[0:01] Speaker 1: My dear friend and brother is here. Amen.
[0:04] Speaker 2: A man that I dearly, dearly love. Dearly, dearly love.
[0:16] Speaker 2: I don't know, my heart is just talked to this man.
[0:19] Speaker 1: I tell you.
[0:21] Speaker 2: You know, it's just how you know people out of
[0:24] Speaker 2: the pulpit. This man is genuine. You know, every time
[0:32] Speaker 2: I interact with him, I have striking moments. One of
[0:36] Speaker 2: my miracle services, I told him, I said, you know,
[0:40] Speaker 2: I've been believing God to begin miracle services. And I said,
[0:45] Speaker 2: you really just inspired me just watching your miracle services.
[0:49] Speaker 2: And boy, have we seen miracles in this place. Men
[0:54] Speaker 2: of God, we've seen people get out of wheelchair whose
[0:57] Speaker 2: legs were jellied. Cancer healed. HIV disappeared. I mean, we've
[1:04] Speaker 2: seen all kinds of miracles. One of the Sundays at
[1:10] Speaker 2: 2 a.m., he sends me a test. He says, man
[1:12] Speaker 2: of God, I'm praying for you.
[1:14] Speaker 1: And I'm like, ah.
[1:16] Speaker 2: And then I think either we called or interacted and
[1:20] Speaker 2: I'm like, wow. I am preparing for my own service.
[1:24] Speaker 2: He's preparing for his. And he remembered me in his prayers. Boy,
[1:29] Speaker 2: that meant a billion. I mean, it was more than
[1:32] Speaker 2: if you gave me a billion ring. I truly honor
[1:36] Speaker 2: this man. I truly celebrate him and the friendship we have.
[1:42] Speaker 2: You know, I've told you the story with me and him.
[1:45] Speaker 2: The first time he came here five years ago. And
[1:48] Speaker 2: from then, he's been coming here every year. I remember
[1:52] Speaker 2: that first time, it was the first time we were meeting.
[1:55] Speaker 2: My late wife was sitting right by my side. And
[1:58] Speaker 2: she said to me, whatever you do, as if she
[2:01] Speaker 2: knew she was going to go, make this man your friend.
[2:07] Speaker 2: And I've kept that commitment. We are true friends, genuine friends.
[2:14] Speaker 1: You know, I'm telling you.
[2:17] Speaker 2: You know, Nathaniel Bassi said something while we were in Kenya.
[2:20] Speaker 1: He says, man, I've never.
[2:22] Speaker 2: Seen a person so excited to meet someone. Genuinely, he
[2:25] Speaker 2: said that. And I know you both are very close.
[2:28] Speaker 2: But I think when he saw our closeness, he was
[2:30] Speaker 2: on another level. I'm glad he was jealous. Amen.
[2:35] Speaker 1: Yeah, Nathaniel, feel it now. Amen. Hallelujah.
[2:39] Speaker 2: But House of Treasures Ministries, God has sent us his servant.
[2:45] Speaker 1: A genuine apostle. Authentic. Sent from God. To the world.
[2:56] Speaker 2: God is using him all across the nations. Whenever he
[3:01] Speaker 2: gathers meetings, it's Arena Stadium filled up in strange lands.
[3:08] Speaker 1: And so we are privileged to have him here tonight.
[3:12] Speaker 2: House of Treasures Ministries, Ownership Conference 2025.

[4:23] Speaker 2: Let me stand on the existing protocol for the sake
[4:26] Speaker 2: of our time. Our time is fast spent. I just

[4:33] Speaker 5: When the glory comes, there'll be no words to say.
[4:41] Speaker 6: Oh, oh, oh.
[4:49] Speaker 5: When the glory comes there'll be no words to say.
[5:02] Speaker 2: May the Lord change someone in a radical way tonight
[5:07] Speaker 2: may the Lord give you an extraordinary encounter tonight in
[5:13] Speaker 2: Jesus name we pray please you may be seated Reverend Ikes,
[5:19] Speaker 2: an honor again to see you, sir.
[5:20] Speaker 1: God bless you. Hallelujah. Please be seated. For sake of time,
[5:26] Speaker 1: I want to introduce my session.
[5:29] Speaker 2: I want to believe that it's been an awesome session
[5:32] Speaker 2: so far. I know that God has prepared his vessels
[5:39] Speaker 2: and they have brought different dimensions of his grace and
[5:44] Speaker 2: his word to us. And let me request that even
[5:49] Speaker 2: though we have stretched in prayer, in worship, just pay
[5:53] Speaker 2: attention for the next few minutes and let's trust God
[5:56] Speaker 2: to establish a few things. I came with an assignment
[6:02] Speaker 2: and I want to walk along the lines of your theme.
[6:07] Speaker 2: It's been a strong burden in my heart. I'm hoping
[6:10] Speaker 2: that we will learn how to birth the prophetic. I
[6:16] Speaker 2: want to show you in hopefully a two-part series that
[6:21] Speaker 2: I captured the travail. I will be showing you by
[6:25] Speaker 2: the word of God how prophetic seasons are birthed, how
[6:30] Speaker 2: the glory is made manifest and is made visible, how
[6:38] Speaker 2: realities and results are produced in the lives of believers. Father,
[6:43] Speaker 2: we pray in the name of Jesus that the entrance
[6:45] Speaker 2: of your word will give us light, let it give
[6:48] Speaker 2: us understanding 2 Corinthians chapter 4 and verse 17. 2
[6:54] Speaker 2: Corinthians 4 and verse 17. For our light affliction, which
[7:02] Speaker 2: is but for a moment, walketh for us a far
[7:07] Speaker 2: more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
[7:11] Speaker 1: Verse 18.
[7:12] Speaker 2: While we look not at the things which are seen,
[7:15] Speaker 2: but the things which are not seen. For the things
[7:18] Speaker 2: which are seen are temporal. But the things which are
[7:22] Speaker 2: seen are eternal.
[7:24] Speaker 4: Hallelujah.
[7:26] Speaker 1: Praise the name of the Lord.
[7:31] Speaker 2: Most believers know that God desires his glory to be revealed.
[7:38] Speaker 1: In and through our lives.
[7:40] Speaker 2: And every once in a while we find believers who
[7:43] Speaker 2: have aligned with God and have walked in keeping with
[7:46] Speaker 2: his principles as far as the revelation of.
[7:48] Speaker 1: His glory is concerned.
[7:50] Speaker 2: And we behold with admiration the beauty that we see
[7:54] Speaker 2: in their lives. Whether it's manifested as wisdom. Whether it's
[7:58] Speaker 2: manifested as wealth. Whether it's manifested as influence. Manifested as
[8:02] Speaker 2: supernatural power. It doesn't matter what dimension of glory. It's
[8:07] Speaker 2: a spectacular sight to behold the glory of God revealed.
[8:11] Speaker 2: Manifest through a man.
[8:12] Speaker 4: Hallelujah.
[8:14] Speaker 2: The Bible says God desires that the knowledge of that
[8:16] Speaker 2: glory will cover the earth as waters the sea. When
[8:20] Speaker 2: you meet a man who is genuinely wise by the Spirit,
[8:24] Speaker 2: it is a spectacular sight to behold. When you meet
[8:28] Speaker 2: a man who is a custodian of true spiritual power
[8:31] Speaker 2: by the Spirit, it's a spectacular sight to behold. When
[8:35] Speaker 2: you meet a man who has accessed the blessings of
[8:37] Speaker 2: the Lord genuinely with integrity and it's manifest, it's a
[8:41] Speaker 2: spectacular sight. When you see extraordinary illumination, spiritual understandings, It's
[8:47] Speaker 2: a spectacular sight.
[8:49] Speaker 1: Are we together?
[8:50] Speaker 2: When you see any dimension of the glory of God
[8:53] Speaker 2: manifest in and through the saints, the Bible says the
[8:57] Speaker 2: word became flesh. Became flesh. Then it dwelt among us.
[9:04] Speaker 2: Then it says we beheld. We beheld his glory even
[9:08] Speaker 2: as of the Father, full of grace and truth. So
[9:12] Speaker 2: I'm establishing as a foundation that is a spectacular sight to.
[9:16] Speaker 1: See the glory of God revealed in and through a man.
[9:20] Speaker 2: And I don't want to take for granted that we
[9:22] Speaker 2: understand thoroughly the concept of glory. So allow me just
[9:25] Speaker 2: give you a definition of what the glory of God is.
[9:29] Speaker 1: The glory of God.
[9:30] Speaker 2: is an expression of any and every dimension of him.
[9:35] Speaker 2: Any is called his glory. His wisdom, his goodness, his favor,
[9:41] Speaker 2: his power, his intelligence. Every component that makes God, God.
[9:46] Speaker 1: When any dimension of that component finds expression, it is
[9:50] Speaker 1: called glory.
[9:51] Speaker 4: Hallelujah.
[9:52] Speaker 1: Praise the name of the Lord.
[9:54] Speaker 2: Yeah. So when we talk about the glory of God,
[9:57] Speaker 2: we're attempting to describe the multifaceted dimension that are.
[10:00] Speaker 1: In God that seek to find expression. And every time
[10:05] Speaker 1: the glory of God is revealed to a vessel, God
[10:08] Speaker 1: is glorified. Are we learning now? This is very important.
[10:14] Speaker 2: In Matthew chapter 5 from verse 13 to 16, Jesus
[10:17] Speaker 2: is teaching and he says, you are the salt of
[10:19] Speaker 2: the earth. And that if the salt has lost its sever,
[10:22] Speaker 2: wherewith shall it be salted again? It is then for
[10:24] Speaker 2: good for nothing, except to be trampled on the foot
[10:28] Speaker 2: of men, to be thrown and trampled on the foot.
[10:31] Speaker 2: Then verse 14, it says, you are the light of
[10:33] Speaker 2: the world. It says, you are a city that is
[10:35] Speaker 2: set on a hill that cannot be hidden. Neither do
[10:39] Speaker 2: men light a lamp and put it under a bushel,
[10:42] Speaker 2: but that they put it on a lampstand, a candlestick.
[10:46] Speaker 2: And with that, it gives light to everyone in the room.
[10:49] Speaker 2: Verse 16 now says, let your light. The word let
[10:52] Speaker 2: means permit. Do not restrict. Do not restrain. Let your
[10:57] Speaker 2: light so shine before men that the men may see.
[11:02] Speaker 2: They will not see light. They will call it good works.
[11:06] Speaker 2: And the Bible says they will glorify your father. And
[11:10] Speaker 2: you want to understand good works, you have to go
[11:12] Speaker 2: to Ephesians chapter 2 and verse 10. He says, for
[11:15] Speaker 2: we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works,
[11:22] Speaker 2: manifestations of his glory, which God had preordained that we
[11:27] Speaker 2: should work in them.
[11:29] Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
[11:30] Speaker 2: So God is glorified, not just when we desire to
[11:34] Speaker 2: have him glorified. He's glorified when any and every expression.
[11:39] Speaker 1: Of his glory is safely trapped in a man. And
[11:42] Speaker 1: reveal to our world. Who understands me so far?
[11:45] Speaker 2: So our assignment really is not just to be church goers.
[11:50] Speaker 2: Not just to be singers and preachers. All of those
[11:53] Speaker 2: are vehicles that should lead us to a point where
[11:56] Speaker 2: as a perpetual practice. Our lives become an unending revelation.
[12:02] Speaker 2: Of the multifaceted dimensions of God's glory. Whether it's his wisdom.
[12:07] Speaker 2: Whether it's his goodness. The reason why we celebrate testimonies.
[12:11] Speaker 2: Is because captured in those testimonies. At one point in
[12:14] Speaker 2: that discussion. The glory of God was revealed. Are we
[12:18] Speaker 2: together now?
[12:19] Speaker 4: Yes.
[12:20] Speaker 2: When you see success. It's a dimension of the glory
[12:23] Speaker 2: of God revealed. That's why it brings joy. When you
[12:26] Speaker 2: see healing. It's a manifestation of the glory of God revealed.
