For Jesus' name, we pray. The Bible says it is a good thing to give thanks onto the Lord, to sing his praises in the morning, Allelujah. Most times people become careless over God's faithfulness until you go to the hospital and see someone still praising God with one leg suspended because of an accident. Until you see someone who from a. Medical standpoint, has been told has weeks to and the person is still lifting off hands giving praise. It is a good thing to give God thanks, he says. Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Allelujah. Father, we thank you for tonight. We thank you for your faithfulness. Bless our hearts tonight in Jesus' name. Let me request very quickly that you woke up to ten people, give them a big handshake a big hog, and say this is the Lord's doing. Go ahead, PROFESSI over someone, this is the Lord's doing.

And we're standing here only because you made away. Give Jesus a big hand trap and please you may be seated, gloriously seated in Jesus' name, We pray on behalf of Jesus himself. I welcome you to our final service for twenty twenty four yere in Zaria, celebrating the goodness of God, the year of exceeding great rewards. Alleluiah, blessed be the name of the Lord. It is a beautiful thing to see the end of things. God is Alpha, his omega. When he starts and he finishes, it is beautiful. No one that the Bible says better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof allelujah. And we're grateful to God for life, for strength, for grace, for wisdom, for the power. Of his word. And the Lord bless us in Jesus' name, Alleluiah. Blessed be the name of the Lord. Second Timothy, Chapter three, read sixteen and nineteen. Final services are dedicated to charging our hearts, making us appreciate the doings of God from the start of the year until the final service, and then positioning us for a prosperous end of year, prosperous transition into the new year. And so tonight I'm giving a charge called instructions in righteousness. This is a end of year charge, instructions in righteousness. The Bible says all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and that scripture is profitable for the following number one doctrine, two, reprove, three correction, and then for instruction in righteousness verse seventeen, to the end that the Man of God may be mature, entire thoroughly furnished onto all good works. Instructions are profitable. Instructions are profitable, Allelujah. The degree to which you will fly high in life is dependent on the degree to which you embrace instructions. Proverbs, Chapter nine and verse nine, very profound. Scription nine and verse nine. Proverbs, it says, give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser. Teach a just man, and he will increase in learning. I read that again. Give instructions to a wise man, a man who is already wise, but on account of instruction, that man will become wiser. Then it says, teach a just or a righteous man, and he will increase in learning. Instructions, Guide instructions, preserve instructions. Establish. Everywhere you find instructions, alongside the fortitude for adherence, you will find guidance. You will find preservation. Of you will find establishment. The Bible says, the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. It says, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. My son, he says, pay attention to my words. Incline your ears to my sayings. Do not let them depart from out of your heart. Keep them in the midst of your mouth or heart. It says. They are alive to those who find them, and health to their flesh. And so I'm going to be giving us a charge in righteousness. And I pray that you obtain grace to adhere to this. These instructions in righteousness have been designed by the wisdom of God to help us maximize our moments. Because you see, there's something that togetherness does to the believer. It says, I was glad when they said, unto me, let us go to the house of the Lord, not let me go, let us. The corporate anointing and the corporate gathering of believers is all the way profitable. It helped you to sustain your kingdom values. It helps you to be encouraged. The Bible says two are better than one. If one falls, the other can lift one, or war to him that is alone when he falls. And so the gathering of believers provides ample opportunity for the weak to be strengthened, for the strong to remain strengthened, and so on and so forth. And when we have to dispass, even if it's for a moment, it matters that we receive instructions in righteousness that help us to continue and to preserve the momentum that we have built as a result of our togetherness. Let me run six instructions very quickly in righteousness that will help us number one. The first instruction for you as we prepare to wrap up is remain ever conscious. Of who you are in Christ. My first charge. You want to maximize your moments and transit with galancy and honor into twenty twenty five, you must remain theack conscious of who you are in Christ. Please look up. We live in a world where the pressure continues to increase over all kinds of platforms helping believers to define and redefine identity, especially younger people. There is a demography that is under attack. There is a psychological attack over our young people because we have all kinds of platforms attempting to define masculinity, to define feminism, to define prosperity, to define. Whatever it is. And in the midst of this maze of options, suggestions that are coming from social media, coming from models that are not Kingdom compliant. Sometimes it's important to remind us to stand fast in that which the world of God already says that you are. The first problem manfaced in the garden of Eden. Are we together? Was an information coming to his ears that did not come from the mouth of the Lord. The Bible says man shall leave and shall not live by bread alone. Matthew four four. But by every word that proceeded out of the mouth of God. When Satan came to Jesus, he said, if you are the son of God, you are truly the son of God, prove it by turning stone to bread. Matthew chapter four and verse three. He met Jesus and challenged him, if you are the son of God, turn this stone. And yet the Bible says that he was declared to be the son of God with power even by the spirit of holiness. And here Satan was challenging his identity and make him to submit to a proof that was unnecessary. We live in a world where people try to define relevance by several parameters, and sometimes my heart is saddened as I see people fall to this pressure of identity crisis. You must learn to remain ever conscious. Of who you are in Christ. If you do not know who you are in Christ, you will become anything and everything depending. On whose lens you are looking at. There are people who interpret spiritual vibrancy and seriousness as a waste of your time, energy, and effort, and you must be aware of wearing the google of such people, because you will see life from a way that is very, very negative, and you will leave something that is noble and get into something that is not noble at all, because you are trying to prove a point. We have people joining all kinds of clubs and societies under pressure because those societies have defined masculinity. We have people who have rejected the dignity of growth because we live in a sociological context where if you cannot show designers and shoes and a great whatever it is, it means you are not succeeding. And sometimes the Bible says, in fact, they comparing themselves with themselves are not wise. Many people have left a path of nobility and grace and honor, and they followed shadows, mundane things, all in an attempt to live a meaningful life. It matters to know who you are. That you know who you are and stand first with that definition. If for anything, it's important to learn that what is outside you does not define who you are. What is outside you. If one ny right is added to your account, it does not necessarily increase your value. It only increases your potential for efficiency. Are we together now? It's important for you to know you are wonderfully and fearfully made. You believe that, Say amen, and don't let some ignorant person who has no knowledge of your history nor your future to badge into your life and want to interrupt your confidence with its ignorance. Now you must stand fast