04. Five Facts About The Call Of God

Welcome to track #4 of lay power. Onto some good works that you are supposed to do, not the apostles, Amen. It's a it's a Christian thing. And so until you do those good works, you are not. And if you are not going to do those good work, then I think that you should just go now. All right, move it. All right, move it now. And that is one of the reasons why Christians die, yes, because we are not doing what we are supposed to do. We are not needed. And it has been determined that we will never do it. So take him off. It's true. Take him out. He's not doing and will not do out. This is one of the reasons why Christians die at different stages of our lives, because the thing that you are supposed to do is not being done or you don't understand what I'm saying. Yeah, if I put you in my house to be my God and you sleep when I am sleeping, you are also sleeping. What is the use of you to me? Because I'm not being guarded? One day in the church I used to have, if you watch some of the old videos, you see I used to have a bodyguard behind me. That guy could actually sleep on his legs and stand like that and sleep as he's standing now. On two occasions I was attacked. Two different occasions. One time I was sitting in a chair and a guy ran from downstairs and came. If he had been holding a knife, he would have just stabbed me and he ran straight and attacked me. And I had to struggle with this guy with my leg to my legs. My feet were in his chest. Seriously. As we fought on the stage. Yeah, I was in my suit. Everything Sunday, do you remember? And the bodyguard was nowhere to be found. Then on another occasion, I don't know if it was that bodyguard, but one of these guys used to stand on another occasion, I was standing there and there I saw somebody talking and I said, look, look at it, look at it. He's coming to attack me. I can see straight now. The so-called bodyguards were of nowhere, nowhere to be found. That's why you don't see these kind of people around me anymore because I realized that for real, my real the time that I was attacked, they had no contribution to make to my life. They were of no value. So I said Charlie, I removed it from there. Now before I Hitler, Hitler on the occasions that he assassination attempts were made on his life, he, he said himself, he told his s s commander Himmler, he said, look, on the occasions when assassination attempts were made on my life, my life was saved by my own change of plan because he would change his plan. Suddenly. That was one time he was making a speech. They had time, the bomb to go off at 20 minutes, 14 minutes into the speech. He stopped in me. He stopped. You see yesterday how I stopped preaching and I finished. I went off. Those of you when I stopped and I went, that's how he stopped abruptly and just moved off the stage. 6 minutes later, the bomb was under. It went off. So many people in front died. Yeah. And he told the guy that you all your troops had nothing has saved me. Just my own way of living suddenly has saved me. You understand what I'm talking about. And I'm saying that my bodyguards were also like that the time that I was at attempts were made on my life. They were nowhere to be found. So what do you do? You, I remove it. I remove it. So when you are not doing your real function, that's why you see, I can't be sure of my life because how can I be sure that I'm really doing what God wants me to do? I mean, how can any pastor know for sure that you are really doing what God wants you to do? I'm always unsure of my life. Those of you who are sure of your lives, I'm always unsure of myself. From my own experience, I've seen death like this. I was driving to Tamalay and I said, Lord, how many pastors will come here? I've come all this way and I've come to kill me with other pastors. Why you, you, you, you wonder. So brothers and sisters, I just want to give you a warning. If you want to live out your life, you better check your life. You better wait on God to be sure that you are in his will and you are doing what he wants you to do. Otherwise you. You can't be withdrawn from the field for reasons British are clear that you are of no use to the battle any longer. You have your you are irrelevant to the whole picture, so you must be extracted. So listen on, because as we laugh and we are joking, or it seems that they are joking, it's very, very serious that we are created for particular things. And if I cannot use it, what is the use of it to me? If I have a car that I cannot use, what is the use of the car to me? If I have bread, I cannot eat. If I have money, I cannot use. What is the use of it to me as I whenever I want to pay for something, I cannot pay. When I want to eat, I cannot eat. When I want to drive, I cannot drive. When you clear out all these things from my life, they are just taking up space. Let me have something that is useful to me, to my purposes, and to my functions and what I'm trying to do. So you better be careful. You want to live out all the 70 years. You want to live. As long as God has ordained for you to live, you better find the purpose for we God took His time to create you and have you out and make you. Don't just assume that you are in the will of God. How do you know you are in the will of God? How do you know you are in the will of God? You must