His grace is wisdom, his power to us here and to the nations as many who are connected to disgrace. We bless God for your life and want to assure you that tonight us always will be a moment of encounter, a moment of transformation. Very quickly by God's grace. By now you know already that next week is our miracle service for the month of July. It's going to be an extra ordinary time in this place. Among the many things we're going to be doing, by God's grace, we are going to be officially doing a visual unveiling of our property, allelujah. And then number two will officially be launching our building fund. So for those of you who have waited and waited to give, please be patient one more week left and who open doors officially. We appreciate your heart to give, and we know that there is a ready army waiting to stand with us and stand by us as we step into the next season. It's a very prophetic season. And let me tell you this as a ministry, the building is only a prophetic sign that we are corporately entering a new season. Allelujah. If I wear you, I would look beyond the building you see. Let me not go ahead of myself. But it's important for you to know that this is beyond just a building project. It is for someone. You are entering a stage where God wants to establish you, for someone, you are entering a season where. God wants to give you rest. Roundabout you will look left and right and find out that there are no battles again, because God would have sorted your life and for someone in this season. Those who mocked God in your life, God is about to answer them in a way because you have allowed him to answer them. He will answer them. Indeed in the name of Jesus Christ. Allelujah. Now the believer, I have taught you in this house that the believer is a product of encounters. The believer in Christ is a product of encounters. An encounter, for a definition, is the name given to any spiritual journey, any spiritual process. That makes a person or a thing real to you. So the assignment of an encounter. Is to chris the lies within your heart, your spirit, and your experience the reality of a person, the reality of a thing, And the goal of encounters is to produce conviction. I'll take the definition again, so that an encounter this is just a preamble believers are products of encounters. If your journey in the faith life is not based on encounters, number one, you will not last. Two, you will not be effective. But I know whom I have believed, and I am persuaded on account of encounters, that he is able to keep that which is committed onto him against that day. But the people that do know their God, they shall be strong and they shall do exploits. Allelujah, prayse the name of the Lord. So encounters are spiritual experiences that make a person, that make an idea real to you so that it is no longer theoretical. It crystallizes the reality of a person, the reality of an ideology to your spirit, to your heart, producing conviction, so that you are persuaded beyond doubt. You are persuaded beyond turning back. Allelujah, prays the name of the Lord. And like you've learned in this house, a quick recap that there are many encounters a believer will have in his faith work through the span of his faith work. But there are four of them that define your spiritual experience and define the level of efficiency. In fact, if anyone of these encounters fail in your life, fail to happen, you will be stunted. You will be inefficient. Number One, and in order of priority, is your encounter with Jesus, the Son of the Living God. It matters that this becomes your first encounter. Without this encounter, you cannot be called a Christian. You cannot be called a believer. Your encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ. I don't have to recap for you again that upon encountering the Lord Jesus Christ, in the experience we call salvation or new birth, you receive the forgiveness of sins, the gift of righteousness, and the. Life of God. Number two. The second encounter that is necessary for the health of your spiritual journey is your encounter with the Person and the ministry of the Holy Spirit. The Person and the Ministry of the Holy Spirit, inasmuch as the Holy Spirit plays a role in your receiving Jesus at that initial salvation experience, there is a separate encounter with the Person and the ministry of the Holy Spirit. Jesus, speaking about the Holy Spirit, said, when he the Spirit of Truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth. Allelujah. He will show you things to come. Take of the things that are of the Father, and reveal them to you. He is the spirit of truth. Number three, your encounter with the Word of God, the Word of God, not as. The person Jesus, but as a compendium of the speakings and the thoughts and the ideas of God, the logos of God. At twenty thirty two. I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and to give you an inheritance among them that are sanctified. Colosians chapter three, hundred sixteen. Let the Word of Christ, it says, dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teach and admonishing one another in same spiritual songs. The Bible says, I'm that. From a child THU hast known the Holy Scripture, which is able to make you wise onto salvation. John one and the s three. And without him outside of the world, was not anything made that was made Collosians one sixteen. The Bible tells us that all things were created by Him the Word. The things that are in heaven earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, whether they be Dominion's principalities. You can have the initial salvation experience and yet not encounter the Word of God as a compendium of the ways of God. I told you that there is Jesus the Way. There is Jesus the person. But there is Jesus the Way, the methodology of the Kingdom, the path that leads to life. When you find that path and work, and according to Jeremiah six sixteen, the Bible says, you will find rest for your soul. It's called the ancient parth Allelujah. And then number four, you must encounter the Body of Christ, the body of Christ, the diversity of revelations and graces deposited within the body for your profiting. Efficient chapter four, when you read from verse eleven, the Bible says, when he led captivity captive, he gave gifts to men, given some apostles and prophets, and evangelists and pastors and teachers for the maturing the perfecting of the saints, so that the saints, now being perfected, will do the work of the ministry for the defying the profiting of the Body of Christ. Until the starting we come to. The unity of faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God onto a perfect man, the fullness of the sure of the measure of Christ. If you do not encounter the body of Christ, there are dimensions of God that will be foreign to your Christian experience. You will not be able to have a balanced, wholesome growth. An example of such instance is found in Acts chapter eighteen, from verse twenty four down to the end, the story of Apollos, Acts chapter nineteen, from verse one to four, the story of the disciples who had passed through the Upper Coast. Allelujah. I call it the. Knowing only syndrome, and that happens when you do not encounter the diversity of graces that are deposited within the body of Christ. Within the body of Christ is the wisdom and the grace for excellence. Within the body of Christ is the wisdom and grace for power at the manifestations of the hand of God. Within the body of Christ is the grace to be. Within the body of Christ is the grace to last. And so when you. Encounter the world of God, in addition to that, you encounter the distribution of the graces. First, the wisdom and the graces that have been allotted to various people and platforms. Across the body. And then it causes you to be wholesome. Imagine the Bible without the writings of Paul Omitting the writings of one man alone will make the understanding of God and his program incomplete. Imagine the Bible without the writings of Peter, just one man subtracting one man's contribution. You see that, and you are not able to understand scripture again. Allelujah, Praise the name of the Lord. So believers are products of encounters. Tonight, I want to teach you how season's birth the glory of God, how season's birth greatness. In a topic that I titled the emergence. The emergence, I want to show you the seasons that birth greatness. That a man can go through several seasons in his lifetime, but there are a few seasons. If you miss it will take the messy of God for you to ever be great in life. And I'm praying that God will open our eyes in Jesus' name. Two scriptures very quickly. Number one, look chapter one from verse seventy nine and eighty. Look chapter one from verse seventy nine and eighty, speaking about John to give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, and to guide our feet to the way of peace. Verse eighteen, the Bible says, and the child grew John now and walk strong. Take notes, the child grew and walk strong in spirit, and he was in the desert or the wilderness till the day of his showing onto Israel. Let's see what Amplify says. Let's see what Amplify says. And the little boy grew and became strong in spirit, and he was in the desert the wilderness. Until the day of his appearing. Watch this the commencement of his public ministry, where the Lord grant us understanding in Jesus' name. Romans, chapter fifteen, hun verse fours, a popular scripture in this house. The Bible says, for whatsoever thinks were written at full time? He says that these things were written for our learning, so that we do patience and the comfort of scripture might find hope. Explain for you what this means. That the reason why the Bible had to be documented. And remember, we took a theological series that we had to pose on the way examining the foundational pillars of the Christian faith, and one of it is the supremacy of the world of God. And in discussing that we're considered the fact that the Bible is the richest print techt capture of the speakings of God and the platform that reveals God to anyone, any believer at all. The Bible contains the richest capture of. The revelation of God to man. I went together now, and so this is very important because there is a reason why a lot of stories are written in the Bible. When you pick the Bible, you can almost call it a story book, and you're not necessarily wrong. Like you know, the Bible contains a lot of stories, historically captured, archaeologically captured. And for a long time I wondered why the Bible was full of. Stories, and quite honestly, some of those stories were not connected to salvation at all. And so in my thinking, I just thought that if those stories went away, it will leave us with little work or burden as far as learning what translates to the knowledge of God directly, instead of several stories this man begards this man, this man begard this man, And you're wondering, so. To what end is all of this? There are stories that I personally consider useless as far as their connection to the plan of God is concerned. But The reason is because as I would grow in the knowledge of God, I got to find out that all of those stories were left in the Bible, whether directly connected to the revelation of Jesus and his salvation plan or not, because there is a prophetic layer to the learning of scripture. Remember I taught you that we learn scripture at three layers. Number one, there's the historic or archeological layer. Number two, there is the doctrinal or contextual layer. So you learn the Bible doctrinally, you learn the Bible textually, and then there is a prophetic layer, meaning. You can draw forth mysteries from a. Seeming encore related scripture, a scripture that means something else. But the Holy gooes can quicken light to a verse or a portion of that scripture, and it can be light to you. It is not a doctrine, but it can become lights to you that leads to breakthrough. Are we together? And so some of these stories are left in the Bible for such a reason, so that when you are exploring the prophetic dimension of the scripture, the Holy Spirit will be at liberty to use an array of stories, an array of scriptures, and quicken them. Now I understand this very. Well because I have seen it as a vision. Let me share with you the vision again for those of you who have not heard. One time I was caught up in the spirit and I saw what looked like an ancient gait, and the ancient gate had it was made up of small doors, boxes like the ancient puts office boxes the way there, and upon each one of them scripture was written. There was a scripture written on every one of them, and they were opening and closing, and every time they opened, light came forth. And I wondered why this vision and what it was about. And then the Lord was showing me that upon every one of those scripture there is light, meaning revelation and the grace that makes that scripture come a life. So every time you catch a revelation, truly. The light component that gives you the ability to demonstrate its reality is also released. If you claim you understand the scripture and the wisdom and the grace connected to that scripture is not seen in your light, then you've not. Really understood the scripture. Allelujah. So I just digress to explain that scripture that the things that are written a full time, whether they direct connected to the revelation of Jesus and his plan of salvation, or otherwise they were written for our learning, meaning that there is something in every scripture for our learning, so that we, through patience and comfort of that scripture, we might find hope. Allelujah prays the name of the Lord, the emergence. I want to show you how season's birth glory. Now, there is a lot of lessons that can be learned from history. And this is not just from a spiritual standpoint. Even when you deal with sociology and you deal with nation building, for instance, you find out that a nation that forgets its history will seldom become a great nation because usually the secret to the future is. In the past. A way together now, and this is how it is with all Spiritually, we can study the path that. The patriarchs took to emerge and become great. We can study the paths that our fathers, those who are alive. Now that there is a path. And remember, let me tell you that there are two ways to becoming transformed in the kingdom. Do not forget this. Sometimes I recap on these things because I want you to become a stronghold in your mind. There are two ways the believer is transformed. Number one, looking onto Jesus as you behold him through his word. The Bible says, we are changed into the same image, from glory to glory. So that's the first way. Second Korethians three eighteen is the first way we become transformed by directly looking onto Jesus. Number two, the second way we look onto Jesus is founding me. The second way we