Good. So from where we stopped today, I just
wanted to make some things clear, just to add
more to clarification before we take on. From
the last place that we stopped on Sunday, we
had a topic that says all believers have all
the gifts of the Spirit and should manifest and
do what? Demonstrate. Hallelujah. And why should
they manifest? Why should they demonstrate? So
that they will do what they will profit of. Hallelujah.
Yes, so let's read 1 Corinthians chapter 12.
1 Corinthians chapter 12. Verse 1. 1 Corinthians
chapter 12, verse 1. We'll start reading from
verse 1 to 11. He said, now concerning spiritual
gifts, brethren, I will not have you ignorant.
Ye know that ye were Gentiles carried away unto
these dumb idols, as even as ye were led. Wherefore,
I give you to understand that no man speaking
by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus a curse, and
that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but
by what? By the Holy Ghost. This is salvation
now. Now there are diversities of gifts, but
the same Spirit. There are differences of administration,
but the same Lord. And there are diversities
of operations, but it is the same God who would
work it all in all. But the manifestation, that's
verse 7 now. You know, on Sunday, we established
that verse 7. That word manifestation is what?
Can somebody help me? The word manifestation
is what? You can type it. Or you can switch on
your mic. Let's hear you. That word manifestation
is what? To reveal clearly. In Greek what? That
word manifestation is what? And it means what?
Phanerosis. Yes, phanerosis. Phanerosis. It means
what? What does it mean? To reveal. Hallelujah.
To make bare. Nothing to hide. Plainly visible.
Because that word phanerosis was obtained from
the word phanero. And the word phanero to make
visible what has been hidden. Whether by words
or deeds. Amen. In any other way. The word Phanerosis
was gotten from the word Phaneru, which means
what? To make visible. When we say you are making
something visible, which means that what you
want to do is that you want a thing to meet the
eyes. You want the eyes to see it. You want the
five senses to be able to perceive it. You want
the five senses to be able to interact with that
which you are making visible. So now verse seven,
he says, but the plain revealing of the spirit,
or we can say, or the visible, can you see? Or,
but that which has been hidden, Has been revealed.
Of the spirit. And is given to every man to do
what? To profit all. And when you get your BLB.
If you have your BLB. Because we are doing a
study. When you go to your BLB. Everybody go
to your BLB. If you have it. You realize that.
You know the translators. did a good job to be
able to write 1 Corinthians 7 for us, chapter
12, verse 11, right? But now, they shifted some
things because in the original context, right?
Because on Sunday, I said something that I need
to bring attention to it, right? And what is
it? He said, dividing to what? To every man severally
at what? As he will. And I told us that that
word he will is not the spirit or rather the
receiver, the man. Somebody was, you know, probably
maybe asked the question, but how will you say
that? Because my Bible is saying as he will.
English language says it's the spirit that is
willing. If you read it that way, it means that.
The Holy Spirit has a choice to give you or not
to give you. But that is not how that place is.
So when you go to the original rendition, if
you have your BLB, let's read it together. Right?
You will realize in your BLB, it says that dividing
separately to how many men? To every man as he
will. Did you open that place, Victory? Did you
see something like that in your BLB? When you
open your BLB, you see dividing severally to
every man. Not dividing to every man severally
as he will. Dividing severally to every man as
the man will. Yes, thank you, Takunda. So, that
word, that word, he will, it means, it means
based on the desire of the man. So, I make, based
on my desire to prophesy, based on my desire
to give a word of knowledge, based on my desire
to give a word of wisdom, based on my desire,
right? To give a tongue an interpretation of
tongue. Based on my desire. Or based on purpose.
Or based on need. That word. That is as he will.
But you see there is something unique here. It
says dividing severally. You know. When you use
the word. When you use the English word. Severally.
It means what? Somebody should help me. When
you use the English word severally, it means
what? When I say I am giving you money or I am
giving you my property or I am giving you several
properties, what do I mean? Oh, class, you should
help me, my brothers and sisters. When I say
I am giving you properties severally, you can
type it, please. Okay, miracle says different.
Somebody is saying individual. Tapunda says more
than two. English word says more than two. Many,
easy, a lot. If I say I am dividing, let's go
back to 1 Corinthians now. We're going to do
it now. So I want to clear something to us. When
I say verse 11, everybody. When I say I am dividing
to every man severally, as he will. That word
severally, if you are going to use English dictionary,
it means many. But when I use the word, I am
dividing this property, right? To several of
you. I now mean what? To what? To each of you.
But when I say I'm dividing severally, it's different
from I am dividing this property to several of
you. Do we understand? So when you go by the
way of King James Version or New King James Version
or the version you're using, you're going to
get that verse wrongly. Because in the original
context, now when you check your PLB, your PLB
says that dividing severally to every man. That
word severally, when you check the original word,
it means idios or ideals. Ideals means privately.
