Please left your voice and passionately cry, passionately, cry for an encounter by your spirit, even by your word. He sends forth. His word did hailed them, It delivered them from all their oppression. So h. My eyes are open tonight, my years are open tonight to hear the words of the spiryas Lord. I came here with a hunger, I came here with a desperation. I came here with an intention tonight. To receive, to be transformed, to be lifted, to be blessed, to get all. Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord. I like you to pray. It is not the word that is available that would change you. It is the word that is accurately taught, understood, received by faith, and applied diligently. That is the word that produces. Proximity to the world. Does not bring transformation, it doesn't bring results. I like you to pray further every familiarity that my mind and the devil. Will want to bring to your word, to your atmosphere, I cause it in the name of Jesus, my heart ever panting for you, ever hungry for you, lift your voice and pray. Telling macatous chapra negativa, approaching you with the spirit of reverence, approaching you with hunger and. Higher h. M hmmmm, allelujah, in the name of Jesus Father. It remains an honor, it remains a privilege. We will never take your presence for grand said, we will never take the privilege of the gathering of the saints for granted. We worship you like you so deserve. We adore you, We honor you. We decree and declare that you remain Lord over our lives, Lord over this house. And I pray in the name of Jesus that you will bless us tonight. We have come as a confession of our limitation in wisdom. We have come as proof that we remain students in the school of the Spirit. We have come as a communication of our desperation for more, for more, for more, more of your wisdom, more of your. Power, more of your grace, more of knowledge, more. Of your transforming grace. Help us tonight, Spirit of the Living God. We yield ourselves to your influence, and we pray that you walk wonders in our midst night. In the name of Jesus, a man and Amen, God bless you. Please be seated. It's good to see everyone again. Allelujah, Praise the Lord. I'd like you to please do me a favor by truly appreciating all precious leaders in this house. Give them a big, big God bless you. Minister's text of departments. Thank you, Thank you so much. Allelujah. It's amazing. You see the proof of impact. It's not just the results that are produced from your life. The proof of impact are the results that are produced from your ideologies. Even if it is not you. Are we together now? Yes? I have always thought that a good leader it's not a leader because he is exceptional as a person. The proof of leadership is the ability to reproduce yourself as much as possible, and that there'll be a continuity that does not necessarily depend on you. That's leadership. So I thank God for these great people. I sincerely appreciate them. Tonight is one of those teachings that will leave you thinking about your destiny passionately. Tonight is one of those teachings that the Lord will breathe upon that will give us a cause to think there are not many teachings like this, but every once in a while, God brings truths that help our growth, that help us to relate with the times and give us wisdom. Allelujah. It was a revelation that God gave me, and I look forward to having the release. I didn't even know that this would be the first platform I'll be sharing it, and I'm very happy about it, and. I know that the Lord is going to bless us in the name of Jesus, Allelujah. I am a student of the School of the Spirit, and I'm a student of scripture and scattered across scripture and mysteries and principles that not only help our revealing Jesus, but it also helps in the glorification of the saints. Jesus himself said, hearing is my Father glorified John fifteen and verse eight. He says, when ye bear much. Food, so the Father is glorified to the degree to which the Saints excel. It's not enough that Jesus be glorified alone. He also wants the saints to excel a way together. So I wanted to fully pay attention reaching tonight on a very deep mystery. This mystery will help you to remain relevant. Is a mystery in the spirit that helps people to remain relevant, regardless seasons, regardless times. Are we together, Yes, there is no guarantee that because you started well, you will finish well. There is no guarantee that. That is why God calls himself Alpha and then Omega. He does not only start, he remains. And the Bible says, better is the end of a thing than the beginning there of Allelujah. So I'm teaching tonight on times and seasons. It's a very deep revelation that will impact wisdom upon our lives. You may argue with opinions, but you cannot argue with results. Results are powerful. There are people today who do not believe in the lordship of Jesus. Someday the results that will stand before them, the reality of heaven and Hell, will compel them. I'm convinced that everybody in Hell today intends to believe. But the time allotted for them to believe and accept the substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus they exhausted that time, and even though now they still have the fits to believe, the timing does not allow it again. Every time is not convenient for every result. Realities in this kingdom are dependent and they are also dependent on seasons. In agriculture, we learn that at least for Nigeria, other parts of Africa and the West, they have at least four seasons. But it's not the case for us. We just have two seasons, the rainy season and the dry season. Away together. You can plant every time, but there are seasons when even the environment supports you. For instance, if you plant. During the dry season, you will have to take responsibility for providing water. You will have to outsource an intelligence and laboriously do what the rain would have done for you free of churche away together. But when you saw during the rainy season, you have an advantage of the environmental condition in favoring that agricultural pursuit. And so every time is not convenient for everything. And if we do not understand the mystery behind times and seasons, you will find out that at the end of your life you did not do much, both for the kingdom, for yourself, for family. And so on and so forth. The School of Ministry has been running now for I think this should be the eighth session, and almost all the students unanimously agree that one of their best in terms of the courses that we teach, is called personal transformation. And not because of all. Of it, but there are a few topics there that just challenge you to think about your life. And I believe that value every information that gives you a reason to understand life, not just God alone. There is Jesus, the way, the me Pthodologists. Of the Kingdom. You have to understand this. Allelujah. Genesis chapter forty one contains a very very interesting story, and in that story is a mystery. The mystery holds the key to transgenerational relevance. Stories in scripture were not just. Written for nothing. It's a long reading. Be patient. Stories in scripture were not just for the information, regardless the actors. There was something that was hidden in those stories. And the assignment of the spirit of Revelation is to open your eyes so that you will see beyond the stories, beyond the parables. You understand the mysteries. Are we together? Now? If you read a Bible story and you you do not get the mystery behind it, you have not benefited from that story. If the only thing you know is there was a man called Abraham, for instance, a woman called Sarah. They were childless for a long time, then Isaac came, etc. That has not blessed you. That is just a historic information. But when the spirit of revelation comes, it takes you beyond history, It takes you beyond archaeology. It opens up to you something in that story that is consistent with the character of God, and it reveals it hams over to you a key that helps your excelling in life. Until you find a kingdom key in a story, you have not benefited from it as far as the study of scripture is concerned. So Genesis chapter forty one, the Bible talks about apologies for the the. Way the projection is looking. But the Bible talks about. A young man who for various reasons found himself in the prison, and then he was now about to be lifted. And then the Bible says in forty one, please give it to us a long reading. The Bible says, and it came to pass at the end of two full years that pharaoh dreamed. So it starts with a dream. The pharaoh was the king, he was the supreme ruler over Egypt. Egypt was a very strange place. It was a place of abundance. He was a place of plenty. It was the dense superpower of the whole world. Egyptians were vicious people. They were intelligent in terms of science and scientology. There were agriculturists, They were warriors. You didn't stand close to an Egyptian those days. They had all kinds of mysteries. They had God who would reveal secrets to them. They were fierce people. Allelujah. So the Bible says, one night the king goes to bed, and he had a dream. Please follow me. Carefully, and behold in that dream he stood by a river. Next verse verse two. Now and behold came out of the river seven weld favored. Can you give us any version just for explanation? These were cattle calf any version at all that gives us a clear explanation. And then the Bible says that, okay, I hope Amplified would not waste that time. Okay, well, favored cows slick and handsome. See what amplified does and fat just give us an IV or something. I mean, Amplified now it's calling a cow handsome, all right. So when we're done, then we go back to KJV, and that went out of the river seven cows. Watch this, Now the king is dreaming. Isn't it amazing how the Holy Spirit is so intentional about the church understanding this? It goes into a king's dream to tell us what is happening. So the king is having a dream. Seven cows slick fat, and the Bible says they grazed. Among the reeds the grass. Now after them, seven other cows, ugly and gaunt, came out of the nile and stood beside those on the river bank. And then this is the first mystery. And the cows that were ugly and gount et up the seven slip fat cows. Then Pharaoh woke up. So that's dream number one. He goes to bed and is standing by the nile, and he sees seven fat cows. Then after that he sees seven limb cows. Are we together? And according to his dream, the seven limb cows at the fat ones, and KJV tells you they didn't increase in size, they remained like that. Are we together? Verse five. He fell asleep again and had a second dream. Seven heads of grain, healthy and good were growing on his single stalk. Verse six after them, seven other heads of grain sprouted thin and scorched by the east wind. Then another mystery, the thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy full heads. Then Pharaoh woke up and it had been a dream. Verse eight. Help us please. Verse eight. The Bible says that Pharaoh was troubled. When you read KJV in the morning. His mind was troubled, so he sent for all the magicians and the wise men of Egypt. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but no man could interpret them for him. You see, Pharaoh was a very intelligent man. He really deserves to be king. Other people wake up and say, what a wonderful dream. Foolish cows thing ones are eating you and you are just keeping quiet. He said of you to use the advantage of size and fight back. But Pharaoh said, no, kings, don't dream for nothing. There is something in this dream, even though I do not understand. It holds the key, perhaps to the salvation of my kingdom. And he began to probe. He called the wise men, and then the chief cop Gehara said to Pharaoh, today I'm reminded of my shortcomings. Ten. Pharaoh was once angry with his servants and imprisoned me and the chief baker in the house of the Captain of the God. Each of us had a dream the same night, and each dream had a meaning of its own. The Bible says, now a young Hebrew was there with us, a servant of the Captain of the God. We told him our dreams, and he interpreted them for us, giving each man the interpretation of his dream. Be patient, please, And things turned out exactly as he interpreted them to us. He was restored. I was restored to my position, and the other man was hanged. Four team. So Pharaoh sent for. Joseph, and he was quickly brought from his stngeon. When he had shaved and changed his clothes, he came before Pharaoh. Pharaoh said to Joseph, I had a dream, and no man can interpret it. But I have heard it is said of you that when you hear dream, you can interpret it. I cannot do it, Joseph replied to Pharaoh. But God will give Pharaoh the answer he desires. Here goes the dream again, in case you didn't read the first one. In my dream, I was standing on the bank of the Nile, went out of the river. There came up seven cows, fat and slick, grazing in among the reeds. Uh huh. And after them seven other lean cows. You know they came, He says, I. Had never seen. Such ugly cows in the land of Egypt. Now, the dream I'm saying his own thing, the last one. It was the spirit of revelation speaking. Now, the dreamer is giving us the full weight of what he saw. That he did not see cows that lean, that ugly and vicious. The lean, ugly cows ate up the seven fat cows that came off first. But even after they ate them, look up, no one could tell that they had done so. That means we must examine those cows. A cow that does not eat just grass, it's another cow, and does not increase in size. Is that an ordinary cow? Are we together? No one could tell they had done so. They looked just as ugly as before. Then I woke up twenty two. In my dream, I also saw seven heads of grain, full and good, growing on a single stalk. After them, seven other heads sprouted, withered and tin and scorched by the east wind. The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven heads. I told this to the magicians, but none could explain it to me. Wow. Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, listen carefully. Now, the dreams of Pharaoh are one and the same. Pharaoh, you saw the same thing. The realm of the spirit was repeating a mystery for you to get that. It used different actors and scenarios, but the dream is the same. He says, God does revealed to Pharaoh what he is about to do. Next verse, then Pharaoh said, Joseph said to Pharaoh, the dreams of Pharaoh. Okay, twenty six. Now let's go to twenty six place. The seven good cows have nothing to do with animals. They're talking of seasons. That's the first revelation. Don't let the cows confuse you. He said, ah, ah, it's not about animals. It's about reasons. Are we together? The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good heads of grain are also seven years. So the spirit of revelation was coming to Pharaoh. To teach him something about seasons, that this is not about animals. Immediately, some of you know that your interpretation of many dreams are being wrong. Just from this accurate revelation, you can see that this is a deliverance for you. Because usually if you get up, your meaning will be around the objects of the dream. But sometimes the meaning has nothing to do with the objects of the dream. In this case, that both the cows and the grain are the same thing time. It is once. Please go back to the twenty six. It says it is one and the same dream twenty seven. The seven lean ugly cows that came up afterwards are seven seasons. So are the workless heads of grains caught by the east wind. There are seven years of famine. It is just as I said to Pharaoh. God has shown Pharaoh what he's about to do. Twenty nine. Seven years of great abundance, take note, are coming throughout the land of Egypt. But seven years of famine will follow them. Then all the abundance in Egypt will be forgotten, and the famine will ravage the land. The abundance in the land will not be remembered because the famine that follows it will be so severe. The reason the dream was given to Pharaoh in two forms is that the matter has been family decided. Is an ordinance, and God will do it soon. Keep that scripture there, look or please, this is a king who goes to bed and comes up with a dream. Then a young Hebrew boy is invited to his palace and he says, oh, King, this dream has nothing to do with cows, nothing. To do with plans. This is a mystery in the kingdom that it talks about years that. The way the earth works, Please look up. The way God. Designed this system to work is that there will always always be night after day. Then there will be day after night, then there will be night again after day. Are we together? As far as we know, in the last six thousand years plus, no activity on earth has sustained the power to break that law indefinitely. A few times it was manipulated, but that law was still in place. And it says, oh King, even though you are a king of a great country. Understand this mystery so that your relevance will remain. If you do not understand it, they will come. Nobody will remember that there was one pharaoh seated on the throne. Look or please, I want to share with you a very deep mystery. If you do not understand this, no matter what your achievements are today, no matter what hides your right to in life, if you cannot decipher the dream of Pharaoh, you will. Not last in this kingdom. The Bible tells us that the. Memory of the justice blessed. It's not just the mind thinking the memory. That there is something about the just and God's ability to preserve his good hand and his working upon your lives. Our life and history is full of people who did not pay attention to this dream. And whether or not you understand the dream, it does not stop what will happen from happening. Listen to me, there will always be seven years of plenty, and that after seven years of plenty, what followed was seven. Years of famine. And that the years of famine does not leave the years of plenty alone. That something in your future can pursue something in your yesterday and eat it top goodness, Why will my future or not face his front and turn to the past and want to eat off your achievements, want to eat off. Your the mighty things that you have done. Businessmen have broken this law, and so after building empires for you years, they do not know how to last. And at the end of their life you see them victims. Of the seven years of famine. It's swallows of everything. Some of them are our parents. You opened your civies and your surprise. You once went abroad, Yes, sir, you once shook hands with the then military head of said, Yes, sir, you once studied in Harvard. Yes, well are those achievements the seven years of famine? Please hear what I teach you tonight. Let me give you the wisdom that will cost you to last. There are sportsmen in this country who are still alive. There there was a time your name was synonymous to honor and break through. But they did not disign the mystery in Pharaoh's dream. And it is painful in your lifetime to watch the years of famine come and eat up the years of your abundance. The Bible says Pharaohs said, no, I won't keep quiet. There is something about this dream that, if I don't pay attention to understand, the end of my life may become a memorial that will not be desired. Notice what the Bible says that the seven years of famine are so vicious No matter the size of the. Cow, they can eat it up. My God, So when I look at your life, all I see seven lime cows left? Where are the fat ones? Where at the achievements? Where are the mighty things you did? In ministry, we're at the exploits in business. What certainly happened. Africa did not know this. So when we were celebrating gold and jewelries and running around, we did not know. The dream of Pharaoh was knocking that. If you do not know this today you look at Africa and you will almost not remember that gold was taken out of here, that all kinds of things were taken out of here. Mu sixtions that did not know what to do with their seven years of plenty. If you mentioned that name, there were names in ministry, in music. I'm not trying to be sarcastic. If you mentioned them, they were seen none moans to honor, but they did not know what to do with seven years of plenty. And right now those vicious cows. He said, Pharaoh, what you have seen will surely happen. This is why God showed you. I went together. Historically in this nation. Growing up, we were told that there were several platforms and denominations that did great things for God, sometimes before we were born, and maybe at in fancy. But the same dream came. Listen, this dream will look for every church, This dream will look for every celebrity. This dream will look for every human being. You don't have to pray, you don't have to be righteous, you don't have to be a sinner. You just have to be on it. Once you are on it, I guarantee you the dream of Pharaoh is coming. What is it about it? Dream that God will have to repeat it twice? Pharaoh? Wake up, He goes back to bed. He has the same dream again. Joseph said, what you have seen will surely come to pass. That the cows talk of times and seasons Ecclesias since chapter three. And verse one. Thank you all, my father. Forgiving Nazio son. And leaveving your seit your workome Nesis. Thank you, my friend, forgiving nurse your time. And leadving your sality. Your work on. Listen to everything is that in your bible, to how many things, to everything, to your desire, to your relevance, to. Your name, to your impact, to everything. There is a season now when you read the Bible, don't read just to look for a message. To preach to everything. There is a season, and it's time to every. Purpose on that heaven above heaven, we don't know what happens there, but under heaven to everything that means if you do not understand times and seasons, look or please. Ladies and gentlemen. You may be well meaning, you may be well intentioned, but you will live the rest of your life. In pain and regret. There are so many people moving around life and saying life is not fair, this is not fair. I used to be a sincere man of God. I serve God with all my life. Now look at is this a lot of a Christian? They say? There are many people who say I did everything and you why should life treat me this way? My brother, my sixiety is not unique to you. It is a mystery that you have not been taught. And tonight God is opening you that it is not something unique that just looks for you. It's looking for every man. Thank you all my Father forgiving nas, your son, leaveving your. Sority, your work. So seven years seven does not always. Mean seven seven, just just a prophetic representation. The lesson is that there is a load that works upon this earth, that there will always be an interplay in every man's life of seven years of abundance and seven years of famine. In ministry, it will happen in business, it will happen in marriage, in your family, it will happen no matter how godly or how ungodly you are. There is no amount of prayer and fasting that will stop these seasons from happening. These are laws. Right now is dark. It is a stupid thing to stand and be praying against darkness for no cost. Rather, you look for torchlight, and you don't buy that torchlight necessarily in the night, you buy during the day. There was the mistake of the five virgins. They were all virgins, but the foolishness or wisdom was the issue. And the Bible says some carried extra oil. Why extra because they knew that there's something about seasons. And the Bible says when the bridegroom delayed those who were innocent, all of them started things. Really, it was time that revealed who was wise. Time is a revealer. It may not create changes, but time reveals. Time reveals wisdom, and time reveals foolishness. Are we blessed in the parable of the virgins? It was never lack of. Money, because the foolish ones still had money to buy more. It was pure carelessness. They didn't think the bridegroom would delay that long because they said, go to them that cell, and the Bible says they went and they bought. When they returned, the door was closed. When you read about Noah, there was a time Noah said, rain is coming. Is this in your Bible? I'm showing you this laws walking Noah. For one hundred and twenty years he kept shouting with his wife, his sons and their wives, rain is coming. I have built an act that is big enough made of gopher. Would three stories come. Rain will come. When that rain come, it will not look like there was anything on earth. It would not look like any plant, any shrub was ever planted on earth. And yet the people said, don't worry, no why you're a noisemaker. You are a stupid noisemaker. When the time came and seasons were about to change, who closed the door? Radio Bible It was not a demon, God himself closed the door. And when the rain started, the Bible says the heavens gave its own rain, and the earth gave it all rain. If you were in the middle of two of them, you will be in trouble. And it crushed those people. The whole earth was swept in rain. There was no single green leaf that survived it. Took a dog to keep checking, checking whether there was a place of