So today I wanted to write about your feet as a welcome a prosecute assignment from eternity. Callaba. We are blessed to have him. Allelujah. Let's be the name of the Lord. Greetings to everyone. Please, you may be seated. You may be seated. It's always a joy and the profound honor really to be here. Thank you, Thank you so much. I want to thank God, servants, the Prophet and angel over this house. Past almost friend work. Can you help me honor him? Thank you so much. Truly is a privilege every time I have. The opportunity to be a blessing and allow me to equally honor Dr Lumide Manuel and his dear wife. Honor you, sir, Thank you sincerely, allelujah. P Daniels I was at the office and I just saw him. He said he came to honor past and I held his and I said, the steps of a good man ordered by the Lord. So it's good to have you, and it's good to see you and all the pastors and all those connected to this vision. I honor you sincerely in the name of Jesus Christ, allelujah. I like speaking to pastors and to leaders because you know, according to scripture, every time there's a problem, whether in the land or there's a program, there's a problem with God's program, he would hardly go to the government. He will always come to the church. For instance, he said, if my people the issue of the healing of the land and everything that happens around the land, he did not even blame government. He went straight. He said, my people, the healing of the land depends on my people, not just the government. If my people, who are called by my name, humble themselves, pray, seek my face, turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven regardless what. Government is there, and I will heal their land. So it's always his people, his people, and every pastor is an aggregate of many members and has access to the minds of so many people, particularly in Africa and Nigeria, where there's commendable loyalty to priesthood, it's very easy to influence change because someone is willing to listen to somebody's perspective. And so if priesthood is fixed, then it is possible to change our nation, to change the narratives. And may God help us in Jesus' name, So. I'll be talking about a few things, just juggling along the team I was given. You know, most times in pastors conference or leaders conference, the emphasis usually it's on growth and expansion, and that's wonderful, but I always like to look at it in terms of quality. The quality of the ministers and. The quality of the products that come from their ministry is the principle determinant as to whether the church will be efficient in any territory. We can have a large crowd of people, but if the man who pastors them is ill trained, with gaps in knowledge you know that are yet to be closed, and then the people who are raised are not thoroughly raised like Pastor was sharing. If it's not a wise master builder over them, there will be a defect in the final product and eventually to affect society. Praise God. So we'll be looking at a few things and to speak on purpose driven leadership. So hopefully I'll start from a ship ang. Sadly I did not hear I was not able to catch up with doctor lumide Emanuel's session. I really would have loved to hear. This man is a master at these things, and so it was good to hear so that we can connect, but will take it from wherever we take it, and then God will help us in Jesus' name. Amen, and Amen and Amen. Some seventy eight and verse seventy two. Some seventy eight and verse seventy two. The Bible says so he fed them. Other versions I think NKJV or other newer versions who say he shepherded them. He fed them according to the integrity of his heart and guided them by. The skillfulness of his hands. He fed them according to the integrity of his heart, and then he got them according to the skillfulness of his hands. Jeremiah, chapter three and verse fifteen. Jeremiah three and verse fifteen. Jeremiah three and fifteen. And I will give you past us according to mind, heart or shepherds, and they will feed you with knowledge and feed you with understanding. Even though I'm talking about leadership, please allow my bias. My leadership would be. Within the context of ministry. I like to start my session by defining leadership. One of the things that I've found out is that people's understanding is enhanced when there is clarity of definition. Most times, in discussing thoughts and concepts, many times we take for granted. We take words for granted, and so while everybody is nodding at the same words is carrying different meanings to different people. And the first way to bring clarity is to unify the understanding of meanings. Meanings are very important from elementary education. That's one of the ways you train people. If I say orange, nobody here is thinking banana. If I say kat, nobody is thinking cow, because there is a unified meaning that was given to that name. And that's one of the ways that you help people to understand. So that when you say God, somebody is not thinking an idol, somebody is not thinking mammon. Somebody is not thinking whatever. You see that when you say victory, you see that. It's very important. Sometimes as preachers, we can take words for granted, and whilst we're saying something and people are agreeing. Someone's mind is to the east, another person is to the west. So let's start by doing a definition of leadership. What exactly is leadership? Many years ago, I used to travel to Ghana for my retreat. I would go to Ganer. This was quite some time and I'll just smuggle myself somewhere and just pray and then return back and one of these times, I don't want to say the story, but I found myself in one of the campuses in Ghana and it was a supernatural thing. Had the opportunity to help some people. And then I started mentoring some gentlemen there for a few years, and so every time I had the opportunity to go for a retreat that would be around or just gather them. Some of them today are in ministry, some of them are in politics, doing a lot of things. And during one of the sessions I had with them, it was a leadership session. The definition I'm about to bring to you was the definition I gave them. That was the first time the Holy Spirit inspired that definition and I found it a very powerful definition. And we've used it today in our school of ministry, and I found it a very very it's a very wholesome definition of leadership. So let me define it for you. I define leadership as the ability to harness and coordinate human and material resources so as to achieve a common goal. I'll take that again, the ability to harness. If you're writing our like us to just underline a few words, the word ability, then the word herness, The ability to harness human and material resources so as to meet. A common goal. Again, the ability to harness and coordinate. I omitted that word herness and coordinate human and material resources so as to meet a common goal. By this definition, immediately you see that. I'll give you a second one. But leadership has to do with ability, abilities beyond desire. You can desire to lead, but it takes beyond desire. It is a skill. It can be learned. There is a science to leadership, there's psychology to leadership, there's spirituality to leadership. So it's an ability. Number two is the word harness. That's a very profound word. And let me explain to you what harness means. It's a profound skill that any leader, particularly twenty first century leader, must have. Harness means the capacity to see. Potential and to invest in it until it becomes your desire. To harness means to see potential. If you lack that ability, you will throw away good people. Because of how they currently look. If you lack that ability, you will call good bad, you will call bad good. You will bite your finger for the rest of your life. It's a profound skill. The word harness is a blend between discernment, intuition. You see that. Now, the ability to be able to see treasure in trash and then to go ahead and begin to invest in it. Most leaders, you are not a leader if you do not have or develop the capacity to harness. And let me tell you this, particularly ministry, you have no right to claim is taking anybody's life that. You did not invest in. You see, if you did not believe in me on my way to the cross, when I'm having a supper or victory, don't expect. A sit there. It's as simple as that, a way together. So the reason why there's a lot of conflict in loyalty is because many times leaders do not harness. They're afraid of taking the risks. They suspect the people who later succeed who fail, so they don't invest in them. And then the people, by grace and mercy eventually find their. Way through the maze, the jungle of success until they finally arrive. And then we begin to claim is taking their lives And we say, well, I don't have any history of your investment in my life. I went together, Jesus said, you are. These are day that have continued with me. It's a profound skill. The skill of harnessing. The man who will later become your PA would not come as a pa. The man who. Later become a loyal, faithful pastor would not come as a pastor. Now look at Jesus for instance, Jesus the leader, not the Savior. Leave the Savior. Look at the leader. Jesus goes to pray all through the night, Ladies and gentlemen. The Bible says, he prayed all through the night, and look the kind of disciples is selected. If not, because it's Jesus, I