First Corinthians, Chapter twelfth one. Now, concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. You were gentiles carried away onto these dumb idols, even as you were led. Wherefore I give you to understand that no man speaking by the spirit of God call it Jesus accursed, and that no man can say that Jesus is Lord, but by the holy ghosts. Now, they are diversities of gifts, but the same spirit. They are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And they are diversities of operations, but it's the same God which work at all. In all, but the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit without. The manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit without. You know, when we were beginning these emphasis I had to show us from Scripture the reason why Apostle Paul felt it was important for the Corinthian believers to be equipped in the knowledge of how the supernatural dimensions of our God are made manifest. The reason is because these individuals had experience with the manifestation of demonic powers, and so there was a need for this individuals to be instructed in the ways of the divine supernatural. If you read first co in terns of the twelve verse two, you will have an insight into the background of the individuals that he was preaching too, and you will realize that there were gentiles that had access. They had knowledge of the supernatural realm, but from the demonic perspective, and so there was a need for him to enlighten them. So they were not novices. They were not spiritual novices. It's just that their education spiritually came from spirits of error, and because of that, there was an urgency to bring them into the knowledge of the divine supernatural, which is different from the demonicsupernatural. There were two things that he told them. Since that we're migrating from the experience of the demonic supernatural to the realm of the divine supernatural, two things were worthy of note in the transition, and that's what we have invest Three, he says, wherefore, I give you to understand that no man speaking by the spirit of God called Jesus a curse. That's the first's rule. And the second rule is that no man can say Jesus is Lord bought by what the Holy spirit. So the template is different. The shape of the dimension is different, and the laws that govern the operation of the supernatural in the divine realm are also different. So the fact that you had experience in demonic things doesn't automatically you can convert from that and gain rank based on your knowledge of the demonic reme. You will need to break free and then on lane so that you can lean. Now, once upon a time, are you stay with me? Once upon a time there was this individual let me say individual, so you don't know if it's male or female. And this individual was notable, notable in the art of divination those that were in a certain city in Nigeria in the eighties who recognized this individual as someone that used to do spiritual cleansings by the river bank and ancestral venerations. Allelujah. No details of this individual, but it's an individual. So it was into spiritual cleanses into ancestral generations where you see people with white clues, those of you. If your sister Beth, I need to take you to Nigeria quickly because sometimes I find words to explain some things so that people that the Americans bound can understand what I'm saying. Now in the worship of Deity, spirits that are connected to the water, because there are three platforms that you can find a concentration of demonic spirits. The first platform is the water, second platform is the graveyard. Ted platform is the forest. Spirits that operate from the water are different. The emphasis, the admission is different. The abilities are and that's why when God was using Apostle Paul to educate us, he broke the spirit into categories. There are some that they called powers. He called them what powers. And when we talk about power, what we're talking about is ability. It means that there are some demonic entities that have some types of abilities. It is because of the types of abilities that they have that they become recommended in several situations and several circumstances. For instance, if someone wants someone dead, there are some spirits that have the assassines that can be invited on the scene to manifest their power. Exactly so this individual and that's the reason why mortal men seek the aid of some of these entities because of the powers that they have. Have you read your Bible, The Bible says the blessings of the Lord did make it rich, and it will it acts no sorrow to it. You know, no sorrow is added because the original spirit that was designed to make men wealthy is the Holy Ghost. Meanwhile, in the Kingdom of darkness, they are spirits and allotment of spirits that boast that they can make you wealthy. But the difference is that when they bring the wealth their original ability, because they are powers, that we afflict you with the original ability. So if the spirit is a spirit of barrenness, you have wealth close multiplied barrenness in the realm. And that's how we know that it was not the original spirit for wealth you consulted. It was a masquerade. May the Lord give you understanding. This supernatural dimension is not just limited to the Holy Spirit. Their dimensions of the supernatural in the demonic realm. However, Paul felt that it was necessary for him to bring an insight into the people that had already experienced the demonic supernatural before they gave their elect to Christ, so that they can understand the principles. They can understand the practice and the procedure of the manifestation of the divine supernatural. So that was the introduction that he gave on to them. Before I go back to where I stopped, I need to show you four facts about spiritual gifts. For facts about spiritual gifts, the first fact is that they are gifts. So you don't work for them. You don't end them alleluyah. You can pay price for their manifestation, but you don't pay a price to end them. There there's a difference between the gift and the manifestation of a gift. Are you there? So you