12. Unbelief 1

Welcome to track #12 of tasters or partakers #4 #4 unbelief. Unbelief unbelief Deuteronomy chapter one verse 33 reasons The fourth reason why we do not enter into the promised land or into the partaking level of ministry is what unbelief Now Deuteronomy chapter 31 And in the wilderness where you saw how the Lord your God carried you as a man carries his son in all the way you have walked until you came to this place for all this you did not trust the Lord your God who goes before you on your way to seek out a place for you to encamp in fire by night and cloud by day, to show you the way in which you should go Glory thy God. Unbelief. You did not trust the Lord your God. Amen. Hebrews, chapter 3, verse 15. While it is said today, if you will hear His voice, had not your hearts, as in the provocation For some, when they had heard, did provoke? How be it not all that came out of Egypt by Moses? But with whom was He grieved 40 years, Was it not? Now with whom was He grieved 40 years? Was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness, and to whom swear He that they should not enter into his rest? Who were the people that God swore and said, Now you're not going in? With whom to them that believed not? What is this? Hey, King James did fast before something. King James is quick, please. OK, but to them that believed not Amen. So God all. And he says he. So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief. Amen. They could not enter in because of unbelief. 19 We see that they could not enter in. They could not partake because of what an be leave. We see that they could not enter in because of an be leave. Amen. Now traditionally many people have faith for money, houses, cars, lands, beloveds, etcetera, etcetera. But now you need to have faith. Amen for serving the Lord. Amen. Faith to serve the Lord. This is what you need to have faith to serve the Lord. So let me give you 5 reasons why you need to have faith to serve the Lord. Amen. Actually, let me see. Are you there? Give me. 2 seconds, I'll be with you. OK, now the next important thing. Amen. Are you there? What? The next important thing is faith for ministry. Amen. Why faith is important? You have to develop faith for the ministry. Amen. OK, number one, you need faith because by faith you are saved. So you, I'm sharing with you what you need faith for in the ministry, what you need faith for. So you need faith in the ministry for salvation. Are you there or you don't understand what I'm saying or you don't get what I'm trying to say? Faith for salvation. Now I'm explaining why faith is important to help you go to the ministry. And the first one is because faith is really the main thing that you use for salvation. Salvation is an invisible thing, and many pastors forget about salvation after they've been in the ministry for some time. Have you got that? The green? Who's getting it? It's not working. OK, no problem. You got one. Not it. You don't got it. No. Yes. That's all. No. OK, What? When I have a crusade, we spend about 150 thousand U.S. dollars and all that happens is that people lift up their hand and say how many of you want to receive Jesus Christ as your savior? OK, pray after me. I believe Jesus Christ for $150,000, that we spend it for that and it's gone, finished. There's nothing left if you don't have faith. You, you don't even become a good minister because it takes faith to continue persisting in the belief of salvation as an important thing. And for the belief of salvation for many people and many pastors have lost the faith that leads to salvation. Salvation, creating faith. Amen. Yeah. So salvation faith is not just for people who don't know God and are now coming to know God and but it is for people who are climbing closer in the ministry towards God. You have more faith. You do more things that lead to salvation. You spend more blind money, you see, you use less faith to build a building, but you use more faith to do invisible things like leading people to salvation. Amen. So begin to have faith. If you don't have faith for salvation, you will not give your life for salvation of people. Think about it. If somebody asks me why am I in the ministry, why don't I go to the hospital and help people to be cured of their headaches? And I said to my because of my faith, the faith that I have in salvation, in my salvation and in salvation in general makes me rather keep myself for that. So you may think yourself as a good person, but there are more. You have faith and that's why people don't go into the ministry, because people don't really believe that salvation is so important. Yes, salvation. The person who's sitting by you needs to be saved. People really need the Lord. People need to be saved. Hey, we have to do this. We have to do so people be saved. People have lost faith in salvation. Pastors do not really think about it. Think about, oh, more people should come to the church, this should happen. That should happen. But they are not thinking about salvation of people. And you need, you need faith. So Pastor's faith has dropped. That's why the concept of salvation, faith for salvation is gone. Why you wouldn't give up your life, go and get people safe. But you see people giving their life to go to Iraq, Afghanistan. People go and fight foolish wars, useless causes. It's