Day 5: The Gifts of the Spirit (part 2)

Welcome to NECF Sermons. Each message here is

designed to uplift and strengthen you in your

walk with God. Don't miss out. Stay with us until

the end for a rewarding experience. Let's dive

right in. We continue from where we stopped yesterday.

As we are seated, can we just declare healing

on that mom? The mom with the obstructive disorder

or symptom and the lack of breathing. Can we

just declare healing? As we are seated, everybody,

can we just declare healing in the name of Jesus?

Right now, we declare healing. We declare healing

upon that mom in the name of Jesus. We declare

healing right now in the name of Jesus. We are

receiving report today that she is well. We are

receiving report today that she is healed in

the name of Jesus. We declare healing. We declare

healing right now in your body, mom. We declare

healing upon you. That lungs are functioning

normal. That trachea is functioning normal. Your

breathing is normal and you're talking normal

in the name of Jesus. We thank you, Father. We

bless you, Lord, for the healings. We thank you,

Lord, for the testimonies from the hyena symptom.

We thank you for the testimony from the lungs

issue. We thank you. We thank you. We thank you.

We thank you. And much more. Be thou glorified.

Be thou exalted. In Jesus' name we pray. There's

somebody, probably you're connected to, if you're

online or you're here, or you know somebody that

is connected here. Or you're connected to the

person. Right? But I see or I hear or I perceive

in my heart somebody with the name Stephanie.

Right? Probably you know somebody with the name

Stephanie. Or you're here or you're online, you're

listening. One of the things that Jesus is doing

in your life this morning is that he's healing

you of traumas. You know, I got into this hall,

I still had it clearly. Jesus is healing that

person. He's healing Stephanie. Stephanie, whether

you're online, you're hearing, or you know somebody

connected to that name, right? Reach out to the

person. The Holy Ghost is healing the person

of trauma. Trauma. In fact, I see childhood trauma.

You have held so much to it. But it's time to

let it go. Hallelujah. It's time to let it go.

Hallelujah. Because the Holy Ghost has stepped

in. Glory to Jesus. Hallelujah. Yes, we are going

to hear that before the day runs out. Glory to

Jesus. Are we all here? Has anyone received a

word here? Sorry. Any word, any word, any word?

This is Karatismos. That's how we're going to

be doing it. okay yes let's hear your word there

will be free flow of the supernatural way in

this meeting can we rejoice glory hallelujah

yes another word again by the spirit by the spirit

yes sir To do more. Hallelujah. You have been

desirous. You've been feeling that there is more.

God is calling you into more, more, more. Hallelujah.

Yes, so what God is doing in this season is that

he's bringing strength to you to step out. He's

bringing strength to you to take action. Hallelujah.

Can we rejoice? Glory! Hallelujah. Yes, word

again. Before we start. Yes, sir. If not, when

we start, everybody will give a word. Hallelujah.

I think when we trust the end of the prayer,

one thing that... It came to my spirit is, you

know, the yearnings and the desires in the hearts

of majority of people in this room. And the majority

of us also, we are yearning to see the tangible

expressions of the gifts and the way by which

we will remain committed or we will remain active.

The Spirit will find expression through us is

when we spend quality time with God. And one

thing that I saw clearly is the fact that when

we tarry with the Lord as we are charged up,

as we tarry with the Lord, we receive directly

from the mind of God. And when we receive from

the mind of God, we are able to be a blessing

to people. We have all the abilities in us. We

have all the capacity in us. To be a blessing

in the demonstration of the spirit. In diverse

ways. In words of knowledge. In words of wisdom.

In prophecy. In healing. In even knowing things

concerning people. But what God is bringing us

into. Is to bring us into our identity. That

we will see all that he has worked in us. And

the way by which this will be expressed massively.

Is by we spending time with him. Even in our

secret place. That we will have this. ability

to know how he works he will show us his ways

and his path and we will be of a blessing to

many people so the reason why oftentimes we don't

see ourselves express much more of god is that

we don't spend time with him so what god is doing

in this season he's saying that he's bringing

us into a place that we know all that we have

all that he has done in us and not only that

we know but we know how to operate in it and

the simplest way by which we can walk fully in

the expression of all that is in us is when we

depend on him we're spending time with him in

a secret place and we're not just spending time

with him just to receive uh just to to present

our request we are spending time to just hear

him as he leads us that is how we will see effectiveness

in our ministry when we spend time with him spending

time with God, knowing his ways, even the specific

meetings. As we go out, before we go out, we

spend time with God. God will show us the things

to do. He will show us what to do. He will show

us who to do, who to go to, and what specific

things we will meet on the path. Our hearts will

be illuminated with the insight of the things

that we will come across. And we rejoice. Glory.

Hallelujah. John chapter 3. John chapter 3 verse

John 3 · chapter mention John 3 · chapter mention

14. Let's just a little bit retrace backwards

and then get it from there. I remember I told

us to write belly, right? Yes. So John chapter

John 3 · chapter mention

3. Let's go back to that John chapter 3. You

John 3 · chapter mention

know, there has been a conversation between Nicodemus

and then Jesus, right? About the water and the

spirit that has to do with being born again and

then entering into the kingdom. Hallelujah. Yes.

And then now, we now see what Jesus will tell

him in verse 12. He said, if I have told you

earthly things and ye believe not, how shall

ye believe if I tell you of what? Of heavenly

things. Hallelujah. And he said, and no man had

ascended up to heaven, but he that came down

from heaven, even the Son of Man, who is in what?

In heaven. 14 now. He said, and as Moses lifted

up serpent in the wilderness, even so must the

Son of Man be what? Be lifted up. Glory to Jesus.

That whosoever believeth in him shall not perish,

but have what? So, when will we believe, right?

To have eternal life from the lifting up of Jesus.

Amen? He said the Son of Man will be lifted up.

Then whosoever believeth in him will not perish,

but have what? Eternal life. Then now he now

says, for God so loved the world that he gave

his only begotten Son, right? That begotten Son

now is lifted up. Glory to Jesus. And then now,

whosoever believeth in him shall not, what? Perish,

but have, what? Everlasting life. Are we all

here? Yes. Good. So, and then we now said that

being lifted up is not as he just, just we see

just Jesus would just be standing and then some

form of wind will just elevate him up and then

he's in the air and everybody that just look

at him and suddenly, literally as what Moses

did. Amen. But we see now, Jesus will refer back

to Numbers, what happened, right? Regarding what

Moses did to the children of Israel, right? When

the serpent will now strike them. They look up

at the serpent and then they are healed. Amen.

So now, why would Jesus say that John chapter

John 12 · chapter mention

12, now let's look at John chapter 12 verse 32

John 12:32

to see what he meant by saying, if the son of

man be lifted up as Moses lifted up serpent in

the wilderness. See John chapter 12 verse 32.

John 12:32

He said, and if, and I, if I be lifted up from

the earth, I will draw all men, what? Unto me,

33. This he said, signifying what dead he shall

what? What dead he shall what? So, what was Jesus

saying? If he said, if I be lifted up, he was

talking about his what? He's talking about his

death. Amen? So, from his death. From his resurrection,

whosoever believeth, right, will not perish but

have what? Everlasting life. So we understand

what it means when Jesus is saying that if I

be what? Lift her up. He is signifying his what?

His death. Glory to Jesus. Glory to Jesus. Yeah,

so where was he caught in from? Right? Numbers

Numbers 21:9

chapter 21 verse 9. Everybody, let's go there.

