YOUR SITUATION IS NOT TOO BIG FOR GOD; LEARN TO PARTNER WITH HIS POWER || APOSTLE JOSHUA SELMAN

0:03 In Zechariah 4 and:e 6, let's rush. Zechariah 4 and:e 6 it says then he answered and spake unto me saying to Zerubbabel now this is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel and it applies to us. He said not by might nor by power human power now and strength but by my spirit sayeth the Lord. THERE ARE CERTAIN RESULTS THAT HAPPENS by the spirit and by the power of THE HOLY SPIRIT. MICAH chapter 3 and verse 8. Micah chapter 3 and verse 8. Micah chapter 3 and verse 8. Everyone please read. The first sentence will end at Lord. Ready? 1 2 read. But truly I am

0:49 full of power by the spirit of the Lord. TRULY I AM FULL OF POWER TO do ministry. I AM FULL OF POWER TO DO BUSINESS. I AM FULL OF POWER FOR GOVERNANCE AND POLITICS. I AM FULL OF POWER AS A prayer warrior, POWER AS A PROPHET, POWER AS AN APOSTLE, POWER AS A KINGDOM FINANCEIER. TRULY I AM FULL OF POWER, the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Truly I am full of power. Luke chapter 4 please let's just go to verse 14 for sake of time maybe 13 and 14 this was a temptation of Jesus Christ and the Bible

1:35 says and when the devil had ended all the temptation he departed from him for a season read 14 with me if you desire this ready 1 TO READ AND JESUS RETURNED in the power of the spirit into Galilee and there went about a fame OF HIM THROUGH ALL the region round about. It takes power to gain visibility. You can be sincere. You can have a message but it takes power for your generation to hear you. MANY OF US IT IS THIS EMPOWERMENT PART. REMEMBER, I've taught you that the greatest need of an unsaved person, the

2:21 greatest need of an unbeliever is what? Salvation. The greatest need of a saved believer is transformation. And that through the ministry of the spirit and the ministry of the word. But the greatest need of a transformed believer is empowerment. FOR MANY OF US, I GIVE IT TO YOU that you have experienced a dimension of commendable transformation. But you need the grace to defend the things you know. In this kingdom, we not only hear, we hear and see. Is that true? >> Acts chapter 8 from verse 5, Philip went down to Samaria and preached Christ unto them. The Bible says verse 6, the Bible

3:07 says, "And the people with one accord gave heed to those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing." In this kingdom, we don't HEAR ALONE. GOD CAN LIFT. GOD CAN BLESS. GOD CAN change stories. We need to see. You both hear and see. For some of you, people have only heard of what God can do through you. In this season, they will begin to see it. Help that lady please. [music] Listen, can I be honest with you? I have seen many demon spirits in my life. I'm not telling you what I just read in

3:54 scripture. If you ever see men excelling in spite of Satan, something is keeping him. You don't want Listen to me. For thousands of years of Satan as a defeated foe, he has still not given up on fighting God. You have to understand the person you are dealing with. YOU WILL THINK AFTER THE MILLIONS OF YEARS OF HIS REBELLION, HE SHOULD JUST GIVE UP ONE DAY. SATAN IS AS DETERMINED TODAY AS HE WAS WHEN HE LEFT HEAVEN. WHAT KIND OF A CREATURE IS THAT? EVEN SOME OF THE KAPONS, SOME OF THE ARM ROBBERS, SOME OF THE TERRORISTS, THEY GOT TO A POINT WHERE THEY WERE BROKEN LIKE CHILDREN. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN SATAN REPENTING? HAVE YOU EVER SEEN HIS

4:40 PICTURE ON HIS KNEES SAYING, "GOD, JUST PUNISH ME, BUT I'M ready for peace." Most people do not know the person they are dealing with. If you think OPPRESSING YOU FOR 30 years will make Satan say it's enough, think again. Apostle, he has tied down my MINISTRY FOR 5 YEARS. ONE DAY GO SATAN GO AND READ YOUR BIBLE. A MAN WHO WAS THROWN FROM HEAVEN AND AFTER MILLIONS OF YEARS, HE'S STILL DETERMINED TO THWART THE PURPOSES OF GOD. If there is anything to learn from Satan is determination. Can I tell you? You were born in the

5:26 middle of an old story that has nothing to do with you. But simply because you found yourself in that space called the earth, you better find out the rules of engagement. Otherwise, you will find out that your life WILL BECOME A CASUALTY THAT YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT. I remember years ago a gentleman true story the moment he became 13 someone slapped him in his dream 13 years and when he came and met me and he was talking you know a little boy was in one of the schools then in Zary and all of that and he came those times I used to just see them and he was telling me that somebody slapped him do you know true story when he was talking to his father the father said describe who slapped you and that was exactly what happened to the father I don't know if it was around

6:12 that time But at least as a teenager, you know what the spirit was saying? Welcome to a battle that your being part of this bloodline has forced you. YOU MUST BE INTERESTED in what we are dealing with. [music] Are we together? Why do we need the anointing? Because there is a real devil. There are real spirits. [music] Mother, the devil will not fold his arms and watch your 5, 10, eight children rise up to become responsible people. No, his joy is to steal, to kill, and to destroy. You would think if you start crying once, Satan will pity you. Find out who he is.

