I'm happy now. Come on, come on, come on. Come on. Jay. I got I got rain. I got rain. I got Oh, I gotta rain. I'm on rain. All right, that I want us to look in our quest to remove shallowness is a quiet time. Amen. Quiet time. Seven things that happened during the quiet time. Number one, you develop the most important relationship of your life. Now, even though we are all dancing here, right? Everybody here has a different relationship with God, just like we'll all be dancing here. Everybody has a different relationship with me. Everybody's relationship here with me is different. Is it not true? And your relationship with Ellen? Stand up your relationship with this gentleman. Everybody's relationship with him. Is there anybody who is close to him? Yeah. So 1234 say that they are close. How many know him? I are not close to him. Is he a lot of people? And how many don't know him at all? And how many did not know his name before today when I called him Ellen, you see? Did you get that? Everybody look around and see. I'm going to do it again. How many are close to him? Where? Four people? No, the original 4. How did you suddenly become close? At the back? Just OK, You OK? How many? You are very close to him. Raise up your hand. It doesn't matter if you are a mother. You are very close to him. 12345678910 so 11. So if he was God, No, no. Keep your hand up. Keep your hand up. 11 people are very close to God, assuming that Ellen. What's the meaning of Ellen? He loves me. Yeah. Who loves you? It doesn't mean that he loves. It doesn't mean that God loves you. It means he loves you, the one who gave you the name. If he was worshipping an idol, that he is, that he is the one who loves you. That's what he meant. It's like Della. Della means savior. Savior of which savior? Yeah. So it's not necessarily a Christian name. It has a meaning. OK, Put down your hands. So 11 people are close to him, how many know him? But you are not close to him. OK, How many don't know him? You didn't know him, you don't know him. Raise your hand also look and see. So this all the same people who don't know God. I say those who don't know God, you know him, but you are not close to him. And how many didn't know Him at all? So today, when I mentioned his name, didn't know Him at all. Raise your hand, you see. So brothers and sisters, so those who don't know Him at all are the unbelievers. But amongst those who know Him, there are those who know Him, but not closely, and there are those who are very close to not few. So amongst us dancing here, those who know God very closely are very few. And then there are a lot of who know him but are not close. And then there are those who know about Him. I don't know Him personally. How many know about him? I don't know him personally. You've not really talked to him. Raise your hand. Yes, now the quiet time will help you to develop the relationship with God. Your quieter coming to church cannot help you much in that relationship rider. You may sit down. So before you can be a like us who will serve God, you need to have overcome the shallowness. And you overcome the shallowness by developing a quiet time, which is every day spend at least one hour with God, either the morning or the evening. But why the evening when you can have it in the morning? Why do it in the evening when you can do it in the morning? Like our sister who used to go to work at 5:15? Isn't it you? You get up at 5 and you go to work at 5:15. Obviously you cannot have your quiet time then, but you get to work by 6 and you have your quiet time in the car till when? Till 8? She has a quiet time in the car till 8:00 and then she goes to work at 8, Isn't it? That was before marriage, but now that you are married, you have destroyed her quiet time. Because before you came on the scene she was very spiritual. Between 6:00 and 8:00 she was with God. And since you came, do you still have those 6 to 8 quiet times? What was, what do you do now? You have your quiet time earlier and then what do you do between and after that You sort out your house. What about your house bank? You see part of the house or you sort yourself out. In reality, you sort yourself out. Let us stop pretending that she will be. She will be coming to wait on him too. I mean, I mean, I'm here to sort you out. My darling. I want to sort you out this morning. What will you have for breakfast, Honey? Is there anything I can cook for you? Is there anything I can do for you this morning? My darling? Charlie, you are an ordinary person. Let's us be ordinary. People don't like it when you are real. We always want to imagine something that is not the reality. Anybody's life. Those of you who are not married, you are all imagining when he comes from work, I will open the door and say, Darling, you may you, you may even, you may even come home after him, but you'll be asleep. So the most important relationship of your life, Catherine, is being destroyed like this gentleman has come into your life. So revive it, OK? Because the most important relationship that will make you deep. Amen. Wow, what a blessing it is to know the Lord. Can you imagine? One day God will say to you, but I don't know you, how many of you are part of Lighthouse? Raise your hand. You're part of that. Let your hand give a lot of wave. Give a lot of wave if you're part of Lighthouse. OK, put on your hand. How many of you are part of the kodesh? Give a lot of wave. OK, Put that in. How many of you love Bishop Dag? He would build. OK, Put your hands down. But I don't know you. I'm going