00:00:01.720 --> 00:00:05.599
Welcome to NECF. We're thrilled you're here.

00:00:06.360 --> 00:00:09.320
Make sure to stay with us till the end, where

00:00:09.320 --> 00:00:12.179
we'll share some great resources to deepen your

00:00:12.179 --> 00:00:16.179
faith. Now, let's dive into this week's sermon.

00:00:20.820 --> 00:00:25.800
Yes, much more prophecy. Praise God. So which

00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:28.480
means that when we say let's pray in tongues,

00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:30.699
You should not be doing this mess. I think either

00:00:30.699 --> 00:00:33.600
Pastor Fred or was it Pastor Victor that showed

00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.159
us a posture yesterday, Pastor Victor. You know,

00:00:36.179 --> 00:00:39.420
I attended a meeting by Baba Chris Delvan for

00:00:39.420 --> 00:00:43.880
the first time, 2003. He came to our place. The

00:00:43.880 --> 00:00:46.939
first time he released his first album. You know,

00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:49.439
I bought that album with my money. I finished

00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:54.119
that album. You know, I went to NYSE. When I

00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:56.320
sing, people say I sound like him. I say I've

00:00:56.320 --> 00:00:58.679
never seen him in my life. One -on -one. But

00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:02.619
I know I attended the program. So, that was the

00:01:02.619 --> 00:01:05.099
first album. Something just within me, I said,

00:01:05.239 --> 00:01:07.920
there's something about singing and me. Why is

00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:09.599
it that my parents did not allow me to sing?

00:01:10.099 --> 00:01:12.519
When I was finished on the school, they'd say,

00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:14.680
write the group you want to go. I put choir.

00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:19.420
My mom changed it to prayer team. On Sunday,

00:01:19.540 --> 00:01:21.379
I was happy. They were going to call because

00:01:21.379 --> 00:01:23.659
you wear white, white. So, they're going to call

00:01:23.659 --> 00:01:26.120
you people and then they will announce the group.

00:01:26.670 --> 00:01:30.469
They announced me in prayer team. Ah, I was,

00:01:30.569 --> 00:01:39.290
ah. Pastor Fred said it was rigged. So I attended

00:01:39.290 --> 00:01:44.890
this program. You know, then we grew up in a

00:01:44.890 --> 00:01:48.129
place where the clothes you wear, you grow in

00:01:48.129 --> 00:01:51.170
them. So when they buy you a trouser, you have

00:01:51.170 --> 00:01:53.290
to grow in the trouser. So you should know the

00:01:53.290 --> 00:01:56.079
size of the trouser. When they buy you one shirt,

00:01:56.140 --> 00:01:58.420
I think that also kind of affected us why we

00:01:58.420 --> 00:02:01.280
have to keep clothes for a long time. We use

00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:09.120
clothes. I can use clothes 20 years. Why? Yeah,

00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:15.240
I'm wondering. You know? You know, somebody say,

00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:19.580
are you in the wilderness? I don't know. So when

00:02:19.580 --> 00:02:21.530
they will buy shoe for you, They will buy the

00:02:21.530 --> 00:02:23.689
shoe. You will grow in the shoe. You will grow

00:02:23.689 --> 00:02:25.889
in it. It becomes like an inheritor, like a legacy.

00:02:29.150 --> 00:02:33.729
You know? So, because of that, we never had too

00:02:33.729 --> 00:02:36.969
many clothes. We just had clothes to, the shirts

00:02:36.969 --> 00:02:39.189
to wear, trousers to use. There was no clothes

00:02:39.189 --> 00:02:42.430
like that. So, I was glad my cousin sent his

00:02:42.430 --> 00:02:46.110
Nautica and then one big jeans. You know, Fubu's

00:02:46.110 --> 00:02:48.789
baggy. That one big one. So, I was feeling myself.

00:02:49.289 --> 00:02:51.310
I remember I went to this man's program because

00:02:51.310 --> 00:02:53.210
those were one of my best clothes. If you say,

00:02:53.270 --> 00:02:57.389
go and wear your best clothes, that is one of

00:02:57.389 --> 00:03:00.729
the clothes I know it was my best. I wore and

00:03:00.729 --> 00:03:03.189
then I went to his meeting. So they were praying.

00:03:04.490 --> 00:03:09.689
So me, I took myself to that program. But you

00:03:09.689 --> 00:03:12.669
know, I just put my hands in the pockets and

00:03:12.669 --> 00:03:16.849
I was praying. You know, Baba Delvan looked at

00:03:16.849 --> 00:03:22.080
me. He said, Yulia! Are you mad? Do you think

00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:25.240
we came here to play? We are praying and you're

00:03:25.240 --> 00:03:27.520
putting hands in the pockets and moving around.

00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:32.319
Remove the hand or I send you home. I said, but

00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:37.139
I brought myself to this meeting to show you

00:03:37.139 --> 00:03:39.020
that I did not forget that correction. That's

00:03:39.020 --> 00:03:42.159
why it's still in my head till today. I brought

00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:45.879
myself. I saw the program. I was happy. I came

00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:52.120
there. It's the same posture that when Pastor

00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:53.620
Victor said yesterday, that was a picture that

00:03:53.620 --> 00:03:57.800
came to my head. You can't be on fire and your

00:03:57.800 --> 00:04:02.020
hands are in the pocket. Hallelujah. So when

00:04:02.020 --> 00:04:05.099
we say, let's pray, you just, that's when you

00:04:05.099 --> 00:04:08.620
now enter your big man is in. You know, you start

00:04:08.620 --> 00:04:12.020
pacing around. You start pacing around. The other

00:04:12.020 --> 00:04:14.500
day, Coladay, Coladay asked us to do something,

00:04:14.580 --> 00:04:18.879
right? To kneel down. That's a posture. We saw

00:04:18.879 --> 00:04:21.709
it from scriptures. Right? You start pacing around,

00:04:21.889 --> 00:04:23.649
that's when your body will start scratching you.

00:04:24.730 --> 00:04:27.029
And that is when your phone will start ringing.

00:04:27.310 --> 00:04:29.089
You pick up your phone, you step out, you come

00:04:29.089 --> 00:04:30.790
back. You step out, you come back. You step out.

00:04:30.790 --> 00:04:32.350
You see that lady has stepped out now. She has

00:04:32.350 --> 00:04:36.829
not come back. And I didn't know when she left.

00:04:37.230 --> 00:04:41.850
If I knew, she would not leave. So when we say

00:04:41.850 --> 00:04:47.430
pray, amen, please, boil, boil. If you're online,

00:04:47.589 --> 00:04:50.379
hear me. When we say pray, every, let me say

00:04:50.379 --> 00:04:52.699
this now, it's coming to my heart. Every time

00:04:52.699 --> 00:04:57.019
you are doing a spiritual thing, boil over that

00:04:57.019 --> 00:05:04.180
thing. Hallelujah. Do what? Boil over it. Don't

00:05:04.180 --> 00:05:08.279
take it casual. Boil over it. When we say let's

00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:10.879
take the next five minutes and then pray in tongues,

00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:15.459
please, don't pray casually. Do what? Boil over

00:05:15.459 --> 00:05:19.689
it. Hallelujah. Are we ready to do that? Are

00:05:19.689 --> 00:05:22.269
we ready to do that? Are we ready to do that?

00:05:22.810 --> 00:05:25.629
Yes, this is how we enjoy the supernatural things.

00:05:26.189 --> 00:05:28.430
I was listening to that Baba this morning. He

00:05:28.430 --> 00:05:31.209
said, every time he has a conference, he takes

00:05:31.209 --> 00:05:33.790
one week, two weeks, three weeks, not to prepare

00:05:33.790 --> 00:05:37.009
for the conference, to prepare him for the conference.

00:05:37.790 --> 00:05:41.370
He said, I prepare me. He said, I ensure that

00:05:41.370 --> 00:05:44.769
every noise inside is silenced so that I can

00:05:44.769 --> 00:05:51.610
hear him well. So when we come like this, let

00:05:51.610 --> 00:05:55.089
all our desires, we establish a reality that

00:05:55.089 --> 00:05:57.949
we have audience with God. Hallelujah. We have

00:05:57.949 --> 00:06:00.930
audience with God. So let our desires be what?

00:06:01.050 --> 00:06:03.470
Be fervent. Are we ready? Let's pray in the next

00:06:03.470 --> 00:06:17.389
five minutes in the Holy Ghost. Because the things

00:06:17.389 --> 00:06:19.089
that we are about doing in the next minutes to

00:06:19.089 --> 00:06:22.029
come will require us to be fervent. It will require

00:06:22.029 --> 00:06:24.449
us to be fervent. It will require us to be fervent.

00:06:24.610 --> 00:06:49.670
It will require us to be fervent. Thank you.

00:07:06.350 --> 00:07:11.050
Alabama Moth. Alabama Moth. Alabama Moth. Alabama

00:07:11.050 --> 00:07:14.889
Moth. Alabama Moth. Alabama Moth. Alabama Moth.

00:07:35.449 --> 00:07:39.410
If you're online and you're following, boil,

00:07:39.790 --> 00:07:54.889
boil and pray more in the Holy Ghost. It's the

00:07:54.889 --> 00:08:00.250
Epaphras who is also one of you. That's the posture.

00:08:00.509 --> 00:08:04.269
And Jesus with an agonizing posture. So much

00:08:04.269 --> 00:08:07.209
so that his sweat was thick as blood. That's

00:08:07.209 --> 00:08:10.009
the posture. And they prayed all night for the

00:08:10.009 --> 00:08:12.350
apostles when they were locked up in the prison.

00:08:12.569 --> 00:08:50.360
That's the posture. Thank you. You have an audience

00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:53.559
with God. You have an audience with God and not

00:08:53.559 --> 00:09:13.299
with men. yes yes yes yes yes yes yes Isotomenai,

00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:18.179

Ezazelibolaba. Thank you, Holy Ghost. In Jesus'

00:09:56.879 --> 00:10:01.240
name we pray. Can we have a seat briefly? You

00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:04.799
could do well also by just praying under your

00:10:04.799 --> 00:10:07.419
breath in the Holy Ghost. You know you can do

00:10:07.419 --> 00:10:10.070
that, right? You can listen to me at the same

00:10:10.070 --> 00:10:12.750
time you're praying in tongues. Hallelujah. Praise

00:10:12.750 --> 00:10:17.789
God. Praise God. Praise God. I know for some

00:10:17.789 --> 00:10:21.250
of us, you know, this is one of the first time

00:10:21.250 --> 00:10:23.990
we're experiencing such where you sit from morning

00:10:23.990 --> 00:10:27.409
till evening. The first time I had this experience

00:10:27.409 --> 00:10:31.610
was with Reverend Imao Para from Nigeria. You

00:10:31.610 --> 00:10:33.950
know, the first time I've never had this experience.

00:10:34.210 --> 00:10:36.149
They say we're going to have 14 hours of prayers.

00:10:36.269 --> 00:10:38.539
I say, ah, ah. What are we going to be praying

00:10:38.539 --> 00:10:41.679
for 14 hours? Well, you know, because I have

00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:45.840
the spirit of God, that saying excited me. I

00:10:45.840 --> 00:10:47.620
said, I would love to experience this. Hallelujah.

00:10:48.220 --> 00:10:50.299
Every time you hear things like that, let it

00:10:50.299 --> 00:10:53.840
excite you. I said, I would love to experience

00:10:53.840 --> 00:10:55.539
it because I've never been in a place where we

00:10:55.539 --> 00:10:59.019
prayed 14 hours. At least we've been in a place

00:10:59.019 --> 00:11:01.460
where we had fasting festival, Apostle Idama,

00:11:01.620 --> 00:11:06.620
one week of fasting, no food. Just water, one

00:11:06.620 --> 00:11:10.720
week. I came back home, only my head, my neck

00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:14.320
sling. In fact, the third day, I even vomited.

00:11:16.220 --> 00:11:18.679
You know, one week, if you have never done it,

00:11:18.700 --> 00:11:21.220
you say, will I reach fifth day? As if I will

00:11:21.220 --> 00:11:25.940
die. Because your eyes will be turning you. But

00:11:25.940 --> 00:11:29.120
oh boy, you know, getting to the last day, that

00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:32.139
time in Joss, there was this so much supply of

00:11:32.139 --> 00:11:35.820
strength from the Holy Ghost. I know this Baba

00:11:35.820 --> 00:11:38.740
has been holding this conference for a long time,

00:11:38.779 --> 00:11:40.799
if you know him. I saw him, I thought he was

00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:43.980
Paul. Because the picture we see of Paul, you

00:11:43.980 --> 00:11:46.159
know, in the scripture, he has bald head and

00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:49.019
with long BS to the DC. That's the same way that

00:11:49.019 --> 00:11:52.480
Baba is. With a bald head, all he has is chalk,

00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:59.039
then his BS all to the chest. He was laying on

00:11:59.039 --> 00:12:04.559
us. I know I can explain it now. But when that

00:12:04.559 --> 00:12:08.120
man came close to me, he didn't touch me. I know

00:12:08.120 --> 00:12:12.639
this man carries much more of God's presence.

