ladies also following that train that ah just your body now assessment and sometimes like make a action up my body my body gets one i don't just do it anyhow did you hear the prophecy yeah you were saying your body not my body as in god was saying your body is my body as you can't do anything for god to answer those questions you want to get who just don't blood but buddy we have our daddy here he's my dad ah he's my daddy he's my daddy we have our daddy our very own pasta pasta make some noise for pasta now wow good to be here i want to welcome everybody i'm trusting god that the lord will answer to a great measure the questions that we have in our heart even as we go together in this ideal life god bless you good to be here thank you very much so what does it really mean for our body to be blonde what does it really mean well it's is um a scriptural scriptural for every child of god for everyone that is born again we need to understand that the new birth which entails your spirit being regenerated is not just only that your spirit was regenerated there's there was provision also made by the lord for your soul and even for your body so in regenerating your spirit he paid the price and the price he paid was his blood that that's why peter called he said he said you are not redeemed from your vain traditions that were handed over to you by your forefathers but by the precious your redemption is not with perishable things like sivan good but with the precious blood of the lamb the precious blood of christ and so you can see that your body was brought your soul was bought in ephesians is called protest possession that's in ephesians chapter one was talking about until the redemption of the processed position now that our redemption actually in in greek word that's translating it into the english word is buy back so your your soul and your body which the enemy took when man fell and began to you know walk in our soul and in our body to walk debt and corruption in our soul and in our body when the lord regenerated your spirit he bought your soul and bought your body for the purpose of redeeming it fully so redemption basically is to one is to buy it back and the other one is also to now redeem it from the tide of corruption that it has been following so that's what it means that our body is blood buff certainly you don't own your body there's no believer that well tracing it from the scriptures uh the body in the first place was not even created for what is being used right now the truth of the matter is that our body satan have occupied it i've taken over our body originally when god created the body you know when he formed man from the dust of the field he said it was good it was a good thing the body originally the way god made it because we're talking about the physical body the way god made it originally it was good and it was made for a purpose the bible said your body is the temple of the holy ghost so that body is the temple of the holy ghost nobody from the that's that's god's original intention for the body not only to dwell in your spirit or in your soul even in your body the body is supposed to be used for the lord i think he's in first uh corinthians chapter six he said the body is not for fornication the body is for the lord the body is not for fornication but the body is meant for the lord as uh first corinthians chapter chapter 6 verse 13 he said meat for the belly and belly for the meat but god shall destroy both eat and them now the body is not for fornication now if there is something that every young person wants to do with their body if not because the holy ghost is holding some of us you know young people what we want to do with our body is just just ride on just just get all the pleasures in the flesh you know and uh but you need to recognize like here in the scriptures the body is not for fornication and there's a reason why he said that maybe we'll look at that as we go on the body that's what i want to say the body is of the lord and for the lord the body actually is meant for the lord not for not for you as a person yeah he said our body is made for the lord yeah but sometimes as young tends to people some fleshly things and isn't it natural for our body to just obey this fleshly desire as a youth yes you just want some certain things even though you know that your body has been purchased so how do you respond to that well uh when you say uh natural isn't it natural i don't think is is now natural is a radar canal for the body to begin to desire you know there's what the bible called inordinate affection inordinate desires meaning desires that are not ordinary the body really the way god created the body is that the body you know the body has some laws that govern it for instance the body wants to rest it sends you a signal the mind may not want to write the brain might not want to but the body wants to resent your signal god place that time clock in the body that's why you sleep at night so by night immediately night begins to come your body begin to wind up call it body clock your body begins to wind up body sends you sick now those are laws that are in the body which are natural the body sends you signal when is hungry when it's tested the body sends a signal when the body is feeling cold it sends you sick now when the body is feeling hot it sends you sickness those are natural really you understand what i'm saying aha but when you now begin to now don't even even what what shatter did was the natural disaster or what i call the desires that god had put in the body the laws which you now call desire which he turned to become lost yes he said every man is tempted when he's drawn away by his own lust initially it was not called loss it was actually ordinate desires meaning desires that are according to what god wanted it to be in the first place but seeing two code of that body and drove the body to the point where the body now begins to desire things that are not lawful and of course when the body begins to deserve things that are not lawful it's already breaking as well called trespasses you're trespassing the boundary that your body god has set for your body to when you're placed with something like desire maybe desiring food for instance food for instance you know you know you can be a gluten that's inordinate desire you can be a gluten you can eat until you become a beast that's inordinate in doing that you're also destroying the temple of the lord because when you become a base you're gonna fall sick and if you fall sick you know god forbid you know