  1. Welcome to NECF sermons. Each message here is

  2. designed to uplift and strengthen you in your

  3. walk with God. Don't miss out, stay with us until

  4. the end for a rewarding experience. Let's dive

  5. right in. Exodus chapter 6 verse 3 everybody,

    Exodus 6:3

  6. let's go. Exodus chapter 6 verse what? Verse

    Exodus 6 chapter mention

  7. 3. Exodus chapter 6 verse 3. If you have been

    Exodus 6:3

  8. with us in this past week, we've been talking

  9. about the name of who? The name of Jesus. Amen?

  10. We have been discussing about the name of what?

  11. Jesus. Why are we doing this? We are doing this,

  12. I believe, with the whole of my heart, right?

  13. What we are doing in this season, or the theme

  14. of this season, right? This understanding will

  15. play a greater role also in that. Amen. Our theme

  16. for the year is what? What is our theme for the

  17. year? Greater works. Amen. So I believe this

  18. teaching also is part of what will be so significant

  19. to us in this season. Hallelujah. That we don't

  20. go around mentioning the name of Jesus as it

  21. were every other person will mention it. Amen.

  22. In Hausa, in northern Nigeria, in Hausa, they

  23. say yes to Almasihu. You know? But when you now

  24. go to the other side, they say it's Isa. Whether

  25. you say Isa Almasihu, or you say yes to Almasihu,

  26. right? Whether you say it in English, or in whatever

  27. language, is not the main short name of the name

  28. of Jesus. What cast out demons is not the what?

  29. dimensioning in the name of Jesus that Paul preaches,

  30. that Pastor Frederick preaches. You demon get

  31. out! No! It's not the mentioning of the name

  32. of Jesus that brings the evidence that we see.

  33. Hallelujah! But Radha, let me start. This is

  34. a good way to start out this morning. It's not

  35. the mentioning of the name of Jesus that brings

  36. the evidence and the results that a believer

  37. sees, but rather is the knowledge and understanding

  38. of the name of Jesus. I just say something good

  39. now. It's not the what? It's not the mentioning

  40. of the name of Jesus that brings the evidence

  41. and the results a believer sees, but rather the

  42. knowledge and the understanding of the name of

  43. Jesus to the believer. So which means that when

  44. a believer has the knowledge and the understanding

  45. of the name of Jesus Christ, what is happening

  46. to him is that he is no longer working in information,

  47. but he is working in the reality. Hallelujah.

  48. Glory to Jesus. So that person is not working

  49. in the what? The information. I don't know whether

  50. it happens to people in other parts of Africa

  51. or part of the world but in where I'm coming

  52. from some people experience that more especially

  53. when we're in high school secondary school and

  54. all those things you know you're sleeping and

  55. something will press you you know we used to

  56. believe that something presses our neck right

  57. I don't know whether it has happened to some

  58. people here but something will press your neck

  59. and then from your dream world or your dream

  60. realm you are starting the gene is not coming

  61. out and then suddenly when you now finally get

  62. a hold of it and the gene is out you just wake

  63. up and then finally you know I know a friend

  64. when the friend sleeps and wakes up right the

  65. friend wakes up with literal marks on the body

  66. because in the dream The person was fighting

  67. with giants. And when the person wakes up in

  68. the natural realm, I mean real, because the person

  69. will have those experiences and send photos to

  70. me. You will see real marks on the body. And

  71. the person now is afraid to sleep once it is

  72. 8 p .m. I'm saying something real now. So the

  73. person will stay awake 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. Why?

  74. Because the person does not want to dream. 1,

  75. 2, 3. When it's getting to 3 a .m., 4 a .m.,

  76. you know that morning, from that time to morning,

  77. when the sun will rise, definitely your dream

  78. will be light. That's when the person gets to

  79. sleep. We now have to do a study. Amen. Mind

  80. you, this person I'm talking about is a believer.

  81. So the person knows the name of Jesus, but the

  82. person is afraid of whatever he or she is encountering

  83. in the dream realm, right? More than the name

  84. of Jesus, the information he or she has. So you

  85. see, what overcomes is not the information, is

  86. the reality. And the reality comes by knowledge,

  87. not anyhow knowledge, accurate. knowledge, glory

  88. to Jesus. Pastor Fred is here. We had a guy,

  89. you know, the guy had returning back to Nigeria

  90. before he left was sound. The guy will stay in

  91. his house and he says he will hear voices down

  92. the streets. So Pastor Fred called him, you know,

  93. he said, come and lie down in my house, stay

  94. in my house and let's see whether you will hear

  95. voices. Before God, whom I stand, he came and

  96. stayed in his house and he didn't hear voices.

  97. It's from your house that I took him back home.

  98. He went home sound. What I'm saying is that the

  99. person has authored books now and he is doing

  100. sound. He's married with children, yes. Hallelujah.

  101. So what we are discussing in this season is,

  102. let me use one word now that came to me, is PIVOTA.

  103. My wife will say, where is this one coming from?

  104. My English is increasing, you know, the bush

  105. boy from Adama, you know. Yes, it's pivotal to

  106. the things that are happening to us in this season.

