about deception one of the purpose of the gifts

of greater works unclean spirits we have authority
-
over them hallelujah praise god hallelujah so
-
now i know on sunday there are some scriptures
-
that i gave us amen but before we go to the scriptures
-
part of the thing like i said on sunday as i
-
teach i'm also taught praise god because as i
-
leave and go you know I don't just stop here
-
I don't know whether you always stop here but
-
as I leave my mind goes to meditation more and
-
more and more and more praise God and one of
-
the things that I've gotten through the process
-
of meditation about discerning of spirits is
-
this part that I added on my note which we are
-
going to add to it before we come to those scriptures
-
hallelujah and then the first topic there is
-
that spirits needs bodily vessels to operate
-
on the earth I know the Holy Spirit has a reason
-
why this is coming, like this, before we read
-
those scriptures. Spirits need what? Bodily vessels
-
to operate where? On the earth, hallelujah. Even
-
the Spirit of God, you know we listed what spirit
-
can be discerned, right? The Holy Spirit can
-
be discerned, the Spirit of God, number one.
-
Human spirit can be discerned, amen? supernatural
-
beings as angels can be discerned amen and then
-
what unclean spirits or demons or evil spirits
-
hallelujah so where are the spirit of God the
-
Holy Spirit unclean spirits right they need what
-
bodily what vessels to do what to operate on
-
the earth Praise God. Hallelujah. So spirits
-
are not licensed spirits to operate on the earth
-
without a body. Amen. Good. So we have that topic.
-
Spirit needs bodily vessels to operate where?
-
On the earth. In fact the way I put it, I say
-
even the spirit of God needs our body to function
-
where? On the earth. Hallelujah. Amen. Yes. So
-
now. On that subtopic that we have there, spirit
-
needs bodily vessels, right? 1 Corinthians chapter
-
3 verse 16. 1 Corinthians chapter 3 verse 16.
-
We're going to run through it very fast. We just
-
want to establish that actually spirit needs
-
what? Needs body vessels to operate where? On
-
the earth. Amen? 1 Corinthians chapter 3 verse
-
16. He said, do you not know that you are what?
-
You are what? You are the temple of God. Let's
-
read it this way that I am Say this way and I
-
know that I Am the temple of God and the spirit
-
of God dwells in me Hallelujah, so the spirit
-
of God dwells where dwells in us How do we know
-
we are coming to it? Amen, but now there's a
-
reality that we know by scripture that for believers
-
the spirit of God dwells where Dwells in us because
-
we are his temple Praise God. So God does not
-
dwell in trees He does not dwell in in the dogs
-
around your area. Amen God dwells where he dwells
-
in the believer the man that is saved Hallelujah
-
has God in dwelling way in him. Praise God you
-
say and I know you know I didn't want to put
-
it as a question now as a reality and I know
-
that I am the temple of God and the spirit of
-
God that's what dwell in me hallelujah first
-
Corinthians 6 19 first Corinthians 6 19 will
-
be going a little bit faster so that we can establish
-
that oh do you not know that your body what and
-
I know that my body is what and I know that my
-
what body. The body there is not another kind
-
of abstract. It means this what? This body is
-
the temple of the Holy Spirit. Who is where?
-
Who is in me? Whom I have from who? From God
-
and I am not what? My own. Say I have been possessed
-
by the Spirit of God. Hallelujah. So you are
-
under a possession. Praise God. You are not under
-
oppression. You are under what? Possession by
-
the spirit of who? Spirit of God. Where did you
-
get the spirit from? From God. You say I have
-
the spirit from God. Hallelujah. Where did he
-
give me the spirit as salvation? Amen. When I
-
got saved, God gave me his what? His spirit.
-
So the man that has the spirit of God has the
-
life of God. The man that has the spirit of God
-
has the nature of God. Praise God. So directly
-
what we are saying is that God is living on this
-
earth through me. Amen. God will feel through
-
me. God will open blind eyes through who? It
-
is not custom that he's opening blind eyes. Jesus
-
is the one doing it. How is he doing it? He is
-
doing it because he lives in the inside of me.
-
Amen. Then now, next verse now. Romans chapter
-
8 verse 9 to 11. So you see spirit, right? So
-
the scriptures we are reading now is the spirit
-
of God living in where? Living in us. Praise
-
God. Romans chapter 8 verse 9. I will jump to
-
11. But you are not in the what? In the flesh.
-
But in the what? But in the spirit. If indeed
-
the spirit of God dwells where? Dwells in you.
-
Now if anyone does not have the spirit of Christ,
-
he is not what? he is not his so the spirit of
-
God dwells in the believer the man that does
-
not have the spirit of God right is not of God
-
because we're going to come to it amen to see
-
why we are saying that praise God then verse
-
11 now he said but in the spirit of him who raised
-
Jesus from the dead dwells where dwells in us
-
he who raised Christ from the dead will also
-
give your life will also give life to your mortal
-
bodies through through the same field that links
-
where? In us. So spirit needs what? Needs body.
-
Spirit of God. God himself who is spirit needs
-
our body to be able to exact influence where?