like, oh, that's a good thing, That's a good 'cause, isn't it? That now your faith must rise. And because faith is not developing, salvation is not believed in so much as to make somebody do everything in his life to just bring salvation to one person. Now the Bible says that there's so much rejoice in the heaven when one person is saved. So faith is now needed for the ministry. It's needed for people in ministry already. It's needed for people to enter into ministry for salvation #2 faith is important in the ministry because you cannot take the next step in your ministry without faith. Bible says in 2nd Corinthians 5, seven For we work by faith, not by side. So that means we take steps by faith. So how many want to take a step into ministry? You take a step into ministry, the next step in your ministry by having faith, you will not see everything clearly. Somebody I want to see, I want to see, I want to know how much is it going to be? What am I going to get? What am I not going to get? You can't. There's nothing like that ministry. You can't know things that I'm doing now. I just have to believe that they are right. I don't know whether they are right. I just believe that they are right. I have to go by my faith. This morning when I was praying, I felt the Lord was leading me to give a particular offering, you know, in relation to something. And it's a big thing, but how do I know I'm right? I just, I just have that faith that that's what and I just believe it. There's no way I can really tell. There's no there's no way I can really tell that. OK, this is right. This is wrong. I mean, the step, the next step you need without faith, you you can't move. It's not going to come on. Did you hear me? It's not going to come on. You're waiting to see. I ready to understand. You're ready for confirmation. Then then see me after church. I can cancel your name from the list. Whose paper is this? I can. I'm going to make a list and cancel your name. All those who want to know everything and make it. I'm cancelling your names because you can't know. You can't know. You're not going to be on this list. I don't know the future. You don't know the future. I don't know the future. Do you know the future? I don't know the future. You get it. But we've got to trust. So the next step of it, next step to healing. When I wanted to step into healing, I needed faith. I believe that I'm healed of this. I had a pain. It's gone. You need faith. Without faith, you can't take that step. This last week, This week I had the first time I've had a miracle service with white Americans. Yeah. And I mean. But I've never had it. I've never, I've never had a miracle service. White Americans, the Americans have been in has been having miracle services. We have been having miracle services with Africans. They were he, but I needed to believe. I prayed for them. I didn't know whether Americans believe in something. No, I'm talking about white people. I didn't know why they believe in such things. So I prayed for them. I took my next step. I said that he'll come. And they came. Yeah. To come and testify. It was fantastic. How many want to take the next step? You, you see, we work by faith and not by sight. Faith. Faith is the assurance of things for, for and the conviction of things you cannot see. As soon as you can see, you know, you are not operating by faith. So all the people want to see something. You want to know something, You want to understand something. Hey sister, you are out of faith. You are into some other thing we can see, but we trust. We can see, but we we flow. You get it, you get it, Mr. Young man, you get it, Mr. Big stuff. The next one is you cannot live in the ministry without faith. What Bible says For the just shall live by his faith. Amen. The just shall live by faith. Amen. Isn't that powerful? That just shall live by his faith. Who knows that verse? No, that's we shall walk by faith. Abakak 24 Isn't it Hebrews 1038 as well? OK, so just write that down. You cannot live in the ministry. You don't have faith. You always be looking around you and say, oh, you know, next one. You cannot please God in the ministry unless you have a lot of faith. All the things you do have to be based on your beliefs. You get it. Your beliefs are going to be the thing that make you able to please God. You have to have beliefs. You get it. You have to have what beliefs? If you have beliefs, you can't, you can't, you can't, you can't, you can't operate. You can't be pleasing. You will not be pleasing. That's why in the ministry we never advertise a job and say you want to have this, you have that. You are having nothing expect and prepare for poverty and you think we are joking. We are not joking. We are serious, we are not joking. You know, I once had a pastor who came along and then after he had been in ministry for some time, he said to he said that. If he had stayed at where he was working, he, he mentioned his post, he had been around for five years now, he mentioned because he was working for this big corporate organization. That's why when you are a rich person, so I will not ask you to come to work in the ministry. Sometimes these rich people, they are asking, so when are you going to come? I cannot call you. God has to call you. When God calls you, you come, I see all of you, an American says official. Why