Welcome to track number 7100 million souls. Another dancing. I play a song that would never ever end. How I love the love to dance with my father again. Back when I was a little child, before I was too heavy for him to carry me, my father would lift me up and you smile at me. Oh how he loved me. He gave me a name that meant so much to hear him then prayed for me and spoke good things over me and I knew for sure that he loved me. I would not to spend an extra hour, an extra day, some extra time with for how I cherish those moments that we shared and I love, love, love to dance with my father again for. When I became an older child, that's when I thought that I knew it all. I despised my father's words. We just ignore it and avoid it. I thought it was hard and strict on us all with words, ideas that were long, long gone. But right now I see I was around. My father's words were very right. The problem was me and how foolish I have been. I wish I could turn back the head, knock the law just for one more chance be with my brother again. I realized how I did it though form on the had my father's love for me. Now I am thrown. I can't tell you see the many things he did just for me. I know I am asking lost you Lord, but would you please tell him I love him so dearly, So many mistakes with my father love so the Lord I pray turn him unto me I care. So, dear Lord, I pray restore my father's love for me. Oh Lord, restore my father's heart to me. Isn't that amazing? Wow, what a powerful song. And we dedicated that song to the Archbishop. Amen. Well, what's going to happen is that he's going to share something, you know, whatever he wants to say to us. But before that happens, we are going to watch a couple of DVDs again. Would you like that earlier on about fathering? Isn't it that a father can cause the rise or the fall of the children? The same father with the same children, Some will rise and some will fall. So the man that I'm introducing you is like that Scripture. People's responses and reactions and receptions to him have caused either their rise or their fall because of the position that he occupies as a father who has withstood a lot of sandstorms, windstorms, snowstorms, rainstorms, lightnings, thunderings and, I don't know, hurricanes. But. I feel so touched. He's come all the way from DC. Yeah, just to come to be with us. Because I told him that I was coming and I spoke to him and I told him that I was coming and he was also here. I said, oh, it would be nice if we I saw him. I said, oh, wow, come, what's happening? What are you doing? You know, so he's a special person to me, very special. From the time that I got born again all the way when I was saved, I said newly filled with the spirit and speaking in tongues. And that was the church that I I went to Action Center. That's the pasta. Hallelujah. And he was there, has been there for years and has been through many different experiences, all, I believe for and on behalf of many Christians and spiritual children and people that have been in the ministry like myself. And for me, it's an honor. When my father died, he was the only pastor who showed up when I was launching my book that I had written. He was the only pastor who came and he spoke. When I wrote the book Loyalty, I did another. I think after that I got tired of launching the books. He came again when we were, when we were building A at the church at the Colegono Cathedral, the church that was dedicated by Yung Yi Chu, he came. He was there to do the sword cutting. When we were attacked by the people in Colegono, he was also there. When Mrs. Saki died, he was also there. He's always there, not for anything, consecration, everything. So I think that he's been a, a blessing to me. But for me, I said that just his presence here, it, it explains a lot of things. It says a lot of things. Amen. And I was explaining to you that you must, it must be your aim to, to have your, your, your father must like you. But most of you, your father doesn't think when he sees you. His mind is blank. It's flat. It's just flat. Some he has, they have flashes of negatives. He thought a good thing. And some is just flat because he doesn't want to curse you. His mind doesn't work. But you must be somebody who's a father like you. And I keep on teaching it, and I will always teach it because it's a very important thing. It is from the Bible, and it's a great blessing. So I want us to just welcome, to just say a brief hello before he comes again. Let's welcome the Archbishop Nicholas Duncan Williams. Thank. You. You maybe see that Hallelujah, Amen. You know you can love somebody and not like them. Because there are certain people that is very difficult to like them. But I must say that Bishop Dag is one of the guys that I don't just love him, but I like him. And you know, we spoke just a few days ago and he said he was coming down to Philly and I thought he was coming to Washington. And then he said to Philly to Philly. And I said, OK, I'm in DC so I can come see you. We really don't see ourselves that much when we are back home. So Philly and DC is not that far. I'd love to see the Mega Bishop. To be honest with you, there are certain sons that even when they succeed, you are not proud of them because they succeeded by hurting you and hurting others just to succeed. But for Bishop Dar, his success and where he is is a great joy for me personally, because, and I must say to you that whatever he teaches, you better believe it because he lives it. And that's why I'm here. And I'll tell you why. Because if I tell you the number of invitations I have in this country and I mention some names to you that invite me and I say no, I'm not coming, it will shock you. I don't go anywhere. I've just decided that I need to be strategic in the way I use my time and what I do. And it's not everywhere I go anymore. You know, like things like Bishop Hidahosa passed in Nigeria 15 years now. I haven't stepped foot there. Mrsi da Hosa came to Ghana and said what have we done wrong? You must come. And I said when I have a release and clearance in the street, I'll come. You know, I think I think what I'm looking for in ministry right now is not to preach in big gatherings or mega churches. I preach for manpower women down. I lose several times. I preach at at the Porthe's house. I dedicated the Porthe's house by doors Grace. I dedicated Evangel Temple, the new one, Donna Maers, I preached for Bishop Kebby John Corwood, 30,000 in Houston. It's a Methodist Church. I preach in mega churches. I preach with great names and great people like Doctor Samaram, Cheerless. But my grandfather in the faith, he just went to be with the Lord last week and just a week before he left, the Lord kept impression of my heart, sent him an offering, sent him an offering. So I called my office and I said please send $10,000 to the old man. And as soon as he got it, he sent me a letter and blessed me in the letter for sending that seed a week after he went to be with the Lord. And when I come back, when I come back, I have a lot to share with you, but it is so refreshing and exciting to be with you and especially with Bishop. My wife said to me, he said, you really love Bishop God, you know, because I just I'm in a place right now in my relationship with God where success and what people define as success don't impress me anymore. I want I want a deeper relationship. I want something that