Welcome to track number one of Mission Europe. Hallelujah, Hallelujah. Wow, is this bullying working? OK, Father, thank you for your blessing of your word today. We are. Glad to be here. To. Receive from you we thank you in Jesus name. Wow, it's a blessing to be here and to see all of you. Where are you from? Where are all of you from all over the place. Wow. Fantastic. It's a blessing to see all of you again. Amen. Amen, I believe. Jacqui. That God is blessing us. Could you know Benny? And we are going to have pleasant time here. Is there any way you can be nearer? You look a bit far. No. No, I don't know. Are the chairs spread out? I think so because I need you nearer. Avoir the mission. Amen. Now, those who have been in, what do you call it? In Geneva, in Zurich, in all these places you are coming from, that is your mission. You've been on a mission there, building a church there, isn't it? Yeah. As we have been in. Switzerland we have been on a mission and in, in, in, what do you call it? In Europe we have been on a mission, a limited mission, and we are celebrating 22 years of this mission. The unceleable Van Durzon de St. Mission 22 years. Van Durzon. Hallelujah, we are celebrating 22 years of this mission. The unceleable Van Durzon de St. Mission. So. So what do you call it? It is good that we have what we have achieved. They don't say bond about but. There is much, much more for us to achieve. And. That is why we are having this short. Camp. Because God wants us to have missions. But could you make a mission? To reach Europe. Amen. God wants us to reach Europe. You can attend Europe. And I do not think that we have reached Europe. You should pounce back on Airtime Europe. Now you think we have reached Europe, I. Didn't. Ask for anybody from Denmark, from Finland, from Paris. There's somebody supposed to have gone to Paris. Who is that? When? Are you going? To come back to you. Next week Saturday, ask for anybody from. France, Spain. Or Portugal. Portugal Where are Portuguese? Are the Portuguese people. Who song in Portuguese? Are you from Portugal? What do you mean by you are from Portugal? You have Portuguese blood. The British song. Portuguese on the song. Your mother is from Portugal. I mean lighthouse in Portugal Lighthouse. In. Portugal No, I'm not asking for blood groups. This is not a hospital. We are looking for chess groups. On chefs, the group, that is. Not blood groups. A pastor all this song. Amen. So it is important for us to understand the the vision and the mission. Amen. And the mission is clear. The component. Vision is mission Europe. Let me show Eclair Celerop. Eastern Europe. The of the West. Western Europe. The of the West. Central Europe is Europe. Celerop. Amen, Amen. And it is possible for us to reach out to these places. It's a proceed. That time was a plus. Hallelujah. So in this short come meeting, I want us to really look at beginning churches. So we can regard that. In all these places. Basically. Now, one of the things that is very discouraging for people. In the Shotsky de Kurashbuku person. Is that we feel that we are not doing much of the work of God. When you have a congregation of maybe 20 or 30 or 40 people, you feel that you are not doing much. And. Because of that, many people who couldn't feel that maybe when you are in Africa. South will put that on Africa. Or in South America. On America. And you have 1000 people. If you are a male person. You are on a mission. Love it. But if you are in Europe and you have 23 people in your church, you are not on a mission. Who told you that? Who told you that you are not on a? Mission. Amen. I just came from Denmark. Denmark I visited. Is anybody here from? Denmark. Not a black group, I'm talking about a church. And I. Visited a wonderful church there. This church has been there for 20 years. I was at their. 20th anniversary. And I really appreciated the work that the pastor has done. Was started a big church like, you know, hundreds and hundreds of people. Something. The person. But in a country with less than 0.1 Christians, Christians. We are. It is a great mission. Between grand. Mission and the Church is just like any of our churches. I believe God took me. There. To see the celebration of 20 years of hard work. Pouvoir Levanton the celebration at Lillabel. Which will give you about about 100 people. If you don't appropriate something, the person. After 20 years of suffering. A prevent on the souffrance, Yeah. In the country. And all kinds of things going on in. The city. The antagonistic Antichrist European. Spirit I. Saw that God had spoken to me. In my heart. This is a great. When I knew that. When I knew that pastor, he was a younger man. The last time I saw him was about 20 years ago. And. I saw that he has grown older, suffering to win one or two souls. You see, my friends, in Europe. When is that me on the? You are now in Pagan territory. Who said on the territory of the Pagan? Christianity is now almost an African or an immigrant activity. Like this activity. From England to Germany to Norway to France, Christianity is almost 100% an immigrant or black or colored or non white foreign activity. Compared to the longue Terre la France la suedna novenge de la PIPA de pyeongerosa prescar sompurso in the Greece rumply the person immigrants the noir prescar a sonpurso the person T villain de la. Fritz Yeah, I visited a church