In life you experience the cares of the world, and when you experience the cares of the world, you, the cares of the world, quench the calling. So you may be called. A lot of people are called actually. If you want to know when you are called, then think about before the cares of the world come on your life, what are the cares of the world? The responsibilities. And now your only responsibility is to pass exams. That's when you hear the call of God most. That's why I enjoy preaching to those of you in the First Live Church, because I enjoy preaching to people who have the call of God and are listening to the call of God. What's your name again? Nanaquist here. Yeah. Thank you, Nanaquist. You can sit down now. You know something. You know something, when you grow up a little and you have the cares of the world on you, it starts to choke. At first I was the call was alive. Then I start to have responsibilities of marriage, children, finances. The call which was moving on stage. Yeah, the call. Which was moving on stage. Alive starts to be. Go back. Is it the cares of the weather from here onwards as soon as I start to cross this barrier? So I prefer to be in the youth group here when I start to grow a little responsibilities. The evil days. I'm back. Wow. Every time I grow up a little and I become you see, So you people are saying I want to grow up, I want to marry, I want to go out of school. It is rare to find a singer who used to sing in school who is still singing after school. Look carefully all those who are Intellecto Pyro fest, you know, you know that that festival Intellecto Choiro fest, where are they? Where are the UCF presidents, gaffes, presidents, secretaries, prayer secretaries, IHCF presidents? Is that what you call it? IHCF. Where are they today? I'm, I'm, I'm going. My eyes are coming. The cares are wild though, and the deceased owners of riches. When it leaves hold on my on my calling, it is dying. The calling is dying. But I saw that there was no call. The call was alive, full of life. I feel it. I see the harvest, I feel the power, I feel the grace. I know I'm called Let's go. It's very painful. The choking is painful. I'm even tired of being choked. You say you are called back. I'll go back. No calling. Yeah, no more calling. Cares of this one, ladies. When you marrying? The man asks. Are we eating your Kagari again? Are we eating your Kegari again in this house today too? When they start for you, Lizzy. Lizzy. Lizzy, where's my food? That's what you see. You used to be into prayers and the spirit. Lizzy. You have not been able to pray when you woke up. No, in fact, you didn't even wake up. You heard one baby on a breast and a grown up one who has also decided to maintain maintain himself. And then the husband has also added himself three first baby. Oh, in certain places you see people sucking breast milk up to the age of 11. Oh yeah, say 11 old child is coming to drink. Yes, you've seen one before. Oh yeah, he plays what? He will play football with his friends and when during the half time. He will go and. Lift his mother's blouse, drink milk and then continue. To play Cape Coast. And Cape Coast, Yeah, he's having a drink. Wow. So listen, my dear friends, what God is telling us is that if you can make it and you are still anointed after you are married, then somebody said then you are really cold. But no, it's not that you are really cold. But then the chokers were not able to choke the word. Yeah, yeah, that's the main thing, because we all are living in this world, you know, and this world has a lot of issues. You have to buy bulbs. You have to change bulbs in the house for the lights go off and you need to change the bulbs. You need to buy units for the electricity meter. You may not know it's running. So you see me in my house going always turning off lights. I'm the master Turner of of lights manager. I'm the manager of light turning off in my house where once there's nobody in the room, I turn off the lights. Yes, including current anywhere once there's a human. Because you have never bought units before. That is why you leave it on the cares of this world. You need to buy dresses. Brothers, you are married. You have to be a good husband who buys dresses and gives your wife money to buy dress people. Do you understand what I'm saying? Wife money to buy dresses what she likes, not what you like. You can also buy what you like. She has got to let her have nice things. Women are interested in such things, it makes them happy and you must do whatever you can to let them be happy, because it is nicer to be married to a happy woman than a bottle bitter widow. You see how she looks nice in church, smiling happily? Is that not what you want? So how to achieve that in the house? You have to give them things that make them happy, like shopping. Let them go. Just they the shop car. They don't even buy anything, like just to go on a Bonichon. They just like to shop windows. They'll be looking through the windows. Wow. That is, are you learning how to be a good husband, Caesar? The cares of this one are just about to descend on you. Yeah, where's your beloved? And she's a bridesmaid. Wow. Cares of the world. I've taken her away from the camp. Charlie, everybody should check your diary. Whether when you were younger, you sensed the call of God. How many have felt the call of God in your younger era of your life? Raise your hand before the evil did. Hey, a lot of you like that. Raise your hand. Let me see. Wow. Look, God has called calls a lot of people. Wow. He felt the call. You didn't feel the call. OK. You didn't feel the call. Who felt the call? You. Yeah. When did you feel the call? Age 10? How old are you now, 27? Hey. So what problems do you have in this world? What problems do you have? Marriage. You have problems of marriage and you are about to marry. So you are looking for what, two months time microphone that is? Take it to him. Uh huh. Yes, in two months time. So you are looking for one. So I just last week we went to buy the engagement list. They gave me a long list. Long list. And what else? And then also booking, booking a venue for the wedding, the wedding dress and all. You ask them to even reduce the predatory that it's not easy to do business of late because of the dollar and all. So it has become a very serious issue. Has it brought some tension between you and your beloved? Yes, even just last week she went to see her back which which is on the engagement list and I asked her that she should find a place where she can get it cheaper and she said no, no, no, no, no. Uh huh. Yeah. So 17 years ago, God called you. You said you are 27. What have you been doing with this calling? Well back back on campus UCC. I finished UCC as an elder in UCC trying to pursue the call but then I mean certain issues and. What issues? I realized that I realized that my spirituality came down. It reduced when I got a beloved because because there will be times when you have to you, you'll be praying and you see her call. If you don't pick it, maybe after about an hour she can call like 5 times