thank your own bishop jake mother bishop jacob and his wife for politically making this evening possible [Applause] [Music] i myself i'm surprised that i'm standing here but the anarchism has not been easy so thank you for having us amen amen i knew your pastor before he even met his wife i mean most of you and um he belonged to a fellowship i started by the grace of god it was called beach road fellowship now a friend of beach road fellowship so his big brother was my friend so to me he was a little boy [Music] but he had such a passion for god no our akuma young coupon this was in 1983. you know yeah 1983. this is 32 years ago in february it shows what relationships can do or treasure me amen and then also he was the school prefect of his school now [Music] so sometimes i would go and visit him to find out also how our follow-up was going and i think we had a few programs also in his school and to be honest but little did i know how god would weave everything to come to where we are after so many years what happened was that the university was closed by rollins in 1983. 83 and when we were going home to our various cities and towns my husband said do you have a fellowship in the area where you live now you know we couldn't be and s said no we have a town fellowship so i walked to town for the fellowship he said why don't you start a fellowship in your area because in those days we were and also since the universities have been closed down it must be a time for fruitfulness to scoop on me to you know whatever and so that is what brought your pastor into my life now until honoring our count most of it he was a very obedient ship unlike some of you no oh yeah papa until and i remember we were trying to plan a crusade and i was a bit nervous and worried how the crusade was going to be and at that meeting we were praying he may not remember but he shared the verse that says that enlarge the place of your tents now crusade [Music] and so that strengthened me and the crusade was very successful at this time my husband was not my beloved remembering um he came along to lagoon about lagonna and then he met bishop that's my husband bishop adi and all and the flow was still going on now i know and then he told us that he had a heart to be an evangelist and of course bishop started to work on him bishop or a church he was a very prosperous young man at recent cope for his year and then after that i think he went to work at usa id yes so he was he was receiving cds in dollars so okay i offered the usa id and then god called so i thank you bishop jake for your faithfulness god bless you oh yeah the one day i left lagoon when i came back he introduced some nice lady to me that abrahamic free lagoon and uh even when she was speaking to us like she was shy or something that's all right because you're passionate about phil and i said so what is your name let me send our fraud then i'm here taking our boy [Applause] so it has been a great journey

together on the same shoulder this evening i want to talk to you about things we must learn things we must learn amen amen let's turn our bibles to where should i start from hebrews five verse eight yeah please give me a cue when it's five minutes to time though he were a son yet learnt he obedience by the things which he suffered and being made perfect he became the author of eternal salvation and to all them that obey him amen amen the bible says though he were a son yet lent his obedience to the things that he suffered there are many things that the bible talks about things that we can learn or we must learn paul says i have learned in whatsoever state to be content policy hebrews is saying he lent obedience to the things he suffered hebrews god said to moses i wanted them to learn about the fear of god we learn usually by going to school and when we go to school sometimes you are taught but you don't learn and some of us it's not that we are not smart but we refuse to learn so we don't get to where we could have gotten to in life [Music] many years ago when the university was closed down in 1983 in february i was i looked for a vacation job in a primary school now maybe my church was so cool so i started to teach in that school one day i was teaching the children i found their standard very low and i was very upset that how can they ever reach somewhere if this is so i decided that i would prepare very well and properly and present the lesson well to teach them as much as i could so far as i was there so mekado quesadilla honestly but as i was writing on the board i saw that they had also stopped writing and there was a bit of restlessness and they were looking outside the window now before i could even see what was happening pono this was like class four class five no i am there class four another class five the class one teacher came to the classroom a class one teacher in a bar a dynamo and they didn't say anything to me why can't bibi aren't charming and just said no okay the cassava is ready immediately the whole class hey they went and they left me there inaudible it wasn't that i hadn't prepared the lesson it wasn't that i wasn't patiently teaching them no yeah but but they were not interested in learning no more about i later got to know that it was a routine that the teacher always did she was the one cooking the banshee behind class one no honorable banshee or a class one danish so then no matter the period ban chinese bina bafa and so sometimes you don't learn due to various things that come your way into what you see and learning is not only sitting in a classroom and learning but when you are a christian the bible is saying that obedience is something we can learn and when the bible begins this though he wear a son that's the bible and jesus was the only begotten is the only begotten son of god jesus sometimes and often christians think that when they are sons or when they are children of god they shouldn't suffer certain things christopher