Esther Generation

In the precious name of Jesus. You may be cited. God bless you. According to our design has mort us. We were created with infamilies, and God deliberately created us the way he did so that we will continually depend on him. The Bible said, it's not giving to man that walk to that he steps. The best of us is a sheep prey in the hand of the devil. The best of us. The only advantage we have is the deposit of God on our inside. It's DeVore in purity for us to labor continually to draw from what we carry on our. Inside flesh itself. It's called mortality, and the word mortality means corruption. We are mortal men. It is the addition of God to us that makes us the God kind. Every time we journey in. Depature from God, we are joining back to mortality. We are joining back to our fraility. We are joining back to our weaknesses. The advantage we have in time is our fraternity with the Holy Spirit. It's not given to man that walk it to other hisselves. So we saw in the first service. The kind of people that have this stature, these statues, and the capacity to be a weakness for God in this world of corruption. We saw that the only way God can be seen and manifested through us is when we become the recipients of fire. And we said, fire is not youthful zeal. Youthful zeal is a reality that runs on the economy of the flesh. It's an ability that we have because of our youthfulness. Beautiful as it. Is, it cannot meet the demands of Heaven. That is why God is not moved, whether you are young or old, because everyone that was saving was serving on the strength of this supply. Of the spirit. Is that, having received a kingdom that cannot be moved Hebrews twelve twenty eight. Is they let us serve God with reverence and godly fear. For our God is say consuming fire. Let us receive grace to save God. That means God is. Not move whether you are young nor you are old. It is the grace that you are appropriate that determines the quality of your service. And we said this morning that the reflection of the fact that we have made contact with God is the. Fire of God that burns on our inside. So we said in the last day, the Bible said the. Witnesses of God shall be flames of fire the world ministers. In that scripture, he proves wandless man is. The word public savants. He may at the angel spirits, but is public savants. He makes them a flame of fire. That means you cannot carry God to the public ext you are cluded with fire. Remember, we are not called to manifest God in the torre. We come to thee to receive strength, equipping so that we can go out there. He sent the church to the world. He said, go into all the words and make disciples of every nation. The word world using that's the choice the world aon. Go to your own fair of influence and make disciples of all nations. So when we come to church, we come. To receive fire and take to our world. The fire is not necessarily manifested in church. The nothing we do. What we do is because we don't carry genuine fire. So we come. Among people that are religious like us, So we make a show. Have you not noticed that every time people fall is in the church. How many people are interacted with the market that went under the power. Meanwhile, they came with knife and cons to arrest Jesus. He said, say Jesus of Nazare He said I am. Here, and the people went back and felled. You have power when the terrorist sees and goes down. This was the kind of dimension that men like Actishop Benzeneta husa manifesto as petriars of the calling of God in Africa, that we will look upon them. These guys went into shrines and they carried Jesus there. Myself and a friend engaged his sister. Last week she was in Abuja. A witch struck her in Abuja and she had to relocate to Katuna and five castors that wanted to deliver her traveled from a Buja to Katuna and they were there for one month. The witch did not need to travel from Katuna to Abuja. He knew what to do to afflict the lady. Got men of God travel from a Buja to Katuna to meet. Them, and for one month there are this struggling because we don't have the tangibility of what we profess. God is not moved because we are speaking boodly about him. You must be able to communicate his reality. So we said, fire is not screaming loud. Fire is first of all, walking in pleasing holiness. Because your life has been seeded to God as a sacrifice. We say fire is an insatiable appetite for God because we are hungry for Him and his presence. We said, fire is a jealousy. For God and his kingdom. I am very jealoused for the Lord, God of hosts. We said fire is fruitfulness living a life that lips harvest for the kingdom. And we said fire. He said, don't get believing God that makes you risk your life and don't care because you look that your God is able to deliver you. And even if he doesn't, you will not bow to the statuscope of your word. You will be both to stand even if you are the only one standing. You are not doing what you're doing because a cloud is doing it. You are doing what you are doing because if you are the only one, you will still doing. Jesus began ministers one man, and he went out as a burning fire. People joined themselves to him, and. When all of them ran. Away from him, he still continued with his witness. His motivation is not the cloud. There's something he carried on his inside. Started out as a single individual, they followed him. When persecution came, they all ran away. He was still the way he was. People are not his motivation. There was something at work on the same side they knew in fire. I want to show us one way of making contact with the fire of God, and then I will show us four other ways of keeping the fire. Because most of us once and. Again I caught the fire of God. Most of us we look back. I remember ten years ago. When God then counted me when I was on fire. In Jeorge, chapter twenty nine, in two Job said he looked back, and he remembered when he knew the Lord. And he said, where. God was upon my Tobancaco. It say, went by light, I walked through darkness. When I met before, He said, by life. Strong to afflick, for nothing was strong enough to quench his motivation. He did not this darkness. He could fight iniquity with this world. When we are in sire, we we look like. The bonny wants in heaven. When John showed up in heaven, the angels knew him like one of them. John wanted to knew. Down in Revelation nineteen ten to watching one of them, he said, no, I am like onto you. I'm one of your brethren that. Y'all d next more difference on earth. You still carry the dimension that the Holy wars in heaven carried, because what. Was legion in you. Is as as the christas of heaven. Man walking on earth like entities of Sium, because they were bonnying. Jesus