05-People Who Gave Themselves Wholly To God (Joshua, Caleb, King Asa, Paul and Jesus)

Welcome to track #5 of Give thyself holy. Hallelujah, right? Give thyself holy. The next group of people who gave themselves holy was the next person to give himself holy is Joshua, Joshua, Joshua chapter 14. Joshua chapter 14 verse one. Now these are the areas the Israelites received as an inheritance in the land of Canaan, which Eliza the priest Joshua the son of Nan, the heads of the tribal clans allotted to them. Their inheritances were assigned by lot to the 9 1/2 tribes as the Lord commanded Moses. Moses had granted 2 1/2 tribes their inheritance east of Jordan, but had not granted the Levites an inheritance. Alright, the 6th. Now the men of Judah approached Joshua at Gilgal and Caleb's son of Gefoneh the Cairnisite, and said to him, You know what the Lord said to Moses, the man of God at Kadeshbanea, about you and me. I was 40 years old when Moses, the servant of the Lord, sent me from Kadeshbanea to explore the land. Then I sent him back a report according to my convictions. Yeah. But my brothers who went up with me made the hearts of the people melt with fear. I, however, followed the Lord my God wholeheartedly, all the NESB says. But I followed the Lord my God fully. I followed the Lord my God fully and the King James Bible says, But I wholly followed the Lord my God, and Moses swore to me. The land on which you have walked will be your inheritance and that of your children forever, Amen. Because because of what? You have followed the Lord wholeheartedly, Amen. So once again you see somebody, not somebody following the Lord God fully, you see, because the children of Israel went out into the promised land, but they were all, if you met them on the way to our spies, when you ask them who are you? So we are Moses spies. I mean, are you in Moses church? Yes. Are you part of the ministry? Yes. Are you in the advanced team? We are the we are the advanced team. We are the we are the, we are the guys who are organizing the whole crusade. Do you understand? Yeah, but amongst the 12, only two of them followed were following the law with all their hearts. So as we are here. Again, it brings up the topic of Griffeis Ike. You know you have people that are here but they are not following the Lord with all their hearts. Amen. OK, so you need to follow the Lord with all your heart. No one can see that you are following the Lord your God with all your heart. Only God can see. And you better make sure that you are following the Lord your God with all your heart. Otherwise, it's going to be a funny end. You find out that that he was given a reward. Are you there? He was given a reward for for doing what? For following the Lord God fully. Amen. And what was the reward? He was given the inheritance. He was given the land. OK, so I think that God is telling us here. Let us be like Joshua who followed fully. Amen. You know I want you to. Go all the way. I want to advise you to go all the way. You see, going all the way does not mean collecting a salary from the church. Collecting a salary from the church is not going all the way. In fact, recently one of the people who came into full time ministry, when she was being honest at a point she said, look, the truth is that when I came, I, I, it wasn't. I didn't come to work in the church because I felt that I have to give. My life fully to the Lord, she said. I wanted security. I thought it was a good job. Yeah, recently she confessed it. She said that that now that she has come and now she's now saying that she has learned. This and that, and that's also something that we also notice that that. People are looking for financial security or security. You feel that oh, if I work here, maybe it will be well with me when I look at this person. So this is how my future will be. I think I'll be like this person. So let me come and work in the House of the Lord. You know, but that is a mistake. That is a mistake. And that is why in full time ministry, number one, we don't have any high salaries for anybody and we don't have any security for anybody because we are not advertising job security. President Muhammad has that job. I don't have the job to I don't have that job to create jobs for people, jobs for the people or cash for the people. I'm not a politician. We have nothing like that to offer. Do you understand what you must have right? It's like you are giving yourself. Look, I cannot tell the difference between now that I'm in full time ministry and when I was a medical student. I can't tell the difference. I have always been. All out, all out and and that is why when. We, when we even started in full time ministry, we didn't even know how to take offerings because we were not used to taking. We were not doing this thing for money. I am a medical doctor. Michel Saki is a lawyer. Michel Eddie was a counter of whatever he was. I don't know what exactly he was an economist. OK, An economist? Yeah. By now he would have probably been the, yeah, chief executive of VRA. Yeah, we used to go and stay in his mansion, air conditioned mansion with hot, running hot and cold water and air conditioned rooms. Yeah, years ago. Not now. Years ago, 20-30 years ago, he used to host us in his porch executive mansion. Yeah. So I used to go there for, I mean rest and prayers. And. Do you understand what I'm saying? So we are not. Trying to do this to get a job. No no no no. I. Cannot tell the difference between what I'm doing now and what I was doing when I was a medical student. I can't tell the difference. Maybe you can, but I can't. I can't. It's not about collect. Get manifold. Get manifold when you work as a layperson and you are serving the Lord wholeheartedly. Nobody would tell you do this or be dragging you. Some of you are elders. We have to drag you. We have to pull you, you know, but it's always the case. Some of you have followed the title that when you saw that there was work in, it was only as someone there's there's some hard work involved and I don't like hard work. Now. God has decided to reward Joshua. He said that the land which you are standing on is for you. What a shock. I wasn't. Following the land and now the land has been given to me. That is why I cannot say the land that God has given to me. Because when I say the land that God has given to me, somebody who misunderstands and said I was looking for land, that's why I went to that place. Yeah. But Joshua was not looking for land. He was saving the law with all his heart. And then fun magic, the land that you thought you were fighting for me, it is yours and your family. Yeah. You think you are? Doing it for the Lord before you realize it has been given to you. Yeah. So, Christian brothers and sisters, I want to encourage you. Be. The two spies amongst the 12 spies who are following the Lord, there are people