you're gonna die so even those desires what sin simply did was took the body drove the let's say the the the body was actually going towards god because i believe that because i read it in the book of sam david said my body craves for you my soul panted for you my body also craves for you so for body to crave for the lord then that means that actually the body was meant to be craving for the lord his body was craving for the lord as the deer planted for the water brooks that was his soul now he was talking about it so but there he said his body also craves for the lord so the body i want to say that our body the desires that are there was taken hold of by sin and driven contrary to how god has programmed it to say in a nutshell the way what we are calling natural is not natural to desire you just need to understand if no more is rather canal sin took it and then drove it against the laws that governs the body the natural law that governs the body and it has a purpose for doing that sin has a purpose for doing that well um there are things once you put in place but majorly um for our body because like i said in earlier our body was bought for the purpose of redemption now in the scriptures in the epistles he said modify there for your bodies that you modify therefore they are same in your body meaning modify the works of the body which was seen put to death the desires you need to put to that those desires you have to put it to that and there is no way you'll be able to put to death those inordinate desires what is that put to death does this what is actually saying in essence put to death those laws modify those laws kill those laws now for you to be able to kill a law you need to bring in another law there needs to be an entrance of another law and that law is the law of the spirit of life in christ jesus if you true the spirit modify the deeds of the flesh you shall live you have to do it by the spirit you multiply that is put to there that what motivates put to death the deeds of the flesh that is the work the motions what he wants to do those desires they are they are as a result of the law if you kill the law if you're able to kill the lord you will gain life why because you need life which is a law a higher law the law of the spirit of life in christ jesus you need that to be able to modify that other law which is the law of sin in our members now you mentioned is that something we can do of course there are measures there are things you can do like paul said i two things paul say that very very paramount in in what we are discussing one he said i put my body under subjection i put my body on that subjection now your body can be brought under subjection you can't you have this body first and foremost you must understand your body and your soul is your responsibility even though it belongs to the lord the lord is a gentle man the holy ghost is a gentle person he's a gentle being he won't fuss he will give you nothings he will you know do things that will help you you know he will you know make grace available stir you up in your spirit but ultimately you have to yield you have to yield now if you don't yield you're not going to reap the resultant effect which is life so you have to yield so uh first and foremost uh paul said i put my body on that subjection now a subjected body is different from a redeemed body meaning what he does is that he uses the grace that is available at that time to subject the body until redemption until the body is fully redeemed another place he brought it up very clearly that i like is in romans chapter 12 absolutely by the message of god to present your bodies as a living sacrifice holy and acceptable unto the lord which is your reasonable service another place he said flee keep yourself from fornication which is your sanctification is your sanctification is not the lord's sanctification because when the lord wants to begin to sanctify is more than just putting your body on this objection is changing your body changing the modifying killing the laws the the laws that are at work in your body and bringing you to a place of full redemption this body can be fully redeemed that the body will not crave for anything in ordinates that's a wonderful thing about the gospel but what would do that is the law of the spirit of life in christ just which we learn by revelation now what the challenge here is that when you talk about we learn it by revelation some i'll give an example somebody who is having issues with something like um fornication and then you tell him you need to keep hearing and keep hearing and he keeps hearing and keeps hearing and then from time to time the thing arises the motion rises and then it's almost like i'm helpless what can i do yeah in counseling i can tell you there are things you can do of course they are dogs you naturally or well call it um in innocently well uh unknowingly that's the right word they are those who are knowingly opened because those laws are there but those laws are not activated if situations are not created you have to create a situation for certain laws that are there now that somebody a believer one person is the two believers one is born in a home uh he's a believer but he's born in the home where the parents are believers and there is discipline and the teaching of the word of god and correct discipline that child has by reason of that tradition that family reason there's a way he subjects the body checks the body he can check the body now the other person also he's born again but he's born in a home where he has always lived any kind of life he wants and then there some laws have been activated now you say this person is bad well it doesn't mean that this person is not bad it's just that the conditions for the law because the same law is at walking both of them the same law yes that he has not when god sees both of them yeah this one is already act the law is active but this one the law is passive and the day you create a situation a an atmosphere that is conducive for that lord what it will do might even be worse than what the other one has been doing so uh there is the place of subjecting you understand me like i talked about doors that one unconsciously opens unknowingly opens like today we have uh internet we got to read all the time and then things pop up things that we don't even cite and they they study you those guys are deadly they study you they know what you decide to go to for once probably you visited a site or something just popped up and then you looked at it and said no jesus name i will