should I just, you know my address, you know the address, you come, you arrive. When you arrive, I don't explain to me how you came or what you are doing there or how you should come. You'll be telling me if I was working at so by now I would have been the director general. And it's my actually my colleague, my my colleague who is now there, whatever. And So what do you know where I would have been UN Secretary General? Do you know where I would have been by now if I was also following whatever? We are not following that we are working by faith. If you cannot, if you cannot come by faith, I don't want to know of your things. Now you have whatever. You just need faith. We work by faith. We take step by faith. We want to please God by faith. Don't, don't bring your life to come and confuse us #5 in the ministry you need faith if you are going to have a good report in the ministry. Yeah, if you end up end up going to do well, you're going to need a good report. Because the Bible says in Hebrews Chapter 11 verse 2 says that for by 8 the elders obtain a good report. Amen. So elders obtain a good report by the faith that they had. Amen. So faith is going to help you to end up having a good report as far as the Lord is concerned, not holiness. Now, I know you'd like to be holy, but for as far as a good report is concerned, you are gonna need more faith. Now, I know you want to be holy and God wants us to be holy, but I tell you, you see, stand up. You say you work at environment department. Let me tell you something, brother. I don't care where you work, even you may be cleaning the whole environment. But I can tell you one thing, all right? And what I can tell you is that no matter how righteous you think you are, you are still dirty. You are just like me and you are just like the environment and you are just like you are just like that prostitute out there. You are just like that. Whatever Sinner you are just like any other Sinner, you get it. You get it because the things you haven't done physically, you've done them in your mind. How many I've done a very bad thing in your mind before. Raise your hand if you've done something very bad in your mind before, not not necessarily today, but before. So now God is looking at you and it's like it's all the same. So I mean, even God does not like people who are too righteous. You know that people who are too goody goody 2 shoes, that's what you got. That's goody 2 shoes, OK. God doesn't like the Bible says in Ecclesiastes, be not over righteous or be not righteous over much. Why should as thou destroy thyself? God doesn't like too righteous. It says Thou art inexcusable. Oh man, for in that thou judges another, thou condemns thyself. Roberts 21. Write it there. You see the same moment you are condemning somebody. You are in it, but you are yet to discover how you are in it. What's your name again? Mammy, Mammy, mammy, Mommy. You don't know how dirty you are, isn't it? Yeah, you may be a virgin, but that's only one sin. One of the sins, fornication is only one. I've seen virgins who have the most terrible characters. It's true. Terrible virgins. Now you see if you think virgins are the best, I mean, I don't know whether you're a virgin or not. That just, I mean, don't worry whether you're not a virgin. Don't. Don't worry if you're a virgin. Don't worry, OK. You may be a virgin. Don't worry. Yeah. Keep smiling. Look ahead. Nobody will really know whether you're a virgin or not. You get it. What am I talking about? Virgins. There's only thing that a virgin is very holy, terrible virgins 11 brother. He had. He had no brother and his father was married to his wife, his own wife till he till she died and he also died. But he told me that his father gave him only one piece of advice about marriage. And the only advice he gave him was do not marry a virgin. Do not. Now, this goes contrary to some other teachings, You get it. Where they would advise you to marry a virgin. You get it. Yeah, Or even somebody. Some men would prefer to marry a virgin rather than somebody who's been around all over the place. You get it. See, as we are around here, nobody knows anything about all these places. Shabbaya. But the point that I'm trying to make is that why would somebody say I have only one thing, my son? There's only one son. And the only advice I give to this only son is do not marry, ever. It means that, yes, there's something terrible that is so in spite of the fact that the person was a virgin, more terrible than the person is. I've been even been a prostitute before. That is the why. That is the reason why he gave that advice that do not, do not marry a virgin. Yeah. So there are a whole lot of other things. So God doesn't like to override just. It's not the only problem. Yeah, there's many other things. I mean, we're having a meeting a few minutes ago, and as everybody speaks, you can see different aspects that have to be worked on to make us whole, not just virginity or even sexual sin. Who are you talking about? What's this? We, we need the toilet roll more than anybody. But you know what? The toilet roll, the blood of Jesus to cleanse us. Why do you need toilet roll in your house? Because there's going to be some death. It's going to come. And why don't you need the blood of Jesus? Blood Just cleanse us. Present continuous. So there are more sins