Hallelujah, hallelujah. God bless you in Jesus' name. I'm happy to be in Ygo again. This is. This is happy new year for me in and God bless you in Jesus name. Thank you so much, Pastor Edwin. It's an honor to be here again and to bring God's word to his people. And I like us while standing to not just honor the man of God, the angel over this house, but I really want us to take a moment and honor our father, Bishop or no gogo, Let's give him a big God bless you. I was very humble. When I heard that he flew in all the way from London, arrived yesterday and then was at the airport. In fact, I was trying to tell the people where I come from. A man at this age should not be found in the airport receiving a small boy like this, but he has so decided to do so. And I truly honor yourself that I thank you, thank you, thank you, sincerely. I honor every man and every woman of God in this place. You would notice that I do this all the time. Before I teach, I do it because I believe it. Number two, I do it so that those who are watching will learn there is nobility in showing honor. When you honor people, it shows that you recognize that we're only bought products of God's grace. Allelujah. I truly believe with all my heart that this conference was designed by God for someone here tonight. I was very touched and humbled when I saw several people all of the overflows outside here. I think there's one outside of the fence, hungry and desperate people. I want to assure you that you came to meet beyond a man. There are things that men cannot do, but there is the God of Heaven, the one who satisfies the hungry, who brings water even to the thirsty. Allelujah. And I'm also honored to find you know your noble people within the land coming also politicians coming to participate. It's a very great thing because we lead out of our convictions. Whatever you believe is what you translate to policies, is what governs your actions. And so I really want to say thank you, and I trust that tonight will really be a time that God will just dig deep into our spirits and walk the things that produce victory and restoration. Let me encourage you to not be distracted. There are people who label so much to comeform meetings, but once they arrive, they hand over the concentration to the devil and they literally waste their time. They don't get anything. They don't gain anything. They love, They snap pictures, They share the grace and go back. Let your heart and your spirit be in this place. In the name of Jesus, Father, give me an encounter tonight. Can you cry to the God of Heaven by your spirit. Those who are following online likely to connect. The world of God is about to come for our profiting. A man of God is praying. Someone desperate for God is praying. Someone hungry for restoration spray. Indeed, God has anointed voices to speak restoration. They are taken for a pray. And non say and restore. Now God has anointed us to bring words of restoration. Heart opened, my spirit is alive. I am sensitive to your speaking. So God, speak to me, speak to my destiny. Someone is praying, Take a minute and speak, speak to me. Oh God, Granti la corporat scholar Brandah. Alleluiah, praise the name of the Lord. In Look chapter fifteen, I believe Jesus gave. Among the many parables that he gave, he gave one that is called the parable of the Lost Coin, Allelujah. And in that parable he said a woman had ten coins representing treasures, and then that for whatever reason, one of the coin was missing, and so she needed to find that one coin, because she was given ten, but for some reason one was missing. And the Bible says, the first thing that she did was to light a candle. It is vain to search in darkness. You would not find it. One thing she knew was that that coin was in that room, but where exactly it was she could not find. And so she lit a candle allelujah. And the Bible says, the spirit of man is the candle of the Lord. And when he lights that fire upon your candle, the Bible says, she began to search. It takes zeal and passion, hunger, and determination to search. And as she began to get a broom and sweep, we don't know how long it took her, but eventually she swept the corner and there came the treasure. And she called everybody to come and rejoice with her, and praying for you. Some of you have lost many things. Some of you lost levels of honor in the spirit. Some of you have lost strategic relationships. Some of you are about losing your bishopric due to carelessness and sensitivity. Some of you have lost direction in life and ministry. It's my prayer for you that as this fire lands upon your spirit, that in the name of Jesus, the Son of the Living God, you will find that which was missing, no matter how long it's been missing. In the name of Jesus Christ, you will find that which was missing, no matter. How long it was missing, in the name of Jesus Christ. Let's take two minutes and pray the spirit desperately, passionately, seriously. Go ahead and pray. We're praying in the spirit passion it be for the next two minutes. Practice La la ba bladah boss after la sabrantestally black chaprin. Someone's your praying. Sab practice la kabarantos coe, practice hella. Bra lack a barado in the name of Jesus Christ. Let me give you one scripture, will pray it and then will be seated. Amos chapter nine, Verse thirteen and fourteen. Please help us media. Amos Chapter nine thirteen and fourteen. I believe this is a prophetic word for someone. It says, behold the days come, say the Lord, that the plowman shall overtake the ripper, and the treader of grapes him that sow at seed, and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and the heels shall melt. Verse fourteen. It says, and I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities and inhabit them. They shall plant vineyards and shall drink the wine thereof. They shall also make gardens and eat the fruit thereof. And pray for you that everything that has left your life, by whatever means, in the name of Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God. As you hear the war tonight, let there be restoration. As to hear the war tonight, let there be restoration in the name of Jesus. In the name of Jesus. When Samwell met Saul, Samwell never asked the donkey that was missing to go back. At the instance of that encounter, the Bible tells us that the donkey began to find his way home. Remember, he was the same donkey that led them on that Johnny three days until they decided to stop wasting their time and to go ad meet a seer who had the counsel of God. And as soon as Saul met with Samuel, Samuel was not even talking to him about what was missing. Again. He began to deal with nobler things, the matter of his ordination and his election. And he said, but so that you will know that you really encountered a man of God, that which you are looking for, that it has gone back for someone. While you are in church, something else is looking for you. And that something else for someone can be a desired, an longing in your heart, and for some that may be the desire that has attempted distracting you from God. But while you are in the house of God, what you have been looking for me Find you, I profess side to your maid. Find you in the name of Jesus Christ, prospouse by your war tonight, and be glorified, for in Jesus' name we pray a man, please be seated, Please be seated. The Lord steadit in my heart to start with us in a very interesting way tonight. The subject of restoration is one that I have studied myself. I by reason of this work have had occasion to talk to people who have lost things, have lost loved ones, have lost opportunities, have lost relationships, people who have backsliding. And we're trusting God for a restoration of fire and grace. And so the subject of restoration is one that generally became everyone who has particularly served in the ministry should have been accustomed to, because losses are almost a human phenomenon. People lose time, they lose things, they lose joy away together now and so I wanted to listen to the things that I'm going to be sharing with you, because the secret of excelling in this kingdom is that you receive light Easicel Chapter two one and two. He said, son of Man, stand up upon your feet. And he did not have the strength. And but two says the Spirit and tad me when he speak onto me and set me upon my feet. The spirit and taed me, allelujah. God is a restorer. Now. The Bible identifies God with several names, and like you may have learned, the names of God are a capture of the various dimensions that are contained within his person. So the experience was this way in the Old Testament, every time they saw a marvelous dimension of God, they would name him after that dimension, so that if you wanted to see a replica of that dimension, you would. Invoke that name away together. So whether you call him Jira or Rapha, or see Kenu or Shalom, it's still the same God brought various expressions. All those names came because men saw spectacular manifestations of God in their lives, and they trapped those experiences in names. And every time you call God that name, what you are doing is invoking the power that reproduces that experience. Are we learning now? So when you call him Jira, he doesn't heal your body. That dimension is not for healing. That dimension deals with insufficiency. Are we together? Now? When you call him Rapha, you don't prosper financially and other dimensions. Rafa deals with health and cure, he says, and I will restore health and kill. Are we together? So it's important to know that God operates dimensionally. He is God almighty, but in dealing with men, he operates dimensionally, and studying the systems that govern his various dimensions. Will be your advantage in this kingdom. That means it is possible for you to know God and to know how He moves as far as a certain area is concerned, Say your health, and never know how God or the Kingdom operates in another area, say leadership, say your finances. You can excel in that area where you have found light, and so fail woefully in another area. Your knowledge of God in one area does not automatically cover for the deficiency in another