here, they are not elders. But in future some of you will do even better than the so-called elders. It's true because you are going to rise up and some of you are going to get stronger. You know, we have something we call late bloomers. They sort of just keep rising. Up and then there are people who are very prim and proper from day one I will study this you don't have you don't joke with everything fasting this this this this actually, but as we go you'll see that the. Harlots. And the pornographers will be coming from the back at full speed and you, you will see that one harlot on the left, one pornographer on the right, and the Bible study man is in the middle is that they are all passing. Jesus says that the harlot and the publicans are entering the Kingdom of God faster. So those of you who are free and proper, you know everything and you are perfect, OK, You've been doing good things for a long time. You get what I'm trying to say. Watch out, the harlots are coming. Some of them are going to put down their tools very soon. Yeah, they are going to put down their tools and they are going to go all out for the Lord. Is it fantastic? Actually, I want to encourage you to go. All out for the Lord. You know something that I've been meeting, I've been meeting politicians who were the leaders of Christian fellowships. You see when you talk. To people, you can either go into politics or church and I've been meeting a lot of them and they were saying, oh, I. Was there this one? Because of politics, I was the leader of this. I used to do this back because of politics I've gone into. A lot of these politicians. The prayer, I don't want to mention some names. I saw one of them on television yesterday. He was a he. He was a deputy prayer leader for the whole Christian fellowship on campus. Yeah, I know 2. And I know one who was the prayer secretary for the whole Christian fellowship on campus. When you see them today, you won't believe it. And both of them are politicians. You see them both on TV, And then I met a third one, same story. Then I met a forefront on an aeroplane the other day. He even used to attend our church at a point when it was starting one of our branches. Yeah. All these people, you don't find them in church today. Yeah. So if you're following the Lord, following otherwise, you see that there were 12 spies. But tell me the name of the other spies. Stand up. Give me the names of the Give me a mic. Yeah, Joshua, Caleb, get you the rest. I want the rest. Joshua, Caleb and then the others. Give me the rest. Pardon. I do not know their names. You don't know their names. You don't know NATO. You have a Bible. That is how your name will be forgotten. When you don't follow the the Lord wholeheartedly, your name will be forgotten. You will be. Your memory will be wiped out. You will be like you never existed before. Yeah, sure. Nobody knows their names. We just know there were 12 spies. But we know Joshua, we know Caleb. The rest, you will be blacked out because the thing that you are doing, it's not a whole hearted thing. True, you are there, but you are not whatever. That's why you cannot tell me their names. You'll be wiped out. I'm telling you, Chale de Hatter is a very deep thing. You know we have about three types of stomach. You know that. AJ shaped stomach and then a fish hooked stomach and then there's a tear type. You know the fish whose stomach is like this? You see from here it goes down and then comes up like this. You see and. Such people, they eat and eat you can't see. Where their food goes, it's the fish food stomach, you understand That is how their heart is very deep. There are so many things inside you can't tell. So when you see somebody on the outside, you can never tell what kind of person he is. I want to. Encourage you to be like Joshua and to be like Caleb so that one day when they ask for their name, who are the elders? Who are the elders or who are the stars, say, yeah, remember. And then you see that how many stars did we have at the point? How many stars stand up? How many stars did we have? The beginning stars 14 is going to be just like this. One day somebody will be asking, OK, who Do you remember what the stars is? Oh yeah, this and this and this. I don't remember the rest. I don't remember their names. There are some others. Watch out, watch out. Some of these things are prophecies. When I say they have prophecies, I'm not predicting that you are going to be falling out. But what I have noticed is that when I start using illustrations and terms, I don't like them. I don't know what to do anymore because I've noticed a lot of them happen. Every prophet prophesized. Differently, so watch out. Don't, don't, don't beat some music. I can't remember. There was a guy. How many guys were there? We were in school those days, those days. A couple of days ago, I met I met somebody. He was the choirmaster when my was a choirmaster when my wife was on campus. She told him. You were my choirmaster, she said. Oh, because of politics. Look what has become of me, I said. But you were my choirmaster, he said it, she told him. You were my firemaster, you were my choirmaster. I used to go for car and you were the choirmaster in my church on campus. Let go on campus. You can't find them in the church. So Charlie, follow the Lord wholeheartedly, and don't be surprised if you follow the Lord. And don't. No, look, look, sit down. Nobody here should be jealous of anyone who is giving land after he's followed the Lord wholehearted. Do not be jealous. This is all I'm asking of you. Do not be jealous, Yeah, do not be jealous when you see that somebody has been giving down a whole land as he has followed the law. But I thought he was a pastor. You know something that's when we travel, we may sometimes sit in a business class and we meet some people there and you can see that they are thinking that why should a pastor be here? Your mum, You should be there. I should not be there. Your mum. Like tomato. You should be there. I should not be there. Why should you be there? What? What do you do? What do you mean? The next person? I've talked about Josiah. I've talked about Joshua. I'm talking about Caleb. Caleb. Numbers, Chapter 14. That's one. That night all the people of the communities raised their voices and wept aloud. All the Israelites gambled against Moses and Aaron and the whole assembly, and said to them, if only we had died in Egypt or in this desert. You see, they had come into full time ministry. They had left Egypt and they had come into full time ministry and they were complaining. That is why we don't offer and advertise jobs and money. But when you come, you start. If only we have stayed in Egypt. If only I had done my medicine. If only I had done my my masters. If only I had done my nursing. If only I had done my philosophy. If only I had done my classics. If I only have stayed in Tigo, if I have stayed in MTN, that's why. That's why. You don't. You don't see me telling people come in here. You know I work for them. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You will be. There, you say in Egypt, I was saying because I had one of the first people I employed full time. That's what he told me. He used to work at one of these multinational companies in Ghana. I will not mention that anybody is a multinational company and one day in the heat of his anger, he said. If. I was packing up this place, I would have been earning 5 million CDs, old million CDs by now. How much is 5 million? 500 Ghana, yeah. Are you sure? 55 million, but it was it was a lot in those days, yeah, 5 million, hey. So when he said that, we said, hey, we can, we haven't. Thought about what we would have been earning. It has not occurred to us what I would also have been earning. Are you with me? It was not about Ketras. What would I be earning Mitu? Where would I have been? What would I have had? If we start talking like that, if, when this guy started, we would have been eating cucumbers. Moses took class like me. I would have been a pharaoh. I would have been this. Everybody would say I would be something. I would have been that. I would have been that I would have been that. I would have been a pharaoh by now. You know, that was, I was #2 in line. I'd have been a pharaoh and I think the president of the whole world. I'm following you people in the desert. It's because of God. I'm here. Nonsense. It's because of you. People, I'm here, I've been a pharaoh by now than the head of state of United States of Egypt with a lot of ministers and and Chariots and I've had you know how many Chariots I've had by now. Are you talking they were talking about cucumber? And and and and and and and garlic and lemons and other. What are you talking about? So everybody can start saying what I would have got if I was somewhere. Yeah. And that's what we don't need. So we are begging you don't come and come into the photo ministry and then start calling back this. I would have had this. That's why we don't ask people to come unless when you come, you start to mention so many things, we will become afraid. But we are also not also saying what we would have had. Yeah. You know why I would have been. Hey, Bishop Eddie would have been the chief executive of VRA and Bishop Saki would have. Been Maybe he would have been the lawyer for Muhammad during the Supreme Court. Or he would have been a Supreme Court judge, Bishopsaki's classmate and discussion. Mate is the head of the Ghana Law School, the head of the Ghana Law School there, what do they call him? Not the the president or what the head of the Ghana Law School, I mean the overall whatever the discussion mate. Yes, they are mates and friends as Supreme Court. I don't know if they are Supreme Court judges, they are judges and all sorts of things depending on the line that you want to choose. We can. All yes, his classmate attorney was Attorney general. His classmate is head of majority in government, they are friends. Majority in Parliament, minority attorney general, everything. Classmates. Yes, discussing mates and friends. Yes, from both sides. Yeah. So everybody wants to start off. Where would I have been? Where would I have cucumber? We would have kitchen. Shut up there. So stay at where you are going to stay. Stay back. Come and worry us. Apply and say please. He wants to wait for the law. He wants to be in a full time ministry. We don't need you. Nobody needs you. If you are going to come, we start talking this and that. Go at where you will be. I understand that later you'll be stuck and say. Yes, I was working at Columbia. I'd be a principal director. Of public health? Whatever. Hey, you would have been dead in your grave. If only we had died in Egypt. Nonsense. Why is the Lord bringing us into this land only to let us fall by the sword? Our wives and children will be taken as plunder. Would it be better for us to go back to Egypt? This is the danger of democracy. Everybody has something to say and they said to each other we should choose a leader and go back to Egypt. The Moses and Eros fell face down in front of the whole Israelite assembly gathered there. Joshua the son of Nan and Caleb son of Gefune, who were among those who had explored the Lord, draw their clothes. Joshua and Caleb remember. So the whole hearted ones are when you are serving the Lord wholeheartedly, right? You don't mind being the minority. The majority was there, but Joshua and Caleb, two out of the crowd, thousands of people, out of the 12 spies and out of everybody they fell down. They said no, they were not pastors, they were nothing. They said, no way, what are you doing? And they said to the entire assembly, God was listening to the land we pass through and explode is exceedingly good. If the Lord is pleased with us, he will lead us into the land, a land flowing with milk and honey. He will give it to us Only do not rebel. This is what rebellion means. Rebellion means talking in a way. It means inciting people. It means tearing up negativity, negativity, negative feelings, and negative. Moods. In the people and in committees and in groups. That's what it means to be rebellious, to be contradictory and contrary all the time. You are contrary, opposed and against things that are moving forward in the Church. Fraud. Willfully contrary. Habitually opposed only do not with that. And do not be afraid of the people. Of the land we will swallow them up. Mind you he was talking about the giants who their protection is gone, but the Lord is with us. Do not be afraid of them. Wow God was listening. God is listening today. You know when we talk privately and you say negatively God hears it all. Remember the woman of Saru, Phoenician woman when she said oh. Jesus said I can't give you my healing ministry because I can't minister bread for the children to the dogs. She said, oh, I'm a dog, you know, just I like it. I like it. That's a dog. Jesus said from this thing, this thing that you said, come on, what you said, what you just said. So you should watch out when you talk. You know, a little. Comments Statement before you realize your ministry is over. It's like I'm tired of this. What is this this? And that this before I realized they they would take a decision upstairs, just transfer this guy and just. But so after they spoke the speech or listened to the speech only, do not be afraid of them, but the whole assembly talked. About tuning them, then the glory of they were going to stone them. After a guy's speech by Joshua and Caleb, the response was let's stone them. But the whole assembly talked about stoning them and the glory of the Lord appeared in the tent and the Lord said to Moses, how long? How long will these people treat me with contempt? Hey, Lord, when