in Paris. He visited Nagisa, Paris. The pastor is a white man. The pastor is Blanc. His assistant is a white man, so that's his. Story Blanc. And the dead assistant is a white man. My sister is Blanc. And the rest of the 8000 members are black people. Yeah, you should come with me when he said he's inviting me to come there. Again in Paris should. Come along and see. Venevoir. This is what is left of Christianity. Just like he rests to the Christianism. In Europe. On Europe. Today. And. The same thing is happening in America slowly, because of certain reasons, of course, which I cannot bother to go into now. God. Has shown me in my heart what you are doing. Here is a mission. It is a mission. If I have given you the impression that you are not missionaries, I am apologizing to you today. You are missionaries. That's a missionary, and this is a mission. It's. Equally as is equally. A ferocious fight to. Have a church in Switzerland. But in the case of Swiss. It's equally a ferocious, quite ferrous. Ferocious battle. But I, Pharaoh, stay. To just be here. To stay here to. Preach. And to have 10 people sitting there about quietly, 10 people sitting down quietly, about the person for yourself, for yourself, rap for yourself, rap for yourself, rap for yourself, rap for yourself. It's a mission. And you? Are missionaries. That's a missionary. And there is no way to be here many times unless you have a job. Yeah, because. That's true. Every 1m of the road has been calculated. Pascal Shak Metro de la root a calculate. Every bulb that is on they have counted. It is on to. Calculate. Everybody who is walking on the. Street they. Know that you are here. You have to have an official reason to be. Here. With your face otherwise. You know. You cannot be here, so you are missionaries. The missionary who through. Your wisdom have been. Able to stay here. Some of you came here originally to find money, but after some time you realise that you are finding. Existence proven certain existence. Here is my room. Latitude my shop. Here is my toilet. That's a toilet. Here is my sitting room. That's the tooth, my salon. Here is my kitchen. That's the tooth, my cuisine. Here is my money. That's the tooth. Here is where I use it. That allows you to. Leave and I'm just here. The money that you thought you would find, you have not found. It. So now. A. New mission has been born in your heart, and there's nothing wrong with that We. Are here in the mile, Alexula. We all make mistakes. Of a Tuesday's error. In our vision for our life and God is able to do what we call midstream. Corrections. It's just a part of the Fed and transformed. Have experienced spiritual midstream correction of your life. Vision because. You cannot be rich. You can only exist and survive. Or not. Yeah, when you try and try and try, it's not you cannot have much lottery. Lottery. Or some fantastic surprise surprise, you will have something to eat. Something to. Drink some clothes to buy. These are the can. Buy a camera, a phone, a telephone. Take picture. From the photo. Send it to where you came from. Everybody. Would think you have prospects no problem. But problem. But I came to tell you, many of you, if you will be. Honest, they accepted a. New Life's vision. In a nouvelle Monsieur. Is it true or it's not true and God has also given me a new vision? A nouvelle vision. At first I didn't have. Much such a big vision. You have a visual. See Grounds. You see, I've never had a big vision so. These are made the Vision 3 grounds. In the ministry. On the ministry, yeah. In fact, I've I've even been afraid of having a big vision. I also have heard about ground vision. Because I, I, I know that your vision can destroy you. My vision prevail my vision if your. Vision is too big. See, but your vision is too. Grounds it can force. You people for say to. Do things that you shouldn't do. Sometimes I don't. I don't want to have a vision. I've never you not see me teaching on visions. So precious you the vision. Is not one of my teachings, but whatever the Lord would tell. Me. Then I try to do that that will have the vision she. Said. So after now, I haven't had a vision the whole of Europe or the whole world. I see the whole world. I say it's too big. And. I say Europe, I feel look, we have come to Spain, we have come to Switzerland and a few in also in Italy. It's enough. Some Dion Italy on Swiss on Italy it. Is because my vision, not God, hasn't told me that. But now there must be missions. Mission has suddenly expanded to include the whole of Europe. I just came from America, Shouven. Is it as uni? I told them. The. Theme of my camp in America was Mission America. The tandem of constant. They have twin churches in 24 states out of. 50 states he saw the second punch. And this year is the 20th anniversary, 1994 to 2000. And 14. Somebody may be celebrating 20 years in the ministry and his church will be just here. We may be celebrating 20 years in America and we have more people than. Even the people that are here. But God has shown me that the vision is according to the responsibility that He's giving. To you. So I told them shame on. Them. After 20 years, you couldn't have a church in every state in America. North America, our churches should. Have been spilling over on the borders of North America into Mexico and other going down I. Told them when they. Do their homework. I will come