and then you explain to her that you were you were you were praying. That's why you couldn't pick a call. She's not happy sometimes, once said. That it is choking the guy's prayer life. Oh, the prayer life is being choked. Wow, so it affects your prayer life? Yes. And then also when, when there's disagreement and so that I have to go and pray and then I realize that no, I have AI have a quarrel with my beloved. So I have to find a way to try to settle the quarrel so that they will be peaceful. So that I I feel that if I go to pray, God will answer my prayers. Because the Bible, the Bible says that it should be at peace. Let your prayers be hindered. So she she's aware of this. So sometimes when the quarrels come, she will even remind me that I need to come for us to settle this before. So Bishop, right now I sent a text that would she be able to obey me when she becomes my my wife or when I become her husband because I've been I've been trying to pull her to the camp. Pastor Luther, obey me with witness. I've been trying to pull her to the camp and she's given excuses. But she's not the only nurse. I mean, there are other nurses around who have been able to make way and I'm also a doctor in Kulebu. I've also been able to make a way to come back. She's not understanding some of these issues and it has become. Hold your neighbor and start to choke the call the call. OK, not too hard. Not too hard That that is what happens to your calling. This is what happens to your calling. That squeezing of it to quench the air. There should be no air in your calling, no oxygen in your calling, no life left in your calling. Your calling should lie down flat, Yes. Wow. I wonder if she will obey you on a scale of on a scale of zero to 10 whether she will obey you. That means one, she will obey you 110%, two, she obey you 20%, three, she obey 30%, four, she obey you 40%. Five should obey you 50%, six to obey you 70 percent, 60%, seven should obey you 70%, eight should obey you 80%, nine should obey you 90%, and 10 to obey you 100%. On a scale of predictability, I will not bother to predict that. I'm going to ask the Parliament to give us how many in the Parliament think that how many will vote that her obedience will be 100%? How many things that her obedience will be 90%? How many things her obedience will be 80%? How many things that her obedience will be 70%? How many things? Her obedience will be 60%. 1234 How many things Her obedience will be 50%. No 12345 System how many things her obedience will be 40%? How many things? Her obedience will be 30%. Anything obedience will be 20%. How many things obedience will be 10%? How many things obedience will be 0%? OK, her obedience will be about 50%. According to what they are saying, the votes they are voting for you 50% obedience. 5050 some she will obey. Wow. Those of you who are ladies when you marry, how what's your percentage of obedience? Stand up you stand up. What's going to be your percentage of obedience? 100% Pardon. 100. Percent. It's a microphone on 100%, 100%. Don't despise proper signs. OK? I said 100 percent, 100%. Anyone who marries her will be a lucky brother. Don't you get 100% obedience? The neighbor should set out the matter for us. A neighbor should set out the matter. As soon as you add onto yourself a woman, a wife, you have added onto yourself a care and what you have brought upon yourself is called a choker and what it chokes is the call. When my wife travels, well, now I have whatever, but in order to say if my wife travels, I feel more spiritual. Yeah, but more spiritual when she's around, I feel more carnal. Yeah, all, all married men will tell you, those who are spiritual, When she travels or she's not around, the spirituality rises. That's why when we send the missionaries, we let them go before their wives come in. They stay there and be spiritual, praying, interceding. Julius is very spiritual, isn't he? Yes, he has neither, beloved, but I would say there is one alone. He has neither child nor brother. Wow, Dangers of wealthiness #2 Wealthiness diverts your attention from heavenly things. First Corinthians Chapter 7, verse 32. I want you to be free from concern. One who is unmarried is concerned about things of the Lord. First Corinthians Chapter 7 Wilderness diverts your attention from heavenly issues, but I would have you without carefulness, He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord. First Corinthians 732, First Corinthians 733 are that Scripture that he that is married careth for the things of the world, how he may please his wife. When you are unmarried, you care for the things of the Lord. You are totally spiritual that when you are married you have to talk to your wife. You have to talk to her because that is very important to in relationships. And then you have to have sex, you have to eat, you have to relate, isn't it? You have to provide money. Instead of giving all your money to the church. You have to give to look after your wife. It's not a small thing to be in the world. And as soon as you marry, now most ministers, pastors, they have problems, but the biggest problems they have are maritime problems. But you wouldn't know because all pastors take nice pictures with their wives. They pose. So you don't know. You never know till you hear that they are getting divorced and say oh, how one day I was, I was in the church and the pastor came and said, oh, I miss my wife so much. When I travel, I take her picture and I take the picture and I kiss the picture. I said, wow, what a romantic husband. Till then he also came to announce that he was divorcing. I said wow, oh, now you're kissing the picture. I mean, even those of us with beloved, we don't take pictures to kiss. I miss my beloved. What a beloved. Wouldn't you like it if your beloved had your picture and was always kissing your picture? He misses me. He's kissing my picture. That all the ladies in this camp, you are being trained, given the fact that you are here. You are being trained because you although you say camp he's talking about this and that it's actually teaching you a lot of things that your mother was trying to teach you by she couldn't get you to catch it on about Inchon. How many sisters realized that you're some witness it has been discovered. Raise your hand, especially if I'm looking your direction, because I may call you if you don't give the right answer. Yeah. There's some witness, see, because you look so nice. It's the word of God who can Pierce through, dividing us under our soul. It goes very deep beyond all our facades and our pretentious appearances, which are unreal. The word of God pierces, but who says the word of God is living, powerful, piercing down to you. That's also now you sit in church and you say the man is describing me, talking about me. What does he know? You see the people acting here and you realize that this is me, I'm the one. It's happening. Why? Because the word of God is piercing. That's why. The Bible says the word of God is what? Quick and powerful, sharper than any 2 edged sword, piercing