Ideals means one's own. Ideals means belonging
to oneself. So what that scripture is saying
is that, but all this, that one and the self
-same spirit dividing privately to every man
at the wheel. Hallelujah. Dividing what is the
Holy Ghost to every man. So that which is the
Holy Ghost, what is that which is the Holy Ghost?
The prophecy, prophecy, right? Gift of prophecy
is the Holy Ghost. Amen? What again can we see?
Word of wisdom is the Holy Ghost. Right? Word
of knowledge is the Holy Ghost. Gift of faith
is the Holy Ghost. Gift of healing is the Holy
Ghost. Working of miracles is the Holy Ghost.
Designing of spirits is the Holy Ghost. Diverse
kinds of tongues is the Holy Ghost. interpretation
of songs is what is the holy ghost nine of them
so what the scripture is saying that the holy
ghost is taking what is his own and giving it
to the believer hallelujah so the holy ghost
dwells in the believer so which means that that
which is the holy ghost is the believers also
can you see it do we understand Please, if you're
with me, you should indicate. Do we understand?
That which is the Holy Ghost has now belongs
to who? It's now belonging to you. Praise God.
Gift of prophecy. The Holy Ghost has taken what
is His and divided to the believer and giving
it to the believer. That was severally does not
mean that He's dividing each. No, no, no. He's
saying that that which is the Holy Ghost is given
to every believer. gift of prophecy, word of
knowledge, word of wisdom, the gift of faith,
healing, walking of miracles, tongues, interpretation
of tongues, gift of faith. The Holy Ghost is
taking that which it is and giving to the believer.
So the believer has the gift of prophecy. The
believer has the gift of word of wisdom. Word
of knowledge. That is why when we start reading
from verse 8, he said, for to one is given by
the Spirit, Holy Ghost. Then the word of wisdom
to another, word of knowledge by the same Spirit.
So the Holy Ghost is the one that ensures that
all his gifts are given to the believer. When
you check that word, It means one's own. It's
not your English words. It means belonging to
oneself. It means privately owned. So that which
is privately owned of the Holy Ghost is now with
the believers. Hallelujah. How do I know it's
the believer's own? Because the Holy Ghost dwells
in the believer. Praise God. When we now read
Matthew chapter 9 verse 1. I will just read two
scriptures for us. And then you can go home.
And then do some personal study on that. Matthew
chapter 9 verse 1. And he entered into a ship
and passed over. And came to what? To his ideal
city. Hallelujah. He came to his own city. Praise
God. Belonging to his own. Matthew 25, 14. Matthew
25, 14. See what the scripture says. For the
kingdom of heaven is as a man traveling into
a far country who calls his own servants. Amen.
His own. He calls his ideal servants. And deliver
unto them his goods. Praise God. So the Holy
Ghost dwells in the believer. But the Holy Ghost
has given the believer. Oh, thank you, Holy Ghost.
The Holy Ghost has given the believer all of
the things that he sees. Hallelujah. I have the
prophetic. I have word of wisdom. I have. word
of knowledge. I have the gift of healing. I have
the gift of miracles. I have the gift of tongues.
I have the gift of interpretation of tongues.
I have the gift of prophecy. How did I get it?
The Holy Ghost gave me. Praise God. You see why?
You see why? It's your will. It's now left on
your will. When you read it, he said, he divides
severally to every man as the man wills. Now
you have them. The Holy Ghost is now on your
own terms to operate them. Praise God. So now
you have to act on your will to do what? To operate
them. You have to make up your mind. On your
own choice. To do what? To operate them. On your
own will. On your own. When there is a purpose
for it. When there is a need for it. The receiver
is the one. That makes the choice. To operate.
Hallelujah. That place. 1 Corinthians chapter
12. See again. Let's go there. We are going to
stay there. or some things. 1 Corinthians 12
verse 6. It says, And there are diversities of
what? Oppressions. These diversities of oppressions
can only be by the will of the believer. So,
stir up your mind. Stir up your will. Stir it
up. Stir it up. stayed up stayed up for there
inside you is the prophetic i'm giving a word
now somebody for there inside you is the prophetic
but they're lying inside you is the word of is
the word of wisdom but there inside you is the
word of knowledge but there inside is the gift
of feeling for there is that is the walking of
miracles but there inside you is the deal of
faith hallelujah for there inside you lying his
bones and interpretation of thoughts act on your
will dear believer and operate them all. The
Holy Ghost has taken that which is his and has
given it to you. Praise God. He has given us
all. He has given us all. He has given us all.
He has given us all. When it comes to manifesting
the things of the Spirit, the Spirit has taken
all of it and has given it to the believer. Hallelujah.
You have Everything that is the Holy Ghost. You
have it. You have it. You have it. You have it.
I'll repeat myself again. You have it. All that
is the Holy Ghost. You have it. Praise God. That
was several ideals. Don't forget. The Holy Ghost
has already willed it and has given it to you.
