03. Examples Of Our Admonition - 1

Welcome to track #3 of the word of my patience. Right. Last one, wrong expectations for child growth. Amen. Wrong expectations for child growth. Now that is, this is one of the things that you have to be careful because the ministry is not 100 meters, the ministry is marathon. Recently when we were at the church group conference in Korea, Bishop pointed out something to us as a look at all these great men who have mega churches, 47,030 thousand, 25,000 big, big churches. He said look at something about them. One of the features is that they are all old men. I get me. So when you appear, you must have hope. You see and and confident. But don't be overconfident. One pastor rebelled against the Bishop and said the Bishop should give him six months. You show him church growth. Church growth in six months. Are you getting that? You have exhibited your extreme immaturity? Amen. So have hope you are going to build a church and to to work and the Lord will give you a mega church. This is Yeah. What do you think? But it takes some time. So don't put pressure on yourself. Don't put pressure. Amen. One of the one of the causes for failure. You see one of the causes for failure, one of the reasons why institutional do well 4 is an indisciplined pursuit of more and you want more, but you are not disciplined in your pursuit. 4 Amen. Your eagerness to build a mega church may lead you to steal other peopleship. Oh, have you heard of Lighthouse? Oh, have you heard? Of lighthouse, which do you go to? Oh, why are you talking about church? Church is here. I mean, so suddenly come, you see, wrong aspect. The church doesn't the church it grows gradually, gradually, gradually. And the Lord added unto the church as many as should be saved gradually. Amen. No, generally. I mean, it could also be that I can just explode, but generally that's how it is. Did you get it? So you should believe God for targets 10 when you get to 10, I am believing God for 20. From 10 to 20 is not 0. You move out to 18, especially from 15 to 18 very fast. Then 18. Then it comes to 13, 11, then 17. Like that but you get to 20 on 20 you're moving 30H50 after 50 to get to 100. Did you get it? So why do I In a rush you'll be discouraged. You fast until there's no more flesh on you. It doesn't take faster. Amen. The increase is given by God. I have planted Apollos have water, but God gave the increase. Do you get it so you you need to be patient, not like the aloof. That's also the extreme you are there 20 for the past three years that oh church there, I mean. Amen. You see now that wrong expectation of growth will lead to something more dangerous, and that end is dishonesty and lying. About. The figures. And what is happening in your church? One of the alumni, he was sent to a town. Yeah. So he was there for some time and the overseer was receiving reports and he was very happy. The church was Grealaris. So 10:20, 30-40. Oh nice. Nice. The income 2. Wow, that guy is really forcing power. We are talking about examples for our admonition. I'll not give you theories or philosophies. The scriptures say these things were written for examples. Amen. Not knowing that he didn't even have a church at. All. Maybe he was. Not staying at his post. He was staying somewhere. And cooking church reports through dreams and visions. They are behind young pictures. They must have dreams and beasts, you know. Yeah. Amen. Did you get it? Yeah. He's no more in the ministry. We send him to another place. He was there one day. Just got. He has resigned. See all these things, they get the start of something, so don't get into it. Amen. A little living, living at the whole. And just a little, just a little. You allow one spirit and then many more spirits. Yes, John. So take your time. You see Lighthouse today we say 1200 branches. It's been a while. Yeah, it's been a while of working at it. Do you get it? Work at it. Just work at it. Work at it. It will work. Anything that becomes quickly flamboyant. Often it is not of God. Yeah, when God is doing something, you may not even notice it. That's why the scripture says, though, that the green be small. So God himself knows that it's that small. Amen. Moses, the great liberal of Israel, was born and hidden. Hidden. Hidden yeah David, the great king of Israel had to run in the wilderness, hide in caves Joseph had to be impeached in prisons the. Savior of the world. Jesus was born in a Manger among sheep, and you couldn't make him out. That is how God. Works. Amen. You you got it. So don't be too sighted. Chalay me Yeah, mega church. Look the pastors in the town where you have gone to let you the anointed room. And your eagerness to be the mega church will not even let you learn why they have not done well. When you take time, you can investigate why maybe they have not done as well as I mean, things should be coaches go there. I mean, a lot of artists come into play. Amen. Do you get it? So you, you become very, you know, agitated. You will not be at peace, you Cook reports. Some wrong, you know, figures that was another alumni but bring in figures, but plus he had