has longevity in it. I want relationship with people who have been tested and tried, you know, and as I sat down, I was watching some of the clips and things. I remember how setting pastors men of God wanted to kill him years ago. He wanted to break his spirit. And the main guy who led that whole crusade lives in Maryland today. He doesn't know, has nothing sick. And as I was watching those clips, I said if he had given up and quitted ministry, all those thousands and millions and all of you won't be here. And we need to be very careful how we treat people because you don't know who you are dealing with. But thank God he didn't quit. You know, I don't know if you remember one time he came to my office many years ago and he was broken. He was broken. He was shouted and I said to him, I looked at him and I said, you know something? Those people, they were three brothers, 3 pastors, very strong. They fought me, they fought everybody. And when they saw him coming, they went to him and attacked him with strong words to shatter him. And I said to him, I said, you know something, Don't even pay attention because whatever you give attention determines your direction. And you know I forgot. This but but Bishop. Bishop told me this and I said to him, I said give it some few years from now. That threefold chord, they were so strong, the three of them, and they fought everybody. And I said just give it a matter of time, in a few 10 years, and that threefold chord will break in pieces and they will scatter. And exactly, I didn't even remember. I speak when the inspiration comes, you know, and this Cathette is only one among them that is doing anything meaningful. But even with him, it's the letter of the word. The spirit is not there, You know that he's he's, he's dried up spiritually, but he has. Works. Physically, he has works to show in the flesh, but it cannot be compared to what Bishop Doug is doing. I'm telling you, I mean as much as I'm the father of the charismatic moves and everything, to be honest with you, he is the real thing when it comes to the charismatic church. If you want to see church growth systems and organization that are working, I'm telling you. I learn from him when it comes to church growth. I'm telling you. And now, now I am not ashamed to tell you what I'm telling you because you know something, God didn't give it all to one person. And not that only God expect the sons to do better. Than their fathers, so that. If you are a father and none of your sons are doing well and you are the only one doing well, something is wrong. I didn't go to university. I didn't go to secondary school. I don't have a classmate. I'm self educated. I went to the University of Genesis, to Revelation. Amen. Sit down for two minutes. But but the fact. Is done. The fact is, done, when I was coming, as I entered the cabin, the first class cabin, I saw all these Secret servicemen all over the place and dogs and everything. So I went to sit down and I lifted up my head and here was the vice president of the United States, you know, and I'm just telling you, God is awesome. A few weeks ago I was in Ghana when the richest man in the world gave me a call, he's a friend of my wife and said I'm going to Congo and I want to come through Ghana for a few days for a few hours, can you host me? And I said no problem. So I hosted him for about 8 hours, took him to see the the president and I took him to my house and invited President Rawlings, President Kufu and all the diplomatic community to my house for lunch. You know, Hallelujah. You know him, Howard Buffett, you know, $390 billion, you know, that's what he controls. That is his he inherited from his own man managing the old man's business. And a lot of the guys said to me, but hi, Bishop, how did you pull this? And I said, I don't pull anything. I sit there and God speaks to those who are wise because it was the wise man who saw the star not. Foolish. Not foolish man, but the wise man, and there is a place in God. That you come to when you are in alignment with his original intent, when you come into full compliance with that which is written in the archives of the Book of Eternity. That it doesn't matter where you are positioned, Heaven will announce you so. I'm loaded. There's so much inside of my belly. Amen. I think that I think that Bishop made a mistake to just give me the microphone because. You know. OK, so I should flow. You know, I got to tell you that I am so catch, move over the years to see how God has worked with him. I, I, I saw his early beginnings from Achimoto and there are so many things about him that doesn't surprise me because there is this thing about him, the passion for souls. He will spend money to bring people to church. When he played our first organic red organ to tell you that story, He knows it more than me. He knows a lot of stuff about action than myself, you know, and he brought souls, LED people to Christ and. That was his. Passion. And there are so many that become a little successful. They see a little bit of money and fame and power and success, and they lose that passion and they give up on their first love. And his first love has always been souls. Souls, people not building. Not houses, not books, not fame. And that's why God is giving him fame, money and giving him buildings. He has more buildings than any charismatic or Pentecostal church in Ghana and in Africa. I'm telling him OK, but that that is not his focus. If you watch him, he wears that same black shoe all the time and yet there are people who have been built 1 mega church and they change shoes every day. You know it. It just tells you where his hat is and when his priorities. I, I tell a lot of pastors and churches. I was talking to the president the other day of Ghana and we were talking about certain situation and I said, listen, they're #1 successful charismatic church. As long as I'm concerned, he's Bishop Doug, the Lighthouse Church. Now, even though he's my son, God has graced him with the. Capacity to do what he does. With. His like nobody else. And the fact is that success is a vindicator and all the people. Who fought? Him and rose up against him you know his passion and staying with his first love has vindicated him that he's not indistinct because if you don't know he used to fly first class when he was a king he started flying first class when he was a child you know and one of the problems I've had in ministry over the. Years. Is the fact that most of the people who betrayed me and wounded me over the years and scandalized me and stigmatized me and misrepresented me, you know, and character assassinated me? If you look at the background of every one of them from the day God said let there be light, light has never appeared in the aviles. So when when they are introduced to light by the grace of God through me, then they want to do everything never to go back to the darkness. And if it takes sacrificing me, they will do it. I have brought over. 15 Ghanaians to the United States, including one Nigerian who are all citizens of America. I'm still not a citizen of the United States. Now watch this. None of them on my birthday sends me a birthday card. I don't get a Christmas card from any one of them. And they and their kids are all citizens of America. Some of them are doing well. I've taken more than 20 to Europe, They have European passports, I don't want to mention names and some