not have a look at it and then you it's going to come up again next time by the time you go on you know on the maybe youtube or whatever that you'll find another thing related to it comes up like that art is designed to activate that law or keep you bound so one of the ways to handle it putting your body on this objection is those doors that you opened close them shut them somebody said ah are you meaning i'm not gonna use my phone now i'm not saying don't use your phone you cut phone is for call for sending text message you can stay off it until you got that strength get the one you can use for calls and sending text message i know you will not die if you don't use whatsapp because we lived my generation we lived if i went when when did phone even cover when did android come out when did android come out that was the truth of the matter when did he come out wasn't didn't life go on life went on without android so right now the young people are behaving as if android is my life if you remove it from me then how am i going to be able to communicate with my world no but we have another world we have a world that we are supposed to communicate with we have a conversation where we are supposed to be engaged he said if you've been reasoned with christ seek those things which are above where christ is seated now you don't seek it he's not on the phone he's not he's not the phone he's he's uh-huh but you know you want to know how much this thing distracts you one of the things it does is that let me give you an example this one is addictive it's addictive because there's a spirit behind it the spirit of this age is behind what you're holding in your hand all the tabloids i mean all the android all the tablets and all of them there's a spirit behind it that will hook you you will not want to leave and in all you need is wasting your time the time you're supposed to meditate on god's word the time you're supposed to read god somebody says i have my bible on my phone let's say let's calculate how many times actually do you go to read by i know somebody said i use my phone to listen to message that's beautiful if you do that and you're doing it all the time then you're using your phone well but that's one of the doors one of the other doors that we also open is undefined friendship between opposite sex you just take some things for granted you know somebody greets you and then touches you and touches you one kind and you felt some electricity in your body and then you didn't control yourself you just love the feeling you want that touch again you're already opening the door that's the door you unconsciously began to open the door and before you know what is happening is just discover that that passion because it's a fire it takes over you may not have committed anything but it takes over you and begins to burn and born and when it's burning your mind is also being affected your mind that is supposed to be focused on the lord will not be focused on the lord your mind is supposed to be focused on spiritual things will not be focused on spiritual things it will focus on carnal things this is the trick if satan can get a young person to focus he's born again he's filled with the holy ghost can be going for evangelism he can be attending parameters it can be attending you know egfm or nlwc if he can get him to stay long enough on canal things if i can get your mind to stay long enough on canada it's just like getting some uh getting uh uh uh somebody said it's it's good for the boat to be in the water but it's not good for water to be in the boots but you know the way boat is built if you keep it long enough in the water water will begin to finally chipping into the boat now that's exactly what if you can keep your your mind your mind long you know i love that scripture say you will keep them in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on him that fire that is burning is not peace it's not peace it don't give you peace one way i know it will give you peace is that it will not allow you to concentrate it can even some sometimes it can even take your attention away from even your studies that fire can drive you crazy so that fire can be contained how shut that door that fire can be released when it should be released in the book of songs of solomon he said don't call for love until it's time because love is like fire when you call it thoughts when it's not your time it will consume you and you will not you'll not like what you turn out to be in the first place so i've mentioned two things one is it can be contained by shutting those doors deliberately shutting those doors as soon as i have tried this several times but it didn't work now take it to your pastor take that matter to your pastor because in shutting down those some of those doors will if you have to shut them yourself alone you might not completely shortage you sometimes you know because seeing is it just okay maybe shot it didn't lock it just shifted and just left one small space so that sometimes you peep in like okay i i repent you know but you know but once you keep beeping after a while you just open it again so you keep closing opening keep closing and opening but if if you have someone who has oversight over you that person will definitely help you and the reason why the person will help you is so that you will you know you will not keep going there until you are built up and strengthened there is no way you can put away the works of the flesh without building without raising you subject it you can subject it for a while but if you don't you subject it so that you can be built because if you don't subject it it's gonna tamper with the building you'll just be building them you know they're building to you now have you ever seen somebody who is building molding block and breaking it your mod block can break it that's what you'll be doing you know but you need to the reason for subjecting which the holy ghost grants grace for to do because i believe that paul wasn't just saying that just on his own he was saying that by reason of grace everything he said was gracious so you can receive grace to put it down until you are built up is in the course of building part of the lessons you learn is how to modify the deeds of the body your body is brought by the blood of jesus christ so we guess the first jesus who brought the body jesus brought my body from whom from the hands of the devil so i can live onto god and explain so much how you can actually keep this voice yes yes and you have to keep your body on that subjection you