The enlightened amid fire burns My heart is cultured to work
I have in me the burning fire Oh, a sound of great things
I have in me the burning fire
We want to learn hindrances to faith. Hallelujah.
Alright, Matthew 17. I think Matthew 17 has been so much abused.
Matthew 17 verse 1. You should know. Verse 1.
Hey, Matthew 17, what? That's 20. I'm going to get you to write your exams after that.
So that you have Bible study groups. Hallelujah. So that you can become Christians.
Alright, let's start from verse 14. I have a lot of things to tell you. But the time will not permit me.
Verse 14. And when they came to the crowd, a man came up to him and kneeling down before him said, Lord have mercy on my son.
For he is an epileptic and he suffers terribly.
I'm reading from ESU. He suffers terribly. For often he falls into the fire and often into the water.
And I brought him to your disciples and they could not heal him. Now underline the word they could not heal him.
They could not heal him. Blessed Jesus. I feel the anointing to teach this morning. Hallelujah.
When I got there I just felt it. Oh, Lord.
Okay. And I brought him to your disciples and they could not heal him. Underline the phrase. They could not heal him.
And Jesus answered, O faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you?
How long am I to bear with you? Bring him here to me. Tell somebody bring him here to me.
See, when you're learning about, when you're learning the word of God and you see some of the statements from Jesus,
some of these statements from Jesus, you have to learn them. Hallelujah. Like you have to learn them.
For example, bringing onto me. It's a powerful statement. Hallelujah.
I'm not trying to make a doctrine out of it, but anytime I read it and I get it, I get here, I'm so excited.
Think about it. Say, bring him here onto me. Bring him. Hallelujah.
So like we'll say, where is Dave? Dave, come here. Come, come, come, come. You know, we learned it from here. Around to me.
Hallelujah. So somebody said, you told me to bring him here onto me.
Okay. Verse what? 18. And Jesus rebuked the demon and he came out of him and the boy was healed instantly.
Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, why could we not heal? Why could we not cast it out?
So why could we not cast the demon out? What was the problem? What did we do wrong? Where did we go wrong?
What is the issue? Because we've seen you cast out demons. You've given us sort of authority to cast out demons.
And we've seen some testimonies, one or two testimonies from here, from there. But this particular one, we couldn't do it.
So what's the problem? I mean, if Jesus is here, he will be getting this question almost every day.
Hallelujah. Just imagine, you also have that question. Don't you have that question?
You ask, okay, so why did this one not get healed? I remember when we went to Suhum's Thins Impact.
I believe you are planning to have it again this year. Okay. So when we went there, I think Ezra or somebody brought a lady who was,
I was about to say dumb in one eye, who was blind in one eye.
I mean, we prayed for her, prayed for her, prayed for her. And after I said, my sister, go. Later we'll find out.
I mean, if Jesus was the one who sent me and he's here, I would have come to say, Master, what's the problem?
Hallelujah. But anyways, we keep on learning. And it's not my fault. Okay. So why could we not cast it out?
Jesus said to them, because of your unbelief. Now, he says little faith.
That means little faith is unbelief. Now, actually in the Greek here, it's not really unbelief.
It actually talks about, I've forgotten the Greek word, but I think it's only post something.
Something, something. Those of you who are using my song, you can check it out. I made a study on it, but I've forgotten the word.
Now, so the word there, little faith, actually talks about little occurrences of faith or little amount of faith.
Now, Jesus says, if you have faith as a seed, your faith as a mustard seed, you'll see to this mountain, move and it'll move.
Right? So it tells you this little faith here is not talking about little faith.
All right. It's talking about small occurrences of faith, like not being able.
The problem of the people was that they were not able to persistently continue. All right.
So that's what Jesus is talking about. Jesus is saying that the problem is you could not persistently continue.
Hallelujah. Come on, are you all here with me? You could not persistently continue.
So that was the problem. Okay.
Then Jesus said, because of your little faith, for truly I say to you, if you have faith, like a grain of mustard seed, you see that?
So you can't see it is little as a little because mustard seed faith is a little faith.
Hallelujah. Okay. So you will see to this mountain, move from here, then to there, and it will move and nothing will be impossible to you.
Hallelujah.
So what are the hindrances of faith? What do I mean by hindrances of faith?
The things that we do, the things that we engage in or the things that do not make us to be able to express our faith.
Hallelujah. For example,
this is a meeting. There's a healing meeting or there's a meeting, you know, always I'll use healing.
Because that's where my dising is. Hallelujah.
Yes. Now, so we have this meeting that we are praying for the sake and you brought in a lot of sick people.
Then we pray for them and you see that majority of them get healed or some of them get healed.
And then the rest are not able to be healed. They all had the same thing.
They were all prayed to, they were all prayed for by the same pastor.
And they were all in the same building and they were all listening to the same message.
So why is it that some will get healed and some will not get healed? Praise the name of the Lord.
Now, sometimes people go for programs. I remember when we went for Night of Bless.
Before the program started in the around, I mean from 9 a.m.
So program was supposed to start at 9 p.m. I got there at 2 a.m.