are transformed is found in Hebrew and verse twelve. To be followers of them the power of role models. So we can look onto men who are looking onto Jesus. This is how we are transformed. Number one, we. Look onto Jesus directly through his word and by the agency of the spirit. And then number two, we look onto men who have become worthy models, who by reason of their alignments, their sacrifices, the businesses they have done with God in the secret Place, have been able to embody certain spiritual possibilities. And so the Bible says, we can look onto those men whilst they are looking onto Jesus, and we can draw wisdom. We can follow the footprints they left behind, and it helps us in our emergence. Hallelujah. One more thing that I want to share with us if you recall, and it's a subtle revelation, but I want to remind us again that every character in the Bible, please listen, Every character in the Bible, character meaning the people whose names were captured in the Bible, particularly those who played any significant role at all, from Abraham to Isaac, to Jacob, to Gideon, to Esther to Pharaoh to Herold those who birthed the program of God directly. I told you that every of such characters in the Bible, there were not just personalities that existed, but through their lifetime they became spiritual pathways that can be studied and followed and need to produce a certain kind of believer. Don't forget this. So Abraham, for instance, there was a man called Abraham in the Bible. He lived his life and fulfill the purposes of God as committed to him. But there is Abraham as a spiritual pathway that, if followed, will produce a. Certain kind of believer. There is Esther as a youngla who later became queen and helped to preserve God's people and frontier his program. But there is Esther as a spiritual pathway that if followed, will produce a certain kind of witness. And we're letting now, there is Daniel, there is Joseph. So when you study Daniel, for instance, you study and once upon a time there was a un called Daniel who lived through the dispensation of four to seven kings. But there is Daniel as a spiritual pathway that produces a certain kind of weakness. The reason why this is important is because. The Holy Ghost will never train you to become anything outside of the characters that are represented in scripture. No matter the kind of vessel he wants to make out of you, there is a parallel of that kind of training. It is the reason why God kept you there. So if God wants to be a nation builder, there. Is a character in the Bible you must look like as an attestation that it is God that is training you. You will find a combination of wisdom, government, and the prophetic that is Daniel. There. You will find a combination of wisdom and you know, intelligence that is Joseph. There. If God wants to empower you to be able. To influence decisions in high places, you are a lady that is Esther. There away together. You come from a family where everything has failed and God wants to give you another chance with life. That is ruth right. There a wea together you will always. One of the ways you verify that it is the spirit of God training you is that eventually you must find a parallel, a reflection of your training in scripture who is learning now? This is one of the ways you judge spirits. So by the time you find out that it's spirit or information is building you and you are becoming something who's parallel you cannot find in scripture. Don't believe you are a unique kind of believer. You are being deceived already because the Bible says the things that are written a full time. It is supposed to be a system. Of check and balance. So if you say God has called me into an apostle ministry, there were many apostles in the Bible. No matter how unique you are, I should be able. To find Paul there or Philip, or Peter there or James. If I cannot find them, at least I should find Jesus was also an apostle. If I don't find Jesus or anyone who followed Jesus, I don't trust what trained you, and I don't trust what you are becoming, no matter how rare your call is, no matter how rare your training is, no matter how unique your assignment is. I want you to know that there is a verification system in scripture. There must have been a character in the Bible already away together. If at all we cannot find any human character, then we can find Jesus himself, who was an aggregate. Of all these characters. Apostle. God is calling me to be an exceptional business man, and there is something I need to do for the kingdom that has not been done before. I agree with you. But read your Bible very well and keep working with the Holy Spirit. One day you will stumble across a character that is a reflection of what God is trying to produce. Now, there are times where. You will see a highbreed, meaning you will look through one person and find Daniel and find another person. But you must find it in scripture. Allelujah. It is one way to know that the Holy Spirit is an active part of your training. When the devil is training you or his spirit is deceiving you, you will find out that you are evolving. You are becoming something, maybe even something spiritual, someone spiritual, but you cannot find the testimony of your becoming in scripture. So if you say I am a prophet, there were a number of profits in the Bible, an array of the diversity of the prophetic workings of the spirit. You must find something that looks like the way authentic prophetic ministry works in the Bible, and not the prophetest was a prophet. So if you say I'm a quiet one my own, I don't prophesy, it's true, but we have to verify and not too did. Not profess high around you as a prophetess. So if you are not prophesying around the nations, show me you are a profit by the depth of your intercessory ministry. If we cannot find these things, we have a right to dodge spirits. And say something is wrong with what you are? Is someoney learning already because sometimes and especially because we live in a very complicated age where of course credited to the Holy Spirit, and sometimes we've abused the ministry of the Holy Spirit because most people will say, leave me, it's only God that knows what I'm becoming. Don't only God, it's me and God. And while they meanwhile, sometimes the devil isolates them to deceive them. You see all kinds of sudo Christian expressions and when you are trying to call them, sometimes lovingly, to order to say, young man, I think something is wrong with what you are becoming. You know, let me tell you this. If you have lived for a while, at. Least ten to twenty years in the faith, you should have known or met people that reflect what I'm trying to teach. Those days were used to have people who would not listen. They would decide to approach the faith life in a certain way and not know when they would have encountered familiar spirits. Some of them ended up in the hospital. They were supposedly praying in tongues, but they ended in the hospital. The Holy goirst cannot produce a thing like that, So the devil hijacked their passion. And because they did not have. Spiritual intelligence, not a structured system to check balance their growth. They claim they were looking onto Jesus, but they did not look onto role models who were looking onto Jesus. Because God will always use men. It's not God that holds the rod. Are we together? It gives the road to Moses? It is his rod? But is a man that holds the rod and uses it to guide so that you work well. Prays the name of the Lord. Till today. There are people who are being deceived, and they honestly believe, from the depth of their hearts that they're following God. They honestly believe, from the depth of your hearts that the visions that they're seeing is of God. They honestly believe that the instructions that were given to them. I remember there was a time a young boy, one gentleman. And I'm not saying this to Mocky or I'm just explaining that because of the context of our discussion tonight, I hope you're learning already our spraying for people. And this young boy joins the cue. Was during election, very confident young boy, and he stood in front of me with a poster of himself as president. I think somebody went to a printed for him. He came with confidence the protocol they were watching. I was watching with shock. Now it's not the first time I'm seeing this kind of thing. And a gentleman stood in front of me and Ordas shoustly he said, look just so that he came with a revelation. He had an encounter with God, and God told. Him the destiny of Nigeria was in his hands, and he's ready to do what God wants him to do. And I was wondering, how do I start explaining to this boy? Now you see, now it may truly be that it is in his destiny, but because he's not understood the structure of how believers image follow carefully, I'm leading you somewhere with this teaching. This gentleman took that vision. Not knowing it may be a lie or it may be the truth without a correct knowledge of the timing and the process that leads to it. And I was trying to talk to him in love. You could see him, you know, looking at me and saying, look, you're a man of God. You are some old prophets somewhere, You guys, are the ones that distract young people like I left him in peace. I said, may God bless you go. You will learn there are many ways to learn. Allelujah. Many years ago then, when Zaria, after a serious service impartition the move of God, I was counseling people and a gentleman stands before me with three or four other people near him. And the guy stood audaciously and I said, my friend, how can I help you? And he spoke, he said, well, the guy believed with all his heart that he was Jesus Christ. I mean what I'm saying, no exaggeration. I'm not talking of Jesus like Fine and Branch. He believed he was the savior of Jesus Christ. And then how he was able to convince those guys to work with him. So they were like, I mean what I'm saying. Don't laugh. I'm just trying to show you what happens when you do not understand the patterns of the kingdom. So I'm watching this guy with with with with passion and sympathy, and he's talking to me. One of those guys, I don't know who was John. I don't know who was who? And they listen. They they believed with all their hearts, by divine revelation, that I was John the Baptist who would announce Jesus. They came from cano state. You ask some of the leaders. They're aware of the story. It's not a make story at all. There was nothing you want you will tell this young man that will make him believe how she was able to convince you. See, let me tell you something influence is powerful. Low you can see something that you think is absolutely stupid, but you'll be surprised who believes in it. Those guys travel from Canoe to Zaria, not members. They were just waiting for Cononia to finish. And then they came. And so the guy, I said, so why is he here? You know what John did to Jesus. That's what he came to be done that deep in to announce he was conveniced. Now, ladies and gentlemen, what if that guy is your pastor imagine the kind of member you are going to become. You will become that five thousand, five thousand Jesus fed. Because people do not understand the patterns of the kingdom, they cannot use the wisdom and intelligence. Of Scripture to judge their experiences. The most deceiving of all spiritual experiences are prophetic experiences because of the nature of how the prophetic happens, and because it is a real experience to you. You can't deny that you did not have the dream, but just because the dream or the angel or the being appeared. I remember a man I used to listen to many many years ago. I honestly don't know what later happened to the man, but was a great man, great teacher of the world. And one time they were having a vigil. If I recall, I hope I'm right on that story, and they were having all kinds of revelations. It was a thirty days vigil, true story. And they started having angelic encounters. Some who have encounters where Jesus would appear to them, they would document it and call the other brethren. It was a little fellowship. They were praying for revival. And one time it was said that one of the ladies had a suppose that Jesus appeared to her, and she was bowing down. She was doing all of this, but there was a check in her spirit. The being came looking mild, looking very glorious, but the energy, the spirit, the presence was pongent, and. She kept looking. She was afraid, and if. I recall the story very well, at a point she said, no, this cannot be Jesus. The presence around this being, even though it carries a semblance of Jesus, And as soon as she rebuked the spirit, it turned into an. Ugly beast and disappeared. Now, if that story is true, imagine how many times that being has appeared to many people, and they said, yes, Lord, and it gave them foolish instructions, and they said, I will obey to the latter. And they did not verify, because by that encounter they were not becoming a portrait of anyone in the Bible, nor Jesus himself. One of the ways you verify experiences, no matter how supernatural, is the degree to which that experience produces Christ in you. Someone learning now. Yes, if you're praying tongues for thirty days and it does not produce Christ in you. Either your mindset was not stayed. On the world to partner with those tongues to produce Christ in you, or there was another spirit manipulating you. Every thing that comes from God produces and birds the Christ in. An individual who is learning now prays the name of the Lord. This is very important. Do not be afraid. I don't know why the Holy Spirit is moving me this area. But do not be afraid to george spiritual experiences in your life, no matter how spectacular. The Bible says, even if an angel comes to preach another gospel, that means there are spirits that come in the simplitude of certain angels are we together. Satan will not always come as a being with a horn to destroy you. He can come as a very nice spirit. Again, there used to be a story, a story of a young guy. He's going to be with the Lord now. I used to know him many years ago when he met me. He met me one time. This was far back secondary school, and he met me and told me that there was a creature, a being, a supposed woman like an angel, but a feminine angel, that used to come to him for PM on the dots. True story every evening. They said that we sing together and nothing hurtful. Sometimes she will carry him to places. She just holds his hands and he's out of his body. They go to certain places around she would tell him to be a good person and all of that. And even though I did not know, I was a very young believer then, but I knew something was wrong because. I did not find that kind of experience in the Bible. It's someone learning now. So as spectacular as it is, Satan will not appear today. And tell you go and kill, go and destroy. No, he knows how fragile