  1. Good. So from where we stopped today, I just

  2. wanted to make some things clear, just to add

  3. more to clarification before we take on. From

  4. the last place that we stopped on Sunday, we

  5. had a topic that says all believers have all

  6. the gifts of the Spirit and should manifest and

  7. do what? Demonstrate. Hallelujah. And why should

  8. they manifest? Why should they demonstrate? So

  9. that they will do what they will profit of. Hallelujah.

  10. Yes, so let's read 1 Corinthians chapter 12.

    1 Corinthians 12 chapter mention

  11. 1 Corinthians chapter 12. Verse 1. 1 Corinthians

    1 Corinthians 12 chapter mention 1 Corinthians 12:1

  12. chapter 12, verse 1. We'll start reading from

  13. verse 1 to 11. He said, now concerning spiritual

  14. gifts, brethren, I will not have you ignorant.

  15. Ye know that ye were Gentiles carried away unto

  16. these dumb idols, as even as ye were led. Wherefore,

  17. I give you to understand that no man speaking

  18. by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus a curse, and

  19. that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but

  20. by what? By the Holy Ghost. This is salvation

  21. now. Now there are diversities of gifts, but

  22. the same Spirit. There are differences of administration,

  23. but the same Lord. And there are diversities

  24. of operations, but it is the same God who would

  25. work it all in all. But the manifestation, that's

  26. verse 7 now. You know, on Sunday, we established

  27. that verse 7. That word manifestation is what?

  28. Can somebody help me? The word manifestation

  29. is what? You can type it. Or you can switch on

  30. your mic. Let's hear you. That word manifestation

  31. is what? To reveal clearly. In Greek what? That

  32. word manifestation is what? And it means what?

  33. Phanerosis. Yes, phanerosis. Phanerosis. It means

  34. what? What does it mean? To reveal. Hallelujah.

  35. To make bare. Nothing to hide. Plainly visible.

  36. Because that word phanerosis was obtained from

  37. the word phanero. And the word phanero to make

  38. visible what has been hidden. Whether by words

  39. or deeds. Amen. In any other way. The word Phanerosis

  40. was gotten from the word Phaneru, which means

  41. what? To make visible. When we say you are making

  42. something visible, which means that what you

  43. want to do is that you want a thing to meet the

  44. eyes. You want the eyes to see it. You want the

  45. five senses to be able to perceive it. You want

  46. the five senses to be able to interact with that

  47. which you are making visible. So now verse seven,

  48. he says, but the plain revealing of the spirit,

  49. or we can say, or the visible, can you see? Or,

  50. but that which has been hidden, Has been revealed.

  51. Of the spirit. And is given to every man to do

  52. what? To profit all. And when you get your BLB.

  53. If you have your BLB. Because we are doing a

  54. study. When you go to your BLB. Everybody go

  55. to your BLB. If you have it. You realize that.

  56. You know the translators. did a good job to be

  57. able to write 1 Corinthians 7 for us, chapter

  58. 12, verse 11, right? But now, they shifted some

  59. things because in the original context, right?

  60. Because on Sunday, I said something that I need

  61. to bring attention to it, right? And what is

  62. it? He said, dividing to what? To every man severally

  63. at what? As he will. And I told us that that

  64. word he will is not the spirit or rather the

  65. receiver, the man. Somebody was, you know, probably

  66. maybe asked the question, but how will you say

  67. that? Because my Bible is saying as he will.

  68. English language says it's the spirit that is

  69. willing. If you read it that way, it means that.

  70. The Holy Spirit has a choice to give you or not

  71. to give you. But that is not how that place is.

  72. So when you go to the original rendition, if

  73. you have your BLB, let's read it together. Right?

  74. You will realize in your BLB, it says that dividing

  75. separately to how many men? To every man as he

  76. will. Did you open that place, Victory? Did you

  77. see something like that in your BLB? When you

  78. open your BLB, you see dividing severally to

  79. every man. Not dividing to every man severally

  80. as he will. Dividing severally to every man as

  81. the man will. Yes, thank you, Takunda. So, that

  82. word, that word, he will, it means, it means

  83. based on the desire of the man. So, I make, based

  84. on my desire to prophesy, based on my desire

  85. to give a word of knowledge, based on my desire

  86. to give a word of wisdom, based on my desire,

  87. right? To give a tongue an interpretation of

  88. tongue. Based on my desire. Or based on purpose.

  89. Or based on need. That word. That is as he will.

  90. But you see there is something unique here. It

  91. says dividing severally. You know. When you use

  92. the word. When you use the English word. Severally.

  93. It means what? Somebody should help me. When

  94. you use the English word severally, it means

  95. what? When I say I am giving you money or I am

  96. giving you my property or I am giving you several

  97. properties, what do I mean? Oh, class, you should

  98. help me, my brothers and sisters. When I say

  99. I am giving you properties severally, you can

  100. type it, please. Okay, miracle says different.

