right in. In the name of Jesus we pray. Can we
-
just have our seats briefly? You can actually
-
be seated. Be hearing me and still be praying
-
in the Holy Ghost. Hallelujah. Glory to Jesus.
-
Glory to Jesus. You can actually be seated and
-
be hearing the message. And Jesus is bringing
-
the answers that you've been waiting for. You
-
can actually be hearing me. Be taking notes and
-
healing comes. Hallelujah. You can actually be
-
hearing me. And then certain things that have
-
been bothering you for some certain time probably
-
made you to be, you know, not to be able to sleep.
-
That direction will be received. Father, we thank
-
you. Lord, we bless you for we know the spirit
-
of wisdom and revelation is at work in our hearts
-
and in this atmosphere. As Lord, we hear the
-
word. As the teaching of the word is coming by
-
your spirit to us, veils are lifted, deeper experiences,
-
deeper encounters, answers are received. We have
-
a seeing eye. We have a hearing ear. We have
-
a perceiving heart through the teaching of the
-
word in the name of Jesus. Father, our lives
-
are transformed eternally. Father, we bless you.

help us. We need you to help us. We ask that
-
please you help us. Please, Holy Spirit, help
-
us. Father, we thank you. We bless you. For in
-
Jesus' name, we pray. Hallelujah. I don't used
-
to do this, but I will learn it. Amen. I appreciate
-
the lead pastor and then all the pastorate for...
-
I just thought about it and it seemed good to
-
my heart to learn it. Hallelujah. Praise God.
-
Yeah, it just seemed good to my heart to learn
-
it. Often his pastor, if I see him do that, right?
-
Yes, I appreciate the lead pastor and then all
-
the pastors for the opportunity to be able to
-
teach. Hallelujah. Praise God on this subject
-
matter. Amen. Gifts of the Spirit. I trust that
-
the Holy Spirit will be able to speak louder
-
to us, even that the words that you're hearing.
-
Amen. Yes, that he speaks louder. Spirit of wisdom
-
and revelation. At work in our hearts all. Hallelujah.
-
Often I will say that. As I stand. And speak
-
here. I'm also privileged. Because certain things
-
I will say. You know. Or most of the things I
-
will say. Are a huge blessing also. To me. Praise
-
God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Glory to Jesus.
-
What is the indwelling of the spirit? Let's start
-
from there. So today, tomorrow morning and in
-
the afternoon, let me tell us how the journey
-
is going to be. So we're just going to look at
-
the indwelling of the spirit today. Amen. In
-
the little time that we have, praise God. Tomorrow
-
in the morning session by God's grace, we're
-
going to discuss about. what the gifts of the
-
spirit are from first corinthians chapter 12
1 Corinthians 12 chapter mention
-
amen then we have two more sessions amen so the
-
two more sessions we have the first session half
-
of it we are just going to run over all the gifts
-
of the holy ghost we can't exhaust them here
-
he says why are we going to do that we are going
-
to do that because we need to practice more Praise
-
God. Hallelujah. Yes, so what I'm saying in essence
-
is that the half part of the first session, the
-
second one, we're going to pray all through.
-
When we come back after the break, we're going
-
to pray all through. Then minister all through.
-
Minister healing. Word of knowledge. Word of
-
wisdom. The prophetic. Walking of miracles. Gifts
-
of faith. So that half session, we will take
-
it to run over this. Just to know what is gift
-
of faith. What is word of knowledge and its operations.
-
So we're just going to look at a gift and its
-
what? Operation. A gift and its operation. A
-
gift and its operation. Detailed teachings that
-
we're going to do on this will come after the
-
Kadatismos. Glory to Jesus. Glory to Jesus. Yes,
-
so do we understand how we are going to move?
-
Yes, I needed to tell us how we are going to
-
move. Praise God. So that our hearts are prepared.
-
Build up expectation for the things that are
-
going to come ahead. The things of the Spirit,
-
right, are not just received casually. The things
-
of the Spirit are received upon instructions
-
that are given. Silver and gold. we do not have.
-
But that which we have, we what? We give unto
-
thee. Do what? Do what? What are they telling?
-
Instruction. We have something from the supernatural,
-
but you will receive it upon what? Working with
-
the instruction. Blind bat mouse, what do you
-
want me to do for you? Sir, I want to see. He
-
said, oh, I've been here 38 years. I have no
-
one to carry me. Nobody. Come on, nobody. Nobody.
-
So, no relative. No grandfather. No grandmother.
-
No wife. No children. Nobody. I don't know whether
-
that guy was exaggerating or not. So, the big
-
question is, who came and dropped you there?
-
Who dropped you by the poolside? You had nobody.
-
So who was the nobody that brought you and dropped
-
you there that you were on that bed for what?
-
38 years. But Jesus said something. Do what?
-
What was the instruction Jesus gave him? And
-
do what? And carry your... Even when he got the
-
instruction, he was still saying, I have what?
-
Nobody. We have the Holy Ghost. Hallelujah. We
-
have the Holy Ghost. So I'm giving us this direction
-
because this is how we are going to move. So
-
that all of us, you know, it will not be pastors,
-
pastors, pastors. Now it's going to be more and
-
more from us. So what I'm saying in essence is
-
as you are seated, expect the Holy Ghost to give
-
you a name in Zimbabwe of what Jesus is doing
-
regarding that person. As you are seated here,
-
expect Jesus to open your eyes and you will see
-
a situation. in Burundi over someone in Burundi
-
in a particular village that normally your mind
-
will not go there. Expect Jesus to bring that
-
instruction in this meeting through you even
-
as you are seated. Expect Jesus to bring into
-
your heart somebody that you know that has been
-
sick and then you take a phone and call the person
-
and say, lay your hands there. Because we just
-
received a word now that let's pray for every
-
sick person and the person would get healed.
-
You call the person, you pray for the person
-
and the person is up from that bed. That is the
-
atmosphere that we are in today. Hallelujah.
-
That is the atmosphere of greater works. A realm
-
of possibilities powered by faith in the finished
-
works of Jesus. And we are in that reality. Hallelujah.
-
Glory to Jesus. Yes, are we all there? So, we
-
are done with that part now. Ezekiel chapter
-
36 verse 22 to 28. Fast. Ezekiel. Everybody,
-
let's go there. Okay. Ezekiel chapter 36. Ezekiel
Ezekiel 36 chapter mention Ezekiel 36:22–28
-
chapter 36 verse 22 to 28. I read. We know the
-
place. Therefore, say unto the house of what?