did he see you to treat you with contempt? When did he see you to treat you with contempt? You didn't see the Lord, but what you were saying, the Lord has heard it, because if I. Was the one who has sent you out of Egypt. And I had such a discussion going on. I'll take it personally because the idea came from me to bring you out of Egypt. Do you understand? The idea came from me to bring you out of Egypt. So all those. Beastly talking you were doing there. It's against me and the Lord said how long? Will these people treat me with contempt? How long is it going to go on? How long will they refuse to believe in me in spite of all the miraculous signs I've performed among them? I will strike them down with the plague and destroy them, and I will make you into a greater nation and stronger than they. And Moses said to the Lord. Then the Egyptians will hear about it. You know, that's why before you become a leader, you have to have the love of God in you. You don't have to be a judgmental person to be a man of power. When you are a man of authority and power, you must not be judgment or like quick to pass a judgment. You have to be. Slow. That's why sometimes justice takes a long time and then they go to court and they delay, delay, delay so that, you know, you can even decide what to do. By your power you brought these people out. The Egyptians were here. By your power you brought these people among the people, and they would tell the inhabitants. Of the land they have already heard that you, O Lord, are with these people, and that you, O Lord, have seen them face to face, have been seen face to face, that your cloud stays over them, and that you go before them in a pillar of fire and a pillar of cloud by day and night. If you put these people to death all at one time, the nations who have heard it a report about you will say the Lord was not able to bring the people into the land promised them, so he slaughtered them in the desert. Now may the Lords strength be displayed, just as you have declared. The Lord is slow to anger, abounding in love and forgiving sin and rebellion. Yes, He does not leave the guilty unpunished, but He punishes the children for the sins of the fathers. To the third and 4th generation, he was suggesting another punishment like some sickness or something to just give them familiar disease. Do you understand some familiar disease or something To the third and 4th generation? Forgive. Are you understanding how diseases come? Yeah, to the third and 4th generation and family disease. Wow. In accordance with your great love, forgive the sin of these people, just as you have pardoned them from the time they left Egypt. Verse 20, the Lord replied, I have forgiven them as you asked. Wow. Nevertheless, as surely as I live, and as surely as the glory of the Lord fills this whole earth. Not even 1. Of the men who saw My glory and the miraculous science performed in Egypt and in the desert, but who disobeyed me and tested me 10 times, not one of them will ever see the land I promise on oath to their forefathers. No one who has treated me with contempt will ever see it. But because my servant Caleb has a different spirit and follows me wholeheartedly, he gives himself wholly to me. I will bring him into the land he went to, and his descendants will inherit it. Wow, are you listening? Amen. So there again. You see, when you follow the Lord wholeheartedly, you are cheerful, you are positive, you believe it is possible, and you want to do it. Isn't it? But when you're not following the Lord wholeheartedly, you always find a reason why the Bible says the slaggard says there is a lion in the street. Like let's say I want to send Winnie out there to go and get something. She said there's a lion outside, There's a lion in manpower. How can I be a lion in I've seen one, you know, So she has an excuse because she doesn't want to go. So the excuses are given because of the the the reluctance to go. Amen. Are you listening alright? Why are you finding yourself? You are feeling hot. Wow. But when you find yourself, you feel hotter 'cause you are, it starts to generate heat. So if you, if you rather cool down, you start feeling cooler. Are you listening? Amen. So give yourself holy to the Lord, Amen. Give yourself like Caleb, be positive, believe in the mission. God is looking for people to send to countries and to cities in Liberia. I need somebody to send to Banga. I need somebody to send to Ghanta City. I need somebody to send to Zheju. I need somebody to send to Robert Sports. I need somebody to send to where Buchanan. I'm looking for five people. I need some people to send to Guinea and to Calcutta. I want to send somebody to Calcutta. I want to send somebody to Guinea to Inzeri. Core. I want to send somebody to Mamu. I want to send somebody to Gekkedu. I want to send somebody to Kenya. I think I've sent somebody to already. I want to send somebody to my center. I need. People who is going to go? Who is going to go an? Old person only. A young person can do this work. Yeah. When you are a little older than you are, you can never do the work of God. I'll give you 3 years after school. Your whole life will. Change if like write it down three years, three years after school. See that almost all the things we are preaching about are not applicable to you. That is why I don't want. Workers to be here. And I think they are workers here. I'm seeing people who are workers. You should not be here. I don't want workers here because when I preach like what I'm preaching in their workers here, it becomes as if I'm, I'm, I'm like, like a super zealous person who is like very frenzied. I'm very, I mean, emotional or I, I don't know what. Yeah. Not even extremist. It's like. I'm not, I'm not balanced in my my thinking, yes. Idealistic. And I'm more balanced in my thinking. I don't like that at all. Yeah, I'm talking to people who can do. If I go to have a camp at that, I will not speak what I'm preaching there. No, I will not say what I'm saying. I will not say there. I will say a different thing. But there are a lot of things in the Bible you can say. You don't have to say Everything Everywhere. Yes. So I'm encouraging you to follow the law wholeheartedly, volunteer yourself. We went to Pour d'ivoire and when we came back, the guys Unaka. Brothers, all of them, said they would like to go to the towns that we went to. Want to go there? Yeah, you can go. They should go. They want to go to what town did we go to? The Allua one said he wants to go to Ganua Vivo. They all chose the town, said we like, we like to go to those places and stay there. Yeah, I will be sending missionaries always. It's not about collecting a salary. It's about giving yourself to God that God used. Me. And I'm going to come to about. 