to the convention. I'm going to. I don't have to go too far. I don't know you. Come, come. I don't know you. I don't go to the front. I don't know you. Love me. But I don't know you. I don't know you. I know you. I don't know you. I don't know. I don't know you. I never knew you. I never knew you, Sister. I never knew you. Please. To the front. I never knew you. Those of you going are going to hell. She's the only one. She's the only one who is staying in heaven. To hell. I never knew you. You love you love. You were part of that. But I never knew you said. Have you forgotten the best way to say that? I cast out devils in your name. I did this. In your name I did this. I was there. I never knew you. I never knew. I never knew you. I never knew you out. I know you. I never knew you out. Do I know you? You see she's forcing. You say I know you. I know you. But I don't know you. I don't know you. You say you cast out devils in my name. I say I don't know you tell you people if you joke, I tell you may go to heaven. You see that you were shouting. It is a great thing to say about. He never knew you, brother. I never knew you. Look at the people that I really know. 1-2 I never knew you to the front. I never knew you. Is it the idea that they are going to hell by themselves? Because they know that, Charlie, the way it is happening for others know. Oh, I know you. I know you. I never knew you. I never knew. I never knew you. I know you. I never knew you. Look at the congregation. You only know this. This is it. These are the people who have developed an important relationship. Look at the few that are left. I never knew. I never knew you. If I don't know you, I don't know. You cannot force it. Is this Francis? I I know you because. Because you came to the camp. Because you came to the camp and you came up there. You see? I know you. I never knew you. She, she there. She didn't even wait. Hey, hey. I know you. Hey, you see. And if God, Jesus starts to walk through the congregation and starts to say, I never knew you, I never knew you, I never knew you, I don't know you. I never knew you. I don't know you, I never knew you. Hey, Charlie sister, I never knew you. Well, why are you sitting there? I am not feeling well. OK, relaxed by having. When you say you don't feel well, it will not count. Hey, I never knew you. I never knew you. Why did you talk to me before? When have you talked to me before? To the front. Have you talked to me before out there? I've never. I've not talked to you before. To the front. Clear or from there. You say you want to come to heaven. Come on. Quiet time is when you talk to God. Oh, where you develop the most important relationship of your life. But I don't know you. Who is this? Do I know you? You are pregnant. Messy for you. I never knew you by in heaven there are no organs, so you cannot be pregnant. Look, is it possible? Is it possible that this is the true reflection of what God's knowledge of us and relationship with us is like? This hell is full of people who didn't know him. Who? Never. Abigail. Who is Abigail? Abigail. OK, go. Go back. I know Abigail. Is there anybody that you think I may know You. Well, what do I know? You. What? Do I know you? Kodesh. No. You see? You see my face. Oh, but it doesn't mean that I I know you. Yeah. You see, they're active in Churchill dancing, but I don't know them. That's what quiet time does. It makes you know the person personally. And that's what Jesus said. I well, you were casting my name. You were doing this, this, this, this. You say you love me whatever I did, but I didn't know you. I didn't know you. I mean, and I know all of you, how many love me. You love my preaching? Yeah. I don't know you. You love him. I don't know you. So there is a difference between I know you and I love you. I know you and I know you. I know you personally and then I know you're preaching. There are different things. So God wants to know you personally so he knows the ones who can even, you know, I remember I did say you like people who make themselves known to you. There is some, there is, there is a sister, she's actually coming to Ghana today. You know, I mean, I didn't know her before she was even from a Methodist Church before she came, but she forced herself to know me. Do you understand? She makes me even laugh when she said she said that when she comes to Ghana, she's coming to show me the number of texts that I have sent her. Wow, the number of wows because any time she send the text, the answer is wow. But she's not tired. She says she's coming to show me all my response, my wows. Yeah, she's not tired of the wows. So when I saw that text this morning, she said that is the speed of your answer was too, it was too fast and the wow. So anyway, when I come, I'm coming to show you all the Wows. Then I began to like him more. Yeah, you see, because I'm very. I can't even see the text. I mean, so I need classes to see Then those who change their numbers. I have, there's some people sending me. I don't know who they are. They change their number. I don't know what a number is going to do. Just say something, something. Who is this person? But you see the person is not annoyed. The person is pursuing to know you. I started to laugh to myself. There's something occurred to me to do something for the person when the person also comes. You see there's a certain favor that comes by even just being known. People don't know that. That's why those of you have made yourself deaf and dumb in the church. You will not learn to overcome deaf and dumbness with deep sea fishing with you will know people. You will get so many things that and there are many missionaries and missionaries wives abroad. They they don't they don't get, they will not get any of those favors or those blessings because they are all different them. It's true. But this one rather has come as a Methodist get certain blessings, favors because the person has left. And that's why I'm saying that it's even something that it become a blessing to you in your life. OK, come, let's have some beauty Queens here. Come one 2/3 3456 You see, as soon as the oh, why are you laughing? Are you not beauty Queens or you haven't bath this morning? We know you haven't bath, but don't worry. Don't worry.

