LET US PRAY PART 1 A PRESS TO GAIN MASTERY IN THE PLACE OF PRAYER

Hmm A play seven countries with the Holy Spirit and transformation by the principles of God's kin. Hellelujah, hallelujah. Revelations, Chapter five. Revelations, Chapter five. From verse one, we're reading all fourteen verses. Media gave it to us. Verse one. And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written with and on the back side sealed with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, who is worthy to open the book and to lose the seals thereof? And no man in heaven or in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look dearof Verse four. And I wept much because. No man was found worthy to open the book and to read the book, neither to look dear of. Was five, Allelujah. One of the elders said onto me with not behold the lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, had prevailed to open the book and to lose the seven seals thereof. And I beheld, and lo in the. Midst of the throne, I saw the four beasts in the midst of the elders and they stood a lamb as it had been slain, having seven sick horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent forth into the earth. And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne. Verse eight he says, And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and the four and twenty elders fell down before the lamb, having every one of them harps, golden vials full of orders, which are the prayers of the saints, and the song and new songs, saying, thou art worthy to take the book and to open the seals thereof, for that was slain, and has redeemed us onto God by thy blood, out of every kindred, throng people and nations. Verse ten he says, and has made us onto our God, kings and priests, and we shall reign on earth for more verses. And I beheld, and I heard. The voice of many angels round about the throne, and the beasts and the elders, and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousands and thousands of thousands, twelve, saying, with a loud voice, worthy is the lamb that was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength, and honor and glory and blessing. Take note of the final two verses, and every creature, this is where we're coming now, which is in heaven and on earth and under the earth. And such as I in the sea, and all that I in them, I heard them saying, blessing and honor and glory and power beyond to him that sits upon the throne, and to. The Lamb forever and ever. The final verse, and the four beasts said amen, And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshiped him that lived forever and ever. I just showed you from that scripture a picture of the worship in heaven. That what happens on earth sometimes when it looks like we're en rapture in an atmosphere, is because we come in sing with something that. Is already happening in heaven. And the moment you tap into that frequency, it's as if you're not in the earth again, something begins to happen. It's your assignment to begin. That's what we call assign show it doesn't mean coming out of your body, is that you are rising almost like levitating frequencies, and you will hit a mark in the spirit where you now join the family in heaven. It's like a resonance. What they are saying in heaven is what you are saying on the earth. That's how people draw songs. You see. There are many songs that we sing on earth here that the origin is in heaven. It came to men as visions. Some just saw it and took it from the Bible. But some of these mellowdish you see on earth that don't die is because they were important parts of it. I've had some of those sounds, some of those songs that we sing today. Every time you hear a song or a melody, it doesn't matter whether it came by through a secular voice or a sacred voice. If it strikes an it's stringing your spirit is because it came from a rem that is not ethlete. That's why it does not die. I'm saying that because some of these sounds you hear you can't explain. What is doing to you is a resonance. When it is a sound that is produced from Heaven and it's only been echoed on earth through worship, then you begin to feel the atmosphere. Through that sound, the atmosphere of heaven is replicated. You see that now the same thing the elders were saying. It was the same thing the inhabitants of the earth were saying. So you can get into that level of synchrony. Where As they're saying glory to God, we are also saying glory to God. As they're saying o Zanna, we're also saying Hosanna. And we begin to experience that throne room experience. But the key is to wait and worship. Most times we don't have the patience. To worship God. Now I understand we live very busy lives. But let me tell you. If you want to encounter the glory of God in certain dimensions, it takes time. You have to stay and worship, Stay and worship, and a time comes when you connect with something that Heaven is doing. Ah ah ah ah. We behold the glory Ofcome. We behold, the glory Ofcome. We behold, the glory of Come. We behold the Gloryalcome. We behold until. We are from. We behold until we are from. We behold until. We are from, We behold, we behold until we are changed. We behold until we are changed. We behold until we are changed. We behold, We behold all until we are changed. We behold until we are changed. Shapavatus, we be hold until we had changed. We be hold until we are changed. Ship we be. One more time. We be all till me out chamb untill we our change. We be all until we are changed. We be all until we our chair. Oh, oh, oh, oh. Spirit of the Living God, we ask you to visit us in very mighty life defining waye tonight. We have come for an encounter beyond an ordinary service. We have come to encounter the God of Heaven, the God of the Bible. We ask in the name of Jesus, that you find unrestrained access to our minds, unrestrained access to our spirits. Quicken us by your word, grant us grace to pray tonight, lead us into virgin dimensions and the spirit. Let us taught something that is divine tonight. Let us taught something that is mighty tonight. In the name of Jesus Christ, Allelujah, God bless you please. You may be seated. You may be seated. Growth in the spirit is a product of consistency consistency. Consistency when you are consistent with the business of God's presence, the practice of God's presence. When you are consistent with the business of prayer, when you are consistent with the business of the world, when you are consistent with the business of corporate fellowship, then your growth becomes inevitable. You see, you don't pray once in a while and grow consistently. You don't study and learn scripture once in a while and grow consistently. You don't fellowship and connect with the brethren once in a while and then grow consistently. The product is consistency. At chapter two hun verse forty two. And they continued steadfastly. Beginning is wonderful, But the secret is in the continuation. They continued steadfastly in the apostles doctrine, and in fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers asks. Chapter six and verse four. But we will give ourselves continually, continually. Jesus was speaking about the disciples, and he said, ye who have continued with me, Ye who have continued with me. One time he looked at them and said, will you also go and desert homes? To whom shall we go? You alone have the words of life. The key is consistency. When you find someone who is robust in the spirit, it is not just a one time visitation of God's presence, a one time study, one time worship. The key is in marching yourself consistently. He that dwells, not he that visits, He that dwells in the secret place of the Most High. The Bible says that person shall abide under the shadow of His wings. There are things you say when you're dwelling in his presence. There are words that come from you. You see, I will say of the Lord as a testimony I have dwelt in the presence of God. I will say of the Lord. There are things you cannot say of the Lord until you dwell in his presence. If you don't dwell, you cannot have the confidence to make certain bold statements. You cannot say of the Lord he's a healer until you're dwell in his presence. You cannot say of the Lord he is dependable until you're dwell in his presence. So if you have the fear and the laxity to make certain proclamations, it is because you have not dwelt in the secret place of the most high one of the gifts I have taught you. When you are consistent in the spirit, especially with the ministry of prayer, of the world, of worship, of fellowship, they are a number of things that begin to find expression. In your life. You see Number one, like I taught you in no particular order, is uterance. Autrance is different from oratory atory trucks of grammatical progress. Your ability to put thoughts together in a language and earthly language, and communicated coherently and intelligently, That is oratory. But autrance is. A gift of the spirit, is a product of a healthy secret place. God gives you an unusual capacity to communicate divine realities in a way that is so profound, is a way that is very intelligent. Whether people educated or uneducated, they are able to receive. It's a spirit communication. In His presence you receive wisdom, divine wisdom, Allelujah. In his presence you receive visions. God begins to give you pictures. You begin to give you explanations. I will stand upon my watch, and I will set myself upon the tower that I will see, not. Just that I will hear. There is sight when we stay in His presence. Allelujah. I'm giving us this preamble to encourage us. This is the year like never before. In the words of a w Toza, we must become intentional practitioners of his presence. It takes time to stay, it takes time to dwell. Is the word caver, it's it's it's the it's the picture of a hen on her eggs. You stay there until the egg hatches, not until you are tired. You see, because something happens. For every time the hen rests upon the eggs, supplying the warmth and the energy that it takes on till that egg becomes a living cheek. So when you stay. In its presence, that Chakaina comes to Mantol, you rests upon your life. And many things are transmuted to your spirit. Some of them you are aware at the point of encounter, but some of them you will not. Be aware until days, weeks, months. You just realize that you have stepped into a possibility. You cannot exactly tell when it came. There's an upgrade in your level of intelligence, an upgrade in your level of comprehension, an upgrade in the outworkings of the power of God through your life. You just know that every time you say. Be healed, there are more testimonies. Now you can't exactly trace which meeting are we together? Now, Yes, that's how it works. So my encouragement for us is that when we come to the House of God, participate in every part of the service. Don't select the part of the service. You think you want. Was designed to give you an overall spiritual experience. From the prayers, the charge, the testimonies, the givings, the worship, the singing, the word, the prophetic declarations. Every part of the service was so designed for maximum spiritual edification. The design is not man made. It came by the wisdom of the spirit. It's a strategy that if followed, you say, God is a god of patterns, like you have learned in this house, every time you see the glory of God manifest in an area of a man's life, it is proof that a divine pattern has been adhered to. Do you understand that now? So the way it works in the spirit is that the glory of God. Watch this, The glory of God. Is always connected to divine patterns, and the glory of God, like I've taught you, comes from the word caboard dogsa. It is a compendium of every opponent in God that makes him God away, together his wisdom, his favor, his wealth, his power, every spiritual quality whatsoever. The way it works is that God's glory desires to be manifested upon the earth. The Bible says that the knowledge of the glory of God will cover the earth as what has covered the sea. Away together, Now pray the name of the Lord. But the way that technology, please listen carefully. The way it works is that there. Must be an adherence to divine patterns. Every time you adhere to divine patterns, God's stamp that you have adhead correctly is that a deposit of His glory that is connected to that