might pay a price. Everything in Christ you need to pay a price in order for you to manifest it maximally. So you will hear somebody like Apostle process that I labeled more than them all, Yet not I, but the grace of God that is in me. So when you hear somebody claiming to preach grece An, he removes label from Greece. Grace equips you to be able to label in a skilled way. Are you there in order for you to be able to maximize the investment that God has placed on your life. For instance, I have a teaching gift. The series have been teaching I don't know how many lessons we have had on prophecy and will not stop until the lot say do something else. Now, you don't have the capacity to continue teaching like that even though you have the teaching gift, you will you spend many nights not sleeping because you need to get content to come and teach. So there is label that are company's grace. Because of the grace, the teaching grace I have or the teaching gift I have as I started, the Holy Spirit helps me and guides me into all truth true percept upon percept through line up online. So the grace that is present on your life is a call to label. If you don't participate with that grace in supportive label, the grace will not produce its results. So when we talk about grace, don't be quick to separate it from labor, because it's labor that is going to make grace to become excellent. So the first thing I want us to know is that it is a gift and it's not ended. There is a way to relate with something you have not ended, something that was given to you as a gift. You did not work for it. You do not work for it. So it's a gift. I just realized in my life at some point it was I guess it was in no no No. I started teaching in nineteen eighty I forgot it nineteen eighty something, started teaching in ninety eighty something. It started in the nineties, it became became stronger allelujah because of Libal. So when it's a gift number two, the every believer has the spiritual gifts. Every believer has his spiritual gift. All right, So are you there in first Quarrenthians after twelve, verse seven, just to prove that every believer has a spiritual gift. But the manifestation of the spirit is given to every man. Every man. Now I need you to understand the what God had in mind before it equitted to all spiritual gifts. In the eyes of God. He believes that you are insufficient in the eyes of God. It believes that you are incapable in the eyes of God. He believes that you are not adequately and equipped to engage this life. For instance, the Bible says that the spirit help at our affirmaties, for we know not what we should pray as we ought. So the first line of our affirmity is in the area of lack of knowledge. If an angel should come to your room and say God is in a good mood this night, pray, he will answer ask for anything, I'll show you ask for the wrong thing. Because you have a limitation in the area of knowledge. We know not. That means in the area of knowledge you need help. You have an effirmity that is going to make you incapable of being accurate in spiritual participation. So because of that, the Holy Spirit comes to aid you. Exactly, so we have an a limitation in the area of knowledge. The second limitation that we have say, we know not what we should pray as we ought. Now, the second limitation we have is an inability to discern how much of our investment is needed in order for a spiritual point to be made. We don't know what we need to pray. We don't know how we ought to pray. Is in the second limitation. Even if the Engel comes and say pray for your mom, it gives you the prayer point that's the accurate prayer point to pray. That capture is saying that you are deficient in knowing how much your prayer can register the prayer point. We don't know how we ought to pray. That's quantity exactly. Now. The third limitation we have, according to that script, is that we don't even have the vocabulary to make those prayers, because the Bible says that the spirit helpet our effirmities, and in one of the ways it does is in grownings that human beings cannot otter. So in view of their above, God is aware of the fact that you are handicapped. You are limited. You do not have the capacity to handle things that are orchestrated from the remote the spirit and the fiscal world is manipulated from the spirit dimension. So in order for you to upgrade, because somebody is in the congression is telling me that a person, we are not all preachers. I am a business person, and so why do I need I just need a calculator. I need a good brain, and I need to understand the trend of sales in my area of endevo. And I'm going to show you that numbers, fe goes and calculators is not what determines who goes up and who comes down. Is not what determines who dies and who lives. Ali lawyer, because there's a temptation for you to think that the reason why things are happening the way they are happening is because your genius just know how to press all the right buttons. It will continue like that until you are challenged from the remo the spirit. Then all the symptoms of your infirmity will begin to find expression. So in the eyes of God, he believes that we are ill equipped to engage life in this world. Do you still remember Jesus' idea of who believers are? Are men that are capable of supernatural ability, he say, and this science, I follow them that believe in my name. The people that believe in my name, you don't know them by their names, You know them by the signs they manifest. So according to Jesus, peace believers, people that believe in him are no longer natural. And the way you can identify them is that they have it's supernatural hand as supernatural handle that can do damage to demons, to sickness, and they are indestructible just in case you put a deadleting for them and they drink it. A lawyer. So God believes that we are not equipped for this life. I remember one guy that he had a first class degree in his discipline, got admission in the United Kingdom for masters, and his establishment released him to go for masters. And after when he came back, he came back with master's degree and PhD