Anathema Maranatha

The presence of God have been so strong, the move of the spirit, the move of His power. I will instruct us for a few minutes, and that will take time to break. But by all means, after the Lord, you release veteran in your direction. Have the Lord to suffice you with much of himself, so that you will live there. Change, You will live here, change forever. You are right. You are censire your arm skin, Gordos, you are mighty on your throat, and I understand all the leadership. You are doing a great and an awesome job. And you will not understand this strategic nature of what you are doing, because the scope of what you are doing is not just about the people you are affected. It's about the vacuum you are feeling in the spirit realm. Most times, the reason ministries are borne, it's not just because it is captured within the context of ordination. Most times, the reason ministries are born is because there are vacuums in the scribity that many have not reason to occupy. So the corporate purpose of God cannot be fulfilled. So when the man is fulfilling the ministry, it's natural for him to judge the significance of his ministry by the walk he is seen on ground. But if God wants to really show you the import of your ministry, it will show you the transgenerational move of God. That's when you would understand this scope and the impact of your ministry. For example, the ministry of John the Baptist did not last for a very long time. The Bible said he was in the wilderness a luke one eighty, a tidy day of his showing forth onto. Israel, and the moment John a man, he began to cry. Not too long from them, Jesus showed up, and immediately you hear that eye must decrease. Why he increases. So the scope of his ministry was very short. But in the spirit realm, when Jesus was giving credence to the quality of his ministry, he said, no man born of a woman has been like John. He said, it's the greatest of all of them that have existed. Because of this strategic nature of his ministry. So oftentimes it's natural for us to george what we are doing by the location and by the people we are affecting. But God shows you the calendar of heaven, you will not know how strategic you are. So this morning, we want to begin by acknowledging the labels we are put on ground, and we ask that the Lord will cause it to increase and to be on the progressive. Rise in the name of Jesus Christ. And for those of us who are here, there sessions of invitations, the recessions of healings. But I want you to know that what God wants to do with you is beyond healing, is beyond what you will receive from God. God wants to recruit this generation because of the move that is already in progress. This face is very significant. I am emphasizing the times so that the things that we share this morning will make meaning to you. Not every moment is the same in the calendar of God. There are certain seasons that are chiros moments. And for a chiros moment, as short as. It is, it is what gives value to the chronos comments. If farmam may spend the whole season planting, watering, and watching over the seas, but the time of harvest is what gives relevance to his labor. So the time of harvest becomes more significant than every other moment, because if he fails in the time of harvest, he has lost everything that he labored for. So Jesus entering Jerusalem in Luke chapter nineteen, first forty four, the Bible said, he lamented over the city. He said, there will be mash of tea. He said, no stones be left on turn. Why because thou knowest not the times of the visitation Jerusalem, the great city of the kings, Jesus said, it will be crushed. It will be. The reason is because they don't discern the times of their visitation. There are many times when God comes, and all he does is that it brings a whisper into your heart. That whisper becomes the instruction for your destiny. You may have attended many meetings, met many men of God, received many importations. But that whisper that God brings to your heart is the blueprint of your destiny. If you miss it. Every other meetings, every other importation, every other's thirty of the world of God might be a waste. This is why every time we're coming to the presence of God is important to discern what the move of God is for that time. But a lot of benevers are not aware. I have traveled for many meetings, I have journey to many men of God, and I have met many great preachers. But a point came. I realize that discerning seasons is one of the most hatiner essence. Of our work we go. It defines our walk, it defines our value, and it gives credence to our colleagues and our donations. Tonight, I want you to be aware that this diasion is a recruitment season. Most times we came for meetings like these, people want us to stand where widely shout. What the instructions they neglect is what we make them important. I was talking with somebody earlier this yesterday, and the point we raise was we have the vival meetings. Of course, glory to Jesus. But I was sharing with someone and then we said, how did we become what we have become is by the progressive instructions that we have received and our compliance to those instructions that have changed our stories are the lawyer. So this morning, if we don't discern the seasons, we may take things for granted. We may want the service to be as usual, have the same experiences we always have, do the same things we always do, and go back with the same things. We do every time we live things like this and will not make the most of it. Personally. I believe that transformation is the most important dimension of God that a believer can domesticate becoming like God. Every other thing follows it personally, So most times my body is to have people transform, And tonight I've been sharing a few things with you that we stake he hunger in your spirit and we cause a transformation in your life so that you become a lemon internally with God. You may be anointed, you may not be significant. You may be popular, you may not be significant. You may organize great meetings, you may stee not be significant. This is why when you've doctive Bible characters, the doctrines who have received the techies, who have received the lives of this man, begins to comforting those teaches, because you don't understand why a man who was in the wilderness all his life, who came out probably for a year or two, becomes more important than profits that call down fire from heaven. You know, you don't understand why a man who was at the back side of the wilderness not known having those statues among men, the Maac who said he dressed in camerskin, he fed on money and locusts. How can such a man whose ministry did not splan for of the three years? How can that man be more important than every other prophet that have lived before him? Or the nations assignments accuracy and precision with God. It's important for a generation to discern their chirost moments. That is when the dealings of God in your life will be important. You may not discern the importance of the dealings of God in your life. You may not know why you started with everybody, as if everybody has gone ahead of you and you are in that spot and nothing is making sense in your life, Aunt Tea, you begin to discern the seasons of your life. You begin to discern the weight of your delation. Your dealings cannot make sense to you. Auntie, you know they ceasings of God. Ok By your life if in location where God plants, you will not make sense to you. This morning, I want to share with us. I'm taking it gradually because when I came in, I saw that we're also the power of God. Have moved, I've enjoyed the presence of God. You've danced and everything. So I want to instruct you in glory to Jesus. So maybe what we bring you this morning is just to teach you and then we'll have time to brave while glory to God. Would that be a blessing to somebody. Our topic for the conference is maranata, and amazingly, that word was used once in scriptures, the word maranata, and it was used with another compound word in scriptures. In First Corinthians that does