in that liberty. If he says you are blessed, you repeat after him and say, I am blessed. If he says you are seated with Christ in heavenly places, your response is I agree? Amen? Let it be. If it says you have the mind of Christ, what becomes your response, I have the mind of Christ. Are we together? If he says favor surrounds you like a shield homologial, you confess. Let the redeemed of the Lord say so you agree with him? Any evidence around you or not does not matter. The Bible says, while we look not at the things that are seen, we look not at the things that are seen, but the things that are unseen. We still here. It says, for the things that. Are seen are temporal, but the things that are on sen at eternal. For our light afflictions, which is, but for a moment, it work at in us a greater and weightier eternal glory. Refuse to conform to a mold, a definition, and a mindset. You are already successful. A we together, Yes, you are successful because of the price that was paid on your head, that Jesus gave his blood. Literally, that was what purchased redemption for you. There's nothing nobler you can get that becomes greater than that. I know who I am, and I believe what God has said concerning me. A we together, Yeah, resist the pressure. Oh where is your car? Where is your designer cloth? Where is your diesel? You're just coming home? And sometimes you see because the process of the spirit takes longer time than the way of the canal man, listen carefully and learn zaria the process of the spirit, usually because you see, in working with God, how you become is great than what you get at the end. Literally, the path where you're becoming, your transformation is greater than what you obtain. In fact, it is the transformation that preserves whatever comes to you. So usually the process is a bit longer than the path of the canal man. And if you are not educated so to know, you will become discouraged and it to look like God is not faithful in your life. When you compare yourselves with others, maybe classmates, maybe colleagues, maybe contemporaries, and maybe even those who came after you. Sometimes you can. Feel discouraged further. It's two years after school now, no job. Are we together? It's this and that and that. This is the holiday period, Christmas is coming, and there's nothing in my account. And sometimes you feel like you're a failure. No, you must stand confident in that which God has made you in Christ. The confidence of the believer is not in your achieve it's not in your acquisitions, it's not in whatever it is. Our confidence in this kingdom is our knowledge of God and the fact that He loves us. The investment of his love and his life in our spirits is the foundation of our confidence. Let not the wise man, the Bible says, glory in his wisdom. Let not the mighty man glory in his might. Let not the rich man glory in his riches, the Bible says, But let him that glory gloriate in this, that he understand that and know with me. Jeremiah chapter nine. You read twenty two to twenty three thereabout. If you do not know anything about yourself. Know this that you are a child of God. You are a child of God. Behold what manner of love the Father has bested upon us that we be called the children or sons of God. It says, now are we the sons of God? And it does not yet appear what we should. I'll be like we are being born of this incorruptible seed of the world of God. You know what that means. How many of you have seen children at the point where they were giving birth to Sometimes you look at the father, they don't even look like him. You look like the mother, they don't look like him, And truly they're the children. You just give them time to grow. You're wondering where did this child come from? But as he grows, something begins to happen. Most times you can see that the fashion of the baby's countenance begins to assume in more than you're ah, okay, I'm seeing the mother's face. Now, I'm seeing the father's face. Now. This is what is happening with your destiny. It does not yet appear. The prosperity that befeits the honor of kings and sons in the. Kingdom is yet to speak. The wisdom may be yet to manifest, The favor may be yet to manifest. But the fact that it's not yet. Visible does not mean that it's not in you, the incorruptible seed. You believe me so far, say amen so. Charge number one. Remain ever conscious of who you are, Ever conscious of who you are. I'm a child of God. Not because of more money or less money in my bank account. I'm a child of God, not because of a job or no job. Not because business is doing well or ministry doing well. I am a child of God. Nothing added. Everything that is added only gives. It's an added advantage. The price has been paid in full. I am part of Christ by his spirit, joined to Him by his spirit. Allelujah. Charge number two the second charge that I'll give you tonight. Are you ready? And show the fire on your prayer altar keeps burning. You must ensure that the fire on your prayer altar keeps burning. Remain consistent in prayer. In other words, and show that the fire on your altar keep burning Leviticals Chapter six, twelve and thirteen. And show the Bible says, if you are the children of Abraham, Jesus was speaking to them. He say, you will do the works of Abraham. So if you say you are a child of God. You must engage with the principles that are in keeping with those who are sons of light. And the fire upon the altar, it says verse twelve, shall be burning in it. It shall not be put out, and the priest shall burn would on it every morning, shout every morning the devil didn't hear you say, every morning, and lay the bond offering in order upon it, and he shall burn thereof the fat and the peace offering. Verse thirteen. The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar. It shall never go out. Allelujah, En show that the fire on your prayer altar keeps burning. One of the advantage of church and a spiritual family is that they help sustain the discipline that maintains spirituality. If you're a member of prayer department, you know, for instance, that on Tuesdays are your prayer time. Sometimes you may be weak, and if honor assisted, your prayer life may go down. But because of the. Discipline that comes with family are we together, they are able to help to prime your consistency. But now when you are alone, it will. Take grace from God to still maintain the ritual that produces power. Even when not supervised. So you must ensure by grace that the fire on your prayer altar remains consistent. Where a house of prayer, this ministry was founded upon prayer, it remains so. First the Salonians five seventeen, he says, pray without season. Look eighteen and verse one. He spake a parable to the end that men ought always to pray and not to faint. Say a time in the name of Jesus. Shout like you are alive saying the name of Jesus. I obtain grace to be and remain prayer for one more time. I obtain grace to be and to remain prayer for I've done many teachings on prayer. Please make reference to them when you do not pray. Many things go wrong in your life. Many things go wrong. Many things go wrong in your life. Are we together? Number three? The third charge that I live with you tonight is that you most remain committed to continuous learning. You most remain committed to continuous learning. A break does not mean an end to your pursuit for knowledge. And you know that when we talk of learning in this house, learning is twofold. First the word of God, and then number two, the relevant information around your fields of end DEVL. So remain committed to continuous learning. First and foremost and greatest the Word of God. Learning the Word of God, and that from a child noo hast known the Holy Scripture which is able to make you wise onto salvation. All scripture is profitable, allelujah. Remain committed to continuous learning, learning the Word of God, and then learning relievant information. Around your field of ENDEVL. I'm reminded of First Corinthians, Chapter eight and verse two, beautiful scripture that has been instructive to my life. It says, if any man think that he knowed anything, he knoweth nothing. Yet as he ought to know a wise man, the Bible says, proverhaps ninety nine or so. Will increase in learning, increase in learning, increase in learning, increase in learning, increase in learning. Wise people