to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit. Even soul and spirit Clariters be able to get you how much more into your house. Wow, is it amazing? Is it fantastic? Amen. Wow. Tell your, tell your neighbor. Look me, tell your neighbor me. I'll marry you, but watch me. I am developing armor to resist the chokes. Yeah, I I've been trained to handle cares. I'm expecting them when they come. Watch me. Yeah. I'm wild and I will be Wilder. You see me with my big stomach in the in the camp meeting. Why? I know she was sitting here. Come here, my dear. Oh, I remember when her stomach was nice or flat. She's got a nice stomach now, but she's in the camp. Not saying that. Stop it. She's here, she's sitting at the camp just like you. And she'll be here till the last day. The last day of the pregnancy. You see her moving around, going here, going here, going here when the baby come. But you don't know. You see that she's come to chat with the baby. So why the baby? Don't worry about the baby. We have sorted out the baby. We are sorting things out. Yeah. You see her moving. So tell your neighbor. neighbor. I'm getting ready for those cares. I've heard a lot about them, but I have something to sort them out. It's called antichoke. Antichoke immunization. Yeah. It's a powerful look. Me have met chokers. I'm equally surrounded by chokers. Imagine I have four children. Yeah, I wanted 2. I wanted 2. And due to certain tricks, now I have 4:00, one wife and four children. That is five chokers. Imagine that I have to balance them. So I've developed karate cat paws, eagle claws, snake face Balance myself. Yeah, You have to be energetic and determined. Yeah. When I had my first baby, somebody invited me to church seven days after. I say a newborn baby doesn't go out. I say in my case, a newborn baby goes out. We are going. Let us go to church. Hello. Yeah, when Yongicho was coming to Ghana, my my wife was pregnant like this 2000 and one 2001 like this. Then I saw that the dates of Adeno arrival was coinciding with the program was coming to took when I'm there. Well, I am coming to host one of the greatest men of God in my church to come and dedicate my church. You have come to hold my neck. I should go back. I look at it and I use my knowledge of obstetrics and gynecology. I say you shall be born earlier than the day that you were expecting to come. Yeah. 11 quench my calling, small chair that I built that somebody's coming to dedicate it now and say I shouldn't be there because if I go and my wife is giving birth and then I'm not there, then they'll say you don't love me, you don't love me, you don't care. The church. Everything is the church. I was there for the delivery of all my children. Oh, yeah. Hands on with everything. Gloves, everything pulling. Yeah. What? What do you mean? I was there. Yeah. Threw out. Yeah. 1234. Yeah. I couldn't quench me. Yeah, with the babies crying. Couldn't quench me, cover my head shouting the pillow. I had no money to eat. Yeah, no money. You see, they were selling. What do you call it? Is it baby milk? I don't know. I don't know what? I don't know something. Is it lactogene? No, no, the not the milk after I think a little further. I don't know what it is. When it got I didn't have money, yeah, to go and buy. I didn't have money to buy from the the shop for selling. So I told him, I said, look, when I was in American school, we learnt how to get a nutritious meal for the baby with fish powder and oil and cocoa and then we make it. I said we, we will never buy it. We will never buy that. We will never buy it. We, they will grow how they have grown. Yeah. So we shall mix it. I I said I learned it in school. You did not learn it in school too, or you haven't done Pediatrics. What are those who did Pediatrics? You did not learn it? Yeah. Mix it. Yes. Different proportion. Fish powder and then oil and cocoa. You can even add grammars. I don't think we were adding grammars. We just mix it, eat it. It's good. It's good for you. I said I'll not buy Pampas. What? What would you afford Pampas? Where From the where? Pampas. From where? Pampas. Get to the door and start washing the tanks. They wash it. They wanted to choke me when it was time for school. Sir, there's this school, International School, this school and this school, Sir, I don't, cannot take my child to ND school. I don't know. So I saw a school that was beginning, said opening a new school and I took my son there as a founder. He became a founder of the school. So when the school, you know, recently, I think they were ten years or 20 years or they, they wanted him to come because he's the founder. You, you can, you can sit down and let the, the chokers, they'll finish you off Money. There's money for this money for the money for that. You need this. You need to do this. Adjust yourself, Dada, and know that I must do what I'm supposed to do. And God in the end will help you. Yeah, yeah, if, if, if you, if Nana. Yeah. Come. You, you feel God has called you when I'm preaching. How do you feel? Come. How do you feel when I'm preaching? Stand here. Stand here so that they can see you. Talk to the children. I think it's what I'm saying true. Yes, Bishop, it's true from the beginning. I think the first time I listened to you, you came to London in 2004. So at that time I had just one child. And after you preached, we had a camp later on. And you, you wanted people to go to South America also. And I felt God had really called me, and I also wanted to join. And then along the way another child came. So he made things a little bit more complex. But in the midst of it, I still felt God had called me. You know, sometimes when you are preaching, I feel that this is what I have to do. I remember one of the days when I was watching the Crusade, I felt this. This is exactly what I want to do. So I was still trying to balance school, marriage, children, everything. Then PhD and PhD. So one day I took a decision. Environmental Science. Environmental sanitation, which means smaller. Uh huh. So he said one day. So I think one day I decided about six years ago, I just decided that listen, I have to take a decision and obey. So I packed my things and I said I'm going to Ghana because we came to a company, he said. Anybody who wants to go to the missions you report, when you report in Ghana, you, you, you will be employed. So I packed my things. I sent my books and things, but then I couldn't move my leg because of complications at home. So I brought my things back and then I was there. You come for camp. I still feel the call. Then I packed again, sent some things to Ghana. I said I'm coming and then we had another child. So more complications and then other issues also came up. So I think last year I decided that no, I'm going to Ghana. So last year I sent some things. For the third time. Yeah, I came. I came to Ghana last year and I even told my parents I'm not going back, but I went back. But he really loves God. He's always drawn. He doesn't stay here when he saw their campus. I want to come to the camp. He likes it when he hears it. No, this is what this is. This is my life. I want to do this. He's trying. He took a Then he tries again, trying again. It's not a small thing, though. That's why he's here. It's not, it's not in, it's not in the he has three how many children? 