Welcome to track #18 of predestination. Maybe see that knowing your predestination to appear before a judgment seat makes you desire to be acceptable #1 knowing your pre, you're destined for judgment. When you come to school, you are destined for an examination. So when you come in, born into this world, you are destined straight for an exam. And that exam is going to take place at the judgment seat. So when you know what you are destined for, it makes you labour to be accepted. And that's what you see in Second Corinthians chapter 5 verse #9 2nd Corinthians chapter 5, verse 7-8. It says, therefore we are always confident, knowing that whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord. But we walk by faith and not by side. We are confident, I say, willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present from the present with the Lord. Wherefore we labor that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of Him. Amen. 99 and 9. Wherefore we labour that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted. Now when you get to heaven, will you be accepted that it will accept what you're doing? I mean, if you are trying to serve me food, you will be labouring to try to save me something that I will accept. Is it not true? Because very disappointing to labor and provide food for somebody and he doesn't eat it. Is it not unfortunate? Yes. So laboring for the person and then you are not accepted. One day a certain lady, she was very fat, and she entered a relationship with a certain brother. Now this brother had never seen this beloved before. He had only seen photographs, Internet pictures. So when she came and arrived and the brother saw her, the brother looked at her because he was a little smallish brother and this lady was far bigger. So he, he, she asked him. Why were you not expecting something like this? We were expecting something different. And were you expecting something different? Who expect and they've made it into an advert in Ghana. You see, the woman said. Why were you were expecting something different, Anna? Were you expecting something different now? This woman was not being accepted by this little man. She had come, she had traveled, she had done everything, but she was not accepted. By the little man, because she was too big for his comparative size. Because, you see, it's not easy when you're working with your wife and then somebody asks, is it your mother? Oh, I wanted to greet your mother. I'm telling you, Derek Prince, he married a lady who was over 25 years or so older than him. Yes. His first wife. Yeah. And one of the difficulties that he had in his marriage at a certain point was that people used to come to the wife after she preached and say to her that your son was very powerful. I really enjoyed your son's message. And it used to annoy her at a certain point in their life and their marriage. Your son was very powerful today. So ladies, as you are expanding, look carefully at the size of your husband. If your husband is mighty and mega. But if your husband is like a nimble antelope and you are like a hippopotamus, that is coming and your husband is just. You are expecting. Something different when you take one step. Boom vibration. Boom boom Jurassic Park. And your husband is coming like an antelope, Like a sprinter. We expected something different. But when you see God, when you see God and you appear before, you cannot tell God. Oh, God, we expected something different. You're expecting something different from me. Were you expecting something different from me on Earth? Anna. Miss. Aw, aw. Oh, God. We're expecting something different. Anna. You can't tell God that. No. Were you expecting something different? So this lady was telling the point. Why? What's? Pretty something different than that. One day a certain brother told me. About a beloved that he had, but he had never seen her before. So I said to him, brother, have you seen her before? I said no, I've seen pictures. So he showed me the pictures. So. One day I travelled and I met the beloved. When I saw her, I said I don't know whether the brother expected something different from what I'm seeing. You cannot appear, Babo says. No, we labour, whether present or absent, that we may be accepted. You come and say don't you accept me. You don't accept me. We're expecting something different and but could you tell Jehovah what we're expecting something different? Were you expecting something different from how I look? You can't do that in heaven. A certain brother. He did not see the beloved until two days before the March. When, When the story? Is not a true story. I will tell you that it's not a true story. Now when he travelled and arrived in the country where he was going to get married. He became sort of cool when he saw. Like he had drank some coffee without sugar but he became cool. So the pastor called him and asked him why was pretty something different, what is the problem? So he he he turned to the brother, and he asked him why he finally no. Fine, yes, he final, No, fine. We couldn't really answer at all. It's OK. They went ahead with the wedding. After the wedding, 24 hours later, they called them. You have to now counsel them. To roar. Yeah, they were a lion, which roars. By itself now it was being asked, Can you roar please? Something that roars automatically. They were expecting the lion to roar, but the lion could not roar. Because he was expecting something different. I. It was not a real lion. It's a zoom lion. A lion with Zoom South. Oh no, no, no, no. Now that normally rose is now zooming. So knowing that look, knowing that you are destined for judgment. When people don't think about that, they do all sorts of things #2 knowing that your predestination is to appear before a judgment seat makes you desire to do good things whilst in your body. Whilst in your body. 2nd Corinthians chapter 5, verse 11. Second Corinthians chapter 5, verse 10. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ. You see, that's the destiny. Your purpose in this life is to appear one day at the judgment seat that everyone may receive the things done in his body according to that which he has done, whether it be good or bad. Every one of us here is supposed to appear and that is your destiny. When I went to Achimoto school in for one I was destined for O level British O levels or West African O levels GCE. Do you by the way, have the forms for the healing Jesus partners those who want to be formed. Is it ready? Does anybody have was Rosling You are you are ready. You have it here. You have it OK. Thank you. Amen. Because I knew that I was destined for all level. I don't know what you call it in America. What do you call this exam? SAT. You know what you call it here? GED. Anyway, it's an exam, don't worry. Look, it is where I come from, it's an exam. Where I come from, there is an exam called O level please. And because I knew I was going to do that exam, I prepared for it. Now I had colleagues instead of preparing, they were doing short put javelin, 100 meters, 200 meters long distance, 1500 cross country. But the judgment of the O level is not based on cross country or morning trotting. It's based on physics, chemistry, biology, maths. I did 7-8 subjects and I had 7 ones. I had one in physics, one in chemistry, one in biology, one in maths, one in AD maths, literature, everything. One except one of them. I had two Yeah, I was prepared, but I I didn't do javelin shot put. 1500 meters, 800 meters. No, no, no, no, because all that was not part of the O level. You, you must do things which are in the exam questions that are coming, not just things. Just do activities. One of the places that most. That parallels. That parallels eternal judgment is a school in Ghana called Achimoto School. It it used to be the best, but it is no more the best. A Chimoto school is a school that a lot of people attend, but there are. So many activities in the school that if you are not very focused. You will not do well. So even though it had the name Prince of Wales College and the presidents, most of the presidents of Ghana have come from that school. The problem with that school is that. There are so many activities, so when you send a child there who is not focused, he doesn't do well because where school, you've come early in the morning, they'll come and wake you up for morning trotting. Hey, you're already. You are tired. You are not used to waking up at 5:00 AM. Now they're coming to wake you up at. Four to run. Where a car drives, they're running. So we have, what do you call it, cross country. We run through a forest running and you cannot even run. If you cannot run, you cannot run. When I went on that thing, I, I started walking. I said, could you run? You run a bit, you start walking. Cricket, we're playing cricket in that school. Cricket, Everything that is done in the world, we do it in that school. We played volleyball. That's how come I even know all these sports when I see them played. I know how it is played. Volleyball, basketball, hockey. One day I was playing hockey. Somebody whacked my leg. And almost removed my foot and they took me to the hospital. In an ambulance. Yeah, hockey. Swimming school. Farm. Clean up campaign symposium cadets, they said, there's one of the ladies in my office. She works, She has shot shooting guns and she was a cadet, she was a soldier. She's shooting guns. She knows how to shoot guns and everything. She has been a cadet in that school can assemble and disassemble a gun cadets symposium Founders Day we we learn a traditional traditional dances and. Whatever for? Founders Day general inspection. Then we do opera. Opera. Gilbert and Sullivan, Pirates of Penzas. And Mikado, these are operas we sing. Then we have choir rehearsals. We learn different, different songs, different choir song, you go. Then we have hymn practice only. I mean, the whole school has gone to learn hymns. Then we have Founders Day celebrations. We rehearse. We practice. Tribal meetings, that is what tribal meetings like. The girls will meet, trees will meet, panties will meet whatever tribal meetings so that you know your tribal. Dance. Then we have Sunday Chapel. You have to wear your dress, your your, your suit, your clothes, traditional dress. And that was against Scripture Union and that was again. Morning worship everyday drama club music club I was doing a BRSM piano lessons violin in the school ABRSM exam grade one to grade 8 an exam now come from England and white man who come and do piano lessons squash squash squash courts in the. School. The school was modern Europe, I tell you. Scrubbing. Then I was scrubbing. Scrubbing of toilets, scrubbing of showers, terminal cleanings, scrubbing with sandstone. All kinds of things. Compound cleaning, Classroom curator fatigue, siesta. All kinds of things. If. You are not focused. You will never do well in that school. And I remember when I used to study, people were even laughing at me. And that is what I'm trying to explain. And I read as a parent you realize that. There are some children you should never send to such a school. There are children you have to send to an enclosed school, a school without a lot of activities. That is focused on learning, just studying only. If it's girls only girls then we have gating boys and girls chatting and interacting. We have prep and then visiting hours. What is it Visa when we go out exact? Oh, no, no, no, no, no. That is how this life is. But the Bible says that because we are going to appear before the judgment seat, everyone is going to receive the things done in his body according to what he had done, whether it be good or bad, we are going to appear there. So since, you know, and me, I started to like for my O level and I was one of the top in the whole school for both O level and A level. Yeah, yeah. Charlie, all this running this, this, this is when I go to. I said no, no, no, no, no. I'm not yet to run. At this day, at my age, I cannot run. I have thought when I was in Form 1 and Form 2 the same morning trotting this you are forced to go. But when I got to a person at my age, at my age, I cannot do this. Swimming, this, that, that. No, no, no, no, no, no. Farming, cricket, hockey, soccer, in the house, competition into this, whatever. Oh yeah, I've been always moving around. So that's how this life is this that everything get built in my house. I said my school, that's my PhD, my MBA, my MBDS, my dad, Dad, my husband, my child, my this, my dad. Black. They're the real 1. It's not done. Then you come out of the school, you have no further education. It's true. When I went to medical school, from my class, only two people came to medical school from AT motor school our time, only two. Yeah. Now you don't easily go to medical school, but people from presec go, Yeah, they, they, they, they don't do anything. Just focus. They came to learn. They came to go go further. So you see more people from that school going. So brothers and sisters, you must focus on your main work. Amen. Are you there? So as you are here, what is your aim? What is your goal? Young people, if you are here, you are young. Stand up in your 20s. If you are 30, please, you are getting to a setting is 20 and below. Yeah, 30 and below. Yes, look 30 and below. Very soon, very soon, certain things are going to meet you and those things are going to take away your focus. When you're in school, you're only supposed to learn. But after standing on all the cricket, hockey, soccer, symposium, founders, day travel meeting, what are you into colleges, into houses, into this, into that. And people will be giving you funds will be singing the boys are good, the girls are beautiful forever more. They will be singing and you it will be going into your head. The boys are beautiful, the girls are good. The boys are