Numbers chapter 21 verse 9. Numbers 21 verse

Numbers 21:9 Numbers 21:9

9. And Moses made a serpent of brass and put

it upon a what? A pole. And it came to pass that

if a serpent had beaten any man, when he beheld

the serpent of brass, he what? He leave it. Glory

to Jesus. Yes, so Jesus was speaking from this

typology of events. that happened with the children

of israelites he said the same thing that we

see that has happened there is the same experience

or the same event that is going to happen with

me and people will what will leave but you see

this kind of living is not the living that the

children of israelite had because they lived

and died but he said from this similar event

that will happen Right? So what he's saying is

that Jesus will use this earthly event to communicate

about an heavenly, what? Reality that is going

to happen. Because now, his point of speaking

is about eternal life. Glory to Jesus. Yeah,

so that if I be lifted up, signifying my death,

burial and resurrection, from there now, people

will have not life, but they will have everlasting,

what? Everlasting life. Glory to Jesus. Good.

So, now, we know what being lifted up is. Are

we all here? So, now, from that place now, we

now... We connect back again to where we've been

reading about water, right? We said that he will

use the term water to signify or speak about

newness, freshness. Glory to Jesus. John 7, 37

to 39. Let's go back to John 7. I hope we remember

where we came from. We came from Ezekiel, right?

We came from Ezekiel. And then we are talking

about the spirit indwelling the believer. Amen.

And then the prophecy that Ezekiel gave about

what God is going to do to the house of Israel

is that he will do what? He first told them that,

you know, among the hidden, they profaned his

name. But what he's going to do is that he will

what? He will remove them from the hidden. He's

removing, let me put it this way. He's removing

them from unbelief. That's what salvation does.

So salvation removes you from what? From unbelief.

So he's removing them from unbelief. He will

cleanse them. He will wash them. He will give

them a new heart and he will put his spirit in

them. And then we now see also that what Jesus

will say in John chapter 4 about the living water

John 4 · chapter mention

he is giving. is that I will give you a living

water. And he said that living water will be

in whosoever that comes to me to drink it. And

from within him, right, there will be a springing

up of well. And then out of, we see, that well,

he said it will spring up what? Into what? Everlasting

life. Are we all here? Yeah, so we did that.

Yesterday, somebody said, why are we taking this

time? We are taking this time because we are

building conviction. Conviction upon what? Conviction.

You have this reality, let me put it this way,

at the tip of your finger. I think either Pastor

Victor or Pastor Ima, I think Pastor Victor,

he said it's not about quoting, quoting, quoting,

quoting, quoting, quoting, quoting, quoting.

So after you quote, Then what next? The scriptures

must become conviction for the believer, not

information for the believer. Do you hear what

I just said? The scriptures must become what?

Convictions for the believer. Because you see,

this letter, what powers this letter is the spirit

of God. I think Pastor Victor taught us from

John chapter, is it six, right? Yes, John chapter

six. Right? We read that place all through to

63. The Spirit giveth what? Life. So what gives

life that we are discussing? Greater works. Yesterday

I started out by saying that greater works are

the works of the Holy Ghost in the what? In the

believer. Or another way you put it, the continuation

of Jesus' work on the earth in and through the

believer by the Holy Ghost. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Yes, so he's powered by the Spirit of God. So

John chapter 7 now. John chapter 7. John chapter

John 7 · chapter mention John 7 · chapter mention John 7 · chapter mention

7. John chapter 7 verse 37. In the last day,

John 7:37

that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and

cried saying, if any man thirsts, let him come

unto me and what? And drink. We see water again

and drinking. He that believeth on me as the

scripture hath what? Said. Had the scripture

hath said, Out of his belly shall flow what?

Rivers of living water. But this spake he of

the Spirit, which they that believe on him shall

what? Receive. So he was talking about water.

But now we see that now in the next communication,

he's saying that what? That speaking of water

he's talking about, he's speaking about what?

The Spirit. glory to jesus for the holy ghost

was not yet given because that jesus was not

yet yet what glorified we can if it's your bible

you can say because jesus was not yet lifted

up it's the same thing amen well we just read

now in john chapter 12 that he was signifying

John 12 · chapter mention

his what his death if i be lifted up i will draw

all men what unto me so the spirit had not yet

been what given because jesus was not yet what

lifted up and when we say being lifted up we

mean what his dead burial and what a resurrection

okay good perfect so now and then we now from

that place now that we read we now said um we

wrote a word belly right yeah so the word belly

is from the word koilia it's not koila that word

is from the greek word koilia koilia so it's

not the english term that we use koilia k -o

-i -l -i -a which implies to mean the womb the

womb or the innermost being the womb or the innermost

being where something begins or something is

born. Glory to Jesus. It refers to or it implies

to what? The womb where something begins. Innermost

being where something begins or what? Or something

is born. It's the same thing that we see where

we read in John chapter 3. Let's go there very

John 3 · chapter mention

fast. In John chapter 3 verse 4, he said, Nicodemus

John 3:4

said unto him, How can a man be born when he

is old? Can he enter the second time into his

mother's coilia and be born? Can he enter into

his mother's womb, right? Into his mother's belly

and be what? And be born? So from there now,

we say out of his belly shall flow. The word

flow means Rio. So out of his belly, out of his

womb, out of his innermost being, right? Shall

flow. So the word flow is Rio. R -H -E -O. R

-H -E -O. Rio. Which implies giving up, giving

of something. Pouring something out. Giving something

out, pouring something out, out of his koilia,

right? Shalrio, giving something, pouring something

out. So what Jesus was speaking, he was not referring

to something literal, just like the river, right?

I stay around the river side, right? We have

the river Benue move around our axis. He was

not talking about literal river. He was not talking

about out of his belly, out of Custon's belly

shall flow rivers. Come on now. So imagine now

you see me as I'm standing here. Water is flowing

out of me. So Jesus will have not been speaking

something literal. Glory to Jesus. He will not

be speaking something literal. So, but hence,

what Jesus was communicating about rivers will

flow, he's communicating about there is something,

there is an abundance. There's an abundance of

a reality that will flow out of his what? Out

of his belly. So that word rivers, what Jesus

was talking about is there will be a gushing.

Right? That rivers, they say there will be a

what? a gushing so if you check you see talking

about there will be a gushing an abundance of

rio but you see careful now that place he said

out of his belly shall flow rivers not what not

river glory to jesus so which means that That

gushing, that abundance flow, that pouring out

that will be coming out of his belly, right,

will be more than what? One place. So when it

flows, it will be beyond one place. It will be

happening in many places. Is that clear? It will

be happening in many places. So a big question

will be, whose belly? Whose belly? will the rivers

be what be flowing from whose belly out of his

belly shall flow out of my belly shall flow rivers

rivers of living water so is the scripture saying

that it's out of your belly because that scripture

says that out of his what belly did he say that

you are the one did he put your name there did

he say out of the believer out of the believer's

belly so whose belly they like changing so many

songs they'll be changing changing changing changing

changing we have to change it so that it will

align With our realities in Christ Jesus. Glory

to Jesus. So, verse 38 now says, let's go to

38. He that believeth on me, as the scripture

has said, out of his belly shall what? Flow rivers

of what? Living water. Right? But this spake

he of the Spirit, which they that believe on

him shall receive, for the Holy Ghost was not

yet given. Because that Jesus was not yet what?

