12. 100 Reasons For Soul Winning

Welcome to track #12 of tell them. Father, thank you for this opportunity in Jesus name, Amen. You may be seated. 37 You must be a soul winner so that you will become one of the stars who will shine forever. Hallelujah, Daniel chapter 12 verse 3. We have 63 more reasons to go. This is number 36. No, no #30 OK #36 is allow the Lord to send you out to win souls so that you will not be sent out by persecution or other troubles. That is number 36, all right. Like in the book of Acts, the people of God writes, the people of God were sent out by persecution, People of God were sent out by persecution. OK #37 you must be a song winner so that you become one of the stars who will shine forever. Hallelujah. How many want to be a star who will shine forever? I remember when my little sisters were much younger, one of their stars was Michael Jackson. How many years did he shine for? It was a short shine, isn't it? Shining was very short. I remember when Abedipilli was a star in Ghana. Do you remember Abedipilli? Huh. It was a star in the whole of Africa. Yeah. I remember Pele when Pele was a star. Maradona, how long did these stars shine for? Few days, few months? Do you see like a flower that fades? Amen. Bats, Daniel 12/3 says that they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament, and they that turn many to righteousness shall shine as the stars forever and ever. Wow. There is there is no promise like this one, but somebody who tends many people to righteousness will shine like the stars forever and ever. One time I was coming home to Ghana and I was on the flight with a football star, Tony Ebois. When I saw him, I, I was wondering, is this person, the shine was gone. So I, I was, I, as I, I chatted with him for a while, you know, when I, and I asked him some questions. So I said, because I think Ghana had played or Ghana had played or Ghana was going to play in the World Cup. No, we had just played. So I asked him, couldn't you have played and yourself and Abedy Pele? Couldn't you have played for us so that we could have scored Brazil? Because our main problem was that we couldn't score the goals. We had attackers who could run, run, making everybody tired, but they couldn't score, he said. If they have asked us, we could have also done what we could have. So I asked him. I said I asked him a question. Is it true that when you get older you can't really play? He said, oh, it's true. I said, how do you know? He said at a point you see that the shots are not going straight. He said that the accuracy, The thing is different. He said there's a difference. It's displayed, but at a point you see that there's a difference. The brightness of the stars is just coming down. Such a few years. Hey, I said really, I never knew because I I don't know much about football. But he said you can see that it's like you shoot and it's like it would have some time ago it would have gone straight, but now it doesn't go straight. Something little has changed. Yeah, something little has changed. Amen. And you realize that you are just not the same. But there is a promise for all of you who never made television headlines. Are you glad that there is a promise for you? He says you shall shine as the stars forever and forever. And who, who, who will shine? Somebody who tends people to righteousness. That's the person who and then say those who give to the poor. It didn't say those who pray a lot, it is those who fast a lot. You see, that's what I'm saying, that there are many things you can do for somebody, but there is a particular thing when you do for the person. You'll find out that you've touched the person's hearts. You've really touched a very tender area. For instance, there are things that offend people, like with me, there are some things I don't like, you know, but you wouldn't know what I don't like. You can't easily know what I don't like, but there's something that puts me off and as soon as I smell that thing, I, I, I, I, I, I, it's, but it's, you can't easily know what it is, you see, because people are difficult to know, you know, and, but you see, in this case, God is showing us what when you do, you sort of touch the actual nerve, you know, on your body. Some parts are sensitive, but some parts are more sensitive. When you are going to get married, you'll be taught from the marriage book which places have feelings or you don't understand the message. You are not married, but you know already forgive from one or two experiences. I know 200 experiences. And on your body there may be one or two places that have a certain sensitivity. And the reason why it has a sensitivity is because there's a lot of nerve endings there. You know, you have nerves. If everybody feel under your your elbow, they left the inner side, you see the bone there and then feel and I do feel something like a cord rabbit. That's a big nerve. That's the outer nerve. It's going. That's what gives supplies all this left side here. And when it gets to the end, it comes out onto your fingers. It distributes very small. And so there are some places where a big nerve lies when it comes, there's a lot of nerves that accumulate at a particular point and makes that place sensitive. You get it. So the body has some particular places where a lot of nerves. This is one of the nerves there you can actually feel a nerve come to. And God also has a spot that his nerves come to. And that's so winning. Hey, not prayer, not fasting, not get togethers, not giving to the poor, given to church, paint tithes, all these things, and they're all important and they must all began. They're all very good. And you can have 100 scriptures for each one. But you have this particular thing that you see that the person who can tend people to righteousness is a special person who God likes. May you be liked by the Lord, Amen. All right #38 you must be a soul winner, so that you will be invited to dinner at the Tree of Life. He that hath an ear, Revelation chapter 2, verse seven. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith. And to the churches to him that overcometh will I give to each of the tree of life which is in the midst of the Paradise to God Amen. Revelations chapter 2 you can open to Revelations chapter 2, verse 7. Him that overcometh, Him that overcometh. When you overcome in this world and you are look for me to be an evangelist. How many of you watched the DVD last night? You know that I've had to overcome many things to stand on that platform for many, many years in the ministry and there's still a platform for me to stand on. One day I had a vision. I was coming onto a stage to preach and I was coming from behind. The stage was in front of me and just as I climbed the stage, I met some beans which started to fight with me to prevent me from coming onto the stage. But I couldn't see what was ahead, what was. I couldn't see the field, the people. So I realized I was being resisted and I started to fight. And then I broke through and I came onto the stage and I saw the crowd beyond where my eye could see. And the Lord told me the devil is fighting to prevent you from seeing something. To ever stand on a stage like that, to preach at a crusade, you have to overcome many things. As a pastor, this, that, financial, whatever. I mean, to be able to have to be able to not go to a church on a Sunday morning because on Sunday I don't belong to any particular church and my church is the Kodesh. But on Sunday morning, if I'm not here, I can be here or there anywhere I can choose. Do you get it or you don't get it? You have to overcome so many things, branches, disloyalty. There's so many things you think about the work you are doing. You have to overcome so much before you ever become an evangelist. That's why there are few evangelists. Then him uses $1.8 million every five days to run his ministry 12345 Monday, Tuesday where the $1.8 million, that's how much he used. I didn't say he said it. You need to overcome a lot of things to raise such amounts of money to, to do the kind of work that they are doing in television everywhere and crusades and so on. Our crusades cost more than $100,000 for one. You need to overcome a lot to raise that fund on Bonkies Crusade costs about 720. It's on their website. You can see 700 and something $1000 for one crusade. So ours, ours is still very cheap, about $130,000 to do a crusade. It's cheap. It's one of the cheapest crusades. So he that over Kameth, he'll be invited to eat of the tree of Life. How many know that it's a privilege to be invited to dinner, huh? Has it happened to you before where there's a dinner you were not invited and then there was a dinner where you were invited? You, you. You sense the privilege? Yeah. You feel special. And when we get to heaven, some people will be. It's time for dinner and they'll be calling you, You, you. You. No, not you. Not you, not you. Come, let's go. We're going to eat dinner to eat on the tree of life. Hey, I remember some years ago I went to Korea my first time or second time and I was invited. Miss Lee came to me and said, Doctor Cho, inviting you for the board dinner, you're not a board member, but inviting you as a special guest. I said me, it couldn't be then who, but it was me number 2. So I went. I'd never been for everybody in suit tie that suit dinner in the highest high class hotel in Seoul, Korea. So when we enter the place, first when you come to service, you know, I mean, drinks, snow, champagne drinks, different cocktails will all be standing there. Then they open a door and you go into where the tables are where there. And so you, you, you'll be there. And it's like, where do you sit? So we're just standing there wondering what was going to happen next. And then suddenly a short Korean man, a billionaire, a billionaire who works for Doctor Chu, you know, it doesn't work for him. He works with him. He helps him. He told me my aim is to just help Doctor Chu. Whatever dream he has, I pay. I pay for it. So this man came to come and said, come. Doctor Chu says you come and sit by him. Hey, I was invited. So I I told my wife come to school. So we went and we sat there, you know, and then he was just talking, talking with us. I was sitting by and they were serving, I think, Korean food. I tell you, if you have not been sent, you cannot easily eat that food. But what saved us was that the waiters come after everything they put. They come about 8 or 9 or 10 times. They put something there, then they'll leave it with you. Then it's mostly small, then they'll come, they'll take it out, they'll bring another thing. So by the time 1 wasn't finishing, but you see, I was fried by Doctor Chu, who was eating the Korean things with Glee and strength. But I tell you, it's, it's there's a feeling to be invited. Come, come sit with me. First of all to be invited to the dinner, then to be asked. So you, you want so many to righteousness, you know, come, come and sit by the Lord, Hey, forever and ever. I, I, I want you to be a soul winner. How many want to be soul winners? Yeah, you, you must use your life to help people to come to God. Even if you have bad feelings, How many have bad feelings? Are the bad feelings come in sometimes. Don't worry. That's why I came here to assure you that those bad feelings, we've all been having them. Elijah was #1 a man of like passions, just like you and just like me. Geraldine, is it not true? It is true or it is not true? Yes. So all those bad feelings you still