all in flying colors. And when he tended his new status of qualification, his immediate boss was threatened because he was a pirdy hood, but he was not too threatened because he was still boss. Three weeks along the line and opening manifested itself and two of them were qualified to apply for it, and the young man basted his boss. So he became qualified for that office. And if he's going to operate in that office, it becomes the senior to his boss. Operasionally, the boss who needed to me needs to him. After two days, after two weeks, the guy comes to the office, sits on his seat and he runs mad. So you alle luyer. It's an intelligent guy, but he was not equipped for life because the language of life is supernatural. And part of what we want to do is to encourage us to pick up tools to engage life. Don't ever think that it's about like those of you that no elections in Africa. You know that it's not about census and pulling units. It's a game of power, and if you don't have power, don't step into that Therein people have come in with good ideas say okay, we want to change the land, and when the real battle started, they were not equipped for it. So the spiritual gives is an attempt of God to bring us to a place of equipment where we have what it takes to engage in life, engage in every sphere of human and devil that God has placed us. You need supernatural tools to survive there. And we are not just there to survive. We are there to take over. In the name of Jesus. I don't like just surviving. Please stop surviving. We're here to take over. Well, that's why we are pressing that you should exercise your spirit. We are pressing that you should understand what it means to rule by prayer, because we are not here to survive. We're here to take over. It doesn't matter the attacks you claim to be experiencing today. I also experienced similar to you. I broke free from the change of those things, and God equipped me with ability that is supernatural. Today, if they send the witch and assigned that which that your project is to destroy this man, even the which will be afraid. So pick up the gift that is within you. Pick it up. I'm trusting that this message will inspire you in Jesus Mighty name. So even though you were born aked, when you were born again, you were not You were born with a gift. That's what I'm saying. Physically you were born, but when you were born into the Kingdom of God, we were not gift less because the Bible says that the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every one, every one, every one. Even though in geological school that we were told that the gift of prophecies, the best gifts, is the most I may not believe that what I believe is the best gift is the gift you need in your situation, a circumstance, in your challenge, in your battle. There is a supernatural response that the Holy Spirit is willing to give. And that response is going to be a response not from the natural, a response from the supernatural realm. That's how we respond to life, supernaturally. Allelujah. So in Legos, there is a type of boss called Molowe. Now you never use that boss in the name of Jesus, don't even remember that name. But it doesn't change the fact that there's a type of boss called molue. And I don't want to take you to the details on how the boss was constructed. It took human genuity to come up with that concept. So the boss never completely stops. So as it's as the boss is slowing down, you run. And so that's mollowe. A lot of supernatural things happen on Moluwe. That's where you see how the world looks like. You want to know how the world looks like. It's not in in west Vago bank, It's not it's in Mollua. That's it gives you a sample space of how our world looks like where you meet every day people with everyday ways of survivor m so not if you go to Welsfago you even wonder if it's a bank, if you have had banking experience in other places and you come to the US where the Lord give you understanding. So if you want to if you want to see how life looks like, then you need to board more lower. So you're more lower. You will see old men in the Boss, old women in the Boss, young men in the Boss, single people in the Boss. Gen Z you see them in the Boss. So it's a sample space that gives you an insight as to what there is in life. Then one of those days, one of the old men felt a young man had despised him, and he stood up from the back of the boss and said, begin to remove your clothes. So he used demonic power and cast this fell on him, give him a commandment, begin to remove your clothes, and instantly the young man started a mom I'm just saying more lower gives us an accent. It gives us a window to understand real life. Not lie, not not this kind of line that is insulated from the reconstruct of Humaney in existence. And the young man began to remove his group. Then someone was offended by what they the old man did. And because that person also has a rank this time the kingdom of God is he told the old man, if you not do this, you begin to remove your clothes. And then the old man you will never see that this kind of action in one day until you board what the more way, if you use the more transport system for one year, you will know you need power. The reason why you are not aware of your need for power is because you work at Wellsphago. You work we needed to or molleling. Every one of us is gifted, is so gifted because God is in the business of equipping us to be able to deliver the mandate of our calling upon the face of the earth. What your calling is is it's a policy enforcement. You are enforcing the will of God. You know certain has a will for you, and we are insisting that we will not fulfill it. So if that is going to happen, you will enforce the will of God for your life. It's forstful, it's ratica. That's how things get to happen. If you know how consistent, which is our warlocks are consistent, how consistent demons are. So God equips us, Alan Loujah, He empowers us, He empowers us. We were in a meeting, big meeting, big meeting, and the power God hit the lady and she began to speak that she's among the witches and the center