Amen. He has given it to you. They are all in
us. So make a decision today to prophesy. Make
a decision today to manifest. Make a decision
to make visible a prophetic word. Make a decision
today to make visible a word of wisdom. Make
a decision today to make visible a word of knowledge.
It's in you, dear believer. Why? Because when
you do that, you are bringing benefit. Praise
God. That word, to profit all, or to profit with
all, it means sumfero. Profit with all. It means
what? Sumfero. S -U -M -P -H -E -R -O. Sumfero.
Sumfero. Sumfero means To benefit others. To
contribute to others. To bear together with others.
To bring advantage to others. Be better towards
others. Tumfero means what? To bring benefit
to others. Do you see? The Holy Ghost has given
you the prophetic in order to bring benefit to
others. The Holy Ghost has given you word of
wisdom to fanerosis towards others. The Holy
Ghost has given you word of knowledge to Tumfero
towards others. You see the reason why the believer
must always manifest the things of the spirit
because all the things of the spirit has been
given to the believer in my name you shall cast
out devils in my name you shall lay hands on
the sick and the sick will get healed in my name
you shall speak new tongues can you see It's
not the Holy Spirit that will come and lay his
hands there. It's not the Holy Ghost that will
come and speak the tongues. It's not the Holy
Ghost that will come and cast out the devils.
You are the one that will cast the devils out
because all the gift is in you and you shall
receive power after that the Holy Ghost is what?
It's come upon you. So everything is yours in
Christ Jesus. Hallelujah. The posture that God
has put the believer in is the posture of benefit.
Every day the believer ought to benefit other
brethren. Every day the believer must bring benefit.
Bring benefit. Bring benefit to your sisters.
Bring benefit to your brother. Bring benefit
to your local church. Bring benefit to your pastors.
Bring benefit to your husband. Bring benefit
to your wife. Bring benefit to your children.
All the things of the Holy Ghost are yours. Hallelujah.
Bring benefit. Acts chapter 20, verse 20. Let's
see that word. Benefit. Acts 20, 20. And how
I kept back nothing that was profitable unto
you. But have done what? I have shown you and
have taught you publicly. And from house to house.
I kept nothing. I kept nothing. This is Paul
speaking. I kept nothing that is profitable unto
you. All that the Holy Ghost has given you. Is
profitable to the local church. Don't keep it.
Don't hold it. Release it. Operate in them all.
1 Corinthians chapter 10 verse 33. Even as I
please all men in all things, not seeking my
own profit, but the profit of many. Hallelujah.
Seek the profit of your brother. Seek the profit
of your sister. Seek the profit of your local
church. Seek the profit of believers around you.
The gifts of the Holy Ghost are yours. Why should
I do that? I told us on Sunday to write something
down. Walk in love. Hallelujah. Walk in love.
Walk in love. Why? Because you cannot bring benefits
to the local church if you don't make a choice
to walk in love. You see? The God kind of love
is a profiting kind of love. The God kind of
love is a beneficial kind of love. The God kind
of love makes the other better. The God kind
of love tears up the other. The God kind of love
is the love that ensures that the other keeps
growing. Everywhere, we're going to see it. Everywhere
you see the scripture talks about love, you will
see sacrifice. You will see benefits. I'm going
to read two, three scriptures and then I'll leave
off here. 1 Corinthians chapter 13. 1 Corinthians
chapter 13. When it comes to the operation of
the things of the spirit, manifesting the things
of the spirit, love. is the platform. Love is
the key. Love is the key. Love is the key. Love
is the key. Walk in love. Walk in love. Walk
in love. Walk in love. And in walking in love,
you will see a demonstration of all the things
of the Spirit through you. You will see the operation
of all the things of the Holy Ghost through you.
1 Corinthians 13. He said, though I speak with
the tongues of men and of angels and have not
charity, I am become a sounding brass or a tinkling
cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy
and understand all mysteries and all knowledge,
and though I have all faith so that I can remove
mountains and have not charity, I am nothing.
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the
poor, And though I give my body to be burned
and have no charity, it profited me what? Nothing.
So which means you can choose to prophesy and
not walk in love. You can give a word of wisdom
and you are not in love. You can give a word
of knowledge and you are not walking in love.
How do I know what will now come after you have
given a word of prophecy? How do I know? that
you're not working in love when you give a word
of wisdom, selfishness is going to come up. How
do I know that you're not working in love when
you operate in the gift of healing? There will
be divisions. There will be carnality. There
will be works of flesh manifested. But every
time there is working in love and there is oppression
of the things of the spirit, you will see pride.
You won't see carnality. You won't see self -centeredness.
You won't see divisions. He said love or charity
suffered long. It's kind. Can you see? Charity
envied not. Can you see? Sacrifice. Charity vaunted
not itself. Charity is not buffed up. Charity
behave itself what? does not behave itself unseemly.
