Welcome to track #8 of Atmosphere. Hi, hello. Now the next important atmosphere OK is the Riverside atmosphere. Riverside atmosphere. When we when we close, I'm going to take you to a river. We are ready by the river. The river is just here, and you will see a little of the Riverside atmosphere, but there's a river that is passing here. Send to someone, it says, in someone. Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor siteth in the seat of the scornful, but his delight is in the Lord of the Lord, and in his Lord, that he meditate day and night. He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water. I bring up all his fruit in his season, and his leaves shall also not wither, and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. Amen. Now the Riverside atmosphere is the best atmosphere for a tree. Yeah, is the atmosphere by a river now are you listening and and I need, I need to have body because I'm not shouting. I don't want to shout, please. Are you listening now? From now, I want everybody to notice any big city that you know about and realize, recognize that every big city, almost every big city, important city is built around a river because the river gives life. So if you can have the Riverside atmosphere and and since you control the atmosphere, you need to keep migrating until you are in a Riverside atmosphere always because the Riverside atmosphere benefits are too many. And I saw this fest in a town called Cologne in Panama, South America. In Panama, there are two main cities, the Panama City. There's another town called Cologne. And I was invited to Cologne, to Prism years ago. And I stayed in a hotel that was by a river. It was when I was there that I saw the Riverside atmosphere because as I looked on the banks of the river, I realized that the thickness of the trees, the shrubs and the forest and a bit further away from the river it just taper down. So the river side atmosphere, even the air is filled with water. The ground is full of water. It just soaks all the way. Anything that is in the in the ground near to you soaks towards you. That is why you cannot just build boreholes anywhere. Because if somebody has made his septic tank next door and it's full, OK, it soaks into the ground and the pieces, water flows in every direction. And then you have made a borehole pulling down and you are sucking up the water and you say, wow, this is pure water. Do you understand? That's how that's how it is. So that's why even when you make a bowl, you have to test the water and you have to sometimes purify the water. Otherwise, you'll be drinking your neighbor's pieces, or sometimes not only your neighbor or your neighbor's neighbors. Yeah. So when you are by a river and the river is deep with water on your side, the water is going seeping to all the sun and soil on the side of the river. And sometimes hundreds of meters from the river is different. So you see, the big cities are built around rivers, like Cairo, it's built around the Nile, it's in the desert. But then here comes the river. Isn't it the Niger River? You have some big cities built around it, like Bamaku. Bamaku, isn't it Danny? The Niger River, it goes, it goes up. If this is West Africa, it goes up and comes through Niger and then it comes down into Nigeria. So it starts from this left side and it's going through Mali. And you see that the capital of Mali is built around the river. It's right there. The river is in the city, most, most international cities. You have so many bridges. It's, it's actually a sign of the kind of river that is there and it causes such an atmosphere of prosperity. He says its leaves are not weather. He shall bring forth his fruit in his season and he shall prosper. Isn't it? His leaves are not weather, He shall prosper. This is the atmosphere. What it does you flourish. So when I went to Korea, you know, where Yongicho's church is, is on this side of the river. On the other side of the river is where we, where we, the hotels are. We always cross the river when we are at the church. We go out of the church and we go by the river. I think it's the River Hahn or something. Hahn River. So many things. You know, they use the river Korea in London, the Thames River, it passes through the sea. There are so many bridges, Waterloo Bridge, Westminster Bridge, London Bridge, several bridges crossed the river. The Hudson River in New York, there have so many bridges and tunnels that cross there because the river brings life and that river was connected all the way inside to America brings life, life, life, life, life. So Riverside atmosphere is important. Now the animals, OK, are, are sometimes more intelligent than Christians. And tonight's film, in tonight's film film show, you will see the intelligence even of crabs. I will show you crabs migrating. They have more sense, spiritual sense and sense to survive, to keep moving to a place where the atmosphere would be good for them to do well. So, John, are you all right? Everything all right? You all right? Everything OK? You are sure your your hand was like this? Like something not very good. Everything OK? You are sure? You are sure All right. Her head is is in the way her head move your head. Why don't you have more sense than a crab? I'm asking you a question. Why don't you have more sense than a crab or a butterfly or a fish? A wildebeest? Why? Or an elephant. So keep moving till you get to the right atmosphere so that you can do well there. Why when 1 river is dried up they move to the next river. They keep moving. You must because they are born to survive and they need to survive. You need to survive spiritually. You need a river atmosphere. It's the greatest atmosphere to grow. When you are by a river, you find yourself growing. That's how you know that you are in the Riverside atom. You see that I'm growing a lot now. I'm changing a lot. I'm changing a lot now. How to create a Riverside atmosphere is that continuous water is different from rain, rains and stops, rains and stops, rains and stops. That's different from a river. River is always water. Now people who are always listening to messages, Do you understand and that messages that affect them and that they change are living by a river? Yes, because the river is flowing, the anointing is flowing. So you see, I mean, look, you can always tell a Christian who listens to messages, not just listening to message for fun, but listening to message and is changing with it. You always sense, but it's the atmosphere that creates continuous growth. Oh yeah, you can always tell. That's why I'll give you a Machinae. That's why I will give you messages and I will, I will tell. I'm happy to create a river. Not not like it rained last week and then you are going to die till next week. Then it's going to rain again on Sunday. And then another one month will come on. This week you couldn't come. That week you couldn't come, you understand? And then it rains again. That's different for me. I don't need to go to church on Sunday because I create a continuous church. I'm continually in church. Yeah, I'm always, I'm, I'm, I'm having preaching around me is always going on. Yeah. It's a river. It's a continuous church in your, in your life. Continuous. Continuous church. Yeah, continuous. I'm telling you, continuous. And not just listening for fun, but listening. You see that it's making you read your Bible. I want to check this thing. That's when I want to check something myself. I want to read something and see, wow, I want to check this thing out. I want to read this and you see that you are now living in an atmosphere of continuous water going by. That's the Riverside. It's not a rainy rain. Stop dry. Somebody rain again. Stop that. Look, you can't compare somebody who listens to one sermon a week to somebody who is. When you go home, it's like there's a message on somewhere. It's like there's soaking. There's soaking there. It makes you think about something. Let me check. What is it? Let me check my Bible. Bring Let me check what I heard. If you mentioned something I didn't mention the best or if you mentioned the best and it's the wrong best. So you are trying to look for the right best and it's a very powerful best. You can see that The thing is affecting you. It's a completely different person from somebody who comes on Sunday and next Sunday he comes again. You, you look at the Sunday People, all their life is to come once on Sunday. You can't compare with a tree that a tree that has an occasional rain to a Riverside atmosphere. That's how I became a pastor. I created my own Riverside and I kept moving. So give me a gun. Give me a gun. Open your mouth. I will fill it. Yeah. Just one shot fire. No, no, no mouth, Mouth. Open your mouth. OK, Next time. Next time, yawn. Next time. Open your mouth and yawn. It should be felt. So I need you. This is the best atmosphere for a tree. There is no other better atmosphere. It's even more powerful than a rainforest atmosphere. You see, which is like frequent rain, is different from a river. Yeah, you go by the river there it shall be like a tree planted by the river, Very different, continuous. I love it. I've attended so many conferences and I create my own river. You see, I have Papahagen. He's my my real father is Papahagen. I have all his messages for arranging years, arranging topics, arranging different ways. So I'll be searching because see they are different. I'm coming to the different types of atmosphere from different types of preaching. The different types of preaching create different type of atmosphere which create different. Every atmosphere creates the atmosphere bring and I I always search for an atmosphere. Recently I was somewhere praying and I was searching for an atmosphere. I need a certain atmosphere and I kept searching and it was. So no, no, no I don't. I just know what I need and this is what I this is not what I need. This one. And I got AI got it. When I entered that atmosphere, that was it. The rain started. I was wet. I was wet Totally. Yeah. So it's like, it's like, it's like I'm living. I'm in touch for hours, an hour. It never ends. Yeah. If I