Now when the Holy Spirit is working in your life, are you there? Don't be surprised when you become a pastor because it's one of the great influences of the Spirit to make you a pastor. Tend to act. Chapter 28. Chapter 20, verse 26. Acts 20, verse 26. Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blur of all men. Have you found it? Acts 20, verse 26. The influence of the Holy Spirit on your pastoral. Destiny, Destiny, Destiny. Have you found it? Verse 27 I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God. Take it, therefore to yourselves and to all the flock over which the Holy Ghost hath made you over fears. The Holy Ghost, the Holy Ghost has made you an overseer. This is what the Holy Spirit did when you came under His influence. He turned you into an overseer of the flock. Yeah, yeah, I'm telling. You if you. Stay under the. Influence of the Holy Spirit. That's why I said that, the influence of the Spirit. On your pastoral destiny is like you are destined to be a pastor you are destined over which the Holy Ghost has made you overseers nobody can make you a noise the Holy Spirit makes you a noise oversee oversee when you find yourself overseeing the. Flock. It's something that has come about by the sweet influence of the Spirit. How did I become a pastor? Did anybody ever call me and say you are a pastor? No. I began to oversee. So oversee means you rise up and then you are seen over. How many realize that you are beginning to rise, to see over, over, over, over, over, over, over? I'm sorry, somebody says that if you are in line as you can become, you can become a pastor. Not everybody is going to become a pastor in the church, but you see that some people and they are under the sweet influence of the Spirit and you see that they they seem to be overseeing. Yeah, yes, you see that as the influencer. You just watch the people as they are over flowing with the Spirit and. Flowing with the Holy Spirit and flowing with God, they gradually rise. And start to oversee, start to oversee the flock. Oversee the flock. No, even nobody has to call you by the word. Nobody has to even call you a pastor. You see that you are rising up and you are overseeing the flock. Is it not fantastic? Is it not amazing? Is it not wonderful? Is it not supernatural? This one, you don't need an appointment from a BMTC or an appointment from whatever. Under the influence, the sweet influence of the Spirit, you see that you are gradually rising up and oversea. It's a techie. Be careful, Be careful because it is the sweet influence of the Holy Spirit that made you an overseer. Wow. It's not a step. There's no steps, steps to becoming an overseer. I'm not. There's nothing like that. I'm informing you of something that happens under the influence of the spirit, maybe under the influence of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs and other ethnic. You become a businessman. Do you understand? You become a top executive, you become a millionaire. You become this. You become the but. Under the influence of the Spirit. The Holy Ghost, you first. Realize you have become an overseer of the people. How did I become an overseer? How did I become an overseer in a Chimoto school? I became an overseer. It was the influence of the Holy Spirit. I was having my prior time every day, praying in towns, praying to God, always trying to wait on the Lord and under the influence. Of the Holy Spirit. I found myself overseeing the students who were in the Western compounds. And because of the charismatic, the the manifestation of beauty and grace that was on me, people started to come from the eastern compound to the West, and nobody comes from the east to the West people. The Westerners always go to the east for classes for everything. Those of you who know Achimotas who Chapel everything, the West go to the east, and the Westerners were only four houses. We just come there to sleep and then for classes we go to the east. But I started having, I started having meetings on the western compound, which was not there before. And the charismata, multiple manifestations of grace and mellifluous messages that were coming out, euphonious messages that were coming out started to attract people from the East. And they would. Walk all the way from the east to the West. At 4:00 to come for a meeting in the afternoon. Mellifluous magnetism. Is it fantastic? Is it amazing? Another meaning of the word charisma is rhythmical, rhythmical, rhythmical, rhythmical and it means recurring with measured regularity. You see, you can sing a good song once, but if. It keeps recurring with regularity, then a certain gracefulness has appeared on you because you may have a good day once or the song that maybe pick may be the perfect exact key that your limited voice range can handle. But when it keeps recurring rhythmical, it's one of the meaning of. Graceful, rhythmical, it keeps recurring. Like if there was a good message, but then there's another good message, and then another one and another one and another one. It's rhythmical, it's recurring with regularity. Then there seems to be some grace and beauty that has been given to the person. To keep coming up with such a recurring regular something. Yes. So just the ones as we are having this camp, it's not the first time we have had a Hallows camp. We have had it's recurring, it's recurring. It's coming with regularity from the first time we had Hallows. It's recurring then it's not, it's not. That's why. In golf, for the golf competition, they play four days. It has to be your goodness, your, your, your, your, your ability must happen four times. