And I 00:00:56.479 --> 00:00:59.689 experience and I see so much. operations of the 00:00:59.689 --> 00:01:02.649 gifts of the Holy Ghost at work in my life. I 00:01:02.649 --> 00:01:04.349 have supernatural. Before we pray, let me say 00:01:04.349 --> 00:01:06.950 something. Last two days, I wanted to sleep. 00:01:07.489 --> 00:01:11.569 And after the whole prayers, I just said something. 00:01:11.609 --> 00:01:14.269 I said, Holy Spirit, as I sleep, I have supernatural 00:01:14.269 --> 00:01:19.150 experiences. And I slept. That night, I had several 00:01:19.150 --> 00:01:23.310 dreams. Series of dreams from one to another, 00:01:23.469 --> 00:01:26.489 to another, to another. But let me just say one 00:01:26.489 --> 00:01:29.230 on this platform. So there's a pastor in Nigeria. 00:01:29.450 --> 00:01:31.950 We have never met. We have never talked. I know 00:01:31.950 --> 00:01:34.709 about him through someone that left from here. 00:01:35.109 --> 00:01:37.530 But it's been a while we spoke about the pastor. 00:01:37.909 --> 00:01:41.370 But I slept. And when I slept, I had a dream 00:01:41.370 --> 00:01:44.250 with him that both of us were traveling on a 00:01:44.250 --> 00:01:47.349 road. I was inside a bus. The pastor was also 00:01:47.349 --> 00:01:50.250 in their bus. If you are in Nigeria or in Africa, 00:01:50.349 --> 00:01:51.650 you know that normally where you are taking, 00:01:51.769 --> 00:01:54.230 where you are traveling long distances, the driver 00:01:54.230 --> 00:01:56.799 tends to stop on the road. So that everybody 00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:59.480 that needs to ease themselves, buy food and all 00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:01.620 those things. So, but this time around, we met 00:02:01.620 --> 00:02:03.900 them on the road and then they were resting. 00:02:04.299 --> 00:02:06.540 So the pastor and his friend were just by the 00:02:06.540 --> 00:02:09.039 car, you know, sitting down and kneeling behind 00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:12.560 on the car. And then I dropped from my bus. And 00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.639 as I saw him, I quickly recognized him. I recognized 00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:18.680 him by the face. And I said, oh, pastor, how 00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:21.180 are you doing? Fine. How is everything? You know, 00:02:21.180 --> 00:02:23.620 so I was like, ah, so -and -so person has told 00:02:23.620 --> 00:02:26.719 me so much about you. He was like, wow. I said, 00:02:26.740 --> 00:02:29.300 yes, sir. You know? So, and when we started talking, 00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:31.780 he now began to tell me something about humming 00:02:31.780 --> 00:02:35.599 and something about mounting. Right? The dream 00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:39.360 was so real. So real. So, but I perceived from 00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:40.960 the dream that he was trying to tell me about 00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:44.060 something. So, but as we're just talking, my 00:02:44.060 --> 00:02:47.979 driver called that let's go. And we left. And 00:02:47.979 --> 00:02:49.800 then we left them there. They also had their 00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:52.139 own journey. So, but when I woke up, I contacted 00:02:52.139 --> 00:02:54.360 that person. I said, please, what's the name 00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:56.680 of this pastor and his ministry and this and 00:02:56.680 --> 00:02:59.800 this? Details were sent to me. And then I chatted 00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:01.360 with the person. The person said, well, I have 00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:03.780 access to him. I said, okay, these are some of 00:03:03.780 --> 00:03:06.120 the things I saw. These are some of the things. 00:03:06.139 --> 00:03:08.719 But as I started chatting, I began to perceive 00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:11.280 in my heart that the Lord was bringing increase 00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:14.659 to the pastor's ministry. It was bringing increase, 00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:16.719 and at the same time, there was going to be an 00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:18.879 outburst of the things of the Spirit, healing, 00:03:19.139 --> 00:03:22.259 miracles, signs, and wonders. And when I chatted 00:03:22.259 --> 00:03:24.219 with the person, the person told me, ah, sir, 00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:27.659 in fact, this is twice now we have had about, 00:03:27.740 --> 00:03:32.479 is it 14 or 21 hours of prayers. And I told the 00:03:32.479 --> 00:03:34.719 person, I said, as I'm chatting you now, confirm 00:03:34.719 --> 00:03:37.259 from the pastor also, because this same thing 00:03:37.259 --> 00:03:39.699 I'm saying now, somebody told the pastor some 00:03:39.699 --> 00:03:42.669 days ago. Recently, Abagji, same thing. It's 00:03:42.669 --> 00:03:45.409 a confirmation. So all my chats that we chatted 00:03:45.409 --> 00:03:47.189 with the person was forwarded to the pastor. 00:03:47.430 --> 00:03:51.509 And you know, the pastor replied. And amazingly, 00:03:51.569 --> 00:03:55.789 the pastor replied and confirmed everything that 00:03:55.789 --> 00:04:02.990 I said. Every one of them. I just slept. I have 00:04:02.990 --> 00:04:06.229 not seen the person on Instagram. I didn't scroll 00:04:06.229 --> 00:04:09.340 my phone. I didn't talk with anybody. And this 00:04:09.340 --> 00:04:13.620 person is in Nigeria and I'm here. Supernatural 00:04:13.620 --> 00:04:17.959 experiences. Word of wisdom. Word of knowledge. 00:04:18.360 --> 00:04:20.079 Certain things that are going to happen, the 00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:23.560 Spirit of God will bring it to our hearts. Our 00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:27.600 eyes will see in the Spirit. Our ears will hear 00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:31.100 by the Spirit. I tell you this. I can tell you 00:04:31.100 --> 00:04:34.139 series of testimonies that have happened in just 00:04:34.139 --> 00:04:37.420 these past two weeks.

The instruction 00:04:55.790 --> 00:04:59.269 is. I have supernatural experiences. And I see 00:04:59.269 --> 00:05:01.930 more operations of the gifts of the Holy Ghost. 00:05:02.209 --> 00:05:08.839 I have supernatural experiences.

I receive instructions for my 00:06:28.699 --> 00:06:31.259 wife. I receive instructions and directions for 00:06:31.259 --> 00:06:39.959 my children. There is much more demonstrations 00:06:39.959 --> 00:07:01.879 of the geese fleets. In Jesus' name we pray. 00:07:02.980 --> 00:07:06.959 In the name of Jesus, we pray. There's a sister 00:07:06.959 --> 00:07:09.459 that used to worship with us here in this church. 00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:12.819 She was among the first people that we started 00:07:12.819 --> 00:07:15.240 the church with. But it's been a while I spoke 00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:18.800 with her. It's been a while I spoke with her. 00:07:19.399 --> 00:07:21.240 You know, that night, I don't know, I can't call 00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:23.459 it a dream, I can't call it a vision, but it 00:07:23.459 --> 00:07:27.899 was too real. I knew that this was beyond just 00:07:27.899 --> 00:07:31.629 real. You know, and I saw her in the church. 00:07:31.910 --> 00:07:35.529 She was wearing their regalia, white in the church. 00:07:35.629 --> 00:07:38.069 Everybody was wearing white clothes. But when 00:07:38.069 --> 00:07:40.629 I saw I was there and I wonder, I said, but no, 00:07:40.709 --> 00:07:43.709 why are you among these people? Because I was 00:07:43.709 --> 00:07:45.750 like, the knowledge you have, you're not supposed 00:07:45.750 --> 00:07:49.329 to be among this. But it was like, I saw manipulation. 00:07:49.850 --> 00:07:52.649 That's what I perceived in the dream. That I 00:07:52.649 --> 00:07:55.850 saw as though someone manipulated her to be in 00:07:55.850 --> 00:07:59.600 that assembly. You know, so I reached out to 00:07:59.600 --> 00:08:02.120 her and I told her, I said, how are you doing? 00:08:02.220 --> 00:08:04.519 How is the place? Which church do you worship 00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:07.639 with? She told me it's in Soso Place. And I said, 00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:10.120 perfect. I said, but this is what I had as a 00:08:10.120 --> 00:08:12.899 dream. I dreamed about this, this, this, this, 00:08:12.939 --> 00:08:16.480 this. She said, Pastor, do you know that two 00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:19.040 of these days have been having the same dream 00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:23.180 I just told you about? And when we began to talk, 00:08:23.240 --> 00:08:25.240 she began to tell me certain things. And I told 00:08:25.240 --> 00:08:27.000 her, these are some of the things I perceive 00:08:27.000 --> 00:08:30.500 by the Spirit of God. And she now had to confirm 00:08:30.500 --> 00:08:33.460 how certain people have been coming to her to 00:08:33.460 --> 00:08:38.779 talk to her about the work of ministry. And I 00:08:38.779 --> 00:08:40.700 told her, I said, okay, these are the things 00:08:40.700 --> 00:08:43.460 I perceive in my heart that you need to be careful 00:08:43.460 --> 00:08:45.580 about this. You need to be careful about this. 00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.460 You need to be careful about that. I know a whole 00:08:48.460 --> 00:08:56.600 lot.