pattern is released immediately. So if you see someone become well in God's way, that is an expression of God's glory, but it is also an attestation that his patterns have been kept. When you find someone on usually anointed, anointed to heal away together, anointed to work in the supernatural, that is an expression of God's glory, science and wonders, but it is connected to. A specific, defined pattern. So if you desire to work in more of God's glory, you don't just ask him for it. Moses said, show me your ways. Then he would later say show me your glory. That's how it works. When he shows you his ways, then you will show you his glory. If you're a preacher, for instance, and you are not seeing the glory of God in your life, in terms of your spiritual arcumen, in terms of the performance of God's world, there's no point just praying and say, God, give me power, give me this sincere prayer. But the way to get it is to go and find out the pattern connected to that glory. The healing anoint him as an expression of God's glory is connected to an exact pattern. Influence, an increase as an expression of God's glory is connected to a special pattern. Wealth kingdom. Wealth is connected. To a specific pattern awa together, longevity of impact as an expression of God's glory is connected to a specific pattern. Favor as an expression of God's glory is connected to a specific pattern. Now here's what happens in church. We know the expressions of God's glory. We call them our desires, we call them our prayer request, but we're unwilling to study and to learn the patterns. You see it now. So when you. Submit yourself consistently, you're like you're doing now, whether you're falling online or watching, what you are doing is that you are learning the patterns of the kingdom. And as you learn the patterns of the kingdom, what happens is the corresponding measure of glory. The Bible calls them weights of glory. So it's like it's like kilos. You know how you measure meat, beef, or you measure gold. So you may carry safe instance, just for example, five grams of glory. That's wonderful, but it cannot do anything much away together now, and then when you stay to learn the patterns, the weight is added. Now it goes to ten. Now it goes to fifty. My goodness, there are people who are carrying tones of it, tones away together. Now, so you find an individual carrying that tone, and what happens. Listen, let me have your attention. What happens is that that atmosphere and that weight you are carrying, anybody who comes under the influence of your spiritual circumference must feel the weight of it too. This is what we call the cloud. This is what we call the atmosphere. So the impact spiritually that you feel when you come in proximity with men are not all the same. The physical body may look the same, but spiritually men are carrying glories in weights. I'll tell you this. Look at this. You can be fasting for one year over an issue, but you will come into the presence of a man and that answer comes immediately. It is because the weight of glory that person is carrying. That need is not a prayer request in that glory. So the moment you. Come under that influence, it becomes an answer immediately. You see that now, for I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the weight. The weight of glory, the weight of glory. Let me tell you this, when you really want to be a blessing, stay and carry the glory of God. There are many things you will not need to talk too much about. That cloud will do the speaking. You step into a place and seek people like yield. You step into a place answers that are taken one year, they just arrive like rain. Because you have become a vessel that can pull. I mean it's like it's like a tractor. You can pull a level of glory and bring it so that it becomes a blessing. Allelujah, weights of glory. You don't have to. Be a man of God. You don't have to be in the five fold ministry. So don't you think I'm just talking to past us. This is how believers should leave. This is the justification of your time in church. One of the ways you know whether a ministry is profiting you is by the weight of glory. You cannot be at the same level that you've been there for two years, for three years justify. Don't tell me. About membership from that's wonderful, but show me the weight of glory that has come to your understanding of the patterns. This is what the Lord commanded that ye should do, and then the glory of God shall appear onto you. If the glory of God does not appear in your life, your ministry, it. Is not God's fault. Is that there is a defiance in divine pattern. That's what he told Kine. He said, if you have done correctly, will you not be accepted? Don't say, God, why am I not prospering? There is a divine pattern connected to wealth. God's way time will not automatically bring you into it. It is an understanding. And this right here, ladies and gentlemen, is the assignment of the teaching ministry. The teaching ministry brings you through the ministry of the Holy Spirit, through the Scripture, and through the gift of utrance. It brings you into a comprehension. It opens your eyes efficient Chapter three hund verse nine. It opens your eyes that all men, to make men see. That's the key, to make all men see, whether they're educated or not. To make all men see, regardless their field of endeavor. When you come under the influence of a prophetic teaching ministry, it takes away the veil so you can see. It doesn't matter the subject of discussion. I'm helping you so that you will know that whether you are outside, whether you are inside, whether you are falling online, every service is an opportunity to carry a weight of glory. And sometimes it can be slow, so some of you are not feeling it until you get back to where you used to be and you find out that what was heard it is no longer had. It's not necessarily because you change, per se, is that a greater weight of glory came. On you. Hallelujah, prays the name of the Lord. I once watched a machine that crushes metals and crushes cars. So they just puts anything under it, and it just chops it off like a knife chopping vegetables in the kitchen. But one time they brought steel and kept it under that machine, and it pressed and pressed, and the machine stopped moving. It could not crush it. You see that now, So there are some situations. Is that cross you and venue is because of the material. You have not evolved in the spirit. You are still clear, You are still wood. By the time you transit to silver, then to gold, some things will not happen again. The fire that bonds wood cannot bond gold. Makes no difference whatsoever. A house can burn. And while we are packing the ashes, you will sill see gold. Jewelry is there because the temperature was not enough to melt it. Befoil presence came, Man changed me. Befoil presence came. Man changed me. I won't go back. I can't go back to the way it used to be. A foil presence can change me. I won't go back, can go back. To the way it used to. Be before your present scain shange. So, ladies and gentlemen, what you see every time you come here is the cloud of glory. Our assignment is to work in partnership with the spirit of grace to allow for that atmosphere. But once that glory comes, we're ready to teach. Once that glory comes, we're ready to move in the spirit. And when you are immersed in that glory, you may not know the reason why the words come with the level of impact that it creates. In your spirit. It's not the speaking, No, is that something is happening in the realm of the spirit. Behind the scene. There are impartations, Things are living, things are coming. There's an ex change happening in the spirit. Something you always had before now is coming. With a light, and the bulb is leaking your spirit. The world is driving away darkness John one five, because it shines in the midst of the darkness. Now the darkness cannot comprehend. Your fears are going melting like butter in the presence of fire. You are saying that it does not really carry that kind of power, the power you have accorded your fears. Your fears are only a demonstration of your ignorance as the world of God comes changing you, fear goes, it dies. You are not mechanically trying to be bold. The word makes you so. It gives you that fortification. You can face life with confidence. See that your Monday should not be the same, your Tuesday should not be the same. If Monday and Tuesday the same, Sunday was wasted. You see that now you must. Carry a weight of glory in February that you did not carry in January. That's a justification that there's an. Ongoing process of growth in your spirit. Man, next time you ask what is the difference between men in terms of the possibilities they command, I'm telling you now it's not stature. It's not the sound of your voice. It is the weight of glory. That is an ascessation of your spiritual knowledge. They have done business with God in deep waters, and the glory is the reward weights. You cannot come with a one gram dimension of glory and then want to confront goliads. No, it doesn't work that way. The goal is to take advantage of the world of God and open your eyes and pound upon pound, kilogram upon kilogram for want of word, that glory keeps resting on you that when you step out of this place, there are things you do not need to talk about again. It begins to leave because you are a. Career of the glory of God. Can you turn this charge into a prayer and one minute further more of your glory in my life? Now I've seen the reason why things don't move as fast as they should. I see the reason why my fears are still there. I see the reason why my doubts are still there. Someone go ahead and pray. One minute you are praying, Let it be from the depth of your heart. Man of God, go ahead and pray the generation you are sent to. It is not just depending on your summons, but depending on the weight of glory that packs your teachings, that packs you're doing business, that packs you're doing politics. That's the secret. It's not just what we do, it's a weight of glory that stands behind. What we do. Go ahead and pray Chapra taka regatar one minute. You're preparing the soil of your heart. It's a determined sister praying tonight is the brother who is angry at the level you are ready to press deeper chaprack at table land or sapra ca tepe legatar for a light afflictions, which is but for a moment, work at the us a far more eternal weight of glory. It works in ox an eternal weight of glory. It works in ox an eternal weight of glory. Ten more seconds, preparing the soil of your heart. This is corinonia, So place of encounter. Relah Alleluia, prays the name of the Lord, in the name of Jesus, made to night's teaching, add to the weight of glory that will rest upon your life. It is in Jesus name we pray, please be seated. A quick announcement. God gave me an instruction. Every once in a while, This divine instructions that double o strategies just come, and most times God does. It by his wisdom. He has declared it over our lives that this is a year of deliverance. And they say year of it emission. And I can tell you if there's any year we've got the prophetic world right, it is this year. As the year on folds, you will see the wisdom. Of the spirit of God. So God gave me an instruction for the next three months February or March April, and May. The third Sunday of every of these months would be a time of worship and warfare. Allelujah, just for the three months. I don't know why God gave me the instruction for three months. So March, the third Sunday in March, the third Sunday in April, and the third Sunday in May is going to be a time of extra ordinary worship and warfare. Allelujah. When God sends a world like this, it is because he has seen a few hallelujah. For every one of those times, we're going to be bringing in some of our worshipers that we know are prophetic worshipers that really have the hand of God upon their lives. And it's going to be a stretch in the spirit. We will worship, we will pray, we will war, we will establish things in the spirit. So take note. March is fifteenth, April should be what now my screen is not clear here. April is nineteenth and May is seventeenth. Mark the dates. Every service this year is a powerful one, but please mark the third third services of every month beginning from March, not April. Beginning