00:12:16.700 --> 00:12:19.059
You know, he had millions in his box. He kept

00:12:19.059 --> 00:12:21.279
the millions, all the millions for running the

00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:23.279
conference. He kept it on the table. He said,

00:12:23.340 --> 00:12:25.700
all of you in this conference, you know, inside

00:12:25.700 --> 00:12:27.799
this suitcase is all the money we use for running

00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:29.379
this conference. If you are a thief, come and

00:12:29.379 --> 00:12:33.860
steal it. I'm telling you, he said it. That box

00:12:33.860 --> 00:12:37.440
was there till the end of the conference. When

00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:39.500
the government of George sent him two million

00:12:39.500 --> 00:12:43.000
and one cow and ten bags of rice, he said, take

00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:44.679
it back to them. Tell them we don't need it.

00:12:46.779 --> 00:12:49.019
If they want to come here, the governor himself

00:12:49.019 --> 00:12:53.039
should come here. Not anyone. He said, only the

00:12:53.039 --> 00:12:55.259
pillar. You see that light? It's 1 .5 million.

00:12:55.440 --> 00:12:58.480
You see the other one? Only light. You know,

00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:00.759
he sent the thing back to them. Tomorrow evening,

00:13:00.799 --> 00:13:09.690
the governor came. So when you hear of spiritual

00:13:09.690 --> 00:13:13.289
and I shortly, I just came back shortly from

00:13:13.289 --> 00:13:16.129
school and I had on Sunday that people are traveling

00:13:16.129 --> 00:13:18.950
for fasting festival. I did not calculate it

00:13:18.950 --> 00:13:21.470
in my head. I did not even arrange it with my

00:13:21.470 --> 00:13:24.029
parents. I told them I had the announcing fellowship

00:13:24.029 --> 00:13:26.690
on Friday that on Sunday there is a traveling

00:13:26.690 --> 00:13:29.889
to Joss. I want to go. I packed my bag straight

00:13:29.889 --> 00:13:35.210
to Joss. These are some of the things that will

00:13:35.210 --> 00:13:40.909
preserve God's deposit in your life. When you

00:13:40.909 --> 00:13:43.370
hear meetings like that, don't run away from

00:13:43.370 --> 00:13:47.250
them. Praise God. Hallelujah. With this so much

00:13:47.250 --> 00:13:50.269
knowledge you have, at the age where you are,

00:13:50.350 --> 00:13:55.250
16, 17, 20, 21, what you are hearing today, we

00:13:55.250 --> 00:13:59.330
never had it at 21. We never had anybody, sir,

00:13:59.389 --> 00:14:02.690
even at 23, 24, for sure not say, this is how

00:14:02.690 --> 00:14:05.919
you craft your life. Don't do this. The other

00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:07.940
day we were talking. If we had people that were

00:14:07.940 --> 00:14:09.500
following us the way we are following people

00:14:09.500 --> 00:14:17.100
and you're running away. Really will not be here.

00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:22.240
But something kept us. Hallelujah. That desire

00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:25.360
never died. Hallelujah. That desire never what?

00:14:25.820 --> 00:14:28.440
Never died. That desire should not die in your

00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:32.200
heart. Praise God. It should never die. It should

00:14:32.200 --> 00:14:35.179
never grow cold. It should never grow cold. It

00:14:35.179 --> 00:14:37.139
should never grow cold. It should never grow

00:14:37.139 --> 00:14:39.860
cold. It should never grow cold. It should never

00:14:39.860 --> 00:14:43.779
what? Grow cold by the Spirit of God. Now, in

00:14:43.779 --> 00:14:49.039
your own corner, plan out a time that I'm going

00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:51.519
to give myself to praying in tongues for the

00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:55.519
next 90 days. Praying in tongues every day for

00:14:55.519 --> 00:14:58.320
one hour. I will give myself praying. Praying

00:14:58.320 --> 00:15:00.539
in tongues. Not in English language. Not in French.

00:15:00.620 --> 00:15:02.820
Not in Zimbabwe language. Not in any language.

00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:06.799
Only tongues for one hour for the next 90 days.

00:15:06.919 --> 00:15:13.820
Plan it out. Something will happen about your

00:15:13.820 --> 00:15:23.059
life. Amen? Praise God. Yeah, so let's go. Where

00:15:23.059 --> 00:15:25.159
did we stop? So that we can run this and then...

00:15:25.159 --> 00:15:28.129
Like I told us, when we talk about... Tongues

00:15:28.129 --> 00:15:29.669
and interpretation of tongues is already what?

00:15:30.509 --> 00:15:34.529
Prophecy. Praise God. Yeah, so even when we're

00:15:34.529 --> 00:15:36.830
going to talk about prophecy later on, it will

00:15:36.830 --> 00:15:40.129
just be just almost like what? A reputation.

00:15:40.210 --> 00:15:42.090
Because we're going to dwell still on 1 Corinthians

00:15:42.090 --> 00:15:45.669
chapter 14 and it's the same side by side that

00:15:45.669 --> 00:15:49.169
you see Paul talking about that. Amen? So where

00:15:49.169 --> 00:15:51.029
did we stop? Can you remind me please? Sorry.

00:15:57.639 --> 00:16:03.759
We stop at what? Definition of prophecy? Okay,

00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:07.340
speak by inspiration. Thank you, sir. Excuse

00:16:07.340 --> 00:16:13.740
me. So, okay, and then we said we carried the

00:16:13.740 --> 00:16:16.019
words and we put it in, right? Yeah, so and then

00:16:16.019 --> 00:16:20.480
you read it for us. Thank you for that. Holy

00:16:20.480 --> 00:16:27.490
Spirit. So, Having said that now, 1 Corinthians

00:16:27.490 --> 00:16:31.429
14, let's just build from there. I told us we

00:16:31.429 --> 00:16:34.129
should not be tired of 1 Corinthians, Mark chapter

00:16:34.129 --> 00:16:38.169
16, Acts. We're going to be going there back

00:16:38.169 --> 00:16:43.169
and forth. Follow after what? Charity, right?

00:16:43.769 --> 00:16:47.590
And desire spiritual gifts. But rather that ye

00:16:47.590 --> 00:16:51.330
may what? Much more that ye may prophesy. You

00:16:51.330 --> 00:16:54.090
speak by the inspiration of the Holy Ghost at

00:16:54.090 --> 00:17:00.600
the spur of the moment. Amen? So, when Paul starts

00:17:00.600 --> 00:17:03.559
out, or as he has started out this chapter, he

00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:06.839
said that much more that ye may what? Prophesy.

00:17:07.299 --> 00:17:11.099
And then we established that prophecy is directly

00:17:11.099 --> 00:17:14.960
what? Edifying the what? The church, right? And

00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:17.160
so, when we say you're speaking by inspiration,

00:17:17.519 --> 00:17:20.759
what we are saying is that you are speaking intelligible

00:17:20.759 --> 00:17:24.819
words that the mind can understand. Do you know

00:17:24.819 --> 00:17:27.470
what I said? When we say prophecy, you are speaking

00:17:27.470 --> 00:17:33.809
by inspiration. What the Holy Ghost is uttering

00:17:33.809 --> 00:17:37.470
through you, right, is coming to the mind and

00:17:37.470 --> 00:17:40.230
the mind is understanding it. So in essence,

00:17:40.329 --> 00:17:44.589
what we mean is that now prophecy is using, let

00:17:44.589 --> 00:17:47.650
me qualify it this way now carefully, is using

00:17:47.650 --> 00:17:54.819
the common language to be able to explain. supernatural

00:17:54.819 --> 00:18:00.019
information or communication. Using what? Common

00:18:00.019 --> 00:18:04.160
language. A language that everyone understands.

00:18:04.519 --> 00:18:09.019
The language that your hearer understands. So

00:18:09.019 --> 00:18:12.640
prophecy is using what? A common language. A

00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:17.619
natural language that the mind understands to

00:18:17.619 --> 00:18:25.609
explain supernatural communication. Prophecy

00:18:25.609 --> 00:18:29.990
is using what? Natural language, common language

00:18:29.990 --> 00:18:34.230
that the mind understands to explain what? Supernatural

00:18:34.230 --> 00:18:39.890
what? Communication. So that the mind can be

00:18:39.890 --> 00:18:43.829
edified. You can either put so that the mind

00:18:43.829 --> 00:18:45.750
can be edified or the hearer can be edified.

00:18:47.289 --> 00:18:51.609
So every time prophecy comes, prophecy will not

00:18:51.609 --> 00:18:54.569
come in speakings like tongues. Prophecy will

00:18:54.569 --> 00:18:57.549
come in words that are understandable to the

00:18:57.549 --> 00:19:02.910
mind. Amen? But the sole end of prophecy is what?

00:19:03.410 --> 00:19:07.190
Edification. Don't forget. The sole end and the

00:19:07.190 --> 00:19:11.210
aim of prophecy is what? Edification. To build.

00:19:11.609 --> 00:19:15.910
So prophecies don't come to destroy. Prophecies

00:19:15.910 --> 00:19:19.349
come to build. However, I've jumped ahead. But

00:19:19.349 --> 00:19:22.509
it's still part of interpretation. Prophecies

00:19:22.509 --> 00:19:26.569
don't come to what? To destroy. Prophecies come

00:19:26.569 --> 00:19:32.670
to do what? To build. So when you get into a

00:19:32.670 --> 00:19:34.150
place and somebody is giving you a prophetic

00:19:34.150 --> 00:19:35.609
word, he's giving you tongues and interpretation

00:19:35.609 --> 00:19:39.589
of tongues, right? And then suddenly, instead

00:19:39.589 --> 00:19:42.910
of getting edified, you're feeling unedified

00:19:42.910 --> 00:19:49.230
and you're feeling destroyed, right? Two things

00:19:49.230 --> 00:19:52.140
are happening. which we are going to learn here

00:19:52.140 --> 00:19:55.180
also. Whether the person has not learned and

00:19:55.180 --> 00:19:58.980
is matured on how to pass the information he

00:19:58.980 --> 00:20:02.059
or she is receiving as a result of growth or

00:20:02.059 --> 00:20:04.940
as a result of teaching, right? Or the person

00:20:04.940 --> 00:20:11.059
is transmitting from a wrong source. So there's

00:20:11.059 --> 00:20:13.400
a place where as a result of your growth, you

00:20:13.400 --> 00:20:15.720
are not taught. So you are hearing and you are

00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:19.430
receiving accurately, right? But now, How to

00:20:19.430 --> 00:20:26.450
transmit it. I want to give one example. I don't

00:20:26.450 --> 00:20:31.150
know how to put it. Let me leave it. How to transmit

00:20:31.150 --> 00:20:37.130
it now is a challenge. Right? So, but however,

00:20:37.250 --> 00:20:39.950
now you need to be taught and you now learn how

00:20:39.950 --> 00:20:42.789
to now carefully because one of the things we

00:20:42.789 --> 00:20:45.430
are learning is that every time you receive an

00:20:45.430 --> 00:20:49.900
instruction, the sole aim is to edify. The sole

00:20:49.900 --> 00:20:53.019
aim is to what? When there is tongue and interpretation,

00:20:53.460 --> 00:20:57.539
the sole aim is what? Edification. Edification.

00:20:58.000 --> 00:21:01.000
We're going to see now. Edification. Building,

00:21:01.140 --> 00:21:04.240
building, building, building, building. Not to

00:21:04.240 --> 00:21:07.500
put fear. Not to put fear. Not to put anxiety.

00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:11.240
Not to put worry. Not to put fear. Not to put

00:21:11.240 --> 00:21:14.660
anxiety. Not to put worry. But to set up faith

00:21:14.660 --> 00:21:21.319
and to build. That's why yesterday I counseled

00:21:21.319 --> 00:21:23.400
some people to leave some groups on WhatsApp,

00:21:23.420 --> 00:21:27.240
on TikTok, Palm or Strange House group. Understand

00:21:27.240 --> 00:21:30.420
your destiny by reading the Sky group. I told

00:21:30.420 --> 00:21:34.859
you, leave those groups. That is why you're hearing

00:21:34.859 --> 00:21:39.900
things when you sleep. You see things. When I

00:21:39.900 --> 00:21:41.680
sit, I just hear things. Why won't you hear things?

00:21:43.079 --> 00:21:45.900
The source of what you're hearing is not edifying

00:21:45.900 --> 00:21:48.900
you. I remember a sister came here. And she told

00:21:48.900 --> 00:21:50.440
me that she's already hearing since she's here.

00:21:50.519 --> 00:21:53.660
I will not say her name. But she's not in the

00:21:53.660 --> 00:21:56.539
hall here. And I hope she's listening to me online.

00:21:58.799 --> 00:22:02.200
You know, and we asked her, what book and what

00:22:02.200 --> 00:22:04.180
are you hearing? She said that she has been reading

00:22:04.180 --> 00:22:08.019
something about demonic, demonic something, something,

00:22:08.059 --> 00:22:09.960
something. And there's somebody that she's following

00:22:09.960 --> 00:22:13.319
online. There was one guy that they released

00:22:13.319 --> 00:22:16.500
on YouTube that talks about, is it hell or Satan?