would have questioned his discernment. How do you pray all through the night, then select an erratic Peter, a suspicious Judas, a doubting Thomas. But the question is was the mission fulfill through them or not? He was I went together. Now, the Bible talks about ordinary men who came to David in the cave of Adullam. The Bible says there were men who were distressed, there were men who were in debt, there were men who were weak, and they said that he will become lord over them. Then, the Bible says, David began to train them until they became the mighty men of David. The Bible would pick them one by one and give us their distinctive difference. That one of them was such a warrior. He held his sword and in one position he brought down eight hundred people, and the sword would not leave his hand. Now that's a skill. When the sword. Refuses to leave your hand, you have become one with it. One day David said all that I would drink of the pool of Bethlehem. As soon as they heard that, it became a match in order. They went and tore down everything in front of them until they got there fetch that water. Returned back and David said, well, I cannot drink this. You've sheard too much blood for this. That's loyalty because he was able to discern. If you have your opportunity to lead people, it's important for you to be able to discern. Some of the best hands that will come to your life will not come refined. It is unusual for a leader to look for refined people. Did you hear what I said? It is unusual for a leader to look for refined people. What, then, is the value of your leadership? The risk of transformation is where your the excellency of your leadership comes that you are able to see people and refine them. There is this treasure in ethen vessels, but that's the leader's assignment to see the treasure. And then like the portter working on the clay, like a blacksmith or a goldsmith, away together draining out the dross and know that when you cleanly and refine it, it's someone learning. Now. So sometimes most leaders admire, with all due respect. Now since it's a leaders meeting, they admire maybe other churches or other companies or that corporation, and they say, how come this ceo, this persor has people who are so lowyer. I mean, he would just make a desire, express a desire, and you find people running around. I can't tell you any garden you see looking nice is because somebody walked it out. All gardens are the same by default. They all have weeds. The topography is the contoys not straight. But someone takes the risk and the responsibility. There's no guarantee that the person you train will be effected. Even Jesus did not get it. Hundred of one hundred, there was Thomas, there was Judas away together, praise God, but he still took the risk with them the ability to harness are we following the next is the ability to coordinate. That word coordinates is a very profound word, so it's an ability. We're defining leadership. Then we've mentioned and as the next is coordinate. The word coordinates there is to make sense out of nonsense. The word coordinates there is to piece together so that it produces a rhythm. To coordinate means to piece together so that profit can be derived from it. How many of you have gone to a building materials market or you've ever seen a building materials market? Please just show me by wave of hands. Now, if you go to a building materials market, how many of you know that everything to build the house is right there? But there is their house in a building materials market? No, they sell them materials to build the house. What is the difference. It's not the presence of the materials, is that there's no coordination yet the cement is there. You can easily get the sand there, Am I right? The finishings you can get them there, But you cannot say because I have sand, and I have sent and I have what else? Again, Zin, do you have a house? No? The difference is the architecture you begin to piece together. I hope you know all the bones that were later formed in Ezekiel forty seven thirty seven. They were there, but they were scattered. There was no coordination. The first miracle that happened when the Holy goes began to move was bone came to his bone, not bone came close. Bone came to his bone. There is no structure, there is no victory, There. Is no army in this array. So a leader must know how to coordinate human and material resources. I'm going to be saying in a number of things, but let's see how far everybody say human resources say material resources. This is a profound skill. You must have the ability to coordinate human resources and then to coordinate material resources so as to achieve a common goal. The word common goal is. Very important because if you have divergent goals, then it's not leadership. Now, within the structure. Of the bigger goal, there can be several other goals. But at a goal is like a destination. You can only get to one point at a time. If I plan to go to Legos, then later today go to say Portarcled, then later go to Abuja, then return back to Legos. Even if I have ten places to go to, I can only go to. One place at a time. That's how goals are. You can set many goals, you can multitask, but in terms of achieving goals, it has to be one at a time. If someone learning, now, so one more time, let me define. It that leadership is the ability to harness and coordinate human and material resources so as to meet a common goal. You have that down, Can I give you one more definition. This second definition came from Dr Miles Monroe, and I found it a paradigm shift. It was a profoundly thought provoking definition. Because in this definition that I'm about to put forth for you, men are not mentioned. You notice that the first level of leadership. Has to do with coordinating human and material resources, but the second it rather has to do with building something within you. So here's how doctor Miles defines it. He says, leadership is the ability to discover, to develop, and to deploy your potentials. Don't worry, just listen and then I'll tell you so that you're right. The ability to discover, to develop, and then to deploy your proteent and to serve it at such level of excellence that you become an inspiration to people and in return they will. Give you a gift called loyalty. So that the loyalty that is derived from the people is not because you want them to be loyal. You are all about discovering yourself, living a richer and a fuller life, and that while you are about maximizing your own life, your life becomes such an instrument of admiration that it will attract people to you. Are we together, and that as they come into your space, they will allow you willingly to influence them, and they. Will give you the gift of loyalty. So, right here, this second definition has nothing to do with waiting until people come to verify that your leader. It has to do with reaching down, discovering that which God has put within you, refining it, and then serving it with such excellence at such a selfless level that you become an inspiration to people away together. And then the people. Come in response to your excellence and they give you a gift of loyalty. Both definitions are very. Important leadership by the second definition is the ability to discover, develop, and deploy your giftings, your abilities, your potentials, and then to serve it with excellence in a way that inspires. Others to be loyal to you. So I'll give you an example, a man of God who is all about loving Jesus. You are there loving Jesus, consistent in your prayer, life away together. You did not start with the intention to lead people or to load it over them. You just love Jesus and you are excellently doing it well. How many of you know that there are results coming? One day somebody will come to you and say, please, I need to find out how are you doing this now? The person who comes to you because he did not come to you meeting somebody who is needy. He came to someone who is already serving. He would come and willingly submit to you to learn leadership. Because if we limit leadership to just people, COVID already taught us a lesson. You see a lot of people who are depressed. When for over three months pastors did not have congregants, there was no opportunity. And because our leadership definition is only activated in the presence of people, in this case a congregation, many pastors felt like failures. They plunged into depression because there was nobody to talk to and nobody to say yes sir. So there is leadership that has to do with coordinating people resources. But there is leadership that has to do with drawing out that which is locked up within you, refining it and using it to serve your generation, and that you serve it so well that your life becomes an inspiration to people, and they will come to you in honor. The Bible says, gentiles shall come to what your light, not your call. You don't call them to come, They will come to your light. So the way to call them is not to say, gentiles come. The way to call them is to keep glowing. The Bible says, neither do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel. The brighter the light, gentiles begin to come. The star that came notifying people of Jesus' birth, the star did not speak. It just shines so bright. It was brighter than any other star. And the Bible says the magi saw the star, and they began to follow it until they went where Jesus