Stay with us until 00:00:13.939 --> 00:00:17.879 the end for a rewarding experience. Let's dive 00:00:17.879 --> 00:00:25.600 right in. This morning I got to the office and 00:00:25.600 --> 00:00:29.399 then a thought of one woman came into my heart. 00:00:30.219 --> 00:00:35.399 And I sent her a voice note. So I sent her the 00:00:35.399 --> 00:00:39.700 voice note. And I told her, sorry, I've not been 00:00:39.700 --> 00:00:42.439 able to reach out because of this and this and 00:00:42.439 --> 00:00:44.039 this. How are you doing? How is your family, 00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:47.759 your husband and children? You know? And I said, 00:00:47.859 --> 00:00:50.820 by the way, the last week I was trying to reach 00:00:50.820 --> 00:00:52.500 out to you so that if you are around, we could 00:00:52.500 --> 00:00:59.479 see what's the updates regarding your work. So 00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:03.399 she sent a feedback, a voice note to me, giving 00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:08.579 me the feedback about the walk and ETC. So I 00:01:08.579 --> 00:01:12.959 now sent a voice note to her. It was a word of 00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:15.500 knowledge, hallelujah, and a word of wisdom joined 00:01:15.500 --> 00:01:18.819 together. And I sent a voice note to her, and 00:01:18.819 --> 00:01:22.060 I told her, this is what I feel regarding this, 00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:25.140 this, this, this, this, this. But, you know, 00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:27.659 if you can go this way and this way and this 00:01:27.659 --> 00:01:30.280 way, You know, you can be able to have this and 00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:33.980 this and this and this and this. And I came home 00:01:33.980 --> 00:01:38.680 and she sent a voice note. So when I sent the 00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:41.540 voice note to her, she was on her way to see 00:01:41.540 --> 00:01:46.200 her boss. And so the voice note I sent to her 00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:51.260 was already what the boss has made as the solution 00:01:51.260 --> 00:01:58.409 to the decision she should make. Amen? She went 00:01:58.409 --> 00:02:01.069 there and they told her all the updates she needed 00:02:01.069 --> 00:02:04.629 to know. And they gave her one week to make decision 00:02:04.629 --> 00:02:09.909 about it. Amen. So she sent me the feedback and 00:02:09.909 --> 00:02:14.590 I told her it's okay, no problem. Later in the 00:02:14.590 --> 00:02:17.469 evening, I'm going to call her. Praise God. And 00:02:17.469 --> 00:02:21.330 we will talk about it. Amen. And we believe that 00:02:21.330 --> 00:02:23.210 the Holy Spirit will give her direction from 00:02:23.210 --> 00:02:28.360 it. Praise God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. So there 00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:32.900 was no way on earth, humanly possible, that I 00:02:32.900 --> 00:02:38.060 would be able to know that. Never. In fact, she's 00:02:38.060 --> 00:02:40.139 not even supposed to come into my thought patterns. 00:02:41.659 --> 00:02:45.460 I should be thinking about my wife. And then 00:02:45.460 --> 00:02:48.539 the job I'm doing. The bulky work they've given 00:02:48.539 --> 00:02:50.740 me in the office. Those should be what should 00:02:50.740 --> 00:02:57.069 be consuming my head. Hallelujah. I just answered 00:02:57.069 --> 00:03:00.770 someone's question now. Oftentimes, the Spirit 00:03:00.770 --> 00:03:04.550 of God brings people to your heart. Randomly. 00:03:05.750 --> 00:03:08.449 Not that you spoke, not that you thought about 00:03:08.449 --> 00:03:11.870 them. He just brings their names to you sometimes. 00:03:12.289 --> 00:03:15.710 Sometimes he flashes their faces to you. Amen. 00:03:20.289 --> 00:03:24.159 When that experience happens to you, and you 00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:26.900 cannot yet find more instruction to why the names 00:03:26.900 --> 00:03:29.439 are coming, please, let me counsel you by the 00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:32.780 Spirit of God. Start praying for them. Do you 00:03:32.780 --> 00:03:35.960 hear what I just said? Start what? Start praying 00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:39.039 for them. Hallelujah. When names come to your 00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:42.099 heart, when people come to your heart, when places 00:03:42.099 --> 00:03:45.319 come to your heart, start what? Praying for them. 00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:53.539 Praise God. Hallelujah. Good. Where did we get 00:03:53.539 --> 00:03:56.780 there? I don't know. So from believers meeting, 00:03:57.080 --> 00:03:59.639 right? I'll just say this. We don't need to write 00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:02.620 