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, they play. Yes, we you have. To it has to re care rhythmical you have to do it. Well on the first day, well on the second, well on the third day, well on the you can't not re care. It has to re care. So what you are doing that is good, must re care regularly. That's that's, that's so the gracefulness has really appeared and it's like really see, gracefulness has come on you and and a certain a certain beauty, certain niceness, because it wasn't just a fluke. It wasn't just some. Odd thing, it's something that's just happened once on a good day, because everybody signs on a good day. But when there's a gracefulness, even on a bad day, it's rhythmical. It's still coming on a bad day with measured regularity that you have a rhythmical ministry that is recurring with regularity. Wow. Is it not fantastic? Is it not amazing? Is it not supernatural? Is it not wonderful? And you may cook well on a good day. On one day the cooking may work. You yourself are surprised that the Stew is nice. It doesn't mean that you know how to cook. But when it keeps recurring with rhythmical regularity, recurring with measured regularity, then you see that the beautifulness and gracefulness of hospitality has appeared on you. Is it fantastic? Is it amazing? If God has blessed you with special physical beauty, you have a little something, a little extra. Than others have, even on a bad day. You will look good, but there is every bride looks nice on her wedding day because it's a good day. It's a special day. If she's too slim, she will be made to be a little fat looking. They will put cushions at different places, they will pat different places. If she wants her to have a little more breast, they will put something there. So the bridegroom will be looking and say, wow, what a shock. If they want her bottoms to be wider, they have something that they can put there. They'll be swinging like this. Wow. But all are not real. If they want their stomach to be smaller, they have something they would tie. It's called Taekwondo. Taekwondo. It's a good day for her Taekwondo, but all you have to do is wait for the wedding to be over and see if the beautifulness and the gracefulness appears on a rhythmical, regular basis when she's in the house and there's no Taekwondo. Taekwondo Taekwondo. That is why you should be in a relationship for a long time to see whether the niceness is recurring on a regular basis. It's in life on a regular basis. I just come one. Is it rhythmical? I just once you see that you are around and then you see. Oh, hello, hey, charismata. Listen. It is the influence of the Spirit. That makes you into an overseer? Yeah. How many want to be pastors? I mean, just you've thought of it. You've thought of being a pastor. Raise your hand if it was OK to you. I'm like, yeah, you see, it's not normal. It is not normal. Take it from me. I say it's not normal. No, it's an influence. It says take heed to the flock which the Holy Ghost has made you an overseer. So when you are appointed in the church, it's just that the church recognizes what the Holy Ghost has done in your life. The Church recognizes that you have been made an overseer. He has made you an overseer. You are overseeing the people. Is it not fantastic? Is it not amazing? Is it not wonderful? Is it not supernatural? Sometimes I look at myself when I'm pastoring people. I realize how much I love them, how much I care for them, how much I want to do. Something for them and sometimes I just whatever I can do something. One day I met a certain pastor and he said something which occurs to most pastors, but they may not say it what he said. He said it to me privately, But it occurs to a lot of pastors who have been pastoring churches that are there for some time. Because when you pastor a church for some time, you'll see that not everybody gets married, especially the sisters, and not everybody has a child. Now, when I spoke to this pastor, he was telling me about his church and about the different situations in the church. And he said, Bishop, you know, I don't know if I was a Bishop then because it was many years ago. He said, sometimes I just look and I say, I wish I could just marry all of them. I will marry all of them so that they all have a husband. Yeah, yes. I wouldn't mind. Just get all of them and marry all of them. Yeah. So they all have a husband. I'll be, I'll be the husband of all of them. Yeah, that's a pastor. If he loves the, he loves the people. It's it's from God that that that feeling is from God. It's not that he want he wants to have sex with all of these girls. Oh, yeah. He cares for themselves. This one is lonely. This one is alone. This one, nobody cares for her. This one is she's been there. No one has proposed to her. I want to take all of them. And yes, look, you can call me your husband on the occasions that I've had to look after widows when their husbands have died. Oh. Many times I have one dead. What can I do? I want to take the person, give the person back to the person, change the thing that has happened. Look at the person who's lying. They're dead. Don't want to tell the person? One day there was a widow and the husband had just died in an accident and I felt so useless. So I said I didn't know what to do. I took the I took care of my car. I said come with me and I drove around the whole of a car in the night, just drive in talking to me, telling her, talking, talking. I didn't know what to do. I thought so useless. What am I? What is? I have nothing to do. I can't have no power. I didn't know what to say, what to do. See. But you see, it's the pasta. I have my wife in my house. I'm happy crackling. Laughter I put on the TVI Watch Metro. TV. TV three. I'm OK, You're OK. I'm OK. Like I was so sad. So time passed. One day she came to say thank you. For what? Because I was angry with myself. I have not been able to give the husband back to her. Then another. Sister S husband also died suddenly, so once again this widow was with me, was sitting with me. Then I saw this other one who I had taken around five in, five in, five in, five in, five in, five in. Even because of that, there's a particular song. I don't like listening to that song because I was playing that song in my car and she passed by when I said come and she came to save. And so I said, well, this what happened? What has just happened to this sister? I put come, sit, sit. I put my hands around her like that and I was talking and I said what has happened to you has happened to her? What advice? What advice can you give her? Who is walking? Stop walking. She said she