33. Plus a wife is Portuguese. Portuguese, I have 5. I have a mortgage so that that is. I really love this brother. I I just feel a great love for him. He loves the Lord. He wants to with his life. When I see him, I just remember his visions. Yeah, he had vision that he was, he went to heaven and they were attacking him that what did he do when he was rather following PhD? And then Bishop, yes, yesterday when I went back and I was lying down, one of the things that came back to me was, you know, when I had this vision, all these complex things had not happened to me. So I was looking back and I was saying, I'm sure the things that have happened to me were what I was trying to explain to the people in heaven. And they still won't accept the explanation because in their vision, I felt I had valid reasons why I couldn't do what they were expecting me to do. So I was trying to explain it to them, but they were also very aggressive and they were not listening to me. It's like they still wanted me to do what they expected me to do. So as I was lying down I said I'm sure these problems are the reason because it's like any time I make a move so more complex things happens and then it's like I have to return back and then try and sort things out. Hey, so when you say that was a say not that what is the cause that the former days were better than these? You shouldn't say that today is a very good day. You see, you do have children. This that, that you have all these things you don't have. This is a very good time. The only thing you may miss to be here is maybe some some notes, 2 pages of notes which you write down. Finish. Yeah. Or maybe nothing at all. Or just you feel tired. That's all. Or you don't bat for one day and you say that it's not a good day when your life is surrounded by you will see all of you. You remember this camp in the future, you'll remember. I say, hey, there was a guy Bishop kept calling the guy to come. Now when I look up, I realize that I'm just like that guy. If Bishop is having a camp, he can call me. I will come and say the same stories. But God is, God is, God is through his experience, you can receive wisdom and you can say to yourself, you know, let me prepare for the chokers and let me sometimes if you want to do the work of God, you have to limit the number of children you have. Oh, yeah. So the more children you have, the more domestic you must be. Yeah. Because the children, you've brought them into the world, you have to care for them. You can't just give birth and run off. That is not the the will of God Can't just give birth and run off to do 2 other things. Who will the children talk to? Who's going to bring them up? Who is going to talk to them? Who's going to tell them what to do? You can't have children and just walk away. So God has called me so I'm going to the mission for so see you Kinis. Grandma will look after you. Grandma. Grandma is tired of looking after you before. She's going to look after these ones. Glad for our brother. Tell somebody I'm preparing for those chokers. I know, I know they are on their way, but I'm going to survive in Jesus name now. That is why I appreciate, you know, when I see medical students, other students, first year, final year, doctors, lawyers, workers. You see, you demonstrate resistance to the chokers by being here because in my time, a medical student was not even allowed to be the executive of the UCF or IHCF. How do you call it now? UCFUCF? Yeah. You're not even allowed because you were, you were considered to be too busy. Uh huh. You say you are too busy, but you are here. You are here, Lady Pastor BDR and Natha and others, they were all medical students, doctors medical who were always around they that I know them from student days working in the House of the Lord. So don't let worldliness divert your attention from heavenly things #3 so #1 is, well, worldliness, that's what. And makes you an fruitful, isn't it? Destroys your calling, makes you an number 2 is world wilderness. That's what from heavenly faith #3 wilderness cancels the direction of the Holy Spirit. Wildliness cancels the direction of the Holy Spirit. Because wildliness is a cause itself. It's a cause, not cares cause COURSE worldliness cancels the direction of the Holy Spirit. Once you start walking in worldliness, you are you sort of have a fixed pathway on which you sort of walk one of an inch. Are you there? You are going home. When you start being worldly, your your route is sort of mapped out for you. Yeah, you have a mapped out route, Ephesians 2, verse 2, wherein in time past you worked according to the course of this world. The world has a course mapped out. So since you are on the course of this world, how can the Holy Spirit give you a course? How can the Holy Spirit give you a course when you have a course already? Huh. Have you thought about that? The course has been mapped out. Come here. When you come up here, you go here. This is the course of the world. So what the Holy Spirit is saying here, can you go here? But the course, the course has been mapped. And you are you are wealthy and you are walking on the ways of the world. So you just keep going in this direction. So you see a royal lady. Wow. And you keep going on your course and the course is there and the Holy Spirit is saying, come, Curtis, be the Holy Spirit and be waving at me to come now just wave at me to come. Just call me. No, but I'm on my course. I'm on my course, Holy Spirit, I'm on a course. I'm looking for more royal ladies. Wow, can I find some royal, beautiful royal ladies for a royal Prince like me? Holy Spirit, come on to me. Holy Spirit, fill me. Holy Spirit fill my cup meanwhile I'm on the cross of this world.

Holy Spirit is telling me to come this way, but I'm in the world fully. I'm following money, promotion, girls, boys. This is the last girl in this area. If she doesn't say yes, I'll be left with boys. This is the last chick in this area. Breathe on me. Breathe. On Holy Ghost. Wow. Oh see, my whole life is bizarre. Look at where I am. Would you have expected me to be here this time? I should have been in that pulpit with the Holy Spirit standing by me. The anointing would have been all over me, that the Presence would have been just by me and so far from the Presence. And I keep singing these songs. What other songs do you, what other songs do we sing about the Spirit? Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit, I'm surrounded by unbelievers, worldly, worldly people. That's where the Holy Spirit is of mercy. I'm repenting, going to follow the Holy Spirit. Going back to the Holy Spirit away from the course. You see there's some pre mapped out courses. The average Nigerian brother who wants to get money has got a roads. Where will he pass to get money? Where will he pass? You do politics, you sell oil, isn't it? Anointing I miss your presence. I just want to be. Where you are. I've been deep down in the world so far. That's my calling. That's my pulpit. There's nobody standing there but a little girl, Vivian. She's now in my place. She's preaching because boys wouldn't preach. Now girls are preaching little girl like that Holy Spirit. Want to be where you? Are you still like me? I've been so far in the world. You still accept me. But I know you're with good people. You still like me? I want to be in your presence. I felt so funny and different far away over there, down there especially. That was my W corner. I've been in different corners. I was in that corner. I was in that corner and I was in that corner. But that was the West corner because of the television over there. I just want to be. Holy Spirit, I just want to be take me back to my place, to my ministry. You little girl, will you get out of my position? Please? Will you get out of my place? I'm coming back to my preaching position. I'm going to preach again. I'm going to preach again, Holy Spirit, stay with me. I don't even have to say stay with me because he's with me. I'm now follower listening to him. Lord annoyed us with fresh oil. The anointing upon us renew. OK Holy Spirit, thank you for your kindness. Give the Lord a mighty clap offerings. How many are going to follow the Lord #4 Worldliness makes you forsake your ministry. Worldliness makes you forsake your ministry. For Demas hath forsaken me. He was my assistant, my personal assistant. Demas, worldliness makes you forsake the ministry. Second Timothy 4 and verse #10 Worldliness makes you forsake your ministry. Second Timothy chapter #4 verse #10 Demons had forsaken me, forsaken me, forsaken me. When you forsake a man of God, you forsake the ministry because the ministry is the person. Yes. So when you forsake the person, you forsake the ministry. Are you listening? Yeah, because the ministry God anoints a person to minister. So the whole ministry is the person giving out a fountain, a river. It's coming out of the person. So that's what ministry is. It's a river out of your belly, it's flowing. So when you forsake the person, he forsaken the the river, the source of the river, and the river is flowing out and through that person. So when Dimas forsook Paul, he was forsaking the ministry of Paul and all these books that Paul wrote, He would have had fruits in all these things, but he loved this present world and he forsook. We must rather forsake the world, forsake the world, forsake the world. Once Upon a time, there was a man who had two sons. The younger one left his home into the world. There he wasted his life doing many wicked things, but his father still waited mission and he came to witnesses and came running to his father. Forgive me, forgive me. There is a better place for you and for me, the entire middle ways. There's a home in heaven or a burning, a fire. Make a better choice for Jesus today. There's a place be in the sky, and it's heaven above. Jesus died on the cross to save a Sinner. Just believe and receive. You would have a better life and your name will be in the book of life. As you wait for me and the entire little ways there are people dying. Never heard about salvation and the people of Jesus Christ. Yeah, I watched me build this house upon the rise. By this house there are many mansions there. In that place, the beep bees, forever more. With the Saints, with our friends, with the Lord, forever more. In that place the beep bees forever more. No other name whereby we can't see. It's Jesus. It is Jesus to see the world. Where is the battle place for you and for me and the entire great there are? Never heard about South nation and the same you had changed the blood and the world. There was a better thing for you and for me. And the answer you better praise. Where are you? I hate they shine and escape the jeans of the light. Take the world. There is the real play for you and for me. And we have come and live there. I'll be all night and I'll stop and shop and stay the tease of life. They're all people die in never heard about your vision and to say God, Jesus my life the tease of my life. Wow. Worldliness makes you an enemy of God. Worldliness makes you an enemy of God. Know ye not that friendship of the world is enmity with God? From today, your friendship with the world is terminated. What is the world? Wild people? Yeah. They're not going to be friends, Sharon. Is it? Sharon? They're not going to be friends anymore with the world. Are they clear? Ask somebody. Is it clear? Number six, wealthiness makes you put the Kingdom of God as #2 Wealthiness is a very dangerous thing. I'm talking about the dangers of wealthiness. It's a very dangerous thing to be a wealthy Christian, all right, Very, very dangerous to be a worldly Christian. What is the first danger #1 Destruction of your calling and makes you unfruitful #2 Diverts your attention from heavenly things #3 It does what? Cancel the direction of the Holy Spirit because it is a cause on its own #4 Makes you forsake your ministry instead of forsaking the world. Amen #5 Worldliness makes you an enemy of God. How many want to be the enemy of God? Enemy of God, enemy of? Have you watched this from enemy of the state? It's unfortunate. A guy is the enemy of the state and he really struggles. So if you are an enemy of God, you are really going to struggle. When you are going somewhere, God will oppose you. When you are going somewhere, God will send an Angel, stop him, fight him, fight her. When a nice beloved is coming to propose to you, an Angel will whisper into her. Dangerous, dangerous danger girl, and the guy will turn away like this because you are an enemy of God. One day a man of God was preaching and there was somebody in the congregation and he was shocked but he didn't believe in the man of God. His eyes opened and he saw an Angel on the stage. As the guy was preaching. The man of God was preaching. The Angel would whisper into his ear. Then when an Angel whispers into his ear, the man of God would would then stop and then say something. But nobody it looked like normal. So nobody knew that the Angel kept on saying things to him, then he would speak. So angels always involve in our lives. Yeah. Spirits are involved in our lives. A lot of things that happen are not natural. Arne Robes went to Job's family. It was the devil who said, OK, I'll organize it tomorrow. The next day, Arne Robes came. His house got bent down. It was the devil who did it in that story. So Arne Robes fire it was the devil then lost his property. He lost his business. His business went down. It was the devil who said tomorrow I'll sort out job. And the law said don't you can't touch it, but he cannot be sick. So the sickness was prevented. The devil was not allowed to make him sick then. So the circumstances of armed robbers, the circumstances of thieves, the circumstance of losing his his things, the circumstance of fire, all, all these were caused by the presence of devils which had sought permission to do that. And then eventually the sickness were boils. So the devil said I, if