the Bible said, while he was walking in Galiday, he said. The son of Man, which is in heaven, when to heaven or aged. The dimension is constant. He carried the disciples. To pray in Matthew seventeen West two, and Elijah and Moses came from Sium, and it stood among them born with flames. So you don't need to go to heaven to beat like God. There were men that walked on earth like immortal entities among the mankind because they're born with the flames of the godly one. How do you clutch the fire of God? I told us you can't set yourself on fire. That's why you must give everything you have to preserve it if it is lost. Most of us. Here, once upon a time we could stand on our feet and pray from ninety money. And it looks as if sleep it is no longer part of our existence. But something happens, and then we want to play the night fifteen minutes we already doing. Something has gone wrong. Some of us we could come to church every day of the week. We were leading the evangelism squad. But a point came when if they made. The announcement the Lord, we get offended. Some of course, we're at. A point where we could give everything we have if the same gig we. Are the first. But now we come to a point where if there's much as make and as friend, we get to fend them. Something has gone wrong. There's a denation on the inside. What you need is. Restoration of factory setting and what God. Uses to activate this fire? He said in malar character trives to that the Lord. We are here in his sanctuary, and we call gods the songs of Libor, so that they can bring an offering acceptable before the Lord. Do we catch the fire of God is by encounters. We encounter a people can live they set on fire. We be labor in utility. The Bible said, the labor of the Polish weediate every one of them, because they know not. How to render the city. I started the life of the prophets of gold, and I saw that this man could give up every thing to keep me till with the Lord. You will see some of them depart, go to living caves. They were with. God has spoken, and every time they show up you hear them say. And the word of the Lord came to me. And the word of the Lord came to me. The reason they were invincible is. Because they understood the importance of encounter the Son. Here they will make you one of the president presidents over all the princes in the realm. And Daniel said, look, make sure Dignissia can apadne of me. I will see adlicate. He saw something that was more precious to him than everything in life had to offer. He needed to see his face every morning. He said, as we you ing, as we beholding, we are changingished. Every man on fire is not on the street is because they understand the secrets. People don't burn because they are zealous. And the energy for spiritual reality is not in the pless Most times when we shake ourselves, it's at t we're exhausting. Where you shake yourself. For thirty minutes and the energy from garris over you will discover that you'll hear your knee you will sit down. Meanwhile, a man of fire is praying after two hours is adding here after four hours, he's ascending. After seven hours, it's still roared. You will know that what is at work in this messine is not captured within the frame of mortality. He is drawing strength from somewhere that is far from the borders of human to aling. The men of hold unders two the place of encounter. So they live their. Lives perpetuality pursuing encounter. There are from major kinds of encounter that bring fire. The first type of. Encounter that brings. Fire is encounter with God. Out of fish land from Egypt. And he was in the wilderness for forty years. Be the shepherd carry sheeps around. This is a deliverer. But when Pharaoh leaved, the fear. Of Pharaoh drove him. Away from Egypt. The guy for God his primary assignment. This was saying he knows coun etyptians to bring the reverance to Israel. Something happened. Pharaoh threatened him, and. Every iota of confidence that was born in the place vurished. That is the disadvantage of flesh. Anything superior to you will quench you. But if you draw from heaven, even the mightiest of men cannot withstand you. He said, who is this mountain that stands before the ruber bear, not by power, not by minight, by this spirit. So it is by the spit when mountain becomes the move, he said. When Israe went out of Egypt, he said was his sanctuary. He said, the mountains fled, the skipped like. Lambs before him. They were coming, and the flame of fire was moving ahead of them. The mountains skipped, skipped before them, he said, and went backward. They came by fire, he said. The pillar of fire went up to them in the in the night, and the pillar of cloud in. The day, to show them the way that they should go. Their did their compact is too busy, because. You are spent him from your flesh. So nat already we compare your strength with what you are seeing, and you reason the head. But if you draw strength from Zion, when that thing comes, something lived from your inside. Where they put to the story, how that he came back and saw stepped from the mission view, and here was his wife, satisfied by causing doctor that you already had miscarriage glittered. What is there is? If you don't evacuate her, there will be crisis. So this is not a place where you talk budly. Bishop said, it cannot happen. Let me have my food, and the matter was never discussed. Your wife will die. She has bread. There's bread in the in the in the womb. If is not evacuated crisis, it cannot happen. That is not goodness, that is an economy in this spirit. And for that dimension to be quickened. On your inside, you must encounter him that els in the spirit. This is why Christianity begins in the spirit, not in the bless If. You have not seen Him, you cannot withstand dead. The Bible said, the Moses came to withstand Pharaoh was because he saw him that was invisible. First, you must encounter God for yourself. Docr t lostborn that showed the world for Christ. He said, they have four encounters. One of them was with the Lord. Exactly changes a coward becomes a veteran. They say their pursus. The Bible said in Acts of the Apostles four twenty three, after they threatened them, they came and spoke with goodness. And he said, they took looks that these. Men were with the Lord. See that they were all learned. Men from top. Like this, these men have seen something and they carried that fire OUTI all of them were killed. They never said no, they didn't even contemplete it. What was happening. There was a rage they saw the Lord. Many were preachers in that generation. Another man showed up on his way to Damascus, and he saw fire from heaven. So so why persecutors tell me? And they told He said, oh are you