You have been praying 00:10:02.950 --> 00:10:05.750 these past few days regarding revelation and 00:10:05.750 --> 00:10:08.730 knowledge.

That verse 00:13:35.009 --> 00:13:38.090 3 there is talking about the believer. It's talking 00:13:38.090 --> 00:13:41.240 about people that are saved. You can't say Jesus 00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:45.139 is Lord. You can't confess the Lord Jesus Christ 00:13:45.139 --> 00:13:48.559 except by the Spirit of God. And that is Romans 00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:52.740 chapter 10. Let's go to Romans chapter 10. Let's 00:13:52.740 --> 00:13:56.580 see. You can put your hand in 1 Corinthians chapter 00:13:56.580 --> 00:13:59.279 12 so that you can cross -reference this scripture 00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:02.580 verse 3. It says that no man can say that Jesus 00:14:02.580 --> 00:14:06.720 is Lord. No man can confess that Jesus is Lord 00:14:06.720 --> 00:14:10.960 by what? By what? By the Holy Ghost. 1 Corinthians 00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:16.299 chapter 3. Verse 9. Thus give thou shall confess 00:14:16.299 --> 00:14:21.200 with thy mouth. If thou shall say with thy mouth 00:14:21.200 --> 00:14:26.100 the Lord Jesus. and shall believe in thy heart 00:14:26.100 --> 00:14:30.080 that God hath raised him from the dead, thou 00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:37.799 shalt be saved. Only the man that is saved can 00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:42.159 say the Lord Jesus, can confess the Lordship 00:14:42.159 --> 00:14:46.159 of Jesus. And that happens by the Spirit of God. 00:14:46.419 --> 00:14:51.570 And we said in the last message, How did we encounter 00:14:51.570 --> 00:14:56.269 the Spirit of God at salvation? How at salvation? 00:14:56.370 --> 00:14:59.970 By the word of truth that we've heard, that is 00:14:59.970 --> 00:15:04.490 the gospel. So the hearing of the gospel, that 00:15:04.490 --> 00:15:08.809 is salvation, was that first moment where we 00:15:08.809 --> 00:15:11.850 encountered the Spirit of God. And since then, 00:15:11.970 --> 00:15:14.629 our lives never remained the same. Hallelujah. 00:15:15.169 --> 00:15:25.049 Our nature changed. See what the scripture says. 00:15:28.509 --> 00:15:39.350 That man has a regenerated spirit in the Lord. 00:15:39.889 --> 00:15:44.120 He has a new nature. And that is why when we 00:15:44.120 --> 00:15:46.759 keep reading now, it says all things are God 00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:49.399 who has reconciled us unto himself like Jesus 00:15:49.399 --> 00:15:53.860 Christ and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation. 00:15:55.179 --> 00:15:58.440 A new nature with a new assignment. Hallelujah. 00:15:59.460 --> 00:16:03.600 A new nature with a new assignment. A new nature 00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:06.919 with a new calling. A new nature that separated 00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:10.600 us from the dumb idols that we've been carried 00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:15.440 away. Our previous life. When we read Ephesians 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:19.580 chapter 2. I know these scriptures that is coming 00:16:19.580 --> 00:16:22.879 to my spirit now. We didn't read them on Sunday. 00:16:22.940 --> 00:16:27.620 But they are just popping more in my heart. Ephesians 00:16:27.620 --> 00:16:30.500 chapter 2 verse 1. He said, and you had it quickened. 00:16:30.580 --> 00:16:35.659 Who were dead in trespasses and sins. In time 00:16:35.659 --> 00:16:39.840 past, yea, walk according to the curse of this 00:16:39.840 --> 00:16:42.919 world, according to the prince of the power of 00:16:42.919 --> 00:16:46.120 the air, the spirit that now walketh in the children 00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:50.480 of disobedience, among whom also we all had a 00:16:50.480 --> 00:16:52.740 conversation in time past. Can you see? Dumb 00:16:52.740 --> 00:16:58.720 idols in the past. So the believer cannot be 00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:04.809 known again by his past nature. So how did we 00:17:04.809 --> 00:17:08.349 encounter the Holy Ghost? We encountered the 00:17:08.349 --> 00:17:11.549 Holy Ghost and salvation. How? By the hearing 00:17:11.549 --> 00:17:15.490 of the gospel. That gospel that we have heard 00:17:15.490 --> 00:17:20.710 has made us spiritual men. So we have the Spirit 00:17:20.710 --> 00:17:25.650 of God dwelling in our insides. When you say 00:17:25.650 --> 00:17:29.640 that I am spiritual, What you are saying in essence 00:17:29.640 --> 00:17:33.220 is that I have the spirit of God dwelling where? 00:17:33.359 --> 00:17:37.299 Dwelling in my inside. And we read Corinthians 00:17:37.299 --> 00:17:43.220 chapter 3 verse 16. We say you are the temple 00:17:43.220 --> 00:17:47.680 of the Holy Ghost. So the Holy Ghost dwells in 00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:52.539 our inside. Hallelujah. I don't have another 00:17:52.539 --> 00:17:57.049 type of spirit. I don't have a demon spirit. 00:17:57.490 --> 00:18:02.430 I don't have a spirit of lust. I don't have a 00:18:02.430 --> 00:18:06.789 spirit of pride. I don't have a spirit of jealousy 00:18:06.789 --> 00:18:11.130 in me. I have the spirit of the living God dwelling 00:18:11.130 --> 00:18:18.329 in my inside. See, let me set the course of our 00:18:18.329 --> 00:18:21.250 hearts in order. That you see this casatismo 00:18:21.250 --> 00:18:24.829 that is coming this year. Whatever you will do, 00:18:24.910 --> 00:18:28.009 as long as you're on this island, be part of 00:18:28.009 --> 00:18:34.329 it. I have the spirit of the living God dwells 00:18:34.329 --> 00:18:37.390 in me. And whatever you see, you see, that thing, 00:18:37.630 --> 00:18:41.109 that thing that we see in the church manifesting 00:18:41.109 --> 00:18:45.049 the kingdom of God is already powered on the 00:18:45.049 --> 00:18:52.009 spirit of God that is dwelling in us. Every manifestation, 00:18:52.369 --> 00:18:57.450 every demonstration, every oppression is powered 00:18:57.450 --> 00:19:03.730 by the Spirit of God. Which we are going to come 00:19:03.730 --> 00:19:06.089 to see in the subsequent verses we're going to 00:19:06.089 --> 00:19:09.390 read in 1 Corinthians chapter 12. So we establish 00:19:09.390 --> 00:19:14.910 in a way of introduction on Sunday about salvation, 00:19:15.130 --> 00:19:19.210 that the Holy Ghost meetings are for peace. Hallelujah. 00:19:19.950 --> 00:19:22.250 Can we have people that are unsaved come to it? 00:19:22.309 --> 00:19:24.569 Yes, we're going to come to it. Amen. But Holy 00:19:24.569 --> 00:19:27.710 Ghost meetings primarily for people that are 00:19:27.710 --> 00:19:31.329 saved. Hallelujah. Because we're going to see 00:19:31.329 --> 00:19:34.890 the word giving room and we're going to see the 00:19:34.890 --> 00:19:38.829 Holy Ghost giving room for manifestation, for 00:19:38.829 --> 00:19:41.549 demonstration and for operations. Hallelujah. 