Oh, the one who is not mine that he should lie. He is the one that we have come to seek. He's the one that we have come to worship. He's the one that we have come to sit at His feet.

High above all kings, High above all kingdoms, High above all rulers of the darkness of this world. High above all demons, High above all evil sorcerers, High above all names. Lord, we just want to praise your holy name. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Let's thank him for the short break that we had. Yes, it's all because of the lost great message and the lost great blessings and the lost great grace, which we have found ourselves still being alive. The fact that you woke up this morning does not stamp it that it shall be alive throughout the day. It takes just a second for somebody to just pass away. It takes just a second for somebody to die, but somebody you had to break more than two hours and you are still alive. Would you want to attribute this to the fact that it's just by the lost grace and by the lost mercies? Or is it because we are all happy? It's because we are all alive and laughing that is why we are here. No, it's just by the grace of the living God. Therefore, spend some time and bless His holy name and enjoy Him and let Him know that you are indeed grateful. You are indeed grateful and you appreciate all that He has done, all that He has done, all that He has done. Yes, lift your voices and bless His holy name. I can tell you for a fact that anytime we lift our voices to their holy living God, His process comes. His presence descend upon us. His presence just flows and His presence comes to be with us. Oh yes, just lift your voice and thank Him. Thank him for wonderful things that he has done. Thank Him for the sessions that we have had. Thank Him for the revelation of the Word of God. Thank him that just a scripture has been made more clearer. A scripture has been made more clearer. Understanding has come to you. Wisdom has come to you. Just lift your voices and pray. Just lift your voices all over in this place. Would you mind if we can just lift your hands to him as a sign? That's Lord I surrender my whole life to you and every nature that I have, every part of me. I just surrender all to you, for I know that Lord, you are glorious. Can you extend your hands into the heavens? Extend your hands into the heavens. And then without wrath or doubting, don't doubt, liften your holy hands to him. Just lift your holy hands to him and enjoy his presence. And thank him. Thank him, thank him, thank him, thank him, thank him, thank him, thank him, thank him, thank him. Oh yes, bless his holy name. Bless his holy name. Just thank him for his message, the message that we have received, the message that we have received coming for this camp. Just thank Him for the message that he's given us, the message that he's blessing us with all. Oh yes, we thank you. We thank you. We thank you Because of your message. Oh Lord, we will not faint. Because of your message, oh Lord, we will not faint. Because of your message, oh Lord, we will not faint. Lift your voice and thank him. I am that I am God. He's the God who is full of compassion. He's the God who is full of mercy. Oh Oh yes, the first step is the message what God has shown us. Oh yes, to fulfill our ministry we need the message of the living God. Oh yes, what we thank God for the message that He has shown us saving us is just by his mercies, redeeming us is just by his mercies, bringing us together to hear his holy written way, bringing us together to have our hearts been present into by the encourageable sea, which is the word of God is just by his mercies. It's just by his mercies. It's just by his message. By His message, we can also fulfill our ministry, the ministry that He has given us. We need no more interpretation. All that we need to know is that the Lord has been merciful unto us. A generation like us, a generation like us, a generation like us, a generation like us, a generation like us, a generation like us, a generation like us filled with so much filthiness filled the the whole atmosphere. The whole world lies in wickedness. Oh, nobody chose that. He had mercy upon us. And you brought us together, Father, You assembled us, Father, you brought us for a special purpose. You brought us here for a specific world. You brought us here for a specific world. Oh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lord, Oh Lord. Oh Lord, we thank you that you are going to help us to fulfill our ministry. You are going to help us to fulfill our ministry. Just lift your voices and pray. Lift your voices and pray to the living God. Lift your voices and pray to him. Pray the Lord, I need you to help me to fulfill my ministry. I need you to help me to fulfill my ministry. I need you to help me to fulfill my ministry. My Father, I need to play. Oh Lord, help me to fulfill it. Help me to accomplish it. Help me to fulfill it even before I come, before Your presence, even before I am taking out of this body to meet You all, Lord, face to face when I'm no longer on this earth. Lord, let it be said of me that I was able to fulfill my ministry because You have written it in Your holy written way. And Lord, the scriptures are for our examples. The scriptures are just there to help us to know. The scriptures are just there to give us insights. The scriptures are just there to give us information. The scriptures are just there to help us to solve the past questions. But Lord, thank you so much that when He brought us, this is what you have for us, that we will fulfill our ministry. It is not just a section of people to call. You did not call just two people to tell them to fulfill their ministry. You did not call just ten people to tell them to fulfill their ministry. But Lord, you brought us all together. You brought us from the north. You brought us from the South, You brought us from the east. You brought us from the West. You brought us from the mountains. Just because, Lord, you knew the times, You knew the time that we are living in and how we are also living our lives on this earth. And Lord, you made this message to come to us. We embrace this message, Oh God. We embrace this message, oh God. We embrace this message, oh God, with our