Lord? He said, I am Jesus Christ. HM that prosecutor, rise up and go into the city. You'll be told what you must. Do from that day. From that day a man that was fighting the church tont to become a vibrant apostle. He had an encounter. What do we change your life and turn you around? Ly? Is an encounter with the Lord. Most communities like to God on the he sees the reality of God in his spirit. When you see men doing exploit, it's not a function of intelligence. There are many people that thinks ministry is collection. Some traveling with money, they spend it. You see people gather here. You think it's about studying the Bible. Is when you start a church that your. Arrogance will come down. You know, I say, old man, I was so arod. I collided with many rocks. I see people doing things and I'm like, ah. I can do better than this. Do better. I started, they said, And for eight months we were three and these three people and we have to call them that day. I make them free happy. I need to make them be happy so that in the evening they can come. If I try to read them, they well be so offended. You have to read them even on Sunday. You will need to call. Them before they come to church. And now realized that the man of God was not doing what he was doing because he read the Bible. I felt there is something happening. I had to go back and ask God for a message. You know, when you are head responsible in the kingdom, you can afford to be out of that when God gives you a responsibility. You see, they need for encounter. Me. When God saw Mosses and he said go back to Pharaoh. Pharaoh, that was when he knew the significance of encounter. But if he had no seen the Lord. If he had not seen the Lord, there wouldn't have been deliverance through his life. God would have raised deliverance through other means, but it would not have been Most fire begins with an encounter with the Lord Exadosta the three vers one to five. Saint Moses carried the ship of his father in law Jay, and he went to the backside of the desert, even on to hurry. And there he saw a push pony that was not consumed fire did Moses remained on fire? He kept seeing the Lord in everdost nineteen verse twenty four Exdust twenty four versts too ex Twenty four Best to us he the Dostery fours to come up hither The man kept beholding. Be so wonderful. Who say, even if you are drunk, the wine you drunk last week is not enough. It tossicate you today. You must keep drinking to be drunk. So you don't meet God and run away and say it's over. You must keep tricky to be drunk. Ez was among the captain Ezcare chapter one, verse one to five. He said, I was there among the captain by the river Kaba. He was a prisoner until he saw something. He said, I saw visions of God. I saw visions. Instantly the man became a prophet. In chapter two, verse one, it's yes I saw him. I fell like a dead man. But as he spoke he's more. Then turning to me and carried me to my bill. That day he rose off not as a captain, he rose up as the prophet. Your informities are not important. There's something you need to see if you are looking for me, because you're not seeing something. There are things you see that make you go mad. The disciples said, we cannot but speak of the things we have seen and heard. We cannot That's why they were on fire. Do you know the people that were confronting in those days? The san hendry have their right to make a mess of you. They can expel you from the synagogue. Meanwhile, the civilization of Israel is around the synagogue. If we are expelled from the synagogue, you are not the citizen. Then the san hendry have the power to expel you. Did you not read John chapter nine When Jesus healed the man bone blind, and they called the parents, he said they were afraid of talking because they didn't want to be expelled. The man stood before the san hendrin and said, we can not. But speak of the things you have seen and heard. You see a man born in fearlessly for God. He has seen something. He has seen something you have not seen anything, you will be fearful. He has seen something. Encounter is the key for fire. The precursor spirit was hire is encounter with the Lord. The second encounter in myself is an encounter with his world. Samya a toddler in the temple, oppressed and figeted by the sons of Ali. Because the songs of Ali were sons. Of Bailia, the leading iniquity. They desecrated the temple of the Lord, and they are past of God. Samuel was a young little boy along them. How would this man ever walk in righteousness, in holiness and impurity. There was no way his destiny could ever find expression. This is a nas right that the mother had committed to the Lord. But he had come into a civilization that is bound and encased in liberty. These guys were rockled that the Bible said, when the sacrifices were made, the prince is supposed to dip the folk into it. Whatever courages this is possi, they will come and collect it from you. They have no fear for God. It was the iniquity that brought about the reality of ecble inscription. This is where Samuel found himself as a teenager. How with this boy rise without corruption he needed and encoun down. And in first summer of the rivers, which you want, the Bible said, the. Lord appeared again in Shiloh. The Lord lived himself to sayere in Shilhu die the world of the Lord. So Samya grew up in Hades. But he was a righteous man, a tea in his old age. Some year we speak before the well that I served the Lord as a child. Now I'm gray headed. Let one of you say that I took his ass. There was no accusation against him. How is it possible? He had an encounter with the word of God. In looked twenty four and started to the men that were going to Emmaus. As Jesus spoke to. Them that Jesus left, they told. Themselves, did our hearts not born? Did our hearts not born? While he speak, When the word. Of God comes alive, you are quickened on the inside. That's why Jesus said, man shall not live by bread a lure, but by every word that proceeded from the mouth of God. The world we speak about is not the logos, is the light of the world of God. They read the nation of the war. They revealed word of God. That's the food of the human spirit. The reason is because we were created by the world, so you believe by the world. It's an operasion in the spirit. You see, this thing is a bit difficult to explain because do you see a photocopying machine. Why you put a blank paper and the light passes through. Everything that was in the paper in the machine is duplicated upon the blank paper. That's how knowledge is communicated in the spirit. Knowledge is communicated in the spirit as light. So when the word of God is quicking or your inside, God is. Deposited there, so you we do business