and sometimes when you come to I don't smoke the big four, I don't drink, I don't fornicate and I don't steal. I'm not I'm not I'm a virgin. No, I got the proudest difficult to stay with stubborn. Never say I agree, never say no, never bow, never yield. Have this stubbornness like witchcraft who they're out virgin witches, virgin witches. That's how that Virgin Atlantic. We have virgin witch witches, virgin witches. We have virgin witches, virgin pride, the pride of a queen. That guy is is the father said never marry a virgin. These are the only advice. I don't advise this, this, this that. Don't marry a foreigner. Don't marry only a virgin. Don't like your mother. Don't marry anybody like your mother. I've suffered, suffered more than 30 years and he didn't. I don't know if he said that, but he's just this is all and a person who doesn't talk when he speaks for him after we write the rest for him. So faith is what can make you actually have a good report because all through your life to your very end, you will be like this, so weak, your flesh always worrying you all the time. Your flesh will be worrying you all to the last day. Oh, Catherine Coleman, you know, when she went to a hotel room, when she entered the hotel room and she saw a mirror on top of the bed, you know, the big bed over there and then there was a mirror on top. She just, she just laughed. She said, I know what that is for. I know what is that is for. She was a human being knows what is the mirror, what it is useful. Those of you who don't have mirrors in your rooms, married people who don't have mirrors, you are. You are a beginner. Be rice in the bathroom. You're joking. Are you listening? Yeah. John Wesley. He was about 90 years old, and a young lady came in to their room. Beautiful lady. He was moving around the room and he turned to somebody. What? What is the use of all this? To me at this stage? What is the use of all this? A great man of God with worldwide fruits, he could notice a beautiful lady. And he said, What is the use of all this? You see, till you die, this flesh will always be an embarrassment. How many realize that the feelings and ways of the flesh are very disgraceful as far as your visions are concerned? A man of visions and dreams like you. So what is going to give you the good report is not your holiness, because you're always going to feel the stain of the flesh. But what's going to give you a good report is your faith. And you have faith even though you sinned or you have faith even though you pressed on. And most people who pressed on into the work of God are wounded. Oh, yeah. Oh, we've forgotten. Are often wounded. You see, a shepherd is somebody who when you look carefully at his feet, you see water, you see mud. And if your feet are clean, then you work in the bank. But if you are a real shepherd, you will sometimes see the characteristic of the problems that you weighed amongst. That's how some psychiatrists look mad when you see them say he looks a little sadness. The sicknesses have come on him. Small. We have got Nokosom, Nokosomia. Is it no so or Noko? No Sokomia, no Sokomia infection. The infection that you are getting from the hospital, no Sokomia spiritual, no Sokomia infections. It's true. You criticize somebody is divorce. He may never have divorce if he was not a pastor. If he has been working at the bank, he may not have divorce. So now because of the sisters in the church and the other admirers, so pastor will love you, will love you will love the ministry, will love everything, will love. You know, as she's sitting there, she's not impressed. And you admire Ressa shouting at Oh, the shop. Oh, the shop, my laughing. We love you. You're joking. So maybe the pastor will never have had even even a slightest problem in his life. It wasn't the fact that he was working in the ministry, but if he was working in the bank. When he wears his tie, he goes with his briefcase. Come home, 5:00 sharp. The bank is closed. No more customers. It comes with his bag. Hello, darling. How was your day? What do you have for dinner? What do you say now? You have to serve you on the right. On the left, you do homework with the children, everything. Now the pastor is in church having evening service. After that, he's doing counseling. He's having meetings. It's Valentine's Day. He's at church. Yeah, there are certain problems. He may never have had it before. Not for the kind of work that he's doing. It's true. That is why I told you. Did I tell you that secret earlier about Moses? What did I tell you? Don't say anything when you say so. So I knew. Oh, this man, this, he said. When somebody heard about Benny Hinn's divorce, I had one lady, one lady pastor, you know, she made a comment and said, you see, he said that, this and this and that. He said that. Then the husband says my wife doesn't like this man at all because of some statement he made about the ministry, that man who says this. And I said, hey, you may not know how may not know when God has heard it. I said God has heard it. May you have a good report in your life and your ministry in the name of Jesus. Number six, you need faith for the ministry because it is only through faith that you can do the works of the Lord, and it's only through faith that you can do the what the works of the Lord. How can you pray for the sick? Through