with me the house, you'll be afraid because there's no light. There's no light and there's voices, and it's like that things are happening. Yeah, you'll be afraid. I'm talking about atmosphere of a Riverside. Continuous. You are in it. Continuous, Continuous. Stop breaking. It's a Riverside atmosphere. It's your atmosphere. You see that you keep changing and multiplying and increasing. You look at yourself. Sometimes you see that you are in a church. Then at the point you may move to another, you suddenly see that you are increasing. I'm changing. I've noticed a change and I'm changing. And you keep. I'm standing forward, I'm going, I'm different. I sense and feel it. Yeah, yeah. That is the Ripper side. And that is why you need tools. I'll come to the tools you know that you need for the atmosphere. You need atmosphere too. Now the next atmosphere. Is the atmosphere of waiting on gone? Yeah. Now you find in Acts chapter 13, Acts Chapter 13. It says now they were at the church in Antio. Certain prophets and teachers such as Barnabas and Simeon, that was called Nigel and Lucius of Cyrene. I mentioned the names of the pastors. Somebody, somebody should get up and read it for me. Somebody should get up, read it. Act 13 quickly. You need to get a microphone. Now they were in the chefs towers at Antioch, certain prophets and teachers as Banamas and Simone that was called Niger and Lucius of Saree slowly. Slowly, slowly. And my name. Are you reading with meaning? Yes. Go on. And my name, which had been brought up with Herald, etcetera. And so as they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me, Banabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them. And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their head on them, they sent them away vessel. So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed on to De Lucia, and from then they sailed to Cyprus. Amen. Very good. Now, Psalm 27. Psalm 27. Yeah, read it. Somebody gave it a microphone. You know you need a microphone. You need a microphone. From 27. That's 14. OK, wait on the Lord, be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart. Wait, I say on the Lord. Wait on the Lord. Being of good courage, OK, He shall strengthen thy heart. I say wait. I say wait on the Lord. All right, now I'm going to give you. I think I better do that because then I can weave in and out of these different atmospheres and then help you to understand what I'm talking about. OK, so waiting on the Lord is an atmosphere. There's an atmosphere that comes in a place when you are waiting on the load. Look at Psalm 37. Somebody stand up and read Psalm 37 verse. Did I give you the verse? Psalm 37, verse 34. Psalm. Set 7, verse 34 Wait on the Lord, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land. When the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it. Say it. Say again. Psalm that 7 verse 34 Wait on the Lord, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land. When the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it. Wow. Wait, everybody say wait on the Lord. OK, Now there's an atmosphere of these atmospheres are probably the most important for spiritual people because they are all different atmospheres you can have as a spiritual person. Yeah. And this is, this is it. Now waiting on the Lord's atmosphere. Now the next atmosphere is the atmosphere of prayer, very different from waiting on the Lord. It's different from waiting on the Lord. Now I need somebody to read Isaiah chapter 8, verse 17. I'm still on the atmosphere of waiting on the Lord, but I want you to contrast it with the atmosphere of praying, atmosphere of prayer, the atmosphere of prayer. Different things happen in these different atmospheres. Isaiah chapter 8, verse 17. Yes. I will wait for the Lord. Yes, who? Is hiding his face from the House of. I will do what? Wait for the Lord who is hiding his face from the House of Jacob. OK, I will put my trust in him. Amen. I will wait on the Lord. Who is doing what? Hiding, Who hides at his face. Is it God is a God that is mysterious. Mysterious. He hides. The difference between a prophet who is teaching of preaching. The prophet's main work is also to preach and to teach. If I am standing in the office of a teacher and I'm teaching you the word of God, OK is different from when I moved into a prophet's room and I'm teaching because prophet Bible says Moses was a great prophet. All those lessons in Exodus, Leviticus, Deuteronomy, the teachings, their own curses, blessings, days, whatever, they are all teachings like their teachings of the prophet. Jesus was a great prophet. OK, so there's a so a prophet's main work, all the teachers, all of them, their main work was preaching and teaching. So when a pastor ministers, he also's main work is preaching and teaching. When a teacher ministers, his main work is teaching. OK, when an apostle, apostle, what does he have to do? He's also preaching in teaching. Do you understand? And an evangelist, I mean, when I, when I preach, when I'm in, when I'm working as an evangelist, I teach the gospel. I basically teach and preach. I explain the Gospels who have been at the Crusades. And we are about to release a new product called the Cariso. Yeah, you need to get the Cariso. It's different from the Macanen. Yeah, the Cariso. Yeah, coming soon. Yeah, you will love the Kerito because it will help you to preach and to teach about the gospel. So all these people preach and teach. So when you are preaching and teaching and you shift because like, I can talk to you as a friend, then I can shift into the level of a counselor, then I can shift into another level. I'm talking to you as your pastor. Do you understand? And I can shift into another dimension where I'm talking to you as your doctor. Each one is a different office. I'm speaking and at each different office, I take up the authority and the way I, I would say the same thing. Maybe it's different as your friend, then as your husband, then as your doctor, as your pastor, different offices that I'll be operating in. But I'm saying the same thing. So when a preaching person moves into a teacher moves into a prophet office, when I'm preaching and ministry and I shift into a prophet's office, the key characteristic you see is that it becomes more mysterious because a prophet is bringing mysteries and things are not so clear anymore. So a prophet's teaching and preaching can listen to for a long time, but a teacher's preaching and teaching you cannot listen to for so long because when a teacher is teaching and preaching, it's clear immediately. So after a future is very clear of what is being, what is happening. The point number one was very clear. Point #2 was very clear. Point #2 was when you listen to it again, it's also still very clear. So if you listen to, for instance, Kenneth Hagin preaching and Fed Price preaching, you see that Kenneth Hagin preaches as a prophet teaches the same. Kenneth Hagin would teach a message called how to turn your faith loose and Fed Price would teach the same message, how to turn your faith loose. When you listen to Fed Price, one, it's as it's clear, it's as clear as it can be. You understand it. When you listen to a second that it's as clear as it can ever be, right? You listen to Kenneth Hagin, you will not understand it very well. And it's a higher office. So actually the one that you don't understand so clearly or all the things about it clearly clear than the one that is clear because there's some mystery about it also. And there's a certain sense that comes into that type of preaching. And when a pastor is also preaching the same day, a pastor has now is the completely different thing and he is now in more practical. So there are different types of preaching and and teaching. Are you listening? Yeah. So the more you don't understand it, sometimes it's even better. Then you see that you have to keep listening and listening and listening. So it doesn't finish easily. And there's more mystery about that now. This scripture that the girl read, what did he say? It's. Read it, my darling. Read it. Why is she? Who is it? Read it again. What's your name? Who are you? Awo. OK. Isaiah 8 verse 17 I will wait for the Lord. I will wait for the Lord. Who is hiding his face in the? House of James hiding. He's hiding, it's right in his face so that so the prophet comes on a higher level. The prophets are always mentioned before teachers and pastors and the the church is built on the on the foundation of apostles and prophets. They are more senior to teachers and more mysterious because God is mysterious. God doesn't reveal everything to us. He reveals paths and we know parts of things, and things are not so clear at all. Yeah, it's not clear and it will never be clear. But with the mystical wonders we can see, we are trying to follow it. Yeah, because God is hiding. So Jesus, this is supposed to ask why do you take these people and this, but they don't understand anything you've said. I mean, your message was I guess so I went out to solve this one fell upon this one and he didn't explain it. He didn't explain it at all. And you see you, you will not get it until you read Mark four and Matthew texted and so on unless you read them in an an easier English language Bible. You will see that by the time Jesus finished preaching the parable, his disciples actually confronted him about why the messages are not clear. What? You. Nobody understands what you said. What is this? Yeah, No one understood what you said. You're explaining to us. Nobody understands. Why do you do that to these people? He said that the Scripture might be fulfilled. The heavy eyes, they cannot see. And yes, they cannot hear. Hey mob mistake. I mean why should you preach a message that nobody understands? It's even more mysterious and God doesn't respond to casual secrets. So there comes the need for waiting on God. Even me. I mean a non entity like myself. People who don't wait and have patience to relate with me don't relate with me. Yeah, If you don't have patience, you cannot relate with me. If you don't have patience and humility to wait, just wait and