with the world of God on he comes alive. That's why Jeremiah Jeremina fifteen sixteen. They say I did find the war. I was reading the Torah for many years, but. The point came when I found the war, and he said, the world of God became the joy and the rejoicing of my heart. So that guy could be thrown into a ware and he's singing in a where that guy could be cast into the wilderness, and the wilderness to him is the palace. Because he's no longer conscious or motor man. There is something walking on this inside. It's called the songs of souls men who are fire for God. You see it playing on your inside every morning. Sometimes you wake up around to amy the night. You want to go and easy yourself. Why do you are yet going to the bathroom? There you are hearing everybody is God. E luia the robot. You are alive. So why you were sleeping? Your spirit man was alive because the spirit of man doesn't sleep. It was created in the image of God and him that keeper is ready. Neither sleep slop us. When a man is alive, the word God is working on this inside. It's an operating system. It's like a dynamo. When it's activated, everything comes alive and encounter with the world of God. If you have not had an encounter with the world of God, you cancel stain fire. In Lebidy cost chapter six, verse twelve, the Bible. Said the fire on the autumn must not be put out. Why he said, the priest must put wood on it every morning. You must eat it every day, my son, attend to my world probab fortuity. Let it don't depart from the heart. Keep them in the midst of the heart. The ah life to them that find them. The energy of God is quickened by its world. How much of the world of God is in your spirits? When you see a man dying, check the world of God is no longer no economy on the inside. There are not many parameters to look at. If you see a man living in seeing, check. The world of God is no longer alive. No wonder. The apostle says and ask after six Verst. Four, we will not give ourselves to tables, willunless this day temptation. We will constantly give ourselves to prayer and the world, and then encounter with the world is the key for lasting fire. You want the fire of God to stay alife. Listen. Most of the things we do operate on the prepars of our emotions. That's why you are excited in church. You go home. The next thing, they say house rent. Your joy diffuses. You are excited in church, you are jumping. You go home. The next thing, there's no food. You begin to rig, worry and scream. So it's inside. The life in the spirit begins from inside. You leave it from inside out. You can be happy about things around, but joys in the spirits. That's the difference between joy and happiness. Things can make you happy. But joy comes from within, and it is borne by the heart of the world. Encounter with word that's true, Judge after one best fortifi. The guy had lost hope in everything. These guys they waited for the messia untill they were tired. So they were doing their business June after one verse forty to forty two. And even when they told the Jigus are come. The missiles and anything good come out of Nazareth, the. Guy say come and see all right. He went reluctantly, and he showed up, and Jesus said, behold, and Israelites in whom its loughter, you know what the world does to you. The world does not speak to you by what your circumstances have made out of you. The world speaks to your reality. That's why the injury of the Lord will come to give you, and says, go in this day might which might? This is a guy that was hidding hit Tress him floor in the wine press because the Median Knizes came for their crops. So he carried his own crops and went to hide in the wine press so that they would see him. And then someone came from Sidon and said, go in this day mind, where is the might? The guy was picking to his reality. In sion, Natalia I was fired of. Jesus said, behold and lizbeli in whom miss Loca? And the guy said, how do you know him? He said, why you were under the pig tree before natalia I called you? I saw you, And he said, now are the Christ? Thou art the Messiah, the son of the Living Girl. You think you are there, You think you cannot pray? Wait, Untie a war this preaking. The dey Award is peaking. And Nativy come from the capsule of that world that was peaking. On your inside. There was a time when I was looking for monemy. I called my friends. Everybody was giving excuss what kind of thing is this? You know when you try everych it doesn't work, you'll come back to God. They prove that you are cronies. Are you start with God? They don't start with men? Why do I, babe, you start with teens. And as I began to meditate on the world of God and the world was quaking on my inside, he said, woe onto the man that put that his trust in the flesh, for the arm of flesh, I fail. I was like, Ah, have I put my confidence in flesh? He said, he shall be like the heath in the wilderness. He will not say good when it comet. That's places of the wilderness is like a partlas of the wilderness. That is not inhabitant. As I was like, what the next thing I had again, he said. His heart has departed from the Lord. I loved that it is the Lord hardless, Lord hardless, the world came my life again. But blessed is the man who's trust is the Lord. I chapter head. Immediately, I say, I don't need anybody. Before I finished the prayer, I received an alert and I got five times what I was asking for. When the world is quaking every flitting the base. WEATHERPO say, if God feeds everything, here's in everything, including your mountains, including your circumstances. He said that I'm dead. Shah come to life because they hear the voice of the Son of God and leave and counter with the world. He said, sustainer of spirit to a fire. That's why you look upon it every morning. He said. The priest was put food on eat every morning. The word of God is not what you do because you went for to said. And they said something that stad you. You wake up with it, you eat. It like bread. Mainly don't have a business with the war. That's why their life works with it. Today the on fire, tomorrow before next to worrow, the on fire, and they give us to you. What do I do to sustain fire men? The world of God? Your friend, the only God told me, I will make you an ambassador fire. But the word of God must be like, must be to you as a as driep to entire man. You eat this thing when we discuss subjects like this is good. To do it exagetically, see the way it is insteed. To take it like that, and you will see the change in your life. It will lack to the foundation of your belief system. There will be an altration in your paradigm because you've seen, you've seen. These things are in turner recommendations. It is the