  107. Hallelujah. Glory to Jesus. Good, so we're in

  108. Exodus, right? Did we get an instruction from

  109. this, what I just said now? Did anybody get an

  110. instruction? Did anybody get an instruction now?

  111. So if you're here and you're afraid to sleep,

  112. don't be afraid to sleep. By the virtue of being

  113. part of this local church, right, I speak to

  114. you, I declare upon you, I command you, in the

  115. name of Jesus, every struggle with sleep dies

  116. now in Jesus' name. All you live here, you sleep

  117. sound, every kind of weird dreams, every kind

  118. of scary dreams, we subject you to the power

  119. in the name of Jesus. Father we thank you, for

  120. you've given your beloved sleep, and we sleep,

  121. we rest, and there is no any confusion in our

  122. restroom in the name of Jesus. We bless you Lord,

  123. be thou glorified in Jesus name. Amen. Holy Spirit,

  124. thank you for the spirit of wisdom and revelation

  125. is made manifest in this atmosphere and in our

  126. hearts as we listen to the word for in Jesus'

  127. name we pray. Amen. So Exodus chapter 6 verse

    Exodus 6:3

  128. 3. And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac and

  129. Jacob by the name of God Almighty, but my name,

  130. Yehoah, was I not what? Known to them. Genesis

    Genesis 12:1

  131. chapter 12 verse 1. Genesis chapter 12 verse

    Genesis 12:1

  132. 1. We said, but by name Jehovah was I not what?

  133. Known to them. And what did we learn about Jehovah?

  134. Jehovah means God's salvation, right? And at

  135. the end of the day from Jehovah, Jesus, Isos

  136. is the same with Joshua. Amen. And then we now

  137. came and said, That Joshua, right, is the name

  138. in Old Testament. Hallelujah. And from the Old

  139. Testament, we now realize that prophets have

  140. spoken about Jesus Christ, his humanity, his

  141. coming. Amen. So we now move to Old Testament

  142. and then look at where did the prophets spoke

  143. about what? Jesus. And now we now connected that

  144. Jesus now to Messiah. Messiah means Messiah.

  145. Amen? Because Messiah and Messiah, or Messiah,

  146. is the same with Christos. Christ means what?

  147. Christos. And we say Christos means the what?

  148. The anointed one. Amen? The chosen one. And we

  149. say in the Old Testament, you won't see anything

  150. called Christos. You won't see anything called

  151. Christ. But what you see is Messiah. Messiah

  152. means Messiah. Amen? And then we now look at

  153. Isaiah. In Isaiah, we now see one of the prophecies

  154. that were given about the Messiah is about there

  155. will be a sign and a virgin will give birth to

  156. a child and his name shall be called what? Emmanuel.

  157. Even though as of that time, Prophet Isaiah was

  158. giving the prophecy to Ahas, it happened in their

  159. time, right? But now as Matthew, Luke, Mark,

  160. John will document the event of Christ, they

  161. will document that event from what? The prophecy,

  162. the communications of the prophets. So Isaiah

  163. will be prophesying, or I will call her, will

  164. be prophesying to a woman of God regarding events

  165. that are in the future. Amen? However, some certain

  166. things will happen to her now from that prophecy,

  167. but yet the prophecy is indicating something

  168. that is coming what? Ahead. So when Pastor Tike

  169. comes to document an event that is happening

  170. with Pastor Ema. He will document that event

  171. because that event is similar to what has happened

  172. to the prophecy that I gave in a different timeline.

  173. But the pattern of this communication is the

  174. same pattern with what is happening with Pastor

  175. Ema. So Pastor Takunda will write that communication.

  176. and quote that same prophecy that I gave to her,

  177. right? In Pastor Emanuel's words, event two.

  178. Hallelujah. So what did we learn? We learned

  179. that Emanuel means what? God with what? With

  180. us. And then we now read also in now Luke that

  181. we see that his name shall also be called what?

  182. Emanuel, Jesus. So when we say God's salvation,

  183. what we are saying is that Emanuel, God with

  184. us. God Becoming man to save men Hallelujah,

  185. so that is what we have been doing all this while.

  186. Hallelujah. Good So we now also said that Jesus

  187. is holding that conversation Right from the point

  188. of resurrection Hallelujah. He said that in my

  189. name after being raised from the dead. He said

  190. in my Name in my name and we learned that Name

  191. or Norma figuratively means a person's what?

  192. Office, authority, function. Right? Right! So

  193. what Jesus will say, from my resurrection, from

  194. my authority, now go and preach to how many nations?

  195. All nations. So if you are writing like this,

  196. in resurrection, in resurrection, Every nation

  197. ought to be one for Jesus. In resurrection, every

  198. nation, right, is to be one for Jesus. In resurrection.

  199. In resurrection, every nation is to be one for

  200. who? For Jesus. Hallelujah. So far so good. Do

  201. we understand where we have been coming from?

  202. So now and we now talked about Jesus now in Luke

  203. 24 talking about resurrection, right? The remissions

  204. of his repentance will be preached in my name

  205. and we looked at everywhere in my name in my

  206. name in my name, right? So if it's your Bible

  207. every time now as you're learning now in this

  208. local church Every time you're hearing in the

  209. name of Jesus We are not talking about his biological

  210. nomenclature You know We are talking about what

  211. we are talking about his office Don't mind me.