just pointed to my, my, my hand. She said The hand that is around you, that is the hand that happened. Yeah. You said the hand that is on your shoulder, that is what will help you. That's what helped me. I was amazed because I thought that I have done nothing. I'm so useless 1/2 now. But you said that the hand that is around your shoulder, that's that is what helped me. I was amazed. Yeah. You see, people don't know the importance of a pastor. The Bible doesn't say that the sheep are scattered because there's no prophet. It says the sheep are scattered because there is no shepherd. Yeah. There's no pastor. Yeah. Are you listening? To me, it's something that is supernatural. The Holy Spirit makes people overseers. It's not natural because your family is. You. Your Wife 123. We are OK. Five of you. Everything is perfect. Crackling laughter in the room, changing of channels of TV stations, eating of food in the room, in the house. Everything is OK, she said. The hand that is I I almost took my SO. Yeah, that is what helped me. I was amazed. You may never know limited so those of you who reject God's calling and invitation for you to be a pastor, you are rejecting a very important thing. A lot of people are waiting and depending on you when they when you will be the pastor and you'll be speaking the words of life and encouraging them. A pastor's main work is encouraging people because most problems have no solutions when you are a young pastor, you. You, you will say. I'm going to kill this this wife. She stopped behaving at camp. She's not behaving well. I'm going to kill. I'm going to kill at the camp, sit down and talk to you and talk you out. But when you grow up as a pastor, when you see that they are not changing, you just say, oh, how are you, sister? It's well, OK. You don't even say anything about the problem. You just live when you are young. I'm killing that thing. You're killing that thing. I asked. You grow yourself. How is it? Oh, you are blessed. You are blessed. You just because you. Realize that most of the problems are not. Being solved. You are managing. Even medically, most problems are not solved every day. Something small, something small. This, this, this. Gradually, gradually, gradually, gradually, gradually, gradually. Until you get there. Yes, management. That's why we call it management. How are you managing this patient, not how are you killing this issue? How are you managing? Is it not amazing? Is it not fantastic, is it not supernatural that somebody will look up to you? Why somebody who also has problems? Somebody who is even struggling with difficulties, now they are saying, please, pastor, what should I do? Is the Holy Ghost who can make you an overseer to see over their lives? Amen, Saddam. Rhythmic out it's. Another meaning beautiful, handsome. Because it means charismatic, means graceful. Beautiful, isn't it? Amen, Amen. Is it amazing? Is it fantastic? Is it supernatural? No. Beautiful. Do you know that even physical beauty is a gift? Yes, how you are physically is a gift. Anything that makes you attractive because you can be beautiful, but you are not attractive. It's not the most beautiful girls who get married because attractiveness is made-up of more than the physical beauty. But the physical beauty is also a gift, and most people misuse physical beauty. Most beautiful girls who are striking have been struck. Should I say it again? Most beautiful girls who are striking. Have been struck so much so that you should pray that if you have a daughter, she will not be very beautiful. Yeah, that's. I'm talking about just the physical aspect because it's a gift as usual. And all these beautiful, these gifts make people misuse them. Yeah. Also, I'm coming to how to find your charismata. Walking into your charismata. Walking straight into your charismata. But if you are, if you are handsome, it's it's part of it. Even even if you are handsome, you are, you are even if you are tall, you are handsome. Where is handsome? Where is where is if he's gone somewhere, OK, handsome, tall, stand out. It's it's a gift. So you will notice that many pastors are like that or some it's it was part of their gift. Because whether you like it or not, people also look at how a person looks. So ladies, your beauty is part of the complex things God was giving you, I'm telling you. Yeah, and it's entirely up to you how you're going. But most misuse it. Most of the people who are giving gifts of singing, they take it to the world. They are giving beauty. They take it to the world. Yeah, you can hardly find a beautiful girl who has not been struck. It's. Unusual to find a beautiful girl who is a virgin. In fact, if you notice the person particularly, you should even be careful of the person, because what is attracting has been attracting a lot of other people too. You are not the first, I said. You are not the first and you may not be the last collar collar on the line. Beautiful girls, is it true? Is there any beautiful girl who wants to testify? It's a very true statement. It's very true. Why? What happened? Tell us because. You're beautiful and you're in the war, so it's not just one person that sees you. A whole lot of people actually do see. So you will not be the 1st and you will not be the last person. So I've been struck in my case, you. Can say I don't appreciate that question. I don't appreciate that person. And you can also say I don't think I want to talk about that. There are different ways. There are different ways of answering the question, yeah, but she may not want to come out of the shadows over here. Maybe if she asks him in chambers. But anyway, feel free so answer. I've given you different ways to answer. Do you want to answer this question? You can answer any of the ways You can say I don't appreciate that question now. I don't think you should ask me that question now. I don't think I can answer that now. I can answer later. I'm not in the position now. I think if you interrupt the preaching or you can answer whatever you want to say. It's. OK, in my case, alright. In my case, it wasn't just outsiders, actually had my