good, the girls are beautiful forever. But what do you mean by that? The boys are good forever more. We are happy people be prisons your child is going to social and so much Montessori school hey. Did you come into this world to poo poo to we, We? Is this your vision? The earthly functions of your of your life are not the vision of the purpose which God made you and brought you. Into this it's a basic function, but that's not the reason why you are here so young people, yeah, I said they're serving God by the age of 25. I was a pastor, Yeah. And I've been on the. One logo line like this. Yeah, I don't like two things or even food. If you give me food, is it that my those who sometimes give me food that I'm easy to feed in an aspect and some aspect I'm not easy to feed and the acid I'm easy to feed. If it is working, I can eat the same, the same food every day. I don't have a problem. Why is it wet? We can eat it. I don't need to variation, just flow in the grace. Flow in the grace and some people they need variation all the time. One way. That's why gospel one way when I found him. I don't need economic whatever. This this this the whole 1. Line. Of gospel preaching from the best time I started to know Christ and I'm on that line. Please God and follow him flowing all these other things. It doesn't mean much to me. So if you want to appear before the judgment of God and be happy, then Charlie focus when you're a young person look focus. Young girls don't sleep with boys who most boys who sleep with any boys who sleep with you you see, there is a certain mystery it's it's mystery that makes you attractive it's. True. Mystery makes you attractive, Yeah. When you allow the mystery to go, the attraction goes so as you are with the boys, learn how to be like the Virgin Queen of England, Queen Elizabeth the First. She never married any of the men who wanted to marry her. She kept them coming after her. The brothers of the King of France, the Duke of Sweden, the Prince of Belgium, different all the nations, Duke of this, this of that in England, Dukes, all kinds of people that she just kept doing whatever like that. She never married because of whatever reason that she, they were all interested in her. So mystery keeps you attractive. Oh, you are a young girl now you've come to just, I mean, remove your clothes, remove it just now because you, you say you are in love, you are expressing love. Well, now those who are married, whether they have been expressing love in that way in the house, ask them whether that is the true way of expressing love. You see their faces when they are roaring. It's a chore for them. It's a chore. They are waiting for the whole thing to get finished. They are praying, hurry up, there are some, there are some. There are some ladies who even tell their husband, look, just get up, get on with this thing and just finish it. Just get on with this are taking too long. What are you doing? And there are some who have found strategies to shorten the whole thing. Strategies and devices methods, Strategic moves. Counter motions, just and all these things. Now you say you are going to express love. Your mouth. You are going to express love to. Who I love you. You know what it's like, It's limerance. It's not love. Love once your mind is not working well, you are not in love. Will is not involved. So you are going from here to here. You don't think anymore. You are just most. I feel it. I'm going to do something. I need to see her. I need to see him. I need to. Call. Oh, I can't wait. Cannot follow something like that. You take your whole life, that thing will evaporate. It has been said that so-called fall in love express maximum two years it lasts. And when you're having an affair, a secret affair and it goes a little longer than two years, about two years and maximum all those oh, I told you they're joking. I'm talking about statistics, statistical reality, maximum. Of two years I think is gone. And you are left with real love. But I love that person with your will, your mind, your. Heart. And your. Whole. Being consciously, I like this person and I will maintain my liking for this person. So lots of people mind. After that I say I didn't know that, you didn't know what this. That is why we said that. Don't you put your mind aside and move forward. Put your mind on the table and you are moving when God, it's supposed to be on top of your head. You put you've taken the mind out, you put it on the table and you are moving on. I'm going to manifest Laugh. I feel laugh. I feel laugh like joking. Are you there? Yeah. So young people focus, focus. There is a stage at your life you must declare. I will not marry. To cut off all possibilities. Because when you entertain the possibility of marrying at a certain age, before you realize, you see that all kinds of idiots. Idiotic, Idiotic. And using you as experimental, they don't even remember you. A lot of boys don't remember the girls they've slept with. It's true, brothers. Is it true or it's not true? They don't even remember that. They don't even get that. So I stepped. With some girl that I don't know, I don't even know her name. I don't know her name. You see, in America, in America, these pastors and then some of the people, they, they like to cover their true identity. And this is these people here. But in London, England, you see, they'll say Bishop is true. We are the ones. Oh yeah, they, they, they, they don't want us to know them of the olden days. One day I went somewhere with a certain brother. When we got there. The. Pastor said I was introducing the people, so this is this, this, this. Then I got to that, brother said. He just said I know you're the person. I beg you, I beg you. I beg you. I beg you don't speak, I beg you. I was into this is this is brother so this is sister so this brother so this. I know. I beg you. I beg you don't speak. Don't say anything. I is, but I knew. You from those days as you are moving with the. Pastor, now I know you of oath of ancient times. We met in Egypt. We were in Egypt together. So focus. Before you realize you've got a long list of long lists and a high priest cannot marry you because when you read Leviticus and he sees the conditions for marriage, you can say, ah, Benny Hinn said, you know, he was going to marry a lady. Yeah, he was going to marry some girl. Then he went on a trip. He was going with her somewhere. Then he found out something, he said. She's the scratchy, she's not clean. She's not clean. And the girl was upset. Why have you become so cold, Jeff Benny, why have you become so cold? You are so nice, become so cold all of a sudden he had discovered that you are not clean. So focus brothers. By means of a harsh woman, a man is brought to a piece of bread. Small ministry that you do if somebody is entangling you some dangling breasts and bottoms. They are deceiving you. Deceiving you. Shimmering. Things all over