other issues. So the overseer sent on a couple of time for for someone to go and do fast track and on one or two occasions he was not there. He was actually physically not there doing the service. But he sent a report of attendance. His message that he preached. He preached everything. He ended up the chair guy was given selling the all the churches, chairs, equipment, everything. He's not. He's no more in the ministry. Remember, it leads to. One Direction. I'm not. I'm talking about people who have finished this school. Hello. What do you think? Wow, I have gone. So relax, there is nothing that you have to do in the re essence Philippians chapter 2 verse 13. It is God which wicked in you, both the will and to do of his own good. Pleasure is God who is at work when you when you are rushing, you even go out of the will of God. Amen. You'll be like, so someone say wait, just wait, wait, wait. I'll come and offer the sacrifice. Wait, wait, just wait. He didn't. So the people were something, something. So he forced himself into the police office. That was it. Someone you have done foolishly, he said. Foresaw. The Lord had intended that you have reigned forever. But now has he taken the King up away from him, you see. So when you are in a rush, you are not patient. Because you are eager to build a mega church. When you oversee our consequent meeting, you feel bored. It's like, why? I mean, I need to go and do some crusades, you know, and and all that. But the Bible says that let everything be done orderly and decently. So you are building a church? But it must be done orderly and decently. God is not the author of confusion. Your overseer or your senior pastor is there for a purpose. So you can't just, I mean, say, why is he calling you? Because look, I mean, we are here. Look, I mean, we have to build a church. Why? He doesn't even the Scripture says we should redeem the time when he gets up this council meeting whatever and then you allow evil spirits more you want to you want to build another church. So you see I mean when you look at all the prophets or the people something something you see that the church their churches are big. You have forced yourself into the office of the prophet and we are seeing things that. So the way that the church have been 15 members for the past 1 1/2 years, you look at this, you tell the centre of professor, I see. Wow. You set up. Are you the one called your shut up and your your your mother lives as. Sacramento. That is why I hear Sacramento. What does it mean to you? I hear Sacramento, you are force yourself. You are offering strange fire. You are offering, you have begun to offer stray fire Amen organizing programs that you can't pay for because I have to organize someone and invite them faster that you cannot afford them. How do you start your checks for congression? I have to invite revenue B. You have to invite Agree. Agree. Invites Nicola Stoker inside Kevin. Don't bring revenue BS. I mean even the water you drink. Why sleep and then now you are sweating, you are talking to the hotel when they look, I mean. OK, don't worry, I'll. Pay later. No, you you invite your your your your, your. I was telling you that one guy, he invited his own friend, they finished the same year, the other convention, said Charlie Come. And at that convention, he as he was missing, he saw somebody with a short leg and I said come, come and he pulled the short leg, he pulled the ground. Amen. So a lot of things will go wrong with that decision I got in that yeah, relax, God will work with you. You got it. God will build his church. Jesus said I will build my church. It's Jesus who will build his church. He said I will build my church and he will build the church with you with the help of the Holy Spirit all. The scriptures about change open to God as of me, and I will give you the hidden for that characters, the utmost parts of the earth for that possession as of me. Every good gifts and every they come from about doesn't come from me. Yeah, I will yet for this be entered off by the House of Israel. To do it for them, I will multiply them with men. As I will yet all. Them scriptures about they point direct. To God. Did you get it? So you can't force it. That about the force, they say we should use anacazo, you know, Oh, that is true, but we must put it in the right perspective. Amen. But don't go and sleep. Don't go and relax. Don't let somebody just take away your baby. Amen. When two women appeared before King Solomon with one child, one baby, the woman who didn't have that, whose child was not the baby, she said to the king, divide, divide, divide, divide. But the mother of the baby said don't kill my baby. There was something within here, something, something like don't kill, don't kill my baby. So there must be a spirit of discontentment, godly discontentment. Lord, do something. Lord, build your church. Lord, bring the increase that is different from a certain hasty, you know, moving around. This is what I'm saying. Agitated all that. It will help you. It will make you to. It will lead you to make the wrong decisions. Hallelujah. Amen. Please turn on