  101. Somebody is saying individual. Tapunda says more

  102. than two. English word says more than two. Many,

  103. easy, a lot. If I say I am dividing, let's go

  104. back to 1 Corinthians now. We're going to do

  105. it now. So I want to clear something to us. When

  106. I say verse 11, everybody. When I say I am dividing

  107. to every man severally, as he will. That word

  108. severally, if you are going to use English dictionary,

  109. it means many. But when I use the word, I am

  110. dividing this property, right? To several of

  111. you. I now mean what? To what? To each of you.

  112. But when I say I'm dividing severally, it's different

  113. from I am dividing this property to several of

  114. you. Do we understand? So when you go by the

  115. way of King James Version or New King James Version

  116. or the version you're using, you're going to

  117. get that verse wrongly. Because in the original

  118. context, now when you check your PLB, your PLB

  119. says that dividing severally to every man. That

  120. word severally, when you check the original word,

  121. it means idios or ideals. Ideals means privately.

  122. Ideals means one's own. Ideals means belonging

  123. to oneself. So what that scripture is saying

  124. is that, but all this, that one and the self

  125. -same spirit dividing privately to every man

  126. at the wheel. Hallelujah. Dividing what is the

  127. Holy Ghost to every man. So that which is the

  128. Holy Ghost, what is that which is the Holy Ghost?

  129. The prophecy, prophecy, right? Gift of prophecy

  130. is the Holy Ghost. Amen? What again can we see?

  131. Word of wisdom is the Holy Ghost. Right? Word

  132. of knowledge is the Holy Ghost. Gift of faith

  133. is the Holy Ghost. Gift of healing is the Holy

  134. Ghost. Working of miracles is the Holy Ghost.

  135. Designing of spirits is the Holy Ghost. Diverse

  136. kinds of tongues is the Holy Ghost. interpretation

  137. of songs is what is the holy ghost nine of them

  138. so what the scripture is saying that the holy

  139. ghost is taking what is his own and giving it

  140. to the believer hallelujah so the holy ghost

  141. dwells in the believer so which means that that

  142. which is the holy ghost is the believers also

  143. can you see it do we understand Please, if you're

  144. with me, you should indicate. Do we understand?

  145. That which is the Holy Ghost has now belongs

  146. to who? It's now belonging to you. Praise God.

  147. Gift of prophecy. The Holy Ghost has taken what

  148. is His and divided to the believer and giving

  149. it to the believer. That was severally does not

  150. mean that He's dividing each. No, no, no. He's

  151. saying that that which is the Holy Ghost is given

  152. to every believer. gift of prophecy, word of

  153. knowledge, word of wisdom, the gift of faith,

  154. healing, walking of miracles, tongues, interpretation

  155. of tongues, gift of faith. The Holy Ghost is

  156. taking that which it is and giving to the believer.

  157. So the believer has the gift of prophecy. The

  158. believer has the gift of word of wisdom. Word

  159. of knowledge. That is why when we start reading

  160. from verse 8, he said, for to one is given by

  161. the Spirit, Holy Ghost. Then the word of wisdom

  162. to another, word of knowledge by the same Spirit.

  163. So the Holy Ghost is the one that ensures that

  164. all his gifts are given to the believer. When

  165. you check that word, It means one's own. It's

  166. not your English words. It means belonging to

  167. oneself. It means privately owned. So that which

  168. is privately owned of the Holy Ghost is now with

  169. the believers. Hallelujah. How do I know it's

  170. the believer's own? Because the Holy Ghost dwells

  171. in the believer. Praise God. When we now read

  172. Matthew chapter 9 verse 1. I will just read two

    Matthew 9:1

  173. scriptures for us. And then you can go home.

  174. And then do some personal study on that. Matthew

    Matthew 9:1

  175. chapter 9 verse 1. And he entered into a ship

  176. and passed over. And came to what? To his ideal

  177. city. Hallelujah. He came to his own city. Praise

  178. God. Belonging to his own. Matthew 25, 14. Matthew

  179. 25, 14. See what the scripture says. For the

  180. kingdom of heaven is as a man traveling into

  181. a far country who calls his own servants. Amen.

  182. His own. He calls his ideal servants. And deliver

  183. unto them his goods. Praise God. So the Holy

  184. Ghost dwells in the believer. But the Holy Ghost

  185. has given the believer. Oh, thank you, Holy Ghost.

  186. The Holy Ghost has given the believer all of

  187. the things that he sees. Hallelujah. I have the

  188. prophetic. I have word of wisdom. I have. word

  189. of knowledge. I have the gift of healing. I have

  190. the gift of miracles. I have the gift of tongues.

  191. I have the gift of interpretation of tongues.

  192. I have the gift of prophecy. How did I get it?

  193. The Holy Ghost gave me. Praise God. You see why?

  194. You see why? It's your will. It's now left on

  195. your will. When you read it, he said, he divides

  196. severally to every man as the man wills. Now

  197. you have them. The Holy Ghost is now on your

  198. own terms to operate them. Praise God. So now

  199. you have to act on your will to do what? To operate

  200. them. You have to make up your mind. On your

  201. own choice. To do what? To operate them. On your

  202. own will. On your own. When there is a purpose

  203. for it. When there is a need for it. The receiver

  204. is the one. That makes the choice. To operate.