the place. I shouldn't say it. I want you to understand the preaching. He was saying certain things and mysterious. I'm not saying nothing mysterious about what I'm saying. I want you to understand I'm saying what I'm saying. Charlie, when you are younger, there are a lot of desires. Hey, feelings. Brothers, how many have had some of those wild feelings? Hey, pray for us. So, sisters, we. Could be pray for us, it's not easy. For us, it's not easy. For us in this world mess, you know, Guicho said that when he was a young man, he used to pray to the old so that all those feelings will go out of him. A nice person who is called like you and you see that Satan will send somebody to come strange woman with a. Bad character who only dresses when she's coming out and in the house. You go and see the behavior, dirty woman, dirty ish. Because you reveal to you how they behave in the house. More than animals, some of them. It's true. Look, when I was in university, I went to the one of my surprises. You know, in life there are some things that are like my surprise in English language was a word prodigal, but one of my surprise when I went to the ladies. Hall. Water Hall. As somewhere entered the hall said the place is smelling. So I used to think that maybe some animals come from outside or something comes from my back when you see the ladies come like that. You cannot imagine that this smell is coming from these. People, but you'll be surprised if brothers, we are so impressed because all that you see is the outside. A lot of people are disappointed. You have to be counseled. Yeah, we're expecting something different. So we of course, we were expecting something to be based on how you behave in church, how you dress in church with all your chains, necklaces, baths, shoes, your face is whatever. We never knew that You don't bath. You don't bath. You are expecting something different. Of course I was expecting something different. I was expecting you to bath. You say the new thing that they like, but they don't like bathing. Last year I was at a camp in a, in a certain, in a certain country, in a certain country. And after I was just chatting with some of the people after and I told them about Bath and then they, we are close in the evening. They all went to their rooms and all that. Then when the next day they were with me, they were some of them, you know, just a small group. Bishop, you say? When we went home yesterday, we were all saying that what Bishop was saying is true. None of us is bathing. None of us is going to bath today. So what he's saying so that he's just saying something, but I bath. Earlier and you have gone out sweating, smelling days, days, days come like that manifesting. Keep looking at me. I'm saying what I'm saying. I mean it. I'm taking my time. It's all part of the camp predestination and I was expecting something different than that. We expected something different than that of. Course, I was expecting something different. So focus so that you know you don't lose your goal, your calling, anything. Got when, when, when you're going to marry. God has to say marry. God has to say marry this person. Don't marry unless God shows you a person to. Pray, pray, pray for a long time. Never follow beauty. Oh, don't follow beauty. Don't follow beauty, dear Charlie. People are very, very. Conscious of outside appearances, you may be surprised at how they are like at home. Because the inside is so somewhere. They have specialized on the outside. They're making up for the inside. We want natural people, natural just how you are. So are the reals color of your. Skin, the skin as you see the stop the real stop your real skin. When sisters are going shopping, you often see them going to buy 90s and other things that they wear in the house. Always they are buying something to check for outside, whatever. That's all what they buy to show and they said we are going shopping something to show outside or whatever. So brothers and sisters, listen to me. I'm sharing you the word of God. Young people, don't let your eye go. Hey God, just tell yourself I will never marry. That's all. Then when the time comes, if the time cannot, God puts in a in your spirit, marry, then start to pray and if you are a lady, don't attract a man with all these outward things. As soon as you go home to the house and then you change, you see that this place was picked. It has. It came downstairs. It's a different thing. It's a different thing, so different. This is not what I was saying. Something that is yet has come down to you. Are you listening to me? Focus. Pray before you marry. Pray when you see a nice. Person say love, show me what I don't know, Shiba boss, when you see the nice person, what say love Reveal, reveal, reveal, reveal. When somebody looks too beautiful to you. And too I can say Lord save me, save me, Lord save me, save me and I shall be saved. Heal me and I shall be healed. Actually a man of God, a man of God that you don't have to be attracted by beauty. You have to fear beauty. You seem beauty, you must fear useless then, for the Bible says beauty is vain, beauty is useless, you must fear. You see a person say God has called him to be a pastor. You see what he's following. The first sign of the person crash will make you afraid. Look at the way the person see that the person has actually prepared to come. That's what you are after when you see so much creams. This, this, this, this. My sister, wash your face before you come. Next I wash your face clear before you come. Yeah, I don't like such things. When I see I'm afraid of such people, I'm afraid of such things. You see, the person is very nice to you. Start to be up a lot. Whatever is coming, that is about it. Save me, love, save me, Jesus. Jesus, save me. Just get up. You are following something that is nice, something that has been prepared for you. At your age, you should not be deceived by such things. Do you hear me? I say at your picture. I say at my age, I cannot be deceived by such at your taste. You have to look inside to see something nice. It's true. I'm telling you I'm I'm saying I'm talking to you. And because I tell ministry by 25, between 25 and 30 it either starts or dies. How you will be 25 to 30 by 30 your ministry starts. So, so when you are 25 to 30, that's it how you behave all that time that's after that it changes. You can't really change much again. So try, try, try. Believe me, if God has called us, I'm preaching predestination. This this. Decide it early. By setting age, you should be out there. This is what I want to do with my life. And then your your focus is like people say, are you mad? Are you this? Are you not this? Are you? No, this is what I want to do. This is all that I want to do. I want to please you and God has come. I want to do that. I'll do it all the time and I. Started in the ministry, I tell you 25. By 26, I was married, 26, I was a pastor. I