there. If they don't, I wouldn't come. They told me that I will be back before a year is up now. Europe How many states do we have here? Somebody. Should check it on. The Internet. You have Internet there and let us count. You are laughing at Americans continent. How many countries? Come beyond the pain. Where is Portugal? Where is Spain? Where the Portugal is Spain. Where is Belgium? Where is Russia? Sutrovla, Rusi. Where is Poland? Sutrovla, Polonia. Albania, Albania, Greece, Czechoslovakia. There must be missions. Amen. So I've come here. To push you out of your cities. And to encourage. You to believe. Acquire. That we Lighthouse Chapel International. New Lighthouse. Has a responsibility. Online responsibility. For Europe. Europe. And the blood of the people. That are here ask. Of us in. Heaven. Lighthouse, Lighthouse. In terms of other churches, if you are looking at other churches, one of the most successful churches. Why are you clapping? It's not Hey, don't clap. Participa. It is if you. Look at somebody then. You will say that you are one of the most. Successful, but if you look to God. And the work that he has given us to do. Enough to the Monet de Fair. You will never. Clap over Jean Abruziv. Who will be afraid and you pray for more time over. People over push the tongue. You. See. When you are not doing. Well, Governor Reusse Par. And others are also not doing. Well, if you don't reusse SPA. You can easily praise yourself when you should not praise yourself. I thought the example is Ghana. An example Samson, Ghana. As a. Nation coming nation. We are better than every single W African country. Only mayor to Tupee de la Fic de la West. In terms of prosperity. Stability. Economy, Economy, security. Security. Possibility, possibility, Feasibility, Visibility. Feasibility Accommodation Hotel The The. Housing. The meson. Roads, routes, Electricity, electricity. Water. There is no country in Western, including Nigeria. Yeah, all campaign on Africa and West on a clear which. Comes even close to Ghana the. Permission approached University Ghana. Not because of what any statistics is saying. But just for second statistics. But because I have been to all of them. First, the monster of Tu SE Peila. By Rd. Par la hooch, yes. And I can tell. You. Ghana is, you see, Ghana is like America. In West Africa. Today I was flying this way. I was on Swiss Air. They. Told me that Switzer is trying to come back to Ghana to fly back to. Ghana. They stopped, but they've seen that you cannot work without Ghana. Yeah, so you'll soon be able to come direct. Direct. You. Don't. Have to go to Amsterdam or? Wasting your time just. Direct. Are. You listening to me now if you are from. Ghana. And you are saying that you are the best when most of the city does not have? Water. 95% of the roads have not been. Done. No, no the. Educational system is one of the most useless educational systems since we had independence in 1957, the. System. Educational system. Never. Has it been more useless? When? There is corruption at the highest. Level possible when Ghanians. Have little confidence in almost all levels of government, including the Supreme. Court. Yes, we are the best. It is only when you look at somebody. That you will. Praise yourself, but when you look at the. Real vision that A. Country is supposed to. Have you will never praise Ghana. But if you look at Guinea Bissau. Guinea Bissau when I. Arrived from Guinea Bissau to Ghana. The Guinea Bissau is used to Ghana, I think. It was Guinea Bissau. When? We put in Accra. Airport this. Is America. This is America. When I flew from. Liberia and I arrived in Ghana. Wow, this is America. I saw lights. There is no electricity at. All in your pad. Electricity. They use touches. They use touch. From north to southeast to where there is no law or. Street as to West pad. Electricity in Liberia Liberia, there is no electricity at all. In your pad electricity. At all we both touches and get to us because they don't have even kerosene to put in the Lantern. They don't on that, just the torch. I still see the kerosene person touches. As gifts because they also know if we get a torch they can use the torch. So when you drive in the night, you see little torches in the dark. They don't. Come when you come to Ghana, lighter on. Hey. Light we have, dams we have. Electric hydroelectric we have. 3 hydroelectric dams and. Thermal plants and other sources of electricity. They don't. Electricity. Gas. It is an America. Type of America. If you go to Nigeria. There is no. Light. There. One day a brother. Came from Nigeria, we. Asked what would. You drink. He said I would. Drink Coca-Cola. So when we get in the coca. Cola. Coca-Cola. And he drank it. What is wrong? It is cold Coca-Cola. Nigeria or Nigeria? Because the fridge cannot stay. On and. To get cold. It is. Everybody has your own generator. So what I'm trying to say is that you are praising yourself for nothing. You are nothing. We have done nothing for God in Europe on the. Real faith on the hope for you. Amen. There must be missions, and who are those going to be missionaries? The chief of the missionary. Who are those going to go on the mission? You and I Especially you. I've already been on my mission. I'm on my. Mission I'm on my mission I've. Been a missionary to Ghana these years, Tutsi. A missionary to Ghana? Yeah. I've been there building churches. Building the church. Reaching. Out all these years. Tutsi. What about you the? Customer in the room. There must be missions. Who are avoiding the? Show you must do something. After. 