-
Say unto the house of where? Of Israel. Thus
-
said the Lord God, I do not this for your sakes.
-
O house of Israel, but for my what? Holy name's
-
sake, which ye have profaned among the hidden
-
without what? Ye. That word profaned, it means
-
that you treated my name in a common way among
-
unbelievers. Hallelujah. You treated it with
-
disdain among unbelievers. And I will what? I
-
will. You have treated my name as common, right?
-
I will do what? Will. So I am the one that will
-
do it. I will sanctify my what? Though you have
-
treated it, you have profaned it, yet I will
-
sanctify my great name, which was profaned among
-
the what? Hidden. Which you have profaned in
-
the what? In the midst of them. So God is speaking
-
through Ezekiel to the house of where? The house
-
of Israel, right? And the hidden shall know that
-
I am the Lord, said the Lord God, when I shall
-
be sanctified in you before their eyes. 24. For
-
I will take from what? Among the hidden. I will
-
take you, sorry, from among the hidden and gather
-
you out of all countries and will bring you into
-
your own land. Does this look like salvation?
-
Does it look like salvation, everybody? Good.
-
And then he said, 25. Now, then I will sprinkle
-
clean water. Hallelujah. I will take you. I will
-
save you from among the hidden. Right? And I
-
will do what? I will now cleanse you. Why will
-
God do that? Previously, the house of Israel
-
among the hidden have not lived in the ways of
-
God. They have disdained, profaned the name of
-
God among the hidden. Amen? So what God will
-
do is that in his saving, in his salvation for
-
the house of Israel, he will clean them. Mind
-
you, Where we started reading, he said, I will
-
sanctify my great name. So what God is saying
-
is that how I will sanctify my great name is
-
that the first thing I will do is that I will
-
do what? I will pick you. I will save you. Glory
-
to Jesus. When I save you, I will do what? I
-
will cleanse you. Then now, let's keep reading
-
now. See what God is doing in how he is sanctifying
-
his great name. He said, and I will bring you
-
into your own what? Into your own land. Pastor
-
Ephraim has taught us about this. Then I will
-
sprinkle clean water upon you and yes, I'll be
-
what? Clean from all your filthiness and from
-
your all idols. From all your idols will I what?
-
So how did they profane the name of God among
-
the hidden? They were living in filthiness and
-
they were living in what? Worshiping and serving
-
what? Idols. So God will remove them. He will
-
save them. He will clean them from all their
-
filthiness and from all the worship of what?
-
Of idols. So far so good. Is it clear what God
-
is doing? Good. 26. Then now, after he has removed
-
them and cleansed them, see what the next thing
-
that God will do now in 26. What will he do?
-
Everybody let's read together. I will do what?
-
I will give you a what? This group of people
-
were living among hidings in filthiness. They
-
disdained the name of God. They didn't walk in
-
his ways. So what God is saying is that I will
-
cleanse you. I will remove you. I will not leave
-
you among them. I will not leave you in darkness.
-
I will move you from the kingdom of darkness
-
and translate you into the kingdom of light.
-
So what I will do is that when I translate you,
-
what is happening? Even though we are going to
-
look at it. Because salvation comes with sanctification
-
at the same time. Even though here. Prophet Ezekiel
-
is giving them the instruction. It looks like
-
when God removes them. Then he will bath them
-
with clean water. After he now bathed them. He
-
will do a surgery. Remove the old heart. And
-
then put a new heart. No. We are going to look
-
at it. Because these are prophetic words. Hallelujah.
-
They are not literal words. They are prophetic
-
what? Words. Denoting what God is doing. Regarding
-
the nation of Israel. So he will bring them.
-
But you see, because they've lived in filthiness
-
for a while, they've lived in worship of idols
-
for a while, they have been cultured in that
-
way. Their mind is already postured in that manner.
-
So what Jesus or what God will do, right? What
-
God will do is that he will have to what? Give
-
them a what? A new heart. And a what? And a new
-
spirit will I put within you. And I will take
-
away the what? The stony heart. If it's your
-
Bible, you can say, that stony heart, the heart
-
of filthiness. The heart of worship of idols.
-
That has caused you to profane my name among
-
the hidden. So I'm going to give you a new heart
-
and I'll put my spirit there. Hallelujah. Then
-
now, see what God is doing. I will take away
-
a stony heart of flesh and I will give you a
-
heart of what? A heart of flesh, 27, everybody.
-
And I will put my what? I will put, whose spirit
-
is he putting there? I will put my spirit within
-
you. And I will take away, sorry, within you
-
and cause you to do what? So a new heart, having
-
a new spirit. Whose spirit? God's spirit. So
-
now they have a new heart and they have God's
-
spirit within them. What do you expect will be
-
happening? What will now be happening is that
-
yea shall keep my what? Sorry, I'll put my spirit
-
within you and cause you to walk in my status
-
and yea shall keep my judgment and what? So do
-
you think that if they will keep God's judgment
-
and walk in his status now that they have his
-
spirit with a new heart? Are they going to find
-
it difficult to do it? Why? Somebody should tell
-
me why. Why? Because they have what? They have
-
the aiding of the Spirit of God. Another thing
-
is that now it would be easier for them to know
-
God's status, right? And also walk in His ways.
-
28 now, we are going to stop there. And ye shall
-
dwell in the land I gave to your fathers and
-
ye shall be my what? My people and I will be
-
your what? You see, so what validated them to
-
be God's people and God being their God is that
-
now they have his what? His spirit. We're getting
-
it. Let me move fast. So which means that the
-
man that has the spirit of God dwelling in him
-
is the man of God and God is his God. Do you
-
understand what I just said now? So the man that
-
has the spirit of God dwelling in him, let me
-
put it this way. In Bible language, that man
-
is the people of God and God is his God. Do we
-
understand? Do we understand everybody? Is it
-
clear? Good. Now, upon saying that now, you will
-
see that what God is saying is that, I will.