  212. Oh, you understand don't know where they're coming

  213. from, right? So we're talking about his what

  214. his office Let me say something now by the spirit

  215. to somebody So which means that every time you

  216. stand before a circumstance and before a situation,

  217. before a sickness, before a mountain, before

  218. a challenge, don't come in the biological name

  219. of Jesus, come against that thing in the office

  220. of Jesus. Do you know what I just said now? So

  221. now let me let me take us a little bit further.

  222. So which means that every time this is a mountain,

  223. I am standing before it. Every time I want to

  224. mention or name the name of Jesus against this

  225. mountain, I will not. Now I'm having understanding.

  226. Hallelujah. So I'm not coming against this mountain

  227. just by the information I have. I'm coming against

  228. this mountain by the reality of the office, of

  229. the authority, of the name of who? Jesus. Listen

  230. again. So which means? that every time I mention

  231. the name of Jesus, this mountain is not responding

  232. to me. This mountain is responding to Jesus.

  233. And what this mountain is responding to is not

  234. the humanity of Jesus. This mountain is responding

  235. to the power of resurrection that raises Jesus

  236. from the dead. Do you see why Peter, by the gates,

  237. We'll say silver and gold, we do not what? We

  238. do not have. But we know we have seen, we have

  239. handled it, we have tested it, we have been with

  240. this Jesus and he has authorised us. He said

  241. we can give healing. We don't have silver, we

  242. don't have gold, but we know one of the provisions

  243. in resurrection is what? Is healing. Such as

  244. we have. We give unto thee in the name of what?

  245. Every time No, I will not use, I will not use

  246. Pastor Emma. No, I will not use Pastor. Come,

  247. God's voice, come. You know how, no? I will not

  248. use Pastor. Come. Two of you, come. Sit down.

  249. Good. Come, come and stand with me. Good. He

  250. is bigger than me, so that works. So Jesus is

  251. bigger, not inside you. Amen? Because He is inside

  252. you, amen? Smile now, God's voice, you are not

  253. smiling. Amen? You are not lame from birth. So

  254. when Peter came and met them and said, in the

  255. name of silver and gold, we do not have. Such

  256. that I have, I do what? I give unto thee. I just

  257. got something in my head. Every time we walk

  258. in the reality of the name of Jesus, it gives

  259. God's pleasure. Do you hear what I just said?

  260. It gives God's what? Pleasure. Because we know

  261. that we are selves. And we are taking our rightful

  262. place in the Father. So, as we say, silver and

  263. gold, we do not have, such that we have, we do

  264. what? We give unto thee. In the name of Jesus,

  265. rise up and walk. In Peter's reality, he knows

  266. he is not the one raising this guy. Who is raising

  267. the guy? So please, in the name of Jesus, rise

  268. up and walk. Your holy mantra again. Sit down.

  269. In the name of Jesus, rise up and walk! Peter

  270. didn't raise that guy. Who raised him? Jesus

  271. raised him. Sit down. Thank you, sirs. So every

  272. time we walk in the reality of the name of Jesus,

  273. you see, that is why it should not be difficult.