20 years, you have 33 people. That returned the person. Quietly listening to you, I personally will congratulate you. 20 years, if you have 33 people sitting there, you have done in Europe 100. Percent in Europe. In. Europe. You have done well, maybe. Protect. God is about to change something in Europe and people will start coming to I don't. Know. When it will not be difficult at all when it happens with Supernatural. Because. God will definitely show mercy to the people in. Europe. Yes, he will definitely show mercy. As to. How he will show mercy and as to when it will happen, I cannot tell. So until then. The. Biggest churches will be. Immigrant churches, the. Black churches. The brown churches with some few white people amongst them. Take your hair. Blow. That's the reality. That's what it's going to be. But when God starts to show. Messy because there will. Be a mysterious convention, young white people. They will tend themselves through your prayers. You've been praying for 20 years for them. You're interested Mysterious the. Blow for the. Priya Razu for Novato. And a church like this one will be a small church in the land, just as in Ghana, a Japanese man who comes to have a church, his chest will be. Small so the Greece come on his sister's child put the Greece organna, for example, crowns and bramore and Japanese TiVo revenue organna first in Greece. How can a Japanese man have a big church in? Ghana with. Only Japanese and one or two. How many Japanese are there? In Ghana? It will be as small. God is showing mercy to the people in Ghana, so they are Ghanaian pastors. With big churches when? God shows mercy to the people in Switzerland. No African can have a church bigger than a Switzerland. A Swiss man will have a large congregation and a Ghanaian or Nigerian will have a small church, the ones we are having now. But until then, our. Small churches are the largest churches in all these cities. Most the glees Petit. The church I visited in Denmark that is the largest church in. Copenhagen. After 20 years is the largest, the largest work that is going on there you see. Just a congregation like that. The. Congregation says. Children are the one. Person. One person. Children are singers. It is our force or the shot. They are working just as our children are also, you know, now in the church. God is our force. See my uncle, boss ourselves. That's how the work of God is. It's a come section to travel the Jew. But I don't want us to praise ourselves. But the back of peace. But rather to focus on the work that we have. To do there is. Nothing more important than to focus on the work God has. Given to. Us since I've been focusing on the. Work of God. I have seen the importance of focusing on one thing. I am not trying to earn money. If that was the case, I will spend more time going around to places which have a strong currency. And I'll develop messages. Which make people give their money away. You know, you will see that my messages are powerful, but that is not my aim. Which? Rather, I have come here. Not. To response from you encourage. You. To work for God. And. To become missionaries, especially missionaries. In Europe. By the time this camp is over, some of you have been transferred already to other European. Countries. And some of you, your churches are going to be bigger than the church you are in today. Ask for. A church you can. Never tell how how it is going to be. Or. Who is going to be the pastor of A? Picture so I. Came here to transfer you. Hallelujah. I came here to do. What? I need you to be moving. To every country in Europe, once you are called Europe, West, SN, underground, above ground, central. I don't know how, but once it is Europe, there must be. Mission W North-south. Hey man, now. Let's know. This is the IT is more difficult to send people on missions than to have a. Crusade. It's a predecessor of where they show on missions. It is more difficult. To put difficile to send. People. On a mission to have. A Crusade Crusade. Is not easy, but it is far easier. Than to send somebody like you on a mission. Or mission. Based on your attitude of. Because for. Some of you my preaching is like a song. My predicate is just a common show. My message is like I'm. Playing instruments which you are enjoying appreciate. But you will not do it. Ezekiel chapter 33. Is this thing working? It's Ezekiel chapter 33 and verse 32. That's it. Or if you like, from verse 31, verse 31. And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee as my people. You see, you've come. You come. Isn't it? And they hear thy words, but they will not do them. For with their mouths they show much love, but their heart goes after their covetousness. Which means money and job stability, safety, accommodation, visa, green card, permanent pay, European passport. My God. My God, he's a good. Temporary Menemet palm practice. He's a month to. Plan enthusiast model or propo Malonet. Jean Job? Sure. Message of stability of Visa, passport, Green card, Air City suite to suggest with this table. Hello met now at and to them you see, he God is speaking to the prophet like God was speaking to me before I came here. He's like you, Bishop, that he would know thou at