21. Anagkazo

Welcome to Track. #21 of break forth and become who you can become. We are moving to Anakazu. Luke 1423. Go out into the highways and hedges and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. Amen. To me, a Nigerian should rather teach about Anakazu because the word anakazo means to compel it's it's it's it's more consistent with Nigerian behavior. Amen. In the ministry as against Ghanaian and Nigerians are more forceful, they necessitate, they drive, they constrain, they use all means such as false threats, persuasions and entreaties. That's why I take people to Nigeria to go and study the church there. Do you understand now beer which is a bad thing is force down the throat of people now how can you and a castle is a very important thing for church to grow because he said go out and compel them that my house may be filled. So if there was ever any vest which led to the house being filled. If there was ever any scripture which helped the house to be filled, it is this scripture because it's the only verse I know which is saying exactly what we are trying to do, filling the house with people. Amen. So this is one of the greatest. This book is one of the greatest Church growth secrets. Amen. And without it, you have a situation which is very akin to phlegmatism. What does akin mean? Similar to like related to near to akin Amen, which is what flagmatism perhaps there is no other verse, no other scripture Amen that is more connected to filling the house than this particular verse. So if a pastor were to meditate on only the Word, that one word, and the seven meanings that are in it, perhaps God may give you understanding and revelation to know what it means and what to do. Let us start with the first step. The first thing you get it. How can you parry to the front? How can you compel people in Aflow, Your pastor in Aflow? How can you compel practically somebody or the people in a flower to attend your church? Look, are you understanding? The man went out. He made a great supper. He invited many people. They didn't come. Then he sent out his servants to call the people. When they came, they went out, they called the people, but there was space. Then he sent them a third time, and this time he said, get the hall, the name, whatever, and go to the highways and the byways that my house may be filled, because those that were originally invited did not come. All those are revelations. Often the people that we want did not come. Now somebody should take the word compel who has a dictionary and let us meditate together. Are you ready to do Bible study together? Yeah, check it because I cannot see compel. Practically, how can you in Mombasa find a way of getting people to fail the church in Mombasa somewhere? How can you get people to fill what is that place called Zivila Zivila, what does it mean to compel oblige to do something? Brothers and sisters, when we meditate on this, we would doctor, go. Can you already feel it? Yeah, we will live here knowing what to do to oblige them to attend Lighthouse in particular. You will be obliged, you see, the way you can relate with the Ghanaian Embassy in South Africa, they will be obliged. What does it mean to be obliged? No, not really. It will be almost impolite if they don't come. It will be almost a bit, some way for them not to come to the church. The obligation. It's almost like it's like you don't go to the funeral in some way. Hello, hello, hello, hello. OK. Make legally or morally bound to do something. Yeah, how? How? If you have an embassy in your country, a Ghanaian embassy in your city, stand up. Ghana embassy is in your town and you are a Ghanaian. Ghana doesn't have an embassy in Cameroon. OK, All embassies come here. Go and sit down. You have been saved by the embassy staff. Look, are we doing a Bible study? How can you make a person who is in the Ghana embassy feel shy that he does not come to your church? Yeah. If you don't know, you pass the mic. That's all. I think that in my case, we've had a good start. Reverend Cloufio had a good relationship and with with with the embassy and. We tell us what can be done. Don't tell us your history, just tell us what you advise. OK, so based on that existing relationship. Give the mic to the next person please. We befriend the embassy staff because so far in Lagos we befriended. Have you been there to pay a visit? We've been there to pay a visit. To whom? To the main lady who deals with, you know, any Ghanaian who comes in, in terms of people. Coming Have you been to the see the ambassador? We've been to see an ambassador. And he saw you. He saw us. OK. You went specifically to visit see just. Went there to visit to say hello. To him and he was there. He was there. OK, but why did you hesitate when you were saying, yeah, we went to see that? No, we directly went there. No, no, I'm very sure. What were you wearing when you went there? I think I was wearing a no well see without tie, shirts, jacket, Trust myself and Revelations. Do you think he saw you as a main important diplomat in the country? I don't have any doubts