Overcoming The Enemy Supernaturally | Steven Francis

so let's make a habit of uh calling the name of jesus amen number two some of you guys always tell me that you're so shy to come to the front and give a testimony or say something but the moment you take the mic you become like a lion so i get very confused when you come the front so carol is one of those in the list who's got such a ability to preach so we're going to display all of these champions for god in the coming days how's that amen i don't want your voice to be drown are you listening your voice that god has given you to preach or to share to teach should not be drowned by those who are running it's like looking at those you know if you've been in school where you want to run in a race and you see those who are running faster than you and you give up your dream to run have you been there so don't do that always find a spot where you can speak something for jesus find a spot where someone will listen to you do something find your spot some of our spot is not the stage it doesn't matter whether the stage or the street corner that's your spot just serve it because the lord will come and stand beside you the way he's standing right here amen hallelujah god is preparing our spirit ahead of time for the conference keep that in mind so i pray that you'll devote your time this week devote some time to pray and ask god lord speak to us in a way that i've never heard before help me to go one step forward help me to heal our hearts one step forward and because we have a very and for those who are watching online welcome i keep slipping my mind out welcome and thank you for joining us and be part of god's family here and uh and some of them has encourage us by saying we will be god's family and i don't know how to express that um but uh god bless you because i'm i think we are old school we're not still used to this online family thing isn't it so if you ever get a chance to come to north carolina shelby please come at least once we want to see who this family is amen take some love and take some warm and go back home now and and the thing is about all those who are working so hard the way the planning is being done and i see angeline and all the different committees are planning it's like almost the president is coming but i'm so thankful our king is going to show up how is that so it's not matter who is coming is who we are and how we do things amen we cannot slip our joy of doing things rightly just because well this is a church it is much more the standard is much more than the world because we are ushering in the king because we have a special pastor's component more than 20 of our pastors are coming from different places with their wives many are coming their hearts to be healed to be encouraged to just sit in a same group environment where they can pour their heart and i want to thank god for that to bring healing to these men and women who are in the field amen so you know that we are not just speaking some words to flatter someone or give some lollipop and say it all will be good don't worry about it but these are real lessons hard-earned lessons that mean something to a person is on the field and i pray the same way that god will heal each one of our hearts and give us the extra boost to keep going forward amen and that is why the word of god is absolutely important you may not understand in your mind but your spirit is receiving it sometimes we are so used to getting lean messages based on jesus loves you he cares for you your needs are met you see listen try saying that every day to your children and see what happens after that they'll say mommy i know why you keep saying the same thing every day when i wake up in the morning i know can we talk something else hello but that's the same thing that is happening in some churches every sunday after sunday jesus loves you he cares for you he meets your needs he's always forever with you the holy spirit is in you jesus will answer your prayer hey this all basic stuff i know that teach me more because i want to keep going more the troubles are getting more the demons are bringing complex situations against me i want to go past that basic point and let's go further more you see unless and until you cry for more that more will not be given you got to ask god give me more i'm ready to grow up i'm ready to eat what you are eating remember that's what our children do isn't it and sometimes they will stop eating the porridge or they stop eating the nest what do you feed children and their baby here porridge no baby food i know i have wow baby food nice that's deep what kind of food man puree yes ex thank you sometimes that's a mince meat or chicken you pull chicken and you mix a little bit and you but you know when the children are a little bit growing up they always look at your plate because they want to bite like you they want to eat like you and the moment they are pointing that means somehow in their dna they are ready and so what do you do you give a little bit of what you are eating imagine if we could ask jesus the same way i want to have what you want you have and that's what the disciples did teach me to pray that the way you are praying how is that possible that the father is leading you all the time how is that possible that the father is telling you what to do all the time you said you are the world and you are in earth so if you would ask lord come and teach me more than what i know i've read the bible enough as i would have to but now it's time for you to teach me i know you always have been teaching me but there must be something more you know what happens is we become contagious people who sit with us will become hungry for the lord there'll be something about the church which is so different what happens because when i come there something stirs within me i become more hungry are you with me it starts with us because either people become a cold shoulder they become cold by looking at us or they become hot by looking at us it all depends on what kind of fire we are carrying and if our fire is from god it will touch someone if it's a self-made fire usually self-made fire is only for yourself a few days ago someone came to our property to to check some things out the old school fellows and we were talking about our church and they asked is your church old school a new one interesting i said well we are the old school i said good because i like the hell preaching the fire beaming and the that's the old school i said yeah yeah yeah we are the old school come amen we don't have to preach a fire or burn everybody but if the fire is right at the temperature set at the right temperature it will cook and change and transform us and that's the fire we won we are not looking for an immature fire that's the enemy that will come and pretend to be god but it burns now i want to tell you something listen catholic now before i get into the uh word it's a powerful word the lord gave me uh yesterday i told angeline i've never seen this the way the lord taught me so i want to tell you now you know that in hell hell fire is burning okay hell fires money so many times we proclaim the demons come from hell that means they are very used to hell fire right and you're talking about molten lava that is burning but many times demons who are so used to living in hell fire they react and they scream when god's fire manifests have you noticed why if you already if you are used to hell fire another fire coming on you is not a big deal you can handle it in my early days of praying for deliverance for people and i see the demons they will scream and they cry when i release the fire of god and then it got me thinking if you are so used to fire why are you screaming you see that is the difference when the holy fire comes on people the holy fire that comes from god is absolutely different than man-made fire the holy fire that comes from god teaches you transforms you while god is transforming he takes away that which is not right in your life all at one go we cannot understand that and the word of god the deeper things of god's word is like that when it goes inside your spirit man it deposits different factors and percentage of areas that you need help but it's the same word of god the entrance of your word gives me light correct but light for what it doesn't tell you you say the entrance of your word gives me light but light for what light for anything in any area that needs it if that