my phone. Where's my phone? My phone must be on please. Hallelujah. Wow. Next one. Dishonesty. Lying, dishonesty. Lying. Lying about church attendance. Lying about income, lying about paying your hello. What do you think? One day an alumni came for shuffling and his overseer had had issues with him about the income of the church. When the income is added, it doesn't correspond to the number of weeks of preaching and it has been back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. You know, then as he was sitting down there defending himself and everything, he was as do you pay your that's all. I pay my time up to date. So up to date busy. But we have we have we have then started using Gujarpet. So then, then, then, then went on Gujarpet and lo and behold, there was nothing. And now he confessed that yeah, for some time now I've not paid lying about church attendance. You have 20 people who say 50. Who are you deceiving? Even He's 20, he's 20. Even when you count, you should try and take the lowest figure so that it will motivate yourself. So when they when they come, they say, oh, they were about about 55 people. So we we we missed but about OK. 50. So that you'll be motivated. I need to do more. Amen. Lying. Now do you know what you are doing? You are sowing the wrong seats in your church. You you may think that you are putting a fast one, but you are actually sowing evil spirits because sowing your church will be full of liars, dishonest people, people who are defrauding people, liars. I mean businessmen, husbands who are cheating all kinds because as the shepherd is. So is she? Your spirit is what is in the church. Yeah. Huh. What do you think? Lying. Dishonesty. Just say the truth. How many? Part 2020. We all know that it is. Not easy to build a church. Your your even even you overseer. When you tell him that you have 200 people, he's not impressed. It's not like you're coming to say something to impress him because you have suffered and moved through all those things. Did you get it? Yeah. And then because of what we are saying, so so, OK, so our church is due then we have no advice to give you. Oh, you are doing well. We have. We have nothing. To tell you. Congratulations, what we must share with you to really help you. We are not sharing because we are doing so well. Amen. You don't need a physician. You rather tell other guys you are not doing well. Have you seen this guy not knowing that Amen. One day there was this pasta sending wrong figures. So to ascertain it, somebody was actually sent to now go and. Be in the service. The person went and counted. When a person left, the figure that was sent was different. So now the overseer himself. Is that OK now? So himself he arrived in the church, preached and counted. This day, Oga Qatar, Qatar in Serbia appeared in the place. When he left and the report came, it was still different. Amen. Wow. Next one disobedience to instructions and guidance. Disobedience to instructions and guidance. You'll be cut off because this is soon. Nobody is going to advise you. We. Often think that the person who sacrifices is greater than the one who obeys. The word sacrifice brings to us terrifying images of suffering and loss. Obedience seems to be a much milder and less demanding option. In fact, our human analysis would rate sacrifice above obedience any day. Once again, God's ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not our thoughts. He makes it clear that to obey is better than to sacrifice. The word better means greater to be preferred, an improved version, superior, enhanced, more acceptable, more favorable, higher quality, augmented, and more desirable. This vest therefore means it is greater to be preferred, superior, more acceptable, more favorable, and more desirable to obey than to sacrifice. Why is obedience to be preferred to sacrifice? When we sacrifice, we often know what we are doing and why we are doing it. Amen. Why have you been buying a lot of credit to call your beloved? Because you know what you want. Did you get it? So. So when you are left with two Ghana cities, I have options to, to, to eat, to buy, you know, a CD or whatever. You say no, let me sacrifice and buy some units. Do you get it? But you know why I am not benefiting from it. We know we are going to suffer. And we know the reasons for suffering. Why is it more desirable, favorable, and more acceptable to God when we obey #1 So why obedience is better or greater than sacrifice? Why obedience is better than sacrifice #1 It is greater to obey without fully understanding than it is to sacrifice, because often when we are asked to do something. You see, the human nature wants to know why when were students in the former Soviet Union, the Russians didn't like Ghanaians, They didn't like us, you know, and many things were better in academics in the way we carried ourselves and all that. But there was one thing that made them not to like us, and that was because. When you ask the Ghanaian to do something, the first question was. Why is it a common system? You don't ask questions. So sleep. We are sleeping. Rise up. We are rising up. Go. We