Welcome to track #2 of Mission South Africa. So now if we just move on very quickly, because in this camp we have to move fast, if we move on quickly, we are going to see now Mission South Africa. And then you see, you must live and die as though everything depends on you. Some of us who have studied churches and the churches have not worked is because you don't live and die as though everything depends on you. You somehow feel that something is going to happen to you or happen upon you, but you must live and die as though everything depends on you. Amen in South Africa and nobody else. What do you think? Yeah. So I want us to go out of this camp feeling that mission. South Africa, right? Depends on us. When was the last time I came here for a camp? That was how many years ago? Is that three years ago? Yeah. Now many times, you know, Bishop Cliffy and others have suggested to me, you know, I should come back, come on. And I said no, these, these people, they are not, they are not taking me serious. They are not taking the message serious, seriously. So I don't see why I should come and spend my time there. And recently I was in America and I told them that if they don't go and start a church in every state, I'm not going to come there again to do their any camp meeting for them. They should be there because I get tired when I'm doing the communist. It's not like I'm just. I'm. I'm not like a parrot. You press the play, then you start talking, then it's a press stop. It's not like that. Are you with me? Yeah. So a mission South Africa. You know, we must have. It's a mission. What is the mission? The mission South Africa is, is none other than the mission of church planting and putting churches everywhere that they must be. Amen. And who is going to start those churches? And who is going to be in charge of those churches? No one else but you. There is no other important person here than you, and you must think of yourself as somebody who the mission depends on. It depends on you. That is where you work well, when you feel that it depends on you. So you must be here as a young man because there's only one person here can change the rule of South Africa. If if there was one person who was to even do what God has used me to do in my short ministry in South Africa only, it would affect South Africa. Yes, if one of you here was to be able to rise up and do what God has used me to do for 25 years as a pastor in studying churches in different places and doing so many things here in South Africa, it would really affect South Africa. Just in South Africa, no other country, because I, I, I don't want you to think about other countries. Just think about South Africa. And it's all about, it's all about, it's all about you. You know, somebody was asking where do you get these people from? This person who does this person who does this, the person who does this? And I said, look, the people that I have are the people, everybody who I see in front of me, that's the person that's the next person for what I need. Oh, yeah. There's nobody invented anywhere who knows a lot of things. We are just about to start our crusades in South Africa, Healing Jesus Crusade. I think you saw the Healing Jesus Crusade buses. So you know, what I'm saying is real. And those buses didn't come from West Africa. They are from here. Yeah. And where will I get people? I need South African people to work with the Crusades. Where am I going to get the people from? When I open my eyes, I look straight. I see the person. The person is not somewhere far in a place I've got to look. When I open my eyes, the person I see is that the person and that person will start, will start working with the person. That is why you see some of you here have been at crusades working. It's because you are supposed to work in the Crusades, because the person you have is the person who is going to do the work. Are you listening to me? So what I'm trying to say is that don't look far when you are thinking of who is going to do Mission South Africa. I have no delusions at all. It's the people that I'm seeing. Those are the Mission South Africa people. What if I can see you? You are the one. If I can see you, You are the one. Yeah, there's no doubt about that. You are the one who is going to be used by the Lord to do the mission. The mission of church planting, building churches, doing the will of the Father. Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Amen. Mission South Africa. And why are we doing Mission South Africa? Because we want to prepare the way of the Lord. And I've explained to you already, prepare the way of the Lord. It is like that is what is written in the Bible. So it sounds so fantastically spiritual about what it means is prepare for the Lord and prepare to prepare to see him, prepare to meet him, prepare to encounter him, prepare for your meeting with God. All right? And as you prepare for your meeting with the Lord, you'll be doing the mission. That's the way to do it. If you die now, what are you going to tell God when He sees you? Hallelujah. Are you listening to me now? Turn with me to Matthew. Turn with me to Matthew, chapter 28. Matthew 28 Wow. Verse 19 Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, Amen. Verse 20 teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you, and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world, Amen. Wow. What does the Bible say? The Bible is telling us the Great Commission, the commandment that was given to all of us, go ye into the world, preach the gospel to every single nation and teach them. Now the Great Commission includes teaching. Teaching doesn't take place in three days. And you to teach them, you must gather them into a place to teach them. So this Great Commission is actually the Commission to plant churches. This camp is about a serious topic. If you were thinking of some other topic, we can organise a bus for you tomorrow morning. You go, you just go back, tell, ask