you, if you touch him, if you touch him, he would change. Allow me to touch. I said, OK, you can give him a sickness that will not make him die. You can't give him a sickness that would make him die. So he said, OK, Then he gave him a sickness which was boils, multiple boils. I'm sure he had some kind of, I don't know, bacteremia with multiple swellings, boils all over the place and fever, septicemia maybe became very immunosuppression. He could have been diabetic. He could have been tuberculosis, HIV, something. So he'll have all these like ornalaca acid fast bacilli, but it is actually mean. Thiogante Edemon. You get what I'm saying? It's actually an evil spirit as a natural thing with tubercular bacteria or HIV virus or boils which need antibiotics. But it was the devil. Yeah. So the Book of Job is one of the most revelatory expositions about the works and activities of devils. Yes. It really shows what happens when a devil attacks. Armed robbery is 1. Clear, clear. Killing, murder, stealing of things, loss of property, loss. He lost his transport, his transport, his car. All the camels were killed in one day. They took all the camels away on a different day. All his transport, his cars and buses, bus splits, everything was gone. So when God is your enemy, he'll be given permission. Yeah. You can't take them on. He'll be going to see that something is moving on you and God is your enemy. You see something is happening here. Something is happening there. Wow. Are you listening to me? How many want God to be your enemy? Tell somebody I'm a friend of God. Wow. #6 Wilderness makes you put the Kingdom of God as #2 Luke 1229. Seek not what you shall eat, or what you shall drink, neither be you of doubtful mind. All these things do the Gentiles, the nations of the world, seek after. Your Father knoweth that you have need of these things, but rather seek you the Kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added unto you. All these things do the nations of the world seek after. Hallelujah, the nations of the world seek after. Hallelujah, Amen. Wow, the nations of the world seek after The nations of the world seek after. Wow #7 Worldliness makes you not love God. Wilderness makes you not love God. When you are wildly you don't like God, you don't like God, you don't pray, you don't go for camps, you don't go for conventions, you don't go for programs like God is like #14 in your agenda. God is not a main person to you love not the world neither the things that are in the world. First John 215 wilderness makes you not love God. Amen #8 Worldliness makes you never prove the will of God is good. It never Worldliness makes you never prove that the will of God is a good thing. Is the will of God good? What does the Bible say in Romans 12 verse 2? Be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renew of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, acceptable and perfect will of God? So when you, when you are not conformed to this world and you are transformed by the renewing of your mind, you are able to prove that's what is that good, acceptable and perfect will of God. Amen. Now when you have become worldly, you prove you are not able to prove that serving God is good. I'll challenge you, serve God from today. Save Him all your life from the time that you are young to the time that you are old and prove you see what I'm preaching to you. I'm preaching to you from my own experience that it is good to serve the Lord. It is better to choose God than to choose to be wealthy. And I've proved it. I've proved it. I'm still preaching. I'm still singing. I'm still listening to nice music. I still have a singer. I've still got nice music. I'm still happy. Yeah, I'm still happy. I'm not bitter for having chosen the Lord. Amen. 25 years I've been a pastor. 25 years I've been serving the Lord. I'm not bitter. I've proved it. Can you prove it too? If you if you stay for one year, you'll never prove it. Years will go by and you'll prove that is the will of God. It is good that you may prove what is that good, perfect and acceptable will of God. Be not conformed to this world, but be it transformed by the renewing of your mind. So that you can prove, so that you can I can't hear you, I can't hear you. So that you can prove, yes, that it is a good thing, yeah, You must allow yourself to prove the will of God, that it is a good thing to serve the Lord. It is a great thing to serve the Lord. It is a great thing to serve the Lord. It is a great thing to serve the Lord. You see, we seem to be going back to basics. This is what they accused me of. Basics. I have another world in view in view. I have another world in view I. I see no reason why this should not be our praise songs in View I. Have another world in view. A great thing to serve the Lord. It is a great thing to serve. The Lord, listen, listen, I am not allowing you to stand up because some of you are standing up to sing in a mocking way as an old song. It's like, oh, Paulo Go style. Is it not true? Yeah. And your tomfoolery is going to cancel the message that is so powerful and lost in our worldly church that you may prove what is that good? That you are proving that it is actually a good thing, that it is a great thing to serve the Lord. These are the songs we were singing. It is that great thing to serve the Lord. It is that great thing to. Serve the Lord. It is that great thing to serve the Lord. Serving in the light of God, O walk, walk, walk, walk. Walking in the light, O walk. It is a great thing, Yeah, it is a great thing to serve the Lord. This is not a good song. How come it is not sound in the chest? But when we see that this is the old school, old school, the math like old school, when you categorize the beauty of the word of God into an old school, old category, which is to say old fashioned and not relevant so much today. Nonsense for your neighbor Nonsense. It is a great. It is a great thing to serve the Lord. It is a great thing to serve the Lord. OK, not tomfoolery, but You Can Dance if you feel like dancing. It is a great thing to serve the Lord. It is a great to serve the Lord. It is a great to serve the Lord, walking in the light of God, Walk, walk, walk, walk, walking in the light, walk, walk, walk, walk, walking in the light, walk, walk, walk, walking in the light, walking in the light. It's just that great thing to tell the Lord it is that great to tell the Lord it is that great. What a great day. Clap, clap, clap in the light. Oh, clap, clap, clap in the light. Oh, clap, clap, clap in the light. Oh, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump. It in the light. Oh, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump. Higher and higher. Jump, jump, jump, jump. The. When we walk into that life. It is that. Great thing, it is that great to sell the Lord. It is that great thing to sell the Lord. It is that great to sell the Lord. In that, because I have another world of view, I have another world. I have another world. You, You, I have another world. My savior is gone. To prepare me, please, I have another world in you, Oh, my savior is gone. To prepare me, please, I have another world in you. Oh, my Savior is gone.