[12:29] Speaker 2: Everybody say the glory revealed. Say the glory manifest.
[12:34] Speaker 1: One more time. Say the glory revealed. Say the glory manifest.
[12:40] Speaker 2: Every single prayer point you bring before God is your
[12:44] Speaker 2: heart seeking to see a dimension of his glory revealed.
[12:47] Speaker 2: What you call answered prayer is the final arrival.
[12:52] Speaker 1: Of the glory of God manifested in the life of
[12:54] Speaker 1: a person.
[12:55] Speaker 2: We call it answered prayer, but it's really a dimension
[12:58] Speaker 2: of God's glory. If it's a job, it's faith or working,
[13:02] Speaker 2: it's the glory of God revealed. Are we together now?
[13:05] Speaker 2: If it's healing, it's a manifestation of the glory of God.
[13:09] Speaker 2: And God desires to be glorified on earth. And the
[13:13] Speaker 2: way he gets glory is when the saints allow his
[13:16] Speaker 2: glory to be revealed through them. Creation will never truly
[13:21] Speaker 2: honor the invisible God until the saints who represent him
[13:24] Speaker 2: understand the technology of first trapping God.
[13:28] Speaker 1: Then revealing his glory.
[13:31] Speaker 2: When you hear a great song, you know the reason
[13:33] Speaker 2: why it plays to the chords of your spirit. Whether
[13:36] Speaker 2: you are born again or not, you cannot deny the
[13:38] Speaker 2: melody because it came from a realm that is not earthly.
[13:42] Speaker 2: It's captured within it the glory of God. When you
[13:45] Speaker 2: see intelligence, even if the communicator of that intelligence does
[13:49] Speaker 2: not acknowledge God as the giver because it is a
[13:52] Speaker 2: manifestation of God's glory, it is spectacular and you cannot
[13:56] Speaker 2: deny it. When you see intelligence, whether in science, technology, hallelujah,
[14:02] Speaker 2: they are all channels.
[14:04] Speaker 1: That reveal the glory of God.
[14:06] Speaker 2: So it's important for us to have this as a
[14:08] Speaker 2: foundation so that we will really understand this topic. That
[14:11] Speaker 2: the whole idea of travailing is not just to birth
[14:14] Speaker 2: what we want, it is to birth the glory, it
[14:17] Speaker 2: is to.
[14:17] Speaker 1: Birth the prophetic.
[14:20] Speaker 2: Travail is a capture of the spiritual technology allotted.
[14:24] Speaker 1: For revealing the glory of God. Are we together?
[14:27] Speaker 2: So the one who needs to even discuss this topic
[14:30] Speaker 2: must be one who has settled it that my life
[14:32] Speaker 2: will be about the revelation of God's glory. If your
[14:36] Speaker 2: life is not about the revelation of God's glory, then
[14:39] Speaker 2: this topic will not bless you.
[14:42] Speaker 1: Are we learning?
[14:43] Speaker 2: It's important for us to have this foundation. So whilst
[14:47] Speaker 2: you watch, for instance, Minister Dunsin, as he led us
[14:49] Speaker 2: through worship, the creativity, the intelligence is beyond music.
[14:54] Speaker 1: It's the glory of God revealed. Are we together?
[14:57] Speaker 2: Excellence is the glory of God revealed. Creativity is the
[15:02] Speaker 2: glory of God revealed. Technology is the glory of God revealed.
[15:07] Speaker 2: Largely from people who will not acknowledge him as the giver.
[15:10] Speaker 2: But it is still the glory of God. Music, art
[15:13] Speaker 2: is the glory of God. Do you know what it
[15:15] Speaker 2: means to look at someone and turn to a paper
[15:19] Speaker 2: and replicate what you are seeing?
[15:21] Speaker 1: It's the glory of God.
[15:24] Speaker 2: Are we together now? So it says, let your light
[15:26] Speaker 2: so shine before men. Remember, it says, arise, shine, for
[15:30] Speaker 2: your light has come and the glory. Everywhere you see light,
[15:34] Speaker 2: it is connected to glory. Your light has come and
[15:38] Speaker 2: the glory of God.
[15:39] Speaker 1: Has been revealed. Praise the name of the Lord.
[15:42] Speaker 2: Very subtle but very important foundation that the whole idea
[15:47] Speaker 2: and the whole subject of travail, and I'll talk a
[15:49] Speaker 2: bit about that is to see to it that through
[15:53] Speaker 2: my life, through your life, the glory of God in
[15:58] Speaker 2: all its ramifications, as many as your life can capture.
[16:03] Speaker 1: Are we together now?
[16:04] Speaker 4: Yes.
[16:05] Speaker 2: That is revealed to your world. It's revealed to South Africa.
[16:09] Speaker 2: Whoever is able to do that is bringing glory to God.
[16:13] Speaker 2: Because the way God is glorified is that he invests
[16:17] Speaker 2: his glory in the saints. And then he mandates them
[16:20] Speaker 2: to reveal it to their world. John 17 and verse 1.
[16:23] Speaker 2: He lifted up his eyes to heaven and he said, Father,
[16:25] Speaker 2: the hour has come. He says, glorify thy son that
[16:29] Speaker 2: thy son may bring you glory. We call it the
[16:33] Speaker 2: reflection principle. The moon does not have the light of
[16:36] Speaker 2: its own. But if it can align well with the
[16:39] Speaker 2: sun and to the degree to which it is aligned
[16:41] Speaker 2: with the sun, it will capture.
[16:43] Speaker 1: The light that comes from the sun and reveal it
[16:45] Speaker 1: to the earth.
[16:47] Speaker 2: If the moon is misaligned, the only part of the
[16:52] Speaker 2: moon that shines is the part that is aligned to
[16:54] Speaker 2: the sun. If it goes in disalignment, it will create
[16:58] Speaker 2: an image that was not the intention of the sun.
[17:01] Speaker 1: Are we together now? Praise the name of the Lord.
[17:04] Speaker 1: So this is very important. Now let's talk about travail
[17:07] Speaker 1: for this night.
[17:13] Speaker 2: Just to do my introduction. I hope we're learning so far.
[17:18] Speaker 2: So the word travail from Bible language is, it represents
[17:25] Speaker 2: the entire constraints, the entire disciplines, the entire sacrifices and
[17:32] Speaker 2: ordinances that are required to birth the glory of God.
[17:36] Speaker 1: And to manifest it in the life of a believer.
[17:38] Speaker 1: I'll take that again. Please listen. When we mention the.
[17:42] Speaker 2: Word travail, I don't want you to see it abstract
[17:45] Speaker 2: or to see the way the world thinks because the
[17:47] Speaker 2: world's idea of travail talks about pain that is unto loss.
[17:52] Speaker 1: Are we together now?
[17:53] Speaker 2: The world's idea of travail does not point victory.
[17:57] Speaker 1: It's proof of defeat. It's proof of ignorance.
[18:01] Speaker 2: So when we use terms, it's important we give them
[18:03] Speaker 2: a Bible definition so that those who are listening don't
[18:07] Speaker 2: make the mistake of thinking that we're talking travail as
[18:10] Speaker 2: it is with the world.
[18:13] Speaker 1: Are we together?
[18:14] Speaker 2: The travail as the world understands is largely a curse.
[18:17] Speaker 2: It's a product of ignorance. It's a proof of defeat.
[18:20] Speaker 2: But when we speak travail from a Bible standpoint, we
[18:24] Speaker 2: use that word to capture the entire constraints, the disciplines,
[18:31] Speaker 2: the sacrifices, and the ordinances that are required to birth
[18:37] Speaker 2: the glory of God and to make it manifest in
[18:40] Speaker 2: and through our lives.
[18:41] Speaker 1: Do you understand?
[18:43] Speaker 2: Yes, so that when we make these descriptions, we don't
[18:46] Speaker 2: mistake it.
[18:47] Speaker 1: It is very important.
[18:48] Speaker 2: So when we talk about travail, we're talking about the
[18:51] Speaker 2: constraints that you will have to and need to go through.
[18:55] Speaker 2: The disciplines that you will submit yourself to.
[18:58] Speaker 1: Are we together?
[19:00] Speaker 2: The temporary inconveniences if need be. The sacrifices and the
[19:05] Speaker 2: ordinances you have to keep.
[19:07] Speaker 1: In order to birth and to manifest the glory of God.
[19:11] Speaker 1: Romans chapter 8 please. From verse 8 and 19. Here's
[19:14] Speaker 1: what it says.
[19:15] Speaker 2: For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time.
[19:19] Speaker 1: Romans chapter 8, 18 and 19. 18, 1, 8 and 19.
[19:21] Speaker 4: I reckon.
[19:25] Speaker 2: That the sufferings, the constraints of this present time.
[19:30] Speaker 1: It says they are not worthy. Are we together? Yes.
[19:35] Speaker 2: To be compared with the glory. You see that word again.
[19:39] Speaker 2: The glory that shall be revealed.
[19:41] Speaker 1: Where? In us.
[19:43] Speaker 2: There is a glory that should be revealed in us.
[19:46] Speaker 2: A dimension of wisdom to be revealed in us.
[19:49] Speaker 1: A dimension.
[19:50] Speaker 2: Of power a dimension of influence are we together now
[19:53] Speaker 2: that should be revealed in us and the bible says
[19:56] Speaker 2: until that happens.
[19:58] Speaker 1: We reckon we come to.
[19:59] Speaker 2: Terms with the fact that the sufferings the constraints He's
[20:06] Speaker 2: giving a word of comfort that regardless what you are
[20:09] Speaker 2: going through, it is leading you somewhere. The birthing and
[20:12] Speaker 2: the manifestation of the glory of God. It says for
[20:15] Speaker 2: the endless expectation, verse 19, of creation awaits the manifestation
[20:21] Speaker 2: of the sons of God. One of the renditions will
[20:23] Speaker 2: say creation is waiting for the sons to reveal who
[20:28] Speaker 2: they truly are. Very powerful rendition. So there are constraints
[20:34] Speaker 2: on the path to birth in glory. We call that
[20:38] Speaker 2: the travail. John chapter 16 and verse 21. Jesus was
[20:42] Speaker 2: making a very profound statement.
[20:44] Speaker 1: 16, 21. John chapter 16. Here's what he says.
[20:48] Speaker 2: He says, a woman, when she's in travail, she said
[20:54] Speaker 2: had sorrow. He's describing a woman in travail. He says,
[20:58] Speaker 2: because her hour is come. That means certain constraints is
[21:05] Speaker 2: not proof that you are failing.
[21:07] Speaker 1: It's proof that you are seizing. It's an indication in
[21:10] Speaker 1: the spirit. Are we together?
[21:13] Speaker 2: He's saying that a woman who is about to give birth,
[21:18] Speaker 2: it is not unusual for her to sorrow.
[21:20] Speaker 1: She will cry, she will shout, she will weep, she
[21:23] Speaker 1: will say all kinds of things.
[21:25] Speaker 2: But the Bible says because her hour has come, But
[21:27] Speaker 2: as soon as she delivers and she delivers her vision,
[21:31] Speaker 2: her child, that glory is revealed in her. The Bible
[21:34] Speaker 2: says the joy that stands before her on account of it,
[21:38] Speaker 2: she will remember no more the anguish. Let me speak
[21:41] Speaker 2: over someone. For a while, it's looked like the word
[21:44] Speaker 2: of God is not working. For a while, it looks
[21:47] Speaker 2: like enemies have an upper hand according to the things
[21:50] Speaker 2: that are happening in your life. They say whatever and
[21:53] Speaker 2: it looks like it's a self-manifesting prophecy. But let me
[21:56] Speaker 2: announce to you, you are in a season where God
[21:58] Speaker 2: is walking slowly but meticulously. And the end of that journey,
[22:04] Speaker 2: I tell you, is that the glory of God will
[22:06] Speaker 2: be revealed in your life.
[22:07] Speaker 4: Amen.