from March. Invite everybody, and for those of you who are connecting across the globe. Please do the work of an evangelist. Would the media would prompt you when it's the third Sunday, make sure you get the word across to everyone. It's going to be an extraordinary time allelujah. For the month of March. We'll be having dons in here. We'll be leading us through Allelujah. I've asked him to come with his entire team and would give them about one hour of on sense or prophetic worship, allelujah. And it's not special number. It's prophetic worship, the kind of worship that unlocks keys. Allelujah. Praise the name of the Lord. And so please take note of that. I believe that God intends to do us good this year and will maximize every opportunity he's providing for us in Jesus' name, hallelujah. All right, so let's get into our teaching for tonight. I'm teaching on the subject let us pray. It's a press to gain mastery again in prayer. Every once in a while, God brings us a word on prayer, and I want to show us a few things in addition to the things that we have learned that's my assignment to help guide you and provide spiritual intelligence as it relates to various aspects of the kingdom. And today it's not just going to be a discussion. I would discuss a few things and post, then will pray. Then I'll discuss, then will pray, then will end with prayer. Let's see how far God will help us on this journey. Are you ready? Look eighteen and verse one, let us pray. We're pressing to gain greater spiritual understanding. In the place of prayer, he spake a parable. The Bible says to the end that men ought all ways to pray and not to faint. Men ought all ways to pray and not to fail. In Faster Salonian chapter five and verse seventeen, the Bible says, to pray without season. I really sense in my heart tonight. I don't know why, but this is something that has lingered for weeks. Now. I sense that not just for Coinonia, but across many there's a bathing happening in the spirit over destinies, a bathing of dimensions. And I want you to be very sensitive. Sometimes we do not understand the full scope of what God is doing. But every time the Holy Spirit is trying to push something out, you know, like a woman who is in labor room trying to push out that baby. You must be sensitive because for someone that baby can be a new dimension. For you, that baby can be years restored. That baby can be a new dimension of the prophetic, a new dimension of the apostolic. You must be sensitive so you don't miss your season. So on one side, on one hand, you are listening to me, but on the other hand, you are sensitive. Toward the Holy Spirit is also transmuting to you. Praise the name of the Lord. Okay, that's true. The Lord places it in my heart. Please, somewhere in the course of the salmon, who sing that past on that song. My victory is in the blood. Just find anybody, any of the ladies, essay that song, so we'll raise it. I noted it here because I had the song in the place of prayer, and when I'm praying about the meeting and I hear songs like that, one of the reasons may be that there's an anointing on it and God wants also sing it. So somewhere, I'm sure, somewhere in the course of the teaching, there will be something that will connect to that song, and then will take a minute or two and just push it in in the name of Jesus. Christ, allelujah. Colloss after one verse to a final scripture, and then I begin to establish a few things. The trust of my teaching. Tonight is to really really show you what prayer does in the life of the believer. That's what I really want to focus on. So I will give you a few prayambles as remind us or refresh us. You see that, and then we'll go to the full thrust of tonight's teaching. I want to show you what prayer really does in the life of a believer. Collosians for and verse two four and verse two it says, continue in prayer. You see the word yeah again, continue in prayer and watch in the same with thanksgiving. Continue in prayer. Now I've taught us in this house that prayer is at the fabric of all things spirituality, whether it's the Christian faith or in the faith of our brothers, the Muslims, Islam, Buddhism, you know, and all religions, most if not all, really John's believe in the concept of connecting with the divine, connecting with a being connecting with a cosmic power or whatever name it is that they give it. And so prayer is one of the indices that defines spirituality across any territory, across any nation. Praise the name of the Lord. And it's important for us to understand the subject of prayer. Praise the Name of the Lord. Let me post for a minute and just honor two great people who just stepped in. Archbishop John Praise sir. We honor you. Please give him a big God bless you. Thank you so much for your presence. And Bishop Macanto, God bless. You, sir. Such an honor coin on your warehouse of honor. Can we bless this great Father's thank you, hallelujah. Praise the Name of the Lord. So the idea of prayer is at the fabric of all things spirituality. Those we call unbelievers our only unbelievers. With respect to the Christian faith. Their believers in something or in someone a well together and regardless what they believe, they believe in the idea. Of connecting to the divine. The prophets of Bell they prayed the Elijah, the Prophet. He prayed. One thing common between two of them was that they all believed and agreed that men would outsource strength based on their connection to the divine and in general sense, prayer has to do with communion. Prayer has to do with communication. Prayer has to do with fellowship. I taught you here that beyond receiving, beyond making petitions, prayer in its essence has to do with communion, with fellowship, Allelujah, with worship in fact, and then of course communicating our thoughts, communicating our needs, communicating our fears, communicating our desires. It is a sense sin as a way of communicating to God. Now, because we are believers, we don't call him a cosmic power, we don't call him a divine reality, we don't call him a heavenly being. He is God Almighty. The Bible is very clear. The Christian faith is very powerful because it defines God. It doesn't leave God to an abstract concept. There are many religions, with all due respect, that definition of God is not a. Person, is a concept. But in the Christian faith, the Bible is very clear as to the definition of God. When we worship, we worship him that. Sits upon the throne and the lamb John seventeen three. This is life eternal, that they may know thee the only True God, and Jesus, whom thou hast sent. Allelujah. Let the wise man not glory in his wisdom, Let the rich man not glory in his riches. Let the strong man not glory in his strength, But let him that gloria glory in this, that he understand that and need. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, a wisdom, the knowledge of the Holy that is understanding. And so when we deal with the matter of God in the Christian faith, it's not an abstract concept. We are serving a living God with a defined personality who can be known, even though he is eternally magnificent and mysterious. But He has fragmented himself in a way that those he died four can know him. God can be known as mighty as he is. We cannot know all of God. Unfortunately, it will be an eternal journey and unfolding, one layer after another. Allelujah. The Bible says there is no such of his understanding. However, he has provided a template that can guide us. We know God by studying his nature. We know God by studying his wisdom. We know God by studying his power. That's the model the Bible gives. In learning God, the believer is left with the threefold approach. We know God again, I repeat, digressing for a reason. By studying his nature. To the degree to which you understand the nature of God, you have come into a functional knowledge of God. Number two, we know God by exploring his wisdom. That will show me the path of life. It's in your life we see life. Allelujah. He's the fountain of wisdom. So when we learn his works, his wisdom, we access knowledge of Him. And then number three, we study his power. As Chapter one or efficients one, verse nineteen, Paul was praying over. The church in Ephesos, and among. The many things he wanted them to know was the exceeding greatness of his power to us whatd will believe. He wanted us not. Just to know to have knowledge the spirit of revelation, but to know the exceeding greatness of his power, the power that was invested when he raised Christ from the dead. Paul himself said that I may know Him. That means God can be known, that I may know Him and the power of his resurrection. The fellowship of is suffering allelujah. So prayer is communion. Prayer is fellowship with God second Corinthians thirteen and fourteen. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God. We quote it every time, even though largely without understanding. And the fellowship that's where we get the word coin on here, the fellowship of the Holy Spirit says to be with us all and would do shout amen to that allelujah. I have by way of summary and a recap. I have taught us that essentially, even though I will break it down to other layers now, but essentially, prayer has a fourfold assignment. Number one, prayer. Has the first assignment for the transformation and the. Growth of the believer. That is a major part of the assignment of prayer for our growth and our transformation. Look nine twenty nine, and as he prayed, the version of his countenance was altered and his raiment became white and glistering. So the first and major assignment of prayer is for your growth and transformation. Number two, I'm still going to elaborate on it. Prayer is a platform for obtaining requests and making petitions. According to scripture, the authorized channel for making requests and your petitions. Obtaining promises is through prayer, Mark eleven, twenty four. Verily, verlier, I say on to you what things soever ye desire, When ye pray, believe that thou receivest them, and thou shalt have them. Matthew seven, seven and eight. Ask and you shall receive, Seek and you shall find. Knock, it says, and the doors shall be open, it says, for everyone that asked receiveth are we learning? The Bible says, to be anxious for nothing, He says, but in everything, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known onto God. Apostle James Tortus, he said, ye have not because ye asked not. So prayer is a platform for making petitions and for obtaining requests. Number three. The third assignment of prayer, according. To scripture, is for creation and spiritual legislation. In Genesis chapter one, twenty six to twenty eight, man was given what we call the dominion mandate. He was given stewardship over this side of God's kingdom. To be a faithful steward, and. The Bible says morovite is required in stewards that a man be found faithful, and part of our job of faithfully steward in the earth is to exact dominion over it. And in doing so He designed man to function like him. So he created man in his image. The image talks about the nature of Christ, the fruit of the spirit, But the function of God means to speak like him and to have things appear, and then, of course, to do the works of Christ. Are you learning now when we speak? The Bible says, where the word. Of a king is, there is power. He says, declare you that thou might test be justified. Our words are not empty. The mouth of the believer is not just for eating swallowing food. It is for creating, defining, re defining your possibilities. It is true, allelujam creation and spiritual legislation. You pass decrease in the spirit, you make decrease in the name of Jesus. The centurion says, speak the word. Only he understood the power of words. He says, I am a centurion, I have men under me. I am under authority. And by reason of that authority, I say, don't just wish. I say to one go and he go it. I say to one come and he come it, and he said, you don't. Need to come to my house. Speak the word only. And Jesus said, wow, I've not found such faith, such understanding. No, not in Israel. Words are powerful. They create possibilities. Curses walk through words, Blessings walk through words. Limitations come through words, Liberty comes through words, deliverance comes through words, bondage comes through words. Hallelujah. The