distreverst with the two Bos said, if there is any one of you that does not love the Lord. If that be anyone among you that does not love the Lord, it say, let that one be ana maranata. You see, because of the weight of what for wanted to communicate, that world could not be captured. You see, the translators had a challenge trying to give definition to those words, because the world and nama it means to hang off something that is consecrated, just like the life of a man is already sold out to God. But that man is removed and kept on a shed. And you do nothing about that man on the Lord comes. So the essence of this world in itself is not God Come. God Come, as it has always been interpretain. This word was used to let us know the significance of having relationship with God. So Poor was emphasizing that if a believer, a concentrated person, does not have experiential relationship with God, what happens to that man is that if an though he is consecrated. He said, that man will be kept on a share on the God comes. If the only man that not not Jesus Christ is said, let him be an atall Ma maranata. That means you can be the sanctuary of God what you have kept on the shares. What it means is that your life no longer strikes a card in eternity. You are part of the company of believers. You are praying in terms. You are firsty. You are worshiping with the believers. What because the love of God is not in the champ of your soul, He said, your services have no value. So you may be the one leading the prayer for the whole year. But if by any means they mot has come into the auditorial and they begin to sounding the heart of men in order to bring them into depth of tato and ranked with God. He's even though you are the one on the altar, your position on this world and hatay Mamma Anata. So your prayer have no value, your fasting have no value. You're already your capacity. The church have no value. The reason is because love is not in your heart. For Jesus, the significance of this world is not a cry for Lord come. The significance of this world is for people to begin to. Grow in the love of God. This is why Jesus that has not seeing the call this song of the church in Eversos, the church and everythirst was. A church that was decided in this viirit. They had understanding, the Bible. Said, they improved their apostles that because they had depth in spiritual intelligen to the degree that they put George, spiritual teens and even men that have authority in the Kingdom of God. They could descend distach they are calling and the tange where that you were accurately God. They had certain level of spiritual intelligence, the Bible said, they proved the apostles. It was in the churching Ephisods that cat the highest mystery that he ever lad But when Jesus was lost in the condition the talk in Ephisos from the result siety, Jesus said, you have lost your first love and because there was no love in that church for God, he said, the candu stick will be removed. You know that when the cardu stick is removed to heaven on earth, you can be the biggest torture. What territorially you have no implication in heaven. You have no relevance because you are singing praise and worship on heath. But you are not an illumination in the spiritual. The reason is because there is no love. So you are an atm maranata. So everything you are doing is pending on tea. The law comes, he said, then we can poses offare been neble to be. So when we begin to really scriptures like this, these are the times where we apply the lah. We are shut down first of all, to charge our intention. Where you are letting the prayer in short and you are creamy, and you are as in vibration. What is your motivation these kinds of prayer, these kinds of scriptures. Rather are scriptures that prove into our hat, charge our essays. What are the thing is that fascinated hope? You know, if you're putting programs like this together costs a lot of money, But what is your motivation? Because when a spirit comes to probing, it's not so moved by the things you do. It doesn't take a spirit anything to generate anything to effect. They are the ones that the affairs of men. But when a spirit comes to a territory where people are functional, that it's what it does. It's first of all to check. So when I look at scriptures like this, it brings heaviness to my hat. And then I set to down this travel that I travel from place to place every other week. What is my motivation? That is why pauls say you can give your body to be burned. What if you have not love? You see a man who comes is bumped to this deep You say, what kind of man? Is this? A spirit? Way? George and say they sacrifice that that man have put on the table does don't have words enough compared to man that gave one thousand iran. So you can come to the point where your body is not that it pants one thousand bemus. The man who is give you one thousand is given by law, is motivated by law. But you who went as far as gipping your body to be born, when they checked your heart, there was no love there. So Paul said that to your sacrifice is useless. So spirit does don't george us based on the weight of what we do. They talk your festival from the depths of our oppression. And one of the things that define our debt is the quality of our love for Jesus. The significance of Maranata is not lort com the significance of anatas. Who are you before God? What is the quality of your heart? What is the condition of your heart? Every time you walk with the spirit of God, it is possible for you to come to a place where you are doing everything you are doing because you are the leader. You may not even discern your condition. That you're already falling. Auntie. Maybe something goes wrong and they remove you from that position. There you will now discover that that church will come every day. As the first man suddenly disease dies. You now strove to church casually and you sit at the back. You are no longer the leader. You're motivate, and what's not love for Jesus. You may discover that you give, and you keep giving more than every other person untill one day they passed offends you or they didn't recognize you as they should recognize you. All of a sudden your money goes back to your pocket. You know longer ad first the kingdom. At first you say you love the Kingdom of God, so you can't give anything to ad first the Kingdom of God or TI. They remove the onward that is your life and let us of God. And then suddenly you now discover that what was motivating you was not the kingdom and funds. What was motivating you was They all know that is apong your life. Your condition is what and ertain mama anatick you can be the lead vocalist in the choir. And because every time they say massive, who says you are the one that leads? And certainly they have a program like this and all of it. Certainly they say you will not be the lead. So this time around, let somebody else do it. And all of it's certain yours ze for the program, the program you're prepared for eight months now the program has called your z have died because you will no longer be on the altar. Say your condition is and actain mamatter this aspriptures that call us to meditate on our lives. Because the challenge of working with the spirit is that he will be patient until the end, if only spirit has come to us to tell us this is your condition, this is your condition, so that we do Did you read about Judas Jesus saw him doing everything he was doing, and even at the leveled our chillers said that ptue must do do quickly. This guy was heading into his destruction. And Jesus looked at him and said, what that vitue want to do quickly? What if Judus was notified that the direction we are going the end is that to red the song repetition is to have heap to his destiny. But when the speed it wants to judge. You, he wait until the end. And at the end there is no room to change the game anymore. The story has already been concluded. So he said, if you don't have love, the second. That's litory, if it's to us, is that of the quality of our walk in the speirity is not our gifts. The checker