was a pastor of the same lighthouse chair that you are in. I was doing. By the age of 29, I we had bought the cathedral. I was 29 years old when we moved into our cathedral. I was, I was in my 20s. If you are in your 20s, I'm telling you I was in my 20s when we had the cathedral, 29 to be specific, had a convention. The first convention I was 29 years old and we moved in there and I was still 29 years old when we moved in there. After some, after some days, then I became 30 and I started my ministry. So as it starts early, the Levi's had to be 30 years old from 30 to 50. Joseph was 30 years before he started. He became Prime Minister. Jesus was 30 years. He said he began to be about 30. So you see, that's why you see that from a certain age. That's why I said that at my age. I'm not here to come and tell people to be full time because I know what what I'm talking about. There are some of you that you can be full time, but if you do it, you do it at a point. At a certain point, you cannot do it again. A special grace will have to. Of course it's possible by the special you need so much extra extra, extra humility, extra this extra, so many extra spiritual races are you there? And pastors what I'm. Telling, saying is the truth, so preach the same thing. No if if if it is, don't change and modify it to let things be like how you are. You must be able to say, look, don't be like me. I was able to say, you know, I took a decision like this, but this is better. Hallelujah. Yes. You don't know. And not everything has. The school that you went to must. Everybody must go there. No. The school that I went to is not the school that my children go to. I am doing what is good for them. I want them to go, even though there are sometimes places I would not have gone myself. I want them to go. I didn't go, but they should go. Are you there? I hope you are listening. So focus, focus. Otherwise on the day of judgment, you'll be surprised when God says when you arrive, you know, sometimes you get to a plane like I don't like, you know, American planes, the air Hostess and so they are quite rude and whatever go to the European ones, they are less rude or they are more polite, less will depend on the country. The Asian ones are more polite and more what I mean, the Asians, they have their things amongst themselves, you know? But you, you go to a place and suddenly everybody's has an attitude and you, you see me. And that's what's going to happen to some of us. We're going to arrive in heaven. And it's like, why is nobody smiling? Why is why is why, why is there? But I thought they said there will be a reception. And why is there? Why is where are the angels? Where? Is, I mean, there's no happiness and what we're expecting something different. And now, yes, we were expecting something very different. Of course we were expecting something different. God was expecting far more from you because you were at the camp. You were there, you had, you had, you were laughing, but it was true. You knew it, but it was true. God spoke to you. God called you. Some of you got called before you were born. God called you and you come to you. See Variety have. Why, why, Why is that not, I mean, like, rejoicing? Why, why, why is there something wrong? So yeah, there's something terribly wrong. Terribly wrong. We're expecting something different. I'm like, yes, As for heaven, they would tell this girl they couldn't tell a West West, but this something they would he finally, no, fine, he couldn't say it. Well, fine in heaven when they were expecting something, yes, we were expecting something completely different from you. There is a guy in our church, one of our churches in England. He has a vision. Every time I ask him say your vision you must say if you listen to the Makana you would have had. When he had a vision, he was then he died. He went to heaven when he caught the whole lot of angels and people harassed. Why? Why didn't you do? He wants to relax. Relax. They were all on him. Why you have this? You had. Why didn't you do so? Look, please be like this plane. This is a no. Tell him wow, how couldn't you have done it? Why didn't you do? They were facing him, but you were just coming. He was like no. Tell him. Why did you leave me? I said. About why you were told you had this, You had this. Why didn't you do? Didn't you do this? So I was doing that. Let me explain what they were not interested in this. They were so bored with him. Oh, that's, that's how heaven will be. You come and say that's why I'm always praying for myself, because I, I, I, I pray. She got what? What? What do you want me to do? Am I doing it? Yeah. Because it's not only who is in trouble, I'm also in trouble. I'm seriously also in trouble. Praying for myself all the time. Yeah, we are all. When I say trouble, I mean. We are in need of, of of. A certain accuracy in terms of the will of God. We are in need of a certain accuracy. Amen. Are you listening, Tikko? Are you listening? Does it mean anything to you? What? I'm preaching a whole lot. Yeah. It's very important. Listen to it carefully, because. You are destined for. You are headed like a bullet. You are going still. There will be no other care that you stand there. I mean it's. It's as. It's as clear as. Day will follow night. It's where you are headed for your destiny is the judgment seat of Christ. So if it's a girl, I've had friendships when the Lord said this friendship will not help you, will not help you in your calling. It was gone of forever. Yeah, I've had close friendships. So this will not be this will not be my will for you. It was finished. Look, what you are headed for is very serious. He says, therefore Bible says knowing therefore the terror of the Lord will persuade men. Amen. Number what? Sit down, knowing your predestination to appear before a judgment seat makes you desire to persuade men. For we must all the same best we must all makes you desire to persuade men. We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that everyone may receive their things done in His body according to that He have done, whether it be good or bad. Knowing therefore, what number are we on Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men. So you want to persuade people because of the judgment seats winning souls telling them Did I show you that? Tell them, telling them winning souls. Amen, number six. Oh sorry, what was I telling you? Persuade men #4 makes you desire to do everything knowing your predestination. Your predestination is what to appear before the judgment seat and knowing that predestination makes you want to do everything to please God, even even even being mad or being abnormal. Verse 12 verse 13, verse 13 where that put in an American Bible, whether we we commend not ourselves again to you to give glory, Amen American American NASB or if we are beside ourselves, it is for God. If we are mad, it is for God. If we are of