blessing came through words. And God bless man and said, although he had created man Genesis one, verse one, in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth verse two. Now the earth was dark. Was void, was formless, and the spirit of God over round the face of the word as verse three. And God said, every creative spirit speaks. And if man is created in the image and the likeness of God, then you must be a talking spirit. I pray for you in the of Jesus. Understanding the power of prayer, you will never be silent when you should be speaking. The reason why James was beheaded, I believe is because. The church was silent. There's no record of the church praying when James was held. They held James, I'm sure they were just lamenting among themselves, and he was beheaded, and the Bible says, when Herold saw that it pleased the Jews, he now captured Peter and kept him, waiting to deliver him after the passover. But the Church became angry. The Bible says, on the night before his handover, everything had been in place for his deliverance or his destruction. The Bible said, bought prayer. Now the church decided to open the amount to speak. But prayer was made. Without seizing by the church onto God for him, and angels came. When the boat was going to destroy the apostle. I'm sure the people were crying and calling all kinds of people. He subjected himself and began to speak, and an angel appeared and told him. He said, be patient, fine, rest there shall. Be no loss. And he said, hey, gentlemen, I have seen an angel. He has appeared to me, and he said, there shall be no loss. The Bible says the boat rocked. Left right and centered the loss on properties. But the boat sailed safely and arrived an island called Melita. Words words words. When Abraham was dismissing his other children, he gave them gifts. But the Bible says to Isaac, he gave him everything he had. There was no mention of giving him any physical thing, but he gave him words, and Isaac sowed in that land. But because of the words he carried he read that same year he increased he works until the Philistines envied him. I pray for you again. You will not be silent when you should be speaking. Hallelujah. And then number four, prayer, according to scripture, is a platform, provides a platform for warfare and intercession. I'm still going to recap on this. I want to broaden them a bit and elaborate on them, but just doing a recap over the teachings so that those who have not been here can connect and then together will just rise to another dimension. It's very important to understand this about prayer. So when you are praying. You are not just shouting and miss I don't worship us pray without understanding, because you are praying to aun known God, but believer us. Most pray with intelligence, allelujah. And the first description of spiritual intelligence is. An awareness of the God you are paying to. And then to understand the assignment of prayer. Prayer does not do everything, but prayer is needed in everything. Write that down. Prayer does not accomplish everything, but prayer is needed in everything. Another way to put it is that prayer is not the only key in the kingdom. We have keys, not a key. However, like you have heard me say, where prayer is not, the key becomes the hand that holds the key. There are many other keys in the kingdom. If the only key you know is prayer, you will be powerful, but you will still be disadvantaged, and I will give you the keys of the kingdom. Prayer been a major part, a foundational key, but not the only key. As seen in the life of Jesus, he prayed, but he did not only pray. He went to the temple. He was not in the temple to pray. He went to learn scripture. When Satan attacked him, he did not say I have prayed. He said it is written. Someone learning now. And there are times that even though he prayed, even though it is written, he needed men. He said, come follow me. So these are the principles that made for victory in the kingdom. You don't select which one you want. You open up yourself to the entire bunch of keys, because when you stand before the door, the key that opens. The door has been defined already, and it's not defined by your convenience. It's an ordinance. If you are learning, say amen. Sometimes, because of the. Huge role that prayer plays in the overall spiritual economy of the believer, we tend to tilt into the bias of trivializing order, maybe not equally, but complimented what they call it now, complimentary spiritual principles. And we do that to our detriment. So you find. Believers who are prayer. Remember I'm teaching on prayer. They pray very well. But for instance, a man who is prayerful but does not understand the law of honor, there will be many answers piling in the realm of the spirit, but it will never manifest because of the neglect of one spiritual law. A man can be prayerful and omit the law of diligence. The Bible already tells you without predicting, that a lazy man will catch something and not roast it, or you will give an excuse. You see that now, So your. Victory as a believer is an inter play of all the spiritual laws. Need that for your victory, prayer being a major one, but not the only one your following say amen. But now we're zooming to prayer, so allow my bias as we stress on a few things concerning prayer. Again to remind you, for our topic tonight, let us pray. We're gaining mastery in prayer. I want to focus on what prayer. Really achieves in the life of a believer. So it's going to be an elaborate description of what I just gave you, and to broaden it, I have eight eight points here and I will run through them very quickly. But like I told us, there will be breaks periodically and then we'll pray in the spirit. So when I prompt you to pray, make sure you pray, let it be from. The depth of your heart. When the school of prayer tonight, in the name of Jesus Christ, harlle lujah. Have you learned something already? Saarah received grace to pray? Say it like you're serious. I receive grades to pray now. I tell you this one of the reasons why we have a lot of struggles in the prayer ministry. It's not because believers don't have the zeal to pray. Now there is the spirit of slumber, spiritual slumber that can come upon a man and attack your prayer life. But you see, the human nature is such that you have to be motivated by intelligence and reason to prime people into doing things away together. As humans, we don't do things blindly. If you tell me, just sit down. That's the reason why faith is a treasure in the life of a believer, because faith sometimes does not demand an absolute knowledge of everything. It demands trust in God. So if you ask me to sit, and you don't tell me any other reason, you just say, sits there, I. Will sit in obedience to you. But it does not deny the fact that I will be frustrated because I. Don't know why I'm seated together. But if you tell me there are robots outside and I want you to sit in one place, you see, you have given me the basis for staying power. Even if it's after one hour. My body may be tired, but my consciousness to supply strength that keeps me there. So the reason why many believers are epileptic in your prayer life is because we have sort of trips them to pray. You are not praying, you are not a serious Christian. You are going to be defeated and out of kills. They just try to pray, but eventually they slack back. The correct way is to help. Them understand what really happens when you pray? What is the value? What's the treasure the riches that are derived from a healthy, consistent, ever increase in prayer life. And in this series of discussion, that's my goal to help you understand what really happens. You see, when that comes, you will begin to pray by yourself. By yourself, go and. Wait for me at a junction, and we say a person, why just stay there? Now? You will get their obedience and be angry at every car and be frowning and. Insulting me while you're waiting. And where you exhaust your obedience, you just live and say. Let the worst happens. But if I say wait there, in two hours. Someone is bringing a million mira for you. You see that now. Already I've given you an idea that it's going to be. A long time. So when you stand there. Looking as if you are confused and missing, when people say sorry, you need to see the police war time, I'm fine, I'm fine. There is an expectation. Let me tell you this. Don't take for granted that humans are the highest of God's creation. If you want them to connect to spiritual things, you must reveal to them the treasure that is contained in obedience. Even in our walk with God, God does not just tell us to believe him blindly. He gives us incentives. There is victory connected to believe in him. There is heaven connected to believe in him. He will not just come and say, believe in me, serve me, worship me. He would sound. That would be the same thing. Even idols, idols that don't have power, they lie all men to worship them by giving them incentives. Allelujah. If you do not. Understand the value and the treasure that is in prayer, it will make God and make the faith life look like a selfish manifestation of a wicked and cruel king's desire. And that's not the way God is. Everything prayer is for the profit of the believer. Everything prayer, including giving God, prays and worship, is still back to. The profit of the believer. When I was. Teaching you about the attributes that brand God as God. There six of them. One of them. In addition to being. Omnipotent, omnipresent omniscient is that God is self existent. Remember, God is self existent. The meaning of that is. That God does not need any other agency to maintain himself. Our life is derived from God. We need oxygen, we need you know, food, we need whatever it is. We need sleep. Do you know you can be healthy and. Without sleep you can become sick again. But the Keeper of Israel does not sleep. He does not slumber. That's what makes him self existent. When he became a man, he slept on his way to Gadara. When he became a man, he slept, he woke up, he did all the things that humans do. But as God, he is self existent. It's someone learning now. Hallelujah. So what does prayer achieve in the life of the believer? Are you a ready praying the spirit for one minute? And then I begin to table. My submissions, and I hope. That it will add to our spiritual understanding and drive us to a place of consistent prayer. Open your mount and praying the spirit. Shapranta parantos, Cali kata brantos, sabra barattos. Sing that song deeper experience for me one minute, every one place we're praying for one minute. I can he are.