It does not speak her own. It's not easily provoked.
When we keep reading, you keep saying that love
is not selfish. Prophecy that the Holy Ghost
has given you, all the gifts of the Holy Ghost
that he has given you, is not yours to keep.
It's for you to walk in love with them towards
the local church. For you to walk in love with
them towards the brethren. Ephesians 5 verse
2. Ephesians 5 verse 2. See what the scripture
says. And walk in love as Christ also at work
loved us. And have given himself. For us as an
offering. And his sacrifice to God. For his sweet
smelling. So what Jesus did. Was to bring profit
to us. What Jesus did. Was to bring benefit to
us. What Jesus did. Was to make our lives. Of
more advantage. Colossians chapter 3. Colossians
chapter 3. Verse 12. See what the scripture says.
Put on, therefore, as the elect of God, holy
and beloved, power of mercy, kindness, humbleness
of mind, meekness, long -suffering, touching,
forbearing one another, and forgiving one another.
If anyone have a quarrel against you, right?
Even as Christ, what? forgive you also do yes.
He was supporting everybody. And above all things,
put on love, which is the bond of what? Perfectness.
You see, because you are walking in love. You
are forgiving one another. Because you are walking
in love, you are showing mercy to one another.
You are showing kindness to one another. You
are humble towards one another. You are meek
towards one another. You are long -suffering
towards one another. Hallelujah. When it comes
to the oppression of the things of the Spirit,
it's by love. Hallelujah. That is the only way
you can bring benefit to your brother. You can
bring benefit to your husband. You can bring
benefit to your wife when you walk in love. So
all the gifts of the Holy Ghost can only be beneficial
to your sisters, to your brothers, to the local
church when you walk in love. So we are the ones
who desire to demonstrate that which we have
received of the Spirit of God. Hallelujah. So
what are the characteristics of being filled
with the Spirit of God? What are the characteristics?
Number one, you are giving to supernatural utterances.
Acts chapter 2 verse 4, we are ready. When you
are filled with the Spirit of God, you are given
to supernatural utterances. Tongues and interpretation
of tongues. The prophecy. Word of wisdom. Word
of knowledge. Supernatural utterances. To revelations
and visions. When you are filled with the Spirit
of God, you will see revelations and visions.
Acts chapter 2, verse 17 to 18. Acts chapter
2, verse 17 to 18. You can read it. When you
are being filled with the Spirit of God, you
are going to see miracles. That's the third one.
Miracles. Miracles. Miracles. Signs and wonders.
Everywhere you see men are giving and are filled
with the Spirit of God, you are going to see
demonstration of miracles. Signs and wonders.
Romans chapter 15 verse 19. Romans chapter 15
verse 19. Acts chapter 10 verse 38. How God anointed
Jesus Christ of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost
and with power. And he went about doing good.
Healing all that were oppressed. Healing all
that were sick. And casting out all that were
oppressed of demons. Acts chapter 6 verse 8.
Acts chapter 8 verse 7. Miracles, signs and wonders.
Characteristics of being filled with the Spirit.
You will see giving of thanks. That's the fourth
one. Giving of thanks. Ephesians chapter 5 verse
18 to 20. Ephesians chapter 5 verse 18 to 20.
We've read it up. Do not be drunk with wine which
is in excess, but be filled with the Spirit of
God, speaking to yourselves in hymns, psalms,
and spiritual songs. 1 Corinthians 14, verse
17. Giving of thanks. He that giveth thanks in
tongues giveth thanks well. characteristics of
being filled with the spirit of god number five
you will see a feeling of joy the believer will
be full of joy full of joy full of joy ask chapter
8 verse 8. ask chapter 8 verse 8. ask chapter
8 verse 8. you will see Acts chapter 8, verse
8. And there was great joy in that city. Philip
took over the whole city by being filled with
the Spirit of God and brought joy to the city.
2 Corinthians 3, verse 17. 2 Corinthians 3, verse
17. Now the Lord is that spirit. And where the
spirit of the Lord is, there is what? There is
liberty. Hallelujah. Romans 15 verse 13. Full
of joy. Romans 15 verse 13. Now the God of hope
fills you with what? With all joy and peace in
believing that ye abound in hope through the
power of the Holy Ghost. Praise God. Characters
of being filled with the Spirit. There will be
submission to one another and willing to serve.
There will be submission to one another and willing
to serve. Hallelujah. There will be submission
to one another and willing to serve. When you
go to Ephesians chapter 5 verse 18 till 21. Submission
to one another and willing to what? And willing
to serve. Hallelujah. Nothing should stop you
from seeing supernatural utterances. Nothing
should stop you. You're going to experience revelations
and visions, miracles, signs and wonders, giving
of thanks, full of joy, submission to one another,
and willing to what? To serve. Hallelujah. Everywhere
you see a man that is filled with the Spirit
of God, look out for these characteristics. Look
out for these characteristics. Some of the things
that will hinder us from manifesting the gifts
of the Holy Ghost. Some of the things that will
hinder us from manifesting the things of the
Spirit in this season. You know, number one,
when we despise the things of the Holy Ghost.