pray about it and you must seek your to, to do His will and to be in His will. I tell you your life depends on it. You think it's a joke. Serving God is no joke. That's where you have to learn how to be afraid of God. It's called the spirit of the fear of the Lord. You must also be afraid. Pastor Kakra, Prophet Kakra Baden, he told me when he was coming into ministry, he said me, I feel that I would die if I don't enter this thing in full time ministry. That's what he told me and that's also what I feel and that is what was written on Bishop Sake's door. War is me if I preach not the gospel. Death lies at the door of those who refuse the call and who refuse to submit to the master's will. Death lies at their door. Death lies at the door of those who choose to live out their lives for their own purposes and not for the purpose for which the person brought. Many times I have argument with contractors and workers and people who are doing things for. I said, my friend, this building you are building, you are building it for me. You're not building it for yourself. You're not doing what you want for yourself. I am the one telling you what to do and you are. I'm paying the one paying you. Why do you always do what you want to do? And the person who has brought you are not doing what he wants. This is what causes you to say, I don't want to work with this person again. I'm struggling too much with this person. The person who has brought you has a reason why he brought you to come and work. It's not what you want. It's what God wants. It's what the person who pays and keeps you alive is the one what he wants. When Ida is singing, he's not yet to sing lullabies around or just to sing any song that is whatever. There's only one person in as far as her job is. Nobody identified her as a singer. I I said OK, sing. If I say that she's not you see what where she and what I really hear of her again. You may never hear of her again. There are a lot of people with good words. What is the name of that program? They make no mentor. The one that they will be singing audition African. They had one African one. There are so many singers. Anytime you hear people singing, sing, sing, sing, sing, you'll be surprised. You, you see right now you have no use. You'll not be found anywhere. Go and find how many people used to sing in school. When I saw her, she was a student. How many people were singing in school? Johnny, you were singing in school. How many people who are singing in school today you see them after school? Yes, after school. They still stand on the stage and hold the microphone and sing. So you, you, you see, you have to be careful because when you don't please the person, it just sits there quiet. Even she knows when she's singing. And she and she knows I don't. I don't like what she sings. She knows I just get up and start to preach and she knows I'm not interested. And she would even summarize the song and just go and retire somewhere. Yeah, because all the what she's doing has no interest to me. One day some three singers were brought to the church. They came to sing and they sang. And I said I didn't even look at it, but I don't understand what they were singing. Yeah, I didn't understand it, and it has no benefit to me. Yeah. So brother says that you have to be very careful. The one who calls you, the one who sends you, the one who has made you his workmanship, and the one who said, OK, I'll put you there. Charlie, be very careful with him because he can remove you suddenly think not. Oh, God. Look, Yongicho, let me tell you, Yongicho, he took a picture on the graduation of his Bible school. There were 5050 of them. Some years later, he was looking through the picture. Only five of them were still in the ministry. The rest have become, well, this, this, this. And only five of them were still alive. The five who were, that means you were the five who were alive. The rest were dead. Yeah. 50. So you see, my brother, listen carefully. When God is telling you to do something, it's not. You don't have a choice. It didn't mean me. If I tell you to do, you don't have a choice. If I said you don't have a choice, If I say do this, you don't have a choice. If I say out, I can organize a car just now. You go to a you sleep in a car today, you can get a car right now. You go to Accra and I'll let Ako play and other keyboard. Anybody who knows how to play keyboard, rise up, stand up, stand up. If you can play keyboard, come, come, come. All of you come, come 1234 come. And if you can play just out out all of you and you can play best take over and get out of that place. That's it. Out removed to the door, 1/2 to the door. You can play keyboard start be on it. Drums, you can play drums. That's it. I mean, some cannot even get less access because you are playing Palo Go when I want to hear another song. Do you know Palo Go there's, there's even play, play some nice music, some jazz something. I mean, Ida, I just want to be where you are. I just want to be where you are, heart dwelling, deadly in your prayer. We are doing without. Them I don't want to worship from my father drumming near to where you are. I just want to be where you are to when to boldly in your friends. Take me to that place where you are. You're mini to where you are. I want to be with you, I hope, welling in your brass eyes there