16. Finish Your Course And Keep Your Books Close To You

Welcome to track #16 of the beautiful job. #45 finish your course Second Timothy 4 fight a good fight. That's why it's private. And as you say, I'm what violent Bishop is violent. So it's private, it's extreme. A church that we join is trying to make it into a fight one way or another, bringing fighting into it. So you don't, you don't say these things to the church. You say these things to the sons and the the pastors, the ministers. You tell them, tell at the end, we are a fighter. Do you think I can call ordinary church members and just pour water on them and I see them and they will be happy? How she's happy that I boil water. Are you excited? I'm very happy. Do so. Fight a good fight #4445. Finish your course. I've fought a good fight. I have finished my course. Everybody has a course. Your course is different from my course. I must finish my course. Yeah. There was a time when I I was moving along with some pastors and the time came, I realised that they were not interested in what I was doing and the Holy Spirit said to me, finish your course. Even if they don't come along with you, you fulfill your ministry. So if I all this and I preach to you, you don't do me. I'm finishing my tattoo. When they come in, they ask me something about some places and I say, oh, I had camp. I shared with them. I gave them 50. Somebody would have had just one session and given them five points. I gave them fifty. They didn't do it. So I'm finishing my course. You 2, if you like, don't finish your course. I'm making foolproof of my ministry. You like, stay and do whatever. I don't care. I've tried my best. I'm giving you the best opportunity. I said I've given you the best opportunity. What do you think, Alexis? True or not true? Now this place is cooler. This side is cooler. And those of us in the front who are actually sharing the word, we are suffering as you are enjoying at the back here, the front air conditioner has stopped working. It has completely given up. There's no remote. You just put it on. How about you guys are enjoying over here? Let's move the stage to this side so that those are the back who come here and experience what we have been experiencing. Wow, finish your course. Can you finish? Will you finish? Everybody has a different course. My course is even different from my wife's course. It's different from my children's course, my fellow pastors, associates. Everybody has a different course. Start and end with a different date. Just make sure you do yours as I do mine, you to do yours, and never let anybody prevent you from finishing yours. Yeah, when I was writing my books, at that point, my own pastors were not appreciating my books. So outside pastors began to appreciate and I started to go to them more because I'm willing to stay down and let my own pastors prevent me from finishing my course. Who is preventing you from finishing your course, Charlie? One day a certain pastor who felt God had called him to be a missionary and his wife said, yeah, yeah. And he told me, he said God has called me. He, he showed me the region of the world. I said I like, I prefer that I I, I when you tell me, I believe. But his wife said, yeah. She said I'm going to be promoted in my workplace in the next two years. I will become senior whatever in charge of whatever she said ingah she said. Then she said to me, you can go if you want. And she said you can divorce me if you want, but I'm not going. Yeah, yeah. He said because I told you when you were getting married that I will be with you and I'll support you in everything. So I'm breaking my vows. I told her, but now I say I can't go and I won't go, so you can leave me and go and find somebody. I don't mind. Because she knew that he being an A1, he will never do that. That is why she was talking like a trumpet. She was speaking. She know that he cannot do that. That is how people are. But I see you. You have to. Then he told me. He said whether my wife goes or whether my wife does he go for me? What? God has told me I will do it. And he went without his wife. Yeah. So you can be here. I'm gone. Yeah. I've finished my course. I've finished what God has told me. Even you cannot prevent me. And she knew she was hindering him. Yeah, she knew. That's why you've got to be careful when you are marrying. You think it is just marrying woman. Then she realised that her powers have come. That's when you see that you wish you were closer so that somebody can speak to your wife or speak to your husband who has an evil spirit has entered him. Finish your course, stars. See, one of the reasons why I just, you see, the reason why I let you sing is because I want to give you also an opportunity. I mean, I don't like groups. The reason why I don't like groups is because when there's a group, there's always somebody who is not around, and that always prevents you from doing what you have to do. Yeah, have had groups before. This one has not. This one has had a child. This one is no more. This this one is here. This one