tell Eden to just say hello. You will never see me, you see, and, and there are there's many mystical aspects of myself. I used to think I was so clear that as I've done, I've realized that there are many mystical things about about me because we don't understand it. I've built a big the whole church is full of people and whatever you have run away to a dining hall somewhere and they can't find you in that place anymore. They are finding you somewhere and it's like different things. I mean, all sorts of different strange things. Yes. You wouldn't understand it. I'm hiding it. So if you don't have the humility or the patience, that's why John introduced himself that I John, your your brother and companion in tribulation and in the Kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ. I was on the Isle of Patmos. I was in the spirit on the lost days, your companion and your brother in the in the Kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ. There's patience of Jesus Christ if you are serving God, There is a patience. Even somebody like ME0A Captain 0 like myself, you may need patience before you can interact with me. Seriously. It's true. How much more God and now you don't have time to wait on the Lord. And it's different from the I'm coming to the atmosphere of prayer. When you are having a prayer meeting or you are praying, you've come to pray. There's a different, well, two different worlds. I'm talking about a room that you are in. Listen to me, you are in the room and there's an atmosphere in the room. The atmosphere are two. One is you are praying and one is you are waiting. Yeah, there are different. There are different, different things happen. One you are praying, you are having, you are praying to God, you are praying, you are there to pray and May God answer prayers. And the other is you are waiting on God. There are two different things and two different kinds of experiences happen in the two different, yeah atmospheres. Yeah, I prefer waiting on God to pray. Praying. The atmosphere of prayer gives me different results from that. Actually, I am launched into the atmosphere of prayer when I'm instructed to enter that atmosphere through waiting. Yeah, through the atmosphere of waiting. Then I'm directed pray or whatever. So actually, if I get to know what to pray, I'm happy about it. I don't know that I like to just be waiting on the hiding God. I say on the hiding God, on a God that is hiding himself and it's mysterious. Read the Bible carefully and you see Paul say the mystery of this, the mystery of God, when he decided to reveal the mystery of his law, the mystery of Christ, the mystery of this mystery of Revelation, all the Mystic look at the Book of Revelation. You can hardly understand it from beginning to I don't know when it starts, when it's ending. He would describe the woman, that she has lived deliciously, she has done this, she has fornicated with the King, journalist said. That this woman is a city. She's a city. So I, I love listen like if I say like, I, I, I don't listen to Fred Price anymore. No, no, that don't listen to me, but I don't have, I don't because when I listen to the prophet, I've entered another level. Anyway, we'll come to that. That's one. It's another higher level of the environment. That is, that the atmosphere is different. Did you finish? No, I will put my trust in him. Amen. Now read Isaiah 30, verse 18. I will. Are you a digital sister or you are selling to manual things? OK, give her volume on a microphone. Isaiah 30 verse 18. Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you. He rises to show you compassion, for the Lord is the God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for him. Blessed are all who wait for him. Amen. Therefore will the Lord wait, that he may be therefore with the Lord, with an English, and therefore you will be exalted. Are you reading Isaiah 30 verse 18? Yes. Please, blessed are all these that wait for him. Amen Isaiah, wait for him. He has a time that he will speak or as a time that he chooses to speak or to move or as a time that he chooses to move. He doesn't. He doesn't move at any particular time. Ah shabala ba ba, ba ba. Yes. You know, I was, I was, I was listening. One day I actually attended a conference. You know, you see, it's those who have patience. That's why Johnny, I, I, John, your brother and companion in tribulation and in the Kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ. On the third day, an Angel came into the service and Papa Hagen spoke and he said he was standing up on the stage and he said that an Angel had appeared to him and asked him to follow him. We were all there. We were all there, Yeah, we were all there. And he followed the Angel life and and the Angel walked down the corridor what the congregation and pointed to somebody and told him to minister to that person. So he came down the corridor in the congregation and the Angel had told him to minister to this person. Yeah, it was. It was. I was sitting by one pastor from Ghana. We were all together. It's fantastic. One day I was crawling. I was searching. I said, Lord, I was watching different things. I was watching different. And I said, no, I don't know, God will shoot me something. Then suddenly I came to something. Then he started to describe something. He said for 25 years I've not spoken about this. This is the first time I'm speaking for 25 years since Jesus appeared to me. I've never spoken about this and I'm going to say it today. And he started to say, but it wasn't the first day. The first day was something, it wasn't the second, it wasn't that and I was fine. He said those who have patience. That's why John introduced himself to the eyes from your brother and companion in tribulation and in the Kingdom and patience and patience. I will wait for you on you, for you, on you, for you, on you, for you, on you, for you. If you have only time, those who have no time for God, he has also no time for you. He has no time for you. In in Israel we have these Jews, the the the radical Jews IP Israeli. Israeli is supposed to join the army. The radical Jews, they said we will not join the army. They said we have no time for such thing. We are we are waiting on the law. We are in the temple. We current Jews in Israel, they said we have no time for such thing. We are waiting on the law. An atmosphere where you are waiting on him is completely different from an atmosphere where you are praying about something. Lord, I commit into your hands. Now the church that the church should go is different. Different. Yeah, different. Very different from someone who has come and say, OK, I'm here. You see, God is real. God is real. It's really, really there. And so when you go to a room, he is right there with you if you believe his Angel is real, his presence is real. So when I'm in an atmosphere where I am praying, I can get completely different experiences from when when you are in an atmosphere of prayer, you don't hear from God, you don't hear from God, you don't hear from God, you pray. So the atmosphere of prayer is a good atmosphere that is different from an atmosphere of waiting God. Most of you have never been in an atmosphere of waiting on God before. You've never experienced it, you don't know how to wait on God, for in just one day raise your hand if it is true. You don't know how to wait for God. You didn't even know that there are different things happen. Most of the time when I go to wait on God, I go to wait on God. I don't have even what to pray. Recently I went to pray and the Lord now told me I went to wait for God. The Lord now told me, now pray about this. Now I had something I said, Oh, wow, as I was waiting on the Lord. Amen. All right, so may you enjoy all these atmospheres, Zephaniah. Hello, Zephaniah. Did you finish reading Zephaniah? Quickly find it. It's in the Bible, Zephaniah chapter 3. Let's see how quickly you can find it. Zephaniah quickly. Zephaniah chapter 3. What is the city of oppressed, rebellious, and defiled? She obeys no one. She accepts no correction. She does not trust in the Lord. She does not draw near to her God. Her officials are roaring lions. Her rulers are evening wolves who leave nothing for the morning. Her prophets are arrogant. They are treacherous men. What are you reading? Definitely chapter. Verse one. I started from 1:00. Ah OK, read on for the sake of reading. Herb. What bet are you on now? Verse 4. OK, read on, you'll get there. Her prophets are arrogant. They are treacherous men. Her priest profane the sanctuary and do violence to the law. The Lord within her is righteous. He does no wrong morning, by morning he dispenses his justice, and every new day he does not fail. Yet the righteous know no shame. I have cut off nations. Their strongholds are demolished. I have left their streets deserted, with no one passing through. Cities are destroyed. No one will be left, no one at all, I said to the city. Surely you will fear me and accept correctly. Then her dwelling will not be cattle. No, all my punishments come upon her. But they were still eager to act corruptly in all they did. Therefore wait for me, declares the Lord, for the day I will stand up to testify. I have decided to assemble the nations to gather the Kingdom and to pour out my wrath on them. Have you read the date? Yes. Please read it again. Therefore, wait for me. Therefore what? Wait for me. Wait. We must weigh, wait, wait on the Lord. We must wait, wait, wait on the Lord. Learn our lessons well in His timing. He will tell where to go, what to do, and what to say. We must wait, wait, wait on the Lord. We must wait, wait, wait on the Lord. Let our lessons win in his timing heap. Where to go, what to do, what to say? We must win. Sing it now. Wait, wait on the Lord. We must wait, wait, wait on the Lord. Learn our lessons When in his timing He was left where, what's due and what's stay. One more time, waiting, waiting on the love we must wait, wait, wait on the love. Learn a lesson in his timing. In his timing he would tell well what to do and what to say. How can you be a spiritual Pilgrim without waiting on God? I'm telling