he did. How many of you have been to your embassy to see the ambassador raise your hand? You've been to pay all respect to the ambassador. Step forward. No, not that. You went to ask for something, did you? How many went to ask for something? You went to ask for something, Put down your hand. What did you go there to do then? I just went there to greet him. To greet him, that's all. Can you tell them that we have a church lighthouse? It's in Kinshasa, so any Ganyan who is around and doesn't have a church, they can come to my church. OK, what about Professor Sawyer? I went to welcome him and to welcome his staff and to tell him that I'm a missionary and I would like to have a relationship with him. OK. I went to introduce myself to him and invited him to the church. Also gave him some books. OK, George. I went to. Greet him. He's an acting ambassador. So I just just before I came, what were you wearing? Come and stand here if it goes like this. Do you think the ambassador? Chris. Where's Chris? Chris and Quiku, Can you please assess? Where's Quiku? He's not here. OK. You have not been to see the ambassador. Chris. If he goes like this, do you think he's going to look impressive? What is wrong with his appearance now as he's going to visit the ambassador, He looks like somebody who works for ECG. You see like one of the guys who fixes the connector wires, who climbs the the poles, they inspect or read the meter. Well, why does he look like somebody? Is it the color of the shed? No. No, Bishop. The phone and where the phone is, and the badge, The pen in the pocket and the short sleeves. Where is your wife? You are behind. See, it is your duty to let your husband look like a diplomat. You are also an ambassador. You are an ambassador for Lighthouse as as that Ghana ambassador is an ambassador for the country. You are equally an ambassador. So it's ambassador to ambassador, not ambassador to clerical clerk or ambassador to a main field officer. Yeah, it's a country mission. The belt does not go. With the shoe. The belt supposed to match with the shoes. Hey, I didn't know. Everybody say ambassador to ambassador. Yeah. Bishop, I think that his his dressing looks like he doesn't take the visit serious because if you're going for an interview, you will not appear that way. An interview is about the most serious appearance that one can give. How many of you went with your wives? Your wife is not even in the mission, isn't it? She was there for how many weeks? Four months? And how many years have you been there? You are not a serious missionary in my estimation. I went with my. Bag. What? What bag is that? What bag? Jehovah Witness. You are a mission on the mission field. Your wife has been with you for four months out of two years and this is going to work. I don't think it's going to work, Mr. Mann. When? She came, she got when she came. She got pregnant not long after. So what? A lot of people give birth on the mission. Field the the financial our financial state at that time it was quite expensive for me to keep her there, so we decided to utilize the medical services in the UK rather. But you have to buy a ticket for her to go and for two tickets for them to come. So when are they? Coming she had a return next week, I think on Wednesday, she. And how long is she going to stay when she comes? No, we're going to go back together. So I'm going to organize. We're trying to organize to go back. Go back where? She's meeting me in Ghana, then we'll go go to Guinea. Will she stay there? Yeah. For how long before she leaves? Well, we I'm believing that she's not going to, she will not have to go back. Pastor Klufio, your comments on his Guinean, Our Guinean mission. Well, I think there is separation. I mean of the why AOL? I think the separation of I mean himself and the wife is not the best for I mean purposes of machine work. And I mean also the financial challenges, they will come up every now and then. So if now he says that he she had to go because of the financial state, if she comes and gets pregnant again it means another 4-6 months she'll be off again. Too. I think you'll be better off being a lay pastor in London with your wife. What do you think? Pardon. As the Lord leads, Yes. I I personally want to be in Guinea and I'm doing everything possible to stay there and move the church forward in Guinea. Who is the Bishop he left for that area? What is your opinion? Well, after we had our council meetings, we gave him two options. The first option was to close the mission and be relocated because financially I don't see how the mission will be going forward and he thinks he can survive. So the second option is, look, no money is being sent if you want to stay there, there's a missionary supporting the mission. So those were the two options, but I can't see the second one working. So am I expecting him to come back and say, look, I'm considering closing the place? Unfortunately, we have what, 40 Chad members? 