the human spirit is, so he will guide you in the path that looks like righteousness for a while, so that you are convinced enough that this is satan. Then he now translates. So no matter how supernatural your experience is, it must come under the radar of the wisdom and the vetting process of the world away together. And if you find out that it is inconsistent with the character like you'll be learning of how God builds men, the character of how believers image. You have a right to dump it, and you are not seeing against God. I've shared with you. Here how many times I felt promptings in my spirit supposedly to come to Abuja. But thank God for the power of prayer and the power of God's word and some of those things, it was already in our destiny. But sometimes the vision can be correct, but the timing can be wrong. A wrong timing can make a correct prophecy to still fail. So for someone, God can show you your future. And because you see, the realm of the Spirit does not give timing to things easily like that. Sometimes because of the way the realm of the spirit or the way visions happen, I can see my twenty years now and it will look like tomorrow, because in the realm of the spirit. Time is compressed. I can come back with a twenty year vision and want to do it tomorrow because of the weight of the impact it had on me. But when you understand the structure of how believers image the Holy goals, can help you to allot a timing to that vision so that you know that every vision is for an awpointed time. There are things I'm doing today that I saw more than fifteen years. If I tried doing them at that point, I would have failed, and it would be I would I can give you the evidence of the dream. I have them in my books. But the timing for the timing. Timing is as powerful as the speakings of God. If someone learning prays the name of the Lord. Now, the believer life is divided into seasons like I have taught you, and our lives are divided into seasons. When you really cles. Yes this chapter three, I believe it begins to talk about a time and season. The Bible says to everything, there is a season. Ladies and gentlemen say there is a season. One more time. It says to every word, thing, to everything, there is a season and a time to every purpose. Once it is under Heaven. Knowing the will of God once it is under heaven. Knowing your prophetic destiny is not enough. You must understand seasons and timings. I know people who have failed today. I doubt that they missed it in the area of a prophetic description of their purpose. I think they got that well. But they got two things wrong. One timing, two strategy. They did not take the time to understand the way a believer evolves until greatness or the glory of God is finally revealed in that individual. Now let's go back to look one eighty and you will understand what that scripture said. And I begin to build on a few things. Now, the Bible says, and the child, this child we're talking about, is John the Baptist, the prophet. The Bible says, the first thing that happened was that the child grew. Then he worked strong in spirit, and in spite of the fact that he had grown, in spite of the fact that he had. He was strong in spirit. The Bible says, he remained in the wilderness, the place of confinement, the place of loneliness, the place where he was alone. The Bible says until. The day of his appearing, or until the day of his showing forth onto Israel amplified, we say, until the day the commencement of his public ministry, hallelujah. So the Bible is full of men and women whose entire lives and faith Johnny was captured in scripture. God said, seems to have isolated a few people in the Bible and literally open up their life from childhood until they transited. Now, for some persons, the Bible just captured moments. Watch this, Please look at me. Let me have your attention before you write. There are certain people in the Bible whose story was in only one chapter. There was just one information about their lives, and that was sufficient for learning a way together. For instance, the Bible does not give us any information about Elijah's growing up days. When you read the story of Elijah, two things were noted. Number one, Elijah the tishbite that he came as a prophet, judging the prophets of bel away together. And eventually the Bible tells us the end of his life that a charliot came and carried him, and. That's the end of it. But there were certain people there were also prophets, but the Bible had to backdate their lives. For instance, Jeremiah in chapter one, the Bible tells us is this question with God as a child. For instant Samson, the Bible even tells us what happened before he was born. For instance, samwell, why did the Bible have to meticulously tell us the story around his birth? Was that really necessary? Because of the kind of prophet he was and the role that he played in anointing the kings and ultimately frontiering God's program. A man in the Bible called Jabez. It was just one or two portions of scripture, the Bible says, and Jabez was more honorable than his brethren. And then the Bible back tracks and tells. Us what happened, that the mom bought him in sorrow and named him Jabez, and he prayed a prayer and God heard him. That was the end of it. But when you read other people like David, the Bible tells us their story, it was like a major portion of the Bible captured everything, their flaws, their lives, their dec decisions. It was as if the. Bible zoomed everything about them. You find out with David, you also find out with Solomon. I don't know why the Bible had to give us the story of Bad Shabar and all that. Happened with David. I thought that was all necessary, But it was still captured in the Bible. How about Jesus. For Jesus it was even a serious matter, because Jesus was discussed across four gospels. Matthew, that was not enough. There was something look so that Matthew did not see. There was something mark so that Luke did not see. There was something John saw that Looke did not see. Away together now and the Bible took out time as civil was not enough. Then you find some other revelations cattered in scripture. Paul came with another dimension again of Jesus. Away together now, and then when we get to revelation, John continued again because he now saw the glorified Christ, and he began to reveal some other things, again, telling you that the Bible recorded all of these things because captured within them where a description of how believers image, and of all these seasons. I'm going to be giving you three tonight. If you miss these seasons in your life, you will have brought destiny. No matter how undiscerning you are, no matter how careless you are, with your life. You must pray and say, Lord, when I get to these seasons, open my eyes to know. The seasons look deceptfully ordinary, but you will know when you have entered a chiros season. There are many people who have missed these seasons, and that's the reason why the glory of God and the grace of God. Cannot imagine their lives. Praying the spirit in one minute, Praying the spirit in one minute, because I want to show you a roadmap. Right now in see DoD, someone praying. Holy holy, Holy, Holy Holy Holy, are you Lord, Holy Holy Holy, Holy, Holy Holy, are you Lord, Holy Holy holy holy Holy Holy you. Know holy holy. Tonight we're going to interpret the writings on the wall. For some of you, there has been a writing on the wall of your destiny and not understanding how to interpret it, you can be stopped forever. And it would look like God, it's not faithful in your life. I want to show you how season's bad greatness, how to partner with seasons and emerge. As an eagle. Hallelujah. So the things that are written at full time, they are written for our learning. They're not just occupying space in the Bible. There are prophetic road maps leading you to strategic seasons. I believe that an average any human being who lives between one years to eighty would have gone through at least ten to twelve seasons in their lives. And there are different ways of interpreting seasons. One of them I have taught you in the Message The Law of Seasons. We took a prophetic X ray of Pharaoh's dream and the interpretation of Joseph to help. Us understand that broadly speaking, there are two seasons, the seven years of plenty remember his dream, and the seven years of famine. That in every man's life, these seasons alternate. And if you recall, this is not what I'm teaching, But I just want to show you one angle to look in at seasons. That every time you are in a. Season of abundance, abondance comes with a letter from the season of famine. I am coming. If you do not read that letter and you only enjoy the corn, you will be hungry when it comes. I told you rainy season always comes with a letter from dry season. I am coming. And dry season always comes with a letter from rainy season. Be hopeful, I am coming to So when seasons are before you. By this description that I'm giving you, don't only enjoy the season. You read the letters there. For instance, there you'll get a job. Your retirement also wrote a. Letter for you. There are two letters you received. It's only that you read one. You read your letter of employment, and for God to read your letter of retirement. The letter of retirement will come after thirty thirty five years. But it was there but because you were not disciding to see it. So while you were wasting money during your years of plenty. The letter that God sent that came the same time the employment letter came, was crying before you. There will always be seven fat cows and seven lean ones. And the mystery of seasons from this angle is that the lean cows can eat the fat cows. They can eat the fat cows. Years can eat years. But that's not the angle I'm looking at tonight. Every man's life is divided into seasons. According to Ecclesias is three and verse one. Let's read it so that I can now begin to build number one. To everything. There is a season and a time for every purpose under heaven. Verse two, a time to be borne, a time to die. If you can just count with me in your mind. How many times the word time is mentioned from here? A time to be born, a time to die, a time to plant, a time to plock of that which is planted verse three, A time to kill, a time to heal, a time to break down, and a time to build up. A time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn, and a time to dance, a time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together, a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing. We can even stop the Okay, let's look at six and then we'll stop. There. A time to get and a time to lose, a time to keep, and a time to cast away. Now look at how many times every one of those times represents seasons. And all of those seasons have effects. Because if you are in the time to plant and you don't know, you won't plant. If you are in the time to reap and you don't know, you won't reap. If you are in a time for war and you don't know how to put your regalia to fight, are we together? If you are in a time to run and you are still carrying warfare regalia, it will not become an instrument of safety, to become a burden to you, because. When you are an athlete, you want to be as light as. Possible, but when you're a warrior, you want to have all of your amory because safety and defense is your priority. Someone learning now most believers do not know your time. I talked to you here in Coynonia that there are two reasons why Jesus cried. According to scripture, number one was John chapter eleven and verse thirty five. He wept when he was at the tomb of Lazarus, and the Bible says, oh, how he loved him. They commended the fact that he loved him sincerely. The second time Jesus cried, according to luke'synoptic account, looks after what now, help me find nineteen or whatever. I can't remember where he wept over Jerusalem. He said, if you are known, even in this your time, the things that pertain onto your peace, he says, but now they are heed from you. And the Bible says, because they did not know their time of visitation, maybe that should be forty three forty four when you break down, yes, they did not know verse forty four their time of visitation hallelujah. The first major season in the life of every believer on your journey to greatness. When God wants to use seasons to birth glory in the life of a man, there are three major seasons. The first season, it's a prophetic season, is called the season of discovery and preparation. Please write that down, the season of discovery and preparation. The man who misses this season has already missed a major part of your journey to burthen the glory of God. If you do not descernd seasons, you will waste them. If you do not descernd seasons, you will waste them. If you cannot discernd seasons, they will not profit you. Let me take that again. If you do not descend seasons, you will waste them. Great seasons will come and pass and you will not see them. And if you cannot descend seasons, then the seasons will not profit you. The season of discovery and preparation. Let's talk about this season. What does this season capture. This is a season where God himself, by his word, by his spirit, and through the instrument of men, will begin to lead you if you allow him through the paths that bring you to a point of discovery and preparation for the destiny, the prophetic destiny that He has in store for you. At this point, he will begin to bring you revelations. If you are not born again, and you get into these seasons, whether you are saved or not, you will start having unusual encounters. It will be the nodging of the spirit. He will not have to wait for his Sunday service. Now you can not that nogin. God is trying to help you maximize that season, because he's telling you that all men have these seasons. Whether are you an idol worship back? Can I tell you this? The Bible says, no one is without excuse. There is nobody in his lifetime who will not receive this nodge God everybody a chance to be great. It is only that most people do not know. You get to a point where you are having on usual dreams three months dreams every night, access to materials you. Are not interested in. This is all the Holy gooes. He is trying to point you to. The fact that you are in a Chiros season and he can help you as I'm helping you now to define that season. The first season is not manifestation. It is discovery and preparation. There are three things you have to discover and prepare for in this season. Number one, the season of discovery and preparation demands that you discover in fact four. Number one, you must discover God. Genesis chapter one, verse one, in the beginning God, So the beginning of your destiny will have to be God. Dan near eleven thirty two. The be part. But the people that to know their God. This is the season where the Holy ghost will begin to push you. Do you know? Now