refuge. It kept returning until finally it found a place of refuge. Noah was warning and saying, it will not always be like this, dear people on earth. Now you have the chance. The sun is still shining, no matter how slow you are. Isn't it amazing that provided the animals were moving, God was patient. The snail will not run as fast as the cheetah, but at least they were moving, and God respected their honor to those seasons and waited till they entered the. Ac Are we together? When that dog closed, it closed, sincerely. Once upon a time Lazarus and the rich man. The rich man had an opportunity to do certain things. He misused his opportunity, and you found himself in a place where he said, please, Lazarus, can you deep from Father Abraham's bosom a tap of water and let me quench my thirst? And he said, no, seasons, seasons. Listen to what I'm telling you. Every time is not convenient for everything. If you do not descend seasons, there are times you will have every opportunity, but that door may. Never be there again. Now listen carefully, in every man's life. These two seasons will continue to alternate themselves for as long as you live on earth. You may not be able to stop the seasons, but or we go in there shortly. The mystery to handle those seasons and rain through them was the interpretation of Joseph's dream. Joseph's dream was not a solution to Pharaoh alone. Joseph's dream was the spirit of Revelation speaking to a young Hebrew boy to the inhabitants of the earth that regardless seasons, you are going to be able to stand. I will be still and know you are the. I will be still and know you. I wish you can't think for me. When the oceans run. And time roam, I will solve you over father, you working over the snorts. So I will bee and know, Oh God, I will be seen. Many couples do not know that these season's come in marriage too, and so they are happy and join themselves. Husband is happy with wife. This, gentleman, this is my dear people who came and testified. You saw how he didn't want his wife to fold up passion. Except this is not bad news. Don't miscared, ladies and gentlemen. But that there are seasons. Every time you see a fat cow, let it remind you that there is a lean one. Also. The gentleman said, he got an a lot. That's a fat cow. The footballer was signed to a club side that was paying him millions. He forgot. His age was growing, growing into the season of lin cows. He forgot. Oh, Esther, do not forget that varsity gave way for you to be there. If you do what Varsity did, you will shift to. But if you do what Esther did, you will still remain. I am amazed at people's lack of discernment during the first part of Pharaoh's dream. Let me tell you the season of abundance. Write this down, the seven years of plenty. Write it please. The seven years of plenty represents. Seasons of ease, seasons of opportunity, seasons of access, opportunity. The key word is opportunity. Seven years. Of abundance represents seasons of opportunity that, according to the law of time and chance, every body on the face of the earth, according to the goodness of God, must encounter seasons in your life where things work well. Listen to me carefully. It is more than praying for things to work well. The character of God necessitates that sometime in your life there will be a manifestation of His benevolence, his good hand. Seven years of plenty represents seasons and moments of ease, represents moments of opportunity. What opportunity? An opportunity to know God, an opportunity to build relationships, an opportunity to understand you siment, an opportunity to be helped. Those are seasons of plenty. Some of you. God saved that a plateau of gold. Someone went out of the way, paid your transport fare, dragged you to church, and showed that you had the message followed upon you. Those are seasons of plenty. I assure you to not always. Be like that. There are some of you, whether you give or not, there is a harvest coming from the sacrifice of your parents. Yes, listen to me. The deception of many young people. So when we are teaching on the principles that bring these things, you say, nonsense, I've just gotten a lot before service one hundred thousand as a student. What is this guy talking about? You've forgotten that for every fat cow there is a leaning one coming. All of us more than at twenty six years. You got a job with CIBN. You got a job as a diplomatic person, receiving three hundred thousand. Let me tell you this, The seasons of. Abundance have a side effect. They can give you a short term memory. It erodes your ability to think far. You see, when you are in the season of plenty, you can never imagine scarcity. I'm not talking of finances. Who would have imagined that there will come where the gathering. Of the saints who have to be suspended for a while. You could drop on a. Bike and say, I don't like I thought. They'll pray for the sick, bro see you later. And the spirit of God is saying, use this time now, now that you have brethren to pray with you. If you pray and you are lazy, you see someone's zeal. That zeal will cast out that spirit of laziness. To get back to prayer. While God was saying, pray that prayer now, please don't feel bad. You didn't know that your father was on his way transitting the breadwin of your family. When the Holy ghost was telling you, now that you have your opportunity, there is a prayer department. There is Corinonia build capacity. You didn't know that you were just two years left to be the breadwiner of your family. Whether pray much oddly, others will be sleeping, and the holy ghost who say wake up. It would not always be like this, the seasons of opportunity. Everybody is inviting you, placing a demand on your grace. You're a music artist. There are all kinds of invitations. You're a man of God, Apposton Joshua Selman. There are all kinds of invitations, and you are carried away by the deception and the fame that it will always be like that. Remember, Pharaoh's dream. Business is happening. Every One who would have known that one day will get will no longer be the wealthiest person. Did you know how much it was worth that time? Did you know how much Jeff Vesos was. Worth that time? Whenever you see the cows, I assure you, who would have known that one day the name Archbishop Benson is the rosa would be of blessed memory. If you were alive during his time and saw a man who went around the ed fifty three times, a man who would keep governments down, would you ever imagine that one day somebody would stand up to threaten the gospel. So when that opportunity was happening, the church would have established themselves. Many of our parents. There were times where land was five hundred mirah, is that true? They would even allow you to start building. I said, no, no, no, the edd there's a scholarship that used to home and the dream of Joseph kept coming, kept coming and said, be careful, a time will come. This five hundred nar our land will be fifty million. And many made that mistake. They are denominations that made that mistake. There are families that made that mistake. There were times when the missionaries were allowing. People to go to school free. They came to some of our. Loved ones and said, even if you don't go, send some of your children say no, no, no, don't worry. I'm not sure school will be so expensive like this times and seasons. Can I tell you this. The pain of many people at the latter point in their life is because they are met with a vicious circle of change in their lives. They don't know what to do with. Some say it's an attack. Some say this is unfair, but it is the reality of the dream of Joseph. So God is telling you, my dear, build capacity in prayer right now, Oh God, just send the man first, and God and forget about the man. Pray. I'm not a prophet of doom, but you didn't know it would take you five years before your first child. Look come and after year one year two said Lord, where are you? And he says, you just pray. And you found out that your prayer bank was empty because you replace prayer with cosmetics. Now I'm not a don't feel, but use your cosmetic provider. Doesn't interrupt your prayer life. You're not building capacity. You are praying now, fasting into rems of the anointing. And God is saying, understand Warfare said no, no, no, what I need is just grace. I know that with power will come wealth. Be careful. Demons are real, they're not looking for everybody. Build capacity. God may recommend the message of a man of all these things. I'm not interested. Suddenly you step into an anointing that you know last ninety days. You get that anointing, you wake up with vicious marks on your body for status. You're preaching a program you are happy delivering everybody, and then your bag doesn't take you home, and then things start happen in. Your life, and said, Lord, am I not serving you? Listen to me. It will not equally be easy all the time. The deception. That comes with the years of plenty is complacency. The deception that comes with seasons of plenty is complacency. Living for the now, living for the now. There are many people who never believe they knew they were tied about. They just welt one day, one day, and before you know it, retirement came. No house, no savings, no nothing. Some of you now remember when you were in secondary school. This is you today looking for a job. When you saw those many years ago, ten years, five years, you were just there. No, no, no, I'm just in demonstration. I'm just in a model learning or one of these schools. Pray you say, now I'm still a child. My uncle is fraid and the Holy Gooes is a build capacity. Now you are in a position where you will have to trust God. Seven years of plenty will always be followed by seven years of scarcity. It is a law. It has nothing to do with being good or bad. Complacency it's a mistake that people make during seven years of plenty. Some of you had people in your life, yes a goo. There was no request that you would open your mouth. And say, and they were not granted. Is that true? Somewhere? Uncles? Some were people who. Just love you, like the gentleman or was it the lady who was sharing you anything he says, someone just sends him man as that. And most people do not know what to do with those seasons. You had an uncle who was walking safe, for instance in NMPC, and God made that man to love you. What do I do for you? And say, Uncle, honestly, there's one style now that is in town. I don't know if you can just give me any grantcy to you? Say what else do I do for you? And the Holy Spirit is saying, look, don't be quiet. Your family does not have a land. They can drive them out of the house. Why don't you tell them? I say, Uncle, I don't want clothes. I can't even work for you. I don't want my father to be old without the land. And the Holy God shows you in a dream you stand up and Cassidy. Away seven years of plenty. Then all of a sudden you will find out God forbid but tragedy strikes, and every body who says support system for you is gone. And then you begin to complain and say, God. It is not fair. Remember Pharaoh's dream. There are men and women of God all around the world today. Once upon a time their names were household names. You couldn't have a convention without those people. That convention is not there. But today. You barely can't even know they were alive. I went to preach somewhere and I saw someone. I used to know that person, or know about that person, and I was shocked and surprised when I saw that person in the congregation. It made me to think about my own life. It was a shadow. I've had the privilege to travel and to meet. A few people who were household names in different areas, and sometimes you look at them and you cannot imagine. Have you seen politicians like that? When they won election, they didn't know what to do with the seven years of plenty. They were just sitting. An elder statesman said, we wanted to become counselor. We wanted to be They don't even know how much the firm costs. They just affel it. They became counselors, and they enjoyed themselves until they lost the next election and they reduced back to nothing. My brothers and my sisters lay hands on your head in one minute, and I like you to pray and say, Lord, open my eyes for the sake of my children, for the sake of my family. Don't let the devil lie to you that this message is not for you. Saw you. For as long as you are alive on this head, one day you will need this message. Please pray. Those following online, I like you to pray, Lord, give me wisdom. Sheila Bacato Brande gaiters m Protasilasala Brande Gabarusia, alle Lujah, in the