faith? Father, thank you. I believe you are healed. How many believe you are healed? Come. I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe. That's all, isn't it? How can you preach and people be saved? I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe. How can you preach? How Can you believe you're a teacher? I believe, I believe, how Can you believe you're a prophet? I believe, I believe, I believe. How Can you believe? You're an opposed? How Can you believe that You should start it? How Can you believe you should go and do a missionary work? It's only by believing and Jesus said it in John. It's one of my favorite verses, although I don't know it by heart. He said in John chapter 6 verse 28 and 29. Then they said unto him, What shall we do that we might work the works of God? And Jesus answered and said unto him, This is the work of God that you believe on him whom he had sent. By believing you are able to do a lot of things. May you become a believing Christian. He says, How shall we do? What shall we do that we might do the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God that you believe. This is the work of God on him whom he had said, This is the work of God. I mean, this is one of my favorite, although I don't know it by heart. This is the work of God that you might believe. So believing has a lot to do with working for God. You can't really come out of your shell unless you start to just believe things. May you come out of your shell in Jesus name. May you begin to believe in things in the name of Jesus. Shabaya #7 you need faith in your ministry because it gives life. It injects life into your ministry. Anytime you have more faith or you, you believe about something, you sort of see that there's some life. Like you said, hey, this guy, he really believes. You see, how do you know that this guy really believes? It's like you see some life and energy in what that person is doing. He has energy to do what he's doing because he believes. And John chapter 6 verse 47, he says very, very, I say unto you, he that believeth on me hath everlasting life. Believing brings life. He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. So the one who has life in what he's doing is the one who believes a lot in what he's doing. How many I've ever seen a priest who is doing something? He doesn't believe what he's doing. Glory to the Mother and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost. Yeah, they don't even, they don't even know what they've been saying. A certain prisoner, he was about to be executed and the executioner came and said the Lord is my shepherd. The the prisoner said we'll shut up. The one was about that. Will you shut up? Oh, and the Prince was surprised. Oh, why? He said, if the whole of England and Wales was covered with broken bottles. If I meet the prisoner, I say I believe in the things you claim you believe. If the whole of England and Wales was covered with broken bottles, I will walk on my knees. I will walk on my knees across the whole of England and Wales to tell the people, he said, Will you shut up? You don't believe the Lord is my shepherd? Or will you shut up over there? The priest has never seen such a prisoner before. He has been singing The Lord is my shepherd. When the person is going to die, why are you singing? The Lord is my shepherd? Yeah, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of there, I shall fear no evil. Will you shut up? He that believer has life. He that has the son has life. But he that believeth on me has. So when you see something, this guy's full of life. He believes something that makes him have the life. But you have life in your ministry in the name of you. But you'll never be a chanting minister who that prisoners, I mean criminals will be, will be silent if you shut up over there, you hypocritical person. You don't believe what you are saying. Come on. Shabbaya, that's happening all right #8 Oh. #8. Faith is important because it will enable you to relate with the Holy Spirit in your ministry. Through faith you'll be able to relate with the Holy Spirit in your ministry. Now in John Chapter 7 verse 38, it says He that believeth on me, as the Scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive. For the Holy Ghost was not yet given, because that Jesus was not yet glorified. John 7 verse 38 and 39 He that believeth on me, as the Spirit says, out of his belly shall flow. This spake he of the Spirit which them that believe on Him should receive. Now them that believe have the Spirit flowing. Do you have that there out of his belly shall flow this picky of the Spirit which they that believe on Him should receive? Who are those who receive the anointing? You know some of you have heard me tell my story. I was in Sue home in the hospital and I was praying and then I felt this thing coming. Now someone said, Are you sure as I have No, I thought something entered my belly and then I had a voice in the room and the voice said from today you can teach. Now I have to believe something. There's a point at which I can't express. I can't prove it to you. I can't show you evidence or I can't. There's not is it like so I'm not going to cooperate with the Holy Spirit that I can only cooperate with the whole people by believing that this is it. This is it. I mean, so he that believers should