20 Things you have to give yourself to to To say that you are giving yourself holy To say that you are giving yourself holy. There are so many things you have to give yourself. To. Because he said give thyself holy to these things. Give yourself holy to these things. Yeah. So there are things you have to keep yourself holy to. Are you listening to me? Yeah. But I want to show, you know, anybody who follows the Lord wholeheartedly, he's blessed. Even Josiah, he died early, but it was a deliverance. God said I will bring the punishment back. Not in your day. Sometimes when? Good people. Die early. It is a deliverance from for them. I said I will not let it come in your time, but it is coming. So die so that you don't see that thing. Joshua was given land for his attitude. Yeah, Caleb, they were sentencing everybody to death. They left him out. They said he has a different spirit. Yeah, because he there, Charlie, he was all out. All that I said there, Charlie, he said it was possible, giants and all. They said the Lord has removed their protection. We can kill the giants. And he never died. When they, when they fought in the promised land, he never died. Death is supernatural. Death is a very spiritual event. Any time somebody dies in the Bible, you will notice that it is followed by an instruction. When somebody died, when Moses died, God told Joshua, Moses, my servant said arise and go. When Herod died, they told him Herod is dead, come from Egypt. Herod is this do this like that. It's. Always spiritual. Bible says the death of a St. is precious in the eyes of the Lord. It's a spiritual thing. So death is very spiritual. Do you understand? None of the giants could kill killer. When he eventually went into the promised lab, he fought them, fought them, fought, never died. So he was an old man and he's thrown as ever before. And he came to stand on the land and said this. And Joshua, too, never died from the fighting, and he was alive and he came. And then when he finished, he saw that the people still wanted to backslide, so he told them. As for me? And my house we will serve the Lord. You can do whatever you want to. Do but for. Me and my house, we will serve the Lord. These are. Whole hearted servants of the Lord, following the Lord holy. Never think about a Grupo. Don't think about these groups. Oh, we are the stars. We are this group. We are going to, we are going to do. They are going to do. They are going to this place. We are going to do something. Look, don't think about who we are. It's you. When I was a medical I tried to mention the names of my friends who were medicals who we were all doing church with. None of them are doing church today. I can mention any 1234 they just come to because they were my discussion mates and my best. Friends. Or except maybe Doctor Nosh, he's in the church with me. Yeah, yeah, all of them. They are known. You don't wanna hear. Hear, He finished. And I, I interviewed the one of the guys. He stood with me. He said God has called me to be a teacher. He told me God has called me to be a teacher. Yeah, different things. Now you can't find them anywhere. So follow the Lord wholeheartedly. Amen. Caleb. Wow, I love Caleb. It's a powerful name. Amen. Another beautiful, important scripture on Caleb is Deuteronomy 1, Deuteronomy chapter 1 and verse 30, Deuteronomy chapter 1, Deuteronomy chapter 1. Wow. Deuteronomy verse 19, chapter 1, verse 19. Then, as the Lord our God commanded us, Amen. We stepped out for Muharram and went towards the hell. OK. And went toward the Hill Country of the Amorites, through all that vast and dreadful deserts that you have seen. And so we reached Kadesh Vanya. Then I said to you, you have reached the Hill Country of the Amorites, which the Lord has given us. See, the Lord your God has given you the land. Go up and possess it. Do not be afraid. Then all of you came to me. I said let us send men to spy out the land and bring a report. The idea seemed good to me. So I selected 12 of you, one from each tribe. And they went, and they came and. Explored and they said it's a good land. Verse 26 But you were unwilling to go up and rebelled against the commandment of the Lord your God. You grumbled in your tents. Ah, you see, God can hear you grumbling when you are, when you are following the Lord wholeheartedly. You don't gramble in your tents. Those of you who speak, how many have heard people complaining in their rooms before? Since you were. Born, yes, watch out. You see, I am noticing some that God seems to be hearing our discussions. He listens. Italy, huh? He's recording it in the 10th. The magic of yesterday is the science of today. What was magical yesterday is what is science. Today you can record so many things and playback my voice. The magic of yesterday, the science of today, you grumbled against the Lord in your tents. OK, you said the Lord hates us. Anybody. Who says God hates you is not true. So he has. Brought us to Egypt to deliver us into the hands of the Amorians to destroy us. Where can we go? And you see this is not the first. Moses is rehearsing this thing because it is the cause of all their downward spiral in their lives. Our brothers have made us lose heart. They say the people are stronger and taller than we. The cities are large with walls up to the sky. We even saw the Anakites there, the giants which are from the Nephilims. Then I said to you, do not be terrified, do not be afraid. The Lord of God, who is going before He will fight before you as He did in the desert. Then you saw how the Lord carry you as a father carries His Son. In spite of this, verse 32, you did not trust in the Lord your God, who went ahead of you in fire by night and cloud by day. Verse 34 When the Lord heard what you said, he was angry and solemnly. Swore. Not a man of this evil generation shall see the good land I swore to give your forefathers. Except Caleb, the son of Jephune. He will see it, and I will give him and his descendants the land he set foot on because he followed the Lord wholeheartedly and because of you, the Lord became. Angry with me also and said you shall not enter it, but your assistant Joshua the son of man will enter it. Encourage him because he will leave Israel to enter it. And the little ones that you said would be taking captives your children who do not yet know good from. Evil. They will enter the land and I will give it to them and they will take possession of it. The punishment was directly related to all that they said. You see in their complaints they said our children will die. God took no right. He told Angel, Angel, right. Children, children will die, he said. God hates us, writes. It and then they are speaking in their sense. Quietly write it, they say we cannot. He wrote it all, you understand. And then Moses also got into trouble because he was contaminated by the people who were not following the Lord wholeheartedly. And he also ended up not going into the Promised land because