increase in learning. Foolish people believe they know everything, and they plot too at a rem that only commands mediocrity. Remain committed read books. If I were you, I would take the time to arrange relevant teachings as I've been taught in this house, particularly this year. Fish out the ones that concern the areas not working. How do you know the areas you need to improve on by the level of light or the presence of darkness in that area. If you suffered a great blow health wise this year, it's an opportunity for you to take the time get the relevant teachings that attend to the matters of your health and vitality. Are we together? If say, for instance, your finances was not the best this year, you struggled seriously this year, why don't you fish out teachings that attend to those issues. There is it intelligence in learning. You don't learn at random. The reason why you learn constructively, or the reason why your knowledge academic knowledge is profitable is not only because the knowledge is available, is because it is arranged in a way that builds your understanding methodically and constructively. Imagine a student who starts his first lecture attending a five hundred level course. Then he comes back to a hundred level the next day, then three hundred level, then two hundred level, then postgraduate away together, then back to hundred level. That person is learning, but his learning will almost be useless because it's not methodically arranged a we together. It is line upon line precept upon precept. No matter how brilliant you are, they will not teach you a five hundred level course. In one hundred level. You will be a smart, intelligent, exceptional hundred level student. But you will finish. Then your excit scales you to the next level, and that's how you grow. Allelujah. Many believers have knowledge, but their knowledge is useless to them because it was not arranged in a way that becomes a weapon of victory. How many of you have been around an army day when we have a lot of military people here, and sometimes when the military people are doing their parades, one of the things they do is they get some officials who try to couple their guns their weapons very fast, as fast as they can, and so you will see weapons scattered in pieces as those shattered. But it's just there in fragments. And yet it can be coupled together to become a gun that can protect an individual. But not when it is uncoupled, are we together. The knowledge from Scripture is like that pieces of those things, like the various bones in the valley of Ezekiel. It takes wisdom, it takes guidance, it takes the ministry, the teaching priests to help you to cause born to be joined to his borone. They are all bones, and they're in the human body. But if you take the hip bone and try to connect it with the skull, you see you are wasting your time. You will destroy something that has value it. Identifying the bone that makes the army is not enough. There must be a system of causing bone to be joined to his bone. Allelujah, Wisdom upon wisdom, wisdom upon wisdom. If there is no synergy an arrangement of truth, you will find out that the truth you learn and know will conflict themselves, and at the end of it, it will leave you with confusion. And all that confusion would have come from the Bible. So let me charge you in righteousness. Get relevant teachings and stay with them. Buy books, put together versus of scripture. Thanks to technology, you almost don't need to do anything. Scriptures on healing enter and you find as many there are people who have already done the work for you, and you search one by one and feed your spirit with the determination of a winner. Be given to continuous learning. We live in a world today where competence. Has great rewards. There is no space for mediocres again, no space, no space. You know how you come to a place and they say there's no vacancy. That's it. Have you ever come to a building, a restaurant or a bank, you are still seeing people inside, and there's an inscription no vacancy, meaning for whatever reason, because you are an outsider, usually to incompetence, there's no space for you. But the Bible says, the gift of a man, and I told you that that gift is not just the raw and refined gift. When you deploy yourself to a level of competence and excellence, there will always be space for you in life and praying by discharge that you're in life and destiny, no one will take that place. In the name of Jesus, may your gift shift left and right and keep a space for you, a space in contestable, a space that remains yours in righteousness, the Bible says, And Isaac, I believe dog a well, the Philistines covered it. He dog another one. They covered it, and he dog another one, and they left it. And he called it rao both. He says, the Lord himself has given me my place. Everybody has a place in destiny away together. But if you do not contend in righteousness, you will not find your place. They committed to continuous learning. Learning takes humility. It takes an acknowledgement that you can know better than you already know. Don't celebrate mediocrity away together. It is often said, if you are the best among the people around you, then you're a mediocre. If you are the best among the people around you, you need to scale your standard. Bible allows us to provoke one another onto godliness. Are we together? Charge number four? Very quickly? My intention is for us to pray and then will worship God. So we're going to pray. And when we pray, or let me do it this way. Once I'm done, will have my worship. People less prepare will do five or ten minutes of quality praise, quality, serious praise onto God. Are we together? And once we celebrate the Lord, I will come back again and speak over your life. Don't dance and leave the remaining part of your reward. Most people, once they start dancing, it's as if they remove a part of their lives. So praise doesn't mean the end of It's part of the service. Praise Him with understanding, Allelujah, We're still here. So number four, let me give you the fourth charge, who is learning. Number four, remain active in the business of soul waning and discipleship. Remain active in the business or the ministry of soul wanning and discipleship. This one has no break. You must remain active. You have learned enough for you to be an effective soul winner. You have learned enough for you to be able to sow the seed of transformation through discipleship in someone's life, maybe your spouse, maybe your relatives, maybe someone in your family. Especially for those of us who do not have many people in our family, born again, many people in a family who love the Lord first Imoti Chapter two, from verse one to four Popular Scripture, remain active in the business or ministry of soul winning and discipleship. I exhost therefore that first of all supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving off things be made for all men. Verse two, for kings and for all that are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and a peaceable life in all. Goldliness and honesty. The's three. The's three, it says, for this is good and acceptable in the sight of God, our Savior, what does that save your want? Verse four, the Bible says, who will have all men? How many men? All men, including your own saved ones, the people in your community, who will have all men to be saved and to come onto the knowledge of the truth. God wants all men to be saved, and where they are already saved Like the disciples in Acts chapter nineteen, from verse one to four, they were already saved, but they needed to be discipled into righteousness. Danielle Chapter twelve and the Street beautiful scripture. The Bible says that they that be wise shall be as the firmament, the brightness of the firmament, and day that turn many, not few, to righteousness as the stars even forevermore. You must remain. Active and committed to the business or ministry of soul winning and discipleship. You know what that means. Don't waste this one month and watch people you know need Jesus, perhaps your loved ones. You can sow that seed and talk to them about Jesus. You can use your social media space and influence positively. Away together now and don't waste the influence. Let somebody know Jesus because of your life. And once you are a sole winner. God will always create the