has gone. This one has dark exams. This one is sick. This like that always. That's why I don't like groups. So I just worked with either voice is the strongest. This is very good. I don't need all of you in that sense. But that's an opportunity. You can also decide to rise up and finish your course by your absence or your presence cannot prevent the ministry from going on. So take it as an opportunity. Yeah, it's just an opportunity that you are being given. You see, groups are very dangerous. You see, we, we we the doctors, we the people from we are. You will see when one person comes out of the group. We see that you are shaking. Don't think of yourself in groups. Oh, don't think of yourself in groups. Think of yourself as individuals. When I started Lighthouse, it was all with only medical students. There was no art student or anybody from Ligon. Yeah, myself and other medical students, we were all medical students. When the time came and I stepped forward, like all of them left me then it was people from Lagon. Bishop Saki, Bishop Eddie, my wife Emilia, Elaine, these are Lagoon girls and boys. They came. All the medical people left me. I was alone, I was the only medical. So you will see that as associates. I don't have doctors at a certain level because my mates, all of them responded. Will you now finish your course or because the group that you were moving with, this one has gone here, this one says his daughter, this one says this, one says this one says this. That's when you see whether you are ready called or not. So don't trust yourself in groups. Don't think also we are we the stars, we are all we the collarbone, we the doctors, we are class of 1990, we of 2000. And it's very dangerous. It's a very dangerous way of thinking. That's why he said finish your course. He said. I thought I finished my course, my personal course. Whether this one finished or this one doesn't finish, I've finished mine. If all the ladies are becoming beastly, you finish your course. Fathers have decided that they won't do this and this and that and that. Let's finish your course. Don't think in groups. Even me when I work with say, I don't like groups because even as we are here now, Denzel was here yesterday. Today he's had to go to write the exam. IMS couldn't come because he has whatever. Every time somebody this today like that. This is why I don't like groups. And I said I can never do what I need to do. The songs that they sang today either has prepared or I prepared with her. She she sing it on her own. He finished everything before we came to the camp. I'm just trying to include others but the course has learnt that groups don't work, it's individuals that finish their own course with personal convictions. Know that we we are all we are all doing what? Wait and see, God. I see. We just do Sulya and then you know Sulya. With the three wise men, with the young elders, with the half castes, with the Airways, with the MPPS, with the Ashantis of a group sonar. What do you think? Is it a good idea? Finish your personal course with God in the ministry? Don't look to the right, don't look to the left. Aha, I don't know, He seems to be saying it. The Lord is calling you. Please don't let the devil cheat you. You must listen to the Lord and you must work for him. I said you must work for him. It is Jesus calling now. It is Jesus. Listen, Listen and don't look to your left and don't look to your right. You will stand alone. Alone. When you meet the law on the judgement day, on the judgement day. So yeah, now you have the chance. The Lord is calling you. Please don't let the devil cheat you. You must listen to the Lord. You must work for him. Say you must work for him. Oh, you must work for him right now. You must work for him. Say I must work for him. Somebody say I must work hard, I must work for him. I must work for him right now. I must work for him. I'm not talking about a weed, but I'm talking about me. Say, say, say, say I must work for him right now. I must work. I'm not talking about a group, but I'm talking about me. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Say, I must work for him right now. I must live to heaven and testify. I must work for him. Yeah, yeah. I must work for you. Oh, oh, I must work for him right now. I must work for his sake. You know it. I must work for him one more time. Say you know it. You know it. I must work for him right now. I must. I must work for him again. I must work. Say, say, say, say. I must work. I must work for him right now. I must say I must work for him. Yeah. Say I must work for him. Yeah, yeah. Say I must work for him. Yeah. I must work for him. What are you waiting for? Say I must get up and work for Jesus. I must work for him. Yeah. Yeah, I must work for him. Somebody tested myself. Hello, this song was composed by my roommates. Yeah, my roommates. You see, you don't know everything, isn't it? And when I entered into the ministry, I thought he would be with me because I've been with him throughout all my friends. I keep my friends for life. I don't like