OK. So brothers and sisters, you see, coming to the camp, coming to the camp even makes you known, being able to talk. So all these people, we sort of have a feeling and a bit of a knowledge. Now go, go back, go back. Stand right here. Now, brothers here, brothers here. Of all these sisters, perhaps one of them or two of them has occurred to you as a possible friend. How many have noticed one or two of them has occurred to you? I'm talking to brothers, talking to only brothers. Brothers, oh, brothers in front here. I'm not saying that you want to marry about as a possible friend, supposing in case you were not married, possibility isn't it. But before then, before they spoke, they were all similar. There's no act to tell the mind's construction in the face. So you see why you must do deep sea fishing. You must talk. Talk, talk, talk. Don't be quiet. Talk, talk, talk, talk. Relate. Smile as a sister, if you do what I'm saying. But when you married, there will not be less than 10 people who have wanted to marry that you chose. Yes you see this one want to marry this one want to marry this one at least 10. It's true by talking not that by just being there very and all these girls, the reason why even they look a little different. They are all wearing something a little bit. But if I put them all in a white gown today round like that, you will not know. And I give them all the same hairstyle, you will not know. So you get to know people when they talk. So if I was the king and I have to choose one of them and I look at all of them, I say I want to listen to them talk first. Yeah, Now that I've heard them talking, OK, I'll select. Then I say, OK, I'll talk more and see then after other things. Yeah. So when you don't talk and you're just. So I'm the quieter you are, the type who nobody will even want to marry, in spite of your beauty and your bottoms and your breasts. You don't like what I'm saying when you are preaching that you say the decent ones. OK, where I was trained in medical school. These are not vulgar words where I was trained there are no vulgar words we have to say all the time. So you people don't forget to I hope that one day to not happen that in heaven or at the gates of heaven Jesus will say you and lighthouse is true. But I never knew you because even me me, I am saying I don't know you. Bishop Saki, please do you know these people can't choose. I'm taking you as God. You are the resident Bishop of the church. If you know any of them, then you ask them to go back. But the ones you don't know that they stay here shift so that I can sit down. I'm coming to sit down. I want to see who will be left in heaven. If you know them then you just say go. Oh, some of our beauty Queens have been left behind. OK, go. Yeah. Go. OK. Go. OK, Go. OK, OK. OK, OK, OK. I think I finished my job OK. Uh huh. I should get you. Well, it's too late. Who is Bishop? I think you came to my office. I don't remember. I think I finished my way. This is not about you don't know. Come together. Those of you have remnants. Oh, we've tried, but you were still not known. So from today, have your quiet time. Even if Bishop Saki doesn't know about Jesus knows you personally. You are OK. So try to have your quiet and then if you are in a chat, the pastor should know you. Do you know some more? You are very stressed. See how they just may know Heaven. She says she knows you. This one I never knew you. How are you going to know Jesus? I can't hear you. How are you going to know Jesus? How many realize that maybe this is the most important part of the camp for for you to die Pan and they say I don't know you. I don't know you say, oh me, you don't know me Jesus, how you don't know me a lot me. I cannot make Jesus know you. You understand? You have to know him yourself. Charlie, you people OK? Pastor Fabi, is there any mate? And this are not lady OK? OK. You say what? No, you don't know any question. Yeah, try come to the front so that they see you even now cry. You are even here that you are hiding and you see that's the basis of the selection is being known. So you you think that you are just being humble in the church. That's like you are not known. Jesus doesn't know you. You don't know him. A camp guard, Johnny. You appointed him, but you don't know him. Angel Police. Angel police. Will you take them to outer darkness, please? Outer Darkness. Mercy. Yeah. I didn't know you. I never talked to you before. God says I don't talk to you. You don't talk to me. I never meet you anywhere. We have never had any conversation. Just me and you. We are talking. It doesn't happen. You talk to everybody else. You don't talk to me. One day I met a prisoner, a millionaire who had come out of prison. He said I became a Christian in prison. And I asked him, why is it that when people go to prison they become