-
On the earth. Hallelujah. Praise God. Second
-
Corinthians chapter 6 verse 16. 2nd Corinthians
-
chapter 6 verse 16. And what agreement has the
-
temple of God with what? With idols. For you
-
are the temple of who? The living God. See now,
-
as God has said, I will dwell where? In them.
-
I will what? I will walk among them. I will be
-
their God and they shall be my what? My people.
-
Hallelujah. So how do we know that I am of God?
-
I am of God because His Spirit dwells where?
-
In me. And let's add these scriptures now. We
-
may not read them. Let's add them. 1 John chapter
-
4 verse 13. Extra scriptures. 1 John chapter
-
4 verse 13. 1 John chapter 3 verse 24. 1 John
-
chapter 4 verse 13. 1 John chapter 3 verse 24.
-
2 Timothy chapter 1 verse 14. Second Timothy
-
chapter 1 verse 14. Don't forget we are taught
-
our topic is designing of what? Spirit is the
-
gift of designing of what? Spirit. So we are
-
saying that spirit needs what? Body to function
-
way on the earth Amen Hallelujah, and then we
-
started from the beginning about what designing
-
is Amen And I'll do one of the things that we
-
say the designing of spirit is not is not the
-
gift of discernment Hallelujah However, let me
-
put a balance from Sunday. However, you can come
-
into a place and be able to design that place.
-
What we are saying in essence is that you can
-
be able to judge that place. You can be able
-
to be conscious about that environment to know
-
the influence that is happening or that is taking
-
place in that place. Amen. But there is nothing
-
called gift of discernment, but the believer
-
can discern. Do we know the balance now? Do we
-
know the balance? There is nothing called the
-
gift of what? Discernment. But the believer can
-
what? Can discern. He can judge. That's what
-
we are saying. The believer can recognize. That's
-
what we are saying. The believer can be able
-
to know what is evil and what is what and what
-
is good. How? Now we have the spirit of God dwelling
-
in him. Amen. Good. So. And you have to see that
-
now. So now if the spirit of God is dwelling
-
in the believer because the spirit of God needs
-
the body of the believer to function on the earth.
-
Now write this topic. The out walkings of the
-
spirit of God in the believer. The out walkings.
-
The out walkings of the spirit of God in the
-
believer. So the spirit of God does not dwell
-
in the believer and be abstract. So there is
-
a way we will know. that you have the Spirit
-
of God where? Living in you. Praise God. There's
-
a way we will know. Galatians chapter 5 verse
-
22 to 23. Galatians chapter 5 verse 22 to 23.
-
He said but the fruit of the Spirit is what?
-
It's love, joy, peace, longsuffering. Can we
-
go to the previous verses? Go from verse 18.
-
Let's see. Good if you are let what by the spirit
-
of God you are not what? Under the law continue
-
now Now the walks of the flesh are evident which
-
are adultery for occasion uncleanness lewdness.
-
Yes adultery sorcery hatred contentions. Jealousy
-
is our boss next Envies murder drunkenness next
-
we are coming to but the fruit of the spirit
-
is what? So now the man that has the spirit of
-
God living in him will be led by that same spirit
-
amen so you can't have the holy spirit in you
-
right and the holy spirit is just a dummy spirit
-
inside you let me say it this way now every body
-
every vessel a spirit possesses that spirit wants
-
to exert influence through that body do you understand
-
what i'm saying every vessel bodily vessels that
-
a spirit possesses right that spirit wants what
-
exact influence through that what through that
-
body to be seen so now if you are led of the
-
spirit of god which shows that the spirit of
-
god dwells in you right so one of the things
-
or some of the things that we're gonna see made
-
manifest as a result of this spirit that is inside
-
you is that we're gonna see what a walkings of
-
love if there is hatred then question mark we're
-
gonna see joy amen If there is no joy, question
-
mark. We're gonna see what's peace. What's the
-
opposite of peace? International relations, war.
-
Okay. Crisis, chaos, okay. You don't have to
-
go there directly now, because where there is
-
no peace, even. So if there is no peace, if we
-
see war, then there is what? it's a question
-
mark this man you always move around the only
-
thing we know about you is troubles you are right
-
into a place your first signature is a first
-
you will scatter place first question mark if
-
we have long suffering long suffering opposite
-
of long suffering is what eh impatience So we
-
see impatience, right? So if there is impatience
-
then we put what? We put question mark. Because
-
you see, that man that is led of the Spirit of
-
God, we should not see chaos in his life. we
-
should not see that this man is about always
-
he is impatient about everything he is impatient
-
impatient instant cgpa instant money instant
-
desire everything should be happening what instant
-
instant instant instant when it comes that's
-
even in the natural when it comes to the things
-
of god you are instant miracle instant exegesis
-
everything should happen back back back back
-
back back question mark Because if you are led
-
of the Spirit of God, we're going to see kindness.
-
We're going to see goodness. We're going to see
-
what? Faithfulness. Next one now, next one. We're
-
going to see what? Gentleness. We're going to
-
see self -control against such. There's no what?
-
But you see, all these things will be seen on
-
the outside because such a man is led by what?
-
The Spirit of God. Because the Spirit of God
-
dwells where? In the believer, in the man. Amen?
