12. Forty Missionaries In The Bible 2

Welcome to track #12 of why are you not a missionary 40 Missionaries of the Bible Noah #1 God sent Noah on a mission to all men, Amen. To build an ark so that he would save them, Amen. But they did not listen to him, is that not? So Turn to Genesis chapter 6. Now the Bible is basically full of missionaries, Amen. Have you found it? Genesis, Did you find it? I didn't tell you where. Genesis chapter 6, verse 13. And somebody should read it for us from verse 13 to 21, Amen. Now, are you there? Which of these is fulfilled in the what I gave you as what it means to be a man on a mission? Someone with an assignment, carrying out a project? What else, huh? Somebody who has a what? A task, an operation has a duty. Fulfill a responsibility, a vocation, a job. Amen. So Noah Wright was on a mission and his main work was to build a boat which was going to save the world. Amen. There as my representation as somebody who has worked with me before in my office there on a mission, on a special job, which is presence in that job is very, very important for me. So that is different from those who fly upon the spoil in Geneva refusing to go on a mission. You see what I'm trying to say? Is that the same action may be going on, but for different reasons, you see, and many people who are like flying on the spoil claim that they are on a mission there, on a special assignment there. But what I'm trying to what I'm trying to say is that there's a difference between being on a special assignment and then flying on the spoil or not going on a mission. And so we have a lot of people who claim to be doing this, you know what they want to do. Do you understand? I'm not saying that those who are in Geneva are flying on the sprawl. No, what I'm saying is that what I'm saying is that you can be in London. You will be here on a special assignment. You may be in London, but you are flying on the sprawl or you are here and you are just doing whatever you want to do. You may be in Ghana or Nigeria, wherever in the world and you, you think you are on a mission, but you are not pleasing to God. So there is no way we can remove from the the reality from the fact that every special job that you are supposed to do is God's will and is the mission, is the task, is the assignment, is the responsibility that you have to do. Amen. So do what you have been assigned to do. Amen. Even if it looks unimportant to you, you must do it. And if you are not a good missionary right where you are, you will not be a good missionary on any field, anywhere. You'll bring a lot of problems to us. Crossing the ocean does not make you more of a missionary than not crossing the ocean. So when we don't have any good results from you here, we are not likely to have any good results from you when you get across the field. Amen. So I want to encourage you. What is your special assignment? Now, there are people who are who are with me. You don't see them when I'm preaching. You don't. You don't see them. But without them, I couldn't be preaching to you. That's true. Without them, I couldn't be preaching to you and I can't go into all those things, but they are doing so many things for you as we are standing here, as we are the camp here. You don't have any idea and and I cannot mention what they do, what they are, what they are role and so on. But without them, we wouldn't even be here talking about what we are talking about. That's a fact. So everybody has a special assignment and it's very important that you rather think of how to do it better. Now you fulfill your assignment better and best. Amen. Are you excited about that? Because now I've provided a door for you to stay here forever, isn't it? You can always say that you are. You are a Noah who is here building an arc. Mercy. But you will notice that this missionary, Noah, Agent Noah was a missionary sent to save the whole world. He saved. All of us are descendants of Noah. We are all being saved by Noah's ark. Everybody else drowned. So the rest of us are descendants of Noah. They are all fruits of Noah's ministry. So do your part and you'll be blessed #2 that missionary Abraham is the next good example. Now God sent Abraham and now some of the people are multiple missionaries. They are sent several times on missions in one life that they have. Amen. All right, God sent Abraham on a mission to leave his country and go to another country that he did not know. Amen. Genesis chapter 12, verse one. And the Lord said unto Abraham, Get thee out of the country, Get thee out of the country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house unto a land that I will show thee. And he said, I will make up thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great, and thou shalt be a blessing. And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee, and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed. Amen. All right, now God sent Abraham on a mission to leave his country and go to another country. Abraham is the ultimate missionary, a missionary who does not know where he's going, but his main work is to live. God is mysterious and you must get used to that. He said just go, just go, just go, just go, just go. Amen. So God wants you to go and how many are going to go? So just leave your country now. Why does God want us to sometimes leave our country? Because sometimes you'll be surprised that people do not, will not receive you as well in your own country. True, you know when you know somebody. We know you, we know your father, we know your mother. We, we, we, we bath you when you were small. That is why you rarely have older people who are older than you in your church and knew not until the flood came and took them all away. So shall the coming of the Son of Man be. The Lord said unto Abraham, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house unto a land, that I will show you. Now when Abraham obeyed God, he did not go, He did not obey Him on the mission fully. Now there are some details that you need to follow