was. And if you are that star, because we are that star Daniel twelve three. It says, dead that'll be wise, shall shine like the firmament of the heavens, And they that turn many to righteousness, as the stars even forevermore, and Paul was speaking. He says, even among the stars, one different from another in glory. So the brighter that light, the light. Representing your transformation, the light representing your growth. The brighter the light. It's impossible to have results and to shine, and then the world ignores you. The world has not yet developed immunity against results. It's impossible. Once there is genuine. Consistent results, gentiles will come to your light. Their kings will not come to your light, because don't forget they have results too. They will be watching. They're hearing about you. What they are watching, They're hearing about your business. They will aren't like they're not seeing body are watching. When Herold had that Jesus was born, he. Called a few people. He said, go and investigate. Is it true? Said by Prophecy, this should happen. But when your life becomes consistent, ever brighter, like prophabs. Force says, a time will come. The kings themselves will now come to the brightness of your rising. And how many of you know that kings don't come empty? Asks the Queen of Sheba. When she was coming to Solomon, she came bearing gifts. It is customary to meet greatness with gifts. Hallelujah, prays the name of the Lord. Now, perhaps I should say this. There are five There are five requirements for any vision to speak. If God gives you a vision, God gives you a mandate, God gives you an assignment. There are five requirements. If these requirements are not in place, the vision will not speak. Let me run it quickly. Number one. There must be a clearly defined mandate. Please past us write this down. Must be a clearly defined mandate. The Great Commission is everybody's mandate. You must find a subset of your mandate away together in the Great Commission. The Great Commission is not unique to you. It was Dr Mike Muddog who said, our similarities define our comfort, but it is a differences are distinctive differences that define our reward. For as long as you look like every other person, there is nothing that that wonder is not in you. I'm not teaching from a competitive standpoint. You understand that there has to be a clearly defined mandate. Everybody said the mandate? What did God tell you? What did God say to do? Hallelujah? Number two. The second thing you need when there is a mandate is that there must be a divinely inspired. Strategy for the execution of them. Let me tell you this. A strategy is as powerful as the prophecy. If you have a prophetic word from God, don't use your creativity to invent the strategy. You will fail. It is the same God that gave the vision, who will give you the strategy. I know that Jericho should go down, but let God tell you the formula. The usual thing is to go and fight, and you will be surprised that the build up of Jericho. Will be the reason why you will fail. A city that defence five chariots can stay on the fence. Even if it falls, it's another fence. There are many visions failing in ministry, failing in business, not because God did not speak, but many were not patient to receive the strategy. Everybody said the vision, said the strategy. One more time, said a vision, said the strategy. I know God sent you, but how I did tell you to execute it? It's important receiving the prophecy. Receiving the mandate is wonderful, but there is how you must do it to our use can be profits. The difference can be the strategy. Two of us can be evangelist. The difference is the strategy. Are we together now? A correct prophecy or a correct mandate and a wrong strategy can destroy you. When they invented a strategy to carry the act, they were punished instantard for it. The same voice that gives you the mandate is the same voice that must. Give you your strategy. Number three, the third requirement for any vision to speak is the platform. You need a platform. You need a platform. You can have a vision, you can have a strategy, but if you do not have a platform, the assignment of a platform is to alleviate you so that your voice can be heard. But number two, the second assignment of a platform is to brand your impact. Impact must be branded to be sustained. If impact is not branded, it cannot be sustained. Impact must be branded to be sustained. I don't need to mention names, but there are certain logos. As soon as I lift them, you know what I'm talking about. Are we together now? If I lived a Coca Cola logo, for instance, your mind will never think football because it was branded. Allelujah. Impact must be branded. And when I say branded, I don't just mean from a marketing standpoint away together, your platform, your platform. So every time we talk about impact twenty twenty six or twenty seven, the are we together? Now? Yes? That this church has If how. Many of you have heard of the World Solution night, what ministry comes to your mind? Why did you get that? Now? You need a platform? Now look at this. You imagine that you want to sell bottles of water and you have a bucket, a black bucket and a black cop and a sincere hurt and saying do you want water testing? And you don't say, I'm not a thief and there's no poison in it? Who is going to buy it? What is wrong? There's nothing wrong with water? That same water you have. Everybody's looking for it, but it's not branded. They will leave you and go and buy one that was not given purified. Well, but it was branded. A platform is very important. When Jesus needed to speak, he said, get me a boat. I need something that puts me in a position that is very clear and distinct. And those who help to create that boat, they got a reward for it. As powerful as his voice was, he needed a boat. Are we together? Let me tell you the advantage of a platform. Other people can rise through that platform. If you don't have a platform, you are great, but your name is not great. Both must be great. It's one thing to be great, but your name must be great. If your name is not great, nobody will come out from you. It says, I will make you a great nation. I will make your name great. So if doctor Emmon's friend Wire is great, are we together? But Holy Goes Christians Center is not great? What about those the sons and daughters that come out of it. Now, it's one mistake. I tell you this. I know that i'm speaking. You know people are following online. But it's one mistake that the West made. They focus on the grids of the individual, but they did not invest greatness in their platforms. So you will hear of a great preacher, or you don't know the name of his church. And once it's not there, the next person who takes over struggles. The leverage of an elevated platform is not there. It's important. How many of you have had the word RCCG is their greatness in it? How many of you have had the name by bad Debo? He is their greatness in it. It doesn't matter what angle you will see. Have the leverage of greatness. That's the reason why many sons and daughters can rise through that platform, because there is a platform and greatness has been invested in it. I we're learning now five things. Number one the vision, the mandate. Number two, a divinely inspired strategy. Number three platform number four. The first requirement for any vision to speak is resources. And resources are twofold human and Mattie else. Of course, I by now, I'm sure that everybody is mature enough to not argue about the importance of money. In the excelling, the ministry and the rest. If you are behind, I recommend you to doctor lumide Man. Well, he knows what to do with you. I'm telling you, he really knows what to do with you, especially now that they're. Bombing every oil place everywhere around the world. Allelujah. Resources. I know many great visions that have been stunted because of limited resources. God already said go and you are not moving yet. You are not in disobedience. It's not that you chose to disobey the resources that act as a vehicle to move you from prophecy to manifestation. It is not there, people, And then the financial resources. Let me tell you this. It is the rest usibility of every leader, including every man of God, to be financially intelligent for the sake of the assignment. In the school of leaders, you finance is a core cause. It's not an elective. It is irresponsibility to not be financially intelligent. In fact, it is a representation of a selfish art because you see, influence is an aggregate of the trust of many people on you, and they go the direction of your ignorance, or they go the direction of your wisdom. For their sake, it is important to be financially intelligent, intelligent so that you are able to help them and help the ministry. Pastors must know how to generate income from ministry. I'm telling you, you want to do much for the kingdom, you must know how to generate income. The alternative is compromise. If you do not lend God's way, provided you are doing ministry in life will push you. Eventually you will compromise. One of the dangers of luck is that it pushes you to the corridors of lying, stealing, and compromise. You don't compromise because you are bad. You compromise because you are pressured. It's someone learning now. If I ask us to write our prior request right now, what you would and there's a guarantee from