7:00 There are people crying in hell. If he's to pity anybody, he will start with them, not you. I don't know about you, but for me, I've made up my mind as a covenant with God. I have no negotiation with Satan. There are no discussions. Every time me and he meet, he already knows. I'm saying THIS BECAUSE SOME OF YOU HAVE ALLOWED THE DEVIL LIE TO YOU. YOU ARE A WOMAN. DON'T GET INTO THIS SPIRITUAL THINGS. SOME OF YOU, YOU ARE A MAN. SOME OF YOU, YOU ARE NOT A PRAYER WARRIOR. YOU DON'T LET THE DEVIL KEEP DECEIVING YOU AND DESTROY YOUR LIFE. LET ME TELL YOU THIS. SEE, WHEN SATAN WANTS TO

7:45 DESTROY A FAMILY, his first target is the strongest person spiritually. I'M GIVING YOU SPIRITUAL INTELLIGENCE. HE'S NOT STUPID. HE WILL AFFLICT WITH SICKNESS. HE WILL AFFLICT WITH PAIN. HE WILL AFFLICT WITH FRUSTRATION. SO THAT WHEN YOU GO DOWN SPIRITUALLY, THAT HINDRANCE HAS CLEARED THE WAY. HE WILL NOW SETTLE DOWN AND ATTACK SOMEONE BLESS IN THE SPIRIT IN ONE MINUTE. NOT MY DESTINY IN THE NAME OF JESUS. Help those under the anointing.

8:37 in Jesus name. Please sit down. Let me tell you something. Please listen to me. Listen to me. Listen to me. I will not go ahead of myself. There is a separate series on deliverance. That one we will announce it and I will settle down and teach you. But can I tell you this? I DON'T MEAN TO SCARE YOU, but Africa, listen to me. If you are a firstborn, listen to me. If you are a first male, listen to me. If you ARE A LAST CHILD, LISTEN TO ME. IF YOU ARE A BREAD WINNER, listen to me. IF YOU ARE THE ONE WHO LIFTS UP THE HEAD OF YOUR FAMILY, LISTEN TO ME. SATAN, HE ATTACKS, BUT THERE IS A

9:22 PROTOCOL TO THE ATTACK. SO MUCH IGNORANCE IN THE BODY OF CHRIST. LISTEN, please look up. Look up. I want you TO PAY ATTENTION. DON'T YOU THINK I'M

10:09 WASTING YOUR time if YOU ARE THE FIRST TO be educated, THE FIRST FOR YOUR HEAD to be lifted in your family, THE F GO AND READ THE BIBLE ABOUT THE LORD'S FIRSTBORNS, NOT JUST THE FIRST TO COME OUT OF THE WOMB, THE FIRST TO DO ANYTHING in life. DO YOU KNOW WHY? BECAUSE THE FIRST OF ANYTHING IS THE SEED AND the pattern. The first to OPEN A DOOR FOR A FAMILY IS THE FIRST TO CREATE THE PATTERN. THE FIRST TO BREAK OUT OF POVERTY. YOU THINK THE DEVIL WILL FOLD HIS ARMS AND WATCH YOU. THE FIRST MAN OF GOD FROM YOUR VILLAGE.

10:55 THE FIRST MAN OF GOD FROM YOUR FAMILY. THE FIRST PROFESSOR. THE FIRST MARRIED MAN. THE FIRST MARRIED WOMAN. Praise God. Please sit down. Let me try to organize myself this night. Just help those under the anointing. I tell you, God is doing many things as I'm speaking. You came to church. This is going on here. NO WASTE OF YOUR TIME AT ALL. [music]

11:42 Hear me. Hear me. Hear me. Let me tell you one of the ways that Satan moves. is called the power of patterns. You know WHAT PATTERNS ARE? PATTERNS are repetitive occurrences. You find out, GOD FORBID, DON'T FEEL BAD. YOUR GRANDMOTHER was raped. Your mother WAS RAPED. YOUR DAUGHTER WAS RAPED. THEY NEVER SHARED IT WITH THEMSELVES. YET THE PATTERN WILL FIND ITSELF AGAIN. SOMEBODY SPENT 10 YEARS IN AMERICA, RETURN BACK TO NIGERIA LIKE AN ARM ROBBER. ANOTHER PERSON SPENT 10 YEARS IN US or in in in in um LONDON RETURN BACK. ALL THOSE THINGS ARE PATTERNS. LET ME TELL YOU WHAT PATTERNS ARE. PATTERNS ARE SPONSORED BY ALTARS. EVEN IF THE