-
So when you go to verse, let's start reading
-
from verse 22, everybody. You see, what God will
-
start saying in verse 22, He said, Therefore,
-
say unto the house of Israel, Thus said the Lord,
-
I do not do this for your sakes, O house of Israel,
-
for mine holy namesake, which ye have profaned
-
among the hidden, whither ye went. 23, everybody
-
now. First is that you will see, 23 say, I what?
-
And I will. The next I will, you will see it
-
in what verse? Read your Bible and tell me. 24,
-
I will take you from among the what? The hidden.
-
And then that simply say, and will bring you
-
into your what? into your own land. 25. Then
-
will I, or we can say, then I will sprinkle what?
-
Clean water. Are we all here? From your old filthiness,
-
from your idols, then I will cleanse you. Can
-
you see what the scripture is saying? I will,
-
I will, I will, I will, I will. All through you
-
see, I will. So if we check, I will, I will,
-
I will, it's about seven times. So what's that
-
telling us? That's telling us that God now is
-
giving a personal commitment to this promise
-
to the house of Israel. He's not leaving it for
-
them to do it. He's saying that I am the one
-
that will do what? Do it. So when I come and
-
tell you that, you know, Christy, don't worry,
-
I will. buy you a house in Iskele, I will furnish
-
it. I will buy you a Cadillac. Then I will open
-
you HSBC account. I will. So that there will
-
not be boundaries of Turkey and this thing, you
-
know, international. Do you think Christy in
-
her mind would be thinking she's the one that
-
would do all those things? First she's going
-
to look at herself first. Iskele. We never finished
-
Lefkosha. Stop that joke. But you see. If Christy.
-
Has an understanding of my ability. And who I
-
am. And I'm worth. $35 billion. Do you think
-
when I tell her that kind of statement, she will
-
start doing, ah, sir, ah. What do you think she
-
will do? Ah. She's a wise woman, right? She will
-
say, ah, sir. Hey, how about my friend, Samantha?
-
What do you think, sir? Why? Because she knows
-
that everything that I said is not up to $500
-
,000. So you see, Christy will not be afraid
-
because she knows I am the one that is committed
-
to do what? To do it. I don't need her participation.
-
All I need from her, all, all I need from her,
-
Is what? What do I need from her? For you to
-
believe. I don't need anything from her. Because
-
I'm the one that will do it. Move her from Sierra
-
Leone. Say, no more Sierra Leone. Now, she's
-
sure. See, this is how strong what God is saying
-
here. This is how powerful. I'm trying to get
-
an extreme, extreme strong word. This is how
-
committed God is to that promise he was giving
-
to the house of Israel. Do you know why? Because
-
the spirit of God is involved. He's putting his
-
spirit there. He's putting himself there. I'll
-
just say something now by the Spirit of God.
-
Which means that the man that has the Spirit
-
of God, God is committed to you eternally. Nothing
-
missing, nothing broken, your life can never
-
waste. Never. God is committed. Him is committed
-
to you eternally. I'm moving ahead of myself,
-
however. So we see God saying, I will put my
-
spirit, I will put a new spirit into them. What
-
he's not saying is that I'm bringing what? A
-
newness to them. I will remove them from their
-
filthiness. I will remove them from their idol
-
worship. And I'm bringing them into a newness,
-
into a new life. I will do something among them
-
that they've never experienced before. And when
-
I do it, they will be called my people and I
-
will be called their God. Hallelujah. That's
-
what God is doing. So what can we see from this?
-
Because God is redeeming them from the hidden
-
and he's doing all these things. So what we see,
-
two things we see if you're writing. With salvation
-
comes the giving of the Spirit. With salvation,
-
with redemption comes the what? The giving of
-
the Spirit. Comes with the indwelling of the
-
Spirit. Let me put it that way. With salvation
-
comes the indwelling of the what? The Spirit.
-
Somebody say, how did we come by? Hope everybody
-
we understood what prophet Ezekiel said about
-
the house of Israel, right? They were living,
-
they profaned God's name, living in filthiness,
-
in idol worship among the heathens. God said,
-
I will remove you from them, right? I will cleanse
-
you, give you a new heart, then put my what?
-
My spirit. That's where we got this summary.
-
With redemption, with salvation comes the what?
-
Indwelling of what? of the spirit where did we
-
get this from from this same place so you see
-
we don't need to go to romans epistles to see
-
the salvation of god and then the giving of the
-
holy ghost hallelujah are we all here good perfect
-
so now ezekiel 37 verse 9 everybody let's go
-
there Ezekiel 37, verse 9. Let's read from verse
-
5. Let's see another restoration and then, or
-
salvation or redemption and then the giving of
-
the Spirit. Thus said the Lord God, verse 5.
-
Thus said the Lord God unto these bones, Behold,
-
I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye
-
shall what? Who will do it? I will cause what?
-
Breath. Glory to Jesus. 6. And I will lay sinus
-
upon you and I will bring up flesh upon you and
-
cover you with skin and put breath in you and
-
ye shall live and ye shall know that I am what?
-
I am the Lord. So I prophesied as I was what?
-
Commanded. And as I prophesied, there was a what?
-
A noise and behold a what? A shaking and the
-
bones came what? Together. Bone to his bone.
-
And when I beheld, Lord, the sinus and the flesh
-
came up, what? Just like God said it, right?
-
Came upon them and the skin covered them above.
-
But there was, what? No breath were in them.
-
Verse 9 now, everybody. Then God, now say he
-
unto me, prophesy unto what? Unto the wind. Prophesy,
-
son of man. And say to the wind. Thus said the
-
Lord God. Come from the four winds. All breath.
-
And breath upon this slain. That they may what?
-
That they may live. Ten now. Let's stop there.
-
So I prophesied. I commanded me. And breath came
-
into them. And they lived. And stood up upon
-
their feet. And exceeding what? Great what? A
-
me. That word breath. That word breath, B -R
-
-E -A -T -H -E, is translated from the Hebrew
-
word nafak. Nafak is N -A -P -H -A -C -H. Nafak.
-
Nafak. N -A -P -H -A -C -H. It's the same word
-
that is also used in Genesis chapter 2 verse
-
7. Genesis chapter 2 verse 7. Same word. Somebody
-
will say. How are you people checking this Hebrew.
-
And this Greek thing that you are saying. From
-
interlinear dictionary. Can you see how smart
-
we are. We did not go to any Greek school. No
-
Greek. Maybe that's the fact that I said. They
-
may slap me. If I'm somewhere in their environment.