of them are on television now. They are doing very, very well on my birthday. Not a card. Christmas, not a card to say oh Papa or Archbishop or Nicholas, if I'm not qualified to be an Archbishop, just call me by my first name. And just so, Nicholas, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. They have forgotten the stone out of which they were eon. And it is not a blessing, let me tell you. An attitude of gratitude guarantees longevity. An ingratitude attracts the case. And one of the greatest things of humanity is ingratitude, and that literally breaks the heart of God. When it comes to ingratitude, the Bible said that it repented. God repented for making man in his own image. He repented for bringing the children of Israel out of bondage because they looked back. And they did not give God the glory. And I think that. That is the. Greatest sin in ministry today and he's really with us especially for whatever reason, Africans and mostly also galleons when it comes to betrayal for whatever reason. And I've come to the conclusion that one of the reasons why Bishop Dad has been loyal, faithful over the years, you know, I haven't done anything for him. But if? It comes to any man of God. I was going through a very difficult time of my life and I didn't have anybody to talk to. I couldn't talk to Bishop. Jakes, I mean, he's a friend of mine. So many big names. I couldn't talk to them because none of them had been. Through what I was going through and I've survived it. And therefore you can't give me what you don't have. And so for me to take my business to somebody who have been survived, you haven't been through what I'm going through, you can't help me. You will kill me. You will, you will misdiagnose my problem because you haven't been through it. So I went to my grandfather in the faith, Doctor dear Osborne of blessed memory, and I said. Grandpa, I need to talk to him, he says. Sit down, I've heard your problems and he said let me talk to you Sam. He said #1 Don't explain yourself because you are not on trial. He said when you explain yourself you give people power to judge you, so don't explain yourself then #2 He said it takes 2 to agree. Don't agree with them. He said there are many that will tell you you are finished, This is your hand. It takes 2 to agree. Don't agree with her, disagree with it. Then he said #3 stay in the true room, stay in the presence. And he said #4 He said, let not your head lack oil. He said whatever you do, be anointed. Stay anointed. Then he said, the oil will answer your critics, and that is the secret about your Bishop. When you see. What God is doing, Jesus said if you don't believe the words I speak, believe the words. And that is what he has chosen to do over the years. That I don't have to explain myself. I don't have to prove myself. I don't have to answer anybody. I don't have to fight anybody. Let my words answer and speak for me and and to be honest, the guys who fought him, disagreed with him, don't like him, called him names and said you are caught and you are all kinds of names. They call you all kinds of things because they don't they can't explain his success. They can't apprehend or comprehend it and God. Does not owe any one of us explanation why he chooses to bless anyone the way he has blessed your Bishop. Period. Because behind every success, you don't know the heart of the man, I'm telling you, and you don't know what he does behind the scenes, and you don't know the. Price he has paid. What you are saying is not just good organization and systems, because there are people that are well organized on him and have better system than his system and yet cannot match him. It is God who blesses as it pleases him. He said It is not him that we let nor him that runneth, but God that showeth mercy. And he said I will have mercy on whom I will. Then he said Jacob have I loved and Israel have I hated. Period. It is not negotiable. It is a judicial determination. It is an executive decision. Can I just share my heart with you? Hear me, hear me. I want to say some things and then I want to, I want to, I want to activate you. Because you see, I'm telling you, you've got to hear me carefully. What you are seeing is great, but I'm telling you, the greater and the best is yet to come. So hear me, you got to do everything to protect this guy. I'm telling you, because whether you like it or not, the devil don't like him. And you've got to believe that he don't like him. Because as simple as he is in the realm of the Spirit, sometimes ask God to open your eyes so you can see him in the spirit. In the realm of the Spirit, he's very dangerous and terrible. Are you hear me? And the enemy don't like what God is doing with him and with you. In Luke the 16th chapter and the 12 verse, the Bible said if you have not been faithful in that, which is another man who will give you that which is your own. And one of the reasons why a lot of these guys I trained and I brought to America have tried everything and have failed and having succeeded is because they tried to destroy mine and what God gave to me and they tried to kill me and to kill mine. And because they tried to kill me and kill mine, it disqualified them from having their own. So they have struggled and are still struggling with where two or three are guarded with all their anointing and all their. Power. And all their atoms. All their Shanghai and shidamite, all the babalawu and all their thorns, they haven't gone anywhere. Because you can't break and scatter me to gather your own. It is impossible. The scriptures cannot be broken. So the things you are learning here from him, please believe me, if you stay with it, you will also rise when it is your season. Now hear me if if you don't kill him, you won't die. Pretty much only you see the reason why when David took Beersheba and killed Uran the Hittite and took his wife drove up and his mighty man didn't catch David. It was because they learned something from David by experience and example. David was pursued by Saul over 24 times to assassinate him and when he had the opportunity to take the life of Saul, he decided not to. He just cut a little bit of a hem of his comment and even that his heart troubled him or going that far with God's anointed, and Joab then leaned out of that. So when he killed one of the mighty men and took the wives, they learned by example that you don't touch the anointing of the Lord. Let God deal with him. If he had killed, hear me. If he had killed Saul, he would have thought. Joaben is mighty men. How to kill him? I'll tell you something. If you disrespect your father before your children, you have taught your children how to disrespect you. A true story. A father took his father with his son to the home for the elderly here in America. True story. Because the father was troubling him, so he took him to this nursing home, left the old man there and he took his son. They went the car going back home and the son was very quiet. He won't talk. So the father said to the son, why are you so quiet? He said, I'm thinking. So the father said, young man, what are you thinking about? You don't pay any bills. I appeal that. And he said, I'm just thinking and reflecting what to do with you when you are old. And the father said, what do you mean? He said I know where to take you when you become. Old. So the father turned around, went and picked his father, and brought