have to preach. And I see you being invited #39 you must be a soul winner so that you will be invited to the royal family divided by the royal family, or to the royal family of heaven to join the royal family. I know you don't understand this one. I said to join the royal family. What is a royal family? In England? They have the royal family, isn't it? Who are the royal family? Prince Charles? Princess Diana was a nursery school teacher and she was invited to become a member of the royal family. Right now, how do you get invited to join? When we get to heaven, all these things are there. You see that there are there are people who are part of the royal family and those people who are part of the royal family are kings, Queens, princesses, Princess. And the characteristic of a Prince, a Princess or queen or king is that they wear crowns. Now, not all of us are going to wear crowns. Some people are going to be giving crowns. And as soon as you are giving the crown, you are in a different category because we're a crown, You are a king, you are a queen, you are reigning. It's one of the clear rewards. So suddenly, Bussola, you find out that wow, you are part of the, I mean, not the royal family of the biggest Nigerian chief. What is his name? Igue is that the name of the Nigerian chief? Igue Every chief is Igue all. There are Santihini in Ghana. The biggest chief is that Santihini. One day I was looking for one of my pastors and I couldn't find him. He disappeared. So I was in and they checked where somebody brought a newspaper and said look at pasta so and so. I said where is he? And they showed me the picture of the chief and who was standing with the chief also wearing the cloth and with all the royal people, my pasta, who was missing. I didn't know that he was part of the royal family. I didn't know he's a member. And that was one of the reasons why he had disappeared. I see you joining the royal family. You'll be passing by those king, King Kaohelu, Princess Zama, and they call them here. You have to learn all the practice. Start practicing now how to be, how to walk. Yes, you have to walk as if there's an egg on your head like that. My wife's school, they teach them to walk, like walk as if there's something in your head how to sit. You can't sit anyhow when you're a Princess. Just throw your legs anywhere. Be faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life. Hallelujah. Sing me one of those songs quickly #40 You must be a soul winner so that you will escape damage at the second death. The damage of the second death. Revelations chapter 2, verse 11. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. He that overcometh shall not be heard of the second death. The second death is going to be a terrible experience for some people. At your judgment, you may die the second time. The second death you see, going from here to attend will be a terrible experience for some people, but may it never be a terrible experience for you. In the name of Jesus, may it be a good experience for you. I said may it be a good experience for you. I met a brother who went to America and he said I wish I hadn't come here. Going to America was a bad experience for him. I've seen people who've gone to places and it it ended up being a bad experience for them. But there are people who go to places and it turned out to be a good experience. May your entrance into heaven be a good experience. May you enter with joy. May you never, may you never be hurt by the second death. May you never experience damage or heads at the second death. The Bible says if any man's work shall be banned, he shall suffer loss, but he himself shall be saved yet so as by fire some people are going to enter heaven naked. They will be saved, but they will be saved like somebody who's been saved through fire. What does it mean if you are saved through fire? If you are saved, you run out with nothing, with your pajamas, or if they're necessary, naked fire will bend the pajamas. You're supposed to take off everything and run out. Yeah, yeah. So when you are safe to fire, briefcase is bent, your DVD player is bent, your hair is bent, your body is bent, everything is bent. And you come out and you stand out and you look at the house. My furniture that I bought at Pick and Pay, Hey, my new dress that I bought at Pick and Pay, all the things that I have, they're all burning. And here I am with nothing. I know a certain lady. She was, she was killed and they bent her. Her son was telling me when they took my mother, when I went to the Montreal, saw my mother, she said she did, she did. She bent. Her hair was bent off. Everything was bent off. And she was lying there. She, she, she, they rescued the body from the fire. Even the hair was gone. You get it? So to go to heaven just bare, you couldn't take anything with you. Is salvation all right? But you may not be so happy with your salvation. You managed to escape, you managed to enter, but there is something you lost. That's why I said you will not be hurt by the second death. So don't be saved as by fire. You just scrape through. No shoes, no credit cards, no money, no addresses, no documents, maybe even own a House of the documents have been bent. Everything is gone. That's that's a salvation through fire. But I want you to enter a heaven in grandstand with things. How many want to go with things? One of my friends, the doctor, my classmate, he lived in England for some years. He bought a nice BMW. One day he took me for a ride in his BMW. It was like an aeroplane. I enjoyed the ride. A car that I don't like at all is BMW, but I enjoyed that ride. So he was telling me, you know, I'm going to America. I said, wow. We got to his house. He had a nice sound system. He put it on with