is true that means that light can be deposited by listening meditating and studying you may not know when you need the battery you may not know when you're going to switch on but when you switch on the battery is all full charge amen therefore it is important when we study god's word we are getting used to studying the deep things of god not just scratching surfacely okay i think three quarters of you have already been in church where you have heard the deepest things of god it's it's not that it's new now you are hearing it from the prophetic slant of it it's not that you don't know keep that in mind so let's go to zechariah chapter 3. we studied about joshua we studied about how the change of garments is important and last sunday we saw that the garment that jesus has for us is already fully made in the likeness of god so when i put on the garments i'm already reflecting the challenge is whether am i worthy to put on the government that's where your struggle is because i'm not worthy and that's why listen carefully sin in us will automatically reject the holiness of god it is not god who's rejecting us sin in us and the south in us will reject the things which god has stored for us i'll give you an example i'll give you a proof you'll find in the book of mark chapter four the sea the the sower sword or rather spread the seed do you remember the parable and it fell on four different types of ground and verse 19 says the seed that fell among the rocks the stony ground because it had no roots in themselves it did not grow well but the bible says the stones that itself rejects the word of god making the soil unfruitful now that's why you have to pay attention if the word of god is powerful in by itself the component by itself is powerful when it enters into me the world in me must be rejected out right but instead the scripture says when the word of god comes the world in me is rejecting the word of god out how is that possible that is why the clue where your heart is that's the power that will be at work some people's heart is just full of the world no matter how you teach no matter how deep you sow the word of god because their heart is always gravitating towards the world when the word of god enters in the world in them will reject the power out they can be going to church for 20 years it means nothing they'll be still on elementary level are you with me but when your heart is given for the kingdom no matter where you are when the word of god enters you enters inside your spirit man it creates a breakthrough it can be in a coffee shop if you see a scripture it is melting your heart and sometimes god is very interesting you'll be crying for something your heart is so broken about something and instead of you going to pray about it your mind will be thinking go to that coffee shop or whatever other shop you went there and there in such a bold letter a scripture was that god was waiting to speak to you and you wonder why must god send you to a coffee shop instead of telling you to open your bible because you're not used to hearing that way open your bible so he speaks to you easy so get excited in the way god will speak to us i mean so you'll find the word of god can be rejected if the heart is not conditioned because the heart is the soil it takes time for the world to be planted and for the time to mature and then you feel the authority now we read in zechariah chapter 3 about joshua the high priest and how the accuser was accusing him some of us can't shake off accusation because it's just imprinted inside it's cemented inside too many accusations of you all through your growing up stages has been cemented inside you that you can't just check it out i tell you what jesus can do he will be like a contractor bringing the sledgehammer and he will break every cement and somebody say do you know what the bible says in the book of jeremiah the word of god is like a sledgehammer hello there is no heart too hard that god cannot break through he said even if you are behind the bars of iron it is written in the book of isaiah even if you are caught up into bars of iron and you cannot come out the bible says god will cut through the boss of iron somebody shout that was a very weak amen for a powerful statement let me try again revine somebody shout okay good we let it and mix it afterwards [Laughter] this is our god he chooses the weapons according to the challenges we are going through so the stress is not on your prayer the stress is not on your authority the stress is not on how long you know how to do it god takes the fair share when he's dealing with our hearts he will help us through change your garment and we talked about wearing the turban why because of the transformation of our mind through the word of god and we saw how supernatural authority will be released when the mind is being transformed how do i know because it's authority there is a scripture that says zechariah chapter 3 and let's look at verse six and seven and the angel of the lord solemnly assured joshua thus said the lord of hosts if you will walk in my ways and keep my charge then you shall what rule my house and have charge of my courts and i will give you the right of excess among those who are standing here now i did not talk about what was the meaning of those who are standing here but i want to pay attention to the word you shall rule your house of course the lord is saying my house if the bodies of your life is the temple of the holy spirit then god is saying if you will walk in my ways and you take control and keep charge faithfulness and obedience these are the two things if you will do that i will give you the authority to rule your house i'll give you the authority the word rule means authority now look at proverbs chapter 16 verse 32 you'll find an interesting scripture the book of proverbs 16 and 32 whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty he who rules his spirit then he who takes a city so what god does he gives us the anointing to rule our lives the world call it self-leadership you will know what to do you'll know how to grow you'll know how to take care of your emotions you know what triggers you what makes you weak and there is a way to know how to work things out in your life that is the ability god gives when the mind is transformed you will know how to do self repairs not that the repairs of others are not important you see you got to balance this thing if not you will not respect others who want to show care and love over your life i know how to pray everybody know how to pray even jesus became so vulnerable at the point in gethsemane he wanted his disciples to be with him now that's this part of jesus we must start working on the aspect of vulnerability when you open it means i need you as my brother and sister if not you're so covered then no one can discern for you keep that in mind the moment you are covered yourself in a shelter when the enemy attacks no one will know that is why there is a dependency on god and there is a dependency on the body ministry amen because people are able to pick up according to the various aspect of what we are going through in life are you with me and so when god says i will give you the ability to rule it means he will he you will have the grace to take care of your life in god and what is the word authority when you are praying there is authority when you are speaking the word there is authority and one of the things that we read la studied last week is that authority is being sharpened by fasting not just praying fasting fasting is the component now some people fast but nothing happens to their spirit men why because it's just their normal fasting they eat they drink juice and they miss a meal it is so accustomed because they are working hard enough they don't have time to eat their meal so what doesn't change your mind will not touch your spirit keep that in mind if your consecration is so flimsy and too easy your spirit may not be impressed the moment your spirit man is not impressed it will not change are you with me that means you are devoting a special kind of fasting this is my fasting when i'm fasting this is what i do now your spirit man will capture it in its memory it is not the normal missing the meal it is not normal drinking the juice this is my fasting moment with god and the spirit man will change and transform now that's the way to trigger growth processes okay when you can rule my spirit now we can know all the