jones but jesus is the ultimate son of god to the vestas by saying even though he was a son he still had to learn obedience in the bible shall i say that no oh yeah no and he had always said in his journey on this earth that i don't do my own will what i see the father do that's what i do i don't have i didn't come of my own accord whatever the father tells me that's what i do but he still had to learn obedience no childhood ocean i even when he was going to the cross he knew about it he had spoken the bible says he set his eyes steadfastly towards jerusalem the bible is in there or the newest city about jerusalem and if when peter tried to dissuade him he rebuked the devil in peter peter and yet in matthew 26 when he gets to the garden of gethsemane he asked god if it is possible let this cup pass now ibrahimovic somebody who had prophesied his death will be unaware you cannot share new home commodore somebody who has rebuked somebody for suggesting that you shouldn't go to that death blind when the real time came even god he tried to negotiate with god yet lead to obedience to the things that he suffered in zama oprah newman amen amen sometimes we learn by committing to memory right so that we remember like time stable and uh say two one two you know three times four times you know all yeah and you you messed my workout two and two two to four and you mean in the same way it's good to know the scriptures but that is one level of learning but you learn real obedience through the things we suffer you know every week unfortunately when we go through suffering the things we suffer we sometimes don't learn obedience but we learn rebellion [Music] unforgiveness you you share money for free but the things we suffer must help us to learn obedience sometimes obedience opens a dimension of pain you've never known me it opens pain that you have not seen before and sometimes the magnitude or the largeness of the pain makes you not learn obedience but we have to learn obedience through the things we suffer because otherwise then we just book knowledge now already yeshua i have had to learn obedience to the things i have suffered yes the bible says i came that you may have life and have it more abundantly in your journalism but in having that abundant life even like jesus christ he also had to learn obedience through the things he suffered today obedience makes you know and learn what you mean by i love god when you say i love jesus you see when you sing the song oh how i love jesus but through the things you suffer you will know whether you have learned to love jesus sometimes you learn through the things you suffer in marriage sometimes through the things you suffer financially sometimes you learn through the things you suffer by your reputation sometimes you learn through the things you suffer even in your body sometimes through the things we suffer in church well you are in your church was an innocent place i thought church was made up of holy people remember that i'll show you the wonder woman i will cronk but some of the phenomenal sufferings and pains i have seen have come from the body of christ and sometimes instead of learning obedience we learn departure a bit suffering through learning through obedience and the suffering you go through shows you a dimension of god you may never have known abraham naruto it teaches you a dimension of god's word in fact certain verses they came to you only through the things you suffered and your prayer time was even affected through the things you suffered though he was a son though he was son in modern day christianity were in the henry crystal last week i was at infants man girls for three days japanese manual we had a short question and answer time your mouth and some brits yeah the questions were a mountain load now but i couldn't go through all men too man calling naremo but a lot of them were similar nothing inaudible and most of the questions said now as ambition baby sit there if god is my father so on your opponent's major if i'm a born-again christian send me your impact on your opponent i want to fulfill why don't i get everything i asked for but maybe it's a ramen sanctuary why do difficult things come my way but why is it not easy but young brown mommy though he wears son now yeah yet lengthy obedience to the things he suffered was many of you young ladies both the single and the married well encouraged you know you were not expecting or you are not expecting any suffering in marriage when you understand you are expecting love let's shake under or don't go yes you will get love you bend your door but you will learn also obedience through the things you suffer as ombrewa in zama yahwah two weeks ago i was just with my husband on monday and every morning my husband makes me a cup of tea so brothers please learn [Music] more and a christian had written a book now a christian be a troll i think he was called mr pikmi he had written a book about marriage and they were asking him on tv three why he had written a book about marriage no objection i think he said he now has a foundation a marriage foundation like an organization because of the statistics that are around the world i'll say where you why your jama kubia offer our names now and the tv3 presenter said now you cannot be somebody to be trained today last year in ghana were available to me organically in the courts were caught hundred thousand divorces were recorded our ogui and pimencia and six hundred thousand six hundred thousand my husband turned and asked me about how many people are married in ghana now could be said that inaudible and they also said something significant that these days those divorces are initiated by women now what's it of india our obama official though he were a son thought yet learn to obedience i'm not saying when somebody is beating you sit down for him to beat you mankind is now someone bro but i think that there's no mind to pay the price for anything