wisdom of God that profess this recommendation. Poll said to Tim of infestiboty fortirteen. He said, until I call it, give up tenders to reading, to exhortation and to doctrine. Let this thing not end in your life. He said, Then invese sixteen, you will save thy safe and themn die headed when the devil came to Jesus, how did Jesus withstand him? Efty the devil says, Jesus tricks the world. You don't know the scriptures Jesus was quoting. We're all familiar scriptures. It was quoting from Psalm ninety one, Exodus eight. Let us. Then he was the master of scriptures. The Bible said in Looked Chapter four and sixteen that he when he went into the sceneate, he picked the screw to read as his custom wars, that is the word of God, as his custom. I thought. The Bible said, the beginning was the world. The word was with God, and the world was God. We act the word of God every day. He did business with it. So there is no there's no there's no no, no weak moments with him. Every time there's a challenge, before you think the world jumps out, before you think the world jumps out, you know that you have become invincible. And counter with the war. The third encounter you have with the counter with the Holygos. His man wy with Jesus for three and a half years. He didn't tell them to jump. Out, because they have land principles. Most of us. Begin ministries begin businesses because we land principle. Did you not notice that somebody has fear water fact and he's a balloonium and your own fear water factory cannot exceed ten bags. There is his spirits that energized things on earth. Human vessels are channels through which spirits manifest themselves. If you don't have an encounter with the Spirit, your principle. Become a body. I told people that what we call principle is the life of spirit express to those that find them. You must have an encounter with the Holygos. Jesus was the world for thirty years, was renowned as a carpentin fo of the world. But what a carpenter. Because he needed an encounter with the Holy Spirit. And when he came from the amount of temptation, the Bible said the martial form fourteen, he. Returned in the power of the spirit. Thirty years. How God I annointed Jesus of Nazared with the Holy Ghost and with power, who went about doing good. He was not doing good because he was the son of God. He was doing good because he had healthy daily encounter with. The Holy Spirit. The deciphers wanted to jump out. They said tardy in Jerusalem. The terry you are going to, I know it. I saw satin fair like lightning from heaven. I know the princes that rule over territories, these lity you are living in. Any good in that prospers in God. I've broken through the canoty of darkness in this realm because. The Bible causing the God of this war. Every territory is distributed by principalities. If you succeed by God, it means you're broken through their influence. Every man succeeding for God. I've broken through the power of darkness. It is a warfare. That's why it was the restaurant against Lesson Blow. There are things that will supress you. They will force you to walk in in liperity. They will force the walks of your hand not to prosper. The only way you can slay them is if you are also indcorated by a spirit that is older than them, and only the Holy Gooes is older than they ate the entities that fell from heavy in Jerusalem look twenty four forty night, Auntie. You are endued with power, and the disciples they coward. The disciples hid themselves in the upper room Auntie, and encounter with the Holy goos came. Suddenly they opened the door and they went out. These men were afraid. Before the day crowd was gathered. It was they did the crowd gathered that they had encounter with the Holy Spirit. And they went out and they began to talk to everybody. They never cared who was listening. What do you do? What you are doing? You are drunk? And Peter stood up by the Holy you always said the babble said, gitter full of the Holygood stood them with a level, and he said, don't think that these. Men are drunk with wine, for it is just nine a m. In the morning. But this is that it was prokened by the propert Joe that in the last days, and we pull out my spreedy for offlesh your souls. And your doctor's been professor this thing. Know that scripture before, yes he did, but he needed an encounter with the Holy Spirit. When the encounter came, the resources of God was impattered. So the scripture he knew became bullets in his mouth. Many don't have any encounter with the Holy Spirit. It is not good enough to listen to a message and preach it. You were be in trouble. Every message you listened to should drive you to the presence of God. This thing is not intellect. It's not an intellectual business your it is involved in in the business boys beyond the Internet. It is born in the spirit. And many people will take it for granted. God forbid. But I have seen many Christians. They told them about the world. They took it for granted at they had problem. The day the person goes to the hospital and they say you have cancer, that's the day he wants to read the whole Bible. You are behind. Many people take it for granted because it. Doesn't sound Philosophrica where a generation that posue knowledge. If you talk come and you start to. Talk about the patterns of the health of the line that governed their health, then everybody, the personally, the young people. Sit on this world and eat it like bread. That is what we save you in the day of crisis. The Bible say, if you're find in the day of trouble your strength is literally not because God is not there. God will be there, you will think, because He has played this part by. Giving you his world. It is the business you do with the world. That determines how lasting your life will be on earth. As boring as these things may sound, these are the areas where the devil will fight you. The devil we always fight you. At the point of your interaction with the world. You can watch a movie for ten hours, carriage the Bible to read. You will find yourself sleeping after ten minutes, because movies part of the distraction that will make you not to forfee your destiny. But every time you look upon. The world of God, you want to travel with the direction of your destiny. He said, we should behold the world, which is the perfect law of liberty. You find who you are in Christ. Encounter with the spirit. God is photographed into your life, and everywhere you go you become a reflection of God. The last encounter among. The four that I'm giving you this morning is. Encounter with men of God. There are many men you meet your life. He's turned around. Most times. Arrogans will not let us accept it is a fact. God met Paul Acts of the