this. Just hear me. From believers meeting and 00:04:02.620 --> 00:04:05.800 from this meeting, hallelujah, from now until 00:04:05.800 --> 00:04:09.500 cataclysmos, we are going to have people full 00:04:09.500 --> 00:04:13.939 of joy in all the services. Hallelujah. Glory 00:04:13.939 --> 00:04:17.699 to God. We will have people that suddenly will 00:04:17.699 --> 00:04:20.680 just get themselves into prayers and prayers 00:04:20.680 --> 00:04:24.240 and prayers and prayers and prayers into the 00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:28.680 next day. Hallelujah. We will have people that 00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:32.920 will just have burdens, desires for the demonstration 00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:36.639 of the things of the Spirit. We will have people 00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:40.120 that through their hands, healing miracles are 00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:44.680 happening. Hallelujah. We will have people suddenly 00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:50.199 just stuck in one place and they are having visions 00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:56.040 and then trances by the Spirit of God. Hallelujah. 00:04:57.699 --> 00:05:01.980 We will have people get into places and then 00:05:01.980 --> 00:05:05.620 pray for people and baptism of the Holy Ghost 00:05:05.620 --> 00:05:09.220 will come instantly upon them with evidence of 00:05:09.220 --> 00:05:12.889 speaking in tongues. Hallelujah. Praise God. 00:05:13.310 --> 00:05:15.610 That is why we are having these meetings that 00:05:15.610 --> 00:05:20.670 we are having. Our brother said something. He 00:05:20.670 --> 00:05:23.589 said often when the supernatural happens, you 00:05:23.589 --> 00:05:27.089 can never in any point connect it to the natural. 00:05:27.970 --> 00:05:33.089 Hallelujah. You will know that this is indeed 00:05:33.089 --> 00:05:37.810 a walking of the spirit of God. Amen. Praise 00:05:37.810 --> 00:05:45.730 God. So today. Today, by God's grace, we are 00:05:45.730 --> 00:05:50.230 handling something. Believers' meetings are meetings 00:05:50.230 --> 00:05:53.470 for speaking believers. You can write this down 00:05:53.470 --> 00:05:55.569 now. That's what we're treating today. And then 00:05:55.569 --> 00:05:58.050 before we get into what we'll get. Believers' 00:05:58.209 --> 00:06:02.370 meetings, Holy Ghost meetings, are meetings for 00:06:02.370 --> 00:06:08.889 speaking believers. Believers' meetings... and 00:06:08.889 --> 00:06:16.889 meetings for what? For speaking believers. Believers 00:06:16.889 --> 00:06:21.050 are ought to use their tongue. Hallelujah. Praise 00:06:21.050 --> 00:06:27.230 God. You remember on Sunday we wrote something 00:06:27.230 --> 00:06:30.009 that the Holy Ghost demonstrated himself in what? 00:06:30.230 --> 00:06:36.389 Number one, in what? In utterances. So today's 00:06:36.389 --> 00:06:39.689 meeting, We are writing a subtopic that believers 00:06:39.689 --> 00:06:43.329 meetings are meetings for what? For speaking 00:06:43.329 --> 00:06:47.790 what? Believers. Can you say believers meeting? 00:06:49.209 --> 00:06:52.949 Believers meetings are meetings for me to speak. 00:06:53.649 --> 00:06:57.730 Are meetings for me to declare the mind of God, 00:06:57.949 --> 00:07:02.589 the will of God, the purposes of God that the 00:07:02.589 --> 00:07:07.209 local church is edified. Glory to God. Hallelujah. 00:07:09.410 --> 00:07:13.129 So we say the Holy Ghost in believers' meetings 00:07:13.129 --> 00:07:17.910 demonstrates himself in utterances. And when 00:07:17.910 --> 00:07:23.290 we say in utterances, we mean that things are 00:07:23.290 --> 00:07:26.870 going to be said under the inspiration of the 00:07:26.870 --> 00:07:30.290 Holy Ghost. Let me repeat myself. When we say 00:07:30.290 --> 00:07:33.689 the Holy Spirit will demonstrate himself in utterances, 00:07:33.949 --> 00:07:38.370 we mean that these words are going to be what? 00:07:38.930 --> 00:07:43.250 Set under the inspiration of who? Of the Holy 00:07:43.250 --> 00:07:46.509 Ghost. You see, we didn't say they are going 00:07:46.509 --> 00:07:49.689 to be set by the believer. We said they are going 00:07:49.689 --> 00:07:52.810 to be set under the what? Inspiration of who? 00:07:53.250 --> 00:08:01.160 Of the Holy Ghost. What do we mean by that? We 00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:04.899 mean that the Holy Ghost will be speaking through 00:08:04.899 --> 00:08:09.680 believers in such a meeting. Praise God. We mean 00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:12.259 that the Holy Ghost will be what? Will be speaking 00:08:12.259 --> 00:08:15.660 through who? Through the believers. So who will 00:08:15.660 --> 00:08:20.180 be inspired to speak? Who will be inspired to 00:08:20.180 --> 00:08:23.839 speak? No, no, say I. Who will be inspired to 00:08:23.839 --> 00:08:28.189 speak? So who has the choice to speak? Who will 00:08:28.189 --> 00:08:31.990 act on His will to speak? I, the believer. Hallelujah. 