  274. When you're encountering challenges, you should

  275. not be afraid. You are not the one overcoming

  276. the challenges. Jesus is the one at work. That

  277. is why that last part of Mark said, and God was

  278. working with them, confirming the words, with

  279. signs, what? Following. Glory to Jesus. Glory

  280. to Jesus. I just personally, if we end this here

  281. now, we have learned something, because this

  282. is what we are going to. Hallelujah. So now Genesis

    Genesis 12 chapter mention

  283. chapter 12 Genesis chapter 12 verse 1 Now the

    Genesis 12:1

  284. Lord has said to Abraham Right, I will just stop

  285. at three said to Abraham get thee out of thy

  286. country and of thy kindred and from thy father's

  287. house unto a land that I will what? Show thee

  288. and I will make of thee a great nation and I

  289. will bless thee and make thy name what? great

  290. And thou shalt be a what? A blessing, three.

  291. And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse

  292. thee, curse him that cursed thee, and in thee

  293. shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

  294. So if it's your Bible, please underline the words,

  295. all the families of the earth, number one. Number

  296. two, I will make of thee a great nation. I will

  297. make of thee a great what? Nation, all the families

  298. of the earth. Then Genesis chapter 15 verse one

    Genesis 15 chapter mention

  299. to six. Genesis 15 1 6 after this is the word

  300. of the Lord come unto Abraham in a vision saying

  301. fear not Abraham I Abraham now I am thy shield

  302. and the exceeding great reward and Abraham said

  303. Lord God what will thou give me seen I grow up

  304. chandless and the steward of thy house of my

  305. house is this Eliezer of the maskals and Abraham

  306. said behold to me thou has given me no seat and

  307. lo no one burn in my house is mine hair and behold

  308. see again now from 12 to 13 now to 15 and behold

  309. the word of the lord came unto him saying these

  310. shall not be thine what hair but he shall come

  311. from what out of thy own balls shall be thine

  312. what hair this biological noun god is speaking

  313. to him five and he brought him forth abroad and

  314. said look now toward heaven and tell the staffs

  315. If thou be able to number them, and he said unto

  316. him, so shall thy seed what? Be. You know, previously

  317. he told him that, you know, I shall multiply

  318. thy what? Seeds. Nations will come out of you,

  319. amen? And now God is telling him that your seed

  320. shall be like the stars of where? Good. Now,

  321. six. And he believes in the Lord, and he counted

  322. him, and he counted it to him for what? So who

  323. counted who? unto righteousness God counted unto

  324. Abraham as what as righteousness hallelujah good

  325. now Romans chapter four verse nine Romans chapter

  326. four verse three let's look at different places

  327. now where that was saying it was counted onto

  328. him Romans chapter four verse three for what

  329. said the scripture Abraham believed God and it

  330. was counted onto him for what For righteousness

  331. same place right good now verse 9 now verse 9

  332. Romans 4 9 Comment this blessedness then upon

  333. the circumcision only or upon the uncircumcision

  334. only for we say that by faith was recon to Abraham

  335. forwards for righteousness Amen good now verse

  336. 22 verse 22 And therefore it was imputed to him

  337. for what? For righteousness. Galatians 3 .6.

  338. Galatians 3 .6. Are we seen everywhere? Righteousness,

  339. righteousness, right? Good. So Galatians 3 .6.

  340. Even Abraham believed God and it was accounted

  341. to him as what? For righteousness. He believed

  342. God. Amen. So which means the message God gave

  343. him that nations will come out of him. He believed

  344. God and it was accounted in for what? For righteousness.

  345. James 2 23. James 2 23. James 2 23. And the scriptural

  346. of Sophia which said Abraham believed God and

  347. it was impeded onto him for righteousness and

  348. he was called the what? The friend of God. Hallelujah.

  349. So God communicated to Abraham. Abraham believed

  350. the communication and God accounted it onto him

  351. as righteousness. Abraham did nothing. What Abraham

  352. did was that he believed the communication of

  353. God to him. Glory to Jesus! Glory to Jesus! Then

  354. let's go back to Genesis chapter 17 again. So

    Genesis 17 chapter mention

  355. we have seen now, right, evidence that Abraham

  356. believed God and it was accounted to him as righteousness.

  357. Genesis 17, 4 to 6. As for me, behold, my covenant

  358. is with thee, and thou shalt be father of many

  359. nations. Verse 5. Neither shall thy name anymore

  360. be called Abraham, but thy name shall be Abraham,

  361. for a father of many nations have I made thee.

  362. and I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and

  363. I will make nations of thee, and kings shall

  364. come out of what? Can you see nations, nations,

  365. nations, nations, nations? All the communications

  366. of God to Abraham is about what? Nations! Glory

  367. to Jesus! Hallelujah! Good, so now let's go to

  368. Luke chapter 1, everybody. Luke chapter 1 verse

    Luke 1 chapter mention Luke 1:73–77

  369. 73 to 77. Some people are trying to sleep. What

  370. were you doing in the night? Were you flying

  371. in the night? What were you doing in the night?

  372. You were flying in the night or what? Luke chapter

    Luke 1:72

  373. 1 verse 72. To perform the mercy promised to

  374. our father, see now everybody. So which means

  375. that what God spoke to Abraham, the scripture

  376. calls it what? The scripture calls it what? Promise.

  377. To perform the mercy promised to our fathers

  378. and to remember his holy covenant next verse.

  379. The oath which he swear to our what? Our father

  380. what? Abraham, yes, that he will grant to us

  381. that we being delivered out of the hand of our

  382. enemies might serve him without what? Without

  383. fear. in holiness and righteousness before him

  384. all the days of our lives, yes? And thou, child,

  385. shall be called the prophet of the highest, for

  386. thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to

  387. prepare his ways, seven, seven now, to give him

  388. knowledge of what? Of salvation unto his people

  389. by the remission of what? Of their sins. Speaking

  390. about Jesus now. Hallelujah. That the promise

  391. that communication that God was doing with Abraham,

  392. the scripture calls it what? Promise. And that

  393. promise is about who? About Christ. Glory to

  394. Jesus. That in Christ, all the nations of the

  395. earth will have salvation by the remission of

  396. their what? Of their sins. That's the communication.

  397. Amen? Good. So now, have a look at that now.

  398. Let's look at Hebrews chapter 6 verse 13. so

    Hebrews 6:13

  399. that we can quickly connect that. Hebrews chapter

    Hebrews 6:13

  400. 6 verse 13. Hebrews chapter 6 verse 13. Are we

    Hebrews 6:13

  401. all there everybody? We're gonna read it to 15.

  402. He said, for when God made promise to who? Let's

  403. read it together. For when God made promise to

  404. who? To Abraham. Because he could swear by no

  405. greater, he swore by what? By himself, 14. Saying,

  406. surely blessing I will do what? Bless thee. And

  407. multiplying I will what? Multiply thee. And so,

  408. after he had patiently endured, he obtained the

  409. what? He promised. So which means, the promise

  410. God gave Abraham, right? Did he obtain the promise?

  411. Yes. So God gave a promise to Abraham and God

  412. ensured that Abraham obtained the what? The promise.