this thing at your table, oh, oh, surrounded by a glory in a your press time. That's where I always want to be. I just want to be within. Be where you are waiting in your presence. This thing on your table is surrounded by your glory day in your presence. That's where I always want to be. I just want to be. I just want to be with. You I organized transport for them to Accra. Suddenly you see, that is how powerful even a human being is so powerful. I can change that and I can literally in South Africa where anyhow any place you go to the right on it right of admission reserved. I have the right to have anybody to leave this camp. It's a power I can exit. Maybe you haven't seen me using I can. I don't want you to be here. Go out of my camp. I don't want you on this keyboard. Go away. I don't like what you play. I mean that's how me how much more God you can just touch your breast before you see that it has become some a stone. Just you just slap 1 slide. Yeah, God is powerful. So, Charlie, me, I say the fear, the fear of death has brought some of us into the ministry. And the fear of death is still guiding us. We are afraid of dying. Fear. Are you not afraid of dying? Yeah. Fear. Are you not afraid of dying? We are afraid constantly, the fear of the Lord. We want to be in the will of God. Yeah, we want to be the will of God. We know. I mean, we have seen Juanita with us. She used to be like us. And she's. No, we don't even understand. Lauren is to look at his children. Just out of the system. Look at me. The accent that I had on the way to term. You ask yourself, I mean, Lord, why? Why? But we were just about to die. So my dear friends, God is very powerful to remove you from this earth. And you, you, you, you eat. How many of you ladies when you start exerting your powers on house helps they are not able to stay in a cry again, because you have the sense that return to your village, go to the village where you came from, go, go to that village, go to that village. Do you not use those powers? You think God can also return to your village from where you came? Why do you use power you think God will not use? Why do you use power you think God will not? God will not use that power on you when you've been using that power on this earth. Sacking people, bringing people. That's why almost everybody have sacked. I've brought them the person back because I'm afraid of my own personal. If you look at my history, you see that almost anybody that I've sacked before, I've always brought the person back at a point as a kind of Lord sealed. I didn't sack the person before. A certain scripture will be applied. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain that. Since you are not merciful, you shall not obtain mercy. Yeah. And look at on Sunday I went to Tema. I preached on a topic. It's not as Christian as a Bible word. It's just an English word. And the topic was the English word without, without the the sermon was in two parts. The first part was when you think of the word without, you think of what you can do without and the second part what you cannot do without. So the first part I told them what we can do without. I said the Kodesh can do without me and they are doing without me. The church can do without setting pastors, you may take you, we cannot do without you. There are setting Orangus and others. They have seen that since they went. The church has rather be moving on. Better and I preached, I said, because if you are a wife, you think we cannot do without you, we can do. Juanita is gone. We are about to have another wedding. You may think the world cannot go on without you, but it can go on without you. You may be a pros pros person donating to the check. You think we cannot do without you? We can't do without you. Then I thought I continued. I said we can't do without NPP. You see, when they were there, we thought we could not do without them, but we agree without them. And we can't do without NDC because we never thought we could do without NDC when they were here for 20 years. Many of you young people, you have never known anybody else apart from President Rawlings. You never knew that we could do without it. But Ghanaian powers shoot common man. The powers of the common man were able to remove them. We can do without. God can do without you. He doesn't want to do without you. Then I continued. I preach what you cannot do without. You cannot do without God without without me you can do nothing without the shedding of blood. There's no you cannot do without the blood of Jesus. Without faith, you cannot please him. Wow, it was powerful message without what you can do without and what you cannot do without. Tell your devil I can do without you. In case you don't know, I can do without you. Maybe you didn't know, but I want you to know, OK? OK. Those who have been sacked, those who have been sacked, you have been reinstated. Glad for them. Now, chapter 2 5 Facts about the call of God #1 Matthew #1 Many are called. Many are called, but few are chosen. Matthew 22 So the first fact about the call of God is that many are called, Amen. What does many mean? Number 17 Things that many means #1 Many means large numbers of people. Don't you think it to be the common man #2 Many are called means the masses are called The masses #3 many are called means huge numbers of people are