00:19:44.369 --> 00:19:46.549 So all that I've said now are the things that 00:19:46.549 --> 00:19:50.089 we discussed. On Sunday, in a way of introduction, 00:19:50.309 --> 00:19:53.670 that we are saved. We are spiritual men. The 00:19:53.670 --> 00:19:57.470 Holy Ghost walks in us when? Hallelujah. He said, 00:19:57.529 --> 00:19:59.589 now, where we read in 1 Corinthians chapter 12. 00:19:59.710 --> 00:20:04.990 He said, not tomorrow. Now, we have not received 00:20:04.990 --> 00:20:08.910 the spirit of the world. What have we received? 00:20:09.029 --> 00:20:12.529 We have received the spirit of the living God. 00:20:13.569 --> 00:20:18.339 Now. The believer's life is a current reality. 00:20:19.019 --> 00:20:22.380 Do you hear what I said? The believer's life 00:20:22.380 --> 00:20:26.279 is a current reality in Christ. It's not a past 00:20:26.279 --> 00:20:32.900 reality. Oh boy, every day our lives is a current 00:20:32.900 --> 00:20:36.960 reality in Christ Jesus. The walkings of the 00:20:36.960 --> 00:20:41.299 Holy Ghost is a current walking. That is why 00:20:41.299 --> 00:20:45.809 the believer must desire to see more. the manifestation 00:20:45.809 --> 00:20:48.170 of the things of the Holy Ghost at work in his 00:20:48.170 --> 00:20:50.789 life. Because it's a current reality. There is 00:20:50.789 --> 00:20:55.750 more in the spirit of God to experience. Our 00:20:55.750 --> 00:20:59.589 hearts must be set in order. Our hearts must 00:20:59.589 --> 00:21:02.390 be set in order. There is so much that the Holy 00:21:02.390 --> 00:21:07.349 Ghost wants to do in our lives. And let me tell 00:21:07.349 --> 00:21:10.789 us, these things can only happen in meetings. 00:21:11.210 --> 00:21:14.819 Hallelujah. These things can only happen in meetings. 00:21:15.140 --> 00:21:18.039 Let me share a testimony of Bro Gabriel. Bro 00:21:18.039 --> 00:21:22.420 Gabriel is on this platform. When he was experiencing 00:21:22.420 --> 00:21:27.319 the symptoms of some of those illnesses, his 00:21:27.319 --> 00:21:29.460 wife would tell us when she comes to church, 00:21:29.660 --> 00:21:34.440 she would say that he has mission. In fact, if 00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:36.160 you are like him, he wants to come to church. 00:21:42.990 --> 00:21:48.710 You must understand that all that God will do 00:21:48.710 --> 00:21:52.269 in your life, the training, the teachings, will 00:21:52.269 --> 00:21:54.190 happen through meetings. Let me say it again. 00:21:54.450 --> 00:21:58.150 You must understand that all that God will do, 00:21:58.230 --> 00:22:01.589 all that God will manifest, the instructions, 00:22:01.970 --> 00:22:05.470 the growth, the directions, the clarity, will 00:22:05.470 --> 00:22:09.190 happen through meetings. The trainings will happen 00:22:09.190 --> 00:22:12.380 through meetings. The growth will happen through 00:22:12.380 --> 00:22:15.460 meetings. The manifestations will happen through 00:22:15.460 --> 00:22:21.660 meetings. I will not have you ignorant, my brethren. 00:22:21.880 --> 00:22:26.480 Do not despise meetings. We are who we are today 00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:31.579 because of meetings. Bro Victor will shout that. 00:22:32.359 --> 00:22:35.799 All the pastors will shout that. Every one of 00:22:35.799 --> 00:22:40.769 us will shout that. We are who we are today as 00:22:40.769 --> 00:22:47.730 a result of what? Meetings. I remember my mom, 00:22:47.769 --> 00:22:52.289 oh boy, my mom would force us to go to vigils. 00:22:53.650 --> 00:22:56.930 She does not care whether you will go. I have 00:22:56.930 --> 00:22:59.910 one picture somewhere here among my album. I 00:22:59.910 --> 00:23:02.509 shared it some time ago. My mom gave me her story, 00:23:02.569 --> 00:23:05.930 one big Bible. The Bible is bigger than me. One 00:23:05.930 --> 00:23:09.380 big Bible. And we touch like you see me. You 00:23:09.380 --> 00:23:15.559 know, I held a big Bible and we touch like. Brethren, 00:23:15.660 --> 00:23:19.740 in that vigil, I slept all through. But we're 00:23:19.740 --> 00:23:22.880 still there. She would tell the brothers when 00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:24.500 they are going, when she cannot go. She said, 00:23:24.519 --> 00:23:26.480 please, can you branch and take my children to 00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:28.420 vigil? Don't worry. Any minute they are going 00:23:28.420 --> 00:23:30.440 to sleep, let them sleep there. In the morning, 00:23:30.539 --> 00:23:33.700 drag them back. Some vigils, we don't know what 00:23:33.700 --> 00:23:36.440 was happening, what they did there. I know the 00:23:36.440 --> 00:23:39.599 church is big. So you actually even went there 00:23:39.599 --> 00:23:43.160 angrily, you know. So when people are praying, 00:23:43.380 --> 00:23:47.039 you are at the back sleeping. So sometimes they 00:23:47.039 --> 00:23:48.680 will remember that you are sleeping. They will 00:23:48.680 --> 00:23:50.720 just come around. I know Pastor Victor is smiling. 00:23:50.859 --> 00:23:52.880 He must have had a similar experience, you know. 00:23:53.079 --> 00:23:55.640 So they will come and drag you. You know, you 00:23:55.640 --> 00:23:57.940 will go around. They will just pray, pray, pray, 00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:00.019 pray. Before they knew, you will sneak again. 00:24:02.990 --> 00:24:07.289 But let me tell you, let me say this. You see, 00:24:07.329 --> 00:24:10.049 with the Holy Ghost, even if you don't know the 00:24:10.049 --> 00:24:14.690 value of a meeting, He will ensure that that 00:24:14.690 --> 00:24:19.410 knowledge catches with you in the future. So 00:24:19.410 --> 00:24:22.650 some things will be illogical, but with time, 00:24:22.650 --> 00:24:25.049 the Holy Spirit will make it logical to your 00:24:25.049 --> 00:24:29.190 mind. Do you hear what I said? Some things will 00:24:29.190 --> 00:24:32.410 be what? Will be illogical to you now. But as 00:24:32.410 --> 00:24:34.970 you continue to grow, as the Holy Ghost continues 00:24:34.970 --> 00:24:37.349 to ensure that you are being trained in church 00:24:37.349 --> 00:24:40.150 meetings, in gatherings, they will start getting 00:24:40.150 --> 00:24:48.940 logical to your mind. So these things, these 00:24:48.940 --> 00:24:52.619 experiences are experiences happening to men 00:24:52.619 --> 00:24:54.880 that have the Holy Ghost in their inside. Hallelujah. 00:24:55.079 --> 00:24:58.240 So one of the things we established on Sunday 00:24:58.240 --> 00:25:01.279 is that Holy Ghost meetings are for spiritual 00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:04.200 men. And what do we mean by spiritual men? Men 00:25:04.200 --> 00:25:07.099 that are saved. Men that have the Spirit of God 00:25:07.099 --> 00:25:12.839 dwelling in their inside. As we began to read, 00:25:13.039 --> 00:25:17.559 we said that again. That God's will has been 00:25:17.559 --> 00:25:21.099 that his people will always be gathered before 00:25:21.099 --> 00:25:25.940 him. God's will has been that his mind will be 00:25:25.940 --> 00:25:30.700 revealed to his people in gatherings. God's will 00:25:30.700 --> 00:25:34.700 has been that his people will be trained in gatherings. 