HELP IS HERE with Apostle Joshua Selman Nimmak

[Music] two scriptures very quickly and then we take the course content second second peter chapter 1 verse 8 please media we need to work with us very very fast tonight media help us second peter 1 verse 8 and then we look at genesis 39 verse 2 to 6. it says for if these things be in you what things certain informations certain traits for if these things be in you and abound are lavish it says they make you that you shall neither be buried nor unfruitful in this context it says in the knowledge of the lord jesus christ but it applies to every area of life if these things are bound in you and they are lavish they will produce an effect the effect is that they can stop barringness and unfaithfulness from your life if they say if these things be around you if these things be in you if you believe them and by them then it says you shall neither be buried nor unfruitful genesis 39 4 verses 2 to 6 genesis 39 and the lord was with joseph and he was a prosperous man and he was in the house of his master the egyptian were ready to verse 6 and his master saw that the lord was with him and that the lord did what made all that he did to prosper in his hand and joseph found favor or grace in his sight and he served him and he made him overseer [Music] over his house and all that he had put in his hands verse five and it came to pass from that time that he had made him overseer in his house and over all that he had that the lord blessed the egyptians house for joseph's sake and the blessing of the lord was upon all that he had in the house and in the field the last verse [Music] and he left all that he had in joseph's hand everybody said trust and he knew not ought and he knew not what he had saved the bread which he did eat and joseph was a goodly person and well favored write down the things we're going to be considering please write those online follow us or at least you'll be patient to allow the media lead you [Music] there are few things that we're going to be looking at and wherever we can stop tonight we'll stop and pray but please i want to take my time and teach you this i want you to understand it and i trust that god will take advantage or to bless and lift us in jesus name the first thing we'll be considering tonight is the reality of failure how real is failure is it a mirage or is it real number two we're going to look at the concept of success in the kingdom number two we're going to look at the concept of success in the kingdom what is god's idea of a successful person the concept of success in the kingdom number three we're going to look at the concept of laws and principles the concept of laws and principles can i continue number four definition of terminologies there's too much confusion so we need to clarify terminologies as its regards or as it relates to kingdom success definition of terminologies [Music] and then number four [Music] number five thank you the laws of success the laws of success we're going to be examining the laws [Music] and then number six will end with a very strong impartation and trust god to carry something that will activate these dimensions in our lives praise the lord if you believe it say amen now statistically speaking statistically speaking five out of every hundred people ever become successful in their lifetime five percent out of every hundred people that you see only about five percent of them ever become successful whether from a human standpoint in fact when you say from a divine standpoint the statistic reduces again very few people [Music] a young man gets up living his life bubbling with joy hoping he will be successful and you see the the excitement of life on his face but that same young man give him 70 80 years down the line is a testimony of pain a testimony of regrets a testimony of sadness lost opportunities mishandled laws a life of fatal failure most people die in pain most people die advising their children don't be like me most people die apologizing to their generation because they finally are forced to swallow the bitter pill and admit they did not make it pastors business people parents young people the same challenges eating up our society the correct definition of success and a life that will become a template and a model enough worthy of emulation as far as kingdom success is concerned so it is a big issue it's a tragedy that about five percent can you imagine that out of every hundred people whether they are church goers fasting giants prayer warriors five percent of them eventually will become successful whether in ministry whether in business in fact um it is said that over 70 to 80 percent of churches that start up end by the end of that year they can continue no members no resources no wisdom spiritual forces that they've not been able to surmount and other auxiliary factors that had to enforce the failures of people write this down failure is real failure is real second point failure will happen to you if you allow it i think it's a revelation many of us need to come to terms with we have this inheritance mindset that by default just because you have a nice name or you think you are too kind to fail there's no such reality in the school of success let me tell you everybody is a potential candidate for failure until you exempt yourself is a reality that is upon us by default [Music] a lot of spiritual people say i reject it you better listen quietly to what i'm saying i am a very spiritual person i have learned the foolishness the foolishness of exaggerating truth beyond the jurisdiction of their relevance is what causes failure as a side effect please listen carefully i love you too much to deceive you i love you too much to mislead you and one of the graces god has given us in this ministry is capacity for balance so anything you hear that you do not understand just be patient by god's grace i'm a good builder every house is viewed by some man he says but god is the builder of all and so we will not build a house that is lopsided we'll build a house that stands solid on the rock no matter what shakes it it remains there say amen failure is real brothers and sisters there are pastors who are failures regardless of their spirituality there are churches that are failing and have failed some of us here seated right now it's an uncomfortable truth but right now if you will admit you know you are failing woe fully for many of us are we together now yes disappointed expectations and it's important that we find out god's system to bail ourselves out and do so very very fast so failure is real failure is very real we see it every day you see failure in the face of angry people who walk upon our streets you see failure in the face of failed marriages a man and a woman who love themselves and have an agreement to live happily and right now you see someone age 24 and he tells you i have divorced how long did you marry six months one year how about failed businesses how about failed career pathways how about failed ministries how about disappointed expectations i should enter a particular dimension of the anointing by now and after donkey years you are still there wallowing around in mediocrity failure is real it lives among us we see it in the faces of our dear loved ones we see it in the frustration of our parents you watch them and you know they are frustrated some of them are too arrogant to admit it so they act as though they are still in control but many have been forced painfully so to admit that there is something they are missing many people have been forced amplified by the recession to swallow their pride and admit i'm not getting something right nobody becomes a success by accident nobody becomes a success by chance by luck yesterday i was ministering at a crusade and i gave an instance i think i've given that instance here and i want to repeat that example watch this if i make a mistake and forget that there is a step down and then i sleep and i match will gravity forgive me and say no i know you were joking you were not serious next time be serious no gravity does not have in its configuration the assumption that men make mistake every time i violate that law of gravity i pay for it and i do so immediately and sometimes i may not have a second chance again this is how success is and this is how failure is listen many well-intentioned people many christians born again and filled the holy spirit have indoctrinated themselves into believing that just because of that status their life should succeed automatically no being a christian gives you the potential and the access for success there is a difference between access and delivery access means potentials delivery means experience listen very carefully all that jesus christ did for us on the cross gives us access but there are systems built in the dealings of god with men that converts access to delivery where you are now a a manifesto of those realities [Music] one of my very great mentors dr mike mudok he's taught the body of christ for a very long time that there are two dimensions to the dealings of god with man there are two dimensions to the approach of spiritual things number one he calls it the person of jesus and number two he calls it the principles of jesus number one he calls it the life of god number two he calls it the laws of god everybody say the life of god say the passing of jesus say the principles of jesus and my mud dog teaches that the passing of jesus is what gives you that encounter that creates your peace and secures your eternal destiny with god but it's not necessarily the key for your victory here and now are we together now so i can be born again filled with the holy spirit if i die i'm going to heaven if jesus comes i'm going to heaven i can live a life of peace whether in plenty or luck because this person has consumed me i have conformed to the image of the christ experientially but then the dimension that is responsible for my success and victory on earth is not just the passing of jesus but the principles of jesus everybody say the principles of jesus that means i can be born again filled with the holy spirit and yet be sick born again filled with the holy spirit and yet be poor born again filled with the holy spirit and yet failing career born again filled with the holy spirit and become a total failure in life such a possibility exists now most christians have embraced the life of god but we have ignored his principles are we together now and most unbelievers have ignored the life of god but embraced his principles so most of them are going to hell because they have openly declared that jesus is not lord over their lives but they have lived their entire lives applying the kingdom applying the principles of the kingdom and i've taught you here in koinonia that there is a dimension of god's power that is programmed into his laws so that whoever obeys them will get the result regardless of whether he has a relationship with god or not there is a dimension of the power and the ability of god that is programmed in laws [Music] so it doesn't matter who applies them there are certain dimensions that are privy to only believe us it is only in christ that those dimensions have the opportunity like peace like the joy in the holy ghost are we together now like the life of jesus security of your eternal destiny the ability to count it all joy when you face diverse temptations all of these attributes are not possible to the man who has not embraced christ but the principles of the kingdom the aspect that we have largely ignored i've shared with us on my my idea and i believe that god's god's idea of spiritual growth that there are two indices to measure a man's spiritual growth number one is the degree of your conformity to the image and the person of christ you're rising in character you are conforming experientially to the image of the christ but the second dimension the second index is your comprehension of the mysteries and the secrets of the kingdom both are required together to say you are growing spiritually if all that is happening to you is conformity to the image of christ that is a lopsided and a biased growth if all that is happening to you is just access to the principles of the kingdom and you never encounter the person and the life you will be carnal and you will never become a spiritual man so the synergy between these two dimensions is what produce spiritual men who are relevant both in time and eternity if that is you say amen are we together so failure is very real i think he was a wise man i don't know who exactly who said doing the same thing consistently and expecting a different result is one of the definitions of insanity doing the same thing and hoping and wishing that that same thing you are doing will just change results by itself he said is one of the definition of insanity in other words if your outcome is not consistent with your desire then you have to check what you believe and what you are doing are we together now everyone say failure is real and it's not my portion write this down the word success let's define it let's look at the concept of success in the kingdom lord give us understanding give us passion to learn please give us isaiah 1 17. a scripture just came into my spirit and i want you to see it isaiah chapter 1 verse 17 write this word down success what is the definition of success i'm i'm trying to introduce the concept of success because please look up the body of christ has had issues for a very long time there are many denominations and there are many christians some of them looking at me right now many listening to me online every time you mention the word success especially in church and to a christian there is this build-up of resentment we have associated success with carnality we have taught and indoctrinated ourselves into believing that there are two groups of people in the body of christ those who are carnal they don't love god and want to be successful and those who are total failures now for the sake of their spiritual growth there's no such doctrine in the bible the bible says looking up to jesus not up to a denomination not up to a pastor it's important to follow us but be sure we are following christ and if at any point you are not following christ it is within your power to switch paul said follow me as i follow christ i have shared with us again the danger of creating doctrines out of personalized dealings that a man can have a particular bias which may be a product of his cultural limitation let me tell you something many of these doctrines that