Up and love my bat can start to ring the letters at taut. Product loo six. S in Jesus Mighty name we pray. What does prayer achieve in the life of a believer or a territory? What I'm about to list for you goes beyond the personal benefit of the believer, because prayer affects two entities. Number one, it affects the individual, but prayer also affects a territory. Prayer, if don't correctly, affects the individual, extending to your family, but it also affects communities. The healing of the land is connected to prayer. Are we together? Prayer is not just limited to personal benefits. Your benefit as an individual when you submit to prayer accurately, but your territory also benefits. Number One What does prayer achieve in the life of a believer or a territory. Number one, Prayer creates the platform for communion and fellowship with God, deepening the believers relationship with God. I'll take that again and then I'll explain. Prayer creates the platform for communion for fellowship with God, deepening the believers relationship with God. Prayer creates the platform for communion and fellowship with God, deepening the believers relationship with God. Give us James fae and verse eight very quickly, then we do some one forty five Verse eighteen. James Faan. Verse eight says, draw night to God. Look at it there, Draw night to God. That's the law. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Draw nigh to him. When you desire intimacy. He supplies grace, but you initiate the process through your hunger, through your passion, through your consistency, your love for the secret place. It is your It is like how do I call it now? It's like the wooing of the spirit. When God wants to draw you deeper into spiritual things, he will plants the hunger in you. But you have to respond to that hunger. That hunger drives you to the secret place, to the place of communion. When others are sleeping, you awake in the night, soaking yourself in an atmosphere. Worship what you are saying by your consistencies, Maranatha. Come, I desire your presence. I desire your glory, I desire your power. It will not just come because you want it. There has to be a drawing, a deeper relationship and of when you those are causing the practice of God's presence. You have to be very intentional. Now it's someone, it's someone learning. Now this is very important. Your glow rese my wand is high. Your glow rese my want is sir. Your glow reise my wand is high. Your glory is my want. He's your prayers and seis my want? Is your prayers and seis my want is sir, Your prayers and sees my wand is your prayersence, it is my want, is your powers My want is. Your power? Is my world? Your po is my wand is. Your po is my world is Listen to me. When you say believer is passionate about God. There are a number of indices that measure passion. Number one is that passion always has time to give. You never find scarcity of time in the presence of passion. One of the ways you know passion is dying is the excuse of lack of time. The moment you begin to give an excuse of lack of time, I am busy. They promoted me. Your hunger is dying immediately, I can't tell you. It's an attack your prayers. And since my want is your preresence is my want is when the early Church began, you see the way the apostles protected the ordinances that preserve the presence of God. With increased came trouble, and they said, you know what, do you know the confusion that was happening among. The Christian people. While it looked like an economic issue, the undertone was an attack to destrict the prayer life, to. Destroy the fellowship of the apostles, so that their. Growth will be stunted. But it came through the welfare department. It's the reason why leaders in church must be trained and they must be spiritual. It will look like an ushering issue. What it is an attack on the man of God's anointing, an attack on the prayer life an attack, to create offense, to create a lot of things. Is the reason why when you love the man God that's placed before you, create systems that protect his focus. Your glory. Even in heaven, the shadow beams and the seraphs, they protect the holiness and the glory of God with eyes all over and with six wings above at the site under. They are protectors of His glory. You must create that system when you are a leader, raise people and distribute functions so that it growth does not become a cost to you. So they left the where the temptation was to leave the matters of ministry and now self tables. Administration can become a cancer to growth. So let me teach you something as a leader, particularly a man of God, as you are rising. Don't become too full of yourself that it does not affect your prayer life. Raise people and trust them. God trusted you too. Don't say if I trust them, what will happened? God trust them you while you were growing. Trust them with activities. Train the workers, let them do the work while you pray. It says, raise from among you seven people full of wisdom and the spirit, whom we were put over this business. But as for us, we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the world. Allelujah. And attack on your contact with God, and attack on your fellowship, and attack on your time of prayer. Let me tell you this, Certain use this both good and evil to destroy men. By now you know that he's called the evil one. Does not mean his tools must always be evil. No, it is his result that is evil. The tool can even be righteousness. Satan can use good and bring a man down. It is not always that he uses evil. He can use truth and bring a man down. He can use compassion like you wanted to use Peter's compassion. If Satan needs to use scripture to destroy your spiritual life, he will use it. When it came to Jesus, he didn't said the devil said. He said, it is ready who is learning. So prayer provides a platform for communion. Let me tell you this, no matter how great you're becoming, life, create systems that protect your time of fellowship. I recall a man of God many years ago, I think it was a pastor's conference, and he said something. He said some visitors just bumped into him and they just wanted his time and he was he was e coincided with when he was spending time with God. And you know, the visitors were quite noble people, and they waited for an hour, and they were getting. Angry and all of that. And I think the daughter orso if I recall, walked on to him and said, Daddy, go out and attend to these people now. And he called and said, my daughter's city here. Let me teach you some thing. He said. The reason why these men are coming is because of what I'm doing. If I stop what I'm doing, they will find another person. Men are like that. They don't really love you. They love what you carry that can help them. So don't say I'm a celebrity man just like me. No gentles come to your light, their kings come to the brightness. Let me tell you, no man is unnecessarily special by default. It is what is on you that makes you special. And if you lose it and think you will remain special, men will surprise you. This world is a horb of selfish people. They can say oh Sana today and say crucify him tomorrow. So protect the grace, protect the power, protect the oil, protect the presents. Your relevance depends on it. Can't sell your ministrations if you have to protect it. No, say I'm too busy. I'm going around the world. You're not the first to go around the world. Some day going around the world, some dag with expansion. You're all I want You're all, lie me. I want to holy close to me. Your all want you all. To see your king come hard by. You all. I want you, I want to hold you close, sue me. You're all want you all to see your keys. My heart cry. The presence is Wan is your preers and says. My wand is Ah your preers? And is my wand is a. Your praresens my wand is. I tell you this, whatever the presence of God gives you is the same presence that keeps it. If the presence of God gave you fame, is the presence of God. That will keep it. I said this to you with every sense of humility. Our world is full of X people, and by X, I don't mean to insult X anointed X, useful X, graceful, EX worshiper X. This it's not about being evil. Is that the devil oct pick them? And they started serving tables, and as they serve tables. They found out that the oil was tail and faded. Please, whatever you can do in righteousness, protect the presence. Protect the presence, especially because we are in such an unforgiving generation. Once they discerd that grace is not functioning on your life, they flip. The bob next next. It's a terrible thing. People will place a demand on you. They will joint youth from here to outside. If they feel you carry grace. But let them perceive that the grace has dried. They will look at you and not even have the message to say you once bless me yesterday men for you. Let me tell you this leadership one o, one board. The clap of. Men and your criticisms still achieve the same thing. Did you hear what I said? When man insults you or say well done, it still achieves the same thing. You need to know how to manage the applauds of men and manage the critics of the critics of men, because it can all lead. There are few people you will find in your life. I can tell you this for free, who will love you for who you are and stay with you. Out of jeez. There were five thousand people that Jesus. Was fed, but when he was on the cross, only his mother and John men for you. It didn't start today. So when you are rejoicing and saying a celebrity, it looks like it's my season. Hey, go and lend the story. The secret to tomorrow is in yesterday. Your presence is my won is I'm ministering to someone who is following online. This is the secret. As your hunger goes, sow your relevance, as your hunger rises, saw your sustainability in the kingdom and in the affairs of spirit things. Let me speak to co laborers and the gospel. So as much as it's wonderful to rise, be famous, be great, let me tell you this history is full of the deception of success and the deception of the applauds of men. Men will clap for you because in their minds you are a product. They call that product man of God, they call that product apostle. But you are simply a product that. Produces a certain desired outcome. And I tell you, if you live long enough, a day will come, either by their own growth or your own decline, or the rise of another option. They will show you you were not too special. So when you learnd this early enough, go and listen to my message, the law of seasons, the mystery of Pharaoh's dream. The world is full of pained people today who. Are one standing at the spotlight, and they forgot that there are people today who will even if it means to lick your feet. But the day they have an option to what you are providing, they will turn your face and not look back. I'm not saying to not celebrate when people rejoice, but please lend this elly. Save yourself heart attack. The only person who will never leave is the friend that stickest closer than a brother. But when men say Osanna, they will even give you a donkey and remove your clothes. A man who can remove his cloth and put it on the ground, said Jesus, walk on it. And yet the man that Galilean was carrying the cross, bleeding for the sake of the same people, and they said, look at him. He saved others, he could not save himself. I'm sure. As Jesus was on his way to gold got her, he turned and saw the man who. Collected double portion when they were distributing bread. I know your face, he said, go and die, Go and. Die typical with men. Where was the woman with the issue of blood when he was going to die? Where was Lazarus who he rose from the dead. You are not the first who bless men and they ignore you. Then His presence will be your greatest protection in this wicked world. I can tell you this A Ta. Ta ta. Allelujah. Number two. So prayer created a platform for communion and fellowship with God, deepening the believer's relationship with God. And of course you know that some one forty five. And verse eighteen. Let's look at it very quickly. We need to rush one forty five eighteen. The Bible says the Lord is nigh onto them that call upon him, more so than that call upon him. In truth, do you know that there is a realm of intimacy with God where you can deepen your relationship with God. You can know that which is in the heart of the Father. John Chapter fourteen, verse twenty one says, scripture that changed my life many years ago. He that keeped my commands, is he that loveth me. And he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father. Read the remaining part. And I will love him and will manifest myself to him. Verse twenty three, same Scripture twenty three. It says, if a man loves me, he will keep my words, and my father will love him, and we will come onto him and make our. Abode with him. Let's go to number two. What does prayer achieve in the life of a believer or a territory ready? Prayer provides a platform for. The believer to encounter the refining and transforming power of God. Prayer provides a platform for the believer to encounter the refining and the transforming power of God. There is such a thing as a refiner's fire. Second Corinthians of the Three Numbers eighteen, the Bible says, but we all with unveiled faces beholding him as in a mirror, we are changed that beholding you see, there is in the place of prayer you encounter the refining and the transforming power of God. I like Some fifty one unberse ten. Some fifty one is a sum of brokenness. When you really want to be broken before God, go and read Some fifty one one to the and. It says, create in me a clean heart. You can't add a clean heart by default, it says, and renew a right spirit, a man can carry a wrong spirit. Amasiah did what was right in the sight of God, but not with a perfect heart. Listen to me. When you get oil, or you get a product, you pass it through a refining process. Am I right? The assignment of a refining. Process is number one to purify that raw substance, but number two to create other components out of it. So crude, for instance, as you refine