of the quality of our walk with God is not our charisma. The checker of the quality of of our walk with God is worth. Our capacity is not our love. For Jesus, if on love the law of our capacity is re listen, you can conveient and genuinely. You are the only man that has the capacity to force everybody to predict through the night. And that's a very beautiful position to be. Is an exceptional manifestation of the grace of God. What your capacity will be useless if there's no love. The first thing I talked about was motivational Love is the checker of our motivation. The second thing now is that love is the check of the quality of our relationship with God. Your capacity is useless unless, first of all, this thing is at the center. Paul finished writing to the Corinthians. Remember the church in Qurity is the most gifted of all the churches. When Paul wrote to churches. He wrote to churches based on their conditions. Paul was a wise master builder. He didn't write to people because he knew the world of God. You know, it's one of the temptations of people who are not yet mature. Everywhere you go, you want to display what you have. Maybe you are coming to a place before are heard about you, so as you showed them, there's an opportunity for you to display everything that you have, because to you, it's a statement you are making to where you are made to but Paul was not like that. When Paul entered the territory, he that knows in those people had in the spirit, and he emphasized it, Paul could come to a church and he will not move in any gift of the spirit. He was in Ephesus, and for two and a half years it was only arguing. And debating, because he knew that a problem of the people was that they were giving to ideologice and philosophies. So their crisis was not sickleus. Their crisis was the fact that philosophies of the Greek theologians had put them in slave in slave. So throughout this day and the sources was arguing, Paul would go to the marketplace and argue from money to night, and then you will look at him and say, aha, I thought Paul was an annointed creature. Annointing at that point it was not what the people needed. What the people needed was clarity. They needed understanding. So when Paul showed up in the territory, it was the need of the people that telling the dispense of grace in his life. Jesus said to them in Jones's dictating, he said, I have many things to tell you what you cannot deceive it. That means Jesus did not talk to people because he knew. Jesus spoke to people because of their needs. I have many things to tell you what you can't receive. It, How be it? When the spirit of truth is come, he will guide you into audis verse twelve. I have many things to tell you you can't give it. How be it when the spirit of truth is come. So Jesus himself, even though he was the completeness of the world of God, he did not just talk because he knew audience. Jesus tells you what you need by time. As you are now, there are things you need for tomorrow. Jesus, we keep it on the tomorrow comes, Jesus will tell you what you need for today in order to any securities. Counsel with your life today. Even though he knows what we need in the next twenty years, he may not any and he may ever speak, and he will hide it from you. You will hate it, for you can't have understanding. So when the man gains acturity, he addresses people at the point of their led. Paul will come to callish. And what Paul was doing in Calaysia was to use his apostolic authority to establish them back to Christ, because the legalist wanted to throw them back to the law. Paul would come to courage. The people were carried away by gifts and they were living in sea. Yet they were judging their maturity by their gifts. So somebody comes to George and inflows the world of knowledge for four hours, and they say, this man has statured, this man has statued. So pol came and saying you were this, you are Canner. And then he began to show them the importance and the administration of the gifts of the spirit. So they reason tapped them was because they need them to have understanding. Asked to what really mattered. Not what they could do. He came to effisult and the. Acumen was to correct their theology. The reason is simple because what they needed at time is what God was doing in their lives. And I'm using that to explain that if you don't have love for God, your capacity is being So a man comes for a meeting. You did you came to see certainty? What there is an issue in your life? That's what God goes to address this morning. What is the quality of the love of God in your heart. You can lead prayer on the orter for ten hours. How love do you pray your bedroom? You can give on the orter for the poor because they made a call to give to the poor, and you walk to the order to drop something. But when you see the poor on the street, how often do you give to them? You can lead worship for three hours, and you are leading the worship, you are crying. When was the last time you worship God in your room and cried? Capacity is useless without the love of God. Maranata is not just Jesus call. Maranata is the definition of the quantity of our relationship with God. Thirdly, Maranata speaks of maturity spirit one maturity. One of the crisis of the Church of the Body of Christ today is that there are too many babes on the platform. One of the crisis in the House of God today is that there are too many babes doing too many things in the House of God. So the more we do what we do, the more whom we open to territorial spirits to have influence in the House of God. Most times demons are shielded from the House of God. We begin to work. If we were not carrying out activity on the orter demonic influences that they reduced. But every time we can be a open of chambers for operation of the demonic rel because our life is full of too many cabbages. The man who is leading the worship he comes up to him is a show. He doesn't understand that what he's doing is a handloading and he should do it with fear and trembling. The man who is ministry when it comes up to him is a show either of how much crypture he knows, of his kill of handling scripture, of how annointed it is. What he doesn't realizes that his life is supposed to be a gate to which God flows into the auditorium. The man who is on the puppy, his goal is to prove a point that is the current lost anointed person and that there are many things he can do. Me Why why he was on the orter? What was the phercises something different, But it's on that pressure. Even the man who invited the creatures on that pressure for the show. He's important about what God wants to tell the people, and it's all about canna manifestations. The reason is simply because we don't have maturity. This is why many revivers are truncated. People begin to call upon the name of the Lord genuinely. The devil say, wait, let them do what they're doing at the end of the day. That's creditual investment with the waste, because he knows that they're not giving themselves to the protocol the spirity to face the maturity. So it is when God is actually pleased that confusion comes in. So you see five people that love themselves pressing after God, pushing after God. The devil is not trouble. He knows they see they have they can't stop them. So instead of wasting its results stopping them, he allows them to continue with their prayer. And then these people pray on God down Annoin. It's one and it's high school, and he becomes a prophet. And every time they are praying that one begins to professor the next thing before others go back and they begin to gossip. The one that profs sign the devil have not called me when their immaturity have destroyed what God is doing. The devil doesn't need to come among believers that are not mature. They are immaturity. We destroy what God's doing. And if God helps them for others, and they are so what in the one who is prophet sighed, all of a sudden, the one who is prover signed becomes a king. He now wants to go out. He tells them to clear his shoes, because all of a suddenly, all the already a none comes