to come and destroy me. You don't destroy me like that. You don't just wake up and say I will destroy it because I'm equipped. I'm equipped with spiritual capacity such that the will of Satan cannot. Come to pass in my life. That was what God had in mind for which he made a location for what spiritual gifts. The older pastors that taught us ministry, the older pastors that taught US ministry said that we should teach about spiritual gives once every year. Those ones are masters, are masters of ministry. As a young man, come, if you want a victorious church, every year, you must teach about spiritual gives. So there are some topics that we must teach every year. Yes, So if are you there? Preaching is like sculpture. It's like it's like painting on the canvas of the source of men. It's a skill. It's a skill that is done with precision, because there is a goal that God has for the efforts of preaching, which is not which is not necessarily the preference of the preacher. That the goal of preaching is already in scripture. Are you with me? It's already there, So it was already predetermined before you became a minister of the gospel. So it's a skill. It's it's it's like, okay, let me show you, let me digress and show you something. Now, this is false speaking. He came to the region of Galicia, It says, so foolish galicians, who has they wished you? Are you? Are you seeing that in this scripture? He knew that the corporate was human, the corporate responsible for their condition. Oh you're not fully who That's what they wished you, that you should not obey the truth. Now, he didn't say you should not believe the truth. What this be which meant died, was that it made them not to be the truth. The thing about God is this. It isn't about God is this. It is when you begin to obey him that you begin to see results. So you might believe a lot of things that you don't to be. We don't practice. He doesn't produce results. So bewitch men stops you from practicing. And the colprit was a man. Oh, in order for this message not okay, I will discipline myself. The message wants to change, but do no worry, I'll discipline myself. It was bewich men. They stopped them from obeying the truth, even though they believed it, but they did not obey. It's because a preacher was invited into their mists, and they thought it was ministry. The man was given, but he was actually in the business of manipulation. He ended up bewitching them, and it took from them the ability to be the truth. Now, this is the reason why a possible believes that they are victims of bewitch men. It says, it says, before whose eyes? I hope you know who is talking to? Who is he talking to galicians? If you are not sure it is the galicians, please praise your hand so that I can claim. Who is he talking to? Valasias. These guys were gentiles that just came into the Kingdom of God and was saying before their eyes Jesus was evidently set forth and crucified among them. What's the meaning of that? It means that Paul came with scriptures and began to paint the portrait of the cross and the meaning of redemption, the. Claims of divying justice. Because on the strength of the rebellion of Adam, the sentence for a dam was already spoken to Adam before damn rebel for God came to him the Guardian and said, in the day that you eat of this fruit in dying, yes shall surely die. That was the position of the justice system of Heaven concerning that dimension of rebellion. For Adam, his dealings from God was around the trees. For Abel, his dealings from God was around the sacrifice. For for Abraham, his dealions from God was around his olds. So there is a context for which God dealt with every man, even you. There is a context for which he would deal with you. Now this guy, are you there? Paul came and he began to print the picture of redemption by showing them man's basic need. Man needed a severe because the whole human raised, the human gene, had been corrupted, and in his natural estate he was handicapped. He could not enter into his original habitat, his original habitat. As man is the glory of God, then is an environment. It's not a location. I will explain later, not today. I will explain later. Because you can create edden in your household if you go to the Book of Joe chapter two, when it speaks about the army of the Lord, blow the trumpetingsire, sound an alarm on my holy mountain. Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the day of the Lord commet is night at hand, a day. Of darkness, and women's a day of clouds. And this darkness as the morning space upon the mountains, and people are a strong There has never been the likeness of which, even onto the tune of many generations, the fire devored before them and behind them a flame bonnet. The land is like the Guardian of Eden before them, So Iden can be created. Iden can be created now. So so so Paul began to explain man's basic need was a savior. And from the time that man fail, are you there? Everything that God did between the time that man felt the time that Jesus came and died, God was just acting the drama of Jesus is coming, using various Yes, it was acting the drama. I can't show you that drama many signs pointing to the fact that Jesus was coming. Jesus. God did not only PROPHESI I speak to the prophets and professors about Jesus. He acted the scenario of Jesus is coming through many generations. So that's why that book called the Bible is entirely prophetic. And you can be in a situation today you find the skepture that's peaks about it directly. It's because it was weaved in prophecy. And that's why I need to equip us on understanding prophecies so that you will be able to understand that Bible. So everything that God was doing was just showcasing what he wants to do in Jesus, showcasing what he wants to do. So the sum total of what the entire Bible is about, it is about Christ and his kingdom. The old some man spoke about Christ as a savior to fulfill month's basic need. And then that sacrifice that took place upon the cross, satisfying the claims of the Evangeustice. And then subsequently, after the death of Christ, the Bible begins to show the workings