opportunity, because the Spirit of God is called the Lord of the Harvest. Away together, and once you make yourself an available laborer in the vineyard away together, God will orchestrac events that will help you to talk to people about Jesus. The campaign for winning souls is not a call to blind argument, arguing and arguing and trying to defend no, no, no, no, no. Yours is to communicate the truth of the Gospel and allow the Spirit of God to do the work of conviction. And then when you find. People who are already safe, you'll be surprised. Some of you. As you go home, God will empower you, as shy as you are, to organize a one day program. They pray for one hour and they sit down and you teach them what you call little You will be surprised. For the first time, you will see the grace of God at work in your life. For the first time you will see His wisdom communicated. It may even be a question and answer session. Put together a few friends in stead of wasting your time away, allow them to ask you a few questions, and as best as you know, that will be the first time, you will see the wisdom of the just at work in you away together, and at the end of it, they will give you a new name, a new name that will force you to keep loving God. They will call you Pastor, and by that name, you know what it means. Every time there's trouble, you become the reference. You have found your way to the throne. Allelujah for some of you. As you open up yourself to win souls and to lead many to Jesus, for the first time, you will see the manifestation of the power of God in your life. You get somewhere and they'll tell you someone is sick, and you, who would have run away, the spirit of boldness will rest upon you and you say, if I perish, I perish this man you're holding onto this crutch, Lord, I don't care if I'm embarrassed, let it happen. And for the first time you will tell the person stand up and walk and you'll be work. You will think he's lying, and the person says, I've been healed in two days. They will say there's a small crusade somewhere. We don't know if you can help us round up. Aha. You get there and you see a replica of what you see in this house. That's when you really believe that you have become a partaker of disgrace. You see, there are many ways God encourage people, But you don't need power if you don't love souls. You don't need power if you don't love souls. The same way the Bible warns to not eat if you would not work. If you keep eating, and you keep eating, and you keep eating and you don't work, that energy is going to turn into fats and become a load and a luggage to your own body away together. So many people like importation. They like shouting, they like falling, they like whatever it is. Any man of God dey see, even if you don't put you know, there are times that people hold my hands by themselves and put it on their heads, and I say, how do you force my hand to anoint you supposed to come from my heart? But they don't care. And you would think, because that you would think, with that hunger, they will run to one win souls. I submit to you that one of the reasons why we do not see the power of God as much as it was in the sixties, seventies and eighties is because we do not have their passion. We have greater charismatism than them, but we do not have their passion for souls and praying for someone in the name of Jesus, the passion for souls, to see them saved and to see lives transformed. May God release it upon you and let me challenge everyone, both children and our elderly people, when it has to do with the ministry of the spirit. There are no age limits. The military can have age limits, the civil service can have age limits, sports can have age limits. There are many employment platforms that have age limits. But serving the purpose of God, there are. No age limits. Provided you are alive, you are hungry, you are desperate, and your faith can believe God for great things. God can use your hands, no matter how old or young those hands are. If surrender to Jesus, they can become a great tool to bring a harvest for him. You believe that, say amen. So. Number One, remain. Ever conscious of who you are in Christ, being mindful of your identity. Number Two, you ensure that you maintain a consistent prayer life, that the fire upon your prayer altar remains burning. Three, you must remain committed to continuous learning, the learning of the world of God and the relevant knowledge that makes you competent in your field of end Devol. Number four. Remain active in the business or ministry of soul, wanning and discipleship. Ready for number five Rest rest Restapter two Hundvers two. Do not use the entire time jumping around and just playing rest, because there is a lot to be done for the kingdom. Rest rest. You must learn to rest. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made, and the Bible says he rested on the seventh day. He didn't rest every day. He rested on the seventh day. You may have heard me say it for some of you. Honestly, I don't know if I should tell you to rest or not, because you spent January to November resting. For such people, walk while we're arresting. Walk. Forgive yourself for resting carelessly without walk, but then make sure you get up and walk alle Lujah. If you rest on any day that is not your seventh day, it is not correct. Jesus did not rest on the first day to Eli, second day still to Eli. But when you get to the seven day. For many of us, the seven day is December rest. For those who if you have been seriously serving God, you will like what I'm saying because you would have dissipated energy loving Jesus rest. But if you have been lazy, running away from God like Jonah, doing a lot of things antichrist activities, you know that there's no rest for you. But then rest generally, rest are we learning. I confess to you that visionary people have it very hard to rest, and it's not necessarily if you're not hard working. You think people are just pretending it to show that you're visionary, but it's true. We have twenty four hours, and to a. Visionary man, you can almost beg for more time because by the time you are done doing the things you're doing, time is already gone. And knowing that time from a human standpoint, is an irredeemable product, commodity, the most expensive of what God gave man, second only to his life and the Holy Spirit, time are we together. It is only in Christ and by the Spirit that we can redeem time. Naturally speaking, when time goes, it's gone. Past is past. So sometimes when you know that the king's business requires haste, necessity becomes laid upon you to get up and make the most of your life. But then it is important to rest. When you rest, you refresh. Remember Jesus, he was on his way to the other side, and he quickly cashed in on that opportunity to rest. I don't know what kind of sleep Jesus was sleeping. That the boat was shaking left, right and center, and he did not wake up. That sounds like real rest. Allelujah. There are some of you. When you lie down to sleep, the worries in life are like hands that wake you up. You never can sleep for good twenty minutes concerns. In the name of Jesus, I speak to you. May my God give you rest. May my God give you rest. And if it is a medical condition, I rebuke that spirit right now by the power that raised Christ from the dead. Anyone here who lies down to sleep, the sleep that not the sleep of death, the sleep that rejuvenates your body. And Satan will not allow you sleep, and worry will not allow you sleep. Let me profess sign to you anything that will not allow you sleep. I decree and declare may be banished from your life. Allelujah. It's good to work hard, It's good to be diligent, but when it is time to rest, rest Allelujah. Prays the name of the Lord, and I pray for everyone. If you lie down to sleep in the name of Jesus, you must wake up every spirit that will want to transit your sleep to an untimely death. I speak over your life in Jesus' name. You will lay it down and by morning you will wake up. I'm speaking to a believer. You will lie down and by morning you will wake up. Allelujah. You hear stories of people who just went to sleep and that's the end of it. Took a deep breath somewhere in the middle of the sleep, and that was it. The Psalmi said, I lay me down and I slept. I like the other party said, I wait for God sustained me. The