name of Jesus, write this down. Seven years of famine represent seasons of constrain, seasons of inconvenience, seasons of scarcity. Seven years of famine represent seasons or moments of constraint, moments of inconvenience, moments of scarcity for various reasons. It can be because of age age. No matter how annoyingted you are, no matter what revelation you catch about long life, the reality is, for as long as you are carrying this mortal body, until immortality swallows. Up this mortality, you will not always have that energy. No, you can reduce your age, reduce the times steps, lashing it into two. For as long as you're on it, a day will come. You will come to that reality. You want to jump the stairs like before with energy and find out that, Wow, what is this strange breath that I'm taking? I used to run marathon? When when? So people like Pelle and people like all these athletes who sit in the stadium and watch there for myself and remember that free kick and remember bout what they did. Unfortunately seasons are gone. Sports first would be invited with prestige to the same stadium that they once went with honor, and now they would sit down what a former presidents once the only time they were the voice of their territories. Everything they said became law. And now you see them moving, some sick, some not totally home, and they sit down and watch. Oh, there is a lesson for us to learn today, young beautiful lady, look at the person who give better you. And learn wisdom. Once upon a time, Mama was fine like you two I went together. Now listen carefully, young men, that John Parouna would not sit down in one place and deal with their destiny. Look at the man that gave back to you. He was more agile than you. He became serious at a street. Yet he's still trying to catch. Up till today. And you you got Bonny Jenna, a staty that means you need grace, messy, speed, restoration, all these forces of art of the spirit to back you up. Once upon a time, our parents used to tell us that you could go to buy something outside if the owner were not there, you can pick the thing and drop the money there and they'll come and find it there. It was British friend Ado that sang a song is said. Things are not the way they used to be the. Reality of time. Now you leave your khaki. Outside and go to with yourself quickly have come up. Yes and go. One time I think they parked my car somewhere. It was called a pantaker in you know that place. I was shocked that we came out and this thing you used to tie, you know, to to yes, the tire and. I how they remove them. This is the world we live in now. Someone can say God bless you, and your one life is missing, your money. Is missing, your ATM is missing. You had a chance where everybody around your life. Then was a trusted person. You didn't utilize that time. Everybody who was your roommate was a prayer warrior. You didn't utilize that chance. Now everybody in your office hates you, and you have to live there for a very long time. Seven years of plenty will always follow seven years of famine due to age, due to increase, increased responsibilities. Look or please. There are times that God will tell you, as a man, build capacity and. Pray, Ah, how many children do you want to have? Five children? God says, I know what five children look like. I'm the creator of the ends of the earth. Big deep. Now you refuse right now, you just want to pray and saying Jesus' name. Here comes your child. It's like a dream. You almost want to deny the child, and yet he looks like you. The child wants to play with his father, but you you want to play with your make And God will say, it's not an excuse. Face that child. You had a time when there was no child to disrapt you. You could pray for eight hours. You had no job, you had no house, you had no reputation. You could go on back car. Nobody will know. But now that's what become a big man. Whatever you couldn't do yesterday will not be easy now again. Our society is full of regrets of all kinds. Many elderly people go to their graves in pain. There are many books written as a warning two generations coming to say, don't make the mistake I made. I had opportunities. Some people, some of our loved ones, were raised by missionaries. They were the only ones who were born again at their time, and yet they still failed. How many people traveled abroad when Nigeria passport was really something to talk about, They went abroad and returned like criminals after ten years, fifteen years, twenty years. You still see some of them in the village and they will show you pictures and you are like, what happened? You shook hands with this person? Is that not angle? They say, yes, now then it was not him. Where were you? What happened? How many people are angry today watching people on TV. I used to know him. We were classmates. Ah, we wrote what they're called now jam together. We wrote this. And they ask questions they cannot answer because seasons came and they didn't know what to do with seasons. We're establishing Pharaoh's dream. Now the key to sustained impact and relevance. Write it down, the key. To sustain impact and relevance. Since it is true that seasons change and that things by themselves will never be the way they always are, we must know what to do. There is a key, and that key is in the advice of Joseph. Let's continue from where we left off Genesis forty one. Please hurry up, we still have a lot to do. Show us thesi pers. Will you lead us along Ea turn highway, we want to fall the way. Stuff cheeseus we want to. And your. Shousing sh Will you lead us alone it turn. Highway we want to far. The foodsteps of cheeseus we. Want to and your. And now. Now listen carefully. We've analyzed the problem. The spirit speaketh expressly to the church now through a young Hebrew. Boy, Joseph, showing us what to do. Let Pharaoh look for it discerning and a is man, and put him in charge of the land of Egypt. Workfall. Let Pharaoh appoint commissioners over the land. And Pharaoh take a fifth of the harvest twenty percent. A fifth part of the harvest during the seven years of abundance. Ahah, they should collect all the food of these good years that are coming and store up the grain under the authority of Pharaoh, to be kept in the cities for food thirty six. This food should be held in reserve for the country to be used. To be used. You will eat the food, but not now keep it. A day will come that food will. Be relevant, he says, to be used during the seven years of famine that will come upon Egypt, so that the country may not be ruined. And I can't stop the famine, but there is a technology to make sure that even in famine, I can still eat as though there were no famine. Is that good news for someone that there is still a way you can manipulate your way through seasons and you will remain transgenerationally relevant. Things will come and go, events will come and go, but at the end of it, you are still standing. The mystery is Joseph's advice thirty seven. The plan seem good to Pharaoh and to all his officials. Uh huh, So Pharaoh asks them, can we find anyone like this man? That means the men who work the start ascas is a question? Can we find these people in coinnonia, who can manage the seasons of plenty? Can God find this kind of man in you, in whom there is the spirit of God. Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, since God has made this known to you, there is no one so discerning and wise as you. Now the Bible tells us that he became, you know, he became in charge of all of those things. He now married, you know, PARTI Pherah, and so on and so forth. But here's the point. We're going back there later. On The point is this. Joseph gave an advice. Look or please, he said, three time you have that harvest, there is a part of that harvest that has an ability to still be alive in the moments of famine. Take part of your fame, take part of your energy, take part of your access, take part of your honor the days when the honor is there. He says, save and invest is a business language, But tonight it has nothing to do with business. That you can save part of every good thing God gives you, and there is a way you can. Invest it that it will go to your days of plenty and. Stand there and the days of famine, that when famine comes, you will now eat out of that time. Let's go to verse forty Let's. Go to forty seven forty one, verse forty seven. Now watch this. It says, during the seven years of abundance, the land produced plentifully. Aha. Joseph collected the food produced in those seven years of abundance in. Egypt and start it in the cities. Watch this. In each city he puts the food grown in the field surrounding it. Forty nine. Joseph's thought of huge quantities of grain like the sand of the sea. Wise man, it was so much that he's top chipping records because it was beyond measure. He didn't focus on calculating all the fame and the accolades. How many people fell on that there anointing? How many on a radium did I get? At the point he said, look, some of these records. Can be dangerous. Let me focus on storing so much because days are coming. Records are good, but they can destroy you. Who am I better than? Who did I preach more than last week? There were five preachers? But who are people saying was better? Those are records that somehow there is a healthy part of it to help you. But there is a part of it that may it may be destroy You give us that scripture again. It says before the years of famine came. Oh no, if you know if ram and all of that, okay, Joseph stored up huge quantities of brain like the sound of the sea was so much that he stopped keeping records of it because it was beyond measure. Keep this scripture. Let me advise you be cheerful. Make sure you do not party yourself too much and too long after the giant strides. It is good to encourage yourself. It is good to encourage those you leave. It is good to encourage those who mentor. But beware of prolonged celebration of success. It can be dangerous. It can switch you to the other side of the pendulum and become the reason for failure. When Jesus rose from the dead, you will imagine that you would go to forty fust I mean to what's his name now, Herold and all those people, and say, where are those stupid people that thought I won't come back to life. No, when he came back to life straight after doing a few things, he went straight to the disciples who were hiding in the upper room and began to teach them for the next forty days. He didn't have time to waste. No, no, no, no, no, I've been enthrowned. No problem. The creation will celebrate me later. Is this not how champions leave as soon as they win one Olympics while the whole world is using their face to market products and make money. They arrest a bit and their coach is a stand up, stand up coach. I just want let's begin to prepare for the years that will come, because there is a new There is a new competitor that was now born. Until then you are getting old, but there is a young boy. Isn't it amazing? Have you seen just from the field of sports. Notice all those whould defeat champions. They are ordinary people who come with zeal And. While they are praying they are champions, stand and said, no, there can be. Anybody more than me. And suddenly you will see a. Teenager just arise and do something that will surprise them. Please give us that scripture. We're working scripture now fifty okay, well, fifty one, fifty two days about the sons of Joseph. Let's go to fifty three. We're reading to verse fifty seven. It says the seven years of abundance. In Egypt came to one end. Live that scripture there, everybody, look at it. There's something about your life that is written there. Come to an end does not mean your relevance has come to an end. There are seasons. Jesus said, I most work the works of him who sent me. Even Jesus, when you walked upon the ad, he had that timing an urgency to his life. While it is day for the night coming when no man can walk again, the seven years of abundance. Look at me, dear preacher. It will not always be like that, that the whole world will keep giving you invitations every day, keep coming. It's not because you are backsliding. It's because the will always be another generation. You're not the only one God anointed. There are people who are rising too. Or Elijah, do not forget that there are other profits. Under Obadia's cost study, they will also arise. Or businessman, you may be great, but one time there is a Zuoka bag on his way coming, there is a Google on his way coming. Whoever knew that you would have billonnaires under Tatty today it was