area. Are we together? Yes, Job said, I have heard of the with the hearing of the ear, he says, but now my eyes se ad an that dimension of reality. There were things I heard about you. I have experience of results myself, but now I have seen you, Clara, I have come into a greater comprehension of light. And so we're going to be dealing with restoration all through my session, across various levels. You know that the Bible is full of people who lost many, many things. People lost joy in the Bible. People lost peace in the Bible. In fact, the Sammy said it this way. He says, restore onto me, not time, not things, the joy of my salvation, allelujah. People lost their peace, People still lose their peace. People lost their health, like you'll be learning. An example was a man called Hezekiah. The Bible archives several people who went through all kinds of bodily ailments, some recovered, some died away together. And then the Bible talks about people who lost money, nations lost whatever it is, Kings lost their throne, people lost their estate. Even those who were once with God as spirit beings in the angelic order, the Bible. Says they lost their original estate. And so losses are things that are scattered all around our world, and sadly it's even experienced even in the realm of the spirit. You will think if you were not on earth, losses would not come to you. But the Bible had recorded losses even in the realm of the spirit. The angels that fell experienced those losses right from the realm of the spirit. So it's important to understand the subject of restoration. Now we can lose time, we can lose things. The most expensive thing to lose, as far as the earth is concerned, is time. When you lose things things. If you have time, you can receive things back. But when you lose time, it is a great lost. And praying for you that everything you have lost. As our faces are, so are the various things we've lost in our lives, or whether you've lost time or things or relationships, and praying that whilst you hear the world, there will be restoration tonight. In the name of Jesus. Now there is a law in the spirit. My teaching begins. Now there is a law in the spirit that governs the overall efficiency of believers. I want you to please listen when you find a believer excelling in his spirit adventure. There is a law that governs the centrality of a believer's excellence. And most people have not learned that principle, and so they. Chase excellence across different areas of their lives while volating that law. And they find out that after investing time energy to build, whether it's relationships, whether it is finances, whether it's a career, eventually everything falls back like a pack of God because they keep violating a Lord that many of them do not understand. And praying that God will open your eyes now to see in the name of Jesus Christ p. Twenty three place from verse one and two. The first thing that God wants to restore tonight is your soul. The Lord is my shepherd, he says, I shall not want. Let's read verse two together. Huh huh. He rests tored my soul. Verse three, he rests torred my soul. This is the first thing that he restores. He restoreth my soul. Many believers do not know that there is a law in the spirit that your life will be an overall reflection of the quality of your spiritual life, the quality of your solical health. The Bible says it in Third John. John has only one chapter, the third Third John one now and verse two it says, beloved, I wish above all things, I will see all together. That ye prosper and be in help. John, I wish above all things above what I wish above your prospering financially, I wish above your getting a job. I wish above your getting children. I wish above your excelling in business. I wish above your getting a visa. Are we together? Now? I wish above your having you know, been a houseowner. Those things are wonderful, Soul. The first thing here is that the wish, this wish is not the only one he has. He had many wishes and many desires for the people. The spirit of God speaking to his Sabbath, I wish many things for you, but there is one that surpasses every other desire. It says that ye may prosper. Say I will prosper one more time, say I will prosper. It says, I wish above all things that he may prosper and be in health. But he now bench marks everything based on a reference. It says, even as thy soul prosperit that means, before God marks you to be successful in the spirit, it doesn't matter what you achieve, and it doesn't matter what you have, the realm. Of the spirit will have to vet the state of your soul, the health of your spirit. Are we together in order to verify if your success is true and lasting. That means, when you find an individual excelling in any area of his life, if it is at the expense of his soul. Then it is not true success in the spirit. Are we together now? Are we learning? This is very powerful? The business of the soul. Let me tell you this is the greatest pursuit and the greatest need of every man. Most people will not know that what they really need is the health of their soul. If I told you now that the greatest problem you have is a spiritual problem, a problem of your spiritual life and the health of your soul. You will most likely say, no, am, like, what I need is money, what I need is a house, What I need is something tangible that I can interact with. But that there is a law in the spirit. I hope you know that I'm talking about those who are in the kingdom. If you are outside of the king your soul, in fact, your soul is the collateral that you have to give in exchange for any other thing you get. You're going to be learning that the commodity a time comes in the spirit where everything you have to purchase to your life will either be as given by God or as trade dead with your soul. Because your soul is currency in the spirit, you can give it up for other lesser things. We're going to be considering a few scriptures, and one of it is the one that says, what shall it profit a man? He's speaking profit, he's a business language. What shally profit a man? If you gain the whole world and you use your soul as the money that brought that, you can literally go to the market of life and destiny and exchange your soul for money, exchange your soul for fame. You don't have to be demonic, and you don't have to be occultic. Many people are doing it. The idea of selling your soul. Most times when we hear it, we think it is something that you have to be occulty to say, Okay, take my life and give me money. No, many people are already doing it. One of the ways you know true success is to find out what happens to your spiritual state as you rise. If you find out, you can know who is behind your success by looking at the consequence of that rising on your spiritual life. The moment you find out that for every increase, every open door, every advancement, your spiritual life is suffering. You are transacting with Babylon, this demonic satanic system. You may not know. Satan took Jesus off the mountain and he said, bow to me. That is how you sell your soul. You don't sell your soul by giving it. You sell your soul by bowing to something. It's someone learning. Now whatever you bow to. A transaction happened in the spirit. Satan came and met Jesus and said, look, all of the glories of this world I have it, but I don't need it. What I need is your loyalty, your allegiance. You came as God incanate, bow to me and I can give you everything he was willing to relinquish part of what Jesus was coming to die to receive. Why follow the route of the cross when you can just trade your soul and you have it? And there are many people today who do not understand this system. In the spirit, What shalie profit a man, What shali profit a man of God? What shale profit a worshiper? What shalet profit a business man? What shale profit a student a career person. If you gain that kind of business man, you will not even know what you are losing because you'll be focused on what you are gaining. But he's saying, while you are gaining, you are losing something else. What your attention is what you are gaining. You can gain fame, you can gain increase, you can even gain speed, and mistaking that gain for true profit. Only that when you check your soul you will find out that it died because you grew, It died because increase came, It died because a door opened. At that point, you know that sentence comed you. He came and sold you something distracted you, and you thought you were gaining whereas you were dying. Allelujah. This is a lot that I found out in my life because you see, like Reverend she before I came up, every human being wants to make progress. I think I've said it in this charge that psychologists teach that one of the keys for measuring happiness is progress, or a sense of it. To the degree to which you perceive you are making progress, that is the degree to which you will be happy. If you believe or perceive that there's some level of stuntedness in your life or in ministry, if you are responsible, it should be a source of concern. Am I right on that? Yes, there's no woman who gives bed to a baby and expects that baby to start running, walking, talking in one day. But after a year, maybe one year and a half, two years, if the baby cannot talk, the baby cannot walk, the baby cannot do whatever he immediately he becomes a medical condition. Are we together? Because instinctively she knows that that baby has now assumed is take where he or she should begin to at least motion the things that make for growth. So when people become tagnated. And stunted, whether as a man of God, as a businessman, as a carrier person, generally becomes a source of concern. Now, let me tell you this, Satan does not attach you every day. Know this, there are days that even if you call Sertan to attach you, you will say, I'm not on duty. He's not a fool. Satan knows that there is something about the desperation of men. The desperation of men is his marketing strategy for this exchange. Listen carefully, for as long as you are a young person, having someone to sponsor you, taking care of you, it may be difficult to come to certain