[22:08] Speaker 2: Some of you at the end of that glory you
[22:10] Speaker 2: will host an anointing. An anointing for a generation. Some
[22:14] Speaker 2: of you at the end of that journey you will
[22:16] Speaker 2: become captains over God's inheritance. Some of you at the
[22:20] Speaker 2: end of that journey he will trust you. Not just
[22:23] Speaker 2: with things. He will trust you with his program. There
[22:29] Speaker 2: are three levels of authority in the spirit. The first
[22:34] Speaker 2: level of authority is a test. It qualifies you for
[22:37] Speaker 2: the other two. The first level of authority in the
[22:40] Speaker 2: spirit is authority over things. Unfortunately, that's where people's attention is.
[22:48] Speaker 1: Money, material things.
[22:50] Speaker 2: When God gives you material things, you don't have true
[22:52] Speaker 2: authority yet.
[22:53] Speaker 1: It's a test.
[22:55] Speaker 2: The parable of the talents. It started with material things
[22:58] Speaker 2: and ended up.
[22:59] Speaker 1: With a kingdom. Are we together? Are we Bible students?
[23:04] Speaker 2: So the intention was to give them a kingdom, but
[23:07] Speaker 2: he started by giving them talents. Authority over things. Number two,
[23:15] Speaker 2: authority over territories. That's the second level of authority, over territories.
[23:23] Speaker 2: The third and the highest level of authority I know
[23:25] Speaker 2: as revealed from scripture is authority to steward God's programs.
[23:31] Speaker 2: So God can tell you this is my 10 year
[23:34] Speaker 2: plan for South Africa. And I'm putting you as a
[23:37] Speaker 2: steward over it. Is the highest and noblest level of
[23:41] Speaker 2: authority a man can command.
[23:44] Speaker 1: Not just wealth.
[23:45] Speaker 4: No.
[23:46] Speaker 1: You can have material things and not matter much in
[23:49] Speaker 1: the spirit. Are we together?
[23:53] Speaker 2: God can give you access to the two lift gates
[23:56] Speaker 2: of nations. And that is commendable. But when God can
[24:00] Speaker 2: trust you with his program. You see, the honor you
[24:04] Speaker 2: get from being trusted with God's program is nobody who
[24:08] Speaker 2: participates in that program will succeed in isolation to your contribution.
[24:13] Speaker 2: He will give you the honor of being at the epicenter.
[24:17] Speaker 2: The one who ignores you will do it to their detriment.
[24:20] Speaker 2: That's why he came to John. Because John was not
[24:23] Speaker 2: just having things. He was in the wilderness. But he
[24:27] Speaker 2: was a custodian of a program. And when he came,
[24:30] Speaker 2: he said, John said, no, no, no, I'm not worthy
[24:32] Speaker 2: to untie your shoe. He said, suffer it to be so.
[24:35] Speaker 2: I can't ignore you. I know what this stands in
[24:37] Speaker 2: the spirit. That of all the prophets that have come,
[24:40] Speaker 2: none of them has been trusted. Remember, Jeremiah, he said, see,
[24:45] Speaker 2: I have set you over kingdoms, over nations, but not.
[24:48] Speaker 1: Over a program. Hallelujah. Remember, I promised introduction, so let's, let's.
[24:58] Speaker 2: I receive grace to be focused in the name of
[24:59] Speaker 2: Jesus so that we just put that down.
[25:02] Speaker 1: Who is understanding this now? Yes.
[25:04] Speaker 2: So, now there are a few things that I want
[25:07] Speaker 2: us to understand. Number one is we need to understand
[25:11] Speaker 2: God's program. The concept of travail means little or nothing
[25:15] Speaker 2: to a man who.
[25:16] Speaker 1: Is ignorant as to God's prophetic program. Are we together?
[25:20] Speaker 2: Knowing then that travail captures the entire journey to birthing
[25:26] Speaker 2: and manifesting the glory of God. The starting point of
[25:29] Speaker 2: that journey is a thorough understanding of God's prophetic program.
[25:34] Speaker 1: There are many people who want to be used by God.
[25:37] Speaker 2: There are many people who want to see the glory
[25:39] Speaker 2: of God revealed in their lives. But they are not
[25:41] Speaker 2: even aware as to the fact that number one there
[25:44] Speaker 2: is a prophetic program.
[25:47] Speaker 1: And your relevance in the kingdom is not intrinsic.
[25:51] Speaker 2: It is dependent on your connection to God's prophetic program.
[25:55] Speaker 2: If God is moving left, whoever moves left too becomes
[25:58] Speaker 2: relevant in that generation. You don't have to be evil
[26:02] Speaker 2: to be out of relevance.
[26:03] Speaker 1: If God goes left and you.
[26:05] Speaker 2: Go right, immediately the grace to be relevant is no
[26:10] Speaker 2: longer in your life.
[26:11] Speaker 1: Because the grace follows his program. Is someone learning now?
[26:15] Speaker 2: So most people have not taken out time to really
[26:18] Speaker 2: understand God's program. Let me tell you, ladies and gentlemen,
[26:22] Speaker 2: God has an agenda for individuals. God has an agenda
[26:27] Speaker 2: for territories. God has an agenda for nations. At every
[26:33] Speaker 2: point in history, prophetically, God is executing something.
[26:37] Speaker 1: There is a script.
[26:38] Speaker 2: It's written already. There's what God is doing in South
[26:42] Speaker 2: Africa now. The ones who are relevant are those who
[26:46] Speaker 2: know how to bend to the ears, the heart of
[26:49] Speaker 2: God and receive what he wants to do now. God
[26:53] Speaker 2: is always moving but he's not doing the same thing.
[26:57] Speaker 2: Is someone learning now? God's prophetic program. He has a
[27:00] Speaker 2: program for you. He has a program for your family.
[27:05] Speaker 1: Believe me.
[27:06] Speaker 2: He has a program for South Africa. He has a
[27:09] Speaker 2: program for Southern Africa. He has a program for Africa.
[27:13] Speaker 2: He has a program for Europe. The relevance of men
[27:17] Speaker 2: in this kingdom and as per any dispensation is to
[27:20] Speaker 2: the degree to which they are able to align with
[27:23] Speaker 2: his prophetic program. Who understands this? That's the reason why
[27:27] Speaker 2: sometimes you find people who are unassuming. They do not
[27:31] Speaker 2: have the parameters that qualify to be great.
[27:34] Speaker 1: But because they.
[27:35] Speaker 2: Were foolish enough to disarm God's program and donated themselves,
[27:40] Speaker 2: they become the envies of that generation.
[27:44] Speaker 1: That's why the Bible.
[27:45] Speaker 2: Says our sufficiency is not of ourselves.
[27:48] Speaker 1: Are we together? God's prophetic program.
[27:53] Speaker 2: Now from a theological standpoint, there are two dimensions of
[27:56] Speaker 2: God's program. There is his general program as revealed in scripture.
[28:01] Speaker 2: That he desires that all men be saved. Soul winning
[28:04] Speaker 2: is not a special program of God. Anyone who is
[28:07] Speaker 2: in Christ should be involved in that.
[28:09] Speaker 1: Are we together?
[28:10] Speaker 2: Discipleship and territorial transformation. These ones are God's general program
[28:15] Speaker 2: as written in scripture. If you're a believer that has
[28:18] Speaker 2: been methodically mentored, you should be about this.
[28:22] Speaker 1: Soul winning is not for evangelists. Soul winning is for
[28:25] Speaker 1: everyone who loves the Lord. Are we together?
[28:28] Speaker 2: And desires to see that his heart, that desire when
[28:32] Speaker 2: you love a man, you seek to find out what
[28:35] Speaker 2: gives him joy and then you get invested in that agenda. Hallelujah.
[28:42] Speaker 1: Praise the name of the Lord.
[28:43] Speaker 2: But there's this unique prophetic program which is dispensational.
[28:50] Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
[28:51] Speaker 2: And this is the assignment of the apostles and the prophets.
[28:55] Speaker 2: Through the sacrifice of alignment to be able to bend
[28:58] Speaker 2: over backwards in the spirit and to understand what God
[29:02] Speaker 2: is doing as per every dispensation. In Ephesians chapter 3,
[29:06] Speaker 2: when you read from verse 3, Paul began to speak
[29:09] Speaker 2: and he said something profound. He says, how that by
[29:12] Speaker 2: revelation he made known unto me the mystery.
[29:15] Speaker 1: Of As I wrote afore in few words. Verse 4.
[29:18] Speaker 1: It says whereby when ye read.
[29:21] Speaker 2: Ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ.
[29:25] Speaker 1: Here it is now verse 5.
[29:26] Speaker 2: Which in other ages was not made known unto the
[29:30] Speaker 2: sons of men. As it is now revealed to his
[29:33] Speaker 2: holy apostles and prophets by the spirit. So there was
[29:39] Speaker 2: a body of spirit. knowledge that no other dispensation could capture.
[29:44] Speaker 2: I hope you know that even when Jesus walked upon
[29:46] Speaker 2: the earth, there were some things they could not understand
[29:49] Speaker 2: because Jesus did not teach them. They did not have
[29:52] Speaker 2: the spiritual capacity. They were too weighty for them to teach.
[29:56] Speaker 2: So Jesus said, I have many things to tell you.
[29:59] Speaker 2: He says, but as it stands now, based on your
[30:02] Speaker 2: spiritual construct, you cannot bear them now. Those things they
[30:05] Speaker 2: could not bear was what Paul began to teach. Are
[30:11] Speaker 2: we together now? That body of knowledge that was too
[30:14] Speaker 2: heavy for the disciples, Paul. That was why when Peter
[30:26] Speaker 2: listened to Paul, he listened again, listened again. Jesus told
[30:33] Speaker 2: us he would die, but we really did not understand why.
[30:38] Speaker 2: And we really did not understand the dynamics. So when
[30:41] Speaker 2: Paul came, he said it was not Jesus who died alone.
[30:44] Speaker 2: We also died in him. Nobody could teach us that.
[30:48] Speaker 2: We call it the Pauline revelations. It was Paul who
[30:53] Speaker 2: said we are raised up with him. Jesus never made
[30:55] Speaker 2: that statement. We didn't know that we've been raised up.
[31:00] Speaker 2: We didn't know we're seated. We didn't even know what
[31:03] Speaker 2: we were above. It was Paul who taught us. It
[31:06] Speaker 2: was Paul who stratified the gifts of the Spirit.
[31:08] Speaker 4: Amen.
[31:09] Speaker 2: Are we together now? He brought order to the church.
[31:12] Speaker 2: We never knew it was called word of knowledge. We
[31:16] Speaker 2: just knew that it was a manifestation of the spirit
[31:19] Speaker 2: of God. I'm showing you how the glory of God
[31:21] Speaker 2: revealed through a man. It was captured in epistles. Paul
[31:25] Speaker 2: had to make defense of this. He said, listen, when
[31:28] Speaker 2: you listen to my teachings, they are difficult, but do
[31:30] Speaker 2: not take me to be a controversial person. It was
[31:33] Speaker 2: by revelation. I was made a dispensational revelation. And he
[31:38] Speaker 2: made me a custodian of it. We never knew that faith, hope,
[31:46] Speaker 2: and love work together. We never knew that the greatest
[31:50] Speaker 2: of the three was love. We know that God is love,
[31:52] Speaker 2: but it was Paul who gave us that arrangement. Imagine
[31:55] Speaker 2: learning God without the epistles. You see that now? So
[32:00] Speaker 2: the gospels give you the foundation, but the superstructure is
[32:05] Speaker 2: based on the epistles. It was Paul that Jesus just
[32:11] Speaker 2: told us when a spirit leaves a man, it goes
[32:13] Speaker 2: around and then set to cast them. But Paul said
[32:16] Speaker 2: there is more. And Paul began to say, we wrestle
[32:19] Speaker 2: not against flesh and blood. He arranged everything for us.
[32:23] Speaker 1: It was, are we together now?