Clap, clap, clap. None. Come on, come on. To say the Lord. Hey, to say the Lord, it is that great thing. Please never, Lord. There is nothing else we just have in the Lord to say. The Lord is that that people out there don't think it's that great thing. They don't think it's a great day. Are you enjoying these basics? Yeah. You prove that the will of God is actually a good thing, and that is actually a great thing to serve the law. And actually there is a song like that. That we used to sing. But nowadays it is as though it is old school non food. Wow, anybody who tells you basics? Tell the person, my friend. Nonsense, nonsense. And if the person tells you that is basic, then I love basics. If that is what you call basics, then I love basics. It is a great thing this. Must be my my. Favorite song in the whole world as a Christian this that it is a great because my main message is about working for the Lord and serving the Lord and this song is saying that it is a great thing to serve the Lord where. Where has this song been? I. Mean the message that the Holy Spirit keeps on. Giving to people through me is that it is good to serve the Lord. And how come I have not been singing this song every day? It's because some people ridicule. Put pressure on us to. Change. And come up with a new. Song Oh God break you through haha through Jesus breakthrough. Wow, that one is not old. School. It is a great thing. That you may prove it you. Prove that it's a great thing. It is a great thing for me to serve the Lord. I thank God, I thank God that he saved me. I thank God that. He gave me. Something to do in his house and give me something to him, make me active, have something to do. It's a great thing to have another world in view to. Even know that there are, there was. So far we have had two worlds. Who is the founder? 2 founders, founder of the old world was who and founder of the current world and the next World in view. Who is the founder of that world? Jesus I have another world in view. Wow, sit down, Lou #9. Worldliness leads to misplaced affections. Misplaced affections. Misplaced wow. Set your affection on things above and not on the things on the earth. The earth is the place where the world is, one of the definitions of the world. Now the Bible says set your affection on things above, which is the same as the point, living here and seeking there. Living here, seeking there, Yeah, set your affections. In Europe, people have affections for dogs, cats. They don't marry, but they have a dog now. If you are a. Male and you are attracted to other males sexually. Don't laugh because when you laugh. It makes those who have. That problem not share it, you get it. They behave like snakes and they are always around doing it and spreading it underground. But they it exists now. If you desire men as a man, what is happening is that. Your. Or if you are a girl and you desire girls, your affections, like affections, like loves and desires, are misdirected. So the Bible says. Set your affection. It's like tuning a radio to set your. Radio station to 90. 4.3 set it to 94.3 always your. Radio must be in Accra. 94.3 Others are optional. They come up later. Set it there, but you could set it to 99.7 You could set it to OK FM. Are you listening? But set it to 94 point. 3 Sweet Melodies Now if you desire a boy, your affections have been set in the wrong place, so you have to work on reprogramming. Sometimes in a car, you have to actually stop the car and reset. It's not as simple as that. Sometimes a switch. You have to do something. And scroll it and to get report and you set it and you save it. It's not just something so quick because if you've been made to like voice, which can happen when you learn about those things because you see the anus has feelings, because through the anus you you get access to the main tell you organs, the prostate gland. Listen. No. Oh, now let us a joke. There's no joke here. When? I'm joking, I'll tell you. I think I should crack some jokes so that people know that I have jokes and then I don't have a place. That's not a joke. I'm serious. It is important that you reset your interests and affections and drive them towards the other sex. Very, very important. OK. Are you listening to me? Because that is very destructive. Now when you are on Earth, you can set your affections on the earth. This car this has for. Me, I'm looking for a chariot in heaven. When I get to heaven, I hope they have Chariots and I don't know what they have, but when I get to heaven and a lot of things I'm going to ask for that I didn't ask for on earth. You saw yesterday I was shaking the people and I was uh huh. That's. How it's going to be? But the people in heaven will be more spontaneous. Some of the guys on the. Road there with the widows. Spontaneous and giving me fans. But some of you, you, you've meant your whole. Life I'll by all means drive. A Mercedes-Benz, even if it's an old one, I will drive one by all means. Khadi Adani, Germany. Set your affections re reprogram reap. Right now I'm looking for crowns and I don't know if you can have. More than one mansion. In heaven, but I want to have an extra mansion for guests because I have a lot of friends and I mean. When I get to heaven, I'm really. Good to entertain people in my house. Oh, yeah, I hope my mansion, They put a big garden in my mansion. I did a very large entertaining place. Yeah, because I hope to have a lot of it. Because on earth I've not been entertaining people in my house. Yeah, it's something that I don't. I don't do that in heaven. I'll be alive. My house would be like a train station. I mean, people in and out, you know, my servants will come upstairs to my room to tell me that, oh, more visitors have come. Also, serve the drinks. Serve. Give them. What would you have? Open the fridges and just serve them. Wow. Yeah. I have so many places to meet all the people and they can all spend the night, boys and girls. You are not married. Nobody can tell you. Oh, I don't want this person, this one and this. One. And this one, you didn't come. No, there's nothing like that. Freedom and Justice. Wow, it's going to. Be a long part. By the way, there's no night. Yeah, there'll be no more night. There's a long party. I wonder when I'll get time to rest in heaven. Yeah, then I'm planning on. Different crowns depending on the occasion. Where is a crown of righteousness, crown of life, crown of incorruptible? Crown. They are all incorruptible. But anyway, but of different ones with diamonds. Prince Dark It's it's it's curious. That's a weird royal. Why the sister? Wait till I get to heaven then and you see that I'm really royalty. I'll be walking down the street. With the umbrella guys over my head. And I'll be waving. I see. You and I'll say, Charlie, do you remember when we were in First Lab Church? I'll. Tell you that I've been doing. Camp so and I'll say, Charlie, how should we do some more camp? Yeah. Charlie, we want some camps. And I'll tell you wait, I'm