temptations because there are harvests over seats you did not so, so when Satan comes, it is easy to drive away that temptation. But the day you are now on your own and there's house rent hello, and the price of fuel is whatever it is. Now in the midst of that desperation, Satan comes. The Bible calls me a thief, and only a foolish thief steals all the time. Thieves don't steal all the time. There is timing and intelligence and preparation. Are we together? There is still where you are not around, or while you are asleep, he say, while men slept. Now many of you, I am saying this because this transaction that has destroyed you now startled at the point of your pain and your desperation. Every time believers are in want, every time believers are crying for more, be careful. It's not only God's attention you are calling. You are also calling the attention of the rem of the spirit, because they know that desperation makes men vulnerable. You are desperate for marriage, you are desperate for a child. You are desperate for a job, you are desperate for annointeen, you are desperate for increase. If someone comes to meet a young boy and says, come, I want to take you somewhere and conjures some demonic things and give you power, that temptation will not work because the boy is not desperate. It is dangerous to try to give people things when they're not hungry enough. So there is a hunger level that set and waits for until he perceives that longer. He will not come to attack you away together. Now, yeah, the day he sees that the financial issue is becoming a family, that's when he comes with his options, because chances are excellent that you will now listen to it. What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world? Have you seen someone trying to look for water when he's testy? I mean, if you bring me a drum of water. Now, I'm not that testy at best, I will just take one bottle, and that's fine. I way together. But when I am really tasty, like onto death, if you bring water, sometimes you can tell me this bottle is on hundred thousand. Because of my desperation, I become vulnerable to you. I don't want to die, and even do I know you are cheating me. It's not on hundred thousands, But I prefer my pain solved. This is how set and trapped many people. He knows that there's something that befalls all men is called exhaustion. Please listen, listen. I want to show you a transaction that has been happening to your spirit man that you are not even aware of. Because some of us. You have to kill that business with the spirit. Now destroy that. Business, we say that now, else you will find out that everything you are trying to build now will eventually fall because you are violated alone I wish are both all things that you. Prosper and to be in health even as they's so prospered. There are men of God, for instance, who want power justifiably so want increase one open doors. Many of you have come to receive importations and you will receive. Many of you have come to receive healings. You have come to receive. You know breakthroughs and all kinds of things. And I tell you in the name of Jesus Christ, every desire you came here with, God will honor you are and even so passual expectations away together. But there is a spiritual Lord that we must trust God for grace to open our eyes to see that the health of your spirit, the health of your soul, is the power point that controls everything around your life and destiny. And it does not matter how healthy you think you are financially healthy. If it is at the expense of your spiritual life you are holding shadows, Eventually you will lose it. You have influence, you have positions, you have titles, you have whatever kind of accomplishment. Listen, in my little walk, I have seen people who you would maybe proports that you wanted your life to be like them. Their life looked complete, it looked excellent, It looked filled with all kinds of things. But there was one thing that was missing. While they were in pursuit of this thing, Satan came crashed in. On their desperation, and he received their soul, their allegiance, their worship, their time, and ask them to do every other thing. I can't tell you if you can surrender your soul to say that you will not attack any part of your life again. He doesn't need any other thing from you again. The reason why he touches you finances, it's not because of finance. He's touching something else through your finance. The reason why he touches your health is not because of your health. Satan does not need money, He does not need increase. He does not need a child. Why should he lock the womb of a woman. What does it do to him? Does he need the children? No? What Satan wants is to allow time or pain push you to that point of desperation. When you become desperate, he comes as a negotiator. Give me your soul, and I can give you any other thing, and you may not. He won't come and say give me directly. Let me tell you how he comes by your exhaustion in prayer. I'm tired of this prayer. I can't go and pray again. Something is happening. If again is happening in the spirit without your knowing, away together you wake up in the morning and to open the scripture. Honestly, look, I'm overwhelmed by my problem. Something is happening. It is gradual. Then a call comes from someone and he says, look, it's just that I don't want to tell you, but there's somebody. Aha. Two years ago, you'd have said, God forbid, don't talk to me about anything. But two years later, in the face of desperation, he said, our boy, it's true. I'm forty nine years old now I don't have my own child. He said, there's somebody. It's not like he's bad exactly. He doesn't really do anything bad, but it's just a met I don't understand him. But it's not right. I'm not sure I've seen anything that is directly evil. And the Spirit of God is telling you what you see. Your desperation has caused Satan to so close the door of your sensitivity you cannot even know that this is you are entering into a faller snare, and then you do not know At that point. Compromise starts gradually until you find yourself in the heart of the things that have violated your convictions. You have sold your soul. Your prayer life dies, your world life dies. And then in exchange you will see that a semblance of increase comes. Satan is not stupid. If he makes everything fail in your life, it will lead to conviction, repentance, brokenness, and a retreat. So he will not crumble every aspect of your life like that. He will allow you to be enjoying breakthrough. All of a suddenly a job came. You even danced around it, not knowing that that job was an arrow. Did you what I said? When the Bible talks about arrows that fly, he's not talking about a sharp object, though there are many things we call breakthroughs that are arrows. It was targeted at your spiritual life. The job came. But from the day the job came, you can't remember praying again from. The day the job came. The moment the Holy Spirit wants your time, they say, look, we demand this and that. Are you ready for increase or not? And you remember more money, God I will attend to you later on. There are many people who have violated this law of preserving the health of their soul, and this includes preachers. There are times that when the devil wants to destroy a man of God, he does not bring luck. He brings abundance and ministerial open doors not orchestrated by God, doors will open in a very strange way. Those who open that don't depend on your prayer life. Those who open that don't depend. On your first team. Those who opened that don't depend on your engaging the world. Whether you obey God's world or not, those doors are opening here. It's an attack when you find out that certain results are coming without your engaging the world of God consistently. It is an attack by Satan because he knows that it will keep you complacated, and that's how he destroys you. Are we together, whether I pray or not. Seems like the favor is coming whether I pray or not. Why do I need to pray? It looks like I can share the world every time. And at that point you. Will not see the value of prayer again. You will not see the value of fasting again. Who is learning tonight? You will not see the value of working with God, because, after all, you are surrounded by such abundance. Just when the Holy Spirit begins to pricky your heart, you say, can't we get back to the secret place, And a lot of ten million just enters your account. And he said, what I'm doing well, I'm doing well. I always found out why a rich man will be called a fool, because foolishness. And wealth don't go together. But there was such a man in the Bible called a rich fool. Do you know what was foolish? Now? I know he did business with somebody to get that wealth, and that business ate up his soul. He said, my soul fine rest, not knowing that he had everything in that room minors his soul. Jesus called him a fool because when he checked his entire life, found money, but his soul had gone. His allegiance and his worship. He transferred it from worship to God almighty worship to things. This is a very simple principle. You have to learn to know ladies and gentlemen. At the back of many people's tragedy. You know this thing they call rise and fall, it's not totally demonic. It is the natural consequence of violating this law and pursuing a lot of things. So you hold on to what looks like result. But because your soul is dead, it is not powered by your passion for God. It is not powered by your zeal for God. You'll become a celebrity and one day you will find out that you are like a fan with no power. It's just rotating itself to a stop and need to stop just when the. Audience is ready to clap for you, and you'll find out that your life has gone back to square one. Allelujah. I wish above all things sins that God taught me in my life. When you want to grow by God, let me tell you how he starts. It doesn't matter whether God is calling you to be a kingdom financier, a prophetess, an apostle, a businessman. Once you come to the school of the Spirit, everybody starts with the same cause. It is as you grow that you are now diverge to your various