-
That's how we got it. So why are we checking
-
the original meaning so that we can understand
-
the context? We will not carry advanced learner's
-
dictionary meaning and put it there. Merriam
-
-Webster's dictionary, no. So when we come to
-
the scriptures, we want to understand it in the
-
original language that it was written. What was
-
the meaning? And what is the context saying?
-
Hallelujah. So if you don't have one, download
-
it on your phone. That is where we are reading
-
it from. Glory to Jesus. Are we all there? Good.
-
So Genesis 2, 7 now. I said it was also the same
-
word I was using. Genesis chapter what? Chapter
-
2, verse 7. And the Lord God formed man from
-
the dust of the ground and did what? And breathed
-
nafak into his what? Nostrils, the breath of
-
life. And the man became a what? A living soul.
-
We see a breathing of life. In the valley of
-
the bones, we see a breathing of what? Of life.
-
And suddenly now, we see them what? Living. Oh,
-
let me say this now. I just dropped it in my
-
head. The man that does not have the spirit of
-
God is not alive. Do you know what I just said?
-
The man that does not have the spirit of God
-
is not what? It's not alive. I don't mean that
-
he's dead walking literally. You go out now and
-
then you see these people in the cafe. Or you
-
move around. Or you go and see your lecturer
-
and say you're a dead man. You will be dead for
-
the next 10 years in the school. Or you go and
-
meet your boss and say you're a dead star. You're
-
gone. No, I don't mean it that way, literally.
-
Why we are alive as believers is because we have
-
the spirit of who? The spirit of God. So with
-
redemption, you will see a breathing of life.
-
So what God did or what God prophesied through
-
Ezekiel for the house of Israel, right, is that
-
I am going to breathe my spirit into you. I'm
-
going to put my spirit where? In you. So with
-
redemption, with salvation, what we are going
-
to be seeing consistently, we're going to go
-
through scriptures. You're going to see God put
-
his what? His spirit. That's what we are seeing.
-
Glory to Jesus. Are we all here? 1 Corinthians
1 Corinthians 6 chapter mention
-
chapter 6, everybody. Let's see 1 Corinthians.
-
So once we see deliverance, once we see salvation
-
of God, and then we see The redemption of God.
-
What we are going to see. As God is redeeming.
-
Right. He is redeeming to himself. Glory to Jesus.
-
And how God redeems to himself. Is that he puts
-
his spirit there. He puts his spirit there. 1
1 Corinthians 6 chapter mention
-
Corinthians chapter 6. Verse 19 to 20. 1 Corinthians
1 Corinthians 16 chapter mention
-
chapter 16. Chapter 6. Verse 19 to 20. What?
-
Know ye not that your body is what? Is the temple
-
of what? Of the Holy Ghost. Which is where? In
-
you. Which ye have of who? So the Holy Ghost,
-
you receive the Holy Ghost from who? From God.
-
And the Holy Ghost is where? Is in you. And you
-
are not your own. Next verse. How is it that
-
you have not become your own? He said, for you
-
have been bought by a what? You have been redeemed
-
with a price. Your body is the temple of the
-
Holy Ghost that dwells in you that you have received
-
from God. How did you receive it? Because you
-
were bought with a what? With a price. Which
-
price? Jesus' death, burial and what? Resurrection.
-
So the blood was shed. You were bought with a
-
price. And the evidence of that price is the
-
giving of the Holy Ghost. Hallelujah. That's
-
the evidence of what God did. Now he now says
-
that what? From this knowledge and from this
-
reality of what God has done for you, therefore
-
you should do what? Glorify God in your body
-
and in your spirit, which are what? Which are
-
God's. You know, you know we, God just looks
-
at the inward appearance. He does not look at
-
the outward appearance. Okay. We. God is spirit.
-
We. Right? Are spirit. We have a soul. We live
-
where? In the body. So which means that we will
-
discern your inward appearance and we will also
-
see your outward appearance. It's as simple as
-
that. Why did I say this statement? I said that
-
statement because of this. He said, therefore
-
glorify God where? In your body. Some verses
-
will now say, glorify God with your members.
-
And in your what? Spirit. Which are what? Which
-
are God's. So you see, with redemption, we now
-
see the giving of what? Of the spirit. 1 Corinthians
-
3 .16. 1 Corinthians 3 .16. Just go with me gradually.
-
It's greater works. I've already given us the
-
curriculum, how we are moving, right? 1 Corinthians
-
3 .16. Are we all there? Dwelleth where? In you.
-
Hallelujah. Can we see another evidence again?
-
Perfect. Acts chapter 20 verse 28. So with purchasing,
-
with buying, you know, what we are seeing, that
-
word to purchase or what we see the scripture
-
will say, God has bought us. Right? It's a language
-
of redemption. Hallelujah. It's a language of
-
what? Of redemption. So what God did is that
-
he will give the blood of Jesus to redeem us
-
back to where? To himself. So he wasn't doing
-
it like a commodity. You go and buy Beko television.
-
No. That's not what God did. Amen? We are coming
-
to it. Take heed therefore unto yourselves and
-
to all the flock over... The which the Holy Ghost
-
had made you overseers to feed the church of
-
God. Which he did what? Purchase with his what?
-
With his own blood. Because he purchased the
-
church with his own blood. That is where his
-
spirit is. Glory to Jesus. Are we all here? Perfect.
-
Good. So, 1 Peter chapter 1. You can add this
1 Peter 1 chapter mention
-
1 Peter chapter 1 verse 18 to 19. 1 Peter 1,
-
verse 18 to 19. Romans 8, verse 9. So all the
-
scriptures we are reading, when you go through
-
them, you will see that these scriptures are
-
consistent with the promise of the prophets regarding
-
what God will do through his son, Jesus Christ.
-
Hallelujah. Very consistent. Very consistent.
-
Then now, let's go to John. John chapter 4, everybody.
John 4 chapter mention
-
John chapter 4, verse 10 to 14. Say, I have the
-
Spirit of God. Say, I have the Spirit of God.
-
I have the Spirit of God. I can't hear us. I
-
have the Spirit of God. And He dwells in me.
-
And He dwells in me. He quickens me to do greater
-
works. He quickens me to do supernatural things.