of the purposes of God in the earth on the account of the fact that man has become restored. So the Bible is about Christ and his kingdom. This guy had finished his teacher and all of them understood redemption. And then the preacher came, are you there? So Paul was painting. The death of Christ, the Cross of Christ, the implication as an artist as a painter, until the imagery became so clear that everybody could see. And Ah, when he came back the past few months, because they were invited guest ministers, m he now saw them trying to pay for their seines, trying to do something so that God will be pleased and will forgive them. It means that the knowledge of the cross that he came to paint. A painter. Another painter from out of town had come into the ring, and he had madd that painting, and the imagery of Christ was disparted, and the people began to behave as if they were hidden. He said, who they wished you, let me let me stop here, Let me stop here, let me stop you, let me stop you. Just what I have a message? It is four parts hope. He wished you. I will show you twelfteens in the body of Christ that is not in the Bible. But we practice before I preach. I would look for the nation to preach that you know, I look for their The Lord wiples who be wished you the painting was accurate, that could see Christ, that could see save you. And you see, our faith in the New Testament is faith in a man, faith in Jesus. Not fitting an idea, not faitting a concept, not fitting a policy, not fitting an agenda. It's faith in a man. And that's why we're called believers because you exercise faith to become saved, and you keep exercising faith in Him to become everything that He has wouldained you to be. So he is the author and it's what is the finisher of our faith. But someone can come I'm finished preaching to you, and you would think, let me stop them till that till that day when we talk about who has be wished you? Who has been wishing? He traced the conflict to a man, an entity, human entity, not a demonic spirit. This time, this investigation who has bewished you, if it's adequately conducted, you can actually know the best. That's what I'm saying. When we finish this, who has be wished you? You are people you need to apprehend. You will know that who'll be wished? Sorry about it. I was just crying from inside. That's my own problem. I'm afflicted you with my problem, and I'm I'm sorry sorry about that. Number three, concerning spiritual gives, that is a key word that Paul uses, and he uses this keyword in verse seven, which is manifestation. Please don't forget this. The key word is what manifestation? This keyword. Because of the use of this keyword, it sets apart this dimension of God from all that dimensions of God. There's not every dimension of God that is a manifestation. Just like you have parts of your body that are not visible. The fact that they are not visible doesn't mean they don't exist. If you see someone's liver on these streets, what does it mean the person has died because some things were not meant to be visible. So there are many manifestations of God inside of your vessel that are not visible. But when we talk about manifestation, it means that this part of God's operation is visible for all eyes to see. Manifestation manifestation. Marcour In my lift in Marcury, when I came back from the trip, we landed the airport about two pm. We're taking home and all of that, and I felt like sleeping for one hour. My wife was on the bed, but in that sleep I saw many things, but she didn't know. My God's not a manifestation. It took place in the privacy of my spirit, and I've not she did it. That operation of God is different from this type. These ones are called. What manifestations manifestations, They are visible. These dimensions are designed to break the heart of harding people. Sometimes you preach the Gospel and the people you are preaching to a harding, harding there is a manifestation of God that can come back, that can meant. That had. Where God, the person is God, arelive again, and you cannot deny that he saw what a monifestation manifestation. So that is the power word in the layout of spiritual givens the word manifestation, manifestation. And they are manifestations for people in the marketplace. They have manifestations for people in the medical field. They are manifestations for people in law enforcement. They are manifestations for people in the ministry. They are manifestations of people in legal practice. We are signed up as an attorney certain case. They are manifestations that can take place, that can draw your heart to the place of emphasis on how to argue that matter. They are God is saying, I know I have dimensions that can operate in secrecy, but I also have dimensions that can operate in the open. Those days one we're being discipled as believers. We're told to be pious. We're told to be sanctimonious, We're told to be sacramental, just common. You're just ladies. Until I saw the world what manifestations. I thank God for your piety and your satimony. But they are dimensions of God that are what manifestations. I would not believe what they told us I would believe the Bible. I believe that's my own that's my determination. If I see it in the Bible, even if it's an angel that came, then I said, oh, this is it. I will discuss that. Throw it in the trash car. The manifestations of the spirit. So the virtual gives a manifestations. Manifestations, manifestations, manifestations. Now this is what happens. Okay, let me look for a scripture. It's not on my script but I need to introduce you to a scripture. I pray one day you be ready, Let's teach four hours, just four hours. You will not know that is four hours. You're not. By the time we are done, and we just pray for for five minutes or one hour, that teaching will live with you forever. Let me give you a scripture. I think it's Galicians, Galians of the one verse twenty to twenty four. Galatians one twenty to twenty four, right, so twenty says now the things which are right onto you, behold before God the eye line, not afterwards. I came into the regions of Syria and Selicia, and was