So 2 a.m. because I couldn't sleep. Hallelujah.
Yeah. And I think that program was on Friday.
It was a Friday, I think. So.
Thursday, that was slipping into the Friday. I said, OK, I'll go for lectures.
And then after lectures, I will go. Now, here I am seeing, I think from Wednesday or so,
seeing Pastor Chris's picture at the airport. And every day I'm looking at it.
Every day I'm looking at it and I'm screaming. I'm looking at it.
I remember that it came on Wednesday. So Thursday, as our lectures, I just, we're just learning.
Learning binary codes and stuff like that.
Then I was just looking at my phone like that. Hey, let me put it in and look at me like that.
So I couldn't sleep. As I go after lectures, I'll go.
I slept around one. No, I slept around 11.
I thought I thought made the name made the treatment. You know.
And then I opened my eyes. It was still living something.
All right. Did I slept again? I opened my eyes to have some.
I said, Charlie, Charlie, this will not help anybody. Let me just buff.
So by two hours, so I saw almost everything that happened.
And before the service happened, people were being healed.
Nobody was praying for anybody. I mean, people were in the wheelchairs and all of that.
You'll be there and somebody will just walk out of the wheelchair. You know.
So people who say men of God plan, they plan with the people.
How can you plan with this one? So you plan with the people when you come at nine thirty.
Get up and lift your wheelchair. No, that's real healing.
The people get up and then there'll be a shout. Then other people will just get up as well.
There was somebody was closer to where I was. The person saw.
Then we ask you what is it to be a surrogate.
So we are surrogate. And then the person started.
The person started adjusting. It was a female adjusting herself like that.
Adjusting herself like that. But then you know, yeah, then there's somebody got healed in front of her.
Then out of I don't know whether she wanted to look at it or that she also jumped.
Like she she lived like that and also stood and started walking.
Then they called for the people who take the testimonies.
Yes. And it continued, continued, continued.
Finally, in the evening program has started.
During praises, all of that people are still getting healed. It was just happening like that.
Series of healings. Then Pastor Chris himself came.
And the healings. Let me say quadrupled.
But do you know that after the whole thing, some people were still healed back home.
It means they were not healed. The people could not get healed.
Now, that is not the problem of God.
You can't blame God that God healed some people and God didn't heal some people.
Who is to be blamed?
God.
The one who is sick.
So Jesus says the reason why this particular one could not happen is because of the littleness of your faith or the small application of faith.
You were not fully committing yourself to what you are supposed to do.
Now it tells us that one of the ways that our faith get healed.
One of the ways that our faith is not practicalized is small amount of application of faith.
Hallelujah.
This is very very important.
Now it means that you don't use part of faith to get results.
Now if you are going faith, then you go all out with faith.
Praise the name of the Lord.
Am I making sense somebody?
So Jesus says it's because of the littleness of your faith, the smallness of your faith.
Not small as in a whole small, but you have the faith, but you apply little.
Praise the name of the Lord. That's what the Lord is saying.
The small occurrence or the small application of your faith.
See there are people who cannot go all out. They can't go all out.
Today they are with the Lord, tomorrow they are not with the Lord.
Today they are happy about Jesus, tomorrow they are not happy about Jesus.
Today they want to go all out for Jesus. Tomorrow is like something which is there.
You know when that happens you cannot have your faith come into fruition.
Because faith is not just consistent, faith is also persistence.
Hallelujah. Faith is persistence.
Now when you read Luke chapter 18, the Bible says Jesus gave a parable and he said that the parable,
the meaning of the parable was that men should pray always and not faint.
Alright?
Luke 18, then the Bible talks about a widow who always will go to a judge to avenge her or her enemies.
Alright?
Now when she goes there, the judge said no, no, I can't. I mean, I, no.
The Bible actually calls the judge a wicked judge.
I know a lot of people preach that to say that is God.
But that would be very useless to say it's God. It's not God.
You know? God is not a wicked judge.
So he goes to the wicked judge and the wicked judge will not consent.
And the Bible says she goes again and she goes again and she goes again and she goes again.
Teaching persistence.
Hallelujah.
Then at the end Jesus asks the question, he says if the son of man should come,
will he find such faith on the earth?
So what was the faith?
The persistence of the woman.
That this is what I am doing and nothing is going to change my mind from it.
Hallelujah.
This is what I am doing and nothing is going to change my mind from it.
I have made up my mind that I am going all out with God on this matter
and nothing is going to change my mind from it.
See that kind of, I'll come there, I'll come to wavering,
that kind of not putting your whole self, alright?
That thing of not putting your whole self is dangerous and it is detrimental to your spiritual growth.
Praise the name of the Lord.
I will say that again.
That thing that today you are, tomorrow you are not, today you are, tomorrow you are not.
You see there are people when they come in the mood, my goodness.
Not even the devil can stop them.
But when they get out of mood, not even God can persuade them.
So like they are extremist, when they want to do it they go to the extreme.
When they don't want to do it, you, not even an articulator can move them.
That is dangerous to your spiritual life.