receive. So when God gives you things, you don't believe you you you don't sort of receive them. Like I was telling you have this and it's like you just look at me like one day a man of God blew over me. I have to believe because what I smelled, I smelled. No, no, I smell. I don't know what it was garlic or what it was. Just garlic, air and other yeah. I tell you now, when he blew over me, at that point, I had a choice. To believe in things. Or I could even move into other another realm of finding it funny or even criticize or even washing my face or No, no, it was just one big breath. Yeah, I had a choice. And at that moment I asked myself, what do I believe? Garlic or anointing? And I decided to believe that I had received something and, and, and, and if it is true with time, you one day hear me testifying about something. It's true. I don't tell me. I choose to believe it. You can never cooperate with that noise. Cooperate with them. You mean half of now you hear people standing and saying, you know, and then the Lord said to me this and then you'll be sitting there and say this man. So the Lord like the person who is talking with him, it's all by faith. And because you don't have faith, you cannot, you cannot receive the holy speaker and hear him. You can't hear anything. There's nothing because it says that they that believe on him should receive you see so out of you shall flow a river so that river starts to flow the anointing when you start believing. Oh yeah, people who don't believe in it. You think that this is just to receive speaking in time. There's no thanks written here. He's talking about receiving the spirit, flowing with the spirit and it's for people that are believing in things. They are the ones who have it. I said God said I should do a crusade. I have to believe. I said I believe God told me to do healing Jesus crusade. I did it. I believe God said I should do this. I had a vision. All is believing, believing, believing. Believe all the things. I have no hard evidence. Let's not have evidence of almost everything I'm doing. Yeah, I have no evidence for most of the things I'm doing is just believing and I'm flowing with the Holy Spirit. So as soon as your faith levels calm down, your cooperation with the anointing and your cooperation with the person of the Holy Spirit and your cooperation with the presence of God just goes down. It's true. That is why sometimes you can fast and there's no presence because you don't believe much. The more you believe in it without fasting, the more the presence of God is with you without even fasting. On this is pick on that fastest should receive, for the Holy Ghost was not their giving. You know and and and he that fastest as the Scripture said, out of his belly shall flow riven. But we we believe more in fasting because you see when your father say feeling, you have a feeling, you have a feeling, you have a feelings. It comes your whole being, your nose, your sinuses change your your stomach change every so many aspects of you change. You see it even it even affects your intestines. Yeah. So sometimes after fast, you can have a little runny stomach because the bacteria and all those things have changed because you have not been eating, the bacteria have modified. So it can cause another reaction. Oh, yeah. So you have all kinds of feelings. So those feelings really help your beliefs. And that's why a lot of times when we fasted, then we feel God is with me. God, no, no. Fasting feelings are with you, but not necessarily God. Feelings of fasting are with you, but believing rarely helps you to cooperate with the Holy Ghost. May you cooperate with the anointing of the Holy Ghost. Shabba Yeh Lama Baba Sulaba, how many do you have, 8, Eight, only 8? All right #9 this is one of the most important reasons why you need faith in the ministry. Faith in ministry is important because it helps you to relate well with God's delegated authorities. Amen. Hey, the man of God that God sends, you can only relate with them by faith. How many understand what I'm talking about? Glory be thy God, huh? Glory be thy God. Hallelujah. Now this is this is this. Get, get this and don't ever forget it. I'm talking about faith in the ministry. I'm talking about faith for ministry, Faith for working for God. It's true faith that you you can't believe in the people that God has sent, Jesus said in John chapter 12 verse 44 and 45. Jesus said. And Jesus cried out, he that believeth on me believeth not on me, but on him that sent me. And he that sent me seeth him. He that seeth me seeth him that sends me. It's a, it's a very amazing and important scripture for faith in the ministry. I'm talking about having faith in the ministry. When you are working for God, you need a lot of faith. And one of the main things is to be able to believe in people that have been sent. You see, when God has sent someone, Jesus Christ said he that believeth on me believeth not on me. It's not me you are believing on him that sent me, and he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. So you see, many times when you have faith in the one whom has been sent, that is actually the same as having faith in the one who sent him. Yeah. And many people do not believe in the one who has been sent because it's difficult to believe in the one who has been sent that he's telling