whole heart. Somebody lifts your voice and praise your God. Pressure him and tell him that I need you to help me to fulfill my ministry. I need you to help me to fulfill my ministry. I need you to help me to fulfill my ministry. I need you to help me to fulfill my ministry. I need you to help me to fulfill my ministry. I need you to help me to fulfill my ministry. I need you to help me to fulfill my ministry. I I need a happiness from you to fulfill my ministry. Let the fruits of the Spirit, which is joy, be seen in US. Oh God, as we diligently serve You and as you help us to fulfill our ministry, in the mighty name of Jesus, somebody lifts your voice and prays to him. Mandola Bosika and da Lamba Brandela da Caston Tandala Bragale Palandra da Caston Tala Brangala Paloska da da Bragista Mayapa. We even say that even placing us in the first love church. Oh Lord, it's all by your message. It's all by your message. It's all by your message leading us to this very church. Lord, we want to say it's just by your message. It's just by your message. It's just by your message and by your will. It's not by chance so-called. It's not by any opportunity. It's just by your will. It says by your will, it says by your will. Lift your voice and pray to him. Yes, lift your voice and pray. Lift your voice and pray. Lord help me, Lord help me. Lord help me. Lord help me in the name of Jesus, Amen. Hallelujah. We are continuing the prayer that God will show us our ministry. Amen. I want someone to open to Colossians 417. You find it, you read it. What do we have there and say to Aquipus, Take heed to the ministry which thou has received in the Lord, that thou fulfill it, Amen. Amen. And we want to pray that God will continually show us, Amen. Because you see, the ministry is a revelation. Ministry is a revelation, a never ending revelation. God is always showing you aspects, dimensions of the call. You see, you are a pastor. You see that God is going to give you a special ministry to raise funds. It's also a ministry, Amen? Yes, a ministry towards, even a pastoral ministry towards a certain group of people. So by and large, we will, we may never even finish knowing what our call is of the ministries, but we are starting with a knowledge that we have a ministry, Amen. Oh Pastor, what is the ministry? What, what type of ministry do I have? We are not into those details at this time, Amen. We are saying that we have a ministry and our prayer is the Lord continue to show me the ministry I have. Continue to set before my face, my eyes, the core. Otherwise Satan will remove the ministry and put bank in there, Amen. He will remove the ministry and give you a ministry that is aimed at having six children before you are 40 years. Everything I'm saying I can give you names of people with such visions, but we are saying the Lord show us our ministry. That is the first point. Bishop is trying to bring to our attention that we have the ministry, but we are asking the Lord to show us. Some of you know you are clear in your mind that there's a call on your life. Some don't have any idea. Some of you don't even know why you are here. What am I doing here? But God will reveal it to you. I said God will reveal it to you. And those of you who know that you have a ministry, pray that you will see it better and with clarity, because once you see it with clarity, your commitment to that ministry is always optimum, maximum. Let's pray right now. Lord, show me. Even in this camp, as I sit at the feet of my father, show me, show me. Reveal to me. I have a ministry. I just want to give you a reminder just for the 13 of us here who don't believe you are called to the ministry. The Bible says a certain man had two sons and he went one and sent him. He said go and that son said I will go. But he didn't go, only two sons. Then he went to the other one and said go, and the other one said I won't go. But later he went. What is the lesson? Both sons had a ministry. All of them were to be sent. All of them. One didn't believe it, but the Father's mind about the sun is that you are going. So if you do not end up going, it's not because you were not called, it's just that you had a bad response to the ministry the Father gave you. Amen. The point is that both sons, once you become, you see, I don't know about now, but those days, if you were the son of a farmer, you do farming. Oh, by all means, you do farming, but the son of a fisherman, you will be a fisherman. Hello. Anything your father is doing, he would like you to do it. The work he's doing. My father was a medical doctor. He died when I was nine years. Can you believe that? When it was time to choose a profession and to go to that school, I eventually became a doctor with a father who wasn't even alive to see that I've become a doctor. I'm sure his desire for me was that his son with a big head must be a doctor. If you are a child of God, you will do the work God is doing to seek and to see. So at this point we are not into visions and dreams. How you saw God calling you saying, my son, do those type of things please. They are outside here. We believe that because of the mercy we have received, we will respond to the call. Once you receive mercy, you have received the ministry. If we're a child of God. You will do the way God is doing and the way God is doing. He sent his only Son, Jesus Christ not to come to the earth to establish banks. He sent Him to come and seek and save that which was lost. That must be the heartbeat of God. So I'm just saying to you that you are called. I can see some old women sitting down. I'm wondering whether the is it age or there are men and and some woman's. Tell your neighbor there is a call on your life. There is a call on your life. Listen, it's not a joke. It's not a joke. The man had two sons and he approached each of them to go and do the work. One went, one didn't go. But it does not change the Father's original mind. Left your two hands and begin to say, Lord, show me my own, my own, my own, not my chief elders, show me my own. I want to be committed to that call to that ministry. Say unto aqueous, you can remove Aquipus and put your name there. The chances that you are called, chances are that you are very very called. The probability is about 500%.