departments in the spirit. The person who is going to become a prayer warrior, the person who is going to become a kingdom biloonnaire. Are we're learning the person who will be a healing evangelist, the person who is going to be a professor doing great things for God. The person who is going to be a captain of industry. Once you come to the school of the Spirit, all of you start from the same training. It is as you grow the Holy Spirit begins to diverge you to various trainings. As far as his call an election and or donation for you is concern. But let me tell you how Satan deceives people. The moment you want to do business with Satan, he focuses on your desperation and you're lost, not your passion. He wants to distract your passion for God. So the first thing he does is to examine your vulnerabilities with terms are fashion. What does this person like at this point, this lady is desperate for marriage. At this point, this lady is desperate for a child. At this point, this lady is desperate for increase. At this point, this young man is desperate for the prophetic since he had a dream that he was a prophet. All he wants is that Manto. Satan's attack will be fashioned around your desires. Satan will never waste his time creating a desire around something that does not connect to you, or an attack that does not connect to your lost are learning now? If I am not hungry, If you want to tempt me with food, you are wasting my time. Are wasting your own time too? Are we together? Imagine that you bring baby food, what children eat, maybe milk, have something, and you said, I possible, I want to tempt you with this. I will look at you in pity. I know something is wrong with you because that temptation cannot work, because temptation requires something from you. To connect with it. Are we learning now? Many of us right now? You came for this conference, and the truth is that although you have the call of God upon your life, you are beginning to transact with this system, this godless system, and transact with the devil, even without knowing. How do I know that? Because you are having a semblance of increase. But when we look at your life from a spirit standpoint, your spirit man is dying from the day doors began to open. As a man of God. You cannot remember having a personal retreat for God again. But your name is spreading far. I tell you it is not breakthrough. It is an attack. That thing you call open door is an arrow it is designed to destroy your life because it do you know, even the only Church faced distemptation. The Bible says, when Increase was coming, quarrel it was set, and that planted that seed among the people. Certain women began to quarrel Act Chapter six. Look, they are victimizing us. The devil wanted to penetrate their Postolic community. He said, how do I come now? These guys are sillous serving the Lord? How do we deal with this? And he said, you know what, Let's use welfare. Let's begin to plant bitterness. Let's begin to plant anger. Let's begin to plant jealousy. It's someone learning now. And he planted that seed, and the quarrel began to grow. And when the Apostles came, the goal was not to see the people evenly. The goal was to take their Postolic community away from the things that keep their spirit robust. The goal of that attack was not to bring all that necessarily. Satan is not interested in who eats or who does not eat. But the apostles detected it as Aha. We now see that something the consequences of Increase now wants to tell on our spiritual life is set a point orders in this business. But as for us, we have found what keeps us relevant. We have found what keeps us in fire. It says we will give ourselves continually Acts six and US four to prayer and to the ministry of the world. Set and lost that temptation. Let me tell you what would have happened to many of us. You get to a point where he said, no, no, no, no no, I've labored too much. I can't build this ministry and watch it crumble. You know what, let me take a retreat from my time of prayer and the rest. Let's deal with administrative issues. When Satan finds you in that state, he starts multiplying the problem in your church, and before you know it, you are becoming a businessman and administrator every other things, at the expense of your prayer, at the expense of the world, at the expense of your growth. Because you are still in. Church does not mean you are with God. You will not know that you have left the place of your consecration, the place of power, and the place of grace. Most people do not know why they lose things. Eventually, I am telling you that the attacks that come to you, usually they happen as an end point after Satan has distracted you away, it doesn't matter what you are celebrating his shadows. It will take time and drop. That's why you find out a man can be ministry for a very long time, supposedly doing well, but at the expense of his spiritual life. Satan does not mind your fifteen years success. It does not intimidate him because in one year, after he has laid hold on that which keeps you relevant, you can crumble in one year. That what you're built in fifteen years can crumble in one year. Hallelujah. What shall it profit a man if he should gain the whole world? When I started my work with God, I had needs. I had financial needs, I had a lot of other needs. But the way God trained us was he took our eyes away from everything, including ministry. Including ministry, the focus was on him. The focus was not on power. The focus was not on annointing. The focus was not on healing. The focus was not on greatness. The focus was not on fame. Look at me. The focus was not on becoming a great man. The focus was not on breakthrough and revelation. When God calls you, let me tell you what he does. He takes your mind away from every other thing until your case, your eyes is fixed on him. That's when your progress begins. In the spirit. When he was going to call Moses, look at me, how did you start the journey with Moses? The first thing he did was his similar a bonning bush. He never spoke to Moses about Egypt and all of these things until he got his attention. Only God knows how long he took. Moses. Moses said, I will turn aside. Something else had my case, but I will turn aside and see. This great side. And when he saw, he said, that's it. Remove your shoes where you stand his holy crown. And he began this thing until Moses became a sign and a wonder. I know that many of us came to receive restoration and breakthrough, but let me tell you this. The first restoration you. Need tonight is not financial restoration, inasmuch as that is important. The first restoration you need tonight is not held. The first restoration you need tonight is not relationships. We are going deep down to show you what went wrong. It's like that. Not in a vehicle that has refused to own. He used to be a beautiful veku carried many people, and for a reason you cannot understand, he just stopped. The tires still look fine, the pain still looks fine, the stearing still looks fine. The stereo is still bringing music. But the guy is not moving. I will tell you what is wrong. Even as that soul prospers, Satan has taken advantage of your vulnerability and your desperation and taking away passion. Do you know the average young person in church, the moment you bring teachings on presence, power surrender, immediately they shut down. It is an attack. They do not even know that it's an attack. Once you bring a problem. Most people who prefer impartition a thousand times to the teachings that pull them to become powerful. Is the reason why people fall down under the influence of oil and hands and rise up. And you cannot tell what changed. Because for someone while he's seeing a man of God, he's thinking, if I receive this annointing, now, all these guys that think I'm not, they will see what will happen. That that kind of thinking is already revealing something to you, that something is wrong. God cannot endorse that kind of thing. Are we together? I look at my life today by the message of God. And sometimes when I'm alone, tears just run down my eyes and I said, my God, I thank God for this one training to focus on the health of your soul. For some of you, you began this work with God ten years ago. If you had followed this pattern, you would have been mighty by now. But you became distracted in the training because you thought the training was for men of God. And since you are not a man of God, you said, my own is I'm a business man. All this thing about prayer the word shot my own is God, don't will do money. At the end of you, who is the kingdom financial? You still not have the money, And the one you left at the altar praying now has the resources and still looking at you and say you are still here because in this kingdom everything multiplies as the health of your soul. Your spirit man tells, if it is God that increases you, even if God is calling you to be a kingdom financier, that training bard will have nothing to do with money until you die to self and get to a point where you can trust you with everything. Are we together? Many believers in church really do not understand the ways of the spirit. And so most times, with all due respect, we think that the way God lives is that you just come with hunger, full of our lost and our desires, and we just say, God, I am your son. You die for me. Here is the. Scripture, because I can bend a scripture on you to blackmail you. Oh yeah, give me the breakthrough. I need a wife, I need a husband, I need children, And your word, says the cackle on a thousand hill belongs to you. I pleasant the man. Unfortunately does not happen that way. Everything in this kingdom revolves around the will of God. The moment your desire, your temperatu, your outlooking life becomes in defiance to the will of God, it doesn't matter how actually your scriptural recitation is, you will never secure the help of God. Allelujah. I have seen people pray. I have seen people first, but I have examined the content of their prayer and fasting and word study, and it tells why they don't get answers from it, because they are using spirituality to feed lost and God