and to them as a very lovely song. The Prophet. The prophet is equal. Of of one that has a pleasant voice. Can play well on an. For the years I went. Is a good step. But they do them not, they hear thy word. It's a good. Step at all. But they do them not. You see, God was telling the prophet what the people are like. The Jud is your prophet, secretary, song thou art. Unto them as a very lovely song. You will come and shorter of to Cesmos. OK, stand up. Saba. What is wrong with you? You're not feeling well. Mr. Padia, which country are you from? I mean which country in Europe? On the hop. Swiss Is this your first camp? Then somebody should stop him right now. He has got a shield of faith. OK. And Lo lo, Thou Art unto them has a very lovely song of one that has a pleasant voice. Bishop, we like to hear you talking. I said funny things. For us to laugh. Yet to laugh for a long. Time. It's like a lovely. Song for they. Hear thy words. But they could stop at all. But they do them. Not. So. You don't. I came to tell you. When you put in. This camp meeting. Don't you come? That it is very, very. Important. That you do not just listen. But that. You open your heart. Are. You listening to me? Not. Just to hear a lovely song. Always when we have sent people a chafa. Conor Vai de Jong go, Vasi go. Alesi, it was difficult. It was difficult, but. Later when they went. Country parts. They are glad. My pastor friend whom I went to in Denmark. Mon ami, pastor of Denmark. He was telling me. Even to. Get people not. To get them to. Go to Africa or into a jungle to be bitten by mosquitoes. To Sweden, they don't. Want. To go that's. Why you see that the churches cannot advance? Because like the steady one says, their heart is on their. Covetiousness, if they sense. That there will be any reduction in financial gain. They don't. Want to do it? Amen. But I'll tell you something didn't show. There is nobody who can work for God by working for money. Money, it's never something that is near God are working for money and. God, it's either you. Work for God or you work for money. So. When you see. Pastors and preachers, the predicator linking money. To the work you see, that is the end of the work. We break a seller found the love of the Jews. It's like a university. To come and university. Many universities start as Bible schools. But could university Commons come? They could be. As soon as you ask secular education like law, administration, whatever, you add it to the Bible knowledge. That's the end of the Bible because. The secular education has much more popularity. Pascual laco secular or push the popularity? And it will drown out. The Saba Cule. The religious and spiritual division. Saba cule, the visual spiritual. Religion in our Bible school that we built in Ghana, we have written in bronze in a kesat be the one kesat be those who turn this school into a secular institution together with their children forever their. There are more people ready to pay to go to a secular university. That is not what. We are using our money to do That is why I wrote that some people can have a board meeting one day due to financial. Difficulties. We have to add other costs. As you take. The administration. Computer. Formati. Straw. These are useful in all the grade schools. Oxford. I don't know about Cambridge. At Oxford Oxwords have Havant Havant and many of the famous school. They were all Bible. Schools, it took the second families. It's the university popular. That's tending to what you know. Now that's how. Ministry and money is. A minister. If you have something you are doing for money and something you are doing for ministry, you put them together. The ministry will soon finish and the thing that is being done for money will take over. Minister, the minister if. I'm writing a book for money. She's a clear Liverpool. Soon the ministry part of the book will get finished and the money financial part will be in. Control the minister. If I'm doing the church both to get money and at the same time to get to do the ministry, soon almost everything I do will be because of money. She's your fellow minister who have won $8. He fairly shows the Jew very care all along. The minister Vaisi. Vaisi. So people who look at the church as a source of money, financial. Income, you are making a mistake. You cannot link the 2. Amen. Are you still around, Father? We thank you for the opportunities. For this opportunity. That we have. The news of all. To follow you. But to shrive to. Serve you. To serve you. And to preach your holy word it. Appreciate our sons, Pahala. Please guide us to anoint us. While. You use us and let there be missions. What are missions? Lord, our people go out. The world to preach the gospel of Jesus we are sorry, but we have praised ourselves when we compared ourselves with. Others we should. Never have done that. Today. We are asking right here in Europe. You see on the. Rope that you touch our heart to choose for. Care. To reach out to attend to the whole of Europe, to Europe, to Spain, Spaniel, Portugal. Portugal. To Greece, To every country in Europe shack. Pay on the hub. Western Europe. Europe. The less. Eastern Europe of the West. Central Europe. Of the South of. Every part of Europe such particular of we ask in the name of Jesus to pee. On and all the Jesus. For the Holy Spirit. Put us at the. Spring to fall upon every person here but.