You cannot walk in faith.
Hallelujah.
You are going to be in the church for many years and you will still be the same.
Praise the name of the Lord.
When you continue to be using small amount of faith, alright?
Small amount of faith would mean that you have much and then you used a little.
Alright, so that is the word Jesus used there.
For example, when the people, you know the story about the widow's mind.
People went to give their offering and they were giving big, big money.
And then the widow came and gave her last coin.
And Jesus says the biggest offering was the widow's.
Because the rest they had plenty and it was out of the plenty they were giving.
But this widow had small but was giving out of their all.
I mean as in she was giving their all.
This is exactly what Jesus is talking about.
See naturally there are people who are gifted.
Alright? There are people who are gifted.
How many of you have seen people gifted before?
There are people who are gifted and there are people who are not so much gifted.
I saw, there was a video I placed on my status.
There was this guy who doesn't have hand.
He doesn't have hand.
And he was playing drums at church.
I still have the video, maybe I'll put it on my status so you can see.
Chris, can you play the drums without your hand?
Naturally you say no.
So we say in this regard this guy is not gifted at all.
The little that he has which is two legs, he's using the two legs to play drums.
Another one I posted on my status was a pastor, a drummer, a keyboardist at the same time.
I don't know maybe the drummer chose not to come to church and the keyboardist also chose not to come to church.
So he combined the three.
And the guy was playing drums and at the same time playing keyboard with a cleric.
But you can also see somebody who even has the gift and not just the gift but is anointed to minister that gift and will not be serious.
If that is your case, you will one day come back and ask Jesus, why couldn't I?
Are we together?
Yes, because there are people, the last time I think, I don't know how many years ago, but I was teaching something and I said that.
I went to this village to preach years ago.
And that is one of the things that also cemented my love for Jesus.
I had gone there at least not looking so good but looking good with a borrowed perfume and all of that.
So at least I was the man welcoming to preach.
Then I saw this woman who had come to church with a tattered chaloti.
And what the woman was wearing, like we'll call it rags.
And they were doing their praises with bongbu, you know bongbu, no keyboard, no all these things.
And the woman had walked like an hour and a half to come for the service, came for the service and praises was going on.
I had not even looked at what she was wearing.
And a hair bishi is carrying.
Now I don't know who advised her to go for that wig and I don't know where he got away from.
Then they were just dancing like that and their dancing was quite fast.
So like they were going, someone ask somebody who is coming to preach, you are in front.
So I looked at them and I saw, hey.
And she was excited waving a supposed white tangerine that had become brown, waving it to the Lord.
Waving it and I'm looking at this lady who is leading praises and worship.
With one child standing in between her leg has locked the child and one at her back because they are disturbing.
It has locked like that. No, no Michael, no nothing.
Oh, Baba, oh, no.
And praising God.
Praising God.
Now as I look at them and their joy and they are pastor.
I mean they are pastor that has packed one bicycle somewhere.
Has also come from a very, very far distance.
Packed this thing there and the pastor has come, packed chairs and all of that.
And what the pastor is wearing to come and preach the very good word of God.
But they are joy.
Their joy and their allness to the service of God was worth emulating.
Let me tell you what. It is not people who are in big churches that were enjoying hearing.
No.
Because you see,
there are people who don't have so much gift.
It even looks like they are not gifted at all.
But they serve God with their all.
There are people who are gifted.
They can do this, they can do this, they can do this, they can do this.
But they will not do it.
Some of them they will do little.
Alright, they don't come out with their best, they will do little.
And the whole lot resides in them.
And you can be assured that you will come back and ask God one day,
why could I not?
It may not be a demon, but why could I not whatever?
Like somebody who is gifted so much, so much.
See there are some of you, if you sit down,
that you want to work on the gift of God on your life,
and submit it to the local church and serve faithfully,
you will be amazed at the results that will come out of it.
Yeah.
You will be shocked that there is somebody here.
Maybe you know how to do something, but we don't even know here in this church.
You've kept it to yourself.
You know when you come to church you dance, you sing.
So that is a hindrance to your faith.
Using small amount of faith,
whereas you have a lot inside you.
Alright, using a little percentage of faith.
So that was the problem with the disciples, Jesus says,
your problem was that you used a little percentage of faith.
So now I told you to underline,
I have a lot of spirits today.
I told you to underline, they could not.
And when the disciples came, what did they say?
Why could we not?
The man did not say, why?
The man did not say, but they didn't.
The man didn't say, I brought my son so that he will be healed to your disciples,
but they didn't.
The man said they couldn't.
Now, the couldn't means they did something, they tried.
It means that it is not all actions that are coming out of full self.
Let's take for example, you can be singing, Mr Noah can be singing,
and not be singing his best.
Why? Looking at his totality in that craft.
Please are we together?
You coming to me, Mr Noah coming to me,
and saying that I have power in singing,
but today when I sang, they said they didn't get healed.
So why? What's the problem?
Then I'm going to tell him that it is because you didn't sing in your full capacity.
Hallelujah.
So the full capacity is underused. Praise the Lord.