  413. Hallelujah. Glory to God. Good. Now, having said

  414. all this, now let's go to Genesis 22 verse 1.

    Genesis 22:1

  415. Are we all working together? Is it clear? So

  416. God spoke to Abraham. The scripture calls that

  417. communication what? Promise. Amen. And then now

  418. from the promise, Abraham believed the promise,

  419. right? And then the scriptures say, because he

  420. believed, God accounted him as what? Righteousness.

  421. Glory to God. Now Genesis 22 verse 1, everybody.

    Genesis 22:1

  422. Genesis 22 verse 1, we're going to have a long

    Genesis 22:1

  423. reading to verse 14. And it came to pass after

  424. these things that God did tempt Abraham and said

  425. unto him, Abraham, and he said, behold, here

  426. I am. Next verse. And he said, Take now thy son,

  427. thy only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get

  428. thee into the land of Moriah, and offer him there

  429. for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains,

  430. which I will tell thee of. And Abraham rose up

  431. early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and

  432. took two of his young men with him, and Isaac

  433. his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering,

  434. and rose up, and went unto the place of which

  435. Baal had told him. Then on the third day Abraham

  436. lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.

  437. And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye

  438. here with us, and I and the Lord will go yonder

  439. and worship and come again to you. And Abraham

  440. took the wood of the burned offering and laid

  441. it upon Isaac his son, and he took the fire in

  442. his hand and a knife, and they went both of them

  443. together. And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father

  444. and said, My father. And he said, Here am I,

  445. my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the

  446. wood, but where is the lamb for a burned offering?

  447. And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself

  448. a what? God will provide himself a what? A lamb

  449. for a burnt offering. So they went, brought of

  450. them together, and they came to a place. Please,

  451. if it's your Bible, underline the word, God will

  452. provide himself a lamb. And they came to a place,

  453. with God I told him, and Abraham built an altar

  454. there and laid the wood in order, and down -icing

  455. his son and laid him on the altar upon the wood.

  456. And Abraham stretched forth his hand and took

  457. the knife to slay his son. And the angel of the

  458. Lord called out the hymn of heaven and said,

  459. Abraham, Abraham. And he said, here am I. And

  460. he said, lay not thy hand upon the lad, neither

  461. do thou anything unto him. For thou, for now,

  462. I know that thou fearest God, seeing that thou

  463. hast nowhere a son, but only a son from me. And

  464. Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold,

  465. behind him, a ram caught in a ticket in a ticket

  466. by his house amen don't forget Abraham said God

  467. will provide himself a what a lamb amen and Abraham

  468. went and took the ram offered him up for a brand

  469. of him instead of his what of his son 14 now

  470. and Abraham called the name of the place Jehovah

  471. what Jireh as it is said to this day in the mount

  472. of the Lord it shall be what it shall be what

  473. it shall be seen hebrews chapter 11 verse 17

    Hebrews 11:17

  474. so we know this story everybody amen we know

  475. this story so hebrews chapter 11 so we'll know

    Hebrews 11 chapter mention

  476. it now by revelation hebrews chapter 11 verse

    Hebrews 11:17

  477. 17 so the first question i will ask us The story

  478. we just read in Genesis, did it happen? It happened,

  479. right? Perfect, good. So let's hold that thought.

  480. It's very important now. There were certain characters

  481. in that story. Abraham was there, right? Isaac

  482. was there, right? Was God there? Yes, right?

  483. Then we now see angels. Let's add Ram. We now

  484. see Ram, right? let's add another element again

  485. we now see altar amen there was altar amen ropes

  486. knives everything was set amen good so please

  487. let's hold that thought it's important hebrews

  488. 11 17 everybody by faith by faith on wednesday

  489. i said something the old testament does not the

  490. new testament does not interpret what? The Old

  491. Testament. The Old Testament gives explanation

  492. to the what? To the New Testament. So if I want

  493. to understand the New Testament, I read what?

  494. The Old Testament. Amen. So now we've read the

  495. Old Testament as the story of Abraham, right?

  496. Is it clear to you? You understand? If I want

  497. to understand the New Testament, where do I need

  498. to go? The Old Testament, right? So we have read

  499. a story about Abraham from the Old Testament.

  500. Now we want to see it in the what? In the New

  501. Testament. Amen. By faith, Abraham, when he was

  502. tried, Amen, offered up what? Isaac. And he,

  503. he that had received the promise, offered up

  504. his only what? Begotten what? Son. Amen. Next

  505. verse, of whom it was said that in Isaac shall

  506. thy seed be called. You remember we read in Genesis

  507. and he was telling God that, but you have told

  508. me that through my seed you will multiply a nation.

  509. By the way, I don't have my own seed. I only

  510. have a seed from Eliezer and God still reaffirmed

  511. to him. The nations I want to bring out of you

  512. is not through the son of the slave. Through

  513. your bowels, I will bring out a what? A seed,

  514. amen? Good, so 18, 18, 18, 18. By of whom it

  515. was said that in Isaac shall thy seed be what?