are going, you see? So why you tell the Ghanaian sleep? Why? So it's like we're too known. Hey, man. The greatest blessings in my life and ministry have come from obeying God rather than sacrificing to Him. Most of the time it is not easy to understand the implications of what you are doing. Amen. The reason why we we do not understand is because of our level of growth or our state of maturity in the Lord. I believe that we will never fully understand what God has asked us to do until we begin to do it. Amen. Notice this scripture. It shows us that it is when you do the will of God that you know His will. John 717. If anyone will do His will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God or whether I speak of myself. Amen. So This is why it is. Greater for you to obey than to sacrifice because often you know the reason why you are sacrificing. And if especially it benefits you, you go through it, you get it. Yeah. That is why people get married. And then the, the, the, the, the man who allowed the, the wife to go and stay abroad to do a course for two years, three years. That's like he's sacrificing. But while she's there, if he goes to visit and she becomes pregnant, that child is giving birth in America, birth to in America. The child has become American citizens. All that is part of the calculations. Are you getting that? Are you ready to obey #2? It is better to obey a command than you that you will not naturally. Do. Than it is to sacrifice. It is better to obey a command that you would not naturally do than it is to sacrifice. When the Lord directed me into the healing ministry, I did not fully understand the effect it would have on my ministry. Until then, I operated mostly as a teacher and preacher. Naturally speaking, I'm a more calculating and logical person. It was not natural for me to move by the spirit or minister or minister things that are spiritual. It's one of the most difficult things I've ever done and I'm ever grateful for people who helped me cross that barrier. Today I've seen many miracles in my ministry. I can say it is the one thing that has made a great difference in my present ministry. Amen. So maybe what you are being told to do, naturally you wouldn't like to do it. Did you get it? Yeah, but that may be the key to your ministry. Naturally, you want to minister to Ashantis. But now we are sending it to the Upper West. Why? You have to force and learn the language. Hello. Yeah. But maybe that is how. God. Is going to give you a very wild ministry, yeah. So just Flo. Just Flo when Abraham picked the knife and was ready to slaughter his son. The Lord said now I know, now I know, now I know. Amen. Some of you, it looks as if that you have no obedient. Maybe you have, but maybe not. Maybe I've found a way of really going about things and now that you are going there, we are going to see the real picture. Hallelujah. Is it powerful? Next one. It is better to obey instructions you do not agree with than it is to sacrifice. It is better to obey instructions you do not agree with than it is to sacrifice. Disobedience often sets in when you do not agree with the instruction given you. When God instructs us to forgive an obviously rebellious person, we may not readily agree with Time you discover that forgiveness is greater than revenge. Whenever you are wronged, there is a very self-righteous feeling that makes you want to correct and pay back. It is not easy to ignore that feeling. Great blessings have come my way as a result of forgiving the people that wronged me. It is not always easy to agree with God's style of doing things. Amen. Wow, last one. It is greater to obey humbling commands than it is to sacrifice. I'm just reading from the book to you. Amen. There are others talking to you about obedience. I just remember that, you know, is I can mine it, mine it somewhere I just mine it. So you must know the books and know even where. You can find what #4 it is greater. To obey humbling commands than it is to sacrifice. Many of God's commands humble us. You could say that the number one characteristics of God's instruction is that is that they humble you. They often make you look foolish in the eyes of men or in your own eyes. When God told the prophet, go and sleep with the prostitutes or go and marry a prostitute. I understand now the newspapers are writing about you. Amen. Last one, It is better to obey instructions that don't require your wisdom than it is to sacrifice. Wow, so well read the rest. But the point I was making is that do not sacrifice, obey. Hallelujah, next one Russian to choose a marriage partner. Against godly advice, one alumna arrived in a certain country, his first, one of I think his first or one of the first exploits was to go for a beloved, an indigeny of that country, a place where the HIV rate, prevalence rate is very, very high. So the overseer said take it easy, take it easy. And it's true that that is in the church, my engorged church, everybody is there. So the pastor was encouraged. The guy freaked out. Freaked out. Not happy talking? Then the pastor said OK, let's take private conversation. OK, let's do