it's not written in the Bible, but I would tell you from my experience. For most young people, that season starts from secondary school into campus days. Tshar reinstitution that season. This season. I'm mentioning it seems as. If these seasons are broken into ten year circles. Ten year circles. If you are fortunate, do you know it is because of this season that sometimes parents who are discerning the holy ghosts will begin to prompt them to send their children to certain schools, because where that child goes to can adopt to what that child becomes. It may not be the wealthier school, but there is someone within that school that would teach. That child something that is destiny. Needs, So the trouble starts from parents without due respect. If the parents are not discerning, they can carry that child because at that age, the child. Does not have the power to stand on his own. He's still under the influence of the parents almost totally. Are you seeing the role that parents can play in destroying the destiny of children. The fact that you have a child does not give you exclusive ability. To do with that child anything you want to do. Until that child gets to an age of maturity and adulthood. You must meet wife between God and that child, asking God for direction for that child's destiny past season, so that by the time that child becomes a man or a woman, you have helped them so fine that journey they. Can now continue on their own. If someone learning pray the name of the Lord, it is a great advantage to the destiny of a child. If the parents are born again and enlightened, if they love the Lord. I'm telling you, do you know you imagine if el Hannah and Hannah we're not serious with God? How did Samuel come? Was it not the intercessory ministry of his mother? Do you know that I truly believe with all my heart that if Hannah did not go to the temple to cry before the Lord, she began to sense. I hope you know. She was going there every day, every day. But a season came in the spirit and she went and prayed a certain kind of prayer. You think that prayer. She just prayed it just by herself. The Holy Girls quickened it in her. Because it was time for Samuel to come. She had to make it again with God. And Samuel came as Eli prophesied. What if Eli was not there that day when she went for the prayer, let me tell you the truth. When his season comes, mysterious alignments happened. Someone you have no business meeting, but is connected in your destiny. God can delay the flight of that man to make sure he meets you. He may not understand it is in her sight you will see how things are that themselves. There are people who would have missed their destiny by one day if only they discern if you, if you didn't take that journey. That day, you never would have met the destiny helper. If someone understanding this, I look at my life as I'm speaking to you, and I can tell you how I would have missed seasons at the edge of a knife, sometimes. The spirit of God. Look what happened to the uptopian Enoch, the Lord told Philip, get up quickly, go be on your way. Timing matters and destiny the season of discovery. At this point the Holy gooses begins to help you to discover God. Number two, This is a time where you discover yourself. You don't have all the time to discover yourself. There is a time allotted. There is a best. Before time when you must find out who you are, who you are in Christ. As we teach a school of ministry students. You know why because your destiny, the efficient manifestation of your destiny, has been calculated in time, and if you lose time, it will take the messy of God for you to manifest discover yourself. Can you imagine that. Jeremiah at age whatever age, as a child, a baby, he was already prophetic enough to be discussing with God Jeremiah one and verse five, while you were your mother's womb, before dou came as fourth, I called you, I sanctified you. Are ordained you to be a prophet to the nations. Verse six. The young boy now said ah, I am a child. I can't speak. He thought that you will begin to profess I immediately as a young boy. God was revealing to him that he was a prophet. And so he was afraid because he thought, you start prophessigning immediately, not knowing that there's timing and there's seasons. Verse seven. God was revealing him to him from a prophetic standpoint, and the Lord says, say not, I'm a child. For THU shall go to wherever I send you, and wherever I command you, you shall speak. Verse eight. He says, do not be afraid of your faces, and with you to deliver you. Verse nine, he. Says, he puts forth, his hand touched my mouth and said, I've put words in your mouth. Verse ten. And then he says, I have said the over nations. Look, what is telling a child. A child? I've set the over nations and other kingdoms to root out, to pull down, to destroy, to throw down. To plant. Verse eleven, he says, moreover, the Lord came and told him, Jeremiah, what do you see? Is I see the rod of an almond tree? I like Verse twelve, And he said, I will hast send my word. It will happen immediately, but I would give. It speed. Word to perform it. Can I tell you for someone? You are just one year left to get out. Of this season? You have not been maximizing the season God gave you, say, a ten year circle. Within that circle, you were supposed to know God in such a thorough way. Number two, to know yourself, not just your personality, but to know. Who you are in Christ. Are we together? Number three? What do you know? In this season of preparation? You discover your abilities, your giftings, and every spiritual investment that God has placed within you. You discover your abilities. Please write it down. Your giftings and every spiritual ability. God has put within you. Your giftings and your abilities are the tools with which God will use. Are we together to beth His glory in your life? But if you don't know they are there? Moses, if you do not know your rod will be needed, you would not be able to refine yourself and know. How to use it. David, if you do not know that your sling you see that now. The first day. David used his sling was not on Golia's head. He had been using it not knowing that that sling that was seemingly nothing would be the very instrument that will bring him to notoriety. I'm reminded of the story of the woman in Second King, Chapter four, from verse one and two, the wife of the sons of the prophet, a certain woman. The Bible says she came to Elijah, saying, your servant, my husband is dead and down knows that thy savant defeared the Lord. Isn't this amazing? The guy found God, but there was something about his ability he did not know. The creditor is come to take my two sons as bond men. Verse two, Elijah said onto her, what shall I do? Tell me what has now in your house? Look up? There are two things you must discover. First, what is in your house and what is in your hand? Two things. They will all be needed to bet the glory of God in your life. What is in your hand and what is in your house You. Need to find out. What is in your house can be what is within you, because you are a house yourself. It doesn't just mean something outside of you. What is in your house can be something that is within you. What is in your house and what is on your hand will be instruments that God will use to bring deliverance to your life and to use you to bring deliverance to others. Where enjoined today the ministries of several people within the body of Christ and within this house, there was a time of discovery. Discovery. You must discover God. You must discover yourself in light of prophecy. You must discover your giftings, your abilities, and the spiritual investments that God has placed within you. Can I tell you the truth? Please look at me. How many of you know that, if you are to be honest, you have seen similitudes of your future as a child. It's only that you were not trained to understand it. Some of you saw the sun, the moon, eleven stars. You had certain dreams, but maybe, with all due respect, your parents were not spiritual enough. Of all the dreams you had, those ones. Refused to leave you because there was prophecy connected to them. If you had an opportunity to be mentored, you would have been guided immediately without wasting years into prophecy. But some of you, with all due respect, those dreams already pointed what you should study in school. But because the people around you are not discerning, you went to read something else that has no bearing to your destiny right now now. Don't feel bad, but I am telling you you can't reduce the body of destiny when you get prophecy and understand these seasons. First. First, I can imagine Elisha farming, and every time I Lastia was farming. I'm sure maybe he had dreams. The Bible does not say it. I'm sure maybe he had simplitudes. There's nothing wrong with agriculture, there's nothing wrong with being a farmer. But I'm sure there was something in him. You are made for more. You are going to be speaking the counsel of God to nations. There are kings and generals who are at the messy of your anointing if and when developed. Although the Bible does not say it, but remember, it is God who is. At work in us, even while you are not yetting his purposes. He is at working you that lodging. It is God who is at working you that desire to pray in a way you cannot explain. It is God who is at working you. Even before you started learning about prayer, you found out that there was an appetitite. Do you know why? Because it is part of the requirement need that for the kind of ministry. God is bringing in you, so he does not have to wait till you hear is samon. He's at working you. There are some of you who do. But with all due respect, you really did not come from discipline families. Yet you do not have any terrible past. I will tell you why. It was God who was at working you when you had the opportunity to destroy yourself as a young girl and as a young guy. No parents stop you, no rules stop you. God prohibited you for the sake of prophecy. It is God who is at. Work in you. You must understand this, God who is at working you. I remember those times I will carry a stick and go behind the house and I'll be preaching. I just thought it was not drama. Am I trusted in acting drama? It is God. Let me tell you this. When God begins to cooperate with your destiny, it takes a serious level of rebellion to resist it because it is powerful. It will be as if God is insisting on you. You will have a dream and counsel that dream. He will be patient. After four months, he will come with that dream again. You will go to bed and have that dream again. He would change different scenes till you finally receive it. What is this thing in every time? People are crying? It's not all prophetic dreams that are demonical. The leady says she had a dream and she was breastfreiting children. Someone as are you're in trouble your destinies. But no, no, no, no, no no, it may not necessarily be children. Talk of visions. You don't just conclude that he's a demoniting. No, no, it may be that God is telling her that, like Mary, remember what I told you about patterns, there is an allocation to your destiny where you are going to be betting visions. You will be like a midwife. Can I tell you the truth? There are people because of your destiny. God never allowed you to enter one relationship as a young girl. The day guy comes, you say God, what about it? He will't even answer you. You said, just focus on what we're doing. Because you are married. It matters the state of your womb as at the time you are carrying Jesus, and so he kept you someone learning. Now this is very powerful. It is God who is at work in us. There are some nodgings you are having right now that is beyond this salmon. A salmon only brings verification. You're saying, so this is what God is doing. There are some of you who have been called do you know? I will tell you a humors story. Many years ago in primary school were acted. You know, there's this composity drama they do, say primary five or six. I can't remember now, and I acted in that drama as a rich man. Come on, now, I remember that drama. I'm telling you the top pieces of paper and then I was I think I was sharing it welfare. Now no, no, I'm not. I hope you don't misunderstand me. Who knows there's something about your life that has been repeating is God. That's why you pray against it. It won't go. God is telling you there is a mighty warrior in you. You try to shrug it up. You see, you have a right to reject it. But until your rebellion becomes consistent and God sees that you understand what. He's saying and you chose to say no, he will not leave you. For some of you. You're coming here is by the Holy Gooes, because you're in a season where some things must come out, and there is a timing for it. If your siblings grow beyond a certain age without you imagining, they can die overnight. And so God is horring with your training. And that's why he sent you quickly to Cononia, so that an accelerated process. I'm telling you this is true. The season of discovery, listen, and preparation. War. Besides, a man who stands before Pharaoh or stands before God Liad, and you don't know the tools God gave you. When go Liad said who are you? You said, well, I don't know. Life does not give you that chance to say I don't know. When you stand before God liards, that is the time of mastery and accuracy. You do your homework before you stand before him. But let me tell you something with seasons. Seasons don't wait for you. They keep passing even while you are wasting them. You will wake up and find out. It's like a student. Look at me, how many students does exam wait for? The exam is coming a school of ministry. Students just wrote your exams yesterday, Whether you read or not, that's not the exams business. There is a season for the exam. It's for you to hurry up to catch up. I'm telling him I sense in my heart for someone. God is saying, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up. You have delayed this thing. Hurry up. By now, by this season, you would have known God. You don't know him yet. You would have discovered yourself. You don't know yourself yet. You would have discovered the giftings, the annoying things, they equippings. And you are yet to find that out. And yet the season is about to change to the next. David discovered everything he had. He discovered you was a warrior. He was in the willderness filing himself. He discovered he could sing. He was in the wilderness writing songs. Perhaps he discovered you was loyal. He had leadership, a comen You don't have every time to train yourself. There is a season that is called best before. That's before best Before. There are people who will be wishing prophecy. I tell you they will grow old and die and never do one tenth of their assignment, because the fact that you had a vision of your prophetic destiny does. Not