Lord sustained me. Rest. Heads of department, rest workers, rest, Allelujah, everyone, rest. Make sure you take the time to rest. I don't know what rest means to you, but let it. For some rest just means shut down from every activity and just allow your mind to reboot. Rest for someone means catch up for the months of not sleeping well. Rest. Rest for somebody means just ensure that your health is intact. I'm a strong advocate. I taught you here last year. I'm a strong advocate of doing a proper medical checkup at least once a year. God at the days where the church allows the devil to cheat them with foolishness, Allelujah, we are wise. There is wisdom, and it is not unspiritual to go to the hospital for a medical checkup. Just like you. I don't like injections, just like you. I don't like injections, but if that is a requirement for health and vitality, you better allow them draw your blood and find out what is wrong or right with you, so that you even know how to pray. You understand, and don't claim and say I am healed. Why are you afraid? Then? Because and fear does not go hand in hand praise the name of the Lord. Medical science will teach us that there are several people whose diseases, if diagnosed early, would have been able to be treated. Most people are very careless with their health. I was once like that, and it was not intentional, and I made up my mind that under my watch. I will charge people to be wholesome. You're growing spiritually, You're growing mentally every other aspect and that includes your health. So rest for you can be a time to just do a medical check up, check your BP, check your heart, check everything that pounding headache that has no definition, find out what is going on. And doctors have been empowered by God to help you. Oh, you need to do this. Maybe add a few supplements, add vitamins, add this. The journey is fair. Don't die before your time. There are some of you. If you would die now is wickedness, you know, because they are destinies connected to you. There are graces that will only find God to. Your being alive. Allelujah. Rest number six the sixth, and this will be the final charge, an instruction for us tonight. Remain ever joyful, Remain ever joyful. These are instructions in righteousness to help you maximize your time. Remain ever joyful. Protect your joy and your peace. Protect your joy and your peace. Philippians, chapter four and verse four. Remain ever joyful, it says, rejoicing the Lord allway and again, I say, emphasizing rejoice. Someone say I rejoice, shouting say I rejoice, I rejoice. Remain ever joyful. We're living in a world where you can see a young man of twenty two, and you can almost mistaken that he's fifty because of anger, sadness. Are we together? Good money? It doesn't add a job, It doesn't add anything. The Bible says, a merry heart, do word good. Like medicine, you need to see a doctor treating a patient. The doctor treats the patient with audacity, And the Bible says, when you rejoice, it's like you went to the hospital and they gave you treatment. Are we together? Protect your joy? This world is a very funny place. There are people who get angry jo just because you are happy. What is all this laughter about. No, no, no, no, no, no no. Everybody's suffering is relative. It is me and my God. Don't transfer your pain, don't transfer your prostration. I can intercede with you, I can agree with you. But as for me, I've made up my mind that no matter what happens, I rejoice against her. Rejoice, rejoice. I like the testimony of the dear lady who came here. She had seen the finger of God, and she had a covenant with God that she would come and say that this is what God has done. I still have my. Expectations and my desires, but let him know that I kept my part of the covenant. You know, there are most people if you listen to their lamentations, you will think God has never done anything good in their lives. Okay, so why this anger? I've been trusting God for this. Can you imagine God gave me three girls? What is there to give me a boy? And you're watching the person whose gy is this my car? Whose house is this my house? Who is the director of this firm? It's me whose child is doing well on scholarship? My child, this beautiful cloth belongs to me. And the person does not think that is enough reason to thank him. Let me tell you this. I have visited many people at the hospital and have learned wisdom by watching people in the hospital and see many dead bodies. If you are alive, the fact that you are alive is enough reason to be thankful, the fact that you are alive. When you can get sick to a point where the only way you respond is to blink your eyes at the doctors. Should we go? Now? You have to bling to say. Yes, or blink twice to say no. Can you imagine that. No part of your body can move again, and yet the person can remain here. For the next ten years. It will die and it will not recover. And yet you can jump around and celebrate the goodness of God. Like in a few minutes, you're going to be rejoicing over the goodness of God. Let me tell you this. I know that there are many expectations that you have. Some of you, your expectations were not fully met this year. Some of you even had all kinds of disappointments. But protect your joy, shout it against it. I rejoice, no job yet, but I am alive. I rejoice, no child yet, but I still love Jesus. Are we together now? My finances was not the best yet, but I thank God I taught by now. I would have left Zaria, maybe to go to. UK London, gone to a bucha, but that I'm still here and standing, say I rejoice. When people are complaining, don't join them. Listen. Let me tell you this, by the message of God, I don't teach irresponsible Christianity, but you will never find me standing to shout and complain. Complainers are usually usually people who are not thoughtful, because if you take time to think of the goodness of God, you will be too grateful and need to translate to joy. Psychologists teach us that focus is responsible for feelings. What you focus on determines how you feel. Allelujah. You can be feeling bad right now. As soon as you see an alert, even if it's a mistake, because you focused on it, Suddenly you glow and you now see that. Ah, this is wonderful. One hundred narra just came in, Richard Card. Focus creates feeling. So every time you feel downcast my soul, why are down cast? Down? You rejoice in the Lord. You rejoice in the Lord and some who have been like job this year. You can still prophesy. Though he slay me, Yet will I trust him? I'm still battling a medical condition. But in the name of Jesus, I rejoice. The devil will not see my tears again. He's seeing enough of my tears. It will be shouts of joy and victory, because the Bible says it will never depart from the tent of the righteous. Shouted one more time. Here, rejoice. Joy is very powerful. Low it really is. It really is. Joy is of the Holy Ghost. And for the believer when you rejoice. Many times it doesn't make sense because own. Believers always rejoice or are happy when something happens, no matter how transient. They want to see something. They respond to physical impulses. But there are times we rejoice in hope as a sign of faith. Nothing has appeared, but there is a note of victory in your spirit. Let me pray for someone. The year is still not ended. Honestly, I pray for you by the power that raised Christ from the dead. Let the remaining days that make for the end of twenty twenty four be days of strange miracles, strange miracles, strange manifestations of His power. In the name of Jesus, Look at me. If God blesses you on the totieth, is not twenty twenty four. Still, it's none of my business whether it comes now or tot yeth. Blessing is blessing away together and a land that enters your phone. Totty first, it's till twenty twenty four. I pray for you again in the name that is above all names. May my God arise as a mighty god and cost you to laugh. Sit down for someone. Let me Prophessy Genesis twenty one hundreds six. Sarah laughed, and this is what she said, give it to ards media, and God had made me to laugh. And all that here, all that here will laugh with me, the kind of testimony that will make people hear and laugh. In the name of Jesus Christ. May my God give it to you for someone. Maybe God will give you land you did not buy in the name of Jesus Christ for someone. Whilst