the remote. Then he started playing. We had nice chest. I sat on the chest, very soft. He had a nice house. So I said when are you going? He said, oh, in a few months. So I said, what are you going to do with me? Nice chairs, I can't take it. Sound system. I can't take it because in America they used 110 volts. They used 220 volts. So what about your nice BMW? He said I want to, I can't take it because they drive on the left in England and they drive on the right in America. So as he was going into America, he was going just naked. Then also his certificates that he brought from England, they didn't accept it in America, so he has to leave that one and go and start all over again. So even from England to America, he was saved by fire. How much more going to heaven? What are you going to take with you? 1,000,000 rounds, 14 houses, $20 million, nothing can go. When my father died, he was lying in the coffin. Somebody brought some money to put in for transport. He said why I need the money, Bring the money, use the money. In Ghana, if you die, you cannot even take your shoes. One of the things of a dead body in Ghana is that they they don't put on shoes because they feel that the the dead person will come and walk in the house after with the shoes. Click, click, click, click, click with here. So when you die, you cannot even take your shoes. No shoes, nothing. Lady Pastor Juanita, we have a big job to do now. All her clothes. My wife is the one who has to win take all those things because when she died, she didn't take them. Do you understand what I'm saying? Her shoes, even shoes that she hadn't worn before, her hats, her dresses, or they're all in the room. Well, when I go to Bishop Sasaki, I'm sitting in the room, look around and see, I think this is this, this, this all right? She couldn't take mercy, So what can you take? Bible says that I heard a voice crying from heaven saying, blessed are the dead which die in their mouth, or they shall rest from their neighbors. And they are works. They are works. Do follow them. There is only one thing that can cross, and that is your works. Your clothes cannot go, your money cannot go, your certificates cannot go, but your works can go. Your churches that you started, they can cross there it, it is transferable currency. The souls that you want, they can cross. You know something? When you are going on board a plane, they say you can't take this, you can't take this. You can't take this, but you can't take this. You can't take this, but you can't take this. That's it. It's a message. Every time you are getting on a plane, it's a message. You can't take this, You can't take this. You can't take, but you can't take this. You can't take this. The books are written. If they are spiritual and if they are God's quality, they can cross, but if not, they can cross. Tin tin cannot cross. Do you know Tin Tin? Perhaps a haddock and they cannot cross? Open your eyes to the world around you. Open your eyes, open your eyes. This world is much more than the things that surround you. You must arise and open your eyes. Sometimes we're too easy to share, but Jesus wants us to care, to care. Open your arms to the blanket and shipping. Open your arms, open your arms. We need a little less. Take it a lot more giving. We're so safe and walk. We can open our arms and love a little bit stronger and pray a little bit longer, longer. Oh, Jesus says when you love someone in his name, you're loving him. And Jesus says when you touch someone in his name, you're touching him. So we need to show them the light we've got to pour out our lives, our lives. So. Your. Heart they may never repay you, but that souls are worth it. The life you impart when you open your heart. Jesus loves Jesus. He. Wants you to go with his life, his name. Oh, Jesus says when you love someone in his name, you love in him. Jesus says when you touch someone in his name, you're touching him. Oh, Jesus says when you feed someone in his name, you're feeding him. He says it's all all he. Oh, so open your eyes to the world around you. Open your eyes. Open your. Eyes. Open your eyes. This world is much more than the things that surround you. You must arise and open your eyes. Jesus loves home in the sin. He wants us to go in his name, His name. Oh, Jesus says when you love someone in his name, you're loving him. And Jesus says when you touch someone in his name, you're touching him, you're loving him. All right, all right, all right #41 you must be a soul winner so that you will enjoy the hidden manner. Hidden manner. Revelation chapter 2, verse 17. To him that of the Kamath will I give to each of the hidden manner. Now what is hidden manner? Do you want to know what is hidden manner? How many want to know what is hidden manner? Do you want to know what is hidden manner? Well, I don't know what is hidden manner. I don't know what is hidden manner. But I know that there is something called hidden manner and I don't know what it does, but I want it because it is a reward for those who overcome. Yes, it must be something good. I don't know what it is and what it does and what is the use of that thing. But I tell you, if you go to some of the villages we went to and you gave them a credit card and you say here is a credit card, use it for whatever you can buy as much as you want in that village. You tell them they will not know what it is. They tell that when you come to the city or whatever you can use it. They may just throw it away, you see. So there are places is when you get there, that's when you will even understand this thing. It is very good that I have one hidden manner. I see you eating some hidden manner. One day #42 you must be a soul winner so that you will be given a whitestone. Whitestone. Hey, what