I was a Christian at 10 church and I believe they really love the Lord. But there was a day I went to church and the preachers spoke to me. He said, Jesus said if you love me, give my words my come best listen to my boys. Jesus really needs to know I'm living in your life as you learn something is to learn. Maybe it needs to know that's your willingness to render wrong all of your life. Do this with a man and the things that you can do that a man should give his life for you. Do you love the Lord like he loves you? Do you really want to do His will? What will you do? In return for yourself, will you yield and obey or just walk away. Jesus really needs to know I'll live in your love with your love is this longer Will it needs to know that your Winchester and the wrong. Of your life to this field. And that's the reason you can. One day Jesus turns to Peter and says, I want to know if you really love me. Simon Peter turned to him and said, Oh my Lord, what until you even ask? 'Cause you. Know, dear. Lord, how I love. You I will keep your. Command. I will feed your seed, Jesus asking you the same early. Mr. Love. That's the things that you can do. Hear His voice in your heart today. Do not heart in your heart. Do don't turn. Away the only way you. Is your life baby needs to go. That's your way to surrender out all of your life to this way and is to that that believes that you let you die. I'll be it's your love and it needs to know that you're willing to surrender all all of your life. Do this thing and it's late. That's the reason that you can't do that. Hallelujah. Wow. Now, number 17, people who were surprised that they had to fight #1 David was surprised that Saul was fighting with him. And Saul spoke to Jonathan and son in 27 that they should kill David. Yeah, first time. Well, 19 there's one. But Jonathan, Saul son, delighted much in David. And Jonathan told David, said, my father seeketh to kill thee. Now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself until the morning, and abide in a secret place, and I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where thou art, and I will commune with my father of thee. And what I see that will I tell thee. And Jonathan speak good of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not thy king sin against his servant, against David, because he had not sinned against thee, and because his work had been to thee toward very good. For he did put his life in his hand and slew the Philistine. And the Lord brought a great salvation for all Israel. Thou so hesitant with rejoice 12 of them without sin against innocent blood to slay David without a cause. Without a cause, there's no reason. Wow, so without a reason, a good person has entered into conflict and struggles that are not his doing. He hasn't done anything bad to anybody. So as you come into this life, I want to welcome you to the battle. I know you haven't done anything bad to deserve any fighting or struggling in this world, but unfortunately, life on this earth is a fight, especially if it's you are fighting for the Lord, Amen. Glory to God, glory to God. Amen. So don't be surprised. Don't be surprised. I have been surprised all through my life. Why? I have no bad intention. I haven't done anything bad to you, only good things. And David was surprised. Oh man, what seed have I sown to reap this? I remember her certain sister, she could not have a baby and she told me, she lamented to me, she said what have I done? I was a virgin. I know this person in the church person has had five abortions and now has five children, one for one. What have I done? You see, you haven't done anything, but you've entered into a fight. You've done nothing wrong. David was a good person who had come to work when Saul was demon afflicted. David was playing that happened. He would be feel free and he served him. He went and risked his life to fight the Philistines, and for that he was the instructions for giving. Kill him a good person, a good pastor, going on a mission. So you know what? I'm going to show you the principles. Devil will never be able to defeat you. Look, the war that he will spring against you without reason. He will see something that he hasn't seen before, huh? Yes, he will see something that he hasn't seen one before. Let's watch and see. Pray that I will be able to share those principles with you. First Samuel 23 best video and David saw that Saul was come to seek out his life and David was in the wilderness of zip in the wood. And David said in the South, I shall now perish one day by this hand of Saul. There's nothing better for me than that I should speedily escape into the land of for the Philistine. And it also had this prayer for me to seek me anymore in the course of Israel. And David arose and he passed over with 600 men that went with him and to Ashish and dwelt there, even David with his two wives, Ahimuan the Jezhree Lightest and Abigail the Kamalitest Nabal's wife. Wow #2 David was surprised that his son was fighting with him. Yeah, his son, his own son, his own son. What a shock. When you read David's children in Chronicles, he lists Solomon and this one Absalom, all these guys. 2nd Psalm of 16 verse 11. And David said to ABI, shine to all his seven, Behold, my son which came forth out of my bowels, seeketh my life. How much more now may this Benjamite do? Do it, leave him alone and let him kiss me, for the Lord has instructed him to kiss me. Now