called, so large numbers, the masses huge numbers #4 many are called means numerous people are called numerous, numerous people are called #5 many are called means countless. I'm just giving you the meaning of the word meaning. Countless #6 many are called means lots of people have been called. And finally #7 many are called means the majority of the people have been called and #8 many are called means Most of the people have been called. Amen. That's what it means. These are five. I'm telling you 5 facts that I want you to know about the call of God. And one is that many are called. Call is not for few, it's not for the nobility, it's for the commoner. Every person who's been called and God has used it. When you read his biography, you'll be surprised where he came from. He was a stammer. He had a problem, his family this and that, this and that. Because the call is for the commoner, very few noble people are called. It is in the Bible that you see or confess Corinthians 126 For you see your calling, how that not many mighty, not many noble. Not many noble are called after the flesh, not many. It's a very uncommon thing for a king or a Prince to be called. How many Princess have you seen that are called? I'm asking you, you think the King of England will be called? I want to give my life as a mission. The whole of the British Army will follow him to go and protect him at the call of God, the place that he says is called of God, Secret Service and all. They won't be there following him. So the call, I tell you, it's a common man's preserve. If you like many, many, many. Matthew 2422, fourteen in 2016 also. And many are called. Many are called. Many, many, many, many, many. So if you think only Bishop Saki, who are the people on the front, Bishop Saki and Bishop Eddie are called, and Pastor Johnny and Pastor Fabian are called, how can it be when the Bible says many are and the many are healed, the many are here and the few are in the front, and you are saying that they said the few are called and many are not called? No. Tell your neighbor Lycos, say Lycos. Charlie, it looks like we are called. It looks like we are called. Yeah. Sing, sing a song #2 sing, sing. My God, he loves me. He says I am this child. He calls me righteous, says I'm the apple of his eyes. So why do I love my hand and why do I stop my feet and why do I scream so loud? I am not qualified. I am no specialist. I am a warrior. No more chant told me more than the Conqueror. His spirit lifts me. Why do I clap my Why do I slap my feet and why do I speak so loud? No, I am not qualified. I am no specialist. I'm just addicted to the one who saved me. Take lie ghost. No matter what I'm saying I work for God. Go. I'm a God. What? I lie ghost every day. I have no skills and I'm no specialist. Lie ghost. No matter what I'm saying I work for God. Go. I'm a God. What I lie every day. I have no stills that I'm a special. I am so the one who saved me. I am free and I don't have to say I'm not at them forgiving. I am not. I am no special in understanding that you don't want to save me. I'm a lie God, no matter what I'm saying. I work for God. No, I'm a problem. Lie God, Lie God. Every day. I have no skills and I'm no special in. Lie God and I have no what you say. I have no skills. I have no skills and I'm not. I'm no specialist, I have no skills and I'm no specialists. No matter what I'm saying. I will work for God, though I am a commoner. Hey, write it. Write it down so that. Lycos. Lycos the layman. No matter what they say or. Them say. No matter what them say, I'll work for God though I'm a commoner. No matter what them say, I will work for God, though I am a commoner. Tell your neighbor Lycos it looks like we have to work and. Then Lycos every day. I have no skills and I know specialists. Is that what it says? Every day. I have no skills and I'm no specialist. All right, OK, sing it. Lie, cause no matter what I'm saying, I'll work for God. No, I'm a God. Lie 'cause every day I have no skills and I'm no specialist like us, no matter what I'm saying. Say I'll work for God though I'm a commoner like us. Every day I have no skills and I'm a specialist like us. No matter what I'm saying I'll work for God though I'm a God. Every day I have no skills and I'm a special like us. No matter what I'm saying. I'll work for God though I'm a commoner like. All right #2 many are called as #1 #2 is there is a call to fruitfulness, fruitfulness, fruitfulness. Amen. Keith Green, he said, this is to what Kid Green said. So I'm telling you 5 things about the call. Number one, many are called #2 there's a call to fruitfulness #3 Some people are called in a spectacular way #4 Some people are called in an ordinary way. And #5 the divine call comes through desires. OK, have you got all the five points? OK #1 Many are called #2 there's a call to fruitfulness #3 is what many are called in a spectacular way. And #4 some are called in an ordinary way. You can get a book, it's called many are called OK and #5 the divine call through desires comes through desires. Amen. Are you there? OK, good. So Kid Green says you don't need to hear a call, you are already called. And I called Kid Green. This is what Kid Green said you don't need to hear a call, you are already called. Amen. Are you there? Are you there now John 15, verse 16, it says, You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that you should go forth and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain, and that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you. Now many of us are called the question. There is a question in the Bible. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all evangelists? Are all? The answer is no. You all speak in town. The answer, the answer to that question is no. So that I agree, we are not all called to be apostle, but we are all called to be fruitful. All right. We are all called to be what? Fruit full. Full of fruits. Fruits full, full of fruits. Amen. So God has called us, and that calling is on your life, at least it's on many people's lives. So if you think you are not called to be an apostle, I agree with you, but I, I, I do not agree. If you say you are not called to be fruitful, you are called to be fruitful. Amen. And that is how comes up that you sense that pulling that calling because it's a call to fruitfulness. God wants you to be fruitful. Are you all right? All right, sorry. If you also have a muscle pull, you can go out now. There is no shame. You may scream, listen to me, everyone leave you and say I'm called to be fruitful. Amen. I'm not talking about any fantastic call to be an apostle to Indonesia or India or something like that. I'm talking about just being fruitful. I'm talking about not just being there. So I'm just there. My presence does nothing, acts nothing, subtracts nothing from the world and from the church. I'm talking about working for God, working in his house, talking about you rising up and you is not coming to sit in check to receive blessing everyday blessing everyday prophet you see something everyday prophet you see something in your life and speak a word and say something everyday are going for anointing everyday are going for prayers for somebody to pray for you. Everyday prophet has to come to your house to say something words and to see lying visions. Because when you first prophet to see vision, they will see lies and they will tell you lies. It is preaching that you can force us to preach, but you can't force a prophecy. Look, if you tell me preach, preach, I can preach because I'll use the Bible and I'll go through and I can force anything. At the point you see that, the anointing will begin to flow. But prophecy and visions, you can't force it. If it is there or it has come, it has come. If it doesn't come, it doesn't come. It's something that comes and goes. You get it. I mean, Kenneth Hagin tells about how people meet him shopping and asking, have you seen anything about me? Have you passed this as an idiot? One day I went to a church which was pasted by a prophet and I told the people, you are forcing your pastor to tell lies and to behave like a magician. And that prophet, I tell you, he's very, I was asking the associate pastor how he came there. And the way they tell you the kind of fantastic prophetic things that have have happened that made that person even join the church, it's amazing. But you see, that's the gift of God loop. It's not something you turn on. So I'm turning it on at 7 and I'll turn it off at 9:00. There's nothing like that. It's real, but it's not something you turn on and off. I hope you understand what I'm saying. So when you force it, in the end the person is under pressure to say things that God hasn't said. You see that it turns the gift into something else. Then you yourself lose respect for that prophet after some time. So don't force the prophets. Don't force yourself to be someone who is getting a revelation going for prayer. This. Pray for me. Christianity is not a good culture. Pray for me. Pray for prophesied come to my house, private prophets, private personal pastors who have to come and pray for you personally and whatever, it shows that you have something wrong with you. I tell you, I have never had a personal pastor who has to come to my house to prophecy to me and to pray for me in my house. Why? It's a certain kind of person who has those things. If when a person says that he said a prophet is coming to the houses, you see that he's a type of person. Ask your neighbor, are you that type? One day a certain sister, she came to see the pastor that she has a problem. And the person told me, not that somebody said the person told me, He said, I told, I told the. I think a lady or a man. He told the person that I cannot counsel You come to church for six weeks and sit in the in the service for six weeks. By all means your problem will be addressed in six weeks. If it is not solved, then come. Yeah, I can't sit with you for counseling. Come. It's not that somebody told, told, told me. The pastor told me one of the largest churches in in some country, He said I'll just sit with you for whatever sits in the church for six weeks. Yeah. Maybe you can't have a child. Pastor is coming to pray. Pray for, pray for before you realize he's himself impregnating you. It's true. It is something that happens before you realize The pastor to solve the problem you see is also helping you as much as he can. It's making a way where there's no way. So when you are you are that way. You see fruitfulness drives away all those things. It's true when you are fruitful, you rather be solving people's problems, not that you are the problem. Every day, personal