nice to mention say that i i didn't i i didn't be a hormone why i carried over to a bib cow or to suffer obedience for anything to suffer and learn obedience for anything removed so we just feel that oh i'm going real quiet if i go it doesn't work i can just come out so arjuna under my heart but in marriage your obedience will be tested that's what our what should say about because it will not always be easy to love somebody who has not shown you love for a long time oh sunday on you on yam bro there better or be a bro unknown child or dog one breathing cinema and to cook for somebody who does not remember you when he's at work and to somebody who doesn't remember to say thank you when you have cooked a good meal yes and to somebody who never says you look good baby but you will learn obedience through the things that you suffer sometimes the obedience you will learn is that there's no one who can love you like god what suit your emotion will mean there obey you outdoor today on young you will learn obedience that there is no flawless lover like jesus christ know who you are today here is jesus you will learn that it's only jesus who promises and keeps his words now beholder jesus christ and you will notice that he said i will never leave you not for sake that's what this kojo he can leave you as for john he can leave you but through the things you suffer you learn [Music] we don't do god's word in marriage because it's convenient and we don't do god's word because the other person is also doing god's word oriented we stand as individuals before god [Music] so when you see the person that you don't feel like flowing in love towards and she said when and then you read first corinthians chapter 13. now you can correct your full mouth you can today and it says love never fails now our daughter it's not an easy lesson to learn on your address yet let's see obedience through the things he suffered amen amen sometimes you may suffer loneliness as a single person maybe you have always been believing god if you are young and you are working with god young upon them but you don't seem to be meeting anybody that's what i didn't show bearer you have read the verse that says do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers i can control not us and when i want you on your opponent they are afraid but all the people coming are also unbelievers and you think that you are getting on an age now are you there ringing that is when the learning of obedience comes in city he didn't say it would be easy one cut off by embryo he didn't say you won't cry to obey him so you've read the vest but you are surprised that now the practical house has come to you now i can can't try you know all your one what does he see as a international added perfect william the practicals you have read it in theory but now you have to put it into practice and that is when you begin to learn what it means to obey god why are you associated with young many of us don't know what it means to obey god [Music] messing are you able to miraculon if it were not that i knew that god had called me. [Music] there will be many opportunities to look back enjoy economy what must you meet you because sometimes some things happen or sometimes and then you look and say ah but when i was in the world it was cool and who has sent me and what am i looking for not that's an american i mean let me just look for some comfortable place my mom says but if you say that god has called you sake it is not a calling of convenience on yeah at that point you begin to learn what it means to obey my brain i always tell the story of when i came full time into ministry i thank god for my sunday school teacher who led me to christ at the age of 9. and he always told me god has called you but i didn't understand what he was saying i see and we were in a group called the tears of jesus could be offering to the tears of jesus which he formed on a cassata way and he would take us to the marketplace and give us script we have learnt already and we will put us on those kerosene tanks and tell us to preach now so i was the principal preacher na emina makan sampano and my interpreter was called hectoria kwashi no church often hectoria question she's serving god in ccc strongly to the glory of god arose with ccc but he it kept ringing in my ear god has called you god has called you debbie arena from when i got to secondary school not so much i just knew in a shadow but yeah brahmo called secondary school sunday minion but and then i came to the university abraham about school pomona university and one day we had our last paper so i had gone to bishop circus to have a discussion they said somebody was looking for me what would you show me when i came into a teacher i had not seen him for years well i inquired about you they say you are in lagoon reading law i saw maybe what are you doing here reading lord when the lord has called you the area then graduation lord brother young afraid and i said teacher about god has called me but it's not like i know what to do so i believe that god leads you in steps so if god has called me whenever he says i should whatever he says i should do i would do. that this lady is going to fail her exams so that she will obey you amma why yo and then i didn't say amen my jedi amen so he looked at me today when i pray you don't say amen huh i said santa bombay in cairo i said because i am not like jonah running away so zana mentioned that jonah oregon if god has called me i'm already doing ministry work whatever i don't understand it but i'm sure that he will bring me into all his will another time i was in kaligon cathedral they say a man is looking at for me when i went teach i am on what the now what's wrong with you he said that i came to look for your husband so my brother my brother he doesn't know where you are coming from so why are you saying that them say from a young age god has called you so i'm coming to tell you say well