unknown by faith, onto the churches of Judea which were in Christ. But they had heard only that he which prosecuted us in times past now preachet the fate which once he destroyed twenty four And they did what they glorified God in me. What's the matter that it was because one of the reasons why they accepted that that guy was really born again was because they were manifestations, and they saw that the hand on God with God on him was so much the glorified God in me. You can become an object through which men will glorify God. If there are manifestations in your life. The God in me will not be silent. The God in me will arise, and all nations shall see him. His brightness shall be excellent. And they glorified God in me. They knew him not by face. Nobody knew him by face. So he walked into their midst, and they did not identify him with the name soul. But they have heard that the guy that that that persecuted the church now prechest Christ before a proper into lock. From what was done, he manifested something, and by the time they introduced him as as the traitor, it was too late. They glorified God. So it is through the gifts of the spirit that people see God, a new. God in you, God in me. They're glorified. Oh, may he that is in you not sleep. May he that is in you not slumber. May He that is in you not being muted out, that glorified God in me. Glorified car, A glorified car. I remember those days, Oh, oh my God. Because we didn't have flight services in my city. So every Friday, I'm packed up, I'm going on missions. So I use there is a VOS service called the Benwell Links, the Benell Links. Never died that that was the transport service. That was my navigation system. From those places. I went to Oh God, by a coopa. I traveled the night in the in the midnight in Ellen, I was had to meet deadlines. And on Monday morning, you see me on my seat in the office typing. And one of those days I was moving. We're coming back from a mighty meeting. I prayed, I reread, I fasted, I fasted, I fasted. I came on the Cruiselle ground called the nor Move. So I was I was moaning Jesus quast like. Oh on Jesus. The manversation I saw was. I was not commensury. I read so well. It was time to go. I hoped on the boss and we were moving. It was supposed to be an eight hour trip. Four hours into the trip, somebody guided us. That was when Jesus spoke to me that the prayers, your prayer is to raise this man from the dead, not for your cruise aid. They glorified God in me. They glorified God in me. So my heartbreak was mended instantly. The glorified God. They glorified God. They glorified God. Even the own believers were forced to give glory to God. Those that never never thought on his name, that were compared to look on these works. You are the key to the libration of someone. You are the key to the deliference of some, and you will be his weapon in the name of glorified God. And me. The baby came back to life. So that word manifestation is key. It's very key. And let me check my watch. Ah, he's obvious. We may not be able to go so far today. Manifestation and then number four, number four. It is always supernatural. It is always supernatural. It's not something that is borne out of psychology. It's not a function of reading people's minds and predicting what they think it's supernatural means that the Holigos will need to put it there. The Holigos will need to facilitate it by permitting. He will need to be one that we induce it. He will, he will initiate it, he will release it. Are you there? And if you ask me what can I do for you to be released? Speaking tongues? Speaking tongues for long speaking, then you will discover that in the Holigos is all the wisdom that you need. Is everything that God knew you would need is packaged in the Holygos. The only problem is that most believers don't know how to occasion a manifestation. All right, So that's just a recap. I think it's time for me to see if we can add one more app one more feather to the cap. We have been wearing for some time. So in our our study of the gift of Prophecy, we were able to establish that the only gift in among all the gifts that we are enjoined to judge we need to judge Prophecy is Professor. So we began a journey on how to judge Prophecy, and the first thing that we saw. How many of us remember the first thing that we considered when we began to speak about judging prophecy. All right, so that's the first one. So number two, Number two things that you need to do in judging prophecy. I just came from New York and a friend of mine that I've been praying for him to get married came to see me. And when he came, he came with a prophecy from someone that somebody told him that this is how his wife will be as he throw that thing into the trash can throw it into the trash can. Number two, we need to ask this question, does the Holy Spirit be a witness within us concerning the prophecy that was spoken? John chapter two, verse twenty seven. When we're done with John two twenty seven, then Romans aid verse sixteen and Acts sixteen, verse eighteen. So let's start with John chapter two, verse twenty seven. John to verse twenty No, no, no, no, first John two twenty seven. I'm sorry, first, John to twenty seven, first churn to first twenty seven. So part of the safe God that God has put in place, part of the safe God that God has put in place in order for us not to be bamboozled by a false prophetic release is what we call the inner anointing. Now listen to me. The anointing that we have, that is what I call the inner anointing. That inna anointing is anointing that empowers you to leave the life of Christ. The outer anointing, which is the one that comes upon you when you preach, is the one that empowered ask you to save Christ. So the one on us is for service and the one within ours is for life. You will notice that there are two similar parables in the Bible. One is the Parable of the Virgins. That parable is analyzing our progression in life. Living. Are you there? And then we have the parable of the Talent. That one is talking about our service. So there are things that God gives us to equip us to serve, and there