were shipped into the church and you know i love the body of christ and i don't say it with any particular sense of cynicism i'm teaching the body and so we must realize that most of these things that have become stumbling blocks listen carefully many of us have inherited this from our parents many of our loved ones so spiritual and well-meaning but this this um mindset especially for all of us who are around the middle belt and the northern area because of the evangelical nature of christianity and the way we received it we have been told that any attention that is paid to your comfort and giving your life some sense of meaning here and now is useless so in an attempt to emphasize the fact that we need to live with eternity in view we have created a system of mediocrity and camped around it so there are many lazy men who have used evangelical christianity as an excuse to keep them lazy keep their wives and their children in poverty and penury and suffering there are men today who have not have not been working for over 20 years and it doesn't matter one room with your children they were born and bred there and he said the most important thing is this world is not our home one day we are going somewhere it's an expression of carelessness so there are many doctrines that have endorsed laziness and thus irresponsibility and thus lack of productivity so the average believer has been unable to rise to a position of kingdom influence where we can legislate on behalf of the kingdom it's a tragic situation please give us the scripture again he said read the first four words if you are a christian one to read again the word do well is the word succeed so change it and use it well one to go again it didn't say be successful it says learn you must be taught it says learn to do well it's not just saying make it land be start your submit yourself under the atmosphere and the information that will cause you to do well when i saw that scripture it was quite instructive learn to succeed joshua salman len it is not in you by default len the same way um where is he doctor not a doctor by default but you learn to become a doctor you learn to become an architect are we together you learn to become a mother that's why when ladies give birth for the first time their mothers or any of their guardians come around right and help them they can read books and google and search but it's one thing to have that theory and then all of a sudden the mother comes and says okay i will help you and then help son she becomes stronger and then tomorrow she'll help our own children learn say i will learn and i will succeed say i will learn i will be trained and i will succeed look at this when you want to become a doctor what do you do you pass through the medical school correct when you want to become an engineer what do you do you pass through the engineering school when you want to become an architect what do you do you pass through the system so when you want to become a success what do you do unfortunately there is no official institution for making people successful you see why many people are failures there are many graduates because there are many universities there are many primary school certificate holders because there are many primary schools there are many prisoners because there are many prisons and there are many opportunities for crime but there are few successful people because there are few successful mentors and there are few successful platforms that can help men become successful learn to do well write this down success is the accomplishment of a worthy goal write it down [Music] the word success has nothing to do with money it has nothing to do with all of these things success is the accomplishment of a worthy goal any goal that is ideal that is worthwhile when you set goals and achieve them you are said to be successful this is a general definition of success the accomplishment of a worthy goal a worthy ideal i want to become a doctor and then you pass through the system and you become a doctor with respect to that goal you are successful i want to become a joyful mother and you walk towards it and then eventually you get married and have your children with respect to that goal you are successful so without goals there is no basis for being successful are we together now the accomplishment of a worthy goal a worthy ideal is what we call success now let me give you a kingdom definition of success i've given you a general definition let's look at the kingdom definition write this down [Music] the fulfillment of your god-given assignment is called success from god's standpoint the fulfillment of your god-given assignment not just any goal if an armed robber says i must kill and then he still successfully from an athlete standpoint we say he has succeeded from but from the kingdom standpoint is not a success the fulfillment of your divine assignment the fulfillment of your god-given assignment is called success another definition the effective use this is my own definition now the effective use of your life your gifts and your resources to draw men to jesus and bless humanity is called success i'll take it again the effective use of your life command your gifts come up your resources to draw men to jesus and then to be a blessing to humanity is my definition of success so when you use your life like a drink offering when you use your gifts and when you use your resources to draw men to jesus and then an opportunity to be a blessing to humanity by god's standpoint and by men's standpoint you're a success are we together now the effective use of your life [Music] the effective use of your gifts the effective use of your resources to draw men to jesus and then to bless humanity [Music] to advance the purposes of the kingdom and to be a blessing to humanity that's success [Music] are you blessed now very important i i need all of us to have this understanding so that when we talk about success we are not talking of some money-mongering greedy lifestyle because this is another side of the pendulum there are many people who are so carnal so fleshly the entire circumference of their christian experience is just money and houses and cars everything about their understanding of god is the one who gives my job is to just take they can be rich they can buy suit by designers right move around the world in private jets and then we coin that and say this is my life it is a very misguided and not only misguided destructive idea about success that's what puts people under pressure to try to acquire things because we hope that by acquiring things will prove a point to people now the truth is if you are successful it will show around you but the acquisition of things is not equivalent to success in the kingdom that you are wearing a suit of a thousand or two thousand dollars you are wearing shoes you are having estates all around and you are a great man moving around and people bow down to you and people call you all kinds of names and you have multiplied troubles multiplied psycho fans that does not make you a success [Music] how much you use your life how much you use your gifts how much you use your resources to draw men to jesus and then to live a life of impact blessing your world blessing your humanity every other thing cars houses all these auxiliary benefits are just effects of success not the proof of success the proof you have succeeded is the joy in the heart of the father the proof you have succeeded is a life transformed not a car in your garage the proof that you have succeeded is somebody coming to know jesus because you did business well somebody coming to know jesus because you read your book well somebody coming to know jesus because of your marriage somebody coming to love jesus because of your ministry when your life has the capacity to draw men regardless of what area you are functioning to jesus and then an opportunity to make a mark to transform their lives you are successful by this definition you will agree with me that there are very few people who are successful there are many rich people but they are not successful there are many educated people but they are not successful [Music] haven't seen this definition why then are many people failures what is the reason is it that there is no access to knowledge is it that satan is so powerful and can veto everything jesus died for is it that though if the few were successful were just designed by god to be successful why do we have a whole generation as failures a whole community as failures [Music] i will tell you why because of one word just one word is called dishonor [Music] i'm going to be teaching you a lot of things we're still going to come to this issue of honor there is one reason why any one of you here will be a failure in life only one reason it's not that you didn't go to school it's not that you graduated with a that class no that's a silly excuse it's not that you are another nun and they are victimizing you down south or you are a southerner and they are victimizing you down north or you are on eastern and they are victimizing you those are very flimsy excuses they are obvious answers but not correct answers are we together there is only one reason why men fail in life dishonor this honor to god dishonor to men dishonor to principles there's only one reason why people fail and there's only one reason why they will remain failures this honor this honor to god this honor to men dishonor to principles is god helping us write this down laws and principles [Music] laws and principles l-a-w-s and then principles i want us to examine the concept of laws and principles [Music] jesus thank you look at me in any other and every other aspect of our lives we believe in laws and principles but when it comes to our spiritual lives and our destinies we do not believe that they walk by principles it's a tragedy it's a tragedy please hear me brothers and sisters it's a tragedy when you go to school you know that there are laws and principles you're a science-based student they teach you all kinds of science things physics chemistry they teach you how to do a lot of things they teach you what to do they teach you laws different kinds of laws and the more you master those laws the more you keep advancing and then eventually when you obtain certain dimensions of mastery they award certain certificates to you but when it comes to destiny we have been indoctrinated into believing that we are just believers and whether we respect laws or not we will become successful i will tell you where our resentment for loss came from the imbalance and the inaccurate teaching of the concept of law and works this is where we got our resentment for the word laws great men and women of god scattered across the face of the earth in an attempt and i believe everything that they teach in an attempt to explain or to bring the body of christ into the reality of christ's finished work listen carefully in an attempt to show how that the old is gone the old testament you know and that we are products of this new testament now in an attempt to help believe us leave the victorious life we have from one person copying another without finding out what exactly is being said we have drifted to another side of the pendulum and so the average believer especially the average pentecostal charismatic believer when you hear the word loss when you hear the word principles you just reject it you don't even need to know law of what you just said no no i'm not under the law [Music] write this down loss are systems [Music] is a system of rules that guarantee a predictable outcome a law is a system of rules or just a system of operation either a system of rules or a system of operation that guarantees [Music] a predictable outcome so laws are systems of operations they are systems of rules that if and when diligently applied guarantee predictable outcomes [Music] write this down laws are a reflection of god's justice system laws are a reflection of god's justice system the bible says righteousness and justice are the foundations it is aware it never changed righteousness and justice are still the foundations of history [Music] laws are a reflection of god's justice system so that nobody will say god victimize others and did certain things no he lifts it into your hands to define whether or not you will succeed or fail write this down laws are the keys to consistency and predictability laws are the keys please pay attention especially those following online wherever you are i want you to please pay attention take notes if you can't follow us on facebook on our tweeting and then we're we're making posts please follow i have a passion to help you understand this laws are the keys to consistency and predictability write this down when your results do not change regardless of obstacles then you are operating by laws when your results your outcomes do not change regardless of the prevailing obstacles is a sign that you are engaging laws [Music] hallelujah so you see a ministry celebrating 36 years a ministry celebrating 40 years people like kenneth copeland benihim 40 something years in ministry brothers and sisters that ministry was built by laws it was not just built by emotions many great corporations across the world i don't know what the oldest um retail outfit is in nigeria the oldest restaurant in nigeria but we have very great um restaurants across the nation of the earth right like connell sanders and his kentucky fried chicken and a number of people walmart and all of this some of those outfits are hundreds of years old the founders have long been dead but the laws kept it write this down laws make your results outlive you laws and principles make your results outlive you laws and principles make your results outlive you [Music] write this down finally and then i'll begin to teach correct understanding and application of laws are the keys to outstanding success correct understanding and application of laws are the keys to outstanding success correct understanding not just application correct understanding and application of laws and principles are the keys to outstanding success everybody look at this mike is playing something do you know that the same way he's playing this if someone in ghana if someone in america plays based on whatever sequence is playing they will get the same result because they are based on laws is that true please help me with this [Music] this is nestle water how many of you know there's nestle water in lagos how many of you know there's nestle water in ibadan how many of you know