  205. Hallelujah. That place. 1 Corinthians chapter

    1 Corinthians 12 chapter mention

  206. 12. See again. Let's go there. We are going to

  207. stay there. or some things. 1 Corinthians 12

    1 Corinthians 12:6

  208. verse 6. It says, And there are diversities of

  209. what? Oppressions. These diversities of oppressions

  210. can only be by the will of the believer. So,

  211. stir up your mind. Stir up your will. Stir it

  212. up. Stir it up. stayed up stayed up for there

  213. inside you is the prophetic i'm giving a word

  214. now somebody for there inside you is the prophetic

  215. but they're lying inside you is the word of is

  216. the word of wisdom but there inside you is the

  217. word of knowledge but there inside is the gift

  218. of feeling for there is that is the walking of

  219. miracles but there inside you is the deal of

  220. faith hallelujah for there inside you lying his

  221. bones and interpretation of thoughts act on your

  222. will dear believer and operate them all. The

  223. Holy Ghost has taken that which is his and has

  224. given it to you. Praise God. He has given us

  225. all. He has given us all. He has given us all.

  226. He has given us all. When it comes to manifesting

  227. the things of the Spirit, the Spirit has taken

  228. all of it and has given it to the believer. Hallelujah.

  229. You have Everything that is the Holy Ghost. You

  230. have it. You have it. You have it. You have it.

  231. I'll repeat myself again. You have it. All that

  232. is the Holy Ghost. You have it. Praise God. That

  233. was several ideals. Don't forget. The Holy Ghost

  234. has already willed it and has given it to you.

  235. Amen. He has given it to you. They are all in

  236. us. So make a decision today to prophesy. Make

  237. a decision today to manifest. Make a decision

  238. to make visible a prophetic word. Make a decision

  239. today to make visible a word of wisdom. Make

  240. a decision today to make visible a word of knowledge.

  241. It's in you, dear believer. Why? Because when

  242. you do that, you are bringing benefit. Praise

  243. God. That word, to profit all, or to profit with

  244. all, it means sumfero. Profit with all. It means

  245. what? Sumfero. S -U -M -P -H -E -R -O. Sumfero.

  246. Sumfero. Sumfero means To benefit others. To

  247. contribute to others. To bear together with others.

  248. To bring advantage to others. Be better towards

  249. others. Tumfero means what? To bring benefit

  250. to others. Do you see? The Holy Ghost has given

  251. you the prophetic in order to bring benefit to

  252. others. The Holy Ghost has given you word of

  253. wisdom to fanerosis towards others. The Holy

  254. Ghost has given you word of knowledge to Tumfero

  255. towards others. You see the reason why the believer

  256. must always manifest the things of the spirit

  257. because all the things of the spirit has been

  258. given to the believer in my name you shall cast

  259. out devils in my name you shall lay hands on

  260. the sick and the sick will get healed in my name

  261. you shall speak new tongues can you see It's

  262. not the Holy Spirit that will come and lay his

  263. hands there. It's not the Holy Ghost that will

  264. come and speak the tongues. It's not the Holy

  265. Ghost that will come and cast out the devils.

  266. You are the one that will cast the devils out

  267. because all the gift is in you and you shall

  268. receive power after that the Holy Ghost is what?

  269. It's come upon you. So everything is yours in

  270. Christ Jesus. Hallelujah. The posture that God

  271. has put the believer in is the posture of benefit.

  272. Every day the believer ought to benefit other

  273. brethren. Every day the believer must bring benefit.

  274. Bring benefit. Bring benefit to your sisters.

  275. Bring benefit to your brother. Bring benefit

  276. to your local church. Bring benefit to your pastors.

  277. Bring benefit to your husband. Bring benefit

  278. to your wife. Bring benefit to your children.

  279. All the things of the Holy Ghost are yours. Hallelujah.

  280. Bring benefit. Acts chapter 20, verse 20. Let's

    Acts 20:20

  281. see that word. Benefit. Acts 20, 20. And how

  282. I kept back nothing that was profitable unto

  283. you. But have done what? I have shown you and

  284. have taught you publicly. And from house to house.

  285. I kept nothing. I kept nothing. This is Paul

  286. speaking. I kept nothing that is profitable unto

  287. you. All that the Holy Ghost has given you. Is

  288. profitable to the local church. Don't keep it.

  289. Don't hold it. Release it. Operate in them all.

  290. 1 Corinthians chapter 10 verse 33. Even as I

    1 Corinthians 10:33

  291. please all men in all things, not seeking my

  292. own profit, but the profit of many. Hallelujah.

  293. Seek the profit of your brother. Seek the profit

  294. of your sister. Seek the profit of your local

  295. church. Seek the profit of believers around you.

  296. The gifts of the Holy Ghost are yours. Why should

  297. I do that? I told us on Sunday to write something

  298. down. Walk in love. Hallelujah. Walk in love.