well one move from me no you're going out front my back our channel so i took him up to my husband's office until you know call me office hello what is the well i just came with one message your wife god has called her ensure that she obeys thank you so well i started life i started working as a lawyer but i always knew that god had called me and thank god for lighthouse which has even lay past us so that you can still do god's work [Applause] internationally some years after i felt that it was time to come through i knew i would come full time but i felt that it was time now well um as soon as i came full time the learning began libra remember full-time permit chassis i wasn't expecting it now i had been told to start the lighthouse school now waka chamber dementia lights out school i see so i started with my little daughter there was no one in the school just my little daughter no objection every time i was going to work then i'll pass through the school yeah when i came full time i said to my husband i don't want to do the school as my full-time work i want to do something that links me to the church you may be offered so he said well i'm going to work and then when i get there yeah you come then you'll be told what you do when i got there the next day or so i was called into the meeting i was told that aha now that you have come full time you are being assigned really way to the nursery school and see abraham academics the very place i had told him i didn't i could still do the work but i didn't want to do that that that is what i do and she was called manumu now what baby i mean when i was crying and the first day when i went full time there was no desk to even sit at bra and it's something i had been doing anyway with the lady there that we changed the nappies bath the children whatever but not that that is my life's work no oh yeah no no no and so i was very sad and i also felt that if i have paid the price all these years for this church to come this far is it too much to ask to be put in a certain place to work not even any high place but just things to do directly with the church baby i came home and i spoke about it again that something to do with the church okay then bible school i said okay [Music] i said okay so what subject is the bible school i was hoping they will say sweet influences of the holy spirit something you know but he said oh i don't know you have to go and see the dean this dean when i was even in the church she has not even been born and i should go and see the dream yet learned idioms through the things he suffered okay so when i went i asked the dean oh i hear i've been given a subject in the bible so i was very excited what subject is it english language not a bachelorette bro fool i was so heartbroken my background and as i was driving home until i messed up you know the devil started to tell me look at your air-conditioned office sherwood condition office look at the secretaries you had secretary for briana look at the messenger even the man who buys your food is your father's age now you have come look at how they are treating you and look at how they are taking you from nursery here and then when i go to they say i don't have office guys oh where will i mark my screen ah you can sit on a chair here come in yet lengthy obedience through the things he's suffering amen amen so i asked i said okay when i go to bible school i teach this english language i need a place to mark my script oh there's no space so where will you see there's no space okay maybe you can ask the dean and you can sit at her place now soon after that i saw carpenters they are banging doing this i said ah what's happening here in the church office what's going on here he said oh pastor big daddy is coming full time so we are trying to make space to make an office for him so pastor big that you are all about four times uh officer bimano yet lenti obedience through the things he suffered in zama oprah amen amen so then but it didn't really cause any problem at home because i was spiritually looking at so what is happening and it drove me to the presence of god because i felt that that's the only place i can find answers [Music] who will i report my husband to who can you show me anyone in the church when i went to my closet i was very sad i wept you could have carried the tears in buckets and i was singing now oh lord i the about me you are my glory [Music] how i miss my office god hurts nobody and that is why i love the presence of god because i can be myself infamous i said lord look at how they are treating me where do you judge me i mean why the passing time the holy spirit said congratulations have you seen anybody god has called that has not had a wilderness experience i said really i not said really like who wanna he said i gave abraham i promise abraham but he went through the desert oh call cerrodo i called joseph my friend joseph but he went through a desert or faster though i called moses my friend moses but he saw himself leading sheep contrary to what i had called him on father my friend and i called my son jesus confronted by jesus and he was led by the holy spirit into the wilderness in the name of costarado i said lord where is the wilderness you say he you serenado the wilderness is where you can't see any life where you can see progress where you can't see whether you are going or coming where nothing grows but it is part of my work with you [Music] there is amen amen because as i was thinking lord but i came to the church before this and i came to the church before that and lord i've given my all and lord i've sacrificed and lord but when i lent obedience through the things i suffered it changed my perspective [Music] and it made me not look at you know god asked me i remember in the closet who called you mercado and you're going to probably be something i want an offroad and i was representing god you did now he said yes where's the bishop dog who called you said