to him, because people are looking for the one that can perform. All of a sudden, all the honor comes to him. Mean wife, five of them began their ministry, suddenly becomes for the one who is gifted, and then the ones who are not gifted. He tactically pushes them out. In fact, he will be the one to put them from the system. They started as five men that God gave a vision, but only him became annointed. What he would do is that he will make sure this folk never existed that vision. He will put that vision and raise the mute narration because he doesn't want people. At this level. Meanwhile, demanded that God gave us for fife and not knowing that he's atracising the other for I've already destroyed the potension of what God wants to do. Immaturity in the house of God. We think it's about teens. We think it's about show. So every time we. Come before God, our focus is not Jesus. Our focus is Teas you see people fasting and praying for the whole year, you ask them what is their motivation? They want to flow in world of knowledge to what end? They're not even to have body for souls. So word of knowledge is to come on the altar and to manifest. And then people say, oh boy, that guy's forensic is going satisfied for everybody to talk about them, that they're forensic. Somebody is praying for power for one year. You ask him what is the problem. He doesn't even have body for the sick. You. We think he's calling for power because he is tired with your oppression of the devil. You think he wants to do something because he cannot tolerate the devil is greedy people anymore? Why you jet this life? It is only the power that we're announcing. So what is pursuing this announcement? It has nothing to do with God. That is killing immaturity. So we nature in the minus our focus and not on things that have turned that value. But when spirits come to weigh your work, they will not be moved by your abilities. They will be moved by the exactness the accuracy of your hat with God. I told them the other time, Noah, for one hundred years was flowing in on top discernment of spirits. Every dimension of the act that Lower built. Noah was seeing it in the spirit and building it in the natural. When God came, the Bible never recorded about his discerning ability or the Bible looked at. Was his heart, He said, he feared God. When God spoke, he said, he moved with fear. So that was the only thing that please God. Among men, you may say, oh boy, this guy's annointed. Though, so you will go to heaven. You will look, I said God, God, that place you put that lay. When I saw heaven, there's no live there. Remove the lay and put the nave. This time, you said, Jesus, you see heaven. Somebody is looking at like this. That is we wow, men, not spirits. When God showed up, what moved God was the hed of Low, he said, no I was moving constantly in fear. The fear of God was what gave Lower cretaense in heaven, maturity, maturity to be able to handle spirit to a team with honor. Until related is lacking. We are here. Now you think we love God. Wait at the God drop something on us, Wait up to all of us, yet begin to touch substance. Maybe sodenly takes a job and begins to end money in six digits. That's why you see him, you and say, come to the house and tell me about the program. The person that was running around Now you say, ah, this person is humble. Wait he has money in his account. Wait at everybody talks about it. The guy that easily apologizes whenever he's wrong, and he say, oh God, that said just hat. Wait twenty years power. So we expect ourselves pursuing after the teens God have offered, not God, And when those things come, those things become the reasons why we are destroyed. Why do you pursue after word of knowledge? Why do you after the healing annoyed him? Why do you pursue after open doors? Why do you pursue after platforms? Why do you pursue after a good voice? Why do you pursue after deliverance? Power? Is it for Jesus and his kingdom? Al it's because you think that's what we make you. It is intuity. But when we discern correctly, what is the buddy in the heart of the Father. Our priorities, which use our priorities are wrong because we are waves. That's why the Bible said in Epicials five twenty seven, he said that God is coming for a church without sport or ricus. So what we invoke the coming of Jesus. Our ability to come to a point of perfection, when we have gained maturity and we know how to handle Hall Lord matters. Then at that point we are able to call maranata. So Branatha is not necessarily a prayer. They call maranatha a contemplative prayer, but it is beyond it. Maranatha is not necessarily a prayer. Maranatha is actually a state of the heart. When the church comes to maturity, naturally the Lord we come. This is the reason why God gave the fight for me, He said to so he gets to be a posts efficients for e level to so we give to be profits to some. We have to be a vangelist, stars and teacher for the. Evil whipping of the city, for the walk of the ministry, until we all come to the fullness of the measure of this stature of Christ. Maturity. What maturity is lacking in the body of Christ. Many investments of God in life have been wasted because the church is not grown many investments. Most times they're rasy. Christens the believers and Christ is pushed to a corner as if it has no power. It's not because there's no investment of digility. It is because we are immature. God releases everything we need to have territorial influence, but we are immature. One person has power, he runs away, and he thinks it's about self. One person is in netbhood, he runs away. One person is blessed, a corporate gathling that God is crazy in order to have ranking, to be able to challenge tactless. All of a suddenly that gathering is chatas because God begins to bless them maranatas a call for maturity. What is the quantity of Christ that is formed in your hands? What said for him? One of the reasons is what waited to pray is so that Christ can be formed in They had to fish to do. It is in my little children, of whom I surveil again in prayer, that actually formed in you. Poor knew that was the first and behaviors Molechue of divinity, the lack of a man. If Christ is not found, then every other in God gives us a wist. What is the quality of your maturity? What to what extent have you grown about this of God? The things that motivates you, why do you desire them? Maranata fourty Maranata is an awaking call for the Gospel to be prayed to the ends of the earth. The Bible said the March tw twenty four fourteen. He said, this gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached as a weakness to all the natures of the world. He said, death the end we come every time we pray and ask God come the waste. There are things that scriptures have outlined as precossoms for the coming of Come one of them. Because when you say Ranata, you say Lord come. What it is not to call him to come? Their precursos. God himself instituted this precoursus to bring about the release of the spirity. What are those? Because this lost foul of the Kingdom shall be preached as a witness. What is the quality of your weakness? They will class where you are, the host, where you are the school? Where you are? What is the quality of your witness stript just like this a cause of a wakening. It is a beautiful team to join the choir, it's a beautiful thing to join the prayer band. And we come to charge and excite ourselves so much. But our immediate friends don't feel the vibration. Our immediate family don't feel the vibration, our roommates don't feel the vibration. That means what we are years vic If I call myself a preacher and that's not affected my friends and my family. What I am doing is correct a job. I am only reciting what I heard. A part can do a better job. But if there is witness in my life, it should affect every body around me. That's why everybody that came around Jesus became a bleacher. That was the kind of life he was living. So there was no way you came around Jesus and he doesn't affect you. You could come as a phishama, you come as a as