-
Glory to Jesus. 10 verse to 14 now. John chapter
John 4 chapter mention
-
4. See, Jesus answered and said unto her, If
-
thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that
-
said to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldst
-
have asked of him, and he would have given thee
-
what? Living water. Before I move, can everybody
-
now explain Ezekiel, where we read Ezekiel 36?
-
Can you go out of this place and explain Ezekiel
-
36 to somebody? Can we all explain it? How God
-
put his spirit? Can we do that? And then we take
-
a lesson of redemption and the indwelling of
-
the spirit? Can we do it? Can you do it? Can
-
you do it, man of God? Okay, good. So now, let's
-
now come to John. John chapter 4. We know this
John 4 chapter mention
-
story, so let's read carefully. Like this woman,
-
she's quoting everything. He said, I will give
-
you living water. So she's asking, you don't
-
have anything to draw. Where are you going to
-
get the what? The living? Water. She is very
-
literal with him. She is not putting no meaning.
-
No nothing. Amen. Then now she said. Are thou
-
greater than our father Jacob. Which gave us
-
the well. And drank thereof himself. Ancient
-
well. It's an ancient well then. And his children.
-
And his cattle. And probably they must have been.
-
Priding themselves in that well. Right. Then
-
now. Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever
-
drinketh of this water from the well of your
-
forefathers, Jacob, that you are feeling, you
-
know, you are trying to exaggerate and talk about
-
it, feeding of his cattle. Whosoever shall drink
-
of this water shall do what? Shall thirst again.
-
But whosoever drinketh of the water I shall what?
-
That I shall give him shall never what? But the
-
water that I shall give him shall be in him a
-
well of water springing up into what? Everlasting
-
life. So what can we see here? Pastor Fred told
-
us. Pastor Victor told us. We see Jesus used
-
earthly things to communicate what? Heavenly
-
realities. So what Jesus? Jesus is taking the
-
use of water. right to communicate what a heavenly
-
reality to the woman and that is why no wonder
-
the woman will say please so you don't have anything
-
to draw what even from this well so how can you
-
draw living water and then give us to what to
-
drink. In fact, Jesus now made it more complicated
-
for her. He said, this water you are drinking,
-
you will drink and come back in five minutes.
-
But there is one I will give you. When you drink
-
it, you will not thirst again. In fact, your
-
reality will not stop at not being thirst again,
-
but from within you. If I'm there, I'll be wondering,
-
so, please, so, can you tell me what kind of
-
water is that? Or maybe I'll say, see, you're
-
confusing me the more. So we see Jesus will take
-
use of the water to teach what? To teach about
-
a heavenly reality. What is he teaching about?
-
He's teaching about newness. Where we are coming
-
from, from Ezekiel. He's teaching about what?
-
Redemption. He's teaching about salvation. He's
-
teaching about what will happen. What will happen
-
in the man that will take part of this water.
-
That's what Jesus was telling her. You see, he
-
said, Whosoever shall drink it from what? From
-
this shall never what? Tast again. Then he now
-
said, Whosoever that has taken of this living
-
water, from him shall be a springing of this
-
living water unto what? Everlasting. Can you
-
take note? Can you see what Jesus will say now?
-
He said that this water, is it going to be poured
-
on him or he will bath with it? Where is it going
-
to happen? The water. Let's read from here. In
-
fact, let's read from everybody. But whosoever
-
want to go. Who shall do the giving of the water?
-
Who will give the water? Good. Yes. Shall never
-
what? Continue about there. But the water that
-
I shall give him, he shall use it to brush his
-
teeth. He shall use it to bath. The water will
-
be where? Where are we going to find the water?
-
In him. And shall be a what? A well of water
-
springing up into what? So a water within you
-
now becoming a well and springing up to what?
-
Everlasting life. So question is, will Jesus
-
be speaking about literal water? No, reason with
-
me. Don't be mindless. Reason with me. I now
-
meet you and say, Pastor TK, you know yesterday
-
I just branched somewhere and I got this water
-
in bottle. You know, if you just take one shot,
-
you know, that one shot can stabilize you and
-
not only stabilize you. Anytime you want stability,
-
just do like this. Because that water will form,
-
that one shot will form a well of shots inside
-
you. What do you think Pastor Tiki will be thinking
-
I'm doing? You know? Jesus would have not been
-
speaking literally that he will give you water.
-
The water will now be a well of water inside
-
you. And then now he's connecting the well of
-
water to everlasting life. Or to everlasting.
-
It will not make sense. It will not add up. I
-
drink water, it becomes a well. And that well
-
now is on to what? Everlasting. He must be communicating
-
something. And now Jesus will say, it shall be
-
in him. You know where we're coming from, from
-
Ezekiel. He said, I will put my spirit and where
-
will my spirit be? My spirit will be in them.
-
So the indwelling of the spirit is always where?
-
In the believer. Take note of that because that
-
will connect us to something that is coming ahead.
-
The indwelling of the spirit of God is always
-
where? In the believer. In the believer. So what
-
Jesus was symbolizing from that place is that,
-
you see what we read? He said, I am the one that
-
will give you the water. Right? So question is,
-
where will Jesus come from heaven? Or where will
-
Jesus come? Is he buckets of water as he has?
-
He will not be speaking about water. Glory to
-
Jesus. So what Jesus was speaking about, Jesus
-
was speaking about what? Spirit. He was speaking
-
about the Holy Ghost. He says, how do we know
-
that Jesus is speaking about what? The Holy Ghost.
-
We are coming to it now. But before we go to
-
that now, go to John chapter 3, verse 3 to 8.
-
Everybody, let's be fast so that we see the use
-
of water, water, water, water, water, water,
-
water. Jesus was not literally speaking about
-
literal water. I was talking about what? The
-
spirit. Question is, how did you know it's the
-
spirit? We're looking at scriptures now. Everybody
-
follow the scriptures. John 3, verse 3 to 8.