say that there is grace provided for that to keep your body under subjection and to be able to close some setting doors exactly exactly and keep your body that solution you don't just stay there keep going there's a need for you to grow yeah so actually you can actually stand against those things when you bring themselves as well for us we have some down down-to-earth questions like like we compiled these questions to ask some down-to-earth questions we feel like we should help us shed more light on how we manage these things these are real-life memories of young people like issues yes like the first question is as young as a young person sometimes you have crush on people so as a believer now that our bodies have been bought to be purchased and we have now discovered that we have to put our body on that objection and yes sometimes we have crushes how can you manage that does it really affect our our life as a believer whose life has been for cheese and what i used to remember i drink the car crushed um that crush is actually if i remove the sea to be rushed something is rushing you you don't need to be rushed in life one thing that i wish i could get this into every young person that is growing one thing you if your soul is able to capture as a young person while you're growing will help you to go far in life is patience patience understanding that like a very notable man of god says life are in faces life is in faces men are in sizes so i used to put it this way myself he said the steps of the righteous are ordered by god by the lord now the lord does not order jump the lord or the steps now when you like i said that thing called crush just remove is just a play with what remove the letter c it becomes rush meaning something is rushing you and of course anything you do in a haste you will always miss it i'm i'm older now i've learned wisdom i grew up also i grew up like every other young person i wasn't born past a maker i wasn't born a pastor i grew up you know i just remember then i had crushed too i had clutch that was when i was in secondary school i had there was uh this one happens to be a sister though uh then i was not i was not i was not born again then and um there was this we worship in the same church a very funny one you know and i used to just have this crush each time i see her he's as if my heart just does like this now she was i was a day student we are not in the same school she was attending um you know another school uh girls school and then she was a brother i was a day student and then i was attending a different school and then during holiday everybody's back home and then i actually remember that that was the first time i asked myself what what what is this what on earth is this because the there i went to the church the church they were doing the building they raised the ground floor and they were doing the decade so we just went there to see what we are doing i went with one of the uh to see what is going on there okay i think that we had youth meeting but i wasn't born again but you know i've always been a church boy you know so we went to church to see what was doing and then we're having youth meeting so i remember i was standing on top of the first floor that they were just about to cast and so from there i could see the gates and then i saw her when she was coming in so the thing just i i was it was almost as if i was going from from the first floor what what what on net is this what is what is wrong with me what is happening the truth of the matter is that um that that has crushed it was later on someone said i was crushed and that nearly crushed me man because imagine if i have fallen down from there you know uh so in other words i just use that to give you an example that i also agree of all right but i want you to understand that you really don't need that i want to call that to you call crush it's not spiritual it's not godly i want to say that is the first time that law of sin begins to open its door in a young person now they gave it to us they gave us a you know satan will give us a good word crush making it look innocent i used to crack joke with my son i said i hope nobody's crushing you now he said no daddy i don't i don't have any i don't know i don't have any crush now the truth of the matter is that i want to also monitor to know when that door is opening so that i will help close it i don't want that i want him to remain in no sense past a certain age he's able to remain in not said i've watched it with people when you remain innocent past a certain because you see this has to do with age limits especially what that question begins from teenage from teenage that if you're able to stay uncrushed you know imagine crushing orange okay that they crush orange what is use was what was the use of the orange in the first place yeah so if you're able to keep that you know that soul from partaking of that thing you call crush like i said satan gave it a name that seemingly look innocent so that by you is just a crush it's just a crush no it's not a crush and it can crush you rather i call it a rush something wants to rush out of the door shut it it's not yet time for that but i noticed for some of uh our young people that i've watched if he's able to pass certain age and you don't open that door you discover in your adolescent age maybe 23 24 25 26 the time you begin to reach such discover that you know you're able to handle yourself better you're able to handle your emotions your desires of the body able to handle it better i want to tell you this check it because i've canceled people i've watched it consistently they're able to handle their body better but if you yield to that thing called crush you've just that's the fires call it the first open door invitation to partake of inordinate desires inordinate affection and you when you feel it for the first time wow how this is where i'm just feeling you know this is what i'm feeling i can't help it i can't i can't help it it's just it's just i've never felt this way before the other things is a lie something wants to come out something is rushing to come out stopped it as young people we haven't worked past that state and did not shut the door they've opened the door and they've done nasty things with their bodies and all of that how they manage themselves even in these times like you know that you shouldn't have opened that door wow you've opened that door right there and you've gone through and then you feel super like wow i've opened the door i've gone so far sometimes you even ask for