collector, you go come as. A sinner, But if you meet him, something will happen to you. You will become who he is. What is the quality of our business? That's one of the calls. That's pictures like First Correctial sixteen twenty two gives us. They call for witness. How much of God can you demonstrate to your world? Is it about punking in church? Now? We have so reduced the value of prayer as how long that prayer is. All prayer is now is time? It's now time we pray for seven hours, we pray for ten hours, we pray for twelve hours. The person is not how long you are praying. They think you are praying about how much of it is happening. I told them in legals last week, I said, if you want to judge the quality of your territorial intercession, don't judge it by how long we pray. Judge it by the texture of the life of God that is seen in that territory. The elder's of old they knew what to look at. These guys. Sometimes they talried in prayer for ten days. Nobody goes home. You will never hear it in scripture that they pray for ten hours, because even to how long we pray, it's important they go. It's not the time they go is the effect of the prayer. People pray when they are tongue is a lying tongue people. Firsty tongue is a lying tongue, and they never pay attention to it. They come to torch and pray, and the moment they go out of the child beauilding they are different people. So even the devil we allowed, go and pray. When you finish, come back, let's do business together. Meanwhile, the goal of the prayer is for you to come into intimacy with God so that you can carry God to your world. But you have missed the priority. They go. It's no longer witnessing, they go, it's now a show of. What we can do. So we waste biritual things. Jesus said, don't give splituate things to the swine. It will take it from you as stamp. You would samp it on the foot. People pray for graces. To make a show out of it is a hard crime. The Bibles spoke about their disciples, just a handful of them. The Bible said, this be the men that turned their walls upside down. In our day today, our priority is the number of people we can sit in our tuitorial. It's no longer about the effect of our message and our territory. Meanwhile, the Bible said concerning their apostles. They said, they have literaped the whole of Jerusalem with their doctrine. That means the guy who is selling the market is talking the wage of the apostles. The guy who is who is walking in the bank is talking the language of the apostles. They say they told the awards of Satan. Is there anything wrong with a large congregation? No, but what is the effect in the territory? Maranata A call for witnessing. You have been a Christian for five years. Often now nobody comes to you because they can't see God you, so there can be no experience of the return of Jesus in your life. You made to sing yourself and tell yourself a whole lot of things. What Jesus cannot be seen in your life. You have been a believer for ten years. Nobody can come to you and say, Sister, give me God the counsel. I'm not talking about somebody who is seek and say come and pray for me. Nobody has seen God in your life enough to have the challenge and said, please, what do I do? Nobody I've seen enough in your life to come to you and say, please help me. I have a challenge. I don't know what the devil is doing in my life. There is no witness, there's no sufficient witness what the Bible said. It's a computer to none, he said. But you are a choosing generation, a royal Cristo, he said. God's will specially a peculiar leasure. He said, card forth to show So it's not just. About being now. It is to be enough that you can't demonstrate, he said, to show forth the virtues, the perfections, and the excellences of Him that have caused you to glory and virtue. But the weakness of our life is not sufficient, because we have not come to a point where our life is a complete commuter to God thanatime. This is why you may cry, Lord, Come Lord, Come Lord, come your voice we know are said beyond your celing. You may do it and cry, and when you are done crying for three hours you feel comfortable with us. But okay, become the actual. Your love. That statement about the call of Jesus to come is the quality of the business. It's because of few men. That we are gathered like this. What if we have twenty of them? So we want to programs now to see somebody stand on the author and demonstrator, and the man of God prepares himself to come and perform. But when their pursus came out, the quality of their preaching was not their textanity of scripture. The quality of their preaching was not their excellent communication, their q. The quality of their preaching was the transformation. In the lives of people. He said. The reason they were pursus is for the perfecting of the saint. So the man is preaching where if people are transformed. If people are not transformed, no matter how telling gener sound, it's not preach away. But say I be lost. First collage as two from one to four. He said, when I came on to you, came not I with excellency of speech, declaring not to you the counsel of God. He said, I choose not to throw anything among you brought Christ and he puts a fire. He said, when I came, my preaching and my world was in the demonstration of. Spirit and power. Why he said that to your faith. So everything Paul was doing had nothing to do with himself, he said, because of your faith. The reason I preach the way I preach, the reason I acted. The way I acted, was your faith. He said to your faith will not be beauty in the wisdom of man, but in the power of God. That's a man that grows priority, that's a witness. Let me tell you a short story. You don't take God anything to make you. It doesn't cost a spirit anything, whether it be in the Holy Spirit or demonic spirit. Most times, what spald look at before they begin to raise a man's the quality of the weakness that that man can produced. It takes a. Spirit nothing to make you. Overnight, your name can be noised around the relations. It takes God nothing. It also takes a team or nothing. And did this day ahead of two thirty young boys who were somewhere around at Jagole and Legos. They just did a video rapping and they put it on Instagram and in two weeks, in two weeks they had ninety nine thousand views. Why because one of the superstars carried the video and shared it and I wrote a comment about the potential the boys heard. In that same two weeks, these guys were picked from where they were. They did a collabor with one of the top music guys and in two weeks they became superstars. These guys were about sixty years sevent three years ago. So what they could not achieve by their family lineage, by their family heritage, and by their age or their lives, they had it in two weeks by love natural has a lection. They were not given advantage to prosper because they were born into poor hopes, into poor energies by reason of age, they have not even come up to provide for themselves. But the spirit are lighted on them, and in two weeks. They are still be changed. It doesn't take a spirit anything to make you. The question is what is the quantity of your witness? If for the empowers you today, what would the effect be a spirit raven? Those are the things that bought has a spirit. Because when the places is influence on your life, in one week your story can change. But what would be the quantity of your influence? What would be the quality of your witness? Are you the type that all of a sudden when you get you know? The Vibele said something in a in Festival chapter three, what said never is in lovis? He said, when he's reasy the death, we take advantage of him and he will bring reproach to the body. What God godgees in our lives. Truly is the quality of our obsess got Many are not aware. This is why every time your priorities must be right. The first thing that determines your accuracy is not how much titture on your love, is the love you have for Jesus in your heart. You can't deny it. If it is there, it is there. If it is not there, it's not there. Every time you move, I. Love the