you are here, God is instructing and obedient son and daughter of the Kingdom to do something that will bring joy and laughter to your life. Allelujah, Praise the name of the Lord. So this is my change to you. Remain ever joyful, Please be seated. Protect your peace. One way to protect your peace is to run away from trouble. Run away from trouble. You need to be wise. Some of you see people just gother that you don't know what it is. You just go there and you find out that they're arresting people. Be wise, Sons of the Kingdom. Are not foolish people. Be wise? Are we together? Be wise? The wisdom of God is at working you. But you must protect your peace. There are people who are trouble makers. If they knock your door, wave them from inside. Remember the story in Matthew chapter seven, somebody knocked and said, friend, open the door for me. Say you're a troublemaker, you're a man of approach. I am lying down the bed with my children. Don't interrupt my peace. I believe the guy had to change his attitude for the friend to come and open the door. He said, this noise you are bringing to my house. I'm already enjoying peace. If your friend came to visit you in the night and you are knocking my door, realize it's late and you have to show some courtesy. Don't bang my door. Be cautious. My children are sleeping. There are times you should never open the door for trouble makers. Help them from afar away together. Don't distract my spirit, don't distract my focus. Ah have you had? They said, twenty twenty five is going to be a bad yell? Where's what state are you from? And you just escort the person gently to your door and immediately you close it. You say every word that does not proceed from the Bible, from the world of God, I cancel it. I define my possibilities. My twenty twenty five is already a glorious year. And the reason why I know this is because my Bible, not my nation, my Bible not my policies, my Bible not just my leaders, as much as I respect them. My Bible says the path of Joshua Selman is as a shining light. Am I speaking just about myself? The path of Koinonia is as a shining light that shines brighter and brighter. So if you ask me how will twenty twenty five be, I will tell you blessed, glorious? Why because God will increase my greatness and you will comfort me on every side. Why because God will give me rest round about? Do you believe that? And that anybody who is looking for your downfall should be ready to get hold on that project. Because as for you, you are here for a long time, rejoicing in the Lord, making progress in the Lord. In the name of Jesus. Anyone who predicts that because of where you come from, usually those people don't live long. They may be right based on history, But you are being called out of every tribe. And every tongue and every nation. In the name of Jesus, I decree and declare over you. You will never be a victim of situation, since circumstances the word of God defines your possibilities. Joy, allelujah, my watship team, Are you ready? I'm going to give you people the next ten minutes. I will step down, give us quality revelation based praise, and then I will come up here and then we'll speak. After that, will pray and I'll minister to you God bless you. Go ahead.

Everything that is in prophecy for my destiny and is yet to be made manifest. I cry, onto you bring completion, crown my year with goodness. Open your mouth and pray seriously. Shannik perakatska le grandaggar baratus here raptus calicran, take a baratus here Genesis twenty one and verse one. We're praying.

Father, when you speak, your word comes to pass. There are things you have told me by prophecy. There are things you have told me by your word that I yet to be made manifest. I place a demand by faith, Go ahead and pray. I place the demand. I place a demand. I place a demand. I place a demand. When Mary and Martha met Jesus at the tomb of Lazarus, they said, Master, if you were here, Lazarus would not have died. He said, But even now, even now, even now, come on, someone pray, someone pray. Let it be from the depth of your heart. Help that woman. Please, someone pray in the name of Jesus.

Even now I believe you shut like a talk. Don't be tired. You are praying. You're placing a demand even now, even now, in the name of Jesus, even now, by the power of the Holy Spirit. Allelujah, listen, let me tell you the truth. One thing I know about God is that what had to shame, God can arise and bail you out. Let me show you a scripture where still praying acts Chapter twelve. I'd like you to see the timing of Teitter's. Deliverance, not just that he was delivered. Let's go to verse four. The Bible says he caught he decided to vex certain of the Jews they caught James, and James was beheaded, and the Bible says, when he saw that it pleased the juice, he proceeded further to apprehend Peter. And then verse four, when he had apprehended him, listen and put him in prison. The Bible says, he was covered with four cortagnons of soldiers, and so on and so forth. Verse five is where the lesson is. He says Peter was kept in prison and prayer was made without season of the church on to God for him. Verse six. Now what's what happened, the Bible says, And when Herold would have would have brought him forth the same night. That means by the next day Peter was going to die that same night, that same night, no wonder, the Bible says, satisfy me early. There is timing to deliverance. If it does not come on time, something can happen to you. If deliverance came over James, it would be too late. He had been beheaded. I'd like you to pray and say, Lord, let there be speedy intervention, speedy intervention. Open your mouth and pray speedy intervention. Leave the areas of your life and cry for speedy intervention. Shake parus kati la ca parantos kias speedy intervention. Someone is praying speedy intervention. Hey, prah, take a paratos yat Father, visit me by your power. Rac cataprand lack a paratos shut a leaven lackers. Cra ct ever lock a barras. Apra toos scotti latakavaras sabra takados Allelujah. There's a scripture in my heart. I was just trying to pull it out. Let's try Psalm eighty six, verse seventeen, eighty six, verse seventeen. I just felt steady in my spirit to share that scripture with someone. I like us to read it as loud as you can want to read. Show me a token for good. That day which hates me shall see it and be ashamed because down Lord has opened me and comforted me. You're going to pray. Lord, show me a sign. There are people waiting for it to be said God did not help him. There are people waiting for it to be saying I said this about this family. Open your mouth and say, Lord, show me a sign. Let here be a token in my life. Go ahead and pray, pray seriously, show me a token. Let the workers of evil find a reason to be a shame over my life and over my family. Take a paratos cutter brandatabash. Go ahead and pray, sa pray, take ata, show me a sign. Let you have be a sign in your family. Let you have be a sign over your finances. Let you be a sign. Char lea, allelujah, allelujah. Some of you have honestly labeled through this year, but you have not seen commensurate reward to honor your label. It's a master. We have toiled all night. This is not an issue of laziness. They did their best, but it just did not work. Someone is going to cry, messy, Lord, messy. I've done all I know to do as far as my family is concerned. My family is concerned. I tended all the applications everywhere, So it's not an issue of laziness. Lord, what I cannot do, do for me, he said, when my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to a rock that is higher than I. Open your mountain. Pray, open your mountain. Pray by your messy intervein for me, by your messy show up for my finances, by your messy show up for my children, show up for my career. Please make sure your praying. Show up in the name of Jesus. Let my eyes behold your salvation before the year is ended. On this final night, I still cry, show me your salvation, Show me your salvation. Show me your salvation. Show me your salvation. Show me your salvation. The sickness will not kill me. Show me your salvation. The financial situation will not swallow me up. Show me your salvation. Allelujah. Two more prayer points. I will always need you to pray that God will position strategic men. I told you that your life goes