there's nestle water in my degree the taste is almost the same if not the same the packaging and everything when you look at this one and leave and go to a shop somewhere and you look at it you would think they took the one here there there is consistency in results there is sustainability there is predictability there are many workers those who package this in lagos may not be those who package it in another job political zone but they are all governed by the same laws so their results are the same correct thank you um pastor femi please come my friend please come [Music] two of you please stand here now look how smart they are both looking stand here please now look at this pastor femi has a knotted tie and this gentleman here has another time now watch this were you in the same room when you were not in your ties did you meet yourselves did you know you are going to notice but you took this rope did something to it and it became this and you see how much it looks like the same thing both of them were miles apart but engaging the same principle and regardless of their location the results were the same [Applause] are we together now now this time would not say like i'm not going to naught because i'm not in coinon no if a thief not this time to dress matanguan still the thai will not say you are a thief in two hours you are about to steal i won't agree no loss loss if a wicked man plants maize and a tongue talking born again agriculturalist plants maize boatlands will produce and in fact this guy may even have a bumper harvest correct loss creates similarity of results so if i want to teach someone else how to be a smart gentleman like this not in times i don't need to tell him come and live with me forever i just need to show him how to convert a rope a nylon rope or a cutting rope are we together now to become such a beautiful object that you can put on your neck thank you sirs so it's not just where you are it's not just your background there is something you do not know you've heard me say it many times something i do not know is responsible for my limitation in life how true how true [Music] the correct understanding and application of laws are the keys to outstanding success we had a great time over at vida we rounded off the meeting yesterday and i'm sure some of them are following was such a great time as god always does in the meetings and i had a little session with the leaders and many of them kept asking me questions man of god what is the secret to your anointing and i in my mind i thought i said if i tell these people now they will not believe it you see that as i'm speaking to you right now somebody in another meeting unconnected to koinonia is still experiencing wisdom and the power of god at the same time you look at a graduate from unm you look at a graduate from abu you look at a graduate from uni lag bring all of them together haven't never met themselves but they were submitted to the same laws they will talk as though they know they've known themselves for years correct that means there is something all of us can know that regardless of where you are all of us will call and say are you experiencing the same result you say exactly i said do you believe that honestly if you don't believe this just go home because it will be that you are wasting your time this night the goal of this teaching is to create predictability to your success exhaust is is success important somebody may be asking me be patient and ask me five years from now remain the way you are and keep going i will be glad to answer you five years from now when you watch what happened to those who are five years ahead of you now when you watch the pain when you watch three children stand before you and say daddy we are hungry when you watch your child become an armed robber simply because of failure then you will ask that question again is success important [Music] it's a terrible thing please be careful how you listen to people don't criticize men of god don't criticize leaders even business experts be careful right now we have all kinds of business experts anyone just chokes himself with thai holding all kinds of hilarious seminars everywhere and teaching all kinds of garbages and nonsense and in the end of it you are so motivated because of the rhetorics and the gimmicks that are used and then at the end of it you find out that your life is just an emotional roller coaster and you get back into square one be careful [Music] i desire to succeed with my life i have tested a bit of it it gives me joy to be able to lead a flourishing ministry i know how painful it is to suffer and struggling ministry i know how painful it is to come and prepare as a man of god and not have anybody to bless today by the grace of god we are reaching several nations of the world and we are only starting i have tasted a bit of the potency of these loss and i know they work they will work for you in the name of jesus christ they will work for you in the name of jesus christ one of i think is i think his patience i support her here she sent me a text very very funny text and she's a student in the school of ministry and i've been teaching them a number of things and then she she went to zamfara and had an opportunity to pray for someone to be filled with the holy spirit according to her she was shaking and wondering whether it would happen and i mean in minutes that person was shaking and blasting in tongues and she called me said my god look at this thing and then she tried it on another person and it worked flawlessly predictability predictability there are keys nobody is born rich nobody is born blessed are we together i say in iniquity did my mother conceive you you can live out like that or you can change i made a decision that i will change it's a decision that i made and i want you tonight if you have not made that decision to make a strong decision i'm taking it gradually with us because i want us to understand this let's define terminologies right we're going to define 14 words that we'll be playing around with in this series 14 words that have been misunderstood i don't want to make the mistake of believing that when i mention a word all of us understand that this is what i'm saying write it down the first word i've already defined it success the accomplishment of a worthy goal am i boring you please write [Music] the second word i want us to define and familiarize ourselves with is failure what is failure write it down that's the second word i'll be very very fast so that we can stop somewhere and pray jesus we bless you failure is a state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective failure is a state or a condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective you are said to have failed when you do not meet up to a desirable objective or an intended objective the inability to meet your desired or intended objectives generally speaking is regarded as failure word number three favor what is favor and um maybe i may dwell a bit here just trying to explain a few things because our general mainstream definition of favor especially in the body of christ is very limited it does not bring out the substance especially when it has to do with favor with men generally we define favor as on merited access you know and that is right we define favor as grace that is right but let me give you three definitions of favor very quickly number one favor means help full stop [Music] favor means what help h-e-l-p help whether divine or human favor means help still defining favor what is favor god and men contributing to ensure that you succeed what is favor god and men contributing to ensure that you succeed that's favor when god comes into partnership with you when men come into partnership with you to ensure that you succeed then you are said to be a favorite person god and men contributing to ensure that you succeed number three what is favor men investing their time credibility and resources to help you achieve your goals what is favor men investing their time men invest in their credibility men investing their resources to help you achieve your goals when a man invests his time that's favor when a man endorses you puts his reputation and credibility on the line to make sure you rise that's favor [Music] when men invest their resources be it spiritual financial whatever it is to help you achieve your goals that's favor never forget these three definitions they are powerful definitions word number four grace let's define grace word number four grace [Music] i wrote something down i had to tear it out of my little note i want to read it for you one day i was inspired and i wrote it down about grace just pay attention as i list as i read [Music] grace as understood by many is seen as unmerited access listen to me this very confusion exaggeration over the powerful concept of grace stems from this one definition okay the very confusion an exaggeration over the powerful concept of grace stems from this one definition a very correct and biblical definition but very limiting to define grace only as unmerited access is a correct definition it is biblical but it is very limiting and sometimes can be destructive grace this is what i define grace as no you i will tell you just just listen to me i'm giving you my contemplation just listen grace is a multi-dimensional reality in the realm of the spirit and in the dealings of god with men that doesn't just refer to things unmerited but realities and provisions that are exclusively found or domiciled and accessed from god in christ in other words the definition of grace is not just limited to things or merited but it is also anything that comes from god are we together now it is a generic expression that attempts to communicate a reality a provision a possibility of things not obtained from the earth realm but from god and only in and through christ now listen i wrote this down this definition allows for other dimensions of grace to be captured and experienced [Music] this morning the holy spirit okay this is me writing permit me i'm reading as i just wrote directly this morning the holy spirit himself gave me the best and most concise definition of grace i have ever heard and known and i'll tell you what the holy spirit told me about grace ready james 1 17 this is how the holy spirit define grace for me james 1 17 please put it up for us very fast let's see how we can gain time james 1 17. this is the definition of grace read it one to read every good and perfect every good gift and every perfect gift that comes from above and coming down from the father of light stop is called grace anointing is grace wisdom is grace promises achieved is grace anything that is not within the jurisdiction of the ethorem that requires coming down from heaven from the father of light and can only be available in christ and through christ is called grace [Music] let me finish this i wrote something down every good gift the word gift there please leave that scripture up let me just explain something the word gift there is the word doses and it means the act of giving and every perfect gift is the word dorema which means the thing given so it talks about both the thing giving and the act of giving are we together now then it says it's from above and all of that now this scripture shows that grace is not limited to gifts alone but the very act of communicating things from god to men is called grace are you getting my point now so that grace is not just a thing you collect the very act of communicating with god is called grace [Music] now i define grace for you write this down grace is the sum total grace is the sum total of any and all things made available to man by god comma i'll take it again grace is the sum total of any and all things made available to man by god [Music] but only in and through christ grace is the sum total of any and all things made available to man by god but only in and through christ so the anointing is an expression of grace prosperity is an expression of grace salvation an expression of grace protection all of these things are expressions of grace look at me when you define grace only as unmerited access then there is no space for obedience to be featured in grace are you hearing what i'm saying now now when you obey and get results it is true that what god is giving you is unmerited in that you cannot receive it are we together now but being unmerited does not stop the fact that there are conditions to fulfill the cheapest thing we get is salvation and even salvation requires a response you use your mouth you use your hands you use your legs you use your tears there is a participation the gift is unmerited but the act of receiving is merited are we together whosoever calls on the name of the lord shall be saved whosoever does not call upon the name of the lord whosoever believes in him shall have life everlasting whosoever does not believe in him is condemned already these are the words of jesus please don't limit grace to just on merit and access grace is access [Music] definition number five let's hurry up works let's define works now that i've defined grace i have to define works because if i do not define works [Music] then there will be a lot of confusion let me i also wrote something about walks here listen to my contemplation about works and then we'll dictate works on the other hand should not be equated with action rather certain kinds of activities look up let me explain to you what i mean many times we have been taught the moment you hear the word walks you just mean ah i'm not i don't have any walks again you are joking you are joking we will walk for the rest of our lives there is walks walks us defined in context to grace and in context of the old testament refers to certain kinds of activities that were captured in the judaic laws and were captured in the commandments that were given to moses that men must do ceremonial activities to the end that they will be able to create a system of atonement for themselves that's what was abolished works is not the same as action action is still relevant for results do not equate works with actions the works of the law are different from walks what was abolished was the works of the law i never will have to slaughter an animal again i never will have to mediate between a priest to help me reach god once and and forever christ has offered himself the fail has been torn that is true but to me there is nothing else to do in terms of action in terms of obedience in terms of partnership in terms of participation is a joke [Music] the