of the people you see in the ministry. When you are going all out, you'll find out that when you ask, I'm not going, will you go, I'm not going, will you go? When you ask that question, you will not go again anywhere. So before you realize, somebody's reluctance has contaminated your whole hearted spirit. And both of you will now not enter the promised land. That is why when you are following the law, don't consult with your friend and say, Charlie, it's friends, friends who? It's girls, girls, it's boys, boys. It is friendship, friendship. Say something like that in the ministry, It's an individual thing. You and your God only. Period. When you start letting other people's negative attitude contaminate you, you are down for Moses was so frustrated by the people that he took a rod and he struck there. He was angry the people were provoking him or every. Day, he was provoked by their attitude. I remember in the ministry at a point I realized that I wanted to go all the way. And many of my pastors don't want to go all the way. They don't want to go all out. Many of the people that I started with in the ministry that I thought would help me, they did not want to help me and they don't want to go all the way. So because of that, I ended up having to work with people I would never have chosen to work with. Many of the ladies that you see around, I would never have chosen them to work. Why should I choose them? What can they do? But many of the people who would have actually been the ones but instead of I, I'm determined I will not allow them to also kill my calling. And many times I found out that in my own churches, they would not be appreciating what I am even teaching. Then I found outside the lighthouse people appreciating it even more than those ones in the lighthouse. That's why you see me traveling to certain places to go and preach. And you see the way you are received. You can't even believe it. Yeah, because all these were. Efforts to escape from being dampened and destroyed by the adults who are not following the Lord all heartedly as you want to follow the Lord before you realize your ministry is finished. Like I will be holding this book mega church and shouting at you. You can have that mega church. You will not understand what I'm talking about, but there are people today. Who thanked me for that book Mega Church? Yes, they thanked me for the book Mega Church. It's true. They are grateful that I wrote the book. I have received letters from so many. They thanked me this book, act of leadership, act of this. And I know, I know that they are not just talking because there are things I can't tell you. I can't tell you about certain things. If I, if I tell you to not be fine, protocol will not allow us. So I know that it's not just talking at all. We really like this, but we're both, but we are really calm. That I cannot even go when they are inviting me yeah so challenge sometimes you need to break away from the rest of the club spy. She's actually they are about to make you into, I mean a. Layperson, that is not your actual this thing at all. So you are turning into something that was not your original and the Moses never ended the promise line. He never. Never entered the promised land. He never entered the promised land. His original mission were gutted. I'm taking you to the other. He never entered. Why? Because of people around who were not following the Lord who had taken as. He was originally following the Lord who heartedly. I tell you. Those of you who are looking at groups. Kali, this one, it is a it's a Kalibutino. Kali. We are. We are you. And who don't we, we anybody. Oh, it's you. It's you and your God. That is the reason why a lot of people don't follow the call of God. They look at us. Are you going I? Said no, I'm not. Going. Are you going? And later he will go and you will stay. Later he will go and you will stay. Yeah. Later He will go and you will be there has contaminated your wholehearted following of the Lord. Those of you who. Don't want to be the minority you can't be in this work. You can never give yourself what most people don't love God. In this book, Rejoiner's book on When God Walked the Earth, He was. John the John was with the Lord and the Lord told him, many people don't love me. Many people don't love God. They don't love God. They don't care about God. They don't think about God. They don't want God. That's the truth. They are not prepared to give God anything, but they are liars withered potbellies when they are you. Know a lot of us developed. Potbellies as you go, as you see your stomach flat, it's going to turn into a big thing. You'll be surprised. You will be of a different shape, of a different size, of a different presentation when everything about you is distorted. Your breasts have turned into a chalawatte. Your. Stomach have turned into a World Cup, soccer A ball. I mean everything. About you has changed. There's a lot. Here. I am half of my candle. Somebody should get me a candle. And I need a candle. Yeah. I've got a small stab of my candle. Lord, I give you my awe. I give you my awe. Yeah. So my friends, you are one following groups today we are all going to China. Oh, it's a friend. Friends, we are friends. Friends we are going to China. Today we are all doing this. Oh, find your way. You and your God, you before you realize you know what is sad is like somebody with like a special person like Moses, you can't make it. Yeah, especially first time you can't enter. Look, my ministry would have ended long ago out of frustration. One day I was with a group. I thought, Charlie, we are all making, we are all going. We came to Manpun to pray and I was I was sharing the principles that I found in this. We have to do this. The church is going to do this. We are doing this. Then I was quietly with the person on the side and this person said to me, Bishop is not like that with everybody. Your father has a lot of money. Our parents don't have so much. So it's that we can't do. What you are talking about? I said. What are you saying? Which father has money, eh? Your father, husband. That's why you are saying you are talking about that Forgive. Then I realized that the way I was. Trying to dive into that is not how people were also seeing it. Yeah, so my friends, look, don't look at around to see there's some Grupo when you are sent to a village. Go and we are going to send you as missionaries. You may think I don't. So who will be with me? Oh, there will always be those who will not go. When I stand there and stand and stand there, only few will go. All this plenty talking. Oh, you will see few people few and. We will be. Few up there in the Thrones you watch and see you will be in the masses. We will be waving, be passing in Chariots. I say. But you when I was telling you to you anyway, you later continue with my Rd. in heaven. I'll