Welcome to track #13 of the Bag of Seeds. Dates are just changing. The thing was, Sammy and November think right now. It has come earlier and it came to pass when men multiplied God. The sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair and took them wives. And the loss of my spirit shall not always thrive with man, for that is also flesh, yet his days shall be 120 simple finish, cut it down. Death is also a deliverance that God has introduced. It's true because if men were to continue living, people like Hitler will be continuing to live. Stalin will be living, Mounted Town will be living, Henry the Eighth will be living. All these guys will be living. Yeah, they will be continuing. So God had to cut it down because of the sin. That's why someone like Hitler, he was about 50 something years when he died. These people were to continue livings like nothing could kill them. He said the war, Saddam Hussein said nothing could end their lives. Yeah. So death in itself is also a kind of deliverance to shorten the stay of sin and wickedness on the earth. Yeah. He said he cannot cut them down. It's too long. You know, like that's shorten the contract when you realize that this person is very bad. He's polluting that just shot in the contract. I was going to give him 10 years and make it just a year. Let's end it after six months. Yeah, that's why it's shot in. You would shot in these contracts, get a contract to some guy very not doing something, spoiling everything. Shot in the contract, cut it out. So God comes with his seeds. So the seed into the life of the person and that saves the person from his death, from his sins. He said you shall save him, save, save us from our sins. The Messiah, he will save us from us. We are being saved from our sins. Our sins. Yeah, Jesus came to wash away our sins. The thing that kills us, the thing that shortening our life, He came to wash it away. There's only what. That's why we sing. That's what can wash away my sins. Nothing but the blood of Jesus. That's why we cannot substitute a message of the preaching of the word of the blood of Jesus on the cross with some adolescent manly OK steps to financial steps to getting goals that abundance increase. What can take away the real problem that we are suffering from the blood of Jesus. So the blood of Jesus is That's why when I when I'm preaching a crusader, I have to preach about it. And that's why my favorite Sabbath is salvation. Get a chance to preach salvation, salvation, salvation, salvation, salvation. I love salt. I feel so blessed to be saved. I feel so blessed to have a bag of seed on my travel to Damon. Go with the seed of the word of God. When you go to a place that you see the people fall sleeping in the sun dust. What are you talking about? We look at what can we do for this which we give them food, give them rice, give them biscuits. Oh, we came with something, something, a bag of seed. Can you tell them about the blood of Jesus, the cross that now 2000 years ago, on the hill far away stood an old rugged cross, the emblem of suffering and shame. And I love that old cross where the dearest and best for a world of lost sinners was slain. So I'll cherish the old rugged cross till my trophies. At last I'll lay down. I will clean hey to the old rugged cross and exchange it someday. Will you leave the cross? Will you not hold the cross like this, from which the blood of Jesus flows down to wash away the sin that is killing you softly, that is killing you clearly and definitely? Your sense of be and me are affecting your liver, affecting your heart, affecting your muscles, affecting your eyes, affecting your body, shortening your days, making you breathe shorter, and making your heart tired? Will you not hold the cross tightly? Will you not, will you not tell other people about this cross? I will, I will. And you see, you guys, you must help me to preach and I must help you to preach. That's why I'm not only trying to preach myself, but when I preach and preach and I become more famous, I will still not reach a lot of people. So that's why I'm trying to release you as part of this army of wild guys. Wild guys. Who said tell me I have a bag of seats? Oh, I don't know what work you do, but tell me. I have a bag of seats. I don't know the work you are doing. What work do you do? I don't know the work with me. I have a bag of seeds. I'm going around with my bag. I don't know the work that you do. I don't know the work that you do. But personally, I have a bag of seeds that I'm moving to and from here. I don't know what work you do. I don't know the job that you do. I have a job, and my job is my bag of seeds going around with the cross. Hallelujah, Amen. Amen. Thank you Jesus. He sent his word and healed them and delivered them from their destructions. He sent His word and heal them. My son, attend to my words for their life. Unto those that find them in health through all their flesh. Attend to your bag of seeds. Give your life for your bag of seeds. Amen. For their life and to all that find them. Amen. Hallelujah. So brothers and sisters, be admonished by these few words. Amen. And then you are going to be blessed when you carry your bag of seeds all around. Yeah. So don't try to make me. One day one of our pastors went somewhere to start a church and he said he was going to make a school, that he was going to do something. Relief. I said, look, concentrate on the work you have to do, which is to preach the word of God and build a church. Don't think of NGO and doing this and doing that. You know, the main work is that preaching. I know people are hungry, people are tasty, but I tell you can give them food and whatever, they will still die and go to hell. So we are trying to preach the weather and when we have the opportunity, we will