00:22:17.049 --> 00:22:20.369
was something demonizing. I said, why are you

00:22:20.369 --> 00:22:22.349
listening? She said that she's listening so that

00:22:22.349 --> 00:22:28.809
she can understand their operation. And I asked

00:22:28.809 --> 00:22:31.509
her, you have not finished with the operation

00:22:31.509 --> 00:22:34.329
of what we are doing in this church. You are

00:22:34.329 --> 00:22:39.609
giving yourself fully to that. Why won't you

00:22:39.609 --> 00:22:43.119
be hearing the things you are hearing? Why won't

00:22:43.119 --> 00:22:44.980
you be seen? She said when she sleeps, she sees

00:22:44.980 --> 00:22:47.700
people are following her like she's seen demons

00:22:47.700 --> 00:22:49.839
around. Do you know what she told me? She said

00:22:49.839 --> 00:22:51.720
when she looks at people, she sees demons on

00:22:51.720 --> 00:23:10.740
their head. Yes. It took time. She has stopped

00:23:10.740 --> 00:23:24.220
seeing them now. The sole aim of tongues and

00:23:24.220 --> 00:23:28.380
interpretation is what? Edification. And I said

00:23:28.380 --> 00:23:31.720
something earlier that interpretation is not

00:23:31.720 --> 00:23:35.339
translating syllables of the sounds of your tongues.

00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:41.480
Interpretation is not what? Translating the sounds

00:23:41.480 --> 00:23:44.660
or the syllables of your what? Of your tongue.

00:23:44.759 --> 00:23:48.890
No. And I said something profoundly that interpretation

00:23:48.890 --> 00:23:53.769
is also a diversity of the Holy Ghost within

00:23:53.769 --> 00:23:57.109
the believer. The believer has tongues within

00:23:57.109 --> 00:24:00.170
him. He also has what? Interpretation. So the

00:24:00.170 --> 00:24:04.589
source of interpretation is the Holy Ghost. So

00:24:04.589 --> 00:24:08.410
interpretation does not come from your mind,

00:24:08.450 --> 00:24:11.710
but interpretation comes from your what? From

00:24:11.710 --> 00:24:15.859
your spirit. So it's interpretation that comes

00:24:15.859 --> 00:24:18.579
from your spirit and then the mind is able to

00:24:18.579 --> 00:24:21.720
catch up with the information. Praise God. So

00:24:21.720 --> 00:24:24.299
when interpretation comes now, your mind now

00:24:24.299 --> 00:24:31.160
takes it up. I say, glory! They never spoke yesterday.

00:24:31.740 --> 00:24:34.140
Brother Prince and other brother, remind me your

00:24:34.140 --> 00:24:38.759
name. Simon. They never met yesterday. They never

00:24:38.759 --> 00:24:41.240
spoke yesterday. But the same word he gave me

00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:43.619
today, the same word he also gave me today. Yesterday,

00:24:43.720 --> 00:24:46.980
sorry. He also gave me. Just a confirmation.

00:24:48.980 --> 00:24:53.500
And my mind understood it. Why? Because for the

00:24:53.500 --> 00:24:56.279
past few weeks, I've been getting lots of information

00:24:56.279 --> 00:24:59.440
of the same thing. In fact, with lots of messages.

00:24:59.920 --> 00:25:01.740
People that we have not talked to for a long

00:25:01.740 --> 00:25:09.720
time. So now, you see, they've interpreted it

00:25:09.720 --> 00:25:12.900
and my mind has what? Understood it. Am I edified?

00:25:13.660 --> 00:25:19.559
Yes, I'm edified. That's interpretation of tongues.

00:25:20.940 --> 00:25:25.799
Are we all here? So, run away. You have passed

00:25:25.799 --> 00:25:27.880
that place now. But when you meet people now,

00:25:27.980 --> 00:25:30.460
because you have passed the level of what I was

00:25:30.460 --> 00:25:32.529
about to say. So I've changed it now. When you

00:25:32.529 --> 00:25:35.049
meet people and they're struggling with the sounds

00:25:35.049 --> 00:25:37.609
of tongues, the sounds of tongues, right? You

00:25:37.609 --> 00:25:40.670
know what to tell them now, right? Right? So,

00:25:40.710 --> 00:25:42.170
and then you know what to tell them regarding

00:25:42.170 --> 00:25:45.309
interpretation, right? Perfect. Glory to God.

00:25:45.990 --> 00:25:51.650
Hallelujah. Hallelujah. So, verse 3 and 4 now.

00:25:52.049 --> 00:25:55.450
We say, but he that prophesied speaketh unto

00:25:55.450 --> 00:25:58.730
men. To what? Can you see why I kept stressing

00:25:58.730 --> 00:26:01.890
edification? But he that prophesied edifies.

00:26:02.289 --> 00:26:07.890
Say I prophesy and I edify. I prophesy and I

00:26:07.890 --> 00:26:11.950
edify. Hallelujah. So because prophecy brings

00:26:11.950 --> 00:26:15.349
edification. Prophecy brings exaltation. Prophecy

00:26:15.349 --> 00:26:18.849
brings comfort. Prophecy does not bring, should

00:26:18.849 --> 00:26:22.269
not bring anxiety. Prophecy should not bring

00:26:22.269 --> 00:26:25.470
fear. Prophecy should not bring sleepless nights.

00:26:30.160 --> 00:26:33.380
We're going to teach extensively on prophecy,

00:26:33.619 --> 00:26:37.920
on the prophetic. Amen? So you see, I'm already

00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:39.980
mixing interpretation and prophecy at the same

00:26:39.980 --> 00:26:43.279
time. Praise God. Hallelujah. Are we all here?

00:26:43.759 --> 00:26:46.579
So verse 3, verse 4 now. He that speaketh in

00:26:46.579 --> 00:26:50.559
an unknown tongue edifies who? You now know why

00:26:50.559 --> 00:26:52.460
the scripture says that you edify yourself, right?

00:26:52.880 --> 00:27:00.319
Why? Tell me. Yes? Yes? Yes, sir. Yes sir, that's

00:27:00.319 --> 00:27:06.960
one. Oh, this class. Please, we'll share the

00:27:06.960 --> 00:27:09.619
grace and go. You've written these things on

00:27:09.619 --> 00:27:14.039
your book now. When we say, he that speaketh

00:27:14.039 --> 00:27:16.279
in an unknown tongue, or he that prayeth in tongue,

00:27:16.319 --> 00:27:19.119
he defies himself. He's talking about one person

00:27:19.119 --> 00:27:28.640
now. What does he mean? Yes! You have audience,

00:27:28.859 --> 00:27:34.259
you and God. We say it's what? It's an elevated

00:27:34.259 --> 00:27:37.079
discussion. You and God. So what's happening

00:27:37.079 --> 00:27:39.539
is that God and you are understanding what you

00:27:39.539 --> 00:27:45.960
are speaking. You are edified. Praise God. Hallelujah.

00:27:46.680 --> 00:27:50.759
That's what's happening. But you should not stop

00:27:50.759 --> 00:27:52.039
there. See what the scripture says in verse 4.

00:27:52.220 --> 00:27:55.519
But he that prophesied edified what? The church.

00:27:55.700 --> 00:27:58.940
Why? Because when it's prophecy, now the words.

00:27:59.079 --> 00:28:03.980
What did I say about prophecy? Yes, the language

00:28:03.980 --> 00:28:09.640
other people understand. Or when I pray in tongues

00:28:09.640 --> 00:28:12.420
and I interpret the tongues, I edify the church.

00:28:12.660 --> 00:28:15.500
Why now? Because in interpretation, what's happened

00:28:15.500 --> 00:28:19.539
is that I use common language that the mind can

00:28:19.539 --> 00:28:22.299
understand. So, in the short moments now, we're

00:28:22.299 --> 00:28:24.380
going to split ourselves, right? And then we're

00:28:24.380 --> 00:28:26.720
going to pray in the Holy Ghost much more. And

00:28:26.720 --> 00:28:29.980
then we'll say, give a word. Do you give a word

00:28:29.980 --> 00:28:33.000
when we say, give a word? Come, for example.

00:28:34.099 --> 00:28:40.839
Let's do something. Let's pray. Let's pray for

00:28:40.839 --> 00:28:44.859
two minutes in the Holy Ghost. Don't look at

00:28:44.859 --> 00:29:10.839
us praying in the Holy Ghost. Praise God. Hallelujah.

00:29:11.660 --> 00:29:14.859
I've received a word for him. Right? I've received

00:29:14.859 --> 00:29:18.420
a word. In my heart now for him. But now. Let

00:29:18.420 --> 00:29:34.700
me give him the word. Are you with me? Rejoice

00:29:34.700 --> 00:29:42.079
now. So you are rejoicing. How do you understand?

00:29:43.160 --> 00:29:46.900
What did you understand? Are you rejoicing? Did

00:29:46.900 --> 00:29:54.279
you understand anything? Nothing. But now. If

00:29:54.279 --> 00:29:57.079
I come now. After we have taken time. And I tell

00:29:57.079 --> 00:29:59.119
him that I perceive in my heart. That there is

00:29:59.119 --> 00:30:01.400
so much desire for the supernatural. There is

00:30:01.400 --> 00:30:02.920
so much desire for the supernatural. And the

00:30:02.920 --> 00:30:04.779
spirit of God is saying that in this season.

00:30:04.960 --> 00:30:07.640
He is satisfying that desire much more. That

00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:10.220
you will see signs, wonders and miracles walk

00:30:10.220 --> 00:30:12.559
through your hands. He said even in the seemingly

00:30:12.559 --> 00:30:15.059
natural things that you desire. Those things

00:30:15.059 --> 00:30:17.279
that you've been praying much more. Those things

00:30:17.279 --> 00:30:19.480
that you've been, oh, you've been asking. Oh,

00:30:19.640 --> 00:30:22.019
really these things are possible. And I know

00:30:22.019 --> 00:30:23.960
it's possible through my hands. He said, I'm

00:30:23.960 --> 00:30:26.240
making them your reality much more. You will

00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:29.019
walk in them. You will see them. And many will

00:30:29.019 --> 00:30:35.859
testify of it. Hallelujah. Does he understand

00:30:35.859 --> 00:30:45.039
it? That's interpretation. Hallelujah. That's

00:30:45.039 --> 00:30:53.759
interpretation. That's just it. So as you keep

00:30:53.759 --> 00:30:55.960
it up, as you keep it up, as you keep it up,

00:30:56.000 --> 00:31:02.500
you get better at it. Don't shy away from it.

00:31:03.839 --> 00:31:09.700
Hallelujah. Good. So now, I just perceived this.

00:31:10.079 --> 00:31:12.200
You know, this thing that happened now, a couple

00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:13.720
of people have received a word in their heart.

00:31:16.779 --> 00:31:18.140
A couple of people have received a word. Two,

00:31:18.279 --> 00:31:19.519
three people have received a word. Who is the

00:31:19.519 --> 00:31:23.140
person or who are the people? Don't shy now.

00:31:23.279 --> 00:31:38.819
I just finished saying the word. I'll set you

00:31:38.819 --> 00:31:45.619
up. My management says I should not do this sign,

00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:48.660
so I'll not do it. But I will set you up. I will

00:31:48.660 --> 00:31:52.980
set you up. My management knows the sign. So,

00:31:53.019 --> 00:31:58.759
the Lord will give you understanding. Are we

00:31:58.759 --> 00:32:01.480
all here? So now, verse 4. He that speaketh in

00:32:01.480 --> 00:32:03.400
an unknown tongue edified himself. We have established

00:32:03.400 --> 00:32:05.640
what edified himself means, right? But he that

00:32:05.640 --> 00:32:08.119
prophesied edified what? The church. 5 now. I

00:32:08.119 --> 00:32:10.299
would that ye all speak with tongues, but rather

00:32:10.299 --> 00:32:12.460
that ye what? Prophesy. For greater is he that

00:32:12.460 --> 00:32:15.579
prophesied than he that what? Speaketh with what?

00:32:16.240 --> 00:32:19.660
With tongues. Except he, what? Interpret that

00:32:19.660 --> 00:32:23.279
the church may receive a defiant. Hallelujah.

00:32:23.579 --> 00:32:26.079
He said, for greater is he that prophesied than

00:32:26.079 --> 00:32:29.819
he that speaketh with what? With tongues. And

00:32:29.819 --> 00:32:32.200
we establish a word there, rather. Have you written

00:32:32.200 --> 00:32:34.660
something like that? Rather. You wrote it before,

00:32:34.759 --> 00:32:38.599
right? What's the word? Much more. Praise God.

00:32:38.900 --> 00:32:42.099
So if you realize, much more. When you check

00:32:42.099 --> 00:32:44.500
the original context of this writing, right?

00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:47.180
Translators have been able to act to help our

00:32:47.180 --> 00:32:50.319
understanding, actually. Right? They've been

00:32:50.319 --> 00:32:53.059
able to act, hear that. All the world has been

00:32:53.059 --> 00:32:57.440
seeing that. Right? So, because now, Paul is

00:32:57.440 --> 00:33:00.279
communicating from verse 1. And the matter of

00:33:00.279 --> 00:33:03.799
the discourse has not changed. Praise God. And

00:33:03.799 --> 00:33:07.019
the discourse is about the prophecy. Much more.