guarantee you will work in it. Seasons can reveal the glory of God in a man, if you know how to work with it. Whether you waste seasons, or invest in seasons and use them profitably. That is up to you. The imagines again, I'm sounding this. God is telling someone horror. Horror, horrio, young man, horror. God started knowledging you since age eleven till now you are tatty. You've not paid attention to him. Every time you want to pay attention after salone, the devil uses friends to distract you. You go back again. You do not know that it's a trap. I'm telling you. Just when you want to be serious with God, one post from social media will make you to say, you see all these child people, they are not serious, and you are the one doing your own destiny. Because can I tell you, at the end of it, none of the people misleading you will take responsibility for your failure. Some of you. According to your prophetic program, you should have understood the loss of wealth by now. You should have been preparing for the kind of kingdom resources God will give you what Until now, greed is stilling your heart. You've not given the Holy Spirit room to pune you, to build you. God has told you you will be a prophet. You've seen yourself prophet sighed, but you are not prepared. God cannot carry an ill repair vessel. The fact that you put profit behind your name does not mean you're a prophet. No, sir, No sir. Titles don't announce seasons or don't announce greatness. It is when you maxim my seasons they announce. You for someone. I'm telling you again by the spirit, hurry up, Hurry up, horryo. Hurry up, my dear sister, hurry up, my dear brother. You will not always have the time. Listen to what I'm telling you. Life is fragmented in season, and a major season in your life is about to end. But the preparation that that season should capture you see. If your exams should be written as part that season, you will fail woefully. You've not built your prayer life. You've not beauty your understanding of the world. You've not beautual consecration. You are not a person of stature and power. Are we together? You've not discovered God. You've not discovered yourself. You've not discovered your gift things, and you've not discovered your prophetic assignment. Four things you must find. You must discover God. You must discover yourself in light of prophecy. You must discover your gift things, your abilities, and the spiritual investments within you. And then number four, you must find your place in prophecy. If you cannot do these four things, you have wasted the season of discovery and preparation. Please be seated, Please it, please it, please it. There are many people today by their prophetic preordination. There are songs they are supposed. To bring, but they just know they have nice voices, and the Holy Goost keeps nudging them all the time. When you come to church and someone raises a song while others are enjoying the song, you are literally seeing yourself standing. It is the Holy Ghost God who is at working you. He's telling you, why do you want to keep that gift? Those from you, the songs that should come their ladders, ladders that ashanman to rems of revival. Can I tell you the truth? Everyone, listen to me. Every time you. See a person in his season of manifestation and there is a resonance in your spirit, is because there is a portion of your assignment. It is deep calling onto deep. Whether it is a man of God, whether it is a business man. I teach you a mystery. I'm not talking of just being blessed. There are times you see a man and you are literally seeing your future. It's calling resonance. Deep is calling on too deep. You can look at a woman and something from that woman is. Answering to your spirit. You won't be able to resist it, or does maybe enjoying charge. But for you it's an importation, It's a spirit transfer. I remember those days when I would watch and hard punk, when I would watch Tell Osborne and God Center Us. For me, it was not just a salmon. There was something within them. It was like we were related from the same tribe, from the same family. I couldn't explain it, but I could not resist it. It was a fire that was pawning within my spirit, pawning within my spirits. Now I know, I know better. I know better. I know better. I know better. I know what happened to the two men in em house when they met Jesus. Deep can call on too deep. Some of you, when you look at some of the business people, you are even feeling guilty because whilst you are all about prayer. And fasting, wanting to be a man of. God, your destiny is to be a financial apostle, and you are not lazy. Sometimes you feel guilty because you want to pray like others first like others. But as much as that is profitable, it's not part of. Your equipping Esther. When you see Esther, Esther will answer to Esther Elizabeth. When you see Mary, the visions will leap. Elizabeth is ahead of Mary, but when you see the visions, it will leap. I'm telling you this, This thing I'm telling you is so powerful. You can look at a man and the man is looking at you, and you are not interacting, but the man knows that something from him is answering to your spirit. It's true. There are people that have seen in the midst of a crowd I'm talking. I can love by the red of the spirit that there is something I'm saying that is answering to the spirit of that lady, answering to the spirit of that man. That's why Paul will say, no, we no man after the flesh. He's a spirit communication. Allelujah. That is also one of the ways that you find the models. You don't choose models deep and locates them. There is a depth in the spirit. You will hear voice and hear sound, and there will be a resonance in your spirit. It's not about accuracy or preaching. It's about allocations in the spirit. Can I tell you the truth. If Ruth was mentored by Eli, she will be called the Elishah, not Ruth. It matters. Every location in the Body of Christ is connected to a specific assignment. That's why it's not good to look down on people, because in looking down on people, especially voices that are godly with integrity, you are as you discredit certain voices in the body, you are also punishing the people who are supposed. To follow them until they become Allelujah. When God is setting you up to be sere and an entrepreneur, a leader, he may are locate to say to someone. Like, with all you respect, reverence Sama dei, or something of that sort. The part times the ministry, it. May be very different, and sometimes especially among we Pentecostals, and unfortunately, some of the reckless manifestations of young ministers who. Are not called sut very properly. Sometimes they can destroy people's correct followership because they define a template that if you. Do not assume, they make it look like you will never imagine. It's not true. There are are locations in the spirit. It is the reason why there are different churches and God has different programs, albeit they connect to His universal prophetic programs. Someone learning now. There are people who are sent here because of the nature of their building, what God is bringing from them, and the way God does it is that there are people in other assemblies, but they will take electives or the places. You know how you take. Electives as a student because certain things you need may not be captured in the experience of that man of God. So God will shift you for a season to draw something, and then you'll continue what you are doing. I wish there was a better way of explaining this thing to you. Sometimes spiritual things are difficult to explain. But you understand what I've said so far. Now the question I have for you is on a scale of one to ten, what would you say is your knowledge of God? Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you the truth. If you do not know God, in the days that are coming, you may fall by the wayside. I don't care whether you're a preacher, whether you're a businessman. I've seen these things in my visions. The days that are coming will so threaten people upon the earth, their stability will be the knowledge of God. Ai has come to. Stay, genetic engineering, Internet of things. There will be such disruptions upon the earth. A time will come. Men will be confused as to who they are, so it's better to find out now. Now. Jesus walked to the disciples and said, who do men say that either son of man Am And some said you are Elijah, some said you're whatever. It is allelujah. But I know whom I believed, and I am persuaded, persuaded, persuaded. Man of God. Before you meet Janess and Jambers, understand how God moves. If not, one day you will. Stand with Janis and Jambers and not know the difference between a. Fake miracle and a real miracle. You will be part of fraternities that would destroy your life. Not because you are bad, but because your knowledge of God. Is so low. I pray for you, hunger for his presence, Hunger to know God, hunger to invest in prayer, hunger to learn doctrine, hunger to understand the. Ways of God. Let it be released upon you in the name of Jesus Christ. Please be seated. Let's hurry up. I'm only teaching you three seasons. Season number two. So the first defining season as far as birth and glory and birth and greatness in the life of believer a believer is concern. Is the season of discovery and preparation. And I said, you discover God. You must find God and have a deep knowledge of Him. You must discover yourself in light of prophecy and in light of who Christ is. You must discover your giftings, your abilities, and the spiritual investments that have been deposited within you. And finally, you must discover your assignment, your prophetic role in God's grand scheme of things. Number two, the second season. Now listen, ladies and gentlemen, according to your two scripture, and I can tell you in my own experience, this second season, you see, is the hardest season in the life of a believer. It's called the. Season of moving, the season of testing or proving, the season. Of testing or the season of proving. I can tell you this. It is in this season where God's voice will become more silent in all of your destiny. Some of you are in this season right now. You've heard me teach you that when God is silent, you have to learn that the silence of God is a language itself. Every time God is silent, he is saying something. And if you do not understand the silence of God, you will be frustrated. Watch this the greatest destruction. If Satan fails to destroy your destiny from his and see, he will wait until you get to this season. Because God is largely silent. In this season, Satan will speak using different voices and confuse your destiny. Pay attention. I want to tell you something about this season, the season of proving, the season of testing. The Totonomy, Chapter eight. Let's begin a reading from verse thirteen. When your hurts and your flocks multiply, when your silver and your gold multiply, and all that you have is multiplied, then. Your hearts be lifted up, and you forget. The lord like God which brought the fourth from out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, who led you through that great and terrible will. And spare attention wherein there were what why would God lead you through this? Read the first three words. One to go, come on, you can't see it, one to go, one to go. Question. They were led to this place, They didn't go there a resort of cheerlessness the Bible says God led them. I thought you, when God leads a man, it should be a wonderful place. You don't go through anything whatsoever. Oh no, then you don't understand the leadings that makes mighty men in the spirit. If your idea of the leadings of God, as far as destiny is concern, is that it's just a straight line from your dream until the manifestation of prophecy, you are misled. You're misled completely. Please leave it to us. Let me finish that scripture. They were led into a great and terrible wilderness. And what was in that wilderness? Resipents, scorpions dropt, There was no water. And then he brought fourth water out of the rock of flints sixteen Who fed you in the wilderness with manner which your fathers knew not? Why read the remaining part one to go that he might humble thee, and that he might prove THEE to do the good at thy latter end. Stop there if someone saying. That now that should be some sixty six Verse twelve. Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads. We went through fire and to water, but thou brought us into a wealthy place, ladies and gentlemen, If God ever told Joseph that he was going to go through the pit the prison Fortifa's house then and not a prison again, and wait your explus two years. Before he became a prime minister. I am telling you Joseph himself would have looked at God and said, I love you wherever you are, but I'm not. Interested give that assignment to someone. Can. I tell you there is a part of the prophecy of your destiny. God will never allow you to see it. You will just come into it. No matter how discerning you are, you will not be giving the liberty to see it because the nature of that training, it is so aggressive, it would discourage you. So God will just give you the end picture. He will tell you you will become a more time alone here. He will tell you become a great apostle. He will tell you your children will be great. But there is a part of that story. No matter how you pray, you will not see it. It is concealed so that it does not discourage you. And one day you will just step into the season. Let me tell you how this seasons come. They come with sometimes unprepared tragic events. I wish there for someone. This season can come. God may not be the one who cost it, but God can use everything around for someone. The that of a loved one can unsher this season. You may not know why you cannot explain someone is the loss of a job, something in your life. Let me tell you how you know you are in this season. There is a conflict between your integrity and your results. Your integrity does not change, your prayer life does not go down, your consecration does not change, your passion does not change. But it looks like the heavens are close over you. One of the ways you know you are in this season. So there is a difference between being punished for disobedience and going through the season of proving. And I'm showing you the test now. When your prayer life goes down, your word life goes down, your passion for God goes down, and tragedy strikes, you are not in the season of testing. You are ripping the harvest of carelessness and inconsistency. But there are times in the life of a man where your prayer life is intact, your world life is intact, everything is intact, and yet the heavens are closed. Test number two. You will cry and say God, why talk to me? And he will be silent. His silence does not mean he hates you. His silence is a language, is a language that when you don't hear my voice, trust my presence. Allelujah. Your confidence must be anchored on both his presence and his voice, not just his voice alone. Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of Death, I will hear no evil talk to me? Why for thou art with me? Not that you are speaking to me? Did you hear there that you are speaking to him? Some of you are going to fire right now. I am telling you God is with you. But it's a season of proving. Now let me give you a. Word of caution, and I confess to you that sometimes I've been a victim of this myself. In all honesty, there are times people are going through this season and compassion can make you to try to help them and bring them out. Of that season. You destroy that season and recycle your pain again. It's good to help people, but discern sometimes compassion can make you want to bring people out. How come this young lady loves the Lord? She's working in integrity? No house rent know whatever it is God is building a kind of compassion in that lady because of something she would be doing for people in the future. Don't destroy the training. Don't destroy the training. Sometimes you can see a brother who loves God for ten years, five years, no car, no nothing. He will try going to church. He will do whatever and joins me. He will serve God with all his heart. Everyone is going forward except him. And sometimes you can be tendered to say. What is wrong. Now, provided your integrity is in place, Just know you're going to a season. The Bible says to do the good at your latter end. Now, this is a part of the believer's experience that you have to be mentored to understand. Else you are going to be offended by God. Some of you are offended by God, offended by church. Allelujah. I remember years ago someone got angry and said, every time I pray on first during miracu service, you professor and everybody and leave me. Said the next time, if I call any name, whether I se him or not, you will come out. Because he's tired of this kind of thing. I prepare my spirits. I first I pray, I watch people get blessed, and of course I get blessed generally. But is it that God cannot look at me? Am I sorting? Is it my father's scene? It's in my scene. The person was really bitter. It's a season of proving. Question. What did Joseph do to get into the well? Nothing? How many of you know that. Sometimes righteousness leads you to trouble, and yet the Bible says you are led. The leadership of the Holy Spirit is a very serious thing. Most of us have an idea that if the Holy Goost is leading you, it will always be results and laughter. Well, with respect to a great destiny. That's not how champions are made. I can tell you stories and bore you through this night with my stories of seasons where we did everything right, but it looked like the heavens were closed. And thankfully speaking, God had shown me this early, so I knew that sometimes when you get to that season, let me tell you what to do. There is nothing to else do than to cry and give things. That is when you need to listen to messages like the staying Power. Some of you, I'm giving you an assental right now because you are in that season. You're in that season you can find a man and a woman who love God with. All their lives, ten years, fifteen years, They love Jesus with all. Their hearts, and it looks like there's no child. You see. That's what you have to be careful. Don't judge people foolishly because you can be heaping up a course upon your head. You don't know what season people are passing through. Who is learning this now? Yes, there are times people receive a recompense for their cheerlessness and their LAG's city spiritually. But I can tell you there are times where glory is being birthed in people. Seems like we still do that our new wine song, so you're prepared. It's a good song for a teaching like this. Someone is in this season right now, A man of God is in this season right now. Satan will tempt you. He will say, join this group, join this group. They will announce you faster. And then the voice of the spirit says, all the days of your appointed time. That time is appointed. Wait, I'm an usher, but it's insulting my pedigree. I mean the way I'm anointed. I've seen young young boys, why younger than me, starting their ministry. I want to start mine, and the spirit of God says, wait, wait, wait. There are two ways God lettle. There are times he can say go. There are times he keeps quiet and knowingly so, and if you want to move, he will now says stop. When you go through this season, sometimes as a man of God, God is making you will be counselling people over the same issue you are going through. God will give you solutions for them. As soon as they leave the office. You say God, what about me? God? And he becomes silent. He only speaks when there is somebody for you to help. Always discern the silence of God. You are not wasting your life. You are not wasting your days. Who is learning now? This is very powerful. I will give you room to sing it once. Then I will take it from there, so someone finds someone for me who will sing that song. I want everybody to listen. I sing these songs. They are not special numbers. They are creating and effecting your spirit for someone. God is ministering deeply to you. You're in a season where as it stands right now, you are broke financially. You went to do a master's and you were happy thinking after the master's a job will come. Your righteousness has not changed you're loving Jesus has not changed your passion for the House of God. That's not changed. And in spite of all. The prophecies that has come, it looks like twenty twenty five is your worst. Year so far. And honestly, as he stands right now, we're holding onto the last string of trust. I have your word for you. You are going through a season You're not the only one is a season that makes champions. Like an insect moves from egg lover pupa adult, no insect goes from egg to proper. No child goes from baby to adults. From baby, you go to the next stage, older baby, then you go to teenager, then adolescense, then a young adult, then middle aged man, then a grand No body called. Is impossible for a child of ten years to be called grandfather, no matter the can of favor on him. He cannot be called grandfather by biological descent. He's too young for that experience. Singing for me, everyone listened in the crashing m. In the pressing helping you interpret your caesars. Right now you were making you are and in the soul. Nur serander, you were breaking new grind. So and so you care. Where I trust you are. Don't need to want to stay. Make me the soul, make me enofer, make me whatever you. Want me to be. I care here with nothing, but have given me esusing us bring Let me encourage you. One of the most comforting scriptures for me in the Bible. Is the Scripture and it came to pass. Let me minister to someone. Perhaps you are following from across the globe. It looks like they're going to deport you because you're behind on your bills. When righteousness does not profit, God is up to something. Every time righteousness looks like a disadvantage. In your life, be patient. It is not over yet. Did you hear what I said? Don't forget this. There are times in the life of a believer where righteousness will look like a disadvantage. I tell you, if you have not faced that, keep growing, a time will come. Your loving Jesus will look like a minus in your life. You're serving Jesus will look like a minus in your life. You're raising children properly will look like a minus in your life. And sometimes people can tell you, well, I told you leave these children. You said you are raising them. Well, look at it now. Every time righteousness looks unprofitable. Don't give up. Something is birthing. There is a birthing in the spirit. There many women here with children, many women who have given birth. Yere no matter how seamless that delivery is, it cannot be one hundred percent pain free. Once we're a woman and you're about to push a child, there is a measure of traveil. Some get it easier than others. Are we together. Some have to be rushed into an emergency room because they bled. Many of that things happened. It was not part of the plan. I don't know how many women laugh when they're giving bad You can laugh before you can love by faith. But at the point of pushing, everybody is serious because life is coming out. Who is learning now? So for someone. You see that you are in a prophetic season. An apostle is imagining. Don't give up that season. Don't stop the prayer. This is the wrongest time to stop prayer. This is the wrongest time to stop coming to church. You can pick offense with everything. Husband picks of friends with a wife, and sometimes you need to intercede because Satan can use men to fight you. In this season, they make a nasty statement in passing, I've not seen the profit of your serving God. Don't tell me anything about church from the dare we started giving, we started. Going down, and they make it look as if giving. You see. Most of these troubles you. See sometimes around the body of Christ is because people have not been taught to inter preach seasons. So they carry the anger from these seasons, and they blame it on Church. They blame it on men of God, they blame it on God. I've been given. What's the benefit I've shared with you? How we held our crusades great memories. These have become price less casts upon us. Tonight than today. And in this season we did everything right, everything right. There was no money to. Pay the bills, after praying and fasting, calling upon the name of the Lord, preaching with all our hearts. And the strange thing is that when you're in this season, on. One hand of your life you will see the mighty hand of God, but in another area you will be mysteriously silent miracles people were receiving. What does it take God to give us one hundred and fifty thousand narra then at that time to pay for someund You imagine you go for crusade, you encourage people, and then at the end of it you're almost going to jail for one hundred and fifty thousand you did still, can I tell you genuine compassion is not something that is natural in men. There has to be a history that fails through compassion. When you see people who are greedy, just leave them. Life has not done them yet the day they go through the value of the shadow of death. When they see. Someone crying, they won't say, why are you crying? There's enough memory from your pain. Some of the things I do today I pull from the residue of yesteryears. It's the reason why you see when I'm teaching people, I teach you in passion because I wish I had someone who helped to interpret theseasons for us. Moctuately, where there is new wine, you see that pattern, then I give us no but tree go ahead. Were there is no way, there is now power, there is no freedom, the key domacy. I lay down my off, flee to carry on now figh city. Were there is no way, there is no power, there is no freedom, the. King domity to carry very quickly. The season of testing and proving achieves three things. Number one, it brings you to a point where you see how insufficient your strength is outside of the help and the messy of God. Write that down. The season of proving and testing achieves three things. And let me tell you the truth. Until these three things are fulfilled, you will never get out of that season. So the elia you aligned for these three things, I'll repeat myself to happen to you. It will determine the pace with which that season will come to an end. Number one, it reveals to you how insufficient your strength is outside of the help and the messy of God. Men and naturally. Arrogant until God gives them a chance to test their strength and watch it fail, they will never naturally embrace the strength of God. We may profess it in charge as a man of God. It's easy to say, Lord, I give you everything. But the truth is that the pride of man is so deep even man does not know how deep it is. It will take the season of proving. God will bring your strength face to face with life, and you will see how small your strength is. It brings you to your knees. Is someone learning? Now, go and ask any man who has been a beneficiary of the beating of glory. That will tell you this was the first thing, the season of proving. When you meet people who have gone through the season of proving, you will know it because even if there were people who are formally proud, God will arranged things that will tame that pride. By the time they come out of it, all the noise you see them make, they just keep quiet. They allow younger people to keep talking and alujah. David went to health fire. As he came out, go and see the progression of Sam's There are times he did not say some things again, the Lord is my light and my salvation. There were all that things. David said, I'd rather be a dog keeper in the house of God. You think that Sam came naturally, No, sir, No, sir, no, sir. I laid it down and I slept. I waked for the Lord to stay me, David. No. There are times you will see certain arrow gant people worshiping in church. They've never suffered, and so when others are rolling and crying that just watching what's going on here. It's because their parents are alive. It's because their. Uncle is a senator. Nothing wrong with that, congratulations, But as you step into the season of proving your father just cause and saying, now you are an adults, get out. Of my house. I didn't have plan for anything. The only inheritance I have for you is God and knowledge. You have both be on your way. That shock and that surprise, and then number two, where you are believed that your uncles and antists will give you a job. You call them and they will not reply you. You are now left in a position all by yourself. You will be angry, you will be offended till you become broken. Then you get to a point where you say, you know what, nobody owes me anything. Lord, I give up. You have passed the exams. Until that crushing happens. I am telling you that season will not stop. You will keep repeating that exams, even if it is for thirty years. If glory must be birthed in you, this season of proving must have this full work. In your life, crushing. As a man of God. One day you arrogantly go for a meeting, fool of yourself. The power of God is going to move here, and everybody is watching you like a cinema. Don't worries because you're putting off first and pray. Let's charge the atmosphere. You would charge and. Charge, play guitar, play drums, call the worshippers be angry. You will almost forget her phrase. Capture you have, and at the end of it, it will be waving papers for you. Two more minutes, everybody is tired of you, and you calm down. Someone says, Ah, but I thought they say you were annointed. Anyway, we are blessed, God bless you. God will allow that statement. For a reason. You will go back to the secret place, and God will show you that our