sound mind, it is for you. So madness. If it involves madness, madness. If it involves madness for God, it is better you do the madness certificate if you need a madness certificate to please God. Shall I go? Go and get it. Even if it looks like madness, it's. Better to do the madness. When I left medicine and I came to be a preacher, it looked like madness, isn't it? But I'm telling you, as I'm approaching eternity, it looks like wisdom. It is for God. One day one of our church members, it was Friday and the professor asked him what are you doing today? He said I am going to go to church. What are you going to do at the week Is I'm going to go to church? And then the professor said, which church? And he said Lighthouse and he said who is the pastor of that church? And he said duck, he would meals. And the professor said he started laughing. He laughed and laughed and laughed. And this guy who is still in the church told me that he asked the professor why? Why are you laughing? What is it? And he said that he want milk. Is he normal? Is he normal or is he mad? Yeah, I'm telling you, it's not that I made. I'm not making up the story this guy told me. And he's in the church today. I can show him to you. In the church, He said they asked me is he normal? So I tell you, it looks like madness, but it's not madness. It is not madness. It is wisdom. But even if it is madness. If the Lord. Tells you come and stand on the state naked for me. That's what I want you to do. You will not do it. Charlie, get to the job before you arrive at the judgment seat and start as he was putting something. Different than that. What is it that he wants you to do? What is it that he wants you to do? Does he want you to? Give your house. So hurry up and give it up quickly. Hurry up. Does he want you to give your car? Get to the job. Does he want you to give your life? Get to the job. Does he want you to die? Get to the job. Whatever it is, do it. I tell you, a real person who wants to serve God, you can never marry based on beauty or handsomeness is based on God. Terry, Chris, his second wife that he married after his first wife, she was in a wheelchair, she had a severe back problem. Everybody was again, he said. God wants me to marry this woman. God has revealed to me that you marry this woman. And he married her and he stayed married with her till she died. Yeah, that's what he believed. I think that a most spiritual person, you will never, if you know what is life and what is you will never look at her beauty to marry somebody. See, God says I should marry this person. Of course, if your husband is dead. And my wife is dead and God tells me I should marry you. I'll marry you. Yes, I'll marry you because he says I should marry you. I'll marry you What? He tells me to die. Even if I don't want to marry, I'll marry you even if I don't like you, I'll marry you. You know I don't like you because he said, hey, what will you do? What will you do? If it tells me, if it shows me an auntie in the chat with even can be my mother. I said that this is your wife. I said yes, Lord, I say you are marrying this woman here. I want you to bury somebody who is like a mother to you, to mother you. Well, not you will not do it. You will not you get to heaven. Who expected something different? Were you expecting me to marry something else, somebody else? And now what do you mean? Anything that he tells you to do. Just do it. You do it if we are, if we are, if we are beside or if we are mad. It is for God. So many times that have taken it trauma if. God tells you marry this prostitute. This is some of you. You are more righteous even than God. So God tells you marry this person. Say, why not get to the job now? I said. I'm telling now, how do you think you are when God right to? Virgins must be joking. God has said this. The one. You get it? Yeah. So she's not beautiful. She's not beautiful. What do you what do you what do you mean by beautiful? There's nothing like this. So God said live here and you will live where you will live where when he says live here, you will live where when he says do this, you'll do that when he says do this, you do that. Suddenly they'll be supposed to pen you are no more when you appear and say and there's nobody smiling. So another of these disobedient and rebellious people that have come, can you be asked? Angel. Angel, I'm here. Well, we're expecting something different, Anna. You see, sometimes we don't know what is in heaven. You come to heaven with your preconceived ideas about what is expected. One day, a certain brother, he was on earth and there was a great flood, and during that flood a lot of people died, but he was able to swim and survive. When the flood was over, he was very thankful to God for his escape from the flood. It was called a Justin flood or something. So from that time, everywhere he went, if he's called upon to speak, he will speak about the Justin flat. Hey, if it was an outdoor ring and they say you want to call him brother so and so to give an optional speech, he will start. So my name is so and so I want to talk about it. Justin Flat. If it's a party optional speech, he will talk about the Justin flat. Every program, that is the only thing that he talked about. One day it came to pass, like all of us, he died and he went to heaven. When he arrived in heaven, he was packing his things and the Angel came and told him the reception party for those who have come today will be this afternoon. So just prepare whatever you want to say. Your speech I mean because I said new arriving so that he asked the Angel, So what should I say? So whatever you feel you have brought from earth, do you see you may share it and so on. So the Angel, the guy told the Angel that oh, then I know what I'm going to do when you talk about the adjusting flag. Then when the Angel was going, the Angel said just a note, Noah will be there. When we are coming with this story, Noah will be in the congregation. As you are coming with this, your Justine Flood story, just I just want you to be aware that Noah, Noah will be there. He will be in the service in the meeting this afternoon. So you see sometimes you are going to have you with what you think is great, but heaven has seen I've been asked what is great to it. You are cancel Justin Flood. So the Angel, when the Angel goes by the way by the way. Noah. Noah will be there. They survive. Floods. We are talking of flies, say Justin Flood. So you. You. Come with your little, little things. You think that it will be accepted in heaven when you get to where you said there are different standards and different levels, higher levels. Who expected something different? And of course we are expecting something. Different. Amen. All right. Is it evening? Is it that night I have to show you some films? Amen. Knowing your predestination makes you desire not to live for yourself, desire not to live here. That's #5 Know your predestination makes you desire not to live for yourself. Know your predestination to stand before the judgment seat of God makes you desire not to live for yourself. Notice 2nd Corinthians chapter 5. We must all appear best stand before the judgment seat of Christ. That's verse 10, Verse 14. For the love of Christ constraineth us, because we does judge. But if one died for all, then all were dead, and that he died for all that. They which live. Should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them and rose again? Amen. You are now not to live for yourself henceforth, henceforth, henceforth, henceforth henceforth. When you find God, when you find Christ, then the purpose is not to live for yourself again because you have found him. Now that you know that appearing before Jack mercy, it's not about Nadolene, it's about him. It's not for yourself, it's about him you. You must be constrained to live not for himself. That we should not. Where is it that's 14. Where is she? What's she going? 