Heaven that whatever you write to be answered before the end of the service. You'll be surprised what people will write. One money, two finances, three economics. It's still the same thing in case in case, it's challenged to shy away from it. What we need to manage is the lost and materialism away together. But it's important for preachers to understand that our world is economically driven. This convention happening right now. Only personal and the finance team will tell you how much has been spent and how much will yet be spent. And that's not the only program lined up for the year. And you are supposed to love God and work in integrity. You see, integrity is very expensive. Make sure you can afford it. Not everybody can afford integrity. You need to know how to afford integrity. One of the blessings of resources, both men and finance, is that it defends your integrity. There are certain temptations that are dead on arrival when God shows you messy away together. Resources also protect your focus. There's nothing I know that can distract a man's focus, like the awareness of the economic implication of executing vision. They come throughout the night and you are not praying, and you know the lovely toy with members. They will say, I saw in a vision that that bill is paid for. Then the world's sleep. They've seen the vision. They told you what they saw in the realm of the spirit, how the world will become flesh. They leave that to you. Someone learning. I'm praying for someone. I stand in faith with Pastor and all the leaders here. God who has helped men, bringing men and resources to drive the vision in this season in a very supernatural way. May God gravitate people towards you. But listen, let me tell you this. There are many ways, and that's not what I'm talking about, but there are many ways. God finances program. It is your responsibility to lend the ways of God the economic system of the kingdom so that you are able to drive with integrity. God cannot give you an assignment and not provide a structure. It is ignorance in learning His ways. I when I came in. I was I followed the latter part of the interview and I recalled doctor Olumide Manuel. There was a question that was asking and he was attempting to answer it. I think something about church financing. If I hope I got the question right and I was listening attentively. In fact, I had to tell them as it helped me increase the volume. I want to hear what he has to say. The Bible said, the wise man will increase in learning. Praise God. There are many ways God finances his program. It is your responsibility to search it out. You such it with meekness. You such it. Adaptation is proof of honor. You bend over backwards and find where the knowledge is. Every time the student is ready, the teacher comes. If the teacher has not come, it's because you have refused to. Wear your uniform. When you wear your uniform with humility and sit down, the teacher will come. If someone learning, I'm taking our time to press a bit on this issue of you need to know how to attract men, and you need to know how to attract resources. I hope you know if I talk resources, I'm not talking finances. I've prayed a prayer for my people, and I think I've prayed it in this church. But in case you are not there, let me pray it for you. May you never be so poor that all you have is money. Let me say it again, May you never be so poor that all you have is digits oscillating digitally on your phone or. In a bank account. In the name of Jesus Christ. Real wealth is men, the resources, and all the transactions that happen on earth happened because there is a man at the back end. Kill all the men in the world and open all the minds, the banks, the vaults. It is useless. What gives value to economy is the presence of men. So when God wants to help you, he gives you what. At tracks men, and with the coming of men would come resources. There are only two ways I know that resources come favor and value. Favor and value every time there is luck. These are the only two places to check favor and value. When God wants who multiply you, he amplifies both favor and value. Favor is men. Willing usefulness within the context of a civilization, not your usefulness to you, your usefulness to those who can reward you. You can be useful to yourself, but if those who can reward you don't perceive you as useful, they will not reward you. You can keep prophesying and valuable. You're the only one who believes it. The person who has the money to give you. If he does not believe you are valuable, you will be hungry. It's true. Are we together. Let's assume that this sister or this brother is selling baby clothes and I'm the only client that you have to will be a problem as far as. Exchanging reward is concerned. Please let me challenge every pastor here in the name of Jesus and every leader, take the time to study the economic system of the kingdom, and let your knowledge be aggregated. Let it be methodical. Don't gloss through a five minutes video, then add with a one hour video, then another controversial video that conflicted. At the end, the GAP's not light enough to bring victory. You can settle down. And there are two ways to be transformed into any reality. Number one is to look onto Jesus through the world. Number two is to be followers of them. These are the two ways we are transformed. You look onto Jesus through the world, and then number two, you become followers of them men who through their pain and your sacrificed, they have structured a system that leads to that result. And let me tell you sincerely, no hospital goes around looking for patients. If you are sick, you will find where the hospital is. Even for the man who could not work, God showed him messy by bringing people who agreed to carry him. The miracle never met him at home. We live in a world where pastors, sometimes, with all due respect, because of the yes I we receive every day, we want to be spoon fed over everything. Sometimes you will need to take the step of faith to learn. I hope you are not offended. Are well learning? Yes, resources it's very important. So when you are saying, Lord, send me, it's an expensive thing. You are saying send me. You must have the intelligence to be able to put together the resources. If not, you will have family crisis because you obeyed God will have so many other problems, and you will credit it to your obeying God. We have the privilege of hosting very large programs around the world, and I can tell you the truth. It takes a lot of resources. It takes a lot of resources, a lot of resources. You want to work in integrity. Integrity is expensive. You've heard me say the name of Jesus is very heavy. It takes resources to lift it high to the nations. It's true. I think it was not too long ago the church held a program at What's in the stadium? Am I right, sir? TBS? You see that now? Number five? The fifth requirement for any vision to speak is that there must be a divine backing. There must be a divine backing. It must be evident that God sent you. It must be evident that God sent you. Can I tell you this, It is not unusual for people to doubt you. You are the one who makes your calling, and your elections show that's not God's responsibility. You work with God to silence anybody who doubts the validity of your apostleship a possible. People don't believe in me. You are not the only one. Not body was believed in by default, not even Jesus, not even Jesus. But the Bible says Asks four thirty three. It says, with great power gave the apostles weakness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, and great grace was upon them all. One thing you cannot deny is the investment of the spirit God demonstrating through your life that He sent you God demonstrating through your life that. He's back you. And I'm praying for Parsos in the name of Jesus Christ. Whatever prist you need to pay in this season in righteousness to secure the backing of heaven, I release that grace upon you. Is somebody receiving, I release that grace upon you in the name of Jesus Christ. Supernatural backing, the backing of wisdom, the backing of favor, the backing of man, the backing of the anointing for signs and for wonders. In the name of Jesus. Never will you speak, and your world will be avoid again. In the name of Jesus Christ. You will call on one man and a nation will come in the name of Jesus Christ. Divine backing. Until God shows that He's with you. Men will not be with you until God shows that He's with you. When Elijah God the prophets of and together they dragged themselves and went on man camel, He gave them a chance to demonstrate the validity of bel From morning till the time of the evening sacrifice. They lacerated themselves and nothing happened, And he said look, you've wasted my time a whole day. Now shift And the Bible says he set up the altar, put the sacrifice, pour water, and called upon God. And the Bible says fire came down, liaked everywhere, and the people themselves they said, the God of Elijah paraphrasing. He is God, he is God. Let me tell you, these ladies and gentlemen, the world that we live in today, you have to trust God for grace, carry presents, carry power, particularly as a man of God. Don't say me, I'm not an evangelist. I have no business with miracles. They are not thing. It's not just for miracles. It brings validity to your weakness. You can't tell people may God healing, zero