1 Thessalonians 5, 16 to 20. When we despise
prophesies, that word to despise prophesies,
it means when you treat the things of the Spirit
with contempt, willful ignorance, making a choice
to despise the things of the Spirit. When you
suppress the things of the Spirit, you are despising
the things of the Spirit. Number two, one of
the things that will stop you from manifesting
the things of the Spirit, your association. If
you have a friend that despises the things of
the Spirit, I give you a little time, you will
end up like your friend. When you have fellowship
or move with believers who do not contend for
the things of the Spirit, when you move with
believers, When you move with believers that
do not contend to see the manifestation and demonstration
of the things of the Spirit, with time, you will
stop seeing them in your life. When you move
with believers that their desire and fervency
for the things of the Spirit is low, you are
not going to see them soon in your life. When
your fervency and desire is low, your fervency
and desire for the things of the Spirit will
also be low in a short time. Three, when you
are familiar with the things of the Spirit. Familiarity.
We know one now. We know, we know, we know. Do
not be familiar with the things of the Spirit,
with the Holy Ghost. The flow of the things of
the Holy Ghost is always fresh. The flow of the
Holy Ghost in the believer is always what? It's
always fresh. Desire to see fresh utterances.
Desire to see fresh move of the Holy Ghost in
your life. Do not be in familiarity with the
things of the Holy Ghost. I just gave a prophetic
word now to someone. Let it be fresh. Desire
that daily the flow of the Spirit through you
will be flesh in all your meetings. In any meeting,
desire to see the flow of the things of the Holy
Ghost fresh. Four. Number four. One of the things
that will stop you or hinder you from manifesting
the things of the Spirit is worldliness. Worldliness.
Carnality. Worldliness. When you begin to hear
some sort of doctrine that plays down on the
love of God, on the love work and honor for the
body of Christ. Wordliness. Wordliness. When
you begin hearing some doctrines that plays down
on the love of God. that plays down on the things
of the spirit, that plays down on honor for the
body of Christ, worldliness. When you begin to
listen to people and friends that quench your
pursuit for the supernatural, please, I want
to speak to someone here. Stop listening to people
that always are around you to quench your desire
for the supernatural. Stop listening to them.
In fact, let me say this, it's coming to my heart,
leave them. Any friend that will quench your
quest, your pursuit for the supernatural power
of the Holy Ghost, leave that friend. It's not
a supernatural friendship. Number five. Prayerlessness.
Prayerlessness can cause your fervency for the
things of the spirit to be low. Prayerlessness
can cause your fervency for the things, demonstration
of the things of the Holy Ghost, the manifestation
of the things of the Holy Ghost, your fervency
for them to be low. So now, We say characteristics
of the things of the Holy Ghost. We say when
you are filled with the Spirit, number one, what
did I say? When you are filled with the Spirit,
number one, let me know whether you are with
me. You are giving to supernatural utterances.
You are giving to supernatural utterances. God
bless you. So, we are going to pick that one,
number one. When you are filled with the Spirit
of God, the first evidence we see scripturally,
can you hear what I'm saying? The first evidence,
one of the initial evidence that we are going
to see at work in your life as a believer is
the supernatural utterance. Supernatural utterance.
Supernatural utterance. Speaking, speaking, speaking,
speaking, speaking. Acts chapter 2 verse 4. Acts
chapter 2 verse 4. And they were all filled with
the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other
tongues as the Spirit gave them. utterance speaking
as chapter 4 verse 8 then peter fear with the
holy ghost spoke unto them speaking when you
are filled with the holy ghost the initial first
evidence we are going to see is supernatural
alterance acts of the former study one Acts chapter
4 verse 31. And when they had prayed, the place
was shaking where they were assembled together
and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost
and they did what? And they spake the word of
God with holiness. Speaking. Acts chapter 10
verse 45. Can you see? Speaking. Acts chapter
10, verse 45. And they of the circumcision we
believe were astonished as many as came with
Peter because what? That on the Gentiles also
was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. See
46, everybody. For they did what? For they heard
them speak with tongues. Hallelujah. Write this
as additional scripture. Acts 19 verse 6. Acts
19 verse 6. Acts 11 verse 24. So. When we say.
The utterance gift. Of supernatural utterance.
We mean. Speaking in tongues. We mean. Prophecies.
Tongues are supernatural utterance. And the believer
is the one that makes choice to speak. He's the
one that acts on his own will to speak. Why?
Because being filled with the Spirit of God,
I said on Sunday that somebody will ask a question.
So how can I be filled with the spirit of God?
And I told us that being filled with the spirit
of God means what? Manifesting that which is
the Holy Ghost from within. Demonstrating the
things of the spirit. So how can that be possible?