counseling, personal visits, personal attention, continuous. The Bible talks about the work of the Antichrist. He said One of the things that the Antichrist will do is to wear out the Saints. And one of the things this kind of people do is that they make, they wear out the pasta. All his counseling words are finished. He has tried Jeremiah, he has tried Ezekiel. He has moved into the New Testament. He took something from Daniel, he's tried Ephesians, and he's used something from Revelations. Now he has gone to the Apocrypha to find something else to add. He used the Gospels. He finished with the Gospels. He has tried different methods of counselling. So decide that you are not going to be someone who wear out the Saints, who wear out the pastors. Rather give yourself to your calling and your calling is to be fruitful. As you are becoming more and more fruitful you will discover people have what the problem than your problem. WADA you think you have a problem, you think you have a problem. Let me take you through the church and you will see more WADA WADA WADA ones sickness is in the place. If you want to see sicknesses the best places come to Calibu. Anything that is in the textbook, you see one at Calibu. It's true cancer. That is only you read in a big a big book like this. With that, they're taking a picture because it's so rare. When you go to Colombo, you see them, you'll be afraid and that's why you see the problems that are in the world. One day I was reading about you see your you see your eyes. You see your eyes. See the eyes here there is something in your head. It's called the optic nerve. It's like your finger like this going. It comes to the eyes like that, like it's inside in the here, this place here you see the the Y this place. There's something that is called a pituitary plant. Do you understand in this the what is this D this place What is it called V junction. You are a commoner so vernacular version. OK, you see that the eye so that so that two eyes are being her like around there's the eye, the nerve goes to the brain. So you see. So one day I was reading my book and I saw so this is the pituitary gland herself. When it gets bigger, swollen tumor can get bigger than to be pressing here on this one that is going to this eye and this one that is going to this eye, then you, you will become blind. Yeah. So I read it. I thought it was a story. One day I went to Calibu. We were doing neuro Ward Browns and I went to the first floor neurosurgery and when I went upstairs here, here they were here they wear this one is blind. This one you see? Have you ever thought about that? That place you guess willing there are people you'll be going to. This one is blind. There's tumor, tumor, tumor, tumor, tumor, P33 tumor like that all blind, advanced blind vision disappearing. Do you think it's a story and you are dying over your what? Which place rushes that half on your thighs and what a boy very close with stretch marks. A hair is getting Gray. You come and see, but when you start working, you see things they said when you start going with that to the village, the guys who drive the trucks, the guys who drive the trucks, our how much are they paid? They will not be paid more than 100 CVS or so. When they went round for the, they themselves said that they are millionaires. They said that they are millionaires, not the senior staff, the juniors that they said that they are among the richest people in Ghana. That's what the as soon as you become fruitful, your problem becomes like this very churchy, churchy like this small one. That is why pastors look super like, super like. They look like they don't have product. Pastors have the some of the wildest me and the pastor, my problems that I'm solving, they were all pastoral problems. Pastors have wow problem even from last night till this morning. The problems that I've had are more than I can even keep in my head. I don't even know how to keep them in my head since last night I just made one phone call that I had a problem there another problem. Then I came on my head another problem by the morning more complex. Only pastors we are we we have more problem when we start preach. OK, Jeremiah, Ezekiel is it. We got your fruitfulness because your problem really has to challenge all the local wait, I'm going to preach and come. Sit down and be patient after the service, you can revive after the service. I'm going to bear fruit and come. Tell somebody like us, I'm going to bear fruit and come. So all your problems should just wait. I said our crusade guys, not that the senior people, the pastors or those who have cars and other facility, the guys who tried to said that they are millionaires, they have seen that they are among the richest people in the in the world in Ghana by going on the crusade. It's true, Prince, is it not true? Tell that the people they don't think, is it true? It's not true. When you see people sleeping in the dust and stretching their hand for something and you see, look at you, you cannot even find your things. You have so many things you can't find. When you start to say, where is that? Where is that? This one, It's there, but you can't see because more things have come to act. Shoes you cannot wear things you cannot you have, you have clothes for each of your sizes. When you are size 12, you have the 