no you'll be shocked i said no lord you called me i want to frame it now so what's the problem how are you doing what is your problem oh how are you doing it was not an easy journey no i am bro but through the things i suffered nationwide in zama i've come to see that you need personal conviction to last in the ministry god must call you and not a human being on your impact because if a human being calls you you give up easily but when god calls you a lot of things happen but that conviction keeps you in the same place i thought i had obeyed god by responding i was supposed to learn obedience some of you the things you suffered should let you learn obedience how to obey to be prayerful mumu but although you have suffered so many things you are still not prayerful you are still solving your problems by human means just like unbelievers do the hara you pay me out of the damn breath though he was son though he was a son not yeah has kept me going for many years on acromi number two museum to anambra many years after that in february no we have the fishes camp yeah yeah uh fishes time has come called fishes camp yes yeah you should be our friend fisher's camp in el mina or el mina and my husband said to me on our way there ibrahimovic what is one thing you would say somebody needs to be full-time or to serve god in full-time ministry that one must know i said to have a personal conviction that god has called you now when we got to the camp he called me to share this. how would i have known what it means to obey god why would i how would i have known some of the parts that you have to work on in jamaica who cannot authorize how would i have understood when they say a wilderness experience through the things i suffered i became a school girl who lent obedience to god in zama so when i was called at the fishers camp i shared what i've shared with you auntie ibra what from world fisher's campaign forgive us it's okay don't say it again it's okay but i'm saying it again this evening obedience ocean through the things he suffered don't let the things you suffer go in vain mama isn't on cookware don't let the things you suffer change you mama yahwah easy on sasha some of you your hearts have changed instead of learning obedience your heart rather has become sickened and sickly some of you you suffered things through the church and you are not the same again the joy you had in the church you didn't learn anything you rather learnt things that the world learns what casamayor natural you don't really want any problem incredible you don't trust anybody in job around zebu gradually gradually you are going outside the church i can't call you put your fear sorry no more but if you would take your suffering and learn obedience through it every man i believe that you will be blessed amen amen philippians chapter 2 verse 5. philippi philippians chapter 2 verse 5. amen amen are we there lend the word of god through the things you suffer learn the obedience that comes through god's work from the things you suffer in zama ibrahimovic as you may read jeremiah 29 11. jeremiah [Music] i know the plans i have for you saith the lord imagine lands of prosperity oh yes yes and not of evil not on ye to bring you to the expected end the miserable baby you have read this verse i can't eat chowing you feel that you are obeying and living by that word watching your over there retain that much but when you suffer certain things that's what you say brothers it will put that verse to test in your life you ask yourself do i believe that he knows the plans he has for me then why are things not like yeah as if there is no plan in my life today you will learn how to hold on to god's word even when things don't look like that because you will learn obedience through the things you suffer sometimes as a christian you don't have money don't be on my christian music and you say my god shall supply all my knees according to his riches in glory by god then you meet some sugar daddy okay sugar daddy he said sleep with me and i'll give you this money i said human dynamics to the musical mouse the lady reference was very hard when i thought about the shoes and the back lady reverend yeah i couldn't say no so ladies because you see i've been suffering what's under my breath and i've not been able to pay for a lot of things i'm going to be bringing to check out but if in the suffering you are able to obey god then you are learning obedience but if you just let go it's easy this way is easy this way is convenient then you haven't learnt obedience you suffered anything bro i am they say we are having meetings in church meeting and the bible says pray without season the bible says you've read the verse can can but actually praying without ceasing you have not lived the life before now so them that the vampire enjoyment we don't do things as christians because it's easy or convenient we do them because god said so yeah christophe yeah so if god says pray without season and you you school yourself to pray you learn the obedience that comes from prayer than ninja exactly so if you don't attend that school you cannot learn it nothing falls from heaven into our laps there's nothing like that everything you learn you you go through an experiment when we were learning in school some people will put their feet in water some people would chew guru to go wrong they say people what would be seen some people drink coffee i'll be more than coffee some people stay up all night till the next morning what's he paying my attention why they are learning something even in the secular world you go through something before you gain something we are important and santa wants a camera then obedience that's one of the things you suffer amen amen we were at philippians 2 verse 5 let this mind be in you which was also in christ jesus who being in the form of god thought it not robbery to be equal but he made himself of no reputation and took upon him the form of