By speaking. Hallelujah. By speaking in tongues.
How can I stay off the things of the Spirit and
I see a demonstration of them? By doing what?
By speaking. Speaking in tongues. Giving a prophetic
word. When we read 1 Corinthians chapter 14.
1 Corinthians chapter 14. What do we see? In
the whole of 1 Corinthians chapter 14, Paul was
addressing the church to bring order regarding
the oppression of the prophetic. And he began
that chapter, every one of us, let's go there
because we are coming to that place now. He said,
follow after charity and desire spiritual gifts.
But rather that they may what? prophesied, for
he that would speak it in an unknown tongue,
speaking unto men or unto God, for no man understood
him, how being in the Spirit he would speak at
mysteries. But he that prophesied, speaking unto
men, verification and exhortation and comfort
was for everybody. He that speaketh in an unknown
tongue hath defied himself. But he that prophesied
hath defied what? The church. So what is prophecy
in chapter 14? When you read, prophecy is tongues
and interpretation of tongues. Tongues plus interpretation
of tongues is equal to prophecy. What is prophecy?
Prophecy is supernatural utterance in a simple
language that the audience can receive it and
be edified. Let me repeat myself. Prophecy is
supernatural utterance in simple language that
the audience can receive that utterance and what?
Be edified. This is a summary of prophecy. We're
going to come with time and teach on prophecy,
gift of prophecy, word of wisdom, word of knowledge.
The last prayer groups that we had, some of us
were giving prophecy, some of us were giving
word of wisdom, some of us were giving word of
knowledge. However, we're all mixing it together,
but we're going to come and then be trained and
taught. So you see an emphasis by Paul on speaking
in tongues. Oh, my dearly beloved brethren on
this platform, I encourage you. Pray in tongues
more. Pray in tongues more. Speak in tongues
more. Speak in tongues more. For in so doing,
you're going to make so much adventure in the
things of the Holy Ghost. For in so doing, you're
going to see an increase in the demonstration
of the things of the Holy Ghost much more. For
in so doing, you're going to see the manifestation
of the things of the Holy Ghost. See how many
times Paul, Had to mention tongues. 1 Corinthians
chapter 12 verse 10. He mentioned tongues there.
To another, the walking of miracles. To another,
prophecy. To another, designing of spirits. To
another, diverse kinds of tongues. To another,

of tongues? Emphasis on tongues, tongues, tongues,

God that I pray in tongues more than ye are.
Tongues. Tongues is in the spirit. Hallelujah.
Can you hear what I'm saying, everybody? Tongues
is in the spirit. And if tongues is a manifestation
of the spirit, then you must value the things
of the spirit. It means that you must value tongues.
am in the spirit and tongues is in the spirit
so I ought to value it. Let me repeat myself.
I am in the spirit and tongues is in the spirit
so I ought to value tongues. Hallelujah. By tongues
we can make adventures in the spirit. By tongues
we will stay aflame. By tongues we will stay
fervent. Will we stay long enough? Praying in
tongues. We will see more demonstration. And
manifestation of the Holy Ghost. Let me repeat
this line again. When we stay long enough. Praying
in the Holy Ghost. We will see the demonstration.
And the manifestation. Of the things of the Holy
Ghost. Much more. Okay. Praying in tongues. Find
Jesus. In the spirit. Do you hear what I said?
Praying in tongues fine -tunes us in the Spirit.
This that I'm about to say is someone's answer
right now. When you pray more in tongues, your
experiences in the things of the Spirit will
begin to change. These just answered someone's
questions about revelations and visions. Who
is the person? There's somebody on this platform.
You've been having a question and much more regarding
revelation and vision. Who is the person? You
can just indicate on the chat box. This is your
answer. When you pray more in tongues, your experiences

So go extreme in tongues. Pray in tongues more.
Think also in tongues more. Give a hymn. Spiritual
tongues. spiritual songs sing in the spirit much

comfort will come. For in so doing, healing will

So you must be filled and full of the things
of the Holy Ghost. How? By praying in tongues.
How do I get filled with the Spirit of God? By
praying in tongues. By speaking much more. So
you need to have fervency when it comes to the
flow of the Holy Ghost. Do you understand what
I said? You need to have what? You need to have
fervency. Oh, your fervency must be on the edge.
Please, hear this thing I'm saying. Many people
have walked up to me and asked me, Sir, how is
it that you seem to flow when you just come into
a meeting? The meeting will be so dry. And then
when you stand up, there seems to be a steering
that is different that just catches people. A
couple of people have had the privilege, we've
had the privilege to go to some certain programs
around on this island and the meeting was as
dry as anything. And by the feeling with the
Spirit of God, we came up to the minister and
that place was on fire and the flow of the things
of the Holy Ghost. How? is this possible by staying
fervent when it comes to the flow of the Holy
Ghost? Brothers and sisters, stay fervent. Oh,
dear husband, dear husband, listen to me. If
you want to see much more of the Holy Ghost demonstration
in your family, stay fervent to the flow of the
things of the Holy Ghost. Dear wife, if you want
to see much more the flow of the Holy Ghost in
that family, stay fervent when it comes to the
things of the Holy Ghost. One of the things I
will tell you, how to stay fervent. Number one,
your desire must not be ordinary. Do you hear
what I said? Your desire to see the demonstration
of the things of the Holy Ghost must not be what?