cousin. Yeah, my cousin molested me on that case. And besides, I wouldn't outside. I know that I had someone. Me that you have, people have been attracted. Yeah, people have been very attracted to me. And if you are, if you are fair. Yes. Even in Ghana? Yes, in Accra. If you are fair, if you are fair and you stand on the roads in Ghana, people will stop. It's not what inside life There is an inside light about Coco. Let's say you have a light inside. Have you finished answering his question? Yes. Have you finished answering? So. What strikes you has struck others. One lady said I don't want to marry a handsome man. That's what she said. I don't want to marry a. Because a lot of girls like him. There are more testimonies. OK, Sit down. Push next. Beautiful girls. Come here, my dear. Yes. I remember when I was on campus one day I was walking, I went to the there's a place called Science Market and I went to buy something and I was walking to the lecture hall and I met a certain guy. He stopped me and said, oh, I'm very nice. He wants my number and what's my name? And I mentioned my name. Oh, my name is Ernestina. I do this course. And I was like, one thing that he said was that he likes. My legs. Surprise, I like your. Legs it, it, it was, it was amazing. I was amazed. And another time too. Another occasion, somebody was he was looking for directions to a place and I was walking by the roadside. Yeah, one man, one other man. They were in the front seat. I was like, oh, I'm looking for this place. I was like, oh, farm in Kumar Hall is at this side. You're on the wrong Rd. So go back. I was like, oh, I like your voice. It's. It's real. Inside life, it's real. She has an inside life, even angels. The sons of God came down when the son of a woman nephelines, they're brought down to earth. How much a common Christian like you, Yes. Any other beautiful. Are you giving a testimony? Mr. I just remembered, I remember after school, after SSI went for a camp. I was in Calgary Road and then somebody just came to give me a number and when I called the number after the camp, it was a pastor who wanted to marry me. He told. Me that he wanted to marry me and I didn't know who gave me the number and I was very surprised, so it really hurt. So you say, you say the gift to attract. Has. Been given so if you don't use it carefully before you realise you've messed up. You are singing sexy dancing and other songs. You are misusing that gift and maybe your beautiful face was given so that you sing beautiful. Songs so that you do this so that you maybe for maybe for somebody you have presented for somebody. And by the time the president has you, so many people have you seen an apple, so many people have Baker, one piece here, one piece here, one piece here, one piece here. So the apple that is being given to the. Man is look at it, so many bites it's become brown. So I believe Doctor Go, you have a very handsome looking face. Wow. Is he is he not handsome? Can he not be a president? Is he not intelligent? So his voice is his voice fantastic. He said Doctor, Bishop, Doc, PhD, Masters everything radiology specialist all this and he was using all these things to develop Kolibo teaching hospital radiology department. Yes, what a waste of your time and a waste of charismata. So many things God has given you to make you attractive. Yes, and this is supposed to be used for God's work. Yes, they're all part some of the the gifts. You see, God cannot, let's say like, not that He cannot, but He wants to make You Beautiful. Physically he cannot. Like when you are converted, then your face will change, your hips will change, this will change. No, it's not like that. So it starts from the genetic. That's what I'm saying. A lot of gifts or voice or ability to hear. That's where it starts from. So a lot of the people that are using their gift in the way they have had the gift from God. It was part of the the. Calling is before you are born. Pre testing for knowledge. It's a plan. So all intelligence, all leadership abilities, all capabilities, everything is thoughts, gifts. It's all the things that makes you nice, anything that Makes You Beautiful and graceful. Yes, your face. One day I watched a certain film. In that film there was a certain house. In that house there were certain women, and these women, all of them were prostitutes. That was the work. That they they they did was positive. Then a certain man came and he chose one of them and he said I want you. So he chose the one of the ladies and he went to the room with her when he was in the room. This is an experienced veteran sexist. So when the man started to do whatever he was there to do, she started laughing at him. She she made a comment and she started laughing at Moizado. This is looks like a small boy or some kind of whatever. Yeah. No face or what? So she she she laughed. At she laughed at him and when she laughed at him the man got angry and he took a knife and started fighting, beating the lady and when he took the knife he cut her face like that. So the whole film was about what happened after that, because they they came upstairs and they took the man out. He wore his clothes and he went, he was very bored. Now the women, they, that was the whole story. They said that the guy must pay for, but he has done. Why they said that now nobody would like the girl again because she has scars on her face, she cannot work, she has no job. She's not, she has lost. She's just like what she has been given by God that she was misusing is now gone. So they, the whole film was about how they went after the women went to hire somebody to follow that guy at where he was. They want to pay and to kill him. Yeah. They never, never, never forgive the guy to the end. And you see that? That shows you something like that. Your even your appearance is like what you have. Oh, So what you have, what you look like. Your colour is from God. Wow. The colour is something that God has given to you. Your, your appearance, your abilities is all part of the beauty and the gracefulness God has given to you. And for some maybe God has given more. But