00:33:07.339 --> 00:33:09.740
Prophecy. He said, when you speak in tongues,

00:33:09.880 --> 00:33:13.519
interpret. The end of it, edification. Hallelujah.

00:33:14.259 --> 00:33:17.279
Yes, so he can come again and negate a reality

00:33:17.279 --> 00:33:20.599
and say that, oh, you know, when you speak in

00:33:20.599 --> 00:33:23.420
tongues, you are now greater than, sorry, when

00:33:23.420 --> 00:33:25.880
you prophesy, you are now greater than the one

00:33:25.880 --> 00:33:29.880
that what? That speaks in tongues. And then now

00:33:29.880 --> 00:33:32.279
every one of us go about. We say, you know, this

00:33:32.279 --> 00:33:35.759
man is a prophet. He is greater than us. And

00:33:35.759 --> 00:33:37.779
let me just say something. You can receive a

00:33:37.779 --> 00:33:39.400
word. In Africa, it's not common, but let me

00:33:39.400 --> 00:33:42.000
say it now. It just came back. In Africa, you

00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:47.339
cannot receive a word for your pastor. It's difficult.

00:33:49.059 --> 00:33:51.579
Even when you receive it, it cannot reach him.

00:33:52.539 --> 00:33:54.720
It will take you one year maybe before it reaches

00:33:54.720 --> 00:34:00.259
him. The first time I learned that actually,

00:34:00.359 --> 00:34:04.099
you can actually give a word was the day we were

00:34:04.099 --> 00:34:07.519
doing prophetic activation with Papa Steve. When

00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:08.860
he said, no, you can give me a word, I said,

00:34:08.920 --> 00:34:13.300
ah! Who am I? I'm not worthy. I'm not worthy.

00:34:14.820 --> 00:34:16.860
And you know, so we prayed, prayed, prayed. So

00:34:16.860 --> 00:34:19.159
by the Spirit, I now just, you know, I said,

00:34:19.199 --> 00:34:21.139
I perceive, sir, that you people are planning

00:34:21.139 --> 00:34:25.179
to move to Europe. Yes, Europe. I just perceive

00:34:25.179 --> 00:34:28.900
Europe. I didn't get the country, France. I saw

00:34:28.900 --> 00:34:35.400
him smiling. I said, ah, maybe I messed up. So

00:34:35.400 --> 00:34:40.510
he said, Koston, I said, yes, sir. He said, hmm.

00:34:41.530 --> 00:34:46.630
So, did you get the country? You know, I immediately

00:34:46.630 --> 00:34:52.250
said, I got it. I felt like, come on now. I've

00:34:52.250 --> 00:34:55.090
received a word from man of God and I know his

00:34:55.090 --> 00:35:04.329
class. Because where we are coming from is strange.

00:35:06.969 --> 00:35:09.599
Glory to God. But let me tell you, I announced

00:35:09.599 --> 00:35:11.320
to you that you can receive a word for a man

00:35:11.320 --> 00:35:14.659
of God by the Spirit of God. You can receive

00:35:14.659 --> 00:35:17.219
a word for your pastors. If you're online, you're

00:35:17.219 --> 00:35:19.380
hearing me, you can receive a word. Hallelujah.

00:35:19.800 --> 00:35:22.480
And give them the word. Praise God. Hallelujah.

00:35:23.159 --> 00:35:25.579
Yes, that is to answer one question in someone's

00:35:25.579 --> 00:35:29.500
heart now. Amen. Praise God. So Paul would have

00:35:29.500 --> 00:35:32.360
not been speaking that the one that prophesies

00:35:32.360 --> 00:35:35.119
is what? Is greater than the one that speaks

00:35:35.119 --> 00:35:38.880
in tongues. And also what? Because the sole aim

00:35:38.880 --> 00:35:42.159
of this communication in verse 5 is about what?

00:35:42.300 --> 00:35:45.119
Edification. Praise God. Because when we read

00:35:45.119 --> 00:35:47.519
verse 4 carefully, let's go to verse 4 everybody.

00:35:47.880 --> 00:35:50.900
He that speaketh in an unknown tongue does what?

00:35:51.699 --> 00:35:55.820
Edified himself. But he that prophesied edified

00:35:55.820 --> 00:35:59.420
what? The church. So he wants to explain much

00:35:59.420 --> 00:36:02.019
more what is his communication from verse 4.

00:36:02.619 --> 00:36:05.400
Right? Because if he's saying in verse 4, in

00:36:05.400 --> 00:36:07.900
verse 5, sorry. If he's saying in verse 4, the

00:36:07.900 --> 00:36:12.360
prophecy edifies the church. But the man, right,

00:36:12.579 --> 00:36:16.699
that prays in tongues, edifies himself. So verse

00:36:16.699 --> 00:36:20.000
5 will be. So when I edify myself and I have

00:36:20.000 --> 00:36:23.679
to edify the church, what should I do? Do we

00:36:23.679 --> 00:36:26.880
understand? Do we understand? That's what's happening

00:36:26.880 --> 00:36:30.500
in verse 5. Everybody go to verse 5 now. That's

00:36:30.500 --> 00:36:32.260
what's happening now. See now, he says in verse

00:36:32.260 --> 00:36:36.320
5, I would that ye all speak with what? With

00:36:36.320 --> 00:36:41.699
tongues. But rather, much more that you do what?

00:36:41.960 --> 00:36:45.139
That you prophesy. Why? Because previously he

00:36:45.139 --> 00:36:50.139
has said that prophecy edifies the church. However,

00:36:50.480 --> 00:36:55.559
now, when we keep reading now, for greater is

00:36:55.559 --> 00:36:59.519
he that prophesied than he that what? Speaketh

00:36:59.519 --> 00:37:03.260
in what? With tongues. Except he interprets,

00:37:03.320 --> 00:37:06.400
what will happen? That the church may do what?

00:37:07.760 --> 00:37:11.579
That the church may what? So now, fast now, because

00:37:11.579 --> 00:37:13.340
I want to quickly run over this place. I have

00:37:13.340 --> 00:37:14.820
a few minutes here so that we can do the things

00:37:14.820 --> 00:37:17.340
that we have ahead of us. When you check the

00:37:17.340 --> 00:37:21.619
what, that greater is maison. M -E -I -Z -O -N.

00:37:24.360 --> 00:37:27.340
He wasn't saying the one that prophesied is greater

00:37:27.340 --> 00:37:30.599
than what? The one that speaks in tongues. It's

00:37:30.599 --> 00:37:33.219
about edification. Praise God. So Paul would

00:37:33.219 --> 00:37:35.039
have not been contradicting the communication

00:37:35.039 --> 00:37:42.260
from verse 1, 2, 3, 4. Mason. M -E -I -Z -O -N.

00:37:42.840 --> 00:37:48.559
Mason. M -E -I -Z -O -N. And that word there

00:37:48.559 --> 00:37:53.860
is more. And that more there is not talking about

00:37:53.860 --> 00:37:56.519
ranking or classification. Prophecy is greater

00:37:56.519 --> 00:37:59.500
than what? than tongues. No. What he's saying

00:37:59.500 --> 00:38:03.400
is that the same way that prophecy brings edifying,

00:38:03.659 --> 00:38:08.579
when tongues is added with interpretation, edification

00:38:08.579 --> 00:38:16.119
also comes to what? To the church. Amen? Hallelujah.

00:38:16.480 --> 00:38:23.800
How did I know? Verse 6. See verse 6 now. How

00:38:23.800 --> 00:38:27.219
did I know? Verse 6. Now, brethren, if I come

00:38:27.219 --> 00:38:30.679
to you speaking with tongues, what shall I what?

00:38:31.280 --> 00:38:35.699
Profit you. Except I shall speak with you either

00:38:35.699 --> 00:38:40.219
by what? Revelation or by knowledge or by prophesying

00:38:40.219 --> 00:38:44.820
or by what? Doctrine. So he's saying that when

00:38:44.820 --> 00:38:48.500
I come to you, the only way I can profit you,

00:38:48.579 --> 00:38:51.099
that what profit there, the only way I can be

00:38:51.099 --> 00:38:54.659
of advantage to you is that I have to either

00:38:55.369 --> 00:38:59.110
bring their tongues and interpret it. A disclosed

00:38:59.110 --> 00:39:03.849
matter is now, an undisclosed matter is now disclosed,

00:39:03.849 --> 00:39:07.210
right? That's revelation. Amen? Yes, because

00:39:07.210 --> 00:39:09.150
interpretation, I've said it, that it happens

00:39:09.150 --> 00:39:12.969
by what? Revelation. Praise God. So now, the

00:39:12.969 --> 00:39:16.289
only way Paul will say that what? Is that I come

00:39:16.289 --> 00:39:20.369
to you either by revelation or by what? Knowledge

00:39:20.369 --> 00:39:24.900
or by what? Prophesying or by what? Or by doctrine.

00:39:25.019 --> 00:39:28.539
All of this will come with a natural language.

00:39:28.800 --> 00:39:32.099
So that the human mind can what? Can understand

00:39:32.099 --> 00:39:37.559
and be edified. So verse 5 is not talking about

00:39:37.559 --> 00:39:41.699
ranking of who is great and not. That word he

00:39:41.699 --> 00:39:46.260
that was added by translators. So that word greater

00:39:46.260 --> 00:39:51.360
is talking about more. And that more there is

00:39:51.360 --> 00:39:54.590
saying that prophecy. Right? The same way we

00:39:54.590 --> 00:39:56.449
define prophecy. You remember the definition,

00:39:56.550 --> 00:40:00.210
right? Yes, sir. Prophecy, as much as prophecy

00:40:00.210 --> 00:40:03.690
brings edifying to the church, when tongues is

00:40:03.690 --> 00:40:07.250
mixed with interpretation, edification comes.

00:40:10.570 --> 00:40:16.030
Praise God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. So because

00:40:16.030 --> 00:40:20.670
now there are lots of assertions that no, he's

00:40:20.670 --> 00:40:22.940
the one that prophesies. He's greater than the

00:40:22.940 --> 00:40:25.360
one that what? That speaks. Ah, that comes to

00:40:25.360 --> 00:40:29.159
me. I saw a man somewhere. I saw a man that come.

00:40:29.239 --> 00:40:31.679
Maybe you have seen it. One pastor brought one

00:40:31.679 --> 00:40:34.340
lady up. She spoke in tongues. And he now asked

00:40:34.340 --> 00:40:36.019
somebody to come and interpret. Have you seen

00:40:36.019 --> 00:40:39.719
the video somewhere? He was shaming, shaming

00:40:39.719 --> 00:40:44.679
tongues. You know, I just saw that man. The word

00:40:44.679 --> 00:40:50.099
that came to my heart, he said, You know, he

00:40:50.099 --> 00:40:51.820
called the lady and told her, pray in tongues,

00:40:51.920 --> 00:40:55.280
pray, pray, pray. And the lady seriously prayed

00:40:55.280 --> 00:40:57.739
in tongues. In fact, she fervently prayed that

00:40:57.739 --> 00:41:01.559
prayer. And he now said, can anybody come and

00:41:01.559 --> 00:41:03.460
come and interpret it? You have not seen it?

00:41:04.139 --> 00:41:06.219
It's somewhere online. I saw it some time ago.

00:41:07.139 --> 00:41:14.800
Yes. I felt pain in my heart. And you know the

00:41:14.800 --> 00:41:17.449
scripture he read? It's that place. We are coming

00:41:17.449 --> 00:41:19.769
to it in Acts chapter 14. That if there be no

00:41:19.769 --> 00:41:29.469
interpreter. He now ridiculed tongues there.

00:41:29.989 --> 00:41:32.949
He ridiculed. He even ridiculed the lady too.

00:41:39.869 --> 00:41:44.090
No Allah. We are here. That's why we are here.

00:41:44.130 --> 00:41:47.559
Praise God. See, that's why I'm here. Yes, that's

00:41:47.559 --> 00:41:53.219
why we're here. Amen? Yes, are we all here? Yes,

00:41:53.260 --> 00:42:05.320
wrong point. Where did we stop? Okay, in six,

00:42:05.380 --> 00:42:09.079
right? Okay, perfect now. Good, good, good, good,

00:42:09.179 --> 00:42:13.670
good, good, good, good. So you see, Paul would

00:42:13.670 --> 00:42:15.650
have not been contradicting himself because all

00:42:15.650 --> 00:42:18.110
the while, Paul has been encouraging, pray in

00:42:18.110 --> 00:42:21.170
tongues, interpret, prophesy. Pray in tongues,

00:42:21.349 --> 00:42:23.389
interpret, prophesy. I would have loved that

00:42:23.389 --> 00:42:26.349
we read the whole chapter. Right? Probably that's

00:42:26.349 --> 00:42:28.530
the last thing we'll do. Please remind me. Remind

00:42:28.530 --> 00:42:30.530
me, please, that we're going to read the whole

00:42:30.530 --> 00:42:32.789
chapter and then we get into what we're going

00:42:32.789 --> 00:42:34.989
to do after learning all these things. Amen?