your neighbor. neighbor, are you looking for some other topic to help your marriage? There is no marriage school here to help your boyfriend, your girlfriend, your prosperity, whatever. There's nothing like that here. Please. Tomorrow morning there is a bus for all retainees. You just go back to wherever you came from, please. I don't want any difficulty at this camp meeting. Amen. And tonight is just an introduction because you are tired. We are all tired, but at least we can start. Amen. So the Great Commission, somebody called it the Great Commission. It's not to call the Great Commission in the Bible, but it's a great commandment and it is to preach and it is to preach the gospel to all countries. Let's forget about other countries even just let's think of South Africa, all provinces, all towns, all cities, all villages in South Africa because in those days there wasn't even country like South Africa. It's recently that we had its own. We had Zulu tutus and different small, small groups. Some of you were Shaka, the Zulu children and US from other tribes all over the place. There was nothing. So when Jesus was like going to all nations, you were just tribesmen, you understand? Yeah. So let us, let us even limit ourselves to the South African borders, the nations within South Africa. And South Africa has enough different countries and groups within it. Hey, going to all, not some. When we were coming, our bus parked by a field. We parked by a field to somebody had left something. So we parked by a field and I looked out on the field, vast field, vast, very, very, very huge as far as the eye could see. And they had planted corn. And I was saying to the people in the bus, look outside, why did they not plant seeds just in this, just about 100 feet around in one little corner, but they planted seeds in the whole field. What are we doing? We have the whole field before us and we are planting seeds in Kaoki or just in little Sunnyside or some small little section and the whole field is there and we are planting seeds. You wait until the judgment day. You will be very surprised how beastly it will be for you. You will regret for the rest of your life in eternity. Doctor, you say one day you did an exam. Was your A level? A level? What happened? A level chemistry. My final exam and. Was supposed explain what is meant by regrets. Regrets where you regret something and you want to rush back, so do it. Tell me what happened. Find out A level. And after this you go to university. So you either become a teacher, a doctor, a lawyer, a Carpenter, depend on what you do, how well you do in this particular exam. We call it A level. A level. Do you have A levels here? You used to have A levels here, I'm sure. British system some years ago. Some schools do it. OK. A level then O level. Yeah, OK. So I've studied very hard. I wanted to go to medical school and I've been passing my exams. So this final exam I was supposed to answer 5 questions. The first question is compulsory and then there are other questions and you choose four out of the rest. When I was answering the questions, I realized that I had finished very early and the rest were still writing the exam. So. I was very surprised that they were not really answering the questions very fast. So I I did my first question and answered. 3. Questions instead of four so #1 and 3 instead of #1 and four other questions. Because you had in your mind number one and three is 4. Yes, 1 + 3 is 4. Not doing that was 1 + 3 + 4 is 5. So I was very confident I'd answered the questions very well, one and three, and I was wondering why they were not very good where they were not answering the questions very well. So we finished and we're going out of the exam room discussing the questions and somebody just passed their comments that wow, the 5th question was very difficult for him. The one at the back. The one at the back, there was a question at the back I had no. So the 5th question was difficult. I said which 5th question? So I took the answer the the the question paper because we are allowed to take the question paper away. So when I took the question paper and I turned it, there was a question at the back. My world ended. I mean, I knew that was the end. I look back to the exam hall that if I could just go back and tell them that I I did not read the question well and that I can answer the question. I can. I can very capable of answering it, but in the exam room I did not read the instruction very well and got everything messed up. One and three, one and three is 4, meanwhile it was supposed to be 1 and 4 is 5 but don't know how my eyes saw there. No, there was 4 in your head. There was 4 in my head so I didn't even bother. One and three is 4 or 4 questions, 4 answer question, 1 four other questions. Answer question one and four other questions, but I saw it as answer 4 questions. You understand answer question one and four other questions. And I saw it as answer 4. So when I saw question one and the rest, I mean I needed to turn the paper because I could answer all the questions there. So I just take any tray and answer them, not knowing that there was something at the back and I regretted but it was late. I couldn't turn back to correct it and I had to pay for it. I paid the price for it. Wow, some of you will get to heaven and you will say I can, I could, I could have, I could have. I want to go back, but I can't. I know somebody who knows personally past presidents of a certain country whose name begins with AG, like Germany, countries like Germany or Guatemala, he said. That all of them, all those past presidents, they all wish they could go back to do things. That the rather we could have done this when we were president, why didn't we do it? And they are so mess and they are so powerless today. They wish they could go back because there was a time that they had power. And when you come out of it, you realize I asked, So what was I thinking about? What was I thinking