-
Okay now. Philippians chapter 2 verse 13 You
-
know we say we receive this spirit from God right
-
and God says that I will dwell where I will dwell
-
in them I will walk in them. I will be in them,
-
right? Hallelujah. Good. So now let's see Philippians
-
now chapter 2 verse 13 You say for it is God
-
who what? Walketh where? Is it outside you? Where
-
is he walking? Where is he working? In us, both
-
to will and to do what? So when you do a good
-
pleasure, is it abstract or visible? It's visible!
-
When you love, when you work in patience, when
-
you work in long -suffering, when you work in
-
gentleness, in meekness, in kindness, is it abstract?
-
No! We are going to see it! So you see God will
-
not be dwelling in us and not be walking in us.
-
Hallelujah. Praise God. So as he's dwelling in
-
us, he's also what? Walking in us. What is the
-
walk? So that we can do his what? Good pleasure.
-
So when people see your life, they know that
-
truly God does what? Dwell in you. Amen? Good.
-
So now, 1 Corinthians chapter 12, verse 4 to
-
7. verse 4 to 7 First Corinthians chapter 12
1 Corinthians 12 chapter mention
-
Are we there? So now we say the spirit of God
-
dwells in the believer, right? So now these are
-
also some of the things that we see the spirit
-
of God produces out of the believers life. Hallelujah
-
We say there are diversities of what of gifts,
-
but the same what? Spirit. From verse 1. What
-
verse 1 now? What verse 1? Verse 1, we said that
-
what? Now concerning what? The things of the
-
Spirit. Hallelujah. Brethren, I do not want you
-
to be what? Ignorant. Hallelujah. So the Spirit
-
of God does not dwell in the believer and leave
-
his things outside. So he is in the believer
-
with all his things. Praise God. So if the Spirit
-
of God wants to exert influence through word
-
of knowledge, we will experience that blessing
-
of word of knowledge How? Through the believer.
-
Praise God. Amen. So we want to see the prophetic
-
How will the Spirit of God bring direction in
-
the prophetic way through what? Through the believer.
-
Is that clear? So we see the Spirit of God needs
-
a temple, a body, right? To exert his influence
-
where? On the earth. Praise God hallelujah you
-
can write Ezekiel 36 verse 27 Ezekiel 36 verse
-
27 I think we need to read this please Ezekiel
-
he said I will put my spirit where within you
-
and cause you to what to you know when you read
-
it is almost like God is forcing you to walk
-
in his status he said I will put my spirit were
-
in you within you and cause you to work what
-
in my status so the influence of my spirit in
-
you is that we're going to see your obedience
-
to my law praise god he said my status and you
-
will keep my judgments and what and do them so
-
the man that the spirit of god possesses is the
-
man that will daily find himself working with
-
the status of god why because the spirit of god
-
dwells within that man glory to god hallelujah
-
so now having said all these things the spirit
-
of god possessing body and then the spirit of
-
god now we see his workings through the person
-
that he possesses amen through the believer now
-
unclean spirits unclean spirits evil spirit demons
-
possessing human vessels they also need body
-
hallelujah yes unclean spirit also need what
-
the same way the spirit of God needs a body right
-
unclean spirit also what they need a body hallelujah
-
praise God unclean spirit evil spirit possessing
-
human vessels that's how I put it here There's
-
a reason why we are where I believe we are coming
-
this way right because we're talking about designing
-
of what? Spirits and we also talked about the
-
kind of spirit that can be discerned, right?
-
So now we are seeing the spirits and then they
-
are out walkings. Amen So which means that we're
-
coming somewhere now because when it comes to
-
the issue of designing of the spirits now, right?
-
Because some certain times let me know move ahead
-
of myself right that we may not know the spirit
-
that is exacting influence, but we will see his
-
what? His works. Amen. We may not be able to
-
hear or know that the spirit is there, but we
-
will hear him through his speaking and his works.
-
Is that clear? Good. So now, Mark chapter 1 verse
-
23 to 26. Mark chapter 1 verse 23 to 26. Now
-
there was a man in their synagogue with what?
-
So where do you think this unclean spirit will
-
be living? The scripture says this man in the
-
synagogue with an unclean spirit. Where do you
-
think the unclean spirit will be? Following him,
-
behind him? He will be inside him. He came into
-
the synagogue with what? With the unclean spirit.
-
The unclean spirit was possessing the man's body.
-
And then he said and he did what and he cried
-
out next verse saying let us what? Is it the
-
man that is crying or the unclean spirit that
-
are crying? The unclean spirit are crying what?
-
Because they have possessed what? Let me add
-
this now Every spirit that possesses you will
-
want to use every member in your body to exert
-
influence Let me repeat myself every spirit that
-
possesses you will take advantage of all your
-
members to exert what? influence on the earth
-
So For example in mark chapter 16 where we always
Mark 16 chapter mention
-
read right you say and this sign shall do what?
-
Shall follow them right that belief in my name.
-
They will do what? They will do what they will
-
cast out what? Demons. All these people need
-
to do because they have the spirit of God is
-
that when they see a demon they use their tongue,
-
right? And say demon, get out! Remember, the
-
tongue. You see the only house where on the sick
-
and the sick will do what? Will recover, remember.