crude, you don't just get petrol or pear mess. As we know, diesel comes there, kerosine comes there, gas and several other things come out of it. Are we together? Now? That's what happens when we pray. There are many mentions of the God life that is invested in you, but it is still domant. When you submit yourself to the refining power of prayer, the first thing it does is to refine your character. I was speaking this morning in Legos, and I was it yesterdanight now, and I was charging the people. I said, becoming like Jesus Christ is the first assignment of the life of God in you. It empowers you to carry to embody the nature of Christ. There are many Christians who don't look like Christ. Just allow them open their mouth they pray for hours and still talk like demons. Are we together? So it's a very important thing. You must become like Christ in experience, like I was charging the people there. Every territory I know in Nigeria, in Africa, we have with all your respect, certain positive aspects of our culture, but every culture I know has certain negative things connected to It is the tree of the knowledge of both good and evil, and it is the assignment of the refining power of God through the platform of prayer, to refine a way that draws. When you submit your life to the ministry of prayer, the draws that would have followed you. And destroyed you after twenty years is set to through that refining power of prayer. It's someone learning now. Every way I know in this country has a backlog of certain signature spirits that work in the life of people, from anger to lost to wickedness. Are we together? I can ask you mention one good thing about where you come from. You mention it quickly, and I'll say, mention one challenging thing from where you come from. You will even mention it twice faster. People are angry. People, or people are wicked people, or people are on serious people, or there's on timely death. Let me tell you where that purification happens. When you submit yourself to the transforming power of prayer. Listen, you can submit yourself to prayer but not allow. It to transform you. I hope you know that just because you are praying does not mean you have submitted to the refining. You can submit to prayer simply to receive from God. So your consciousness in prayer is tell Lord towards receiving. You will never allow the power of God change you. And there are people like that. They will pray for years and for decades, they will receive answers, but they are never changed by it. Your consciousness as you get to the place of prayer is what defines the activities that happen during your time of prayer. You can get to the place of prayer, Lord, I want to receive. I'm just here because I'm looking for my school is versus Lord. I am bringing the raw and refined state even to a possessor of your life. That draws. Let it be drained out. Are we together now? Yes? Like poison is extracted. From a wound, and the Holy Spirit begins to lead you as you submit yourself to prayer. The hand of God comes upon you, and in. Partnership with the world of God, that anger, that unforgiveness, are we together. That version of you that makes you look like. The negative aspect of where you come from is in his presence. It is settled. Oh you are Ego ab, No wonder they behave a certain way. You are Eurobabe, No wonder they behave a certain way. You are from the north Ibbe, No wonder they behave a certain way. You are from the south South. You are American, you are British. You see that now you are Caribbean, they behave in a certain way. Not when you are refined, When you stare you are refined. People who keep asking where are you from? And when you say you're from social places, they says a lie. We cannot find in you the traits. And you tell them as submitted to the refining power and the transforming power of prayer. If someone learning now I know. Your people to have a widespread attitude of disrespect, you say you are right, except that when I met him in the secret place, he refined me. He refined a way dishonor from me. I hear that there's something that happens to your people that don't live beyond fifty. It's true. The Nazarenes have taught you here. Nazarens had a cancer upon them. As a plague. They did not have long gevity of impact and example is something. So when Jesus shown up as a Nazarene, Natania said, don't. Waste don't call me to go meet him. It's a waste. Can anything good come out of Naza? Jesus said, don't insult him. He's an Israelite in whom there is no guile, meaning he's not lying. What he's saying is true. However, Jesus showed us the possibility of being refined out. Is someone listening now, Yes, sir, The first proof that you have met God is something happens. A major alteration to your character. If you remain the same, you are not changed. And it's because you have not met him who is learning. Yes, that prayer purify my heart. It's not the prayer for baby Christians. In fact, the older you grow in the faith, the more you need that prayer, the prayer to purify your heart. Remember when they caught the person in an adultery. Remember that story in the very art of it, the Bible says, And I said, okay, this woman was caught in the very Jesus said, he who does not have seen to cast the first toone. The Bible says, they were convicted from the oldest. Something happens as you grow old. The anger increases, the frustration increases, the disappointment increases, the consciousness of the wickedness of men increase. By the time you are fifteen years you are more angry and wicked than you were when you are thirty. So you need to submit to the refiners fire. It's someone learning now. Yes, you refine your character. I've said it to you that one of the greatest need of the church right now bah is not more power, it's not more wisdom, is to become more like Christ. In experience, there are many, many, many, many people who look like Christians but. Are not Christians. And what happens in the body of Christ right now is largely selective holiness. Everybody chooses the area where they are free. From and that becomes your stress. No, there is a standard. You don't select the part you want. Are we together now to become like Christ? I said it. I think it was in Legos. I submit to you some of the most wicked people available in every territory are Christians. Nasty and wicked. Weicked in which you cannot imagine. We kept to the point of maybe even plotting the. Death of another. I'm not selling the faith life wrong, but it's the truth. And yet there's never been a time in church history when we pray and first. And do whatever it is. It is because we have refused to. Allow our prayer to take us. You see, there are many chambers in the spirit. There is the prophetic chamber. There is the refinery in the spirit. There is a place where you receive things. Just because you have entered the place of prayer, you must visit every part of that place. You can reject the transforming part of that refinery. And every time you enter the place of prayer is just let me receive. Plus Jesus might not say that, and you finish and say I prayed. No, don't tell me you have prayed. Show me the transformation that happened. I must see before and after. Then I know prayer has changed you. It's someone learning now the refining power of prayer. This one is a very serious one. Let me tell you, ladies and gentlemen, I have studied the human nature, by the grace of God a bit, and I can't tell you this. Every Body is looking for God in men. Own believers are looking for God in men. They call them employees. Every boss and cego I know one is managerial team to be people of excellence character. That is simply a secular way of saying they're looking for God in men. Every wife I know is looking for God in a husband. Every husband I know is looking for God in this wife, every parent. You see all these. Things about children, They are looking for God in one another. Others may admit it. Others will not want to say God. They just say a well behaved horsband. What is a well behaved husband? A young man came to. Jesus and said, good Master, And Jesus. Said, you call me good. No man is good except God. So when you see the quality of goodness free. Man, that man has had contact with God. Are you learning now, ladies and gentlemen, I don't know about you, but you must give yourself with reckless abandonment to the transforming and the refining power of the Spirit. And let me tell you this. There are at least six parts of your life. I think I've taught you that the refiners fire must touch number one, your mind, number two, your eyes number three, your ears, number four, your tongue number five, your heart, number six, your hands, and even your feet. The refiners fire must Every part that I mentioned has a profectic symbolism. When the refiners fire touches your mind, it affects your thinking and your perception. If the refiners fire cu refines your eyes, it affects the things that you see away together. If the refiners fire touches your ears, it affects your perception. If the refiners fire touches your heart, that's why you shouldn't to allow it, because that one it needs to roast out so many things. The business of your heart is a is not a quick one that you just live one day. The fire must stay there because that art you see is the control room of every man's downfall. The heart that's spreadly wicked. The Bible says even the possess or cannot know how wicked his heart is. And so you submit your heart. Do kid me purify? Am I just singing one time? Please do kid me purify? My motive till you they see sing it from your heart. Purify my heart, pure, purified my motives. Allelujah. It is my prayer, and it's a sincere prayer. First for you, calling on your global and then for the body of Christ, that when you stand before men, your life will exhue the character. Of the spirit, the foot of the spirit. People will ask you and say, what can of it be? Are you? You are kind? You are loving? Someone insults you and you should insult back, and you have the power to do it, And yet you let go. What kind of human being are you? And you call yourself a refined believer? You went to the place of prayer and left something there. The draws. A possible where we come from. In our family, we're all pastors, but we're angry. We can even fight ourselves. We can tear ourselves into pieces and go. For a miracle service. No, sir, allow the refiners fire. Who is learning tonight? Do you know how refining happens? There is no gold or silver that is refined still having the same shape. The first thing that happens is a melting way of the current. Then when it is malleable enough, it is purified and remolded. Back, even if it's to the same shape. That's what we call brokenness. Brokenness. You don't go. Before God as mog and say Lord, I'm a man of God. Just check if there are one or two things, you go and lie down flat and say Father, let your refiners fire. I don't care what they call me, but let that fire blow. Is someone learning now, yes, sir blow, I'm praying for you from my heart. Tonight's message is a serious one. Listen. I'm tired of the Body of Christ praying. But there are no results in prayer. I tell you why they are no results because a major part of our prayer is about receiving. Don't get me wrong. There is a place for receiving, but most of the receiving is because we are not changed. When you are changed, there are things you don't need to receive. Your changed nature comes with what you are looking for. By default, are will learning? In samacomer do came jani a yes soona he Garani my I. A king car. Let it be a prayer from it desperate hot. Tonight Jarani yes soonah And zamacomer dot came jane a yes. Soonah garani ia king car. Means fix me jani aking ca mm hmm. Coug running. The weight of glory you seek requires a refined you. The level of the healing anointing you are looking for is available, but not on this kind of vessel. The level of wealth you are looking for, many people do not know. Well. It is a spiritual affair, you know. Sometimes I watch with sincerity. I hear people talk about money and they downplay the spirituality of it. You are joking. I'm not talking of the realm of tea and bread. There are dimensions in wealth where it is spirituality that defines your stake, not binance selling. Some not binance selling. When you come from a background of poverty, anything