says, no, even if it is scripture you are quoting, I have to examine your heart. Is it going to be at the expense of the health of your soul. Listen, you have heard me say this. My dear people are letting me repeat it here in your presence. There is nothing in my life today by the messies. Of God that I cannot give God nothing. Nothing. When I started with God and God started lifting me, I pray to him. I said, Lord, this is a personal prayer from me to you. May I never know the full extent of my impact. I don't want to know it because it can be distracting. If I have that knowledge, Satan can come to me and say, I hope you know you're a very great man. Do you know how great you are? Ah, I hope you know that the temptation of great men is to fall down. When Jesus met said and met Jesus, he said, he took him to a holy mountain and said, fall down, angels who hold you. I have seen the help of God in my life. I have seen the mercy of God in my life. Let me tell you how I found it. I didn't find it by looking for it. I found it by looking away way from all those things and staying with Him, staying with him, staying with him, making your spirit man so large and robust, and before you know it, you become a magneting the spirit. You will begin to draw the things that listen, listen, listen. Let's assume that this man of God is a business man. Do you know most times, if say, for instance, just in this example, I tell him, sir, can I design a spiritual growth template for you. The man who said, no, I'm not a man of God, I'm a business man, bring things that deal with common sense. Give me five years with this man. Eventually I'm not a business man, but I can follow a template that even him as a businessman, you will see me behind. And he's saying, you are not a businessman. But what are you doing in the cycle of wealthy people? The health of your spirit? Man, I'm showing you a key to that. If you find some of you need to go back home and shelve a lot of useless activities. They are not adding to your growth. They will not add to your growth, I assure you. They will waste your time, waste your energy, waste everything about your life. And at the end of it, you find out that it looks like you been making progress, but the progress is onto futility. But there is one thing you can find merely found this. It's a matter. You are worried and you are obsessed about many things, but one thing is needful. Someone say one thing, shouted, say one thing. Ah, there is one thing that if you find in life, you would have found the key to wealth. You would have found the key to increase. There are things that when you find in life, my brothers and my sisters, the people you now admire today will look for you and call it a ho not to stand before you. If I ask to write our prior request? Now, what area are you trusting God for restoration? Someone will say, appostble As I stand right now, I've lost one billion, I've lost five ondred million. And you answer, person, what am I going to do about this? And now I'm looking for a loan or I'm looking for someone to help my business. But if I tell you, give me a chance to recommend a part for you out of that problem? He says, you're not a businessman. Do your appreaching jasons that give you money? And I ask the person, so, how are you going to come out of this challenge? I have called senate to sources and so and then he promised to connect me to one foundation abroad. I'm already calculating everything. I hope that give or take, at least two hundred million will come in. And then when that two million comes out, do business and at least in two years. Oh, dear, listen, let me tell you the man talking to is not stupid. Someone else can go before God and say, further, if you do not open my eyes, I cannot see. If you do not help me, there is no human way I can come out of this. And the Lord says, you know what, live the issue of business, leave the issue of profit. Focus on me. Say time desires to sift you, and you can throw business and everything else. Pay and say I have lost everything in my life. I will not lose my soul. Lord, let's start again. My brother, you can be in that place and one idea in his presence, one connection in his presence, the spirit of God. Is it not in your Bible that the steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord? You can get up from your fraulthy and step into a conference like this, and God will okay straight that you sit down near helper. And the person says, young man, what do you do? And says, I'm just a graduate he says. The spirit of God said, I should hold your hand till you are established. Now, when you come back and meet the person who left God to look for success, the person who say, no, you are just lucky. I'm surely you just you succeed that just because you are ministry, it is a lie. It is the profit of His presence. I used to think this template only works for men of God, the template of making sure that you are surrendered and staying in His presence. And quite honestly, I used to be concerned because I said, if you stay in his presence, praying, building capacity, won't you lose in time? There are many important things to do. I've found out that no body loses with God. When your spirit man becomes robot and enlarged, you will lay up gold. Does I tell you if you came for this conference trusting God to receive restoration and to be free, I am telling you the way out. Take a minute away from business, take a minute away from marriage, take a minute away from children, away from breakthrough. Can you take a minute and stay tonight and say, God is between me and you. This is not the issue of healing. Again. I know that they dies knows me of cancer, but cancer you will be a letter discussion for when you find him, when you touch him, when you encounter the God of the Bible, not the one you hear people saying, they meant when you encounter the God of Israel, when he places something upon your life, he will go out and in a moment, I'm telling you it will not take that long. God will raise men, God who raised systems. He will give you with some word starting tonight, because tonight is a cry for a restoration of our soul. And when you pray that prayer, some of you whilst give the place of prayer, there are other prayers who do not need to pray again. He will go back home, and on reaching home, someone will call you and say, you know what, I've been trying to reach you. The job is now waiting for you. And that's when you find out that it's not that God could not give you the job. He has seen that satan once who use that job as a transaction to steal away your passion, to steal away your hunger, to steal away your fire. And let me tell you this. If you hear me saying this thing, and you feel in. Your heart, I'm wasting your time is an attack on your destiny. Sanatang. There are things only God can do in the life of a man. I have studied success from a business standpoint. I have studied success from an entrepreneur standpoint by the message of God. I have studied success from a leadership standpoint. I have studied success from a spiritual standpoint. I have come to a conclusion that it doesn't matter what route you take. If your soul, the health of your spirit man, if that is not shorted, you will prosper, You will make money, does will open. But there is calamity eventually waiting for you. It doesn't matter even if it's after twenty years. You can pull ministry without his presence and excel and one. Day, overnight something happens to you. Say that is not foolish. He does not attack in one day. He gives you room so that you can continue without God's presence, so that you can continue without your fire. Listen to me, I came here by the spirit tonight to challenge you losing my life and to honor your sacrifice of coming to this place for some of you. What God is calling you to do now, he says, Son I've always cried. For your attention. You've gotten so busy, busy trying to make life work, busy trying to build a house, not knowing that accept the Lord, beauty house. They labor in vain, that puild it accept The. Lord watches over his city, the watch. Man watch it. But in vain. There are people, by the messages of God that have met in my life today, And it's almost like a dream. I would never have imagined that I disappointed in my life. By what connection would I have got to that level? But God for you, when He finds your heart. Who is God speaking to? When God can find your heart, there are many things that happen in the secret place that becomes your security. Number one is a circumcision that happens within. Your heart, because you see, the tendencies of man is such that until God vets you, if you can deceive yourself. The Bible says, the heart of man is desperately weakened. Oh God, bless me, and I will bring the money to Chorge. He said, lie, you are sincere, but you are still lying. You don't even know the state of your heart. The Bible says that the heart of man is deceptive. Above all things, you know what it means to have plenty, and it does not affect your passion for God. You know what it means to be lifted and still be humble and remain on your knees. It is not human, It is not natural. It is a circumcision that happens when you stay with Him. When God demands that you stay, he is not delaying your growth. When God demands that you stay, he's not wasting your time. My dear sister, hear me. I'm speaking to you by the spirit. Don't let nae say as make you feel that the time invested in God's house the time invested in building your health capacit in the spirit. When you plant, sometimes the plants does not just sprout and start bearing fruit. There are trees like the Bawba tree and other trees that would take a long time. Is to look like progress is not happening. One way you know you are working with God is that the will always be silent Yes in your life. Yes. The only God can tell what is happening to you. You yourself, cannot tell whether you are making progress or not, because all the parameters to measure success will be missing. And God will keep it intentionally. He will teach you to be used to him without things, and be comfortable before he brings things. Did you hear