-
So the spirit of God is walking through the hand
-
of the believer. The same thing that happens
-
with the spirit of God in the believer. So we
-
also see demons taking hold of this man's body
-
you didn't only take hold of the man's body but
-
they can also what they can also speak through
-
the man's body so now they say that what 24 saying
-
let us alone what have we do with you jesus or
-
what nazareth how did they know his name you
-
say what Don't worry, let's talk. How did they
-
know his name? Familiar spirits All I know who
-
are thou Let me say this now Ephesians chapter
Ephesians 1 chapter mention
-
1 in the spirit realm spirits know who Jesus
-
is and They know who the believer is Hallelujah
-
that where we are seated with Christ is what?
-
Far above what? Principality. So, principalities
-
know where Jesus is seated. So when they see
-
Jesus, they know who Jesus is. Praise God. Hallelujah.
-
Let us alone, Jesus of Nazareth. Did you come
-
to what? Oh boy, the believer ought to destroy
-
unclean spirits. We have the authority to do
-
what? To cast them out and destroy them out.
-
because they know what Jesus does to spirit he
-
does not die. Who are you? How did you get into
-
that place? Oh we are his ancestors we have been
-
there 200 years. Okay what again have you done?
-
we caused him to cook yam and beans and then
-
what again we initiated him through his mother's
-
womb and then we got diseases oh ha ha ha ha
-
now you your brethren as you are watching you
-
will see that the spirit will begin to manifest
-
the spirit will begin to manifest so let me spirit
-
and then the spirit is following the spirit is
-
following you know you say lie down the spirit
-
you will now see the spirit is going to walk
-
like serpent now you say walk like serpent you
-
say you see you see If you are in any CF here,
-
ye hold this truth. Never be caught having this
-
fun time with spirits. Because spirits know that
-
when they possess bodies, it's illegal for them
-
because that body belongs to God. And they know
-
that every time they see the power of the Holy
-
Ghost, what the power of the Holy Ghost does
-
to them is do what? Is to destroy them. Now he
-
said I know who you are the holy one of who?
-
The holy one of God next verse now next verse,
-
but Jesus did what? Jesus did what? Saying be
-
what? Quiet and do what? If you are in this place
-
and you are seen with the eyes of the spirit,
-
this is what you should do to spirits not who
-
are you how many years you have been there have
-
you eaten today did you vomit did you sleep your
-
eyes are red no be quiet and do what and come
-
out of him next verse now see and when the unclean
-
spirit at what convulsing is this guys forget
-
this is this guys they convulsing and did what
-
they cried out with the loud voice and what happened
-
to them they came out of him. So every time a
-
spirit is destroyed, what automatically that
-
place is saying is that the spirit loses another
-
body to inhabit. Hallelujah. Now, let's quickly
-
go now. I said to 26, right? Perfect, now look
-
chapter 4 verse 33 to 35. So now automatically
-
we see an unclean spirit in a man and we see
-
his out walkings. Amen, good. So look now look
-
chapter 4 verse 33 now now in the signal in the
-
synagogue there is there was a man who are you
-
what? spirit of art and unclean what unclean
-
demon and he cried out what with a loud voice
-
almost just similar saying let us know what I
-
wish to do it is your answer if you come to so
-
if I know you are the only one of God yes but
-
you just begin saying be quiet and come out of
-
it and when the demon are turning in their midst
-
it came out of him and did not what hurting so
-
prior to now these spirits have been exerting
-
so much influence on this man hallelujah now
-
mark now mark chapter 5 verse 2 to 9 we may not
-
read the remaining ones but mark chapter 9 verse
-
2 to 9 but chapter 5 sorry 5 verse 2 to 9 you
-
see and when he was come out of the sheep Immediately
-
there met him out of the tombs, a man with an
-
unclean spirit. Who had his dwelling among the
-
tombs? Can you see where spirits take people
-
to live? Where is he dwelling? In cemetery, in
-
the grave. Come on, not even under the bridge.
-
took the man out of city took the man out of
-
where people are took him away from the society
-
and that man is now living where in the cemetery
-
right so we see what unclean spirits can do just
-
pay attention to the scriptures as we are moving
-
now what is it they say is it because that had
-
been sorry among the tombs and no man could what
-
bind him no not with chains because that he had
-
been often bound with fetters and chains and
-
the chains had been plucked asunder by who by
-
him and the fetters broken in pieces neither
-
could any man what then him that's the influence
-
of the unclean spirit and always night and day
-
he was in the mountains and in the tombs crying
-
and cutting himself with stones does that look
-
like clean activities imagine we are passing
-
by just this cemetery and you see a man there
-
in one of just beside by the grave one of the
-
graveyard he carries his soul just cutting into
-
blood everywhere and he's crying and shouting
-
and crying and shouting and then you now see
-
yes we are passing you know sir oh ABCF torch
-
what have you got to do with us today I believe
-
nobody among you should wrong. Somebody just
-
say that. Somebody just say, ah my eyes is on
-
the pastors. And then they shout, have you come
-
to destroy us? You these spirits are kind of...