God on. When he said away from your father's house he went with and away from your kindred He went with lot. Every. Problem that Abraham had on his mission field can be related to Lot. Every problem that Abraham had can be related to the presence of Lot. There was different things, problems, strife, different things. They are all related to this failure to fulfill his particular mission. Now that is why when somebody comes to me and tells me I feel the Lord wants me to go to Chile, I try to let the person go there. Because God, you are a self-propelled built missile, a surprising ballistic person, and sometimes God places it in your heart about certain things. And so I try to flow with that because I am not God and I don't know most of the things, so I just flow along. So if, for instance, you have had an impression from the Lord to be by the Congo River or to be in Nigeria, do you understand? Or to be by the Zambezi River? I like to flow. Do you understand where the flow is and what the Lord is telling you? Because the details of the calling are important. This Abraham had was because of lots, I mean lot that he took. He went, was captured by some people. A whole lot of it was when he was coming back, I think that he met Melchizedek and so on. Do you understand? Is it not a lot who went into this fire? Sodom and Gomorrah? Yeah, the same lot. And then when there was strife, a lot of strife, and then he had to ask, so which way should we go and so on. Lots took the best area, you know. I mean, his whole issue was changing because one of the details of the calling are you there, are you there. Now, some of you cannot go and be successful on your mission because of certain people that you associate with. If you if you get a certain kind of beloved, you cannot, it's true, a beloved that is like lot. You see the missionaries that have been successful, their wives are flowing. They flow. If you are a woman and you are not flowing, it's not easy because you'll be complaining all the time. There's problem, there's that. What is this? Why we go? What is we are doing? We don't have enough money. Has all become is it true? Is it true or it's not true? What is your experience? Your experience? Those who? Survives don't flow, they don't last at all. They just after one maximum 1 1/2 years you you go back. What sort of problems do they give for instance? They complain, they murmur. When you see their face, you can't preach. No. You feel that you have caused them problems by bringing them. Oh, you know you even you will not be happy yourself. You feel bad. You feel. Bad that you spot their lives you. Spot their lives. Wow. Wow, do you get it, you say? I remember the leaks that I had in London. So what about your wife? Has she been helpful? Very helpful. Can you give a better, better sound on this? Yeah. How? How has she been helpful? I mean, she has never complained. She has made sure the kids never talk about London and all these type of things. Yeah, very helpful. She works in the church, so four times. She's very busy, very tired. She's very busy and very tired. Tired. So what are some of the things that other complaining ones complain about? They complain, sometimes they complain about that maybe where they live, the accommodation. What is wrong with it? I mean, when you come, you have to squeeze and. But when they were where? Where were these things? Sometimes I ask myself, where were they before? And they complain about what again? Do they quarrel with each other? They. Quarrel, they don't get along because sometimes we have to stay in one house and share maybe like maybe 3 or 4 different families to share one home. Wives quarrel amongst themselves. You act my still. I made still acted. When you came, you didn't wash up. My husband doesn't my when I came to Kenya once I heard that my husband doesn't eat this type of Stew and this one has made this type of Stew, but my husband doesn't eat this one. Hey. Because to cut 'cause we said we combine and then cook together and share the food. But I said no, everybody wants to cook differently. Doesn't work. You need a really flowing wife. Other than that. Lots can't can't work. And and then and then you also need an enterprising wife. Yeah. What do I mean by that? Somebody who can find work or create work to support because normally 1 income will never be enough if the person the wife is lazy if. There's some lazy wives. And they become like hippos. I used to have a hippo in my office in my old office, but I didn't know that it was a symbol of something. Anyway, I have to get another hippo for the GGS. Whatever country you are from, it's a code name. Gigi for all of you are all the same. You think we are the same? We are all the same. Guyana girls, Mexico girls, Jamaican girl, Kenya girls. They are all the same Nigerian girls. GG means general girls. General girls, when you take a lot a lot and add lots to your life, those are those of you. I'm telling you, Ellie, when you come and say a. Certain brother has proposed to do. And I ask what is his name? His name is Lot. One day a certain sister was proposed to by a certain missionary and this sister said that she was interested in ministry but she did not want to marry that missionary. Maybe he was too Bony. Maybe he was too lean, maybe he looked, he looked like somebody who didn't have bright eyes for the future. And she rather wanted to marry this other secular brother who is, who is not on a mission, a brother who was not a devotee, a brother who is not an indoctrinator, a brother who was not an agent, a brother who was not an admirer, a brother who is not a fan. And she went and married this brother who was not a propagandist, He was not a carrier, he was not a converter, an advocate. And in the end, that was the end of her missionary work. So over and over and over and over and over, If you take along a lot, all your mission will be contaminated and affected by that thing. Yeah, it will fight you. And even sometimes you take a lot who is not a woman. But let's say you are