forgiveness and and god has forgiven you but you still feel guilty and condemned when you're in that position as a young person well um everybody has made mistakes in life now i want to say this um we are just talking about the this particular aspect crush in the works part of works of the flesh you know but there are so other areas so in other words what i'm just trying to make you see is that there is none of us who actually grew without having you know alcoholic mistakes even as believers even after you're born again you still make mistakes from time to time you know i still remember my one of the times you know i was asking the lord growing up as a young person not before i gave my life to christ after i gave my life to christ there were some you know episodes of rebellious you know um nature showing up which one yielded to you know and thought i was just being bold but as i'm learning i'm beginning i began to see that sometimes when i when i see it i feel so bad i remember one time i was feeling so bad i felt i told the lord i said i wish this episode in my life where i displayed so much rebellion i wish it was not there because especially when we begin to talk about sufficient order of that it plays out you know some people used to talk about uh submission as if they have always been like that no some of us who you see are submissive right now we have to learn it you have to learn it in a hard way so in the course of it you know sometimes i feel so bad about it and the lord will tell you know i feel bad and then and i begin to you know sink and one day the lord the holy ghost just told me he said say please keep moving on keep moving on and stop visiting that issue keep moving on stop visiting that issue it is already forgiven spit visiting it and he told me he said there is no person born in this earth after the fall of man that did not make mistake there's none of course we understand if you check the scriptures you see mistakes weaknesses are there abraham made a mistake remember the issue of ishmael that was a mistake but the lord came to me and said walk before me and be perfect meaning don't revisit this issue just keep walking walk and he walked long enough to the place where ishmael was no longer counted when he was giving him uh a commandment to offer his son he said take thy son thy only son meaning he has is not that god did not recognize that ishmael was giving birth to by abraham but that abraham had journeyed so far by moving on to the point that you can't trace that past to him ishmael was a past of shame which every one of us has sometimes had but you see one of the things about the lord is that he forgives us he can forgive us but after he had forgiven us he also wants us to move keep joining because if you're tarry there you will repeat the same thing so you need to keep journeying you need to keep moving you just have to keep going and another thing is that you have to also forgive yourself and as we have many people that's basically holds a lot of people now that inability to forgive yourself she keeps you within that terrain where he can take advantage of you i want to say this many don't realize that not not being able to forgive yourself of the past mistake or the passing can hinder your spiritual progress it can that that going back uh uh regretting about it sinking into it is satan is in a way it makes you feel you're righteous no that's not the righteousness of god that's not the righteousness of god this is a sub to drive by satan you know sometimes when you feel it you feel okay maybe god will but he's a shop to drive he's not of the lord he's not of the lord the lord would rather that you walk before me and be perfect so just keep walking keep hearing don't revisit that mistake david also made mistakes david that we talked about i said my soul panted after you my my show creates for you a man after god's own heart also made a mistake but you see he didn't dwell there he kept on moving he kept on moving and that's what the lord demands of us you know if you have made mistake in the past you have done some things that are not are not right then but if you ask the lord for forgiveness the lord forgives you but you also have to learn to keep moving when he forgives you also gives you grace to like he said to abraham walk before me now that walk before me was to walk with the light of my face then in the light that i am giving to you right now walk in it because that's the light that will take you far from that particular position where you were and be perfect praise god masturbation and fornication you know these are some issues driving amongst young people yeah yeah some of them are so much in need that they can't come out of it i know somebody that told me that he has tried yeah is he hearing that somebody wants to do i should just keep hearing and he has always been hearing the word of god but before he knows he will go back to eat that he doesn't know he was frustrated so daddy what can you say how can such person come out of that state break out of that habit when he has tried listening to the word of god always always hearing but sometimes he will still fall habits are formed habits take time to form now that's the danger of yielding to the flesh that's the danger of using to the flesh the flesh is such that it can imprison you if you keep practicing the thing and keep practicing it and keep practicing it after a while you know it will not just be practiced your body have been exercised to it your body now is conditioned so your body begins to crave for it so somebody who takes uh drugs had drugs now even even though they know he's detrimental to them they want to quit but they can't fit because the body has been conditioned too so the body needs it to keep the way you speak but who did it you did it you did it because over time over time it was over time so habits like that you know habits uh i'll call it house of the law the law of sin can be in a man but the man has not created a habitation for that long yeah you create habitation for that law when you practice the noddings the emotions of that law after a while it becomes a habit becomes a house it becomes a habitation for that law i don't know if you understand that so uh it takes time to build a house also takes time to pull down a house that's where the thing is now uh i want to just encourage such a person if there's such a person of course i know there are a whole lot of people like that that are struggling with one thing or the other they've tried they've tried and they tell you the the