Glorified. So he was speaking about what? The

Spirit. The Spirit will be flowing. Is it from

you? Because we are talking about the Spirit,

right? So the Spirit will be. So where will the

source of the Spirit be from? That's what the

scripture is saying. Out of his belly shall flow

rivers of living water. And we say he is speaking

about the Spirit. So the spirit is going to flow

from whose belly? Amen. Glory to Jesus. And he

says that because Jesus was not yet what? Glorified.

So what that scripture is now saying is that

because Jesus is not yet glorified, yet we are

not yet seeing the giving of the spirit. Is that

clear? Are we all here? Good. So now, what we

now see again about out of his belly or the belly,

the word womb, right? What Jesus is speaking

clearly from this scripture, he's talking about

is upon my glorification. Because he said now

that, as the scripture says, out of his belly

shall flow rivers of living water. This he spoke

of he, right? But this spoke he of what? of the

spirit. He is not speaking about custom. He is

not speaking about color. He is not speaking

about sweetness. He is not, you know, he is speaking,

he is speaking of what? He, the spirit. That

day, that belief on him should what? Receive,

for the Holy Ghost was not yet what? Giving.

So the Holy Ghost will be giving upon the reality

of an event. And that event is that Jesus needs

to be glorified. Are you all with me on that

verse? He said, because Jesus was not yet glorified,

so the Spirit has not been yet what? Given. But

when Jesus is glorified, the Spirit will be what?

Will be given. And they that believe on Jesus

will now receive the Spirit. So what we are saying

is that Jesus' glorification guarantees the pouring

out of the Spirit. That they that believe on

Him will now receive the Spirit. So when he says,

out of his belly shall flow, he's talking about

the belly that will pour out the rivers of living

water will be upon Jesus' glorification. His

resurrection. So his death, his burial, and his

what? His resurrection. He says, how did we know?

Just simply, 738 says, he that believeth on me

as the scripture has what? Had said. So that

phrase, as the scripture had said, Pastor Victor

emphasized this during his session. He said the

whole of the scripture has one essence. One message.

One. From Genesis to Revelation, one message.

One essence. What's the message? Christ Jesus.

And we have learned so much in this church to

know that when we say, as the scripture, when

Jesus said, as the scripture had said, what do

you think he's referring to? Huh? Huh? What did

he say? Genesis to what? To Malachi. I'll say

something, but I'll not say it. You see, often

when you see Jesus, when he says something, often

you will now see that he said this thing that

it may be fulfilled by what prophet Isaiah had

said. Often you see the scripture in the gospels,

right? He said, this happened that it may be

fulfilled, right? Of what prophet Isaiah had

said. But now we see that we're not seeing that

the prophet Isaiah had said. We're not seeing

Ezekiel has said. But we are seeing Jesus saying,

as the scripture had what? Had said, out of his

belly shall flow what? Rivers of living water.

And we say the scripture has one message. Don't

ever in this church hold this reality. The whole

of the scripture has one essence, one message.

Christ Jesus is dead, burial and what? Resurrection.

Amen. John chapter 1 verse 45. John chapter 1

John 1:45 John 1:45

verse 45. John chapter 1 verse 45. Philip found

John 1:45

Nathaniel and said unto him, We have found him

of whom Moses in the law and the prophets did

write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of who? The

son of Joseph. And Nathanael said unto him, Can

there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip

said unto him, Come and what? And see. We have

found him. We have found him of whom Moses in

the law and the prophets have what? Did write

or did speak about. So we say that the whole

of the scripture has one essence. Christ Jesus.

And we see them saying, we have found him of

whom Moses and all the prophets have what? Spoken

about. So the question will be, what is it that

Moses and all the prophets have spoken about?

The scripture? Christ Jesus. Is that clear enough?

Is it clear enough? John 5, 39. John 5, 39. John

5, 39. Search the scriptures. For in them ye

think ye have eternal life, and they are they

which testify of what? So the scriptures testify

of who? They testify of Jesus. We have found

him whom Moses and the Lord speak about. And

now we are reading John chapter 5 verse 39. He's

John 5:39

saying that for the scriptures testify of who?

Testify one essence, one message about Christ

Jesus. So what are we saying in essence? We are

saying that now, right? That the scriptures testify

about what? About Christ. So let me ask us now

with what we have done. Go to John chapter 7

John 7 · chapter mention

everybody. So that we close here. I will not

tell us. We are the ones that will say it. So

John chapter 7 verse 38. He that believeth on

John 7:38

me as the scripture hath said. Out of his belly

shall flow rivers of living water. So the scripture

is talking about who? Whose belly now? From who

will the Spirit be? From where? Christ Jesus.

He's not speaking about you. Amen? What we are

singing is that we are not saying that out of

our belly shall flow. What we are saying is that

it's a reality of the things of the Spirit will

flow from our inside. We don't have anything

against it. But you see, as far as this scripture

is concerned, you're not the one he's talking

about. He's talking about Christ Jesus. Hallelujah.

Because what Christ said, as the scripture had

what? Had said. And then the next verse starting,

I say, but this speak he. So he's speaking of

who? Of Christ Jesus. Because from Christ Jesus,

the spirit will be giving amen so the communication

here is about christ is about christ jesus and

the giving of the spirit and this giving of the

spirit will happen upon what glorification are

we done here are we done here glory to jesus

so we see christ will consistently talk about

the giving of the spirit the giving of the spirit

the giving of the spirit the giving of the spirit

wait let me let me all that we have done so far

is it clear Is there any confusion? Is it clear?

You're sure? Is it clear? William, is it clear?

Is it clear? Okay. So you can explain it. You

can explain it. You're sure? You can explain

it. Don't do like this. Nancy, you can explain

this. Okay. At least if there are two, three

people. that can explain it in my class not here

all of us can explain it but in my class i mean

in class in the university you know pastor victor

said there are some students that they will never

understand they choose not to understand what

you're teaching never so at least if you are

marking the exam i just see one 195 you are glad

we are done for the semester You can ask my co

-laborer, you know, in marking scripts. Sometimes

when they see some things, they are just frustrated.

Like, serious? What is it? I can't even read

it. I always say, two people make your life easy

when you're marking scripts. The dull ones and

the excellent ones. You know the dull ones, you

just go... That's all. What do you do? That's

all. You are done. Yes. Excellent ones. You mark

it. You are smiling. You are smiling. Everything

makes sense. I always threaten them. To whom

much is given, much is expected. If you are an

excellent student in my class, I will treat you

in a hard way. I will ensure I read line by line.

Oh, Jam, why are you doing this? Yes, yes, yes.

I expect more from you. He says, do you not mean

that you should not know us? I say, yes, maybe.

Glory to Jesus. Yes, so now, all that we see,

the emphasis from Ezekiel to now is about the

giving of what? Of the Spirit. And that Spirit

will be received by those who believe on what?

On Christ Jesus. Amen. So now, John chapter 14,

John 14:16–17

verse 16 to 17. So we see lots of scriptures

where Jesus will give credence, right, to the

promise of the Holy Ghost. that will be in the

believer john chapter 14 verse 16 to 17 see what

John 14:16–17

the scripture says and i will pray the father

and he shall give you another comforter that

he may abide with you how forever even the spirit

of truth whom the world cannot receive because

it seared him not neither knoweth him but ye

know him for he dwelleth where and where will

the spirit be and shall be where in you in you

15 26 15, 26. But when the Comforter is come,

whom I will send unto you from the Father, even

the Spirit of Christ that is in you, which proceeded

from the Father, he shall testify of what? Of

me. John 16, 7 -15. John 16, 7 -15. Nevertheless,

I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you

that I go away. For if I go not away, the Comforter

will not come unto you. But if I depart, I will

send him where? Unto you. And when he is come,

he will reprove the world of sin and of righteousness

and of judgment, of sin because they believe

not on me, of righteousness because I go to my

father and ye see me no more, of judgment because

of the prince of this world is judged. And I

have yet many things to say unto you, but ye

cannot bear them. Howbeit when he, the spirit

of truth, right, is come, he will guide you into

all truth. For he shall not speak of himself,

but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak,

and he will show you things to come. He shall

glorify me, for he shall receive of mine and

shall show it unto you. All things that the Father

hath had are mine. Therefore said I, that he

shall take of mine and shall show it to who?