Show me lo, show me lo, show me lo. Once I see it, I'll work in it. I know it. Now give me the conviction. A deeper conviction of the call. A deeper conviction of the ministry. I have it already. I have a ministry. I've not had a dream. I've not seen a vision. It's not a trance. I know I have a ministry. You want to pray? Oh God, Oh God. Oh God.

Yes, Amen. Is the conviction sinking deeper that you have a ministry? Don't you think you'd have believed with a stronger conviction if you had had a vision that God was calling you? How many of you think if you had a vision, you saw Jesus and I was saying, my son, come close to me, and you saw a field with wheat. Hello. With a combined harvester. And on the combined harvester was your name, your name, your full name. And Jesus is standing there. Is it the call? Is it the ministry? How many of you would love to see such a vision? Yes, but I want to tell you, you have already seen the vision. Yes, you've seen it. What have you seen? The vision you have seen is what you are seeing here. Yes. To be here, to see this, to see Bishop preaching, to hear and to see. This is the vision. Vision. You are seeing it. This is the vision. God brought you here to show you that you have a ministry. Yes, that's why he brought to you. There is no one. God showed anything in the Bible. There's no one I know that had a revelation. God showed the person something, and the person did not eventually become that thing. Joseph's dream that led to his problems. Eventually their brothers were bowing. Amen. Anyone. God gave a revelation. That glimpse was a glimpse into the future. This is your vision. It's not possible. God will bring you into this camp. And some of you, it's your 5th camp. Is anybody like that? Fifth camp. 6th camp. Your 5th camp that you've had. Shepherd's camp. This one is about your fifth. Let me see your hand. Your 5th Shepherd's camp. More than five. I mean five and above. Goodness gracious. 4, Your 4th camp fed. At least you have 3 camps here. Let me see your hand. Yeah, to all of you, all those who have had two camps and above, let me see your hand. 2. And above, look at it, is it possible God has brought you here anti dority to make you a banker? God is leading you through these camps, you know, you learn about banking. Yes, this is the call. Amen. I said this is the call and we are praying for a dogged commitment to this call. Yes, a commitment. Yes, this is the vision. I have never had any vision that I was preaching. I had a church pastoring a church. The things I see, I see them as a vision. And this is a more practical vision than even the one you have when you are sleeping. I mean, think about it as we are here. If an Angel comes here, practically an Angel physically is here. We feel the presence. Is it not powerful? Not more powerful than seeing an Angel in a dream? Hello. I mean, think about it as we are here. An Angel appears wearing white shorts and white shirts, and you can feel the brush of the wings. You can see the Angel putting something into your hands. Practically, you can feel some heat in your right hand. He touches your stomach and you begin to vomit. Snakes. Is it not powerful? I mean, do you prefer a dream to this one? No, this is it. I don't need a dream. I don't need a dream, honestly, I don't need a dream if I have. I mean, like Papa Hagen said, Jesus Christ came to the hospital ward where he was lying and pulled a chair and sat down. And you want a dream? How many of you would prefer Jesus Christ to come to you practically and pull a chair and sit down with you physically? Let me see your hand, OK? Let me see those of you who prefer this one to a dream that you saw Jesus. You want to You prefer seeing Jesus physically and practically. You prefer that to having a dream. Let me see you. That is it. So why do you want to have a dream that in the dream you had attack and you were standing among many people and Bishop Doug was preaching and above his head was a burnout with fulfill your ministry in a dream. And as he was preaching, he came to you in that dream and he said, yeah, me stand up in that dream. He there were there were about 1000 people. And he said to only you stand up. Is it powerful? It's such a dream, powerful. Don't you prefer the practical physical manifestation to a dream of such an age? I'm saying that a dream is, by all measurements and analysis, secondary. Secondary. So when somebody says he's a prophet, he's a pastor. How do you know you are a pastor? I had a dream one day. I was sleeping under a tree and I had a dream, and in the dream I was in a big hall with so many people and everybody was called. And then in the dream, suddenly a certain pastor was preaching. I don't know that pastor very well, but suddenly from the back of the hall, Bishop Dark began to come to the front. He