Apostus nine two to four, and God thought, Paul. Go to the city. You will be told what you should do. I thought, if you met Jesus, is enough. Jesus directed Paul to meet a man, and he went to ananias. I thought, if I meet a Nod, I've come to the end of my journey. It is the Lord that directed in rejoin. I hard an encounter with with Jesus, and. After talking with Jesus for a long. Time, Jesus now told him to understand this encounter. If you want to meet Bob Jones, I've met you, the god of our flesh. You are now directing me to a man that is limited. What do you to me? Jesus said, to understand this encounter, go and meet Bob job And when rejoin, I came to meet Bob Joe. Bob Jos told him, from what I saw yesterday in the spirit, I know that Jesus visited the eight so you're coming at this. Time shows that you are the one Jesus killed. So there are men that were sitting in their room and know when Jesus came to the earth. And before Rejoina began. To speak, he said, the five things Jesus sold. You is the five fold ministry of God. You we activate men in the five food ministry. What you were not there when I saw Jesus. How did you know nanaas was not there when Jesus met Paul, but he came. He said, brother, Paul, brother saw he he Risau the God that you met. What those guys are Costodians? They are gate keepers? Do you know why we are? God? And counter? Paul was within the radar Bananas. So everything God does there he will tell a Nanaias because Annias is the gate keeper. There are men that if you enter or tackle, you will not prosper until you connect with them. If you like, say whatever I want to say, you will struggle for thirty years. Before wisdom speaks to you. That Jong we had. Jesus met for was Ananiasis region. Did you not read When God wanted to destroy Sodom, He came to meet Abraham, and Abraham was negotiating the destiny of Sodom and Gomura. Sordom was within his territory. God of Heaven cannot do anything in so he talks to Obraham. He said that will not do anything, and said that he did into what. I savants the prophets. They are the key paths of the integrity of God in the atrial. You must have then counter with. Them, because men are key paths of setting dimensions of God, God doesn't waste resources. When he told the story, he. Was in Philadelphia. Can that Copeland? That's Papa can act coupler, what's in Philadelphia? And he spoke against Benny Hill and he fell sick instantly. That's the fat out of faith in the world today. It will great faith tiants. Like Bishop Wedepu has submitted to canecoplain. In this world today. If you talk anything against Annecopland, your faith with crumble. You wish you know, we are a young kid. Where where are we? We have enough energy? Where you blow? Oh? Do we understand the systems of this kingdom? You will obey them. He can a compland spoke against Beny Hill, and he took here. He used everretty about faith that he knew it didn't work. And he went back to the Lord. I said why I might not be you? And they said, you taught my solm and benniehim what the same way you are the gate keeper of faith. Benihem is the gate keeper of health. They ain't es of healing in this world. They walk with Beniheim. If you touching, your health will be withdrawn. You received with your eyes. Benny Him received in petition from all the robots. Before the robots left this world, it was the custodian of the hellen anoyty. This man are systems God himself consult with them to do mattask and they watch over. I will not do anything on the consult my servant. The prophets can a cooplan had to drop his faith, confession, drop his sick so In dropped his meditation. He went to benny him and apologized, and instantly he was you most times the reason we can't go fights because we nuse our tongue against the laws. Annoyted some of those fathers who go on Facebook and you talk against you are joking. Somebody wrote something on Facebook about this shop. Read the pier that I began to pray to God to have message. I read a story about Reverend door Toma Pi. A young man spoke against him, and he said, what me, He's a die or tongue would be removed today? He didn't pray to God. The guy was going home. He had an accident. The glass of the car caught. Off his tongue. Did you not reader about Moses? One corra not another dear rebect against him? Moses went to God and said, have not respect onto their prayers. What are you talking about? And they pray to you so a man can take God. Not to listen to the prayer of another person. Yes, rankly in the. Spirit, start up in the spirit, ranking in the spirit. Not to respect onto their prayers. These guys came with their censors, and when they gave their instance, God, the gods fall and. Mosses came and told them, if you die in nor my death, I'm not the servant God. Moses prescribed the kind of depth that you die. He said, the ground does don't open his mouth to swallow you. Then notice salvant of God and God or not? The wars almost. God does not change most of us, young people for our destiny to speak with more. First of all, repent because we have used our tongue to fight. Men that kept the heritage of God. For a whole generation. You don't know those men went to get because you. Have a puppet and your region on Facebook, you talk against badness and counter with men. We must if we most the significant in this kingdom, Jesus can appear to you and refer you to a man. Jesus is that important. This is why countters are too important and we can never be without them. It is god strategy of Supine posing. Himself into a man. And you will have it again and again, again and again, either with the Lord h oh with what oh with is parit. All with men that carried those dimensions. I pursued men of God. I pursued them because I knew the limitations I had were many. There were many. I came from a disadvantage place, no party. My family have coken in talks. I was the first see how young I am her book. I led my family to Christ. Am I a person that can plead your God. The only look a govermn. I knew I needed to connect with men. I hear many him it's calling. I go and receive in petition. I hear evan PRIs as a concert. I go and receive a partition all the men you know in this country as major men. Is only debut with that, no you can do. I know the advantage of men. The Bible says some men they fight with the strength of many. The last iportation I received it was from when a bunque of breast memory, when he came passing on the tour. I slept on the crushete ground for three days. When that hour came, there was say old lady. Whether she was falling under the power, I don't know. She hit me on the front. I said, God for me. I came here. She came and hit me again. The lady he hit me five times. I said, the devil