12:29 initiators of the ALTARS GO, THE ALTARS ARE STILL VALID. They will speak. That is the reason why you see nations go through patterns, regions go through patterns, INDIVIDUALS GO THROUGH PATTERNS, FAMILIES GO THROUGH PATTERNS, EVEN MINISTRIES GO THROUGH PATTERNS. The anointing is not for preachers, not the end time anointing. The anointing is not just for men of God. [music] The anointing is not just for adults. Help that person please. I have seen wickedness in the lives of

13:17 people. I have seen Satan disabilize the joy and the peace of families. I'VE SEEN GREAT MEN of God with potentials to do things for the kingdom, but Satan just brought them down. I'VE SEEN BUSINESS PEOPLE WHO WOULD HAVE BEEN the crown of their regions. Can I tell you the truth? Believe me when I tell you Satan is not a friend. Learn from his rebellion and his unbendedness. Satan has never told God sorry. He will never tell MAN SORRY. >> JUST BELIEVE THAT about him. So when Satan comes around your life and acts like a friend, beware of what you are playing with. You are not just playing with fire.

14:04 Satan is every other thing, but he's not stupid and he's [music] not foolish. He has an advantage of age and he's using it well. Please sit down. Why do we need the anointing? To empower the believer to subdue the forces of darkness, fighting against our destinies and fighting against the advancement of the kingdom. Number two, why do we need the anointing? The second reason why we need the anointing is so that we can tap into the dimension

14:51 of supernatural possibilities. Why do we need the anointing? To empower us to tap into the dimension of supernatural possibilities. results and possibilities that are beyond the realm and the scope of humans in ministry, in business, in politics. You think Daniel became an extraordinary politician in a harsh climate just because he could speak good English? No. Even the people consulted through divination and they found out that the spirit of God, they called it the gods, was upon him. They knew that this man was not ordinary. And through the dispensation of three or four kings, he still remained on top.

15:40 Why do we need the anointing to empower us to [music] manifest dimensions of supernatural possibilities? I made up my mind as a person and as a man of God that I will never be ordinary that my life and everything about it will be extraordinary all wise. Not just because I want a name for myself. Not at all. Because I have found out that when you follow the natural cause of things, time will cheat you, men will cheat you, systems will cheat you, you need to have an advantage that is beyond the natural

16:26 cause. Are we together? It's good to follow the laws of prosperity I have taught you. But following only the natural laws of prosperity, safe journey, you will see when God will bless you or you will see when you'll be empowered in this wicked and evil world. When you are one law to break through and evil man will reverse you back to start again. More than compliance with the laws, they are there and they are important. I've taught you but there has to be an engracing that can pick you on the wings of the spirit. Remember that the unit of destiny is time. That's why God brought possibilities like speed, like restoration. These are

17:13 forces that insist and ensure that you live a victorious life. Are we learning now? In Acts chapter 7 and verse 22, let's look at two scriptures very quickly. Acts chapter 7 and verse 22. Media, please help us. The Bible says, "And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was mighty in words and in deeds." Look at such a man. Do you know what that meant? Even though he was not an Egyptian, he did not have the history. There was a supernatural engraining upon him. He learned the wisdom of the Egyptians. He was mighty

17:59 both in words and in deed. They were preparing MOSES ALREADY. THE LEVEL OF EXCELLENCE from his life, he was inevitably going to be the next pharaoh. That was why when he returned, you see, as at the time Moses returned back to Egypt, the Pharaoh he left had died, it was his son Rammeses who was his friend, that was why when Moses looked at him and say, Pharaoh, I'm sure Rammeses will look at him and say, "Dear brother, good to see you after over 40 years. The only difference is that you have returned back stupid. You were wiser when you left. You've forgotten that this is Egypt. You come and stand looking like a fugitive with a staff and tell me some diety you met in the forest said I

18:46 should come and release these people who have been in captivity for 430 years. Moses, you have the wisdom of the Egyptians. And he said, all right, I'm not here for a long story. Let the rods I told you that they are also preachers. I finished my preaching. Let the rod start his own sermon. And when he threw the rod, it became a serpent. [music] I can imagine Pharaoh laughing and saying, "You still remember?" And he called Janice and Jimus, the wizards of Egypt, [music] and they came and made caricature of the rod of Moses. They threw Pharaoh's rod. It also became a serpent. And God used that. Most of you have not discerned the sermon of the rods. Those rods preached

19:32 a message that you need to understand. You have heard the sermon of men. But understand the sermon of the rods. Do you know what happened? The rod that became a serpent ate that of the man and did not increase in size and he picked it up. That is a sermon. Dominion over time [music] and matter is real dominion. >> God was saying something there. Oh, but I'm not impressed enough. And then one plague after another. You can see that Pharaoh was not a normal human being. You can see the Luciferian manifestation. This is why some of you need to pray for your children. You flock them, they come back and see misbehave. They come out of jail, they come out of the prison cell.