about? Hey, so my dear friends, what are you thinking about? You ask yourself one day when you get to us. So what was I thinking about? What was I thinking about? That's one of the reasons why I had this camp. You know, I was thinking if I get to heaven and I was saying if I try and I, if I try and I have a camp every week, every week in my life, I try and have a camp every week from Thursday to Saturday. I thought about it. So see when if I get to heaven? So why, why don't you have a camp with this and a camp here and a camp here and a camp here and a camp here and a camp here? You know, they said let me try. Let's also come to a place when I look back and say that. So what was I doing every week? Thursday to Saturday? Every Thursday, What was I doing? That's why I said I don't want any other non S Africans to come here. I'm going to them. I'll go there. I have time. Now that I'm in power. Yeah. Now that I'm in power, I'll go there. Yeah. Wow. So the Great Commission go to the nation, the places, the groupings, because human beings are in groups and there is no way they will ever blend into one big group, no matter the flag you have. South Africa is made of many different groups. For what? Rainbow. White and black and coloured, You are the country that uses colours to describe yourselves. It's the only country in the world that I know that does that. You use colours to divide yourselves, and amongst the blacks you have more groupings. You don't even marry yourselves or trust yourselves. Yeah, true. So the different groups are waiting for somebody. Go into all the world, go into every province 4 God is waiting for you to get up and go. What a shame when you don't go South Africa. South Africans are known for staying in their own cloisters. S Africans are known for looking inwardly and not looking outward. You cannot travel to any African country and see a South African pastor having a church. Not a large a church. Not a large, just a church. You cannot go anywhere and see a South African, a black South African or a colored South African or a white South African. And you on Indian South Africa and you have had huge churches and ministries that you never see any South African outside your borders. That I am a South African and I've come to Nigeria with a mission to build a church here and establish and do the work you will never see. That is why anybody here who opens your mouth to criticise either a Ghanaian or a Nigerian, you are cursing yourself for coming here because you see they are the opposite of you in this regard. Going out into the world, you can't tell me that God has not moved in South Africa. God has done so many great things that you could have shared with the rest of us. When you come to South Africa, even this place that we are in, there is nothing like this anywhere. Whether the lodge, there's parks, there's that you drive to your country with smooth roads and all these things. We are not used to such things. The rest of Africa doesn't have such things. You have like a super state now. You are, you are just looking inwards. Your eyes are turned this way backwards and inside. It's true. That is why I came to this camp, to take many of you with me to Ghana to train you how to go outside your country. Yeah. Where? Where is it? Macarthan and Caelo and Co, You see, I took you to some countries. You do go to Liberia. Who was the one telling me that when I used to say there's no light, there's no Rd. Is it you? Is it you or somebody else? Or Makayvan? You know when they went out, they realise that look, what you have here is super, super, super something, but your eyes are the invent and it is the sign of a people that are not yet healed. That's how black Americans are. Their eyes are also turned into themselves. You will not go anywhere and see a black American who is having his owner mission. It's like I've come here to build churches for God or whatever really. You will really. But you see white people, but the if you take only black Americans, they formed the eighth richest nation in the whole world. The wealth of only the black American community, the 8th richest group in the world. Yeah. And they only look inside and they don't look out. They can't go out. It's from the oppression that they had. They understand. And the slavery coming out of it, it's not reaching rebellious, being rebellious and fighting, it's an unintelligent way of getting healing. It's just that's just brute force. Let's just fight because we feel oppressed. So let's just break anything around us. No, but intelligently moving forward that shows your healing. Do you understand? So I came here to tell you that you are as wise or wiser perhaps than anybody, anybody else. You are special. You have to give something also to Africa. And if you wouldn't give anything to Africa, give something to South Africa. If you don't care about anybody, care about South Africa, I'm telling you, if you don't like yourselves, you don't care. Right. Care about South Africa. Amen. Are you listening to me? Yeah. And it's a sign of people not healed. They are not healed of apartheid. They are not healed of the oppression that came with the struggle. Whatever you call it, it's not gone out of you fully. Because when it's gone out of you, it's not rebellion, like fighting anything and everything or crime or doing illegal things, but moving forward intelligently with strength, with creativity, and with something new to be a blessing to other people. Which, which, which Black America have you seen coming to stand that you find white Assemblies of God is white, sense of God in Christ is black. You find white people, they will go. I'm sure you have Assembly of God here plenty, not only here in Ghana, everywhere, South America, all over Africa. They will go out and they will die for what they believe. But you, you see, and I'm showing you the statistics. I'm showing you the statistics in 1990690597. We used to watch videos of churches in