15 that one died for and therefore he died for that day which live might no longer live for themselves. I, myself and me, three of us, my little family, my children, my life, my this, my dad. When some listen, you see you, you. It's not a nice experience to go and see dead bodies. But as a pastor, if there is a dead body, it's not an easy experience for somebody to experience it, to see it. They need somebody who has some strength, you understand, to go with them. It's like there's a bad thing that is happening. Who which strong person is going with me so that if there's even something worse going to come, the person is also there with me. That's a passage. But it's not about what is for you or what is good for you, but it's about what is good for him or her or them. And time and time again, you have to do things that is not for yourself. One day my mother asked me something. You know, she had. This has happened to somebody. She said, what do you know, all these bad things that have happened to people in the world. I said that is the work of a pastor, a pastor, the real life of people. You will be involved with it and you will get to know about it. Are you listening to me? Yeah. And that's why we show you all these films that we are showing you. It's not about for yourself. For myself, then I'm. OK, how many know that I'm OK? Crap, I'm the Kodesh as a church Sunday morning. I just need to preach 1 sermon. I've got a good church. I'm established. I mean one of the biggest in the whole country. I have a car, I have a house. Oh, I can just continue to live for myself and be happy. I've got a persistent pastors and. I'm not. I'm not doing. It for myself, it's not for me. For me, do you get it? What I'm preaching, what I'm sharing with you? I'm not preaching to myself. The notes that I'm preaching to you from, I've had them for more than a year. It's more than a year old. Something I just called my secretary. Give me these things and let me go. It's not something that I just, I just developed. Plus I was coming here. You get it. I'm not doing it for myself. I'm doing, I'm not, I'm not working on my feet here because I, oh, As for me, I like to walk, you know, and I don't want to rest in the world. I come, I'm losing weight. I've come into the world to be tired. No, nobody has come to this world to be tired. But we are no longer living for ourselves, but for Him. So you no longer your money is not just for yourself, it's for it's for the Lord Amen. It's for others it's for others. Once you know you are going to stand before judgment better look at others Amen and I'm finishing my my points. I tell you, no matter how your face is tell your neighbor neighbor neighbor. Is it possible that you are sleeping at a time like this at your age? Number six, how many points are there more? OK, number six, know your predestination makes you desire to know no man after the flesh and it goes on in verse 16 it says wherefore henceforth we know no man after the flesh. This is a very important point. You cannot know somebody after the flesh and do well on the judgment day when you relate with me just by the flesh. It. Will not be good for you on a judgment day. Because in the flesh, who am I? I'm 1/2 caste boy, isn't it? I'm neither a Ghanaian nor a European. Do you understand me? When I go here, they say I'm you go away. Whatever disappointed European or Bruni, Pete this and that, all kinds of things they call me, I will not mind them. Don't worry, it's true. If you relate with me after the first Oh, I know his father. Oh, I know his brother, I know his cousin. Oh, this and that and that. I know whatever, I know this. You cannot do well. And the judgment they will not do well because. That is all. Those things are not what I am, because maybe I'm a man of God for you. Maybe I'm an apostle for you. Maybe I'm a pastor for you. But now you've taken his Oh, I know his father Azozo. You know Azozo, you are thinking about me in the wrong way. You know, I know you from medical school. I know you from this school. I know it's I know. I'm his classmate. I'm his friend. I mean this. I mean that it will not do well for you in heaven. I don't. You don't relate with you. With A7 day. You perish because you operated and related the person after the flesh. After the flesh. I'm nothing. I'm nothing before you. I'm I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm. I'm nothing. I'm less than nothing, I tell you. Look me, I know what it means to be half caste. You go when you go to Europe, when you go to America, you are. You don't belong there in Ghana. Look, I've been to secondary school. I was not accepted. When people are themselves, I'm not accepted. You see, it's called red. Hi Yellow, you've now you've now given me a colour as my name. Colour Yellow Colour. Red, huh? Don't mind that. But I remember what they what they have. They treated me. So when you relate with me like that, you miss all the gold, the treasure, the blessing. Amen. What do you think, huh? Now when I'm preaching, don't relate with me as a man. You see, when you say As for this man, they're always talking about sex. You are making a big mistake. So he's a man. You see, if he's a man, that's why he's saying this and saying that. You're already out of place. You're already in error. As for you, man, this no, you see you. You've gone off course already when you do. That you relate with me as a man. From that moment, you're off. Because I don't also relate with you as oh, which tribe are you from a Kapem, as oh, this. And you are from where? And you are from where. Fancy this, this, whatever. I don't relate with you like that. Now suddenly you are, you are relating with me according to the flesh. You're making a big mistake. So, brothers and sisters, it is a great and important blessing that you'll be careful. I read I don't relate with Archbishop Darker when according to the flesh and Bishop