  299. Walk in love. Why? Because you cannot bring benefits

  300. to the local church if you don't make a choice

  301. to walk in love. You see? The God kind of love

  302. is a profiting kind of love. The God kind of

  303. love is a beneficial kind of love. The God kind

  304. of love makes the other better. The God kind

  305. of love tears up the other. The God kind of love

  306. is the love that ensures that the other keeps

  307. growing. Everywhere, we're going to see it. Everywhere

  308. you see the scripture talks about love, you will

  309. see sacrifice. You will see benefits. I'm going

  310. to read two, three scriptures and then I'll leave

  311. off here. 1 Corinthians chapter 13. 1 Corinthians

    1 Corinthians 13 chapter mention 1 Corinthians 13 chapter mention

  312. chapter 13. When it comes to the operation of

  313. the things of the spirit, manifesting the things

  314. of the spirit, love. is the platform. Love is

  315. the key. Love is the key. Love is the key. Love

  316. is the key. Walk in love. Walk in love. Walk

  317. in love. Walk in love. And in walking in love,

  318. you will see a demonstration of all the things

  319. of the Spirit through you. You will see the operation

  320. of all the things of the Holy Ghost through you.

  321. 1 Corinthians 13. He said, though I speak with

  322. the tongues of men and of angels and have not

  323. charity, I am become a sounding brass or a tinkling

  324. cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy

  325. and understand all mysteries and all knowledge,

  326. and though I have all faith so that I can remove

  327. mountains and have not charity, I am nothing.

  328. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the

  329. poor, And though I give my body to be burned

  330. and have no charity, it profited me what? Nothing.

  331. So which means you can choose to prophesy and

  332. not walk in love. You can give a word of wisdom

  333. and you are not in love. You can give a word

  334. of knowledge and you are not walking in love.

  335. How do I know what will now come after you have

  336. given a word of prophecy? How do I know? that

  337. you're not working in love when you give a word

  338. of wisdom, selfishness is going to come up. How

  339. do I know that you're not working in love when

  340. you operate in the gift of healing? There will

  341. be divisions. There will be carnality. There

  342. will be works of flesh manifested. But every

  343. time there is working in love and there is oppression

  344. of the things of the spirit, you will see pride.

  345. You won't see carnality. You won't see self -centeredness.

  346. You won't see divisions. He said love or charity

  347. suffered long. It's kind. Can you see? Charity

  348. envied not. Can you see? Sacrifice. Charity vaunted

  349. not itself. Charity is not buffed up. Charity

  350. behave itself what? does not behave itself unseemly.

  351. It does not speak her own. It's not easily provoked.

  352. When we keep reading, you keep saying that love

  353. is not selfish. Prophecy that the Holy Ghost

  354. has given you, all the gifts of the Holy Ghost

  355. that he has given you, is not yours to keep.

  356. It's for you to walk in love with them towards

  357. the local church. For you to walk in love with

  358. them towards the brethren. Ephesians 5 verse

    Ephesians 5:2

  359. 2. Ephesians 5 verse 2. See what the scripture

    Ephesians 5:2

  360. says. And walk in love as Christ also at work

  361. loved us. And have given himself. For us as an

  362. offering. And his sacrifice to God. For his sweet

  363. smelling. So what Jesus did. Was to bring profit

  364. to us. What Jesus did. Was to bring benefit to

  365. us. What Jesus did. Was to make our lives. Of

  366. more advantage. Colossians chapter 3. Colossians

    Colossians 3 chapter mention Colossians 3 chapter mention

  367. chapter 3. Verse 12. See what the scripture says.

  368. Put on, therefore, as the elect of God, holy

  369. and beloved, power of mercy, kindness, humbleness

  370. of mind, meekness, long -suffering, touching,

  371. forbearing one another, and forgiving one another.

  372. If anyone have a quarrel against you, right?

  373. Even as Christ, what? forgive you also do yes.

  374. He was supporting everybody. And above all things,

  375. put on love, which is the bond of what? Perfectness.

  376. You see, because you are walking in love. You

  377. are forgiving one another. Because you are walking

  378. in love, you are showing mercy to one another.

  379. You are showing kindness to one another. You

  380. are humble towards one another. You are meek

  381. towards one another. You are long -suffering

  382. towards one another. Hallelujah. When it comes

  383. to the oppression of the things of the Spirit,

  384. it's by love. Hallelujah. That is the only way

  385. you can bring benefit to your brother. You can

  386. bring benefit to your husband. You can bring

  387. benefit to your wife when you walk in love. So

  388. all the gifts of the Holy Ghost can only be beneficial

  389. to your sisters, to your brothers, to the local

  390. church when you walk in love. So we are the ones

  391. who desire to demonstrate that which we have

  392. received of the Spirit of God. Hallelujah. So

  393. what are the characteristics of being filled

  394. with the Spirit of God? What are the characteristics?