David was so depressed, he said My son who came out of my bowels seeketh my life. You see, when you are not experienced and you see somebody going through something, you say, ah, just calm down. As a father, calm down and your children will come to you naturally. Calm down. Don't don't scare them away from you. You see, calm down, they won't come. Really. No, wait, you'll see something. You'll say that you are the best mother. And that thought in your head is the reason why things will happen to you. I'm telling you because when happening to fathers and grown-ups, you are always thinking in your head that there is a reason that they are reaping it. You are just like Job's friends. They have reason. But something dramas have done something wrong for all these things to happen. It just happened to people. My pastor told me. He said one day I went out with my wife. We went for dinner. When we came back home, you know, in those days they used to have answer machines. They still have them, but they were answer machines. He said when he came home he saw that there was a message on the answer machine. So you know the answer machine, you press play and the message plays. He told me I have two children my son and my daughter when I press play hello daddy I am in so and so and so. I got married today to my boyfriend and we are married and we are in whatever. Thanks for everything bye bye this thing answer machine. The pastor told me he said look and she married an unbeliever. He said he was the pastor Assemblies of God past. Yeah. You see, you may be surprised that you have come to this world and your son. So if you see my son, spiritual son, even biological fighting me, read your Bible and don't give reasons that you don't know about. I've had a lot of spiritual sons fighting me. Not a lot but I've had son. I've had some built cannons outside my house with found when the fire fire found and I have to bring arches and other people to shoot them or to look shoot my son over there. Shoot him down or he's firing guns at my house and he will come to me. Say calm down. Can't you see if it's your son you are shooting arrows? That guy is also your son. I said that he's shooting cannons towards the house. Where will I stay when he breaks down this house? A pastor who is my son, who is breaking Lighthouse up. He's breaking my house, which I've been building all these years. He's breaking down the church. He's taking away branches, separating this group, taking away members. He's firing shots at the building for which I have to also deploy arches, spear people who can carry spear like a wither's bee, men with faces like lions to website with them. Or I should sit in the house and tell the bomb falls on me, David said. My son who came out of my life pistol, I pasted them. I canceled their marriage. I officiated their weddings, I appointed them as fastest, I ordained them as fastest and I spoke good words about them. They want to destroy me. Wow. They are all unexpected battles. But that is how welcome, welcome. This is ministry. Welcome ministry. Amen. And so a Christian must not be surprised when things start to become hot. Hot. Expect fire. Well, of course, those of you who are civilians, spiritual civilians, I'm not expecting you to this, this, this don't apply to you. Ask your neighbor you as spiritual civilian or as spiritual soldier. #3 David was shocked when people started fighting him as soon as he was anointed. As soon as people heard that he was anointed, no fights broke out. Second Samuel chapter 5, verse 17. But when the Philistines held that they had anointed David king of Israel, all the Philistines came to seek David, And David heard of it, and went down to the hall. And the Philistines also came and spread themselves in the valley of Rifem. And David, empire of the Lord, shall I go up to the Philistines without delivering them into my hand? And the Lord said unto David, Go, for I will doubtless deliver the Philistines into thy hands. Hallelujah. What have David done? He's anointed just because he's anointed. People have spread themselves in the valley of riffing. You see what the anointing does. It draws enemies, It draws philistines, It draws battles not of your own doing. You haven't done anything wrong, but you see that the anointed person is in the midst of a battle for his own survivor just because he's anointed. But the devil can smell the anointing. That's why the Bible says that the adulterous woman will hunt for their precious life. When the devil sees that you are a potential great, you'll see that women will be after you. Yeah, delicious women and coffin marriage ladies. Those who want to attrapay you in a in their personal coffin, you will be trapped. When you do the right, you see that there's a war. When you do the left, you see that? Why you not have to see that there's something there. No way out. You are mine. Stay in the house. A certain lady was married to a capo man and they were asking her what is it like to be married to a creeper? So me, I like it and I prefer that. So why so he cannot go anywhere. He stays here, He stays. Here with. Me, I prefer it. I prefer it. He cannot go anywhere. He is here with me. These are is I'm busy, but the pattern is a fairy tale. I will tell you this is a fairy tale. The pattern is real, he said. Because he cannot go and I prefer he's dead office. He doesn't go and he's an opponent. I actually like it because some people were