the tests. And he saw that, you know? Do you want to tell the girl that? Do you know what? Not that they say, not that they say it is what I know. Examples for her admonition. This whole thing, this organized theme. He became rebellious. So we said, brother, all right, relax. It is important who you marry, very important. It is so important. Not also you have studied about all the great guys and the struggles in marriage, how it affects you, the ministry, how it affects you, something that even for marrying, even just marrying the Bibles that those who marry. Shall suffer a lot of problems. Not, not, not that those who marry a good one or this one, but but just marry before now, before now who have you married? You've got to take your time. So. So what a blessing when you have an overseer, a senior pastor. Just relax. As you have a right. Let's take would all help in this thing. Is it because because of your youthfulness and incontrollable feelings associated with strong erections? Strong erection that cannot be relaxed. No, because after school the erections will still be there. And now, because we are anointed, this is the virgins when they see you. One day, one of the alumni, he was preaching in church Sunday. I mean, he was preaching. Then suddenly he, he saw something. There was a sister who was sitting in front and she was flapping, ah, initially, immediately, he said, because she was preaching in the park, so he even thought that it was her hand starting. Wait, wait, wait. So, so he said, oh, that's why not be anything, because she has something. And. But as he look. Instead of something, he was sitting a forest Bush. What a suck. Hey, so recently he got married and he did something that I have not seen before. When we said you may kiss the bride, he removed the the veil the the the pastor who was with the flapping system. So he was standing house wondering what was he going to do? So suddenly I saw a certain movement of his leg. So I was wondering that he he then he, he, he did like this. That's the A. Then he held there the lady and the lady Sati, and then they made their mouth like this. Is it because you are so safe? You know, you know, normally if enough people, they feel shy, they just then we say, oh, no, no, no, no, no. We didn't see like that. This one, I have to say it's OK. One day a certain pastor was doing visitation. He was doing visitation. So he called one of the Czech members, a lady. I said I'm doing visitation. So at a certain point I'll come and visit you. Says that. So OK, so I mean, he was doing his visitation, but he began to experience something unusual because from time to time the church member, the the woman church member, the girl church member, we'll call him the Ah, but are you not coming to visit me? So how? How come I'm doing some other? Then the lady will call again. So eventually the time came and he arrived at the girl's doorsteps. He arrived with a sister and another brother. So when he knocked and the lady opened, she and when the lady saw him, and there wisdom and and prudence, Yeah. She exclaimed. Oh, what a shock, pastor, everybody said. Oh, and the pastor told me that. They told me that that day from how the lady had dressed and presented herself if she had not. Gone to this people that would be late. Amen. One day I went to preaching in church. So Leonard sit where you are good. So I was preaching. I was preaching. Very powerfully. Then suddenly when I there's a lady there shot, shot. So everything so almost like you can see all. So I said, I said, Oh no beater, I'll watch. So I turn this way. Then I tend this way, then after. I find. Do I catch it? I'll watch. Just preaching moving. Hey, it's not easy. So because of all this, you can easily rush to marry somebody agency down. I mean this type of people, a man participate his wife. Huh. So when you get a senior pastor or an overseer who encourages you and say, look, relax, we work at it. But to work we find somebody. What a blessing. But this guy became rebellious. He's like, look, whether he charge you or whatever, allow me, hey. Amen. Sit down. How many times have you not heard the Bishop speaking up by the wife? So she says support. She's an encourager. She helps me. It matters who you marry. It matters. Sisters, be careful you don't go and marry a businessman when he wants you come to church. Oh, you can't cry. When does the service start? 