4045. It doesn't look like the mission can go forward. That's that's investment of the council financially. Well, unless there's financial injection into the place, but it's been supported for two years and the income is nothing to write him about. It can't compare to the rent, the income is not. It can't support him. But Sir Kinsley, what do you think? I would recommend that somebody who is more free, that is one without a wife, currently be sent there and they manage to take the church to a certain. Level that can support maybe him, but for now looks as if the situation doesn't favor him. Should he maybe go to Ivory with your wife? Is he your wife not coming? Is he all these they are signs. So what about Ivory Coast? Would you like to join the Ivorians? She, she, she's coming. She. I'm expecting her next week actually. He has not answered your question. She would. She's coming to Ghana with a child next week. That's what it means. Doesn't mean that she's going to Guinea. She's she's going to Guinea because actually I wanted her to come. She was supposed to come for the camp but her brother was getting got married on the 25th of last month. So she had to stay for the wedding, even she would have been here by now. Ben Ben in Kinshasa, would you like him to be with you in Kinshasa? You think he can get a job? His wife is what? She's a pharmacist. Pharmacist We. Can get a job? Yeah, we can help him. Yeah. We can help him to get a job. And have them to get a job so that you become two are better than one, isn't it? It's a good move, isn't it? Oh, you have to assist Ben. You got your assist, Ben. It can work. You see, not everybody has to be the head. Some of us will. When you are assistant, the whole thing will work better. Then from there you can know what you are doing next. You get it that our 45 members in Guinea, near dams, near dams, Would you like to go and take over Guinea? You want to stay in Cote d'Ivoire and finish the work there. I. Will prefer Cote d'Ivoire but. Whatever you ask me to do, I will. Do but if I were. To choose that record you were yes, the the problem I I would say is a problem, but the the I think I asked that question yesterday in Guinea because the area where I started off and looking at the history of the churches that I've been able to survive the area is quite expensive, not yet quite expensive. And to move out means that it's going to be a bit difficult to also get a church to come out. So I was asking whether I was it would have been the wise distance just close the church down there and then move further out of Conakry start something. And then I think that was what Bishopsaki advised because the problem is getting a cheaper premises. I'm I'm I'm still looking for a place where either we could buy a land. I sent LPMA some pictures some time ago. Don't. Send things this is past. Those things are past now. OK, Ambassador to ambassador. Do these people look like ambassadors? You have not been to see the ambassador is because you don't see yourself as a great person. Do you understand who can go to the ambassador come to see you? Look, Chris, you need to dress up the young men, you understand. We need to have that impressive. Have you imagined the Archbishop who has not got your educational educational status goes? Don't you think that the ambassador will be afraid of him? Maybe I should talk to him and see how he can dress us. I think I'm going to call him to come and train our pastors. I'll call him even before he realize he will come tomorrow. Ambassador to ambassador. You are an ambassador, Emma. Come and stand here. You don't see yourself as an ambassador. How would the embassy staff be obliged to come? Those of you who have got a district chief executive in a place that you are stand up. Have you been to see him? If you have been to see him officially as ambassador, District chief executive is an is an envoy of the president to that area. How many have been to see him officially official visit where they are expecting when you are coming like how when I go for healing Jesus, I go and greet the greet the chiefs. He went as what? What I What did you go as? I mean, I didn't go into this in a church. As as an American. How many can see that there's something wrong with us? When I went. No, no, you didn't go as you went. As what? I went to ask him for track test for my farm. Yes. Amen, Bishop. As a matter of fact, we had DC, but when the government changed, there's a new DC. Actually, I was the one who was called upon doing his Thanksgiving service to pray for him, in fact, and prayed for the man. And he, he after he shook my hands and said I'm always welcome in his office. Now before I came this Sunday, the district chief, I mean that's the council of chiefs in the city land. They had a meeting and somebody came to tell me that they were considering 5 pastors in the church that they were supposed to invite to be on their board. That council and the Omahini said it's me he wants on the board. So they are bringing my letter. To put on the board of what? The Council of Chiefs. Yeah. Because yeah, I I go there and I go to prophecy, to the man you. Prophesied. I prophesied to him. I moved there. And one day the man wept. He