  395. Number one, you are giving to supernatural utterances.

  396. Acts chapter 2 verse 4, we are ready. When you

    Acts 2:4

  397. are filled with the Spirit of God, you are given

  398. to supernatural utterances. Tongues and interpretation

  399. of tongues. The prophecy. Word of wisdom. Word

  400. of knowledge. Supernatural utterances. To revelations

  401. and visions. When you are filled with the Spirit

  402. of God, you will see revelations and visions.

  403. Acts chapter 2, verse 17 to 18. Acts chapter

    Acts 2:17–18 Acts 2:17–18

  404. 2, verse 17 to 18. You can read it. When you

  405. are being filled with the Spirit of God, you

  406. are going to see miracles. That's the third one.

  407. Miracles. Miracles. Miracles. Signs and wonders.

  408. Everywhere you see men are giving and are filled

  409. with the Spirit of God, you are going to see

  410. demonstration of miracles. Signs and wonders.

  411. Romans chapter 15 verse 19. Romans chapter 15

    Romans 15:19 Romans 15:19

  412. verse 19. Acts chapter 10 verse 38. How God anointed

    Acts 10:38

  457. and willing to what? To serve. Hallelujah. Everywhere

  458. you see a man that is filled with the Spirit

  459. of God, look out for these characteristics. Look

  460. out for these characteristics. Some of the things

  461. that will hinder us from manifesting the gifts

  462. of the Holy Ghost. Some of the things that will

  463. hinder us from manifesting the things of the

  464. Spirit in this season. You know, number one,

  465. when we despise the things of the Holy Ghost.

  466. 1 Thessalonians 5, 16 to 20. When we despise

  467. prophesies, that word to despise prophesies,

  468. it means when you treat the things of the Spirit

  469. with contempt, willful ignorance, making a choice

  470. to despise the things of the Spirit. When you

  471. suppress the things of the Spirit, you are despising

  472. the things of the Spirit. Number two, one of

  473. the things that will stop you from manifesting

  474. the things of the Spirit, your association. If

  475. you have a friend that despises the things of

  476. the Spirit, I give you a little time, you will

  477. end up like your friend. When you have fellowship

  478. or move with believers who do not contend for

  479. the things of the Spirit, when you move with

  480. believers, When you move with believers that

  481. do not contend to see the manifestation and demonstration

  482. of the things of the Spirit, with time, you will

  483. stop seeing them in your life. When you move

  484. with believers that their desire and fervency

  485. for the things of the Spirit is low, you are

  486. not going to see them soon in your life. When

  487. your fervency and desire is low, your fervency

  488. and desire for the things of the Spirit will

  489. also be low in a short time. Three, when you

  490. are familiar with the things of the Spirit. Familiarity.

  491. We know one now. We know, we know, we know. Do

  492. not be familiar with the things of the Spirit,

  493. with the Holy Ghost. The flow of the things of

  494. the Holy Ghost is always fresh. The flow of the

  495. Holy Ghost in the believer is always what? It's

  496. always fresh. Desire to see fresh utterances.

  497. Desire to see fresh move of the Holy Ghost in

  498. your life. Do not be in familiarity with the

  499. things of the Holy Ghost. I just gave a prophetic

  500. word now to someone. Let it be fresh. Desire

  501. that daily the flow of the Spirit through you

  502. will be flesh in all your meetings. In any meeting,

  503. desire to see the flow of the things of the Holy

  504. Ghost fresh. Four. Number four. One of the things

  505. that will stop you or hinder you from manifesting

  506. the things of the Spirit is worldliness. Worldliness.

  507. Carnality. Worldliness. When you begin to hear

  508. some sort of doctrine that plays down on the

  509. love of God, on the love work and honor for the

  510. body of Christ. Wordliness. Wordliness. When

  511. you begin hearing some doctrines that plays down

  512. on the love of God. that plays down on the things

  513. of the spirit, that plays down on honor for the

  514. body of Christ, worldliness. When you begin to

  515. listen to people and friends that quench your

  516. pursuit for the supernatural, please, I want

  517. to speak to someone here. Stop listening to people

  518. that always are around you to quench your desire

  519. for the supernatural. Stop listening to them.

  520. In fact, let me say this, it's coming to my heart,

  521. leave them. Any friend that will quench your

  522. quest, your pursuit for the supernatural power

  523. of the Holy Ghost, leave that friend. It's not

  524. a supernatural friendship. Number five. Prayerlessness.

  525. Prayerlessness can cause your fervency for the

  526. things of the spirit to be low. Prayerlessness

  527. can cause your fervency for the things, demonstration

  528. of the things of the Holy Ghost, the manifestation

  529. of the things of the Holy Ghost, your fervency

  530. for them to be low. So now, We say characteristics

  531. of the things of the Holy Ghost. We say when

  532. you are filled with the Spirit, number one, what

  533. did I say? When you are filled with the Spirit,

  534. number one, let me know whether you are with

  535. me. You are giving to supernatural utterances.

  536. You are giving to supernatural utterances. God

  537. bless you. So, we are going to pick that one,

  538. number one. When you are filled with the Spirit

  539. of God, the first evidence we see scripturally,

  540. can you hear what I'm saying? The first evidence,

  541. one of the initial evidence that we are going

  542. to see at work in your life as a believer is

  543. the supernatural utterance. Supernatural utterance.