a brother and you take another brother and then sometimes, yeah, the person is now challenging you. This know how Bishop was said, we should do this. This is whatever this and that, this and this and that and that. For you realize when you are preaching, you feel certain feelings. Your hand will be shaking, your lips are dry because they are assessing you. And so you have no power. You don't have anointing. When you preach there's no presence, I don't feel the presence. Such people, you have to sack them. All leaders should take note. For me, I sacked my first assistant. No, he didn't say he will go. I sacked him to learn it. So that if you have to see somebody who does not, it is not, does not admire you when you are preaching, that's not a sacking. It's not, it's not like he's evil, but it's not for you. It's not, it's not your best leader, I mean assistant. So he should go and go to a place that he admires and flows because you are also developing. You need time. Your ballistic powers have not yet come. But the ballistic, it is inside and one day ballistic will be released. And then you look at the people and say, ah, what? Expected something different and we're expecting something different. So Abraham, every missionary, 40 missionaries we can learn from, and one of them is Abraham. Now, one of the other things that you can learn from Abraham is that he didn't have a particular destination. There are missionaries without any particular destination around boys. See, one day I told Pastor Joel in America, I was telling him to leave New York and go to Atlanta. And then after I said go again to Chicago. Now I've told him leave again, go somewhere. And I was explaining to him I wanted him to be an errand boy, someone who just moves around without any particular place that you can say I belong here. But at that time, it's suddenly strange to him. But when you read these things, you realize that for a missionary there is a type of mist time without any particular destination. It's a mover from here. Pasa Robert is also like that. He has no particular destination. I've asked him to move to to another place and then I'm planning. Probably you go to India and then different countries just keep moving there Are there are missionaries like that without. It is not like there's a plane. You have to go somewhere. They just have to start things. They just move away. So one of the things you learn from Abraham, the missionary, the agent, is this type of nonspecific movement. Yeah, he just sort of moving around, moving around, moving around. They say go here when they call it say go yes. When should we leave? We are ready to leave, but why you guys said? My children are in school. They will finish next year in June. They are writing special examination called Matriculation. They are writing special examination called what matriculation are all level GCSE and they are in the middle of they are in the middle of their school. So we. Cannot move till after July. You're not a missionary. A missile is something that moves suddenly and swiftly. Because the devil knows that you can only move after July. Then you are not a missionary, you are too predictable. That is why they can catch you, because your movements are always after July, after matriculation, GCSE, after this, after this, after this. But a true missile is sagging and swiftly. That's why when you are on to all these thousand year mortgages, the mortgage will finish. Ten years after you are dead. You don't even know you will be dead for 12 years before the mortgage will be will be finished. Even you will not finish pay before you die. How can you move swiftly and suddenly? You said my wife's hairdressing kiosk, she has bought 3 of the hair dryers and she has bought 4 chairs with a special distance sexual dryer and whatever. How can you move suddenly when you are all these type of things are turning you down? Bishop, will you please make up your mind where exactly are? You sending me to so that I. Know how? To settle with my family. My family are now confused. Today they are speaking. Spanish. Tomorrow Portuguese, Next time French. Next time, Quevadian. Language. Next time, English. We don't know which language they are going. To speak again their. Education is confused. You think we are here to bring up children? Is that the call of God to bring up children? Don't come and confuse Him, you will be surprised. Yes, we expected something a different type of calling who expected something different who expected a specific calling. But this is a generalized calling. For general movements, you wait. So I want my children to be in the UK, you know, Mr. Pryor, your child will put. Something on the ear will say Daddy, Daddy. I think I'm a girl, you know Danny. I think I'm a girl, you know? Daddy. If you are taking your child to Nigeria and taking your child to Kenya and taking your child to Kevvet, Madagascar. Daddy, Daddy. I think I'm a girl, you know? Oh, my God. You know, I've always had those feelings, you know? Swiftly, Suddenly, a missile, A missilary. Suddenly, swiftly. I say, you've got a mug. Guess or what I'm doing? Matriculation. JCSC. Kill. On me. When we are starting. Come back, take orange juice and go and put on this. Take orange juice, take orange juice and go and put on them. Take orange juice and go and put it on them. One brunch. You said that Abraham. You said Abraham is your father, somebody who went to place. He didn't know where he was going. You are saying you are Abraham is your father. You have even done outdoor. Your child is called Abraham. You know what it means to be an Abraham's child. You are going to places. You don't know where you are going. You don't know how long. So my my child is getting confused. If it was, you will like your child to be confused or to me. Are you ready? Are the nearest person? Are you a lot? None. Hey, be careful, be careful. Let us, let us be the last time. Sit down. Sons of Abraham, sons of nonspecific callings. This message continues on the next track. Keep listening.