11416 size 10, all of them more. Oh, OK. For when you lose weight, you use this one. When you put on weight, you use this one. So God is calling us to be fruitful. How many have decided to be fruitful? Tell her never, Charlie, like us, we got to be fruitful. Amen. Those of you who are tired, we are not closing now. If you know you are tired, you find your way. You find your way #3 Some people are called in a spectacular way. Paul was called in a spectacular way. As he journeyed, he came near Damascus, and suddenly that shined round about him. I light from heaven. And he fell to the earth, and had a voice say unto him, So sob, Why persecutors thou me? And he said, Who are thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus, Amen. Whom thou persecute us, it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks, Amen. Now brothers and sisters, brothers and sisters, some people are called in a spectacular way, but we are all different. We are all born in a different way, isn't it? Do you know how you were born? Some of you were born in a spectacular way. You fell out in the house. Some of you fell out in the house. Some of you were the first born. You caused a lot of problems before you were born. Some of you you came out breech from the you came with your bottom. Some came with your head. Some of you your bed killed your mother. You came into the well by killing your mother. But by the time you were born, your mother was dead. It's true all kinds of ways. Everybody has a way that he comes and somehow it's a spectacular like when we when we when we were in collabo, we have to deliver babies. I have to deliver 21 of our babies or what 2123 babies and so on. Those are the normal you have the 23 normal, but you to deliver twins is a special best. So one time I was going, I was going upstairs and I heard there was a twins coming. I rushed to to see that twins if I could deliver the twins and then bridge with the bottom. You have to move one leg cap this way, another one this way. We have different. We have what we call the evil presentation vertex. This face, some of the babies, instead of coming with here, they come with the face. This is coming because the head, the neck is like this, you see. So instead of your, your head would have been narrow from here like this, but now it's like this. So from here to here, it's coming straight with the face. When you see the vagina, you see the face. You'll be afraid. Which one is the evil present? Is it Brow? Brow. That's another one we call Brow. The one that's one. They come with the face. We've got face presentation. Then Brow. This place is coming with the the brow is the West. We call it the evil presentation. It is the evil presentation. One of our lectures, we call him that name Brow. When you see him, the evil presentation is coming. So all these are different ways by which somebody comes into the world. Some it is normal, simple, you're calling. But some is spectacular. Some of you came with, you are laughing, you came with your face like this. Some of you came and your mother died. You, your mother is not your mother. The mother you know as your mother is not your mother you don't know. If you like, go and do blood test. Your arrival was wrought with all kinds of spectacular thing. There was drama, some of your mother almost died, blood transfusions, there's that different things and you can't even some of you, your brain was affected. That's why we are not good at maths. Because it took a long time for you to come. So by the time your brain cells were affected, oxygen levels were low. So since that time, you see, when you do the 2224 times, you can only do history, history and then such subject geography that you match there. Charlie. Oh, yeah, it is from the way you were caught. Are you listening to me? So Apostle Paul, he was caught in a dramatic way. He entered the ministry in a dramatic way. That's what I'm trying to explain. Everybody comes in. Your day of Arab is different. 21 of them may be normal, but then you have occasional and usual way of being called, and most of us are not called in that dramatic, spectacular way. Most of us were not born. Most of us came with this place, the Pettis. We just came coolly. You just came. You press through, press through, press through, press through. When you came out, you open up your head. You came out. When you came out, you're here. But some of you, when you came out, you didn't cry. You you didn't cry. You were just cool. Your melancholysin came from bed, from bed. They beat you out for 5 minutes before you spoke. You started crying. Some of you originally you were choleric, then you became phlegmatic at birth. First Kings chapter 19 verse 11 it says and he said go forth and stand up on the mount. Some people are called in an ordinary I'm on point #4 there are only 5 points. Go further and stand upon the mount before the Lord, and behold the Lord pass by. Great and strong wind ran the mountains and breaking pieces and rocks before them. But the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind and earthquake. But the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake and fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire a still small voice. And that is where the call of God was. Amen. Most people are called in the stale, small voice. Most of us are called