I was trying to just, ok, if Christ is the wisdom of God, which means that is what we are able to rely on. Wait, wait. ... ... Hello, listen, listen, listen. So, you see as your mind, you know what actually play out, please listen to this. What actually play out from this question is that, he see as his mind, as heaven, as a location. And then, he see as behind his mind, somewhere that God is this somewhere separate from Jesus. Hello? And then, hello, look up and hear this. You know, if you pay attention to some teachings, that actually emphasize something like a third, or seventh dimension, that is where God dwells, with the, what do you call the other things now? Eh? With potter and the chemical like that. That will actually portray your mind as if, God is separate somewhere. In fact, what is inside of us is just like a, just like a minute shadow. Let me now, ok? Ok. Colossians make us towards the sun. ... I cannot pass that. Colossians make us towards the sun. Are you there pastor? Colossians. Chapter 2, let's read passage. Beware lest any man spoil you. Everybody look up, verse 8. Verse 8. He said, beware lest any man spoil you, through philosophy and faint disease, after the tradition of men. After the rudiment of war, of the world, and not after Christ. Not after Christ. They will tell you that there is a potter where God dwells. There is a ram where God is, which is deeper from the one that dwells inside of you. But let's see verse 9. Let's see verse 9. It says, For in him, who is in there? Christ Jesus. Born in him, two words, two words, in Jesus, either is in incarnate, ... either is in incarnate, or in the realm of the spirit right now. Are you getting now? It is in him. Look at it now. For in him dwelleth all the fullness of God's head bodily. So, all what make God, God. Listen. Bring it down some more. All what make God, God. Are you listening to me? All what make God, God. You are talking about heavens. Heavens. The third heaven. The seventh heaven. Any mention of heaven you want to talk about. All what make God, God. Is in Christ. If there is no God anywhere, again, where is the Christ? So now, where is Christ? In you. Before creation, where was Christ? Because before Christ, ... He said in the beginning, He created the heavens. You see now, we are along in the service now. He is on you. But we say that in the beginning, God created the heavens. So, where was He before creation? Where was God living? Ah, thank you. We will go back to that. Oh yeah, listen, listen, listen. Listen, I will do a quick one for that and then we will do the whole teaching on that later on. When you read your Bible in Genesis 1 verse 1, in the beginning God created heaven and the earth. He was not referring to earth, and the sky as the heavens and as this. Pay attention. That is why you will find out when you read further, you will see another creation called firmament. And this and this was created. So, the first thing that you are seeing in Genesis 1 verse 1 was referring to salvation. Act of man. And the person that wrote it was not there. Was not in creation. Have you? So, the person that wrote it was using that as a type to preach this salvation to his audience. The act of man, hello listen, audience, the act of man without, is what is called without form. It is act of man. It is act of man, act of man that is without form. So, now let me say again, let me hit you hard now. That man on the street, please listen to this, that man on the street going, that you tell, Jesus loves you, Jesus died for you, and say no. See, Jesus loves you, Jesus died for you. You know what you are doing? You are creating. That is in the beginning. God created heaven and the earth. That is the creation, that is the beginning. That man doesn't have anything, nothing, to hold the whole, he's got to hold the whole. Nothing exists. Nothing, nothing, nothing. So, as he is, just a dead man, there's nothing. So, now salvation wanted to land there. God not make that profession available. It's a word compressive speaking on his own. Did you understand? So, that you have to pay full attention, I will take it upon myself to make sure I scoot you to death. Are you getting what I'm saying now? So, for in him dwelleth all the fullness of God. In him, in Jesus, in his incarnation dwell all the fullness of God. So, when you are looking for God, there is no God. Okay, now, why is it that when he was here, he was praying to another father? That would be the question in your heart. If all the fullness of God is in him, in incarnation, so which father is he praying to? Glory to God. Let's read now. And ye are complete in him. Ah! Pastor, don't go there yet. Stand on your feet. We will continue from this next Sunday. Okay, ask the next one. How aggressive has he played you? None of you, none of you, none of you react as if there is any question before now. These are doctrinal questions. And it is very important for us to deal with it doctrinally. Glory to God. I will take my time and scoot you properly on this one too. Oh, yeah, ask that question, ask