breaking friendships, not even fathers friends. And I'm still still my friend. But I thought he would be in the church. But he never joined the church, although we were roommates and we were together. We act together, stepped together, went to study together. When the same study group, everything. What do you call the group discussion group and everything? Never joined, never supported, never helped. Even when the church became he was near him, never joined. Yeah, amazing. We played instruments together, we did everything, but he never joined. And I have to finish my course. It's not me and my roommate or you and your wife or you and your husband. You wait and see. When you marry, you see how different you are. Have you seen there are some elderly people that sleep in different rooms? Have you seen that there is a reason for that? Because marriage can become like this. You become together. This is a wedding. You didn't see the flight end. I should do it again. Order microphone for me spaceship. You can write it down and see. Pray, pray. And as we are coming together, we are coming with fire and force and energy and speed. Feeling. I'm sick of life. Who's my dreams? Jesus, My visions, my dreams. Fusion, Fusion, fusion, fusion, fusion, fusion, fusion, fusion. See that now they are sleeping in different rooms as it was in the beginning, and some. And sometimes in different houses. Yeah. So that they might they live in different houses and sometimes they might they live in different countries. Yeah. Is it not amazing? Is it not fantastic? So you finish your course and just plan to do it privately. The more you look to a group, the more you are doomed or down for decide. I will do. Whether others do or they don't do, I will do. Yeah, many years ago, asked Bishop Duncan Williams. I decided God told me to honor him. You see, Archbishop has been arrested, shaved before. He has been shaved by the government, put in prison, shaved. They have had different assassinations at them, different experiences. He has been one of the ridiculed and accused people in Ghana and some guests in the Lord told me honor him and I saw honor him. Whether anybody or not is not a group and I've maintained my stance. Maintain my stand. In fact, I was with him with the president at a point recently and I told the president that the Bishop called me, says we are going and we go. That's all. It's simple. I have my personal conviction. I don't care whether Bishop this or reverend this or doctor this beliefs or what they think. I don't care. It's not a group thing. It's my personal course. And I don't need your opinion, all your approval, all your involvement for me to finish my course. I'll finish it personally and neither do you need approval and whatever you need it, but you don't also need it. Approval of any partner, spouse, associate. Now I've had an assistant. My first assistant was a medical student and I sacked him. I said go go. I believe that God has called me go you go. It's not a group thing. It's a group of medical studies who are forming a church. You are downfall if you do that. Plan a solo flight. If you find people along with you, praise God. That's why I'm always grateful for the people who are with me. All the people who are with me, treat them carefully. You don't know when they came and why they are there. Yeah, all the people that are with me, there are many people who wouldn't have come, but they've come. They come the people, because I was on solo flights and they joined. All my flights are solo. The people who are with me have added themselves to my flight. So I thought I'm me and them. So that we have to agree. We don't have to agree. That's how your life and ministry must be. I will finish my course. I finished my fight. I finished my course. You don't finish your course. It's up to you. Is it clear? Sit down. #46 Do not love this present world. I'm showing you don't love this world. Second Timothy 49 Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me. For Dimas has forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica. Crescents has gone to Galicia and Titus has gone to Dalmatia, but As for Dimas, he has forsaken me, having loved this present world. Wow, don't love this world. This world is not my home. I'm just a. Pass through my treasure somewhere beyond the blue, The angels back on me from heaven's open door, And I can't feel at home in this world anymore. Oh Lord, you know I have no friend like you. If heaven is in my home, then Lord, what shall I do? The angels back on me from heaven's open door, and I can't fill that hole in this world anymore. Wow, this world. Love, don't love this world. One day a brother came to me and said I like money, I love money. Everything that is in this world. Let me tell you the things that are in this world, names, status, the pride of life. Don't love it. Cars don't love cars. Now don't don't tell anybody. You see, these are purpose. Now things. I'm telling you something private. Don't laugh. Cars don't don't like any particular car. Do you think I can say this