you that is why you sometimes people want certain results, that you are not prepared to do what you need to do. Yeah. How can you say you've got a beloved when you have not waited on the law? Can you say you've got a beloved when you've not waited on the law, you've not waited on the Lord? You just like the person. All that glitters is not those when you wait on the Lord. When you wait on the Lord, you know what to do, where to go, what to say. You need to wait on the Lord. Do you want a tragedy before you wait on the Lord? The prophet Bangham, one of the great prophets that we ever had, he had a tragedy and then finally decided to go and wait on the Lord. And when he waited on the Lord, suddenly he saw a light appearing in the room, and the Angel, an Angel, came to him. It's time to start seeing angels again. And when the Angel came, the Angel told him about what he was going to do in the ministry, and he started his ministry through that. Amen. Are you there? Yeah. So waiting on the Lord brings great direction. It's an atmosphere where you can be spoken to. Amen. So many people come and tell me, oh, Bishop, I've got to delivered. Are you the Isaiah 40? Isaiah 4031? Isaiah 4031. I'm talking about an atmosphere. There's an atmosphere of just calmness. I'm just waiting. Just I'm just around. I'm just around, Lord. I'm here, Lord. I came to be with you because I like you. Lord, I like being with you. I like it when I'm in your presence. I don't have any particular topic. I don't have any particular agenda. I'm just around. I want to be with you. That's different from I prayed today. Three hours different. That is atmosphere of prayer. I'll show you that one in the Bible at this atmosphere of waiting. Are you ready? Yes, please start reading my dear. Isaiah chapter 40 verse 31. But those who hope IN the Lord no renew their strength. Did you use? What version did you use? Take your time brother. Give to her. Good. OK, so. Isaiah. OK, quick. Isaiah 40, verse 31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. Shall renew their strength. They shall mouse up with eagles, with wings as eagles. They shall run and not be weary, and they shall walk and not be. Strength, Strength in the name of the Lord. Strength in the name of the Lord comes when you wait upon the Lord. Amen. Brother, Are you all right? Excuse me? Everything OK? Are you all right? What is your name? Philip. You are from where? UCC. You all right? Environment in Christ. OK. Did you lose the election or you won the election you didn't want? You are not in any party. What does he mean by that? Did you win or did you lose? Did your party win or your party lost? Your party lost. OK, don't worry. All right? Everything. Don't be run off. OK, Don't worry. All right, sit down. Look, listen, listen. Some of you, you are two weeks spiritually. How can you rise up like an eagle? Bar the storms of this life? How can you run and not be? You see, you are young and are getting old. Energy comes from the spirit realm as well. How can you have the guidance that you need if you can't wait upon the law? Now, how do you wait upon the Law? Praying. Fasting is a type of you see, there's an activity, but the most important thing is the mind of I am here to wait. This is the difference you sometimes when people are waiting for me, I want to sometimes just meet with us. What is it that you want? You want to see me about? OK, and let me answer the question. OK, This one. What is it that you want? What is it this difference about just one around? Oh, that's nothing. We are just with you. We want to be around in the atmosphere here. There's nothing particular that we are. You mean that they have a different feeling? No, no. I want to say this and ask you about this. Should I do this? Is this one so? Oh, yes, that's right. Yes. And then there was a scripture that you asked about. It said yes, it's Isaac 40, the 31. And is that all? OK. Thank you. What's this? You are not of any particular. I'm here just around. I'm around and I'm around and I'm around. I like it when I like it here. Wow. Being there, being there, being there, being there. Now most Christians don't know how to wait on the law. Even fasting can hinder you from waiting on the law. Fasting can actually hinder you from waiting on the law. Why? Because many times when people are fasting, the mind that you have, that you are supposed to have, you see, I'm saying that waiting comes from the minds first. It's not even what you do once you are waiting, but the mind that is relaxed. That's why I said that if I'm all of you are waiting for me, what is it? No, I'm going to ask you about what you said last. It's OK. Yes, this is the answer. What is it? You said that you are going to dedicate my car. So I've dedicated. OK, I'll dedicate it on Friday. What is it? You said that I should come to eat your Salam. I said, OK, I'll be there on Thursday. What is it? You said that you got a new beloved and I was I was here on Sunday. What is it? You said you are getting married on Friday. So OK, I'll be there. I'll send whatever I've finished. I've sorted out the five of you. But maybe these people, they let alone we just, we are just around. So the mind isn't I, I, the one who you are sort of waiting, you claim that you are waiting on me. I also have the mind to just answer your this, this, this, this, this. I have a different attitude towards you. So God has a different flow towards you when you are waiting on him. He has a different flow towards you when you are here for a request. Now when you fast, if you notice most of the time you have a setting it must end. When will it end? If it ends if, if wait. If you say you are waiting on me and you are just looking at the tank, when will all these be over so we can get out of here? You are not waiting. You're not waiting on me. That is how fasting sometimes contradicts waiting on God. So often what you need is to learn how to have the mixture of activity, any activity that is hastening and hurrying you up like maybe you want to. We we and you are waiting for me, Jonathan. And it's like he should cancel me so that I can go. And we, we, there is better that you go and we we so that the we we that is waiting will not hasten your attitude or even change your attitude. And once you are not relaxed, you see, the mind closes up the more tense you are. Yes. If you notice when you fast and pray often, most of the time when you fast, you don't hear from God. Yeah, sometimes you hear from God after or before, because by the time God speaks to you, you hear it in your mind as well. Are you there? Yeah. So the essential element, once there is hurry up, sort this out. You said you want what? You said that you give me one bottle of water. I said, OK, see, sister, whatever you said, what you said you would tell me a scripture that I can find that will help me to get it bladed. OK, check. Jeremiah 14, they say, what was it you said you'd give me a chi pad? I said OK. I said I'll give you a chi pad. See me on Thursday. I'm sorting you out. I'm sorting you out because it's even irritating to have all these people waiting around. I, the one who say you are waiting. I have a different attitude. These people are just around and then come. Then when you come, the person is also relaxing. He would talk to me in a different way. You mean say things that you didn't even know were important. And that's why some of you never hear things that are important, because you are always in a hurry. The real important ones, they come when the person is relaxed. When Jesus was preaching, the just gave them mysteries, the real secrets He told them after. Most of you have missed the mystery, the fear of revelations and the failed directions for your life, and they are not. It doesn't happen. No, you don't wait. Everybody must wait on the Lord. That is why people who have ritual have places to go to. That's why the gardens was a place. I'll find myself, the Botanical Garden. Once. You want to be spiritual, you have to have Gethsemane, you have to have wilderness, you have to have the mountain, you have to have this desert place. You have to have the wilderness. All these are centers of waiting. You need a center of waiting on the law. No matter how poor you are, there will be a place you can go to wait on the law. What do you talk about? I'm talking about spending days, time, time, how important the person is to see how much time you have. Then he said when he was telling us, he said look, when he came to and said Catherine Kumman said who has been waiting here longest for me? Who has been waiting the longest? And there was a couple, they had come from somewhere and they had been waiting from the day before all through the whole day to the next day. They had not gone there, not that they were just there waiting. And she said come, when they started, he was there practically as they were coming, wind started to blow on them. Wind and their dress like this camp like this was blowing. It was blowing as they were going. Go, go. It was like blowing like this. It was blowing like this. Yeah, he saw it when he was telling us. He asked who the question. He asked who has been waiting the longest. And then when they started coming, when they started coming, then the thing was blowing like this. Winds, Winds. You see, God is very real. He's very powerful. It's real. You don't know that he's real. He's far more real than you can imagine. When Papa Hegin explained, he said he explained the vision. He said for all these 25 years, I've never talked about this. He said Jesus walked in. He thought it was a nurse because he could see the Grove up to here. Then he saw the sandhouse. He walked into the room. The door was Adar. He said he walked around. My hair stood like this. He said I've seen him before. I knew it was Jesus. Then he walked in and walked around the bed and he said he came, I was lying like this. He came to my left side. He pulled the chair and he put and sat by my bed. He said right there and just touch him like that. He was sitting there. He just came to touch him on my side like this. I said that's my father. He was there. He said he