So they could have done much, but they could not, or they did not.
Do you know that somebody can be acting, somebody can be doing something,
because he's told to do, and he will just do it, and he will not do it with his all.
And God is telling, Jesus is telling you that cannot produce results.
This is very serious. You see, getting your faith to work does not depend on God.
God will not, God cannot make your faith work than you want to make it work.
You can be praying and not be praying out of your full self.
You can be ministering and not be ministering out of your full self.
You can be serving and not be serving out of your full self.
And when that happens, the Bible says that you will not achieve the targeted results.
Praise the name of the Lord.
It's very important.
So you are gifted.
There are things you know how to do. You do it easily.
But maybe one way or the other, you will do it, but you will not do it well.
The Bible says that when you do that, it is an impediment on your own faith.
Praise God.
It's an impediment on your own faith.
When I was studying around these things, around faith, I asked the question.
I mean, it's like, Lord, you've given us everything.
So why do we under produce?
Hallelujah. Like, why do we under produce?
Because a lot of things we are looking for God to do for us.
He's already done it and he's expected us to work.
But no, not us.
Why could we not?
And Jesus says it's because of the little occurrence of your faith.
You brought out little.
Let me give you an example.
So we went for these missions.
And we were supposed to pray for somebody who was sick.
And then I think it was Agonassafo.
Then while we were praying, this was somebody who was deaf and dumb.
Whilst we were praying, we were involved in the prayer.
And we were tired because the person was not getting healed.
And then daddy came around.
So when he came around, you know, normally he would stay in one corner and just be watching you.
And we were fasting.
We had fasted the last day or something.
So we were very hungry.
In one, I don't know whether it was the Pentacles or Methodist Church.
Then he came and he called a couple of the brothers.
Then he said, this boy has to be healed.
You don't heal him today, you are not coming out.
Healing.
Nobody is stepping out.
Healing.
Because I've seen that he has to be healed.
Standing there, he has to be healed.
Everybody joined again.
The man went to room, room, room, room, room, came back.
And we're still there.
We'll just stand there and just do like this.
Then he'll go back.
This man can simply come and put his hand on this boy's tongue.
Put it inside his ear.
Clear everything.
Let's go eat so we can serve God in the evening.
He didn't mind anybody.
Room about, room about, room about, room about, room about.
We started the prayer.
I've forgotten the time, but it was very long.
We started the prayer maybe around one or two.
Because it was morning session that we brought the people for Holy Ghost service.
So we should close around 12 to go and sleep a little.
Then we'll go in.
We were inside the room by 4.35.
It was getting dark.
We were still praying.
And then suddenly, he came around.
Then he stopped the prayer.
This time with laughter on his face.
And I wonder what does this man see?
Okay, maybe he's coming to do.
Then just say somebody test him.
He's been healed.
That's why I'm coming.
He's healed.
Then somebody stands at the back of the guy.
Then the guy does.
The person goes back.
The guy does.
The guy had never talked.
So, I mean, he doesn't know how to talk.
So, one, two, three.
And we're thinking, how about we bow?
But you see, if we had stopped the prayer, the first one hour, the guy would not have been healed.
If we had stopped the prayer the first two hours, the guy wouldn't have been healed.
Sometimes there are problems that require persistence.
You know what I'm talking about?
Those days that they'll be having crusade, then all the sick people that are not healed, they will repack them again.
I don't know how many of you have joined serious churches and serious meetings like that.
They will repack them again.
Then now the prayer warriors and all those people will now go and meet them separately.
And they can spend like five hours on them praying.
As they keep on praying, then the testimonies will be happening.
They'll see that they'll not be healed that day.
They will make sure that the next day they will go and bring it.
Some of them, they even keep them there.
The prayer will continue.
By the time we are done, we'll say that one week we'll say, they will clear out all the sick people.
But you see, like we said, right now I pray for you.
I've watched Pastor Chris say, and you are gone.
So if I use the drip and you are not gone, alright, you are the one who is sick.
Next.
But that is not right.
It means you want to heal the person, but you are not going all out.
Can you stay a little longer to pray with the person?
All together?
Because Jesus told us, persistence is what breaks resistance.
The woman kept on coming, kept on coming, kept on coming.
And then the man said, you know what?
It's fine. I will.
We are too quick to finish.
Hallelujah.
Can I say that again?
We are too quick to finish.
Right now we want to microwave everything.
We want everything fast, fast.
You come to church, pastor is talking three hours, you just want to go home.
But you can be on phone for nine hours.
We want everything like solid, solid, solid.
You come to church, we are praying for three hours after service, you are hungry.
You know?
So we want everything like quick, quick, quick, quick, quick, quick.
There is such a thing as going all out.
No, like look at what he said.
He said that if this boy is not healed today, you are not coming out.
You will not come out.
I think there was a particular incident like that.
Winnipeg II.
Okay, after Winnipeg I was in the conference.
Missions.
Okay, I was in the Winnipeg mission.
One at the Kufuria that we went.
The healing was massive.
There is this particular woman who is not getting healed.