00:42:35.570 --> 00:42:45.159
Good. So now, So we now see that from his teaching,

00:42:45.320 --> 00:42:48.760
that tongues followed by interpretation is what?

00:42:48.880 --> 00:42:53.199
Is prophecy. It brings edification. Praise God.

00:42:53.500 --> 00:42:57.699
So we can say, when a believer prays in tongues

00:42:57.699 --> 00:43:01.519
and interprets the tongues, it serves the same

00:43:01.519 --> 00:43:04.420
purpose with prophecy. It's not that prophecy

00:43:04.420 --> 00:43:07.880
is greater than what? Than tongues and interpretation

00:43:07.880 --> 00:43:12.739
of tongues. When a believer prays in tongues,

00:43:12.940 --> 00:43:16.280
right? And then interpret the tongues, it serves

00:43:16.280 --> 00:43:20.800
what? The same purpose. With what? With prophecy.

00:43:21.039 --> 00:43:26.559
The same purpose. And what's the purpose? What's

00:43:26.559 --> 00:43:33.760
the purpose? Edification. Edification. Because

00:43:33.760 --> 00:43:37.039
verse 6 says, in verse 6 he said, if I come to

00:43:37.039 --> 00:43:40.820
you speaking with tongues, what shall I? Profit

00:43:40.820 --> 00:43:45.820
you. That word profit is the word Ophelio. Ophelio

00:43:45.820 --> 00:43:49.539
means useful, advantageous, benefit. Ophelio.

00:43:49.579 --> 00:44:03.619
O -P -H -E -L -E -O. O -P -H -E -L -E -O. Profit.

00:44:03.619 --> 00:44:07.420
That word profit is Ophelio, which implies useful,

00:44:07.880 --> 00:44:18.599
advantageous. So what Paul would be emphasizing,

00:44:18.900 --> 00:44:25.880
right? Is that our participation in tongues and

00:44:25.880 --> 00:44:31.239
interpretation of tongues brings advantage. Our

00:44:31.239 --> 00:44:33.780
participation in tongues and interpretation of

00:44:33.780 --> 00:44:37.480
tongues brings what? Advantage. Oh, it brings

00:44:37.480 --> 00:44:44.219
usefulness. Hallelujah. It brings benefits. Praise

00:44:44.219 --> 00:45:19.820
God. It brings benefits. Are we all here? So

00:45:19.820 --> 00:45:21.579
in that verse 6, he ended by saying something

00:45:21.579 --> 00:45:25.800
there. He said, Except I shall speak to you either

00:45:25.800 --> 00:45:30.900
by what? Revelation. By what? Knowledge. Or by

00:45:30.900 --> 00:45:35.320
what? Prophesying. Or by what? Or by doctrine.

00:45:36.320 --> 00:45:39.659
That word revelation is translated from the word

00:45:39.659 --> 00:45:44.300
apocalypses, which implies disclosure. Right?

00:45:45.500 --> 00:45:49.159
Disclosure. Apocalypses. To disclose something.

00:45:49.420 --> 00:45:59.960
Praise God. Apokalupsis. Which implies disclosure.

00:46:01.800 --> 00:46:04.500
So it means that interpretation carries what?

00:46:04.820 --> 00:46:09.019
Revelation. Interpretation carries what? Revelation.

00:46:09.420 --> 00:46:15.260
Disclosure. He said, oh, I speak to you by knowledge.

00:46:16.679 --> 00:46:22.599
Which we know. Gnosis. G -N -O -S -I -S. Right?

00:46:23.599 --> 00:46:28.460
Which implies insight or experiential knowledge

00:46:28.460 --> 00:46:32.639
of facts, places, people, events, time. Much

00:46:32.639 --> 00:46:38.320
more. God's words. Praise God. Knowledge. Gnosis.

00:46:38.440 --> 00:46:45.079
G -N -O -S -I -S. Which implies what? Insight.

00:46:47.780 --> 00:46:51.159
Experiential knowledge of facts. So insight to

00:46:51.159 --> 00:46:55.920
facts, places, people, events, time, but much

00:46:55.920 --> 00:47:00.079
more what? God's word. Praise God. Are we all

00:47:00.079 --> 00:47:02.760
here? So all these now, I'm saying them because

00:47:02.760 --> 00:47:06.860
you use the common language to be able to explain

00:47:06.860 --> 00:47:09.599
them so that the mind can understand them. Then

00:47:09.599 --> 00:47:13.800
doctrine. We know doctrine. Amen? Yes. What is

00:47:13.800 --> 00:47:18.099
doctrine? What is doctrine? Which means what?

00:47:19.679 --> 00:47:25.780
Is it any teaching? General teaching? What? Specific

00:47:25.780 --> 00:47:32.679
teaching. Do you teach in tongues? And you say,

00:47:32.719 --> 00:47:38.699
yes. Yes. Say, I receive it. What are you receiving?

00:47:40.059 --> 00:47:48.739
How do you teach? Explanation. Praise God. Are

00:47:48.739 --> 00:47:51.960
we all here? Yes. So what Paul is saying is that

00:47:51.960 --> 00:47:54.980
he said tongues and interpretation of tongues,

00:47:55.199 --> 00:48:00.239
this is the benefit. So when I come to you in

00:48:00.239 --> 00:48:04.480
tongues, I have to also interpret it. I have

00:48:04.480 --> 00:48:07.860
to bring it also. If I'm not going to bring it

00:48:07.860 --> 00:48:11.440
in tongues and interpret, then I prefer to bring

00:48:11.440 --> 00:48:14.840
it by what? Revelation. I prefer to bring it

00:48:14.840 --> 00:48:17.960
by what? Knowledge. I prefer to bring it by what?

00:48:18.300 --> 00:48:26.400
Doctrine. Hallelujah. Praise God. So are we all

00:48:26.400 --> 00:48:31.699
here? So, with all these things that we have

00:48:31.699 --> 00:48:36.079
said, we know now that it's the believer that

00:48:36.079 --> 00:48:38.699
prophesies and it's the believer that also what?

00:48:39.679 --> 00:48:45.910
Prays in tongues and interprets what? Tongues.

00:48:45.910 --> 00:48:51.369
1 Corinthians 14, 26. Verse 5. We've been reading

00:48:51.369 --> 00:48:58.090
verse 5. Verse 24. Verse 24. See verse 24. But

00:48:58.090 --> 00:49:00.829
if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth

00:49:00.829 --> 00:49:04.690
not, or one unlearned, what will happen to him?

00:49:06.050 --> 00:49:10.309
He is what? He is what? Why do you think he's

00:49:10.309 --> 00:49:27.630
convinced? Why do you think he's convinced? He

00:49:27.630 --> 00:49:38.150
will what? In what he understands. So you go

00:49:38.150 --> 00:49:41.150
to evangelize or you go, we are going to even

00:49:41.150 --> 00:49:44.849
have it now in the next few minutes now. Because

00:49:44.849 --> 00:49:47.059
we are going to pray. We'll take some time and

00:49:47.059 --> 00:49:50.579
pray. And then you're going to speak. You're

00:49:50.579 --> 00:49:53.820
going to give a word to someone here. Or to your

00:49:53.820 --> 00:49:58.500
brother or to your sister. Because the words

00:49:58.500 --> 00:50:01.340
you're going to give are what? Words that the

00:50:01.340 --> 00:50:13.420
mind can what? Understand. See 26. The same.

00:50:14.230 --> 00:50:16.829
Communication. How is it then brethren? When

00:50:16.829 --> 00:50:18.389
you come together, every one of you had a psalm,

00:50:18.389 --> 00:50:20.409
had a doctrine, had a tongue, had a revelation,

00:50:20.690 --> 00:50:25.449
had what? Interpretation. Let all what? Things

00:50:25.449 --> 00:50:35.809
be done unto a defying. Each one of you has an

00:50:35.809 --> 00:50:37.289
interpretation. Can you see that place in your

00:50:37.289 --> 00:50:42.650
verse? Each one of you. Each one of you. So when

00:50:42.650 --> 00:50:45.820
all of you, Come together. You know, the same

00:50:45.820 --> 00:50:48.380
way all of you have a tongue, all of you also

00:50:48.380 --> 00:50:51.840
have a what? Interpretation. See that verse carefully.

00:50:52.000 --> 00:51:03.820
He said, each one of you. Praise God. 31. Also,

00:51:03.940 --> 00:51:09.940
for ye may all what? Prophesy. Can you see? All,

00:51:10.019 --> 00:51:13.460
all, all, all, all, all. Each one of you. Every

00:51:13.460 --> 00:51:17.739
one of you, everyone, everyone, ye may all do

00:51:17.739 --> 00:51:23.039
what? Prophesy. So you all, all of us in this

00:51:23.039 --> 00:51:30.199
room have the ability to what? To prophesy. We've

00:51:30.199 --> 00:51:33.139
read that in 1 Corinthians 12, 10, right? We've

00:51:33.139 --> 00:51:36.360
read that in 1 Corinthians 14, 5, 14, 26, 14,

00:51:36.519 --> 00:51:41.900
27. You will see the same thing. Hallelujah.

00:51:43.099 --> 00:51:51.780
Praise God. Praise God. So now, verse 12 and

00:51:51.780 --> 00:51:56.699
13. Yes, it is beautiful. Verse 12 and 13. Even

00:51:56.699 --> 00:51:59.480
so ye, for as much as ye are zealous of spiritual

00:51:59.480 --> 00:52:04.340
gifts, seek that ye may excel to what? To the

00:52:04.340 --> 00:52:08.159
edifying of what? Can you see? Seek that ye may

00:52:08.159 --> 00:52:11.320
excel to what? To the edifying of the church.

00:52:11.420 --> 00:52:14.099
13, everybody. Wherefore, let's read together.

00:52:16.079 --> 00:52:24.900
Let him that pray that he may let him that speaketh

00:52:24.900 --> 00:52:29.780
in tongue pray that his pastor interprets. Is

00:52:29.780 --> 00:52:32.840
that what the scripture is saying? Let him that

00:52:32.840 --> 00:52:37.239
speaks in tongues pray that what his sister will

00:52:37.239 --> 00:52:41.079
interpret. Who does the interpretation? The speaker.

00:52:41.239 --> 00:52:44.679
Who does the speaking? The speaker. Right? Perfect.

00:52:44.860 --> 00:52:49.019
Hallelujah. But you see, that word there, he

00:52:49.019 --> 00:52:52.719
said that even so, for as much as ye are zealous,

00:52:53.000 --> 00:52:57.739
can you see zealous, right? Good. Perfect. You

00:52:57.739 --> 00:53:00.000
know, this church, you know, we read in verse

00:53:00.000 --> 00:53:03.000
1, chapter 1, verse 1, that they are not, they

00:53:03.000 --> 00:53:05.739
have never come behind, you know what? In no

00:53:05.739 --> 00:53:09.480
gifts. So, now, if Paul is even as much as ye

00:53:09.480 --> 00:53:14.989
are what? zealous. He's a child that desires

00:53:14.989 --> 00:53:18.429
the spirituals. Seek that ye may excel to the

00:53:18.429 --> 00:53:22.489
edifying of what? That what, even so, just similarly

00:53:22.489 --> 00:53:25.489
means that in the same way. Because he has been

00:53:25.489 --> 00:53:28.489
talking from verse 11. So as he's reading verse

00:53:28.489 --> 00:53:34.929
12, right? He say, even so, similarly, that what

00:53:34.929 --> 00:53:41.719
even so means, similarly, in the same way. Are

00:53:41.719 --> 00:53:44.940
you all with me? Are you all with me? Yeah, so

00:53:44.940 --> 00:53:48.539
in 12, in 11, he said, therefore I know, I know,

00:53:48.559 --> 00:53:51.039
if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall

00:53:51.039 --> 00:53:53.619
be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he

00:53:53.619 --> 00:53:56.840
that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me. Without

00:53:56.840 --> 00:53:59.360
interpretation now. Verse 12, see verse 12 now.

00:53:59.760 --> 00:54:08.300
Even so, similarly, in the same way, praise God.

00:54:11.150 --> 00:54:14.369
You should seek that you may excel to edify in

00:54:14.369 --> 00:54:18.409
what? Of the church. That what ye may excel is

00:54:18.409 --> 00:54:23.530
the word periso. Ye may excel is the word periso.

00:54:24.670 --> 00:54:28.750
Well, we are coming now to the last part of this

00:54:28.750 --> 00:54:32.269
foundation that we have laid on interpretation

00:54:32.269 --> 00:54:37.070
of tongues. That what ye may excel is periso.

00:54:37.150 --> 00:54:44.090
P -E -R -I -S -S -E -U -O. P -E -R -I -S -S -E

00:54:44.090 --> 00:54:49.989
-U -O. Berisu. And which implies to be in abundance,

00:54:50.170 --> 00:54:55.809
to be in excess. Hallelujah. To be in abundance,

00:54:56.250 --> 00:55:02.309
to be in what? To be in excess. Have we written

00:55:02.309 --> 00:55:05.070
that? 1 Corinthians, now that verse 13 says,

00:55:05.230 --> 00:55:08.170
Wherefore, let him that speaketh in an unknown

00:55:08.170 --> 00:55:12.579
tongue pray that he may what? The word that.