-
Are we all there? Are we all there? Let's start
-
reading from verse 1 to give us context. There
-
was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a
-
ruler of the Jews. The same came to Jesus by
-
night and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that
-
thou art a teacher come from God, for no man
-
can do these miracles that thou doest except
-
God be with him. Three. Jesus answered and said
-
unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except
-
a man be born again, he cannot, what? See the
-
kingdom of God. For Nicodemus said unto him,
-
How can a man be, what? Born again? You see,
-
every time Jesus speaks, they take his words,
-
what? Literal. Then now, when he is old, you
-
see, Jesus is talking about born again. Him,
-
he's talking about, what? entering the womb,
-
and then what? Be born again. Be given birth
-
to. He said, how can you be born again when he
-
is old? Can he enter the second time into his
-
mother's womb and be born? Jesus said, verily,
-
verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born
-
of... Let's read it now, this class. Except a
-
man be born of water and of... The spirit, he
-
cannot enter where? Into the kingdom of God.
-
That which is born of the flesh is flesh. And
-
that which is born of the spirit is what? Is
-
spirit. Where we are coming from in John chapter
John 4 chapter mention
-
4, he talks about, I will give you water. And
-
when I give you that water, that water will spring
-
up to everlasting life. And then now we are seeing
-
him now in another event. He's relating water
-
to give him back. Hallelujah. Glory to Jesus.
-
Do we understand? So now, have you read that
-
now carefully, everybody? Right? When we now
-
read, let's go back there so that we can just
-
pay attention to that because we're going to
-
build on that. It's going to help us in the coming.
-
Things that we're going to do. Verse 4, everybody.
-
Let's read verse 4. Nicodemus said unto him,
-
carefully everybody, read your Bible. How can
-
a man be what? Born when he is old. Can he enter
-
the second time into his mother's womb and be
-
born? 5. Jesus answered, verily, verily, I say
-
unto thee, except a man be born of Water and
-
of the Spirit. So do you think Jesus is talking
-
about you will be born twice? There will be a
-
first. You will go and be born of water. Then
-
you'll be a Mami Water child. Right? You know,
-
in our place, Mami Water, people that live around
-
the Riverine area, they say when they give birth,
-
they will carry the child and go and then either
-
they throw him inside the water or they point
-
him to water. I don't know. Whatever. Right?
-
Yes. Woman of God is smiling about this thing.
-
You know, the people from my area are close to
-
that experience. Is he saying that you will first
-
be born of water? Think about how possible it
-
is. I want you to engage your mind. Everybody,
-
don't be mindless here. Think about how first
-
they will born you with water, right? Then after
-
they born you with water, then they will now
-
born you with what? With spirit. Then you have
-
now entered into the kingdom of God. You know,
-
we still have some certain photos that will go
-
to Salamis area to confirm. Yeah, public confirmation,
-
you know, of how, but we are not following scripture
-
because we are doing spirit before water. You
-
know, so I don't think we have entered into the
-
kingdom. Damn, okay. Right? So, we will go, you
-
know, Me at that time, I even say, I think if
-
they don't immerse me, when the trumpet sounds,
-
because the one in our area, they will carry
-
a cup of water and say, they will just sprinkle
-
on you when you are a child. They will just pour
-
the thing. Say, no, it's not complete. We want
-
to experience the one that they will put us inside.
-
When they put you inside and then you jack up,
-
then a bird will just come and descend on your
-
shoulder. They now took me to Yarem Down and
-
then they dipped me inside the swimming pool.
-
When I came out, nothing happened. We can dip
-
you in River Jordan. Right? I don't know whether
-
that's the, based on that's the, Victor can tell
-
us. I don't know which of the rivers there again
-
is sacred. We can dip you in River Jordan. Close
-
to where John the Baptist was. And bring you
-
out. If you don't believe in the death, burial
-
and resurrection of Jesus. You don't have his
-
spirit. So Jesus was communicating a reality
-
here. Amen. He was communicating a reality. So
-
now. Back to what we are doing. So we see now
-
there's an article that Jesus will now point
-
to. Everybody, let's go there carefully because
-
we're doing Bible study now. Then Jesus said,
-
verily, verily, I say unto you, except a man
-
be born of what? Except a man be born of water
-
and of the, and of the. So every time we see
-
the spirit, what does it connot? When we see
-
the spirit. How about when we see a spirit? What
-
does it tell us? When we see a spirit, it means
-
what? There are other spirits. How about when
-
we see the spirit? What does it mean? It's specific.
-
It now tells us the article definitely for the
-
word spirit. But you see when he was talking
-
about water, he didn't say the water. Amen? We
-
are coming there. He didn't say what? The water.
-
He said of water and of the spirit. So when he
-
will say that, he is now making an emphasis not
-
on water, but he is making an emphasis on where?
-
On the spirit. So the question will not be, why
-
is there water there? Why is there water? If
-
you have KJV, good. Give us that KJV. I don't
-
know whether this has it. So, if you check the
-
original rendition, if you have your Septuagint
-
Bible, check it. If you check the original rendition,
-
you realize that in the original rendition, the
-
word of is not there. Amen? This word of, where
-
is it? Except a man be born of water and of.
-
That word of, when you check the original context,
-
that word is not there. It says, except a man
-
be born of water and the Spirit. Hallelujah.
-
Check it. You can verify it is there with you.
-
That word of is not there in the original rendition.
-
Glory to Jesus. How did he come there? You have
-
learned a lot in this church. A lot. So when
-
we see such words added to scriptures, I will
-
not say the answer. What does it mean? It was
-
added by translators. God bless you. Ah, my pockets
-
are empty. You know? Yes, so it was added by
-
what? By translators. In the original context,
-
that word is not there. So now, that means that
-
Jesus was not talking about two different things
-
he wasn't talking about two different things
-
are we all here he wasn't talking about what
-
two different things please don't lose your mind
-
in this discussion and get your brain acts i
-
don't want you to to just take and get your brain
-
read into the lines and everything we are doing
-
the believer must be very intellectual when it
-
comes to the scriptures Pastor Emma said something.
-
He said, we must ask questions. Some other doctrines,
-
some other religion, they will say, don't ask
-
questions. But you see, when it comes to this,
-
our own faith, we must ask what? We must be very
-
intellectual. So I will not come and say, except
-
a man be born of water and of the spirit. You
-
see, that spirit there is talking about a dimension.
-
Can you see the dimension? Because, This water
-
talks about a portal. Because for you to enter
-
into the kingdom, there has to be a portal. And
-
that portal is through the water. And that is
-
why even satanic forces have used water to be
-
their portal. And you know, and somebody will
-
say, I've never had this. Ha, it's too deep.
-
Let me say like the way my pastor would say,
-
moo, moo. They've used your brain. Be very intellectual.