him back home. There is no way any pastor or Bishop you can break away from this organization, from a church or a branch, and take a group of people to follow you and expect them not to do the same to you. For it is written, be not deceived. God is not mocked for what thing so ever a man soweth that he shall. When he said he shy, he didn't say when, but he said you shall. It can be one month, one year, 2 years, but he said you Shah, it's a matter of time and vindication is in the womb of time. And there are some battles you win by not fighting because time fights it for you. And sometimes you can think that you have won because the people have followed you. They are singing your praise. Saul has killed his thousands and bishops who have killed his 10,000. So you think you are the of that in town. You are the. Mogul the Dawn, the latest. You are making it, you are succeeding, but you must remember that in life you can win and still lose and you can still, you can lose and still win. It just depends on where you are standing and how you look at things. There, there, there is this thing that bends on my heart when it's it's a script writing. Joel, you all know when the Bible says that it shall come to pass our pour and my spirit upon our flesh. And your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams. And most times people believe that there's a difference between the dream of the old man and the vision of the young man. It's not true. You study carefully what I'm telling you. The vision of the young man is in the old man's dream. And your Bishop is your old man. I'm done and your vision will never be fulfilled until you help the old man to fulfill his. Dream now you don't. You don't. You don't have to agree with what I'm saying. I've been around for a little bit and I've come to some conclusions because. I've seen people very anointed, mentally and intellectually sophisticated, well educated and well informed and can diagnose, dissect the word of God, have utterance and capability to speak with such force. And power to compel people to believe whatever they are saying. One of the guys who used to fight Bishop when he was a young pastor, the guy come to his scripture and when he finished teaching, you can't help it but to follow and comply even when it has no scriptural basis. He was very good at that. You must understand something that the 12 brothers or the 12 sons of Jacob, none of them could dream and none of them had a dream. Until one receive the mantle of the old man. The coat of many. Collars. It was when the old man gave him his coat, which was his dream, that he had the ability to see his future in the dream of the old man. Because young men don't dream, so it is in the all man's dream. You have the opportunity to see the vision of your future. Because dreams have to do with insight and vision is foresight and you can have a foresight but if you don't have insight into the foresight you can miscarry what you are carrying. When God chose somewhere, he had to use the. Man. He had rejected and forsaken Icabo. The glory had departed. The glory had departed from Eli, but he was There was no other voice for God to speak to me than Eli, because that was a voice that was seasoned and matured and that was the vehicle God had used all the time and there was no replacement at that time. So God, even though he had forsaken Eli, he still had to depend on The Voice of. Eli. Because when God was speaking to the young prophet somewhere, he spoke to the voice of Eli many times. So whenever God called, he heard the voice of Eli. Because he wasn't yet a voice. He was chosen, but he was not a voice. So you can be anointed and you can be chosen, and yet you are not a voice. You are not a voice means that God can't speak to you. You can't represent Him, and you can't even hear Him, and you don't even know His voice, because God doesn't forsake the old just because of the new. It is the old that announces the new, so the new comes out of the old. So you may think I'm old and you may call me old, but I know something you don't know. The Bible said, let not him that is now going to the battle boast, but rather let him that has been to the battle and have returned from the battle and has removed his almond. Let him boast because you have been to the field of the battle. I was shocked. I am wounded, I am leaping, but I'm still here. I know something you don't know because I survived what you haven't yet survived. I know the loopholes and the potholes, and I hold some keys that I can introduce to you that can help you to escape some potholes. Say yes. Sit down for two minutes. I know you are very gifted and I know you are very, very smart. You are very anointed but take it easy because you know something. This journey is long and great ones have come and. Gone and they didn't finish. And we will also go when we have finished our course, and others will rise. But whether we will be remembered for good or for evil is determined by the problems we solve and the problems we created. You will be remembered for only two things, the problems you solve and the problems you created. And whether you believe it or not, from the day you were born you started melting. Like ice, when it's taken from the freezer, it begins to melt whether you use it or not. That is the way life is, a man's life. From the day you were born and you cut in hand and came out of your mother's womb, you started melting. And whether you believe it or not, you are melting. If you don't believe it, ask the sisters. They will tell you why they spend more time dressing up and always keeping the men late because they melt faster than the men. You may not believe me and agree with me, but you are melting some of the sisters, even the hair on their hair. It's an indication that. You are melting. I used to watch. I used to watch some of my pictures. Many years ago I had this bushy Afro hair. Today when I look back, I see this ball at the background. Mum is melting whether you like it or not. We have to do it God's way. If you are calm to hold the hand of your Bishop and to lift it up, so that Joshua and the mighty men in the valley may win the battle, and you leave him, and you go start your own ministry, and you have 100. 1000 people coming to your church every Sunday morning. When you stand before God, the shows you won will be tested by fire. Will come into the Kingdom. But you will not be rewarded for the souls you won because that was not what you were called to do. Heavens Heavens assignment for you was to hold up his hands so Joshua will win the battle. Do you know how many Joshua's are dying in the Valley fighting Amalek because leaders? Like your Bishop and many, their hands are weary, tired and weak. And the men that must hold it up wants to own their own ministries and want to be founders of their own ministry, founders and president. It wasn't the skill of Joshua that won the battle against Amalek, it was the hand of Moses that was lifted up. Joshua didn't win the battle because he was strong. No, it wasn't because he was very skillful. In battle it was the hand of Moses lifted. And if you watch the skip test carefully, Joshua parted the Jordan because his father Moses parted the Red Sea. Elijah parted the Jordan and his son Elijah parted the Jordan because their fathers walked that path and went ahead of them. They also, through the DNA of their fathers, had the