20:17 Will you do it again? No. Two days they are back again. IT'S NOT NORMAL. THAT determination is not a human determination. He came from is an antichrist spirit empowering people like that. There are people when they going back to prison they don't even ask them any question. They just pass go back just go register your name change your clothes and go in there. [music] Can I tell you this? Creation is awaiting the manifestation of the sons of God. The sons of God are not here to repeat science. Science is an advantage. But believe me, God didn't take us this

21:02 far to just come and be scientific. I I guarantee you, it doesn't take fasting to be scientific. It doesn't take Bible study to be scientific. What we are manifesting is higher than science. He did not just bring us to to just do sociology or to do all of No, no, no, no, no. There will be a spectacular display before Jesus Christ comes. The manifestation of a godlike dimension of power and grace in and through the saints. It has been written so that it will not be changed. [music] the Bible, we will begin to see people manifest dimensions of intelligence. I do I say this? I like to study a lot

21:50 about the world and all of that. I like to study about UFOs, aliens. For some reason, I find those things interesting. Since I don't watch movies and all of that, I now focus on those things and I read some of the ancient science. You know, they tell us we are not alone. You know, there are all kinds of people around the world, these ones, these species of people. And then I just read up all those things and in my mind I said, "No wonder human beings behave the way they behave. There is a minimal level of wickedness that a normal human being should have. When your wickedness stretches beyond that border, it's not you again. It's you and another spirit. Is that true? No matter how wicked men are, there is a limit. When your

22:37 wickedness stretches beyond a certain threshold, you are empowered by his spirit. The same way human beings cannot love and be kind beyond a certain threshold. When you move past that threshold, you are not alone too. There has to be a spirit empowering [music] you. We need to be supernatural people. You see our world today and I don't mean to cause trouble across the body of Christ but we have to be careful. There is a gradual exaltation of philosophies and science above the supernatural. Why? Because a lot of people just believe that societies and territories have been changed through their reception of

23:23 science. We're not against that. But let me tell you sincerely. This faith work that we are part of, it [music] came by a supernatural means. It is sustained by a supernatural means. Find out how we are going to leave the earth. It's not scientific. What is the skyscraper that would take us to heaven with one last that blast of a trumpet? Those who are dead in Christ will rise. Explain the name of the scientific process that gives them new bodies immediately. What is it called? Explain the name of the scientific process that suddenly withdraws gravity

24:11 and we who are alive and shouting the name of Jesus will be on our way going. And those who are laughing at us will wave them and say, "I told you I gave you a chance. explain the name of that scientific process. Am I against science? Not at all. But let us be careful because the flesh realm, including science, is Satan's domain. He does not want you to rise or see reality beyond the three-dimensional plane. Because provided you are under the influence of the three-dimensional realm, you are in Satan's domain. He can manipulate systems and structures. He can play around with your mind and destroy your destiny. But when you rise to that realm

24:57 and that plane, your life becomes extraordinary. We have so many doctors in this ministry. There are many professionals. It is not unusual that if someone is sick, the natural cause is to administer a treatment. And that is wonderful. But what if the doctor is not there and that person may not have the chance to see the doctor? Is there a possibility of administering something powerful? Who taught the doctor that you can stand before a tree and pick a leaf and process it in a lab and it becomes an injection and you put it in someone. Even the doctors depend on the supernatural for treatment. The

25:42 injection does not get to your heart. When they put that injection, wherever it enters your body, they leave the rest. Do you not know that every other thing that happens is a miracle? I read a bit about the human body and I'm surprised at the many activities that happen in the human body. Do you know when a human being is sleeping, science tells us and medicine tells us, do you know how many activities in your body shut down just because you are sleeping? That means if as you are awake looking at me now you may think it's just your heart and maybe your brain that is working. Think again. If you know the the it's almost like a riot in your body. All the things the cells working if you don't understand they repeat it again.

26:29 This body is as busy as anything. And yet there [music] is an invisible hand that keeps it. Every time I'm in the air, I think about a lot of things if I'm not sleeping. And one of the things I think about is the miracle of a material body that was created from metals runs and then lifts and now we are above the clouds and we are under the mercy of the creator. I'm I'm not talking about the dexterity of the plane moving. I'm saying literally for 50 MINUTES OR 5 HOURS or whatever hours you are under the mercy

27:16 of the creator. Do you know that if that plane goes down there is no amount of you can see the limitation. Flying helps me to know where science ends. The moment they lift, science says I've tried Whatever you believe, let it continue with you. When you are coming down, come down to my realm. I will pick it up from where I'm limited and land you safely and a plane is moving and I'm sure that God watches in heaven and he's just saying, "Oh dear." These people do not even know who is flying them. It's not like they met him to verify whether he's drunk, whether he's all right, whether he fought with his

28:01 wife, whether he's under a psychological problem. You just know that the owner OF THE PLANE GAVE THE MAN THE THE THE access [music] and you now had your confidence to sit down there. Why wouldn't I trust God? Listen, I travel a lot and if I can place my destiny in the hands of an airline, God bless them. A number of them are my people. I God bless you. I'm not I'm not speaking against them. Literally when we are flying in the night, I don't know where we are. I don't know where we believe everything they tell us.