was explaining it exactly. Just touch him like this. And he said yesterday I spoke to you in the car. Remember I spoke to you in the car. He said it's true. He said he had heard a voice in the car. He was coming, he was preaching when he fell down. And when he fell, he fell on his shoulder. He said somebody had put a tape recorder by the pulpit and he didn't see. So he stepped on it and he was, he was going somewhere. He stepped on it, started to slide and he fell on his shoulder, on the shoulder, and the shoulder came out on this elbow. He was describing the elbow on the shoulder and it was dead. If I see it could hardly feel much, so he just said something. He finished the Semon. Afterwards he realized that the the bones had come out and was just left with the skin was hanging on the ledge. There was a nest in the church. The nest said I know a doctor as they called the daughter, she called the doctor. The daughter said come, come now. I was just leaving you come when he came so that I'd admit you. He said after we're going in the car with the hand after the service. Then a voice came in the car and said your arm is not broken and I will speak to you about it. So did you hear the voice explaining this when the Bible says that and the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah says this houses they actually hear the voices and the word of the Lord came on but nobody ever heard it so he said who is saying that? So when the Lord came to him the next they through the door and came and sat and pulled the chair. He said he was taking the like that on the 5:45 in the afternoon. He started and pulled the chair like that, like that. He sat by and said I spoke to you yesterday when you were coming to the whatever he said yes. He said when they came, they told me that it's not broken. The daughter said your arm is not broken. The daughter said it's not broken. Now what you have is worse than broken. Jesus is more real than you can in my here. He's here, He's here, He's real, He's powerful. If you can wait on God and believe that God is real, when you say let Lord, he hears you exactly clearly. You can have his presence and his direction, and His directions will come to you clearly. His power will come to you clearly. You speak like this. Even if you don't see clearly, you see that he's guiding you. Oh, yeah. And the more you wait and the more you get used to him, the closer you are with somebody. How often you hear the person's voice. Even when the person makes his voice, when he makes it funny or he does something you see that you've used. Oh, it's you. It's you, It's you. I know your voice. You can know God by by by waiting. There's an atmosphere that is created by people that are relaxed. Even me, I'm nothing, I'm zero, I'm Captain 0. Nobody chose me. Nobody ever chose me. Even after that they don't choose me. They still don't choose me. Recently before the election when this Doctor Uttar Bos thing came up and they were having whatever, they were facing him and so on. Then the government was worried about it, so they decided to meet all pastors. They called, invited all pastors that this pastor, this pastor to come for a breakfast meeting. They didn't invite me. Yeah, they didn't invite me. So I'm respected. They still don't choose me. Yeah, still. But even me, it is somebody who is not important, like myself. You understand? Even me, when I sense the atmosphere, people that are relaxed and also relaxed. Let me talk to you. Let me tell you things people don't know about. Let me give you something that I don't give to other people, even me. How much more him? He who is Almighty Jehovah, you will see one day when you see you are real and you see he said and he said the last step he said he used an American expression when he sat by him and he was talking. He said he used an American word. He said he didn't use thou. He said don't, don't. He said don't. He said don't be mad at me told him. He said he was pioneered by if I wasn't to touch him, I go. He said don't be my say if I have not, if I have not allowed this thing to happen. And you see all this thing looked like accidents. There was a tape. There was a tape there. He stepped on it and started sliding. They had polished the stage, wooden stage. Hallelujah, they have polished the stage. And so he slid all the way like that and fell on his arm. I need to. It's an accident, but it's not an accident. It's not an accident at all. So no accident at all in God. He said, I did it to get your attention. He said don't be mad. That's me. If I have not, They told him you will not have lived beyond the age of 55, that you will not have lived beyond the age of 55. And when he was speaking about it, he was about 70 something years old. He said yeah. He said not told him You will not have lived beyond the age of 55. Listen, praying and waiting and being relaxed for God to speak to you. You see that a real God will start guiding you and speaking to you and getting involved in you and your life. You need it so much. Your weakness is because you don't know how to wait on God. Your weakness as a pastor, your lack of influence and and anointing power is because you never know how to wait on earth. Find a place. Me as a student, I was able to find gardens. I was able to find out you be alone. You don't know how to be alone with God. When you can't be alone with somebody, you are not close to the person. That's what shows that you are not close to the person. If you're alone with the person, you'll be tense. You don't know what to say. What are we going to say next? That's how you know whether you are close to somebody. If I'm with you, just the two of us, that's when you see whether we are close. You see that our wife will get finished. Just now you. And I'm not talking about a parameter. I say you alone, just you and God. Let's see how long you can keep talking. Then we know that you are close. Yeah, you say you are close to God. You can't stay with him, just you and him in just an hour or two hours or three hours a day. close to some. You can stay with the person and talk to the person endlessly. Yeah, some of you have stayed with you after I've been 20 minutes, I mean 5 minutes. I'll ask this. Do you have? OK. That's why we're going to do this and finish. There's nothing. You can't talk again. Yeah, I'm showing you that you are not close to board. I'm not talking about prayer meeting. Oh, prayer is different. That's why when you're waiting on God, you may be fasting or you may not be fasting. Yeah, and when I discovered how fasting was now hindering me from wasting on God and sharing his voice, when I discovered then I modified my fasting quickly modified it totally because I didn't want anything to hurry up and fix the hurry up. I need to ask. There's nothing like that. I know. And I learned how to fast and downgrade like until there's nothing even I don't even want to eat, but I'm just there. This is like you are just patient. There's nothing more. But by this, by by 6:00, I can eat or by this time I'll be free. Free of what? They're not waiting. They're not waiting free. Free of what? They are not waiting. Free of what? Free of God, how do you think he feels? First, that we'll be free. If you want to sit with me at the point that we'll be free of Bishop. So if I feel that you'll be free of that, I'll free you immediately. You want to be free of me? That I also want to be free of you, so want to be free of me. When will he release that so that we'll be free of him? I want to be free of you too. I want to be free of you. You want to be free of God. By 656 you'll be free of God, By 6 you'll be free of God. And on Friday you'll be free of God because you are fast. And so by Friday you're going to be free of God. Do you think he likes such things? Say, say it to yourself. Say it on a beloved. By Friday I'll be free of you. Say it to your beloved and see he will accept you or he will still like you. By Friday I'll be free. By 6 I'll be free of you. Or you are going to die on Tuesday. By Tuesday, I'll be free of you. Yeah, so that's why those who wait on the lawn, you know, one day I saw all my pastors, and then I saw a pastor whose church was growing. Then he was describing his own. His wife goes to work and he's in the house. He just roams through the house. He's just in the house, in the house. He's just moving in the house, praying, moving around, walking. Those are the people whose churches grow. They're just waiting on the lawn, mostly waiting on the lawn, they read. So in waiting on God may fasten me another reading a Bible, reading a book, reading thing there. It's like there the main thing is being there without. Yeah, that's the key. And you know when you want to be spiritual, you see that it's not now that you are going to find contaminated steel with dam and this and you are now swallowing palm oil and there's so many things that are full up are poo pooping three times a day, eating, swallowing this. I mean, look, come on. So the atmosphere when you when you enter a person. So it's not even easy to wait on God with people, especially of different spiritual rankings and different spiritual levels. You see that as you are waiting, somebody wants to close or as you are waiting on, that person is expecting a prior topic. You have to give a prior topic to somebody who is not patient. It's like, So what were you praying about now? Or the person is to make texting or the person has to make phone calls and you realize that it's like the person needs to have things to do, checking his Facebook and checking his his Internet and checking the mails and you are just relaxed in the House of the Lord. You need to learn how to wait on God. Pastors whose tests don't go, they don't wait. They are not strong. They are fighting demons. One time I was waiting on the Lord. I was waiting on the Lord. Sadly in the mail I talked about 3 AMI saw Chariots. Chariots came where I was, where I was there was like a window. I saw the Chariots coming and the Chariots at the back. In the Chariots were demons with like with this type of like flying coats and so on. They were there and then they pointed. It