bible says we are saved by grace but that system works through faith and faith is not just believing and confessing is the summation of everything you do in obedience to fulfill the conditions that are tied to the results you desire it's called faith it's the word peace this it doesn't just mean conviction conviction first but the actions that are taken in partnership with that conviction to get a desired outcome water walks in the new testament every time we talk of walks we mean one word obedience write it down works in the new testament is obedience works in the new testament is partnership please write this down time we talk of walks we're not talking about going back to the lord ceremonial cleansings and all of these rituals that were captured in the judaic law and then all the hilarious laws and the stringent conditions that the nation of israel had to go through that has been abolished once and forever but obedience will always be a requirement always be a requirement partnership will always be a requirement so works equal obedience to the believer today your partnership towards making promises manifest is what i call works your partnership towards making promises manifest is what we call works we need to define this because i'm going to be playing around with these words and um it's important that all of us when you share it you know what i'm saying number what now let's hurry up i will rush now number six excellence let's define excellence very quickly number six excellence what is excellence excellence means the highest level of quality available write it down the highest level of quality available is called excellence the highest level of quality available is called excellence another definition surpassing ordinary standards is called excellence [Music] so you are excellent to the degree to which you can produce the highest level of quality available you are excellent to the degree to which you surpass ordinary standards [Music] can i continue next word mediocrity what is mediocrity the quality of being average [Music] mediocrity is the quality of being average please participate pay attention to these words the quality of being average what does it mean to be mediocre to be common what does it mean to be mediocre to be indifferent the quality of being average the quality of being common the quality of indifference what does it mean to be mediocre ordinary like everyone else ordinary like everyone else is the attitude of mediocrity [Music] average common indifference like everyone else next definition eight am i right number eight relationships what are relationships write this down relationships are advantageous connections simple relationships are advantageous connections broadly speaking connections but with respect to what we are dealing with advantageous connections everyone say advantageous connections say inside and outside advantageous connections write this down usually mutually beneficial usually mutually beneficial so we're talking about advantageous connections this is my definition that is usually mutually beneficial that means all the parties involved in that connectivity should benefit relationships can be both divine and human write it down relationships can be both divine and human it is possible to have a relationship with god it's possible to have a relationship with satan it's possible to have a relationship with a demon spirit it's possible to have a relationship with the holy spirit advantageous connections number nine knowledge what is knowledge [Music] thank you jesus

are defining understanding what is understanding comprehension comprehension in one word understanding is comprehension [Music] eleven wisdom we're almost there eleven wisdom [Music] correct application of knowledge also means accurate application of knowledge write it down wisdom is the correct application of knowledge also refers to the accurate application of knowledge when knowledge

from tonight i gave you 14 definitions that will be the key between your joy or your pain listen i gave you 14 definitions that will make your church your ministry your group excel or fail i gave you 14 definitions that will tell us what you will become write this down success is predictable i don't need to see your results to know whether you will be successful success is predictable now i can look at your life now and predict with digital precision whether or not you will succeed there are people that look at their lives and i know they will fail it's a very sad truth they will be offended and they will think he's pray are you god and then you see that you really feel failure is also predictable write it down so success is predictable semicolon failure is also predictable i can look at your life brothers and sisters and i can know that you are going to be a very powerful prayer warrior you are going to be a very great world addict but i know that as far as success is concerned you may not be very successful i can look at your life and i know that you are going to be a very rich man you will buy the jets and the rolls royces but you will never be a spiritual man i can look at your life and know that you may be a happy man in terms of finances but marriage will pay a deep price i can look at your life and know you are going to be a very good husband but a very poor and broke man i can look at your life and know that you are going to be a very intelligent graduate but you may be jobless for the rest of your life or you may barely be employed and remain at the lower levels i can look at your life and know you will never rise to a managerial position listen the spirit realm is higher than the natural realm but it's not unpredictable we look at the clouds and we can forecast with a very commendable level of accuracy that there will be rain and it happens a pilot tells you we are landing at five minutes past one five minutes plus one on the dot the tyre is touching the ground we can we can tame our environment with that degree of accuracy what makes you think you need money in your account to prove you are successful i can look at you now and know that even if one million is in your account it will run away as fast as it can you know years ago as i began to pursue the things of the spirit i stumbled across materials that thought on this i folded them with speed and treat them one side look let me press on this how foolish i was imagine that i came for koinonia now and after preaching a powerful message and i'll tell you all of you you are going to sew my mind is not stable i'm i need i need you have to pay my rent i'm blessing you the bible says am b and c everybody stand up worshipping you're bringing fifty thousand prayer band you are bringing one million bengal you are not praying for nothing one million leaders you are bringing two million oh what a cost way of leadership you will never bless anybody being a nuisance that way god did not send me to be a nuisance to you he sent me to bless you yes it will never happen in this ministry where i will say please raise offering for me so that i can eat well you know what we call escape velocity in physics [Music] where you have gone past certain things it's not pride it will never happen again till jesus comes i found my way to better days [Music] i found my way to better days for many of you tonight you're on your way to bed let them laugh at you you're on your way status [Music] prophesy to yourself [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] i'm not just motivating myself for nothing there is a way that can lead a man out of misery there is a way that can lead a man [Music] there is [Applause] [Music] [Music] let's sit down thank you sit down our time is gone let me teach you a few minutes and then we pray now we've had all the peripherals business i want to teach you you just said that you are on your way to better days for some of you you were joking for some of you you were emotional but for a few of you who meant it you know why let me ask all of you now in one minute i want you to cast your mind at the worst thing you have seen happen to you and your parents for some of you is that you were told outside for some of you is that you had admission but there was no money to pay for some of you is that you had to go sleep with somebody somewhere to raise 10 000 and bring back home for some of you is that you even found yourself in occultic groups because you wanted time for protection of success for some of you there are men of god probably listening to me you have had to under pressure joint fraternities because you are hoping that it will give you ministry connection listen if you don't do anything about your success failure will force you to do wrong things if you don't do anything about your success failure will force you to do wrong things when i look at people say god forbid over my dead body i will never do this and that i tell them keep quiet you don't know the pressure that failure forces people pressure can make you do things you never imagined you would do i've shared with you here i think it's in koinonia years ago when i canceled the lady whose situation broke my heart and it motivated my appetite to understand his success her mother true story her mother was working with the boss and the father i think was not working and then they got to a point in their life where they were stranded i don't know if it was whatever it is but it was a very serious issue and the woman went to the bus to plead if she could have a raise in a salary to allow her cater for the needs of the family being the chief voting carer which is very wrong of the entire family and according to what the lady told me she said the boss looked at her own mother and said you are not a small girl you know what to do if you want to raise someone's mother matured lady you know what to do and the mother initially refused but when she went to meet the father the situation the oppression was overwhelming both of them agreed that the mother should one sleep with the man now yeah i know we have we can shout in church i won't do it don't talk like that because the person who did it is not addictive when somebody sits down with the head of a goat all through the night he never planned it that's what treasured when the girl told me that do you know what happened do you know that after the man paid that woman her money the she had to still quit the job i needed when the lady told me i said oh god what is this well here talking to church saying since i was young now i am old i have never seen the righteous forsaken that is such a lie i've seen many righteous peoples forsake you i've seen many of their seed begged for bread we sing it by faith and i believe it but i have seen many righteous people such as our parents such as your brother and your sister you know them they love god they have been dejected and forsaken they forsook laws and good things success is predictable failure is predicted you can make up your mind from today that you're going to start a journey that will lead you into a dimension of success you can make up your mind today that you're going to begin in in a way and a dimension that you have never seen to obey these laws and excel let's start with at least one or two of the laws for tonight ready the laws of success thank you jesus [Music] ready the first law of success the law of relationships right now the law of relationships ignore this and suffer for the rest of your life embrace this and watch your life change as though you are holding the child everybody said the law of relationships shout it the law of write this down success is highly relationship dependent success is highly relationship dependent your success and my success in life is highly relationship dependent number two everything money can buy relationships can buy it [Music] write it down everything i don't care what it is anything at all that money can buy relationship can pay for it money can buy a house relationships can buy a house money can help you build the church relationship can help you build the church listen money as you know my run cover dollars pounds yen these things are not the only means of exchange relationship is correct you can use it to pay for things relationship is currency you can use it to pay for things there are many ignorant people who want to be successful but they do not know the law of relationships so they have to look for money to pay for everything you ask them and they tell you i need 5 million i need 10 million whereas the relationship you have is worth billions of naira in value and it is capable of paying for anything money can pay for there are people who have had to pay hundreds of thousands in a seminar and another person relationship paid for it and he entered free are we together now there are people who have had to pay for rent and others relationship has been paying direct there are people who have had to pay for everything in life listen if you use money to buy everything in life you are not wise [Music] it is a total display of lack of wisdom to use finances to get everything in life it has nothing to do with being rich that's the mistake our parents need i love our parents don't get me wrong some of you here are parents we love you we honor you with all our hearts most people think you only succeed when you start having salary 100 000 coming and they now say wow i have hundred thousand then they have a need they eat no relationships and something that would be cheaply paid for they would have to look for money and pay for it i have paid for many things in my life using relationship relationship like a debit card you can use it and withdraw many other things you can use it and pay for many other things relationships today by the grace of god has given me platforms i am connected to people listen connectivity is a key to success you must be connected [Music] relationships can help you access anointings relationships can help you access endorsements relationships can help you access faithful faithful faithful the major ingredient in success is faithful but it takes relationships we have come with open hearts online the ancient words there are things in my life i would have paid for financially let me give you an example this great auditorium an act of kindness and benevolence by cgc we have never been a single couple for this family and some of you who are into real estate know if you value this and we have to pay every week for all of this imagine the millions of matter that relationship [Music] something in your life that you are hoping to change today is relationship