[32:26] Speaker 2: So I'm digressing like that to let you know that
[32:30] Speaker 2: When you do not understand God's dispensational program, you can
[32:36] Speaker 2: be a sincere Christian, but there are certain dimensions of
[32:40] Speaker 2: glory you cannot host and you cannot birth.
[32:42] Speaker 1: Who understands me so far?
[32:46] Speaker 2: The reason why God is doing what he's doing in
[32:49] Speaker 2: South Africa, and Dunsin mentioned that, I sense that there
[32:52] Speaker 2: is a desire. I sense that there is a prophetic program.
[32:57] Speaker 2: And people are beginning to come into that realization Are
[33:01] Speaker 2: we together now? Beyond technological advancement... There is a prophetic program...
[33:07] Speaker 2: And people are receiving it.
[33:10] Speaker 2: And in the name of Jesus... I'm praying for you...
[33:13] Speaker 2: That God will give you a thorough understanding... Of what
[33:16] Speaker 2: he's doing in South Africa... What he's doing in Southern Africa...
[33:20] Speaker 2: That you will not be at a loss... In the
[33:23] Speaker 2: name of Jesus Christ.
[33:26] Speaker 1: Please be seated.
[33:27] Speaker 2: So you must have a thorough understanding... God has an agenda,
[33:33] Speaker 2: a prophetic agenda. Do you know, every act of deliverance
[33:36] Speaker 2: in the Bible, every act of, you know, prophetic intervention,
[33:41] Speaker 2: every time God raised someone, it was an ongoing process
[33:45] Speaker 2: to fulfill that agenda. From Genesis to Revelation, the stories
[33:49] Speaker 2: are connected. Every deliverance was for a cause. Everything God did,
[33:54] Speaker 2: whether he brought manna, whether he brought deliverance, whatever he did,
[33:58] Speaker 2: it was ultimately with respect to his agenda. The surprising thing,
[34:03] Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen, is that Satan also has an agenda.
[34:07] Speaker 1: Oh, he does. Oh, he does.
[34:09] Speaker 2: He's that visionary. He has an agenda. Jesus gave us
[34:13] Speaker 2: slippers of his agenda. John 10, 10. Calls him the thief.
[34:17] Speaker 1: And that when he.
[34:18] Speaker 2: Comes, he comes to steal. He comes to kill. He
[34:21] Speaker 2: comes to destroy. Are we together? The Bible says, be sober.
[34:26] Speaker 2: It says, be vigilant for your adversary, the devil.
[34:31] Speaker 1: Like a roaring lion, he runs to and fro, seeking
[34:35] Speaker 1: whom he may devour. It says you are of your
[34:40] Speaker 1: father the devil and his will. He has a vision.
[34:43] Speaker 1: He has a script. And there are men who execute it.
[34:48] Speaker 1: The Bible calls them wicked and unreasonable people. It says
[34:52] Speaker 1: for not all men have faith. Who is learning?
[34:54] Speaker 2: Praise the name of the Lord. So God has an agenda.
[34:58] Speaker 2: And Satan has an agenda. Every attack of Satan on
[35:03] Speaker 2: the saints is a progressive attempt to actualize that agenda.
[35:08] Speaker 1: From sickness to defeat to failure. Are we together? It's
[35:12] Speaker 1: a script. The gradual and.
[35:16] Speaker 2: Progressive decline of your family is not something Satan is
[35:19] Speaker 2: thinking about.
[35:20] Speaker 1: It was planned. And it's up to you to understand
[35:24] Speaker 1: how to rise. My goodness. It's up to you to
[35:27] Speaker 1: say no and to.
[35:28] Speaker 2: Understand that God has an agenda. And to rise and
[35:32] Speaker 2: stay the hands of darkness. Most people think Satan just
[35:36] Speaker 2: goes around and then he just invents impulsively what to
[35:41] Speaker 2: do with you.
[35:42] Speaker 4: No.
[35:43] Speaker 1: No.
[35:43] Speaker 2: There is a 20 year plan for South Africa. There
[35:46] Speaker 2: is a 30 year plan for South Africa. There is
[35:48] Speaker 2: a 20 year plan for your family. He is that visionary.
[35:52] Speaker 2: God also has an agenda. That from the foundations of
[35:56] Speaker 2: the earth, the lamb was already slain. It was part
[35:59] Speaker 2: of the agenda. Who is understanding me so far?
[36:03] Speaker 1: Now, listen, listen. I hope we're learning. God's prophetic program.
[36:07] Speaker 2: It's important that all men be saved and that they
[36:11] Speaker 2: come unto the knowledge of the truth.
[36:13] Speaker 1: But in addition to.
[36:14] Speaker 2: That, that the glory of God be captured and revealed
[36:19] Speaker 2: through the saints and that by so doing, creation will
[36:23] Speaker 2: be compelled.
[36:24] Speaker 1: To bring glory to the name of the Lord. Do
[36:26] Speaker 1: you understand that? Hallelujah.
[36:31] Speaker 2: Now very quickly, The second thing we need to understand,
[36:35] Speaker 2: and I'm not sure I'll have the time, just permit me,
[36:38] Speaker 2: I'll just brush, but I wish I had the time
[36:40] Speaker 2: to do justice to it. You need to understand man.
[36:45] Speaker 2: When you understand God's program, the next port of call
[36:50] Speaker 2: in really understanding the subject of travail is to understand man.
[36:55] Speaker 2: Not just from an anthropological standpoint. Man as the zenith
[37:00] Speaker 2: of God's creation. There is an intrinsic design in man
[37:05] Speaker 2: that makes him the midwife between good and evil. That
[37:10] Speaker 2: God is looking for that same man and Satan is
[37:13] Speaker 2: looking for that same man.
[37:15] Speaker 1: Are we together now?
[37:17] Speaker 2: Now in our world, when both government and terrorists are
[37:21] Speaker 2: looking for the same person, you should find out that
[37:23] Speaker 2: there's something in that person. Am I right on that?
[37:26] Speaker 2: When the rich and the poor are looking for the
[37:28] Speaker 2: same person. When educated and uneducated are looking for the
[37:31] Speaker 2: same person. So the psalmist would say, when I consider
[37:38] Speaker 2: the heavens and all of those things, he says, what
[37:41] Speaker 2: is man that thou art mindful of? Nor the son
[37:45] Speaker 2: of man, Psalm 8, 5 and 6, that thou visitest him.
[37:49] Speaker 2: What is man? I usually would say, what is in man?
[37:52] Speaker 2: What did God put in man that you are mindful of?
[37:56] Speaker 2: That man is not even aware. Why is Satan so
[37:59] Speaker 2: interested in man? Why not rocks? Why not flowers? Why
[38:06] Speaker 2: not gold? Why not silver? What is it about man
[38:10] Speaker 2: that Satan can give up everything? He was willing to
[38:14] Speaker 2: give the world to the man Jesus and said just bow.
[38:17] Speaker 2: Not bow every day. Bow once and I'm satisfied. That
[38:21] Speaker 2: means there is something in man that men are not
[38:24] Speaker 2: aware of. Is someone learning now? Why is Satan about
[38:29] Speaker 2: your life? You need to find out and why does God.
[38:34] Speaker 1: Insist on you?
[38:36] Speaker 2: You hate him, you insult, you run, you backslide. He
[38:39] Speaker 2: still comes being vulnerable. What is he looking for? Did
[38:43] Speaker 2: he lose his creativity? Could he not create the heavens
[38:46] Speaker 2: and the earth again? After all, all power still belongs
[38:49] Speaker 2: to him. Why does God still insist on Joshua Selman?
[38:53] Speaker 2: Why does God still insist on South Africa? Why is
[38:57] Speaker 2: it that he does not leave you? You don't pray,
[38:59] Speaker 2: he still comes to you.
[39:06] Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
[39:09] Speaker 2: I have loved you with an everlasting love, he says.
[39:12] Speaker 2: And with my loving kindness, I have drawn you. How
[39:15] Speaker 2: about Satan? Ever determined. In spite of the fact that
[39:19] Speaker 2: he was going around the world, he still noted the
[39:22] Speaker 2: man Job. And he brought a case. He said, I'm
[39:25] Speaker 2: not satisfied going around the world. There's still one man
[39:28] Speaker 2: that I've not been able to penetrate ever. and i'm
[39:30] Speaker 2: not satisfied what exactly satan looking for is it barrenness
[39:35] Speaker 2: is it poverty you'll be mistaken to think all that
[39:38] Speaker 2: demonic investment is just to make you poor or to
[39:42] Speaker 2: make you barren Are we together?
[39:44] Speaker 1: Or to make you fail? Or to make you die? No.
[39:48] Speaker 1: The agenda is bigger than that.
[39:52] Speaker 2: The same way you think you'll be a waste of
[39:55] Speaker 2: your understanding to think all God wants you to do
[39:58] Speaker 2: is to be rich, to have a car, just to
[40:00] Speaker 2: have influence.
[40:01] Speaker 1: No. The agenda is bigger than that. Hallelujah.
[40:08] Speaker 2: Man occupies a very unique position. Genesis 1, 26 to 28.
[40:13] Speaker 2: And God said, let us make man, Adam, the man.
[40:19] Speaker 2: He's not just describing a male. He's describing the man, Adam.
[40:23] Speaker 2: Let us make him in our image and after our likeness.
[40:27] Speaker 2: The word image, charagma, it's a spiritual quality. Make that
[40:31] Speaker 2: man in the reflection of the Christ. And then number two,
[40:35] Speaker 2: to make him to function like us. to have our
[40:39] Speaker 2: physical attributes, and that our modus operandi becomes his modus operandi.
[40:44] Speaker 2: We create by speaking. He will create by speaking. We
[40:47] Speaker 2: walk by our hands. He will walk by his hands.
[40:50] Speaker 2: That's what it means to be in the likeness of God.
[40:52] Speaker 2: Is someone learning now? Then the Bible says that that
[40:56] Speaker 2: man was enthroned. He was given dominion. And you read
[40:59] Speaker 2: down to 28. Now, it's very important for you to know.
[41:03] Speaker 2: I want to tell you a few things about man. Again,
[41:06] Speaker 2: my apologies.
[41:07] Speaker 1: Number one.
[41:08] Speaker 2: Humans are the highest of God's creation. It's important for
[41:13] Speaker 2: you to know that. Isn't it amazing that as you watch,
[41:17] Speaker 2: whether it's natural world or science, look the way men
[41:20] Speaker 2: have been able to tame their world. You watch someone
[41:24] Speaker 2: who is flying a Boeing C787 or whatever kind of
[41:28] Speaker 2: aircraft and you look at the tiny pilot in front
[41:31] Speaker 2: and he's pushing that metal.
[41:33] Speaker 1: And it's been designed to obey.
[41:37] Speaker 2: That men have been able to build bridges in water,
[41:41] Speaker 2: to dredge rivers and seas and produce structures from it.
[41:46] Speaker 2: The dominion of man. Being exerted in creation. To use plants,
[41:51] Speaker 2: to make clothes. You know, all of the technological advancement.
[41:54] Speaker 2: Who would ever know, ladies and gentlemen, that you can
[41:57] Speaker 2: send a message 40,000 feet above sea level.
[42:02] Speaker 1: Are we together?
[42:03] Speaker 2: And in an instant it will get to someone's phone.
[42:05] Speaker 2: Simply because you have access to the internet.
[42:08] Speaker 1: Man for you. Man is the zenith of God's creation.
[42:12] Speaker 1: Number two. Every activity upon the earth is man dependent.
[42:17] Speaker 2: Please understand that. These are very strong foundations.
[42:21] Speaker 1: Every activity that happens upon the earth.
[42:24] Speaker 2: Cannot happen except and unless man comes into partnership with
[42:28] Speaker 2: a spirit. The activity of destruction cannot happen independent of
[42:33] Speaker 2: the participation of man.
[42:35] Speaker 1: The activity of life.
[42:37] Speaker 2: And victory and dominion cannot happen outside of the participation
[42:42] Speaker 2: of man. So every activity upon the earth... Good or
[42:46] Speaker 2: bad depends on man.