28:47 AND YET THESE ARE HUMAN BEINGS THAT CAN MAKE MISTAKES. NOBODY EVER SAYS VERIFY THAT WE ARE WE are you know HOW ARE YOU SURE WE ARE SAFE? And yet the creator of the ends of the earth when he now beckons that we trust him we bring all kinds of flamsy reasons and say God before I take this step prove to me yet we jump into the plane and sit down quietly I'm using flight because almost everybody here or many of us here are maybe frequent flyers in some way just see what you do every day and every time. What of the driver that drives you?

29:34 You've been hearing that they kidnapping yet you are still going to travel tomorrow. You would think that will make you afraid. You will still go and come back. The longest sea journey I've had was 1 hour 20 minutes or so. I made up my mind that I won't repeat that again. Again. Again. not from the riverine area. I've made my contribution as far as my experience is concerned. My goodness. Let me tell you when you are and and these are military people carrying me. They are not amateurs. Just said Lord for me to live is Christ and to die is gain. If I die the only thing is that I didn't finish my assignment but at least

30:28 Are we blessed? >> Very quickly, I'm not going to explain it. I'll just give it out very quickly because there's something I want us to press on. There are four keys. Four keys that are responsible for spiritual empowerment. You want to encounter the anointing, there are four keys, four demands. And then I will now teach you how to receive. Are you ready? Number one, consecration and intimacy with God. The first requirement. IF IT IS GENUINE POWER, you want the power of consecration and intimacy with God. First John chapter 2, please from verse 15,

31:15 please hurry up. Hurry up. FIRST JOHN, LOVE NOT THE WORLD, neither the things that are in the world. Can you imagine that? To receive the power that gives you everything, you need to lose the passion for everything that is in the world. Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, the pride of life is not of the father but is of the world. Now look at this kind of look at this thing. Now it says love not the world is the word eros.

32:01 Many theologians and many people have mistaken this to mean don't love prosperity, don't love increase. That's not what the Bible is teaching. THE WORD LOVE is the word errors. That means an ungodly affinity, an attachment towards things that takes the place of Christ in your life. Are you getting the point? Now, God is not against us prospering. God is not against us having influence. WHAT HE'S AGAINST IS EXALTING THOSE things and having an obsession THAT IT DETHRONES CHRIST IN YOUR LIFE. Any kind of money that Jesus must be dethroned for you to have it is useless. Any kind of lifting that Jesus must be dethroned for you to have it is useless. Anything God gives, Satan will try to

32:48 give it to you too. But the condition is bow down and worship me. That was what he brought to Jesus. The three Hebrew boys remember Satan is obsessed with worship, transgenerational allegiance. Do you know the reason why God cannot trust many people with his anointing is because they are not set apart to look beyond themselves [music] and to see Jesus lifted. I think it was in Lagos or so I was teaching was it yesterday now or day before yesterday and I was telling them I said you know not every closed door is demonic. There are certain doors is God that close it by himself as an act of his mercy

33:34 because he has weighed you and found out that if that door is opened the the existence of the flesh within [music] you there are people no matter how they fast and pray for the prophetic they will not receive that grace. Do you know why? Because if you actually receive the creative dimension of the prophetic in anger you will cause and kill people because you are angry. You will kill more dead bodies. You will be cooperating with Satan because of anger. So God will rather withdraw it until that intimacy with the Holy Spirit and that transformation is there. [music] There are many people including preachers. There are certain anointings if God gives you today you will not pray again. Why will you pray when people will travel from several nations and will pay everything to come and meet the

34:20 great man of God, APOSTLE JOSHUA SELMAN? WHAT DO YOU NEED PRAYER FOR AGAIN? WHAT DO YOU NEED FASTING FOR? AGAIN, can I tell you this? If it is the anointing you want to receive is more than your money, you can drop your seed and God says, "Nonsense, carry your money and go away." It is your heart I'm looking for. Prayer and fasting is important. But let me tell you before your prayer and fasting will make sense and have value in the spirit. Your heart condition must be right. The desire and the desperation to see Jesus revealed and glorified in your life. Do you know? You always hear me give this example.

35:05 Imagine that God opens your eyes to the prophetic [music] and a millionaire or a billionaire. Billionaires are all over your church or your ministry. You literally can look at them and God opens your eyes and you see what they have in their account. You've already bought sharp sand to build your house and you are limited. There's there's no money. You've calculated everything. Your engineer has told you 300 million will build a solid structure for you and the people trust you. That's when you will know whether you are saved or not because one spectacular prophetic word and you see human beings when they trust you they become vulnerable to you sincerely you can tell someone look you have 1

35:52 billion 250,000 AH YES THAT'S true the other part I won't touch the one billion but that other slice give on to Caesar WHAT YOU CAN TWIST ANYTHING AND JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE TALKING AND THE PERSON IS FALLING WHILE YOU ARE TALKING does not mean it is God that is behind it. >> You see I told you there you can misuse the anointing. There is a level of charismatism that the anointing brings. There is an aura is a fragrance. It can attract everything to you. That is the reason why people have to be dead to self. Are we together? Consecration and intimacy. Proverbs 23 and verse 26.