00:08:33.549 --> 00:08:36.649 So in Holy Ghost meeting, the Spirit of God is 00:08:36.649 --> 00:08:41.090 speaking and you are the one that He is speaking 00:08:41.090 --> 00:08:45.789 through. Amen? Hallelujah. Let me repeat myself 00:08:45.789 --> 00:08:48.929 again. In believer's meeting, the Spirit of God 00:08:48.929 --> 00:08:52.289 is what? Is speaking, but He is speaking through 00:08:52.289 --> 00:08:56.409 who? He is speaking through me. Why? Because 00:08:56.409 --> 00:08:59.090 the Spirit of God dwells where? In the inside 00:08:59.090 --> 00:09:02.330 of me. Our brother says something. Often when 00:09:02.330 --> 00:09:04.909 God will speak with the prophets, they are not 00:09:04.909 --> 00:09:07.710 doubting whether it's the voice of God or not 00:09:07.710 --> 00:09:13.710 the what? The voice of God. He will speak with 00:09:13.710 --> 00:09:18.129 Moses as unto face to face what? Communication. 00:09:18.809 --> 00:09:23.990 Praise God. But today, he does not need to speak 00:09:23.990 --> 00:09:27.200 from the heavens again. He speaks from where? 00:09:28.139 --> 00:09:31.600 He speaks from where? From my inside. Hallelujah. 00:09:31.960 --> 00:09:35.639 Can you say, I have a hearing ear by the Spirit 00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:39.980 of God. I have a seeing eye by the Spirit of 00:09:39.980 --> 00:09:43.440 God. I have a perceiving heart by the Spirit 00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:46.200 of God. Can we turn that to prayers in two minutes, 00:09:46.299 --> 00:09:54.500 everybody? Can we turn that to prayers? Because 00:09:54.500 --> 00:09:56.759 the things we are doing in the next minutes will 00:09:56.759 --> 00:09:59.500 require us to pay attention to hear. It will 00:09:59.500 --> 00:10:02.159 require us to pay attention to see. It will require 00:10:02.159 --> 00:10:04.480 us to pay attention to perceive. Can you pray 00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:07.000 for yourself? I have a hearing ear by the Spirit. 00:10:07.659 --> 00:10:10.740 I have a seeing eye by the Spirit of God. I have 00:10:10.740 --> 00:10:24.549 a perceiving heart by the Spirit of God. Oh, 00:10:24.629 --> 00:10:29.690 thank you, Holy Ghost. Thank you, Jesus. In Jesus' 00:10:29.809 --> 00:10:34.250 name we pray. So, when we say the Spirit of God 00:10:34.250 --> 00:10:38.529 demonstrates Himself in utterance, we mean He 00:10:38.529 --> 00:10:41.330 demonstrates Himself in tongues. Please write 00:10:41.330 --> 00:10:44.769 this down. He demonstrates Himself in what? In 00:10:44.769 --> 00:10:52.610 tongues. In tongues and interpretation of tongues. 00:10:56.540 --> 00:11:00.519 He demonstrated himself in tongues. Tongues and 00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:04.200 interpretation of tongues. And then in prophecy. 00:11:06.539 --> 00:11:08.600 That's what we had in the utterance gifts. Amen. 00:11:10.100 --> 00:11:13.320 In tongues. Tongues and interpretation of tongues. 00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:18.059 And in what? And in prophecy. Hallelujah. Praise 00:11:18.059 --> 00:11:24.340 God. Amen. 1 Corinthians chapter 12 from verse 00:11:24.340 --> 00:11:31.019 7. Let's run this and then we pray for one another 00:11:31.019 --> 00:11:34.600 and minister one to another. 1 Corinthians chapter 00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:38.899 12 from verse 7. But the manifestation of the 00:11:38.899 --> 00:11:42.740 Spirit is what? Is given to every man to profit 00:11:42.740 --> 00:11:45.980 with all. Hallelujah. The manifestation of the 00:11:45.980 --> 00:11:49.320 Spirit is given to me to do what? To bring profit 00:11:49.320 --> 00:11:52.299 to Pastor Victor. To bring profit to Pastor Emmanuel. 00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:55.700 To bring profit to Pastor Takunda. The manifestation. 00:11:56.019 --> 00:12:00.139 Hallelujah. So, prophecy is to what? Profit. 00:12:00.980 --> 00:12:03.200 Tongues and interpretation of tongues is to what? 00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:07.059 Profit. So, when the Spirit of God speaks through 00:12:07.059 --> 00:12:10.820 me, it's because He wants to bring what? Profit. 00:12:11.740 --> 00:12:15.019 You remember we read in Hebrews chapter 10, right? 00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:19.360 That we provoke one another unto what? On to 00:12:19.360 --> 00:12:24.960 love and what? And good works. Please, sir. When 00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:29.360 I say I've done a business and then I've gained 00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:34.120 from the business and I come to share the profit 00:12:34.120 --> 00:12:37.639 from you, with you, what do you think I'm trying 00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:43.980 to do?