is a Whitestone? Do you want to know what a Whitestone is? I can't hear you. I said. Do you want to know what a whitestone is? Are you sure you want to know what a whitestone is? I don't know what a whitestone is, but I want a whitestone. How many want a whitestone? If there is a whitestone, I also want one of the white stones, Whatever it is used for, I want that whitestone. Tell somebody I need a whitestone, I want a whitestone. I'm having my whitestone. I'm getting my whitestone. Ask your neighbor what is the whitestone? What are you going to do with it? I want it. All right #43 so that you must be a soul winner, so that you will be appointed over nations. Nations, this is how you not stand for elections. You will be appointed. Revelations chapter 2, verse 26. And he that overcometh and keepeth my works to the end, everybody said to the end. Him will I give power over the nations? I saw Reinhard Bonke in Indonesia. He's 67 or 68 years old, is going to be 70 and he was preaching. He said, my son told me, Daddy, you are now getting older. You must slow down. You have to slow down. You think you are getting older, you are getting to the end. Do you know what he's told his son? He said, my son, you listen to me, when a jumbo jet is on the runway and it is getting to the end of the runway, that is when the speed increases more and then it takes off and it goes into the air to land at a new Jerusalem. He said now that I'm getting to the end, my speed is now going to increase more. Hallelujah. He told he said my but listen to carefully to what I'm telling you. It's good Now that you are going to store that jumbo jet that is about to take off, are you going to slow down? Hey, it is now that the speed has to increase. He said he that is faithful with my works to the end. It's not just about starting the works, it's about finishing the works. Hallelujah. Tell somebody, my son, you listen to me now as I'm getting to the end of the runway, my speed is going to increase and I'm going to take off and land in the New Jerusalem. Give the Lord a shout of praise. Hallelujah. That keepeth my works to the end. I will give him power over nations. I mean, they are not going to call you director in heaven. They are going to. They are not going to call you manager in heaven. They are going to call you King, King, King, something, queen something Princess. I'm not going to call you my manager. What is a manager? What? A manager? What is an officer? I'm not going to be an officer in heaven. I'm going to be a king and a queen. I I see you shining with your crowns and I see you. I'm in maneuvering of our nations. I will say manager, medical officer, housing officer, public officer, managing director, deputy manager, director of finance. What is that? I am the King and the Queen in heaven. Sit down, he that overcometh and keepeth my works to the end. I will give him the Morning Star. Do you know what a Morning Star is? Do you know what an evening style? What about afternoon style? Do you want to know what a morning style is? How many want to know what a morning style is? I don't know what a morning style is, but I want a morning style. I want it. I like it. I don't know what it looks like, I don't know what you do with it, but I want it because it is available to those who overcome, and I intend to overcome and collect my monster. You see me happy with my hidden manner, my whitestone, my monster. Just now when I was preaching, I heard an Angel whispering into my ear and the Angel said you think it is a joke but it is real. I heard the Angel. I was around here when the Angel whispered into my ear. Now you think it's a joke or you are saying something that is telling that it's a real thing. It's a real thing. You sit there and be buying video, the DVD players and satellite dishes and which cannot be used. Even just when you go to your village, it doesn't work. From here to your village, it doesn't work. You'll be there. There's a man do you know Jim Sepulveda. Do you know? Do do you want to know what happened to him? Sit down. I'll tell you what happened to him. Jim Sepulveda. He was going to have an operation. He was awake throughout the whole time and everything was going well in the operation. Suddenly, he says, I felt a searing pain in the middle of my heart, and the pain ran across my shoulders, down my chest and my side. As I began to lose consciousness, I could feel the doctors pounding my chest. They had a heart condition. Jesus, he was a Christian. If it's my time to come home, I'm ready, I thought. I love you. I was engulfed in complete peace with No Fear of death. As a dark shadow came around me. I could hear voices from far away, echoing like a tunnel. We are losing him. We are losing him, losing him. Suddenly I opened my eyes and I was standing in a field surrounded by acres of green grass. Every blade glowed as if it was back lit by a tiny spotlight. Flowers everywhere. The air around me was permeated with lamp. I walked over a hill, The blinding aura was too bright to look, and the light began to appear beside the tree. As my eyes moved upwards, I glimpsed the hem of a seamless white gown. Higher I could make out the form of a man's body around his head, shown an even brighter brilliance. I knew immediately I was standing in the presence of Jesus Christ. Jim, I love you. His voice washed over me, indescribably gentle and tender. You remember I was telling you about tenderness. Sepedoria tenderness, sepodoria, kindness and peaceful softness and the voice. And he said, Jim, I love you, but it's not your time yet. You must go back, for you have many works for me yet to do. I stood in awe and able to utter a sound inside of me. I was protesting that I was never going to go back. I