  544. Supernatural utterance. Speaking, speaking, speaking,

  545. speaking, speaking. Acts chapter 2 verse 4. Acts

    Acts 2:4 Acts 2:4

  546. chapter 2 verse 4. And they were all filled with

  547. the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other

  548. tongues as the Spirit gave them. utterance speaking

  549. as chapter 4 verse 8 then peter fear with the

  550. holy ghost spoke unto them speaking when you

  551. are filled with the holy ghost the initial first

  552. evidence we are going to see is supernatural

  553. alterance acts of the former study one Acts chapter

    Acts 4:31

  554. 4 verse 31. And when they had prayed, the place

  555. was shaking where they were assembled together

  556. and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost

  557. and they did what? And they spake the word of

  558. God with holiness. Speaking. Acts chapter 10

    Acts 10:45

  559. verse 45. Can you see? Speaking. Acts chapter

    Acts 10:45

  560. 10, verse 45. And they of the circumcision we

  561. believe were astonished as many as came with

  562. Peter because what? That on the Gentiles also

  563. was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. See

  564. 46, everybody. For they did what? For they heard

  565. them speak with tongues. Hallelujah. Write this

  566. as additional scripture. Acts 19 verse 6. Acts

    Acts 19:6 Acts 19:6

  567. 19 verse 6. Acts 11 verse 24. So. When we say.

    Acts 11:24

  568. The utterance gift. Of supernatural utterance.

  569. We mean. Speaking in tongues. We mean. Prophecies.

  570. Tongues are supernatural utterance. And the believer

  571. is the one that makes choice to speak. He's the

  572. one that acts on his own will to speak. Why?

  573. Because being filled with the Spirit of God,

  574. I said on Sunday that somebody will ask a question.

  575. So how can I be filled with the spirit of God?

  576. And I told us that being filled with the spirit

  577. of God means what? Manifesting that which is

  578. the Holy Ghost from within. Demonstrating the

  579. things of the spirit. So how can that be possible?

  580. By speaking. Hallelujah. By speaking in tongues.

  581. How can I stay off the things of the Spirit and

  582. I see a demonstration of them? By doing what?

  583. By speaking. Speaking in tongues. Giving a prophetic

  584. word. When we read 1 Corinthians chapter 14.

    1 Corinthians 14 chapter mention

  585. 1 Corinthians chapter 14. What do we see? In

    1 Corinthians 14 chapter mention

  586. the whole of 1 Corinthians chapter 14, Paul was

    1 Corinthians 14 chapter mention

  587. addressing the church to bring order regarding

  588. the oppression of the prophetic. And he began

  589. that chapter, every one of us, let's go there

  590. because we are coming to that place now. He said,

  591. follow after charity and desire spiritual gifts.

  592. But rather that they may what? prophesied, for

  593. he that would speak it in an unknown tongue,

  594. speaking unto men or unto God, for no man understood

  595. him, how being in the Spirit he would speak at

  596. mysteries. But he that prophesied, speaking unto

  597. men, verification and exhortation and comfort

  598. was for everybody. He that speaketh in an unknown

  599. tongue hath defied himself. But he that prophesied

  600. hath defied what? The church. So what is prophecy

  601. in chapter 14? When you read, prophecy is tongues

  602. and interpretation of tongues. Tongues plus interpretation

  603. of tongues is equal to prophecy. What is prophecy?

  604. Prophecy is supernatural utterance in a simple

  605. language that the audience can receive it and

  606. be edified. Let me repeat myself. Prophecy is

  607. supernatural utterance in simple language that

  608. the audience can receive that utterance and what?

  609. Be edified. This is a summary of prophecy. We're

  610. going to come with time and teach on prophecy,

  611. gift of prophecy, word of wisdom, word of knowledge.

  612. The last prayer groups that we had, some of us

  613. were giving prophecy, some of us were giving

  614. word of wisdom, some of us were giving word of

  615. knowledge. However, we're all mixing it together,

  616. but we're going to come and then be trained and

  617. taught. So you see an emphasis by Paul on speaking

  618. in tongues. Oh, my dearly beloved brethren on

  619. this platform, I encourage you. Pray in tongues

  620. more. Pray in tongues more. Speak in tongues

  621. more. Speak in tongues more. For in so doing,

  622. you're going to make so much adventure in the

  623. things of the Holy Ghost. For in so doing, you're

  624. going to see an increase in the demonstration

  625. of the things of the Holy Ghost much more. For

  626. in so doing, you're going to see the manifestation

  627. of the things of the Holy Ghost. See how many

  628. times Paul, Had to mention tongues. 1 Corinthians

    1 Corinthians 12:10

  629. chapter 12 verse 10. He mentioned tongues there.

  630. To another, the walking of miracles. To another,

  631. prophecy. To another, designing of spirits. To

  632. another, diverse kinds of tongues. To another,

  633. interpretation of what tongues. 1 Corinthians.