In Nigeria, 00:13:05.620 --> 00:13:07.740 there is something that we use. Just show me 00:13:07.740 --> 00:13:12.539 some love. You know, when you hear... Pastor 00:13:12.539 --> 00:13:16.940 Victor, please, show me some love. Do you know 00:13:16.940 --> 00:13:19.960 what that means? I will not say the people that 00:13:19.960 --> 00:13:25.120 always use that kind of statement. Amen? When 00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:27.860 I come and share profits with Pastor Emmanuel 00:13:27.860 --> 00:13:33.820 from a business that I've done, right? And I 00:13:33.820 --> 00:13:38.600 call his line. I say, how far? Don't use this 00:13:38.600 --> 00:13:40.240 thing though. It's only us that use it. And I 00:13:40.240 --> 00:13:43.320 say, Emi. I say, Emi, how far? Where are you 00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:46.169 there? He said, I just came, I said, please branch, 00:13:46.230 --> 00:13:49.309 branch CIU. I said, why Allah don't show like 00:13:49.309 --> 00:13:53.809 that? And the Allah, let me say this, because 00:13:53.809 --> 00:13:56.669 it makes sense to you. And the Allah, some little 00:13:56.669 --> 00:14:01.409 profit of $500 ,000. And I'm just led in my heart 00:14:01.409 --> 00:14:07.049 to just, you know, show you some love. Give you 00:14:07.049 --> 00:14:11.129 like, let's say, $200 ,000. And you see, Pastor, 00:14:11.230 --> 00:14:18.610 I might just do like this. Do you think Pastor 00:14:18.610 --> 00:14:20.529 Emma will think I hate him that's why I'm doing 00:14:20.529 --> 00:14:29.309 that? Let me tell you. If you want, the whole 00:14:29.309 --> 00:14:32.269 of you should gather and advise him that I will 00:14:32.269 --> 00:14:35.450 soon kill him. He will say, let me what? Kill 00:14:35.450 --> 00:14:45.200 him. How about with the things of the spirit? 00:14:46.700 --> 00:14:53.940 Do you know that God, from his knowledge, from 00:14:53.940 --> 00:14:58.139 his wisdom, from his mind, that he can bring 00:14:58.139 --> 00:15:01.539 an instruction from Pastor Victor to me that 00:15:01.539 --> 00:15:04.179 no money on this earth can be able to provide 00:15:04.179 --> 00:15:11.779 it. That he can provide help. that no man on 00:15:11.779 --> 00:15:14.600 this earth can be able to what? Provide unto 00:15:14.600 --> 00:15:20.460 me. When we gather, we are not only provoking 00:15:20.460 --> 00:15:24.279 one another, but we are speaking life unto life 00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:27.480 to each other. We are bringing God's mind to 00:15:27.480 --> 00:15:30.379 each other. We are bringing instruction. We are 00:15:30.379 --> 00:15:33.259 bringing clarity. We are bringing light. We are 00:15:33.259 --> 00:15:37.149 bringing strength to one another. So much so 00:15:37.149 --> 00:15:39.409 that when we leave this place, we are not only 00:15:39.409 --> 00:15:43.269 leaping and jumping and full of joy, but we are 00:15:43.269 --> 00:15:47.509 living to come back again. Why? We know that 00:15:47.509 --> 00:15:54.809 our brethren are always profiting us. That is 00:15:54.809 --> 00:16:00.850 what the manifestation does. That every day, 00:16:01.440 --> 00:16:04.940 I need my brothers. I want to profit them. I 00:16:04.940 --> 00:16:07.340 want to walk in love towards them. That word 00:16:07.340 --> 00:16:10.220 profiting is that I am walking in love. What? 00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:14.679 