-
So when they are leading it, lead it. If he's
-
not there, just tap your nail, but that pastor,
-
that thing is not there. So, and of what? So
-
which means that Jesus is not talking about what?
-
Two different things. He's not talking about
-
water and also talking about what? Spirit. Mind
-
you, we came from John chapter 4. We said Jesus
John 4 chapter mention
-
is using earthly things to communicate what?
-
Heavenly things. So he can't be talking about
-
spirit and then at the same time he's talking
-
about what? Water. If he's talking about water,
-
something physical, and then he's talking about
-
spirit, something heavenly. The next question
-
that should come to your mind is that he cannot
-
be talking about two different things at the
-
same time. Are we all here? Are we all here?
-
Good. So now. That word and here. Except a man
-
be born of water and. Already we say of the spirit.
-
When you check the original of is not there.
-
Amen. So but when you check and. When you read.
-
We have learned it in this church. When you see
-
and with the Kairul, right? That word and, when
-
you check your Septuagint dictionary, you realize
-
that it can be used, right? As what and what?
-
I will not say it. As a conjunction and for explanation,
-
for emphasis. Amen? So, but we see, what Jesus
-
was now using here, he cannot be using water,
-
earthly, right? And then he will now say, conjunct
-
with spirit. It will not make sense. Because
-
Jesus will not be communicating that. So what
-
Jesus is communicating is a heavenly reality.
-
So what he will now do to give emphasis, he will
-
now say, except a man be born of water, which
-
is the spirit. So he's saying that Nicodemus,
-
I'm using water at least so that your mind can
-
understand. But what I am talking about is what?
-
The spirit. Are we all clear on this? Anybody
-
is confused? Can you explain it? If somebody
-
meets you on the road now, you can explain this
-
place. Okay, good. So now. So now, let's read
-
it now. He not say that now. He say, except a
-
man is born of water. Now, we'll read it after
-
saying this now. Except a man is born of water,
-
which is the what? The spirit. He cannot what?
-
Enter into what? The kingdom of God. Remember
-
in Ezekiel, we said that God will put his spirit
-
in them, right? And he said, they will be my
-
people and I will be their what? They are God.
-
So which means that the man that must enter into
-
the kingdom, the man that must experience the
-
kingdom must have what? Access to the kingdom.
-
How? Spirit. So what Jesus was communicating
-
about being born again there is talking about
-
an experience with the spirit. Glory to Jesus.
-
Glory to Jesus. Glory to Jesus. Are we all there?
-
Good. Somebody will now say, how, how, how? See
-
verse 12 now. John 3, 12. He has talked about
-
water. He has talked about, he tries, he says,
-
Nicodemus, okay, let me use water, something
-
you can relate with to talk about spirit. And
-
then the kingdom, right? See verse 12 now. Having
-
all the discussion, verse 12 now, he says something.
-
Let's read verse 11 so that we'll get the context.
-
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, we speak that
-
which we know, and testify that which we have
-
seen, and ye receive not our what? Our witness.
-
Twelve. If I have told you of what? Can you see?
-
What earthly things did Jesus use there? Water.
-
Thank you, ma 'am. If I have told you earthly
-
things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe
-
if I tell you of what? Heavenly things. So we
-
see Jesus will use earthly things to speak about
-
what? Heavenly things. So Jesus was not endorsing.
-
Let me say, let me ask us. Was Jesus talking
-
about baptism here of water? Is this scripture?
-
Please, you are intellectual Bible scholars.
-
Is this place, is this place from where we read
-
verse 1 when Nicodemus asked him a question?
-
Was it about water baptism? Did Nicodemus come
-
and say, Master, you are a good man. You do miracles.
-
Only you are from God. However, I have a question.
-
This idea on water baptism, can you give us your
-
own standpoint? Is that what happened in that
-
context? No. So Jesus was not, because lots of
-
people that also use water baptism use this scripture.
-
So they will immerse you to fulfill all righteousness
-
that connects your salvation. Then they will
-
now connect it to a heaven's revelation that
-
somebody saw. How they went, they had a divine
-
revelation to hell and they saw some people that
-
didn't make it to heaven because of water baptism.
-
What now happens? Everybody will be deep inside
-
water. They will dip them inside water and they
-
are not saved. I told man of God. They carried
-
us. We went and then dipped some people inside
-
ocean. We saw them online. They were just palasparizing.
-
You know? In Nassau, there's something called
-
palaspa. Palaspa is maximum enjoyment. Like maximum
-
flex. After baptism, we baptized them. They did
-
some prayer. We sang some hymn. I played guitar.
-
Man of God is there. They did everything. Weekdays
-
like this, they were online. May the Lord give
-
you understanding. You know? He'll give you understanding.
-
So now, big question is, what are the heavenly
-
things that Jesus was talking about? See verse
-
14, everybody. You see, we have now left John
John 3 chapter mention
-
chapter 3. So we've talked about born of the
-
Spirit, right? He was not talking about water.
-
He was talking about the what? The Spirit. Is
-
that clear? Good. Then now we now say, he said
-
that if I speak to you of earthly things and
-
you don't believe, how about if I speak to you
-
of heavenly things? Will you also what? Believe?
-
So question is, what are the heavenly things?
-
Verse 14, everybody. And as Moses, 13, let's
-
read 13. And no man had ascended up to heaven,
-
but he that came down from what? Heaven. He was
-
speaking about himself now. Even the son of man
-
who is in what? Heaven. 12. And as Moses lifted
-
up the serpent in the what? Wilderness. Even
-
so must the son of man be what? He is talking
-
about heavenly things now. At this point, Nicodemus
-
is out. 15. That whosoever believeth in him shall
-
not perish but have what? Does this look like
-
where we read in John chapter 4? What I will
John 4 chapter mention
-
give him will be an everlasting life. Does it
-
look like it? Does it look like it? Okay, good.
-
So now, 16 now. We'll just stop at 16. For God
-
so loved the world that he gave his only begotten
-
son that whosoever believed in him should not
-
perish but have what? Can you see? So he said,
-
if I speak to you about earthly things you don't
-
understand, you don't believe, how is it that
-
if I speak about heavenly things? He said, okay,
-
let me tell you a little about the heavenly things.