Show it unto you. Hallelujah. John 14, 1, 2.

John 14, 1, 2. He that hath seen me hath seen

the what? The Father. And how said thou then,

show us the Father? Believest not thou that I

am in the Father? Right? And the Father in me?

The words that I speak unto you, I speak not

of myself, but the Father that dwelleth in me,

he doeth what? The works. Believe me that I am

in the Father, and the Father in me. Or else,

believe me for what? For the very works sake.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth,

what? On me, the works that I do, shall he do

what? Also. Let's connect something very fast

so that we can make this fast. Verse 10. Believest

not thou that I am where? In the Father, and

the Father where? In me. The works that I speak

unto you, I speak not what? But the Father that

dwelleth in me, he dwelleth what? The works.

Then go to 12 now. The Father in me doeth the

what? The works. The words that I speak, the

Father speaks. The works that I do, the Father

does the works. Right? Now, 12. See, very. Verily,

verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on

me, the works that I do, shall he what? Do also.

So, what's Jesus saying there? Connect verse

10 to 12 now. Connect 10 and 12. What's he saying

there? I am in the Father, the Father in me,

the words that I speak, he speaks through me,

the works that I do, he does the work through

me. And then verse 12 says, if you believe on

me, the works that I do, shall you do also. What's

that place saying now? 10 and 12. Yes, my helpers,

helpers. Okay, the Father unites with, I mean,

in the aspect of works now. The Father will be

there. The Father is the one working in what?

In the believer. I am in the Father. The Father

in me. The words that I speak. The Father speaks.

The works that I do. The Father does the work.

But now he's not saying that. If you believe

in me. What Jesus said now. If you believe in

the Father also. So the Father will be in you.

You will be in the Father. The works that you

have seen, I have done, which the Father doeth

the work, so also you will, what? Do the work.

So what Jesus is saying in essence there, is

that the Father is the one that will be working

through you. Glory to Jesus. But he didn't only

stop there. He said, and greater works than these,

shall he, what? Shall he do, because I go on

to what? My father. So the father is in the man

that believes doing the work and also greater

works. That's why I say greater works are the

continuation of Jesus' work in and through the

believer by the Holy Ghost. Do you hear what

I just said? That greater works are the continuation

of what? Jesus' work in and through the believer

by The Holy Ghost. Are we getting where we are

going? Are we getting it? Glory to Jesus. Because

all that we've read, now you now see that, he

said, believe also in me, right? Or believe in

me, or believes me. Or, yea, believe in God,

also believe in me. Believe it on me or believe

me. You see, all these words used. Right? For

the man that will be in Christ Jesus. John 14,

12 now. Again, where we are. It's just the way

we are. It's a very, very, I say unto you, he

that believeth on me, the works that I do, shall

he do also. And greater works than these shall

he do. Because I what? I go to the Father. Big

question will now be, what work? What work? What

work? We're going to run over this now because

we've learned a lot extensively on it. Amen?

So we're not going to dwell so much on it. John

10, 38. John 10, 38. John 10, 38. But if I do,

let's read from verse 37. If I do not the works

of my father, believe me what? Believe me not.

But if I do the works of my father, do ye believe

not on me? Believe the works that ye may know

and believe that the father is in me and I what?

And I in him. So the works that I do testify

that the father is in me. And I am where? I am

in the Father. I just said something now. The

works that the believer does should testify that

the Father is in the believer and the believer

is in the Father. How? By the Holy Ghost. Glory

to Jesus. And that's why we're asking, what works?

John 9, verse 1. Because the communication started

John 9:1

from there. And Jesus passed by, he saw a man

who was blind from his birth. Right? And his

disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did

sin? This man or his parents, that he was born

what? That he was born blind. We have learned

here. So often when they see some of this kind

of manifestation, they believe that it's a product

of sin. Right? In verse 3, Jesus answered, Neither

had this man sinned, nor his parents, but that

the works of God should be made manifest where?

In him. We are coming from somewhere. The works

that I do testify that I am in the Father, and

the Father is what? Is in me. He said, believe

me on these works. And if you believe me, the

works that I do, you will also what? You will

also do. And greater works than this, you will

also do. And then now, in verse 3, Jesus is saying

that, neither had this man seen nor his parents,

but that the works of God should be made manifest

in who? In him. Verse 4 now, everybody, pay attention.

He finished speaking about the works of God should

be made manifest what? In him. Now see verse

4 now. He said, I must work the works of him

that what? That send me while it is day, the

night cometh when no man can what? Can work.

We started out by saying, what work was Jesus

referring to? In verse 3, One of the first works

that we see that is happening in John 9, 3, we

see the work of healing. Hallelujah. We see the

work of what? Of healing. You will never see

in this scripture, in this whole scripture, right?

God making provision about sickness. Never. What

do you see? God is making provision for what?

For healing. You will never see any promise made

by God about sickness. But you will see promises

made by God about what? About healing. In fact,

let's just cast your mind back to Ezekiel. You

disdained me. You profaned my name. You lived

in filthiness. You worshipped idols. You left

me. But yet, I have turned back again to say,

I, I, your God, will remove you. I told you to

be saying, I will punish you. I will ensure enemies

kill all of you. No. So what works are we seeing

in verse 3? We are seeing the works of what?

The works of healing. Neither had this man seen

nor his parents, but that the works of God should

be made manifest where? In him. So we see the

works of healing. Being made manifest. John 14,

12. Where we just came from. The works of him

that send me. John 14, 12. So upon my going unto

the Father, all these events will be a reality

to the man that believes on me. Hallelujah. The

works that I do, you will also do. Because I

go unto what? My Father. So the understanding

that I've gone to my Father, right? will give

you that authority to do the works that I what?

That I do. And even greater. Glory to Jesus.

I'm trying to see how I can run this because

we have already done it here. John 14 2 now.

Do I need to do this or let's do the revision?

I think it's revision. Yes, because we know this

now. John 14 2. In my father's house are many

mansions. Yes, house, house, house, house, house,

house. His revision. House. Should we close for

the day? We need coffee break. Okay. Yes. In

my father's house. Yes. What's house? Oikea.

Okay. Oikea means what? Huh? Household. Okay.

How many mansions? Mansions? Monet. Monet means

what? Dwelling place. Okay, so you have helped

me cover now a chunk of my work. Amen? So which

means that now we just need to establish that

from the scripture. 14 .2 now says that in my

father's house are many mansions. If it were

not so, I would have not told you. I go to prepare

a place for what? For you. Amen? I go to prepare

a place for you in verse 3. And if I go and prepare

a place for you, I will come again and receive

you unto myself, that where I am, there ye may

be also. This communication, hold it carefully.

Because Jesus has already said something. He

said, you are in me. Oh, I am in the Father.