00:25:34.859 --> 00:25:38.039 That is why Pastor Victor shouted, you cannot 00:25:38.039 --> 00:25:42.329 be built or built in isolation. You can't say 00:25:42.329 --> 00:25:45.730 that my Holy Spirit is special. No, we have received 00:25:45.730 --> 00:25:48.309 common spirit. We have received common faith. 00:25:48.509 --> 00:25:51.109 We have received common gospel. We have received 00:25:51.109 --> 00:25:57.750 common gifts. Hallelujah. So we began to read 00:25:57.750 --> 00:26:01.130 from Exodus. We began to read all through to 00:26:01.130 --> 00:26:04.329 trace and see how God's will has been for his 00:26:04.329 --> 00:26:07.390 people. It has been in gatherings and meetings. 00:26:10.220 --> 00:26:12.500 Can you just add these two chapters of the Old 00:26:12.500 --> 00:26:15.960 Testament that we've read? Let's read 2 Kings 00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:20.960 chapter 23. Oh, glory, glory, glory, glory, glory. 00:26:23.240 --> 00:26:33.880 2 Kings 23. Desire the things of the Spirit. 00:26:34.380 --> 00:26:38.160 Desire supernatural experiences. Desire to see... 00:26:38.440 --> 00:26:40.599 The Holy Ghost manifests much more through your 00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:47.380 life. 2 Kings 23, verse 1. And the king sent, 00:26:47.700 --> 00:26:51.480 and they gathered. Can you see? If it's your 00:26:51.480 --> 00:26:56.180 Bible. And they gathered unto him all the elders 00:26:56.180 --> 00:27:02.329 of Judah and of Jerusalem. And the king went 00:27:02.329 --> 00:27:06.410 up into the house of the Lord, and all the men 00:27:06.410 --> 00:27:09.349 of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem 00:27:09.349 --> 00:27:13.690 were with him. And the priests and the prophets 00:27:13.690 --> 00:27:16.869 and all the people, both small and great, and 00:27:16.869 --> 00:27:21.730 he read in their ears. Hallelujah. He read in 00:27:21.730 --> 00:27:25.069 their ears all the words of the book of the covenant 00:27:25.069 --> 00:27:29.829 which was found in the house of the Lord. And 00:27:29.829 --> 00:27:32.130 the king stood by a pillar and made a covenant 00:27:32.130 --> 00:27:34.549 before the Lord, walked after the Lord, and to 00:27:34.549 --> 00:27:37.130 keep his commandments and his testimonies and 00:27:37.130 --> 00:27:42.829 his acts with all their heart and with all their 00:27:42.829 --> 00:27:46.799 soul. to perform the words of this covenant that 00:27:46.799 --> 00:27:49.759 were written in this book. And all the people 00:27:49.759 --> 00:27:57.160 stood to us to the covenant. Did it happen with 00:27:57.160 --> 00:28:01.619 everybody in their houses? No. How did it happen? 00:28:01.779 --> 00:28:06.079 All the house of Judah, all the people of Jerusalem 00:28:06.079 --> 00:28:09.359 were what? Were gathered before the Lord in the 00:28:09.359 --> 00:28:13.920 temple. so that the words of the covenant can 00:28:13.920 --> 00:28:31.259 be read into their ears. Where do believers learn 00:28:31.259 --> 00:28:37.119 how to obey God? In meetings. Where do they hear? 00:28:38.290 --> 00:28:42.009 about the instructions from the mind of God in 00:28:42.009 --> 00:28:45.210 meetings. See, nobody should undermine meeting. 00:28:45.470 --> 00:28:49.230 Don't ever be among people that undermine believers' 00:28:49.529 --> 00:28:55.289 meetings. When they say, you, eh, you, eh, it's 00:28:55.289 --> 00:29:00.650 your church. Tell them, this church, church, 00:29:00.650 --> 00:29:03.849 church, church, church, church, is what has made 00:29:03.849 --> 00:29:06.150 my life better, better, better, better, better. 00:29:11.880 --> 00:29:15.180 I remember one guy, we grew up doing Sunday school. 00:29:16.579 --> 00:29:20.019 Then, I would drive around with my mom's car, 00:29:20.140 --> 00:29:24.279 and then he saw me one day, he just came, he 00:29:24.279 --> 00:29:27.579 said, he said, you, eh, they used to call me 00:29:27.579 --> 00:29:31.720 Wadi at home. You know? And then, he said, you, 00:29:31.799 --> 00:29:34.099 I don't understand. You know, you people, this 00:29:34.099 --> 00:29:36.400 same person with this Sunday school, see his 00:29:36.400 --> 00:29:38.480 statement. He said, you know, you people are 00:29:38.480 --> 00:29:40.119 doing church, church, same guy with this Sunday 00:29:40.119 --> 00:29:42.529 school. He said, you people are doing cho -chos. 00:29:42.690 --> 00:29:46.710 You know, we now, things have changed. And I 00:29:46.710 --> 00:29:49.309 said, Abek, can you just find me something there? 00:29:51.730 --> 00:29:54.670 You see now, you are driving car around. I say, 00:29:54.750 --> 00:29:57.269 you see this car? The owner of the car just gave 00:29:57.269 --> 00:30:00.049 me the key. She foils it. She put everything. 00:30:00.769 --> 00:30:06.089 It's not my car. His mouth is already black. 00:30:06.670 --> 00:30:08.829 When I say black, you should already know. The 00:30:08.829 --> 00:30:10.930 Lord will give you understanding. His mouth is 00:30:10.930 --> 00:30:17.509 already black. His eyes very red. He needs the 00:30:17.509 --> 00:30:21.730 next 20 nera so that he can smoke his lungs away. 00:30:24.549 --> 00:30:28.089 Let me tell you, this same chore, chore, chore, 00:30:28.150 --> 00:30:30.730 chore that he said we have been doing is where 00:30:30.730 --> 00:30:34.470 we are now. We is where we are. That same... 00:30:34.839 --> 00:30:38.799 that they refuse to do is where they are now. 00:30:39.299 --> 00:30:45.680 I returned home in 2022 after eight years. Do 00:30:45.680 --> 00:30:49.960 you know that I saw these boys on that same place 00:30:49.960 --> 00:30:59.859 where they drink local beers? Same place. That 00:30:59.859 --> 00:31:03.380 is after almost 12 years, 13 years or 14 years. 00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:09.579 These guys are still on that same place. Let 00:31:09.579 --> 00:31:14.339 me say this. Nobody ever, nobody ever stands 00:31:14.339 --> 00:31:18.799 with Jesus. Nobody ever gives his best for Jesus. 00:31:19.039 --> 00:31:24.440 And Jesus sees his life to be a waste. Never. 00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:30.359 It will never be said of you. That because you 00:31:30.359 --> 00:31:34.180 gave yourself for Christ. See let me tell you. 00:31:34.279 --> 00:31:38.559 Let me say this now. God has already sealed it. 00:31:38.680 --> 00:31:40.900 By the gift of the Holy Ghost in your heart. 00:31:41.099 --> 00:31:46.980 That your life can never be a waste. If you need 00:31:46.980 --> 00:31:50.420 an evidence. Hold this as an evidence. That God 00:31:50.420 --> 00:31:53.740 has sealed it. That your life can never amount. 00:31:54.059 --> 00:31:56.400 See, you know when they say, no, no, no, no, 00:31:56.400 --> 00:31:58.119 no, no, you're going to be a waste. They just 00:31:58.119 --> 00:32:05.660 give me some time. That is the evidence we have. 00:32:08.019 --> 00:32:17.549 So, God's might has always been revealed. Let's 00:32:17.549 --> 00:32:19.410 just write this down, please. You can add it 00:32:19.410 --> 00:32:22.210 as an extra scripture. Chronicles, 2 Chronicles 00:32:22.210 --> 00:32:29.430 15, verse 9 to 15. 2 Chronicles 15, verse 9 to 00:32:29.430 --> 00:32:40.289 15. Luke 4, verse 16. Luke 4, verse 16.