Holy Spirit because the only goes is. Like an alarm in your heart. He will never keep quiet. He will keep blowing the alarm. Every time you take an action. The only goes We tell you your motivation as you came. Up to washing God. If your conscious lessons or your address the only goes, well tell you he will never keep quiet. That is one of the things he came to do your life, because he came to perfect you. If your consciousness is your skin, her only goes with telling you he will not keep quiet, because the goal is to bring you to a point where the love of God becomes chief commerce to in your heart. And if that is not a. Chief, everything you are doing in time will be a wist. Everything you look out for maybe a wist. Every good in Jesus. You died again, so you should know that Jesus is interested. Is more interested in you than you're healing, even though he paid the price for your healing. Is more interested in your soul. Everybody even wants Jesus raised from the dead. They died again. But what will make you eternally? Then? Am? He invested all his life in his twelfth disciples and those that followed him. Those ones live with him forever. He said, he will sit with him, want twelfth truths to join the twelfth trive of his wam. So he met the said who is seek? He spent one second with that person. He goes away, but they disciple that it's not healing. He spent three years with him. At the end of the day, that disciple becomes the lever. But the guide that was here is lost. You don't hear about him anymore. Why do you think spirits behave the way they do it? Levers? This morning? The first question is that do you really love the Lord as submitted? Look, when you come to church and you do all you do, is Jesus truly your motivation? When you hear the word of God? Is it Jesus You are looking for me. Now adaysciple becomes so careful. You are preaching the gospel. People are happy because of the way you are talking, and then you hear people trying to score what you say. So I became scared. I went back to the Lord and I'm like, what is this? I was in ministry into the trilligion, and I told them please say after me. I don't want patterns. I don't want that I mention it. I don't want potters, I don't want I want to hear God. So nowadays, if you come to a place where they have your they've had your basine before. You having careful because you meet tap rich and people are clappy. You think they are stared. It's what you are saying that it's impressing them. They will need they meeting now transformation. So nowadays I come to ask with questions because if you go home, you will remember the question. What debates your action in the house of God and outside of the House of God? Do you know why people are different in church? Do you know why people sustain a disposition in church that is different from their disposition out there? They want to create a pressure there they are true state, it's where you meet them in the market, where you meet them on the campus, that's who they are. But when they come to church, all of us want to create a pressure that we know God. But if the love of God, it says, tablishing your heart, even when no body sees you, you will leave. Because you have the relationship. You will leave because you know him. You will leave because he is one with him. That's the call of the Father. What is it that motivates your actions in the church. It is a beautiful thing that we've come and we stayed away good night. You will think God, it is so impressed because we are awakened when God comes there to carry out the census. What did we be checking this our heart? He said, somewhere looked at the wa and he was excellent in all his look, and he said, no, it is the destiny of man to look at the outwards. That's why we come and we want to impress person because we know it is the destiny of man to look at the altwhole and. Say what I look at the heart. If you know that they want before, whom you have to do is not seeing your look and the excellence of your demonstration. What is looking at your heart? You're missing. With change, your gesticulation will change, your disposition will change, because before that one looks at your outwork, he will look at your heart. A man showed up in the natural. He was without blemish, but his heart was not fit. And another man the Bible said, he was rooted. He was in the pathside of the desert, but his heart was accurate, and course. It go and annoyted. What is it that motivates you? You may have the best voice in the choir, but is not your voice to hear heaven. The one that is voice pierces to theto sion is the one that sits within your heart. That's the one that his voice is echoed in letality. You may be singing on every the best voice, and you think because people are emotion a bees, they are crying, they are calling, you think, oh, you are doing something. But you will be shocked that when it spill, it pays attention. They echo is heary? Your own is not part of it? Because he's hearing you, not through your cou He's hearing you through your heart. Your vocabularist in the spirit come through your heart, not through your mouth. But many are not aware. That's why we come to talk. We do the things we do. That's why we come to chug. It's all are the impressing people. It's all. Everything we do is craved in the natural health and the princess in darkness. They are aware. So the devil will give you many easy Why you should duel your life around yourself, so that self becomes the second friends of your reality. What men who want the standhouse the spirit of God walks. They need flesh. They live self, and they turney into the room of the spirit. They ask God, Lord, what will you have me to You can come for a meeting and God say sing, and you sing a google because you are first of all connected to Him before you are connected to the people. You can come for a meeting. You have a message. Why you are the ortar On the ort Jesus tells you to change the message and to say what. He wants to say. Meanwhile, this message is a message that every time you will preach it everywhere as catack. But today Jesus said change it. You can come for a meeting. You want to sit in front, across your legs because you dress well. Jesus tells you sit at the back. That is not doctrine. It is in see missing. It is love, it is relationship. You can come to a place you carry the microphone to leave the song. You were the one that practiced. But Jesus tess your heart. It is not right. And then you we humbly hand that microphone to somebody else because you are all interested in preserving your relationship with Him. That would create a show before men. And that day, even though you have the best voice, you will give the mikey away. You will be shocked that you're worship in keeping that mikey away. Will be loveder than the whole corps of the choir, because a spirit have seen that you are interested in Him, not in things. This and the teams men don't know. When I realize that it is God that makes men, I decided to travel in the direction of God. You will do a lot of things. You will dig your charisman. We open doors for you. You will think you are anointed. We open doors for you. You don't know this meaning, dam money, you leave this realm, you will be the most anointed. What it is the guy that you despise that God will a light upon. That's why men fight men. That's why men have envy and jealousy. You are the fellowship you talk, You are the one who is more, more special. And then God comes and annoying the least expected, and then you can't believe it. Why Why with God annoying than the word? Does he have that I don't have? You don't know spirits, You only know men. If you know spidity, we change your disposition. What does sounds I have that is always about her? No, it's not what she has. It's a heart. Because every time that spirit comes with influence, he drops it on the health of those who are perfect for him. You will carry your carriageman, and you will remain in one to be poorty. One day you wake up God be gray hair, and then you will become an elder year. But the guy that you think has no