The Father is in me. The words that I speak,

he speak at them. The works that I do, he is

the one that is doing the work. Amen. And then

now he's not saying, if you believe also on me,

these works that I do. Amen? He said, the same

work that I've done or I'm doing, you will also,

what? Do the works and greater works. So now

he's not saying that, right? 3, John 14, 3. He

said, and receive you unto myself, that where

I am, there ye may be, what? Also, so you see

that what Jesus will say. The works that I'm

doing, you will also do because you and Jesus

are in the same place. Hallelujah. Yeah, so why

you will do the works? Because you and Jesus,

what? You are in the same place. This is important.

Then now, we have already mentioned what oikia

is. Oikia means house, right? John 4, 53. John

4, 53. John 4, 53. Conviction upon conviction.

Jesus said unto them, John 4, 53. So the father

knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus

said unto him, thy son liveth, and he himself,

and he himself believed, and his what? And his

what? And his whole house. So do you think it's

the whole building that believed? When he says,

and his whole house believe. Is he talking about

the roof, the windows, the doors, the rats, the

chickens, the lizards? When he says his whole

house believe, what does he mean? His family.

So we see household speaking about people. Amen?

Same word, oikia, household. Talking about what?

Talking about people. So in that place, the question

is not about what? A place, but about what? People.

Mark 3, 24. Mark 3, 24. Please, we have been

taught so much about context, right? So stay

with it. Mark 3, 24. And if a kingdom be divided

against itself, the kingdom cannot stand. 25.

And if a house be divided against itself, that

house cannot stand. Do you think he's talking

about a house breaking itself? What's he talking

about there? Huh? He's talking about a place

of people. He's talking about people. Hallelujah.

So because literally a house cannot divide against

what? Itself. So we now see a household again.

So if his household is divided against itself,

it cannot what? It cannot stand. The same word.

Mark 6 .4. Mark 6 .4. But Jesus said unto them.

A prophet is not without honor. But in his own

country. And among his own king. And in his own

house. What do you think that scripture will

be talking about? Same thing. And among his own

household. His own people. So we can now safely

say that when we say oikia, speaking about house,

we are talking about what? Household, people.

Amen? Glory to Jesus. He now says, in my father's

house, there are many what? There are many mansions.

Don't forget, we are talking about oikia. He's

talking about household, people. In my father's

family. In my father's people. In my father's

family. In my father's what? People. Don't forget,

there's a reason for that. Now, there are many

what? Mansions. If it were not so, I would have

not told you I go to prepare what? A place for

you. So, when Jesus says, in my Father's house,

let's say for instance now, right? We are speaking

with you and then you tell me, in my Father's

house, We have a helipad. You know, two of the

choppers my father has. One is for me and one

always, you know. We have a garage with fleets

of cars. However, every of those descriptions

are in my father's house. So what does that tell

you? When you say in my father's house, it tells

you of what? Please, when we do Bible studies

like this, don't take your mind and be thinking

of something supernatural, something big is happening.

You know, please bring your mind here. When we

say in my father's house, bring your mind. You

belong to the house. Thank you. I dropped all

my currencies in my back there. Amen. Yes. It

talks about relationship. You see, Jesus will

say that the father is in me and I am in him.

I'm not saying that in my father. It tells you

that I have a relationship with who? With my

father. This is a relationship. So it's not just

a family, right? That everybody is on his own.

Because we just read that if a family is divided

against itself, it shall not what? Stand. No,

but this type of family, there is a unity. There

is a union. There is a relationship. So we said

the word mansion. I need to say that. Mansion,

we said the word is what? Mone. Mone is M -O

-N -E. Right? Mone, M -O -N -E. John 14, 23.

Let's see where he says that again. John 14,

23. John 14, 23. He says this. He said, Jesus

answered and said unto him, If a man love me,

he will keep my words, and my Father will love

him, and we will come unto him and make our abode

with him. That word abode there is the same word

mone. Amen? It's not speaking literal mansion

that is in our head. A guy going to Iskele and

buying a space on the ocean and then sand filling

it and then building something that is out of

city. No. The Greek word for that money is not

talking about that that is in our mind. But rather,

that word mone, if you check it in the Septuagint

also, you realize it's talking about a staying

place, a dwelling place. Amen? And in fact, it's

not only a dwelling place, an individual dwelling

place. So in my father's family, there is what?

There is an individual dwelling place. There's

a place where an individual stays. Hallelujah.

In my father's family. That's the word mentioned

there. The word prepare. The word prepare means

hitoi mazo. It actually means to make ready.

To make ready. Verse 2 says, I go to prepare

a place for you. In my father's household, in

my father's family, there are many spots, individual

places. If it were not so, I would have what?

Told you, I go to prepare what? A place for you.

So what Jesus is saying, is that I go to prepare

spots, places, that many will come into this

family. Glory to Jesus. It will not only be me

and the Father. It will not be a relationship

between only the Father and myself. But now it

will be a relationship, what? Of many. That's

why you see, you say, whosoever thirsts, shall

come and drink. Whosoever thirsts, shall come

and what? Drink. It will be... A place for many,

many, many. In fact, the way I was preparing,

it came to my mind. He said, in God's family,

we have money that can take the 7 point something

billion of us on the earth. Glory to Jesus. So

you see, why we now say, with me. God wins billions

of souls with me. He takes over territories.

What we are saying in essence, in our father's

family, billions of souls can still join that

family. What are we saying? We cannot exhaust

that. Hallelujah. So what we are saying in essence,

that in my father's family, we will be many.

Hallelujah. We will be what? We will be many.

Greater works. We will be many. It will not just

be a few of us. We will be many. So he says,

if I go, that word, if I go to prepare, I say

that word prepare is what? H -E -T -O -I -M -A

-Z -O. H -E -T -O -I -M -A -Z -O. It means I

go to make ready. I go to make ready. That's

the word hitomazo. H -E -T -O -I -M -A -Z -O.

I go to make necessary preparations. I go to

get everything ready. Hallelujah. I make everything

ready. I make it fit. For every one of us to

dwell in. Then he now says. Where I am. He says

where I am. There ye may be what? Also. Where

I am. Where I stand. That is where you will what?

You will stand. Where are we going to stand?

In the father's family. Hallelujah. So you see

now. That will validate where we're coming from.

When Jesus will say, I am in the Father and the

Father is in me. And when you believe, also you

become part of what? The family. So the works

that I do, the Father does the work. Now the

work you will do, right? Also the Father will

do what? Will do the work through you. Because

you are part of the family. So the works are

not left only for Jesus, but the works also will

continue in the believer. Hallelujah. They will

continue in the believer. So where Jesus is standing,

there also I am standing. Glory to Jesus. John

14, 11, see. He said, believe me that I am in

the Father and the Father in me, or else believe

me for the very what? For the very work's sake.

And we say, where is Jesus? Jesus is in the Father.

The Father is in Jesus. I am in the Father. And

the Father is in me also. Glory to Jesus. John

14, 18 now. John 14, 18. I will not leave you

comfortless. I will come to you. Yet a little

while, and the world will see me no more. But

ye see me because I live. Ye shall what? Ye shall

live. Also. 19. Yet a little while and the world

will see me. No more. And ye see me because I

live. Ye shall what? Live also. 20. At that day,

ye shall know that I am in the Father. Ha! And

ye in me. And I where? And I in you. Let's read

it again carefully. 20. At that day, ye shall

know that I am what? And ye in, and I in, and

I in you. 1426. So how is this reality going

to happen? But the Comforter, who is the Holy

Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name,

he shall teach you all things and bring all things

to your remembrance, whatsoever I have what?