still give them rice and anything we have, but we have to give them anything. You see, when people have malaria, there are two types of people. Every time people have sick, they have malaria. Some people want to take Panadol. What do you have here? Coco pandor Panadol. Coco Panadol. Yeah. Panadol. So I want to take Panadol. The Panadol. I don't believe in that. Panadol doesn't correct the malaria. Malaria is cured by a certain tablet that kills the malaria, but the panadol just makes the fever go down a little, the pain go down, it comes right back. So it's no point in sharing a lot of panadol when you are not solving the real problem, which is the multiplying parasites of malaria in your blood. So there's no point in giving people rise and this and that when the real sickness that they have is not being solved. Are you listening to me? Sit down teaching. Why teaching is powerful, Why sowing seeds is powerful? Amen. In Mark chapter one, verse 21, I'm preaching from the book church planting all the things. And I'm they're all church planting. All right, OK, you have the book, isn't it? And they went into Capernaum, and straight away on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught. And they were astonished at his doctrine, for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes. And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit. And he cried out, saying, Let us alone glory I got. What have we done? What have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? And thou come to destroy us. I know thee who thou art, thou holy, the holy One of God, glory to God. Now that man with the unclean spirit shouted, Let us alone. Who has called your name? But he said, let us alone or leave us alone. Your name has not been mentioned. Demon, this spirit of this spirit of that this was just preaching to the devil shall leave us alone. You see, preaching is attacking devils directly as I'm preaching is attacking devils in your mind. Yeah, devils that don't respect the word of God and that don't respect the preaching of the word of God. They are all being attacked by this message. It's not easy for them because as I'm preaching, I'm taking people away from secretarial jobs. I'm taking people away from bus being bus drivers. I'm taking people away from having cold stores selling meat. I'm taking people out for being butchers. I'm taking people away from being tailors, hairdressers, all useless jobs. Hallelujah. And I'm transferring you to become carriers of seats as a powerful as a powerful Amen. Welcome the sister to give us actually person Rachel to come for two minutes and then after that, oh. Yeah, What you have learned today. Hallelujah. Amen. Are you blessed? Very blessed. Totally excited. Yeah, that you are. Carry off seats, Danielle. Come and share something with us. Haven't heard your voice. All, all since we came to the camp. She's. Cool. She has something vivid. Something about this camp. This camp? Are you with me? Hallelujah. I didn't know where to start. It's, it's been, it's been amazing. Life changing. I mean, one of the things that that I remember is when Bishop was sharing the dream that he had about the man who was in the field and he was in heaven and he was looking for the fruit that he'd produced. And just in a small corner was the fruit that that God was pleased, that God was pleased with and that, you know, produced like a reward in heaven. And I feel that it's like, even though it look, it just looks like we're at a camp at the moment. And you know, we've been selected, we've been invited, but God, he's sending us out. Like it's like we're that small part in the field and what God has planned for us that like being a seed ourselves is like we're going to accomplish so much. And it's it's through the preaching of the word sowing that seed in us that has made us the seed. And it's like we can allow ourselves to be eaten just like Bishop said, that you can have a seed and, you know, like our money as a seed. And if we eat it, then, you know, it's just gone. You can't eat a seed. It's just sour. And it's like we can allow ourselves to be eaten by the different jobs that Bishop was saying, you know, you can be eaten. You can become a bus driver. You can become, you know, a dentist, you can become a lawyer. But we're the seed. We have to die. We have to, you know, become we have to be buried, we have to decompose and, you know, we have to become the preacher that that God has ordained us to be. So you're. Becoming a. Preacher, by the grace of God, to be a. Preacher. Yes. Charlene, you've been smiling since we came to the camp. Come and tell us why you've been smiling. Tasha, Are you ready for us? All I just saw Hallelujah. All I can say is that I'm just so blessed to be here. And I think it just came to a point in my life that I just knew that God is going to do something in my life. And I was just waiting to see when because I I just believed that I didn't have to sort of run to it. But I remember that if I just knew that if it's for me, it will come. Because yesterday Bishop was saying in certain places, you won't, you don't grow anymore. And it's like you've been in church for such a long time and you grow to a certain point and then just, yeah, then you just start going straight like that. But I. Believe yeah. But I believe that when you go out there and you speak to new people, it's like it really lights a fire when you become a missionary. Yeah, when you go out. There. Yeah, yeah. When you go on the mission field, Dominican Republic. Yeah, Yeah. So I just, I just can't wait to see what God has in store. I mean, I honestly, I'll be singing there fully and I sing for your. Husband before you preach. Oh, I'll see. He's told me already that I'll miss you all. But I miss you all but I But yeah, I