[42:48] Speaker 1: Psalm 115 and verse 16.
[42:50] Speaker 2: The heaven of heavens belong to the Lord. But the
[42:53] Speaker 2: earth hath he given to the children of men. But
[42:56] Speaker 2: South Africa hath he given to the children of men.
[42:59] Speaker 4: Hallelujah.
[43:02] Speaker 2: Number three, both God and Satan require men for the
[43:07] Speaker 2: execution of their program.
[43:09] Speaker 1: This is very important.
[43:10] Speaker 2: Both God and Satan require men for the successful execution
[43:17] Speaker 2: of their program. Satan is as powerful as the man
[43:23] Speaker 2: willing to partner with him.
[43:26] Speaker 1: Listen to that.
[43:28] Speaker 2: Satan's power is derived from the availability of one man
[43:32] Speaker 2: on earth. For as long as there is one man,
[43:36] Speaker 2: he can manipulate authority and met.
[43:39] Speaker 1: Out wickedness upon the earth. Are we together?
[43:44] Speaker 2: Ezekiel chapter 22 and verse 30, I sought for a man.
[43:49] Speaker 2: I sought for a man. Ezekiel 22 and verse 30,
[43:53] Speaker 2: I sought for a man. Who will stand in the gap.
[43:58] Speaker 2: Are we together?
[43:59] Speaker 1: And Ezekiel chapter 22.
[44:02] Speaker 2: Ezekiel 22 and verse 30.
[44:07] Speaker 1: I sought for a man. Thank you.
[44:11] Speaker 2: Who should make up the hedge and stand in the
[44:14] Speaker 2: gap before me for the land that I should not
[44:16] Speaker 2: destroy it. But I found none. Tonight God has men.
[44:20] Speaker 2: I say it prophetically. Tonight God has found men. Amen.
[44:24] Speaker 2: God will never be in want of men over South Africa.
[44:28] Speaker 2: His program will never be aborted nor stalled as a
[44:31] Speaker 2: result of lack of men. You believe that, shout amen.
[44:35] Speaker 2: Someone say, I am available. Like you are serious, say,
[44:39] Speaker 2: I am available.
[44:40] Speaker 1: I am available.
[44:43] Speaker 4: Hallelujah.
[44:45] Speaker 2: My life changed the day I discovered that as mighty
[44:48] Speaker 2: and invincible as God is, he's made himself vulnerable to
[44:52] Speaker 2: my contribution.
[44:53] Speaker 4: Hmm.
[44:56] Speaker 2: That God can do without me but he's chosen by
[44:58] Speaker 2: his mercy to make me a partner. The Bible calls
[45:03] Speaker 2: us co-laborers.
[45:05] Speaker 1: It's a very powerful statement.
[45:07] Speaker 2: It says partakers of the heavenly calling. It's a heavenly
[45:10] Speaker 2: calling but we are partakers of it. That means imbued
[45:14] Speaker 2: in anything it is God and me. It is the
[45:17] Speaker 2: spirit and the bride. The word never comes. Miracles never come.
[45:21] Speaker 2: A great destiny never comes just because the spirit wants
[45:25] Speaker 2: it so. The spirit wanted the bones in Ezekiel's valley
[45:28] Speaker 2: to be an army but nothing could happen provided it.
[45:32] Speaker 1: Was still the spirit alone until he found a man.
[45:35] Speaker 2: The man prophesied as the spirit commanded and there.
[45:38] Speaker 1: Was a sound.
[45:39] Speaker 4: Hallelujah.
[45:41] Speaker 2: The day of Pentecost, 3,000 souls happened because of the
[45:45] Speaker 2: spirit and men. There was a man who declared the
[45:49] Speaker 2: intent of the spirit and 3,000 people came.
[45:53] Speaker 1: Are we together? Listen, it's important for you.
[45:56] Speaker 2: To redefine yourself in light of the honor God has
[45:59] Speaker 2: given you. He can do without us. He has the
[46:02] Speaker 2: power to raise up stones. But he has chosen that
[46:06] Speaker 2: if he wants to birth his prophetic program in South Africa,
[46:09] Speaker 2: he is patient enough till he finds you. He is
[46:12] Speaker 2: vulnerable enough till he finds you. Who is learning now?
[46:18] Speaker 2: So the next time you say God can do without you,
[46:20] Speaker 2: you are right. But from a prophetic standpoint, he's decided
[46:24] Speaker 2: by covenants to incorporate you in his program. Meaning if
[46:28] Speaker 2: you tell God no, he will still move, but it
[46:31] Speaker 2: will take a long time to find another person. It's
[46:34] Speaker 2: the reason why God would prefer to clean, fix, work on.
[46:38] Speaker 1: He's patient. He's cheaper than starting afresh. Who is following? Oh,
[46:50] Speaker 1: it's an honor that God has given.
[46:52] Speaker 2: Us that for any prophetic program to happen in South
[46:56] Speaker 2: Africa and across the nations of the earth, this program,
[47:01] Speaker 2: God decided to bless South Africa this much, but he
[47:04] Speaker 2: needed men.
[47:06] Speaker 1: Else he would have stopped as prophecy. Who is learning now?
[47:09] Speaker 2: A few minutes before I came up, we received the
[47:11] Speaker 2: ministry of Minister Dunsin, the spirit of God through a man.
[47:17] Speaker 1: Are we together?
[47:18] Speaker 4: Yes.
[47:20] Speaker 2: The songs came from the spirit, but they were arranged
[47:23] Speaker 2: by intelligence and the cooperation of a man and the
[47:26] Speaker 2: diligence of a man and the discipline of a man.
[47:30] Speaker 1: Are we together?
[47:31] Speaker 2: Now listen, if you do not understand this about men,
[47:36] Speaker 2: you will keep saying, Lord, why don't you move? And
[47:38] Speaker 2: God says, because you are not ready for me to move.
[47:42] Speaker 2: Revivals have no dates. Revival happens the day the vessels
[47:46] Speaker 2: are ready. Hear what I say.
[47:51] Speaker 1: The day the vessel is ready, the move can begin.
[47:55] Speaker 2: So the delay in time is not God's desire to delay.
[47:59] Speaker 2: It's the slow pace of spiritual evolution from the vessels
[48:04] Speaker 2: that need to be used. If you understand me, we
[48:07] Speaker 2: are building up to the subject of travail. Else you
[48:11] Speaker 2: will just laugh over it, travail, and then live with
[48:13] Speaker 2: nothing constructive in your mind. You have to understand God's program.
[48:18] Speaker 2: Then you have to understand man's role that God can
[48:22] Speaker 2: do without us. And yet by covenant, he's kept us
[48:25] Speaker 2: at the epicenter of his program. that if the man
[48:32] Speaker 2: of God decides to say now, Lord, I don't love
[48:35] Speaker 2: you again, his program will continue, but there will be
[48:38] Speaker 2: a blow to that program.
[48:40] Speaker 1: It's an uncomfortable statement.
[48:42] Speaker 2: It sounds like flattery that one man can reject God
[48:46] Speaker 2: and it can affect his program.
[48:47] Speaker 1: Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
[48:49] Speaker 2: Yes, sir.
[48:50] Speaker 1: It can.
[48:51] Speaker 2: By his intelligence, he will route a way, but because
[48:54] Speaker 2: he's invested time, energy, resources, and confidence in one man,
[48:58] Speaker 2: he will have to find another man is the reason
[49:03] Speaker 2: why the angel was patient to answer every one of
[49:06] Speaker 2: Mary's questions.
[49:14] Speaker 1: Hallelujah. You thought you'd be silly and say you are
[49:18] Speaker 1: not even counting it a privilege? Let me go back.
[49:21] Speaker 4: No.
[49:22] Speaker 2: Men are that valuable to God. It's only men who
[49:25] Speaker 2: don't value men. But spirits value men. One of the
[49:34] Speaker 2: elements of a transformed mind is value for human dignity.
[49:38] Speaker 2: Did you hear what I said? Let me encourage you.
[49:42] Speaker 2: those who are leaders and politicians, one of the elements
[49:45] Speaker 2: of a transformed mind is value for human dignity. If
[49:50] Speaker 2: you do not have value for human dignity, there is
[49:53] Speaker 2: a level of transformation you have not attained.
[49:55] Speaker 4: Hallelujah.
[50:05] Speaker 2: Both God and Satan require men for their program. And
[50:10] Speaker 2: I'll tell you this, The manifestation of God's desire and
[50:17] Speaker 2: prophetic program depends on the willingness and the alignment of men.
[50:24] Speaker 1: It does not just depend on prophecy. It depends on
[50:28] Speaker 1: the willingness.
[50:30] Speaker 2: That means if God wants to move over South Africa,
[50:34] Speaker 2: and you are the one he wants to use, and
[50:36] Speaker 2: you tell him no, you obstruct the program. You don't
[50:40] Speaker 2: stop the program, but you obstruct the program. For every
[50:44] Speaker 2: time you tell God no, a soul pays the price.
[50:49] Speaker 2: For every time you tell God no, a prophet's destiny
[50:53] Speaker 2: is tampered by your disalignment. An apostle's destiny is tampered
[50:57] Speaker 2: by your disalignment.
[50:59] Speaker 1: Are we together now?
[51:00] Speaker 2: For every time a mother says no to train her child,
[51:04] Speaker 2: she's corrupted the potential for a prophet to rise. For
[51:08] Speaker 2: every time a businessman gets lazy and does not go
[51:11] Speaker 2: to work to bring the resources for kingdom come, He's
[51:14] Speaker 2: interrupted something. Everything in man's activity is ultimately promoting or
[51:20] Speaker 2: interrupting God's program. If you understand this, it will sponsor
[51:24] Speaker 2: your diligence. The idea is not just to make money
[51:28] Speaker 2: or to have children or to go to school. All
[51:31] Speaker 2: of those things are either leading towards sin. the birthing
[51:34] Speaker 2: of God's program or a way. So from a spiritual standpoint,
[51:38] Speaker 2: God is not interested whether you are an engineer or
[51:41] Speaker 2: architect or whatever. He's interested in whether your life is birthing.
[51:45] Speaker 1: His program or obstructing it.
[51:48] Speaker 6: That's it.
[51:48] Speaker 1: There are only two categories in the spirit.
[51:51] Speaker 2: Those who are about the birthing and the manifestation of
[51:55] Speaker 2: God's glory, God's program, and those who are intentionally or
[52:00] Speaker 2: unintentionally obstructing it.
[52:04] Speaker 1: Who is learning?
[52:06] Speaker 2: So the worshiper who brings a song and blesses the
[52:10] Speaker 2: whole globe has moved them closer. He's provided the tools
[52:14] Speaker 2: and the resources that can help them to birth God's glory.
[52:18] Speaker 1: Are we together?
[52:18] Speaker 2: The man who sponsors God's program, the pastor who remains
[52:22] Speaker 2: diligent with integrity and Even though with options to compromise
[52:26] Speaker 2: and he chooses as an act of his will to remain.
[52:29] Speaker 1: You are not remaining for yourself.
[52:31] Speaker 2: Your remaining is your commitment, your contribution to seeing that
[52:35] Speaker 2: God's program is not tampered with. Your coming to church
[52:39] Speaker 2: that every time I say walker, if you omit coming to.
[52:42] Speaker 1: Church is beyond bringing the numbers down.
[52:45] Speaker 2: Your presence, your significance, the role that has been allotted
[52:49] Speaker 2: to you is affecting the overall picture. When you look
[52:53] Speaker 2: at your life from the lens of one who advances
[52:56] Speaker 2: the program or retrogresses the program, you will become committed,
[53:01] Speaker 2: not religiously. Now you see how relevant you are. Imagine
[53:07] Speaker 2: the Bible without Paul. Imagine the Bible without Peter. We
[53:12] Speaker 2: are able to enjoy a rich, holistic capture of Scripture
[53:16] Speaker 2: because men realized that they were that important. To the
[53:21] Speaker 2: point that even when Paul was in prison, he would
[53:25] Speaker 2: not think about himself. Look him writing letters and warning
[53:28] Speaker 2: people in the prison. I hear you guys are misbehaving.