future in God, that's the one that God will announced to the whole nations. And that man can only sing a song. God, we sit on that sound in a britty, short massaic. God, we sit on the massy. People will hear it and they will say, who is this? It is a spirit? Let work what it begins with the hat that is perfect for the Lord. You may look at yourself and say I'm not moualified. God can't use me. You now sit down. You see sister Mary every time she carries the microphone everywhere shaking. You do not say, but I can never be like sister Mary. It is not men that God used to George. The Bible said they that compared themselves with themselves. Are not wise. Why God, who used to this? Because of your heart? There were many orators in Israel. It was Moses the start, and that God came from many orators. Many grew up as this ret like they knew the ways of Israel. Moses, who grew in the Palace of Pheroh, was the one God came from first of them. The Bible said he was cool and skilled in all of the ways of Egypt. So Mosses was an Egyptian by training, But that was the one God came from. How about the guy who was of the lived by Famili, who was skilled in Krypto. Why would God give all of them and come from Moses. God need a demand to speak for him. Why would you come for an auditor? Because God sees the heart of them were easy. Nobody had body for Israel. Only Moses had party all of them were crying for deliverance. Nobody had body, only Moses. So God checked this out and pay for you. What is the quality of heart for us? I'm telling you this because most of you are young. Listen, you are ten many meetings. They are very important, but we will not make you. You will meet many annointedment of God. They will lay hands on you. They are very important because those things they drop on you, they are seeds, and yours made it. When God begins to raise you, those seeds will come my life. What those things they look can not make you. Your journey into prosperity in the things of God begins when your heart becomes Rightety a man whose heart is corrupt, even God can't help you. That's why God do not help to us. The heart was already destroyed and compromised. Even Jesus could not help you. The same error that you that's committed was the same eraor that A committed. All of them betray Jesus. What one has the right hat, another one hading wrong hat. If your heart is wrong, we are lost. Every time we want to work with God, want to journey the way of this vidity. Before we pursure o the things we first before. Walk on our heart. You will call upon the Lord every day and tell the Lord I am canous, I am pursue you because I want your anointing, and pursue you because I want faith, and pursue you because I want influence. I don't love you. Help my heart. A moment God begins to have the heart of a man. That man is preparing himself for greatness, the men that God sends us for greatness, and the men that their hearts are right towards him, Paul said. He said, if a man does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, he is an attend mamma at. His condition is that it should be kept waiting for God, because every week I want to stand his head. What if the quality of your heart, there are many things that you can do in this kingdom. There are many potentials you have, Especially for some of us who are gifted. Our case is worse because it will be difficult for us to slow down. A man who can talk, he doesn't need God to help him when he comes to preach. He knows what to say. He understands froman's psychology. As I am now, I know what I will begin to say the next five minutes, and this whole we come around. Now, I know what to say in the next five minutes, maybe a few here we begin to cry. I know what to say in the next five minutes, and this place we begin to boil. The power of God will come here. That's the greatest That's the greatest on doing of a man who is charismatic, a man who is gifted is that he can easily delight on his gift. What God, it is difficult for that man to act God, What will you have me to The only day that man is you there to. God is the day he's disadvantage. The day he tries to shake himself as an other time and he doesn't work. That's when he will cry. Did you read about something? Did you ever read that stands in God on the name of the Lord? He never did of his head was cut off. It is the day his gift is lost that you waver's God. Every man who is gifted finds him difficult to me and to rely on God unless God helps his heart. Everye times sathing has a talent. The Bible said he shook himself, and then the head turns and he begins to do what he wants to do. He never consulted with God until the day his eyes were plunged down. That's when Sasing realized that his health comes from the Lord. Never be at that position. You must always put your hat and allow God to sensor your hat when you come to pray for ten hours. Instead of you to pray and God to tell people that I pray for ten hours, use that period as the period of the hat check. Tell the Lord to check your hat. Tell the Lord to try your range. The Bible said, the Lord test the hat inside the real to give to every man. That's his way should be. Tell the Lord to sense a your heart. Some of us are cannot. We are not aware your heart. What is the quality of your heart's God? Many first, I've lost our. Love for God. The reason we come for meeting and we wait, it is because we are trusting God that by all me the man of God. We pray for the sick, and we heard that every time he prays, the sick are healed, and the moment we are healed, we go back for our world. We will not be relevant like that for too long. Many of us. The reason we pray and first is because we are looking for an anointing. And anointing we. Not make you relevant with God. It is your heart that will make you relevant. What is the unity of your heart? What's God? What is the condition of your heart? What's God? Have you checked it in recent times? Have you checked the things you think about? Have you checked your motivation some of the things you do? If you sat down to check your heart, you'll. We wonder is it me that did this? I have done many weekend think and when God will put my eyes to see, I broke down you. We think you are special, you think you are good, and think God will post your eyes. Isaiah was a prophet on it. Everybody healed him. It was a national prophet until the day heaven. And when he had cared before God, he said, move onto him. This is a man that prophesied initials. But the momentary I cared before God, the first prophecy he gave to himself was damination. He said, woe unto me and the man of clean lives. He never knew the condition of his heart. His gift had been clouded the senses. He thought it was all about prophets, prophet, But when God appeared before him, he saw for the first. Time that his heart was given, and his mouth was crowded. On earth he was a prophet, but in heaven he was a lion. In heaven he was a man condemned. What is the quality of your heart? Don't wait until you go to ethanity before you now realize that helpy do you do? Your heart condemned it. Every time you gave up money and you satify so lod, your heart condemned your giving given where you were killed for Jesus and you thought you will receive the crown of life. Your heart condemned it. None of your sacrifice count because your heart is wrong. All those times when you came to dry you trecked under the rain you came and washing God, all the rehabs, all the vigits. You now go to heaven and discover it CAUs he whizzed because your hat, destroying everything you did for God. No, wait to heaven, one, wait until you get to help into discover. While you're on earth, the bad will say, if you check your hat, ask the Lord to try your hat. Ask the Lord to test your hat and to reved to you because you want to love him for who he is. Jesus went to heaven. And when he came back, he got out to disciples, and he caught the time he's in loves down me more than this. I thought it was about leadership skill. I thought that was about chartisma. I thought it was about ordinations. Came to be down. He