weapons and that's the other weak points of a church because we know all the weapons but we don't know when to use it we carry all the weapons because it's like i want this so it's my bag i want this i like this i like this everything is my back but we our spirit man is not strong enough to use it or when to use it so god gives us the wisdom that you will rule my house and that's an important process of growth when you are able to chart your personal growth accordingly of how god wants you to grow and which area that god wants you to grow sometimes your faith is weak sometimes your prayer needs growing sometimes you want to think about holiness righteousness mind eyes because the bible says even a proud look is disgusting against god so you're training your eyes not to have a proud look see god pays attention to every part of our body so you are training every part of it until to a point that you are able to rule the time when you are in prayer you're not easily distracted god says i will give you the right of excess another time we'll talk about the right of excess now this morning tying up from there where the bible talks about an important aspect in verse chapter 4 zechariah chapter 4 and verse 7. now we know this scripture by heart we use this very much when we are in prayer who are you and that's how the bible says it okay i will read it the way it is who are you oh great mountain okay let's do that are you ready think about your mountain anything that is there in front of you it's not your spouse it's not your father-in-law not your mother-in-law are you ready any mountain you are i want you to frame a mountain now you may be thinking buying a house is impossible who are you some official is blocking your uh approval of some obligation who are you are you ready think of that ready you got to reclaim who are you oh great mountain that's one line okay one two three go hey the way you say who are you the mountain will answer you back you must say in a way the mountain must be stunned okay ready yeah if doctor just says it then every mountain will break down that's what okay one two three go time to time you must know how to speak with authority to a mountain that is intimidating you some mountains if you love it enough it will seduce you to keep you small if you come too close to your mountain you'll always remain small remember that come closer to jesus and look at your mountain you look small now don't stand close to your problem too strong you know some people are so romantically involved with their problem to a point when you are counseling them to bring them up no it will not change no that's how it has been it has always been like that it's all okay i've learned how to be with it hello did you marry your problems are you in love with your problems god sends you people to bring you out and you say no it's okay what it means okay what's wrong with you so now the problem is not the counseling point you are the counseling point so keep in mind god loves you more than your problems hello you gotta divorce your problem because that's what happens when you marry it two point when the soul is so amashed together with the challenges that you can't see yourself coming out of it and they're one of the reasons why sometimes girls who grew up in abusive family they grew up in an alcoholic family and they think i will not marry a man like my father or i will not marry a man like my brother and they will do the exact thing why they are so in tune with it they can't see themselves out and what they saw their parents going through for the last 40 years the girl will experience it because you had not enough wisdom to divorce yourself out of it you see you didn't want a change of life you want to have the same type of life i'm listening maybe there are some daughters listening to this because it's not part of my thinking if you are listening god wants to set you free amen true love and prayer you can change now if you're already married through love and prayer you can change your spouse some are married to alcoholic alcoholic wife and god can change if you're already married because that's what you got married to you merit thinking you can change them but human power is not enough if it's a spiritual problem you need spiritual authority amen and so god wants to give the spiritual authority and how it has happened by changing your mind and speaking the word of the lord speaking life into that situation getting the scriptures enough to match what is going on and speaking life into this situation amen and then god says if you will keep my ways now you are speaking the word good if you want me to fulfill the words that you spoke now you need to keep my ways then i will honor your words are you with me if not you can be praying for the world one by one but nothing will happen people will think of you as a long-winded prayer person but have never come to say your prayer came to pass that carries authority now that's what we want to become not giving god holy suggestions what to do but prayers that will change and move mountains amen that is why sometimes i like to read the old school boys writings because they are prayer move mountains when they pray god made a lot of changes and that's the challenge that we have to bring about even here in jesus might king not just empty worship but worship that ascends to the presence of god not just empty screaming but screaming that has power and authority you may think but oh the drama is playing nice drum in in visions i've seen when there is a warrior declaration the drum beats becomes like lightning that comes out to hit the works of the enemy see that is why every instrument has a place in the kingdom of god amen then he said to me then the word of the lord oh like in verse six oh great mountain let's go back up sorry verse seven again please thank you who are you a great mountain before saruba bell so i wanted to put your name don't struggle pronouncing his name are you ready okay are you ready to say your name ready yes yes i'm watching on jackson this time one two three go before hi what are you saying are you ready okay ready one two three go before that's it okay before me through christ you will just you go plain it's not going to disappear but one thing is true a 30 year old loan will become 20 year a five year loan will become two years god will give the grace and favor oh where god is going to bring the money you keep your mouth shut and have faith don't think for god he is smart enough you have the brains to walk through many of us desire but we are don't have the consistency to see through our own miracles we are interested for churches to be strong effective change lives change the city but we are not interested to go inside and work through the processes because it is harder and that is why the key to change a city is not given to everybody sometimes a goal of a church could be building a building and that's it they're gold stops is that what we want no i've seen buildings being emptied out people there become like jellyfish there's no power anymore no authority when they pray and some people think i'm so old but i pray no power no no no the older you'll get the sharper your sword becomes you'll find anna who has been in the presence of god for about 80 years old and when she prays oh my goodness and she prophesied to simeon do you remember and say your eyes will see the king look at that woman she has no knowledge of the outside world i saw the kingdom and she lived in the kingdom but when she prayed there was authority and that's the type of people we want amen amen you can be so weak in the world but yet so powerful in god don't measure yourself by the way the world looks at you you are not graded by the amount of money you have you're not graded by the amount of wealth you have or the type of car you drive and so on and so forth you're graded by who you are i've been to houses when the they don't have enough money when the father and mother comes home the children come and sit and they laugh and they talk and they are the richest person in front of my eyes a family full of love they share and they talk and they laugh together but you know what today's family is when they sit four people sit on a dining table everybody's looking at their cell phone and this has taken over we can't just what if we have some basic rule dining table nobody touches the phone simple as that huh amen who are you you are nothing but verse 6 says