a servant and was made in the likeness of men now and being found in fashion as a man he humbled himself and became obedient and to death even death on the cross well i've seen beyond wherefore unintended god has also highly exalted him and giving him a name which is above every name now one man is inaudible hallelujah amen now the bible gives us an example of jesus says though he wears son yet led the obedience by the things he suffered now how did he go through these steps of obedience now i don't know awkward in some shame first of all he had the mind mostly kind of our agenda he had a way of thinking not our messenger of religion he had a way of processing not all mesmer organization he thought like god would think of genomics and that is why the bible says in romans 12 that be transformed by the renewing of your mind change the way you think honest in the bible scenario yeah jennifer change the way you program genomics man it's would you martha if we are going to learn obedience through the things we suffer it starts from how we process the suffering let this mind be in you madame we always say yes we have the riches of christ we have the favor we have this it's true but we also must have the mind of christ and when the bible says let this mind be it means it depends on you permit allow this mind to be in your let but he wasn't looking at his reputation his status what he is and all that he was looking at to being what god wanted him to be national one chair needs not be needed the bible says in verse seven that he made himself bibles in there or you know most of us other people make us of no reputation but in jesus's case he made himself of no reputation because the holy spirit gives you the power to make yourself what you have to be you don't have power you have just new year resolution but when you become a born again christian christ comes to live in you and gives you power to become what you have to become [Music] your christian jesus christ and took upon him the form of a servant it wasn't put on him by force he took upon himself one fight and being found in a fashion as a man he humbled himself after becoming a servant and he saw that i have become man he humbled himself god power man with all his problems god made himself and humbled himself as a man personally look at all the steps he went through what does the bible say and became obedient is that offering in a bible scenario or yes when you have a certain kind of mind say what argument and when you allow your actions to be overtaken by the power of the holy spirit in the place of obedience hallelujah amen i don't think i'm a super woman mean jesus but having gone through what i went through when i said i wanted to serve god full time now so my father from abraham catches full time i didn't think that i had any earthly options [Music] i just felt that let me go into his presence and see what he will speak and see what he would tell me and when he told me i said lord it's not easy but if you will empower me i'll be okay hallelujah amen and what did god do after jesus went through all these steps the bible says and he has that wherefore god also has exalted him after you learn in a class promotion comes you know what what what what order amen amen wherefore god also has highly exalted him the mentee on young man so god didn't just exalt him but his obedience led to exaltation there's no christianity without suffering christos i preached at a wedding and i preached about the cross mechanics and power are you frustrated it sounded a bit awkward that the cross and marriage now either on zafra awareness india but unless you are willing to die to yourself interests sometimes your dreams your visions your right to be right your pride your reputation unless you die to that you can't successfully be married today i'm amen when i told that couple that are you sure you want to marry me because a woman had lost her husband who was a pastor and then she was going to marry another person i was thinking oh how crap any you know about how she that's what i was thinking and she maybe said said yes i said you know she was a very powerful prophetess she said yes as i do know she went through a very difficult marriage she said yes and i said do you hear of her these days she said no i said so why do you want to go on this route and i said you see this woman god's hand is on

permanence she said really is that the only way see now what other way were you thinking about it [Music] she's learning obedience through the things she's suffering obedience of god's call on her life so i respond to that call she's learning through the things she suffered as to whether god has really called her and whether she would really obey yeah um those of you who are single marriage is a wonderful thing but it is also a humbling thing when you see people they are smiling you ask you like your pastor and his wife how long have you been mine for 22 years i wonder exactly that you cannot have it without paying the price [Music] just before i came here i was on the phone with somebody and she was telling me my husband when i tell him i have to talk to him then he says what about every day you have something to talk about so he doesn't talk i said yes men don't talk myself oh mommy what are you saying i said oh that's what is in all the shops so the marina our shops in she said what do you mean i said well let's take it that god is selling husbands so your friend they are all in the shop autonomy may be similar because god made us male and female so what you are seeing as a problem may be just a male thing and i said to her you have been married for like four years isn't it so our bed and friend annoying to the man he said yes mommy i'll see you i said well those of us who have been mined for 27 years it's not that we don't also have challenges but learning to work with god's word leads you to a place but you will pay the price suffered in zama or brethren stand