solution is to keep hearing truly that is the solution keep hearing but what are you hearing because if you just say keep hearing you can be hearing what you think is what you're supposed to be and why you're not that's not what you're supposed to be hearing now what you're supposed to be hearing is not even as so much as do do's or don'ts and all of that no it's christ to be candid with you you can't don't i don't care how much house you viewed for a particular law motion in the body if you can just stay here in christ it took time to view that it took time to form a habit if you can just keep hearing christ and keep hearing christ and keep hearing christ now that hearing one of the thing it does is that it begins to affect your mind the bible talked about it in the book of god be renewed in the spirit of your mind it begins to affect your mind now there is no sin of the body that just happened there is no sin fornication masturbation that just happened your mind played a major role in fact your mind played the the beginning your mind would have conceived it and then plotted it and then then when it has gone far then it uses the body the mind actually uses the body because the mind is the closest to the body in the soul the soul has the mind and the heart the heart is closer to the spirit that's why it's called the hidden man of the heart it's closer to the spirit than to the body but the mind is closer to the body down to the spirit yeah these two that's why god said i will write my law in your hearts and in your mind your heart and your mind makes up your soul the heart is closer to the spirit the mind is closer to the body the mind actually uses the body is the mind that moves the body to do what the body does is there's this trend of young people now okay oh i like her she likes me to get married it's becoming a norm yes like it's becoming normal is this normal is this wrong you know there are things we one of the things about the society which is of course um influenced by the spirit of this age what you call society you know society is not just ordinary you know is there's a lot of influence of spirits of this age one of the things it does is that certain values it erodes values what cultural values traditional values we knew we know without even being born again those days maybe not your age but my age when we are little the older generation to us then we are many of them are not born again in tradition you are not allowed to why because if the father of the year discovered you don't you want to marry my daughter and you defied my daughter hey you're finished the the village head of the village chiefs will surround you and then in fact forget about that marriage it's not going to hold again because a father sees it for a young man whether you say you are betrayed to my daughter you're going to marry my daughter and you do that you disrespected me but you see education and which is also the you call it civilization is similarization it's not civilization it's civilization same licensing same you know with time he said it was like cake like hate traditions those are not he's old fashioned it's not all fashion he said and he's seen sin that is giving the intelligence for such values to be criticized so that younger generation will begin to drop satan is very very trickish he might be he might be targeting 10 generations ahead he begins to do the work from 10 generations before but where he's actually going is 10 generations ahead so he begins to do the work ground work maybe erode some values you know maybe two three generations a road another value you know all of that then delve into you know i should tell people i said when people began to leave villages leave their you know uh their hamlets and everything and they're going to move to the city it doesn't design but god saw it and use it god saw it because many people wouldn't have been born again if they were still in their villages is when they came to the city they got born again god allowed it god used it it was in the cities they began the whole crusades big crusades and all of that god allowed it i don't know whether you understand me but i want you to understand that where he was actually going was issue of globalization that that's the that's the kind of society the spirit of antichrist want to create we have values ancient values ancient landmarks that have kept societies kept villages kept even though they are traditional but you see god has respect for them because there's a way he stick kept the body today we hear all kinds of illnesses plaguing mankind and the reason is because ancient landmarks have been broken but those days you don't hear that because the tradition traditions yeah not of god but still humane kept societies but satan just kept breaking them and breaking it i'm breaking it i'm breaking it getting to the point where it's not because my body is normal he's not after all we are going to get married what is bad about it you know i saw somebody saying that is like going to market buying super ingredients and eating them up on the way before you get to the house there will be no soup to make there will be no soup to make by the time you're eating up all the soup ingredients when you come home you can't make a soup so that's the way it is is not normal [Music] it's rather abnormal check it with the other generations is abnormal for you to do that and then coming to it spiritually as believers one thing i always say this is this that satan has succeeded in eroding values natural values but we cannot afford to allow him erode spiritual values the bible said that marriage is honorable in all bed undefiled but warmongers does fornicate us and adulterers god will judge so it is not for a child of god that has been exposed to you know i don't in many churches is you know they they just think it's not it's normal but we can't do since we are going to get married then let's just start doing it now what you've just done is that you've invited evil spirits to that union before you started that's what you just done you just invited just opened up for you've just cut covenant with some spirits before you start and you don't need them because they're going to trouble that union they will trouble eventually by the time you get married and that's the funny thing about it there's a passion there's a lost you know there's that desire it's as if you can't control it i'm so over healed head in love and i just want to have you can eat your cake and have it i just want to have i just want to you know uh why can't i why why