then he has given you another aspect, maybe hospitality, which makes you even more of. The way you. Talk or some other aspect of you that is also a charismatic because you can see different things. Ministering, serving. When people said, look, many years ago I had AI had a man called Uncle James. He told me, he said, As for me, I don't have any female house help in my house. I said why? He was advising. He said no, no, no, there's no female house help. I said why? He said because service is beautiful. So I said what do you mean by service is beautiful? He said anybody who serves you will be beautiful to you. Anybody who serves you will be nice to you because service is beautiful. It's it's a beautiful. That's why I say he that ministry. It's part of the charisma. It's mentioned as one of the manifestations of gracefulness and beauty. Serving. Yeah. That's why many people marry nurses. Because anybody who deaths you and ministries to you, you will love the person. You will like the person. Service is beautiful. That's what he told me. Service is beautiful. So maybe you may not have that face so much, but then you have ability to serve or ability to do something. It's also part because you see beauty. That's why our Miss Malaika here was telling that they didn't just look at her hips, measurement and all these. They also look at what was in her and how she thought and how she spoke and the answers to her intelligence. It all adds up to the beautifulness and the and I use the word dutifulness. Not that I don't know that I use the word beauty, but in terms of letting you understand that it's beautifulness excuse. Me please let me use my word freely. And and and and gracefulness, gracefulness that is given to you, all those things that make you attractive. Yeah. So some of you are buried. What God has given to you, you don't know, but some of you maybe you may be beautiful. But in terms of, I mean, let's face it, everybody is different there. There are different levels of everything. If you take music, some people have more or less different, so this or this, this or that. But you see all things work together. So you may not have that extreme attractiveness, which may be very good because it has also protected you from a certain striking force. A Delta Force has not been able to take you on after now. Are you there? You are going home, but you have something. Else that when it's added and a third one is added, you are so nice. That's why Uncle James told me. He said service is beautiful. It Makes You Beautiful and nice. It's. True. As for me, I will say let go whatever charismatic God has given you he that ministereth. If there's God has given you something to minister, just do it or help you help you help the you help somebody. The person will like you. The person I like all the people that helped me. I like them very much. They are attractive to me. Anybody who helps me, the person is attractive to me. I have noticed it. In fact, I have noticed it. Yeah. The fact that you do nothing for me it. Removes. A certain whole quantity of attraction. That's why I'm not just allowing anybody to serve me. I don't want anybody to serve me. In fact, many times I clamp my stomach up when I go to. I try to serve me. I don't want them to serve me. I don't want. I don't want their service. Yeah, because service is beautiful. That's why when you marry now, you stop serving. So you have to remove a section of your beauty and you have let somebody to be serving. I have left it for somebody to be serving. Why are you there? And you don't serve anything? Somebody should cook, somebody should serve. It's like you there. You have detached yourself again. I guess you don't know anything. You don't know Nero, You don't know Nero. What is left of you? What is left of your attraction? What is left of you? Come here, my dear, Come here, you. What is left of you? This is what is left of you. This is what? Is left of you. All I have is this. What is left of you? This is all that is left of you. Oh. It's what? Red, red mate. Do it again. Regularity, rhythmic. What is left? Only this and after you have seen it 100 times, you have left. Serving. This one is serving this one is ministering. Come ministering all that this one is talking. Yeah, this one quarter of the beauty. All you have is this one. What is left of you? This one is cooking. Where the cooking one come? This one is cooking. You are doing what? Serving? This one is cooking. This one is serving. This one is what? Ministry? This one is talking and this one is standing on the side. Where is she? Come, Cadella. She's standing on the side waiting to minister sex. If possible. She's waiting to minister sex. Move back. She's waiting, she's waiting, she's waiting with her equipment, with gadgets. She's got the gadget. What's left of you? Look at this Ghana girl, what's left of her? And this one is ready to go swimming. And when someone is ready to go swimming, swimming. And this one is going mountain climbing. Come on. No, this one, this one, we are going mountain climbing what is left of you, and this one is ready to be spiritual. Share the words. This one, she's just waiting. She's waiting in the saddle. If possible, she's licking her lips. Do your hair again regularity. Is that fantastic? Is that amazing? Is that wonderful? Is that supernatural? So your beauty, you see all these you are doing what? Cooking. Seven serving ministry. Ministry talking. Talking. Swimming. Mountain. Climbing. Mountain climbing. Trying to be spiritual. Yes, you're sharing the world. I'm sharing the world. Sharing the world all these are making attraction and stand by stand by vagina what is left of you. So I am experiencing the reason why. I'm saying all this is that I want you to know that many things make you attractive. So in the ministry, don't look at only one thing. There are many, many things that make the attraction. That's why there are so many things. Listen me, that ministry, he that helps, he that serves, he that shows mercy, he that does this so many different things because you are just you want to just maintain just this, just your