Must not be ordinary. 1 Corinthians chapter 12
verse 31. Everybody see what the scripture says.
1 Corinthians 12 verse 31. He said, but what?
Convert endlessly the best gifts. Hallelujah.
When it comes to the things of the Holy Ghost,
you have to convert how? Earnestly. 1 Corinthians
14, 39. 1 Corinthians 14, 39. Wherefore, brethren,
convert to prophesy, and forbid not what? To
speak with tongues. 1 Corinthians 14, verse 1.
1 Corinthians 14, verse 1. Follow authority and
desire spiritual gifts. Hallelujah. Romans chapter
12, verse 11. Romans chapter 12, verse 11. Let's
see there, brethren. Romans 12, verse 11. See
what the scripture says there. Not flawfully
in business. Serving the what? In spirit. Serving
the Lord. Serving in spirit. Thou wilt to convert
earnestly. Are you here with me? Thou wilt to
convert earnestly. The Greek word there is zilo.
Zilo. Z -E -L -O -O. Convert endlessly. Zeal.
It's the same word with be fervent. The same
root word, zeal. It means to burn with zeal.
To burn with zeal. Be fervent means to boil.
Have a zeal that is unquenchable. Have a zeal
that is boiling. the fire of the spirit so your
desire must not be ordinary your desire must
not be what ordinary be flexible to the holy
ghost so your pharmacy and flexibility To the
Holy Ghost. And to the things of the Holy Ghost.
Must not be ordinary. Hallelujah. And they must
be built upon. These things I'm about saying.
Your fervency. And your flexibility. To the flow.
Of the things of the Holy Ghost. Must be built
on. Regular devotion. Regular devotion. In fellowship
with God. Regular devotion in fellowship with
God. In words, in prayer, and in meditation.
In words, in prayer, and in meditation. 1 Thessalonians
5 verse 17. 1 Thessalonians 5 verse 17. See what
the scripture says. Glory to God. I just perceive
more that there are many people on this platform
that are already stirred up in the spirit. 1
Corinthians 5, verse 17. From verse 16. Rejoice
evermore. Pray without what? Ceasing. Regular
devotion in prayers, in the word, and in meditation.
Luke 18 verse 1, and Jesus gave this parable
unto them, saying, men ought to always pray and
not faint. Ephesians chapter 6 verse 18, praying
always with all manner of supplication in the
spirit. Romans 12, verses 1 to 2. Your mind be
transformed on the word. So your frequency and
flexibility to the flow of the things of the
Holy Ghost must be built on what? Regular what?
Devotion. In prayer. In the word. And in what?
In meditation. Secondly, in your participation.
In Holy Ghost meetings. In your participation
in what? In Holy Ghost meetings. You see, why
all of them were able to flow in the things of
the Holy Ghost in Acts chapter 2 verse 4 is because
they were all together in one place. Always participate
in believers meetings. Your fervency will be
on the edge. Your fire will be on the edge. Your
desire will not be ordinary. You will find men
that are like passion like you. You will find
men that are like passion. Men that have same
passion. Men that are burning. Men that are converting
endlessly. Just as you. So make a choice. You
have to make a choice to start out on the things
of the Holy Ghost. When it comes to the flow
and manifesting the things of spirit, you have
to start out. Please, don't be afraid. I just
hear in my heart a word for someone now. Don't
be afraid to start something. Don't be afraid
to start out on the prophetic. Don't be afraid
to start out praying in tongues. Don't be afraid
to give out that word of knowledge. So make a
choice. You are the one to start it out. 1 Corinthians
14, verse 26. 1 Corinthians 14, verse 26. How
is it, brethren, when you come together? Every
one of you had what? Had a thumb. Every one of
you had a doctrine. Every one of you had what?
Interpretation. Can you see a Holy Ghost meeting
there? Let all things be done unto what? A defiant.
So stand it up. 1 Timothy chapter 4 verse 14.
1 Timothy chapter 4 verse 14. See what the scripture
says. Neglect not the gift that is in you which
was given thee by the prophecy with the laying
on of hands of the world of the presbytery. Neglect
it not. You do not neglect the gifts that are
with you, in you, sorry. You do not neglect the
things of the Holy Ghost that are in you, that
are yours. Do not neglect it. Do not what? Neglect
it. 2 Timothy chapter 1, verse 6. 2 Timothy chapter
1. Do not neglect. Do not neglect the things
of the Holy Ghost. Flow in the things of the
Holy Ghost. Flow in the things of the Holy Ghost.