South Africa which were having revival. We used to watch. I still have those videos. I can show you on the screen here. You will see even people like Bishop Mousasuno and others on it. Young men. There were great things happening here, but no one ever thought of like there's a there's a place called Ghana or Nigeria anywhere. It's not that God hasn't moved here before. It's not that God hasn't moved here. God has been moving here. Even I met one American pastor said that if you want to get certain books, if you come to South Africa, you get certain books. I think, I don't know if Benny who told me that you get certain books you find in South Africa, but you don't find elsewhere. God has moved in South Africa for years, but it's like we stay for ourselves, you know? Yeah. And it is for yourself. What are you doing for yourselves if you even don't think you're only only like yourself? What are you doing for yourself now? Yeah, nothing. Nothing. You're not doing anything for yourselves. I came to encourage you to build your own churches for yourselves and I will continue to encourage you and I'm going to encourage people. Look, no matter, Babu says. And so I went out to sew and so I went out to sew and that's what I'm doing. I'm sewing and I'm encouraging more seats. Yeah, I'm going to internationalise you and take out the narrow, the narrow mindedness, the inward looking. So open your eyes and see that you are blessed and you have something to give. Where is she singing? You see this song? It's our time. Where is Danny? Is that here? Where is everybody? OK, sing it again for me. It's our time. It's our time to believe. It's our time to love and live. There was a time we received, but now it's time for us to give. Standing hand in hand, together, let's reach out and touch our world. Can you hear the Spirit calling? Can you hear the spirit calling? It's a time, It's a time to believe. It's a time to love and live. No other time we receive, but now it's time for us to give. Standing hand in hand together, let's reach out and touch our world. Can you hear the spirit calling? It's a time there. Was a time you received. There was a time we received. There was a time we used to follow. Now it's time for us to lead. It's our world. It's our nation, nation, and it's a place of destiny. It's our time to believe. It's our time to love and leave. There was a time we received, but now it's time for us to give. Standing hand in hand, together, let's reach out and touch our world. Can you hear the Spirit calling? Can you hear the spirit calling? It's the time. It was the time we used to receive. No other time. Time we receive. Now it's time for us to give. There was the time we used to borrow, now it's time for us to land. And there was the time we used to follow. Now it's time for us. Yes. It's the. World it's. The nation and it's the place of death in the. South Africa is a place of destiny. It's a place of destiny. And, and with the death, with the death of Madiba, you see it ends at a certain generation. It's a chapter is finished. It's it's over. It's no more. It's history now. Now there's another generation you, you can sit down and there's no more struggle for any. No one can take it away from you. You are 40,000,035 million of you are black and 5 million white. Isn't it something like that? White people can never rule you again. There is no way you can ever be ruled. So that thing is fast. You will win every No matter what bad thing the government does, you will win that for the next 40 years, the same people will be in power. Yeah, unless some other group is able to divide yourself. But if there is no if it's white versus black, they Charlie, you have one for the next, I mean 100 years you are there and I'm sure the black people are having more children than the, the white. So the voting there, Charlie, you have won cry. That is what you wanted, you won. So what are you going to do now? So my dear friends, it's time for South Africa to rise up and come out of out of looking inwards, OK, and start looking out to do the will of the Lord. Now turn with me to Matthew chapter 3. Prepare the way of the Lord. Amen. Matthew, Chapter 3. Verse one in those days came John the Baptist preaching in the wilderness of Judea, saying, Repent ye, for the Kingdom of heaven is at is at hand. Verse 3 For this is he Amen. That was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, prepare ye the way of the Lord, and make his paths straight, Amen. And the Saint John had his raiment of camel's hair, an 11 girdle about his loins, and his meat was locusts and wild honey. Then went out to him Jerusalem and old Judea and all the region round about Jordan, and were the ties of him in Jordan confessing their sins. But when he saw many of the Pharisees or the far to see and the sad you sees, or the sad to see people come to his baptism, he said unto them, all generation of Vipers in Ghana we call it Onanka. Onanka is a Viper who had warned you to flee from the wrath to come. Bring ye there for fruits, meat for repentance. Think not to say within yourselves, we have Abraham to our father. For I say unto you, that God is able all right to raise up stones as children unto Abraham. Now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which bringeth not for good fruit is hewn down and cast into the fire. I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance. But he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I'm not worthy to bear. He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire whose fan is in His hand, and he will thoroughly pledge his floor and gather his wheat into the Ghana, but he will burn up the chuff with unquenchable fire. Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan and to John, to be baptized of him. But John forbade, didn't say, I have me to be baptized of thee, and cometh out to me Jesus answering, and said unto him, Suffer it to be sold now, for it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. And Jesus when he was baptized, went up straight away out of the water, and lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lightning upon him. And lo, a voice from heaven saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Wow, this summarizes the miss the message. Prepare the way of the Lord. Amen. Before the 1st coming of Jesus there were there was a prophet and there was a message and there was a preparation. Prepare the way of the Lord. And before the coming of Jesus again, there will be again a prophet who is preparing the way of the Lord and who is preparing the way of the Lord in exactly the same way. Are you listening to me? So by the grace of God, tomorrow morning we are going to launch straight into how to prepare for, to see this Lord, how to, how to prepare for ourselves for the Lord in South Africa. And ultimately it will land us in Mission South Africa. Of whom who are going to be the major players in Mission South Africa? I can't see them. I'm not seeing them. Am I seeing them now? I'm seeing them, right? But I don't need any special dream or visions. I can see you right here. You are the ones who are going to be used by the Lord. Amen. To prepare mission South Africa and prepare for the Lord. If you don't do it, then your you would have failed your generation. Now this generation of South Africans will always be blamed and cast for establishing certain evils in this country. It will always be attributed to those here now who voted that two men should marry and two women should marry should be this group. Hitler on the day that he killed himself the 30th of April 1945, said just before he killed himself, he told because his secretary and others were there. He said tomorrow morning, millions of people will kiss me. Yes, tomorrow, when the when the world wakes up, millions will kiss me for what I have brought and what I have done. And it's true. He's responsible for the deaths of more than 50 million people. And so people have thanked him, watched him, created documentaries about him more than anybody else trying to see was it a demon or was it a human being trying to bring out the demon. But they are confused because he looks like a gentle old German man and they are confused by that picture. So remember, when S Africans wake up next 20 years, they look and test you, your generation and you brought backsliding and certain things into South Africa. Or will they look back and praise you? You know, like how we look when we see Kenneth Hagin and some of the great fathers. Even we can see some of the people like Pastor Ray McAuley and Bishop Musa sooner and some of these great people, what they have brought to South Africa. Yeah, but what about you? Yeah. Are people going to wake up and curse you? The you are what you did or what you didn't do? Today when I meet people from French speaking Africa, you can immediately see the difference between French speaking and English speaking. The demos that are in the French speaking are more. Have you ever heard of a French man on board? I know. I heard of the Frenchman abroad. Yeah, because there was no John Wesley in France. They never had that person. Yeah, they had a man called Albert Ropes Pier, Albert, Albert Robespierre, and he brought the French Revolution. That's what he had. But the John Wesley preacher and the William Booth who brought the Salvation Army, they didn't have that in France. So you've heard of a Frenchman or like a white man who is a French man of God. So they don't have anybody to read a French, black, French word, which is half of Africa. They don't have anybody to read up to follow. They don't speak English either. Yeah. When you go into the French world, you see more sex machines. If you think you are sexual, they come. I'll show you sexy French exotic styles. You see, I am saying this to explain to you that when somebody, the absence of somebody, it can bring a test on everybody else who is coming, the absence. You see, there was a king in England and he was allowed to live and John Wesley came and preached and the method is being started at that time. But at the same time there was nobody like that in France and they had a king. So this man came Albert Rosepier and brought the revolution, killed the king and killed any, every important person in the town and brought the revolution. You get it. And I never had such a great any man of God like that. So his absence led to what we have. It takes over hundreds of years. It affects. We are products of Catholics, Methodists, Orthodox. Everybody has contributed to what we are today. Yeah. So when somebody doesn't play his part, we are always limping and we are always twisted because somebody who should have written a book didn't write it. Supposing John hadn't written his book, we wouldn't have known that Jesus raised somebody last four Lazarus from the dead after four days. We wouldn't have known Jesus healed a blind man in John Chapter 9. We wouldn't have known that Jesus killed the man by the pull of Bethesda. We wouldn't know if you abide in me and my words abide the usual last word if you had just not written. And I'm sure that there was a book of Andrew and some other people. They don't. Maybe they didn't write until we are tired. We can write. So Matthew has written. It's OK until you see yourself as important. You never fulfil your your calm. When you see yourself as critical in this thing, you start saying, look, I have to do something depends on me. That's why I write books. Even when I write, most of the time I'm discouraged. When I'm writing, I feel discouraged. I feel who will read this? You can ask my secretaries, those that I work with. I'm always telling them, Who is ever going to read this book? Nobody will read it. Are you sure anybody read any soul that is, somebody will read it. They will read it. Are you sure nobody will read it? I'm so surprised when I see people reading them. Yeah, people read it. But when I'm writing, Devil