sufficiency is not of ourselves. From that time you will learn an internal lesson. No matter how anointed you'll become in the future, you will not be ashamed of telling people my sufficiency. You can use what I'm teaching you to literally know what seasoned people are. When you see people. Bragging and saying a lot of things insulting around, be patient. Don't condemn them. They're only telling you that there are some seasons they have not entered. I'm telling you when some seasons come upon you, Ah, you just keep quiet. If somebody comes to gossip, at the end of it, you say, let's hold hands and pray for the person because you have been in that. Valley of the shadow of death someone learning. Number three, let me give you the third season. Okay, three things I said it achieves. Let me read for you quickly. Number one, there is a revelation of the insufficiency. Of your strength. Did you write that down? So there is an exchange your weakness for his strength, your weakness for his strength. Number two. The second thing that the season of proving puts in you is compassion, compassion for others. It's impossible to really be a person of compassion, like the Bible demands, without going through certain seasons. It's not true. The Bible says, to comfort orders with the same comforts that we have received. Allelujah, prayse the name of the Lord. There are times that tragedy disaster will strike over your life. And by the time it comes and you enjoy comfort from orders help from God, you will be quick. You know, growing up as a little boy, I used to wonder why parents, and you know, some of our elderly people, especially those from sixty seventy. Eighty, every burial, they are there, every. Thanksgiving there and sometimes you know, as children, you keep asking most they be there? Do you know everybody that dies. Today you say this one died. I used to know him. He was a prince wal in nineteen seventy one. Now, after many years, I now see the wisdom. There is a way you go to pain. You will be quick to stand and help others. Than now. There are many many people that can tell you who have not entered this season yet. And God has very many ways of routing this season to your life. He does not have to use things like death and sickness, but he has a way. I can't tell you your strength will eventually fail you. And you know it's not a demoney thing. It's not setan who is behind it. God is giving you a chance to see how frail you are outside of His help. Number two compassion, compassion, compassion. Number three trust trust trust, not just fate. Trust. These are the three things that this season's bueled. Let me repeat it again. It reveals to you how frail, how limited you are, your strength is outside of God's help and messy. And then in acknowledging your weakness, your weakness is exchange. For His strength. Number two, it plans with you compassion for others. And then number three, it builds trust you can even at trust and confidence because the time is going to come where you will not fear your fears again. Do you know I've taught you in this house that one of the ways God delivers you from fear sometimes is not. Taking the fear away, it's bringing you in the midst of the fear. You will stare at the fear for a long time, financial fear, God's case, all kinds of trouble, and you'll sleep and wake up in the midst of that fear until it no longer has the power to haunt you. Have you seen that happen to people? You run away from your landlord. You were returning home in the night and living in the morning. One day you say, you know what, I will take myself to the landlord. You knock his house and say, sir, let me tell you the truth. I can't pay this rent. I'm not your criminal. My father is dead, my mother is dead. I may collin on your member. The person looks at you and says, God already told me to help you. At that point, there are some fears you will not fear again. Can I tell you the truth? Many times, the way to build courage and believers is not to take them away from the challenges is to keep the challenges in the midst of them. The three Hebrew boys came out of the fire, but they had an experience they never would have had if they were avoided from going into the fire. It is true that the lions did not eat Daniel, but at least he was in proximity with them all through the night. No matter how friendly a lion is, if you. Look at it and it looks at you in a covered hole all through the night, something will happen to you about trusting God that would never leave you for the rest of your life. What I said, the lion does not have to hurt you. The fact that you know there is no Plan B. The moment there is Plan B, your trust cannot be trusted. So God brings you to a point where Plan B c ef all fail and you are face to face with what can destroy you. Then it will show you messy. It's the reason why sometimes you come to preach as you are laming, Ah, I lost this, I lost one billion, My life has gone down. My card this one or that, my wife says, just leaving me the mouse. Have you eaten? Are you like I'm telling you something serious. A man says, sit down and let me tell you my own story. And when it's don't tell you his own story, you will see how small your story is. In ansays, let's pray and you can trust God. One of the beautiful things about these seasons is that they will give you enough stories to comfort people with you have not come out of the seasons if you don't come up with stories. I'm not talking of make believe stories, real stories. Time will fail me to talk of Gideon and Jafta and Barack, men who through faith subdued kingdoms, shot the amounts of lions. There must be a testimony of endurance, a testimony of trusting God in the midst of the fire. Don't forget these three things, the frailty of your strength outside of the help of God. One of the benefits of this season of pruning, this season of testing, this season of proving Number two compassion. Because you are left here alone. It's usually a lonely season. And you see all those who have talked about, those who have criticized, those who have done a lot of things, and you see that they even had more tamina than you. It plans compassion in you. And then number three it helps you to trust God. Let me give you the third key, who is learning something tonight? Blessed be the name of the Lord. The third is called the season of appearance or the season of manifestation. We read that. Already in Luke chapter one, from verse eighty. When you read John two, John two, three and four popular scripture. The wedding in Kena of Galilee. The Bible says, and when they wanted wine, remember the story, the mother of Jesus said onto them, they have no wine. Thus four and Jesus said, unto her woman, what have I to do with thee Jesus himself knew that he was timing. He said, my time, my hour, in other words, my hour for manifestation has not yet come. Even though he was moving around invited for a wedding, but he knew his time had not come. But because the Bible says, we do not have a high. Priest who has not been tempted, he was tempted in. Every way like us. Yet without saying, there's compassion the embarrassment that the people were going to face in that wedding. He knew that even though it was not his time, because he had compassion, he still spoken miracle for them. Seizing of manifestation. Now, listen, this is when God begins to announce you. And I don't have the time to tell you how God announced his man. But there are two principal ways. Number one, God uses men to announce men. But number two, God uses a supernatural means sometimes without the assistance of any man, to announce men. God can use men. That is his usual way of announcing you, a platform, an opportunity. Are we together now to announce you? How do you know you are your season of manifestation. The same thing you did yesterday that did not create an effect, now begins to create such notable effect. Sometimes you are even flattered. The same business you didn't change it, the same preaching you didn't change it, same anointing. When the same thing produces accelerated results, you have entered your season of manifestation. There are many things that I know now more than I knew before, and there are men areas where have access knowledge. But I can tell you quite honestly, fundamentally, there are not very many things I'm doing now that I was not doing before. But it was simply because of seasons. Are we together. Now, the same farmer can throw seas during dry season and it does not produce so much. But during the rainy season he has an advantage. The weather, the climate, everything is supporting you, and with little, minimal efforts, it will produce. Much for someone. And I'm announcing to you. By prophecy, not too long from now, like the page of a book, there's going to be a flipping of a season, Allelujah. Whether it's a ministry or business. There are people in business who ten years ago they were not known. There are people in ministry ten years ago they were not known. Do you know there are people as little as five years ago they did not know me. This is not incredible. As little as five years six years ago, they didn't even know there was any body called Joshah Sellman. There is speed when you enter your season of appearing. Everything announces you. Everything animate and inanimate is like something is saying here ye him, Something is saying here ye him, here yeh. And I'm speaking to someone in the name of Jesus. I stand tonight as a prophetic midwife to show you into this season of appearing, to us show you into this season of manifestation. In the name of Jesus Christ, allelujah. I can tell you times when God began to open. These seasons in my own life. I don't have time for that, but it's true. There are some of you doing businesses now, do you know? There are certain businesses that have been longer than people knew, but they were in this season of testing. The businesses were in Abuja here, there were Nigeria here. They tried their remodel, remodel. Nothing happened, but in a certain season, sometimes. Within one month. And they're not gospel singers in this country. They've always been there. But this season comes. You hear people even say it's your time, and they are right, it's your time. Your time, I'm telling you. When it is your season, little things can announce you. Little God can invite you as a man of God to go and preach somewhere and just make all your destiny. Help us to follow that program, and everybody says, who is this from where? Without any effort on your pants. I need to tell you something about this season before we pray tonight, because it. Is a very sensitive season. If you don't know how to manage it, you can lose the blessings that come with the season. This season can flatter you, you to a point where, because you are coming into the consciousness of people, you become sometimes. For want of world is celebrity overnight. Now you have to glean from your trainings of your season of pulling to be able to navigate this season well or the wise. You will make careless mistakes and the season will end up becoming a cost for you. It is in this season people forget God. It is in this season people forget their scars. It is in this season that's why. You warn them. In Digitonomy chapter eight, it says, let it not be that when you are build houses, when everything has multiplied, the season of appearing is the season of multiplication ten jobs. You are not necessarily praying about jobs, but jobs are coming everywhere. All of a sudden, you become a tech brand that everyone wants to patronize, and you are wondering. You struggle for visa for years and not get But in that season, it's like you're meeting every helper they can stand visits of everywhere. Life trust becomes easy. Can I tell you if you don't learn the dynamics of working in this season, great things can become a cost in your life in that season. Let me give you four things to do when you're in this season. Quickly, I pray that God is speaking to you. Number one, when you step into your season of manifestation, your season of appearance. Number one, the first thing you need to do is perpetually acknowledge God in the presence. Of all who celebrate you. Perpetually acknowledge God in the presence of all who celebrate you. Prohaps Chapter three five to seven. Perpetually acknowledge God. Please don't forget this. Write it down. Perpetually acknowledge God in the presence of those who celebrate you. Become ashamed of the one who lifted you, in the presence of those who celebrate you. Then those who celebrate you one day will say, crucify him. When God lifts you and you step into your season of appearing, whether in ministry, they will call you all kinds of names. Apostle Joshua Selman, you are the only a person in the world and all those kinds of names. It is up to you to perpetually acknowledge God. It's a culture I have trained myself. I learned this from the life of our father. And the Lord that did you in his eighties. Even sometimes if it's on background, he has created a system. You may not have to knee like him, but it's this way of letting the world know that, even at eighty something, I am nothing without him. Beware of the deception of being a celebrity. Go and find out the end of many celebrities. There are no self made people in this kingdom. Greatness is a trust. And when God brings you to the point where you emerge where you are budding like a tree, you become a giant oak tree. Many other birds and animals come. To nest around you. You must acknowledge God, He's made you a more time milloonere. Now, He's made you a billoonere. Now the palace has eroded your pain of the wilderness. Make sure you do not forget him. If there is anything I fight in my life, it's any opportunity that puts me in a place where I forget God. I've told God time and time again, and I'm saying it now even as I'm preaching that if there is any opportunity you will give me that will make me have to fight His place in my life. May it never come. I'd rather be a failure letting men see him than to claim success by my own strength. That's why when people brag and said they're getting this because of this, I keep quiet. I know how my own game, I'm a product of God's messy, messy church is quiet. I hope you are getting this now, perpetually acknowledge God. Number two, what do you do when you get into your season of appearing? Build a system that protects your convictions and a system that protects the spiritual activities that maintain your fire. Build a system that protects your convictions and a system that protects your spiritual activities like prayer. In other words, you protect the continuity of your practicing the things that brought you to that rem Build a system that protects your convictions and the system for your continuous or really does I'm writing here for your continuous spiritual and mental growth. That means when you get into the season of