in the Kodesh? No, no, no, no. This is a personal letter that Paul wrote to his son and told him that don't laugh. The world don't laugh. Any particular area to live in. So As for me, I must stay at airports or I must stay at is Ligon, Reggie Manuel Tasaku. Wow. No, don't love any particular country, don't love Europe. Those in Europe don't love Europe. Very dangerous. Many people have forsaken their mission by loving Europe. I told me I think that I'm from Europe because when I go, I feel very much at home. You see, there are a lot of shops and everything is in the shop. I feel very much at home there. One day I met a lady from Taco Adi. She told me. I thought that I'm American. Meanwhile she's from deep inside somewhere western region. I thought that I'm American. And she forsook her life in Ghana, her marriage, her children and went to live in America. Don't laugh. Things yell status. So are you a this or if you are not, I'm nothing. At first, when I used to go to a border and get some results. What what are you? I used to say I'm a doctor. Now I stopped saying I'm a doctor unless it's necessary and that's all. I'm a pastor. At first I was, you know, it's like a doctor is, you know, I don't need London, America, Switzerland, Germany. Don't like all these things though. Your ministry will never be fulfilled. Give us having loved this present well has forsaken me and somewhere he has left me. When you love this present, well, I cannot send you to charge. I cannot send you to Zambia, I cannot send you to DRC Congo, I cannot send you to where I really need to send you to. I cannot ask you to go to Nigeria because you love so many things. I love Accra. How do you love Accra? Where did you learn that? Find out from your neighbor what he laughs too much. It is dangerous. That thing that you laugh too much can take you out one day. I love fair coloured girls. Inside light. Do you know inside light? There's a light inside the person and the person has become fair inside light. I like a lot of shoes. I don't want to repeat any dress. Wow. No, Sally. You people are enjoying at the backyard. This place is Kulakra. No, I'm. I'm preaching from here so you can turn the light this way. Sally, let's stop this. The suffering is over. Don't love any particular thing. Yeah. I need this car. I need a house like this. I need this. I need that. You don't need it. Take that thing out of your mind. I need a PhD by all means. Who told you is your suicide? I need my MBA. Hey, you love this world and you are avoiding me. I want you here with me, but you've been keeping other company you can't sist too. It's plain to see you love the world and you're avoiding. Me you love the. World avoiding me. My word sits down upon your desk. But you love your books and magazines the best. You prepare the lights of your TV. You love the world, and you're avoiding me. You love the world avoiding me. Tell me, tell me, is it right if you leave me here? I don't like it tonight, but I love you the more and more. But you're fighting everything I'm working for. You're acting like my enemy. You love throw up and you're avoiding me. Oh oh, oh, oh, oh Bah Bah Bah. You love the world. These are the loves. They're hurting you. Don't you believe you. Tell me. What will you do? Or I get my blood to save your life. Tell me. Is it right? If you leave me? You're alone. I get tonight. I want you here with me, but you've been keeping up the company. Prepare the lights of your TV. You love the world, and you're avoiding you. Foo Foo Foo. You love the world avoiding me. Wow, you love the world, I explained. The world is what? Cars, houses, areas in the country, areas in the city, countries in within countries. Do you understand especially the western world is more wealthy and what else? Money, the pride of life is all these are the things which are guiding even past us today. Yeah, I tell you, I said the Lord has spoken to me about an international ministry that has sent the Spirit of the Lord is using me now until because of that, I will be going to the United States of America very soon for international mission that the Spirit of the Lord is sending me to now. And because of that, I want you to be in prayers and intercessions because I will be entering these new phases of my life and ministry. the United States of America, all of them are going to the United States of America. What about Niger? What about Ziggenshaw? What about Vanju? We have left all those places for Muslims. Yeah, it's like those places there. There are ghosts there. Other religions have free hands. Free hands. Once there's no money there and there's nothing great there, we cannot go there. It's true. We love the world and we are avoiding Him and where we are going, we claim that his ministry is actually the world. One day the Lord showed me a vision and the vision was a plate of feces and he said to me, you are this feces, you are smelling horrible, ugly. I don't like you. I said, why? He said, now you don't want to send anybody to do my work. It's only London and America and Switzerland