forward at the frequency of those who agreed to stand with you and agree to support you away together. Look at the testimony of the dear lady who came here, had gotten her admission, had gotten everything, but because there was no scholarship, in other words, no support, she became grounded. As though she were lazy. Men are very important in the equation of your destiny. Men do not only destroy. They can be used by God to build. John chapter five and verse seven. How come you are in this situation? The Lord asks a man at Bethesda, and he said, I have no man. I have no man, I have knowledge but I have no man. There are many gifted people today, if only they had one man, one helper, someone to look at this family, someone to look at this daughter, to look at this son, to look at someone. I've had the privilege, by the mercy of God, to show help and support with a few people, and I have seen how their lives have accelerated at the instance of help. I like you to pray, Father, everywhere my helpers, ah by the messes of God, may their gravitate towards my destiny. Before this year is ended. Open your mouth and pray and minute from your heart. There are men send by God to make the journey easier for you. There are men and women send by God to make the journey possible for you. There are men and women sent by God. Help ers of the war. Burden bear us, help us of the war, financial help us, counsel us, advise us, intercessorus. People who believe in you, believe in your life, believe in your growth, believe in your vision, and are willing to invest your resources, invest your credibility to see that you do not try. That they make a covenant with themselves that on their their watch you will not cry under your watch. You will not see shame. Under your watch, you will not go down shas lepra paratos lacash in Jesus' name, We pray in Jesus' name. We pray in Jesus' name. We pray. You are going to pray for the grace for honor. Honor is transferrable. Honor is the cure for shame. Let me define honor for you. Honor means to be perceived as touching your true wolf and to be rewarded to match your sacrifice. If honor is not on your life, you will be despised. Men will not perceive you as touching your true wolf and your sacrifice. The Bible says a prophet is not without honor, but there is a certain condition where a prophet can be despised. There are many of you. The hand of God is upon your life. There are many of you. You are gifted to an extent that with the level of refinement you have done to your giftings, the nations help that lady please. The nation should be placing a demand upon your life. But when the graceful honor is not there, you will be despised. A great worshiper, But nobody will hear your voice and annointed man, but nobody will place a demand away Together, Now I have seen the benefits of honor. It says you shall take Joshua, the son of nol In whom is the spirit away. Together you shall lay your hands upon him. He say, you shall take some of your honor and transfer to him, so that the nation of Israel will happen to him. Loyalty is a function of honor. Many of you are gifted, but nobody can place that demand upon your life. Are we together? Now you are going to cry find out to night, disgraceful honor. Let me not go back home in shame. Let me not go now that your heart is right, God is not afraid of placing honor upon you. Pray it is a cure for shame to. Be despised by your brethren. It is not a good thing to be despised by people who knew you before. With the spirit of familiarity, they say you and say, I knew him before, we grew up together. I knew her before. But not when the mantle of honor is on your head. Go ahead and pray. Jabez said, Oh, that that would has bless me and enlarge my tent. Let it be well with me. Prayer against shame, Friendkatosh shut attack ta racord, takata Father, place honor upon your people. Someone pray, Let the season of shame come to an end. Reproach come to an end. Let that stigma eat couple, Let that that embargo of reproach on your life, that lack of dishonor upon your head. Why bit away in the place of prayer. Allelujah, allelujah. I've taught you that when God wants to lift a man, he will cause that man to stand in the presence of people who have value for what you carry. It is a terrible thing to be gifted. It is a terrible thing to be anointed. It's a terrible thing to be diligent. But to stand in the presence of people who have no value for what you carry, they will despise you, and you will feel like you have not done much. But happy is the man that has done his due diligence and by messy now becomes elevated to stand in the presence of those who have a recognition of your sacrifice. In one day, you can be placed like Joseph. If ever they knew that it was a prime minister that was in that prison. I'm sore. Many of them will love be for a position and say, please, if you go there, don't forget me. Even the Prime Minister himself, to be knew that he was a great man but did not have capacity, and he was pleading with someone he would rule over and say, please help me, man that is in honor, and know it not. It's like a beast in the field that perished. Are we together? Now? There are some of you with the kind of grace you carry, you should never beg for bread. But it's because you have been around the wrong audience and they keep trivializing what you carry. You have done everything you know to do. And the truth is that those two help you are looking for you. It's just that they don't know is you they are looking for. It would take your grace to connect you and praying for you by the power that raised Chrimes from the dead. In the name of Jesus, and this is from my heart. Any one of you that is already prepared for your season of appearing, your season of visibility, help them. I decree and declare whatever has stopped your helpers has stopped your bless us and your lifters from lifting you. Right now, let this mantle of honor rest on you now, Letty rest on you. Now, Letty rest on you now, Letty rest on you. Now. This is the house of honor. Everything that looks like shame upon your life a mark of darkness. No one in your family has gained visibility, no one has been rewarded for what they carry. I pray for you. May you be the first that God will distinguish in the name of Jesus. I like the story of Jabez, the Bible starts the story with the end, and Jabest not was more blessed, not was more prosperous, not was wiser ja best was more or nore rapel than his brethren. Allelujah, carrying greatness, but despised by ignorant people. Carrying greatness, but despised by people who have no discernment of what you stand for. And praying for you again, the one person who must show up before December the thirty first to help your elevation. By grace from my heart, I pray for you. May you find them, May they find you, May you find them. May they find you. There are many people today in this ministry swimming in honor and glory, not just because of their spiritual sacrifices, but that God positioned them in a way and manner that they can. Let me tell you this, honor is contagious, like a virus. When a person looks at you and sees others showing honor, they perceive you as valuable and then it will spread around. But despise and shame is also transferrable. There is a way someone can see shame on your life and they dissociate with you for their own good. Allelujah. When you find one. Man, just one person, one helper, one person with discernments? Are you not the person who does this? Are you not this great preacher? Are you not this great worshiper? Are you not the one who graduated with first class? What are you still doing here? I pray again, I pray again from my heart. You may not know where they are, but just know that they're here, and in the name of Jesus, by the spirit of Grace, I gravitates them towards your life. Allelujah, prays the name of the Lord. Now, before I make the altar call, I'm going to invite two of our fathers. I just felt stared to give them, even if it's a minute, just to make a declaration over your life. I will invite our father, Pastor Tula and past to a bubakar just to make a declaration as God places in their heart, just for a minute, to speak over your life. And then I'll do the final declaration and we'll be done for the service. Let's all know them as they come. Yeah, thank you that you God, bless you halilujah.