-
The same way that Moses would lift up serpents
-
in the wilderness and the children of Israelites
-
would look at it and be saved. right so also
-
the son of man must be what lifted up so jesus
-
is already communicating about a heavenly reality
-
glory to jesus glory to jesus and he said that
-
now upon the lifting up of the son of man whosoever
-
believed what in him will not perish but have
-
what everlasting life question now will be is
-
jesus talking about literally, the way they put
-
serpents, then they will just carry him up as
-
he's speaking now. They will just carry him up
-
and just lift him up and he will stand up on
-
the three. And then suddenly now when you look
-
at it, you say, oh Jesus! And then you have eternal
-
life. Is that what is happening? Mind you, Jesus
-
speaking earthly, right? They take it literal,
-
but he's speaking about heavenly what? Realities.
-
So when he's saying, If the son of man is lifted
-
up, do you think he's talking about the way Moses,
-
let me use the word, put the serpents there on
-
the tree and people just look and then they are
-
saved. Is that what is going to happen? Do you
-
know if we take literally for us to be saved,
-
do you know the body of Jesus needs to be mummified?
-
Do you know it needs to be mummified? So now
-
what will happen is every president in the world
-
will go and lobby with the president of Israel
-
now. He say, My country, we are 200 and something
-
million. Please, for the next 10 years, it's
-
our turn. Because all of us, we need to go and
-
look. When we now look, we are what? We are safe.
-
Do you think that is what is going to be happening
-
literally? No. So question will be, so what will
-
Jesus be communicating by saying such statements?
-
That's the question you should be asking. Amen?
-
Glory to Jesus. So now, what is the heavenly
-
things that jesus is referring to what is the
-
heavenly thing that jesus is referring to you
-
can write it somewhere let me just move ahead
-
so what jesus is referring to about the heavenly
-
things here is his dead burial and resurrection
-
his dead burial and resurrection he says how
-
he said He said, as Moses lifted up serpent in
-
the what? In the wilderness, so the son of man
-
be what? Lifted up. That word lifted up that
-
Jesus spoke about, he was talking about what?
-
His death, burial and what? And resurrection.
-
He said, so how do you know? Because when you
-
read that place now carefully, he said now, whosoever
-
believeth in what? In him. So you see, what will
-
bring eternal life? Let me just do something
-
logical for us so that we can get what I'm saying.
-
He said, if the son of man be what? Lifted up.
-
And then and yet, he now say, if you believe.
-
Question will be, will Jesus just be lifted up
-
and then I believe and I'm saved, I have eternal
-
life? Do you understand what I'm saying? No,
-
it cannot be that. So what Jesus is saying is
-
that I will die, I will be buried, I will be
-
raised from the dead. If you believe in that,
-
then you have what? Eternal life. We are coming
-
to that. Hold that because we are discussing
-
greater works. All that we are going to do from
-
tomorrow is precedent upon this reality. Glory
-
to Jesus. Hallelujah. So now, question now will
-
be, There's a place that says, for God so loved
-
the world that he gave. Big question will be,
-
when was Jesus giving for the world? When was
-
Jesus what? Giving for the world. Because Jesus
-
is speaking about heavenly things. And he said,
-
I'll be what? Lifted up. When I'm lifted up,
-
then you believe you have what? Eternal life.
-
16 now says, for God so loved what? The world.
-
He talks about Moses lifted up serpent. I will
-
be lifted up. Then next 16 just say, for God
-
what? Soul of the world. And he gave. So when
-
was Jesus giving for the world? Are we all there?
-
Jesus, you can write that. Jesus was giving for
-
the world. At his death, burial and resurrection.
-
He was given for the world at his death, burial
-
and resurrection. And I told us that that word
-
lifted up from the earth. Lifted up means his
-
what? His death, burial and resurrection. Let's
-
look at John chapter 12 verse 32. We see another.
-
mention of that word, fast. I just have some
-
seconds and then I would like us to just pray
-
for the five minutes left to prepare us much
-
more for tomorrow. John chapter 5, sorry, John
John 5 chapter mention John 12:32
-
chapter 12, verse 32. 12, verse 32. Am I too
-
fast? Are we moving on the same pace? Is it clear?
-
If you meet somebody today, Outside this place.
-
Can you explain these things to him? Glory to
-
Jesus. Good. So John chapter 12 verse 32. See
-
what the scripture says. And if I be lifted up
-
from what? From the earth. I will do what? So
-
I will draw all men unto what? Unto me. So he
-
will not be speaking about him just being carried
-
into the air. He is talking about a heavenly
-
reality. His death burial and what? And his resurrection.
-
Glory to Jesus. John chapter 7 verse 37 to 39.
-
John chapter 7 verse 37 to 39. Let's read the
-
scripture and then we close for today here. John
-
chapter 7 verse 37. Are we all there? In the
-
last day. That great day of the feast, Jesus
-
stood and cried saying, If any man thirsts, let
-
him come unto me and what? Does this look like
-
John chapter 4? The water I will give you. When
John 4 chapter mention
-
you drink, you will not thirst again. See Jesus
-
making an invitation again. If any man thirsts,
-
let him come unto me and what? Drink. 38. He
-
that believeth on what? On me. As the scripture
-
has said, out of his belly shall flow what? Rivers
-
of what? Living water. But this speck here of
-
the spirit, can you see again? Can you see water
-
and spirit? Right? But this speck here of the
-
spirit, which they that believe on him shall
-
what? Receive. Who are the people that will receive
-
the spirit? Who are the people that will receive
-
the spirit? They that but? Believe on him for
-
the Holy Ghost was not yet what? Given because
-
that Jesus was not yet glorified. Hallelujah.
-
Glory to Jesus. Glory to Jesus. So write this
-
word belly. Write this word belly. That's where
-
we are going to hold it from tomorrow morning.
-
You see, we are gradually coming to a place.
-
If you are paying attention, we are moving somewhere.
-
Right? So write the word what? Belly. That will
-
say, out of his what? Belly shall flow what?
-
Rivers of living water. You see, where we read
-
in John chapter 4, he said, I will give him living
John 4 chapter mention
-
water. Glory to Jesus. So we can see water, spirit.
-
Water, spirit. Water, which is the what? The
-
Spirit. Can we rise to our feet everybody? We
-
appreciate you being here today. We hope you
-
carry this word with you throughout your week.