Towards them. Hallelujah. Let's quickly finish 00:16:14.679 --> 00:16:19.070 the verse now. See what it says. For to one is 00:16:19.070 --> 00:16:20.850 given by the Spirit the word of wisdom, to another 00:16:20.850 --> 00:16:22.610 the word of knowledge by the same Spirit, to 00:16:22.610 --> 00:16:24.450 another faith by the same Spirit, to another 00:16:24.450 --> 00:16:26.889 the gifts of healing by the same Spirit, to another 00:16:26.889 --> 00:16:29.049 the working of miracles, to another prophecy, 00:16:29.269 --> 00:16:31.350 to another design of Spirit, to another diverse 00:16:31.350 --> 00:16:33.909 kinds of what? Tongues, to another interpretation 00:16:33.909 --> 00:16:38.090 of what? Tongues. But all these worketh that 00:16:38.090 --> 00:16:41.649 one and the self same Spirit, dividing to what? 00:16:42.289 --> 00:16:49.299 Every man severally as what? As he wills. So 00:16:49.299 --> 00:16:53.080 when believers gather and God is speaking, God 00:16:53.080 --> 00:16:57.100 is bringing his mind, God is bringing instructions, 00:16:57.460 --> 00:17:01.980 right? It's because there is something that should 00:17:01.980 --> 00:17:08.039 happen in that atmosphere. From the Old Testament 00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:13.980 to the New Testament, you will see laid down 00:17:13.980 --> 00:17:18.779 experiences. Of God speaking with men. Hallelujah. 00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:23.519 Bringing his counsel. Bringing instructions everywhere. 00:17:24.059 --> 00:17:28.759 Literally across the scriptures. Write Exodus 00:17:28.759 --> 00:17:33.140 chapter 19. Verse 17. You could help us very 00:17:33.140 --> 00:17:35.299 fast. Let's just read. And I will give us extra 00:17:35.299 --> 00:17:42.319 references. Exodus chapter 19. Verse 17. And 00:17:42.319 --> 00:17:45.059 Moses brought forth the people out of the camp 00:17:45.059 --> 00:17:49.480 to meet with who? To meet with who? And NECF 00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:53.519 gathered together, right? To meet with God, with 00:17:53.519 --> 00:17:57.839 one another. See now. And they stood, what? At 00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:00.579 the nether part of what? Of the mount. Next verse. 00:18:01.519 --> 00:18:04.519 And Mount Sinai was all together in smoke because 00:18:04.519 --> 00:18:07.859 the Lord did what? descended upon it in fire, 00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:11.180 and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of 00:18:11.180 --> 00:18:14.740 a furnace, and the whole mount quaked what? Greatly. 00:18:14.900 --> 00:18:18.500 He gathered the people to meet with who? Because 00:18:18.500 --> 00:18:23.200 God was about saying something. Hallelujah.

When the 00:18:38.220 --> 00:18:42.079 Lord said what? Unto me, gather me the people 00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:46.460 what? Together, and I will make them do what? 00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:51.339 And I will make them do what? Fear my words, 00:18:51.619 --> 00:18:55.700 that they may learn to fear me all the days that 00:18:55.700 --> 00:18:58.519 they shall live upon the earth. And that they 00:18:58.519 --> 00:19:03.950 may teach their who? They are children. Deuteronomy 00:19:03.950 --> 00:19:09.609 chapter 6, verse 6 to 7. Write that down.