Man, concerning this season, even as you retreat, you would retreat into love, You would retreat into favor in the. Name of Jesus. It's a season. I see the Lord hijacking, taking over everything that belongs to him. Yes, Collection Chapter one, verse twenty. He has to concern everything, even back to himself. Babule say he has settled everything concerning that, even with the blood of Jesus. Aham Saycoba, sayah by learn to see bread you take it by ya say boy Baya, say by yrkay bye bye your gods the Lita by Buddha, say by day bye later come matter this a liquah Yah. I see the fire of his presence contending on your behalf. Yes, the Lord is saying you belong to him. Your family belonged to him, the business all belonged to him. Everything he's taking it back to himself. It has been. Settled already, even by the blood of Jesus. You will not fail. You will not fail. You will not fail in the name of Jesus.

Good news in the morning, good news in the afternoon, good news in the night, good news in the name of Jesus. In the name of Jesus, I pray for you for your finances, particularly that in this season, may God do something to surprise you. May God do something that will bring tears of joy to your eyes. In the name of Jesus. Now I feel steady in my heart to speak over families, not just individuals. Everybody here is connected with family. Every reproach connected to the family you came from. Some of you are already fine, but those connected to you are not fine. I pray for you in the name of Jesus, May the God of vengeance met out vengeance upon evil that is connected to your family. In the name of Jesus, I declared deliverance for your family. I declare favor for your family in the name of Jesus. Where there has been no reason to rejoice in this family, I declare that in this season find a reason to rejoice. May the Lord surprise you such that you rejoice in the name of Jesus. And I declare over everyone here, every spirit that is saying this will be your last service on earth, that you will not return back next year, either by an accident or by a plane crash, or by some demonic thing. I speak to that influence of death be lifted and begne forever. Be lifted and be gone forever. I place a mark upon your head, and I profess I long life. Shout Amen, long life, shout amen, long life. Year me. If there is any family here, you have seen a pattern of untimely death. People die before their time. I decree and declare in the name of Jesus, beginning from you. It ends beginning from you. It ends beginning from you. It ends for families here where you have to beg to eat. No matter how diligent you are, you cannot have the honor of sufficiency. I decree and declare that the season of begging and depending on people helplessly, let it come to an end. The Lord will strengthen you and give you your own person in the name of Jesus, he said, And I will caust you to be exceeding fruitful, and that nations will come out of you, and kings who come out of your loins. Let me pray for you everything that finds fruitfulness, whether biologically, financially, spiritually, nothing multiplies in your hands. That anytime things touch your hand, they die. I pray for you by the power of the Holy Spirit. Enjoy fruitfulness and multiplication. Enjoy fruitfulness and multiplication. Enjoy fruitfulness and multiplication in the name of Jesus. And if there's anyone here with any terminal disease, you are carrying any medical condition right now, known or unknown, I decree and declare. You have heard the word of God.

Part of my charge so you tonight is to remain ever committed to the ministry of soul winning. Let's minimize movement. This is about the most important part of this service tonight. There are thousands of people following across the globe by way of Internet. There are many in this place and all of the overflows you need. Jesus, you are saying, Apostle, I cannot allow coin on your Zaria to end this year without making this decision. Perhaps you're visiting for the first time today, or perhaps you've been here but for some reason you've not been convicted enough to make it right with Jesus. And I'm also giving someone an opportunity who, at one point in your life you remember making this decision, but as it stands now, you cannot say you're in rights standing with Jesus and you need that assurance of salvation. I'm going to be counting one to five. Give us the on of presenting you to Jesus as a trophy, as a gift to say Lord for the sake of these ones we have gathered here tonight. If you need to make that decision, as I count one to five, run leave your seat. Don't wait for anyone to be the first. You are in this place. Boldly make your way and say, Apostle, I really want to make it right. God bless you. I'm seeing them coming, and if you're coming from the overflow, quickly come and stand. Quickly, come and stand. Please guide them on how to stand in the name of Jesus. Let's celebrate them as they come. Let's celebrate them as they come. You need Jesus. Hallelujah, you need Jesus. Please guide the children. If they don't know what they're doing, take them back, make sure they know what they're doing. Hallelujah. You need Jesus. Please make your way quickly. Let's keep clapping as they come, young and old. The Bible says in the day that you hear his voice, hadden not your heart, as they did in the wilderness. One I count now two. Someone is still coming to Jesus. Three, four. Well, soon have a children We soon have a children's department so that we can train the children. Some of them come out for every altar call excitedly. It's just a sign that they love Jesus. A few of them don't really know what they're doing, but they like the idea of Jesus. It's better to stand before Jesus many times than to be outside of his presence. Allelujah. So whether the children know what they're doing or not, they're welcome. But for the adults who know what you are doing, Jesus is still calling you, and do not have in your heart. In fact, I'm inspired by the children. This is what will happen after I pray. Hold on, please, After I pray for those who are standing here, I'm going to request all the children after not now all the children to come and stand. Let's sow that seed of prayer for children.

So I know some of these children have no help whatsoever. In the name of Jesus, beyond the little we are doing in their lives, may help arise for them. You will be presidents, some of you will be governors, some of you will be mighty apostles. And your parents will be alive to see you become. By this prayer, let me speak over anyone trusting God for the fruit of the womb, whether you are here or you are connected, in the name of Jesus, we use these children as a point of contact, and we cause the spirit of bardness.