hair. And for even for a man, the ministry to a man, all these are going to come together, move away so we can see the ministry. Let's say you are going to marry. You are going to not be as a husband. Is the man who is marrying all these are attractive to him. He needs beautiful whatever. And what do you what? What can you do for him? Cooking. And what are you serving? Serving. Ministry. Talking. Swimming. Mountain climbing. Sharing the web. So this is standby. She's just waiting. And then do do your style again. Do your style again. Regularity. Wow, is it not amazing? So even you, a human being who has come to this world, you need so many gifts and beautiful things. To even keep you so in the same way the congregation they need so. Many gifts to work together. That's why in a church you need the beautifulness of the singing, the gracefulness of acting, gracefulness of worship, please. All those gifts. Go together to make the whole ministry work. And that's why you are all very important. See that the television sidewalk, the radio sidewalk, this sidewalk, every area it's working greeters, ashes this they. All make the beauty. And you can't just charm us with this. Do it again, Do it again. Listen, is it lovely? It's lovely, lovely, very lovely. It's very lovely. But you also need some food, don't you? All these other people are going to give you. What a shock, Saddam. Steps to Charismata. How many want to step into your multiple manifestations of? God's grace. Step #1 Romans chapter 12. Step one. Present your body. Present your body now. If you do not present yourself at this camp, how can you receive the charismata? You are not here. If not, the physical human being is somewhere in Accra. The physical body is in Kumansi instead of being here at this time. So availability is the. First key. To people developing and moving into the graces and the charisma that God has, it's just availability. People who are available develop those graces. I've never seen anybody who does well, enters the ministry, goes far without being presenting himself. So that's why we say they'll mention your name so and so present. Present, present, present absent, present, present. You know, the first step is to be present in the cloud before even we even look at that to see whether. We should even pass you in the at the end of the day. Were you present? Did you come at all? Attendance. Present No, Present absent. Was he at the camp? Was he not at the camp? Was he at the camp? How many camps has he been? How many have you attended? Have you attended the camp before? Present absent, Present, Present, present Present Absent. Present Absent Present, Present absent. Present, Present, Present, Present, Present. By your presence and by this present we know so much about you. We don't even care what you, what you ever learnt, or whether you had anything, but that you were present. Present your body physically. That is why for me, you see in the past in the ABMTC before they developed certain things, the one of the main criteria I used to appoint process was that they were present. Many of you I. Can appoint you as process myself, I don't need any ABMTC and I just and I appoint you mostly by whether you are present or not and I will be right. Most of those people that those people don't give problems. It's other people who have not been appointed that way who give a lot of who have given a lot of problems as pastors. Most of the people that are appointed myself using those criteria whether the person is present or not. Yeah, if I look at the stars, I assess them. I don't know. I don't know how many of them will do well in the future, how many of them will whatever, because it's not everybody who has that. You can see that there's a sign of something. Is that a sign? And whether it will go further or to go far, one of the ways, you know, either the person will be present. You remember there were three of you singing well, right? You and somebody and somebody. And Frida. Yeah, there were three. I remember I noticed 3 voices and actually one was better than one, one was better than Ida. Oh yeah, there are many people have singing it better than her. But that's what I'm saying, that it's not just because if you see the guy, even the guy who got married, come back. Where's the guy who was getting married here, the guy who was standing here, We don't have guys come quickly arrive and all those who are ministering to him arrive here, quickly arrive and stand by him. Got all these ministering to you? No you, you are not. You are. You are not included there. You are. I mean all these and maybe I can see that you know one of them is there, but you may. You may need. All these different ones to develop, all these different ones for it to be a complete package, Yeah. So I don't know, maybe you just see the initial first one, but is it going to get all the others and add them all together? But it's not. Just a good voice, a good character, like the stars. If you are, you are a star. You are not, for instance, at this camp. To me, I wouldn't consider you to be somebody who is serious again. Oh yeah. I wouldn't. I wouldn't at all. No matter how good you are at singing. Present your body. Present your body and be there. It has always been our number one criteria, whether you are present or not. Was he there? Is he there? Are they there? Is she there? It has always been the criteria that we use, always. Is he there? Was he there? Even the fact that somebody wants to be there is a criteria that even he wants to come is a criteria has always been. Has always been step #1. Present yourself there physically. So yes, you develop this one side here. Do it for us, Do it for us. Isn't she that beautiful? You still need. What are you going to do? Who can ministry swimming talking? Why do we need swimming? Because when we go, when we go swimming. When we are on holiday. We go swimming, you can't go, you can't go. You stay in the house cooking and eating, eating will even cook, sleeping, going to do your hair and going to buy something to show off on Sunday. Watching Nigerian movies, chatting on the