capability to also do what their fathers did and could even do more. Somebody say, I hear you, Elijah did twice as much as Elijah his father did, and it wasn't because he was very anointed, it was because of the mantle of the mother. So don't take ready for your success. Joshua had wisdom not because he was smart, but because the Bible said Moses had laid hands upon him. It is not how anointed you are or how gifted you are that matters. It is what your father says about you through acceptance is a result of what your father announces about you. Behold. The Lamb that takes away the sin of this world. Who announce you and who has announced you and who is announcing you? You don't announce yourself by your anointing and by your gift. Jesus was very anointed, but nobody followed him until John the Baptist announced him. And even though John the Baptist announced him then he was very anointed and very gifted and chosen by God. He still didn't have acceptance until the Father said This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased hear him who have announced you. So it's not about anointing. It's not about gifting. Everybody can be gifted and everybody can be anointed, but it is who put. His stamp on you. Whose stamp are you carrying? Of which of the tribe of Israel do you come from, and at whose? Feet, did you study, and who baptized you and laid hands upon you? Show me your spiritual DNA and I will tell you how long you will survive. Show me of which of the tribes of Israel you came from and I can tell you. What kind of blessing? Your tribes carries until you help the old man to fulfil his dream, you never realise your vision. Let me conclude by saying something to also help. You what you. Carry is what determines your warfare and the problem with the church and why we criticize our leaders, we misunderstand them is because we don't understand what they are coming. Anybody who fought your Bishop 30 years ago, 20 years ago didn't. See. What you are seeing today and most times people who fight greatness is an indication that they themselves are not carrying anything, so they become vehicles of destruction. Let me show you some few things. How many of you remember the prostitute of Jericho rehab? Now I preach a message entitled the other day. I understand that. I don't understand what I think I understand Amen because. Because sometimes Bishop will tell you. Sometimes you think you understand God and you really don't, so sometimes he does things that blows your mind. Amen. I mean Miriam and Iran speaks against Moses. And then God deals with Miriam and leaves Iran to go free and he postpones judgment for Iran because of the office because there was no replacement. So it's our deferred judgment until I have replacement. So when it. Comes. To leadership, look at the number of years it's taken God to raise your Bishop up. And these kind of leaders don't appear once in a while. They come every 100. And every 50 years I'm done because you see, if you see. What a man has accomplished, and you give him credit for it, then he's not God. But when you see what he has done and what he's doing, then you look at him and look at what he has done you. You can tell that this one is the hand of God. I'm telling you, and anything that you can do, anything that is possible for you to do is not God. God didn't call us to do the possible. He called us to do the impossible. That is what makes him God. So rehab. The prostitute of Jericho. The spies goes to town. They go to Jericho. There were righteous. Women there. There were women there who weren't sleeping around and married women. I expected the spies to go to one of them, but they go to the House of a prostitute who has slept with everybody in town. Prophets. Apostles. Teachers. Evangelist makeup bishops, what are you doing in the House of the prostitute? But they were in the House of the prostitute. Then the king heard about it. Send Homeland Security to invade her house. When they got there, she knew all of them. The Secret Service people got there. She knew all of them. So they said, oh, it is you OK. We are told that there are some spice here hiding. No, no, no, no. You know, I mean, you know me. Don't worry about. It God can use some characters and you see this is what shows who he is. I want to show you who God is. Then why did the enemy attack certain people? Then why did the enemy hate leaders like your leader? I'm telling you. So they couldn't find anything and left, went to the kin and said, oh, there's nothing there. There was a possibility they even knew there was something there, but they were all benefiting from her services one way or the other, and they didn't want to. Lose what they were benefiting, so they had to send a good report. So God may have his reasons for using him. But let's put that aside among the spies when they went back, Joshua. Said something very interesting in Joshua chapter 6, he said he said when you go to the House of the Hallowed. Bring me the woman in the House of the hallop. So in the hallop was a woman. So sometime you can do things that is still not you. I dealt with a young lady going to Lagoon University and she said you are the only preacher who didn't condemn me but you give me hope. And I said what is your problem? And she said I know everybody is talking about me but he said I take off my mother, she's sick and I have 5 brothers and sisters. We don't know where our father is and I have to take off everybody and take off myself. And she says I hate what I'm doing but I have to do it. So I said, so if you get help, will you stop this sort of course I don't like it. So I got some of the sisters in my church and I said I need you all to help this lady for me. We supported her and she turned around. So Joshua said. Joshua said go into the House of the harlot and bring me the woman in the harlot. In a lot of the harlots are women and wives and a lot of the drug addicts we see in. Town are men and noble men and honorable men, but circumstances have disadvantaged them, and one of the spies, one of the spies, married her. From the tribe of Judah, the lineage of the Messiah, Yeshua Hamashiach. Now hear me, She had slept with everybody in town. Now, the Bible didn't tell us what kind of contraceptives they used in those days. But she was never pregnant. And if she was pregnant, we didn't know. But she didn't have a child. Then she married into the bloodline of the Messiah. One time she got pregnant and had a child. I gave birth to a noble man by the name of Boas Boas. And I know every sister here who is not married is looking for a Boas. But do you know who your mother-in-law is? You want. Boas. Boas came out of a mess, and Boas gave birth to Obet, and Obet gave birth to Jesse, and Jesse gave birth to David. Is it possible that because of what her destiny was, is it possible that because she was destined to carry such greatness, is it possible that because she was destined to carry that seat of the bloodline of the Messiah, that was the reason for everything that she had to go through to disqualify her? Because God is the holy God, in order for her not to fulfill the assignment, but God qualifies the disqualified. Somebody say I hear you sit down for two minutes now. Now look at Mary Mandolin. Mary possess with seven demons. You see, what you carry is what determines your warfare. Whether you would deal with heavyweights or lightweights is determined by