deliverance. There's no manifestation of the wisdom of God through your life. You must cry and pant optide. One thing with spiritual things is that they respond to hunger. They respond to test, their respond to desire. It's a way to bring what I give somebody who has not has not declared that he's tasty. He will receive it a point on the ground. So God will stimulate your hunger, but you will wait for you to respond. If someone learning divine backing these five elements. Now, let me say one, maybe one or two more things. Let's pray in the spirit for one minute. I hope we are learning something. Shalambrakis sa Barandos Theater. Give me substance, give me proof, give. Me presents, give me, give me substance, Give me proof, gave me presents. Larry's Show, That I Met with You, Larry Show that I Met with You, Larry's Show, that I'm at with You, Larry Show that I Met with you, Larry's Show That I Met with you, Larry Show that I Met with you, Larry Show that I Met with You, Larry's Show. Allelujah. Let me tell you this. I can tell you this for free. One of the greatest ways to attract resources of men and finances is the strength of your impact in the lives of people. God designed that. Way to the degree to which you use the resources of wisdom, the resources of power, the resources of favor, the resources of utterance, the resources of skill. This is the capital that buys money. When God wants to prosper you, it gives you beyond the job. When God wants to prosper you, he gives you what the Bible calls the riches of his glory. That's what he gives you. There are resources that come with his glory. The way we prosper in the kingdom. I don't know why God is still bringing me back here. Let me tell you how we prosper in the kingdom get the glory of God to come. When the glory of God comes, there are tokens that come with his glory one wisdom, two, understanding, three power, four favor, five. Skill, six what's the six? One again strength? There are eight of them. When they come upon you, you do business with those resources. That's what brings you men, and that's what brings you money. When God wants to empower a man, he doesn't call men to come, No, he places something on you. Listen, if I want to buy this, call this a product. And this is one thousand, How do I buy this? I get the one thousand, But one thousand itself is a product. If I want to buy it, what is the capital that buys it? It's called the riches of His glory, the resources that come with the glory of God. Every time the glory of God manifests in the life of a man, it brings two things. Encounters. You see that now, and then it brings divine interventions. This is how God taughts me on the glory and body. You see there are people who are benefited from this body. They cannot articulate it. They just know that I'm a man of God especially and is the reason why members cannot prosper. And they keep getting angry with ospasos, They say, what are you really doing? The man stairs in the secret place praying, worshiping building. That is an economic investment right there, that's a spiritual investment. As the glory comes, it brings with it wisdom, It brings with it power. One song that comes from that glory alone, from an economic standpoint, can sort your life. One idea, the anointing that comes upon you. And now from there, now you stand to speak to someone a billonnere who has never had a child, and you come with the resources of that glory and declare, and in nine. Months they carry twins. You see that now, But beyond you someone coming to bless you. The ideas that come from there that you translate to products to services, either virgin products or improved products. Let me tell you it is. The same grace that multiplied the oil was the same grace that positioned the bias. Did you hear what I said? The womb the same prace. As it was telling her, go and fill those oils. The same price was also scheduling those who will buy it. The same grace that sent you, the same grace bringing you the anointing has already put those who that anointing will bless, and then they will give back to you. Do you believe what you're hearing? The presence of God is not a waste of time? Men of God. That is how you become wealthy. You stay there until the glory rests on. You, and then you begin design the resources that come with that glory. Extra ordinary wisdom, understanding, capacity, utterance, favor, skill, strength. These are the resources you go and do business with. Allelujah prays the name of the Lord. I feel like praying for you again, in the name of Jesus Christ. Everything that has made ministry to not work or business do not work. I join hands with the graces here represented, and I speak to you from tonight. Let your story change, Oh, let it change, Let it change. Let it change. Ministerially, I place grace on your head let it change. It doesn't matter who likes you or doesn't like you. I place grace on your head in the name of Jesus Christ. Please be seeded. Let me use ten minutes and show you something. M let's talk about the Great Commission where leaders and we're past us. But let me show you something very quickly. You know so. One of the things that I've been bothered about is. The Lord has given me a renewed grace and mandate to disciple nations. And it's that that that added mandate has brought upon me a greater urgency to see the Body of Christ working accuracy, not opinions. And while every man is writing in his own eyes, the truth is the result is what shows Allelujah, Jesus left us what we call the Great Commission, or what we call Kingdom Come, or what we call Kingdom Advanced. I want to show you the reason why ministry is not working for a lot of people, because your degree of compliance or deviation from dis mandate is what defines your relevance as a man of God. Please listen carefully. When you find certain people at the courting edge of relevance, it looks like the light of God is upon them. It's not necessarily. That God just chose to put his light upon them. Like the moon aligns to the sun. How many of you know that in the economy of the sun, there's nothing like half moon q har moon. All those shapes are determined by the alignment part time. If the moon aligns, the path of it that refuses to align is the part that becomes dark. It will create a shape that we give it a name. But there are times, in a very strange way, the moon aligns so fully and it can turn nights to evening. You are at night, but it looks like where is the darkness because of the level of alignment. So there are some of you. The only part of you that has been noticed that the glory of God is radiating from is the part that has come into an alignment with God's program. So many many people, it looks like God just hand picked a few ministers and decided to bless them, decided to help them. It's not true. If you think that way, then it makes God unjust. Now there is the predeterminate counsel of God. There is the election of grace. But God has set a template for everyone who understands that you can find relevance in the kingdom away Together, I want to show you what is wrong. If the candle of the Lord is not shining upon you, if the light of God is not shining on your ministry, we may need to investigate a number of things. Generally speaking, when when a man of God is not at the courting edge of relevance, there are not too many places to diagnose. Number one, we have to diagnose character. Something may be wrong in the area of character, and where character is fine, we need to diagnose capacity. Something may be wrong. You cannot use a five kV a generator to power in stadium. It will not work. Sirt pray while you are oning it down. It would need to kill the jour and also enjoy you and waste your time. Some of us are five kVA. Our mandate is stadium like, and you are carrying that. There's no capacity, and so God himself will have to initiate a process of delaying your life as an act of his messy, so that you don't break down. So there are many prayers that will not be answered, not because the devil stopped it. You have been weighed and tried in a balance. Your capacity cannot go beyond a certain level. And then where capacity is not the problem, then we need to check alignment with God's program. You can have capacity, you can have character, but not be in alignments to God's prophetic program. How many of you know that the value of speed is when the direction is correct. When the direction is wrong and you are wrong, you are only accelerating your pain. And when you discover you are wrong, does the road change automatical? No, you make a you turn and come back. Please listen to what I want to tell you. This I have found is the reason why certain people don't seem to be at courting edge of relevance ministerially and by ministerially, I don't limit it to pull bris. It can be in business, it can be in career. Now, many Bible schools, with all due respect, have taught us that the Great Commission generally just has to do with preaching and evangelism. Man, that's wonderful and that's true. But the Greek Commission or king or kingdom advance is threefold. This is what I want to introduce to you. No pastor no church will really be very relevant in today's world. If you do not understand the tri parthide scope of the Greek Commission. First and foremost, the Greek Commission is a mandate that Jesus gave his ten disciples, but is being extended to believe us today. Are we