said pastors have been to this town and none of them have come. When I go with your books, your magazines and all that, and when I'm leaving, I look at him and a professor. In fact, one day I went to the palace and then when I was praying, when I was leaving, he said sophom pacho, vampire, mami and suaco. So he put his hands behind him and he closed his eyes and then I prayed for them. Then the linguist asked him, he said when these bastards come around and even they even forced to pray for you and you don't even close your eyes. Why is it that this man when he came, you close your eyes and you put your hands and then you even asked him to pray for you. Then the man said Papa will be beautiful in Aidu. Otherwise, where I'm coming from, it's very heavy. It's heavy. It's very heavy. Now. When Reverend Tefu came to town for a convention, if you would remember, I took him to the DC's office, but the DC was not there. So he met the DCD. As a matter when there's a if I want some new miners coming to the town, like these foreign companies, they want to come. They have the DC writes me a letter and I have to come and pray in the program. And sometimes when I get there, there's this, there's a seat VVIP. The judge of the town sits on the VIP by me. They put me on the VVIP. So I was even, I was even coming to ask too much. Now, as a matter of fact, as a matter of fact. They they they call. For my car, they call for my car and put fuel in it for me. They call for your car. This year that left they they call that that assembly causes it go and bring the sofos car and then they will fuel it. Like when they hold meetings, like when they are having meetings, big, big meetings, that whatever they invite me and when I get that, the police commander is the one who opens my door and he opens the door as long as nothing. And and as a matter of fact, the the the royal, there's a royal in my church now. Last I came to, I think homecoming. I brought him to you to greet you. He one day can be the chief in attack and the guy's in to lose very wild guy. But the guy is converted and in my church, as that place where you are cursed, he's the only person who holds, like, the spiritual legal rights to reverse the case. Yeah, but now he's in my church. Now you should see when I send him around. Whatever. And. Oh, yeah, By the grace of God, yeah. So. So I've met them. They're busy. I send your books out of leadership and all that. Yeah. When there's a program in the town like this, look at, I don't even go for their meetings. The method is very reverent. You have to drive to my house. Oh, Reverend, we, we, we, we want you to come and all that kind of thing. So by the grace of God. Charlie, you have to lay hands on all these ambassadors. No, I, they, they must bring, they must bring white sheep without blemish before I prefer. White, white sheep. Without blemish. Bishop recently our land where we're building, I, I, I couldn't report it because it was a very sensitive issue, but God gave me the victory. The minds wanted to collect everything. My land, my where we are dirty. They attacked us seriously, They were very wild times for me. But by the grace of God, I entered into the mines. The general manager himself of the whole mine. I sat him down. I spoke to the man told. He said that he couldn't. He had to bring his whatever the human resource. He came to I. It was not easy for them. Where in five days time they wrote a letter. They say we have stopped everybody but you. You can build. Yeah, and even the. DCD and I wrote the. Letter. It's it's it's. It's giving it to Alice. It's there. Yeah, Alice, you have it. No, I'm going to give her a copy of that because we are, we are. I mean, went to the DCD. In fact, the DCD even came to fight the, the, the whole assembly stood behind me because of the books I sent. When every senior minister comes to town, most of them Reverend Terrible, I took him to the assembly. When he came, those were the main places. I, I I I sent him to. I think what he is doing is what you are not doing. And you see most of you here are more educated than he is in terms of secular education. He has not been to a university. Have you been to university? Bishop I didn't go to Tech, I didn't go to. I went to the World Maritime University, whose branch is the original Maritime Academy, which is a university. So I've been to an investor. OK, you see, he didn't go to any of what we recognize as university. If I went somewhere to him, it is as good as whatever I see also of you doctors, University of this, this, that, that, that you see, look at you very humble looking honestly. And you see, he what he's doing, you can do it in your town, you know, and the way he carries himself, even he's dressing as a even in the casual, there's a prophetic all right. The way I wave, oh man, when I talk. The way when I wave my hand in. He wave his hand like this. You need to see him know how to wave that. You. Say the man is important, I'm telling you. So brothers and sisters, obviously the people and the embassies, the disease and the what have you are not