something not to even think about. Whoever knew that technology would take young people to that point where young boys today media is almost the new government. They can shot a precedent. Did you ever think like. That that the owner of a media house can have the power to say, I use my influence on my platform, and I shot your voice. The seven years of influence, the seven years of relevance, came to an end. Next verse. Fifty four, let's work first place, media help us, And. The seven years of farming began. Just as Joseph had said, there was famine in all the other lands, hallelujah, but in Joshua Salman's life. But in Cononia there was food. So the presence of food does not mean famine is not still on. It's just that something was done bar theater, so I can do something about these seasons. The seven years of farming began. Then the lockdown began, and there was no charge for five months. Then the lockdown began, and your business did not have patronage. The lockdown was not your fault, but it still happened. I told you, it's a law. Then all of a suddenly, your husband began to have pressure from his place of work because the promotion that was due. To him would not be given, and. In reaction to that, he started bringing that attitude back home. Woman of God, what did you stare for the days of famine? Suddenly, on account of your integrity, they relieved you from the job just when your last twins were born. Now you're watching two children plus two orders that you have, and you're wondering, what do I do? I don't have money? Was money the only thing you saved? Why didn't you save relationships? Why didn't you stare connections? Why why didn't you stop prayer? Why didn't you start the deposit of faivor? What happened to these qualities? Whoever told you grains are the only things that can be invested? Are we together? It says there was farming in the land, but in Egypt there was food. When all Egypt go back to fifty five, let's go there. When all Egypt began to feel the farming, the people cried onto Pharaoh for food. Then Pharaoh told all the Egyptians go and meet the man that knows what to do, Meet the man that took advantage of my dream. So when there is farming, there are people they look for. And if you are one of those people, It is your key to remain relevant. Not every When there is rain, they will always look for Noah. When there is hunger, they will always look for Elijah. When there is farming, they will always look for Joseph. You remain relevant by becoming that man that people and come to. When there is famine, he says, go and meet them that sell. There are people who have it. They cried on to Pharaoh, and Pharaoh said, go and meet Joseph and do what he tells you to do. Two more versus. When the famine had spread over all the country, Joseph opened the storehouses. Notice he never gave them free. I like him because in terms of famine, you don't get free. There is a price for those who did not obey Pharaoh's dream. Hey, look up, you can be listening to free message. Now you didn't pay for anything. Yours is Joseph. Come and sit down, or shascleaned the chair, worshiped him, sings for you. You cough and someone is there to say sorry. Don't worry to not always be like that there ones. Receive it and consume it with all your heart, because when that time comes, when the store house is open, I promise you it will not be free again. They will come. You will listen to the same message you ignored. While there is a fight going on somewhere. They will come. You will listen to that message, but it will not be under this kind of convenience again. Once upon a. Time areas of palace, time and the rest. These were places where mighty things happen. But today you want to call upon the name of Jesus on those soils. It may be at the expense of your life. They will come. You will have to pay for the food that is now free. You will pay with your time. You will pay with your energy. Listen to me. When God is telling you understand the dynamics of healing and health, you may say what for? Pay attention to it, so that if the devil tries to bring any evil report when you are forty. When you are fifty, suddenly. You begin to feel one kind of pain, and like the gentleman, they come and tell you you have one year to live. Did you save anything for those days? You can draw from the archives of your spiritual investment, and with confidence you can say, I have no business with the grave. The fullness of my days I will fulfill. Look at it. It says Joseph opened the storehouses and sold grain to the Egyptians. I thought they saved it for them. There is no record in the Bible that Pharaohs stopped them from saving their own, and there is no record that they saved their own. They sat down, crossed their legs and said, don't worry. Joseph is saving it for us. Prayer department is praying for me. Don't worry. I know courssibly it doesn't sleep in the night. It is interceding for me. But I assure you that day those grains will be opened the warehouse, there will be a cost. It will no longer be free. Are we together? Do you know? Once upon a time I have so much access. I mean, people could just come any day, anytime. You could meet me on the road. And today you can imagine. Sometimes I get to pray for people and I see my own people and I'm tat I'm looking at you are looking at me, but we can't touch ourselves again. There are people who God said that got wondering, and it is something in jam God see gave them admission. For five years they were rooming around Abu lloydtering around on until their final year when they finally said, let me just come for this miracle service, and they graduated in tears. And some of them right now they're whare they are and every Friday day must buy that and listen to something they would have listened free their room made today are already ministry. Some of them already have churches, and it's now they're answering the call. It's not too late, but it will not be as easy as it was. It's like going to secondary school at age forty five, no knowledge is say waste, what chances are you be sleeping? Because at that level, both your life and your mind there are responsibilities. There is nobody in that class that should be further. But now you are no knowledge. You say, waist, why do not come at that platter of gold? Are we together? For the farmine was so saven throughout Egypt the last verse, and let me build on some things and we pray really plays together one to read And all the countries came to Egypt to buy grain from who? Because the farmine was severe? I thought it was just Egypt from josh self dream did they say the interpretation? They didn't mention, well there, I thought it was just Egypt. So he said, Lord, that happens to all men other countries who didn't have the dreams. The sofadd it. So others were just eating. They didn't know that it was one year left for famine to start. And famine came, and all of a sudden the kings who called themselves and said we're dying, bias, money has failed, All of a sudden news started going and said, there is a young Hebrew boy in Egypt. There is so much abundance in Egypt, and they started running. The Bible says, gentiles will come to your light, are you saying now? And their kings because of the extent of the famine, they. Will distand that it is true. Men are saying there is a casting down, But I don't know what is happening to this group of people. For them, it looks like there is a lifting up. That when people are saying, God, what shall become the lot of our lives? You are giving and you are blessing. When you are fifteen years you will say, I know God more now than I did even in my youth. I have more time for him now. And they say, why is your life like this? You say, because I was taught the mystery of Pharaoh's dream. When the Lord taught me this mystery, I got down my knees and I cried before him, and I said, thank you Lord for your love for me. I have found the key. I have found the key. Our fathers turned their back and allowed us to see theirs cauls. And now that we have been privileged to see it, we can know that, by the grace of God, we will rise, we will remain, and at the end of time, even with honor, it will be that the name of the Lord continues to be lifted in a through our lives, whether we are here or not. Transgenerational relevance. There was something Jesus did that, even though it's been ages, the name of Jesus still continues to be lifted. You will go to countries and even at the edge of his sword there are people who would stand and pledge for him. What happened that the name cannot go down? What did Jesus do? I want to show you something now, what happened, because if you do that same thing for some of you, the name of your family will remain forever. Do you know there are families that the moment maybe the children get married. The name the honor name there does not just mean the title. There was an honor that was upon the families, but they did. Not know what to do. And right now it is shame. It is reproach. I rebuke that over your life, in the name of Jesus Christ. What do you do during seasons of opportunity? Let me give you four keys how to maximize your seven years of abundance? Number one, what do you do during seasons of abundance? Build capacity? Number one? Build capacity, spiritual capacity, intellectual capacity, build capacity. The days of abundance are not days of over celebration. The days of abundance are not the days to be carried away by the flatteries of men. I've told you there is a witness in men. There is something that honor does to us. There is something that celebration does to us. When you become a superstar, or you aspire to become a superstar, I am telling you there is a side effect. The side effect is that it makes us short term in our memory. We fail to think. Show us the ancient paths. Will you lead us along eternal highway? We want to fall out the ways of Jesus we want. To build capacity. Now that you have time, now that you have someone giving you pocket money, now that you are still employable. You have not retired yet. It looks like you have twenty five years left. It looks like you have twenty years, you have fifteen years, you have ten years. Ten years looks like a lot of time until you see what comes with it. That's the time to build spiritual capacity. Skip nakataata. You are praying. You're a student, for instance, you still have time. There's no reason to be celebrating nonsense and be wasting your time. No, the little time you have, you are studying. Open my eyes that I may behold one those things. You are listening to teachings. You are spiritualizing your mind. You are getting materials buying books, not shoes, not clothes. Leave those things. They will follow you where you are transformed. Focus on your transformation. The money that young people waste on useless things, things that have no profit, as far as the fu choice concerned, if you can be patient that money, multiples of it, will look for you a thousand times. The days of abundance are not the days to look for invitation. I am a music minister. Please invite me. I am a man of God. God called me to be an apostle and a prophet. Be patient. There's so many semons you are going to preach in your life. You will need grace. Go right now, be obtaining the grace. Don't be running around looking for the invitation. Build capacity, Build capacity. That's what you do during times of abundance. Build capacity, capacity to last, capacity. To defend the grace that is now given to you. Get knowledge. Don't be a local champion. Get knowledge. Number two. What do we do with our seasons of opportunity? Number two? Build relationships? Oh, write that in capital letter. Write that in capital letter. Build relationships. Productivity and fruitfulness are relational. What betip you if you do not have anybody to. Help you you during your season of family? There are families today. Everything they eat is what they worked for, Everything they where is what they bought. Everywhere they goes where they took themselves to. No, no, no, it should not be like that. Relationships are powerful, their advantageous connection. They are systems of leverage. There has to be somebody in your life who likes you enough to be able to invest their time, their reputation, their credibility on your destiny? Are we blessed? Yes, sir, I don't have capital. Capital is not the only thing relationships can pay. I met a gentleman one time and he told me something. He said, I don't know one of these schools in Africa. And he said that he had been looking for school fish to collect his certificate accumulated. I think their