  516. Because, next now, accounting that girl was able

  517. to do what? To raise him up. Raise him up means

  518. that Abraham had slaughtered Isaac and Isaac

  519. had died in that or on that altar, right? But

  520. Abraham believed. See, you know what, Abraham?

  521. Abraham had believed God in instructions and

  522. communication so much so that he knew, or he

  523. had known that when I go and sacrifice, Isaac

  524. on that altar. I know God will do what? Will

  525. raise him up. And that is why when Isaac told

  526. him, we don't have a ram. Abraham didn't tell

  527. Isaac, don't worry. When I kill you there, God

  528. will raise you up. No, imagine now he told Isaac,

  529. I will kill you there. And God, oh, let me say

  530. it this way. We're trying to do something with

  531. God with you. Tito had no knife and no fire.

  532. He said, don't worry, my father. Last week he

  533. called him my father. He said, my father, where

  534. is the knife? I said, don't worry. I will kill

  535. you on Mount Iskele. Right? And God will bring

  536. you back. He will raise you up. The first thing

  537. Tito will remember is his mother. But Abraham

  538. knew even if I had killed Isaac there God will

  539. raise Isaac back because God had already told

  540. me it's through Isaac I will multiply the nations

  541. of what? Of the earth. Three things are happening

  542. Abraham is knowing that God will do something

  543. biologically through me and spiritually God will

  544. also do what? Something through me Do you understand?

  545. So two communications are coming to Abraham.

  546. Biologically, Abraham knew that Isaac cannot

  547. be the sole progenitor of everybody in the world.

  548. Are you the direct descendant of Isaac? No, no,

  549. no. How are you related to Isaac? Are you connected

  550. to Isaac? Is Isaac your great -great -great -great

  551. -great father? So God will have not been communicating

  552. something biological. Even if the seed of Isaac

  553. is 10 billion, is 100 billion, where are the

  554. women on earth that through them, the whole nations

  555. of the earth will be multiplied by? We don't

  556. have that. So God will not be communicating to

  557. Isaac something what? Like to Abraham something

  558. biological. However, Abraham understood that

  559. something spiritual will come out of me and that

  560. is why he will remember that accounting that

  561. God was able to raise who? To raise him up even

  562. from what? From the death, from whence? Also,

  563. He received Him in a what? In a figure. Hallelujah!

  564. So now, let's now do something. I know some of

  565. us have not gotten this now. I know we have not

  566. gotten it. Let me make it very simple so that

  567. we can understand. Because we're building on

  568. this and we'll see how God will help us. Everybody

  569. please pay attention to me. Let me reiterate

  570. what I said now. God gave Abraham promise, right?

  571. He told Abraham something, go and offer your

  572. son. Amen. Abraham believed it. You know Abraham

  573. had been believing God, right? So this instruction

  574. is not a strange instruction to him. I hope we

  575. know. Good. He told him to leave his father's

  576. house and he left. Now he's telling him to sacrifice

  577. his son. So it's not gonna be a new thing. I

  578. hope you understand. So Abraham took the child.

  579. the child asking no where are we going you say

  580. we're going to go and offer a sacrifice but we

  581. don't have a what a ram so the child has an understanding

  582. of what sacrifice is he told him don't worry

  583. god has sent us he will provide himself with

  584. what a lamp they went there right but he bound

  585. the child i can just imagine as he said no daddy

  586. you said ram why are you tying my hands right

  587. he took the knife The scripture say he was about

  588. what? Putting the knife to slaughter him. The

  589. angel said what? Don't do it. That event happened

  590. literally. But now this is the spiritual part

  591. of it now. The communication God gave to Abraham,

  592. Hebrew will now give us a revelational knowledge

  593. about it. That that communication that it is

  594. a figure hallelujah it is a what a figure it

  595. is an illustration please write it figure when

  596. we say figure a figure means illustration is

  597. the greek word parable parable parable means

  598. illustration a pattern to place something side

  599. by side. Amen. So what we are doing is that we

  600. are placing Genesis, Abraham events today and

  601. Hebrews' revelational knowledge now. Now what

  602. happened with Abraham, Hebrews call it what?

  603. A seagull. What happened? Wait, literally did

  604. Abraham kill Isaac? No, but you see Hebrews is

  605. telling us that Isaac was ushered and God raised

  606. him up. But Abraham accounted it unto God that

  607. God gave him a what? A figure of what is to come.

  608. Hallelujah! Glory to Jesus! Glory to Jesus! Genesis

    Genesis 22:2

  609. chapter 22 verse 2. Now everybody fast. You see

  610. what he says? And he says, take not thy son.

  611. No, no, 22 verse 12. I said, let not thy hand

  612. upon the lad, neither do thou any unto him, for

  613. I know that thou searest what? God, seeing that

  614. thou hast no withheld, can you see? Seeing that

  615. thou hast no withheld thy son, thy only son from

  616. who? From me. So what Hebrew will say is that

  617. this action is an illustration that Abraham laid

  618. his begotten son and God raised him up. Hallelujah.