the truth or that he is from God. So when you believe in the one who has sent it, often you find yourself almost instantaneously believing in God, the one who sent, the one you are believing in. Are you there? So faith. Look, I would not be here if I did not believe that Kenneth Hagin is sent from God. I have to. And I ended up believing in God. If I not believe in Fred Price, if I'm not believed in Benny Hinn, I wouldn't have a healing Jesus Crusade if I didn't believe in Bonke, if I didn't believe in all these people who God has used. I believe in them, as has Dua. But by ending up believing in them, I find myself rather believing in the one who sent them. But most people see the faults in all the people, so they can't believe in them and therefore they don't believe in God. Now why should God? Why should somebody ever believe when you have been sent, when you don't believe in men who are sent, then a man like you? Why should somebody believe in somebody with problems just like you when you can't believe in someone who has problems? Why should somebody not believe in you and accept you? So faith, as I relate with Archbishop Duncan Williams, I faith. I believe God made me. God made him come into my life, made you start a church, made me go there. That's a church I ever went to when I was born again and still is the church. That is the man of God that I knew when I came, he was the pastor. I was nothing when I when I went, when I wanted to speak in tongues and I said I didn't even trust that I was speaking in tongues. I went to see him. He prayed for me later and the thing, the thing went away immediately. I was not, I was not a pastor. If I'm a pastor, it doesn't mean anything. In medicine, we are taught to respect your teachers. They are taught to respect. No matter where you may be doctor whatever it is your teacher, the Doctor Who taught you is you have respect until you die, no matter whether you have doctor whatever. Oh yeah. I mean because you are also a. Pastor, you are preaching or whatever, like I will give you an example. I've given percenter from a cathedral and whatever it's an inheritance. It's an inheritance. It's easy for you. He never bought any land. He has never raised fast before to make build any cathedral, completed, painted everything with instruments, air conditioners, everything chairs everything free office. What about this of the Bible school? Everything complex. He has inherited a complex. So God brings the people you're supposed to. Believe in them. When you believe in, you find yourself believing in God. When you touch them, you finally say you've touched God, God told Moses. He said you will. Be to Aaron instead of God, and He will be to you instead of a mouth. So sometime I tell you something, you should believe it, you know, Let's stay. In all of this life, I've never told you anything directly. And then one day I come to and I tell you something directly. It must be very important to you. Think about it. Think about the. Whole of the life since you were born. You are 30 something years. I've never told you anything. And one day I come to and I tell you something. It must be very important to you. You must take it very seriously. Yeah, but you see, if Jesus comes, OK, I'm Jesus. OK, now as Jesus, I think you should do that. You say, huh, I'm doing it. But you will never see Jesus. You will see the one who Jesus sends. And when you believe the one who Jesus sent, it's equivalent to believing as if Jesus himself was there. That's the best. Look at it, Look at it. And he does see it. Me say the one who says, as you see, you are seeing God. God is standing there. Toby standing there directly. Talking to you. So pastors and people who are in the. Ministry need this even more than anybody else. You. Need it more? Are you listening to me? Amen. Wow. How many do you have? Oh, I just want. To give you just about 10. It's enough for the day #10 your faith is important because it's going to give you victory in your ministry. The upper hand first. John chapter 5, verse four and five. For whatsoever is born of God.

How many one who overcome? Somebody was asking me since my my. Parents not helping me, you don't want me doing the ministry. Overcome my faith. The things you believe will help you to overcome all the questions you are asking. They help you overcome through faith. That's it. The end of the day is what you believe. Believe, believe, believe, believe, believe. I see you believing. I said I see you believing. Begin to believe. Wow, wow. Things shabaya lema dabasundo Lobo kaba Hallelujah. Oh, let me give you one more you need. Faith in the ministry because through faith. Your prayers are going to be answered, God will answer. And as a man of God and a woman of God, I mean your prayers must be answered. Oh, if you're a man of God whose prayers are not answered is very serious because the Bible says that effect of heaven prayer of a righteous man has been left man. People come to see you for prayers. You must pray for people. People always want pastors to pray for them, isn't it so if your prayers are not answered, it's very serious. It's. Very serious for your prayers not to. Be answered as a minister of God. Hey therefore I. Say unto you, Mark, Mark 11/20. Four, when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you shall have them. Amen.