8 by 715. That's a big Bible. He's very serious, so he's not serious at all. Amen. While you marry him, we allow you to go to church one month, two months, that under our third month. Why you take your Bible and say why are you going? So I'm going to say what which church are you a wife or a pastor? I married I married a wife, no sister when she put the Bible that. Will just sit. Well, well today, today's Sunday, I want for food, garnet soup and something. Wow is it working. Next one Marital disharmony Marital disharmony stroke marriage related problems Number one beating, beating of wives, beating of wives. When we are there, then your wife will come. I've been beating her. Your house too, that you have rented is a compound house. Pastor, you are a person that is settling disputes and all that. They are hearing your room. Your wife is crying and shouting, slapping, putting her up and down. That's why alumni beating the wife. We are not here to talk about philosophy. Governor says they think that we are giving philosophy. Alumni of this school victim. Amen. Adultery. Leaving your wife or your husband sleeping somebody else. Yeah, one person. So it's rather chasing somebody else. He wouldn't sleep. With the wife, he wouldn't sleep with the wife 1st. The excuse was that the wife was living apart. Where? Where he was, the wife was somewhere else working, you know whatever. OK, so the wife arrived. Nice wife. Oh nice wife. But because he was enjoying. Stolen waters. How many of you realize that they are wild things, they are very wild things and just before you say that he can't control himself. These people they are whatever then that's why God added the state verse 12. Let him that think it that he stand it take it. Let's say 4. It means it can happen to you. We have to pray and say, O Lord, please save me, save me, save me. Craving another one? Craving for divorce. Craving for divorce? You have been married for just one year, 2 years. There's a little problem. No, no, no, no, no, no. You know this person. No, he doesn't like not knowing that there were story waters and against all godly cancer and everything. He actually divorced the lady I married one or two years. And we also told him that. The fathers that we have come to meet and the spirit that in the ministry, that's not what it is. So we can't have such asperity. There's the door, it's out, it's out. Cancellation of ministry. That is why. You can't just marry in spite of youthful physiological motivations. Amen. Wow, how many do you have? All right. I will argue with you last one. Inability to flow in the position of the assistant, inability to flow in the position of the assistant and this one will lead to you not shining in the ministry. Amen. Wow, what better example can you have all the the ministry of the assistance than what you have had to? See a great man of God like Bishop Saki. And Bishop Adi assistant and join him happily because that will say me I want to assist with joy. Amen. His name is shining. When you are put in your place, and that's one thing which I've always said, look, let's put the person in his right place so the person will shine. I want the person to shine. I want the person to do well. When you are you are a square peg and you are put in a round hole, it won't work. And they are alumni of this school who have not done well because they have. Forced themselves into offices that they don't belong. There was one guy, I mean, when it comes to fixing things, connecting. Oh, you'll be happy. He went with his friend on the field. Oh, it's going to be powerful. As we are preaching, he's also making sure that other things. Have been filled the music. This, this, this, this. Sadly. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He also wants to start his church. He went to start a church and failed miserably. Miserably. Then here comes a Good Samaritan, one of our missionaries. I said, oh, come and do this thing for me, the thing that we knew that, you know, he could do. So he left with this person. Later we met. The the the mission I. Said ISIS. Oh, the guy is great. The guy is great, The guy is great. You know why he's great? Because you are doing what you have to do. Not everybody can lead. Somebody has to lead and somebody has to assist. If we we complement each other, you should always say, look what I'm doing. I need a lot of people to help me. It took Joshua and her to keep the hands of Moses there for the battle to be won. They could never have won the battle if they have refused to play their roles. Amen. And in the in the the is it an ark where the mercy city that the that box? Is it an ark when you open it, when you open their threatens? There's the law, there's manner and then there's Aaron's road, that bandit. So the law speaks about Moses, who was the leader. You see the leader, the manner talks about the word of God that they lived by and the Rod talks about the position of the assistant. So the leader, the Wedd and assistant were all in the same place. God put all of them there. Some of you are clear assistants. When he went to meet the mission board, they were calling me. The guy says he's can lead. They said what is your day? I said I had one way. It is his decision, it's your choice. Then I'm going to test he's vehemently what you have. Can you say as it is a stress you have age because that's what we are saying. I am yet to seek anybody that we have accessed as we have produced pastors. I said this person is a good ass who have shifted from that position who have done well. I'm yet to see anybody now. Yeah, you may think you see, but you may not be seen. Well, you may think you hear, but you may not be hearing. Well, when the child somewhere heard the voice of God, he said that is the voice of a human being. It took an older prophet because it's the voice of God and the voice of my man are very close. But another prophet had the same words. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. This one, this one. No, no, no. This is God, this. Is God be happy as an assistant pastor? If that is how? That's where your strength is. The skills, the ability that God has given to you. You get it because it's very difficult to lead. You have to look somewhere and stand somewhere and you are always fighting. Leaders are not nice people. Leaders like Jesus. When we looked on him, there was no beauty in him. That my desire. Leaders are fighting, always fighting, but just facing issues, solving this thing up with me. They are not nice people. Assistant, very nice. Calm the people down and you can do that. You can do that, huh. You are very 98.5% somewhere. Let that will be happy. I mean, recently when we had a pastel's grill, do you see what they're trying to talk make a why we have no code through the mic. Instantly the whole place was lightened up. We all started laughing. It it it comes very natural. Have you seen that story that Remyogo tells us about a certain person who was sitting somewhere? And then he talks about the people who have taken their. Meat. And Omari Nami, do you remember that story? I was fulfilled. I was with him, I was with him. I heard a story for me. But when I saw him talking about it, dramatizing it and saying this is a gift, he just asked me. I said oh. Yeah, he was there. He said that this he said that even even. Oh, OK, it's finished. This is what I'm saying. It's like it you have it or you don't have it. This Anna take it no man or do this except he is called as was hero. So don't force yourself. Don't force yourself to go and offer strength fire like these guys. What are their names made-up and people? The fact that you are, you are, you are the sons of the priest. That's what mean that you belong to that office. Amen. So we have seen people who should have humbled themselves built together and also the Bible says 2 are better. Than 1/2 are better than one. One will put to flight 1210 thousand so you can go on your own. I've had several the Illumina who have told that the mistake I did was not to have gone on somebody. As they are alone, they are lonely. One guy was telling, very nice guy was telling. When I leave the church to go for the auto, there's nobody around. We are all assistants to the Bishop. Wherever we are, wherever we are standing, we are assistant. Why don't you want to become like one of us? Even if you are the head of the church, we are assistant. And that's it. When the Bishop asked me to leave the Sacramento church to go to Collegoro, there was no strength, my Czech member, there was nothing like mourning, weeping. I'll go for you. There was something like that because over the years I kept on reminding them I'm a servant. This is not my church. I can be asked to move to another place anytime. I had their minds prepared. All the time and that is the case. So when the time really came, the rather ah, that's what you have been saying all the time. We are all assistants and you are not a leader. I have told you and you only live. To see it. Fine, protocol doesn't allow me to mention this. People that I heard that they were saying that they are going to lead. When was the last time that you saw a central defender #5 a striker or taking penalty? Now when we are a central defender, you stop the ball and then you kick it even off. You don't mind you, you don't mind the direction. What is that you ask us to? We don't want the ball around, so just kick it, hand it out, footage, whatever. But when we are a midfielder, you need to give precision passing, defense, splitting pass. So your touch of the ball is different. A striker you should be able to straight shooting straight because you can't be over the Bard. Straight, straight, straight. That's why initial we didn't like as a major four days ago we are even we have started go already. No, the way they said is they have shut up go already. Then surprisingly over the back he has fallen down. He's holding his head. No, you watch and see. That's how they say, must see. When they say critical permit, they will call the central defender John John Mesa. Wake up. This. What is it? I wonder who chose him? I don't blame him. I blame the person who chose him. Amen. So it's very important. It leads to frustration, failure. Many of the people who have gone to start their own chest their assistance. Not that well, you have small, small social churches. But the clear leaders have successful churches. You tell someone like Pastor Lobo Noble, say reverend now who is not reverend, why he was he was so strong a leader. I mean, we have to cool him down. Some of some of the things we again have to cool him down. You get it. See, we have ordained Him, but we have not ordained the people who sat in the same class of Him did it. God wants you to shine. That is why He has built in you. You have inherent abilities. Who you are didn't come from you. God made you so. He told, he told. Lucifer, you are an anointed child. Your wings are full of tablets of music. But he reminded him I made you so. Amen. I