the cargo you're carrying. Tell somebody I'm carrying a cargo. Some of the books you see and some of the pictures you see, these were cargoes that. Was in his stomach in history. Long before they came out healing Jesus Crusade. Those are cargoes that have been downloaded in the process of time and if anything had gone wrong with him that. Cargo. Would have stayed in eternity and in the Shambo. May every divine cargo in the pipeline, in the name of Jesus, come into full manifestation and declare that we shall take full delivery of every cargo in the pipeline without fail. In the name of Jesus. Say, I will not miss carry and I will not die prematurely. In the name of Jesus. Please sit down for two minutes. Mary Magdalene was supposed to anoint him for his burial. All that was necessary to fulfill prophecy and here was that human vehicle who was to anoint him for his burial was captured by 7 demons so that that aspect of scripture will not be fulfilled. And Jesus had to cast out the seven demons to discharge her in order for her to fulfill her assignment. In Islam, there are people out there who belong to your assignment, who have something that your assignment needs to fulfill your assignment. But they've been hijacked by demonic hijackers, they've been arrested by spiritual armed robbers, and unless we command their unconditional reliefs, then they are discharged. You'll be doing everything to carry out your assignment, and your assignment will still be lacking something because the human vehicles who must help fulfill that assignment. Do you know when I heard about Juanita's death? I lived in America in those days. I flew down to Ghana and when I saw her webs and the help she gave to Bishop tears through my eyes. Then I sat down there and I said this is a heavy hit and a loss to the Bishop and we must never sit down again to allow any lion or bear to come into the sheepfold and snatch anyone from among us anymore. We have to block them by all means in the name of Jesus. We interrupt by divine authority and the lion or bear assigned to this. Sheepfold. To take anyone strategic to the assignment of the Bishop, sit down for two minutes. There are people tied up that must be loose. In order for this vision to come into full effect, and there are forces out there and we need. To be very strategic, we need to we need to speak to the east wind to blow. We need to speak to that north wind to come forth. We need to speak to that S wing to blow and The West Wing to come forth. We need to command the four wings to go to work. We need to deploy the war in angels. We need to deploy the hand of Elohim, the God of the armies of Israel. Now let me bring it down. Jesus in the book of Mark, the 4th chapter. Had the entire city that is crusade like you have when Bishop go to these cities. Everybody was in the crusade in the mix of that great move of God. God stop Jesus and says send their multitudes away. There is the seed and the descendant of Jacob captured by demonic hijackers. And I need you to give up on the multitudes, cross over to the other side and set them free. And before then, no one could cast out demons because demonology or casting out of demons was introduced by Jesus under the Old Testament. They stole witches they didn't have the capability to cast. Them out and. The Bible says suffer not a witch to live because witches are the ground troops of Satan. They carry out the activities and the decisions of cosmic powers, principalities, powers, spiritual host of wickedness in high places, witches. The reprinted are the number one public enemies. They are in every family, in every ministry. Some are even here. But I call for divine plagues, I call for divine judgments against your assignment in this house and when Jesus was living on the boat to the other side to set this guy free. The Bible says, and there are roles. A great storm and the winds were contrived, and the attempt of the enemy was to drown the boat, to stop Jesus from getting to the other side, to set this guy free. The demons were so intelligent and they were so powerful. Through demonic intelligence and networking and radars, they could pick that deliverance was coming for the gun and they knew exactly that the deliverance was coming through the sea. Whoever was bringing the deliverance was coming. Through the sea. So they deploy creation and the elements to drown him. Now I speak by divine authority to creation. I speak to the sun. That's why David said the sun shall not smite me by day, because the sun is the ruler by day and the moon is the ruler by night. So when the enemy, if you look at Psalm 91, he talks about the terror by night and he talks about the arrow that flies at noonday. So there are specific times and seasons when the enemy operates through times and season. He works by day, he works by night, through the sun, the moon, and the stars. And you can't, we can't be ignorant of the devices of the adversary, lest he gains advantage. We must be well informed of the. Devices of the enemy. Somebody say I hear you. So Jesus was on the other side, coming to set this guy free. Great storm sleeping. The disciples cried out for fear he arose from sleep. He looked at the situation. And said, how dare you not at my watch? How dare you? When I said, let there be light in the beginning, where were you? When I commanded the waters of the air to gather and place an embargo on the waters that you don't go beyond this boundary, where were you? Please be still. And rebuked the wind. And the wind was slayed and fell back, and the waters became steel. And immediately they arrived at the other side. And the first thing that came to him was this man of the gatherings. And the man came to worship him. And he said, What is your name? And they said my name. Is Legion. And the word. Legion means 6000, 6003 thousand horsemen and 3000 footmen. That was the Roman Legion and 6000 demons were embedded in the spirit of one man. Now somebody go to Genesis 49 and 19 and please read it for me quickly. Genesis 4919. Let me show you something. Tell somebody you're carrying heavy cargo, he said. God, a word, a truth, shall overcome him by this award. At last somebody say at. Last. Now, now, see that one minute. Now see that one minute, something is going on here. Somebody say at last. That's why I'm going through it now. But I will emerge victorious at. Last. I will have the upper hand at. Least. I will have the last word. At least I will prevail. At least I will show your ass. Sit down for two minutes. Now let me show you this now. Now go to go to Mark chapter 5 verse one. Somebody read Mark 51. OK, somebody go now to the other side of the sea into the country of war. You see, look at me in the days of David, there was this guy called the Goddies. Say the Goddies and the Bible said their faces were like lion and they were so skillful in battle that they could handle weapons with their left and right hand. These guys were dangerous guys. They were spiritual Rangers and assassins, and they were one. Of the sons of Jacob, and they dwell on this side of the Jordan, and that side of the Jordan in their days was named after them as the land of the Gadars, but in the days of Jesus it was changed to the land of the gatherings. They control more. You see. You know who divided the land? The portion, It was Joshua for all the 12 tribes and God controlled this side of the inheritance and did dwell