zeroeded. He said, loveless, doubt me more than this. What will make you lead the body? It's not because you are there by ordination? What will make you lead the body. It's not because you are the wisest. What will make you lead the body? It's not because you are special. It is because the love, my love is en engraved in your heart. He said, Love, lest tell me. He asked him three times. The baby said. Peter was grieved. And Peter said, to Lord, and it also on the basis of Bitter's love that you. Say, keep my sheep, Keep my sheep, Keep my sheep. A man who has no love for God has no assigning for God. Everything you are doing is your self. Desist tonight. The first question is what is the love of God in your heart. I didn't come here to display to you the things I can't do. I came here to invite you into something that God wants you to be a part of You may look as if you're not relevant. You may be a camera. You may be a man who is a lord in age. You may be a man who has no goody to help you. You have no exposure. All of that thing is nothing they split that relates with you. Your futchange. But what will may beat you is the quality of your heart. If your heart can be set a light, your age will not count, Your defirmities will not count, Your inabilities wy not count, if only your heart is right before God. We are a generation that has a wrong heart, a good a wrong intention. The question to Night is do you really love Jesus? It is simple and basic, but that is what we determine how far we go in this kid. Do you love Jesus? I know you see a lot of things about God. I know they call you a prophet. I know they call you a samist. I know they call you a meanstream. But the question to Night is do you love Jesus? Do you love Jesus? I know you can give all your money, you have emptied your bank account before, but do you love Jesus? I know you have traveled to the forest before to do evangelism but the question is that do you love Jesus. If you don't love Jesus, everything is at best. It's a simple started as Blain a start, we begin for the poss of laws. H oh yeah ah ah oh yeah ah. Ah. I was born at Rio. While I was on campus, m HM need someone, some of us to talk on our Luther platforms. We had powers on our tone. We to turn the minds of people around. I didn't know that they devil have used it to invest doutness into my soul. I didn't know that my auditorial power was given to me to communicate the counsel of God. I thought I was being famous and popular on CAMPUSS. I never knew that my destiny was to communicate Jesus to my world darkness entirety. He took God many years of breaking, crossing, and dealing, and he's still working on that hat because it's the extend with God works on your heart that it will take you out. A man whose heart is not refined has no place in sire. A man whose hat it is not perfect before the Lord has no place in the kingdom. Because when the Spirit comes to judge you, he begins with the. Texture of your heart. Do you love Jesus? It's a simple question this morning, but many cannot answer it all their life. Even when they get to etality, you'll be confounded. You don't love him. Many workers of miracles today don't love Jesus. You think they love God, Wait, don't thank God their influence. That's when they begin to build the institutional and systems. It's no longer about God. Even the people around there. They are things they use to achieve their purpose. A man can give his life for another man's visual and then it comes back careless and act a single man. It's going water. I saw friends, my friends that are carrying blocks on their head to view torches. But when the pascars were made, those guys were naughty because the men never cared about them. They were all purposed that they were using to build their ficial They don't care about them because the love of God is not here. If the love of God is not here, and man would be a too. Money would be a two for achieving your personal interest, And when God comes, your whole work will be lost. No matter how you french that you are among men you love, be rendeman amount spirits. I don't desire to be famous. I don't desire to be popular among men. I desire to be popular the lem of God. When I come to heaven, let them mothers turn and say a noble song. I've come back with. Those were the things that that is informed the pursuit of men like Paul. He said, I have run my risk, I have finished my cop There we ha be a crown of glory. As far as Paul, what's gonna sign. Whether you pla for he doesn't mean anything. Whether you inserted it doesn't mean anything. Whether you giving money doesn't mean anything. It's focused. What's insire for sat a man? Men don't impress them. I'm not moved because you crack. I'm not moved because you sang a song in my name. I'm not moved because you insulted me. I've come to realize that men only relevant in sire on edge, everything is in life time itself. We vanish your look, We vanished everything that you invested for time, we vanish away. If you are thirty years old, you have been educated enough. When you were young, you look handsome, you look beautiful. Now that you are green old, that you are becoming another creature because not in time has an panaf dish. It is only Zion that the foundation of the life of men is filled. But for you to be relevand in sion the hat, the hat? Do you love Jesus? Do you love Jesus? We are gonna pray again, but this time around the focus of our prayer is not to vibrate this beauty, is to vibrate our hearts so that they chance and they can't be before off, so that the temples that they never was planted. With full of for you to be relevant. Something was happening to your heart. Something Gods have to do it surgery in your heart. You want to bry now, rise after your feeth, Holyda, I'll pray for the sake. When we are done praying and God, we hear a lot of people. But this morning, just in case, you have checked your heart and you know there is a work that God needs to blue. You are not posted. I'm not doubting it. Nobody is doubting your God. You are gifted. Nobody is doubting the genuiness of your gift. But what the quality of your heart? This morning? You want a lot to help your heart. You know there's a challeee. There's a challenge. You can't tell it to a friend. This is not necessary that I see that. But there's something wrong. Every time you give money, is what? Something is wrong? Every time you did something, something's wrong. It's never about Jesus. You don't know why you can't love. I want to prove it you. Before we begin to pray. I just feel let's do this matter quickly. I'll say. You can't give your body to be gone? Is it? But if you have not law, it's a waste. Is it possible that all your sacrifices. In the kingdom are wanting now it's a waste because of your hat. Is it possible that all you're preaching is a waste? That you will be don't preaching to the sin and what You'll be a castaway because of your hat. Is it possible that's why you're giving some of you have given your schoolfies a see. Is it possible that that would be a waste because of your hat. I want to give you an opportunity one more time. You don't know your hat your heart, your heart? The marble said, the hat of man is desperate. At the weekend, you want God to help your heart come up quickly. M If I have the complex, you may go back and here the message again and again. You understand when the way of mysteries, it may inspire you. But if they not understand me I, then it play. Because God leads the people that he can work with you in people that he can use, not to use step, but so that they can have len The man Syxiel the Bible said, he has not called the seal of Jacob in vain. What is possible for you to be called in pay? If your heart is not like you can become like the Spanish. Your check your heart again. For those of you who are in front, you can begin to talk to the Lord. You ask him to help your heart. Ask the Lord to help your heart. You'll be a massed and that might be the boosting. But that prayer you will pray this year, thank God shall help your heart if you travel with you into eternity