this is the word of the lord to zara babel not by mud okay are you ready to shout again three people say yes what about the others you know those who don't shout is the one who must shout by oh today joseph is sitting there look at yourself are you ready one two three go not by might no by power but by my spirit says the lord of hosts god is reminding us no matter how hard you try it is not by your mind lord we tried so hard to build the church yeah good for you but it's not by that mind it's not by the power because some you know human power gets weak after a while you will lose steam after a while isn't it and that is why we must learn how to honor all kinds of teams within a church when the front liners lose steam the back support comes again in the front where the front guys can go and take a rest we must come into that kind of a system thinking we must think in our mind about process way of what god does that someone when they are so burnt out that our place for rest and recovery not replacement tell a neighbor he's talking about you okay good because i find it amusing we are willing to restore and recover people who come from outside but our own church is going through troubles and we have no system in place amen and that is why the preaching the word of god must be strong enough to become multivite to all of us regardless of your age regardless of your growth regardless of your understanding when the word of god comes in all power inside your spirit man it creates a multivitamin action it hits everybody in the different concerns of our life here the bible says who are you or great mountain before zara you shall become plain and he shall bring forward the top stone in shouts of grace grace to it i was thinking twice whether i should sound grace grace because our grace is sitting there the third lesson that we are learning in this passage is how god will release supernatural power when we transform it is a little bit contrary to what we have heard in lesson 101 before all power is given to you all authorities given to you fines and serpents and step on it well to a certain degree there was victory and then we became victims because not all that authority is given to you even though it is given it will not be released to you until you keep god's charge then when you know how to rule your spirit then that power and the authority comes out if not i can put a big mighty sword the sword of king author wow you can buy the duplicate one replica you can buy it wow nice how do they fight with all this way you can't hardly lift it up it is that heavy huh admire the sword the question is whether you have the um muscle i was in japan when i was preaching jesus came and stood up on the stage and he said from today i will teach you how to move your risk swinging the sword that i've given to you i was i froze when the lord said you see because the arm could be died but if the wrist is not moving then you are not moving according to that the lord wants you to swing it even that the lord is willing to teach us then you realize every muscle bone joints and everything is under the command of jesus that is why david said in the book of psalms you teach my fingers for war oh my goodness some of you only know one side of the usage of the fingers hi what god is saying don't all the time say hi this time say hi to the enemy i'm coming it is i'll teach you fingers for war somebody say be excited with the authority that god has given to us he says i will give you power but because the word says it's not by might not by power that means might is important not that it is not power is important not that it is not but both of these twins might and power must be driven by my spirit that's what god is asking you have all the horses and the powerful stallions in your stable but if it's not rained together you will not feel the power of that stallions it runs on its own and so god is saying here i will train you with might i will train you with power but when you subject it to by my spirit you'll become a powerful force where you will command the mountain it will obey that's the type of spiritual power we are praying about now one of the okay i don't know but are you ready or not just say i'm ready okay the other the other person will say please pastor pritchett okay ready yeah one two three go okay okay by popular demand for those who are watching the lord showed me that now this may sound deep but it may not be deep but listen the lord showed me this kind of holy spirit power is not generated by the human spirit by the holy spirit it is not your spirit it's not your power now this redeemed spirit of ours it must be subjected to the holy spirit now what is the redeemed spirit you and i are redeemed you see we are redeemed from god now you can do anything that's the dangerous part when you can do anything becomes more dangerous now you don't know what to do what you can and what you can are you with me the redeemed spirit when it's not under the power of the holy spirit it will tend to sin because he knows the more i sin the more i can ask forgiveness god will forgive me so make it like a habit it will do things behind and well god will forgive me lord forgive me it's not me not you and you know some of them need to go under the psychotherapist room of the holy spirit because when they pray say lord i really didn't know what i was doing are you sure you knew exactly what you're doing so sometimes you ask forgiveness for the things you knew exactly what you did don't keep saying lord i didn't know forgive me are you with me so the redeemed spirit the lord showed me how to keep ourselves pure because no man can or should not exercise authority outside the realm of the holy spirit don't let people trigger you challenge you provoke you to challenge authority of god like an envy process no matter how they talk to you back unless the holy spirit tells you don't be tempted to use your authority sometimes oh you mean god can speak to me well prophesy i'm waiting don't be tempted don't step outside the realm of god your spirit man has the power to prophesy it can draw from god but when you make it a habit of learning from the holy spirit lord do you want me to do if you say no then don't do it if you learn how to subject it is like being in the army in a riot they always pay attention the police in the army they pay attention to the command what to do they can put the magazine in clock the weapon and point if they want to but they are under command you see so we are learning to become people under command amen get used to it sometimes i marvel people they are willing to be under manipulative commands they are willing to be under seductive commands they are willing to be underworldly rulers who control them make them small but the moment it comes to the command of the holy spirit they react it's a holy command get used to it somebody say amen get used to the lord taking control of your life because he loves you enough to take control of it amen you gotta allow the holy spirit get used to the control of the holy spirit do these and don't do that and do these and do that sometimes very interesting when i ask something uh to the husband will you do it he looks at the sight looking at his wife can i do it i don't know if the white say this way okay he says okay sure why not but it came from a side command imagine we have a side command where we are always reflecting back to god what do you think god tell your spouse you are not the holy spirit what happens after this that's your problem okay hey hello guys are watching the online and listen sometimes we fear your spouse more than the holy spirit something is wrong if you fear your spouse more than god something is absolutely wrong spouses must give the freedom for our spouses to obey god without asking you first you and i are the child of god but if it requires husband and wife to consecrate then it must be a common consensus you must talk about it but if it's about you and god is asking standing in front of your redeemer telling you let me go and ask my husband first my wife what you repeat the whole statement again because when i died for you and my father said go and i did it i didn't ask anybody else i did not have your wisdom in asking anybody else i just did it because my father told me more and more as i'm maturing i'm learning the lessons that he did not hold back his only begotten son oh trying to go into the depths of that statement he did not hold