that question. There is a part of the Bible, I will take this one. There is part of the Bible. Yeah. Say it in English. I will say it in English, but it doesn't put it the exact way the Bible puts it in Europe. I will now say it in English. So it says, Ema sheba anwa la dawi. Ema sheba anwa la dawi. Shugma eba oniyo ju. Something like, don't correct the elders, but rather admonish them. So, in this context, I think if I was this morning, I was with someone on a bike coming from Okiado, and he was saying, why you left your previous church, blah blah blah. I was like, how do we, when the Bible says, Ema sheba anwa la dawi, how do we correct them that we should not correct? Now, how do we admonish them in a way that even we ourselves, we don't think? How do we admonish the elders? Yes. Okay. By showing love, by walking in love towards them. By walking in love towards them. Exactly. Wait, let me quickly say that to that. You see, what you are, let me, hello, look up here. Who is Eda? Who is supposed to be the Eda? Who is supposed to be the Eda? Who is Eda? In the Bible. Because, what you quoted now is actually from the Bible. Are you getting now? And then, Ema sheba anwa la dawi, are you getting now? Ema sheba anwa la dawi, we don't, we, Biblical Eda. Listen and pay attention to who is Eda. Hello, I've explained that to you the other time. It was that time that I called this guy Eda. Do you remember? So, I explained it, but it is normal for you to forget because you don't pay attention. So, now, who is Eda? Biblical Eda. Eda, hello, Eda is somebody that has been consistent in the word of God. So, Eda is not age. Eda is somebody that is serving God consistently and then in line according to the plan, according to the word counsel of God. Are you listening to what I'm saying now? That is Eda. Eda is not somebody with age, with grey hair. So, if you are looking for a grey hair to call somebody Eda, you'll be here. Are you listening to what I'm saying now? So, in this church, we have many Edas. We have many Edas. One of the Edas we have in this church is Pastor Kenny. One of the Edas we have in this church is Pastor Demola. Are you listening to what I'm saying now? One of the Edas we have in this church is Poyin. Are you getting what I'm saying now? We have many Edas in this church. Hello? Listen, listen. Edas are people that consistently serving God faithfully, obeying the word counsel of God. That is why I called for this Eda the other time. Did you understand? What if they deceased from doing that? They are already Edas. They need to consistence on their reality. But exalt them as a father, young men as brother, older women as mother, young women as sister with all purity. So, if you pay attention there, it's referring to your conduct in the body. Conduct. How you conduct yourself. You know, even normal... That's why I say, older man, look up here. Look up here. In the standard of this life, pay attention, which is actually, especially in the culture of Yoruba or even this part of Africa, which some of those conducts, some of those culture was coined out from the instruction of the Bible. Normal, normal, listen to me. If an Edali person offend you, you won't do that because it's an Edali person. So, you will respect the age, the old age, you will respect his age. So, now, when it's now coming to, from where they coined it out from, it is not actually the old age that is reviving. It is their loyalty and service towards the kingdom of God that they are reviving, that make them Eda. Did you understand? So, you don't allow anything to overshadow you for maybe they miss it somewhere in one way or the other and then you start to whine over them. Did you understand now? So, there are Edas in the concept of God. There are Edas in normal system of life. So, in the normal system of life, Edas, you don't just go and meet Edas, you do this, you do that, you understand? Everybody wants to go now. Chapter 13, 2 to 4, when the brethren were praying that God give them a name, like Seperate Me, Paul and Barnabas. The Bible later goes to impart it says, the church having prayed for them, sent them away. Now, I think verse 4, and being sent forth by the Holy Ghost. So, what is the difference between the sending away of the people and the sending forth of the Holy Ghost? Ok, fine. The quick one to that, listen, as I have heard the question, so, now, the question, let me rephrase the question. Should we believe in the sending of the Holy Ghost or the sending of the Edas of the church? Are you getting it now? Ok, listen now, listen now, listen now. There cannot be move of the Holy Ghost without the Edas. In fact, there cannot be move of the, in fact, the words you read about the move of the Holy Ghost, it was the Edas that wrote it down. Because it is actually a continuous thing. Sir, why I am discussing this? Ok. I have actually met people that they will be like, when you engage them in conversation, ok. It is God that said that, shoot. Yes, ok, fine, we know you are called by God, we know you do this, you do