are things that God gives us so that we will be capable of living according to prescription. So the inn anointing is one of those resources that God makes available as a safe God. You see, I'm going to show you all the safeguards and the prophetic so that if someone is saying does said the Lord, you will not be able to dissipure. So the first safe God is what we call the inner anointing. The Bible says, bo the anointing which you have received of Him abide that in you. It means that the location of this anointed is inside you. See, because it is inside the speaking state functionality, the operation of this anointing will be inside. So will you will sense this anointing inside exactly because it happens to abide in you. Because of this anointing that abides in you, you need not anyone teach you. You don't go to a school in order to learn what the anointing which is in you is teaching you. You see, my kids go to school, and it's quite expensive. It's expensive, Jesus, But you don't go to a school to learn about the inner annoyting. The inner anointing is the mechanism that God puts inside of you in order to bring you into spiritual knowledge. See, spiritual knowledge is not a function of your research. Spiritual knowledge is not a function of how many books you have read. And I'm not saying don't read books? Are you? The okay? In my in my area, I mean scholar, So I read. So I'm not saying, don't read. But spiritual knowledge is not the function of the books you read. Is not a function by seven us. You're about ten, dad. It's not a function of how many professions stacks before. Spiritual knowledge is handed out by the holigos. It is that type of knowledge by which you know and you don't know how you know what you. Yet you know. That's what he calls the function but from the Holywood, and I'm going to take you there, but I wanted you to understand it. Function is in verse twenty. But understand this first. It's easy for you to understand if we come to twenty seven before we go to twenty. Sometimes when I'm reading a scripture, I can't understand that. I read one first, two, three, four, five, six. I can understand it. Then I read six five four three two one. Sometimes I can show you. I can show you some scriptures that that's the only way you can understand it. Made a lot. If I show you the picture of the Eternal Purpose and I give you to read it, it's like it's like a maze. But I say stop read it backwards. How do I know this? By the unction? It's a ye, half an unction? I know your experts in your field. And I know I salute you. I salute you every day, I will salute you. But can you listen to the unction. That function can give you a deal that your many years of label cannot give him. That function can give you a breakthrough in just five minutes we have ann The real tresure you have is this unction. Do anything to develop this function to a point where it begins to teach you, because in the in the unction, in the unction, the annointance of things a teaching capacity to educate you by knowings which you have not learned, and knowings by which you have never been taught. I need no man teach you. The moment that aunction kicks in and begins to teach you, you will know it. And in that discernment worrying of the Holigos, that will make you know that this is the Holy Goes teaching. But the same annoying in tea teacher to all things. And it's truth. Underline truth, because I need to show you that truth is different from truth. It's truth. You will notice that that woman, that lady that was possessed with the spirit of divination, what she said was true. These are the servants of the most like God that show us the way of salvation. That's true. True is a statement of fact, Truth the substance of reality. Truth is a person. Jesus was the one that said, I am the way, I am the truth, I am the life. No man comment on to the Father but by me, because of how significant. He is. He doesn't need to advertise. You know, on Facebook all kinds of advertisements. But Jesus doesn't need to advertise because if you ever come to the Father, it was by him. The life cannot be established on deceptions and falsehood. Truth you start with sex free. This function is truth. It is saying this function has truth. It is saying this answer speaks truth. He said, this function is truth, and I'm going to show you if I have time. I went to preaching a city called Jaws for my friend Gideon, and when we began to speak in tongues, I heard the tongues of a lady in the congregation, and I knew that that tongue was not from God. I tried to I turned my face so that so that I would be sure that it was not. I wasn't seeing any physical thing. Are you with me that it was the own song that was transmitted the tongues my split table. Then I russ up, I pointed the lady, I said, shut up, and she fell off and began to manifest. She was a which you know, I miss speaking witchcraft tones when we're speaking holy goods toe and people came to me at the end of seven. How do you know we have a nonsense. You don't need to know everything in the in the in the hardway of your mind. Trust the unction. H m hm, trust the unction. And that's how that libety would that we would herself into the prayer group with the witchcraft stoms, and that lady will begin to give profess in the prayer with maraka no, no, no, no, we have and this is safe God. I think we need to do school or profess one of these these school of profess. Let's oh my god. We have an unction. It's a. It's a it's a it's a teacher to your own things. So this aunction can teach you about business, it can teach you about politics. They can give you a strategy to conquer in your campaign. The unction that's the seat of the holy spirits wisdom. This is the conduit. Trouble to access the mind of Christ. We have what unluntion. An auction, an auction, an auction. He said, that function is truth and is no lie. If you know this function, you can depend on it. The unction never speaks a lie. This function when he teaches you, When this function teaches you something, abide in it. Don't deviate from it. Your sulfa losses. After being taught by this function, you decide