always says there is no need to write what you are writing. Some people have already written. Don't you see? Some people have already written these things. So the making of books, there is no end. Mr. Mann, put your pen down. But when I see myself as important, that what I'm writing is important and that somebody's life and ministry will depend on what I'm writing on. So sit up and write it. You know somebody, it's important. You, you better write it. It's the same thing for you. If you see yourself as very important, you must value yourself, value your contribution, that somebody depending on you. You see yourself as very important, very important enough for you to come to Ghana. I'm going to make an author talk about to come to Ghana and this time they are going to come instantly. All the camps, you see, I watch you think when I go, I'll be waiting. When I came for this as awake old sleeper, not even one person. I had meetings with people come, we'll come together. We have gone. Not even like somebody went to a funeral, you know, and he said he came back. He said they didn't serve anything. Not a single groundnut, you know, a single peanuts, Peanuts, not even 1, not a single fina came on the mission. But I remember another camp where I came and several of them, they came for dinner with me and they all came to Ghana. But if out of that group stand up, a lot of them, there was a long line of them. They all came. They came. They came to Bible school. Several of them did you come. You came for the dinner, but you didn't come. Yeah, and all those things you see over the years, the years will go, come and go by and you see that, Peter also, you came to Ghana, didn't you? A lot of people came to Ghana. No, no, you came. You didn't have a baby in Ghana. Who had a baby in Ghana? Yeah, you had a baby in Ghana. You had baby. You had all of you. Yeah. They are all pastors. Yeah, they are all here. Some of you came to Bible school. Yeah. Fred Abbess. Yeah. So I tell you, with time and these people, I didn't allow them to command line their view or they are not S Africans. I didn't allow them here. I'm going to see them, Matt, where they are, all of them. They all came out trying to take them out, you know. So there was a generation before, a younger generation, but you came together. Why are you not standing up? Oh, you are too big to start up now. You are not into standing up. You are not. You are not into standing up. Fire, fire, fire, fire. OK. Are you, are you happy? You are very happy. OK. You must be very happy. Hallelujah. There was a generation that came and were trained to look out broader. Broader than the typical person here. Wider. See more, See more. See more than your own little problems. When you reach out, it's not because you don't have personal problems. Sometimes your personal problems are more. But when you reach out, you see that somebody's problems are bigger than you. You stop talking about yours and say, look, let's concentrate on your problem, but not that you don't have personal problems. When a pastor is preaching, doesn't mean he doesn't have problems. We have a lot of problems, but we are seeing other problems too. Amen. Are you listening to me? Yeah. So I want you to see yourself as it depends on me. It depends on me. It is my time. Yeah. And many of you, more than 100, more than 100 of you here are supposed to be seeds. Yes, you are supposed to be seeds who are going to go out and do something special for the Lord and all of you 100 who are here, who God has called, where are you? Can I see your hands? And I'm starting with, I'm starting with where are you? I want to see your hand. And don't raise your hand if you are not serious. Because when I see your hand now that's it. When your hand comes up, now it has been caught. Come, come, come to me in the front. Come listen your hand. Come. Don't look around to see if somebody else is coming. Don't look to your left or to your right. Come, come nearer, come nearer. Seeds. Now see Vazir? And so I went out to sow. Come mission, South Africa. Set down. Your power is broken in Jesus name. Come 100. Go this way. Go this way, go this way. Buddhism. Come and count them for me. Prince or Randy, come and count them 100. I feel that more than 100 people are going to come. Give yourself too. But God loves South Africa. God loves South Africa greatly. I will never look when a man does not have 14,000,000 spends in one ejaculation. Usually you don't get pregnant. You understand, you don't understand, you know ejaculation with it, with it. We measure the spends when we are trying to make somebody pregnant. You count the spends, OK, you need 14,000,000 per meal to get pregnant. When it is below, usually it's very difficult to be, it's possible, but difficult. Even though you need one. So God's method is to produce a lot of seeds. So you, I said there's one person here. You alone can make all the differences. Just one of you here. I don't know who, but I will never discount you. People look and say, so how do you get these people? Because when I look straight, the person I'm seeing that is the person I don't have to look further. You are. God is going to use you. God is going to use you for this. How many people do I have? You are still counting. Corolla. Come on stage. And what's his name? Who plays the piano? What's his name? Tabiso. How many you have, please? 