00:55:13.639 --> 00:55:19.320
The word that. Let him that. Speak it in an unknown

00:55:19.320 --> 00:55:23.139
tongue. Pray that he may interpret. That word

00:55:23.139 --> 00:55:30.139
is hina. H -I -N -A. Hina. Which means in order.

00:55:30.820 --> 00:55:37.519
So as. That word that. It means in order. So

00:55:37.519 --> 00:55:50.449
as. So when we say the one that, wherefore him

00:55:50.449 --> 00:55:52.750
that speaketh in an unknown tongue, what will

00:55:52.750 --> 00:55:56.730
happen what? Yeah, so he is the person. So as

00:55:56.730 --> 00:56:00.389
to what? Also interpret that tongue. We are coming

00:56:00.389 --> 00:56:04.590
to it now. So that word pray. Right? So when

00:56:04.590 --> 00:56:07.710
we read now, everybody now, stay with me. We

00:56:07.710 --> 00:56:09.590
have established that the word seek is what?

00:56:12.690 --> 00:56:15.849
Okay, yeme excel is what? To be in abundance,

00:56:15.969 --> 00:56:20.690
to be in excess or what? Yeah, excess or increase.

00:56:21.010 --> 00:56:23.789
So the word seek, please put this now. I forgot

00:56:23.789 --> 00:56:26.769
to tell us this now. The word seek. To seek,

00:56:26.849 --> 00:56:32.309
to excel. Seek. That word seek is Z -E -T -E

00:56:32.309 --> 00:56:37.730
-O. Z -E -T -E -O. Z -E -T -E -O. Which implies

00:56:37.730 --> 00:56:45.079
to desire strongly. To desire strongly. to be

00:56:45.079 --> 00:56:50.239
eager and forward about something or to go after

00:56:50.239 --> 00:56:54.579
something. That word seek is not a mere desire.

00:56:54.840 --> 00:56:59.480
That word seek is to desire something strongly.

00:57:05.880 --> 00:57:12.179
Are we all there? Are we all there? So now, having

00:57:12.179 --> 00:57:17.119
established that, Even so, similarly, for as

00:57:17.119 --> 00:57:19.760
much as zealous of spiritual gifts, that ye may

00:57:19.760 --> 00:57:24.480
what? Excel. That ye may be in abundance to the

00:57:24.480 --> 00:57:27.179
edifying of the what? Of the church. He didn't

00:57:27.179 --> 00:57:30.400
stop that communication there. How will that

00:57:30.400 --> 00:57:34.420
happen? How will you excel when it comes to edifying

00:57:34.420 --> 00:57:36.599
the church? That's what Paul would now say in

00:57:36.599 --> 00:57:40.619
verse 13. Praise God. How will I excel? How will

00:57:40.619 --> 00:57:44.349
I be in abundance when it comes to what? to the

00:57:44.349 --> 00:57:46.610
edifying of the church. Now, Paul will say in

00:57:46.610 --> 00:57:49.409
verse 13, when you pray in tongues, what should

00:57:49.409 --> 00:57:54.030
you do? You should also what? You should also

00:57:54.030 --> 00:57:57.289
pray that you should what? Interpret. That word

00:57:57.289 --> 00:58:00.829
pray is not saying that you should go, Lord,

00:58:00.949 --> 00:58:03.610
I need interpretation. I need interpretation.

00:58:04.110 --> 00:58:08.869
Oh, I think I did not get it. Interpretation

00:58:08.869 --> 00:58:11.030
did not come. You know, that's what's happening

00:58:11.030 --> 00:58:13.409
to us. When we say, can you give a what? You

00:58:13.409 --> 00:58:20.610
say, ah, sir, sir, there is no word. In fact,

00:58:20.650 --> 00:58:22.650
let me say something now, much more, stronger

00:58:22.650 --> 00:58:25.409
now. You know, you know, sometimes some people

00:58:25.409 --> 00:58:27.690
think when we say, can you give a word? And then

00:58:27.690 --> 00:58:33.230
they go, sure. Inside their mind, they say, ah,

00:58:33.250 --> 00:58:35.130
you should not come here to, you know, come.

00:58:35.250 --> 00:58:41.090
Ah, they will not get it. Ah, up to now, nothing,

00:58:41.170 --> 00:58:46.579
nothing, nothing. Ah, finally. Light don't show.

00:58:46.840 --> 00:58:52.380
Ah, my son, my son. Oh, I want you to do this.

00:58:52.579 --> 00:59:04.679
Hey. See, when you pray and then you give interpretation,

00:59:05.139 --> 00:59:08.780
it's not like you're using a charm to bring out

00:59:08.780 --> 00:59:12.139
the interpretation. Do you know? When we say

00:59:12.139 --> 00:59:14.260
you should give a word. You can come and don't

00:59:14.260 --> 00:59:16.199
need to pray. You can come and don't need to

00:59:16.199 --> 00:59:24.699
do. Finally. The Lord said. You don't need it.

00:59:28.039 --> 00:59:30.760
All we are just saying is. Every time you pray

00:59:30.760 --> 00:59:33.159
in tongues. There should be what? Interpretation.

00:59:33.320 --> 00:59:38.070
So which means. You can receive instruction in

00:59:38.070 --> 00:59:42.190
your heart without necessarily coming to do keko,

00:59:42.210 --> 00:59:44.789
ko, ko, ko, ko, ko, ko. Then interpretation comes.

00:59:47.269 --> 00:59:49.769
Because I realize it's almost like when we call

00:59:49.769 --> 00:59:52.090
people to come and give a word, they will now

00:59:52.090 --> 00:59:55.070
say, they're first now, they say, oh, that's

00:59:55.070 --> 00:59:57.809
Pastor Victor. I think my tongue should be higher.

00:59:59.070 --> 01:00:14.599
Rubber. What has come? No. Praise God. Why we

01:00:14.599 --> 01:00:17.860
are saying, or why you see, when we say give

01:00:17.860 --> 01:00:20.539
a word, and people just come and pray in tongues,

01:00:20.659 --> 01:00:22.900
and pray in tongues, they are just setting precedence

01:00:22.900 --> 01:00:27.119
to the interpretation. Simple. Amen? There is

01:00:27.119 --> 01:00:31.019
nothing more. Because so that you don't feel

01:00:31.019 --> 01:00:33.940
as though if I don't pray in tongues, the interpretation

01:00:33.940 --> 01:00:37.179
will not what? Will not come. Or when we say,

01:00:37.239 --> 01:00:40.019
give a word. Is it because, ah, I don't have

01:00:40.019 --> 01:00:43.380
a word to, but two minutes, two minutes. Ah,

01:00:44.059 --> 01:00:48.599
it has come. Say, I have the Holy Ghost in me.

01:00:49.639 --> 01:00:52.340
I have the Holy Ghost in me. I have the Holy

01:00:52.340 --> 01:00:54.719
Ghost in me. I have the instructions of the Holy

01:00:54.719 --> 01:00:59.849
Spirit in my spirit. Hallelujah. It's in your

01:00:59.849 --> 01:01:04.550
spirit. There are people that I was just chatting

01:01:04.550 --> 01:01:07.070
with them and then suddenly it was almost like

01:01:07.070 --> 01:01:10.690
my eyes just got open. And then the discussion

01:01:10.690 --> 01:01:14.030
changed. Has that happened to you? You're just

01:01:14.030 --> 01:01:17.130
talking and then suddenly so much, so much instructions,

01:01:17.269 --> 01:01:20.530
promptings just flood your heart. And then changes

01:01:20.530 --> 01:01:22.250
the direction of discussion. I've been telling

01:01:22.250 --> 01:01:24.130
them something. I say, I've been praying about

01:01:24.130 --> 01:01:27.079
it for a long time. How did you get it? By the

01:01:27.079 --> 01:01:28.920
Spirit of God. Did you pray in tongues? Did you

01:01:28.920 --> 01:01:32.440
type in tongues? Did you type it on the listening?

01:01:33.400 --> 01:01:37.199
And how did you give them the instruction? Or

01:01:37.199 --> 01:01:38.920
you told them, give me two minutes, please. Let

01:01:38.920 --> 01:01:42.940
me chat up. Praying in tongues before interpretation

01:01:42.940 --> 01:01:47.380
or giving a word is not chatting up. You're not

01:01:47.380 --> 01:01:51.900
doing it to chat up. Praise God. Are we all here?

01:01:52.360 --> 01:01:57.760
Are we all here? So now, when I pray in tongues,

01:01:57.980 --> 01:02:02.699
it's my spirit that is praying. We have seven

01:02:02.699 --> 01:02:05.679
minutes now. Okay, it has become six. When I

01:02:05.679 --> 01:02:08.340
pray in tongues, it's my spirit that is what?

01:02:09.099 --> 01:02:17.559
That is praying. It's my spirit that is praying.

01:02:21.699 --> 01:02:24.590
Sorry, I did not finish this part. Verse 13,

01:02:24.690 --> 01:02:27.289
what Paul is saying, and you do not remind me.

01:02:27.710 --> 01:02:34.369
Okay. Okay. So, in verse 13, what Paul was saying

01:02:34.369 --> 01:02:36.010
is not that you are going to pray to interpret,

01:02:36.210 --> 01:02:38.730
amen? What he was just saying is that what? He's

01:02:38.730 --> 01:02:40.989
saying that wherefore let him that speaketh in

01:02:40.989 --> 01:02:44.289
an unknown tongue, right? That won't pray there.

01:02:44.329 --> 01:02:46.150
He's not saying you should do what? You should

01:02:46.150 --> 01:02:49.389
go and pray for interpretation. Because already

01:02:49.389 --> 01:02:51.750
he has started a text. There's a communication

01:02:51.750 --> 01:02:54.570
from verse 12. Are we all here? And that communication

01:02:54.570 --> 01:02:58.550
is that what? To edify the church. So what he's

01:02:58.550 --> 01:03:00.610
saying is that, wherefore let him that speaketh

01:03:00.610 --> 01:03:03.769
in an unknown tongue also desire to what? To

01:03:03.769 --> 01:03:16.570
interpret. Praise God. Before you say, oh, let

01:03:16.570 --> 01:03:19.110
me pray. You don't need to. Interpretation is

01:03:19.110 --> 01:03:24.639
in your spirit. Hallelujah. Praise God. So when

01:03:24.639 --> 01:03:26.820
I pray in tongues, it's my spirit that is what?

01:03:27.699 --> 01:03:33.019
That is praying. Say my spirit. My spirit is

01:03:33.019 --> 01:03:36.880
praying when I pray in tongues. And I have interpretation

01:03:36.880 --> 01:03:43.219
for the tongues. The same thing we see him say

01:03:43.219 --> 01:03:50.659
in verse 2. How be it in the spirit he speaketh

01:03:50.659 --> 01:03:54.869
what? He speaketh mysteries. How be it in the

01:03:54.869 --> 01:03:59.090
spirit? The same we see in verse 14 and verse

01:03:59.090 --> 01:04:02.670
15. Wherefore, if I pray in an unknown tongue,

01:04:02.730 --> 01:04:05.389
my spirit, what? Pray it, but my understanding

01:04:05.389 --> 01:04:09.670
is, what is it then? I will pray with, and I

01:04:09.670 --> 01:04:12.389
will pray with the understanding also. I will

01:04:12.389 --> 01:04:16.269
sing with, and I will sing with the understanding

01:04:16.269 --> 01:04:22.210
also. So that word the spirit in verse 2 is the

01:04:22.210 --> 01:04:24.349
same that we see him talking about in verse 14

01:04:24.349 --> 01:04:29.510
and what? And verse 15. Praying in the spirit

01:04:29.510 --> 01:04:34.690
means praying in tongues. Are you hearing me?

01:04:35.289 --> 01:04:38.989
Praying in the spirit means what? Praying in

01:04:38.989 --> 01:04:50.900
what? In tongues. So can we be inspired by the

01:04:50.900 --> 01:04:58.739
Spirit to pray? Yes. Ephesians chapter 1 verse

01:04:58.739 --> 01:05:09.139
15. Ephesians chapter 1 verse 15. Wherefore I

01:05:09.139 --> 01:05:12.119
also, after I have heard of your faith in the

01:05:12.119 --> 01:05:15.579
Lord Jesus and love for all the saints. See what

01:05:15.579 --> 01:05:17.559
Paul will say. What is the next thing? After

01:05:17.559 --> 01:05:20.599
he has heard this. What is the next thing in

01:05:20.599 --> 01:05:25.260
verse 16? I cease not to do what? To give thanks

01:05:25.260 --> 01:05:29.360
for you, making mention of you in my what? In

01:05:29.360 --> 01:05:32.679
my prayers. This communication, was it in tongues?

01:05:33.659 --> 01:05:39.599
Was it in tongues? Was it in tongues? No, it

01:05:39.599 --> 01:05:45.059
wasn't in tongues. Amen? But what he had regarding

01:05:45.059 --> 01:05:48.809
their faith, right? Inspire him to be able to

01:05:48.809 --> 01:05:52.469
do what? To pray for them much more. Hallelujah.