think I'll be OK. Yeah. So. There's this brother. You've only been taking photographs. I don't even know who you want your name. Could you? Could you What? How did you come here? Come. Which church are you from? 2 Mile Rush. It's true. OK. I remember. I remember how you came here. OK. So tell us, are you becoming a missionary or a spectator or an observer? Really. To where we've been talking Africa, Caribbean, I mean, you just take camera, then you're taking photographs. Of us he. Came to help camera things he came to help with. By changing us. I mean the camp affected you as your vision changed. What change has occurred to you? It's changed. It might be a quite long, OK, very short photograph. What I can say is that by God's grace, what I've been learning from here is that I'm maturing and I'm going to go deep. I'm going to go deep. And I'm praying that by God's grace I'll give myself like a year or two. I'll go on the missing field. Change that scan. Change that scan Cudjo. Cudjo, 2 miles. Now teaching and preaching directly attacks demons. Amen. Is that not a powerful thing? That is why did you see this story? It's one of my favorite stories in the Bible. When Jesus went to preach in Mark chapter 1, do you call anybody's name? We just started preaching. Oh, then suddenly leave us alone. Leave us alone. Who has called your name? Who has mentioned you? I mean, who has attacked you? But the Word of God is like sobs going out in the Spirit. You get it. That's why the devil wants us to sleep during preaching. He doesn't want us to come to camps. He doesn't want us to preach for a long time. That's why, as demons have infiltrated churches, sermons are shorter and shorter on Sundays. Very short sermons where you cannot preach. Well, that's the characteristic of almost all churches. Yeah. Sunday services, shorter and shorter and shorter. And you see that people have come with some irritated expressions they don't want to. Yeah. So, ladies and gentlemen, it is fantastic. Absolutely. And it. Wow, OK look chapter 5 verse 15, so much more that when the fame around him great mildest use came to hear and to be healed. Amen. So you see there's importance of hearing and being healed. Is it not powerful to hear and to be healed to hear? To be healed? What do you think? To hear? To be healed, Yeah. Hearing means healing. Luke 617 And he came down with them. Amen. Stood in the plane, the company of disciples, a great mileage of people came around from the Sea coast of tyrants. And which came to hear him and to be healed. You'll notice that phrase to hear Him and to be healed. To hear and to be healed. It's a phrase that occurs throughout the Gospels. To hear and to be healed, Amen. And that shows you, are you listening? The power, Amen, of teaching to hear and to be healed, to hear and to be healed, Amen. To hear and to be healed, Amen. Are you listening to me? To hear and to be healed, Amen. Wow. That's why a church which multiplies CDs, Macanese DVDs, cassettes, videos, easy to hear and to be healed. There's always a difference in a church which I go, where my CDs and my DVDs and messages are. When I'm preaching, I immediately know the kind of place I am in. It's so different. You see the difference in the churches from what they hear and what they don't hear. You can just see straight up. There are books there. There are no books. There are CDs. They don't have mechanics. They don't. That's why when we go for shuffling, we ask, do you have a mechanic? Are you into the mechanic? Because we know immediately that there's almost like a sickness is going to come into this place, but it doesn't listen to the mechanic. But even when you are not at the camp, those of who are the camp, you realize that. So those who are not here, then how are their minds going this way? Because week rather we came. Now minds have been twisted this way. How much more those who are not here and then of those who are not there, how many will listen? That's why we organize root camps and because we know the effect of hearing to hear Him and to be healed. Wow, are you listening to me? Amen. It's powerful. Jesus always taught the Word. The Word of God is the root cause of your poverty. My son, attend unto my words, for they are life to those that find them in health. Jesus said in John 663 The words that I speak to you, they are spirit and they are life. Amen. Hallelujah. What is the difference between preaching and teaching? Now listen, there are different ways of sowing seeds. You can just cast, but there are times you dig like this, then you put it in and you cover it. So teaching is when you dig, you sort of have to take more time, arrange it properly, cover it properly and do it. Then there's another way, they just throw the seeds. Do you get it? So preaching is just like that. By teaching, you take time, takes more time. So teaching takes more time. And preaching just inspires us and we are happy. So when preaching happens, you have more inspiration and happiness. People stand up screaming, shouting, laughing. When teaching, you get it. Line upon line, step upon step. Amen. All right. Are you listening to me? All right. Any questions? My darling, you need to be up here. Whatever short song. Are not a shame of the gospel of Jesus Christ go in his power of salad. Salvation, and it's to everyone, everyone that believes it all. It's to everyone, everyone that receives it. He shall have ever stay alive and come to earth. Is a lamp on two bad feet. Here's a word.

No, we I got to change the gospel of Jesus Christ. Worrying heads ever stay in the light. Oh, oh, send to we. I'm not a shade. No, no, we, I'm not the shame, but the gospel of Jesus Christ for real hands ever land still alive. Oh no. We are not ashamed, we are not ashamed, or we are not ashamed. It's powerful.