his son back now when the spirit man is renewed it has the ability to do things on its own without god and that's the challenge now listen carefully it's a little bit complex in his thinking but it's not if you understand what i'm saying you'll understand why adam sinned why it was possible for if to sin are we talking about at the time certain mysteries of scriptures are not explained some theologians don't wish to talk about it because it just makes the whole sunday service complicated why cannot we talk about stronger scriptures when the world is complicating us huh why how was that able how is that possible for adam and eve to be deceived when god visits them every day how was their spirit what was in front of the eyes now listen carefully are you ready who were the rulers of of that time were there rulers before them were there spiritual rulers adam and eve were the first created being there must be other spiritual beings in the same quarters if not the serpent wouldn't have come lucifer wouldn't have known so if that is true lucifer's kingdom was not really somewhere up there in the sky he was also sharing certain domain on earth where he knew where the garden of god was he knew that god's creation was the best because lucifer thought someone is going to take his place are you following now i'll show you some scriptures to show what i'm saying now adam and eve they were renewed they do not know sin anything yet they were able they had this versatile behavior pattern where they were able to say yes to the enemy now all of us though we are safe we do sin against god in some of us we do it willfully i'm not talking about big deals i'm talking about the simple things like pride simple things like cheating people simple things by giving wrong advice because you don't want your brother to prosper sometimes people don't even want to say where the sale was so that you don't want your friend to wear the same blouse you bought hey when was i say oh it ended last day yeah sure because they don't want you to go to shop the same thing they didn't want you to have the same benefit like you are parading in church but you know what god can command another door to open because he looks at you as a daughter you know your heart is pure you share to everybody but that somebody don't want to say anything to you are you with me and so this adam and eve was there in that situation it was versatile was open volatile and there the enemy came and deceived them now this is the same understanding how it was possible for lucifer to fall from heaven he was the worship leader how was he able to fall from heaven how was that that's the challenge i want to show you in scripture today now if you know this balance then we will overcome the seduction of the enemy for the end times this is what the lord said see remember jezebel's plan is to seduce the man of god the woman of god who is pastor talking about tell your neighbor he's talking about you because not many times you have been addressed as a man of god you're not been addressed as a woman of god if we will overcome this then we will know the seduction of the enemy it is not about the body of believers is about the body of warriors sitting together the enemy can choose any one of us the authority and the impact is the same somebody say let's turn to isaiah chapter 14. the book of isaiah chapter 14 a passage which some of us know well and but we don't want to tackle it and the lord showed me today we have to tackle it isaiah chapter 14. it's 10 45 is it yes daylight savings is over i thought god hold back one hour for me you know okay are you learning something how you are fallen from heaven okay that means there was a position given to him o day star look at his name son of dawn how you are cut down to the ground you who laid the nation's law now the book of isaiah chapter 14 is a dual passage uh it's a dual uh uh um the law of double reference in the theology meaning to say when god speaks about a person he can address to someone else kind of hint speaking it applies to the whole family but we are talking to the son but we are talking like parabolic statement the whole family will wake up what they are trying to say right to the sun or why for whoever it is are you following so it's not difficult to understand here the passage hits at the king of babylon then it also talks about lucifer how you are fallen from heaven just give me a minute you said in your heart i will ascend to heaven above the stars of god now that's the clue ready for the clue lucifer should have been somewhere below heaven for him to say i will ascend to god up there i will ascend beyond heaven point i will ascend beyond the star so he must be in a very low area god should have given him some kingdoms on earth to rule to produce are we talking about the pre-adamite world much more before when adam and eve were created now i know it's a seven days creation but anything could happen in between the seven days creation the bible doesn't say the angels were created it only says about seven days of creation are you following so when this created or world comes into being [Music] the possibility of lucifer having in charge of what god has created so here he says you said in your heart now the question now we want to ask how is that possible you have seen the glory of god you have seen the eternal one you have seen who is the alpha and the omega you have seen the billions of angels worshiping him as the king of kings and the lord of lords how is that possible for something of sin to creep into your heart that you can say in your heart now that's we have to protect ourselves you said in your heart i will ascend to heaven that means you are living on a low life somewhere right number one above the stars of god number two number three i will set my throne on high because he has been put on earth he's looking up all the time how the creation is worshiping god he's looking how the angels are ascending up and down all the time in god but here i am here on earth but i want to go up i want to go through the same level of worship and then he says i will sit on the mount of assembly in the far riches of the north now pay attention to the word north are you ready are you ready so earth is here north is there somewhere on a spiritual dimension on the northern side is heaven an astronaut cannot see because it's a spiritual dimension so almost watching like star wars you know boom you're gone you are into another time it's like going through the milky way by the way they have just discovered when you enter through the milky way there are more than 14 other galaxies that creates an entrance to another milky way that creates another set of galaxies god's wisdom cannot be matched amen so now we know i will sit on the mount of assembly far reaches of the north so there is a location given to us he wants to have the same glamour everybody is worshiping you look at here what i'm doing i'm given in charge of the other works i will ascend above the heights of the clouds now tell me which one is lower clouds or sky from earth which one is nearer to us so he is below the clouds because he's saying i must ascend above the clouds you see the clue okay i will make myself like the most high and all these ways of saying help us to understand what got the corruption into place and when he tried to go up the bible says you have been kicked out from the heavens and you've fallen down when you fell down where did you go straight to the garden of eden now i will take that very creation of god the crown creation of god the same guy who's making the likeness of him it's my turn do you see that so that corruption came into the garden but something about the emptiness now you may think that god did no no god knew it paved a way for the redeemer to come down but today i'm talking to you a little bit on a higher note how we those who are matured here those who are grown in god those who have known so much of deep things of god how you and i can remain pure in our spirit man and keep it humble before the lord if not in this end time you'll be your your spirit man will just look nothing more like a storage house full of authority anointing and but you don't know what to do with it all the things you know you don't know when to respond to god okay are you ready so in order for me to explain to you go to romans chapter 1 verse 9. this was all the download of yesterday as i waited before the lord the lord showed me this is