school they allowed them to pay to steal school like student loans. And he needed a total of let's say three to five hundred thousand to go and collect his certificate since twenty sixteen. And while he was telling me, he sounded sympathetic, And I told him, from twenty sixteen till today, didn't you have classmates? Didn't you go to church? Did everybody fail? Who you used to know? You mean not body out of the hundreds of people that God gave me the privilege of relationship with, you did not bless anybody enough to remember you. There are people. What is three hundred thousand? What is froundred thousand for someone? It is painful to know someone who is not willing to help you because you treat your life relationships. Hear me, dear ones, some of you will be in departments. Some of you will be in your faculty. You will see people whose shoes are not are not something to write home about, and you ignore them. You are looking for only your tribesmen. You are looking for only those who used to know, and yet your heart is not open to understand what God is doing. A few years down the line, those people will be seeing owns some more time, millionaires. You will not evolve out of somewhere and come and say bless me based on what There are so many people to their claiming persons of people's success is based on my father used to know you. No, no, no, no, it doesn't work like that. Build relationships. Relationships are costly investments. It will cost you your ego, It will cost you your time, It to cost you your sacrifice. Can I tell you this? There are people who will never suf find this life as fast this. Life is concerned. If they don't give your life to Christ, for instance, to accept, they go to hell. But as first this life is concerned. They have connected themselves. To too many people who will never forget them. Oh oh, oh, oh oh whoa oh. I met a gentleman I used to know years ago. I was so happy to see him. How are you greeted? Maybe excess pleasant tries? What are you doing now? So list and I said really, And then I remember I said no, no, no, no, you shouldn't be in this position. Cut the long story short. God lifted that person and exalted that person overnight. There are some prayers who will not need to pray. If you understand relationships. You hear what I said, Believe me, Believe me. I know what I'm telling you. It's a covenant. Is there any man in the House of Saul that I may show. Him kindness for Junathan's sake? There are some of us. The way you are going with your life now, the truth is that you have already secured the destiny of your children. People will love you too much. Every time they see you, they remember the quality of your relationship, and they will say, over my dead body, there are people today who will never be founded of house rent. There are people today. Even if you decide to be lazy, your relationship has placed you on online salary forever. May you be like that this night. Listen to me. I'm speaking to you because some of you are in your seasons of our bonders now. Everybody likes me think, well, now, in light of what I'm teaching, it's a window that will not always be open. You invest in relationships. The person will remember the day that he came late and you got up and. Said please sit down. Ah no, no, no, I came late for Cononia. No sit down. I can't stand you think he has forgotten you. You just carried twenty percent of your time and invested it. Are you saying now, yes, sir? After coin Onia, someone is going home broke and the Holy. Girl tells you he's just seventeen era. Please pay for bye for this man? Sir? Can I pay for bye for you? I don't know you? Who are you know? Coinonia? Here just to bless you? And you paid that seventy thousand that's seventeen era, and you don't know that that's seventeen hour. Is an estate you just paid. After ten years, you will see you and your wife and your children. Listen to me, and you will say I remember you shall Are you not the one in you? Said Zarah? I said, what are you doing now? I said, well, God is if we say come, God has helped me today. Please come. Let me give you one place I'm giving you. Listen this wisdom key will bless you for the rest of your life. There are some of you. You are not. Represented in anybody's story, anybody's story. Nobody can make reference to you to say you pray for me. While I was looking for someone to pray for you were there. You were not there while my child was crying. Ten this thing they give children gogle you didn't you just want the child? How white you children cry like this? You are subtracting. Let me tell you what you are doing. Listen, listen, listen, take. Me very serious. You are subtracting from the years of abundance. You hear someone is getting married. God gives you one hundred thousand. You can't take ten thousands. I said, look just to bless you, can I tell you, when you make efforts to sincerely be friendly from a pure heart, you are making investments for you tomorrow. There is something that being blessed does. It gives you the ease to be a blessing. And not everybody will struggle forever. The person you are seeing who cannot get today tomorrow you will get to a point where well to become like like the hands of the sea show and at that point all that will be left is who do I need to bless? Not will life bless? There are people today every day they're giving houses in this country. There are people giving jobs in this country. No interview. There are some of us. The names of our parents are keys. It can open any door. There are some of us. The names of our parents are pad locks. They look at your name and say which one. It's all right? You go your hear from us. And yet you are a first class student. You must make up your mind that your name become a key to your child. There are children. Today who are head boy, head year regard, even if they're not taking first position. Because something about the relationship of your father and the principle is his school. He can't do what ever he wants to do it in school. Look at me? Who is in your life now, sincerely helping you? Why do you have to call people before they help you calculate your age? Who sees you as what he's healthy in? Today? There are many preachers. They love God, they are born again. They focus on God, but they ignore men. You pay for the sticker yourself, You pay for the keyboard yourself. You are getting married. The even they commit your friends, They come together and you have to pay them again. What sort of a human being are you? Now make up your mind from tonight that you are going to invest in relationships. You don't need money, but the few that you have your roommates may be there. You are the only person who is privileged among them. Keep hiding your food. You don't know what you are doing to yourself. I went together. Keep washing your plates alone. You don't know what you are doing. Don't follow all these nonsense that people do in films and movies. It would destroy you. Those people are acting. Go through the sacrifice. Now, look like a fool. Now there is a kind of business where you don't tell anything. You give like a mad person, but the returns are guaranteed. It's the business of men. Your roommate comes back with five carryovers, as if you return from a funeral. You are the first to say you're an embarrassmental redemption. You continue, it will remember. You in the future. Oh, don't worry. Don't worry. One day you'll be a doctor. It's all right. Things happen in life, and regardless what it is, don't worry. Where will I get the last goofies? Now I'm in final year. I'm having to skill over. My father will kill me. Look there's a little scholarship I used to collect. It's not much this one hundred thousand. I can spare twenty thousand from it. It may not do you much, well let it encourage you. You did this for me from a sincere heart. After ten years, your twenty thousand has grown into honor. As that man rises, your twenty thousand makes you rise too. You never knew your twenty thousand was a living thing. I show you why many people never rise. Look at great men. For some of you who have had the privilege to work with great men, their lives are purely based on history and based on relationship. Look at politicians. There are sons and daughters, so there who become governors, who become senators, not because of any capacity. I remember you. They were about to shoot me in nineteen eighty one. I remember, and they laughed. Retired generals and they're all laughing. So what are you doing now? My son wants to get this old don't worry. Hello, sir, we found a person. Please give this person. And you are there praying and your prayer request right on it, right skin. Your presence was given to someone. May God delivers from ignorance, same as I'm talking to you. Now. There are some of you. You are saying why you hate your family. Don't hate your family, but learn from the mistakes. They had opportunities, and yet they wasted it. They insulted everybody around them. You had a house help, the house help who wake up by five? You had names that you will give up stupid. There where are you, ma? She will come? Whereas that's the person who would. Deliver you in old age, and the Holy Spirit is saying, don't do this, she will come, Madam. I had a dream. In that dream I saw you crying in the future. Is you are the witch that this you beat the girl and is reminant of food you give us. There's a special plate place that they gave us souvenir for a wedding where you come and take your own and the girl is eating with gratitude. And you do not know that time and chance happens to them all one day, one correct bunny gain man who ses God with higher and wealth, who now come and not even see your children, who now see that one and say I like this one, say sorry, I'm not sure you know what you were saying. There are others said, no, my heart has seen what I like. We die here? Who cally listen? I spoke about relationships, and you are now excited for nothing? Said that? Are we together? God? Do you use that man to carry that young girl and wipe the tears of her generation, not just her family? Whereas someone likes you and tell me about your mother. I've heard that story before, so she's the one. I will never marry you till Jesus comes. Why must we do this kind of thing for ourselves? There have some of our loved ones who had the opportunity to give jobs to people. Did they give them jobs? No? They were in positions where they would have the names of one hundred people. They didn't have anybody until one day stroke hits them and now the company had to retire them. Why do you want people to bless you when you didn't raise anybody? Don't you know when you raise people is a cushion for your own self. There are music artists today who did not raise anybody. They hait alone as God was lifting them, or the younger ones were coming and said, listen to my song. We say what is this? I received it by the spirits alone. It's not the Holygoes that gave these kind of songs instead of. You to encourage the person. Don't worry you can't rise. Listen to me. I want to open your eyes to night to see that some of you. What you are doing is that you are not investing your twenty percent for the years that are coming. There is no body in your life who you bless intentionally. You are just expecting people to bless you. No, we have many children in Coinnonia here. Which one have you ever bought something and told the mother be blessed? We have many people in school here, young people, some of them their school is is one thousand and two thousand. The foolishness we do Valentine comes. You see, we were acting like fools. They do all kinds of things, waste money that even the girls' parents have never given her. And yet there are people here. I'm not being sarcastic. I'm waking you up. There has to be someone who would tell you this thing fake lives for nothing. You're a student. You are dressing like a ceo. You are not there. Buy in expensive things where us you would have used that money buy five books on prayer, find people that you see God already lifting them. Sir, this is I thought this would bless your life. One day, you're in a restaurant and you see someone, are you almost get you embarrassed because of ten. Ira show up quickly. That's an opportunity for an investment in the future, and says, I don't worry. I don't know it, but I've seen your face coming on. Really, please let me have your honor to bless you. You sit down in the car. You just get on a lot of ten thousand and the transport phase just two hundred narra an opportunity to sew into your life by the grace of God. This is one