dependence something a dimension in your life you must enter now is relationship dependent unfortunately for many of us all we know is just love relationship husband and wife somebody who likes a lady lady likes it back that that's all that aspect of it your relationship with god is a key to your success correct you excelling life on the strength of your relationship with god the healthier your relationship with god the healthier your relationship with the spirit of god the greater your success the prodigal son please help me with the sound please the prodigal son made a big mistake he broke relationship to make some money are you seeing the mistake of the prodigal son [Music] the potential for relationship he had a relationship with his father and on the strength of his relationship with his father he did not pay for food he did not pay for protection but here's what he said i don't want relationship i rather want money and he ended relationship and got money what happened to the money without relationships your finances will always be finite there is only so much relationship is the secret of continual financial flow relationship is the secret it is relationship that will keep finances i'm not talking about finances necessarily but i'm just using it as a case story relationships people have blessed me today purely based on relationships not even as in the capacity as of a man of god just to bless do you know that somebody in zarya today has the heart to bless you but you do not have the connection are you hearing what i'm saying now somebody has the capacity to pay for your rent without begging and without lying somebody has the capacity to give you free land purely based on relationship during my birthday people did things for me that almost brought tears from my eyes i i usually am not into celebrating birthdays and the rest the leaders did something touching different people did things but there were certain strategic blessings and things they were doing and i said god what is this what is this relationships relationship can give you access to realms where your physical qualification should not allow you enter there many of us have been trivializing relationships that's why we keep hustling the bible says the label of the fool where yet every one of them he does not know the rule to the city by the grace of god i understand the ministry of destiny helpers the ministry of destiny helped us is futile without relationship god has used me as a destiny helper to many god has used many people as destiny helpers to me hallelujah cheap victories that many of us lose cheap victory some of our parents do not know anybody and so you pay for everything and when you want to use money alone to be successful a day will come you will have all the money in your life and you'll find out that there are some things money cannot do are we together there are people you know one of the greatest this is one of the greatest lessons that i've learned from my father my father is a man who was wealthy in relationships i used to think he was just you know you know just someone who just likes people but now that i've grown i have seen the wisdom relationship paid many bills for my father relationships let me tell you something relationship is an investment the same way you invest in business is the way you invest in relationship all this something for nothing is a joke there are many of us we have this self flattery they don't like me you don't call me i won't call you sit down there the day you need the person you don't call that's when you know relationships are important relationships are very serious value-adding investments there are times you will call your destiny helper he will not respond there are times you will send him 100 narrow credit there are times you say sir just to appreciate you you will take out time to compose a text messages as if you died there and he will just send you one word god bless you but he's working the day you now ask for help you have set a template there are people to pay if you ever see their pecs they are begging the moment the need is met they forget the relationships until the day need arises unclear it's me level now honestly he said you're the first to be there you are mature enough to start working uncle where we are traveling somewhere we are going he says don't be stupid don't you ever call my line again most of you when you call your helpers this is what they tell you it's only when you have trouble that you call me anytime anybody tells you that you need to strengthen your relationship many of us have very bad relationship maintenance systems for as long i know many great people sadly some of them even great people i know they don't know how to keep relationships at all anytime you see their call one miss call don't miss call you're in trouble they need a favor they need help some of you are born again tongue talking but you are like that and you have closed doors closed doors [Music] your friend is celebrating a bed that you can never remember say i'm too busy are we together now your your whatever it is i'm too busy it means my friend i love him and you know sometimes you see him and the wife and the two children of course um not everybody who have access to come and visit me that's the privilege of friendship nobody is born with intimacy by default you walk your way into it listen i am a busy person it is true there are many people who say apostle i've been trying to see you what what ordinance do i have to see you what covenant do i have with who to see you i've been trying to see you you are not attending to me that's a foolish statement you should ask yourself those who have unlimited access what are they doing that's the key in time past there were offices i tried to access i shared with you my story years ago when i went to look for a loan i won't tell you the amount i went to look for a loan in a bank these people wasted my time and did all kinds of things and i found out i had brain capital but no relationship capital and i made up my mind some of us the fire is getting hotter by the day and you think the key is to get a job quickly find relationships do you know there are people who are not working but relationship is paying them salary every month until they get a job yes sir i know people like that my mother has a relationship with me forever my father has a relationship with me forever my siblings have relationships with me forever as i rise their eyes is called blessed by association listen once the easiest way to be rich is to find somebody building something great and invest quickly and help the person rise and as you rise trump i talk i'm teaching you listen you see the body of christ people there are many foolish people in the body of christ you watch people when they are starting you are the first to run your mouth i don't believe in them now you have access to them there are people years ago they had access to me they would have been some of the closest people to me today enjoying every blessing but they just saw it today now do you know the door you enter kicking your leg tomorrow you feel it form so now that god gives you the opportunity there are people who use 50 naira to secure a relationship that is worth millions today that's wise investment the day that great man was looking for water you quickly carried your 50 naira the bible gives us a parable i don't have time in the bible where a man oh listen a man was about to be sacked by a king are we together and he knew he was in trouble he had been defrauding people a tax collector now they were going to throw him away do you know what he did he quickly called the people i said how much do you owe so much i reduce it for you ah and the moment they started you went back to them i scratched your back scratch my oats now this is a system that the world uses but believers don't know this coinnonia is very connected to several people you see us connected to the military who are connected to the police who are connected to medical personnel who are connected to politicians because you rise to a network of relationships [Music] you don't know which is not just about being selfish is the way it happens relationships everybody shout relationships [Music] some of us if our parents knew this some of them their classmates today are the ministers in charge of abc no relationship to bless them is that true do you know there are people who sit down today and cause just come they call them one or they are promised where are you i'm trusting god for what comes from this create one committee that doesn't make sense i say sit down there you are the chairman in charge of it when god helps you after seven months okay that's all right it's dissolved just because you must be blessed as my people says how he paid for royalty relationships a man who was crippled are you learning water ask the disciples how they became apostles relationship even when they ran away for three days when jesus resurrected they quickly apologized lord i'm sorry i'm still on your team and they became apostles are you hearing what i'm saying many of you right here you come for koinonia all the time and you have a a resentful attitude this brother you are not you are not my class you are not wearing my shoe rather than for you to sit down say ah this brother is always taking notes god is taking him somewhere he may have one thousand two hundred naira one shoe one whatever but what is entering his spirit is programming him for greatness some of you resent every other person who is not you you are losing you are losing big time in life trust this law alone will bless you i am i am i am a benefactor of relationships by the grace of god god has connected our ministry with all kinds of people there is there is nothing at this level by the grace of god there is nobody within our sphere of influence that we want to meet that we cannot meet it's impossible somebody knows somebody do you know statistically they say you are four people away from anybody you want to meet four people four people there are others who will invite a guest minister in the capacity of his office and pay one billion on already someone else because of relationship he said no no whatever you know i mean we are together i pray for you from the depth of my heart that the power of relationship will show in your life from today please sit down many times you see an old woman carrying firewood on her head firewood that is as heavy as five men she puts it on her head walking the question i ask is where are her relationships this mama is 70 years she spent 70 years on earth and you cannot build a relationship with one successful person listen if you are up to 25 years hearing me and there is no one successful person in your life you are really failing hear what i'm saying you are really failing there is nobody to run to when things go bad there are people like that you are a pastor you want to hold a convention and you are stranded financially nobody in your circle of influence has reason to say please sir cover my shame for me relationships cover your shame [Music] relationships cover your shame [Applause] who is standing in for you who is helping you rise you go to an oil company holding your certificate and you knock at the gate and the gate man says yes yeah i prayed and god led me to come and submit my cv he says bring it as he collects it he throws it inside a dustbin and you go back rejoicing and keep seeing visions of yourself working an oil company till you are past the age that they will receive you because there's no relationship another unbeliever let me tell you this and i said this sincerely this is one secret that muslims have relationships relationships you will hardly see a muslim child go somewhere that his father cannot create that's why some of course i i love them we love muslims and all of that and you find out that there are some of them you see them in your schools they are not even serious because they know that relationship has already had they had a degree before they started so this is just a ceremony for all of that to happen because relationship has created a degree somewhere there is a space that has been created since they were in 200 level waiting for them to occupy but believers don't have that wisdom i show you the life of god versus the principles of god are we together [Music] there is no day in my life that relationship does not bless me there is nothing i say it may god forgive me if i'm lying but it's true there is no day in my life the relationship does not bless me you cook by yourself you wash your clothes by yourself you intercede for yourself no relationship nobody seen anything about you to pray for you by yourself you are looking for favor by yourself they drive you alone you walk a load you cancel yourself you motivate a power save relationships say the law of relationships i made a statement years ago and i repeat it every once and again that we will all be great right and the greater part is that we will all know ourselves [Music] [Applause] praise god sorry about that some of you here um will never have any helper do you know why you are anti-friendship your persona is anti-friendship you are resentful you are rude you are carlos you are very very offensive in your approach turn and tell one another good evening and somebody turns and you are looking at the person you are not my class stop that oh listen he that once friends must first show himself humble yourself in this training ground when nobody knows who is full it's only god that knows whose destiny you see me hug people here some of you see me hunger little children and you think that uh i'm just hugging them i will continue to hug them because at their age we're not thinking like them that means most likely they will be better than us at age 12 some of us were absolutely foolish these children at age 12 pray in tongues love god join prayer department some of them i mean look at the destiny like an arrow and you are missing an opportunity to invest you now come when it's too late when the person has become a big man do you know there are people who call my phone all the time sending insults as an apostle uh whatever it is they call you you are claiming you don't know me i said i don't know you i don't know you i don't know you don't bully me i don't know you listen when you celebrate a great man when he's great is too late you came way too late you don't celebrate greatness when greatness manifests you celebrate greatness in the process you participate in it that's why i'm excited