what next time you see there are people who speak deep things of some preachers not everybody who teaches deep things in a conference and not the church we keep the church small and humble and simple but conference we do deep things but in our church is always the opposite our folks in our house get the best portion of the meat how's that i mean the tomahawk have you heard of the tomahawk meat tom hawk or tomahawk am i saying it right so i went to japan with daniel did i tell you this did i tell you privately or everybody no more stories for you i went to japan with daniel and we were working so hard throughout the week man every day my food was mcdonald's starbucks mcdonald's starbucks there was no time because i was so busy with the different sessions i didn't have time to go out and eat and daniel being daniel probably he's watching he also didn't go to eat because i was not eating and sunday our service started at four in the afternoon so we had time in the morning so i told daniel let's give ourselves a good treat let's go to a good steak restaurant in south korea and oh sorry i said japan so south korea sorry and seoul and we were there let's go for it so i booked a taxi we went to the best steak and there they put the menu sir what would you like they open up ha it is written there tomahawk the food for the emperors wow i looked at it i say two of those please thank you and the lady looked at me i said thank you i was talking to daniel about the meetings and all of that the manager comes out excuse me sir did you order two of this say yes the foot of the empress say of course don't we deserve it daniel was smiling i was smiling yeah yeah two please say no excuse me sir do you know how much is it i said don't worry about it no do you know how much he said each is 450 us dollars really i tell you what give me the menu i didn't feel like an emperor at that moment [Laughter] so i ordered two house steaks see this tomahawk always makes me laugh all the time see you need to follow me for my mission trips it'll be love full of laughter and you know not all the time fighting demons you know romans chapter 1 verse 9 are you ready now same situation listen carefully first god has redeemed your spirit man given you the power to do anything on earth all authority is given to you all power is given to you the word of the lord is entrusted into your hands everything you know you can you bind blah blah blah blah blah then you find men of god falling you'll find people falling you'll find demons tempting and you wonder why that people that we know have fallen from the grace and then we get ourselves very frightened lord if they are falling how much more i will fall then paul gives us a clue and the lord showed me yesterday and he said look at this for god is my witness can we all read together one two three go for god is my witness whom i serve in the gospel of his son that without ceasing i mention you so the clue that was given to me learn to serve god with your we have learned how to serve god with our body we have learned how to serve god with our soul our mind is involved but if you want to keep yourself pure from the seduction of the enemy you must learn how to serve god with your spirit now the word serve is another form of dolos which is i'm a slave born slave because romans chapter 1 verse 1 paul said i am an apostle a slave of jesus a born slave of jesus here he's saying i serve god being a slave yet i serve god with my spirit the word serve meaning to say though i am a born slave i still have the freedom to choose to serve him and therefore i choose to serve god in my spirit now the spirit corruption is where the enemy is coming after that means we will know all the authority we will know how to pray we have been church long enough but we will be like a spiritual coma induced by the enemy not willing to move a finger for jesus yet we have grown up in church they are willing to do anything for the world when the world tells them but when god says something in the church or when the pastor whom we should be honoring and the house of god let me pray about it pray about what tell me you're talking about the house of god what are you praying about your in your obedience will be that double instant because it's the house of my king are you with me are you with me or not see we must become on the same page bro we must be on the same page when it comes to our consistency when the enemy tries to find a gap to see who to touch we all reflect the image of christ we cannot give him a gap in the garden of eden now decision making becomes so weak and so processes because we are not serving god in my spirit we are serving god in the flesh and we get burned out we serve god with our mind and we got burned out but god is saying keep your spirit man fresh because not by might not by power you dedicate yourself to me my my holy spirit will take over how to build the church let god build it how to walk with the church let god lead us can we be strong and powerful and remain humble absolutely look at jesus our role model is not another church down the street it's not another church which is booming it is the kingdom which the lord is showing to us amen which one will i choose one location 5 000 of 10 locations with 500 i think i'll choose the other one and if god give me the grace five thousand divided by a hundred and we have so many five hundred locations of sorry fifty locations we have sons and daughters who have grown up in this place to become pastors why not i will go for the other one are you with me each one knowing how to serve the glory of jesus is more important than we all celebrate and just look at one guy who's preaching because i think that's what jesus did he multiplied are you with me my brothers and sisters so i believe that because god wants us to walk in the higher level of authority he is teaching us today something more keep our spirit man pure and so when you listen every husband-wife get this straight in your head no matter how pure and holy you are the serpent will come to visit you it will try to find a gap in that relationship and lean and the question is which tree are you leaning on [Music] the tree of life or the tree of knowledge if you're not going to pump out of the tree of knowledge where it's so reasonable to fight so reasonable to argue and after all is said and done learn to love and forgive if you're not willing to come out of that tree and lean on god you'll lose that life are you with me my brothers and sisters it's okay to argue but it's not okay to go beyond this point it sucks sorry really it's lousy man you can't smile in the house you've been arguing all the time and i wonder husband and wife they don't want to go back home they spend on their dog and the dog becomes their most lovable soul i can't say that to my chickens my chickens don't care when i look at the chickens they turn around backpack are you following somebody say amen keep your spirit man pure i think god is going to bring us to another level of authority in our church god is sharpening us for another demonstration of his power keeping our spirit man pure because listen jesus said are you ready if you did not listen to whatever i said listen to what jesus jesus said on the end time false christs will appear and i wish jesus did not say that i wish he said false messiahs will appear and i really wish now this i'm saying personally i brought it before the lord i really wish that you didn't say it what you did because why are you wanting me to choose you and to find out who you are in the midst of all the liars you should kill them down you should put them down let everything else be challenged but not you but you are saying false cries will appear false messiahs will appear then you are putting it into you putting the responsibility back on me to find out who you are to stick on to you and don't be deceived by the other guys who are going to go the gimmicks are you following even jesus is not being spared even christ is not being spared even the messiah is not being spared but the higher level of freedom can only be known for those whose spirit is consecrated to god not just your body not just your mind your spirit man is a higher level of walking with jesus paul said i will not want to know that i will come into the that i may know him the power of his resurrection i want to know him everybody wants to know him praise god the power of resurrection everybody wants because there's