why you people even being strict now when the person gets married you talk okay now you are licensed go on and say i don't have desire again you're not beginning to even encourage them to you know keep up with that due benevolence the bible called you benevolence that are supposed to render to each other so you now know that there's an adversary that is fighting you before marriage to trespass and after marriage he fights you again to trespass many many many young people don't know that they are not married don't know that when you get married just go after well that thing you don't even like you begin to desire another person is a law of the heart but like i said uh uh uh uh is not normal it's not normal you you can't tell me it is normal any time because that is against scriptures it's called fornication that's the word for it it's called fornication sex before marriage even though you're gonna marry that person it's called fornication it's on cleanliness it's filthiness of the flesh we need to call it what the scriptures calls it and stay there lest the spirit of this age will begin to paint it as if it is normal it's not normal okay praise god thank you for that question let me just read out um colossians i read that collusion that will enable us colossians colossians chapter 3. chapter 3 from verse 1 he said if you've been reason with reason with christ seek those things which are both where christ seated on the right hand of god now one of the things you see there is stains things so there are things which we are asked to come and seek and those things are things above now that word above also does not just conduct heaven it's not saying sick to go to heaven things are both god is above god is above all according to ephesians chapter four god who is above all and in you all now it's called things that these things are they if you take christ and break christ open in colossians he said no efficiency he said you've not so learned christ so we learn christ if so be that you have heard you've been taught and you've heard him even as the truth is in jesus christ so what is in him is truth so what we are learning those things we are learning is truth meaning like i said unveiling of jesus unveiling of jesus christ on valley of christ that's what i'm talking about he's preached by revelation he's preached by veiling of the truth that is in him why do i say truth that is in him everything inside him his truth his truth personified the lord moses but grace and truth came through our lord jesus christ everything inside him that makes me is a building blocks of truth truth layers truth and truth and truth so we are asked to seek those things that i need an example of one of the things that are in him he's a land of me so he's the one that said learn of me learn of me for i am meek and lowly in the heart now remember the meek shall inherit the earth the edge you are supposed to inherit is your body first it's not the sand it's not the sand it's your body you're supposed to possess your body now but you can't possess this body i want to tell you that you can't possess this body without the meekness that is in christ so that's why when he said he landed before meek and lowly in her say make a lonely heart you don't you don't understand what i'm doing right now i'm dealing with lust meekness can handle the lust that is in this body because weakness is a higher law than lost being lonely in hearts can handle the law you know it doesn't it looks like what is weakness going to do just being me you know just being big no what you're actually doing is that is a law that is now being wrought in your members as you are learning you're becoming meek i've never seen a meek person who will continue in sin because me you don't say meek that thing you call me is actually strength in the spirit is a lot of the spirit and they can handle any law of sin of the flesh the person is is is allah is falling constantly falling into something like masturbation and all of that is because you're not meek there's a meekness level that can handle like i said i don't care how long or how deep you've sunk into that kind of thing i want to tell you that there's a meekness level that can handle that but how do you achieve it keep hearing keep hearing keep your ass you're hearing when i was you know what will happen to you is that i should keep you in your mind you know i was talking about the mind your mind is will begin to be renewed washed and washed and washed that he might wash them with the washing of the water by the word wash and wash you after a while you also begin to receive commandments on how to walk let me let me share with you this sometimes sometimes i used to tell young people i said i've noticed as a pastor pastoring young people i've noticed that sometimes when god sends us to stay with either a pastor or an elder or someone uh in within the same community as a young person to go and stay under them and serve them even though we have our parents and our parents we did whatever living with our parents we did whatever we needed to you know just we don't even regard them sometimes you know we are just you know they don't understand these old people they don't understand us now when god sends you to live or you know that that covering is true is to teach you meekness practically to teach you meekness that but you see that covering that something it does you can't really do to elijah and that thing those works of the flesh there's a way it uphelds it one because you know you're answerable to someone where are you coming from or don't go out without telling me why did you go out without telling me and you know some of us because we are not me is it because i came to live with you am i am i am i asleep am i under bondage am i caged now the person does not understand what the whole arrangement was that one arrangement was supposed to work out meekness that would deal with something if it stays submissive submitted with the whole heart after a while you just discovered that that thing dries up that thing is stabbed so yes those desires can be stopped meaning the reason why god brings us under is to create another environment that we starve that particular walks of the flesh which will blossom in another environment let me call it an environment of liberty which is not of the lord [Music] when they bring this objection is to stab it and if you stay and obey it fully you discover that that thing he's not discovered that the thing i don't have i'm not struggling with it again that's the way it keeping our is on