where people can get jobs and have money and so on. That is where Lighthouse has sent people. And from that time I said no, I'm turning away from those places to where people cannot go. Well, there's no good job, but there's nothing good. Go there and live there till you die. In those days when they were going, the Micheners were going. They packed their suitcase, their handbag and their coffin, and you go with it and you die there. That's what it means to be a missionary. And if we do it, we will win the world for Jesus. But once you love this world, you will be avoiding it. You say. You come and say, my mother, my mother has told me that I shouldn't do that because I'm the last born. I'm the last born. I'm the last born until because of that, now I cannot amend. There are certain things a last born shouldn't do because a baby lasts. You have to be around for some time. In other words, you cannot enjoy. They say they cannot enjoy me as a baby lasts. No, I didn't write the Bible. This is a private letter. I wouldn't say that in the Kodesh and God is sending yourself going to South Africa. South Africa is just Europe. Who is this? Brother, brother, brother. What is his name? Ransom. Please come forward, Come forward. Come forward. Ransom. Somebody must pay for his salvation. Who is going to redeem him? Hey sister, who is his sister? Will you redeem him? What will what will you pay to redeem him? Look at the look at the firing squad is going to finish him off. What do you have to offer yourself? Wow. Come and redeem him. Greater love has no man than best. So he's redeemed, So he he can go. OK, so you are going. You are free. You are safe. You are born again. You better use your life. Well, she has not been redeemed, so now she's going to die for his sins. So she has to experience the the water that he would have experienced. So you are free now. Look, you are free. You go, you can't believe that he's free. You can't believe that you are free. Somebody has paid the price for you. And are you going to live your own way after this, After you have been redeemed with a life, after you have received such a salvation? Somebody has received all the bullets. The grace of God that brings salvation appears to you something. Your sister, your sister stood up and said, I obey with what? I'll play with myself. And she stepped forward. Now he's free and he's going, but he doesn't even know. Now he realized that he was supposed to go down. He doesn't know. And you are going back to sleep. You are going. I went for sleeper. Is that what you should do with your salvation after you have received such a salvation of going back to sleep again? I mean, he was caught practically. There was no escape in the very act. Look at how she has suffered for him. She's totally wet. Oh, nice lady like this, beautiful lady like this she has. Look at what she has experienced for him. And he's gone back to bed, Huh? This is the Messiah of this guy. He's not valuing his salvation. He's sleeping again at the same position. You should have gone on evangelism to all that, all those areas, but you come back to your old place. By now you should have been moving to the back where it's cold and they have not the light and the fire of God to tell those who are sleeping who are just in the same condition. Hey, he just went back to the old ways after his salvation was paid for, it went right back to the same old place. Wow, he got this picky room. OK, you may be seated. You may be seated, Messiah, you also want to be seated. OK, you are blessed #47 Keep your books close to you. Keep your books close to you. Second Timothy 413 this private letter. Now you can see when I say it's a private letter, all these parts are private. I mean your coat. The cloak which I left are through us with Capus. When thou comest bring with thee and the books, but especially the parchments. Keep your books. The books are precious. You see, a Booker is something like a message which is there. You can refer to it and find it again quickly. So there are many books. Many books have been written, but a time will come when you will understand some of them even better. You must never be without your books. Never. I never know when I'm going to need a book. Yeah. Suddenly the spirit puts upon my heart this book, and I start. So things. Books you think you've read already, you don't really know it. I must have read The Final Quest many, many, many times by now. Yeah, many, many. I've read it for more than 10 years. Continuously. The Final Quest, The Torch and the Sword and The Call. These three books I've read several times at least. The Final Quest I've read continuously for 10 years over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. When I feel like I feel like a prophetic feeling, then I I just go, especially the thoughts and the sword. I really like that book. It's a fantastic book to me. I just open a new pair and see if there's something fresh coming my way. Wow, are you blessed? Let's pray. Father, thanks for the blessing that you gave to us in Jesus name, Amen.