will not robbed me. This one was colleged. As I received that torch. Five months later, I sprang into the wall like a trumpet, screaming my name. We are products of many annointings. We are products of many encounters. As we receive, we take responsibility to funny to flee you. Simon would be nobody except as he met. For John Mark was being trained to be an appossum. He decided to withdraw. He thought he was annoyted. Many years later, when Paul invited John Mark, he said, he's good to be a Dickey. If you break your connection, and I can't with certain men, it will reduce the quantity of your life. The guest of men today are still connected to other men is a mystery. The Bible said, behold our beautiful and pleasantities. For brethren to dwell together in harmony is like the drew of heaven. Someone that strippers want to treat. It's like the oint men that flow from the head of error through is dear. Down to his scape. The Lord commanded is blessings. There are men you don't talk. You cannot enter certain dimensions. Argue if you will labor for a long time, Posse say, I long to see you that I may impact onto you some spiritual blessings, that in the end you will be established. Don't they have the Holy Spirit? I long to see you that I may impat onto you spirit. War blesses that in the end you'll be established. There are months where I need them only playing for men of God, because that's the only way I can touch what they carry. Of course, see you have labeled with me. Now you have become part. Take cares of my this man. Don't they have the Holy Spirit? Don't they have the grace of God? Argue it you will live on the every young person behind you, the people you taught in Bible school, they. Will become pastors of the church you will attend. Then you will know that there are things that makes for greatness in this kingdom. Arrogans don't take us anywhere. Encounter is the precoursal split to a fire. Don't go looking for an angel. Don't go looking for a light in the spirit. You may not encounter God, but you may encounter him to his world. You may encounter him to his spirit, and you may encounter him through men. Always with a humble look out for where God is. Breaking out from all night. There are many today are they are clawed with jealousy. You are with your friend. God decided to put his hand on him at what is upon his life for you to walk in it. You can brag and say, come on, is in a victor? What what is about victim? You will leave both for a long time. You may go and start. Doing the same thing victory is doing. You are a joker. You want the man. You do it. The little you have to say if you be wasted because. The man God puts his handle is the politics of heaven. The counsel of the God sad, and they said, poor with bear this assignment. It is not open to backain. You want to work in it. Here partake of his grace. Then you partake of it. The poet is doing you will die because he. Has the backing of heaven. There are things we do that changes our story you can meet. A man and your story is changed forever, and he mustn't it will be. A man of God. Be wise. Stories have been told how our little dangle take connected with Besily the horse in a. Play and his story turned around. I heard the story how Bishop tdy JS a god had this message and say what fly this person here now? And they brought tiddy jacks and he said, I'm putting. You on TDN. From that day his life changed. He was pretty lemma. But only ten people with this videage when listening. You're under my man, you are gone. You are gone some of us. The reason we live old is not because. We are anointed. It's because you swaw an old humor and you anor her. And he said, my son live forever. My son lived forever. That world is the key for your old age. Many people in the leam of annointing defy elderly people. You see a man who should be your grandfather, say come here, because you are the bishop. I listen to men, and Lord, if some if God is working in the man. I humble myself to food because you don't know what happened before God choose that man. Don't fight it. Most of our preachers today. The only quotes men that are dead, because they see every other person in life as they are made. How can I quote this person? Come? People will answer, it's my mentor you will remain there for a long time, for a long time. In Portacot year one of the princes of this life, Bishop Ipo me nineteen ninety six, that's twenty three years ago. There are men that have been adminised for forty years. They have not They can't even dream of what it is because they connected to be sub w it today he said, turn and I'm the faith. You can't talk crystanth in Africa without mentioning his maid. Doctor point nature today that has a hound sit out thetorial. He did need to know. To go as at nineteen ninety six when he's coming from meeting. They don't happen to two hundred people today. The whole of penuested the. Other who said in according last week. They governor, the deputy governor, the chief of staff. They pick out, they all of them, where they honor them. I played for about ten years for me, senor man in Bible study. Once I met a possa, I came, he heard my hand and say, I've got start taking me. I didn't understand what you were saying. I have not started her. I wanted to tell him I've been pretty, but I said, okay, let me tell him who I am. I say, I'm a seer. They said, why you enterre your first season? I will tell you. I got angry. I wanted to go. The only girls advised me to stay. The same only goes that all of us here the same father that all of us pray to. He had advised me to stay, and I stayed. After four years, he came. He said, the Lord of the Apostolic's resting on you now. And he sent me for a meeting in NYC or relational camp. And on my birthday in twenty nineteen, he said, you have received the apostolical role. That was the same year the Lord came and told me to begin to announce you. Does this mean God's calendar depends on what other men tell me? He said, the air. So long as he's a child, the parent notted from the Sabbath, though he be. Lord of awe there for the Father places him under two thos and governors allti the time appointed of the Father. You will stay under certain anty they approve of you. Heaven, we don't approve of you. You will argue it by arrogant time will tell you you are rob And when he told me the time. Has come, in one year, I had more than two hundred and fifty invitations. I said this with out humility, But I need to confer a point to you, especially most of you who are younger and trusting God. No pride attached, because we don't do what we do by any specialism. Is the messy of God, the. Same message I've been treaty for many years. A man came and said, this is the