serious, spiritual? And he said because there is no more this. There's no people there that you know, so it's just you and God. So he did this. There's none of this. You have only this. We have gone. Yeah. So we are sometimes relating with friends and talking to people. But the most important person, you must talk. Try not to talk to anybody in the morning until you have spoken to God, including your wife or your husband. Try not to make a phone call until you have spoken to God. How can he be the first person you speak to in the morning? It's a phone call. It should disturb you. And the first person you are speaking to is a phone. You haven't spoken to God. Have you had any discussion with God? Now you are on the phone, sending texts, calling. Oh, try to talk to God first, and try to talk to God in a quality way. You and God do you get it first and quality. Amen. OK, those in outer darkness ask them to come through the back door and quietly re enter to their former position, since this is not real heaven and hell, but just as you see. Look, I've changed my mind. They should go back to outer darkness. You see, presumption they they feel that mercy will be granted. They should be in outer darkness. Sometimes we can go to pegatry for some time #2 Having a quiet time makes you develop. Develop the most important personal habits of all time, a regular time with your Creator. Amen. The most important habit is not brushing your teeth. Many of us rushed here after brushing our teeth. When you were woken up, your first thing was brush your teeth, but not your Bible, but your Bible. In reading a Bible is more important than brushing your teeth. The reason why I want to explain that Pepsodentin toothpaste, it was recently invented. Adam and Eve did not use toothpaste and they did not have toothbrushes, but they were OK. And also your mouth that is smelling, it is just when you start to eat or you start to drink or whatever, that smell will go away. So it is important to brush your teeth. But I'm explaining to you that you can live without brushing it, as some have can put peppermint in your mouth and be blowing along because even when you have brushed your teeth and you haven't eaten, your mouth begins to smell. The scent comes from the acid in your stomach and it flows out somewhere. You speak to somebody who has not eaten, you see that the fasting fumes FF are flowing. Forgive number so fast praying. Having a wider is a more important habit than brushing your teeth or bathing. So those of you who don't bath, if you have your quiet time, I accept you. Tell those in outer darkness that they may go to them and speak to them privately. Tell them that they are being forgiven, that they may return to their former estates from where they were cast out. They should humbly you put them in outer darkness and they move to the inner darkness. You know why some of us are saving the Lord? It's because of the songs we used to sing. We used to sing. It is a great thing to save the Lord. It is a great thing to save the Lord. It is a great thing to save the Lord walking in the light. Hey, it is a great we we sang it. We're so happy. It is a great thing to serve. You know, it's a great thing to prosper and to prosper and to be have money and to be this. It is a great thing to serve the Lord. Those of us who are pastors today, that is the foundation that we had. We will sleep fast. It's a sacred and I want to say to us pastors, it's those of you who claim to be musical worship, predece and whatnot. It's your response. Look at what I have done with Ida, the song that I sung, and they have become known and popular. They are all old songs and I've made it this main song in the church. The songs that the worship you were having just now, it can be the worship in our church. Why can it not be? Why do you let yourself be guided by whatever? Would it not be a blessing if the Czech members come and say it is second, they've come from Aveno, from here, from here, and they're all being to. It is a great thing to serve the Lord. It is a great rather than some of the things that we are singing and we can't even get the meaning of these Australian words that we are singing, Australian songs that we can't understand what exactly we are saying. What are some of these songs? Pierre? I don't want to what? Shout your name. I don't want to what? I don't want to stand your name and shout your name and shout your praise and for walk away. How does it go? How do you sing it? Don't understand you and shout your praise and walk away and forget your name for you. If that's all I do, it's nothing. Confess. To you, all I want is this. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's good. It's a nice song. That one is one of them. That's the most famous one. What are the other ones? I'm talking about the other ones. What are the other ones? That is another one that is famous. The same. Yeah. You see you as we are in the church now. Not say that example. So when I speak, it's like I am some extreme whatever, but rather the church has extremely gone astray. I'm telling you, you can't. You don't know resurrection, you don't know this, you don't know this, you don't know whatever. There's no feeling, there's no heart. It's all from all these things. I'm asking you for the examples and you are giving me the best example with which has the all I want is you, you, which is a good song. I mean, you can't say that the songs are not good or every whatever. But look, we are talking about, you know, the emphasis and the general trend.