phone. When we needed you by the beach to swim, we wanted to swim with them, hold you in the water. We wanted to lie under the coconut tree on the beach with you. How many brothers would lie to lie under a coconut tree with your wife? Is it not an imagination which is acceptable to love this Ghana girl? You will see none of them will be ready to go to the business. I'm afraid They put a one leg in the water. It's cold, it's cold. My hair. Adjust up my hair, my leg will get wet. When we that was our imagination. We had that imagination, fantasies under the coconut tree, under the palm tree. We have imagined laying a match there and lying there and drinking some cool Pepsi on the coaster with a straw to make it fly with the salad that you have cooked, that you didn't cook. You said there's nowhere to cook and there's no meat, no gas. Oh, boy. All gala girls. What is less of you? Oh. Is left of you what is left of you Tossing back your head. Tossing back your head. You won't even cook. You won't even said you won't be Mr. You won't go and swim. You won't even talk. You won't say the words. You won't go cycling. Oh God, oh God, oh God, oh God. Watch the steps of you. Watch the steps of you 5% so only 5% only 2% only do your hair only buying dresses only showing off only toy your mobile 1st. Sit down. Oh, gonna go. That is why I am not just interested in having pastors. I want all the other multiple manifestations of grace and beautifulness. I need music, guy Pastor, you need music. You need people singing. It's nice. It's one of the beautiful things. You need dancing. See those guys who danced yesterday, man, It's it's fantastic. I I received a text. From. Bishop Joel. He was in America. It's in America, but he came to the carnival and he sent me a text. Yesterday. I was preaching and I saw that he had sent me a text. What did he say? Behaving like a Ghana girl. Yeah. I am constantly playing back the carnival experience. I think it is the most beautiful programme you see. You use the word beautiful. Yeah, word charis. We have 3 words, Charis, Charisma, charismata. I think it is the most beautiful programme with a great future. I'm trying to have one like that here. The stars really warn my heart. Great Perspicacity has selected them. Great Perspicacity has selected them. Do you understand Perspicacity? What is Perspicacity? Check it up. Oh, Ghana girls. OK, I was giving you steps to your gifts, isn't it? Step 1 is what step to your charismata. Stepping into the charismata presents your body #2A living sacrifice. A continuous sacrifice is the next step towards entering your charismata, a living sacrifice. First of all, you present yourself. Do you understand? Then continually sacrificing, continually sacrifice. You will not only sacrifice at the beginning, you will not only sacrifice when you are preparing. If you are going to sing while you continually sacrifice. If you are going to preach while you continually sacrifice, I'm, I'm sacrificing in order to continue coming up with a regular recurring rhythmical preaching. Yeah. Oh, you don't think so? What I'm sharing with you does. It look like just, I'm just, yeah, yeah, I didn't just arrive here and I'm just walking around. Yeah, yes. It looks accidental. It looks natural. The prison looks natural. Yeah. But the delivery is well prepared. Well, prepared, yeah. Smooth, huh? Mellifluous Phonyos. Phonyos. Fluid. It's a flow. Entering your charismata will require continual tell that you get that not only four years of sacrifice if you're going to flow. With all these wonderful gifts around you, you're not going to sacrifice only at the beginning, but when you are a student, you're going to sacrifice all the time. Yeah, it's going to be. It's going to be all your life. It's living. It's living, it's living. You can't say, oh, I'm, I'm now trying to learn a song. You learn all till you die. You will practice, you will learn technology. You have to learn technology, you have to learn softwares, you have to do things, you have to pray, you have to fight all the time, all the time. It's a living. God calls us to a living sacrifice. So present yourself. Is the first one being present? Yes, and then a living sacrifice, sacrifice which is continuous. What do you think? So when you are working for Tegel, you have to continue to sacrifice when you get married. You will continue to sacrifice when you have a child. Awesome. That's when we even start to separate the sheep from the goats. That's where you separate the boys from the men. A. Lot of you ladies sitting here shouting what is left of you, what is left of you, what is left of you do. You have a child. Do you have? So you are jumping. Jumping. Keep jumping. Rarely will you find people with children jumping here. Is there anybody around here? What's a child? No, I mean a woman. OK. So Lou and Ida. Yeah. She's still producing. Is it not amazing? Lou was just like you. Just like you. One of you in the school. I saw her. I used to come. She was the chief elder. She was the chief elder to come around. She was the chief. Is it not true? Huh. Yeah. She was the chief elder. She was the chief elder on campus. It's true. It's very. You didn't know that you were the Chief Elder. Continuous. It's living. This advice is continuing. She's present. Still present. Present. Wow. And she has children. Wow. Is it not amazing? Is it not fantastico what is left of you #3 holiness? Holiness which is acceptable to God? Holiness which is acceptable to God. Now to God. It's where Your Holiness must go, and I'm going to talk about the sweet influence of the Holy Spirit on your ability to be holy. So I'm not going to talk about it now, but the sweet influence of the Spirit, the steps to the charismata is one of them. Is Holiness now Holiness that is acceptable to God? Let me just talk about being acceptable to God. See, men may praise you, men may like you, men may approve of you, but at the end of the day, at the end of the day, the holiness must be in front of God. One of the best places to find God is when you are alone or when you are not. Under the view of the public, you can more