wanted to stay right there beside him. Almost with a hint of a Chapel, he spoke again. Jeremy, I love you, but it is not your time yet. Pasa Kulva was driving from work one day, isn't it? And then you were your eyes closed and open, and you were suddenly where you are, about to fall off. What? And one is it downstairs, therefore is down. And then it's an interchange. He was just about to go over. He was going to go to fly. Have you seen Rambo or those guys can fly in the he was just about to do something or James Bond was about the Angel of the Lord saved him from going over. Otherwise we would have buried him long time ago. Yeah, you see, the angels are at work in this vision, Rejoiner. When Jesus was moving, when he came out of the woman, there were thousands of angels. Angels. Not one or two. The angels, they're moving. Thousands. Big ones, small ones, all kinds. Angels at work, depending on your calling. Then the brilliance surrounded me, engulfed me. Then that blue mist of light began to come around me like a fog and turn into a dark shadow, and everything went blind. Suddenly this is a man whom they were operating on on his heart, but he was awake. I opened my eyes and I realized I was lying on the operating table covered with a sheet. I didn't know until later that I had been clinically dead for 8 minutes. They had. He was dead and they have covered him in the operating. Everybody had left the operating room except for the main surgeon and one of his assistants. They were at the back of the room filling out my death, said yes, report on my death. After a few minutes I sat up. The sheets, the sheets, the sheets slid down my lap and I saw two men at the far side of the room with their backs to me. So the the men were there writing. Then I said, gentlemen, I said, gentlemen, I am ready to proceed if you are. They turned and looked at me, their faces white. Finally the surgeon said, get the rest of them in here quickly. They ran test after test after test after test. That evening. I told my doctor what I had experienced during those 8 minutes. I died on the table, Jim, he said after I was done. I'm going to show you something you wouldn't believe, he said. Together we looked at the new picture of my heart. Rather than being enlarged, it was not the normal size. Where there had been 85% blockage in the arteries, in two arteries there was now no arteriosclerosis and the main valve was functioning normally. His heart, this he was blocked. That's why he was having a heart attack. He was going to die. It's just now clear. We ran test after test on you Jim, and he looked at me and went, this is off the record. According to this picture, this Jesus you've been talking about has either replaced or repaired your heart. Hallelujah. Why did Jesus do that? 8 minutes covered with the sheets and the two doctors are sitting at the back there writing the dead certificate. They stand up and say gentlemen, I'm ready to continue. Why? Because, Because he said he that keepeth my works to the end. There are works, he told him. There is work for you to do. Remember I was giving you that reason. The first reason for being a slowing is that there is work for you to do. Amen. There is work for you to do. All right, Do you now know James Sapol Vida? All right #45 Hey, we are only here 45, OK? You must be a soul winner so that you will wear heavenly designer clothes. Heavenly designer clothes? Not what you bought at Pick and Pay. What other shop do you have in South Africa? Mr. and Misses Bright. Mr. Price. Woolworth, Markham's Jets. OK, Mr. Price, Revelations chapter 3, verse 5. He that's overcome the same shall be clothed in white raiment. And I will confess his name Amen shall be clothed in white raiment. Do you know what these white robes are? How many would like to wear a white robe all the time? Are you sure on earth. Would you like to wear white? So is it. It doesn't look very attractive. If that said, I wear new jeans. He shall receive new jeans and new this and new that. Yeah, but you see in heaven, this white robe may be the latest and the best. One day I was with a sudden rich man and he saw another rich person and he decided to to to say the things that the person had. He said I saw your Gucci bag. He was mentioned the type of bag, the type of shoes, the type of watch that cost this 1000 lbs, this $1000. Its like in this air there are people who know what your watch is, what is this, what is that, What is all those things you know? But I tell you, for me, all these things is it. There is a place where we are going to do sports, we're going to dress. It's not here when you wear a shoe. Only a few people in the world know the price of your dress and of your things. It's just a few people you can impress. Somebody once gave me a very expensive watch, thousands and thousands of dollars. I I never wear it. I have it there. Just what is the use of this in gold? I said, because it's like it impresses some people and I'm not here to impress some people. If you wear sights and they see, they know when he gave it, I went to the I went to a shop and I showed us, oh, this is this. And they showed me the price. Hey, I couldn't believe it. Thousands Houston most of the time I don't even wear a watch and that watch I've just one time my children were so excited about this. This is this name this this this I told you people I said why where are you learning these things from? This belt is from here. This, this is this shoe, this type of choose different names. So one day I brought out a name. I said look at this, they say is it real? I said no. They say see what that is real. So we have all these, we don't even wear them. We are so impressed what we are after. White too, hidden mana. You continue to follow