I have said to you. 15, 26. We read it again.

We are going back to it. But when the comforter

is come, whom I will send unto what? Let's connect

this now, carefully. Everybody, let's connect

it. John 14, 11. Pay attention. John 14, 20.

Sorry. 14, 20. At that day, ye shall know that

I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in...

The father in me. I am in the father. And I am

in. In you. Then now I now say. Let's read. John

what? 1526. But when the comforter is come. Whom

I will. Whom I will. Send to who. Let's talk

now. Whom I will send. From the father. Even

the spirit of truth. Who proceeded from the father.

He shall what? Testify of me. I will send him

where? To you. 16, 7. Nevertheless, I tell you

the truth. It is expedient for you that I go.

For if I go not away, the comforter will not

what? Can you see? Consistency. I will send him

to you. He will come to you. He will be in you.

Amen. So what Jesus is saying, by saying that

I will be in you, I will be in you through the

comforter. Hallelujah. Are we all on the same

place? Are we all on the same place? Good. Because

that's 16, 16. Let's check 16, 16. John 16, 16.

He said, a little while and ye shall not see

me. And again, a little while and when ye shall

see me. because i go to what i go to the father

so that what a little while means temporal temporal

a little while you will see me a little while

you will not what see me temporal temporal 22

now 16 that's 16 20 sorry john 16 20. Verily,

verily, I say unto you, that ye shall weep and

lament, but the world shall rejoice, and ye shall

be sorrowful. But your sorrow shall be turned

into what? But your sorrow shall be turned into

what? Hallelujah. A woman, when she is in travail,

had sorrow, because her hour is come. But as

soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembered

no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born

into what? 22. and ye now therefore have what

but i will see you and your heart shall and your

joy no man what take care it what away from you

hallelujah away from you so that what little

i said what temporal in greek it means micron

or micron m -i -k -r -o -n is from the from the

root words micros or micros m -i -k -r -o -s

little micron from the root word micros m -i

-k -r -o -s same spelling and i told i missed

temporal it means short time small time a short

distance so what jesus was telling them in a

short time you will not see me and in a short

time you will what You will see me. So it's the

same word that is used in Matthew 26. Write these

scriptures. Matthew 26, 39. Matthew 26, 39. Matthew

26, 73. Matthew 26, 73. It's the same word. Have

you written that down? Then now, John 15, 26,

where we read, he said, I will... John 15, 26.

He said, I will send the comforter unto you from

what? From the Father. Hallelujah. Same place

in John 6, 7. He said, I will send the comforter

unto you from the Father. So what Jesus meant

by saying a little while or in a short time,

microns, microns or micron, right? In a short

time, in a short distance, I will go, you will

not see me. And then you will now what? See me

again. What he was talking about, he was talking

about that three days you will not see me. In

three days and three nights, right? In my death,

burial and resurrection, you will not see me.

And yet what? you will see me again we're gonna

quickly just put put a stop to this and then

we we move on write it a little while what he

meant by saying in this temporary time he was

referring to about what the three days and three

nights of the event of the cross the three days

and three nights of the events of the cross He

said, when I go, you will sorrow because physically

you will not be with me. Right? You will sorrow.

That sorrow is not talking about spiritual sorrow.

No, it means you're going to cry. You're going

to miss me. He said, but no, that's not what's

going on. In a short time, you're going to also

what? See me because I'll come to you. He said,

your sorrow will be turned into what? Into joy.

John 20, 17. John 20, 17. Everybody. Jesus said

unto her, taught me not for I am not yet ascended

to my father, but go to my brethren and say unto

them, I ascend unto my father and your, I ascend

unto my father and your father and to my God

and your, and your God. I have not yet ascended.

Let's reverse back again. To John chapter 7.

John 7 · chapter mention

Let's reverse back to John chapter 7. Verse 39.

John 7 · chapter mention

But this spake he of the Spirit, which day that

belief on him shall receive. For the Holy Ghost

was not yet given, because that Jesus was not

yet what? Glorified. 17 now. Where we now? Sorry,

John 7, 39. Because Jesus was not yet what? Glorified.

20, 29 now. Is that 2029? 2017. And Jesus said

unto her, Touch me not. This communication now

is upon his what? Resurrection. He now said,

Touch me not, for I am not ascended unto my Father,

but go to my brethren and say unto them, I ascend

unto my Father, and your, and to my God, and

your, and your God. Now we see glorification,

right? Yes, we see glorification. So verse 19.

Of that same place. Then the same day. At evening.

Being the first day of the week. When the doors

were shut. Where the disciples were assembled.

For fear of the Jews. Came Jesus and stood where?

In the midst. And said unto them what? Peace

be what? Unto you. The same statement he spoke

unto them. Has he been fulfilled? He told them

a little while, I will not be with you. And a

little while, I will be with you. So he wasn't

talking about something far -fetched. What he

was saying is that upon the event of the cross,

I will not be with you. But now after my resurrection,

I will what? I will be with you. Now he met her

and told her, tell my brethren, I am coming.

But I have not yet ascended to my Father, but

I will come to them. Hallelujah. Glory to Jesus.

Are we there? So we now see that Jesus' resurrection

is an important activity. Amen? Yes, so him being

raised from the dead is very vital. It's a very

key fact. Pastor Emma taught us that throughout.

We looked at different belief systems, right?

Jehovah Witness, Mormon, we looked at it. And

some of the things that they are holding on to.

That will help us in apologia. Hallelujah. Amen.

So we now see, he says something that is important.

Ascension. He said, I have not ascended to my

what? To my father. So what we see, right? We

see events, two events. Resurrection and what?

And ascension. Resurrection and ascension are

not two different realities. They are not two

different what? I think we have treated it, sir.

We've treated ascension in detail. It's in the

cell. Yes. So now, John 14, 2. John 14, 2. John

14, 2. In my father's house there are many mansions.

If it were not so, I would have not told you.

I go to prepare a what? I go to what? Prepare

a what? A place for you. 13. 3, sorry. And if

I go and prepare a place for you, I will come

again and receive you unto myself that where

I am, there ye may be what? Also. So what will

give the authority, the right to be where I am

in the father's family, right? Is that I will

go and prepare what? A place. When I go and prepare

a place, right? He said, I will come again. Does

it look same communication with what he was telling

them? That a little while you will not see me

and a little while you will what? You will see

me because I go to the Father. The same thing.

He said, I will go and prepare a place for you

and I will come what? Unto you. And not only

come again unto you. He said, I will receive

you unto what? Glory to Jesus. I will receive

you unto myself. Then where I am, there ye also

may be. What? There ye may be also. We've learned

in our cell right during the teaching of ascension.

That often what we think is ascension is that

in Acts, right? In Acts chapter 1, after he finished,

Acts 1 · chapter mention

he went on to the Mount Olives, right? And then

from there... In fact, that kind of messed us

up more, right? From Sunday school, you know,

the books that we often will use, they will show

us the picture, you know. some two angels are

standing by the left and right i don't know about

your book but as i remember my book you know

they always they print those things from just

for us yes it's from just they always print those

things right yes pastor fred is shaking his head

so you show us angels two on the right and left

and then they'll say this is how jesus went up

to heaven yes amen so Now, let's look at Acts

Acts 2:32

chapter 2, verse 32. Yes, we're on point. Acts

Acts 2:32

chapter 2, verse 32. Thank you, Holy Spirit.