thinking that maybe she wasn't so happy that her husband was a grateful, like his lives were not, Oh no, this is what I prefer. This is important, he says. He says insecure, secure in the house. Womans, Womans. Is that how your mind is? Is that how your mind is working? We prefer us to be trapping. How that we cannot go out with the people. Is it a right way of thinking as a woman's? David was anointed. Some of you are going to have a whole lot of battles. Yeah. Battles. A church battles in marriage not because you haven't done any. They don't think you have done something wrong. He made me think I have made a mistake. Have you made any mistake? There's no mistake. You are just anointed. So it is what I've caused. Why did the people come to fight with David just because he was anointed? There's no problem. So started from that anointing even when you're going to carry their Lord, please fill me with your spirits, Lord, fill me with your spirits, Lord prayer, spirit of anointing, spirit of grace, spirit of love. And the spirit has come now the spirit has come ahead of all the people that say what anointing is this 1 is too big for us. And they spread themselves over the value of reefing. That was the Philistines spread themselves when they saw that David was anointed. That's when you'll be seen an anointed person is that the guy is travelling with Titanic struggles. Titanic struggles because of the anointing. Yeah, look, they what is named saw a friend is saying what is the what is the guy's name? Paul. He said tale because of the revelations in this revelations, I was praying for revelation every day. Because of those revelation, Satan was perfecting me freely. There was no restriction on him. Nobody knows what it was because of revelation, Because of myself. Oh, Bishop, revelation, this is revelation. You don't know the pride that I'm praying to carry that revelation. You may never know. Limited. You may never know. What is my problem? I've not done anything. I'm begging for God. It's because of God I'm doing this. What have I done wrong? Why? Why is all this happening to you, my friend? Look, just realize that you are slotted in for big time battles. If you want big time ministry, big time battle. And if you are a woman's, if you are a woman's, a woman marrying a woman being who is a brother and you, you want peace, Forget an anointed person. Don't marry an anointed man, just marry some. Very. A bank manager. Vivian. You want happiness? Peace. This guy. What is your aim in life? Stand up. What is your aim? To be a missionary. You want to be a missionary? Yes, please. And she wants to marry you? Yes, please. Are you sure you can? You sure you can, baby? By the grace of God? By the grace of God when the Philistines spread themselves out? When the Philistines spread themselves? You say you want to be a missionary's wife when your husband is speaking the words of revelation and power. Will you be sending me texts? No. No, Father. No. In Jesus name. No. No, she will not. Will you be sending me texts? Telling me. Sending me texts? Telling me texts? Good morning. I am sorry. I cannot go again. Again. That is it. I don't want you to see the name. I cannot go. When the Philistines spread themselves, just because they hear that God has given you a gift, some of you are going to be prophets. You know? You know why? Because you see something that I haven't had, God is going to give you something that I haven't walked in. God is going to give you something that I didn't enjoy. What will give you so that you can do greater works? Yeah. Wow. Powerful. Wow. Yeah. Will you be able to stand and say when the devil comes to your house, what would you say? I'm going to call mission. You know mission. I'm sorry. I'm coming home. I can't take it. I can't tell you. I will step on my bed. When I was listening to your bridge, I was a child. What I said. Woman wow it's not easy to be anointed, but it's worth it and I'm speaking a lot to the ladies begins Is he a lie of you If you marry a brother who is going into bank management you'll be a bank manager's wife. It's cool man that's cool. Or you can be a road contractor's wife Rd. contractor's wife when he finishes with the road and he comes home. Do you understand there's nobody are the only fitest and I mean these Masons and so on and there so you will not see there's no woman woman there. Wow. What do you think? On my contractor's wife, ICT teacher, ICT teacher, I see a woman coming with her wedding dress, but in the spirit she is holding her coffin and you are also holding her hand. She is holding it. Obviously, there is a film Arnold Schwarzenegger is holding some coffin. Your wife is stronger than Arnold Schwarzenegger is holding the coffin either. It's great thing. As soon as you sign, you put on that you put it down inside. Inside. This is your home. All right, Glory that guy. You guys are doing a great job. Can you stand? No, no, no. I'm asking whether you can stand when you stand now. It doesn't do anything. Jehoshaphat was surprised that the children of Ammon and Boa wanted to fight with him. Oh, and he came to pass after this also. Second Chronicles 20 verse one of the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon with them others besides the Ammonites came against Jehoshaphat. It's a battle. And that came some, and told Jehoshaphat, say, There cometh a great multitude against thee from beyond the sea on this side of Syria. And