See what the scripture says. And he came 00:33:00.940 --> 00:33:04.440 to Nazareth and Jesus came to Nazareth where 00:33:04.440 --> 00:33:09.160 he had been brought up and as his custom was. 00:33:11.140 --> 00:33:17.039 Can it be said about you that Attending believers' 00:33:17.299 --> 00:33:20.579 meetings is your custom. Hallelujah. It's your 00:33:20.579 --> 00:33:25.619 custom. As his custom was, he went into the synagogue 00:33:25.619 --> 00:33:33.859 on the Sabbath day and stood up to read. I was 00:33:33.859 --> 00:33:37.140 glad when they said to me, let us go to where? 00:33:37.299 --> 00:33:41.940 Let us go to the house of the Lord. As his custom 00:33:41.940 --> 00:33:45.509 was. He went to the synagogue. As his custom 00:33:45.509 --> 00:33:48.869 was. Please was always in the church. Or is always 00:33:48.869 --> 00:33:52.509 in the church. As his custom is.

That 00:34:10.269 --> 00:34:13.849 he was always in the synagogue. Can you see? 00:34:14.010 --> 00:34:17.690 God's wings. Even Christ was always in God's 00:34:17.690 --> 00:34:29.409 wings. Luke 24. Luke 24, verse 33. And they rose 00:34:29.409 --> 00:34:33.510 up together. Luke 24, verse 33. And they rose 00:34:33.510 --> 00:34:37.590 up the same hour and returned to Jerusalem and 00:34:37.590 --> 00:34:42.530 found the 11 guard up together. Hallelujah.

The testimonies 00:34:57.030 --> 00:34:59.530 of Christ are always shared among believers in 00:34:59.530 --> 00:35:04.429 meetings. And when we continue reading, we will 00:35:04.429 --> 00:35:08.630 see that Christ made them gather together. He 00:35:08.630 --> 00:35:11.929 expanded the scripture and taught there for 40 00:35:11.929 --> 00:35:21.690 days. In where? In meetings. In meetings.

They were all gathered 00:37:29.320 --> 00:37:34.099 together in one place. The same thing we see 00:37:34.099 --> 00:37:37.199 in Acts chapter 1 verse 14. They all continued 00:37:37.199 --> 00:37:42.639 together in oneness in prayer and supplication 00:37:42.639 --> 00:37:45.980 with the webed and many the brother of Jesus 00:37:45.980 --> 00:37:49.639 and with the brethren.

And they continue 00:38:08.909 --> 00:38:13.150 in daily together in one accord in the temple 00:38:13.150 --> 00:38:16.269 and breaking bread from one house to another. 00:38:17.039 --> 00:38:19.980 did eat their meat with gladness and singleness 00:38:19.980 --> 00:38:24.980 of heart, praising God and having fervor with 00:38:24.980 --> 00:38:28.260 all the people, as the Lord added to the church. 00:38:28.500 --> 00:38:31.019 If you are like me, you can say, as the Lord 00:38:31.019 --> 00:38:34.260 added to the caverns of the believers, daily 00:38:34.260 --> 00:38:39.860 sought as he should be seen. The caverns of the 00:38:39.860 --> 00:38:43.400 believers. Where will the Lord bring increase 00:38:43.400 --> 00:38:48.139 in meetings? Where will the Lord bring multiplication? 00:38:48.559 --> 00:38:53.380 In meetings.

Ephesians chapter 00:42:31.579 --> 00:42:38.900 4, verse 11 to 13, the gifts are for meetings. 00:42:40.820 --> 00:42:44.119 Pastors for meetings, apostles for meetings, 00:42:44.400 --> 00:42:47.719 evangelists for meetings, prophets for meetings. 00:42:50.619 --> 00:42:55.119 Philippians chapter 1, verse 27, meetings, gatherings. 00:43:02.380 --> 00:43:05.159 Only let your conversation be as it becomes the 00:43:05.159 --> 00:43:07.820 gospel of Christ, that whether I come and see 00:43:07.820 --> 00:43:12.739 you or else be absent, I hear of your affairs, 00:43:12.860 --> 00:43:17.199 that you stand together in one spirit, with one 00:43:17.199 --> 00:43:20.579 mind, striving together for the faith of the 00:43:20.579 --> 00:43:27.480 gospel. So we could see. Or we can see from all 00:43:27.480 --> 00:43:30.599 the scriptures. They guard us for prayers. They 00:43:30.599 --> 00:43:33.059 guard us for teachings. They guard us for preaching. 00:43:33.760 --> 00:43:36.599 They guard us for evangelisms. Let me say it 00:43:36.599 --> 00:43:40.119 again. They guard us for prayers. They guard 00:43:40.119 --> 00:43:42.619 us for teachings. They guard us for preaching. 00:43:42.920 --> 00:43:45.860 They guard us for evangelisms. They guard us 00:43:45.860 --> 00:43:49.659 for fellowships and communions. Let me say it 00:43:49.659 --> 00:43:52.400 again. They guard us for prayers. They guard 00:43:52.400 --> 00:43:54.780 us for teachings. They guard us for preaching. 00:43:55.400 --> 00:43:57.760 They gathered for communions and fellowships. 00:43:57.760 --> 00:44:05.400 They gathered for evangelisms. Meetings. Meetings. 00:44:06.219 --> 00:44:10.840 So the way you see and participate in meetings 00:44:10.840 --> 00:44:15.480 shows how you are growing. Your desire, your 00:44:15.480 --> 00:44:18.840 passion, your commitment to believers' gatherings 00:44:18.840 --> 00:44:26.579 shows how you are growing. So why do we need 00:44:26.579 --> 00:44:32.219 meetings? Why should we identify meetings? Why 00:44:32.219 --> 00:44:36.280 should we identify meetings? Simple answer. So 00:44:36.280 --> 00:44:38.619 that we can know how to conduct ourselves in 00:44:38.619 --> 00:44:42.840 those meetings. Please hold this sentence that 00:44:42.840 --> 00:44:46.079 I just said now with treasure because this is 00:44:46.079 --> 00:44:48.340 the sentence we're going to operate with instructions. 00:44:49.039 --> 00:44:53.019 Why do we need to identify different meetings? 00:44:53.929 --> 00:44:57.489 Simple answer. So that we can know how to behave 00:44:57.489 --> 00:45:01.289 and conduct ourselves in the different meetings. 00:45:05.429 --> 00:45:27.599 Let's start reading from verse... 14, yes. These 00:45:27.599 --> 00:45:30.940 days I write unto you, hope it to come unto you 00:45:30.940 --> 00:45:34.460 shortly. See verse 15, everybody. But if I tarry 00:45:34.460 --> 00:45:39.760 long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest 00:45:39.760 --> 00:45:45.440 to do it, please. 