there. So this guy here was a descendant of Jacob and when Jacob was blessing the 12 tribes, when he came to God through laser discernment and prophetic capabilities, he could see through the DNA of God and watch this the word truth in the original language translated into English that were true. Check it out. Translated from the Hebrew into English. That word troop means legion. So when he said a troop shall overcome him, he was saying that legions would capture one of my descendants but for a moment. But at last he will break free. Say yes. Now go to the 20th verse of Chapter 5 of Mark. Look at the 20th verse and. He what departed and what began to what published in where Dicapolis. That word published means to preach. That is what Bishop is doing. And that word, Dicapoli means 10 regions or 10 cities. And by Bible theologians and history, it's recorded that this guy evangelized, raised megachurches in the capitalist 10 regions. He evangelized all the 10 regions and raised up megachurches. Now watch this. Why lesions assign to hijack and capture one man because of his original assignment. To. Evangelized the capolis. So all the demons in the capolis came together and said, we see a star coming towards us to bring light to this region. Let's go towards that star, capture that star so that that star will never see the light of day and never recover to even know his potential and why he was born. So they captured him and tied him up and imprisoned him. And Jesus had to come from the other side to lose him. And he was, he said, Jesus, I'm going to follow you. And he said no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no. You have an assignment to evangelize the Catholics. So don't follow me. Go your way. Tell the story. Evangelize now. Set the captain free. Do you know why your Bishop went through the things he went through? Do you know why some of you have been through what you've been through? Do you know why some of your churches and branches have suffered? Some of the things you suffered is because of the cargo this ministry is carrying. It's because you are carrying a heavy duty cargo. You are going somewhere and the enemy has listen. Hear me, the enemy knows it. Don't be fooled. When my mother took seed of me, she bled for four months, Doctor Saqua Mante said. Florence, you are anemic, you've lost too much blood. You can't carry this pregnancy. So they perform AD and C on my mother. After months of the DNC her stomach kept growing and they find out that apparently we were twins and the DNC took my brother. My twin brother and I survived the DNC because I have to stand here and talk to you are. You hearing me, somebody? I am not here by accident. I didn't come by mistake. I am here by judicial determination, by executive decision. Lift up your hands and shout the enemy. Don't spend time on people who are not carrying anything. So when you see your Bishop going through crisis, be careful how you judge him. When you see the ministry going through turbulence, be careful because you don't know why the enemy is so interested in this ministry, in this organization. It's because of what you carry. It's because of what you become. You see the Bible says for as many as as many as receive him to them give he power to become. And the Bible says Paul call to be an apostle. So he was called to become an apostle and he wasn't. And potential is not what you have done already, but what you are capable of doing that you haven't yet done. And everybody here is pregnant with potential. You are carrying something, but the only way you realise yours is to help your father fulfill his dream. And when you help him to fulfill his dream, and his mantle comes upon you in his dream, you will see. The vision of your future. Put your hands together, give God praise. Receive the Bishop. Wow, fantastic. Sit down for two minutes. At the. Last we shall overcome. Wow. I believe we have been powerfully blessed by the words of a Father and the words that come from experience. And also there are words of prophecy and predictions because the Bible says that which has been is that we shall be. So when an experienced person is speaking, a lot of the things he's saying are like prophecies, because when you say even that which has been, you're actually saying that which shall be. Is that also Amen. That was. That was just the introduction. You see, you never knew that God became gatherings and a troop and a legion. It's amazing. But, you know, I've also known the Archbishop for many, many years, and I've actually seen a lot of the things that he said happen. Yeah, that said that he had said things that I didn't like what he was saying. True. But I've seen them happening. Yeah. And I've come to learn that he's not only prophesying when he speaks with a certain tone of voice. Sometimes he's prophesying when he's just even saying something or even just making a remark. One day I was in Germany and he called me and I don't even know why he called me, but he he found my number. He was looking for me and he found my number and he called me. I don't know why he was looking for me, but he spoke for about 30 minutes because I was in Germany. And then he started to say things when he was saying them. I was afraid of what he was saying. And I wanted to tell him, don't say that, don't say that. I I watched what he said happen in a in a frightening way. Yeah, but I always remember that phone call because when I hung up, I was wondering why he called me, because he was just airing his feelings. He just called me to say whatever he was feeling. I don't know if he remembers that call, but he wasn't calling to tell me to do something or I should come or something or nothing, but just say what he felt. Hey, that's why I said to you that father, that's all what I was preaching to you earlier on always came when something happened. This one made food for him, this one mocked him, this one defended him. Because when Sham defended his father, that he blessed him. When Jaffet defended his father, he blessed him. When this guy tried to disgrace him, that he spoke. And if it was today, you wouldn't even call it a case. So that you be a server. It's like somebody said you stifle in life, you'll be tired. You'll be tired. It's a comment that that's it. It will change your life. You see that You go to school like, but it will not work. You go to America, you go everywhere. Like he was mentioned. Where do people went? You know, you say you have brought people to America. He has brought people here. He has brought people. Very wicked though, and people don't remember things at all. Yes, you see, actually I was. You know, there was something I wanted to say which just gave me. And when Bishop was speaking, just came to me. I brought a young pastor here to handle some of my churches. One of my churches. He was just struggling in life. Got him a visa, went to the embassy with my signature, and when the counselor saw my name, he saw the Archbishop. He didn't look at anything, just gave him five years. So I brought him here to help with one of our churches where we're having crisis. I made somebody a Bishop. He took over my church using my radio program, thought I was finished. And immediately after he broke away, started his own church and thought I was finished. Gorgeous exalted me bigger. And today I I'm in Ghana. I just spoke to 2 million people on radio yesterday. I don't know if some