And then much more ahead. Hallelujah. So 00:21:52.559 --> 00:21:58.880 what we see here. The demonstration of the things 00:21:58.880 --> 00:22:02.819 of the Spirit in believers' meetings. Please, 00:22:02.859 --> 00:22:06.059 let's listen from this place now. The demonstration 00:22:06.059 --> 00:22:09.980 of the things of the Spirit in believers' meetings 00:22:09.980 --> 00:22:14.900 take precedence from speakings. Do you hear what 00:22:14.900 --> 00:22:18.460 I said? The manifestation of the things of the 00:22:18.460 --> 00:22:23.900 Spirit take place via what? Via speaking in believers' 00:22:24.140 --> 00:22:30.789 meetings. They take precedence by speaking. The 00:22:30.789 --> 00:22:33.190 manifestation of the things of the Spirit, they 00:22:33.190 --> 00:22:36.509 happen in believers meeting by what? By speaking. 00:22:39.470 --> 00:22:42.609 And when we say speaking, we mean we are taking 00:22:42.609 --> 00:22:45.410 advantage of our what? Our tongue. Hallelujah. 00:22:47.829 --> 00:22:50.890 One of the things I got this afternoon as a product 00:22:50.890 --> 00:22:54.660 of meditating on this message. Is that when things 00:22:54.660 --> 00:22:58.220 go bad in your life, before you complain about 00:22:58.220 --> 00:23:01.940 the bad things, say God's word over the things 00:23:01.940 --> 00:23:05.579 first. Do you hear what I just said? That's a 00:23:05.579 --> 00:23:09.660 word for somebody now. When things go bad around 00:23:09.660 --> 00:23:12.859 you or in your life or in the life of people 00:23:12.859 --> 00:23:16.099 around you, before you begin to complain about 00:23:16.099 --> 00:23:21.200 them, say what God's word says about the things 00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:25.519 first. Hallelujah. What I'm saying in essence 00:23:25.519 --> 00:23:31.299 is learn to use your tongue to speak life over 00:23:31.299 --> 00:23:37.099 things. Because the things that you will see, 00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:40.660 the manifestation of the power of the Holy Ghost 00:23:40.660 --> 00:23:45.119 cannot be seen in your life and in the things 00:23:45.119 --> 00:23:49.039 around you if you don't learn to use your tongue 00:23:49.039 --> 00:23:52.920 by faith speaking words. By speaking faith -filled 00:23:52.920 --> 00:23:59.759 words over them. My head, oh, this cancer. Cyprus 00:23:59.759 --> 00:24:02.700 will kill me. My father will die. My mother will 00:24:02.700 --> 00:24:06.000 die. My brother, see, my head is blocked. Your 00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:12.160 head will continue to be blocked. Nigeria is 00:24:12.160 --> 00:24:21.269 hard. No, Nigeria is not hard for me. Timibu 00:24:21.269 --> 00:24:27.250 will kill us. He will kill you. Everybody will 00:24:27.250 --> 00:24:31.329 be living. You will be dead. I'm telling you 00:24:31.329 --> 00:24:35.349 this. You see, let me tell you something. The 00:24:35.349 --> 00:24:38.089 believer is a man that does not use his words 00:24:38.089 --> 00:24:42.109 mindlessly. One of our pastors who said this, 00:24:42.269 --> 00:24:44.930 imagine you come to this sister and you said 00:24:44.930 --> 00:24:47.829 your big head and the head starts growing big. 00:24:48.309 --> 00:24:52.390 What will you say next? Somebody says, you say 00:24:52.390 --> 00:24:55.569 Jesus. What would you say? You use the word to 00:24:55.569 --> 00:25:00.750 say it. What would you say? What would you say? 00:25:02.269 --> 00:25:08.309 Heads grow small again. Understand that when 00:25:08.309 --> 00:25:12.670 it comes to the things of the Spirit, what we 00:25:12.670 --> 00:25:16.630 see take precedence from what? From speaking. 00:25:16.809 --> 00:25:26.819 Hallelujah. 1 Corinthians 12 verse 3. Yeah. 1 00:25:26.819 --> 00:25:32.819 Corinthians 12 verse 3. Let's read it slowly. 