1 Timothy 3, verse 14. Let's 00:45:45.440 --> 00:45:49.980 read verse 15. But if I tarry long, and that 00:45:49.980 --> 00:45:55.380 thou mayest know how thou oughtest to do it, 00:45:58.090 --> 00:46:01.809 to be his, to conduct, thank you Pastor Victor 00:46:01.809 --> 00:46:05.809 for that word, to conduct yourselves in the house 00:46:05.809 --> 00:46:08.550 of God, which is the church of the living God, 00:46:08.710 --> 00:46:13.159 the pillar and the ground of truth. There is 00:46:13.159 --> 00:46:17.340 a way the believer must conduct himself in the 00:46:17.340 --> 00:46:21.619 house of God. So the believer knows every time 00:46:21.619 --> 00:46:24.780 I'm coming to church, I am coming to the pillar 00:46:24.780 --> 00:46:28.039 and the ground of truth. I am not coming to some 00:46:28.039 --> 00:46:31.000 form of club. I am not coming to some form of 00:46:31.000 --> 00:46:34.380 comedy platform. I am coming to an atmosphere 00:46:34.380 --> 00:46:38.889 where I am going to be taught a trade. He says 00:46:38.889 --> 00:46:42.469 you should know how to conduct yourself, even 00:46:42.469 --> 00:46:48.690 in my essence. Hallelujah. So why should we identify 00:46:48.690 --> 00:46:51.590 meetings? So that we can know how to conduct 00:46:51.590 --> 00:46:57.409 ourselves. Do you know that there are certain 00:46:57.409 --> 00:46:59.250 meetings? If you don't know the meetings, your 00:46:59.250 --> 00:47:03.449 participation is not effective. And because your 00:47:03.449 --> 00:47:06.969 participation is not effective, certain things 00:47:06.969 --> 00:47:12.610 you're going to miss out on those meetings. So 00:47:12.610 --> 00:47:14.829 there's a way we need to conduct ourselves in 00:47:14.829 --> 00:47:20.110 meetings. There's a manner that we need to conduct 00:47:20.110 --> 00:47:24.190 ourselves in meetings. So there's a way that 00:47:24.190 --> 00:47:26.909 we need to jump into the meetings. There's a 00:47:26.909 --> 00:47:29.849 posture. There's a posture. There's a posture. 00:47:29.949 --> 00:47:32.369 Every time we are coming, there's a posture. 00:47:35.769 --> 00:47:39.650 So we learn how to behave in the household of 00:47:39.650 --> 00:47:43.849 God from the church. We learn how to do things 00:47:43.849 --> 00:47:51.710 in the church, in meetings. All that we've listened. 00:47:52.159 --> 00:47:54.440 from all that we've read, from all that we've 00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:59.019 seen scripturally. You can write this for topic 00:47:59.019 --> 00:48:03.460 now. Different kinds of meetings. Different kinds 00:48:03.460 --> 00:48:14.800 of meetings. Different kinds of meetings. I know 00:48:14.800 --> 00:48:17.619 this teaching by the Spirit of God is going to 00:48:17.619 --> 00:48:20.590 bring so much revelational knowledge to us. And 00:48:20.590 --> 00:48:23.050 it's going to change how we participate in meetings. 00:48:23.949 --> 00:48:26.449 It's going to change when we come to church meetings. 00:48:26.710 --> 00:48:29.550 It's going to change how we behave, how we conduct 00:48:29.550 --> 00:48:31.610 ourselves. I know this by the Spirit of God. 00:48:33.429 --> 00:48:38.050 Number one meeting. Number one. The very frequent 00:48:38.050 --> 00:48:42.150 meetings that we always have is the teaching 00:48:42.150 --> 00:48:50.280 meetings. Teaching meetings. You see, all the 00:48:50.280 --> 00:48:52.880 things that we're going to discuss are all from 00:48:52.880 --> 00:48:54.579 the scriptures we have read and where we are 00:48:54.579 --> 00:49:00.199 coming from. The very frequent meetings that 00:49:00.199 --> 00:49:02.500 we always have at what? At teaching meetings. 00:49:02.599 --> 00:49:06.559 So teaching meetings are always and must always 00:49:06.559 --> 00:49:12.340 be the frequent meetings we have. Teaching meetings. 00:49:13.769 --> 00:49:18.829 And are always and must always be the frequent 00:49:18.829 --> 00:49:22.690 meetings we should always have. Please, don't 00:49:22.690 --> 00:49:27.750 ever get tired of teaching meetings. They are 00:49:27.750 --> 00:49:30.670 always the frequent meetings that we should have. 00:49:30.869 --> 00:49:33.670 They must always be the frequent meetings we 00:49:33.670 --> 00:49:39.829 must have. Always. Because teaching meetings... 00:49:40.500 --> 00:49:42.960 produces all the kinds of other meetings we're 00:49:42.960 --> 00:49:48.619 going to talk about. Let me put this. Put premium 00:49:48.619 --> 00:49:52.679 priority on teaching meetings. Please, I beg 00:49:52.679 --> 00:49:55.500 you. If you are listening to me, are you on this 00:49:55.500 --> 00:49:59.099 platform? Put premium. You say, oh, this church, 00:49:59.159 --> 00:50:02.579 eh? You know, we are always having teaching, 00:50:02.639 --> 00:50:04.179 teaching, teaching, teaching, teaching, teaching, 00:50:04.239 --> 00:50:08.739 teaching, teaching. Godda, if you don't, let's 00:50:08.739 --> 00:50:13.179 move. You understand this thing that I held in 00:50:13.179 --> 00:50:16.099 my mouth now that I did not say very soon. Let's 00:50:16.099 --> 00:50:20.920 just move it now. So these meetings are the primary 00:50:20.920 --> 00:50:24.840 meetings that must always be found in local church. 00:50:25.780 --> 00:50:28.480 They are the primary meetings that must always 00:50:28.480 --> 00:50:33.159 be found where? In local church. Let me tell 00:50:33.159 --> 00:50:34.860 you this now. Something came to my head now. 00:50:34.920 --> 00:50:38.179 I just got an answer for somebody now. How do 00:50:38.179 --> 00:50:42.159 I identify a local church I should be part of? 00:50:42.380 --> 00:50:45.280 Number one, this answers your question now. Somebody 00:50:45.280 --> 00:50:47.159 came to this platform with this question, and 00:50:47.159 --> 00:50:50.539 this is the answer. How do I identify a local 00:50:50.539 --> 00:50:54.980 church to be part of for my growth? Number one, 00:50:54.980 --> 00:51:00.059 look out that that church gives premium so much 00:51:00.059 --> 00:51:04.619 effort to teachings. They don't joke with teachings 00:51:04.619 --> 00:51:06.960 of God's word. They don't joke with the doctrine 00:51:06.960 --> 00:51:13.820 of Christ. Teaching services. So in teaching 00:51:13.820 --> 00:51:16.380 meetings, what happens? In teaching meetings, 00:51:16.539 --> 00:51:19.179 what happens? In teaching meetings, what happens 00:51:19.179 --> 00:51:23.820 is that we come around to hear God's word. We 00:51:23.820 --> 00:51:27.500 come around to hear God's word. We come around 00:51:27.500 --> 00:51:31.119 for biblical doctrine, to be taught and trained 00:51:31.119 --> 00:51:34.420 in biblical doctrine, the doctrine of Christ. 00:51:36.239 --> 00:51:39.780 In teaching meetings, we come to study. You see, 00:51:39.840 --> 00:51:42.380 we've been moving from one scripture to another, 00:51:42.639 --> 00:51:46.219 to another, to another. This is teaching meeting. 00:51:47.460 --> 00:51:51.130 So in teaching meetings, What happens? We come 00:51:51.130 --> 00:51:55.809 around to hear God's word. We come around and 00:51:55.809 --> 00:51:59.010 we are taught and trained in biblical doctrine. 