what I said? He will teach you to be used to His presence. That if I have his presence without money, I am still successful. If I have his presence without a name, I am still successful. When His presence becomes your all, everything added to it does not distruct you. Again, the Sami said, among the many things I desire to restore. Restore my soul. Restore my soul for someone, restore my soul means restore my prayer life. Possibly I did not start this way. I used to be on fire, that fire upon my altar. For some of you, it was so whilse you were on campus, before you became a businessman. While we're a faithful member of a fellowship, it was prayer every time. And by that momentum you. Were gaining accentdance in the spirit. You began in the spirit. Who distracted you? What distracted you? Now? For some family life. Became the temptation and debate Satan used to distract you. Or do's ministry, or there's money, or that's the desire to make it. God is the one who designed this system. He is not evil to leave your needs unattended to. But there is a protocol. Tonight, I came to show you a lord that you are being violating that is responsible. For most of the losses in our lives. When Satan comes to you and he looks at the direction of your attention, that's what you attack. When he looks at the direction of your attention and he finds it at fame or money, he will attack that area. But when he finds your eyes fixed on Jesus, that while your account is multiplying, your eyes is still on Jesus because you have been trained in the secret place, that every time you look away from Him, the waters will sink you. Peter, that was the lesson. Working on water was not just about a miracle. He was teaching you how to be undistracted by the things around you, to focus on Jesus. When Peter looked away from Jesus and began to look at other things, like ministry, like growth, like whatever it is, he sank. Let me tell you this. When I was to start ministry, the difficulty was how to be able to raise finances for ministry because I made up my mind that I was going to serve God, void of compromise, that I will never manipulate anybody for myself or to fund the work. And based on the visions that God was showing me, I knew that this work would require end most and normalst resources. How was God going to help me through this by his messy? I remember times when I will come to God and say, Lord, what. Is the key to this? And He would teach me stay. In my presence. There is a Corey column for your growth. There is a Corek column for your excelling. There are people already positioned. There is wisdom to navigate you to the place of grace and power. But stay. I thank God by his messy that I stayed the foolishness of waiting upon the Lord. It would look like you are not making progress. Let me say this to you, and I submit without humility. I'm about to pray for you. Now. There are many people, or there were many people those days, they wait in the hurry to make it. Now. I don't say this, you know, being sarcastic. I mean, if you saw them, you would think if they did not do ministry in one year, they would die. It was like, I want to do mini, I want to and to shine, I want to heal the sick, I want to do whatever. And sometimes humanly you will be tempted to say, oh, this is not the way and I'm missing out, and he will tell you stay for someone. All through January it looked like you did not make progress in any aspect of your life, except that your prayer life was healthy, except that your world life was healthy. Please do not feel foolish. You are sowing in the spirit. You are making an investment. In one year, God can bring the job and the horsband and give you triplets. You would turn back and say, so, what was the anxiety about? What was it about? Allelujah? Many years later, by the messy of God, when God began to do the things that He's now doing through our lives, I look back with pain in my heart. Are some of these wonderful people yester years? I look at the horry. They wanted to make money fast, they wanted shame first, they wanted increase fast, and you are now wondering, So with all that. Journey, where is it? Because let me tell you this, it is fain to wake up in the morning. And to sleep late at night only to eat the bread of sorrow I have lant in my life. If this God does not stand behind you to help you, you will waste your time and weary your days. It will look like you are making progress, only that you would turn back and find out that fifteen years was wasted. You will go around only to find out that you are back to the place you started. This is my call tonight. We are going to cry the cry of restoration. Lord. I'm trusting you for how this. I'm trusting you for a car. I'm trusting you for increased word for tonight, restore my soul. Restore my soul. This transaction I've been doing with set not knowingly that my increase has been at the expense of my prayer life. My faith has been at the expense of my consecration. My rising has been at the experence. Do not allow your growth become a cost to you. The ge is to give God your heart. When your heart belongs to him. When Saydan comes around you, it doesn't matter what he bit you with, whether increase or challenges, It has no effects on your heart. Do you know why? Because you are totally surrendered now let me say this before we pray. When you come to Jesus, really you don't give him your heart, you receive his life. That's what happens. Giving him your heart is not a language of born again. It's a language of surrender, so that you will be used by him. When you now hand over your all, said, my son, give me your heart, and let your eyes incline onto my waist. Tonight I came to prop a formula, the formula that turned this small boy, you see by his message, to what God is doing tonight. I don't claim I know everything. I don't claim I know everyone. But there's one thing that the people that do know their God, the people that do know their God, it doesn't matter where they start from, it doesn't matter who has reason or not reason in their family. Allow God to bath that circumcision, to make out that circumcis within your heart. Tonight. You are a man of God. I do not doubt. Truly the hand of God is upon you. But this appetite of wanting invitation, let me go for ministry. I am a great man. Put my face on the poster. You are transacting with Babylon, not knowing just because it's a spiritual adventure does not mean you are free. Take away all those things and stay. Neither do men light a lamb. If you are truly lit, it is impossible to be kept in hiding. It doesn't matter who victimizes you. When you stay and that circumcision happens. The case you received from his presence is fire that cannot be quenched. And when you carry that fire weather. As a business man, you carry that fire. It doesn't matters. Whatever you will excel. You will rain. That's when you will see that there is a compensation system. I must say this. While you are working with God, you will lose many things. I have to tell you the truth. There are many losses that are not demonic. There are consequences of sacrifice. Did you hear what I said? Please? And no, go listen to me. Listen to this man of God. While you work with God, you don't start by gaining. When you work with God, you start by losing. Accept a corn of wheat falls to the ground and talk to me. And when you work with God, there is a price. You will lose friends, people will misperceive you. That is the price you will stand by losing a lot to a point, you will be strict off everything that makes you confident in yourself, so that your confidence becomes him. When he stricts you that much, it is also a measure of the weight of glory. Now let me tell you this, there is a compensation system at the end of the journey. Don't feel cheated no matter what you lose in the journey. If it is God who is helping you, I assure you. If his money you lost, if his friends you lost, if it's your reputation you lost, don't worry about that. By the time the maker makes you in One day. Sho lost everything, the one thing he had what is honor and reverence for God and giving. His wife said, mister man, you've lost all cost God and die. Job said, what do you speak like this, one of these foolish women, It says, all the days of my appointed time. I don't know if I would have had the kind of stamming out to wait like Joe, not when after losing my children, my estate, and then my health. Maybe I would have caused God one day to say, God, you know what, I don't trust you kill me if you want to. But not Joe, he said, I know my Redeemer leads to the point that three men came together and the Bible said they sat down for one week. They were looking at Joe. Do you know what it means to sit here sick person for one week and you can't talk to the person? Ah, how did you reduce like this? What kind of attack came on your ministry? What kind of attack came on your family? And Ellie who said, it's not always about what the person did wrong. There are mysteries in the spirit. There are times we lose to gain. You shed off certain weights. I'm saying this to someone because you lost their job, you lost friends. Someone said, if you will compromise, you will get an oil and gas company work, and you refused. You're taught. By the next day a breakthrough will come. And sometimes preachers, we need to be careful as we teach people. There is a process before the imagine happens. Just because you say no to say it and does not mean God's answer will come immediately. There are times no answer will come for two years, five years. You will feel foolish for saying no to the devil. But wait, still, wait, you made up your mind that you will stay and everybody who started with you has gone ahead of you. They call you one there and say, please, we are concerned about your destiny. Tell them. I came to Truch tonight and I had one word, wait wait, I will wait. I will wait. Thank God for your ministry. Go ahead. I wish you were, but I will wait. The ordination upon my life and the weight of glory that I carry requires a building. I will wait, provided it is waiting upon the Lord. I will wait. Let the circumcision happen. And God looks