    1 Corinthians 12:30

  634. 12 verse 30. Have all gifts of healing? Do all

  635. speak with tongues? Do all interpret tongues?

  636. 13, 1 to 2. 1 Corinthians 13. Do I speak with

  637. tongues of men and of angels? Verse 2. And do

  638. I have the gift of prophecy? tongues first Corinthians

    1 Corinthians 14:2

  639. 14 verse 2 though I speak in an unknown tongue

  640. verse 4 he that speaketh in an unknown tongue

  641. verse 5 I would rather that ye all speak with

  642. what speak with tongues hallelujah See verse

  643. 6, everybody. Now, brethren, if I come verse

  644. 6 to 11, from verse 6 to 11 is the battle. Verse

  645. 13, go to verse 13 to 14. Wherefore, let him

  646. that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that

  647. he may what? He may interpret prophecy. Hallelujah.

  648. Verse 14, for if I pray in an unknown tongue,

  649. can you see how many times Paul has made mention

  650. of tongues? Emphasis on tongues, tongues, tongues,

  651. tongues, tongues, tongues. He said, for I thank

  652. God that I pray in tongues more than ye are.

  653. Tongues. Tongues is in the spirit. Hallelujah.

  654. Can you hear what I'm saying, everybody? Tongues

  655. is in the spirit. And if tongues is a manifestation

  656. of the spirit, then you must value the things

  657. of the spirit. It means that you must value tongues.

  658. am in the spirit and tongues is in the spirit

  659. so I ought to value it. Let me repeat myself.

  660. I am in the spirit and tongues is in the spirit

  661. so I ought to value tongues. Hallelujah. By tongues

  662. we can make adventures in the spirit. By tongues

  663. we can make adventures in the spirit. By tongues

  664. we will stay aflame. By tongues we will stay

  665. fervent. Will we stay long enough? Praying in

  666. tongues. We will see more demonstration. And

  667. manifestation of the Holy Ghost. Let me repeat

  668. this line again. When we stay long enough. Praying

  669. in the Holy Ghost. We will see the demonstration.

  670. And the manifestation. Of the things of the Holy

  671. Ghost. Much more. Okay. Praying in tongues. Find

  672. Jesus. In the spirit. Do you hear what I said?

  673. Praying in tongues fine -tunes us in the Spirit.

  674. This that I'm about to say is someone's answer

  675. right now. When you pray more in tongues, your

  676. experiences in the things of the Spirit will

  677. begin to change. These just answered someone's

  678. questions about revelations and visions. Who

  679. is the person? There's somebody on this platform.

  680. You've been having a question and much more regarding

  681. revelation and vision. Who is the person? You

  682. can just indicate on the chat box. This is your

  683. answer. When you pray more in tongues, your experiences

  684. in the things of the spirit will begin to change.

  685. So go extreme in tongues. Pray in tongues more.

  686. Think also in tongues more. Give a hymn. Spiritual

  687. tongues. spiritual songs sing in the spirit much

  688. more the interpretations are going to come for

  689. in so doing direction will come For in so doing,

  690. comfort will come. For in so doing, healing will

  691. come. For in so doing, that fire that you seek

  692. will be set up again. For in so doing, you're

  693. going to set up so much revival in your inside.

  694. So you must be filled and full of the things

  695. of the Holy Ghost. How? By praying in tongues.

  696. How do I get filled with the Spirit of God? By

  697. praying in tongues. By speaking much more. So

  698. you need to have fervency when it comes to the

  699. flow of the Holy Ghost. Do you understand what

  700. I said? You need to have what? You need to have

  701. fervency. Oh, your fervency must be on the edge.

  702. Please, hear this thing I'm saying. Many people

  703. have walked up to me and asked me, Sir, how is

  704. it that you seem to flow when you just come into

  705. a meeting? The meeting will be so dry. And then

  706. when you stand up, there seems to be a steering

  707. that is different that just catches people. A

  708. couple of people have had the privilege, we've

  709. had the privilege to go to some certain programs

  710. around on this island and the meeting was as

  711. dry as anything. And by the feeling with the

  712. Spirit of God, we came up to the minister and

  713. that place was on fire and the flow of the things

  714. of the Holy Ghost. How? is this possible by staying

  715. fervent when it comes to the flow of the Holy

  716. Ghost? Brothers and sisters, stay fervent. Oh,

  717. dear husband, dear husband, listen to me. If

  718. you want to see much more of the Holy Ghost demonstration

  719. in your family, stay fervent to the flow of the

  720. things of the Holy Ghost. Dear wife, if you want

  721. to see much more the flow of the Holy Ghost in

  722. that family, stay fervent when it comes to the

  723. things of the Holy Ghost. One of the things I

  724. will tell you, how to stay fervent. Number one,

  725. your desire must not be ordinary. Do you hear

  726. what I said? Your desire to see the demonstration

  727. of the things of the Holy Ghost must not be what?