to depart from the teaching that the answer brought to you, you selfware losses. Abide, Please help me preach to your neighbor. Abide in the teachings of the unction. Yeah. Hm. I was invited to put it somewhere, and when I got to the place, the unction spoke the unction there was the way the anction moved, and I knew I was in the wrong place. Then I answered, the Holy goes, I can manage this. I can manage this. This car I got, I was tabbed. This car got from there. Not healed. I've not yet healed. I've not healed from it. He said, when the unction teaches, don't don't despise it. I'm bided it from that day and I retired as a politician. Once the Holy goes moves. I moved cast me to the day, but I moved. I said, no, he's stobborn just following the unction. Let me let me give you some insights. If we begin to follow the many people will say you're wed, But that's advanced wisdom. One of our pastor called me yesterday. I said, we're sorry, we didn't know what you were seeing. I'm not bothered that you people don't know, because I know what I'm passiving is in another time dimensioned. You can't see it with your senses, but when that time comes, maybe you will be convinced. I will not drive you away. Come NONTWHEREY, let's go. But I will not compromise the teaching of the answer because my experience, I have known that every time I walked away from it, I came back home with this. Now I realize what the scripture means when the Bible says that if you are a man pleaser, you're not a fant of God because the on show will go in a different direction than politics. If you want to be the most popular man around, you will be the man of the devil. I subjects and his ounction within me is the lamp by which that prepares away for my steps, for my feet. For the Lord, you will give you a light for your feet and a light for your path. This unction devere lies now going to verse twenty as I random. So this inner ounction, if somebody is professiing listening to the naunction. If the inner ounction does not revote that professor came from God. Two profess profession to me that this my wife wasn't my wife. He was an analytic. And are you there in different And I believe them because the professor had to me in different cities. Are one professor to me in. A city called. In Nigeria? Another one professor had to be in a city called Canoe in Nigeria. So I was going to propose to the lady the propheside that was my wife. Now, but Lord give you understand Meanwhile then I've not met how wait now, I was moving on the strength of two prophecies. I was in transit and when I was midway the Ansho and Swiss own. I bid in it. So when I got to the city, I knew I was in the wrong city. What did I do? I took the next vehicle. Let me give you this as I close. The difference between life and that many times is the cons Many people that were caught up in accidents, they no, they no gonna say something. Told me it was the own show that they are coming something. May you know that is a nonsense from the only one, and knock something took another vehicle left that city. It was six months later that the Lord spoke her name, of course, spoke my wife's name into my spirit, spoke it. And my proposal to her was, it seems something good can't happen between us. But said, no, I coming Jesus Christ. Sometimes when I think of the past, Oh, the Lord will help us. The Lord will help us. But this woman delivered me. If she doesn't do anything again to add too, that deliverance is enough. She delivered. I believe it was for that time Gos said this system. She rose off when darkness. Wanted to destroy me completely. I I would have ended up in a strange But you won't have known me, sister, that it came to Maccadia and you saw me. You never knew if I had gone the way of those prophecies. It was three years later and UN discovered that when that lady is angry, she doesn't eat for three days. They put her food in front of her dog. That's already. That's a ministration. Maid is called holy see coll Mail. You would not have known me. I would have been a depressed man. Not because I wouldn't have been able to do ministry. Because the ministry I will do. You'll not be able to visit my house. If you come, you will see every day when I am alone, I thank God that I did not make a mistake. Set time was on my case. Satan setan. People profess side, and the prophecy was the same, the same prophecy in two different cities, and I believed it, and God knew that I was in any wrong. Then the own show he switched on. I switched on. I switched on. Those two people that progressied are still alive. Mm hmm, you see alive. But no, let's not go another. Let's go Oh the dunction he sprang up, and the lie that was in my soul was blotted out. The shining of this function was intense. The light could not all it's it's it's hold. On me broke. It was shining. I knew I was in the wrong place. It was shining, made the unction shine from within you as a lamp in the dark place, and lettery ignorance on that which set and is hiding. They exposed so that you will walk in liberty in the name of Jesus Christ. You won't have known me fast, that's a roof us. You won't have known me. Maybe I would have been dead now three days. You will not eat because she's even the tough Father was afraid of her. You know, when you want to make a choice for yourself in the flesh that's you, it's a serpent that you would choose. Allowed the Holy gooods guidea. My time is so for tonight I want you to rise. We want to cry that that lamp within might shine with intensity. He said, But you have an nonsense from the Holy One, and you know there is no field of human endeavor that this armsong cannot give you illumination him shine from within me, that dwell between the zero beams, shine for. Shine, and shine for. Presco factor is. As Hamad two labor. But so the scripture says, O shepherd of Israel, now that leaders Israel like a flock, Now that dwells between the cero beams, shine food. How is he a shepherd of Israel? How does he lead them? He lists them by shining, by shining, O shepherd of Israel. You that leads Jacob like flock down, that duellist between the cherub beams.