2 Timothy chapter 1 verse 6. Wherefore I put
thee in remembrance, NECF Church, that thou share
of the gift of God which is in you by the putting
on of my hands. Who is the one to steer it up?
Please, President, answer me. Who is the one
that will steer it up? Who? Me. Thank you, Takunda.
Me. Steer it up. And I have this word now. Anytime
you neglect the things of the Holy Ghost, it
will be difficult for you to steer them up. Do
you hear what I said? Every time you neglect
the gifts that are within you, it will be difficult
for you to do what? To stir them up. It will
be difficult for you to manifest them. It will
be difficult for you to what? To demonstrate
them. Every time you stir up the gifts of the
Holy Ghost, let me say them again. Every time
you neglect the things of the Holy Ghost, it
will be difficult for you to manifest them. It
will be difficult for you to flow in them. Because
the more they are stirred up, you are practicing
them. You are practicing them. You are practicing
them. You are practicing them. You will get better.
at it when it comes to the things of the holy
ghost do not have a pattern do you know what
i said do not have a what do not have a pattern
be flexible do you hear what i said be flexible
be flexible be flexible be flexible that's how
the flow of the holy ghost is You will get to
a place and you will hear a sharing of much more.
You will see a living much more. You will see
much more that is stirred up within you to lay
hands on the sick and they get healed. You will
get into another place. It's not a laying on
of hands. It's a prophetic word. You get into
another place, it's a walking of miracles. You're
going to see creative miracles happening through
your hands as Jesus writes them. So contend for
the flow of the things of the Holy Ghost. Contend
for the manifestation of the things of the Spirit.
content for the demonstration of the things of
the Holy Ghost. Dear brethren, dear believer,
dear sister, dear brother, content to see the
demonstration and the manifestation of the things
of the Holy Ghost. Lastly, lastly, you can check
your pharmacy. If you're with me now, you can
check how fervent you are regarding the things
of the Holy Ghost, or you can check your fervency
regarding the manifestation and the demonstration
of the things of the Holy Ghost by your attitude
and your actions towards the things of the Holy
Ghost. How? Let me repeat myself. You can check
your fervency. By your attitudes and your actions
towards the things of the Holy Ghost. How? Number
one. Your affection for the things of the Spirit.
How is your affection? How is your love for the
things of the Spirit? Is it growing cold and
cold? Is it getting low, low and low every day?
Number two. Your readiness always to jump into
sharing of the things of the Spirit. Your readiness
to jump into sharing of the things of the Spirit.
How ready are you? How ready are you? When you
say, give a word of prophecy, how ready are you?
When we say, give a word of wisdom, how ready
are you? When you say, sing, give us a song,
give us a hymn, how ready are you by the Spirit?
Can you trigger the flow of the things of the
spirit by how passionate you are? Can you get
into a place? Let me repeat the line. Can you
trigger the things of the spirit by how passionate
you are? When you get into a place and the place
is dry, the atmosphere is dark. The atmosphere
is so choked. Can you be able to start out a
move of the Holy Ghost? Can you be able to start
out a flow of the things of the Spirit? You can
check your fervency by how daily you practice
more and more the things of the Spirit. You can
check it, how daily you practice more and more
the things of the Spirit. When it comes to the
flow and the manifestation of the things of the
Spirit, you start it out. You have to start out.
Have a kind of attitude that initiate the things
of God. Have a kind of attitude that initiate
the flow of the things of the Spirit. When you
get into a place, Haven't we read in Acts chapter
6? He said, let's get amidst us men that are
full of faith. Men that are full of the Holy
Ghost and wisdom. Men that can start out the
flow of the things of the Spirit. Men that are
yielded to the things of the Spirit. Men that
can easily be moved by the impulses of the Holy
Ghost. Always have a hunger. Always have a hunger
by yielding to the Holy Ghost more. And then
lastly, always be ready to use your faith, brother.
Always be ready to use your faith, sister. Always
be ready to put your faith into action. Always
be ready to put your faith into action. Be on
the front on the use of your faith. Be on the
floor on the use of your faith. Regarding the
things of the Holy Ghost. Regarding the manifestational
things of the Spirit. You are the one to stay
up. You are the one to flow in the things of
the Spirit. Can we pray in the Holy Ghost, wheresoever
you are right now? Can you pray in tongues? Can
you pray in tongues? There is already a staring
in that room. Pray in tongues. In that office,
pray in tongues. On your bed. You are the one
to stay out. In your room you can start out.
Much more. In your bed. You can start out. A
move of the Holy Ghost. You can take a city.
You can bring. One of comfort. You can bring
direction. You can bring restoration. Can we
pray in tongues, everybody? Can we pray in tongues?

In Jesus' name we pray.