together? A mandate that captures a threefold assignment. The first dimension of that assignment is world evangelization. That's the first assignment. The second dimension of it is discipleship, bringing the church into a state of maturity and stature. And then the third dimension of that assignment is societal transformation. You will not be relevant in today's world if you omit any part of this mandate. Again, let me say that that the mandate captures a triumparthime scope. Number one, world evangelization. This is God's program to the unbelieving world. God's program to the unbelieving world. It's not charity, it's not rehabilitation. All of those things are only. God's main program to the unbelieving world is their salvation. But it has a program for the church. The program for the church is called discipleship, the process that brings believers to a point of maturity and stature. And then God has a program for society. Are we together? Now? If you omit any of these three, it will affect your relevance. Without world evangelization, as more people are passing on to glory, there will be a problem with the church. And when it has to do with the business of kingdom, com numbers. Are an advantage. Are we together now? The church? And of these three, the major problem is the second one, discipleship, because it is the disciples that would do the first and would do the third. So anything that affects the second part here a major problem with the church in Nigeria, the church in Africa. I can tell you it's not evangelism, it's not even community development projects. Is discipleship. And the problem with discipleship is that the people who want to disciple are not refined. They have not learned the formula. Are we together now? So? World evangelization is God's program for the nations, for the unbelieving. World discipleship is God's program for the church. Is how God refines believers, is how reformers are raised, how nation builders are raised. Then territorial transformation now has to do with becoming light and becoming solved Matthew five thirteen to sixteen. You cannot be in a community and the community has not felt the impact of you as a church. No, there are many churches that are around a community for five years, for ten years. No widow knows you are there. No children the schools around do not know you are there. You are compromising on one dimension of the mandate. So there is go ye and preach Mark sixteen. There is go ye to all nations and disciple Matthew twenty eight. So two goye is there. Then the third one is not just to go, is to become a witness and chapter one and verse eight. It is Mark sixteen plus Matthew twenty eight plus and chapter one and verse eight that gives the full picture of the Great Commission. Now let me talk a bit about discipleship, because this is where. This is where my body and my heart is, and probably will find that place, and then we'll stop for the session. Do you know, ladies and gentlemen, every time, those of you who are into manufacturing here, there's what we call quality control, am I right? And then for those of you who do organizations. There's what we call research and development, or a system that standardizes operations. Am I right? Do you know the reason I was saying it preaching for a their Man of God somewhere in the south South. And one of the things that I said was, how many of you know that two consultants medical consultants can meet for the first time in a surgery room and not doubt one another. That means they don't know themselves. You are a professor of this, professor of that? How are you a just sleeping from Italy this morning? Okay, let's go in for the surgery and they will not doubt themselves. Do you know why? Because there was a standard system of accreditation. But how come I am past or a past or? B If all of us turn. Together, you're on your own because I'm not sure who trained you and what you learned. Listen to me. The reason why the products we are bringing out in the church are not strong or lobsided is because there is a corruption of the architecture we were giving. Jesus was the one who. Invented the process of building the church, and he said, I will build the church in a way and a manner. I remember, every house is built by some man, even though God is a builder of all. So when it says I will build my church, he uses men to build the church. Please everybody listen. Do you know the reason why we have believers who are not like believers? It is not the problem of membership, is the problem of priesthood. There is something we do not understand about God's system and how he builds men. So we are largely guessing based on who mentored us, based on what we read, based on our level of spiritual exposure away together, or based on our encounters. Is the reason why there is such a large divergence in. Terms of the quality of the products. Go across Nigeria, go across Africa, soub Saharan Africa, East Africa, Southern Africa. Now go to Europe America and you find. Out that there is there is there's such a divergence. And the assignment of the Fivefold Ministry is to bring the body of crimes to something called the unity of faith. Unity of faith does not mean doing the same thing that we should standard that is knowledge. So that believers in my Dougouree and believers in Legos and believer us somewhere in Cape Town and believe us in Ghana, when they come together, you can see that there. Is a unified level of understanding. This is the assignment of priesthood, and any man of God who is not about this. There is a certain annointing in this and time that cannot come on you. There is an anointing that comes on you because you are grafted into Christ. That's what does the inner work of transformation within you. There is an anointing that comes upon you when you discover your prophetic destiny. But there is an anointing that comes upon you as a reward for aligning with God's emphasis past season. This is what distinguishes men. It's somebody learning now. There should be fasting, there should be maybe casting our demos, maybe they should teach. The person does not have the syllables in his mind, so he uses his creativity. Or whatever he was mentored with, and he will produce. Sometimes he will produce a disaster or the times if he was structurally mentored. Are we together now? He will now produce a winning believer. He does not know what to do, Ladies and gentlemen. An intelligent God who desires to raise witnesses cannot leave you guessing how men now raised in the kingdom. There is a formula, there is an architecture. You are It's not left to your creativity. No, there is a way. How many of you know that? If you look at Cardbridge chocolates, there is a way it came about. Am I right on that the cloth you are wearing, there is a way. The tailor who showed your cloth, now if you want him to sow another one, he should be able to do exactly the same thing. Some of you have two three sets of the same cloth. People who think you are wearing the same thing, but you have two three sets because of his standardized process. How come we cannot define how to pass a believer like a refinery from point A to point B and guarantee with a lecture as precision that after three years of being in your church, this man will be a certain quality of believer. It is our compliance to this architecture that makes a man called a wise master. You see the wisdom there is the ability to trap the intelligence God gave. And for the next two minutes, I'm going to run. It's a burden that God put in my heart. I want to run with you the journey the least how to produce mighty men? And then what and what you should focus on? And then we'll pray. If I'm able to do that, I'll step down satisfied. Please pray the spirit for one minute. My time is off, but I just want. You to understand this. Alimiah, thank you, hallelujah. Amen. Now watch this, everybody, please look up. Let me. Let me oh help, missonderality. Now look up. Please everybody, let me just run that list with you. I don't know, I don't know how far you are going to be able to take it. So let me ask you to forgive me in advance, but I'm going to run it in passive. Now watch this, everybody. From a spiritual standpoint, by default, we are outside of Christ. We are unsaved. There's nobody who inherited salvation from birth. Are we together? Now? It is past us. It's important we know this. Longevity in charge without declaring the lordship of Jesus does not make somebody born again. Even if the person God rich out under you. It does not translate. You don't transfer credits that because I listen to you suddenly, it is not equal salvation. No, are we together? There is only one way, according to scripture, that a sinner or an unsaved person becomes a child of God, and that is through the preaching of the Gospel. Please everybody listen. Without the preaching of the Gospel, there cannot be salvation. Once it has to do with converting a sinner. The word he needs is the Gospel. The Gospel is a declaration of the Father's love that was demonstrated in and through the substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus Man and creation being the object of that sacrifice. And the Bible says, when we believe that report, please listen. There are three gifts that you receive. Immediately you declare the lordship of Jesus. Number one, the forgiveness of sins efficients one seven, number two the righteousness of