00:25:33.460 --> 00:25:40.000 Amen. Everybody. Wherefore, I give to you to 00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:46.079 what? Let's read it slowly. That no man keep 00:25:46.079 --> 00:25:50.130 him quiet by the Spirit of God. Thinking by the 00:25:50.130 --> 00:25:53.690 Spirit of God. Looking by the Spirit of God. 00:25:54.509 --> 00:25:59.369 Sleeping by the Spirit of God. No man what? So 00:25:59.369 --> 00:26:02.529 the Spirit of God has been given to the believer 00:26:02.529 --> 00:26:12.210 to do what? To speak. Hallelujah. I have the 00:26:12.210 --> 00:26:17.589 Spirit of God to what? To speak. God has given 00:26:17.589 --> 00:26:25.349 me his spirit to what? To speak. To speak what? 00:26:25.450 --> 00:26:28.089 That's the question. He has given me his spirit 00:26:28.089 --> 00:26:34.630 to speak what? To speak life. To speak his mind. 00:26:35.170 --> 00:26:40.609 To speak his will. To speak his purposes. Are 00:26:40.609 --> 00:26:44.390 you writing what I just said now? God has given 00:26:44.390 --> 00:26:47.549 me his spirit to speak what? To speak his mind, 00:26:47.950 --> 00:27:01.690 to speak his will, to speak his purposes. So 00:27:01.690 --> 00:27:05.150 if God gave me his spirit to speak his mind, 00:27:05.170 --> 00:27:09.309 his will, his purposes, then when I'm in a Holy 00:27:09.309 --> 00:27:14.400 Ghost meeting, I ought to be what? Speaking. 00:27:14.859 --> 00:27:21.140 I ought to be what? Speaking. Today is a meeting 00:27:21.140 --> 00:27:28.099 for speaking believers. 2 Peter 1, verse 20. 00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:31.180 We know this now in this church, this verse. 00:27:32.119 --> 00:27:36.900 2 Peter 1, verse 20, 21. Knowing this verse, 00:27:37.140 --> 00:27:40.299 that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private 00:27:40.299 --> 00:27:44.940 what? Interpretation. For the prophecy came not 00:27:44.940 --> 00:27:47.660 in all time by the will of man, but the holy 00:27:47.660 --> 00:27:50.819 men of God speak as they were moved by what? 00:27:51.420 --> 00:27:56.539 By the Holy Ghost. We say in speaking meetings, 00:27:56.759 --> 00:27:59.480 in Holy Ghost meetings, we are speaking believers. 00:27:59.759 --> 00:28:01.859 The Spirit of God is giving room to demonstrate 00:28:01.859 --> 00:28:04.380 in what? Autorities. What are the autorities? 00:28:04.940 --> 00:28:08.859 Tongues. Yes. Interpretation of tongues. What 00:28:08.859 --> 00:28:13.369 again? Prophecy. So we see that in Old Testament, 00:28:13.630 --> 00:28:17.710 Luke chapter 24, where we often read, right? 00:28:17.750 --> 00:28:25.190 Luke chapter 24, verse 25 to 27. Beginning at 00:28:25.190 --> 00:28:30.849 Moses and all the prophets, they spoke because 00:28:30.849 --> 00:28:34.109 the Spirit of God did what unto them? Moved them. 00:28:34.170 --> 00:28:38.380 Hallelujah. They prophesy that Christ will come, 00:28:38.559 --> 00:28:42.720 Christ will be crucified, Christ will die, He 00:28:42.720 --> 00:28:45.400 will suffer, right? He will be raised from the 00:28:45.400 --> 00:28:48.740 dead and He will enter into His glory. How did 00:28:48.740 --> 00:28:51.680 they know it? They were moved by what? The Spirit 00:28:51.680 --> 00:28:56.440 of God. I just said something now. So which means, 00:28:56.660 --> 00:29:00.700 in a Holy Ghost meeting, the Spirit of God now 00:29:00.700 --> 00:29:04.599 does not come upon us to move us. Do you know 00:29:04.599 --> 00:29:08.460 what I just said? The Spirit of God speaks with 00:29:08.460 --> 00:29:13.579 us right from within us. So we don't need a movement 00:29:13.579 --> 00:29:17.119 again. Hallelujah. You know, as you are sitting 00:29:17.119 --> 00:29:21.359 like this, the Spirit of God can give you words 00:29:21.359 --> 00:29:24.819 now for this sister. Hallelujah. Words that you 00:29:24.819 --> 00:29:27.400 have never said before by the Spirit of God. 00:29:27.819 --> 00:29:30.539 Things that you have never seen before. By what? 00:29:30.700 --> 00:29:34.769 By the Spirit of God. And we will see it in the 00:29:34.769 --> 00:29:39.910 next few minutes. Hallelujah. Amen. 1 Peter. 00:29:40.150 --> 00:29:43.329 Write this as an extra verse. 1 Peter 1 verse 00:29:43.329 --> 00:29:58.039 10 to 11. 1 Peter chapter 1 verse 10 to 11. So 00:29:58.039 --> 00:30:00.059 when you see the walk of the Spirit of God throughout 00:30:00.059 --> 00:30:02.579 the Old Testament, you will see him speaking 00:30:02.579 --> 00:30:04.920 through prophets, through kings. Hallelujah. 00:30:05.519 --> 00:30:09.759 And it didn't just stop there. We see that expressly 00:30:09.759 --> 00:30:12.859 with the apostles. Amen. In the epistles, we 00:30:12.859 --> 00:30:17.779 see his walkings littered everywhere. I wrote 00:30:17.779 --> 00:30:20.279 a couple of scriptures here so that we can be 00:30:20.279 --> 00:30:22.759 able to take them as references. Acts chapter 00:30:22.759 --> 00:30:29.299 2 verse 4. Acts chapter 2 verse 4. Our brother 00:30:29.299 --> 00:30:32.380 spoke to us about it. You know. That the room 00:30:32.380 --> 00:30:36.380 was filled with the spirit of God. Can you give 00:30:36.380 --> 00:30:42.059 us Acts chapter 2? And they were all what? Let's 00:30:42.059 --> 00:30:46.599 read it together. And they were. And they began 00:30:46.599 --> 00:30:53.200 to sleep. And they began to think. And they began 00:30:53.200 --> 00:30:57.640 to wonder. What did they begin to do? And they 00:30:57.640 --> 00:31:03.119 began to, as the Holy Ghost gave them, utterance. 