Let's read from verse 31. He, seeing this before,

spake of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, that

his soul was not left where? In hell, neither

his flesh did see corruption. This Jesus had

got raised up. Amen. Can you see? This Jesus

has got what? Raised up whereof we are all what?

Witnesses. Therefore being by the right hand

of God exalted. We've treated right hand, right?

Place of authority. And having received of the

Father the promise of what? He said, having received

from the Father the promise of what? Remember

in John where we read, he said, I will send you

the comforter that will come from the Father.

Amen. And now Peter is teaching here. He said,

have you received? Are we all here? Where are

we? Which verse? Which verse? That's three. And

have you received of the Father the promise of

the Holy Ghost? So now, let's go back to out

of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

Can you see? That the Spirit, he said, these

he speak of the Spirit that shall be given to

them that what? That shall be leaf. Amen? So

now, having received of the Father the promise

of the Holy Ghost, he had what? Everybody see

now. He had what? He had shed forth the Holy

Spirit. Which ye now see and what? And hear.

So when was the Holy Spirit shared? When was

the Holy Spirit shared? Let's come back now.

31. We must get this now because this is where

we are stopping now. 31. He seen this before.

Speak of the resurrection of what? Christ. So

underline the word resurrection of what? Christ.

Now he quoted that place also from Psalms. That

his soul was not left what? In hell. Neither

his flesh did see what? Corruption. We see resurrection,

right? Then now, from there now, 32. This Jesus

has got what? Raised up. Whereof we are all what?

So he was saying something that he also witnessed.

He saw. Because Jesus came unto them. He told

them a little while I will not be with you. And

a little while I what? I will be with you. He's

told them that we are witnesses that he was with

us. We are witnesses that God raised him from

what? From the dead. Then now, 33, everybody.

Therefore, being by the right hand of God exalted,

place of authority because Jesus has already

taught them upon this. Right? He said, and having

received of the Father. He said, therefore, being

by the right hand of God. exalted, right, is

the same event by saying that he has received

of the Father the promise of what? The Holy Ghost.

Are we all here? What did he do with that which

he has received? He shed forth the Holy Ghost,

which ye now see and what? They are now seeing

and hearing of the Holy Ghost. from the tongues

and interpretation of the tongues that just came

upon them during the Pentecost. So what Peter

is saying there is that what you see, that you

guys are saying that they are drunk, right? And

all of them are saying gibberish. And they don't

know what they are saying. He is saying that

what you are now seeing and what you are hearing,

is as a result of the Holy Ghost that has been

what? That has been shed forth. Glory to Jesus.

So what we are saying in essence, the giving

of the Holy Ghost, let me connect it because

it's the next thing we're going to look at. The

giving of the Holy Ghost, in the giving of the

Holy Ghost or in the shedding of the Holy Ghost,

right? What we will see, we will see new experiences

in the believer. One of the new experiences in

the believer, we are going to see tongues and

interpretation of what? Of tongues. Prior to

now, it has never happened. See, I hope you know

they've been holding Pentecost upon Pentecost.

But they've never had a Pentecost where they

now see a group of people, right? Or their own

group of people gathered in one place and suddenly

speaking, you know, With utterances that every

one of them will gather and say, these guys must

be mad. They must be drunk. This is the first

Pentecost in all their Pentecost that they are

seeing such an event happening. And Peter will

tell them that this event you now hear and what?

And see is an event of the Holy Ghost. So in

the believer, right? We will see an event of

the Holy Ghost called tongues and what? Interpretation

of tongues. Glory to Jesus. Mark 16, 15. So upon

Jesus' resurrection and ascension, what we see

is that what? The Holy Ghost has been shed. The

Holy Ghost has been given. Mark 16, 15. Oh, sorry.

Mark 16, 15, okay? And he said unto them, do

what? Go ye into the world and what? And preach

the what? The gospel to every creature. 16. He

that believeth and is what? Shall be saved. But

he that believeth not shall be what? Shall be

damned. 17, everybody now. You remember in John,

you remember he said that the works that I do,

if you believe in me, you will also what? you

will also do, and greater works than these you

will also what? You will also do. So, now 17.

And these signs shall follow them that what?

That believe. In my name, they shall do these

works. Now, let's begin to underline it. One

of the works they shall do, they shall what?

First work they shall do is that they will preach

the gospel. Amen? He said, go here into the world

and what? So, the first work we see they will

do here. that is the work of jesus is that they

will preach the gospel two second what we can

see that they will do here is that they will

cast out devils did jesus also cast out devil

yes so they will cast out devils they shall speak

with what with new tongues So in greater works,

one of the new things that is happening with

the believer upon receiving the Holy Ghost as

a consequence of salvation is that the believer

will speak with what? With new tongues. 18. They

shall take up what? Serpents. And if they drink

any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them. They

shall lay hands on the sick and the sick shall

what? Shall recover. Peter will say upon his

resurrection, this Jesus you now see is seated

at the right hand of God. Hallelujah. He is seated

at the place of what? Authority. Which is that

he has received the promise of what? Take us

to Acts chapter 2 verse 33 so that we can see

Acts 2:33

what I'm saying. Because there's something I

want to say now. Therefore being by the what?

Let's read it together. Therefore being by the

right hand of God, what? Exalted, which is also

he has received from the Father the promise of

what? The Spirit. What did he do with it? He

has shed forth what? These which you now what?

Let me say this now before I say the next thing.

Is that the man that has the indwelling of the

Spirit, the actions of the Spirit of God in the

believer. are actions that will be seen and heard

hallelujah when our brother was leading us in

the prayers this morning he said that we are

going to have what utterances we are going to

have supernatural experiences so we will hear

and we will what we will see He said he has shed

for this. What Peter was saying there is that

these men that you have seen or you have seen,

they have received the promise of the Holy Ghost.

And what he meant also by saying is that now

these people are also at the right hand of God.

What? Exalted. Jesus is in the place of authority.

They are also in the place of what? Authority.

Because Jesus received the promise of the Holy

Ghost, right? And he has shed it forth. They

have also received that what? That promise. I

am in the Father, the Father in me, and I am

in you. So how are we in the Father and the Father

in us? We are in the Father and the Father in

us through what? Through the Holy Ghost. So I

can preach. Or I will preach the gospel because

the Father is in what? Is in me through the Holy

Ghost. I will cast out devils, right? Because

the Father is in me through the what? The Holy

Ghost. How did I get the Holy Ghost? I got the

Holy Ghost, what? At salvation. When I believed.

I will lay hands on the sick. You remember what

we read in John chapter 3? He said that it's

John 3 · chapter mention

not his parents that sinned, right? But this

has happened that the works of God may be made

what? Manifest where? In him. And we say that

one of the works that we are seeing of God made

manifest is the work of what? Healing. So Jesus

will also tell us that in my name, when you lay

hands on the sick, the sick will what? Will be

healed. But you see, that healing is happening

by the ability of what? The Holy Ghost. Sorry.

With you now what? See and Praise God. So now,

what are we saying in essence? Write this now.

Having come across all this from Ezekiel to now,

what we are saying in essence is that the believer

is one with Jesus. Hallelujah. What we are saying

is that the believer is in union with Jesus.