01:05:53.289 --> 01:05:58.809
Praise God. Then now, Philippians 1 verse 3.

01:06:01.309 --> 01:06:05.889
Philippians 1 verse 3. I thank my God upon what?

01:06:07.130 --> 01:06:10.989
Remembrance of you. Always in every prayer of

01:06:10.989 --> 01:06:17.559
mine for you. For you. All making requests with

01:06:17.559 --> 01:06:22.159
what? With joy. Hallelujah. So when you see verse

01:06:22.159 --> 01:06:25.980
9. And this I pray that your love may abound

01:06:25.980 --> 01:06:28.940
yet more and more in the knowledge and in all

01:06:28.940 --> 01:06:33.840
what? And in all judgment. Verse 11. Be filled

01:06:33.840 --> 01:06:35.380
with the fruit of righteousness which are by

01:06:35.380 --> 01:06:38.199
Jesus Christ unto the glory and praise of what?

01:06:38.599 --> 01:06:43.219
Of God. Hallelujah. Ephesians 6 verse 18 now.

01:06:45.159 --> 01:06:47.940
So that we can put a context to it and then we

01:06:47.940 --> 01:06:54.280
see. Ephesians 6 verse 18. Yes. Ephesians 6 verse

01:06:54.280 --> 01:06:57.000
18. Are we all there? See now. Praying always

01:06:57.000 --> 01:07:00.719
with all what? Prayer and supplication where?

01:07:01.519 --> 01:07:04.579
In the spirit. First, he has established that

01:07:04.579 --> 01:07:09.300
praying always with all prayer. Then now he moves

01:07:09.300 --> 01:07:12.860
on to say and supplication in what? In the spirit.

01:07:14.440 --> 01:07:22.860
In the spirit. So he will say, if I pray in an

01:07:22.860 --> 01:07:25.559
unknown tongue, my spirit, what? Pray it, but

01:07:25.559 --> 01:07:29.119
my understanding is what? Is unfruitful. So every

01:07:29.119 --> 01:07:32.099
time you pray in the spirit, what is happening

01:07:32.099 --> 01:07:34.980
is that your understanding is what? Is unfruitful.

01:07:35.739 --> 01:07:38.639
That what your understanding is unfruitful is

01:07:38.639 --> 01:07:42.840
that your mind cannot be able to understand what

01:07:42.840 --> 01:07:46.329
is being uttered. So I will pray in the spirit

01:07:46.329 --> 01:07:50.289
and I will interpret that prayer. Praise God.

01:07:52.829 --> 01:07:54.730
Because some people say praying in the spirit

01:07:54.730 --> 01:07:57.449
means, you know, praying in English language.

01:07:57.590 --> 01:07:59.610
You are in the spirit. We know you are in the

01:07:59.610 --> 01:08:03.889
spirit. Hallelujah. Say I'm in the spirit. I'm

01:08:03.889 --> 01:08:07.010
in the spirit. I'm in the spirit. And when I

01:08:07.010 --> 01:08:10.449
pray, I pray by the spirit of God. You are in

01:08:10.449 --> 01:08:13.679
the spirit. Hallelujah. But when you pray in

01:08:13.679 --> 01:08:17.279
tongues, your understanding is what? Is unfruitful.

01:08:17.920 --> 01:08:19.979
That's prayers. For example, when we say, can

01:08:19.979 --> 01:08:23.060
we pray? I say, Father, Lord, thank you for life.

01:08:23.239 --> 01:08:25.420
Thank you for strength. Thank you for salvation.

01:08:25.739 --> 01:08:27.800
Thank you. What is happening is that you are

01:08:27.800 --> 01:08:33.840
praying in your understanding. Are you all with

01:08:33.840 --> 01:08:37.880
me? Are you all with me? When we say, sing in

01:08:37.880 --> 01:08:39.909
the spirit. That's the last thing that will hit

01:08:39.909 --> 01:08:43.029
us. When we say sing in the spirit, singing in

01:08:43.029 --> 01:08:51.390
the spirit is making melody with tongues. And

01:08:51.390 --> 01:08:54.369
when we say sing with your understanding, we

01:08:54.369 --> 01:08:57.689
are talking about singing with intelligible words

01:08:57.689 --> 01:09:19.050
that your mind can understand. Amen? Why? Because

01:09:19.050 --> 01:09:20.890
when we say you are praying with understanding,

01:09:20.970 --> 01:09:22.489
it means that you are praying with human language.

01:09:22.689 --> 01:09:24.609
That's the right word to use. You are praying

01:09:24.609 --> 01:09:28.090
with what? With human language. Praise God. In

01:09:28.090 --> 01:09:31.050
a language that is intelligible to the mind.

01:09:32.250 --> 01:09:34.449
So what Paul will say is that I will pray in

01:09:34.449 --> 01:09:37.369
the spirit. I will also pray in my what? In my

01:09:37.369 --> 01:09:40.039
understanding. I will sing in the spirit. I will

01:09:40.039 --> 01:09:42.680
also sing in what? In my understanding. Hallelujah.

01:09:44.720 --> 01:09:48.020
So when I sing in the spirit and I interpret

01:09:48.020 --> 01:09:52.039
that singing, it's already what? It brings what?

01:09:52.100 --> 01:09:54.399
Clarity, explanation to what? To the understanding.

01:09:55.119 --> 01:09:57.500
That's why I say my understanding is unfruitful.

01:09:58.020 --> 01:10:01.119
That idea your understanding is unfruitful is

01:10:01.119 --> 01:10:04.520
that your mind cannot what? Comprehend it. Hallelujah.

01:10:05.140 --> 01:10:10.060
Praise God. Praise God. Are we all here? Are

01:10:10.060 --> 01:10:17.619
we all here? So when he said, I will sing in

01:10:17.619 --> 01:10:21.239
the spirit, he's just making melody, right? You

01:10:21.239 --> 01:10:24.659
know, singing has melody. Yes or no? Yes. So

01:10:24.659 --> 01:10:27.100
when we say singing in the spirit, what we are

01:10:27.100 --> 01:10:30.579
just saying is that you are what? You are praying

01:10:30.579 --> 01:10:32.479
in tongues. Let me say it this way so that you

01:10:32.479 --> 01:10:34.340
can understand what I'm saying. You are praying

01:10:34.340 --> 01:10:37.699
in tongues, but with a melody. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

01:10:38.300 --> 01:10:42.880
This one is new again. It's not new. Praise God.

01:10:43.760 --> 01:10:46.380
You people follow all these people that sing

01:10:46.380 --> 01:10:51.699
with chants. Don't do like you don't know. Immediately

01:10:51.699 --> 01:10:54.260
they want to start it out. You know, as the piano

01:10:54.260 --> 01:11:00.300
just give one sound. It has now become like an

01:11:00.300 --> 01:11:03.720
anthem. Even though most of them don't even know

01:11:03.720 --> 01:11:06.800
what they are doing. He said, sir, why are you

01:11:06.800 --> 01:11:09.520
saying like that? Yes. Because what they now

01:11:09.520 --> 01:11:11.779
sing after saying that is not the interpretation

01:11:11.779 --> 01:11:17.600
of those tongues. Yes. How do I know it? By scriptures.

01:11:20.020 --> 01:11:25.699
Yes. Okay, chance, chance. Okay. It's a chance.

01:11:28.060 --> 01:11:32.779
Let's rise to our feet. As they rise to our feet,

01:11:32.779 --> 01:11:42.090
explore and smile. Huh? Huh? Reading of chapter

01:11:42.090 --> 01:11:47.949
14. Oh, I love you. Thank you. Let's rise to

01:11:47.949 --> 01:11:51.710
our feet and ready to stand. So when we say sing,

01:11:51.829 --> 01:11:57.210
sing in the spirit, right? When we say sing in

01:11:57.210 --> 01:11:59.989
the spirit, praise God. Maybe some of you have

01:11:59.989 --> 01:12:04.500
even done it. Amen. is that I'm going to sing

01:12:04.500 --> 01:12:07.380
with tongues. I'm going to make melody with tongues

01:12:07.380 --> 01:12:11.260
and then give meaning to it. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

01:12:11.899 --> 01:12:15.439
Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. He says,

01:12:15.479 --> 01:12:18.140
sir, but there is no keyboard now. You don't

01:12:18.140 --> 01:12:20.899
need keyboard. He says, sir, but I need guitar.

01:12:20.979 --> 01:12:24.899
Sir, you know, my type, I need guitar. One string

01:12:24.899 --> 01:12:28.180
instruments need to happen. Then the thing will

01:12:28.180 --> 01:12:33.600
now stay up. You don't need it. Say, I already

01:12:33.600 --> 01:12:38.079
have the melody that I need for singing in the

01:12:38.079 --> 01:13:14.920
spirit within me. Hallelujah. I'm already singing

01:13:14.920 --> 01:13:19.670
in the spirit As I'm doing like this, he says,

01:13:19.750 --> 01:13:21.930
sir, how about the interpretation? I can give

01:13:21.930 --> 01:13:24.510
accurate interpretation to what I'm singing right

01:13:24.510 --> 01:13:28.270
now. I'm just giving a practical for us so that

01:13:28.270 --> 01:13:31.390
we can understand. Is that I give melody to the

01:13:31.390 --> 01:13:34.710
tongues. Hallelujah. I give melody to what? To

01:13:34.710 --> 01:13:36.949
the tongues. So you can be, you can be on the

01:13:36.949 --> 01:13:39.149
streets and you are moving. You can be on the

01:13:39.149 --> 01:13:42.189
streets. Or one worry, I just perceive in my

01:13:42.189 --> 01:13:45.189
heart now, one worry wants to just swallow you

01:13:45.189 --> 01:14:08.720
up. I will never be afraid. For the Lord is holding

01:14:08.720 --> 01:14:12.060
my right hand. And he's saying, child, never

01:14:12.060 --> 01:14:15.600
be afraid. I am with you. I'm here to help you.

01:14:16.140 --> 01:14:19.140
I'm here to guide you. I'm here to instruct you.

01:14:21.239 --> 01:14:28.420
My joy is in you. My peace is in you. Your heart.

01:14:28.539 --> 01:14:31.159
You see. I'm already doing it. And I'm interpreting

01:14:31.159 --> 01:14:37.760
it. You say. How do I know? By the spirit of

01:14:37.760 --> 01:14:42.149
God. By the spirit of God. By the Spirit. This

01:14:42.149 --> 01:14:44.369
is interpretation. You are the one. Interpretation

01:14:44.369 --> 01:14:46.949
is inside you. By the Spirit of God. All that

01:14:46.949 --> 01:14:49.310
we have discussed is prophecy. If we have to

01:14:49.310 --> 01:14:51.750
teach prophecy, you realize that it's just going

01:14:51.750 --> 01:14:57.630
back over and over again. So the same way. Hallelujah.

01:14:58.430 --> 01:15:00.750
Hear me now. Hear me now. And then we're going

01:15:00.750 --> 01:15:04.010
to flow. Don't worry. Today, whatever is happening

01:15:04.010 --> 01:15:09.020
is conscious. Praise God. I realized some people

01:15:09.020 --> 01:15:10.859
are already stretching. They say, ah, today.

01:15:11.720 --> 01:15:14.279
Thank God. Tomorrow. You know, I also always

01:15:14.279 --> 01:15:19.819
say, tomorrow is the last day. Praise God. Where

01:15:19.819 --> 01:15:21.420
you should be saying, we need one more week.

01:15:24.199 --> 01:15:30.439
You see some people say, ah, ah. I told some

01:15:30.439 --> 01:15:33.260
people that we're going to pray for 36 hours.

01:15:35.439 --> 01:15:37.869
They wanted to run away. I said, no. We're going

01:15:37.869 --> 01:15:42.489
to do it. Is it non -stop? Of course. Non -stop.

01:15:43.649 --> 01:15:54.409
That's it. Yes. Yes. Non -stop. Just a few weeks

01:15:54.409 --> 01:15:56.829
ago, with some people, we prayed from morning,

01:15:56.930 --> 01:16:01.109
nine hours. Just a few weeks now. God had it

01:16:01.109 --> 01:16:04.430
six hours, just a few weeks ago. Just a few days

01:16:04.430 --> 01:16:12.100
ago. Non -stop. Non -stop. Non -stop. Non -stop.

01:16:14.659 --> 01:16:17.479
So tell me, how is this pharmacy going to die?

01:16:17.619 --> 01:16:20.399
How is it going to die now? What will kill it?

01:16:22.560 --> 01:16:27.119
Nothing will kill it. Nothing. Who told you to

01:16:27.119 --> 01:16:28.920
do it? We just got a prompting in our heart.

01:16:28.979 --> 01:16:32.159
It seemed good in our heart. Let's do it. Oh.

01:16:32.510 --> 01:16:34.609
I just got a word for somebody. Let doing the

01:16:34.609 --> 01:16:36.510
things of the Spirit seem good to your heart.