God. You receive God's righteousness. And then number three you receive the way the life of God. Three gifts. Every person must know this. Anybody who gets born again right in front of you, they must know and you must know that this is what happened to them in the spirit. Three gifts. The forgiveness of sins according to the riches of His grace efficients one seven, number two they receive the righteousness of God in Christ. And then number three they receive the life of God. We call it everlasting life, eternal life all the way. But watch this the moment you get saved, there is a name you are also called. You are called a babe. You are called an infant. Even though you are in Christ, you are an infant in someone learning. Now, believers must be taught that being saved is only the initiation process of the journey, not the end of it. That means, if you believe that as a pastor, there must be a follow up system as part of the architecture that much as those who are saved, it can come in various ways. Now watch this. The moment you are born again, there are three ministries that must be introduced to your life. If not, you will never become mighty. Number one the Ministry of the Holy Spirit. Number two, the. Ministry of Prayer and the World. Number three the ministry of spiritual leadership or a teaching priest. I'm sorry that I'm rushing you. I'm showing you the formula. This is how mighty men are made from salvation through the preaching of the Gospel. They receive the life of God. And as they receive the life of God, they are babes. They are children and fruitfully understanding. If you leave them that way, you will not see the difference between them being believers or unbelievers. The impulses of the flesh are still at work in them, and so you introduce them by the spirit to the ministry of the Holy Spirit. You introduce them to the ministry of Prayer and the world, and then the. Ministry of the teaching priests. Onlce, these three ministries are in place. The journey of transformation is ready to begin. How many of you have seen a woman who gives bad to a child and then throws the child there and says, you better find a word of growing. No. No, the Ministry of the Holy Spirit, the ministry of prayer and the world. You notice I did not divide them. Our generation is choosing which one. We're making a big mistake. There is no way in scripture where you are giving the liberty to choose prayer. There's nothing like I'm a prayer person and I'm a word person. It's ignorance of mentorship. You always find prayer and the world. That's the Apostolic model. And Chapter two forty two to forty seven are we together? And Chapter six, verse four, But we will give ourselves continually to prayer. I want to show you how our fathers became mighty. This is the protocol they followed. Our generation is enlightening, but we are not coordinated. Our lending has too much gaps. That's why we are not mighty. We know pieces of many, many little things. The next step after salvation, with these three ministries introduced, is the journey of transformation. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the hardest part of a believer's johny, I'm wrapping up the hardest part. And there are three elements of transformation. Number one is ENLiGHT number two is renewal. Number three is conformity. These are the three elements of transformation. You cannot be transformed until there is first enlightenment, which together, then there is renewal. What is renewal and editing of your thoughts and editing of your ideas, and editing of your value system. Not everything in your mind is useless. Transformation is warfare. Then conformity, the discipline of conformity. How do you know it transformed? Believer? There are many indices. The first is character, christ Like character. Now, when you get to transformation, you don't stop there. So salvation is the first boat stop. The next boat stop is transformation. The third boats stop is empowerment. If you stay transformed alone and you are not empowered, you will know many things without the anointing to prove them. You know God heals, and you will say intelligently. But at the end of that Bible story, the sick who work out sick, Oh, I know the gift of the spirit can work powerfully. At the end of it, there are people in need of prophetic direction, and nothing will come for them empowerment. The moment you encounter salvation, transformation, empowerment, your name changes from a believer to a witness, a witness. That's the goal. By the time you become a witness, God cannot begin to define the geography of your assignment. He can trust you. You see that now. Don't keep yelling the issue of assignment to someone who is just getting born again. He doesn't need assignment, He needs Jesus. When Jesus calls me, and he does not give them a mission, he calls them to himself. Then he sends them to the nations. It's like talking to a baby about my The baby will marry one day, but the baby needs growth, not marriage. Imagine that you are talking to a four year old child about marriage and he say, he sayd let me tell you how it is with women and men. That's a useless information to that child. Past us, listen, the only goes. I'm sorry for the time, Just give me five minutes. But this is a mandate that God has given me right now to be able to make contributions to help strengthen people's understanding. If we return to the formula, we will produce mighty men. I'm telling you, mighty men. Someone can be saved for ten years in a church and not go through transformation or empowerment. He only becomes an ordained child. What do you think he will do with the members onder his care? When you're becoming a witness, then you are ready to go to another level. Now let me wrap up with this. The Bible talks about something called the fullness of Christ, the fullness of Christ or the fullness of God. Please, past us listen. I want to show you a. Formula God revealed to me. This formula should be the cost content in raising men the fullness of Christ. Have you ever heard of that statement in the Bible? The Bible says that we come to. The unity of faith, to the fullness of the stature of the measure of Christ. Every time you see a believer lobsided, there is a dimension of Christ that was not formed in him. Away together, please listen, everybody past us. You can go back and examine your members. In light of what I've said. You will find out that I'm going to be describing the dimensions right now, and this right here will give you an answer to the lopsidedness of the spiritual products as believers in Nigeria, in Africa and world over, any territory where you see there is no wholesomeness, there's no complete presentation of Christ. A dimension of the fullness of God was omitted in raising those people. How many of you know without being in the kitchen, you can taste the food at the dining table and know that salt was omitted here. Because your tasteboards were designed to detect it. You can look at it by observation and say, where's the tomato? Where's this and that? And how many of you know that rife? Without entering the kitchen and without being prophetic. From smelling the aroma, you can know fish is doing something in that kitchen. Are well together, there's seasoning somewhere there. That's how it should be used. Your training should be like a fragrance. The people in your community should know that this past is producing it. There's a texture. There is a quality of men that arising from that church. Now what just everybody? The fullness of Christ has three dimensions, and this is every pastor's mission. Your salmons in its entiety should revolve around this. Number one. The nature of Christ, the nature of Christ, the. Nature teachings that help build and manifest the nature of Christ. This is the first dimension of the fullness of Christ. Every time there is a character problem, this is the dimension that is missing when you find people who are crooks, people who tell lies, people who are licentious, people who aren't on serious. This is the dimension that has not been formed. And if you omit that in your message, you will not produce a wholesome people who is learning. This is where they learn how to die to the flesh. This is where they learn consecration. And by the way, our teaching of consecration in the Body of Christ needs to be complete because our consecration has two dimensions. There is abstinence, from then there is devotion onto. You cannot just stop at abstinence. Consecration has taught in scripture is abstinence from then devotion onto. So that you have abstained does not mean you are consecrated. It most telling your devotion. Someone learning abstinence from and devotion onto. You have abstained from sin, you have abstained from loss. But let me see the extent of your passion. The fact that you are not willfully committing sin, lost and all of that does not mean you are consecrated. I have to see where you have invested that energy. That's what completes your understanding of consecration. Are we together the nature of Christ? This is the most important part, ladies and gentlemen, I submit to you. A nonbeliever who is still full of flesh, candorly minded, does not need to learn about success. He needs to learn about death to the flesh. Empowering that person is only destroying him. You are fueling lost. It is lining up online in order of priority. That guy has no business trying to