  728. Must not be ordinary. 1 Corinthians chapter 12

    1 Corinthians 12:31

  729. verse 31. Everybody see what the scripture says.

  730. 1 Corinthians 12 verse 31. He said, but what?

    1 Corinthians 12:31

  731. Convert endlessly the best gifts. Hallelujah.

  732. When it comes to the things of the Holy Ghost,

  733. you have to convert how? Earnestly. 1 Corinthians

  734. 14, 39. 1 Corinthians 14, 39. Wherefore, brethren,

  735. convert to prophesy, and forbid not what? To

  736. speak with tongues. 1 Corinthians 14, verse 1.

    1 Corinthians 14:1

  737. 1 Corinthians 14, verse 1. Follow authority and

    1 Corinthians 14:1

  738. desire spiritual gifts. Hallelujah. Romans chapter

    Romans 12:11

  739. 12, verse 11. Romans chapter 12, verse 11. Let's

    Romans 12:11

  740. see there, brethren. Romans 12, verse 11. See

    Romans 12:11

  741. what the scripture says there. Not flawfully

  742. in business. Serving the what? In spirit. Serving

  743. the Lord. Serving in spirit. Thou wilt to convert

  744. earnestly. Are you here with me? Thou wilt to

  745. convert earnestly. The Greek word there is zilo.

  746. Zilo. Z -E -L -O -O. Convert endlessly. Zeal.

  747. It's the same word with be fervent. The same

  748. root word, zeal. It means to burn with zeal.

  749. To burn with zeal. Be fervent means to boil.

  750. Have a zeal that is unquenchable. Have a zeal

  751. that is boiling. the fire of the spirit so your

  752. desire must not be ordinary your desire must

  753. not be what ordinary be flexible to the holy

  754. ghost so your pharmacy and flexibility To the

  755. Holy Ghost. And to the things of the Holy Ghost.

  756. Must not be ordinary. Hallelujah. And they must

  757. be built upon. These things I'm about saying.

  758. Your fervency. And your flexibility. To the flow.

  759. Of the things of the Holy Ghost. Must be built

  760. on. Regular devotion. Regular devotion. In fellowship

  761. with God. Regular devotion in fellowship with

  762. God. In words, in prayer, and in meditation.

  763. In words, in prayer, and in meditation. 1 Thessalonians

    1 Thessalonians 5:17

  764. 5 verse 17. 1 Thessalonians 5 verse 17. See what

    1 Thessalonians 5:17

  765. the scripture says. Glory to God. I just perceive

  766. more that there are many people on this platform

  767. that are already stirred up in the spirit. 1

  768. Corinthians 5, verse 17. From verse 16. Rejoice

  769. evermore. Pray without what? Ceasing. Regular

  770. devotion in prayers, in the word, and in meditation.

  771. Luke 18 verse 1, and Jesus gave this parable

    Luke 18:1

  772. unto them, saying, men ought to always pray and

  773. not faint. Ephesians chapter 6 verse 18, praying

    Ephesians 6:18

  774. always with all manner of supplication in the

  775. spirit. Romans 12, verses 1 to 2. Your mind be

    Romans 12:1–2

  776. transformed on the word. So your frequency and

  777. flexibility to the flow of the things of the

  778. Holy Ghost must be built on what? Regular what?

  779. Devotion. In prayer. In the word. And in what?

  780. In meditation. Secondly, in your participation.

  781. In Holy Ghost meetings. In your participation

  782. in what? In Holy Ghost meetings. You see, why

  783. all of them were able to flow in the things of

  784. the Holy Ghost in Acts chapter 2 verse 4 is because

    Acts 2:4

  785. they were all together in one place. Always participate

  786. in believers meetings. Your fervency will be

  787. on the edge. Your fire will be on the edge. Your

  788. desire will not be ordinary. You will find men

  789. that are like passion like you. You will find

  790. men that are like passion. Men that have same

  791. passion. Men that are burning. Men that are converting

  792. endlessly. Just as you. So make a choice. You

  793. have to make a choice to start out on the things

  794. of the Holy Ghost. When it comes to the flow

  795. and manifesting the things of spirit, you have

  796. to start out. Please, don't be afraid. I just

  797. hear in my heart a word for someone now. Don't

  798. be afraid to start something. Don't be afraid

  799. to start out on the prophetic. Don't be afraid

  800. to start out praying in tongues. Don't be afraid

  801. to give out that word of knowledge. So make a

  802. choice. You are the one to start it out. 1 Corinthians

    1 Corinthians 14:26

  803. 14, verse 26. 1 Corinthians 14, verse 26. How

    1 Corinthians 14:26

  804. is it, brethren, when you come together? Every

  805. one of you had what? Had a thumb. Every one of

  806. you had a doctrine. Every one of you had what?

  807. Interpretation. Can you see a Holy Ghost meeting

  808. there? Let all things be done unto what? A defiant.

  809. So stand it up. 1 Timothy chapter 4 verse 14.

    1 Timothy 4:14

  810. 1 Timothy chapter 4 verse 14. See what the scripture

    1 Timothy 4:14