00:31:03.539 --> 00:31:08.920 Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. 00:31:09.519 --> 00:31:13.240 Can you say this? I'm in a meeting. I'm in a 00:31:13.240 --> 00:31:15.980 meeting of believers. The Holy Ghost is giving 00:31:15.980 --> 00:31:20.259 me utterance. And I'm speaking right now. He's 00:31:20.259 --> 00:31:23.319 giving me utterance. And I'm speaking right now. 00:31:23.849 --> 00:31:27.009 He's giving instructions and I'm speaking right 00:31:27.009 --> 00:31:30.650 now. He's bringing direction and I'm speaking 00:31:30.650 --> 00:31:34.509 right now. He's bringing healing and I'm speaking 00:31:34.509 --> 00:31:37.750 right now. He said these signs shall follow them 00:31:37.750 --> 00:31:42.529 in my name. They shall speak in what? In new 00:31:42.529 --> 00:31:45.890 tongues. Tongues have never been experienced 00:31:45.890 --> 00:31:48.990 on the earth prior to the coming of the Holy 00:31:48.990 --> 00:31:53.519 Ghost. There was no man on the earth that ever 00:31:53.519 --> 00:31:59.880 spoke in tongues until the Holy Ghost came. After 00:31:59.880 --> 00:32:03.180 the resurrection, new things came with the resurrection. 00:32:03.460 --> 00:32:06.640 One of the new things that came with the resurrection 00:32:06.640 --> 00:32:10.819 is what? Speaking in tongues and interpreting 00:32:10.819 --> 00:32:14.240 those tongues. Hallelujah. This sign shall follow 00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:17.440 them. He said, my name. They shall cast out what? 00:32:17.900 --> 00:32:20.779 Devils. They will lay hands on the sick and the 00:32:20.779 --> 00:32:25.640 sick will do what? Those experiences are believer 00:32:25.640 --> 00:32:32.680 supernatural experiences. Lastly, and we begin 00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:38.559 to minister one to another. Have you written 00:32:38.559 --> 00:32:41.500 Acts chapter 2 verse 4? Acts chapter 4 verse 00:32:41.500 --> 00:32:47.920 8. Acts chapter 4 verse 8. 4 verse 31.

Acts 00:33:23.160 --> 00:33:29.119 chapter 20 verse 22 to 23. And then add 21 verse 00:33:29.119 --> 00:33:37.940 11. Glory to God. Glory to God.

As they ministered 00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:58.380 to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Ghost kept silent. 00:33:59.420 --> 00:34:02.980 What did the Holy Ghost do? The Holy Ghost what? 00:34:04.359 --> 00:34:09.860 How did you think the Holy Ghost said? How did 00:34:09.860 --> 00:34:18.780 you think the Holy Ghost said? So that believer, 00:34:18.820 --> 00:34:20.579 do you think that believer will be among them 00:34:20.579 --> 00:34:23.619 or the believer will be a stranger from outside? 00:34:25.219 --> 00:34:29.840 He will be among and what did the Holy Ghost 00:34:29.840 --> 00:34:34.539 say?

How did Paul and Barnabas Were 00:34:42.369 --> 00:34:46.690 identified to be sent for work of ministry. Through 00:34:46.690 --> 00:34:52.989 believers what? Meeting. And so for the work 00:34:52.989 --> 00:34:56.090 where unto I have worked. I have called them. 00:34:56.670 --> 00:34:58.690 Let me say it this way so that we can smile. 00:34:59.230 --> 00:35:04.230 The Holy Ghost had to smidge on them. Amen. Yes 00:35:04.230 --> 00:35:06.010 prior to now they never knew that there was a 00:35:06.010 --> 00:35:09.650 work. And let me say it so that we can laugh 00:35:09.650 --> 00:35:12.639 again. The Holy Spirit is about snitching on 00:35:12.639 --> 00:35:15.260 somebody here. You know, there was a meeting 00:35:15.260 --> 00:35:19.820 we had, sir. You remember? One of the pastors 00:35:19.820 --> 00:35:24.380 gave a word to someone. And the lady went and 00:35:24.380 --> 00:35:29.300 said that somebody gossiped to the pastors. Can 00:35:29.300 --> 00:35:35.159 you imagine? And he said that by the Spirit of 00:35:35.159 --> 00:35:41.380 God. She said, these pastors, In Catholicism, 00:35:41.380 --> 00:35:44.300 one of the Catholicism. You know those groups 00:35:44.300 --> 00:35:46.659 that we say pastors should minister. He gave 00:35:46.659 --> 00:35:49.980 her a word and she said they went and snitched 00:35:49.980 --> 00:35:54.420 her to the pastors.