  619. Amen. So now, let your mind move fast now. Let

  620. your mind move fast. Now, let's look at so that

  621. I'll put a balance to it now. Hebrews chapter

    Hebrews 11:3

  622. 11 verse 3 everybody. Hebrews 11 3. Hebrews 11

  623. 3. To a faith we understand that the worlds were

  624. framed by the what? By the word of God so that

  625. the things which are seen were not made of the

  626. things Which do what? Which do appear. So the

  627. things God was communicating to Abraham, physically

  628. an event is happening, but spiritually something,

  629. an event about Christ is coming up. Hallelujah.

  630. So that the things we see are not made of the

  631. things that we do not what? We do not see. Faith.

  632. Right? And we see that is what is accounted to

  633. Abraham also. that Abraham was standing and seeing

  634. an event with his son but yet he could see that

  635. that is not what God was communicating to him.

  636. God was giving him a figo. Hallelujah. A promise

  637. of what is to come. Glory to Jesus. And then

  638. now, what do we see? Psalms 1 -1 -10 verse 4.

  639. Psalms 1 -1 -10 verse 4. The Lord has sworn and

  640. will not repent down at a priest forever after

  641. the order of what? After the order of what? Melchizedek

  642. now. Good. So hold that thought. Hebrews chapter

    Hebrews 6:15

  643. 6 verse 15. Hebrews 6 verse 15. We'll read it

    Hebrews 6:15

  644. to 20. Go over verse 14, please. Saying, surely

  645. blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I

  646. will what? Multiply thee. Next verse. And so

  647. after he had patiently endured, he obtained the

  648. what? The promise. For men verily swear by the

  649. greater, and oath for a confirmation is to them

  650. an end of all strife, right? Wherein God willing

  651. more abundantly to show unto us, or show unto

  652. the hairs of promise, the immutability of his

  653. counsel, confirmed with by what? By an oath.

  654. Next verse. That by two immutable things, in

  655. which it was impossible for God to lie, we might

  656. have a strong consolation. Who have fled for

  657. refuge, to lay hold upon the hope set before

  658. us? Nineteen. Which hope we have, as an anchor

  659. from the soul both sure and steadfast and which

  660. entered into that within the what the veil hallelujah

  661. 20 without the forerunner we did this on in our

  662. cell also people are there now without the forerunner

  663. is for us entered even who even jesus can we

  664. see that what God was swearing as a promise with

  665. an oath to Abraham he was swearing an oath with

  666. a promise to Abraham was about who? was about

  667. Jesus Christ as a forerunner even Jesus who was

  668. made as an high priest for what? forever after

  669. the order of Melchizedek hallelujah good now

  670. so now what are we getting from this place Hebrews

    Hebrews 4:14

  671. chapter 4 verse 14 Let's quickly do this now.

  672. So what we are learning is that God spoke a promise

  673. and Hebrew will give us a teaching, a revelation

  674. of knowledge. That promise is about who? About

  675. Christ. That Christ was the one that God swore

  676. an oath with. Amen. In fact, the way the Hebrew

  677. said is that he swore the oath so that the hairs

  678. of salvation will have an anchor. they will have

  679. a consolation. Amen? And so, how did God swore

  680. the oath? God swore the oath to ensure that somebody

  681. is sacrificed. And that person that is sacrificed,

  682. the scripture called him a forerunner, who is

  683. Jesus Christ. And the scripture said he is not

  684. only a forerunner, but he is also a priest. Because

  685. there's only priests, right, that are authorized

  686. to offer what? sacrifices. But now, Jesus is

  687. not only the priest that offers sacrifice, but

  688. he is the priest that offered himself as his

  689. Lord, as his sacrifice. And that is why the scripture

  690. says, he is the one that has entered behind the

  691. veil, and has entered into the heaven. Hallelujah!

  692. Jesus, the son of God, and he said, okay look,

  693. seeing then that we have a great Lord, high priest,

  694. that is passed into what? Into heavens. Jesus,

  695. the Son of God, let us hold fast to our what?

  696. The confession, same communication. Hallelujah!

  697. Hebrews 5 verse 5 to 6. Let's read these scriptures

    Hebrews 5:5–6

  698. because it will just help us in the things that

  699. we will just establish on Wednesday. I think

  700. we'll call this a threshold for this. Hebrews

  701. 5 verse, Hebrews 4. What am I saying? Hebrews

  702. 5 years by 5 to 6. So also Christ glorified not

  703. himself to be made a high priest, but he that

  704. said unto him, Thou art my son, today have I

  705. what? Begotten thee. And as he said also in another

  706. place, thou art a priest forever after the order

  707. of what? Melchizedek. Next verse now. Nine verse

  708. 11 to 12. Nine verse 11 to 12. Hebrews 9 verse

    Hebrews 9:11–12

  709. 11 to 12 but Christ being calm and high priest

  710. of good things to come by a greater and more

  711. perfect tabernacle not made with hands that is

  712. to say not of what? Not of this building neither

  713. by the blood of goats and calves but by his own

  714. blood he entered into once into the holy place

  715. having obtained eternal redemption for what?

  716. For us verse 26 fast verse 26 For then must he

  717. often have suffered since the foundation of the

  718. world, but now once in the end of the world hath

  719. he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice

  720. of what? Of himself. Don't forget Matthew chapter

    Matthew 1 chapter mention

  721. 1, he says, his name shall be called Jesus, for

  722. he shall accomplish a task, and the task is that

  723. he shall save what? His people from their what?