Jehoshaphat was frightened, and he set himself to seek the Lord and proclaim the fast. And Judah gathered themselves together to pray and ask the help of the Lord. And they came to seek the Lord. Amen. And they prayed to the God of heaven. And all Judah stood before the law, with their little ones and their wives and their children. Then upon Jehazel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaid, the son of Jesus, the son of Mataniah, I live by the sons of Asaph, came the Spirit of the Lord. And he said, Hakim, ye all, Judah, that's it. Be not afraid nor dismay because of this great multitude. For the battle is not yours, but gods, tomorrow go ye down against them. Behold, they come by the Cliff of this, and you shall find them by the end of the book, before the wilderness of Jerusalem. You shall not need to fight in this battle. Set to yourselves. Stand ye still and see the salvation of the Lord. And Joshua bowed his head with his face to the ground. And all Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the Lord, worshiping the Lord. Wow #5 Hezekiah was surprised that the king of Assyria wanted to fight with him. Ennet ennet second king chapter 18 And he came to pass one king Hezekiah had he ranged his clothes and he sent Elia king. And he said, And so if that's it, Hezekiah, this is a day of trouble and rebuke, for that children are come to their bath, and there's no strong strength to bring forth. It may be the Lord thy God will hear the words of rupture, whom the king of Assyria have sent to reproach the living God, and he will reprove the words with the Lord thy God have heard. So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah, and Isaiah said unto them, You shall say to your master, Thus saith the Lord, Be not afraid of the words which thou has heard. And then Hezekiah was also surprised, number six, Ahab the king was surprised that Ben Haddad of Syria and Ben Haddad the king of Syria gathered all his hosts together to fight against Ahab. And there were 32 kings with him and horses and Chariots. And they besieged Sameria and Ward against it. And he sent messengers to Ahab, king of Israel, into the city, saying, that says, Ben Haddad, your silver and your gold are mine, your wives also, and your children, even the goodliest, they are mine. The king of Israel answered and said, Oh Lord, my king, according to thy saying, I am dying and all that I have. And the messages came and said thus Speaker Verhara, saying, although I've sent them to thee, saying Thou shall deliver me thy servant, thy go, thy wives and thy children, yet I will send my servants unto thee tomorrow about this time. And it's a search thy House of thy servants. And it shall be that whatsoever isn't in thine eyes, they shall put it in thine in their hand and take it away. Then the king of Israel called all the elders. This is first Kings 20 verse one, all the elders of the land. I said, Mark, I pray you see how this man seeketh a quarrel, his seeketh mischief. For he sent unto me for my wives and my children, my super, my gold, and I denied him not. You see, there are people who just get up and seek quarrels. You haven't done anything bad, but here you are. There's a war. So all good people of the first love camp. You are good people. But expect the Nahdad of Syria, expect the Amunites and the Moabites, expect all the characters, and last of all, the psalmist some too. Why do the hidden range and the people imagine a vain thing? Why do the hidden range and the people imagine a vain thing? So you can see that the people are imagining ideas how to destroy you. The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel against the Lord and his anointed, saying, Let us break their bans asunder and castaway the accords from us. But he that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh. Amen. Wow, is it amazing. So, brothers and sisters, I think we've had a long talk about fighting the good file of faith, isn't it? So many different things and ideas. Wow. So let us welcome this past to tell us how they plan to stand for the large. Amen. The. Here we stand, standing for them all, never going back again to the world's ending away. Here we stand, fighting for the war. We will fight a good fight. Stay in the will of the war. So be strong in the Lord, in the power of his mind. Put on the whole Amor of God that you miss. That is evil day. Get up alone. Take up the shield of faith and with the sun of the Spirit we will know God. So can you help me stay here? Please stand standing for the Lord, never going back again to the world and these willing O here we never fighting for the Lord, we will fight a good fight. I'll be wrestling. I I can slash and God, but against principality, all of the power of all this world who cast in doubt every evil door. That is all to say against the blood the blood. So can you help us say here we stand standing for the Lord? And before we back. Again to the. World and be the way we want to stay. Here we sit fighting for the Lord. We will find the good right? Stay in the will of the Lord. I'm gonna fight for you. Fight that. I'm gonna fight for what is right. I'm gonna fight against the enemy. Fight the fight in Jesus name. We're fighting for the Lord, for we will fight. We will fight again. Fight to stand and look it up and go how early in the fight day here we stand standing for the Lord they ever go we ever go there again to the. World and. Give away.