for you because i have the privilege of participating in your success how in the world can i feel listen with all humility there are people today by the grace of god that i have raised who will never allow me beg for pray till jesus comes even if i decide to be jealous and i i stop obeying any law of lifting you have sat down on on a you know how they do what they call it let me not talk business here all those businesses that you do you sit down you bring somebody and you keep rising that's how you can sit on a chair and keep rising like that forever because you paid the price to kill someone are you sure what i'm saying now question whose destiny are you investing in today question who will remember you when he gets to the throne if you are not there when i'm in the cave don't expect to be there when i'm on the throne if you were not there when i was on the cave don't expect to be featured there there are many lousy people in the body of christ with an entitlement mentality you hear them say i knew you i knew where you were nothing what did you do about it when i was walking my way when i was hungry did you ever give me water you were part of those crumbling and talking and now that rejected stone has become the street cornerstone you are now seeing the man of god in glory and power and you are saying we are colleagues we are not colleagues no sir listen be careful and don't let men bully you with their complacency and their inability to invest in your relationship anybody who does not think you are what a good relationship should not be found in your future there are people listen i'm rounding up there are some of you many people who would have lifted you look at you now and they think you are failures because of what is happening they just about you sometimes you hear it sometimes they say to your face but they don't know what it is that is happening and then when you rise you see them come with entitlement mentality you should give me a house you should give me a car and you ask them why they say because i knew you before no sir everybody who believed in me when i was nothing is impossible for them to fail in life because they took a risk by believing in someone they never saw any result and now their risk is yielding dividends so it is not wickedness when you see somebody bless somebody there are people in my life no matter how foolish and stupid they become i'm bound to them forever because they believed in me when i was nothing [Music] rejoice not over me my enemies for though i fall yet i will rise again are you telling what i'm saying some of you in the whole of your family nobody believes in you they've told you to your face you will not amount to anything obey these laws and watch god shock every one of them to their knees [Music] apostle i want to be blessed what are you doing i just need hundred thousand to start a business who fooled you that that's all it takes to succeed you see that you have two tears of rice in your house it can pay for a growing relationship you can cook food invite five of your friends and say look just to honor you guys i know that i don't have much now but i just love you after 10 years they will tell you remember that our rice now enter this five-star hotel let's now eat my own version of the rice and someone looks at you listen someone looks at it and say you you shouldn't be in the palace you say i paid for it since i paid for the palace when i could afford it i show you wisdom keys that men are using to climb ladders of greatness so you can see somebody in the future come you see somebody in the future no charisma no anointing yet favor will never stop leaving him everybody knows him we're about living with that today and a man of god who also came for administration the man of god came for administration i was about to enter the car let's go and then the protocol stopped me and said please i need to attend to him i turned to him and i said hello sir i don't know you he said sir you don't need to know me i came for administration and i had the way around i stopped the guy was holding a seat in his hand say relationships [Music] there are people who will be talking who should we live here and somebody will say please i have one daughter i have one son not my biological child but this child is so well well mannered very lovely person the person did not read this cost but that person has character and they send for that person quickly you see people who read something that has no business with what they are doing yet they keep rising to be directors relationships keep promoting them tonight we are going to pray i will stop here no one will continue the remaining next week there are plenty lots i will share with you the easiest way to succeed is to invest in relationships relationship is a stream of income when you are writing all your streams of income right relationships [Applause] it will cost you now because under relationships you don't sell anything you give for free sometimes you need to be full investing in relationships some of you after this meeting you need to go and sit down say lord who are the five most valuable people in my life and start calling them sometimes you don't even need five you just need one and say sir do you know there are people in my life who send credit all the time they don't have much he may be hundreds i'm not saying you should do it but i see the passion they are making to establish a relationship with me billy graham we talk about billy graham as the great evangelist do you know one of the reasons why he was great he had endorsements of every president before that happened it was said every time billy graham would write letters to members of parliament and the president of the united states wanting meeting with them they would throw away the letter he kept doing it and one day just one person attended to him a day will come the door will open don't think you will knock one sunday to open you see the thing about relationship is that because of what you are looking for sometimes it will have to sting your ego don't be embarrassed pay the price that's the price for the value you are looking for i see a number of men of god sometimes they want to see me maybe for a meeting and they come once twice and say please what is the big deal about this one please we are all equal before god and i say what an unwise person i have pursued men with anointings i have humbled myself i have stayed for weeks and months just to encounter people and the encounter was not more than two minutes because of value i have pursued on common mentors i have spent money i have sown seeds i feel so seeds into the lives of people to maintain relationship what have you done that you are complaining there are people just to stand after service and be patient everybody's pulling their mouth it's too late apostle i need to see you specially um um and i said look look i may not have all the time and then you see them frowning let's respect value no great man needs you you are the one who needs him so you must pay the price pay the price when i meet people who have what i look for i don't go as apostle joshua sermon if it means me sweeping the office you've heard my testimony of when i wanted to take a trip to the u.s to go and scrub the toilets of child san francis hunter i was not going there as colleagues i wanted to once crop their toilets for two weeks it paid me when they died and i didn't meet them relationships how do you travel to u.s to go on scrub toilet if you can you snap yourself scrubbing toilet and put on facebook and say it is a lot to me most people who don't understand this will say look at how this person is disgracing himself [Music] never be embarrassed to invest in quality destiny relationships there are useless relationships that are going nowhere cut them this night i release the grace on you there are people who are going nowhere and they are forcing you you come around them you don't love god you don't think you don't plan you don't do nothing and they say two weeks you've not leave them all love is a command relationship is not choose your friends it is within your power if you are not going where i'm going i love you but you have to stay we can greet in church we can greet around but you cannot be my destiny friend not having my convictions a man who has to make you change your conviction in his presence is not a destiny friend leave them who are you believing in right now that you have not seen anything in their life who are you believing right now some of these people some of them are outside they may be sitting smelly clothes they can't afford perfume dawn clothes but they are receding you can reject them because of the privilege that you have and tomorrow you did not know that that was your governor you were kicking away oh jerusalem jerusalem you did not know your time of visitation your time came and you allowed it to pass you were going to cry to god tonight father i want to engage the love relationship stand up please pray rise up on your feet daniel chapter 1 [Music] open our eyes oh god daniel chapter 1 help us grant us grace someone is walking in undeniable realms of favor after today in the name of jesus christ i want to share with you something very powerful how do you secure favor with men in the third year of the reign of jehoiakim king of judah came nebuchadnezzar king of babylon unto jerusalem and besiege it verse 2 and the lord gave jehoiakim king of judah into his hands with part of the vessels of the house of god which he carried into the land of china to the house of his god and he brought the vessels into the treasure of his god verse three and the king listen now speak unto ash bennett the master of the eunuchs that he should bring satan of the children of israel so the king is inviting some people to stand before the king hallelujah and the kings and of the king seed and of the princes verse four everyone read one to read children in whom was no blemish but well favored and skillful in all wisdom and cunning in knowledge and understanding science and such as ability take notes in them to stand in the king's palace it takes an ability are you seeing that he said those who have what ability to stand in the king's palace and whom they might teach the learning and the tongue of the children let's stop there look up there is a mystery to securing favor with men and i want you to get this very straight there were many people who were captured but notice what nebuchadnezzar said he said there are a kind of people i want the king that we captured now i want all the people that walked in this palace because they have been trained according to the life of royalty bring them i want certain choice guys that came from israel there were certain things that the eunuchs were looking at brothers and sisters there is a price to secure favor with men can i tell you something favor is the currency to get money [Music] think about what i said very carefully favor is the currency to get money write this down please the ultimate key to entering the realm of favor with men [Music] never forget this for as long as you leave if you pay attention to this we will celebrate together as the great ones in the future but you neglect this you will be part of those quarreling those who will be the great ones listen the ultimate key to entering the realm of favor with men is to possess the ability to provide solutions and solve their problems write it down the ultimate key i'll say it again to entering the realm of favor with men is to possess the ability to solve their problems and provide solutions oh write this down solve problems then write three ellipses provide solutions let's discuss this briefly when i solve this would tie it up by showing you how god announces men in the kingdom the ultimate key brothers and sisters hear me every man in scripture who became great became great because he was favored he found favor with men and every man who found favor with men had something to exchange for that favor is someone getting what i'm saying joseph would have died in the prison if he never had the ability to interpret dreams daniel would never rise to reign in a strange land through the dispensation of three kings if he had no ability to solve problems i say this all the time and some of us neglect it write that word down ability ability this is your key to finding favor with men and entering the realm of greatness gender notwithstanding background notwithstanding edge notwithstanding nationality notwithstanding until you solve a problem you remain insignificant and unnoticed if you are not providing solution brothers and sisters nobody needs you the world is so desperate for solutions they will only run towards the direction of those who are solving problems the greater problems you solve the greater you become magnetic please understand this if you think you will people will invite you into their presence just because they like you or because you are a christian you are dreaming wake up hello you know many of us have this funny understanding that because i'm serving god one day great men will call me start reading your bible very carefully and you will find out that no great man appeared before the king just like that there was an ability that qualified him to stand before the king i have a question what will qualify you to stand before men who can honor you and bring you into greatness are you getting my point the reason why you may be insignificant as you think is because your ability has not brought you to a position of notoriety please hear what i'm saying all men are equal but their graces and abilities separate them and make certain things possible for others your ability that anointing that skill that grace that gift is what you will use to access favor with men there are people today by the grace of god who have come to see me and i know that if not for the grace of god there is nothing i will have in exchange for the level of the honor of those people not at this level of my life are you getting what i'm saying there are offices and places that i access today and bump into those people and i know the level of great men in themselves who cannot access those offices the gift of a man can make room for him and bring him before great man your gift can add to your age your gift can qualify you where you do not qualify and the king sent for joseph and they brought him out of his dungeon we must understand this then i will show you how god leaves people in the kingdom say in the name of jesus i have an ability that will bring me before great