obliged. We're talking about Anakazo. What makes them obliged and compelled to be a part of your church, morally bound? It's like there is a pastor in this town. I know him, he comes, he's spicy. So Anakazo involves going to them in such a way. They know you so well, and it's like for them not to be part of your function as an equal ambassador from a major church. It's very odd. Yeah. And if they come to your church, and even the inside of the church is shabby, obviously an ambassador cannot stay there and you don't have instrumentalists and this. And when you go to see the person, you go as a delegation. You get it. You are where? Burkina Faso. Sit down, you guys. Sit down. What do you think about this gentleman Chris? Can it work? Give him a mic. Give it Chris a mic. Your name is Papayos. All right. There's something wrong, Ambassadorial. He looks like a young guy. So you have to do so much Salas. Camp Salas is not much fatter or taller, but there's an aura. It's like father and son. Body like see like this the father, this the son. Meanwhile they are all the same height. Yeah. Why You are smallish and your shirt is also sagging. It enhances your smallness. But Pastor Silas, he There's a little starch in the thing, which makes it stand a bit. So that that starts yes. If you come buy the spray 1, you see they sell some in the market. They cut 2000. That is 20 pence worth 30 pence. You buy you, you boil water you when they put in the one that you, that's the last rinsing you rinse with then you hang. That's why I use you sprinkle with water, you iron you. You don't have to buy the spray one. It's expensive. I think, I think it's true. Archbishop doesn't wear things that are not starched. Everything is heavily starched, shiny, stiff. Yes. And it stands. I think that's one starch. Chalet. Receive a starch revelation. I think we are breaking now. Right. OK, Yeah. Chalet. You see, Anakazu, we are not obliging the people to be part of what we are doing in that particular country. We are not obliged, yeah. Bishop, I also think that its about the way you carry yourself in the corporate world. No, we, we know this is a problem with us. Tell us what to do now because we, we, we have gone through Ghana complaints. Now we want ideas for Ghana. The The thing is, you must know what you are with and we are, we are the Bible says that we are royal peaceful. We are, we are something. So we must know it. We must believe it and and. Walk with it and what do you do? The way is is. Is looking at the. Tell us what to do. Don't. Don't complain about. We know we are deficient. I'm not complaining, I'm trying to. Explain what? Tell us number one, do this. Like this Number one believe. Believe in the anointing on your life. OK, good number two. Walk with it. Walk with the confidence that you have something behind you. OK. You know, it's like purposefully. You know what? As against which are that type of work? As against no. You see. But this one looks like he's a He's a guy, no? No, no, no. But you see, Pastor Salas has a serious face. Yeah, it's like a serious because I didn't want those two where the guys look very serious. Those are the people that are feared. So now you need a serious thing. Don't have to be smiling. Yeah, your hands are swinging too fast. It's coming. Yeah. Yeah, it's coming. I think we have a revelation here. The question If you were the president of this country, how would you work? No, if you are the president, definitely you're working with change because your, your, your thinking has changed. And that is how you. At Tamils, Yeah. What are you saying? The I think that in this regard, one of the things that you said yesterday was about language and bullets. I remember growing up a very nervous person, and then I realized that when you have a good command of language, it, it gives you something. And so I set out to learn how to speak. That was one thing that for me, helped me. Secondly, I learned to practice in front of a mirror when before I left secular work, I was giving a job which was quite high up. And I remember Reverend Patrick coming to my office one day and looking at me and saying, yeah, you are a small girl among big people. You have to change something, you know? And so I began to practice in front of a mirror, how to speak and all of that. And once you gain command over that, it changes a lot of things. And so I'm not. Later people will tell me when we see you, we become nervous and I was like, what have I said? But it it gives you a certain self-confidence practically. So I think it's another thing that we should learn to do, yes. So walking with slow swinging hands on the side, is it correct? Is that how it's done? Not it's not right. The aura, the real 1. Ambassador. Ambassador himself. Yeah, you're not in a hurry as I guess you are working and wipe in your sweat when you get the ambassador's house and you say you went with your bag. What bag is that? You don't have to carry any bag. Don't carry any bag. He was carrying a bag. What bag was that? OK, this message continues. On the next track, keep listening.