00:51:59.690 --> 00:52:04.650 Doctrine of who? Doctrine of Christ. We come 00:52:04.650 --> 00:52:08.610 to study God's word. We move from one scripture 00:52:08.610 --> 00:52:11.789 to another. We move from one scripture to another. 00:52:13.550 --> 00:52:17.269 We look into different texts. We move from one 00:52:17.269 --> 00:52:20.849 text. We move to Genesis. We go to Exodus. We 00:52:20.849 --> 00:52:24.170 move to Jeremiah. We go to Psalms. We go to Isaiah. 00:52:24.590 --> 00:52:28.369 We move to Matthew. We go to Luke. We go to Acts. 00:52:28.489 --> 00:52:31.789 We go to Romans. We go to Revelation. We come 00:52:31.789 --> 00:52:35.610 to 1 John. We go to 2 John. We go to 3 John. 00:52:35.789 --> 00:52:41.170 We move from one scripture to another. That is 00:52:41.170 --> 00:52:48.980 what we find in teaching meetings. In these meetings, 00:52:49.199 --> 00:52:52.099 we have a subject. We are taught on subjects. 00:52:53.900 --> 00:53:00.420 We study it. We study it. We study it. When I 00:53:00.420 --> 00:53:08.300 was on campus, I used to attend a church. Let 00:53:08.300 --> 00:53:10.360 me say it this way now, because I have knowledge. 00:53:10.699 --> 00:53:13.699 I believe the Holy Spirit led our path to that 00:53:13.699 --> 00:53:17.440 church. However... We attended that church with 00:53:17.440 --> 00:53:19.239 the wrong motive because, you know, in the universities, 00:53:19.239 --> 00:53:22.239 students, they are looking for sharp, sharp church. 00:53:22.820 --> 00:53:26.380 You know, sharp, sharp church. Let me use this 00:53:26.380 --> 00:53:29.380 word. Probably some of us, we are looking for 00:53:29.380 --> 00:53:33.719 hit and run church. You know, hit and run. We're 00:53:33.719 --> 00:53:35.360 looking for those churches that are hit and run. 00:53:35.679 --> 00:53:41.860 Sniper churches. 30 minutes, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 00:53:41.920 --> 00:53:48.960 25 minutes of work and we are out. First service, 00:53:49.119 --> 00:53:51.460 second service, third service, fourth service, 00:53:51.679 --> 00:53:54.320 fifth service, sixth service, for 35 minutes 00:53:54.320 --> 00:53:58.219 each, for 35 minutes. We're looking for sniper 00:53:58.219 --> 00:54:04.159 move kind of atmosphere. You know why? Because 00:54:04.159 --> 00:54:10.280 already our CGPA has sniped us. You know, so 00:54:10.280 --> 00:54:12.099 we're looking for where we'll just have it fast 00:54:12.099 --> 00:54:15.880 and return back to the class. And then we now 00:54:15.880 --> 00:54:19.539 heard that there is one church. You know? Let 00:54:19.539 --> 00:54:21.139 me say the church because the church has built 00:54:21.139 --> 00:54:25.719 us. Called the Oasis of Love Church. So, all 00:54:25.719 --> 00:54:28.079 of us entered the bus and then carried ourselves 00:54:28.079 --> 00:54:30.940 there. We didn't want to stay. One of the churches 00:54:30.940 --> 00:54:32.500 where we used to attend, Pastor Victor knows 00:54:32.500 --> 00:54:38.460 it. You know? We didn't want to stay in the chapel 00:54:38.460 --> 00:54:42.239 because the church... So, you know? Thank you, 00:54:42.280 --> 00:54:43.940 Pastor Victor. Pastor Fred said, our lives cannot 00:54:43.940 --> 00:54:48.429 be built on heat around church model. Yes. Let 00:54:48.429 --> 00:54:51.510 me say that. Let me say that. Our lives will 00:54:51.510 --> 00:54:55.510 be built on stay and wait model kind of churches. 00:54:57.630 --> 00:55:01.730 Stay and what? Stay and wait model kind of churches. 00:55:03.110 --> 00:55:06.449 So we ran away. We went there. And that was where, 00:55:06.530 --> 00:55:09.690 for the first time, I began to hear about Kenneth 00:55:09.690 --> 00:55:14.050 Hagin. I began to hear about faith. Our pastor. 00:55:15.480 --> 00:55:17.579 Pastor, I will call his name because he is a 00:55:17.579 --> 00:55:22.400 great man. Pastor Tendi. Sir, we will take only 00:55:22.400 --> 00:55:26.320 faith. They will say, the theme for the teaching, 00:55:26.519 --> 00:55:30.000 for the coming, he always use this word, the 00:55:30.000 --> 00:55:34.119 theme for the coming Sundays is faith. We will 00:55:34.119 --> 00:55:38.099 teach faith for 10 months. See, you will hear 00:55:38.099 --> 00:55:41.300 faith. That faith will enter your DNA. It will 00:55:41.300 --> 00:55:45.119 enter your brain. It will enter your body. Have 00:55:45.119 --> 00:55:48.099 you ever been taught to the point that the message 00:55:48.099 --> 00:55:51.400 you were enjoying it, it became bitter, it started 00:55:51.400 --> 00:55:54.960 getting sweeter, it started, you now are growing 00:55:54.960 --> 00:55:57.639 in it, you are moving in it, you are building 00:55:57.639 --> 00:56:02.460 faith and you are moving. So you see, teaching 00:56:02.460 --> 00:56:06.900 meetings are not hit and run meetings. Teaching 00:56:06.900 --> 00:56:11.539 meetings are meetings where you are built solidly 00:56:11.539 --> 00:56:37.480 on God's word. So in teaching meetings, God communicates 00:56:37.480 --> 00:56:45.619 his plans. He communicates his purposes. Do you 00:56:45.619 --> 00:56:47.840 hear what I said? In 2 Timothy, God does what? 00:56:47.940 --> 00:56:50.320 He communicates His plans. He communicates His 00:56:50.320 --> 00:56:57.059 purposes to us. So now, let's look at scriptures 00:56:57.059 --> 00:57:00.340 now so that we can build on that. Genesis 18, 00:57:00.679 --> 00:57:06.519 verse 19. Genesis 18, verse 19. So you see how 00:57:06.519 --> 00:57:10.099 we are building upon precepts, upon precepts. 00:57:12.650 --> 00:57:17.809 Is not happening haphazardly. Genesis. Chapter 00:57:17.809 --> 00:57:27.309 what? Chapter 18 verse 19. For I know him. God 00:57:27.309 --> 00:57:29.989 was talking about Abraham now. For I know he. 00:57:30.389 --> 00:57:34.750 That he will command his children. He will teach. 00:57:35.500 --> 00:57:40.320 his children, and his household after him, and 00:57:40.320 --> 00:57:45.300 they shall keep the way of the Lord. These things 00:57:45.300 --> 00:57:48.860 come to us so that we can know how to walk with 00:57:48.860 --> 00:57:53.679 the Lord. They will keep the way of the Lord 00:57:53.679 --> 00:57:57.500 to do justice and judgment that the Lord will 00:57:57.500 --> 00:58:01.559 bring upon Abraham that he has spoken of to him. 00:58:01.820 --> 00:58:09.289 Hallelujah. These are the things that come to 00:58:09.289 --> 00:58:15.349 establish us, that we may know how to walk with 00:58:15.349 --> 00:58:21.329 the Lord. You know, one of the sisters, I shared 00:58:21.329 --> 00:58:25.050 a testimony just some minutes ago when I began 00:58:25.050 --> 00:58:30.329 sharing the testimony. Just send a message, which 00:58:30.329 --> 00:58:31.949 I know I will share it in the next teaching. 