Darker according to the flesh. He has no education. Yes, he would tell you. He says I have no classmates. What he's trying to say he has no classmates. He has not. Been to school before? Yeah, he has not been to school before. That's what he means according to the flesh. I'm far more even according to the flesh. He's not much older than me. Yeah. If I was in secondary school, I would have been in the same school with him. At the same time, it's not like he's some far older person. Keep pushing. So it's not like he's far, far. But we don't operate like what is the flesh like He can't give it, cannot give birth to being the natural. So brothers and sisters, be careful because heaven will require I sent a Father to you. I sent somebody to you. I sent this. What did you do? I sent Jesus to you related with Him. As a Jew, he related with Him as a Carpenter, he related. You will go to hell for that. You will go to hell for relating with him like that. As soon as you relate with a person according to the flesh, you can easily go to hell. Amen, are you there? And finally, knowing your predestination to be appeared for a judgment seat makes you desire not to judge anybody. Amen makes you desire not to judge anybody. 10 to 1st Corinthians chapter 4. First Corinthians chapter 4. Have you found it? First Corinthians chapter 4, verse one. Let's read verse one. What does it say? But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you or of man's judgment. Yeah, I judge not my own self. Amen. That's fine. Therefore judge nothing before the time until the Lord come, who will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts, Amen. Then shall every man have praise of God. So, brothers and sisters, it's a wonderful thing. Verse 3 says, it says small thing to be judged by you, Amen. That I should be judged of you, of man's judgment. Yeah, I judge not my own self. Amen. Because we are going to appear for the judgment seat. Why bother? Something that's going to happen and people have planned it anyway. Why assess me? Why judge me? Why pass judgment on him or on her? Amen. And we must all try, even when things occur to us. I think this is happening because of this. I think, shut up and wait, he says. I don't even judge myself. It's a small thing to be judged by anybody. So don't judge anyone because I tell you, God has prepared a wild judgment for all of us and it's not going to be easy on that day. Amen. Stand to your feet and let's let's let's end this session. Are you all here? Is everybody in? I I see a lot of empty spaces. Are they going to sleep or what? They've left, huh. Yeah. But I, I see quite a lot of empty spaces. Are they around the arresting or something? OK, All right. Lift up your hands and just thank the Lord for His great blessing today. Mother thing. Pray. Pray in the Holy Ghost. None. Thank you Lord for your blessing. In Jesus name, Lord, Amen, How many are getting ready for your predestined judgments? What is the first thing you are going to do to be ready for your judgments? Live a life that is acceptable #2 desire to do good things in the body whilst you're in your body and #3 you're going to do what? Desire to persuade men. Amen. Because of the terror of the Lord and #4 desire to do everything to please God, including what? Are you ready to be mad for God? One day when you are leaving America, people say, are you mad? Are you mad? Then you say it is for God. It is for God. Yeah, I'm mad. It's for God, I'm a fool for Christ #5 Desire not to live for yourself. I'm going to show you 2 last big films and I believe it's going to be a blessing. Desire not to live for yourself. Next one is what? Hey, that one is very wild. Don't know people after the flesh. So now you know somewhere after the flesh. No, your judgment can be you can easily go to hell knowing Jesus after the flesh. One of the most dangerous things you can ever do. Don't don't relate with me after the flesh. Once I'm going in this camp, I'm relating to you as a spiritual app, but never relate with me according to the flesh. Don't relate with me, my height, my color, my personality, my temperament. You are, you are choleric, that's why you are saying this. You are a man, that's why you are saying this. You are a Ghanaian, that's why you are saying this. Your mother is from Switzerland, that's why you are saying all these thing will not let you receive the gold and the treasures that are coming. I'm telling you, I've met all people that look at you say oh this guy who is a white mother is a white woman, that is why he behaves like this. But that's why the church is this. Oh, his father is rich. That's why this. Oh, his mother is this. That's why this. Oh, he's like this, that's why that. Oh, this and that. That's why he's a doctor. That is why this and that. Yeah. All that makes you not relate well with me. Just relate with me as your pastor or your apostle or your teacher or whatever, or your evangelist. Just relate that way. Don't relate to me as a male or as a man. Don't fall in love with me. Don't relate to me as like a male that you can have a limerance with. Don't have limerance with me. Don't say that you are losing your mind. I love it. Don't. I just know how you should relate with me. It's all these are wrong ways. You are relating the wrong way. Just relate with me. Ask what I am to you spiritually. As soon, as, as soon as you relate with me, the judgment will change. Yeah, Amen. And you do well, you will do well. Try to blind yourself from earthly things and just relate with the spiritual, then you will do well. Next one is what? Desire to do what? Why bother to work when somebody has been given that job to do is going to come on full time big time. Amen. Is that the last one? Sit down. Is there anybody behind the door? Huh. Check. Yeah, there's somebody behind the door. OK, Our next film is called. There's so much work to be done. And then I'm going to show you the last one, which is this one. No, that one is the last one. I'm giving you the last one to for the last send off. Amen. OK, lights off. Please don't chat during the things because you disturb others. You see, one day I went to watch a film and let me tell you a story before I went to watch a film in America, the first time I've ever, oh, the first time I've ever watched a film in America, I should say even abroad. The film was called The Passion and there were some people talking. So somebody turned around and said please, you are disturbing us. Do you know what the answer the person gave the person I said do you speak Aramaic? You see in the the film is in Aramaic. They asked him that. Do you speak Aramaic? He he tend to ask him do why do you speak Aramaic? I was sitting there. Do you speak Aramaic? Nonsense. I want to talk and I'm going to talk. Do you speak Aramaic? Because the film is in Aramaic. It's fantastic. Anyway, this one is not in Arabic, so you need to be quiet. All right, let's go.