thing I did with my life, and I thank God for it today because the person who may not be able to help you yesterday certainly will be able to help you tomorrow. Is God blessing us. Let's hurry up. What do you do with your seasons of opportunity? Number one is build capacity? Number two is build relationships. Number three selflessly invest in blessing and transforming lives. I think I already stated that add chapter nine, please quickly, just to add scriptures to it. Selflessly invest in blessing and transforming lives. This is what you should do with your seasons of abundance selflessly. The key word is selfless, selflessly invest Let me tell you this, during your seasons of plenty, forget about yourself. Be of less important, less importance. Poor your hat into people, not. Because you were expecting something in return. Sincerely paid the price to build people. Pay the price to be part of the stories of people. Him Aram. Him sits on the. Throne Alt chapter nine, from verse thirty six. Help us media, we're reading to forty two. Now watch this. Peter came to a place in the Bible says in Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha look up please, which when translated is dogers. The Bible says, who was always doing what? Talk to me please? She was always doing good and helping the poor. She had an opportunity. She never allowed the poor like that. She did good and she helped the poor. Thirty seven About that time, ahh, yeah, you come again. Time she became sick and died, and her body was washed and placed in an upstairs room that he ate. Leader was near Jopper. So when the disciples heard. That Peter was in Leader they sent two men to him, and orgin come please at once. Peter went with them, and when he arrived, look at this, Look at this, look at this. When he arrived, he was taken upstairs to the room. Allelujah, Look at those who gathered all. The people she invested in. All the widows stood around him doing what cracking and showing him the robes and all the clothing that Docers had made for them. While she was still with them. While that woman was alive, she would not see poor people go like that. I may not have much, but let me add a smile to you. When she died, the widow said no way, no way. They stood and said, Peter, do so thing. The widows provoked this anointing, and they said, this woman who will now do it for us. This was the woman who was there for us. May you have someone who speaks for you, or may you have someone who speaks for you in the name of Jesus. May you have someone who can speak for you and bring to remembrance what you have done for the kingdom. Bitter provoked by your tears. He sent them all out of the room, and he got down on his knees. He didn't stand to pray this kind of prayer. He knelt down, and turning towards the dead woman, he said to Bitter, get up, and she opened her eyes. K but so brand a cascobiata. She would have died like that, and he would have finished. But something about her investing in lives, He said, I shall not die, but live and declare. There is a way you are so useful to kingdom. Come that is not only God that will pray for your longevity. Men to say, may God leave you for us? Can I tell you this? Help them? Please listen? There are people today, Look at me. There are people today. The good will of men is almost like prophecy on their lives. Do you know that good will carries power? Whether I'm born again or not. The woman that tries a karah have blessings on you. The one who sells bread, his blessing is on you. My matter you do not know, have blessing is on you. Then there is the prophetic blessing on you. Then there is one who you visited during your birdday. This milds of blessings. You think they don't matter. One boss man somewhere may not be born again, But he told you let it be well with you. I tell you, Heaven honors it. There are people who, when you see them rise, it's not just a product of their personal work with God alone. They are surrounded by the good will. People learn this lesson Tapeter, No, you. Can't go like that. Who then will feed the widows? My life today, by the grace of God, is surrounded by intercessors all over. The world, some who have been called by God and others who. Have benefactors of things by His grace that I have done for them who have vowed in life. Let me tell you this, there are people today if you carry it, God to kill me. Not everybody, but there are people who stand and receive it and die first. It is over your dead body. May you have such people in your life. It does not happen by being a man of God. It happens to the sacrifice of investments. A Babad day boy today lifts his hand and say, people, my card just spoiled. What do you think is going to happen? Many cars stands will be emptied. Because one man who grew with a generation personately pouring his hearts to them in life of selfishness. Let them do it for me is a recipe for pain in the days that are coming. I remember many years ago I went to preach somewhere and I saw that the ministry was struggling, really struggling. And they put together a little or onraium, and I knew that deeple don't have this capacity. Probably they borrowed money just to show or not. I called the person his wife. I told him, I said, look, I thank you. They were crying. I said, I love you people. I just came to bless you. I didn't come to receive money. I know that you people are working. And the Lord gave me an instruction. I saw the dangerous seat for them, pray for them and told them, May God bless you till tomorrow. Those people my song is on their lips. Sometimes they send me text message and they identify themselves as people who I blessed this more than maybe ten or eleven or twelve years ago. Who remembers you for what you have done in your lives? Where are the widows that remember what you are doing for them? Some of you, even your family members, can't remember you because you've not done anything for anybody. It is time for change. Are we together? Number four? What do you do during your seasons of abundance. Listen, the fourth thing you do is study those who have maintained relevance two seasons. That's the fourth thing you do. Study, Study those who have maintained relevance while you have the time, while the dark days have not come. Pared the price, studied those who have gone ahead of you, who have survived seasons. Hebrews chapter six and verse twelve. The Bible says, to follow them to faith and patience. Follow them Hebrews six twelve. It says to follow them who. To faith and patience go back to KJV have obtained the promise. A man who is celebrating forty years in ministry, celebrating thirty five years in ministry, forty five years in ministry. Even if that person was playing. I think you can play for thirty five years, You can't play for forty five years. Here in lies the arrogance of our generation will insult people who have gone ahead of us with down play the sacrifices of successful people. Archbishop Benson neither Rosas said, do not talk about anybody's results until you have twice that result. There are people who have not built anything. They have not raised any body in their lives. But there is no man of God. They will not talk about all across the globe. No, it ought not to be so. Years ago, when I used to counsel, when I used to do counseling, I remember a man who came and he was talking, and they brought one young boy and the boy was just lambasting his father, and my presence like trying to be bold to say the father has been irresponsible, and the father just kept quiet to respect me, as though, look, the boy is telling the truth. It's not my fault. And I was just watching the young boy just shouting and talking the rubbish, and I asked him a question. I said, young man, have you ever saved any amount for your schoofish? And he kept quiet. At his age, there are many people in the world who are changing nations and changing their. Cities, and he's there. He's never raised even one percent of the school fish, and yet he cannot honor the man who at least is trying. Allelujah. I remember one time I was counseling someone years ago, very funny, funny incident, and I think the person had two children also, And then at a point said do you know what it means to raise two children? Do you know the financial implication? And I looked at the person with compassion in my heart. I said, if I tell this man, how many families not children, by the grace of God and by the privilege of God's messy, probably in his entire lifetime, in many lifetimes put together, he may not come close to it. And here is me giving him a kind advice with all due respect, and he's almost dying because of two children. And now I'm telling him there is a way to go about it. And he's arguing, how many poor people don't listen to people who God has helped? They your formula and art you and tell me it's not the way. And yet the person is struggling, suffering, giving excuses, respect results, and respect people who God has honored to get results the Kingdom's way. I went together, study them, study them. One of the fathers of faith that I met recently, we had a very long discussion with him. And when we had a long discussion with him, he finished talking to me advised me. And you know how I felt. I felt like somebody who was moving from nursery school to primary school. I really felt not false humility. I could see so many things I did not know, and yet I'm someone who is very passionate for knowledge. I was not afraid for myself again, I was afraid for many people who will not listen. I said, oh boy, they people have lost it until the God of Heaven shows messy. You know in your world, you will always think you know until you see horizon that is higher than that. I don't mean to forgive me if. I do, but I remember years ago when. I used to teach you pull on the secret of church growth. A lot of people used to say so many things. People then said, it's because he's leading students, It's because he's doing a lot of things. They are just young people who are sympathetic to him. As what are you saying? This is scripture. If you have it, you have it. If you don't have it, you don't have it. Don't argue with results. Just all that, Jelsey, don't force out that little girl. Remember what I taught you. You drag that lady care Leslie. Tomorrow you have a lot to pay for. She'll remember you. You think you'll forget you. You are my hiding Please. You all we seem. With sounds of delieveveans I will trust. Let's wrap up. Look chapter sixteen. Let me show you one person who utilized this season very well. Look chapter sixteen very quickly pleased from verse one and the disciples, and he said onto his disciples, look or please. There was a certain rich man which had a steward, and the same was accused onto him that he had we said it is good. So the rich man was angry at the stewards and he called. Him and said onto him, how is it that I hear this? Or b give an account of that steewardship, for thou mayorst no longer the. Steward verse three. And then the steward said to himself, Jesus is teaching. Now what shall I do? For my Lord? Take it away from me? The stewardship? I cannot dig, and to beg I am ashamed? So what is his strategy? I am resolved? What to do? That when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses. You hear the man thinking, now Jesus is teaching. Verse five. What did he do? He called every one of his lord's detos. And said onto the first how much os thow you, my lord verse six, and he said one hundred measures of oil, and he said, take the bill, sit down quickly and write fifty. What's what this guy's doing now, the wisdom? This is someone who is not born again. He has seen trouble come and he knows that if they drive me from this estate, I don't have anything. So let me quickly do something with these relationships. And he said to another, how much always done? And he said one hundred measures of wit? And he said, unto him, take that bill and write eighty. And the Lord commended the unjust the word. Now God was not teaching to cheek. He was just saying the man had sense to know that he could lean on those relationships because seasons were about to change in his life. Are you getting the morale? Now? He commanded your He commended the unjusty word because he had done wisely for the children of this world, I in their generation, wiser than the children. Of lights nine. And I said to you make yourself friends of Mamon of unrighteousness, that when ye failed, they shall receive you into everlast inhabitations. What this means is not teaching you to go after money or go after all of these things. The idea is that use