appearing, chances are excellent. You can be distracted, but you must build a system that protects your convictions. Build a system that can allow you to continue the spiritual and mental activities that brought. You to become a champion. In other words. Build a system that protects your prayer life. Build a system that protects your values. Build a system that protects your words sturdy life. We find that in Act chapter six, from verse four, when the church started growing, the church was expanding. They now wanted the apostles to leave the matter of ministry, prayer and the world and start focusing on welfare. And the apostle said, no, this is a this fraction. Get seven men full of wisdom, and the Holy goes. I point them over this business verse four. But for us we will give ourselves continually. Someone say continually. One more time, say continually, not circumstantially. Continually to prayer and to the ministry of the world. Can I tell you, whatever brought you to the top, do not leave it. Do not leave it. If loyalty brought you to the top, hold it. If godliness brought you to the top, hold it. If prayer brought you to the top, hold it. If wisdom brought you to the top, hold it. Because you get to a point where the anchor you are holding on as men trap for you looking at you with such godlike admiration, sometimes you forget that you are holding on to something that's why you are there. You can leave whatever you're holding on to focusing on the applauds of men, and the fall will be hard because you are falling from an altitude. It's good to receive honor from men. Nothing wrong. I've received many, many awards in my life, and sometimes I take them. Quickly away from me. As much as I appreciate those awards, they can be very deceptive. While they're thanking you for where you have come. Sometimes they become a blockade to where. You need to go to. Number one, perpetually acknowledge God. Number two, build systems that protect your conviction and systems for your continuous spiritual. And mental growth. Number three, build quality through destiny relationships. Leverage on that influence. Leverage on the advantage of your being renowned to build quality relationships, quality relationships, quality relationships. Now, I will tell you something about relationships. As much as possible, don't throw away those who believed in you when you wear nothing what I said, when you step into your season of appearance, trust reduces because those who watch you are watching your crowns. There are close on you. Now. They can't see your cars, but there are people who know your cars. Sometimes The flat three of seasons of appearing is. That because you're in a hurry to change relationships, you can have relationships that have a physical advantage. But it's full of betrayers and liars and psychophones. There's so many great people today who are them peers and wounded because they're surrounded by liars and psychophanes. Who will not say yes Sir to a rich man when they see money, who will not say yes Sir to an anointed man when they see anointed, who will not say yes Sir to someone who he say captain having influence over people, you. Must be aware. In the midst of the many yes us, in the midst of people shouting King of king, celebrity, you must sustain the eye of the spirit to discern Hallelujah, prays the name of the Lord. Build quality relationships. Is someone learning? Now, let me give you the last instruction. When you get into your season of appearing, Raise men who will preserve and extend your relevance. Raise men who will preserve and extend your relevance. If you fail at this one, you will not last. Raise men. Don't get carried away by the honor, the accolades or the good doings of God in your life, that you forget to raise men. Because no matter how exceptional you are on. Stage, life is in seasons. One day you will not be the one on that stage. Whether you like it or not. You may not have to be the one on the stage, but you can remain relevant because the one on the stage you have a testimony of raising them. Are we together? Now, let me tell you this. One of the most tragic things in life is to once be great, once be a celebrity, once be an anointed man, that in your lifetime you lose kingdom relevance. The reason is because you. Are so carried away by your success you forgot to raise men. And this is true for a man of God. I don't care how great you are. Show me the people you are raising. If you raise them and they decide to be rebellious, that's their lot. But raise men, politicians, raise men. Now that you are in office, raise men. Don't justus what people tell you. Yes, sir men, captains of industry. Raise men. Today you are a director, you are a CEO. Raise men. Let somebody get a job because of you, not from a selfish way, so that tomorrow they take care of you. But I can tell you you will read what you saw show men kindness. Raise men. I have the honor and privilege of supporting different groups, charge groups and other groups, and I do that with joy. I don't do that just because I'm investing in them for selfish reasons. But I can tell you, by the. Grace of God, those things invariably will speak in your future. Raise men. I've seen many great people who pass orders and people who just greet them, yes sir, and as soon as they turn they frown their faces and say, this person his hand, this is like this, this person is this. Let that not be your testimony. Raise men. You are not called to raise everybody, but raise somebody. Make somebody's life better, become. A leverage to someone. And tomorrow, when life pushes you out of the stage, someone who is on the stage will bring you back to the stage and announce to people and. Say, even though his season is over, are we together because this person invested in my life. I want you to know there are fathers today. The only thing that will fed them away is death. In fact, not even death can fed them away because they have their signature. In righteousness in the life and the history of too many people. There are politicians who have immortalized their impact already. Even if they die today, they are still. Alive in people. There are some persons that are not really of renown, but they have raised people. Someone like Dr Miles Munroe. He's long dead, but some of us today we are beneficiaries of his mentorship. We are still immortalizing his impact. We shout his impact to the nations, that he modeled many things to our lives. The question is who will remember you when seasons change? Who will remember you? Joshua Shellman. People are celebrating you now. Who will remember you? Whether you will like it or not, seasons will change. If you are not raising men today, you are not investing in anybody's destiny. I'm not talking of your king people with a selfish proposition so you can use them in the future. Genuinely loving people and raising them, this is helpful. Maximize the season of appearing ladies and gentlemen. There is an imagine that it's happening in the body of Christ right now. And among the many. Seasons that are upon men, these three seasons are important. The seasons of discovery and preparation, the seasons of proving and testing, then the seasons of manifestation or your appearing. My prayer for you tonight is that, at whatever level you are in any of these seasons, may you pass the test. And may you last. I refer you to my message ekeboard obtaining the grace to last. You need to obtain the grace to last. I also refer you to my message, the strategy for consistency. Listen to these two messages. God is a god that gives longevity to impact. If you want to add a third one, you can add the law of seasons on raveling the mystery of Pharaoh's dream. Seven years of plenty. Followed by seven years of nothing in my life, and as much as God has helped me, I don't want to just be known as a man who was so anointed and who had great influence over people. I also want to be known as. A man who loved God with all my heart and inspired a generation to seek Him sincerely. And while I was at that that, I was able to raise as many to give them an opportunity to taste, to become vessels of glory. Is the reason why I spend my life day in day outstretching myself doing the things. That I'm doing. I don't have to do what I'm doing. It is a passion that God has given me this unique privilege. He placed me in a unique position of influence. I'm not the first to stand where I'm standing. There are others who stood here. They've gone to be with the Lord. They gave way. Now which our season, and this is part of us maximizing this season, and Coinonia hear me. It is my prayer that in my lifetime I will see everyone image that, many more apostles who rise, many more prophets who rise, many more kingdom entrepreneurs who rise, that governors and precedents on that this influence, this grace, this mentorship, they will arise, not just in Nigeria but across Africa. And the day will come when we enter a. Nation the president will say, I'm a fitful member of Coinonia and I'm leading my nation from the value system that has come from here, that you get to the Crusette ground and the man of God from tearing the program of God. Within that nation. We say, Apostle, the reason why I'm lasting today is because I listen to your message on imagines, and I learned how seasons, but the glory of God. It is my prayer for you that this message will not be a disadvantage to you. Rise upon your feet, hold the hands of someone unless pray. Rise upon your feet, hold someone's hands. In one minute, Please pray, Father, thank you for your word. Tonight you're holding someone's hand and thanking him. Blessed are your ears for this that they have heard. You've been rescued from making life destroying, damaging decisions. This is the power of God's word comes to give you intelligence. One minute. Please go ahead and pray one minute, sing that song Hozanna for me, and then we're going to pray. Father, Thank you. Now begin to intercede for yourself. Be the first intercessor for your destiny. Tonight, Lord, I do not want to lose these strategic seasons of my life. These are decisions that sponsor imagines. Go ahead and pray, hosing shall hos. Let awear from your half boss. That would be your song to your as a slight as your slow else for the king, who say. I like you to pray every one of these seasons. Lord, let me not feel the test if you have missed out on your season of preparation and discovery. I like you to cry and say, Lord, by your messy, bring back these seasons for me. I can't catch up by your spirit, even if it is one year. Give me that probation for one year. Let me catch up by your spirit. Let me learn the things that makes for stutchre Let me learn the things that make for stability through carelessness. I have missed out on these seasons. I didn't know when my season of preparation, my season of discovery. Came and passed. I did not have the sensitivity of the sons of Isaka. I could not descend the times. I didn't know what to do. Now I'm twenty, I'm thirty, I'm forty, I'm fifty, I'm sixty. What the Bible says, there is hope for it. Three, even if it be cut off at the center of what it will bother gain someone. Pray, bring back this seasons where you're messy. Some of you wasted this seasons like the prodigal soul. You had a plethora of privileges around you. You are busing through carelessness, through insensitivity, through wrong decisions, sabotaging decisions. Cry for messy. Lord, show me messy. Let the hand of the clock go back for my sake, Give me an opportunity, a gay to learn. God, give me an opportunity akay, to discover myself in prophecy, to discover myself in light of Christ. Give me an opportunity to discover my giftings, my abilities, the spiritual investments you put within me. Give me an opportunity to find my role in the grand scheme of prophecy. Go ahead and pray for those of you who are in the season of pruning. Open your mount and pray. I receive the staying power, the grace to call you faithful even when I do not understand you, the grace to stay and to remain like job. That all the. Days of my appointed time. I will wait. I will wait, I will wait. I will wait all the days of my appointed time. I will wait until my change comes, until an emergence happens. Go ahead and pray the grace to call you faithful even when I cry in the midst of disappointments, in the midst of fire, in the midst of scopyons, in the midst of unfavorable situations. When my prayer life does not seem to deliver, when righteousness seems to be a disadvantage, when. My knowing you does not seem to yield immediate profit. I received the stamina the grace to at last this season for those of you who are already in your season of imagenies. You are being known. Your generation has received you. They are receiving you. They are singing Hosanna. Blessed is he that comes in the. Name of the Lord. Pray for grace to perpetually. Acknowledge God as the basis for ever pretty good in your life. Obtain grace to create systems that protect your conviction, that protect your consecration, that protects your prayer life, protect your world life. Protect your totios habits. Obtain grace to identify and build strategic relationships, and then obtain grace to be able to raise others that there will be continuity to God's program because of your efficient and effective witness. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray, Amen and Amen, I'm going to make the altar called down. Tonight is a very serious night, ladies and gentlemen. We are in the days of. His power, and the Bible says that people shall I'll be willing, and it's a risk, especially in the days that we're in now, to reject Jesus. I told you that the believer must be a product of encounters. For certain I know that there are people in this place tonight, in the main hall, all your overflows outside and those falling online who are saying apostle. If you will give me a chance with Jesus, I want to win this war. My father never introduced me to Jesus. My mother didn't, my siblings didn't, all those who went ahead of me didn't. But now that I hear your voice, I want to make it right with Jesus. Wherever you are, I'm going to count one to five without any coersion. I like you to leave your city and run here, and you are saying apostle. I also want to dedicate my life to Jesus. Please pick your back, to your Bibles, everything you came to church with, and I like you to be on your way gallantly. Don't be afraid, don't be ashamed, don't wait for someone before you come. This is you and Jesus. Let's honor them as they come. God bless you, God bless you. I'm counting five and I begin to pray. God bless you, my dear one. God bless you. Come, Come Cordonia.

Let's encourage them as they come. Three. Keep coming. Run to Jesus, Run to Jesus. Those who are falling online, here's your chance to make Jesus lord of your life, whether by way of television, internet, here's your chance.