better than it looks like wealth. But talking of a realm of wealth where you bow to something, not just binance selling. Satan did not say transact this. He said give me your soul and. I will give you this. At that point, ladies and gentlemen, it is a matter of allegiance, not just transaction. Con only are you learning. Yes, I'm going to give everybody the next two minutes wherever we stop. Even if we can finish for these two minutes, I don't know how you're going to cry before God. But we're going to raise that song fix me or God. There are no EMGs tonight. Cry on to the God of Heaven, and those of you who are falling online, just one sincere cry. There's nothing like your presence, Lord all I want to be with you. It's nothing like Allelujah. That song just came into my spirit. We're going back to me. Fix me is the song. Now, that's what we need to sing for the next two minutes. Please cry before God and say, Lord, I desire great weights of glory, but I'm asking you let the dross. Let the dross drain it like poison comes out of a wound. Someone lifts your voice and pray goes. Falling online when it's serious business or brokenness, stretching ourselves in. The spirit, chummy. Hapaa bah blah blah in jumma, fix me, hey my fix me? Someone pray, fix loss, fix all for keetness, fix and God, fix bitterness, fix compassive jealousy. I show you the refining power prayer, not just give me live, give me fix me. That's the prayer. Fix me, fix my mind, fixed my life, fix my heart, fix my motive. When the fixing is done, The giving becomes. Easy when the fixing is done. The giving becomes easy when the fixing is gone. The giving she comes gizy when the fixing is done. Your motistics, your. Tendency is fixing your heart fa all over the world, showing us as we crash. Fix me. And the Man of God what fixed me? And the love of God? What fixed me? Come and the process? What fixed me? How many friends? That is what fixed me? And they find out what he missed me? And they say, what fixed me? So, n my soul, you are honey, Yeah, you. God my card. The sum is prayed, a very powerful prayer. It says, such my heart, and try my thoughts. Let me tell you this. Until God marks the script. Of your life, if you allow pride to mark the script of your life, you will always get a. If you allow pride to mark the script of your life. If you are loved self righteousness to always mark the script of your life, it will give you a even when you are dying. He as a man of God, Ah, as a preacher, are we together? Heh as a wicked person. Hey, even in anger, Hey, even in unforgiveness, Hey, even in rejoicing over. The downfall of others. When pride marks the script of your life, it will always make you pass the exam. But when the mighty hand of God marks your life, even when you are scoring eighty, he will see se less. Press for the remaining twins here one minute will be seated shortly. Yarani yah soon now zama comrad okay. Oh charani ya soon. Yani now listen to me. Listen to me. I can tell you this. After praying for many years, I can tell you why people are not changing prayer. Please write it. You belong to a prayer ministry, You belong to a prayer group. This is the part to go and fix. A major part of our prayer life stems from self righteousness, im part of ours. Our prayer life is need driven, not communion driven, not intimacy driven, not consecration driven. And even where it is consecration driven, it is selective holiness. Our idea of consecration is based on the terms we have defined. It is only God who can define how far he. Needs to stretch you. That's the reason why people don't grow. And I feel sad for many young ministers who are rising, because most of them are people of prayer, but they have not explored the riches in prayer. Go and read your Bible, Go and read history and see how prayer refined man. Our defination of refining is the arrival of power. No, sir, If your theology about the refining power of prayer is the rival of power, then you. Are missed it a major part. It is the change of heart. That a man becomes a better husband because you prayed, a better wife because you prayed, a ceo who knows by the messy of God that you will not touch one mirror. Because you prayed. The energy came from there. Transformation first before power. Transformation first people, first, for days, first, for weeks. And all you're looking for is give me power, connect me to a destiny helper, so that men will know that I went to the place of prayer and I. Came back powerful. You wouldn't amount too much, but the character of the Christ that when men look at you, you. Are the clearest example of Jesus Christ that they can see not pretentiously. Your kindness is genuine, your love is genuine, Your. Regard for men is genuine. Let me tell you, I say it, agay. The body of Christ must continue praying, but I'm opening us up by the power of. The Holy Spirit, that a. Major part of our prayer in the Body. Of Christ is largely need driven, and that is not wrong. But that prayer was designed by God to be refine us fire, not selective, refinement, not refinement based on the dictates of self righteousness, Refinement that breaks a man and brings you. To a point of humility. Let us pray when we sell lot of spray, it's not just a call. To blind Pentecostal fanatism where we build empires around our hours. Of stretching the spirit. Nothing wrong with that, but we are creating a monster that will destroy the body of Christ. The goal of prayer is refining power. It changes you that men ask you, not just how many you pray. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with investing. In fact, if you're a serious prayer person, you must invest time dedicat. That time in prayer, even if not every day. But I'm saying I don't follow your prayer life so much if I don't see it refining you. If the pride is still there, if the loss is still there, if the anger is still there, and yet you are submitting yourself for a long time. It's because you are choosing the department of the refinery. You want to go to. When you get there, you allow the Lord to be the lord of your refining. He will take you to whatever chamber for three months. You will say, let's not talk about annointing. I am changing you, Lord, but I need powerful science and wonders. He said, live issue of power. Let me change you first, because the kind of wealth that will enter your hand if you are not refined, there are some of you. If ten billion, one billion, one hundred billion enters your hand, now God will just the angels, woul draw it quietly. Use anything we draw it. Let the person will send it back. But we draw it, we'll send it after one year. Let's walk on his heart first. There are people today. If they get half of the things they are praying for. Lord, give me one hundred thousand members, give me ten thousand members. Make me a global figure. The way they will criticize you in one day you will cause them using the name of God and God he said, no, no, no, no, no, let me refine you first. That was the refiners fire that Jose had passed through. All those things that looked like orchestrations like mistakes. It was his version of the refiners fire. By the time he would become a king, the prime Minister, he had been a refined believer. My brothers and my sisters, it is beautiful to see. A man God has walked on. It is beautiful to see a man who has allowed God to walk on thoroughly, thoroughly, thoroughly, not selectively, not selectively. Thoroughly. God is raising a people who are holistically refined. Not just free from lost but still having anger and. Nonforgiveness and competitiveness, or free from jealousy and still having lost and anger. God wants to touch every area, and we must allow him. Don't select the parts you like, allow him to refine you, and don't feel embarrassed when he tells you we need to work in an area. Not say oh God, God, no, no, no, this is God we're talking about. Please say down, Please sit down. I'm not sure we can reach it. I will just do maybe three and four and then we'll pray. We'll still here for a long time. We visited again. But this night's teaching is a serious business. Are we together? Very serious business? If you love God and you want to be relevant in his prophetic scheme of things. This is the secret. So Number one, prayer creates a platform for communion and fellowship, deepening the believers relationship with God. Number two prayer provides a platform for the believer to encounter the refining and the transforming power of God. This is where surrender happens. This is where brokenness happens. When you submit to yourself. Here you become like Christ's in experience and holistically. Number three. Prayer builds the believers capacity. To trust God. Prayer builds the believers capacity to trust God Bible faith. This is where the spirit of faith comes from. Prayer builds the believers capacity to trust God. Generally speaking, and count us create conviction. When you encounter the God of the Bible, it creates conviction, except but I know whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he's able to keep that which is committed onto him. Against that day. Prayer builds the believer's capacity to trust God. Let me tell you this, ladies and gentlemen. When you find out that your trusting God is shaking, it's difficult for you to stand on the promises of God. What you need is to submit yourself to prayer until the spirit of faith rests upon you. When the spirit of faith comes upon you, you become unshakeable, immovable. Someone learning. Now you can do big things for the kingdom when your faith is dwindling. There are five levels of faith in the Bible. There is no faith, there is little faith, there is much faith, there is great faith. There is exceeding great faith. When you see people audacious, almost arrogant, it is because of the God they have encountered. The Bible says, but the people that do know their God, they shall be strong, and they shall do exploits. Moses cried until we get to verse fourteen of Exelus fourteen. He calmed the people down, and then verse fifteen he goes to God and he says, God says, why are you crying to me? He said, tell the children of Israel that they go forward. He's encounter with God planted faith in him. He returned back and said, you know. What, let's match forward. And the red sea parted his and teether. There are things you would not be able to do in your life and for the kingdom except you have faith. Let me tell you something, especially in this side of God's kingdom. This side of the nation, you are going to need to understand and faith if things will. Work for you. Because abroad down west, with all your respect, they have a system that has been created that easily enhances growth, even though it's largely an Antichrist system, but it enhances growth. They have credit systems away together. They have all kinds of packages that they give to people. You can be lazy for one year your children as see eating. But in Nigeria here once there's nobody's giving you credit for anything. If your faith cannot produce it, you feel the weight immediately. You see. Now the mortgage system for housing is that it's infancy. In Nigeria, we pay cash here. If the house is one hundred thousand, you pay one hundred thousand. Even if you do an instrumental payment. They self that two years that's not really a favor. Two years is just twenty four months. But abroad they can spread it to fifteen years, twenty six years for instance. So I'm saying that you need faith, you need to trust God. The days that we live in right now require men who know God, not just men who know about God. Life will bully you until you know the God who sent you life will bully you. You will be bullied because of the color of your skin. You'll be bullied because of where you come from. You will be bullied because of who your father is or is not. You'll be bullied because people just feel you don't qualify. To be where you are. The stabiliza and your destiny will be your knowledge of God. Someone looks at you and says you you are not supposed to be. That ceo KI. Life is unfair. Why should this lady be the person to be running this bank or to be running well. It does not matter the people that do know God. Life is full of all kinds of unfair sentiments. People rate you and just feel it's not your children that should be in this school. You should not be the one living in