began walking to the front and Bishop Dark picked the microphone in the dream and began to preach. And as he was preaching, he came to my area and said, you are called. That is why I'm now a pastor. Is it powerful? My dear friend, what you are experiencing now is more powerful than having a dream under a dream. This is it. I mean, what more do you want? What more do you? I said this is it. You are standing in a room where pastors have gathered. This is not a forum for banking and business. Neither is it a nursing symposium. Neither are we foot soldiers of a political party thinking about how we can rig elections because there are many of such meetings in the system. But you are standing right where pastors are being trained. If I were you, this is my vision, my dream, my trance, my everything. Clap your hands for Jesus. The dream, This is the dream. This is it. Tell your name, but this is it. Tell but I need no other arguments. Say I am convinced. Say I am convinced that this is it. Sometimes we tend to, you know, mystify life and spiritualize experiences when God is If a man you, you had a dream and you saw a guy called Frank or Fred or Edwin or Edward, and the guy was kneeling down. He said will you marry me in the dribble? And he held your hand and he removed a diamond ring and slipped it on your finger. The following day the same guy, Francis, he comes and he kneels down and he says to you that this is a ring I want to use to engage you, Will you marry me? Meanwhile, you like that guy already. What do you think? Because you had a dream and you have seen the guy practically. The guy is your beloved and what makes you believe it is that the guy came practically? How many women are married because they had a vision or a dream about the man? The guy does not come to propose. He borrowed money and took you to KFC. I said he borrowed money from his roommates. I said he borrowed money from his roommates and took you to caves. That's when you were flawed. Quattak, Quattak, ladies and gentlemen, I am with excitement and with joy. And wakes, wakes, wakes, delights. I'm announcing to you that the vision of your core is happening before your eyes. Tell your debut. I don't need a dream again. Say I am called, I am called, I am called. Begin to clap your hands and pray that Lord give me a fulfillment of the score. Let me fulfill it. This is it. I am called. Pray I am called. This is my. I have a ministry. I have I have a ministry. I have a ministry. This is not a banking lecture. This is not a symposium for doctors. This is a pastor's camp. I have a ministry. I have it. I have. I have it. Amen. We, I want us to pray a very special opera. We are going to pray for energy. Energy, energy that does not abid, Amen. Energy and zeal. Actually, we are praying about the first love, Amen. First love. All of us have got first love, Amen. I mean, there's a few of you. You went to watch pornography and the first love diminished, but it's coming back. Three sisters on the right went to Fornicate and the first love went down. But it's coming back in the camp on the side. You're on the side, but we are praying the Lord. The first love, that feeling I had, the feeling I had when I entered the church. The feeling I had two years ago, a year ago, six months ago. The feeling I have right now. Dex, I don't know if you are excited. Can I see three people who are excited? Yeah. And Bishop taught us something very powerful, that as you grow, you lose that innocence. Amen. Experiences punch holes in your zeal, in your commitment. But I'll tell you that it is not true in everybody's case that as you grow, you lose your first love. At least I know somebody who has been doing the ministry for many years and still has his first love intact by the grace of God. And that person is my pastor, Bishop, that George Mills. Yes. And I want to be like him. Yes, I want to be like him. So when you hear that things are happening, always say minus me, yes, I'm telling you that you'll be 50 years old and you have the zeal and the fire of a 20 year old shepherd. Yes. It's not every marriage that when you marry after 20 years, you lose the, the, the, the, the, the. There are people who can keep their first love. And our pastor has kept his first love. We are praying that we will keep our own. Pray now that Lord, help me, that my energy, my zeal will not diminish. Pray that my zeal will not diminish. It will be in time. 20 years later, 16 years later, 10 years later, I'll still be serving you. I'll be a shepherd. I'll be passing with joy, not as a tired pastor. Keep praying, please pray. Lift your hands, lift your hands and say, Lord, I receive energy, energy, love that is energetic, love that is energetic with zeal, first love with zeal, energy, innocence, purity. You can keep it to the end. Lift your hands and pray.