After the prayer, so that the prayer nothing happens, alright.
After eight, then you call some brothers.
Say make sure you heal.
Maybe the healing has to come from your hand.
This woman is there.
Maybe, maybe, I think you have to shoot the eye or something.
Mama can you see?
I said no.
I said, you know, the sick people, there is a way they will make you, they will make you want to, will lay back more.
I said, I said, Mama, what are you feeling?
Can you see?
He said no.
But I said, baby, if you mean it so.
One of the brothers.
But the woman got healed.
So think about the one who left to go and sleep.
If, you know, with what we are studying right now, he would have come to ask Jesus, why could we not?
So you can do something and not do it out of a full heart.
Are we together?
Yes, you can do something and you not do it out of a full heart.
And when that happens, you cannot get the required results.
The littleness of it.
This is not the same as unbelief.
All right.
This is not the same as unbelief.
This one, most often than not, King James translated it wrongly.
All right.
The the Greek word for unbelief, real unbelief is a piece here, a piece here.
All right.
Or a piece this a piece this.
So the aid negates the paces.
So unbelief, proper unbelief is the negation of faith.
All right.
But this one, let's let me get it out here.
I can find it for you just in a TV.
Say my feet is working.
One more time.
My feet is working.
Oh, come on.
Now, I really Matthew one.
Matthew chapter number 17.
I should be able to get this.
Verse one.
Okay, I think I found it.
The way you are laughing.
Only go Pistian.
Now let me spell it for you.
Only go.
Are you enjoying this thing.
Okay.
Only go Pistons.
Only go Pistons, only go Pistons.
So legal Pistons.
Say only go Pistons.
All right.
So the helps word studies, it means few occurrences or applications of faith.
All right.
So few applications of faith.
What does it mean of legal Pistons.
So we have only go Pistons Christians.
Who are only go Pistons Christians.
They apply little of their faith.
Actually, are you legal Pistons.
Hallelujah.
So it is like to to to apply so they will apply the fatal.
They will apply, but they will apply with very few.
So if they have faith like 70 percent, they are going to use three percent.
You see, so faith that is not fully used does not get results.
Hallelujah.
Faith that is not fully used doesn't get results.
Now, what do I mean by faith that is not fully used.
Faith practically, practically is conviction.
Faith is conviction.
You know what conviction is.
To be persuaded.
So when you claim that you have faith, let's say, for example, you you you have conviction that I'm anointed or you don't have the conviction.
You don't have conviction.
You have conviction that there's something on me that you can't define.
OK.
You have conviction that.
When we come here, we learn the word of God.
Is that not it?
The pure word of God.
No adulteration.
Good.
You have the conviction that.
This church has a global assignment.
Or you don't have that conviction.
You have that conviction.
What then will keep you away from serving with your all?
So after claiming you have the conviction and you have the conviction we are going somewhere and you are not part of the people who serve fully.
You serve us and when you want to or as and when you are in the mood.
You are an oligopestos person.
It means that you have the conviction you have.
But you have decided that you are waiting for the big crowd to serve in a grannyside and trust me, that big crowd, it will not happen when you are there.
It will happen when the devil has successfully gotten you out of the way.
Because it was when the disciples was gotten out of the way that they were able to meet the Lord.
Don't be somebody who serves with reservations.
Hallelujah.
I mean I have been able to do that well with you.
I train you very well that nobody serves and nobody is going to pay somebody from anywhere.
So that's fine.
None of you who ever do anything in church with money in mind.
The next stage is that you will serve fully or you will practicalize your faith fully.
Think about it.
You are going to cast out a demon and you applied your faith.
How?
You went to the person.
In the name of Jesus I command you, come out.
Come out.
And the demon is saying, push him somewhere.
Are you ready to out?
If you are, come on out.
It also means, you know somebody who doesn't fully does something and bring it to completion.
So the number one hindrance to our faith is the small application of our faith.
Glory to God.
Now if we ask a question, why does the faith of people not work?
You have one of the answers, right?
And what is that?
Small application of faith.
Little application of faith.
When that happens, you can be sure you will not get the intended results.
Small application of faith will cause you to do something but you will not get results.
Can I say that again?
Small application of faith will cause you to do something.
People may even applaud because I believe that when the disciples were praying,
there were people there looking at them and they would be like, wow, oh yeah,
the child is with the disciples.
As for Jesus' disciples, they are amazing.
They are powerful.
So you will be doing things but the end result is that it will fail.
Why?
Because you are using small faith.
You are applying small faith to what you are supposed to do.
You must be able to go all out for what you so believe in.
Praise the name of the Lord.
Okay.
So that is, you know, in the Old Testament, the Bible speaks about people whose heart,
alright, was not, or someone whose heart was not right with God.
Somebody can be in church.
Somebody can be doing all kinds of things.
But the person within him knows that I can do better.
Hallelujah.
Let's take for example, if you are to be the pastor of this commission,
if you are to be the head pastor of Gospel Waves,
would you pray the same way you are praying?
The way you are doing evangelism, is that how you will be doing it?
The way you fast, is that how you will be fasting?