36:41 This has become an anthem in my life and I'm praying that someone will finally get that revelation. Please look up. My son, give me mine. Give me thine. Many people are giving God offerings. Many people are giving God pullpit. God does not want your pullpit. He's not looking for your offering, your tithe. All of those things are secondary. Let me tell you sincerely if you want power with God coonia hear me what God wants is your heart. I can tell you by the authority of scripture, by the privilege of learning from the fathers and by my own experience, if you are genuinely anointed, genuinely anointed of God, there is almost a god-like worship that

37:29 people can bring around you because of the allsurpassing manifestation of the excellency of God in your life. Even you sometimes you will look at yourself and say, "My God, who am I? I know what the anointing can do, believe me. And if you are not broken before God and especially our generation of ministers, small grace here, small anointing and that's it. You see people misbehaving all around with the anointing, small prophetic, SMALL APOSTOLIC AND ALL KINDS OF THINGS. and God just withdraws the more he wants to give you. Because when God tests you with it, you are rude, you are lawless,

38:14 you are in discipline, you are you are you are rebellious, you don't have any regard for authority. God says no. This little we've given this guy, let's leave it there. If we multiply this anointing, you will heal everybody. It means people will start kneeling down, lick your shoe, worship you, call you king of kings, then they will receive healing and go. Another person will do that KIND OF THING. GO AND READ THE STORIES OF PEOPLE, I'M NOT BEING SARCASTIC, WHO DID not allow God to work on their hearts. Preachers, let me encourage you co-laborers in the gospel. Let's be careful how we impart graces on people. Just because people are committed and their hearts are open does not mean they are prepared. Let God vet them so that you do not anoint people who will be a casualty to you and

38:59 others. History has taught us a lesson. Anointing people unprepared will always lead to casualty. WE ARE ALL STUDENTS IN THE SCHOOL OF the spirit. Don't get me wrong. It's like carrying your car and giving your 12 or 13 year old child. The way children are brilliant now. One can even drive with his eyes closed. Children are have mastered the art of surprising everybody. But the chances are excellent that that child, he will most likely be the only one with that car among his contemporaries. And it's pride not incompetence that will kill that child. Do you know what it means to carry the grace that grants you access to the destinies, the loyalty, the finances of people? It was our father in the Lord

39:47 Baba Ado who made a statement one time and he said by the grace of God if he needs a shirt today by the privilege of the influence God has given him he can make one statement and say brethren I need a shirt and he said literally without exaggeration his size can finish in the market because everyone will want to point do you know what it means to have that level of influence don't tell me I will be fine Are you seeing why God works on our hearts? You can speak to someone and say in the name of Jesus Christ, may the [music] Lord lift you and in two weeks he comes back, he has become a billionaire. And the person comes to you as a billionaire and say, man of God, I'm still your boy. Oh, good news to the

40:34 ear of a preacher. A billionaire is your boy. Are you learning tonight? While you are laughing, please make sure you understand what I'm saying. GOD DEMANDS DEATH TO THE FLESH if you must carry genuine power. Billionaire is your boy and can say sir it looks like you are not happy. Is there any problem? What can I do for you? And Satan comes to stand by you and says is this how you are going to allow remember your childhood. remember how you suffered. Now is your chance. And yet the spirit of God tells you do not touch one naira from that man. Rather sew into his life and bless him.

41:20 And you say I reject that spirit that that the spirit that is not an economist to use your brain and know that this will flow from I mean Can you be so anointed that God places you in the midst of greatness and you still have self-control? There are many wealthy people today who run away from churches, respectfully speaking, because they won't let them rest. Once a preacher is preaching, he's looking at everybody, but they know who he's talking to. And the people say, "Please, it's not a cause TO BE BLESSED." THAT'S WHY MOST PEOPLE DON'T testify because they know it's a risk.

42:07 Oh, this is what God has done. We just floated two aircraft. I mean, one estate and all of that. And the preacher is clapping. And the man knows exactly what that clap means. See, I I made a vow and a covenant that by the privilege of God's grace, I'm not saying it by the strength of the flesh. This ministry will never inconvenience anybody because of tea and bread. If God will not provide the wisdom to fund this assignment, I will honorably go back home and sit down. It's better to sit down and not do ministry, but have your integrity. Are we together now? Consecration and intimacy with God. Number two, what is the second key

42:55 that governs the manifestation of the anointing in your life? Honor to the word of God. If you do not live by the principles of the kingdom, honor to the word of God. If you do not live by the principles of the kingdom, you will never access the anointing. Please write it very quickly. Honor to the word of God. In Proverbs 23 verse 22, the B part where we just read, he said, "My son, give me thine heart." Proverbs 23:26, it says, "And let your ears, YOUR EYES OBSERVE MY WAYS." John chapter 1 and verse three. John chapter 1 and verse three IT SAYS AND WITHOUT HIM THE WORD ALL THINGS were