106. Everybody's 106. Very good. 1:06 Yeah. Everybody else, stand up. Everybody lift your hands. It's a very spiritual moment because our camp is starting and finishing. As we start, the power of God is here, Mando Sakabala, receive the grace of God. Now you see, just let them let them down. Just let them, let them down, down, down, down. Receive the power of God and receive the call of God the world. Makes the whole world has everything in his hands. My God. He wants the world to know. Him, my God, receive the grace of God, he. Has called us to the Kingdom for such a time. Receive the grace of God. There was a time we split your hand and everybody. Time for all receive the grace of God. Standing hand and hand together, let's reach out and touch our world. Everybody pray, pray. Lift your hands and pray. Cry with Molly hearts. Listen up, pray. It's our time to know that name. There was a time we leave and now it's time for us to be and the hand in hands together. Let's reach out and come to the world. Can you hear the spirit only? Can you hear the Spirit only? Can you hear the spirit only? Can you hear the spirit falling? Thank you, Lord. Yes, if you hear the spirit and you hear the spirit call. If you hear the spirit call, can you hear the spirit call? It is the time. Can you hear the spirit call it? Can you hear you hear the spirit call it? Can you hear the spirit call? It is the time the other time we receive and I wait, time for us to leave, the other time we use, but no always time for us to leave. There was a time we used to Burrow and now it's time for us to live. It's the world, it's a nation, and it's a place for that Lady. It's a plan to believe in the, the, the, the time for us to leave. It's the world, it's our nation, and it's a place of death. And the, and the time to believe. It is not time to know that name. Can you hear the Spirit? Holy? Can you hear the Spirit? Can you hear your spirit recording? If I have Can you hear the spirit recording? Can you hear the fear recording? Yes, yes. Thank you for your power. Thank. You. For Your Grace, Father, I thank you for all these ones who have come. Lift your hands up in the front here. Thank you for all these who are volunteering themselves. They are the first fruits of many at this camp meeting, giving themselves off and over to your work. Thank you. I pray for the rest. Everybody else, lift your hands for your son. A certain man had two sons. One said, say I go, but he went not, and the other said, Say I go not, but he went. Let it be, O Lord, that all hands lifted up here today be affected by your spirit and your power to take into supernatural seeds planted in South Africa, in every corner, every province, every section, every area and every category of people. I thank you for he who becomes a great work shall surely bring it to a perfect end. Thank you for your blessing and your help in Jesus mighty name, Amen. God bless you. Now listen to me before you go back, all of you here, my prayer for you is that you are going to become special seeds. This group, all of you here are calling you fast fruits of this camp because our campus is only in session for a few minutes. You are already a seed and a fruit. As we go, more people are going to become more seeds. But when I call for you and I say I want fresh fruits, remember that it is those of you here, because I will meet with you before we close by God's grace, Amen. May God send and appoint His Angel to make a straight path for you that you may walk into His will and become socksmen, warriors, harvesters, workers, laborers, ministers, shining lights of the gospel of Jesus Christ into the whole world. May you be brighter, brighter. May you shine brighter than you have ever shown before because of disappointment in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. You may go back to your seats. Hallelujah. Wow. Now, before we finally leave this place and go out of here, we are going to receive an offering. Amen. These people who came from to the front are the greatest offering you can ever give, which is yourself. But now I want us to give some money because we have so many expenses and so many bills and so many of us here have been sponsored to come. Is it not true? And I've been basked here. Amen. So just to make it possible, we want to be generous. No matter how little you have, you must become a giver. I want us to come out of something where we say in South Africa this and this, in South Africa this. And this is a sign of something's wrong because South Africa is even compared to the rest of Africa, more, less you don't have, you have to travel to sea. When we say there is no light in Liberia, there is no electricity at all. From north to southeast and West, there is not even one light. You just can't believe it. In GDD S, there is no electricity at all. You say the poles and there is no, there is no light. So you just don't travel. You see pastor's ministry. Sometimes they have more marital problems than you have ever had, but they minister to you and you see them as helping your marriage. But if you go into pastor's lives, sometimes it's more because of the pressures of the ministry. The problems are even more I tell you, ministry is not from perfection towards imperfection. It's from imperfect to imperfect. That is the ministry. It's from the imperfect to the imperfect. This man when I was in Malaysia. Are you listening now? All those of you who are busy bodies always going in, out, up and down from tomorrow that ministry of busy body is cancelled in Jesus name. Tell your neighbor I'm no more in the busy body ministry from tonight is my last night. I resigned after tonight. Never call me for a busy body ministry again in Jesus name, Amen. When you have busy body, you can easily backslide because you don't hear the message. Yeah, I'll come back to the story I was telling you just now. I was telling you a story of something Malaysia. Remind me. But before I tell you another story, Kenneth Higgin was having a convention in somebody's church. And throughout the convention he was there I think like 3 weeks. Every morning he was doing teachings and evening he was ministry. The pastor of the church never attended the first, the one who invited him, his wife was there, but he didn't come. He was going here, going here, going here, going here every, every time. Then the Lord, he, he met with the wife and he asked the the pastor's wife, do you know that your husband is going to die? And she said, oh, I, I don't know. I don't know what I forget to answer that question. Do