this. But, where, if you say you are a man of God, when were you a boy of God? They will ask you. When you say you are a man of God, when were you a boy of God? That is traditional, that is traditional. Like, ok, it is God that has said I should be doing it. You God born again today, the next day we are seeing you on the coop, you are already ministering, you are already singing. You see, you see, like what I have said earlier, hello, pay attention to this everybody. Like what I have said earlier and I have answered something like this before. There is nothing like a boy of God. And then every call of God upon your life always go through a test of time. Are you getting what I am saying now? When you are born again and there is an assignment for you, it cannot be instant. It can never be instant. If you are following the leading of God in truth, it will take you through a process. A process through. There is always a process. There is always a process. Either directly or indirectly, but there is always a process. Paul was called, for how many years? It was in Arabia. Are you getting it now? Odin. Laying down on the script of God, the writings of others. Are you getting now? Old testament and reading everything all through. Jesus was born. Jesus was born. Jesus came to this world. Are you getting now? With all the power of God, ability of God, with all the fullness of God. Jesus came to this world. Jesus was subjected, hello, into the tooth ledge of man for 30 years. Are you getting it now? From a child. That was not the only scripture which make you wise. Timothy. So from a child. So you know what? Everything that is actually called of God into assignment of ministry assignment or whatever, they grow into it. Are you getting what I am saying now? There might be gifts inside of you but you need to grow to it. There must be growth to it. There is nothing like a, I sleep and I start myself, I saw myself and the microphone. The interpretation of that dream is that go and be a disciple in a ministry that will train you. Not that the next day you should go and buy sound system. Because I am on promotion. Did you understand now? If you buy sound system the next day, you will invert the damages you cause. It may even cost your life yourself. Did you understand that now? So nobody, see, hello, listen to this, listen to this. And he says to me, he says Israel, did you know, truly there is this part of the, what do you call it now? The gifts, born with the gifts, but you can also, you can also grow into gifts. You may not be, hello, listen, you may not be born into the gift of assignment or prophecy or prophetic or whatever, but you can grow into it. So if you are born with the gift of prophecy or prophetic or superstition or whatever, you will still need to go through the same process with the person that learned it. Did you understand? The prophet of the old testament, there is no single one of them that didn't grow to it. Mention, there is no single one. The prophet of these days, they have said, I don't need any teacher, go and take them, majority of them, go and take majority of them. They end up fumbling. Because it is in the process that you will let, let me give you this quick one, let me give you this quick one. Did you know what? By or by the inward gift, as I am standing here, I may see a vision for this man, I may not even need to talk in tongues, as I am just seeing, I will be seeing things, it will take, listen to this one now, it will take training for me to deliver that. Imagine, I now see that the person that killed, I saw the person that killed his mother, and he is now living with the person that killed his mother, now. And the next thing, because I saw vision, are you listening to me now? First of all, I will never, the teaching, the training, will never allow me to see things in that way. Are you getting me now? But if I see vision, and I see that, the delivery will tell if I have been schooled or I have been trained or not. Imagine I now come and say, hey man, inside the church, are you getting me now? So if you are not careful, 7 days, you are gone. That thing will trouble everything in him. In fact, the moment they are asking, stand up everybody, he will carry his Bible, he will go and look for cutlass, and may end up killing that person. And when they are asking, where did you get that from? He says, pastor told me. And when I take the knife like this, the woman confess, with the law here that one, you will end up ending your life in where? In the prison. And when you get to the prison, the sense you didn't have, outside, you will have it in correctional center. Did you understand that now? You ask the question, is it clear now? It is not clear? You will, later, because when I am answering it, you didn't pay attention. Glory to God. Hallelujah. So I believe there is no more questions for today. Probably this will be for pastor explain this again. Reverend, please explain this again, another time. Glory to God. We have a lot of things to learn. Glory to God. Go ahead, prophesy in one minute.