have. Said this so. Wow, is it working? Next one sexual immorality. Sexual immorality. Amen #1 secret sexual weaknesses and sins that were not dealt with in the course of the training. Amen. Whoa, what do you think? Sexual immorality, secret sexual weaknesses and sins that were not dealt with in the course of the training. Some of you are not transparent. Yeah. So there are things that all of us could have helped through prayer counselling. Guidance, you see shyness, experiences you could have overcome, you didn't. So when we start out there, that thing follows you. Sleeping will beloved. Amen. We are finishing sleeping with beloveds. Sleeping with church members Some of the alumni have slept with their church members. Yeah, and when we go into it, some of these guys, while they were in school, they were doing things like that. We didn't even know. Do you get it? That's why we are here. Yeah. Do you get it? Let me show you a scripture in 3rd John. We are coming to the end of this session and then we are going to take a break for you to eat, rest, and then Bishop would come. OK, First John, chapter 1 from verse 6. First John, first John chapter one, verse 6. If we say that, we have followership of him. And walk in darkness. We lie and do know the truth, but if we walk in light as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us. From all sin. Hey man, so we are supposed to walk in light so that we can fellowship one the other. Hallelujah, huh? Do you get it? Yeah, all that we are saying there are examples, examples, examples. Fornications people have checked members, you know, and why you are going to start your church. Isn't this pastor who had the flapping sister? Later on, it was found out that the sister had slept. With a pastor in that town and the passes church has sport and the pastor has left town. So it was a second. One of the things that you have to do is that you have to, you have to talk about it freely with your senior pastor overseer. You have to admit and say, look, when I see this sister, I feel something bad. Yeah, maybe we have to transfer. Maybe we have to transfer this sister to another branch? Yeah, after fornication, the answer is flee. Flee. Got it. What does it mean? It means here is a listen. Is it the devil be tell you are not strong. You are not I'm not say yeah, yeah. How many of you realize that you are not strong? You know, listen, yeah, I'm weak. But that is, that is how you stand, because in your weakness, my strength is be perfect. Look, don't go here all the cases of fornication is that that. I've gone through So what happened? So you you see that people just felt that they were supermen or superwoman. Even you lady pastor, if there is a brother, a chief shepherd or. Who comes to your house to? What You are the lady pastor? Look, you'll be very surprised. Now you'll be asking, So you say you say, where else should I attend? You say, you say I didn't like this, so I OK, which other one? Amen. Hello. And finally, avoid big manism. I'll end here. Avoid begmanism. And finally, do not abandon the ministry. We have had people who finished this school who never did ministry. They abandoned. They didn't do it. Some of them abandoned. Some of them didn't even start at all. Avoid begmanism. Be a practical leader. Get to the job. Do you get it? Yeah. Arrange the chairs. Yeah. Help to clean the place. Sort out the place. At a certain. Stage of the chair scientist that Bishop said he will come and arrange the chairs for people's weddings. Is that also? Yeah. Do you see unnecessary manism? 11 alumni just started a church. He was now travelling for convention with his secretary. Yeah, recipe for disaster. Hallelujah. All these things were written. My prayer for you. Is that this will not be your story. Stand on your feet and lift up your two hands. Father, we thank you for your word. We thank you. O Lord, keep us. Cause us to be wise, cause us to fulfill our ministries. We love you. We will bless you. Thank you, O God, for the moments ahead as we gather at the feet of your servant, the Bishop. Speak to us, instruct us, direct us and bless us in Jesus name, Amen. Give the Lord a wonderful Hallelujah. Please be seated now. This is what you are going to do. You are going to take a rest. Sleep, eat, sleep. Take a rest, OK? These are the instructions from the Bishop. Sleep, eat, sleep, take a rest, whatever, until you are poor. Because when we come, not not all night. We may end tomorrow night. So I saw one or two. People sleeping, it cannot happen. I'll tell you something with Bishop, there can be two things. The first one is that you will leave the whole camp. Yeah, you will leave the whole camp. That can happen. Or you will be asked to leave. Amen. So please, there are some other things and that's an instruction. So I want you to go and eat, rest, relax, sleep and be refreshed. So when you come, you'll be refreshed. And I believe that it's going to be a wonderful time. Amen. So no, no talking, walking around, chatting. You know, there's nothing. I ask, are you getting that? Just listen to it, OK? And I believe that you'll be blessed. God bless you.