You know why you do that?
Because it is not in your plans that you can even become a pastor.
It is not in your plans you want to become like me.
Praise the name of the Lord.
Think about it, when we say, alright, so you go and do,
we may tell Dave, okay, go and do things in part,
then with tears he is going and he is praying.
After things in part, he is waiting for the next things in part to invest prayer.
Or maybe, who again?
You are supposed to go and handle, what is the name of the place again?
Aparicro.
Then it casata.
Tears are flowing.
Why?
Because today you are now in the forefront.
It is not going to work.
The Bible says, if you are not faithful in that which God has given to someone,
how can you, how can God give you your own?
You understand?
We are here.
We are all supposed to cry.
When we are crying, you are not crying.
Or even if you are crying, small time, your tears will finish.
But when we told you to go and do a paricro, or go and do things in part,
your tears were unending.
So people can act, but the act will not be coming from completeness.
Hallelujah.
They can act, the act will not be coming from completeness.
And that is a hindrance to faith.
A big hindrance to faith.
That the more you behave that way, the more you lock up your faith.
Look at somebody who has five cities and cannot share.
Give and give two cities to somebody, or even three cities.
Now the person thinks I have five cities, the match I can give you is a title of five cities,
which is fifty-first place.
And the person could do more.
Then he decides that, no, this is what I will do.
There cannot be, you see, the Word of God cannot be cheated.
You can't cheat God's Word.
This is one of the things I call the principles of faith.
Going all out on something that you believe is faith.
Like somebody who believes in Jesus and the person can't go all out for Jesus.
You say you have faith in Jesus, and you're born again, you have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, my very Lord.
You believe in him, and you have a problem talking to people about him.
Some people even try.
You see, madam, please.
He is not, you can't come and kill anybody in this place.
Are you ready?
When we went, I didn't get anything, so all my souls were stubborn.
So next Monday we'll see what we can do.
Maybe with a little aggression and seriousness, he or she could have saved a soul.
Hallelujah. But so lazy.
Lazy.
There are people who prefer sleep above labor.
People who prefer eating above labor.
People who prefer chatting with friends above labor.
People who prefer social media above labor.
You know, you are to come to church at eight.
Then around four, you are still chatting.
What do you want to prove?
Hallelujah.
Yeah.
So it is this all outedness that causes faith to work.
I want to say that again.
It is all outedness.
Now in this church you are really learning all kinds of grammar.
It is all outedness that brings result to our faith.
Praise the name of the Lord.
Alright, so that's the first thing.
Number two, unbelief.
Now can somebody have faith and still have unbelief?
It depends on the faith you are talking about, but our belief is yes.
Hallelujah.
What is unbelief?
That's good Romans chapter three.
Can you imagine, we have a few minutes more.
Wow.
I said Romans one.
Romans 11, Romans three.
Okay, verse three.
If you are not there, say it for me.
Okay, I love you. Read that. One, two, go.
Okay.
So that is apostille.
A-P-I-S-T-E-O.
Apostille.
It actually talks about refusal to be persuaded by God.
It talks about refusal to be persuaded by God.
We can spend like ten years on this one alone.
I will not say can we try it because we will not try it.
But listen, refusal to what?
To be persuaded because apostille or pastis is divine persuasion.
So a apostille is the negation of divine persuasion.
One who cannot be persuaded by God.
Wow, how will you get to that level?
It means that there are people who, for example, people who don't believe in Jesus.
Alright?
And that is a proper application there in Romans 11, verse three.
He says what if some did not believe?
It means that what if some refused to be convinced by God?
I keep on telling you, God does not take anybody to hell.
God would do his best.
But sometimes men overpower God.
Do you know man can overpower God?
Yeah, man can overpower God.
But some say, oh, but God is all powerful.
Those of you who were not here yesterday, you missed.
Man can overpower, man can make God powerless.
Powerless in his life, not in God's own life.
Hallelujah.
Because you can decide that you don't want God to persuade you.
And God cannot persuade you.
It's not God who leaves you that, okay, no problem, let me.
God cannot persuade you.
God will look at you and say, this guy is very strong.
I'm very weak when it comes to this guy.
You can't persuade him or he cannot be persuaded.
So unbelief is a hindrance to faith.
See, faith is persuasion, unbelief is lack of persuasion.
What does that mean?
So let's take for example, if somebody said to, or maybe we ask the person,
do you believe you can be healed?
And the person says no.
Do you know what it means?
God cannot heal me.
I cannot be persuaded by God that he can heal me.
And that is the life of many people at the word of God.
When the word of God comes to them, they don't believe the word.
And you see, if you take that poster, the word of God cannot work in your life.
Faith cannot work in your life.
That is like a very big hindrance to faith.
Praise God.
Say, I don't entertain unbelief.
Like you may say, I don't entertain unbelief.
I don't entertain unbelief.
So if you entertain unbelief, what you're doing is that you are negating divine convictions.
I mean, I wish I had a lot of time to do this thing.
You are negating divine convictions.