easily know that you are before God. But As for looking good to people, it's not so difficult, isn't it true? So Holiness, acceptable to God, you want to be a great singer, you've got to be holy now, Holiness. We shall go into that later on the next one number four step. 4. Is reasonable service reasonable service? You see, there is something that is reasonable that is to be expected from you when you are a student. And there's some reasonable service to be expected from you when you are a student who is doing exams. And there is some reasonable service, which is to be expected from a student who is not doing exams, not exam time. So sometimes you look at people and you realize that it's not even exam time, nowhere near exam time, and they don't give reasonable service at a reasonable, reasonable activity level. Not even extreme, just reasonable service is required on the steps to the charismata. So when you see reasonable quiet time, no quiet time, prayer time, no prayer time, nothing comes forth from you that is even basic and reasonable. As a Christian, attendance of church, you understand attendance of basic camps and the reasonable involvement, Yes. Maybe you have got an exam on Sunday morning, OK, at 11:00 and the church service is at 7 to 9 and you decide that you are not coming to church on Sunday. It's reasonable to me. It's reasonable because you got an exam at 11 and you are learning. It's just once that you do the exam, you are learning from 7:00 to 9:00. So instead of that Sunday I will not come. It's reasonable you see, but let's say 3 weeks to time, you don't come to church, you don't come to church every Sunday but the next week because it's exam is coming in three weeks time. It's not reasonable. So many, many people don't give God reasonable service. They do not give God reasonable service. The service they give God is unreasonable. Do you know why Romans chapter 12 OK is? The culmination of Romans chapter 1 to 11. Romans chapter 1 to 8 speaks about the law and how the grace of God has come and how God has delivered us from the law. Verse 1, chapter 1 to verse 8 chapter 1 to chapter 8. Then chapter 910 and 11 speak about how this same grace has been applied to the Jews. You see, are you understanding what I'm saying? Because then he talks about I wish my own people would be saved and he talks about how the old tree is being grafted to the new one and all that. Has to do with the Jews. Then he comes to the word. Therefore, therefore in chapter 12, and there's one therefore it's like in the light of all that God has done for Gentiles in chapter 1 to 8 and for Jews in chapter 910 and 11, and how the free gift of God is eternal life and all that is good. They say, therefore, my beloved brethren, yes, therefore, my beloved brethren, Hallelujah. We must now present our bodies a living sacrifice which is reasonable in the light of all that God has done from chapter 1 to verse chapter 8 and chapter 9:10 and 11:00. I do you understand? I beseech you therefore, brethren, that's why that word is therefore is because of all that he has said up to now. That is what therefore is. Therefore are you there, or you are going home. Therefore, therefore I beseech you, therefore that present just be present and have a sacrifice either not only today, living sacrifice, then holy. You don't understand the word holy. When we talk about holy, I'll show you, but most of you think holies do not fornicate, but God, God doesn't fornicate, but the God says holy, holy, holy. Holy doesn't say God doesn't fornicate. God doesn't fornicate. Holiness has very little to do with fornication. Are you there? You are going home, therefore reasonable. So anybody who doesn't have reasonable service, you are not likely to get into the charismatic in multiple manifestations because you are not even reasonable in your Christian service. Just forget about being a missionary or going to that basic reasonable service. Without reasonable service, you're not going to amount to anything. You can sing better than everybody, but actually it's just a matter of time. You're out. I condemn you to being a Tigo there forever. How many steps do you have? Please? I'm giving you 4 #5. Do not be. Conformed to the world. How can anybody develop and move? This is the point at which people start company. You want to be in the world I want to be for God. You want to be like the world? I want to be for God. Caleb, are you doing what I'm saying? You want to be for God or for the world? Which one? And who do you want to be like? Do I want to be like Bill Gates? Do I want to be like Steve Jobs? Don't want to be like any of these people. Or do I want to be for the Lord? Do you want to sing like the world? You want the world to have a crossover appeal to the world? What do you want? I want not to be. In fact, you must also decide, no, I don't want to be like the world. That's what I don't want to be like them. I don't like to be like them. Is it amazing? Is it fantastic? Is it wonderful? Wow. Then now that you are not being like the world. OK. Are you there? Is your tea break ready? What are we having for tea break? Cornish pasties? Wow. And what juice? Wow, how many want some Cornish pasties and some juice? Huh, Dana? Boys don't like Cornish pasties and the Ghana girls don't know how to make it. They don't know how to make anything. It's a shame. The next one, the next step. Step number. 6. Renew your mind. Your mind always needs to be renewed. Amen. Wow. I think I feel some tiredness. So I think maybe I should stop on this step. This is step number. What 76? Renew your mind. I think that maybe if we stop here after the Cornish pasties, they are going to be stronger. Will it be a little stronger? Do you want to eat your dinner early today? What are we eating for dinner today? Come and sing it for me, my dear. You see, having somebody who can sing a song about jalop makes the camp more graceful and more beautifulness. I'm rushing home from work feeling kinda hungry. Check my account. I need myself some money. Credit's gonna run. So I caught up my Mama, I said Mama, what's for dinner? And she said.