  724. From their sins. Next verse now. Let's quickly

  725. hold this. Romans 8 verse 34. Romans 8 verse

    Romans 8:34 Romans 8:34

  726. 34. Romans 8 verse 34. Who is he that condemneth?

    Romans 8:34

  727. It is Christ that what? That died. Here rather,

  728. that it is he that rise again. Who is even at

  729. the right hand of God, who also maketh what?

  730. Intercession for us. 8 verse 1. 8 verse 1. 8

  731. verse 1. There is therefore now no condemnation

  732. to them who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not

  733. after the flesh, but after the what? The spirit.

  734. 10 verse 12. Now, Romans 10 verse 12. For there

    Romans 10:12

  735. is no difference between the Jew and the Greek.

  736. For the same Lord over all is rich unto how many?

  737. Unto all that call what upon him. Hallelujah

  738. Glory to Jesus. Glory to Jesus. Glory to Jesus

  739. So what are we seeing from here? What we are

  740. seeing is that the promise that God gave to Abraham

  741. is a promise Let me put it this way now. It's

  742. an inclusion promise Do you know what I just

  743. said? It's an what? It's an inclusive promise

  744. for the whole nations of the earth that through

  745. Jesus, right, that the whole nations of the earth

  746. will be what? Will be saved. Through Christ,

  747. salvation will come to all. No Jew, no Greek,

  748. no Gentile, no male, no female. Hallelujah. And

  749. how is God going to achieve this? Write this

  750. down. God is achieving this through the resurrection

  751. of Jesus. He is achieving it through the resurrection

  752. of Jesus or he has achieved it. First that's

  753. happened. He has achieved it through the what?

  754. The resurrection of Jesus. And also how did Abraham

  755. receive the promise? The scripture says he patiently

  756. waited for the promise. Abraham received the

  757. promise or he obtained the promise what? Through

  758. the resurrection of Jesus. So what are we saying

  759. in essence? That what God preached to Abraham,

  760. he preached the gospel. Hallelujah. Amen. If

  761. you are writing, write it there. We'll just hold

  762. the thoughts there. That what God preached to

  763. Abraham, he preached the what? He preached the

  764. gospel. So how is that called the gospel? Galatians

    Galatians 3:8

  765. chapter 3 verse 8. Galatians chapter 3 verse

    Galatians 3:8

  766. 8. How is that called the gospel? The resurrection

  767. of Jesus Galatians chapter 3 verse 8. Everybody

    Galatians 3:8

  768. let's read together and the scripture wants to

  769. go and the scripture yes foreseeing that God

  770. will do what will justify unbelievers amen. Through

  771. what? What did he do? Preach before, right? The

  772. gospel unto who? Abraham. Where we read, did

  773. it sound like gospel? What God told Abraham is

  774. sacrifice your son. But what we are learning

  775. now in Epistos by Revelation now is that that

  776. event is called what? The gospel. Preach the

  777. gospel unto Abraham saying indeed shall all nations

  778. of the earth be what? be blessed. Let me summarize

  779. it this way now so that we can hold the thought.

  780. The word indeed shall all the nations of the

  781. earth be blessed is that indeed shall all the

  782. nations of the earth receive the remission of

  783. all their sins. Do you know what I just said?

  784. Indeed shall all the nations of the earth be

  785. saved through faith. That's the blessing. You

  786. know Abraham blessings are mine. Abraham blessings

  787. are mine. I am blessed in the morning, in the

  788. noon, in the evening. Abraham blessings are mine.

  789. That blessing is not money blessing. During Abraham's

  790. time, he was not on the Forbes list. Amen. The

  791. blessing that Abraham received is the blessing

  792. of the forgiveness of what? of sins is the blessing

  793. that all the nations of the earth will be saved

  794. is the blessing amen that through Jesus Christ

  795. all the nations of the earth will have what eternal

  796. life glory to Jesus hallelujah amen so you see

  797. we do start now everything that we're gonna do

  798. on Wednesday and ends on this topic for now Amen?

  799. It's gonna make, I believe, by the help of the

  800. Holy Spirit, that it's gonna place us at a place

  801. where not only to do greater works, right? But

  802. to move around, preaching the gospel by faith.

  803. Amen? Please, don't forget, we stop at God's,

  804. preach the what? The gospel. We preach the gospel,

  805. not only with faith, but with an understanding

  806. that we have power, right, of Jesus Christ. We

  807. will come against, I'm using the word carefully,

  808. we will come against sicknesses, we will come

  809. against circumstances, we will come against challenges,

  810. right, with the understanding of where we are

  811. in the name of who? In the name of Jesus. Hallelujah.

  812. Because two things we are looking at. One, we

  813. are looking at gospel in resurrection and then

  814. Tudor will look at right is power in resurrection

  815. these are the two elements that are in the name

  816. of Jesus two elements that are in the what the

  817. name of Jesus the gospel and the what the power

  818. because this is very important to the believer

  819. can we just appreciate what everybody can we