00:58:32.909 --> 00:58:37.329 When I have opportunity. Genesis 18, 19 says, 00:58:37.469 --> 00:58:40.250 God was saying, I know he will do what? He will 00:58:40.250 --> 00:58:45.769 command his children. Hallelujah. How beautiful 00:58:45.769 --> 00:58:49.329 it is that when you find a local church such 00:58:49.329 --> 00:58:54.230 as NECF and you know you will be taught the way 00:58:54.230 --> 00:59:04.360 of the Lord. Exodus 19, verse 7 to 8. We serve 00:59:04.360 --> 00:59:08.019 upon precepts about teaching. Exodus 19, verse 00:59:08.019 --> 00:59:34.809 7 to 8. We will do as Moses returned the words 00:59:34.809 --> 00:59:40.010 of the people unto the Lord. Hallelujah. In that 00:59:40.010 --> 00:59:43.710 means, they heard the word of the Lord and proclaimed, 00:59:44.230 --> 00:59:47.989 we will do all that the Lord requires of us. 00:59:48.690 --> 00:59:56.110 In meetings. Exodus 24, 3 to 8. Exodus 24, 3 00:59:56.110 --> 01:00:02.119 to 8. And Moses came and told the people all 01:00:02.119 --> 01:00:05.420 the words of the Lord and all the judgments and 01:00:05.420 --> 01:00:09.420 all the people answered with one voice and said, 01:00:09.599 --> 01:00:14.739 All the words which the Lord has spoken, we will 01:00:14.739 --> 01:00:21.739 what? We will do. Hallelujah. We know how to 01:00:21.739 --> 01:00:24.780 walk with the Lord from teaching meetings. We 01:00:24.780 --> 01:00:27.420 are taught how to walk with the Lord from teaching 01:00:27.420 --> 01:00:30.860 meetings. We know the ways of the Lord through 01:00:30.860 --> 01:00:47.460 teaching me things. And that ye may teach the 01:00:47.460 --> 01:00:51.599 children of Israel all the statutes which the 01:00:51.599 --> 01:00:54.980 Lord has spoken unto them by the hand of Moses. 01:00:57.929 --> 01:01:01.409 And thou shalt teach the children of Israel. 01:01:01.989 --> 01:01:05.230 And thou shalt teach the children of Israel. 01:01:05.769 --> 01:01:08.329 When you teach them, what will happen today? 01:01:09.809 --> 01:01:12.769 And Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eliezer, 01:01:12.929 --> 01:01:15.550 and unto Itamar, his sons that were left, take 01:01:15.550 --> 01:01:17.969 the meat offering, remember the offerings of 01:01:17.969 --> 01:01:20.230 the Lord made by fire, and eat it without a living 01:01:20.230 --> 01:01:23.489 beside the altar, for it is most holy. And from 01:01:23.489 --> 01:01:28.420 there he began his kingdom. Deuteronomy chapter 01:01:28.420 --> 01:01:38.699 4 verse 10. Deuteronomy chapter 4 verse 10. Deuteronomy 01:01:38.699 --> 01:01:53.679 chapter 4 verse 10. Especially. Okay, yes. Especially 01:01:53.679 --> 01:01:57.440 the day. Especially the day that thou stood before 01:01:57.440 --> 01:02:00.519 the Lord thy God in Horeb, when the Lord said 01:02:00.519 --> 01:02:03.800 unto thee, Gather me these people together, and 01:02:03.800 --> 01:02:10.380 I will make them to do what? To hear my words, 01:02:10.679 --> 01:02:14.760 that they may learn. It is with these courts 01:02:14.760 --> 01:02:18.940 that we may learn. Hallelujah. It is with these 01:02:18.940 --> 01:02:22.699 courts that we may learn of the Lord. that they 01:02:22.699 --> 01:02:25.800 may learn to fear me all the days, that they 01:02:25.800 --> 01:02:32.739 shall live upon the earth, and that they may 01:02:32.739 --> 01:02:35.920 also teach their what? Their children. Let me 01:02:35.920 --> 01:02:40.679 read this one chapter, and then we stop here. 01:02:41.000 --> 01:02:44.380 When we come the next time, we're going to read 01:02:44.380 --> 01:02:47.320 scriptures from the New Testament, and then we 01:02:47.320 --> 01:02:50.820 build a structure for me. Hallelujah. We will 01:02:50.820 --> 01:02:53.460 build a structure from it and we will work with 01:02:53.460 --> 01:02:55.840 that so that we will know how to conduct ourselves. 01:02:56.440 --> 01:02:59.119 What and what do we need when it's a teaching 01:02:59.119 --> 01:03:01.800 meeting? What and what do we need when we are 01:03:01.800 --> 01:03:04.239 coming to Sunday services? What and what do we 01:03:04.239 --> 01:03:06.480 need when we are coming to midweek services? 01:03:06.780 --> 01:03:09.420 When we are coming to self -meetings? Joshua 01:03:09.420 --> 01:03:15.079 chapter 8 verse 34 and we stop here. Joshua chapter 01:03:15.079 --> 01:03:21.840 8 verse 34 and afterwards. Read all the words 01:03:21.840 --> 01:03:25.539 of the law, the blessings and the curses, according 01:03:25.539 --> 01:03:28.420 to all that is written in the book of the law. 01:03:28.619 --> 01:03:31.440 There was not a word of all that Moses commanded, 01:03:31.579 --> 01:03:34.800 which Joshua read not before all the congregation 01:03:34.800 --> 01:03:37.800 of Israel, with the women and all the little 01:03:37.800 --> 01:03:40.880 ones and the strangers that were what? Unversant 01:03:40.880 --> 01:03:42.920 among them. Let me say this and I stop here. 01:03:43.320 --> 01:03:46.730 Teaching meetings are not for men only. Teaching 01:03:46.730 --> 01:03:50.170 meetings are for both men and women and children. 01:03:51.429 --> 01:03:54.150 Do you know what I said? Teaching meetings are 01:03:54.150 --> 01:03:59.489 for everyone. Both men, both women, both children, 01:03:59.769 --> 01:04:06.150 both old, young. See, for everyone. And say, 01:04:06.269 --> 01:04:09.590 these ones, they are small. They are small. They 01:04:09.590 --> 01:04:16.400 are not small. For everyone. For men, for women, 01:04:16.519 --> 01:04:21.699 for children. Hallelujah. That we may know how 01:04:21.699 --> 01:04:24.920 we ought to behave and conduct ourselves in those 01:04:24.920 --> 01:04:30.400 meetings. Can't we just appreciate God? Can't 01:04:30.400 --> 01:04:33.619 we just bless God? Because the coming days that 01:04:33.619 --> 01:04:36.119 are ahead of us, these teachings are pivotal 01:04:36.119 --> 01:04:39.800 for us. They are preparing us for the move of 01:04:39.800 --> 01:04:43.670 the Holy Ghost that is coming ahead of us. Can 01:04:43.670 --> 01:04:46.190 we just appreciate the name of the Lord? Can 01:04:46.190 --> 01:04:49.230 we say thank you, Jesus, for revelation and knowledge? 01:04:49.489 --> 01:04:52.590 Thank you, Jesus, for building us on this reality. 01:04:53.070 --> 01:04:56.730 We bless you, Lord. Glory to God forevermore. 01:04:56.909 --> 01:05:00.469 Thank you, Father, for in Jesus' name we pray. 01:05:01.150 --> 01:05:05.849 Amen. Hallelujah.