[53:31] Speaker 2: I'm in prison now, but I'm soon going to come out.
[53:33] Speaker 2: And as soon as I come out, there's a conference
[53:36] Speaker 2: that will happen there. This is a man who understands
[53:38] Speaker 2: that God's program depends on him. I want you to
[53:41] Speaker 2: make a very ambitious statement. Say, God can do without me.
[53:47] Speaker 2: But he has chosen me. To make me part of
[53:52] Speaker 2: his program. Say God can do without me. But he
[53:58] Speaker 2: has chosen to.
[54:00] Speaker 1: Use my gift, to use my life, to use my education,
[54:06] Speaker 1: to use my influence to promote his agenda.
[54:10] Speaker 2: Therefore, I am valuable. Therefore, I am useful. Therefore, I
[54:18] Speaker 2: am needed in the birthing of God's program.
[54:23] Speaker 1: Let me tell you this.
[54:24] Speaker 2: Never you allow some naysayer downplay on your relevance. The
[54:31] Speaker 2: question is not whether you are the richest or the poorest.
[54:34] Speaker 2: The question is not whether you are the most educated
[54:37] Speaker 2: or not. The question is not whether you are the
[54:39] Speaker 2: most handsome or not. The question is who is on
[54:42] Speaker 2: the Lord's side. Who is on the Lord's side? Relevance
[54:51] Speaker 2: in the kingdom. is not with respect to personal ambition.
[54:55] Speaker 2: It's with respect to.
[54:56] Speaker 1: The degree to which your life contributes to the birthing
[55:01] Speaker 1: and the manifestation of God's glory.
[55:04] Speaker 2: You understand this so far? Alright, so now, I can
[55:09] Speaker 2: safely introduce this.
[55:20] Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
[55:21] Speaker 4: Hallelujah.
[55:22] Speaker 2: Praise the name of the Lord. So make sure you
[55:27] Speaker 2: don't just get excited. I've said three things. Number one,
[55:30] Speaker 2: I define for you glory. And I told you that
[55:32] Speaker 2: God's desire is that his glory in its multifaceted dimensions
[55:37] Speaker 2: be revealed through the saints.
[55:39] Speaker 1: And that when that happens, God is glorified. You still remember?
[55:42] Speaker 2: Number two, we then agreed that God has a prophetic program.
[55:46] Speaker 2: And that the subject of travailing to birth the glory
[55:50] Speaker 2: has little or no value to one who does not
[55:52] Speaker 2: have a thorough understanding of God's program and that God's
[55:57] Speaker 2: program generally is that all men be saved and they
[55:59] Speaker 2: come unto the knowledge of the truth, but that God
[56:02] Speaker 2: has unique prophetic and dispensational programs for individuals, families, nations.
[56:08] Speaker 1: And territories. Are we together? He has a program at
[56:11] Speaker 1: every point in time.
[56:13] Speaker 2: And that your relevance in any dispensation is connected to
[56:16] Speaker 2: your degree of alignment to the birthing of that program.
[56:20] Speaker 2: And then number three, we said you have to understand
[56:23] Speaker 2: man as the zenith of God's creation. That man is
[56:26] Speaker 2: the midwife between good and evil. Man is the midwife.
[56:31] Speaker 2: between the advancement of God's prophetic program and the delay
[56:35] Speaker 2: or the obstruction of it. And that while God is
[56:38] Speaker 2: able to do without us, he's made himself so vulnerable
[56:42] Speaker 2: that his program depends on our obedience, depends on our participation.
[56:48] Speaker 2: He calls us co-laborers. He calls us partakers of the
[56:52] Speaker 2: heavenly call.
[56:54] Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
[56:54] Speaker 4: Hallelujah.
[56:55] Speaker 2: That means when you come to that consciousness and receive
[56:58] Speaker 2: it as an honor with humility, that I am relevant
[57:01] Speaker 2: for God's program to happen.
[57:03] Speaker 1: You don't receive it out of pride, but it is
[57:05] Speaker 1: the truth.
[57:08] Speaker 2: If Joshua Selman decides today to not be serious with God,
[57:11] Speaker 2: his program will still continue, but it will not be
[57:14] Speaker 2: as easy as it would have been with my contribution.
[57:18] Speaker 2: It is a hard work to align. Are we together?
[57:24] Speaker 1: Now, I'll introduce how destinies, how seasons.
[57:33] Speaker 2: And how prophetic programs are birthed. This is where we're
[57:37] Speaker 2: really going to. But we needed to put all those preambles.
[57:40] Speaker 2: How destinies, how seasons, and how prophetic programs are birthed.
[57:46] Speaker 2: I'm going to give you three keys very quickly. Philippians
[57:50] Speaker 2: chapter 2 and verse 13. This is a scripture that
[57:53] Speaker 2: I have learned and it's blessed my life. Here's what
[57:57] Speaker 2: the Bible says. For it is God which worketh in you.
[58:04] Speaker 1: Take note. Both to will and to do.
[58:09] Speaker 4: Both to will and to do.
[58:11] Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
[58:11] Speaker 4: Hallelujah.
[58:19] Speaker 2: I'll tell you how destinies are birthed. I'm saying this
[58:22] Speaker 2: because there are people here who are wondering how can
[58:25] Speaker 2: I evolve to be the man of God God wants
[58:28] Speaker 2: me to be? How can I evolve? I've seen it
[58:31] Speaker 2: in my dream. Between Joseph the dreamer and Joseph the
[58:35] Speaker 2: prime minister.
[58:36] Speaker 1: There was a pathway. That's what I want to show
[58:39] Speaker 1: you now. Hallelujah.
[58:41] Speaker 2: Now listen, the Bible says from that scripture that it
[58:44] Speaker 2: is God.
[58:45] Speaker 1: Who works in men.
[58:46] Speaker 2: First to will his desire, then he empowers them to
[58:50] Speaker 2: do it. Meaning God is the initiator of every vision,
[58:55] Speaker 2: every prophetic program. When God wants to produce a worshiper,
[59:00] Speaker 2: when God wants to produce a man of God, a
[59:04] Speaker 2: kingdom financier, when God wants to produce, I call them
[59:07] Speaker 2: an apostolic Christian, the first thing he gives you is
[59:12] Speaker 2: a gift called dissatisfaction.
[59:17] Speaker 1: Now listen, a.
[59:20] Speaker 2: Man who has not received that gift cannot be at
[59:24] Speaker 2: the cutting edge of travailing. Dissatisfaction is a mystery in
[59:28] Speaker 2: the spirit.
[59:29] Speaker 1: It is a gift.
[59:30] Speaker 2: It's a cry for more. It's a hunger for greater.
[59:35] Speaker 2: The Bible says it is God who is at work.
[59:37] Speaker 2: That dissatisfaction that when you saw a program and they
[59:42] Speaker 2: were sick people and they left without being healed and
[59:45] Speaker 2: you went back, that thing you see is a gift.
[59:48] Speaker 2: When you see people poor and you go back home
[59:51] Speaker 2: and say, but life can be better than this. Every
[59:54] Speaker 2: time you begin to will an idea that it is engineered,
[59:59] Speaker 2: it is God who is at work in you. We're
[1:00:05] Speaker 2: discussing the dynamics of travail now. Nobody ever emerges until
[1:00:10] Speaker 2: it starts with this holy anger, this provocation. It will
[1:00:16] Speaker 2: later evolve into something more constructive.
[1:00:19] Speaker 1: But it starts with a dissatisfaction.
[1:00:22] Speaker 2: Why do I see children suffering and something.
[1:00:25] Speaker 1: Begins to work in my heart? It is God who
[1:00:28] Speaker 1: is at work in you.
[1:00:30] Speaker 2: Why is it that every time you see marriages destroyed,
[1:00:33] Speaker 2: you go back and cry.
[1:00:34] Speaker 1: And take it personal?
[1:00:36] Speaker 2: The fact that it's not happening to everyone tells you
[1:00:39] Speaker 2: you've been singled out by prophecy.
[1:00:41] Speaker 1: There is a mandate. It's... Hallelujah. Listen.
[1:00:49] Speaker 2: Before a woman gets pregnant, don't tempt me to go
[1:00:52] Speaker 2: into tomorrow's script. Let's leave tomorrow's script for tomorrow's script.
[1:00:55] Speaker 2: The first thing that happens is a wooing for a relationship.
[1:01:00] Speaker 2: And then the relationship leads to marriage. Then the marriage
[1:01:03] Speaker 2: leads to intimacy. Then the intimacy will produce a seed.
[1:01:09] Speaker 1: Am I right on that?
[1:01:14] Speaker 2: I tell you how God calls men He sets a
[1:01:18] Speaker 2: burning bush. And it keeps burning until it gets your attention.
[1:01:26] Speaker 2: For someone, that bush burns in business. And even though
[1:01:31] Speaker 2: you started thinking you would be a pastor, but every
[1:01:33] Speaker 2: time you incline towards business, it is God, the one
[1:01:37] Speaker 2: who allocates that hunger.
[1:01:40] Speaker 1: It's an expression. Please listen to this.
[1:01:43] Speaker 2: I came to help someone. I came to show you
[1:01:46] Speaker 2: how this thing works. Most parents do not detect this
[1:01:53] Speaker 2: in children. Why is the child always singing? Always singing.
[1:01:59] Speaker 2: It's not because he loves songs.
[1:02:01] Speaker 1: It is God who is at work. There is a
[1:02:05] Speaker 1: worshiper there. There is prophecy revolving around the worshiper.
[1:02:10] Speaker 2: But what happens is the spirit of the Antichrist moves sometimes.
[1:02:13] Speaker 1: Through parents and we kill that vision. Listen to me.
[1:02:19] Speaker 2: Why is it that every time you watch a man
[1:02:22] Speaker 2: of God, deep calls unto deep? It's beyond admiration.
[1:02:26] Speaker 4: No.
[1:02:26] Speaker 2: No.
[1:02:27] Speaker 1: It is because you have seen a portrait. God is
[1:02:30] Speaker 1: using that portrait to show you where he's taking you to.
[1:02:37] Speaker 1: Now listen, listen. Listen to me.
[1:02:42] Speaker 2: Some of you are in that phase right now. You
[1:02:57] Speaker 2: cannot explain the cause of the dissatisfaction, but it has
[1:03:02] Speaker 2: refused to go.
[1:03:03] Speaker 1: It is because it is eternal.
[1:03:06] Speaker 2: You thought school will solve it, and God was patient
[1:03:09] Speaker 2: for five years till you finished. As soon as you
[1:03:12] Speaker 2: obtained your certificate, you found out it was still there.
[1:03:15] Speaker 1: It didn't go anywhere.
[1:03:17] Speaker 2: Listen, when God, he can use a vision like Joseph.
[1:03:24] Speaker 2: But sometimes he can use desire. Sometimes he can use
[1:03:28] Speaker 2: a voice like Samuel. But please hear me. When Satan
[1:03:33] Speaker 2: wants to abort your destiny, he will do something to
[1:03:36] Speaker 2: your heart to.
[1:03:38] Speaker 1: Take for granted that feeling.
[1:03:42] Speaker 2: Many billionaires today will tell you, before they had their
[1:03:46] Speaker 2: first dollar, they just, they call it their passion. They
[1:03:49] Speaker 2: call it a zeal to make the world a better place.
[1:03:52] Speaker 2: The fact that not everybody has that zeal is.
[1:03:55] Speaker 1: Proof that you are being called out. Hallelujah. Now, what
[1:04:04] Speaker 1: do you think made Mary to keep herself a virgin?
[1:04:11] Speaker 1: You think she... They didn't have the opportunity to see men. No.
[1:04:15] Speaker 2: There was a hand that protected her even when out there.
[1:04:24] Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
[1:04:26] Speaker 2: Certain immunities in your life today, you are not prayerful
[1:04:30] Speaker 2: but you don't beg.