was like a junior demon said it's this house, this is where it is. And I saw they came full speed and stopped right there and they said this is where it is coming from because I was praying through the night. Through the night I was praying, I was praying, I was intercepting the retro missiles, praying for divine escapes, broken flames and arrows. When you wait on the Lord, you pray intermittently, you read the Bible intermittently you read books intermittently you hear from God. The main thing is that you are relaxed and it's all about God. Wow, I wish you happy. Waiting on the Lord. How many are going to wait on the Lord? Will you wait on the Lord? Are you sure? Thank you. Please. I've got a beloved. So please, I've got a beloved. You are joking, you never waited on the Lord. You just look and say it's nice. And your heart as a woman, your heart moved and you became attached with a hook. You became attached with a hook. Cannot escape. Brothers, we are following breast and tie breast. You don't know that it's having an influence on you. We are following bottoms. That bottom will be unavailable when you marry. You see? You want to tap the bottom and say no way. Come on, Seal. I've sealed it. Now, Sam, let me show you the prime atmosphere turns to Acts Chapter 4. Acts Chapter 4 is a very good atmosphere. It's different from waiting on the Lord atmosphere. Are you founded? That's 23 And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them. When they heard, they lifted up their voice to God and said, Lord, they describe their prayer, Lord thou at God, without men having an F and the C and all that in them is who by the mouth of the servant David have said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things? And the kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord and against his Christ. For the truth against thy holy challenges, whom thou was anointed. Both Herod and Pontius Valley with the 10,000 people of Israel were gathered together. For to do whatever thy hand. And the council has determined before to be done. And now, Lord, behold their threatenings, and France unto thy servants, that with all boldness they might speak thy word, by stretching for Thy hand to heal that science, and wanting to be done by the Holy Child Jesus at 31. The atmosphere, this prayer, everybody praying, this is the effect of the atmosphere. And when they are prayed, the place was shaken when they were assembled together, and they were filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spiked the Word of God with boldness. You see the very place where you are spending time praying, and the atmosphere of prayer is another charged, intensely charged atmosphere. So sometimes even you can have that atmosphere in your house by playing messages where there are prayers. It's an atmosphere. I used to listen to a tape by Papa Hagen called The Greater One in You. He speaks in tongues for about 25 to 45 minutes. He speaks in. I'm praying in that message. You get it? Yeah. It was. It was even nicer than the message. I just, it was an atmosphere. An atmosphere that is created. Yeah. An atmosphere where they are, they are prayers. Yeah, an atmosphere where there are prayers is an atmosphere I like to be in. And any time you have a prayer meeting, you have a sudden atmosphere. It's so powerful. That is different from the atmosphere of waiting on God. Can you see the difference? Even if you can't see the difference, it's good. It's a mysterious thing, and sometimes as you wait on God, the atmospheres of prayer come. But then waiting on God is the main thing. A prayer. Wow. What an atmosphere. So sometimes you come to somebody how the person is a spiritual person. You see that? He's playing something. One day my wife came. I was in Malaysia. I was on an island. Do you see where the tsunami came in Malaysia? I was on that island. Yeah. And my wife was in a hotel. And my wife went out. She went out. She went somewhere. And then she came back. I was in the room praying. And when she came in, I was, he had some type of song that came. He was praying, Hey, then she came. She said, hey, you and this man. That's all that she said, you and this man. I mean, I was glad he was not a woman. Otherwise, maybe I'm in love with him, you and this man. I just like the atmosphere that is in my hotel room with bad speaking tongues. Beautiful to me. It's nice. I said to me, it's nice. Yeah. That, that that message, you know, he was preaching to Bible students. You know, I went. I went to Tulsa. I lost them. And I listened to some of the tape. Got sport. This is just a message somebody gave to me. I've listened to it and just always play. I use it when I'm playing video. My Bible is an atmosphere. You see, You need to create those atmospheres. If you don't create the atmosphere, the fish is whiter than you, the antelope is whiter than you, elephants and whiter crabs are whiter. All these animals are whiter than you, But they may know the importance of atmosphere and you don't know the importance of the atmosphere. So my tape got spoiled. That's it. It's called the Greater one in me. So I went to America and I ordered and I said this is the greater one in me. So I bought it. I got, I mean, I think all I have to order. When eventually I got it and I played it. It started, it started playing. I recognize it. I know all the stories. Yeah, a lot of stories. I like the story. I know all his relatives. I like all the things not in the, in the preaching. It was going, going, going, going, finished the first side and started the second side. And when it finished the message, then it ended. And then I, I took the tape. I played it back in, you know, tape play, play, play. Where's the, where's the other part? Why is the prayer? It was not there. I turn it round. I pressed myself. Ah, these people, this editor, these people who think you know better than everybody else, they have removed that cloud. It's like that's not part of the message. I just threw the thing away. One of my greatest disappointments and I don't know how to get that. Where is the, where is that? It was about 45. He speaks. He speaks to the, to the children and the process and the people that are in the school. He's in the classroom, he's talking, talking. He's telling them that they will make it in the ministry. My atmosphere has been because I need it not it's not even the doctrine of the message, but it's the atmosphere that I I use my atmosphere that I've been working that atmosphere. Oh, yes, yeah, I'm talking about that's why some of your prayer, it ends very short. You know only how to pay the loss. But our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy Kingdom. Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down. Father, these are the prayers you pray, Our Father, with our help, O Lord, die, which is great to heaven this Amen. 3 minutes. Because there is no atmosphere. Is it a place where it's difficult to pray? For instance, they see because when you speak, you can't even hear yourself praying. See sighs. Very difficult. That's why you can't pray for long. You cannot pray for long in certain environments. It's not easy or possible. I'm telling you. It's not that you are not spiritual. So anybody working in the dry, hard, cold atmosphere that you are a will not be able to unless he's a spiritual Penguin, he cannot. That's why you can't play man. You don't have a good atmosphere. There's certain atmosphere. Look, recently I was waiting on, I put in like I was saying, there are different atmosphere from different types of preaching deep, deep. And I was looking for a certain I was deaf about this two days, didn't find that much. I found that much there on the third day. Oh, come on. One day I was lying. I was half lying. I said my father, my father this, my father this, my real father. I felt it. You have to search for that butterfly. Crabs, fishes, antelopes, elephants are all searching for agnosape before they will try to operate. You will not search for atmosphere. You are trying to be in ice and be praying in the ice. I see. That's why you can't break how much you pray. I write it down, See how perfectly it's nothing to you is because in certain environments you can hardly do anything. I'm telling you, take it from me. That's why the web Atmosphere Creator came to existence that we started. I started to travel with a tape recorder. Yes, small tape recorder. It was. My Atmos CD hasn't come. The tape came, so I had it. It was called Atmosphere Creator. I didn't even call it tape recorder. And all my pastors, everybody around me, we all had Atmosphere Creators. Yeah. La La La La shabba. Now I have always an atmosphere. Without atmosphere I cannot try downfall shandola BA sabala dika barangalada. Now you stand in a rainy environment and be blessed.

You will never be like an eagle. You will never go high, you will never go fast, you will never go deep. You will never rise to the place you have to arise to because you are never in the atmosphere of waiting on him, on him alone.