-
These ones, even negotiated with Jesus, say,
-
please, I beg. I beg. There are even pigs there.
-
Just allow us, let's take hold of those pigs.
-
Like, let me say a joke. The pigs too were sensible.
-
They say, you cannot inhabit us. Let's doubt.
-
All of us, let's just die. see now he said but
-
when he saw Jesus afar off he ran and worshipped
-
him and cried with a loud voice and said what
-
have I to do with what with thee Jesus thou son
-
of the most high God I adjure thee by God that
-
thou torment me what but why did he come to worship
-
him He ran and came to Jesus to worship him But
-
now he is now saying that he called his name
-
and then say you should not do what torment me
-
He now say for he said unto him come out of the
-
man thou unclean spirit and he asked him What
-
is thy name? And he asked her saying my name
-
is what? Legion for we are Many and he be sorry
-
much that he will not send them away out of the
-
country. Can you see? He will not send them out
-
of what? the country Now there was there nigh
-
unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding
-
and all the devils what? Besought him saying
-
send us into what? Send us into the swine that
-
we may what? Enter into them and fought with
-
Jesus gave them what? Leaf and the unclean spirits
-
went out of the man entered into the swine and
-
the herd ran violently down a steep place into
-
what the sea there were about two thousand and
-
were choked in what in the sea so two thousand
-
spirits were choked in the sea let me say this
-
now as it's coming to my heart a most favorite
-
place Where spirits can inhabit is a human body
-
Do you what I just said? The most favorable place
-
where spirits can inhabit an exact influence
-
on the earth is what? Is a human body forget
-
this thing that you see, you know, they say they
-
have entered cuts You know, I Always say this
-
thing. I say one of these days I'll trust God
-
to bring my mom to this place So when she sees
-
many cuts Maybe that will really do something
-
to our mind Cats in my place, cats, whether well
-
-trained cats, puffy cats, American cats. Cat
-
is cat and they are evil. You see cat, you kill
-
them. Here, cats will walk up to you, you are
-
eating in a restaurant, they will jump, they
-
are this thing, they are that. No, in my place,
-
they don't jump. They don't. I know what I'm
-
saying. One of these days one of the cars made
-
a mistake. I came and gave back at the back of
-
the window of the room of my mom Yeah, they are
-
room Do you know what that means? Thank you,
-
sir So they had the boldness to leave everywhere
-
to come and give back in her house back of a
-
window. Ah I'm writing oil finish them All the
-
kittens were killed. All of them. Anointing oil,
-
they sprinkle anointing oil everywhere in the
-
house again. Everywhere. You know? They say two
-
-factor authentication, right? You know? Everywhere.
-
Everywhere. You kill, you still spread everywhere.
-
Anoint everywhere. But at least we have an idea
-
that demons can enter into animals. Amen? But
-
animals are not best fit for what their activities
-
on the earth. I know what I'm saying. Now, because
-
we are going to see something here now. Then
-
now, add this now. Luke chapter 8 verse 27. I
-
haven't established that. Luke chapter 8 verse
-
27. Matthew 17 verse 14 to 18. Luke chapter 8
-
verse 27. Luke chapter 8 verse 27. Matthew 17
-
22 verse 3. So one of the major things we are
-
learning from here is that anywhere we discern
-
spirits, unclean spirits, what do we do with
-
them? We cast them out, amen? What do we do with
-
them? We destroy them, we cast them, we rebuke
-
them out, amen? Okay, good. So have we written
-
that? John chapter 13 verse 27. John 13 verse
-
27. John 13 verse 27. Matthew chapter 12 verse
-
43 to 45. Matthew chapter 12 verse 43 to 45.
-
Amen. Then now, the next thing I'll write, the
-
out walkings or the walks of unclean spirits.
-
However, we have seen their works here. Amen.
-
But still writes the works of unclean spirits.
-
So we are learning this so that even when we
-
see them by their works, we can quickly know
-
what's happening there. Amen. The works of unclean
-
spirits. Ephesians chapter two, verse two to
-
three. Ephesians chapter two, verse two to three.
-
See what the scripture say. In which you once
-
walk according to the course of what? Of this
-
world. according to the prince of the power of
-
the air the spirit who what who now walks in
-
the source of what so this spirit that indwells
-
this kind of people one of the things we see
-
is what disobedience three now go to three among
-
whom also we all once conducted what ourselves
-
in the loss of our flesh so we see that this
-
spirit also when they are in dwelling a place
-
what do we see we see a loss of what of the flesh
-
we see fulfillment of the desires of the flesh
-
and of what and of the mind amen somebody say
-
do i have an unclean spirit inside me uh you
-
have the holy spirit inside you hallelujah however
-
we are coming to what is happening praise god
-
And we are by nature the children of wrath just
-
as what? Just as the others. Praise God. So we
-
see unclean spirits. We see disobedience. We
-
see loss of the flesh, right? We see what again?
-
Fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of what?
-
Of the mind. Amen. Now, let's still add more.