time. God echoed it. The time has come, And certainly, certainly a wing broke out. Every time. You will resist men wh are in trouble. Jesus the word of God. The Bible said, he went to John to be baptized. How do you mean, how can you the word of God go to a man. You say this is not right. Jesus says, so far it to be so. For now it becoming also fulfill or righteousness. The moment Jesus. Allowed himself to be baptized, as he came out of praying, the Bible said, they have as. He had been praying for close to thirty years. How come they have only opened when he went to submit to John. He's a law in the kingdom. Man are careers of God, and there. Are some most encounter for the dimensions of God was freed to break out. It could be further. It could be a brother, could be a friend. Or you must see him as the man God wants you to meet. I would say, without every contradition, the less is blessed of the better. When you received an encounter, you've got fire. How to keep the fire burning work is by waiting upon. The law, as that chapter forty twenty year to thirty one? Have you not heard has he. Loved been said to you that they have the last thing godfence? And on other is I being? He giveth power to the plaith and not to them. But have no mighty increases strength. Even the youths are faint, that the young man's are atttered form? Or did that wait upon the law? He knew the extreams the mount talk with wounds like the egos the man. They are not with it. They walk, they don't face Look twenty four forty nine. Tarry in Jerusalem what you are in due with power. If you don't develop the act of waiting, you can never be set on fire. Because when we wait, what happens to us is that we are giving the privilege to beholding. And when you behold him, you are changed, say God Correngelstree eighteen. He said, as we behold him. With on very faces, we are changed. Where you see a. Man so standing, the fire of God is an s part in waiting, It's an start. He does it like the way he wakes up everybody. He knows how to hide. The babble will say. Jesus slicked out from the cloud and went to the mountain. The cru said he minister that in the evening everybody was seeing the crowd got at the guy, and he snicked and went to the mountain. I thought, they're going to gather crowd. If you don't wait, to have nothing to give you a word, don't give the fire body. He give them to prayers, act as city as fall. We will not attend to tables. We will give ourselves to prayer and the ministry of the world. Every time we pray, we cause our spreadman to glow. In mat two Seventembers two, as he prayed the fashion of his contenance was all that his red. Men please start, Why you pray what you do is that you wear the garment of heaven. The devil. We know. Men may not see what the devil knows. When you come up from the place of prayer, you glow. That's why most times. As Jesus come from the prayer room, they didn't see him. And they begin to scream. They begin to scream, what a doubt to do with us? He had praised you glow? The Bible said, most is whiskma that his face. So he had been with the law. He had been with the Lord. You carry the flame of his of his tool, and you bring it to your world. When him said in Manda Benta, dear, when he comes. Out, he comes with it. Give me to prayer tadly. Give him to the world. Look at him as one is a man ought always to pray and not to faint. But in two chapter four vers four, he said, man shall not live by bread alone, but by every world that pulls it from the mouth of God. Give us this day our daily bread. So if we receive daily bread every day, there we must eat the world every day. Don't have time, so have you. Kicked the fire. Keep paying. Look one that's eighty. Yuah was in the wilderness until the day officially forth, But why was his seventh there? He grew and walked strong in the spirit. Look chapter two forty They child Jesus grew and watch tongue is spilled. He grew in the grace of God. If you don't grow, see it's a pathetic team for the same temptations. That have been pulling you down for five years to still pull you down. Now grow up. When I was a child, it was impossible for my leg to be neat. If you see me doing my time, you will laugh. The leg will not only be deady, it will be caught everywhere. Then we try, sometimes they will take. We will take our bath, and then we will stay in Dorty twelfth. Give us one hour when we come outside, from the leg to the knees white and dusty. Even if we bath five times in the day, the leg you could be texting now. Even if you don't take your bath for two days, your leg is neat. You know why you have grown. You don't play with sand anymore. You want to keep the fire bonney. How do we grow by beholding him emathy. So whaittiing is directly attacked to growing. When you see him, will become like him. Finally, how do you keep the fire burning? Walking in obedience and the fear of the Lord. In Probab chapter one, verse twenty three, he said, turn to my rebuke, and now we pour out my spirit upon you. Every time a man rebels the Lord, the holy gost is released. In us. After fire I started two Peter spoke about the holy girls that is given to them that obeyed him, then that obey. I don't have time to tell you the quenchance of fire, but I'll mention it. One disappointment, two offense, three businesses, four distraction, five scene. These are quaints of the fire of God. You may you may not be sinning, But watch Bobby for two weeks. Why you come back to the prayer room. You will discover that one hour will become like one year. Quench as still on Facebook every day for two weeks, you will be shot. You will come back and you will start desiring the things. Who are dead. Be a man, accept to fence all the time. Your have to be heavy. Is they put aside every week that does easily beset us and run the race with pasion. Quenches of fire. Bob. We must keep our fire bony. The last way to keep your fire bondy is praise. Is say everything that has breath, let it praise the Lord some one fifty six. He's some ninety two, Verse one and ten. He says, the good thing to praise the Lord morning and evil which you give tanks to his holy walks and invest, he said, And the Lord shall annoyed my head with fresh. Oil, and my horn shut out ex alt like the horn of the unicorn. Why you see a man who praises God all the time, he is on fire. Circumstances can't tad him. Romans Taft eighth, verse eighteen to twenty. I can't hope believe the hope that was Abraham. He's tuknot at the promise of God. Won't believe what he was strong in faith. Giving tiants to the Lord this morn. In the next two. Minutes, rise to your feet. Let's give tongue to the Lord who prefer the sick, so that the yots will Be a broken because of the annoys