Bishop Saki. Please, have you had any Jesus? Please raise your hand if Jesus hasn't come to you as at now Bishop Eddie, please can you? Has he come? How did you hear the call of God? You don't even know. What about you? Have you seen Jesus? Have you seen Jesus before? Look at all of the front row specialists. So even the specialist soon they are a kind of Lycos that has trans transformed your Lycos ministry. They are commoners. Yes, come on place. Everybody is ordinary. Everybody is ordinary if only you just have faith. When we are telling you that many are called, believe what we are saying, hold your Bible and do something. You get it. Hold the Bible and do something. You see that somebody's problem is far smaller than yours. You see that you are superior. Charlie, What My crusade guys went, they came and said they are millionaires. They said, you see, you never know. You never know. So you see more. But #5 S most of you, you came normal delivery, normal delivery, and the next one is desires. Many have called through desires. This is a true saying. Amen. First Timothy chapter 3, verse one. If a man desire, if a man desire, if a man desire, If a man desire. If a man desire. If a man desire, it is if a man has a vision. If a man has a vision, If a man desire, the work, the office of a Bishop, all overseer. If a man desire, if a man desire, is there any man who desires? Yes. Is there anybody here who desires? Please can I see your right hand and ask him whether he has had a vision of Jesus before? Is that what is in the Bible? No. First Timothy 3 verse one. What does it say If a man desire? He desires a good work, Amen. Isn't that fantastic? So fantastic. Amen. Wow, it's a blessing now, chapter 3, how different people were called to the ministry. Amen #1 the divine call of Paul through quiet convictions. First Corinthians Chapter 9, verse 16. He says, For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory off, for necessity is laid upon me. Amen. Yeah, woe is me, Amen. Are you there? Huh. Quiet convictions. What did Paul say? I, I, I it's necessary for me to preach the gospel. Necessity is laid upon me. I have to do it. How many sometimes feel you just have to do it? You feel that you just have to do it? Yes, you know that's how Paul was called through the quiet conviction #2 the divine call of Abraham through the word of the Lord. But I was says now the Lord had said unto Abraham, Genesis chapter 12, verse one. The Lord had said unto Abraham, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred the word of the Lord came to him #3 the divine call of Jacob through a dream. Amen. Jacob had a dream in Genesis chapter 28, verse 10. All right, you see here the Bible says and Jacob went out from Bathsheba. Have you found that verse? We are not even bothering to find Genesis 28 verse 10 to 16. Don't worry. Don't worry if you can't find it, I'll just read it out to you. You can get the book. It's called Many a Call. Just go to the bookshop and ask. I want them looking for a book called Many a Call. Jacob went out from Bathsheba and went toward Haran, and he lighted upon a setting place, and tarry there all night, because the sun was set. And he took off the stones of that place and put them for his pillows, and lay down to sleep. And he dreamed a dream. And behold, a ladder set up on the earth, and the top reached to heaven. And behold, the Lord stood up, and called, and said, I am the Lord God of Abraham and of Isaac. The land wherein thou lowest I will give to thee to thy seed. Thy sea shall be as the dust of thee, and thou shalt spread to the West, E North and South, and in thee thy sea shall all the families be blessed. And behold, I am with thee, and I will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and I will bring thee again into this land. I will not leave thee until I have done that which I have spoken of to thee. And Jacob, I waked out of his sleep And he said, Surely the Lord is in this place and I knew it not, Amen. God called Jacob through a dream and told him all the things he was going to do with him. He said to him, I'm going to do this for you, I'll do this for you. I'll do this, I'll do this, I'll do. It was a dream. Sometimes you have a dream and that dream is the call. How many have ever had a dream and you knew God was calling you? Have you ever had a dream and you knew God was calling? Yes. So what is the call for is the call is to be fruitful, Amen. And as you become fruitful, you may even see whether the call is even more than that. When I began to obey the call of God, it was just a call to fruitfulness. It was not a call to be a. Now you can you. Some people even call me apostle. Some people say that I'm an apostle. Yeah. Can you believe that? Some people actually say that I'm an apostle. Yeah. Some people call me an evangelist. I don't know where they get all these ideas from, but everybody's coming up with his own theories of what I'm called to be. But you see, you. You, you, you, you. You can actually see the calling from what the person does with time. So you need to respond to the call to be fruitful. After some time, you see, this is the person's calling. Do you get it? This is the call of the person. So give yourself to be fruitful. As you keep shifting from place to place, you'll find gradually what your calling is supposed to do. Amen.