How I move from the Messasa Samasa. Samasa crying for you. An eagle. You are legal. You have to fly. You have to fly higher. You have to go higher. Why are you so low? Why are you walking? Why are you walking on the earth when I gave you wings to fly? Why don't you enter the atmosphere of waiting precisely in my presence? Why do you walk like a chicken? Why did you fly like an eagle? Not Costa Dorama Rama. The the the. Why do you look down? And you should be looking up? Why do you see red sun? Why you should see blue sky? Why you not up high there? Hey, hey, hey, hey. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. None. Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah. You maybe see that. The next one is the atmosphere of worship. Parbel me me si brada ebro balamasa pari be bre mezamo brevana barbenisse nande bre nande SE me cabala. There are differences in atmospheres and the spiritual Pilgrim must discover the different slight differences in atmosphere and you must know what causes it. There is hot atmosphere, but there is hot and humid atmosphere. There is cold atmosphere and there is cold and dry. They are different and they have different effects physically and the same goes for spiritual. And so in this you are seeing fine differences in slightly different atmospheres. It looks like the one in the same, but it's not the same. An atmosphere of waiting is different from an atmosphere of prayer. Now this next two atmospheres, the atmosphere of worship, and then the second atmosphere, the atmosphere of anointed music. They are different. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They are similar, but they are different. They all have something to do with music, but they have different effects and each atmosphere has a different effect on you spiritually. You have a certain amount of development of progress, of spiritual accomplishment and achievement and spiritual attainment into divine and deep things, mysterious things. Depending on how you are able to shift into a slightly different atmosphere. If you can pick a slightly different atmosphere, you may climb a little higher. That is why airplanes one day I was wondering, you know, I went on a very short flight from German to Johannesburg and other short, short flights across to Lagos. The plane with 30 minutes, 35 minutes and the plane will go up straight up for long time. You see, because you can see the altimeter showing you the altitude, how high the plane is, and then it just goes up and starts to come down. It's like the plane operates in a certain atmosphere. If it operates in this atmosphere, it cannot fly a certain distance because the atmosphere up there is rare atmosphere that is lighter and the planes go further and faster in that atmosphere than here. So that's why you hear the planes go 33,000 feet. So that's 8 miles in the air up the fire, up the why do they fly so high? Understand. And they don't fly unless you have 1000 feet or 1000 meters or whatever. It's the atmosphere. They keep on trying to get to a certain atmosphere. And at that atmosphere they can go a certain distance. And so you need to take and you say it's all air, it's all atmosphere, that they are atmosphere and atmosphere. So you have to take. Even when it comes to preaching, there's different types of preaching that give different types of absence there with different spiritual attainment into deep things and mystical things where deep calls unto deep. There is a place deep calls deep. So spiritual music, anointed music, all right and worship, OK, and now atmosphere of worship. Second Chronicles chapter 5 and it came even to pass the 13 Where's our woke? Second Chronicles, chapter 5, verse 13. Second Chronicles, chapter 5, verse 13. The trumpeters and singers joined in unison, asked with one voice to give praise and thanks to the Lord. Accompanied by trumpets, symbols, and other instruments, they raised their voices in praise to the Lord and sing He is good, His love endures forever. Then the temple of the Lord was filled with a cloud. Go on. And the priests could not perform their service because of the cloud. For the glory of the Lord, fill the temple of God. My darling, change your version of people have all right, change back to King James. It came even to pass as the trumpeters and singers were at one to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the Lord. And when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the Lord, saying, For He is good, His mercy endureth forever, that then the house was filled with a cloud, given the House of the Lord, so that the priest could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud. For the glory of the Lord had filled the House of God. Amen. Wow, you see, they lifted up to worship and to praise the Lord. Now Second Kings chapter 3, verse 14. That's the atmosphere of anointed music. Second Kings, chapter 3, verse 14. So the atmosphere of worship brings glory. If you want to experience the glory of the Lord, worship, if you want to experience the next thing, the anointed atmosphere of anointed music, it causes your ministry gift to be activated. Your ministry gift is activated, your calling is empowered and activated by an atmosphere of anointed music. But the atmosphere of worship, that's something different. You attain something different in the atmosphere of worship, the atmosphere of worship. You attain glory, the presence of glory. And I will explain what is glory, but in the atmosphere of anointedness, which is not worship. Did you get it All right? Now notice. Notice. Where is she? Second Kings 13, chapter 3, verse 14. Second Kings, chapter 3, verse 14. And Elisha said, Has the Lord of hosts lived before whom I stand? Surely, where it's not that I got the presence of Jehoshapha, the king of Judah, I will not look towards thee, nor T thee. But now bring me a minstrel. And it came to pass, when the minstrel played, that the hand of the Lord came upon him. And he said, That's here, the Lord, make this valley full of ditches, for that's here the Lord. Ye shall not see when neither shall ye see rain, yet that valley shall be filled with water, that they may drink both ye and your cattle and your bees. And this is but a life thing in the sight of the Lord. He will deliver the muabais also into your hands, and He shall. Beautiful. Now, Elijah, all right, wanted to. They called him to minister. But when he came, the person who had called him was a very wicked man, do you understand? And he didn't feel like ministering. Are you with me? Because the person who had called him was a wicked man. You get it. It was Jehovah, the son of Ahab, who was a very wicked man. So he told him in verse 12. All right, verse 13, Elijah said what do I have to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father. You are worshipping idols. And then Elijah said, ask the Lord, leave it. If it were not because of Jehoshapha. There were two kings, the king of Judah and the king of Israel. The king of Judah was Jehoshapha. The king of Israel was Jehoram. Jehoram was the son of Ahab and Ahab was the idol worshipper. Do a worshipping bow and doing bad things. Did you get it? Josepha was Judah and he was doing good thing so he told him that if it was not for Josepha, is he best 14? I will read it. And Elijah said, as the Lord of hosts lived before whom I stand, surely. Were it not, Were it not slowly. Were it not that I regard the presence of Josepha, the king of Judah, I will not look towards the Nazi. Even if I saw and we see you say and we didn't look your direction or even see you because of this king of Judah, Josepha, that is why I'm eating and listening. So now the atmosphere was bad because when you review some of the atmosphere's bad. So now he needed something to activate his gift, so he couldn't prophecy. Are you with me? So he said, bring a minstrel. That's why I say to some of you, it's not that you are not spiritual. You are not as white as a crab. I will show you the crabs today. They can travel miles just for atmosphere. Antelopes, wildebeest. Wildebeest is not wildebeest. There's an animal called wildebeest. It's a type of antelope. You don't seem to be as clever as they are. You should really not try to pray. The one day I went somewhere. What was the turning point in my understanding of atmosphere was the time when I went to a hotel in a certain country. I had no atmosphere. I heard that's my Bible and I was going to preach. The place was already a very hard spiritual place when I entered the room. I really know what to do in the room. I couldn't pray. I couldn't when you put on the television bad news and pornography. Yeah. And if you are not used to these things, you can be taken by surprise. What is this? And instead of turning it off, you may end up looking at it and say, oh, how? I mean, how if you don't take care, your hand will be paralyzed at the remote control. And I found it very difficult because if I wanted to pray, I had to put on CNN. And there was no noise in the room. There was nothing. There was no sound in the room. So to pray, I had to put on CNN. Can you imagine playing with CNN? This is what happened to me. CNN was one of the only I didn't know what everything else, some fantastic music. So it's like the Marvel atmosphere was either dead silence in a smallish room, juicy or CNN. And now I have to choose CNN as my atmosphere. That was the place that I decided to get an atmosphere and create my own atmosphere. Everywhere that I go from that time, I cannot move the place without in my bag that I'm carrying out what I would use to create my personal atmosphere. It's true. Are you listening to me? So I don't see how some of you, you want to pray. You can't pray where you are. You can't pray well, you cannot operate. I'm telling you, there's no surprise. There's no surprise that the tree is small where it's planted. There's no surprise. So the gift is activated by the music now ending funding who that's probably why I am interested in music because music activates that gave alternate my ministry. My ministry has been activated by assisted by music. Either you have heard either sing many times at camps over and over and over again. When I'm at crusade, Vivaldi controls the whole crusade virtually with her music and all different aspects of the crusade is controlled by the atmosphere of the stage. I mean revenue stood at Tenerife. He asked What I mean. The hope seems to be something that is rehearsed. The atmosphere that is I mean controlled is like something is happening that has been done. We do it all the time. There's an atmosphere that is needed for miracles. So sometimes I'm on the stage and the atmosphere, some people come on the stage to testify, to kill the atmosphere. There are some killers. So somehow I'm getting used to recognizing sometimes the Holy Spirit of this man has come to kill the atmosphere. Let him go quickly. I said, OK, thank you. Go. Yeah. And sometimes when my my mainstrel on the stage is not careful, which it has happened before, and realize that because she is not activating the atmosphere, the miracle service can die. It can just die. You'll be there. The miracle service itself needs an atmosphere to be conducted in. Without the atmosphere, don't happen. Oh, yeah. I