What we are saying, the believer is what? Is

one with Jesus. Is in union with Jesus. Is in

relationship with who? With Jesus. How? Through

the indwelling of the Holy Ghost. Because what

we see is that Jesus received the promise from

the Father and he has shed it forth. He said,

go into the world and preach the gospel that

whosoever believes is saved and whosoever does

not believe is damned. Right? Yes, so that I

believe in Jesus. And where all we read in John,

you keep hearing, believe on me. Believe on the

works. Believe on the one that has sent me. Oh,

Philip, why is it that you still ask that you

want to see the Father? He that has seen me has

seen what? Has seen the Father. Because the works

that I do testify of what? Of the Father. So

there are works that I see in the believer that

will testify of who? The father. One of the works

that we will see in the believer that will testify

of the father is the preaching of the gospel.

Then let me summarize it now by saying miracles,

signs and what? And wonders. Then we now see

what we are going to talk about. The giftings

of what? Of the Holy Ghost. Because when we see

all these operations, we know that what? They

testify of the Father in the believer. Say, I

have the Spirit of God. I have the Spirit of

God. And He's indwelling in me. And I do greater

works because I believe in Jesus Christ. I'm

in union with Jesus. I'm in union with Jesus.

I am one with Him. Glory to Jesus. Can we pray

in the Holy Ghost, everybody? 2 verse 38 gifts

of the spirit and i said something before i said

we should write gifts of the spirit i said salvation

right the man that has come into christ at salvation

right salvation is the believers starting out

or is the believers wow the english now how will

i put it because it's not in my note i'm just

saying it now from my heart is this english correct

is the okay is the starting out of a believer's

life okay i'm getting english now thank you okay

starting point okay glory to jesus okay so salvation

is the starting point of a believer's life or

journey in christ jesus i'll write that because

now that life will be a life aided by the spirit

of god you know what i just said Because that

life will be a life what? Aided by what? By the

Spirit of God. Remember we came from somewhere

where Jesus said, the works that I do, the man

that believe with me will also what? Will also

do the works. So when you are saved, you are

not saved to just remain where you are. You are

saved to do the works of Christ. So salvation,

is the starting point of a believer's life to

do the works of Jesus and greater works. And

these works are the works that will be performed

by the Holy Ghost in the believer. Do we understand

the connection? Yes. So, Acts chapter 2, verse

Acts 2:38

38. Then Peter said unto them, Repent and be

baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus

Christ, for the remission of what? Can you see?

That the preaching of the gospel, what the preaching

of the gospel offers to the unbeliever is the

gift of what? Of the Holy Ghost. So what we are

saying in essence, that when the gospel is preached

and a man believes on the gospel and he saves

what he receives, right? As a gift. To satisfy

and validate that he is saved is what? The Holy

Ghost. You see, Peter would have said, then Peter

said unto them, Repent and be baptized every

one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the

remission of your sins. And ye shall receive

mansions and money and cars and wives and families.

And there will be this abundance elevation that

will come to you. Let me say this so that we

can laugh. Ye shall receive your keys. And then

the Jews will go, yay! If you're online, you're

hearing me. What you receive as a gift in salvation

is what? The Holy Ghost. Do we not need another

thing? You don't need anything. What you receive

is the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is the one

that will produce the works of Jesus in you and

greater works in you. So now, what is the word

gift? What is the word what? Gift. Say, I have

the gift of the Holy Ghost. Say, I have the gift

of the Holy Ghost. Say, I have the gift of the

Holy Ghost. And because that I have the gift

of the Holy Ghost, I do works of Jesus and greater

works. So what is the word gifts? The word gifts

in Greek, it means Doron. D -O -R -O -N. Doron.

D -O -R -O -N. Which means to be offered freely.

Don't worry, we're just introducing this. In

the next two, three minutes, I will stop here.

We'll pray for two minutes and then we have the

worship team help us. The word gives is what?

Doron. Doron is D -O -R -O -N. Are we being blessed

so far? Is there clarity so far? Why we took

this time on that? Because of the things that

are going to happen in the few sessions we have

ahead. Amen? Hallelujah? Yes. Is there anybody

that has not been blessed so that we give your

transport money back? Okay, everybody is blessed.

Okay, we keep our money. Yes. Amen. So the word

gives is what? Doron, which implies to be offered

freely. To be offered what? Freely. It describes

The quality of the gifts rather than the act

of the giver. It describes the what? The quality

of the gifts rather than the act of what? Of

the giver. So you see why God will give good

gifts. Hallelujah. And what he will give the

believer is his life. Amen. It describes the

what? The quality of the gifts. Rather than the

act of what? The act of the giver. So, from that

same place, just like we had, when you check

your dictionary, by now when I say dictionary,

I don't mean your Merriam -Webster. Right? Or

advanced learners. They are learning but in an

advanced way. Okay. when you check that particular

context right you realize that the word of in

between gifts and the holy ghost the word of

right that word is absent there which we have

already established here when we see that uh

what it means we say it was added by translators

for interpretation purposes so we can toss reads

acts chapter 2 verse 38 this way give us our

Acts 2:38

place let's read it everybody let's read the

place we said the word off it's not there right

so let's read the place everybody want to go

then peter said unto them let's read it want

to go wait wait wait i can only hear pastor chidi

and aida can we read it all together Many are

tired. Few are hungry. Can we say it again? Damn

Peter. Let's say it like we mean it. Baptize

every in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission

of sins and ye shall receive the gifts the Holy

Ghost. Hallelujah. Ye shall receive the gifts

the what? The Holy Ghost. The word receive there.

The word receive. Oh, thank you, Spirit of God.

The word receive is from the Greek word lambano.

L -A -M -B -N -O. Lambano. L -A -M -B -A -N -O.

Lambano. It implies. To take hold of. To take

hold of. It's a very strong word. To take hold

of. You know, when you take hold of, you don't

let go. Hallelujah. So what he's saying is that

what? The what? The Holy Ghost. Nobody ever take

hold of something mindlessly. Imagine woman of

God. You know, I just come like this and just

put my hands. That reminds me woman of God. You

know, I like making these instances because our

minds can relate to it. You know? And I say,

ah, woman of God. You know, I just have one small

gift for you and it's outside. You say, really?

I say, yes. You are trying to know, what is this

person that wants to bring? And then suddenly

now, I just brought out a key. And then on the

key, you see R. You know it's Range Rover. You

know? And then on this thing now, it's autobiography.

2026. July. 15. You know, I say, ah, one of God.

It's just a small, it's a small gift that I'm

giving you. When this kind of gift comes, are

you going to just do? Okay, sir. Give me, sir.

Is that how you're going to take all of it? I

know one of God will first say, sir, wait, wait,

wait. Let me call pastor. I love the way the

woman of God. She said, I will collect it. I

will take all of it. Because I know the quality

of the gifts. I may come here and present the

gifts to her with just a shirt, polo, and slippers.

I may not even brush my teeth. I may just even

be unserious. The act of the giver is not what

matters. It's the quality of what? Of the gifts.

She will take hold of it. The believer ought

to know that he has received the Holy Ghost.

And that is what we are discussing. Because we

need to know the gifts that we have received.

There is no works and greater works without the

understanding of the gifts you have received.

Do you hear what I just said now? Yes, we just

have a few seconds. There is no works and greater

works for the believer without the understanding

of the gifts he has what? He has received. So

when we say you should pray in tongues, and there

is this fervency that is coming from your inside,

that fervency is not coming because The prayer

point says, you shall not die next week. You

know, often there are prayer points when they

are set, they just change the air. No. That prayer

point or that fervency is coming because you

have an understanding of the quality, the gifts

that you have what? You have received. Can we

pray in the Holy Ghost, everybody? We appreciate

you being here today. We hope you carry this

word with you throughout your week. Until next

time, stay blessed.