you know that your husband is going to die? She said. Let your husband sit down and listen to the teachings. It will save his life. I think he came once and then he continued the busy body ministry. I'll come back to the Malaysian story, but I'm on the busy busy body story now and it's very important that you listen to this. He finished the meeting and the pastor never came to sit down. When he left the Lord told him, can I take him? The pastor who invited you is going to die. So he went and he told a pastor friend he travelled to another town. I forget the exact names of the town, but when I listen to that message again, I will memorize the town name of the town. When he got to the time, he said, you see the church I came from, the church I came from last week, the pastor of that church next week Sunday, he would die in the, he would die in church on Sunday. Yeah, he told the pastor of the next church, you know, he was a travelling part minister. So from church to church, church to church to church, he told the pastor, he said the church I came from, the pastor is going to die next Sunday in his pulpit. And the following Sunday evening pastor was in his pulpit preaching and he died in the pulpit. The the pastor that he came to was afraid. You know, the one that he had come to here was afraid. So I'm just saying this to say that the busy body ministry is a very dangerous ministry. You think you are Ashley, you think you are doing this, you are fixing life, you are connecting this you are doing. All people realise you are not, you are never there and you are always not really receiving what you need to receive. So be careful of that. Back to Malaysia now in Malaysia, I was telling you, you know the pastor of the largest church in the world, you know the Redeemed Church. And when we see the largest church, 2 kilometers by two kilometers, when you give your life to Christ, you take a bus to the altar, you take a bus. You go here, you catch the bus. No, I have to give my life to pass. You go here, you catch the bus and they drive. Yeah. And he's building a new one. Three kilometers by three kilometers. A new one. Yeah. You give your life to price, you go to the bus, bus stop, you take the bus and you go, it's too far. You cannot walk 2 kilometers. He started with about 40 people and the church has become millions. Literally one of my fastest friends. He called me from there this week. He said, look, he went to the new one that they are building. Yeah. And he was in Malaysia, you know, he was there. He preached and I also preached. I was honoured to be preaching. And he's sitting there. Oh, yeah. 72 years old. You know, God has really used him. You know, I I I don't know. Do you know why I'm telling you this story? There's something I want to tell you. I know what I want to tell you. But do you do you remember why I wanted to tell you what I want to tell you? No. The busy body. Not the busy body. Marriage. Perfect, it's not from the, it's not from a perfect to a perfect. It's not a perfect person here. This man with the 2,000,000, three million members, you know, he was talked when he was in Malaysia, he was talking. He said, look, one day he went somewhere and he was there. They said the second lady wants to see him. The lady has a problem, and the lady said she really needs to see him. So when the lady finally was brought to him, when he saw, he recognized that this is one of my former girlfriends. It's not my former girlfriends. Yeah. This is one of my former girlfriends. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he was explaining something and then the lady saw that he was now an anointed person. Yeah. And how he is, I'm in a different dimension. She wanted him to pray for her or pray for the child. Something. Yeah, the former. You see, what I'm explaining is that when God will use you, it's not that you are guru or that you were good or something perfect. Those, those people who like you are good, perfect. Those are the imperfect. You are more imperfect because of your feeling of righteousness and goodness. So brothers and sisters, I am sharing this with you to let you know that what you think is the imperfect ministry to the imperfect. That's why you offer sins as a priest for yourself and for the people. He'll never just offer things for the people. You have to offer for the people and for yourself. Wow, It's powerful. How many of you feel the presence of God here? I tell you, Yeah. So I don't know why I'm telling you all these things, but I'm telling you because there's something you're supposed to hear. God is going to just raise you up and use you. You will be shocked. You will be shocked with with whom God will go to use our monsters. Yeah, God is going to select tomorrow. I will show you stones is about to select stones and it's about to use them. Yeah. So be ready for God to use you. Amen. Take out your offering. No matter how little you have. Never reduce yourself to the chairman, Poverty Chairman of South Africa. You are not the poverty chairman. Tell yourself I am not the poverty chairman of this country. I am the prosperity anointed servants of the Lords. Lift up an offering and offer everybody. Lift up an offering. Now at this conference, let us try not to give coins as offerings. Amen. So that when I say tomorrow is coins day, then everybody will bring coins. But if every day I bring coins, I say tomorrow is coins day, then it's like tomorrow is yesterday. Do you understand? It doesn't make tomorrow a special day because every day you give coins. Then when I say tomorrow is coins day, then it is like there's nothing special about it. Tell your neighbor. Neighbor, Let me see whether is a coin. Let me see whether is a coin? Is it a coin? Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Try and change it. OK, Let us pray. Father, thank you for this offering that we are giving to you today. We are giving because we love you in Jesus name, Amen. Ashes, our received offering.