made great prophets like Elisha needed minstrels to activate their calling, create an atmosphere so that they could flow. Then anyone who calls himself a pastor must take musicians and music seriously. And you can't just allow any music. You can't allow just any music. I don't allow any music. Just any music. No, no, no, almost every song that is sang, I choose it Rarely do a song song that I don't choose. If people have songs they sing, it's great, but unless I also really like that song, I don't want you can go and sing anywhere else. Where I am operate. I'm in a church, I didn't come. It's one entertainment I'm ministering. I need certain types of music and there are certain types of music that be anoint to you. And this is a different atmosphere from prayer, and it's also different from worship. Worship atmosphere. You see glory, your gift to minister is not being. You are not meant to minister to anybody in an atmosphere. Worship the beauty. Glory means beauty. Tell someone glory means beauty. So the beautifulness of God comes quickly. You don't have that in prayer atmosphere. When you pray, it's become intense, you become intense and you start going towards something. But when there's worship God, it's beautiful. Suddenly there's some beauty, there's some there's something beautiful. That just comes very quickly when there's good worship. And in our churches, there's an attack on worship. Most of our churches, there's an attack on the worship is not good in many of the churches. It's just a lot of clanging symbols, a lot of clanging symbols and a lot of meaningless songs, meaningless rhythm and kind of just clanging and saying things, but not much question. And people can't worship. There's an attack because they know the beauty of God, the beauty, the beauty that comes when God is beautiful and everything is beautiful, everything is wonderful. It comes through worship. And so there's an attack. So there are few worship leaders now, good worship leaders and the worship stars. You see how we struggle to get some few worship things to go. Yeah. It's very difficult to take a good worship, a leader and good singers. Yeah, if you're in singers, you need to be humble. If I'm not humble, you cannot become a singer. It takes some something to move into a certain ranking of singing. It takes a lot. If you are ready to practice, you have to practice and sing so much. I mean, we have three people singing. I have everything to say to each of them about singing. Oh, yeah, I'm interested in music because I know how it activates. You can listen to camps. You see where Ida is singing? You see when the camp is going a different way. There's nothing like that. The camp is also going a different way. And the crusade is the same thing. Interesting. And Ida, her name means aid to help. Vivaldi means life means life. The names are prophetic names. A singer is a helper. And on the stage, you need life. You don't need people to depress yourself. This is not a miracle. Oh, this is. Are you sure that. So today there are no miracles. Oh, the power is left. Now what has happened? Maybe you didn't pray. Wow. Are you listening to me? Yeah. Now many of you. You play music, you play music. You say you are having worship, but you yourself don't know the worship song. And because you don't know it, it disconnects from you. It's just music. It's like clanging cymbals. It does. It's nothing for me. There are few worship songs, few worship things that work for me. But I don't know so much. These Hillsong, some of them are even called worship, but they are even. They will drain you spiritually. Yeah, they will drain you. So the atmosphere is so important and, and and so now you need to know I need my atmosphere creator. I need my atmosphere creator with me. And you ask what atmosphere do you need? Now you need the atmosphere of prayer like I was playing Papa Higgins state. Or do I need the atmosphere of worship? Or do I need an atmosphere of music? Or do I need an atmosphere of waiting on gone and I'm coming to the other atmospheres. They are slightly different and they have different effects. Are you still around? Are you sure you are still around? Are you are hungry? Now waiting time to finish with me. It's time to finish with me. Ashley, are you all right? Everything all powerful? Yeah. If you come where I am. When I'm playing, you not always hear music. It depends on the atmosphere that I need. If I want to grow up the atmosphere, I need ice, I need cold, then I want to grow mango trees. I know the humidity I'm going to need. And you, you want to grow, you want to meet God, you want to get close, but you want certain things. But you don't seem to know which atmosphere you need. Now when I put on music of an anointed person like like like Angry Crouch, I can, I can be in the presence of God in a certain way for a long time because of a certain atmosphere that is created of which I'm comfortable with. Because anointed music creates an atmosphere where your gift and your calling is activated. And part of the Gibbs and calling of a pastor is to intercede. Sometimes it gives you the ability to even pray longer. One effortless one hour. Effortless one hour. For me to pray is to play. And the Crouch, the one that has sweet communion. What is that? Yeah, finally, finally effortless. One hour of prayer. I will not notice. I pray for one hour. You see, all of you have an atmosphere which will activate your pastoral gift effortlessly. There is a particular worship atmosphere or news anointed news to activate your anointing so ever you will not even know you've activated a gift. Well, it takes a gift to pray for an hour. It's a gift. Oh, come on, you can play. When you look at the time, say 3 minutes, 5 minutes. Listen, I'm talking, I'm talking about an effortless one hour for you. There is there is an atmosphere you will not know. You will not even know that you played. Take it from me. There is find it, find it, find it, find it, find it. But you need to find an effortless one hour atmosphere where you you see that you put it an hour, but the whole CD is even an hour. It's gone by. You didn't even know that you prayed for an hour. The atmosphere just keep saying the song after song after song after song. We prayed for an hour. Yeah, I tell you. You see, I'm saying that people who do great things spiritually, it's not that they're like so diligent or so whatever. You create an atmosphere, the normal trees that grow there will grow there. Not even any extra effort as I find myself in effortless 1 hours of prayer. You know, recently I was just there and because as I played it and realized I've prayed for an hour because the CDs was 5017 minutes, one hour, 2 minutes, whatever is it finished already? You didn't even know that you prayed for an hour, but you prayed your being put. Come back another two hours, holding your Bible with whatever it is, but you pray. One hour has gone by. Then you see that you are moving away from the disciples who could not watch and pray for one hour, and you are now distancing yourself from the ordinary sheep. The ordinary you are becoming a shepherd who who intercedes since you are just a normal sheep who couldn't pray. But now you can pray. You can pray, you can pray, you can pray, you can pray, you can pray. You can pray because you've learned to create an atmosphere that an apple tree can grow and you are a tree. Remember you are a tree of practice at the planting of the Lord. You need a particular atmosphere to bear fruits. Remember you are grass. Remember you are a flower. Remember that in small salmon you see that you are finished. Remember that small dryness that you have become brown. You need the atmosphere to be green and fresh and juicy and voluptuous. Look, recently I was coming from abroad and I was boarding a flight coming from Europe. There are a lot of Ghanaians coming home to Ghana for Christmas. When I got to the flight, I saw all the people and I immediately knew all these people did not grow up in Ghana. They were young people and they all did not grow up in Ghana. I could see from their faces, they didn't speak. I didn't listen to their voice, their accent. I knew from their faces, the roundedness of the face, the features that I'm telling you, I knew they had gone in another atmosphere. And as I look, I will see those who have grown in Ghana. One day I went to the north of Ghana and I saw some people. They looked so haggard. And her brother said to me. He said to me because of the harshness of the weather, they have what we call premature aging. I've never heard that word before really. They look far older than they are because it's dry, it's hot, its atmosphere has made you with it and effortless. 2 hours. You know something the day that you start to pray for two hours and three hours, it will be the day that you you are able to transport a certain atmosphere. Take it from you wouldn't even notice it take it from. And also when you start to pray for three hours, you will know that you will know that you have you have created an atmosphere in which you can pray for three hours and you see how easy to be. I can pray for five hours, I can pray for seven hours. I pray for 10 hours, and I can pray for 24 hours. Are you sleeping? Sure. Careful, because the guys can shoot you at any time. Yeah, I can be there. But not, not, not, not in silence, not with CNN, not with just any music, sometimes not even with worship, because I am more familiar with anointed music than worship music, because I'm more used to setting music. It's like an accompaniment and be there. It's played two twice, it's played three times, or it's played this one. There's another place like that. It's finished. It's the atmosphere. Continue praying, persistent praying. That's why you don't play much. Is it true or not? That's why I don't play much. You can't. You are not a Penguin. So if I put you in that Penguin atmosphere and I say worship God, you say you wouldn't pray. You wouldn't even pray for one minute. I put you in the wrong atmosphere. Atmosphere creator. Hallelujah. Stand up. Is this fantastic? Is it amazing? Is it wonderful?