a lot of power in it but the third one is not everybody the fellowship of his suffering that third one is the anointing of the highest that one releases the anointing of joshua into our lives where the authority of god remains so fresh in us i've been in a situation i just want to give you this uh example because i'm saying how god taught me how to um overcome this kind of challenges you know i remember the first time i uh wanted to open a bible school in malaysia the the first time that in it was 1997 and so my pastor friend told me in this town in malaysia the way to open up is to have a pastor's lunch it share with them get them to work together so i did i had six hundred dollars in my uh account and i said god i want to host this uh lunch and i didn't know how much they're going to eat so help me that they will not exceed see i i didn't know how to do things man i didn't know that is the limit put the food on the table eat whatever you want you know i didn't know i didn't have the wisdom so i went i was 27 years old these are all the older guys sitting there and i propose this one guy said oh so you're the prophet i didn't say i'm the prophet the other guy was beside me so you have a prophetic school prophesy over me now on the table and the holy spirit said don't fall into the challenge you can if you want to but don't do it so i say no not today another i thought you said as a prophet you can do anything anytime you want to teach everybody so i was wondering instead of the man of god nurturing you they are mocking at you you're mocking at a gift which god has given to me why help me to nurture me help me to understand help me to grow up teach me and guide me that i'll become a better vessel don't wish that i will fall pray that i will stand oh my i felt like crying i felt anger and i kept on saying walking the love of god i kept quiet okay the lord told me to do it and then they start ordering food man the food order was bouncing i don't know whether they want to mess up with me or not since the fella's paying for it let's jack up the bill you know it crossed a thousand dollars now i'm every time they ordered something i went up and said what's the view 600 i had it already crossed a thousand and now smiling and praying and say god i don't know what's going to happen today but i was not giving in to the seduction of the enemy the brother who mocked me the most came up to me and said brother i'm so sorry for embarrassing you the holy spirit convicted me and i'll pay for the bill and i can tell you list after list where god put me in a spot where your gift can be challenged whether you want to show off that you are a prophet you want to show off whether you know how to pray you know how to rule but there were many many many times i've helped others to go forward no you stand i'll pray with you i want to give you another example uh sadhu and i were he invited me for his youth my brother elder brother he invited me for a youth conference in philippines it was 3 000 old people and people came for him and i'm the back-up plan when he's resting i'll take over the session they used to call me the 2pm pastor i was rebranded as the 2pm pastor because at 2pm i'm the one who's going up to the stage because they want someone who's strong and loud and funny because 2pm everybody's sleeping so they call me the 2pm pastor is he here today yeah he's here it was a session praying for the baptism of the holy spirit now i'm very used to praying for individuals and they pray in tongues and so on not not mass sadhu is very used to the mass group thing you know i told him you know i can't do this man it's your team no no you do and i said politely i don't have the notes you take my notes [Laughter] so you send me the notes now i got the notes i say yeah but i still got to pray don't worry god will take care of you my goodness this is just like four or five years i don't know five years ago maybe more than that so so i went on the stage and the moment i was preaching the power of god came a lion came and stood beside me and i knew that is the time to pray for the when i gave the invitation for all those who need the power of the holy spirit man about more than three to five hundred people in the front i looked at my brother i said what do you want to take away no you carry on good job good job say don't worry it's all good when i release my hands and i tell you three to four hundred people were slain by the power of the holy spirit i told him it works it works it works you see it's either you're going to show up or you're going to rejoice in what the father is doing you see do you understand and we cannot understand why david was willing to dance naked and whatever that means because the wife said you are so uncouth you don't even dress up to face the public as a king you're wearing your home clothes and you're dancing you got so excited that the ark is coming you forgot you're the king and this is those moments i could be a man of god but when i saw the power of god coming man you forget yours wow you know and then we go went back home we sat in the room and we were talking i want to know what worked why did god appeared i said i saw the lion in front and when the moment the lion came boom i ran out and i prayed for people he said good that you saw that because what i saw was while the line was in the front i saw jesus touching your shoulder when the fire came oh my goodness how can we pride ourselves that it is because of my prayer because of my authority because of how holy i came i am how anointed the speaker is how dare we will stand even before the mighty god who comes for his people that is why i'm dying to serve god to be given the opportunity to use by him don't get into the bandwagon of pride don't get into the bandwagon of identity who i am you know who i am you know who i am some people ask that three times they still don't know who they are you know who i am who are you you don't know who i am no you don't know who i am hello so three scale modulation is the same question who are you [Laughter] you don't have to be anybody tell your neighbor you don't have to be anybody are we ready to serve god oh it's so good the message is so good come on somebody say pastor please go on oh thank you god two things that is going to come i'm going to wrap it up here i know that i've been already warned don't bring too long we have a lot of meetings and cleanings and i'm cleaning up the spirit come on come on give me some time here richard say preach it brother oh here we go i can't hold it man serve god in my spirit looking few things i want to keep in mind power and authority are the twin turbos of your spirit man it is given to you power and authority both are inside your spirit man now if you know anything about a turbocharged car you will know that turbo will not kick in until you drive to a certain speed and then the turbo kicks in isn't it until then you're still on your normal speed so if you have to have momentum in your walk with god before the power of the holy spirit can take over now because power and authority now no wonder in luke chapter 4 in verse 36 the book of gospel of luke chapter 4 verse 36 it was said about jesus then they were all amazed and they spoke among themselves saying what a word this is for with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits and they come out and the report about jesus ran out into every place of the surrounding nation or region people saw that he was unlike the other teachers power and authority combined was together with him and so therefore jesus what he did in luke chapter 10 verse 19 he said behold i have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy and nothing shall hurt you so now i understand power and authority are twin engines you cannot exist one without the other you cannot have so much of power power is just loud noise without authority jesus said when the demons came you got nothing to do with me out finish when he's praying for the sake be healed everything stopped remember how we are praying for the person who's without the eye eyeballs okay lord in the name of jesus i command the eyeball to come in the socket to go the vein to grow and you'll be connected to the eye so can you give a medical history lesson to jesus taking notes oh really okay somehow somehow somehow okay i'll do it the same way your medical knowledge is more thorough than god you know okay i shall do that the same way jesus said be