43:43 made by the word and without him the word was not anything made that was made are we together even the POWER OF GOD HIDES in his word Habacook chapter 3 it's become an anthem here too Habac chapter 3 we'll start from verse 3 and 4 God came from Tamman and the holy one from Mount Paron. His glory covered the heavens and the earth was full of his praise. Verse four, I wish we could have verse four in amplified otherwise no problem. It says and his brightness was as the light. It says rays streamed from his hand and there in that sunlike splendor was the

44:30 hiding place of his power. There is a relationship between the word of God and the power of God. The second key is honor to the word of God. I submit to you that I have a problem with people who manifest power and I cannot see in their lives honor for the word of God and the principles of the kingdom. If you manifest power and you do not have honor for the word of God, you deserve to be suspected. Are we together? Because it's like seeing somebody with a child who you never saw pregnancy. Are we together? Your stomach was as flat as my own now and then immediately you just drag a child. No, we have a

45:16 right to say whose child is this and it's not maybe surrogacy or anything. You say it's my child. I was pregnant. We need to examine that kind of pregnancy. That's how the word is and miracles on the supernatural. If you do not have honor to the word of God, we look at your life and we do not see that you understand the word of God. Believe me, do not blame people if they suspect the manifestations that come through your life. The word of God gives credence to the outworkings of his power in your life. Are we together? Number three, what is the third key that controls spiritual empowerment? Prayer with fasting. For me, it's not just prayer and fasting. It is prayer with fasting.

46:05 The emphasis is prayer. The fasting is an accelerator. Prayer with fasting. Luke chapter 4. Very quickly, we'll look at verse 1 and 2, then we'll go to 14 and 15. Luke chapter 2. Luke chapter 4. 1 and 2. The Bible talks about Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost. So he was full of the Holy Ghost, he returned from Jordan and he was led by the spirit into the wilderness. Verse two, it says being 40 days tempted of the devil and the Bible says in those days he did eat nothing and when they were ended he was afterwards hungry. Let's jump for the sake of time to verse 14. You know his temptation, the three temptations and all of that. And the Bible says Jesus returned in the power

46:52 of the spirit into Galilee and there went about a fame all the regions round about. 15 it says and he taught in their synagogues being glorified of all. If you want to walk in genuine spiritual power, the facilitator of the anointing is prayer with fasting. There is nobody I know who genuinely commands the supernatural, who is not a student of prayer with fasting. There are wrong fasts. There are religious prayers and fasting that does not carry any power. It's just a show of religiosity with no is just for

47:38 health benefits. But there. >> Hallelujah. Praise God. Glory. Glory. Glory. Hallelujah. Glory to Jesus in the highest. Wow. Another awesome and beautiful moment that we just shared in God's presence. That was a heavy one. Hallelujah. That was truly a heavy one. One that is staring, educating, and that will make you angry to do what you ought to do to bring your family to land. Yes. One that will make you angry to know that something is required of you. Hallelujah. Something is required of you. I just

48:25 feel in my spirit. Can we just pray in the holy days for like 30 to 30 seconds or 1 minute or 2 minutes cuz we know the time is limited in this comment section to digest these things that has been sown in our spirit. Every word of God is a spirit is a is a seed sown in your spirit. And the essence of this seed sown in your spirit is that it germinates. Seeds are not sown to die. Nobody intentionally sows a seed for it to die. Everybody sws a seed for that so that the seed will germinate and the germination of the seed will bring about fruit. So the way of multiplication is seed germination and fruit bearing. Fruit bearing is the resultant effect of

49:12 a seed. So the goal is that your life will bear a fruit and then you know that the seed is working. Can we just pray in the Holy Ghost and digest this word? What a word. What a word. [music] that has been swn in my spirit. Just go ahead. Even if it is two or three, go ahead. Lord, I preserve this word that I've heard. This word that has been spoken by Apostle Joshua Sman, they

49:58 have been swn in my spirit. I receive them and I preserve them. Many times we hear this kind of words. What the enemy does is to come and steal the word. Come and steal it. Because as long as these words are there, they will keep stiring you and sping you up to take actions. Lord, we preserve this word. We give expression to this word that we've heard.

50:46 We preserve them in our spirit. We give expression, Lord. We give expression to it. Let it keep burning in our soul as we take actions, as we practice, as we do what we ought to do. Let it not just be a word that we've heard, but let it be a word that will germinate and be let this word continuously stir and spore our spirit. Lord, let this word continuously stir our spirit.

51:33 Let this word continuously stir our spirit. Father, we give you praise. Go ahead and bless his name. Oh, we thank you Lord. We thank you Lord. In Jesus precious name we pray. Amen. Hallelujah. Wow. Just this few minutes I feel so much ste in my spirit. My spirit is already bubbling. Just this few minutes that we prayed, I feel so much bubbling. Hallelujah. This is why we caption this. It is not impossible with God. It is not. If you can partner with God with the anointing, you will be empowered to do possibility.