man say one more time in the name of jesus i have an anointing i have grace i have an ability that will bring me before great men i have entered places today that my father may never enter perhaps i have entered places today that with all humility my contemporaries maybe may never enter their lifetime because of the gift of god look when you possess this ability they told jesus they said all men seek for thee all men they will pay you for it they will pay you in millions and think it's a privilege that they are honoring you and you will be surprised you're wondering my goodness but there is an ability and because they need it they will look for you there are seven billion people in the earth but more than 90 percent of those people are looking for solutions that's big business brother if you come become a solution provider you become magnetic see the darkness in nigeria look let me tell you if you have a ministry that spits saliva on people's face and they get you spit it on 20 people and let them get healed and you will see the level of intelligent people who come and stand for days waiting to be healed many of us do not know the level of darkness that is upon the earth please listen the spirit of god is moving in this place right now because i want to share something very powerful there is an anointing you have that can bail you forever there is an anointing the ability that makes you to stand before kings you will not be the one looking for them the gentiles will come not to you to your light that's what they want not you if you think people who come because they like you there are many people who come for koinonia not because they like me you will be amazed to see how many people came to jesus king of the jews you are this and that when it looked like jesus ministry was diving they said i bet crucify him let his blood even be upon our head please listen let me just advise you if you think you have a crowd or people love you because of you there are very few people in your lifetime who will love you because of your personality many people will love you because of what you carry are you getting my point [Music] there is this treasure in earthen vessels so that you will end some things in your life i will never be a failure in this life forever i know it i know it rich men have problems that i can solve [Music] ah yes yes great men have problems that i can solve i cannot solve every problem but brothers and sisters there are problems i can solve now watch this let me explain to you the equation what i call the equation of greatness you will be so blessed just give me a few minutes and we'll pray now ecclesiastes 9 verse 1 media project it i love the lord when i did this study my heart dropped i said oh god i'm sorry for all the times that i kept blaming you for so many things ecclesiastes 9 [Music] 11 verse 11 did i say 1 11 please verse 11. everybody please read i returned and saw under the that the race is not to the suite not the battle to the strong neither yet bread to the wives nor yet riches to men of understanding nor yet favor to men of skill this is a mystery we're about to discuss now everybody read it but time and chance i want to show you the mystery of greatness listen repeat this last class again one to go time one more time for time and chance happens to who how many everybody now replace the word chance where are we now okay but time and chance replace the word chance with opportunity are you ready now one to read i want you to replace the word time with the word seasons are you ready now one to read but seasons and opportunities happen to them all but seasons like the hand of a clock it has been designed by the sovereign art of god that for every man upon the surface of the earth there is the tuning of the end of the clock and that one day time and opportunity will always happen to them [Music] holy spirit time and chance did the bible say it happens to some happens to everybody that means there is a guarantee please listen somebody's deliverance is coming there is a guarantee based on the word of god that a bear must come is god is god where time and chance you know how they do cooperative society five of us bring 20 20 000. it's now your own tone it's now your turn and i start smiling although it's not my turn because i know that my tone is coming for sure and the bible says time and chance so in the equation of greatness we are bringing the constant factors and then work on the variables we are doing a little mathematics here are you getting my point it says time and chance this one no devil can stop it no herbalist from your village you don't need to pray about it is that time if you are under the sun time and chance happened to them ah i show you a mystery [Music] ah so time that means a time will come in my life whether i'm prepared or not whether i pray for it or not whether i fast for it or not a time will come where the hand of god will navigate opportunities whether i see it or not is irrelevant god's justice must be done therefore the bible forewarns us is a revealing the time now that you know that a day will come this is where a lot of people miss it we keep focusing on looking at the thing the bible says it will come remove that in the question of your preparation for greatness and begin to focus on taking advantage of that day it will come the equation of greatness let's look at um okay greatness therefore in the kingdom comes by number one god imagine seasons and opportunities together and then number two you finding favor by securing that opportunity i'm going to explain myself let me have somebody please okay everyone come hallelujah watch this let's assume this is spiritual timing and according to god's justice system okay stand here that this time is going to keep moving are you seeing it now and that a day will come it may take a long time but that a day is going to come when it will come to iran and if aaron misses on that opportunity it will keep moving again are you getting what i'm saying that's why if god wants to help you in life he restores yes not what you lost yes he tries to bring back the time so that the mistake you made you can remedy it he never said i will restore the goods because they are not necessary once there is time and those seasons is somebody understanding what i'm saying now the problem with the body of christ is that we all sit down being distracted at looking at the clock and waiting for the day it gets to our turn rather than getting busy to sharpen that ability so that the day the time comes you will enter the presence of greatness once and never come out again forever every man in the scripture that became great waited for that kairos moment joseph was in the prison but he knew there is an ability to interpret dreams it's only a matter of time the brother sold him he said no problem pharaoh's wife lied i wanted to rape her no problem they threw him in the prison but when the season comes that part of the equation is god that starts moving that's favor with god are you seeing that now god made it in such a way that the one presser had to do something wrong to go to the prison so while he was in the prison the divine transaction started happening and the one pressure came out although the one pressure forgot about him but a big king let me tell you it does not take two days for you to enter greatness read the bible it's always happening one day there is always a day called one day except john remain in the wilderness until his season of appearing very john was sharpening himself in the wilderness when the season came he came out and he completed his assignment one time jesus for 30 years was preparing for a season of 3 years 30 years read all the books knew all the law did everything and there was flawless victory within three and a half years so there are many of us sitting down looking at people's cars and say man i like this jeep goodness ah bmw this and that ford explorer 2014 limited edition look at that foolishness we are there claiming i claim it time and chance your turn is soon coming create an urgency sharpen the night sharpen the anointing sharpen the healing anointing one day see let me tell you you may say there are many people the bible says in israel there were many widows but to none was the prophet sent god will send people specifically to you [Music] and when you take advantage of that season that is it you are open to a dimension of grace i have studied almost every great ministry i admire and i found out that in the history of that ministry something always happened something happened at the kairos season and the men launched into it with revelation and boom never to return again are you are you getting what i'm sharing with you ah i feel the anointing of the spirit if you sit down and you are wondering kai this house one day we are coming when will this come no no no you never see me bother you insult yourself when you do that [Music] many young people here our dream is car right car let me buy car and you are trying to save how much can you save for the car you want i'm teaching you a higher law get out of all those those those ways of frustration and misery that's why many people cannot give god glory they suffer for everything in their life come and adopt the kingdom's way there is a higher dimension there is a higher way believe me look let me tell you i'm a businessman i've read many business books so don't you think i'm just talking nonsense i know what i'm saying hallelujah when that kairos moment comes in your life when it comes in your ministry some people are snoring through the night the time will pass they wake up and an opportunity that took 10 years has just passed before to come back again the first one is graduating from the university he has not learned his lesson after 25 years it comes again comes in the name of jesus let restoration happen and by the mercy of god the time is reversed it comes again the same lack of preparation keeps bringing people down are you seeing why it takes more than receive it to walk in this room you would thank me in the future for what i'm teaching you i'm teaching you the way to a superior life so that you stop blaming your parents and say if my father only accepted this job stupid man would have been out of this leave your father hello god is bringing you to a point i don't care what degree you graduated with i don't care there is a problem listen if you solve a melonia's problem you have access to these millions it's as simple as that i'll never be a failure in this life never so every time i spend in prayer i'm sharpening my giftings for that day a day will come when that season comes god will send a great man who can sow a seed of hundred million nara to calinonia the person will be dying of tuberculosis or something it's like that that's how it works there is always something you can exchange for and god will make it in such a way that on the day he's coming somebody will be bringing coin on your messages that one is god's part of the equation while that is happening i'm praying in the secret place greater wisdom oh god you can sleep in the night and not know that that is the last time you will sleep in that room hi if joseph knew if joseph knew all the people in the prison would have cleaned his shoe and said okay it is within your build me imagine the guy that bob joseph when he was saving joseph little did he know he would have earned himself a position forever imagine those who are with the priest in the prison with the passenger the night he will come out if they had known that he will just come out never to return they would have said augusta let's pray father bless this man so that at least you remember them beware of people that you keep mocking and saying you are not peace you can't speak english very well you can't do this and that and that beware let me tell you you know why because if you are not if you don't take time please look at me let's just focus god is just doing this thing if if you are if you don't pay attention can i tell you the truth a day will come you will find out that the same person you saw today you looked at i said mary what is there you will open an office that you feel from for two weeks there are people today who are angry with me they are angry with me because there were times when we could access one another and at those times they could say a lot of things call me when they wanted but i was doing something they were not doing we were all laughing and choking and today because of the difficulty in reaching me they pick offense it's not my fault i refuse to remain at that level i intend to grow be nice to people today let me tell you brothers and sisters for those of you who look at people in calinonia and when we say greet one another you just turn you don't know who you are on time and chance he may come from a poor family he may have one ton sanders but let me tell you time the word you are sharing is sharpening you for that time a day will come there is something god has put in you this is the justice of god this is why every man can be great time and chance happens to them all the day it happened to our parents they were not prepared they were there talking about others criticizing others and the clock passed and it went to one drunkard who just got born again and saw the time took advantage of it and they said is this not the boy on campus that was drinking he was drinking but he did something with his opportunity now he's a billionaire he's a pastor he's advancing the kingdom [Music] let me tell you something that happened in 2008 i believe i was in accra for a retreat and something happened [Music] no hallelujah think 2007 or so i was in aircraft for a retreat praying and seeking the face of god for the things that was going to do and while i was praying my money had finished i had nothing not even to eat not even to pay for the hotel where i was having the retreat for that night i finished praying i was reading a book within the gates say divine revelation book when i read the spirit of god just told me stroll around and i came out i started strolling i was walking like a full time and chance i want to share with you testimonies now the holy ghost just said just keep walking i was walking like a fool i didn't know where i was going up to 25 minutes i was just walking the next thing i saw a signboard welcome to our crash city campus and the holy ghost said enter immediately i entered the first person i'll meet is the src president and the guy listen the guy looked at me and the moment he looked at me and said