-
Galatians 5, 19, 21. Galatians 5, 19, 21. Now
-
the works of the flesh are what? Are what? Are
-
evidence. Which are adultery, fornication, uncleanness,
-
right? Heresies, now the idolatry, sorcery, hatred,
-
contentions, jealousies, outbursts of what? Wrath.
-
Please go back to the previous verse. There's
-
a word there that we need to get out. Next one,
-
okay. Now the works of the flesh are. Now the
-
works of the flesh are, so which means that we
-
can do what? We can see them. Such influence
-
will not be abstract. There are influences that
-
can be what? Can be seen. 21 now. and the likes
-
of which i tell you beforehand just as i also
-
told you in time past that those who practice
-
such things will not what inherit the kingdom
-
of god because these people the spirit that is
-
at work in them is not the spirit of god so the
-
man that does not have the spirit of god inheriting
-
kingdom of god is zero One of our pastors will
-
always say this, you know, he said he I don't
-
know whether he's but he always says and we laugh,
-
you know He said, you know, there's this guy
-
that will say I don't know whether he's true
-
or not But I just he just came to my mind. He
-
said that the guy they always preach the guy
-
the guy they say no No, no, no, you'll not be
-
safe. He wants to continue singing singing singing
-
singing singing So I will make God's very angry
-
So on that day, you know Sunday school has done
-
lots of damage to our minds you know that on
-
that day you know because of the kind of sin
-
he has committed when God wants to throw him
-
into hell as God throws him he will jump hell
-
and enter heaven I don't know whether that is
-
a product of red label or red horse or black
-
label. I don't know. Once you don't have the
-
spirit of God inheriting the kingdom of God is
-
what is not a discussion again. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
-
I will say something, but let's read this next
-
verse. Colossians chapter 3 verse 5 to 6. Colossians
-
chapter 3 verse 5 to 6. Multify therefore your
-
members which are upon the earth. Therefore put
-
to death your members which are on the earth.
-
Fornication, uncleanliness, passion, evil desires,
-
covetousness, which is what? Idolatry. Because
-
of these things the wrath of God is coming what?
-
The sons of who? the songs of disobedience these
-
are not the songs of God these songs don't have
-
the spirit of God see what 1 Timothy chapter
-
4 verse 1 will say 1 Timothy chapter 4 verse
-
1 help us too so we see the out walkings where
-
there are unclean spirits we are going to see
-
these out walkings we are going somewhere designing
-
of who? of spirits now the spirit expressly says
-
that in the latter time some will depart from
-
what from the faith giving heat to what how are
-
the deceiving spirits i love the way he seduces
-
spirits how are they how are they able to talk
-
giving heat to deceiving spirits and doctrines
-
of demons how are the how are the demons giving
-
doctrines through humans How seducing spirits
-
speaking so much so that people will run away
-
from the truth and go and sit there because there
-
are Let me put it this way. I don't want to use
-
the word pastors. There are human beings that
-
Seducing spirit have possessed right and they
-
are recruiting members for Satan Right and such
-
people will love all these things will leave
-
the truth of God's Word and will go and do what?
-
and sit on that take us to the next verse speaking
-
lies in what but you know that these people will
-
sit there they will not know why because seducing
-
speakings are coming when you are seduced your
-
brain is corrupted you are under manipulation
-
they are telling you lies you say no that boy
-
you say see uh sister you see this brother is
-
going to destroy your life he says sir you don't
-
know he's touching my heart So he loves me so
-
much. So you don't understand so you know we
-
will never understand Tomorrow this place was
-
well this place was well this place will increase
-
size Seducing spirits don't speak the truth.
-
What do they speak lies? Having their own words
-
conscience here with what with I on next verse
-
now Forbidding to marry and commanding to abstain
-
from all these are doctrines, O. Teachings from
-
who? From who? From demons. Commanding to abstain
-
from foods which God created to be received with
-
thanksgiving by those who believe and what? And
-
know the truth. Can you see? Next verse now.
-
For every creator of God is good and nothing
-
is what is to be revealed if it is to be received
-
with what? With thanksgiving just stop there.
-
So, one of the out -walkings of unclean spirits
-
is that they can also what? Speak. But when they
-
speak, they don't speak truth of God's word.
-
They speak what? They speak lies. Good. So now,
-
are we all there? So we said that what spirits
-
can be discerned? We said the Holy Spirit, right?
-
The human spirit, right? Supernatural beings
-
as angels, right? Demons or unclean spirits,
-
right? so we have seen the spirit of god possessing
-
body and what he can do through the body right
-
we have seen unclean spirits possessing body
-
and what they can also do through what through
-
the body amen so now let's go back to the scriptures
-
that i gave on sunday now having said all these
-
things now match chapter 8 verse 16 are we all
-
here okay match chapter 8 verse 16 now we are
-
going to repeat a couple of scriptures because
-
we have read some some many of them So these
-
scriptures that we're reading is just to be able
-
to see the differences or where the spirit of
-
God is mentioned, right? Where the spirit of
-
man is mentioned, amen? Where angels are mentioned
-
and then where demons are. We have already read
-
exhaustively where demons are mentioned, amen?
-
I think we have also read exhaustively where
-
the spirit of God is what? Is mentioned, hallelujah.