If you keep yourself around friends that sponsor unbelief,
you are having friends that are helping you to tell yourself that God is powerless in your life.
If you keep giving your minds to things that will sponsor unbelief in your life,
it means that... look at what the man said.
The man said... Jesus says, do you believe?
The man says, I believe. Help my unbelief.
I don't know if we read that.
Let's go to Matthew 17 again.
I think let's read it from a different...
Let's go to Luke.
See, my faith is working.
Mark 9.
Alright, are we there?
Mark 9, 24.
Let's start from 23. Jesus said unto him,
If you can believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
Think about it.
Jesus said, if you can believe, if you can get faith,
if you can be nursed, if you can get faith to grow,
if you can feed on your faith, if you can become a faith man,
all things are possible.
Hallelujah.
Say, I'm going to be a faith man all the days of my life.
Like you say, I'm going to be a faith man all the days of my life.
Jesus talks about the possibilities of faith.
So he says that if you can believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
It means that to him that does not believe.
All things are impossible.
We are going to start a church here.
I don't think we can.
We are going to buy this.
I don't think we can.
We are going to do this.
I don't think we can.
We want to go and I don't think we can.
I don't think we can.
It means that these are people who don't see possibilities in anything.
So say, you cannot be working and still be a pastor.
I don't think we can. You don't think we can.
All things are possible to him that believe it. It means that if you can get the thing into your faith system, it will be possible.
Master Kabaya. I was expecting some tongues right there.
There is nothing that is impossible to the man that believes.
This thing was said by Jesus.
What was impossible to Jesus?
If Jesus is telling you to him that believe it, all things are possible. He is a living proof of what he's talking about.
What was impossible to Jesus?
Can you name one thing?
Nothing, right? Nothing.
Because he was the son of God. You know Jesus was so powerful. No, he says that his secret was faith.
Nothing will be equal by impossible to the man who believes.
That's like a blank check.
You can't have faith and be scared of your future. You can't have faith and be scared of tomorrow.
You cannot have faith and be harboring impossibilities in your head.
To the man that believes, all things are possible.
Caste. Say, all things are possible.
Do you want to have people in this church right now? Say, all things are possible.
Don't just say, you see, don't, when we say faith, don't just look at somebody. It's a mountain. You have to talk to a mountain.
Something has to be before you. Don't just, all things are possible.
Look at something in your life, around your life and shout it, all things are possible.
All things are possible. All things are possible.
I so believe. I so believe.
One more time. All things are possible.
All things are possible.
See, Jesus is saying all things are done-able. All things can be done.
It does not matter if you can only believe all things.
He says to the one who believes, all things are possible.
There is no impossibility case to blackhand this.
As a man of God, there is nothing that will stand before me and I'm going to call it impossible.
All things are possible because I am a believing man.
I am a believing man. All things are possible.
Do I have people in this church at all?
Maybe you don't have anything you are looking at.
But if you are really looking at something, shout it. Don't say shout it. All things are possible.
Come on, all things are possible. All things are possible.
We will not answer like Ezekiel. When God asks, can dry bones live?
We say, Lord, you know. No. When the Lord asks us, can these dry bones live?
We will tell the Lord, all things are possible.
Can nations be saved? All things are possible. All things are possible.
Can the dead be raised by a man who has seen his family members die over the years?
All things are possible. All things can a man heal the sick by shatter.
All things are possible. I believe this thing.
Say it, all things are possible. Come on, say it, all things are possible.
It does not matter where I come from. My possibility in all things is my faith.
Is my belief, is my faith, is my divine convictions.
Say I'm a man of possibilities. Come on, lift your hand up.
I don't know some of you, you are not here in this church today, but shout it, I'm a man of possibilities.
Say I will get to wherever the Lord has destined for me to get to.
Nothing will stop me. There shall not be any impossibility.
Say I'm a man of faith. All things are possible. All things are possible.
All things are possible. All things are possible. All things are possible.
All things are possible
If all things are possible
If I I love this thing from Jesus, all things, all things.
believe that the lord believes
that all things are possible. I
so believe therefore with the
same spirit of faith, I believe
therefore I speak all things
possible.
one more time. Shout it. All
things are possible. One more
time. Shout it. All things are
possible. Sit down for a minute.
What is the meaning of all
things? All things are
possible. See, that's the Bible.
That's the word of god. Listen,
Jesus said, to him. Jesus did
not say all things are
possible alone. He says all
things are possible but it is
possible to him that believes.
To him that believes. A man that
has godly persuasions. See
that's the Bible. All things
are possible.
Lala Basti.
When we see a crooked leg, we
see and we say, I believe all
things are possible.
We see the most oppressed, the
most condemned sinner. The
vilest sinner. We can still
look at that sinner and say,
your salvation is a
possibility. All things are
possible. We believe for them.