52:21 I like you to understand that it is not impossible with God. The forces of God are not limited. The forces of God are not limited. Praise God. The only limitation is from man. The place of partnership. If you can partner with God and be determined, it is not impossible with God. Hallelujah. >> [music] >> Bible say for with God all things are possible. For with God all things are possible. Hallelujah. So when we partner with God and go to the point that there is nothing limiting God. All things

53:08 are possible. There is no impossibility. Praise God. This is why the sermon has come to stir us up. Hallelujah. You see apostle talking about the first born in this sermon. He said the firstborn is a pattern and a seed. If you are a firstborn, take your life serious. Everybody should take your life serious. Everybody take your life serious. You are not just a you are a seed. That's what I'm supposed to say. So somehow you can determine how others will be and you are a pattern. Ah whatever the firstborn is able to conquer has been conquered for life. You are a pattern. You are a

53:57 model. You are showing how it ought to be. So therefore don't allow anything to refuse to stay down. Refuse. Refuse. It is one thing to be pushed down and is another thing to decide to stay down. Someone can push you down and go and they decide to stay. And that's what a lot of people do in life. They are pushed down and they remain down. No sir. No sir. Use your will. Press into [snorts] God. Come up again. Hallelujah. When you win, nobody will remember you. When you win, nobody will remember. The wind will be so mighty that whatever

54:42 that happened in the past will be forgotten. He say moves with pattern. There is power in pattern. Apostle said one of the ways that he is by pattern structure a way for the family and make them believe that's how it should be. And when you believe that on something and believe that that's how it should be, he makes you be loyal to it. You will not want to revolt it. So he's a master of bringing patterns and making you believe these patterns are here to stay. You cannot do anything about it so that you can be loyal to it. Don't be loyal to any nonsense pattern. Don't be loyal to it. partners are

55:30 sponsored with or yes they cannot stand on their own. There must be an author backing the pattern. Now that we are hearing the sermon and we are receiving spiritual intelligence, s build your own order and begin to create the kind of pattern you want your children and your sibling to do is about build your own altar and begin to create the kind of pattern you want you yourself everyone around you to be. Hallelujah. and they continually speak. Every time you see an altar, you see a voice. That's the work of an author. As long as that author is service, it will have a

56:16 voice. Every altar that you see that is service has a voice. And it main project is to speak. It is those speakings that it does that it that brings the affliction and mayhem to the life of men. Satan is not your friend. Never. He's called our adversary. I take the scripture the way it is. Whatever the scripture call is what I call that's why I tell people you have an adversity. Settle that for an is called the enemy is our enemy. We have an advers saying some mindblowing things here that wow I I I just sat there and I talk about it and I say these things are deep truths. He's an adversary. His job is to

57:02 seek him for whom he may devour. If he's given opportunity sir does it mean he will see and say okay I he will devour devour and look for another one to have you see where a lion is devoid that's why he said he's like a roaring lion looking for whom he may thank God the bible said who he doesn't in the precious name of Jesus he has never told God sorry. Wow. Say this. I said, "My God, he has never since that time he was dethroned till now. He has never told God sorry and he's not willing to." Apostle say don't think

57:49 he's going to pity you. This is powerful. Don't think he will pity you. Don't if he has not apologize. Is it to you that you apologize? If he has his way, you will cause all manner of me. He say Satan is everything. [clears throat] Everything but not finished [snorts] or stupid to be everything. Apostle said he has the advantage of age. So over time he has understood the fy of man. He has understood the weakness of man. He has understood the structure you can use to attack man and man because he has an advantage of age. If you see men excel in spite of Satan something is behind it

58:38 and it is keeping him from attacking. I look at the scenario of job I said this is not surrounded. How did he know if he has not come to Job over and over again? How did you know that Job was surrounded by a heat by God? So that means God can build a heat over. Hallelujah. I know that my life is covered with a heat by God. God can build a heat. The prosperity of Job was God. Because the moment God accepted the test or decided to test, remove the heat. He did not waste one second. The moment God removed the attack came at the same

59:24 time like someone that that was waiting for an opportunity like it was coming in to thou has built a so over a man that in spite of you will be succeeding and you'll be successful. Hallelujah. This is one of the things that this sermons is bringing to our table, bringing us knowledge and wisdom. He said for thousands of years he has not given up. Thousands of years that he was the throne, yet he still fighting. He's still in combat. What a determination. Very determined. He knows his end. Yet he doesn't want to

1:00:09 end the praise God. Thank God for the light of God's word that has always put us on the pedestrian where we have victory providing. My trust is in the word not of myself. The word says I have victory. I believe it. I walk in the light of it and forever I will always have victory in the name of Jesus. My notes are filled of we can't finish everything at we'll see you again. Remain ever blessed and keep burning in the Lord in the precious name of Jesus.