of you had it or you. You hear Coco Brata. Coco Brata. Corey. Corey is my son. Yeah, he's one of my sons. I'm calling for you to talk to him right now. And and I don't even, I don't want it. And this guy, he was so nice. Then we got him a resident permit so he can handle a new church we wanted to open in America. As soon as Bishop, he got his resident permit. The guy changed when I called him, he wouldn't attend my call. When you call the wife who say he's sleeping, I said then he came to Ghana. He was in Ghana for weeks. He didn't even contacted me. Then I saw him at the premises of the church through my cameras in my office. So I said call me Martin. And I said, hey, how long have you been around? So I've been here for a while. And I said so you won't even come and greet me? He said, oh, I'm just tired, you know, I'm tired. I said, oh, I see you're tired. OK. So he came and got visa for his wife and his kids and everything. He came to see me and he said we've I've sacrificed. I've done a good work. You know, I've suffered. I've sacrificed looking at him and said you what have you sacrificed? Nobody ever bought me a ticket to come to America. Nobody has ever given me a visa. I've never had anybody to buy me a ticket to pay me a dime. Everything you have, we give to you. So what have you suffered? What have you sacrificed? And I didn't see anything. So I see anyway when you get the visa for your family and you are ready to go, come see me. He got the visa for the wife, his children. The wife was pregnant, went to the embassy and they asked the wife are you pregnant? She said no, she lied because she wanted to come and have an American baby. I didn't see anything. So anyway he got his visa. Then I said to him, I hear you've gotten your wife. Everybody's beside. He said yes, when are you going? Said in a month's time. So I said, OK, when it's time, come see me. Went to one of my branches. I saw him there after the service. I was leaving. So he came by my car and I said, Martin, you need to come see me, we need to talk before you go back. He said, do I have to come and see you again? And I said, hey, suddenly you, you can't see me again because you've gotten. So I didn't see anything. I was in London and I heard that he had called the office in America and I've requested that he should send him and his family a ticket for them to come to America. So when I had it, I told the office, I said tell him to contact me and don't send him any ticket. He won't contact me. So I told some of the young pastors who are his friend. I said tell Pastor Martin to please call me. The wife said he's gone to waiting, she can't reach him. Not that time. One of the Bishop called, he was sleeping. So I sent a word. I said tell the wife he has 24 hours to call me and if he doesn't call me I will not be responsible of the outcome of the decision I'm about to make. And he was telling people now he will never queue in his life for a for a visa anymore. So I called the American ambassador and he's a friend of mine. So I called him and I said I want the visa of Martin and the wife permanently terminated. And he said please put it in writing for me. And I did. So I cancelled his visa and the American embassy called him and said that they've been advised by the Archbishop to cancel his visa. So his visa has been cancelled. He can't come back to America. Suddenly he started calling my phone. What a shock. So do you see why God many times sends us what we will call not something that is not a blessing because Lucifer's foundation for his arrogance, he says because of your brightness, once you are becoming bright, a little light is shining from you. Yeah, you are becoming Lucifer. Just a little bit of brightness, walking in the midst of the stones of fire, a little bit of beauty, say because of your beauty, as soon as you become a little posh, a little nice, a little American green card, Visa, what have you, and then it become the foundation. So you see, sometimes you are trying to raise funds and you realize that you don't have anything to give. And you you ask yourself, why wouldn't God give me? Why doesn't God give me? If God was to give you? Look at, I mean, where did you come from? You said, if I have to call you again, do I have to call you again? It's like, is it not enough one person that you honor? Do we have to always honor you? Why? I've honored you. I've served you. I've worked for you for five years. It's OK. What else? This is how people think. This is how people talk. Firstly, you work with him. Yeah, a lot of people who have worked with him have behaved like that. So I hope you will not be like that. True. No, it's true. A lot of people, they start with him. He's taking them. He got them visas. I know one guy. He got visas, took him abroad and he had a church, he had the papers and everything, and he wrote a letter to the Archbishop and told him you have done nothing for me and disconnected. Yeah, Yeah. And I went. I visited the Archbishop in his house in the evening. He has in his house and that house he has, his house has three levels of sitting rooms up, another one down and another one to the side. Hey, sport, change your style. So we were sitting at the upper one and he pointed to the and he pointed to that. That's where he prayed. He was praying at this place. He used to pray here in this room and he lifted up. The wind is against him. And he said one day I will be in this house. They will call me at the security. They say that this pastor has here and I will say to that, release the dogs. You know the story very well, Release the dogs. So one day I went to that country and I saw that pastor. He has gone shopping with his wife. They had come to buy cooking pots, so many things. So I was with one of my pastors. I said this guy who is pushing the trolley, he doesn't know that the wind is against him. And when the wind started to blow, within two years it blew those cooking pots and blew everything away. It sounds funny, but it is real. Yeah I know. Blew away his entire every church was blown. Members were blown, wife was blown, children were blown. Everything visa was blown. Everything was blown away practically by the so-called wings. You are down for father's comments. You are unstable. You will not excel. You are finished, so that is why I will always be teaching you. Try to feel special in terms of your father is different from pastors and teachers. Remember that it will always help you. People who don't like their fathers, they don't do well and whose fathers don't like them, they don't do well. Telling you. And you know, last week, Sunday, I was preaching this same topic, rise and fall. And I said I used this example. I said in all the years that I had Bishop, all those who have gone and said to have seen people. Fall. Through him and also rise. Mostly fall. Mostly fall because most people don't know how to relate with their father. And it's not easy because your father is also a human being. That is God's decision. Amen. So it's a blessing. Our Bishop, we want to say thank you so much for powerful speaking to us. Amen. And you have honored me by coming here. Amen. You, you can sit down 2 minutes. You know, can we just show a couple of DVDs? I think I would, I would like the Archbishop to also see that he hasn't seen some of those. So let's show the 100 million. So that's just a very short one. And then maybe we show one more lights.