learn how to become influential. He needs Jesus. He needs to know how to die to the flesh. He needs to know how to crucify the flesh so that money will not tear him down, so that titles will not tear him down. Now the next dimension of the fullness of Christ. My time is up. I'm working on borrow. Time is called the wisdom of Christ. Aha. This is another place where we have missed it, the wisdom of Christ. So there are consecrated people who love God. They will still, they wouldn't kill, they won't commit adultery, but they won't build anything, and so they cannot see our relevance as light and salt. Jesus took the whole of John fifteen to drum on the value of productivity. If you do not teach the wisdom of Christ, and you do not building the people the wisdom of Christ, you are going to have marriage crisis because bills will not be paid. You're going to have the people will never grow. You cannot make mighty men from your congregation. Influence is a product of wisdom. Building anything is a product of wisdom. Our wrapping up their power. Oh, I'm a firm believer in the power of God, sir. One plus one. Should be two. But where you are under a bitter you can have the skill of fishing. The boat the net the right time, and. Fish will refuse to enter your net. To pray now, listen, ladies and gentlemen, with all due respect, and I have the liberty because I'm talking to persons. We're about to pray. Every problem you see in the body of Christ can be traced to the deficiency of one. So the nature or the character of Christ plus the wisdom of Christ, plus the power of Christ equals the fullness of Christ. This is what we should produce in people. So if I come and teach people on character, you see that now, And I don't teach them the principles of the kingdom. I don't show them these things. Let me tell you what will happen. The students in that church will fail in school, although they love God. The men will not be able to take care of your wives. You won't be able to manage the marriage crisis. I'm telling you that will be in that church. People will be beggarly. They will be poor, they will be broke. They will not have kingdom influence. And your church will tell on it because they will not be able to pay the transport to come to church. Wisdom. Now there are. Those who have chosen wisdom alone, and they have brought teachings. Please listen, everybody, as we pray they brought teachings that sell the wisdom of Christ, and they have produced mighty men intellectually, but they omitted character. So you find someone. Who can build a business in Ghana, but after two years you will hear that he's involved in fraud. You hear that he's a cook, because the fear of God is not there. It's called irat i donnai. He was supposed to start that lecture dying to the flesh. He can betray Jesus for one million dollars. One we love at Judas, and yet we forget that he has replicated it. I mean many many people have carried multiples of those things. Are you seeing that now? And then there are those who chose. Power and left wisdom and left character, And sometimes we personals choose it because it is charismatic. So the gifts of the spirit is working, but the man has no character. The gifts will attract noble and lofty people, but when they sit with you, there's no intelligence. Their fields two people being around you. So they come to be healed, and they receive prophetic consultations and leave and carry their children to where they are wise men. And you say oo, apostle, they come and receive miracles. They receive miracles because powise there, but you do wisdom is what retains. No Ceo will carry his staff and come and become more foolish because he spent three hours in your church. No, sir, do you know there are people that are wiser before. They left home. As soon as they are sending the grace. Of our Lordgesus Christ, five years of wisdom was subtracted from their head from a service. I'm not being sarcastic, and don't say it does not matter. Every young students can be around jumping because for young people, most of what they're. Thinking is power. But anybody who is thinking about the future of his children, character. Plus his wisdom plus his power is the kind. Of believer God is looking for. Please, everybody, listen to those who have emphasized character but left wisdom and left power. You can go back and complete it. Now to those whom God has granted grace. You can teach the. Principles of the kingdom. But the people don't pray, They don't fast, they can't even pray. They can first, they would rather so easy to omit for praying than first. Then there are those who have power think it is gifts. Someone can rise off from the wheelchair right now, and by the next day they're somewhere smuggling themselves, watching pornography. But they have power. You don't like what I'm saying. We're rapping up, we're wrapping up. I came in peace, so imagine that you will release a weakness and the guy has wisdom. You know what wisdom does. Wisdom attracts, so kings come. But because he's not being taught to die in the flesh, he'll be looking at the person's pocket, he'll be looking at this, he'll be looking at that, and there's no lasting. You see that now. The man who came with power one prophetic world, and you find a billionaire, would drive to his house in the night and send Neil down. I saw you becoming a governor tomorrow. And after five months the man becomes a governor gives the young boy one billion. Because there's no wisdom, he cannot build and because there's no character. I don't need to tell you those who spend their money. Are you seeing the problem now? So it looks like God blessed him to cause him. But it's the imbalance in his training. The most frustrated people in the body of Christ are those who have character without wisdom and power. They are the ones whose children have stopped serving God. Please listen as we rapp up. There is a generation. Meet any pastor who there is a gen z what they call them gen z jen jen Alpha. Thank God for people like Pete Daniels and all the people that God is raising. I'm telling you else there is a crisis. A crisis is going to come. Where as a generation many young people who cause God to their faith. Because they saw their father. He never stole, he never pursued another woman, but he could not pay yours who fies. He first hertily died of sickness. Malaria killed your elder sister. Malnutrition killed the younger one. And then you come and tell the young boy I present to you Jesus, He says, which one, If it's my father's Jesus. I'd rather choose an app because the app has proven to work all the time. I own the app and it does not fail. There's eight point six billion or two billion people on Earth, and Christianity is just a little over two point six billion, ladies and gentlemen. But many technological apps that are less than fifteen years, have covered almost one third the earth. They've brought an idea that has permitated a generation even more than the idea of Jesus. It is the generation that will cause the nations to come to Jesus in Mars. Must be the generation that returns back to that architecture of the nature of Christ, the wisdom of Christ, and the power of Christ. Let me say that again, the nature of Christ's character, the wisdom of Christ, the principles of the Kingdom, the power of Christ. Please rise upon your feet, you the covenant, keeping you the coming, and keeping yeah way, the coming, and keeping yeah way, the coming, and keeping see one more time, letting be from the depth of your heart the coming and keeping you the coven and. Keeping yeah the coming, and keeping way the coming, and keep love and blessed your eyes for the things you have heard. Please brain one minute, Father, grant me the great as a wise master builder, to build the fullness of Christ in all those you have trusted me with. Go ahead and pray as a wise master builder, as a wise master builder, the grace. You may not have a congregation, but you have children. You are the priest over your whole you may not have a congregation. Let me tell you this. Look at me, Please look up everybody you pray. Gone at the days where you feel certain salmons only have a context in the House of God. You can be a CEO and create programs out of this thing I've said. You don't have to call it Jesus. Create programs that are tailored at character formation. Pray on the programs in your altar, and then as a king you serve it. You can create programs that bring mastery to your people. Have zero tolerance from mediocrity in your organization. Zero. I tell you zero zero, and then power the power path, the power pad. Spirituality wears a body to manifest on earth. The name of the body Spirituality wears is science. The name of the. Body Spirituality wears his arts. The name of the body Spirituality wears his technology. Spirituality cannot manifest until it wears one of these bodies. There are six gaments Spirituality wears to manifest on earth. One of it is science, the other is art. So whenever you are praying, when the world is about to become flesh. In theology, we call it the law of conversion, you must know how to convert spiritual things in a context that blesses society. Allelujah, We leave this one for we have immitting evening. So by this this gather every call every body. In Legos and tell them fire is burding on the mountain unless feast in the spirit tonight, and trust God to take us to certain heights.