that house. You should not be the one God is using. Unfortunately, they're not God. It's someone learning now. Prayer increases your. Capacity to trust God. Number four. Let's that be the name of the Lord. What does prayer achieve in the life of a believer or a territory? Number four. Prayer is the authorized channel listen to involve God and call for divine assistance in the life of any man. Prayer is the authorized channel to involve God and to call for divine. Assistance in the life of any man. Whenever you want to involve God officially in the affairs of your life and to call for difine assistance, the channel is prayer. Philippians, chapter four, six and seven. Prayer is the authorized channel to involve God and to call for defined assistance in or over the life of any man. It says, be anxious. The word anshows there is. A very correct rendition n KJB be answers for nothing. It says, put in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving. Let your request be made known to God. Then verse seven says, and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding will garrison will guard your hearts and your minds through Christ Jesus. In Jeremiah chapter twenty nine and verse twelve. Twenty nine and verse twelve of Jeremiah twenty nine and verse twelve, it says, then shall you call upon me, and ye I'll go and pray onto me, and I will hackn onto you. Ladies and gentlemen. I have taught you here that one of the highest proof. Of pride is prayerlessness. Prayerlessness is not just seen, it is pride. It is proof of independence, that you are. So sufficient you do not need the assistance of heaven. Prayer. Being prayer full is a sign of humility and is a sign of honor to God, recognizing that you are limited, recognizing that you are incapacitated, that no matter how prepared you are in life all by yourself, you do not have the intellectual the spiritual where with thou. To run your life on assisted. So you sob me to prayer. It's all my learning. Now call on to me and I will answer Geremanica three unders three. I will show you great and mighty things which thou knowst not prayer as the authorized channel to involve God and to call for divine assistance. In the life of a man. I don't know about you, ladies and gentlemen, but I've learned, and I learn this early in life. Take God away from my life and I may risk even to myself. Take God from my life, and I may risk even to myself. I'm not afraid to call on assistance every time, many times when I go to God in the place of price, a further your boy is here. You have given me. This is normalst walk. I don't have the intellectual wherewith that. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not onto your own understanding in all your ways. Acknowledge Him and you will direct your path. Be not wise in your own understanding, Fear the Lord, and turn away from evil. That's what the Bible says. Let me tell you this, ladies and gentlemen, as you so join. Your life and destiny, learn it, and learn it early. Without God, you will not amount to much. The Bible says, accept the Lord builty house. They label in vain, that build it, except the Lord watches over a city. The watchman watched, but in vain. It says. It is vain to wake up early in the morning and to sleep late at night, only to eat the bread of sorrow. It is God that gives his beloved sleep. It is by you we run through a troop. It is by my God we leap over a wall. I can fail alone, but me and God cannot fail together. It's true. It's true. And don't be ashamed to let the world see that. We live in a celebrity age where we like to credit results to ourselves mine, not me. When they see me, may they see him first? And then after they see the Mighty God, they announce a frail man who is a product of messy. And grace standing behind that mighty God. Unfortunately the world cannot see him because it's invisible. So they will now give the credit to this man. Look at me, This is all of me. When you see what God is doing and you see the man standing, isn't it foolish for you to imagine that it is all by myself? And I'll be twice foolish to believe that it is all by my strength. Let the world know, let them know it again that Joshua Salman, my los God is just a puppet doomed to fail. Cooinnonia, Mynor's God is doomed to fail. We are a ministry that has been marvelously helped. We call on the Master, and he came. He came with his jealousy and his terribleness and stood in front of us, but mysteriously behind us, directing and still pushing at the same time. That is the reason for the results. So next time, ladies and gentlemen, you see God doing exploits through Coonia. Thank God for the man of God. But please thank God more for the God of the man. Yessa. This is not patronizing you. I'm not a politician. It's the truth. It's the truth. I know this take away God from Coia will not last one month. I tell you that take away God from my life. I will not last one month. Chahovery see. You surround me with manaving to rees chehovah NISI you my mad you go me for me and fight my bads your chair. That's a secret. Ladies and gentlemen, Cheo, see when they cannot explain your results, tell them cheer the lord my banner, the one who fights for me. Cheo. When your resource look me curious and. The subject of discussion, tell them chevee che I know that much that he surrounds me with manyhing to rees Chehova, see your. My banner, you got me for me and fight my bas. Chew Listen. When you understand how to call on Heaven's assistance, your life will. Be a sign of a wonder first to you and then to everybody. It is true that you will not adopt, but your results will not stop surprising men. I tell you that when men think they have exhausted you, they will see another layer of performance, and they'll say, how is this thing happening? I've taught you the secret. You will shout Jehovah. Nissi and say, this is a secret, my parner, my defender. He brands his success on me, and it looks like I'm the one producing it. Jow Nissi. His joo. Me. See how God is ministring to someone tonight. I'm speaking to some of you because this year you. Will sew on the weeks of equals. I'm telling you. I'm saying it to you, profeticli. Men will look at your life and sah, how did you get into this dimension? When they're saying it, don't start bragging. Remember the message. Step back and tell them look at me, look at me, and not noting man like this. It is not condemnation and not not re man like this cannot amount. Too much, John see jo. See when God leaves you as a worshiper, when God leaves you as a business man, that you register a real estate company by February and by April you are doing business to the billions. And they say, who did you know? Who did you sleep with? You said, no, sir. He surrounds me with my name reads his Jovan me sae. He's my manner. You go it for me and fight my fatters. Listen, there are not There are not many answers. You know. One of the reasons why you hardly find me around interviews and all of that, because I don't have too many answers in my life. For most of the questions you will ask me, my answers is God. So I would sound foolish in the presence of many interviews, and I would look silly, but the answer would be, sincere, what is the reason. For this result? I will tell you God, what of this one? I would say, God, what of the next one? God? Oh yeah, be real? I would now say, God, You see it doesn't make sense, But that's my answer. God sir, God sir. When he stands behind them, man, when he stands behind them, man. What betides the person who stands in front of him? I have tasted of the backing of God. I know what happens when God backs a man. Mysteriously, you will make progress in a way. That can only be turned into meet table that talks of men. Notwithstanding the desires of men, notwithstanding listen to me, let me give you his secret hold onto his hands and ask him to hold onto your hand. Go on the journey. I can't guarantee you you will arrive. It doesn't matter what storms. You will arrive. Tonight is a prophetic meeting. If we stop here, I'm still fulfilled. I'm teaching you the secret in prayer. When you go to prayer, don't just chances if you are rapping. No, let it be a real communication with a living God. Why am incapacitated? It's a blessed a day that hunger and thirst. When you understand your insufficiency, it told Paul, my grace is sufficient in your weakness. If you do not acknowledge that you are limited, you cannot invite his power. How can I run this great ministry just by human intellect? It will not work. So it cannot work. So how can you run a global business by human intellect? With the sentiments of men? Someone can get up and hate you and hate your children who now defends you. Let me sing it one time and then maybe I'll just give you one more. Listen, you surround me with men to read chahoa me. See, you're my patner, you go before me, you fight my badoso. Yeah, I mean ladies and gentlemen. This year, those who hate you will give up. Finally, they will conclude that the campaign of hatred is a waste of time, because as far as you are concerned, God has decided. To stand behind you as a magi terrible one. Believe me, Oh, this year, prepare to hear many I am sorries. I am sorry, I am sorry. I was part of those who. Caused your pain. I am sorry you would have been promoted. But I am part of those who's put behind you. For me, Seriously, the more we fought you, the more invisible hand took you again. Wow jo. See that is the hand that takes a man from. A well and takes that man to Egypt, and takes that man to a prison and leaves him finally on the throne. That is the hand that takes a man as a e not to Babylon and exhaults him to become one of the six presidents, keeping him relevant to the dispensation of six kings. That is the hand that took a fillage girl in Shushan call her Dasa, and shifted every other woman and please her the troll. And so let me see who removes you. That is the hand that took a young boy called Critio and exalted him. That is the hand that lifts. Any man you see who has raisen in righteousness. Listen, believe us, let me encourage you. Do not fear the bully of men. God is with you. Did you what I said? No, don't apologize for his hand on your life? Uh huh ahah uh huh. There are things to apologize about, not that one. You don't owe any body and explanation for doing exploits. It is the finger of God, sir, that t ctimony of his messy. On your life. This is colling on here, Cheho. Need you go before me and find my pahadles. Shall hold. Anybody waiting for you anointing to go down is wasting your time. Waiting to hear you have gone down, financially wasting your time. I'm telling you. Waiting to hear the mini tree is going down. Wasting your time, Waiting to find a reason to dance and pop up wine and say we finally got him, Wasting your time. Your destiny is more and more in righteousness, more and more by the spirit. You keep smashing the records. You're upset by the spirit of God. I tell you this. Prophetically, nobody will see the end of you. They will waste your time and your cospire sis will fall to not after discussing you in the office, God will wait till you don't discuss it. Then you will lift you in a way that will surprise everyone. Listen, jeremy body of Christ, yemy believers. I believe that God is about to make a statement in Nigeria. I can lift anybody I want to lift. I can bless anyone I want to bless of human empires and the pride that has come from those empires have touched the heart of God. And God is about to make a statement. Every once in a while he does it. He picks ordinary men and so let me see who brings them down. It is by the hand of God. Mark my word. You will see this happen. Men who's rising will be mysterious, inexplainable, but undeniable. You will know this one's the finger of God. Men will rise in wealth. They will handle resources in a way that governments will call them and say, we checked everything about you. There's no corruption, but we cannot deny his finger. The man will rise with the annointing. You would press your spiritual his strand you will even be afraid because somewhere along the line his hand came upon them. We're going to pray. Listen, I'll continue next week. Call to night's teaching. Pat One, let us pray, pat One, rise upon your feet, hold someone's hand. Let's do some prayers. In a few minutes. The waters have been said.