earthly Gucci things monster. I'm looking for designer. We are looking for white ropes. Just a few people know the value of what you have was an expensive thing. It's just a few people who know. And always people think that, you know, they have ideas. So brothers and sisters, let us focus on these heavenly things. Amen. The next reason is because because Jesus is standing at the door of the hearts of many people waiting for an opportunity to come in. He's knocking. Revelations 3, verse 20. It is number 46, right? All right, he's standing at the hearts, at the doors or the hearts of people, Amen. You know, sometimes you are at somebody's door, he doesn't know you are there. Sometimes somebody has to call and tell him, you know, somebody standing outside your gates. And that's our job to, to make the calls and inform that, you know, there's, there's people outside, there's somebody at your door, there's somebody at the gate, it's knocking, rinking, trying to come in. Amen. And we have to tell them. We have to tell them, tell them, even if they don't believe it, we have to tell them that Jesus is standing at the door knocking. Can I come in? Did I tell you the story of Margaret? You know the story of Margaret. You don't know the story of Margaret, Margaret. Margaret is somebody. There was a certain young man in Germany. This is a true story. It was Reinhard Bonke who told this story, said he read it in his in the newspaper. And he said this Margaret, she was married to this nice young man. And when the war came, they had to take all the young men to go and fight. So they had just gotten married and this young soldier was taking to Poland or somewhere, and in the first few days that he went to the war, he was captured and he was put in the prison and he was thinking about Margaret every He wanted to stay alive so that he could come back home to his wife Margaret. Every day they would give them work to do, carry stones. Here, dig this. Every step he took Margaret, Margaret. He was thinking about Margaret. When he went to sleep in the night, he laid down in the prison cell with all the other prisoners of war. He would close his eyes. He would think about his beautiful, beautiful wife he had just married. He was thinking about Margaret. So one day the war ended or they was getting to the end of the war and they were now releasing prisoners to go back. So the Fed, the prison officer came one day with a list of all the names of the people who had been released, and they read all the names and his name was not on the list and he was so broken. And that night he went to sleep and once again, you see he was he wanted to escape because he wanted to see Margaret. So the next day, Can you believe they brought another list and they went through all the names and this time his name was on the list. He was so happy. He said I'm going home, I'm going home to see Margaret. So he went, they got out, I think they had a train, they took it and they went on a journey all the way for hours and days till they got to Germany. When he got to his town, the whole town was destroyed. The war in Germany there was, so recently I went to Cologne, there's a big cathedral there and they told me that during the war that was the only building that was not destroyed. And it was, it was what the Air Force pilot, they didn't destroy because that was what they were using to know where they were because of that cathedral. You see it in the air and I saw a picture of the whole Germantown totally smashed, and only that cathedral standing. The cathedral in Cologne, the Catholic cathedral, very, very huge. In it you have the tombs of the three wise men in gold. It stands in the church like that, the three wise men who came to look for Jesus anyway, All right, so anyway, so when he came to the town, the whole town was destroyed and he went, He found the way to where he used to. And Can you believe it? The house where he was with his wife, Margaret, was still standing. Yeah. And his heart started to beat. I'm going to see Margaret. The house is there. He was. He was so excited. And he came up to the door, put his bag down and started knocking. And suddenly he had footsteps, and he knew those footsteps. Those were the steps of Margaret and his hassle to beat even more. And suddenly the moment of truth came and the door opened. She turned the key and opened the door. And who was there? Margaret Boke said Margaret was more beautiful than the shining, the shining sun. She was more beautiful than ever, more voluptuous. As she stood there, he lifted his hand and she said, Margaret, I am here, Margaret, I am back. And suddenly something terrible happened. Margaret held the door and slammed the door shut. And he shouted. Margaret, Margaret, I am your husband. Margaret, I am back. But Margaret slammed the door and closed the door. Do you want to know why? Do you want to know why the door was closed? This man was knocking outside the door. Do you want to know why Margaret slammed the door and kept her wonderful husband out? Do you want to know why? Because there was another man inside the house. Oh, Margaret, Oh, Margaret. You see, the reason why people are not receiving Jesus Christ into their heart is because the devil is in the house. The devil is in the hearts of the people. The devil is there, so Jesus is knocking. He's knocking, knocking, knocking, knocking, knocking. Open the door. And the devils and demos are in the hearts of people and we have to tell them, we must tell them that there's somebody very important. Open the door for him. He's standing at the door of your heart. Open, Margaret. Open. He's the right person who is coming. Let that wrong person go out. Hallelujah. Oh, Margaret. How many reasons do you have? 4647 so you