that subjection we should be able to hear and not just hear anything to be able to fear christ keep hearing keep learning commandments will come yes on how to walk yes and you keep doing that eventually you discover that the that particular thing you're struggling with just dies okay so does this apply to young people who have been abused and they have been affected does it apply today well my heart reaches out to those who have been abused is satan i've never said this to anybody you know growing up i was also abused i understand what it feels like i understand what it feels like but i want you to understand that you have a heavenly father whose love that's some of the things that the lord helped me to realize who loves you some of us were abused at a very that age and your parents were not even aware of it and you couldn't even tell them because you tried telling them and then they you know they hush you down you know and then some of us you know we just continued like that and uh scenarios we are created where such things you know such abuses took place now i discovered something also as a pastor that a satan that uses one to abuse and then it is is almost like a chain person who was abused if he is not arrested quickly will abuse another person and that person will abuse another person so the spirit keeps moving he's a spirit he's a spirit and what he's doing is abuse what he does is that there's a way he determines jesus he creates you know some inferior some level of inferiority complex some level of insecurity uh some level of um you know inability to trust some even after they've gotten married they might not be able to especially for women ladies they might not be able to yield themselves to their husbands because that picture keeps coming because that's one thing that's why that thing is a spirit now it's not everything you did when you are small that you still have the picture but you wonder why that picture keeps rolling it's a spirit that is you know rewinding it it's just to keep you under that bondage but i want you like i said that there's there's the love of the father and you know one thing you need to realize like i said you have a heavenly father who loves you and that you need to open up your heart for to be healed by him he can heal you if you open up your hearts he will heal you and and then in healing you he will also lead you because that's one thing he does he will lead you in a path of righteousness for his name's sake you are not disadvantaged in any way if you've been abused and then the other person was not abused like i said earlier the same law you just satan just created a scenario where that law was activated maybe young when when you are so young and you are helpless you couldn't do anything and then you know a whole lot came afterwards the other person doesn't mean that the other person is also free well the same is applicable in redeeming us the lord but like i said i'm i'm just speaking to that person who has been abused the lord loves you and there is grace you know he said i'm the father a father of the fatherless i'm a husband of the widow now he's also a father to those who have been abused much more he wants to you know he wants to help you and what you need to do is to yield to him for your heart to be healed you can be healed to the point where you will not even remember it again let me just say this just that abuse is not an excuse to sing just realize that that abuse is not an excuse that somebody said i was abused that's why it's not an excuse because if you continue with that you will go to hell ever somebody abused me you go to hell because you read the age of accountability then probably you didn't have and then you need to also understand that god the days of ignorance god had weak and bring that but right now you are up to the age of accountability you're responsible for your action you're responsible for your words so you can't just hide in that because i'm just seeing somebody else we said okay that is not my fault that's what they did to me that's what happened to me and that's why i can't help it i can't help you no you can't help it there's help in the name of the lord there's help in god's word so you he's not an excuse for you to continue in that scene god bless you thank you guys so much for joining us and we still have questions please post your questions we'll compile the questions together and give answers to the question and to post it on our website now social media pages we would love to have your questions we love to answer your questions so please ask questions for everyone out there that has listened we hope you have held something on to heard something on that pastor has said today just hold on to these words and walk with this word for those who have been abused in any way the lord really still loves you and lord is interested in you as much as interested in the person who has not because lord wants interested in everybody you especially and we are looking forward to having you around us for more ig live sessions discussing more matters that concerns us as youths and we're looking forward to seeing you in single summit actually that's something to tell you yes and i know you are also blessed too so we should not give any place to the devil just like daddy i'm saying that we should keep our bodies on that subjection we should not give room for the enemy and even though you've been abused it's not an excuse to keep sinning and there is grace god has provided the grace for us to come out of it and i pray that the lord will keep helping us in the name of jesus so daddy we are so grateful thank you thank you for having me and we are also looking forward to another time to have you i'm available at this time that is that will you let that

a young man guide his way so by taking heed to that which is written in thy law i ask that the spirit of wisdom and understanding will overtake every one of us in the name of jesus that the declarations of god in this season will be actualizing our lives in the name of jesus i take authority over and against every spirit every spirit that is lusting after our soul and even after our body in the name of jesus i come against it and i break the hold of that spirit over everyone's body over everyone's life in the name of jesus and i declare you are free for if the son of man shall set you free you shall be free indeed walk into liberty with jesus has set you free and be no longer entangled with any yoke of bondage in the name of jesus thank you our father in jesus name we pray amen