[1:04:32] Speaker 1: Even before you.
[1:04:32] Speaker 2: Understood the principles of favor, God seemed to have surrounded you.
[1:04:38] Speaker 1: Moses, don't be flattered.
[1:04:39] Speaker 2: You did not just get to the house of Pharaoh
[1:04:42] Speaker 2: because you are an invincible child. You have been protected
[1:04:45] Speaker 2: because there is prophecy. It is God who is at work.
[1:04:52] Speaker 2: Who is learning now? I just wanted to get this concept,
[1:04:55] Speaker 2: then we'll pray. We'll get this. I promise you we'll pray.
[1:04:58] Speaker 1: We need to get this.
[1:05:01] Speaker 2: Ah, that nudging of the spirit, it's a very deep,
[1:05:05] Speaker 2: it's the initiator.
[1:05:07] Speaker 1: Of the process of birthing the glory. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
[1:05:13] Speaker 2: So the little child sits down and is trying to
[1:05:16] Speaker 2: play with toys. And in his mind, he's building something.
[1:05:19] Speaker 2: Don't obstruct him. It is God who is at work.
[1:05:22] Speaker 2: Something is growing there. The young man, even without mentorship,
[1:05:29] Speaker 2: has a strong affinity to prayer.
[1:05:31] Speaker 1: It's not usual. It is God who is at work.
[1:05:34] Speaker 2: Because there is a prophetic ministry coming out of that man.
[1:05:38] Speaker 2: And so God initiated the process. The Bible says John
[1:05:42] Speaker 2: was filled with the Holy Ghost from.
[1:05:44] Speaker 1: His mother's womb.
[1:05:46] Speaker 2: What kind of ordination is that?
[1:05:47] Speaker 1: He needed it. And if God were to depend on
[1:05:50] Speaker 1: Zechariah and his mother, he would never become John who
[1:05:53] Speaker 1: ordains Jesus.
[1:05:54] Speaker 4: Amen.
[1:05:55] Speaker 1: And so God had to go ahead.
[1:05:59] Speaker 2: Now you begin to look at your life from the
[1:06:01] Speaker 2: lens of destiny and prophecy. Some of you had the
[1:06:05] Speaker 2: privilege to come from great families. Don't be flattered by
[1:06:09] Speaker 2: the privileges around you. Connect it to purpose immediately.
[1:06:13] Speaker 1: God gave you a certain level of inconvenience because your
[1:06:17] Speaker 1: assignment will need time.
[1:06:20] Speaker 2: And if he were to allow you to start looking
[1:06:22] Speaker 2: for money by yourself, you will be busy looking for
[1:06:24] Speaker 2: money and abort your destiny. So he gave you a
[1:06:27] Speaker 2: leverage so that he can get your attention.
[1:06:34] Speaker 1: It is God who is at work in us. Ask
[1:06:37] Speaker 1: any great man you know.
[1:06:39] Speaker 2: They will tell you, whether consciously or unconsciously, that they
[1:06:44] Speaker 2: remember those times when that seed came.
[1:06:49] Speaker 1: God dropped it through a dream. God dropped it as
[1:06:53] Speaker 1: you grew. The day you watched a man of God,
[1:06:56] Speaker 1: from that day you could not rest. It was like ministry, ministry.
[1:07:01] Speaker 1: And you're saying, but I don't want this.
[1:07:04] Speaker 2: Sometimes you find yourself as you read the Bible. When
[1:07:10] Speaker 2: you read the Bible, you suddenly find out you are
[1:07:12] Speaker 2: reading yourself. It suddenly changes from the book of Ruth.
[1:07:18] Speaker 2: To the book of you. You are reading yourself. Now
[1:07:23] Speaker 2: listen please.
[1:07:25] Speaker 1: You are not just reading the story of a woman
[1:07:27] Speaker 1: who went to Boaz. No.
[1:07:29] Speaker 2: You are reading a road map. That is showing you
[1:07:32] Speaker 2: your own destiny. The gift of dissatisfaction. Someone needs to
[1:07:40] Speaker 2: receive that gift tonight. The one who is not dissatisfied.
[1:07:46] Speaker 2: Will remain with status quo. And you will never see
[1:07:49] Speaker 2: that there is a higher and nobler prophetic call. I
[1:07:54] Speaker 2: heard your man of God talk about the time he
[1:07:56] Speaker 2: left Nigeria and came to South Africa. And for a
[1:07:59] Speaker 2: while he was involved in real estate and all of
[1:08:01] Speaker 2: that and he was doing well.
[1:08:03] Speaker 1: But that thing will not go.
[1:08:06] Speaker 2: Money does not solve that hung out. Relationship, nothing on
[1:08:11] Speaker 2: earth solves that hunger. Some of you, you are here,
[1:08:14] Speaker 2: you've been by your ordination. You should already be worshippers.
[1:08:20] Speaker 2: But as it stands now, you have a page, books
[1:08:24] Speaker 2: full of songs. But the reason why those songs cannot
[1:08:28] Speaker 2: bless the nation is because you have not respected that nudging.
[1:08:38] Speaker 1: The blessing of dissatisfaction. Now watch this.
[1:08:42] Speaker 2: This dissatisfaction draws you to the place of prayer. And
[1:08:48] Speaker 2: the place of intimacy. God does not say go and
[1:08:51] Speaker 2: pray for your destiny. No.
[1:08:53] Speaker 1: He plans the hunger.
[1:08:56] Speaker 2: Then he watches your response. Because he needs your will.
[1:09:02] Speaker 2: Through desire, a man, what separates a man?
[1:09:06] Speaker 1: Desire. He separates himself. Then he begins to intermeddle with wisdom.
[1:09:15] Speaker 1: So it drives you to go to God in prayer. Lord,
[1:09:18] Speaker 1: I don't understand what my life is about. But whilst
[1:09:22] Speaker 1: you are praying, intimacy begins. Let me tell you this.
[1:09:26] Speaker 2: In the place of intimacy, so dissatisfaction draws you to prayer.
[1:09:33] Speaker 2: And prayer likened to intimacy, a divine seed begins. Is
[1:09:38] Speaker 2: deposited in your spirit. The first thing you have is
[1:09:42] Speaker 2: not the seed. The first thing you have is the
[1:09:44] Speaker 2: luring to receive the seed. That dissatisfaction is not yet
[1:09:50] Speaker 2: the seed.
[1:09:51] Speaker 1: Are we together? The dissatisfaction is.
[1:09:54] Speaker 2: God proposing to you that a prophet can arise from you.
[1:09:58] Speaker 2: That an apostle can arise from you. That a worshiper
[1:10:01] Speaker 2: can arise from you. Now it depends on your response.
[1:10:05] Speaker 2: Your response should be to go to the place of prayer.
[1:10:08] Speaker 2: And begin to walk with God in the place of prayer.
[1:10:11] Speaker 2: If you stay in the place of prayer.
[1:10:13] Speaker 1: Hear me.
[1:10:13] Speaker 2: A seed is deposited in your spirit. That seed can
[1:10:18] Speaker 2: mean a new season. That seed can mean wisdom, it
[1:10:22] Speaker 2: can mean grace, whatever it is. Listen, the moment your
[1:10:27] Speaker 2: spirit receives it, you.
[1:10:29] Speaker 1: Are now pregnant with prophecy.
[1:10:34] Speaker 2: Now, as simple as what I'm saying is, there are
[1:10:37] Speaker 2: many people, unfortunately, they have not even, they don't need
[1:10:41] Speaker 2: travail because there's no seed. The hunger has been there
[1:10:47] Speaker 2: for 10 years. But God has been waiting. The bush
[1:10:51] Speaker 2: has been burning. Moses, you will never receive any seed,
[1:10:55] Speaker 2: any mandate until you come. Moses said, I will turn
[1:10:59] Speaker 2: aside and see this great sight. When Moses now came,
[1:11:04] Speaker 2: intimacy began. And in the place of intimacy, that seed,
[1:11:09] Speaker 2: he began to nurture.
[1:11:11] Speaker 1: The deliverer in him. Are we together? Until he would
[1:11:14] Speaker 1: later become a great deliverer. Hear me, ladies and gentlemen.
[1:11:19] Speaker 2: Tonight they are scattered in this auditorium and many who
[1:11:23] Speaker 2: have fallen online.
[1:11:24] Speaker 1: God is at work in you.
[1:11:27] Speaker 2: That's why some of you traveled from outside South Africa.
[1:11:30] Speaker 2: You did not travel just because you have transport. It
[1:11:33] Speaker 2: was a solemn assembly and your name was in that
[1:11:36] Speaker 2: register in the spirit.
[1:11:38] Speaker 1: You were drawn. You were drawn.
[1:11:43] Speaker 2: And for some of you, I hope you know the
[1:11:45] Speaker 2: first person God called was not Abraham. God called his
[1:11:49] Speaker 2: father Terah. But Terah and God respected him and now came.
[1:11:54] Speaker 2: If Abraham had refused, God would be patient and raise
[1:11:57] Speaker 2: another one. The angel refused to leave until Mary said,
[1:12:03] Speaker 2: be it unto me.
[1:12:07] Speaker 1: When did she receive the seed? When she agreed. When
[1:12:09] Speaker 1: she agreed. that this is God's prophetic program, and I
[1:12:13] Speaker 1: am the handmaiden. He said, behold the handmaiden of the Lord.
[1:12:17] Speaker 2: Someone needs to say, behold, oh God, behold, I am
[1:12:21] Speaker 2: the available vessel. I hear that you are looking for
[1:12:25] Speaker 2: mighty prophets and apostles in South Africa. There are already many,
[1:12:29] Speaker 2: but can I be enlisted among them? Behold the handmaiden
[1:12:33] Speaker 2: of the Lord. He says, be it unto me. This
[1:12:37] Speaker 2: is a critical part of your manifesting the glory of God.
[1:12:43] Speaker 2: A woman who, a man can be asking a woman
[1:12:46] Speaker 2: for a relationship and marriage for 20 years.
[1:12:49] Speaker 1: It is the day she tells him, yes, I want
[1:12:52] Speaker 1: to marry you.
[1:12:53] Speaker 2: That that relationship unto marriage has officially started.
[1:12:56] Speaker 1: Am I right on that?
[1:12:58] Speaker 2: The man can assume just because I've been around her
[1:13:01] Speaker 2: and I like her, it doesn't mean you will marry her.
[1:13:05] Speaker 2: There needs to be an answer. Because her father will
[1:13:08] Speaker 2: ask you.
[1:13:08] Speaker 1: Did she say yes? Well, technically, no. Did she say yes?
[1:13:17] Speaker 2: Many of you, like the bride of Christ, he's been
[1:13:20] Speaker 2: on your case for decades.
[1:13:22] Speaker 1: Tonight is the night to say yes. Yes. Not yes
[1:13:27] Speaker 1: to be saved. Yes.
[1:13:28] Speaker 2: Yes, to be part of that prophetic program. And yes,
[1:13:33] Speaker 2: will lead to the next thing. He will call you
[1:13:36] Speaker 2: to prayer. And in the place of prayer, the seed
[1:13:40] Speaker 2: will be sown in your spirit. There is a name
[1:13:43] Speaker 2: given to that seed. And that will be our discussion
[1:13:47] Speaker 2: for tomorrow. I'm going to be teaching you the mystery
[1:13:51] Speaker 2: of burdens. The name given to the seed that is received,
[1:14:01] Speaker 2: that child is called a burden.
[1:14:04] Speaker 1: It's a spiritual language. It's an expression. Listen, pay attention
[1:14:09] Speaker 1: to this.
[1:14:12] Speaker 2: The burden is likened to pregnancy. And the first thing
[1:14:20] Speaker 2: it does is to change you. it manipulates your life completely.
[1:14:26] Speaker 2: Like a woman who gets pregnant and all of a
[1:14:29] Speaker 2: sudden does not want oil, does not want this, wants
[1:14:32] Speaker 2: to eat smoked jollof rice. She is under the influence
[1:14:36] Speaker 2: of something she's carrying. The moment that seed enters you,
[1:14:40] Speaker 2: some relationships, you don't have to pray about them.