-
Okay, so since we have done that, then let's
-
2 verse 8 Mark chapter 2 verse 8 so that we take
-
advantage of time okay now from verse 5 now Before
-
giving but there were certain of the scribes
-
sitting there and reasoning way Where were they
-
reasoning in their hearts, right? Seven why don't
-
this man just speak what? Where are they reasoning
-
from? Their heart their mind. Amen who can forgive
-
sins, but God only and Immediately when Jesus
-
did what? Perceives in his words in his spirit
-
that they saw reason way Within themselves He
-
said unto them why reason yet these things were
-
in your hearts So we see Jesus Now discerning
-
and perceiving from his spirit the human spirit
-
the activity that is happening way within the
-
human spirit, talking about who gave him that
-
authority. Amen. So now if he forgives sins,
-
how is that possible? Only God can forgive sins.
-
The human being cannot be forgiven sins. Jesus
-
perceived that. Hallelujah. 1 Corinthians chapter
-
2 verse 11. Jesus perceived that. They were reasoning
-
in their hearts, human spirits. First Corinthians
-
chapter 2 verse 11. For what man knoweth the
-
things of what? Of a man. Save the what? The
-
spirit of man which is where? Which is in him.
-
Hallelujah. Even so the things of God knoweth
-
what? No man but the spirit of what? the spirit
-
of God now we have received not the spirit of
-
the world but the spirit which is of God and
-
that we might know the things that are freely
-
what given to us of who of God so we see the
-
human spirit here we see the the spirit of God
-
here in fact we also see the spirit that the
-
world gives to hallelujah praise God Which things
-
also we speak, not in words, which man's wisdom
-
teaches, but which the Holy Ghost teaches. How
-
does the Holy Ghost teach us? How does the Holy
-
Ghost teach us? We just read the Holy Spirit
-
now. The new man! Hallelujah! So we see that
-
spirits, when they inhabit human bodies, they
-
also what? They speak. Hallelujah! Praise God
-
Hebrews now let's read Hebrews Hebrews chapter
-
12 verse 9 Hebrews chapter 12 verse 9 Hebrews
-
chapter 12 verse 9 first Oh you can add that
-
as an extra reference add that as an extra reference
-
Amen add that what as an extra reference praise
-
God for angels Hebrews chapter 1 verse 7 for
-
angels Hebrews chapter 1 verse 7 for angels 1
-
verse 7 and 14 and Of the angels he said who
-
make it is angels what? Angel spirits hallelujah
-
and his minister as a what a flame of fire 14
-
are they not all ministry what? spirits Send
-
forth to do what? To minister for them who shall
-
be what? Who are hairs of salvation. Hallelujah.
-
Praise God. So we see angels are what? A spirit.
-
We've treated that. We've treated that. Amen?
-
That angels are what? A spirit. Praise God. Now,
-
have you said all these things now? How can spirit
-
be discerned? How can spirit be discerned? Designing
-
of spirit involves seeing and hearing. Designing
-
of spirit involves what? Seeing and hearing.
-
Designing of spirit involves seeing and hearing.
-
Designing of spirit involves seeing and hearing.
-
So we say the gift of discerning of spirit is
-
an ability to see into the spirit realm. It's
-
an ability to see what? Into the spirit realm,
-
the unseen realm with the physical eyes. Hallelujah.
-
So and now if we have to see now into the unseen
-
realm which means not with the what? The natural
-
eyes. So that can happen through granted appearances,
-
such as vision. You know I say discerning of
-
spirits, right, can happen by what? Seeing and
-
what? Hearing. So now, seeing into the unseen
-
realm can happen, one, through granted appearances,
-
such as what? Visions. So we can see spirits
-
via vision. I don't know probably because of
-
this message. One of the dreams I had yesterday
-
that we're casting out demons. Why is some of
-
you laughing? I want to see demons so that I
-
can cast them out more. Why are you people laughing?
-
Yes, I want to identify them where they are.
-
So that body... can be another vessel for the
-
Holy Ghost. Hallelujah. No, I don't want to see
-
them because I want to watch movies, no. I want
-
to see them because we want to rebuke them and
-
let the Holy Ghost inhabit that place. We want
-
to see the havoc and the chaos they are causing
-
through causing so many kinds of infirmities
-
and diseases so that we can bring the healing
-
of Jesus to that place. Hallelujah. You know
-
some of the places that when you go you read
-
more, right? He calls them the spirit of infamities
-
He said the spirit of death and doom He said
-
the spirit of blindness Everywhere those spirits
-
were mentioned that Jesus had to cast them their
-
names were mentioned based on their activities
-
The spirit of fornication the spirit of jealousy
-
the spirit of depression Why they are called
-
like that is because of what? the kind of influence
-
they exert that we see. Hallelujah. So it's easy
-
to get them out. Praise God. You're right, I
-
started on Sunday by saying that, you know, this
-
teaching has taught me, and is still teaching
-
me, and is inspiring my desire more. Because
-
I have never, this is the first time, this is
-
the first time me, I'm receiving this teaching.
-
This is the first time. And it's sharing a desire
-
more. It's changing how I see certain situations.