healed and everything came into pass he said walk and everything came into being imagine we can speak less but our authority is so deep amen we can spend more time praising god than speaking to demons don't interview demons don't ask them where you come from how did you die oh so poor thing you became a demon huh don't waste time interviewing demons don't waste time that's not your job set the person free somebody say amen power and authority so therefore let me wrap it up by saying number one understand power and authority comes together when the holy spirit is at work therefore i learned how to grow in the spirit the way to grow in the spirit is the key for power and authority to at work in you today let me tackle something that i've not said for the one year in the book of jude the book of jude chapter 1 verse 24 oh sorry jude 1 20 1 24 120 and but you beloved building yourselves up in your most holy faith by how praying in the holy spirit the older translation will go building a praying in the holy spirit you'll find that definition is praying in tongues praying in the holy spirit now when you pray in the holy spirit it builds you up it makes your faith more holy and sharpen the holy spirit is active you are feeding the turbo engine that is in you jesus said wait until the holy spirit comes on you with power that is why we are given the task of preaching or serving god and doing anything be as much as you are preparing your texts remember to kneel and to pray because when the holy spirit comes on you your text becomes weapon and emanation in the hands of god amen and number four that i want to remind you number one okay let me put in order number one i said power and authority are twin engine number two grow in the spirit galatians 5 16 but i say walk by the spirit that you will not gratify this desires of the flesh okay number three pray in tongues pray in the holy spirit pray in the holy ghost jude chapter 1 20 number four and that's the last one grow in grace why did i say the word grace because you see in revelation in zechariah chapter 4 they are saying grace grace do you know in the old testament the word grace is really not used that much it's a word used very much in the new testament the same grace word in the old testament appears as mercy but in this passage the word grace and grace is being said therefore number four which is the key point we have to know grow in the grace of god second peter chapter 3 verse 18 grow in the grace and knowledge of our lord jesus christ grow in the grace and the knowledge of our lord jesus christ now if i would just take time to teach you about the word grace when you grow in grace you grow in the anointing you grow in grace you grow in prayer the word grace alone is a very powerful component so please don't think grace are for babies no grace is the only thing you need till the point of death one scripture we close this time is that okay such an anointing today somebody say amen look at second corinthians chapter four the book of second corinthians chapter four now remember every time the new anointing comes on as a new freedom it is always a result of worship chapter four verse one second corinthians now okay put in the amplified bible please therefore since we do not hold and engage in this ministry but therefore we do hold sorry we do whole and engage in this ministry by the mercy of god now remember the word interchangeable between mercy and grace that means paul is saying because we serve god by the grace that is given to us we do not get discouraged spiritless despondent with fear or become faint with weariness or exhaustion you see exhaustion is physical weariness is of the soul the only way you can overcome the challenges of a ministry life is to operate by the grace of god not just by anything else you know when i learned this lesson in indonesia 450 pastors 12 15 sessions and i'm the only speaker nobody punished me it was my self-inflicted soul because it's my conference my school 450 pastors we sponsored they came because you see nobody wanted to come and teach with me because who are you who are you who are you for me to come what will you pay me so no one came so i'll do i'll do the job by the time you know i'm very energetic by the time the first day fourth session i was like jews nothing more man i went to the room in order to pray jesus i'm gone tears was running this way lord i don't even have the energy to speak for the next session let's cry i say god i've given everything on the first two three four whatever i'm going to do 10 more to go you know and the last day i have to pray over 450 people by person that lasted eight hours crying why am i gonna do god who nobody comes we sponsored the entire conference twelve thousand dollars the pastors told me very good you know very nice you know yeah sure help me god [Laughter] selfies pastors and the lord spoke to me turn to ii corinthians chapter 4 verse 1 the grace of god that's what i'm missing i'm operating in my strength and my knowledge i was screaming a lot more on the first four sessions i got a lot more to go i must learn how to modulate myself don't give up giving everything on the first floor you got to get a lot more to give and so lord came and came to the room and he told me how to speak in every session the grace of god and while i'm speaking the angels will come when the angels come i don't have to speak so i learned growing up with the lord no matter how many days i pray and prepare i need the grace today jesus my king needs the grace more than anything can we stand up together can you take a moment to ask god lord i need the grace i need the grace i may not be anybody in the church or not serving as much as my brother or sister is but i need more of your grace i need grace for my spouse i need grace for myself i need grace for my children lord we pray that you will have a breakthrough in our family listen sons if you are here with your parents and all they are not here they are watching the greatest joy of any father is not that you will save millions and give to them is that you'll walk with god the greatest joy of any father the greatest joy of any mother you may be working hard to earn money and give it to them but listen their heart is that you will walk with god if you can live up to that challenge that is the greatest blessing you will bring back to your parents who gave everything that you will have amen and i pray that same blessings will come come on take a few moments to ask god to fill us in this moment and say father in the name of jesus let your mercy and let your grace come forth to every brother and sister who's gathered father i pray for the mercy and the grace lord to come in jesus name for all those who are watching online my brothers and sisters in church here would you say what a prayer to bless those who are watching online they may not have the fellowship like you have they may not be here with us but your prayer will usher the grace of god to them lord in the name of jesus bless your family god bless your people with your grace we give you glory father we want to demonstrate jesus in this conference we want to prepare ourselves so that the king of glory may come in all those who are broken-hearted when they come let them be healed and made strong we pray for every pastor who's coming that their hearts will be healed so they will fight the good fight of faith gel our hearts together in the church our sons and daughters knowing that we are one family together we pray for our families to become stronger in you [Music] we become our sons and daughters to rise up in jesus name oh great mountain who are you for god will make you to become a plain ground [Music] father we pray in jesus name [Music] no matter which mountain that is standing in front of your children give them the authority and the grace to speak and be cast out in jesus name in the midst of all the kobe give them opportunities and favors of god prosper your family in the midst of all the challenges that is going on let your hand an immeasurable favor rest upon your family live them up that they can shine for your glory god we praise you we glorify your name we honor your names [Music] we thank you and honor you father we humble our hearts before you seal our spirit man beyond the seduction of the enemy that we will serve you in our spirit we thank you and honor you in jesus name we pray amen and i mean come on give the lord a wonderful clap offering hallelujah