your seasons of plenty as a leverage. The moment you have fame, you have blessings, they pay you your salary, you get some marears. Don't eat everything alone. Remember to edge your impact in someone's life so that tomorrow you can have people who can stand by you, stand with you, support you, support your family, and help you. If all you have in your life is your intellect, If all you have in your life is your salary, if all you have in your life is your business, if all you have in your life is you and yourself, you'll be in troubled today's world. Allelujah. You now understand what God was doing when he told us that we will not sell our teachings. Now, please, you're a personal here. I'm not saying don't sell tips. That's not what I'm saying, but this is a painful instruction. At the time God gave this instruction, the media ministry was the major one of the major income generating revenues for ministries at that time. Books and this aside from offerings and tides. So that was a suicidal project. I know the quality of the things that I teach by the spirit while we not sell them to at least generate from revenue for the ministry. And God said, no, it shall not be that way. Put it online and let people have it free. And I said, so be it, my. God, my God. First forward. Whatever God tells you by, he doesn't tell you for today. He tells you for your ten years, for your twenty years. That's why I call it an investment. There are nations today, there are people today who forever for the rest of my life, the lifetime of this ministry, and many who are connected to disgrace. There are certain levels you will not go lower than. Again, you do not know the extent of the impact that these teachings are brought for people. Obedience, selflessly, giving yourself to the Lord Lamentations three twenty seven. As I conclude, the Bible says it is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth. That means there is timing for everything. Bear your yoke. Now, go through the sacrifice. Now. I love you, That's why I'm sharing with you this truth. Examine your life now. The idea of me myself, it is only me and me and me alone, is a. Recipe for disaster and destruction. And let me tell you this, if you go and start selecting people to bless because you want something in return, you'll be surprised that that harvests will still not come. The harvest comes not just on the basis of giving, but the sincerity of your heart. If I give you something today because I'm expecting you to remember me tomorrow is a joke. That is business. That's not love. Allelujah. They are all kinds of people who continue to bless my life, bless the ministry today apposed to thank you. You came to a campus when I was a student. I remember years ago. I went to pick my card from one of the embassies and I was just to sit down to do my metrics. And the gentleman who was sitting in front of me, as soon as he saw me, he was almost shaking. He said, good afternoon, sir. A somebody knows me here again this is an embassy, and he said, sir, I have something to tell you. Remember you came for a crusade in our campus. So so so yes, that was where I got born again. I got through the Holy Spirit. I didn't do anything again. The gentleman ran around did everything, and I said, oh, dear, yes, that is somebody's prayer request. One day you will go somewhere, someone will establish his business and say you may not know me, but you blessed me, you preached. I remember it was under your administration that I got born again. I covenant with God that ten percent of all my profits will be for you and your children forever. You think that the ten percent is ten thousand until you see what comes the first month, and you say, this is how it will be for the rest of your life. Jesus said in John nine, verse four, I must work the works of Him that sent me while it is day, for the night cometh when no man will walk again. Some of these, my dear people, you see, they make sacrifices every week. I'm sure you see them. They are here, and then someday they're in Abuja again, and then they return. They're coming, then they're rushing, then they're coming. It's a sacrifice. I have eight sessions of ministration from this night to Monday. Eight. I thought I'll be able to have some time with the School of Ministry students, at least just to say hello. But first thing in the morning, I'm out of this place. Why am I doing these things? Number one? Love? Number two sacrifice. Make sure your life is counting for something beyond you. Listen to what I just said. Make sure your life is counting for something beyond you. Beyond you. This gentleman is standing behind the camera. It's a lot of sacrifice. See that. And he was one time the best school of ministry students in one of the years. And when he's done with all these things, it's part of those who be rushing down to a buja to help the students with their registration process. This has sacrifices that people make all the time. What are you doing? Don't sit down and say, of course, will pray for me. Let people be doing it for me. No, it is always my joy to see that my life becomes a blessing. And I told myself it is not because I'm expecting anything from anyone, but it is with all my heart. Today I'm humbled. At many times in the secret I just shed tears of joy seeing what God has used this life today. To do to the nations. I completely forgot that yesterday was eleven. He was civil. That reminded me that you areware that it's eleventh March I said, well, I don't. Can you imagine because I was focused on impact. Not records records, that you are so diligent you can almost forget your bird day. Is those who have impacted who force. You to remember. There are people who who will ask God that one. Year to the time or on me, No, something is wrong, remember my my five. Years in the Lord? Who have you blessed? Five years in the Lord? Five years in the Lord? Is that young with the influence of the Holy Ghost mentorship and the world? Five years? If you were, if you were diligent in five years, you should have done much for the kingdom. Let me ask you a question, who did you bring for Coinonia? Now? Who will thank you after ten years? There are many of these are young people now who just got admission. Some of you does pass them. You climb you bike, I'm on my way to defy my spirit. Keep doing it. You will in the years to you will see that when these days those ugly cows come, they will eat up everything you have done. I will never waste an opportunity to build capacity. I will never. Waste an opportunity to build quality. Destiny relationships. I will never waste an opportunity to selflessly. Pour my life blessing people. Listen this appetite for fame, this appetite for a name, kill it in the name of Jesus, and focus on being a blessing. Focus on being a blessing rather than having your face behind those things. God, who sees what you are doing, both in secret and open, will reward you openly. There are families today that live to top the name of the Lord and call upon the names of some of us because of what we have done. In their lives day and night. Can your parents call upon God for your sake every day to say, Lord, remember this our daughter, Remember this our son. There's an old hymn that says, must I go an empty handed? It says, must I meet my savior soul, not one soul with which to greet you? Must I empty handed go? Are you living your life just for yourself? Where is my husband? Where is my job? Where is my money? Where is my destiny? Helper? When will you give all that to other people? Some of us are so self centered we're not even aware of the degree of self centeredness. Money is useless until it lives. Where costs bigger than you? And nineteen is useless until its dispense for a cost bigger than you. Fame is useless until it dispends for a cost bigger than you. Listen to me. Influence is useless. Knowledge is useless until you can live for a cost that is bigger than you. For some of you, God is challenging you. You already work at your own salary. One day you can look at a patient and it's just three thousand, and the Holy Spirit can tell you pay that bill. You don't have to know the person. You reap what you saw, not where you sow. And course w I don't have much. That's why you may never have much, because it's not. In your heart. Allelujah, He pays to serve Jesus. I speak from my heart. You always be with us. I can't even remember it. There's peace and contentment in serving the Lord. I love you far better. You've forgotten it. How serve you more truly than ever before? How do us? It beats me? Whatever the cause, I'll be a. True soldier outide. It's where men who did not write these things for money. They wrote it sincerely. It was a contemplation of their hearts. Two prairie quests to night, one you will be seated. The other you will stand up the first Our time is gone. It's going to be both a refre election. Any prayer. Think about your life in one minute while you pray, am I living my life maximally? Please think? Don't look around since hear me. You are twenty five. Now, you are thirty, Now you are forty. Now you are forty five. In the next ten years, you'll be plus ten of your current age. In the next twenty years, you'll be plus twenty of your current age. As I'm only fifteen years, they are one. In the next fifteen years, you will. Be thirty. A personal I'm forty. In the next twenty years, you would have spent sixteen years on earth. Please pray, Talk to the Lord, talk to your maker. Lord. I'm tired of living. A visionless life, a profitless life. Things have to change. The dream of Joseph again and the dream of Pero is sweeping across the earth, asking people to remember that for every season of relevance, every season of abundance, every season of opportunity, there will be seasons of constraint, there will be seasons of luck. It is what you do tonight you are hearing the voice of the spirit. He to the advice of Joseph. He was not an advice and a counsel for just Egypt. And there will come. The person who supports you today may not be there, and there will come the person who may be the brand winner. May not be there. Again, and there will come. Your certificate will be limited. I tell you, there will come your spirituality. As powerful as it is, you will need more to eat. It is what you do with the moments now, those following from around the world, and the many who will be hearing this, no. Matter how long it takes. Be wise, be wise. It's the soul. Then teach us to number our days that we may spend and apply our hats. On to wisdom. Do not destroy your opportunities. Be wise, Do not destroy your moments. Hear me, there are moments that when they pass you by, they may never come back again. You have your opportunity to bless your parents now while they are alive. Don't treat your lives their presence, and. They may come. They may not be there again.

Our time is gone, But pray, please pray, Allelujah, please rise upon your feet for the last prayer point. How do as it please me, whatever the cost, I'll be true soul. My goal. One of the wisest decisions that I made in my life was to love God with all my heart and pursue him passionately and sincerely. The next was to pursue knowledge, to pursue wisdom. The next was to understand man and to pay the price to be a sincere contributor to the growth, the lifting, the rising of many, without expecting anything in return. Not for the purpose of making a name, that's politics. I made up my mind that even the course of serving His Majesty, I personally to be with the Lord. So let it be at least let it be that I did my best. We're not called to do everything, but we're called. To do our best. I know our time is gone, But you are standing and looking at me.

There are times that I would finish counsel in two or three, and yet I have to wake up, maybe by five or so, to rush for the airport, especially if it's the Abuja airport. The risk on the road. As I was driving down coming, I fought yes many times. I said, my God, I said, I will do this again if I have to do it, not for myself, not for a name. If I were doing ministry for a name, I will not be doing ministry again. There is nothing I'm looking for that His Majesty has not given me. I am, and I am someone who has been privileged. Not many people have this privilege in a generation. It's an honor will never take for granted. But my heart, I've not slept in days I was battling sleep. While I was coming, I. Said, should I arrest the bit? I said, no, no. Impact. You don't leave just for yourself, my money, my everything. No. As you listen to this message, listen to it with a notebook.