01:16:37.470 --> 01:16:40.890
At your own location, let it seem good to your

01:16:40.890 --> 01:16:44.689
heart. You're staying in Lefkosha one of these

01:16:44.689 --> 01:16:46.890
days. Say, you know what? Every day, I'm going

01:16:46.890 --> 01:16:48.810
to leave my house. I'm going to leave that bed.

01:16:48.930 --> 01:16:52.470
I'm going to pace around the whole area. I'll

01:16:52.470 --> 01:16:56.890
be praying in tongues. I'll be singing. I'm going

01:16:56.890 --> 01:16:59.470
to sing. Let me tell you something in case you

01:16:59.470 --> 01:17:01.560
don't know. There is no place I've not trekked

01:17:01.560 --> 01:17:08.199
in this Lefkosha. There is no place. I tell you

01:17:08.199 --> 01:17:11.760
this. My wife, when we move around, I tell her,

01:17:11.819 --> 01:17:14.359
I say, you see, from Merit, I've trekked to Gonyele.

01:17:16.859 --> 01:17:18.199
Most of the time, Pastor Chidi says, most of

01:17:18.199 --> 01:17:19.899
them that we stay together, I say, I'm coming,

01:17:19.920 --> 01:17:22.479
I need to just go around and this thing. There

01:17:22.479 --> 01:17:24.239
is no place I've not trekked in this Lefkosha.

01:17:25.720 --> 01:17:27.560
So sometimes I say, they say, walk. He says,

01:17:27.659 --> 01:17:31.600
my leg. What is happening to your leg? He says,

01:17:31.600 --> 01:17:34.420
what are you doing? Praying, praying, praying.

01:17:35.319 --> 01:17:38.159
I'm in CIU. There is no place in CIU where I

01:17:38.159 --> 01:17:43.060
have not walked praying. My wife is here. She

01:17:43.060 --> 01:17:44.800
will tell you, for the past two, three months,

01:17:44.880 --> 01:17:48.199
we've been praying every night. Every, the whole

01:17:48.199 --> 01:17:52.140
of CIU. Every night. One hour, at least 15, 20

01:17:52.140 --> 01:17:56.680
minutes. Every night, praying. What will kill

01:17:56.680 --> 01:18:03.899
this fire now? What will kill it? Nothing can

01:18:03.899 --> 01:18:07.039
kill it. Let me tell you, Jesus will ensure that

01:18:07.039 --> 01:18:15.979
nothing kills it. He says, you love the things

01:18:15.979 --> 01:18:17.800
of the spirit. He does not love the things of

01:18:17.800 --> 01:18:19.539
the spirit. You don't know what he's doing regarding

01:18:19.539 --> 01:18:21.720
the things of the spirit. What you're just seeing

01:18:21.720 --> 01:18:27.380
there is just the outside part. God is using

01:18:27.380 --> 01:18:30.479
you for the work of ministry. Hallelujah. And

01:18:30.479 --> 01:18:37.359
those things cannot happen on your bed. Those

01:18:37.359 --> 01:18:40.060
things are what is experienced here. You just

01:18:40.060 --> 01:18:42.119
sit down from morning to now. You are shaking

01:18:42.119 --> 01:18:44.359
body. You are doing like this. So you now, when

01:18:44.359 --> 01:18:46.619
we use organized camp meeting and you want to

01:18:46.619 --> 01:18:48.539
do work of ministry, we will take nations. We

01:18:48.539 --> 01:18:50.439
will take nations. This is how you make nations.

01:18:53.930 --> 01:18:55.770
We said we'll do nine to nine. He said, ah, nine

01:18:55.770 --> 01:19:02.449
to nine. Oh boy. Say, I do greater works than

01:19:02.449 --> 01:19:11.909
the pastors of NECF. Ah, say it now. Are you

01:19:11.909 --> 01:19:18.609
people unbelievers? Say, I do greater works than

01:19:18.609 --> 01:19:22.520
the pastors of NECF. Yeah, so if we are organizing

01:19:22.520 --> 01:19:25.600
catatismus from 9 to now, you're going to organize

01:19:25.600 --> 01:19:35.039
it 24 hours. 6 to 6, 6 to 7, 6 to 12. What are

01:19:35.039 --> 01:19:39.159
you telling me? It was the last catatismus year

01:19:39.159 --> 01:19:41.060
that we were playing. And one of the pictures

01:19:41.060 --> 01:19:42.699
that I got here, and one of the instructions

01:19:42.699 --> 01:19:45.239
I got, that the next place God is going to take

01:19:45.239 --> 01:19:47.399
us to, one of the things we're going to establish,

01:19:47.659 --> 01:19:49.840
that we're going to go around every university.

01:19:51.079 --> 01:19:55.899
Every university will not escape us. Every university

01:19:55.899 --> 01:20:02.680
will not escape us. You are doing ministry like

01:20:02.680 --> 01:20:04.579
this. You are here. You are still struggling.

01:20:04.819 --> 01:20:10.600
Oh boy. See, we're going to boil. We're going

01:20:10.600 --> 01:20:13.619
to boil hot regarding these matters. Praise God.

01:20:14.140 --> 01:20:15.779
And that is what we're going to do. The things

01:20:15.779 --> 01:20:17.560
that we're going to do in the next one hour,

01:20:17.619 --> 01:20:21.060
30 minutes or 20 minutes. When we say pray in

01:20:21.060 --> 01:20:23.720
tongues, pray. When you return home, because

01:20:23.720 --> 01:20:25.220
tomorrow we're going to pray from morning till

01:20:25.220 --> 01:20:27.479
evening. In fact, I don't know whether there

01:20:27.479 --> 01:20:30.260
is five boss or what boss is the last boss. If

01:20:30.260 --> 01:20:31.960
the last boss is 10 boss, we're going to take

01:20:31.960 --> 01:20:42.579
it to 10. You see? This night, as we're going

01:20:42.579 --> 01:20:45.039
to do the things, this night, when you go home,

01:20:45.079 --> 01:20:47.260
drop your Bible, take some time out later after

01:20:47.260 --> 01:20:50.289
resting, eating, buffing, right? Later in the

01:20:50.289 --> 01:20:52.510
night, take some time out. Say, Pastor Custon,

01:20:52.550 --> 01:20:54.770
let me try out something. I'm going to take...

01:20:54.770 --> 01:20:58.609
Yes, I'll take time out this night. I'm going

01:20:58.609 --> 01:21:01.050
to leave everything. I'll walk from my house

01:21:01.050 --> 01:21:06.449
to Alakoi. You know? You see? Somebody say, Gee,

01:21:06.569 --> 01:21:13.489
I walk to Alakoi. Praying. I can show you. He's

01:21:13.489 --> 01:21:17.670
there. I got the instruction. I wrote. I got

01:21:17.670 --> 01:21:19.029
the instruction even when I didn't know these

01:21:19.029 --> 01:21:26.050
locations. So I'm going to do it. Take time.

01:21:26.210 --> 01:21:27.970
Don't pray in English. Let me encourage you,

01:21:27.989 --> 01:21:29.529
please. Don't pray in your understanding. Pray

01:21:29.529 --> 01:21:38.300
in. Pray in. And. Interpret. Please drop your

01:21:38.300 --> 01:21:40.220
watch. Drop your phone. Because some of you want

01:21:40.220 --> 01:22:02.060
to time yourselves. Before you open your eyes.

01:22:03.279 --> 01:22:12.520
You are the runabout. Let me tell you, something

01:22:12.520 --> 01:22:15.699
is going to change inside you. See, let me tell

01:22:15.699 --> 01:22:18.239
you, you're going to feel you're already moving

01:22:18.239 --> 01:22:22.739
towards being you. You say, yes, you have not

01:22:22.739 --> 01:22:28.119
experienced it. I challenge you by the spirit

01:22:28.119 --> 01:22:32.939
of God. exercise yourselves much more in the

01:22:32.939 --> 01:22:35.500
things of the Spirit. If you want to see, many

01:22:35.500 --> 01:22:37.279
people have asked me, sir, how is it that you

01:22:37.279 --> 01:22:39.640
know things just like that? I don't just know

01:22:39.640 --> 01:22:41.539
things because I'm doing nothing about them.

01:22:42.000 --> 01:22:44.619
How do our pastors just know things? It's not

01:22:44.619 --> 01:22:48.720
like that. Pray more, pray more, pray more, pray

01:22:48.720 --> 01:22:52.260
more, pray more, pray more by the Spirit of God.

01:22:55.460 --> 01:23:07.779
It should not be casual. Matthew, remember that

01:23:07.779 --> 01:23:10.819
night that we splitted ourselves over Lefkosha?

01:23:12.079 --> 01:23:14.020
You know the other day I was driving around that

01:23:14.020 --> 01:23:16.079
Presumptual Palace? I said, we prayed about this

01:23:16.079 --> 01:23:20.640
land. We prayed everywhere here. Pray, pray,

01:23:20.699 --> 01:23:23.520
pray. So it should not just be just like that.

01:23:23.739 --> 01:23:26.720
Are we ready to do that? Are we ready to do that?

01:23:27.130 --> 01:23:29.670
You see, you are taking this thing lightly. You

01:23:29.670 --> 01:23:31.609
are taking your tomorrow lightly. You are taking

01:23:31.609 --> 01:23:33.829
the work of God in your life lightly. You are

01:23:33.829 --> 01:23:38.250
taking, Pastor Chidi is here. 2022, I had so

01:23:38.250 --> 01:23:42.289
many dreams. I prayed about them. I landed in

01:23:42.289 --> 01:23:48.970
Nigeria and all of them were a reality. You don't

01:23:48.970 --> 01:23:51.789
love ministry? You can't say you love Jesus and

01:23:51.789 --> 01:23:54.920
you don't love the work of faith. Because loving

01:23:54.920 --> 01:24:02.399
Jesus is equal to doing ministry. And doing ministry

01:24:02.399 --> 01:24:05.779
starts from how you participate in doing these

01:24:05.779 --> 01:24:13.060
things. It's how you go on with fire. There is

01:24:13.060 --> 01:24:15.739
no way in the scriptures that we are called nominal,

01:24:16.020 --> 01:24:19.520
normal Christian life. No. You realize that we

01:24:19.520 --> 01:24:24.300
are all supernatural. We are spiritual. Have

01:24:24.300 --> 01:24:28.300
you ever met any unserious native doctor? No,

01:24:28.319 --> 01:24:30.000
tell me. Have you ever seen any unserious native

01:24:30.000 --> 01:24:36.800
doctor? Even the one I met in this Cyprus, they

01:24:36.800 --> 01:24:46.239
threaten people. Say I'm spiritual. You are not

01:24:46.239 --> 01:24:48.079
too young. I just heard this now. Somebody say

01:24:48.079 --> 01:24:50.119
I'm young. You are not too young for the work

01:24:50.119 --> 01:24:54.810
of ministry. And it's going to happen here. This

01:24:54.810 --> 01:24:57.569
is the time to catch the fire. This is the time

01:24:57.569 --> 01:24:59.710
to pray more. This is the time to desire more.

01:24:59.890 --> 01:25:01.930
This is the time to see more. See more with the

01:25:01.930 --> 01:25:04.109
eyes of faith. Desire more with the eyes of faith.

01:25:04.250 --> 01:25:08.229
Can we pray in the Holy Ghost? You tell me you

01:25:08.229 --> 01:25:10.310
are young. You tell me that you are this. You

01:25:10.310 --> 01:25:17.470
tell me you are that. No! We have this deposit

01:25:17.470 --> 01:25:25.729
in our insides. We see fathers. We see mothers.

01:25:26.090 --> 01:25:29.149
We see children. No, no, no, no, no, no, no,

01:25:29.149 --> 01:25:32.710
no, no, no, no. We know better. We have received

01:25:32.710 --> 01:25:46.470
better. Please don't be doing... Boil with fire.

01:25:46.630 --> 01:26:09.739
Boil, boil, boil, boil, boil. Tomorrow, people

01:26:09.739 --> 01:26:11.659
will say we really contended for the work of

01:26:11.659 --> 01:26:15.399
faith. Pastor Victor gave us a testimony about

01:26:15.399 --> 01:26:18.779
his grandfather. Won one soul and the one soul

01:26:18.779 --> 01:26:21.960
became a huge vessel in God's hands. One man,

01:26:22.000 --> 01:26:28.579
15 years, one soul. Doing the same thing for

01:26:28.579 --> 01:26:33.659
15 years. You cannot just wake up and arrive

01:26:33.659 --> 01:26:37.399
like that. No. Without all this spiritual discipline

01:26:37.399 --> 01:26:43.460
and equipping, the work of God is in our hands

01:26:43.460 --> 01:26:46.739
and we are taking it. We are taking it. We are

01:26:46.739 --> 01:26:55.880
boiling fervently over it. You are not young.

01:26:56.520 --> 01:27:00.020
Oh no, I don't believe you are young. You are

01:27:00.020 --> 01:27:05.310
not young. It has nothing to do with your age.

01:27:05.449 --> 01:27:08.329
It has all to do with the knowledge that the

01:27:08.329 --> 01:27:14.670
Holy Ghost is in our insides. We're thankful