We believe for them. This
morning, we believe, we believe,
we believe, we believe, we
believe that we are saving more
souls like never before and
we are laying hands on the sick
like never before and this is a
possibility. We believe, we
believe, we believe, we are
filling men with the Holy Ghost
like never before. We believe
and it is possible. We walk
in possibilities. I speak over
your life by virtue of your
faith. By virtue of your faith,
I don't know what you are
partnering with. I don't know
what you are thinking about. I
don't know the confusions that

You don't bounce faith. You

impossibility that has stood
before you for ages but today
as you believed the word of
God I declare unto your life
to you all things are possible
the power inside your faith is
the ability to dismantle
your faith. Your faith will not
be hindered. All things are
possible to you because you
are God, and all things are
possible to you. Your faith will
not be hindered. All things
possible to you. Your faith
All things are possible to you.
Your faith will not be

Jesus.
In the name of Jesus. Just sit
down for a minute.
Say all things. All things.
Say all things are possible.
To him.
Obas the.
Jesus is all things are possible to him.
The word possible is to the one that believe.
All things are power. It means all things are power loaded.
So it means that all things have the ability to become whatever.
Hey, don't let go of your faith.
Don't let go of your faith. Don't let anybody, anything whatsoever keep you away from where faith is taught you.
Are we together?
Now and straight away.
The father of the child. So when Jesus is.
All things are possible to him that believe.
The man says, I believe.
What do you think the man is saying? I want this thing to be a possibility right now.
I believe. This is help my own belief.
This is one of the.
Funny and pathetic.
He says, I believe. Help my own belief.
How can you believe?
And have unbelief at the same time.
All things are possible.
Then it is, I believe. Help my own belief.
I believe.
And listen to Jesus.
When Jesus saw that people were coming running together, he didn't want to see.
Jesus is amazing. He just repute the spirit.
So a man can have a sort of belief and inside him too he has entertained a certain level of unbelief.
Praise the name of the Lord.
Somebody is asking, alright so we are Christians, we have faith.
So it means we don't disbelieve. Of course yes we have faith.
I mean without faith we couldn't have been saved. But obviously we are saved by grace through faith.
Through our faith.
With regards to the other things that accompany salvation.
Do you have divine convictions in them?
Think about somebody who has believed Jesus is born again, seriously saved.
Says that I don't believe in divine healing.
It means that over here you don't come here.
It will be a hindrance to the full walk of his faith.
Praise the name of the Lord.
But Jesus says to the man who believes all things are possible.
It means that if I can, if I can nurse my faith, I can nurse my faith.
Feed my faith with the resources and materials needed.
I can become whatever I want to become.
I can do whatever the Lord wants me to do.
And nothing shall be impossible.
How?
There is power in us.
I don't have people in this church.
There is power in us.
Say it for the last time. Say there is power in us.
One more time. Say there is power in us.
Hey.
Okay, let's say this thing again. I'm not helpless.
All things are possible.
To me.
All things are possible.
Sometimes you read some of the things the apostles did.
Peter was in a house.
Without any prior notice.
People came and littered his way to save people.
I nearly fell down.
That the shadow of Peter will pass on them by a danger.
And as it passes, they will be healed.
Where did they learn that from?
And the mamuz is, as many as Peter's shadow passes on them.
As many as the shadow of Peter passes on them, they will be healed.
Think about Jesus saying go into the sea.
The first fish you catch, take money out of its mouth.
Think about Jesus.
Picking bread.
Blessing it as he breaks it.
See you're not just be a preacher.
The word of God will have dramatic signs.
You will not just be preaching or be singing.
There will be the dramatic explosions of the power of God.
You will not just be a Christian.
That moves in and moves out and moves in and moves out.
See this year, dramatic explosions of the power of God.
How do we believe for it?
Super, super, super.
I don't care how weak you might have been in the past years.
But the spirit begins a call this morning.
There's a call this morning.
You will be bold to declare by the authority of the word of God that there is somebody who has an ear problem.
As you listen to me, you are healed.
In the name of Jesus, by the agency of the gospel, men will seek us for their solution.
This I believe.
Asunder, Makaya.
You will not lay down the dream.
You will not lay down the vision.
The vision of the Lord.
You will not lay down.
Lay down.
Shall I say?
So, asunder, Makaya.
Let's compilation.
Imire it?
It's become the one.
I see possibilities.
Set dad by.
Am I rising?
Am me rising?
I'm rising at all, I beat.
That.
How is that up?
Is back.
That I push this thing into you.
I pushed this thing into you.
I push this thing into you. I
stand up. The waters of the
anointing in you right now this
morning. You believe you
believe you believe you believe
they are possible.
Those divine assignment, divine
plans, they are possible. They
are possible. They are
possible. They are possible.
They are possible.
Your academics is possible.
They are possible. The business
is possible. Most above all,
their calling is possible.
I know that the calling would
demand a lot of energy but it
is possible. It is possible. It
is possible.
Can you lift up your voice
somebody? Can you lift up your
voice somebody? I'll see it
I believe in possibilities. I
believe in possibilities. I

Oh, thank you lord. Thank you

This year, I wanted to believe
that you are doing more for the
lord. You are doing more for
the lord. A whole experience
of the lord. It is possible. It
is possible. It is possible. It
is possible.
In the name of Jesus.
Hallelujah.