-
It's encouraging me more. In fact, my desire
-
is more. Now if I go, my antennas are all open.
-
I want to check everywhere. I know what I'm saying.
-
You are the one that think everything that is
-
happening is just natural. It's not like that.
-
Hallelujah. Let me say this this week. Even the
-
things sometimes Panadol can cure, they are not
-
natural. Do you know what I just said? Yes, they
-
have an influence. At least do you know that
-
all the things we have seen, you didn't see that
-
they say that infirmity comes from Jesus, right?
-
Did you see that they say spirit of death and
-
dump came from God? No. So we know their sources.
-
Because in the definition, if you check that
-
definition, we say so that we can recognize their
-
source. Hallelujah! Yes! So now unclean spirits
-
when we see their walkings we know the source.
-
The spirit of God, when we see his walking we
-
also know the what? The source. Designing becomes
-
easy. Hallelujah! Now, having said all these
-
things now, granted appearances through visions,
-
right? Or by hearing through speaking, when they
-
speak. when they speak majorly by hearing when
-
they speak or granted appearances through what?
-
Through visions. So now, when the gift of the
-
spirit, the designing of spirit is in operation
-
through the believer, the believer will see and
-
share things about such spirits. When the gift
-
of the spirit of designing of spirits, right?
-
The gift of designing of spirits is in operation
-
in the believer. The believer will do what? The
-
believer will see and also hear what? He will
-
hear the things concerning that spirit. So write
-
these scriptures now. We just have a few minutes.
-
Write these scriptures. Number one Acts chapter
-
chapter 5 verse 19 talks about Peter's rescue.
-
Amen. When the ministering spirit and angel appeared
-
to him in the prison. Hallelujah. And rescued
-
him supernaturally. Hallelujah. Praise God. Acts
-
chapter 7 verse 55. talks about steven's vision
-
you know when he saw the heaven open and he saw
-
christ seated hallelujah amen what he saw was
-
the spirit realm because the people around him
-
didn't see what he was seeing praise god even
-
at the point of death that he saw into the spirit
-
realm and saw the heavens open right and the
-
people around him could not see so much so that
-
the scripture said they blocked their ears So
-
they don't want to hear what he was saying. Praise
-
God. Acts chapter 7 verse 55 to 57. You will
-
see that there. Acts chapter 9 verse 10 to 12.
-
Acts chapter 9 verse 10 to 12. Ananias' vision
-
about Saul. Amen? Yes. So what happened to Ananias
-
is that Ananias was in his house, Saul was in
-
another location. Amen? but you see what God
-
did was that God had to by vision right grant
-
an anoint to see Paul praise God so he didn't
-
see the body of Paul he saw the spirit of Paul
-
praying and the kind of instruction that Jesus
-
was giving who was giving Paul praise God then
-
16 now is the story of Paul right and it came
-
to pass as we went to prayer a certain damsel
-
possessed with the spirit of divination met us
-
which brought her masters much gain by soot saying
-
can you see that this spirit is not the spirit
-
of God they may already they have told us that
-
is the spirit of what divination and the spirit
-
of divination is giving what soot saying hallelujah
-
then now see what happened now in verse 17 the
-
same followed Paul and us and was crying saying
-
these men are the servants of the most high God
-
spirit of divination and a soothsaying spirit
-
now saying they are what? they are the servants
-
of who? they are the servants of God we show
-
unto us the way of salvation but they are not
-
saved they say these people are showing us the
-
way of salvation but they are not what? But she
-
wasn't saved. Now see, now verse 18. And this
-
did she do, she did many days. But Paul, being
-
grieved, turned and set on to what? On to the
-
spirit. Because Paul designed that this spirit
-
is not the spirit of who? The spirit of God.
-
He said, I command thee, in the name of Jesus
-
Christ, to what? Command of her. Let's take a
-
cue. You see, Jesus did the same thing. and we
-
are seeing the apostles also doing the same to
-
what to demons what are they saying demons do
-
what come out of him so what are we supposed
-
to do when there is a demon what are we supposed
-
to do there's no time yes hallelujah then now
-
write this now lastly now write this now the
-
word of knowledge The word of knowledge and then
-
discerning of spirits. I remember I said something
-
that oftentimes what happens now as a balance
-
between the word of knowledge and discerning
-
of spirits, the word of knowledge, the gift of
-
the spirit, the word of knowledge allows you
-
to know or allow you to know that there is a
-
spirit in this place. Hallelujah. He allow you,
-
you are able to know that an unclean spirit is
-
where? is here. Even if the unclean spirit does
-
not exert any works. Amen? You just go into a
-
place and then suddenly you just know by the
-
spirit that unclean spirits are here. Praise
-
God. So you see what Word of Knowledge does is
-
that Word of Knowledge will give you facts from
-
the mind of God that there is an unclean spirit
-
where? In this environment. But now what the
-
discerning of spirits will do is that the discerning
-
of spirits will also give you the ability to
-
now what? See the spirits. Hallelujah. Or when
-
the spirits speak, you will quickly know that
-
what? These are the spirits that are what? That
-
are taking advantage of this atmosphere. Praise
-
God. Hallelujah. Can we just appreciate God everybody?
-