move with my chariot. I said I'm going to see Elijah. I'll be back. I'm going for a weekend with Matthew, Matthew and I Matthew, Luke and I, we are having some weekends bringing some house somewhere and later. But you, you, you will be at the outer darkness of heaven. You'll be in heaven, but at the. Last corner. You think it's a joke? It's a. Real thing I'm saying to happen practically. So give thyself holy. How many people have given themselves holy? Josiah, Joshua, Caleb, King ASA, Second Chronicles, chapter 15, verse 15. And all Judah rejoiced at the oath, for they have sworn with all their hearts, and sought him with their whole desire. And he was pound of them, and the Lord gave them rest. Roundabouts. Amen. What does it say the Lord? They have sought the Lord with their whole desire. Desire. My desire is for you, O Lord, Amen. Everybody say my whole desire, my whole desire, my whole heart, my whole mind, my whole soul, my whole body is for the Lord. The next person, Paul, gave himself wholly to the Lord. Amen. In Romans chapter one, verse 9, he described his servant. Of the Lord, what did he say? He said God. Whom I serve with my whole heart in preaching the gospel of His Son. That should tell you some of us are not serving the Lord with our whole hearts, Amen. Are you listening to me? And finally Jesus Christ gave himself holy Amen. John Chapter 9 verse four. He said I must wek the weks of him that sends me while it is day. The night cometh when no man can wet. He wanted to wek, He wanted to wek. And in Luke Chapter 9 verse 51. And it came to pass when the time was come. That he should be received up. He steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem. It was like he had made-up his mind. I'm going to Jerusalem. I will die there. Wow, wow. I tell you, I'm sure God wishes that all Christians will be Arabs, Arabs or Jews constantly when Arabs serve. God. They serve him wildly and vertically. Yeah, that's why the Bible says when the punishment was coming from Noah, he cursed Ham or Ham's son Canaan. And then he blessed Japheth, and he said Japheth will be enlarged. Then he said blessed be the God of Shem, which is the Middle East. It's like Shem's God is blessed. Like if Shem has a God, that God is lucky the way he will be saved. Do you understand if if shame has a God, blessed be the God of shame. That was that was all that he said that if shame has a God, the God is lucky for God. The way shame serves the God is wild and. When you go to Israel, you'll see at the wailing. War, the Arabs on this side. Now I thought it was the Arabs who were wild. And then you see them on the Palestinian side of the wall, that wall that they go to pray and that wailing where they they put papers into the wall and you put your prayers in and leave it there. The Wailing Wall. So it's supposed to be part of the Solomon's Temple, but on the side of the wall is a part you don't see on television. There is like a, like a tunnel underground. When you enter, you will see Jews. With traps and hearts praying and. Most more children memorizing the Torah memorizing and they will be there all. Up with their. Eyes open, children, all of them are shaking them. The tones that we are playing, stuffing here. And the Arabs are also memorizing the Koran. They dememorate the whole Koran and they pray and blessed be the God of shame. It's like God's shame is lucky. Shame's God is lucky. Ayush, Sham has a God. That God is lucky. If I wish Sham serves. Yeah. So when there is a religion, it is Middle East to carry it. Yeah. So you see that Koran and whatever from the Arab side, they are wild. I mean, the team didn't believe. It's not a small thing. Yeah, I watched some guys in America. They were giving a speech. There must be widows. They was talking about the about the jihad. There must be widows. There must be orphans. There must be blood. There must be widows. It's like we must kill them. That's it. But some of these are Nephilims. They are not. They are not normal. There must be blood. There must be widows. There must be orphans. God is wishing you would be like an Arab or a Jew in your service to God. Yeah. May. May you all sisters who are believing God to have a good missionary husband, raise your hand. If you don't want a missionary, don't raise your hand. You see that you do not. You know, I don't want to pray for something that you don't want. Raise your hand, let me see Father answer their prayers in Jesus name, I pray. What about this side? Oh, this side are fewer. This side is not a non missionary section of that. This is a non missionary section. This is a missionary section, isn't it? Wow. There are more missionary prone people on this side. These are more dignified LZ and other type of I mean take your time Christianity. Jesus made his face. I'm going to Jerusalem to. Die to die. I'm a guy. Yeah, suicide. The author of that thing dying for your religion is Jesus Christ. Well, the religion now has a leader who goes to die intentionally for his belief is Christianity. It is no other religion than Christianity. We have been taught to go and die intentionally for the Lord. Yeah, somebody said. So if I send, if you send all these people. Who will be left in the church? Plenty. Those who would disobey are plenty More will not obey. Those who obey, they are few. You know, I was talking to one of our missionaries. He was going to do something very bad and he thought I was angry with him. Of course I was not happy with what he what he was going to do. But I told him, Charlie, look, you know. You are special. The town that you went to as a missionary, few people will go there. I'll preach up for a year, 100, I'm 50 years old. I've been preaching. I can count on my hand how many people will go. He will not go. So for that alone, yeah, you always be spelled even if you do what you are doing. Yeah. I'm not saying you should do it. I say don't do it. But you say you. Do. But I'm just letting you know that you see, God does not forget your good deeds. The Bible says that David served the Lord perfectly all his days except in the matter of urea, the Hittite. So even. Though the Uriah the Hitta thing was a big thing, God did not forget his good that he had served the Lord with Amen. So I told him, you know that you went to this mission field. I have a lot of. People, so we want to come to the camp. They they, they treat. Me like Mickey Mouse, like I should talk like a parrot. You see people, you know, people want to trick me all the time. They feel they know what I say and what I've been. So they will ask me questions so that I will say certain things. You know, I've been tricked many time apart. So these days I know that I look at it. And so this guy is also trying to join that group and this is a very nasty thing. The trick is they want you to speak. Come, come and hold the camp. We want you to have a camp here. They feel that like I'm some kind of machine. You just press play and I stop shouting. Give yourself holy, die for Jesus. Do this. I mean. That's true. That's how people, some people see me. Yeah, just press play and I'll start. I mean, screaming that people should die for Jesus. They shouldn't work again anywhere. They shouldn't do anything. They should follow who is even more. Look at the things that we are building. Here, if we don't have sense, do you think we can do what we are doing? Yeah, so. Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't don't try to make. Fool of the Anointing. So come and tell us we will go to a mission to speak to and you know nobody here can go to any mission whatever come and save me whatever it's like I say I'm an idiot that plane. So when you press the Houston go give yourself hold That is what this all out please. These are the only things that he. We know him. You don't know me. You don't know you don't. One day, you see, I took a sister somewhere, you know, and then I showed her something. She was shocked. Then I showed her and I said you don't know me. You have worked with me for years. Unless I revealed myself to you never know much about me. There are people that are dancing in front of me, but you don't know anything about them. Yeah. Unless I expose myself, you will not know. You will just be thinking, you know everybody. Actually, you don't know anything. Yeah. So watch out those who feel you can just, I mean, you're just making fun of that, making fun of that. Oh, just say, oh, we know you're going to say do do this, go on missions, this, this and that. These are what you say, come and say for us. We are coming to listen to you. We know that you. Jump around for 40. 8 hours and then after we will go home, we enjoy it and then we will go home. Yeah, I know. Because sometimes you ask yourself, why do you want to be here when you are? Here are you going to are you going to obey the voice of the Lord? You know The thing is not a secret. What are? What are you? Doing here? What are you doing here? It's just to share, talk this world. What about just speaking? Hey. So be careful. Some of you are trifling with anointing. You think that it's just a joke. You think that we are just talking. I have many things I can talk about from marriage, and I'm putting books on them. Finances, marriage, This does. And my business that I'm doing as a business, which I started to do when I was 25 years old, has been successful. It's been successful, Yeah. Even financially successful. Financially successful, Yeah. So don't. Don't. Don't trifle with something that is honorable and holy. Just say just say like ask him this question because I shared some things with you in the preaching. Like you said ask him this question like he would say this then when he said he also say this and then. He would speak out and say OK then. We'll go home, yeah. So watch out, Jesus gave himself holy. In Philippians chapter 2, Mambo says he being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient and to death, even the death of the cross. I mean what? Else can you? What else are you holding back when you are obedient to the death? Obedient even to come for Tuesday. 'S service you cannot do how much more obedience to death and death on the cross. You're talking about serious things here. I am talking about serious working for God. I'm not talking about Mickey Mouse Christianity. I'm not talking about coming to church on Sundays. Coming to church on Sundays. We are a lot. We are plenty, and that is why the world is dying and going to hell, because it's just Sunday. Christianity. Yeah, I've been round to towns. Villages, no one wants to go there. And I will be sending people to these very towns. These are the very towns that I'll be sending to people to. I'm sending to this. It's not about coming to listen to, I mean, nice sounding preaching. People have even asked me to write someone, someone asked me write a book about this. Write a book about all this which you will not obey. How do you understand it? Jesus Christ being. Fashioned as a man humbled himself and became obedient to death. Amen. He became obedient and. To death, yeah, that is. I'm in a summary of giving yourself wholly to the Lord. Yeah, until he was dead, physically dead. Death is not a small thing. No, you see everybody say I'm not afraid of death. One man, he told me he was dying. He he was sick and he knew that he was dying. He had it. He had a he had an illness. His daughter have given him some time and he was dying. He told me. He said, look, you can say I'm not afraid of dying, but when it is coming, like it was coming in his case, it's not the same thing. It's frightening. Yeah, it's frightening. It's disturbing. But Jesus Christ, he went to the place where he would die. Wow. Intentionally. And he gave himself up. I'm not talking about your Mickey Mouse job or your Mickey Mouse green card or your Mickey Mouse whatever you are doing, your Mickey Mouse marriage. I'm talking about real keeping yourself in. Obedience to the Lord. That is why I will always appreciate I have graduates. I send them to towns in the eastern region, towns in the northern region, towns in all over. They have gone there and they are staying there. They are. They are my heroes. And they will always be heroes. Yeah. And through them, people are being saved. Churches are being built. There is no better job to give yourself to than to give yourself to the ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen and to give yourself completely. And totally, he's not a joker. And I'm not a parrot. I'm not a machine. You ask this question. Let's ask him this. Ask him this and ask him say this. I can mention their names. Their names are in my head like this. I can mention their name. They think I'm a fool. Yeah. Then I see. Let's look at what this. What? Look at what this say. Come and preach. Preach this. We know what you preach. That is why they're eating some invitation. When they invite me, I don't go because really they don't really do you know that people ask you to preach what they don't believe. One day I invited an speaker who who travels around preaching. He said he was not going to go to whatever. And I said, oh, why? He said, oh, they just want to use me. They want to use me for an event and they want to use me to gather crowds and they want to use me to raise funds. Yeah, but it's not like they they they they believe what? I was surprised, but I hadn't. I hadn't. I had not been invited by by people. This lady here. Come get. Get up. Where's the where's the machine gun? Yeah, over there. You, you go there. You go there because there's no space. She. She doesn't want to stand up. Give that one for sitting and one for standing. There must be water. OK, We are talking about dying for Christ, and you are sleeping all right.