at you and says, I want. To trust you with nations. But because of the background you came from, maybe you came from a politamous background, the tendency for pride, the tendency for wickedness is there, so that it does not destroy you in the future. Allow me to circumcize you, and I tell you why that is happening. It will be painful. Waiting is the hardest thing I know for a believer. Because you wait in the silence of God. I said, Man of God, someone will come for counseling over something that you are going through. You will solve your problem by prophecy, and then you still remain in that situation and you say, Ah, somebody came to you and said, look, I'm trusting God for finances. You said, let's pray, and as you spark, the person sent you a text one hour and say you are really. Anointed and you your rent has not been paid. The person said, no, you are really, I will come with my friend again. So you after praying for ten people, or a barrying woman praying, and a woman comes with triplex instead. I've never experienced graces like this, and you say, God, what of me? Here is my message for you tonight? Wait? Wait, wait, some of. You are I'm wrapping up now you are about the finish line. Wait, because you see, if you were to run a marathon and you are the last round and you are tired, they would not say because you went seven rounds for eight you've done well. You've still lost. You are the person who was not in the field, who received the same lot. Shame. I made up my mind that if it. Is God, but I'd rather be fool in the presence of men. But I will stay with him. I have seen the value of his presence. I look at my life today and I don't I don't say this to be arrogant. I hope you don't misunderstand before arrogance. Honestly, I have the messy of God. Sometimes when I'm alone, I've tried to cry in the midst of people. My tears will not just come out. So I don't know why I'm not a very much a person. But when I try to cry, Oh, y'all, come now, the tears will not come. But when I'm alone, because I consider the things is done in my life, I remember that small boy and I stand. I say, Lord, look what you've done in my life, And it says. Teach people what I did in your life. Don't just enjoy it. Teach people that the secret is when you forget about all and stay with him Master. We have left all, Lowe, we left all. We left all, We left all, We left all, We left invitations, we left opportunities. If you ever think you stay with God and become a failure, the formula that was given to you was wrong. But if it is God's formula, as your soul prospers, every other thing will eventually catch up, and sometimes it to catch up so fast. When God began to show us messy as a ministry, when God began to show me messy, as a person. At the point I was going to say, Lord, what is this. It's like this train is running too fast. But that's what happens when you build capacity in the spirit. In one day, question how long did it take Job to be restored? Have you read your Bible? Job forty two unders, tend, reten and eleven. That's how long it took Job to be restored. While he was going through that season, ladies and gentlemen, all the people who had capacity to help him were there, but mysteriously they way far from him. Oh but there is an easy wind that can blow help us from everywhere. And in one day, back to pack. Somebody comes to you and says, gentlemen, you are in disquiet. God send I should give you a house. You will first look cut it. I said, no, it's a joke. Let me tell you this. I share these stories to inspire you. For many years I stayed in one room. As a man of God, I would travel and preach, be kept in very nice places. I didn't stay because of luck. I was paying for people two bedrooms, three bedrooms, keeping people, paying schoolfies. And God would tell me to stay in one room. I said, what is all this one again. If I've seen against you, I'm sorry. What did I do wrong? Like that? Stay? I remember people who bring vehicles and give me. You see that bring vehicles and kid me, and the Holy spiritling said, no, I can supply pray on the vehicle and take it back. I remember a time when the group of women I was in my room praying. I had You know how women singing choruses at they're coming to your house. You know that's a serious issue. Once you see them together singing choruses and they're just as concerned mothers. They wanted to know if there was something wrong with me that I was not sharing. When they left, I said, God, is something wrong with me? Do you know what it means to be playing rang for other people? And you're staying in one room? And I used to counsel in that one room. I did not hide it. You entered the room and you think it's an office, only that is an office with a bed, well prepared bed, office with t STV and free to hear. What kind of one room is like that? People who bring class I remember I used to climb bike to go for a miracle service. Now everybody's life may not follow that template. I'm only giving you an example to show you what it means to stay until you are made. Allelujah. Imagine a crowd of people like this and you yeah back outside, and that's me with my bible, and I dropped, and the people are looking with shock and disbelief. Ah. They said that these guys are wicked. They cannot buy a car for this man of God. So people offered. There were people who decided to, oh, yeah, let's do it. I remember it was a miracle service. Head of protocol is here. When a woman from Lego sent a sienna, and sent that sienna and they dropped it, and they called me that a woman had brought a car for me. I said, God, who is this car for? And God said, no, this one is for you. I didn't look at that car. I passed. I went for for the miracle service. It was when I returned back in the night that I now looked at it. That's when I knew what had happened to me. The string that connects the heart with things was no longer there. This was the circumcision that God was doing, that there is an invisible string in these of men, that those are the strings that. Make you look like a puppet in the midst of things. Money moves you here, tr toles move you here, Fame moves you here. God now brought that circumcision to my heart, and I am honored today. The rest is history to God with the glory. I cannot tell you the things that God has done in my life. Today. God carried the lifetime of many people and gave me in one lifetime. Many people today were able to do the things that we do for the kingdom across the nations. Our first who said we were not a little more than your choir. After first, you know, for two weeks I'm praying the calves foiled on the way. We didn't have money to call mechanics. It was praying tongues that got that car back. I tell the truth, and I lie not the ladies. Everybody was in every department that time. Just find a department that is empty and join the ladies who climb trees to plug some wood so that they could cook. And they were still in the worship team. They will quickly cook a rush and want dress. But today to God be the glory. Listen, so that we do not waste prophetic words. And so that you do not shout Amen for nothing. What many of you need right now is that circumcision tonight, and for the next five minutes. We are going to be crying before the Lord. Leave the issue of car. Listen to me. I'm telling you how to get the car business man. I know you are owing. If you run away from God, you are still in trouble. Are we together, my sister, I know you want marriage, you want children. God wants you to settle more than you can. But you stay the next five minutes, We're going to pray and cry like the twenty and four elders. Lord, that's circumcision. Restore my soul. Restore my soul. Restore my soul in the name of Jesus Christ. Everything that has given me cheap to Satan, everything that has given my destiny my ministry cheap. Someone go ahead and pray. For some of you. You need to start with repentance. For some of you, you need to cry and say, Lord walk upon me. Take a minute and pray. Participate in the prayer. This is between you and your makeup. The Bible says, saying then that we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses. Let us lay aside every weight and the sin that God easily besets us, and to run with perseverance the race that is set. Before us, looking onto Jesus, who is the. Author and the finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him, and cure the cross. And this finds the shape someone is trying to God, someone who came to charge with new in hunger. Restore my fire, Restore my prayer life, restore my appatite, rest are my passion. Go ahead and pray. I know you are a man of God, But take away that minister of recalia for one minute and cry before your makeup. I know you are a chump on in the spirit. Take away that recalia for one minute. I know you are thought of Abraham. There is an alternation in your life. I do not doubt it. But someone cry restore, not restore my money, leave money for tomorrow. Not restore my car. Live the issue of car for tomorrow. Not restore my reputation, leave reputation for tomorrow. Rest are my relationship, Restore the state of my heart, Restore my passion, Restore my fire. Say committed to break, Oh holy hollo lea la sardaise Hoo comes in the name of the Holy Me. No Sarda see O comes in the name of h ooside ouside Me. Sardi see Ho comes in the name of No Sarda se. Ncs in the name of Uh. No Sarda se n comes. Now listen, ladisten, and gentlemen, dear me until you encounter that refiners fire. I sense a very strong annointing in this place. This anointing is not for importation. This anointing is to restore your fire and your hunger. Let me tell you the truth. Some of you you are the one delay your manifestation. It is not in God's hand. It is at the messy of your zealand your passion that they would take God seriously and accelerated death process. Through your hunger and passion, you also accelerate the manifestation. Death walks in us, that life will walk in you. Listen, listen. A man of God wants asking me a question, and he said, what really is the secret of results in ministry? He was trying to really investigate honestly. He said, Apostle, what will you