how are you sir when he shook me he just took his hand he said jesus he said can you come to my office miracle number one listen listen true story i want to tell you i know what i'm saying i'm not just making noise when this guy brought me to the office we didn't speak more than five minutes he started shaking time and chance and they ordered a meal i first had the meal and then we attended their fellowship i sat down quietly after they attended their first life the campus has friday fellowship when they finished i went to his office watch this the moment i started talking i started talking at about 2-4 we rounded up that meeting past nine when we started talking the university esco started coming to the office one by one they would come this one would fall under the anointing i remember it was in that place i inaugurated the prayer group that prayed for the campus in akra in that across city campus on that day i'm still in touch with that gentleman a thing his life changed there was they have their prophets like their maybe what you would call an fcs president yes after the the president would finish he invited me again to akron i went to minister in a program and it was a powerful and explosive program i was even on radio the radio and they did an interview i think that was when we traveled with bala alex and a team of other people listen that's not the whole story when i finished that night the people came together past night they raised an offering of maybe equivalent in naira now of maybe 30 000 and they did me i didn't even know how to find my way back they directed me i found my way paid for that night and i had a very good meal i said it works i remember in the room i was screaming i said come on not it has equal value in any land you don't need to know nobody all these godfather nonsense let me tell you get out of it right now if god is on your side there is nothing nothing you cannot get listen the night i was supposed to leave those guys started crying because they would come and visit me in my hotel it was within three or four days their lives changed they said what sort of person i taught them on the kingdom it was an unusual open heavens so the last day they invited me again i prayed with them strengthened all the people you know blessed them they had impartations and all of that and they raised me money again an equivalent of maybe says 50 000 and then i returned back who would have helped me i don't have any uncle for the gift of a man the time and chance is god's own equation leave it for him god is speaking to someone tonight you have been crying and saying lord when will it come god says forget about the issue of when are you prepared are you saying that god delaying seasons is a lot of his love that thing you have been calling delay you are not prepared if it had come before this message you would have blown it only for it to come back 10 years you open it up nobody is coming god is saying i don't want you to miss be careful what you call delay some things may be the hand of god your job you didn't get the job god said i don't want you to struggle there is something you can know you go for a job in four months you have become one of the executives it does not take time if you can solve the problem you will rise to the top all the days of my appointed time i will wait but while i wait i will sharpen the knife i will pray in tongues while i wait i will keep studying the word i know i'm going to stand before kings i must have contents to give them i won't talk like i'm talking before weak man i will stand before president and there will come it will be a privilege to air coinonia and they will come we will not just have one or two tv stations there will be many one billionaire can sponsor it for years but while that time comes we will pray we will fast we will transfer let them call you fool because there's no car what is car see a man came to mike murdock because of something that he did he was begging mike moodle to buy a car for him my mother said i don't need it he said i entered a covenant with god that every year till you die i'll be buying you the latest ben's car one day i was passing around abuja and i saw all the mighty houses they were building around my tama and the holy ghost told me do you know how many of your houses are here no i'm serious god told me he said you will only build in life just for the formality the gift of a man the owner of that building will need me one day darkness is a mystery that announces life the world will be through back one day they will need the anointing they will need it i'm telling you many of you have not been respecting what you carry i know i know what i carry is an anointing of the spirit the nations can never never never they can never deny the effect they may not like me but there is an anointing so i reckon that the sufferings of this present time i'm trusting i may believe i may so gary but there is an anointing my father could not enter but there is an anointing there is wisdom there is the gift of god and i will increase your greatness and comfort you on every side there is a price to pay i don't blame anybody for where i am i take responsibility stop insulting people for where you are take responsibility i share the lord i have faith in him i'm a titan i'm sure that i have favor with god that means arranging the seasons is a done deal what is left now is to sharpen my ability higher i may not speak the kind of english you want but when i say it an anointing will leave you can deny my english but you cannot deny the anointing there is something see this is what i'm training you to become there is a sharpening you may not see it now the world will need you [Music] [Applause] you will collect a salary of maybe a hundred thousand for your boss who saw a seed of five million to get out of trouble [Music] how your ability listen wasn't going to pray your ability to maximize the moment opens you up to untold realms of greatness look at me [Music] aaron is here let me share with you his testimony permit me aaron a beat for years many of you know how skilled aaron is for years the kind of job he was trusting god for would not come i know times when things will get a bit painful for him and we kept encouraging he will be listening to the word of god but time and chance a season just came brothers and sisters supernaturally he got a job too he got connected with the deputy governor of cardona state within how many months iran that within two months they moved into one had a unity in jos now he heads a unit in just and we're only counting see i think there's one of our ladies here two of our ladies that i know the moment they graduated they have not even served they just call them to get jobs you may not value what you are receiving don't let anybody fool you and make you think you are wasting your time a day will come the price you are paying now is what your colleagues will be paying in the future you are already paying it now you may look like a fool some of yours you are going back home now they will insult you and say we are not seeing the fruits it does not yet appear but time and chance will reveal that i'm not praying in tongues for nothing hallelujah this year let me give you the last story and then we'll pray this year i was in ibadan we we all went to ibadah and when we went they launched us in one of the best hotels there and it was irima victor and um sam they sent me a text in the afternoon they said we're swimming and we're enjoying and then i looked through my window they were playing table tennis they were swimming you know they were enjoying themselves all snapping and enjoying and i looked and then i remember the story that same hotel listen in 2007 i went to that same hotel for something but i could not pay for any room because it was very expensive listen to me i still had the anointing but time and season had not come i went there i still saw the arrangement i sat down there there's the reception there brothers and sisters i was looking for a place around that vicinity where they were doing night vigil it was a friday night so i will attend the night with you because i had no money if i touch anything i would not have my transport back are you hearing what i'm saying that same hotel somebody would have looked at me and said oh what failure fire mistake big mistake you don't need to respond to those who think you are failures because you went to the board and you saw five carryovers and the devil says see tell him no you see just keep watching time time time yes you may have an extra year write it and move and thank god because in that extra year you are still moving ahead see if a plane is moving forward even if you go back to the restroom you are still moving forward because the plane carrying you is moving forward i stayed that night till morning no passing no nothing and a few years later there is a protocol of people together with the wife of the police commissioner of the state we came and we sat with this woman we're still going back i think some sometimes towards the year we're still going back to our place again this woman was astonished the things that god did in any burden was amazing the woman followed us to our hotel room and we kept talking to him almost i think to 12 or past 12 and she brought she said she must show her husband her husband is one of the top police people praise god and she they recorded everything me prophesying and praying for her and she said she must meet her husband and she just brought out a check i did a check of 30 000 or something she said sorry you man of god this is small but can you take this i said oh lord time and chance it's not like i prayed more i just kept doing what i was doing it when when your season comes the same thing you did that did not produce results will now produce amazing results there are miracles that happen in cornelia here that if we were on air people who already start traveling but time and chance don't worry a day will come stop trying to announce yourself there are many people on air getting millions of nara they don't have up to half of sam's anointing continue what you are doing time and chance a day will come god will arrange your destiny help us in front then they will give you 10 minutes to lead prayers that's the day god will announce you in 10 minutes what the spirit of god will do you will have more than 20 invitations come to our conference come for this you are reading business books you are preparing yourself it looks like you have food there's nothing working no office only knowledge people even call you big head don't worry a day will come unto none of the widows what was um was elijah how did he put it now was the prophet sent accept that widow of sarah for the question god is asking you tonight before we pray when the season comes when the season comes are you sharpened enough to make that your last season in that realm will you make the words of your critics become a self-fulfilling prophecy or will you contend they may be seeing the brother and sister pray and they say you know what you are doing don't worry you don't need to answer anybody just keep praying seasons a day came we're doing the same thing but it was at the back of chapel no facebook to capture the picture and show the world that there is the hand of god upon these people but a day will come [Music] so i stopped focusing about cars nonsense house no leave all those things from today i'm teaching you when you sit with friends and they say oh boy where now where will our level change just know that they are wasting your time time and chance it never announces to you that the day is coming you will just sleep in the prison one night and by the second night you are in a palace you cannot account for what brought me here oh i believe it for somebody i believe it for somebody let me bring a word for somebody you may be going through certain things you are killing the lion in the secret nobody knows you are killing the bear nobody knows a day will come god will put you in front of goliath and it will be in the presence of all israel on that day saul will know that there is a baby some of you have anointings to pray that it is to be revealed the world will run away don't look for premature manifestation let me tell you service is the best way to train yourself and sharpen yourself you see all these things people say i won't play

coinonian messages to books i tell you some of them will be bestsellers but until that time comes let's keep preaching the cutting-edge messages [Music] hallelujah two more prayer points and we're done listen immediately we play these two prayer points there are people here who need to surrender totally to jesus the moment we pray those two prayer points as we round up the last one i just

i saw the sun i saw the moon i saw 11 stars bowing to me those who criticize you they will bow it's only a matter of time hallelujah i bring a word of hope to somebody the issue in your life right now does not come to kill you it is the making of great men [Music] there is no money in your pocket some of you have been preached to think that is because you don't have faith is because you have faith every time you pray for the throne a goliath comes when you see a goliath don't cry start smiling that's a sign that a new season is before you the presence of an enemy always ends your current season and opens up a new season for you if there are no enemies in your life i'm afraid of you may your life not be so ordinary that your enemies ignore you [Music] you will remember this day a day will come when you look at these pictures today tears will roll from your eyes because you will see that in a short time god has glorified himself in your life and you will be wondering was it this easy and i was almost missing it [Music] the songwriter says i was right at the edge of the breakthrough can i tell you something i sense in my spirit that the clock is getting close to someone's life i mean it from the depths of my heart as a house i know that we're about entering a season i've been announcing this for months god will not do anything in this house and not revealing to me i'm like a pregnant woman that's why i stay in the secret like the wise men looking at the stars trying to understand what are you saying [Music] because his season will be better and we will only see and wonder and say lord was it this fast [Music] hallelujah we'll take one more prayer point but let's allow those who are saying lord i'm not going to lie to myself tonight i need you in my life please i want