must be a soul winner so that you will be a You will receive a divine autograph so that you receive a divine autograph. Revelation chapter 3, verse 12 Him that openeth, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and I will write upon him the name of my God. You know how people bring their look. Can you sign? Can you sign, Can you sign? Jesus is going to come with his pen. Come, you come going to sign. No, not on a book. He says look. He says I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of my, the city of my God, which is, and I will write upon him my new name. Write on him my new name. So when you go and somebody's fool, you show them the sign of that. Look carefully at the signature. Hey, the sign on you, your signature. Somebody has to come, come and get a sign on you. I'll write on him my new name. I'll write on his forehead. Never the same again. I'm never the same again. I mean nobody. You'll never be the same again now. I know I won't be the same again from that moment time that Jesus new life for me began and I won't be the same again. I remember how we waited, how we called me my night, yet I chose to wander my own way and nothing worked out right till the day I finally surrendered. Jesus filled my life. Now I won't be the same, never the same again. I'm never the same again. Now I know I won't be the same again from that moment time that Jesus new life from me began and I won't be the same again. He may take me through the valley even though I am this child and the road. He takes me baby round and rugged for a while, but he takes my hand and speaks the word that ridings up the way. Now I won't be the same. Hallelujah. How many know that many people will never be the same again when you go and you tell them about Jesus? Never the same again, Never the same again. Look, you can give them money, but you've not given them Christ. Money doesn't change people's lives. Money often destroys people's lives #48 you must be a soul winner so that you receive heavenly positions. To him that overcometh I will grant to sit in my throne. Amen. How many want those heavenly positions even as I also overcame and I'm sat down with my Father in his throne? Revelations 321 All right #49 You must be a soul winner in order to break every tribalistic tendency in you. Some of us are tribalistic, nationalistic, ethnocentric. Your life is centered around your ethnicity, centered around your color, is centered around who you are and what you are like. But you need to break that thing in June. Amen. And the Bible says the apostles and the brethren who were in Judea had in Acts 11, verse one and two, that the Gentiles had received the word of God. And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him. So people were contending with, with Jesus, with the with Peter for going to preach to Gentiles. Christians, why did you go there? What is there? How did you do that? You know? Well, I tell you, if you're South African, God is trying to break every tribalistic South African spirit in you. You are not much good if you are just centered around your little country and your little triumph. Its only during soccer that we are allowed to choose our country. Do you understand? And if your country is not playing and your spiritual country is playing, then you back your spiritual country. What is your spiritual country? Ghana. So I hope you've been supporting Ghana. I support Ghana. The day when we were playing the first match, I prayed that God, I prayed for three players, I prayed for Suleiman Tari that God should anoint his toes and his toes were anointed. Even I heard the British commentator saying when he shot it, he said he see there is something more than ordinary in that right folks, but he didn't know that. I have prayed for an anointing on the toes. It seems there is something special in that right face. Amen. I want you to break that tribalistic thing. It is a very terrible hindering thing. In fact, it is one of the only things that can prevent you from doing well in the ministry. For instance, do you know that in America, you know, or even all over the world, people go to church? I mean, that's the time that you see color, white go here, black go here. Sunday morning, the most segregated hour of all the time that we say we are worshipping is the time when we segregate more, we separate. Nigerians go to Nigerian churches, Ghanaians go to Ghanaian churches, Congolese go to Congolese churches and all it goes on and on and on and on. But we need to break that spirit and go international. Amen. We didn't come to South Africa to win, Ghanaians came to win souls. A soul is a soul. I said A soul is a soul and its precious to God. He may be a Carpenter, he may be a watchman, he may be a tailor and a soul is a soul and it's precious to God. He may be a Nigerian, he may be a Ghanaian, he may be Tobolis, he may be from Ivory Coast, but a soul is a soul and it's precious to God. He may be South African, maybe from Botswana, it may be from Zimbabwe, it may be from Namibia, but a soul is a soul. I said a soul is a soul and it's precious to God. Everybody say after me, a soul is a soul and it's precious to God. Amen. You know you should be able to marry anyone God tells you to marry. Let me, let me, let me, let me, let me give you a little test to see if you are cured of your tribalistic. Do you want that test? Should I show you the test? How many want to know the test that will show whether you are cured that thing? If you imagine hypothetically that you have to marry now, can you marry somebody from anywhere or you can marry only somebody like you? There is a song Somebody like you love somebody like me. Is that not a song like that? Yeah, sing it. Somebody like you love somebody like me.