say is the real secret of having results in ministry? Is it eloquence in speech, is it soundness in communication? Doctrine is it? Depth of the word is it? Prayer? Is it? Excellence? Is it? Administration? Is it relationships? All of these are the various elements that make for excelling what in If you were to tell me one key, what will it be? I told him yes, and he said prayer. I said, no, you failed. He said what. I said, no you failed? He said what then, excellence? I said, no, you fail. The greatest key to excel it in ministry is not outside you. It's within you. The state of your heart with God, of your heart with God is greater than your prayer life. The state of your heart with God is greater than Bible recitations. Can I tell you you can get everything right and be surprised that it will not work because the state of your heart is corrupt. One minute I've stretched you a bit, You're going to cry and say, Father, everything that will make me leave you now or the future, everything that will make me to be thrown you in my heart, everything that will make me exhaust things above you touch my heart of it right now, open your mouth and pray. Whether it's titles, whether it's position, whether it's money, whether it's increased, I'll show you a formula that controls excellence in the spirit. The business of working with God is dedicated on death, allowing for that circumcision within you to be complete. Restore my soul, Restore my hunger, restore my prayer life, restore my zeal. In Jesus' mighty name. We pray in jesus Might name we pray. I pray about many things in my life, but there are a few things I found out that it was no longer necessary to pray over them. While my hunger was directed to His majesty, it also doubled as a magnet, attracting many things to my life. It is true when the Bible says, if you sick first, this Kingdom and His righteousness truly all other things, all other things, all other things. I want to make an call, please, no movement. There are two altar calls in one I want to make tonight. The first crist is spiritual restoration. Tonight, there's someone who came here and whilst you heard me speak, you and the overflow outside the Holy Spirit in the silence, everybody having all kinds of reactions to this teaching. But for you. The Holy Spirit was pointing to you and said, this is it. This is what I've been showing you through dreams, this is what I've been. Showing you through prophecy, this is what I've been showing you through the teachings you have been hearing that it is upon the strength of that death, that's circumcision, that pulling, that's surrender, that real restoration, increase and advancement happens with the spirit in a way that profits you both here and in eternity. I want to call two people in one. One those who are an apostle. If you will give me this noble opportunity within the next minute or so that we have, I truly want to make it with Jesus. I've heard people talk about this Jesus thing, but I've never really taken it seriously. But on hearing you teach, the Holy ghosts began to speak to me. Number two, those who are saying apostle, I remember making this decision, but honestly, as it is right now, my life is in a spiritual I see you. I need help. First, God bless you, my dear sister. I see someone coming before the Lord with her baby. Now, if you come, don't kneel because the space is limited. Once the front is filled, some of you already coming before my accounting. Once the front is filled, then that will be it. You will stand where you are. You want to make it right with Jesus. I want to help her places holding a baby, so she doesn't fall with her baby. You want to be born again genuinely as fresh. No Thames, no church, whatever it is. Let's celebrate them as they come. Come. I count one to five two. Those who are outside you can walk to the front of your screens. You may not have the liberty to all come in, but all of the over flows you can walk to the front of your led and just stand there by faith. My life is not my to you. I be Love. I gave myself, gave myself. My life is not my to you. I gave myself to Allelujah. Don't miss any of the sessions. When we settle this, we can now deal with the dynamics of the various areas where you're trusting God for restoration. It makes sense to receive the healing, the miracles, the science, the wonders, the prophecies. And the importations. If and when you have gotten this law well for someone You need to go back home and listen to this message again this night, because I tell you sincerely, you have done every other thing right, or because you miss this one thing. That's why you've struggled in business, struggled in destiny. If you can get this right many things even before December, you will be surprised. You will now say that life is not that hard. It is as hard as the absence of divine assistance in your life. Thank you all of you for coming. I believe that many of you are making this decision for the first time, and yet there are a number of others. There's such a great harvest night. I know that many others are coming because. They desire a reddication. Now there are two things I'm going to ask you to do. One, I'm going to lead you to the Salvation prayer. And once we are done, I'm going to lead you there counselors. I know there are number of you, and show that the counselors have been prepared. They would have some time with you, have a word with you, and then you're back to your sin. Please lift your right hand as a sign of surrender to this Jesus not Joshua Salman, not Reverend Edwin, not any of the ministers here. It is onto your King, your maker self, time me, Lord. Jesus, many from your heart, Say Lord Jesus, tonight I return, tonight, restore me. I believe that you are the son of the Living God. I believe that you died for my sin. I believe that you rose again for my justification. Right now I received Jesus into my heart as my savior, my Lord and my King. I declare that the power of saying saytan hell and the grave is broken over my life. I'm a child of God. I go for whatever and back whatever in Jesus' name. There are two of you. The power of God is coming on you. The rest I'm going to ask you to leave. But I just while you were praying that prayer, I just saw light two people the power of God. And the reason why that invitation is coming is because there are demonic things around your life. Let me just speak that word. I'm not ministring doing anything tonight. This is the assignment God gave me. What the threashing floor doing a work of circumcision, but for those two people, in the name of Jesus, wherever you are stretch my hands now, and I declare, let that fire, let it rest on you the name of Jesus Christ, help the woman, Let it rest on you. And I cause that spirit of infirmity lives your life forever. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, I decreate, declare that the. Reign of darkness goes never, never, never to prevail over your life again. I set you free. Every chain holding you, I decreate and declared we lose from it. Right now you will experience liberty, liberty that comes by the power of the Holy Spirit. In the name of Jesus and I decreate, declare to you in the name of Jesus Christ, what he says to one, he says to all, even before the other services will beministring. I decreate, declare that everything you came with that has held you down bound, you kept you captive. You are released from it right now in Jesus Name, by the power of the Holy Spirit. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray, Amen and Amen. Okay, Now for those of you, does that concern the people here? Okay, all of you who are here, please look to the screen, whether inside or outside, you would see a number zero eight zero two six double three seven three seven three. You are required to text new Life. Text New Life to that number, and then the air counselors who have been trained to have they would get to reach you and then to follow you up in an organized man. And there's so many people, and I'm sure this is the wisest approach to make sure you take advantage of it. I will speak over your life now that you return back to your seat. Father, thank you for these precious ones. They have come declaring your lordship over their lives. I decree and declaring truth that this relationship, this restoration begins for you and it remains so all the days of your life. No going up and coming down. The Lord preserve you in Jesus name. Please return back to your seat, and for everyone else who has come, let me speak over your life in the name that is above all names. You came for this conference, and as you submit yourself to this law, this law of total surrender, this law avoiding yourself of any tendency of transacting with Satan, to end success, to end you know, a great life. I pray for you in the name of Jesus Christ. That by the power that raised Christ from the dead, everything that He has used to lay claim on your destiny. I declare that you are released right now. Shout aloud, Amen, you are released right now. As you go home, may your testimony arrive your home before you. I say to a believer as you go home that before you get to your house, let signs and one that's be waiting for you in honor to this world. Many of the things you have been praying for, now that you have gotten the order right, may they come to you as pretty answers, pretty answers. Spread the answers in Jesus's mighty name, we pray. Now, do me this one favor before I return back. Please, I like you to covenant with yourself that tomorrow and the evening and all through these sessions, that you are going to do the work of an evangelist. I know that there's a crowd of people all across, but there is still need for people. Some of you, while hearing me teach, you knew by the spirit that there are people who need to hear this message because this is the answer to the prayers that they have been praying. Do well to number one, give these teachings to them for their edification. Number two, don't come tomorrow morning alone the evening. Don't come alone. Come with your heart prepared to receive. And the Lord will do you good in Jesus' name, and men and God bless you.