just saying, our Angel Rafael, listen, can you ask the Lord if they have any halls for camps? We want to have our old guys from the First Lab church around. A lot of them are. We want to have some camps, yeah. I'm setting my affections. On things above, yeah. And then? My house is going. To be by vast lake, yeah, that coming. Some of you guys have said, look, and I don't know where your house is, but my house is a lake. And I say, come, let me take you down to the lakeside. I walk down with you when we get there. And then you see my yacht. You know what? It's a yacht in heaven. Oh, yeah, beautiful. I come in and I'll say, well, Angel Uriel, Uriel, he'll send a text to Raphael and ask him whether he's asked about the camp. And because I'll be royalty, so I have to talk like a Prince, you know what I'm saying? I have to have to know how to be important over here. We don't have to be important, but over there, Sally, and then I'll say, you know. We are going on for a lake. Party. Huh. Not beach party Lake, but. Heavenly. Lake, not lake. Of fire. Oh, so either where will you be staying in heaven? Will your house be near mine? Nearby. Somewhere in the area. So I'll call, I'll tell the, I'll tell the. Angels. I'll listen. I know you guys sing. A lot of good worship songs, but back down on earth we had some good singers too, so I want to call one. Or two of them. I'll say that I. Have two I have. One, she's called BDR, she's in America. And then I've got Ida. I want the two of them to come. But I have other singers too. But I know you angels, you are mostly into worship songs, but we have other songs that we sing. Wow. We get onto the boats and we go. We are crossing to the other side. On the other side, I have some other Princess who are also friends of mine. Yeah, we meet them. They are also having a party. It's going to be a long party. They're having a party on the other side of the lake, having fun and we'll be exploring. Heaven is a place where there's going to be a lot of exploration without dangers. And we get into the forests of heaven. We'll be climbing the mountains of heaven. Even Ghana girls will enjoy the mountains. Oh yeah, because all Ghana girls, their bodies will be converted into heavenly bodies, incorruptible bodies. When I say I'm. Going climbing mountain Mountain climbs. So many Ghana girls will say they are following, but you see, I will have some other fruits from around the world, some Russians, people from Fiji, people from some of the islands. So some of them will want to come around. Yeah. And I say, you know, I haven't seen these guys. Which are you guys? Oh, yeah, Yeah. There's some other things that we were going to do. We heard that there's some wild river that we go on caves like this, and I hear that's very exciting. So most of the first lap guards have been there already. You guys haven't been. It's OK. We'll go with these people from the island we sorted out, then we come back. So we'll see you guys later. But seven days at least forever. So see you later when I get onto the yard. Then my angels, I have some angels will be serving me wine, heavenly wine. Remember Jesus said you'll notice until you taste of the heavenly wine. I don't drink wine on air, but in heaven I'll be drinking wine. Oh yeah, Oh, yeah. I've been to wine, special wine. All the wine I couldn't drink here, I would drink it there. We're going to have a good time, a good, good time, a great time. And then my my head, I'll be feeling a little. Tired from the Crown I'll. Say, Uriel, Yes, Lord, Lord die. Sometimes they call me Prince. Die, Lord die. Take my crown. Put it in my wardrobe where the other crowns are. You know that I have more than 17 crowns when I keep them. Yeah, depending on the occasion I wear. Some are gold, some are only diamonds, some are precious stones. You know 4. Different things there. Was crown for church planting. There was a. Crown for books. My books, My Books. The crown was a very special one and had a crown for churches. Yeah. Then souls. That was the souls crown. That was the special one. The Lord gave it to me himself. Yeah. When they were presenting, the Lord came with the soul, the soul winner. And what the Lord had was soul winner. So when it was soul winning, found out the speech empires, the Lord came himself to present. He came stuff and put it on the and I was kneeling down and people were clapping. A lot of people thought so many they clapping were clapping soul, soul souls. Wow, people were really jealous because that's the. Crown that when I. Wear then the whole of heaven has attention. Other ones have other effects when you wear this one and there's a lot of attention in you in heaven. So I don't wear that often because it brings so much attention. There's some shining brightness in the area. Wow, it's going to be. Nice, I hope. You'll be there. Don't make any last minute mistake. So and pass to the side. Actually, you must get some crowns because some people will be staying in this. Barracks. With bunk beds, You want to sleep on a bunk bed in heaven? Have you not had enough of bunk beds? Priscilla, have you not had enough of bang beds for a lifetime? Yeah. So, Anna, what do you think? It's powerful. Are you going to enjoy having too? Yeah. And when I when I get on my boat, I'll be serving exotic foods from different countries. When you mention your country, you mention the best food and I call for it my, my chefs. I have so many chefs international for different countries. I said today we are doing Indian cuisine. Wow. I'm studying my affection on things about how many would like to be there. Yeah, so tune your retune. Your. Interests. But I could be saying, Oh yeah, I want to have this car, the one that does this and the one that is like this. It goes up, it goes down. It does this, it does. You are setting your affection here. I want to live here. I want to be here. I want to be in this country. I want to have this type of husband. I want to have this type of wife. I want this. I want all those things are down here. Wealthiness makes you misplace your affection instead of having affection for things about your affections are for things down here on earth. So tune and reset your affection and. Anybody here who has? Any slightest interest in the same sex. Remember, affections can be tuned and set, but it's not an instant process. You have to tune away and say I'm setting my affection. If you are a man on women, you never knew that a. Project would have to be calm for you to. Desire Woman. Woman. It is a problem, all right. We are almost finished #10 I told you. 11 Wealthiness. Can make you to be possessed by the devil demon. Possessed. But he turned and said. Unto Peter Matthew 1623 get thee behind. Me Satan, thou at an offence unto me, for thou savorest not the things that be of God, that those that be of men. We are going to sit in the amphitheater now. Get thee behind, me said. And you are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind. On the things of. God, but on the things of men, wow, you see men, the men in this world and he. Rebukes Satan, he said.