[1:14:43] Speaker 1: It begins to culture your behavior. Come on, women, talk
[1:14:47] Speaker 1: to me. Men don't understand it, but women, talk to me.
[1:14:52] Speaker 1: Talk to me. If you've seen a woman pregnant, are
[1:14:58] Speaker 1: we together?
[1:15:00] Speaker 2: Sometimes the pregnancy does not have to wait until it's
[1:15:03] Speaker 2: four or five months. All of a sudden, a strange
[1:15:07] Speaker 2: fever that cannot be explained.
[1:15:10] Speaker 1: And the husband says, you are joking.
[1:15:12] Speaker 3: Say, I'm pregnant.
[1:15:12] Speaker 1: I'm pregnant.
[1:15:14] Speaker 2: She goes to the hospital, her appetites are tamed immediately.
[1:15:18] Speaker 2: Her mood, everything, she remains under the influence of that child.
[1:15:25] Speaker 2: It will many times determine whether she will go out
[1:15:28] Speaker 2: or not. A believer who is careless and reckless, it's
[1:15:33] Speaker 2: not because he's not serious with God, it's because there
[1:15:35] Speaker 2: is nothing. He has not received the seed. When you
[1:15:39] Speaker 2: receive the seed while others are sleeping. You will be
[1:15:42] Speaker 2: awake praying. Because there is. It started with the gift
[1:15:48] Speaker 2: of dissatisfaction. And that drew you to the place of prayer.
[1:15:54] Speaker 2: And intimacy allowed for the seed of the spirit. And
[1:15:58] Speaker 2: from the day that seed lands in your life. You
[1:16:01] Speaker 2: cannot be yourself again. As powerful as the woman is.
[1:16:08] Speaker 2: The child can manipulate anything about her. He can literally
[1:16:13] Speaker 2: make her to cancel a trip because he will engineer
[1:16:17] Speaker 2: a discomfort that will force her to sit there. For
[1:16:24] Speaker 2: some of you, you are on a spiritual gestation period
[1:16:28] Speaker 2: right now. It's the reason why what others do, you
[1:16:31] Speaker 2: can't do. It's not because it is right or wrong.
[1:16:35] Speaker 2: It's because what you are carrying is weighty and what
[1:16:37] Speaker 2: you are carrying is heavy. Tomorrow we are going to
[1:16:41] Speaker 2: go to the book of Revelations and I will show
[1:16:44] Speaker 2: you the mystery of a woman. The Bible says a
[1:16:47] Speaker 2: woman was pregnant with a man child and when she
[1:16:51] Speaker 2: was about to give birth, a dragon showed up.
[1:16:56] Speaker 1: Leave that for tomorrow. Rise up on your feet. Rise
[1:17:00] Speaker 1: up on your feet. We have to.
[1:17:05] Speaker 1: Hallelujah. Have you learned anything tonight?
[1:17:13] Speaker 4: Hallelujah.
[1:17:17] Speaker 2: I desire the glory of God to be revealed in
[1:17:20] Speaker 2: and through my life. But that in revealing that glory,
[1:17:25] Speaker 2: I must be mindful of the fact that it.
[1:17:27] Speaker 1: Is God who is at work in me.
[1:17:31] Speaker 4: Amen.
[1:17:33] Speaker 2: God is at work in Samson, in David, in Ruth.
[1:17:38] Speaker 2: What do you think made Ruth to suddenly want to
[1:17:42] Speaker 2: be around Boaz?
[1:17:43] Speaker 1: This is beyond love. This is destiny. Destiny.
[1:17:49] Speaker 4: Destiny. Destiny. Destiny.
[1:17:55] Speaker 2: I look around and I see men and women. Some
[1:17:59] Speaker 2: of you are men of God. Some of you have
[1:18:02] Speaker 2: responded to that dissatisfaction. Some of you do not even
[1:18:05] Speaker 2: understand it. I'm giving you language and explanation tonight. That
[1:18:11] Speaker 2: restlessness in your spirit is not a demonic attack.
[1:18:16] Speaker 1: It's a gift. A prayer life is on its way. Imagine.
[1:18:22] Speaker 1: A prophetic destiny is on its way. Imagine. A deliverer
[1:18:28] Speaker 1: is on its way. Imagine. Hallelujah.
[1:18:32] Speaker 2: Praise the name of the Lord. Hopefully tomorrow, I will
[1:18:36] Speaker 2: challenge us and will trust God for grace to receive
[1:18:40] Speaker 2: the spirit of prayer and supplication. As soon as Zion travail,
[1:18:46] Speaker 2: she put forth a child. Lift your hands and give
[1:18:49] Speaker 2: Jesus praise. Thank him for everything you have heard tonight.
[1:18:56] Speaker 2: Thank him for the period of worship.
[1:19:01] Speaker 1: Hallelujah.
[1:19:02] Speaker 2: Our time is fast spent. Can I do an altar call?
[1:19:05] Speaker 2: Will it be fine to do an altar call? Please
[1:19:07] Speaker 2: keep standing everybody. I told you that God's will as
[1:19:11] Speaker 2: revealed in scripture is that all men be saved.
[1:19:13] Speaker 1: That man includes you.
[1:19:16] Speaker 2: It is impossible that out of the thousands of people
[1:19:20] Speaker 2: here gathered and the many following online, that there are
[1:19:23] Speaker 2: no people who desire to make it right with Jesus.
[1:19:27] Speaker 1: The first step when.
[1:19:29] Speaker 2: The Holy Spirit lures you is that you surrender all
[1:19:33] Speaker 2: and receive this gift of his life that is in
[1:19:36] Speaker 2: Christ Jesus.
[1:19:37] Speaker 1: I'm speaking to a dear brother and a dear sister.
[1:19:40] Speaker 1: I may not know you. You don't have to, but
[1:19:43] Speaker 1: I encourage you. Use the gift of your will.
[1:19:46] Speaker 2: Like the prodigal son and find your way back to
[1:19:49] Speaker 2: the home where honor, where dignity, where great destiny is resident.
[1:19:54] Speaker 2: I want to give you an opportunity to make the
[1:19:56] Speaker 2: altar call. And I'm looking for a very sincere person tonight.
[1:20:01] Speaker 2: I'm looking for the first person who will come to
[1:20:04] Speaker 2: stand here And count one to five for sake of time.
[1:20:09] Speaker 1: I want you to leave your seat. You are saying, apostle,
[1:20:11] Speaker 1: I truly want to make it right with Jesus.
[1:20:14] Speaker 2: Or you are saying, I'm rededicating my life. I don't
[1:20:16] Speaker 2: want to play games. I mean it from the depth
[1:20:19] Speaker 2: of my heart. I know there's someone who is bold enough.
[1:20:22] Speaker 2: You want to win that war once and for all.
[1:20:24] Speaker 2: As I begin to count one to five, I'd like
[1:20:26] Speaker 2: you to leave your seat very boldly and come and
[1:20:30] Speaker 2: stand right in front of me. That includes those who
[1:20:32] Speaker 2: are following online. We have just one minute for you.
[1:20:35] Speaker 2: May I request that you come quickly. I begin my counting.
[1:20:38] Speaker 4: One.
[1:20:39] Speaker 1: Let's celebrate them as they come. If you are running,
[1:20:43] Speaker 1: run quickly. Come to Jesus.
[1:20:48] Speaker 4: Two.
[1:20:50] Speaker 1: South Africa celebrates salvation. Come.
[1:20:53] Speaker 4: Come.
[1:20:55] Speaker 1: God bless you.
[1:20:56] Speaker 4: Come. Come.
[1:21:03] Speaker 1: Three.
[1:21:03] Speaker 2: Three.
[1:21:05] Speaker 1: No matter how far you are, make your way. Make
[1:21:08] Speaker 1: your way quickly. Make your way. Let's celebrate them. They
[1:21:11] Speaker 1: are coming.
[1:21:17] Speaker 4: Come.
[1:21:18] Speaker 2: He's able to give you a new beginning through the
[1:21:21] Speaker 2: atmosphere of worship and the word tonight. He wants to
[1:21:25] Speaker 2: make a blessing out of your life. He wants to
[1:21:29] Speaker 2: make a sign and a wonder. You can be reconciled
[1:21:33] Speaker 2: to Jesus tonight and you'll begin your journey to greatness.
[1:21:38] Speaker 1: Four. I count five and we'll pray. I still see
[1:21:41] Speaker 1: people coming.
[1:21:42] Speaker 4: Come.
[1:21:43] Speaker 1: Let's celebrate them as they come. Let's celebrate them as
[1:21:47] Speaker 1: they come. Young, old, male, female.
[1:21:50] Speaker 2: Come. For some of you, even with salvation tonight, you
[1:21:55] Speaker 2: will be receiving the gift of hunger.
[1:21:58] Speaker 1: The gift of dissatisfaction. In Jesus' name we pray. Even this,
[1:22:11] Speaker 1: it is God who is at work in you.
[1:22:13] Speaker 2: For no man can come to the Father. Blessed is
[1:22:17] Speaker 2: the man who God causes to approach him. It is
[1:22:20] Speaker 2: God who causes men to approach him. My brothers and sisters,
[1:22:23] Speaker 2: I want to say thank you on behalf of Jesus
[1:22:26] Speaker 2: and the angel over this house. I want to say
[1:22:28] Speaker 2: thank you for the boldness and the courage to make
[1:22:31] Speaker 2: this noble decision. Can I request that you lift your
[1:22:33] Speaker 2: right hand? Let it be as a sign of surrender.
[1:22:36] Speaker 2: And I'm also praying for someone who is following all
[1:22:39] Speaker 2: across South Africa, across Africa. You're following by the airwaves.
[1:22:43] Speaker 2: Lift your right hand and say this loud and clear. Say,
[1:22:46] Speaker 2: Lord Jesus, tonight I have heard your word. I love
[1:22:53] Speaker 2: you with all my heart. I believe you are the
[1:22:59] Speaker 2: son of God. I believe you died for my sin.
[1:23:06] Speaker 2: Right now, I receive Jesus into my heart as my Savior,
[1:23:14] Speaker 2: my Lord, and my King. I declare that the power
[1:23:21] Speaker 2: of sin, Satan, hell, and the grave is broken over
[1:23:28] Speaker 2: my life. From tonight on, I'm a child of God.
[1:23:33] Speaker 2: I go forward ever and backward never.
[1:23:37] Speaker 1: Amen.
[1:23:38] Speaker 2: Keep your beautiful hands lifted. Father, thank you for these ones.
[1:23:41] Speaker 2: The Bible says, as many who will come to you,
[1:23:43] Speaker 2: you will in no wise cast away. They have come
[1:23:46] Speaker 2: declaring your lordship.
[1:23:47] Speaker 1: I speak the blessing upon you.
[1:23:49] Speaker 2: And in the name of Jesus, I call you bona
[1:23:52] Speaker 2: fide recipients of the life of God. The grace to
[1:23:55] Speaker 2: live the victorious Christian life I release upon you. And
[1:23:58] Speaker 2: I pray that from today you go forward ever and
[1:24:01] Speaker 2: backward never.
[1:24:02] Speaker 1: In Jesus' name, amen.
[1:24:05] Speaker 2: Please let me request that you look to my left.
[1:24:09] Speaker 2: That will be your right from where you are standing.
[1:24:11] Speaker 2: There are counselors who have been trained to have a
[1:24:13] Speaker 2: word and a quick prayer with you. Thereafter, you'll be
[1:24:16] Speaker 2: back to your seats. Please do cooperate with them. Let's
[1:24:18] Speaker 2: celebrate them as they go. Everyone in concert to my left.
[1:24:22] Speaker 2: That will be your right. Keep clapping. Keep clapping. Keep clapping.
[1:24:28] Speaker 2: Keep clapping. Don't stop clapping until the last person leaves.
