2024-01-24_Wednesday Service. Activating The Vision On Earth Realm. By PBC Senior Pastor, Rev. Ambrose Nyangao

May the Lord bless you, sana.

Let me pray and then I'll share the message for this evening.

Our Father, we thank you so much for the opportunity of calling on the name of the Lord.

The Bible says the name of the Lord is a strong tower.

The righteous run into it and they are safe.

We believe that God, your name, fortifies us, protects us from all kinds of situations and challenges that we may face.

Thank you that we got time to even be part of this service, to come and pray together, to come and call on your name, and we believe that the prayers that have been lifted up from this altar are being answered in very supernatural ways.

As your word goes forth and as your servant speaks, lord, may the Holy Spirit make your word alive and real to us, those here in person, those watching us online.

Wherever you are connect to the word of God.

So thank you for hearing our prayer, because we are prayed in Jesus' name and God's people said amen Tonight.

This month, we've been talking about vision, vision, vision, vision.

We've been casting the vision and as we are casting the vision, we are believing that somebody will catch it.

So tell your neighbor.

Vision is cast, that somebody may catch it Now, if somebody is throwing a ball and your hands are in the pocket, what will happen?

You'll do what you might be hit by the ball or you may miss the ball.

So Pastor Ambrose has been casting this vision, casting, casting, casting so that you can catch it.

And when you're catching it, you need to be focused on the ball.

Some of you know that I used to play basketball.

Hallelujah, just look at me, mazih.

I played serious basketball high school, college and one of the things we were told in basketball you have to really be focused and see the ball, see the player, see the ball and see the opponent.

So constantly you are watching your very own vision.

You are watching your very alert, because sometimes the ball would be thrown to you suddenly.

Hello, you're in motion, you're moving, and suddenly the ball is thrown at you and sometimes the person who is throwing the ball at you is not looking at you because you want the other opponent not to know where the ball is going.

And so my teammate may be here, but I'm looking there, but I have him in my eye view, so I know that I'm not just throwing the ball anyhow, but he also has to be alert that I might actually throw the ball to him.

Why?

Because during practice we have been doing that over and over again, and so during the matchday, when we are playing so we know each other, we know who he's where, and a ball can come your way suddenly and if you are not watching, if you're not focusing, the ball will hit you.

The ball may hurt you, and sometimes the basketball is a bit hard, it's not soft, so if you catch it when you are not ready, it might hit your fingers and you really feel pain, hello.

And so you don't slap the basketball, and that's another thing we learned.

You don't slap the basketball, you dribble the basketball, and those are things you learn to do.

And so many times when you see my hand going this way, it's just my basketball days, all right.

So it comes out just naturally like this, and I remember playing the basketball and things like that.

We are casting the vision and waiting for somebody to do it, to catch it.

And so tonight what I want to talk about is activating the vision on the earth realm.

Activating the vision on earth realm because, as we cast it, we need to activate it, it needs to become alive.

The verses I want to use are Isaiah, chapter 55, and God is speaking.

Isaiah 55 · chapter mention

This is what he says, verse 8 to 11,.

Let me read them, for my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways, my ways, declares the Lord, as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts then your thoughts.

Then he gives an illustration.

He says as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater.

It says so is my word that goes out from the mouth how it will not return to me Empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.

So God casts the vision.

It goes out, he expects it to come back with results.

Hallelujah, the clouds are full of rain, of water, so the rain falls onto the earth with the expectation that the earth will receive the rain, cause the seeds in the ground to bud and then there'll be a harvest.

And so three things that I want you to remember today as we talk about activating the vision.

Number one is that this vision and when I was actually reading this book and I pray that you have book and you're reading it and as I was reading the book, I read those verses and I said, god, how do we activate this vision or not?

Because we need to activate it, not in December but in January, and you have to activate it in your own life, in your own personal life.

So, as you've been listening to the messages on Wednesdays, listening to the word on Sundays, this word is going forth and it will not come back to God Empty, to not be void.

Something will happen to you.

I believe for some of you, something is already happening to you.

Something is shifting, something is changing in your mind, in your mind.

The soil of the earth for us is your mind.

The Bible said that a sower went out to sow seed and the seed fell on different soils, different mines.

Some mines were shallow, other mines were full of thorns, others were full of stones.

But there's a mind that was prepared.

It was good soil and the Bible says that that soil was able to release a harvest 30 fold, 60 fold, 100 fold.

My prayer is this what kind of mind do you have?

Is it shallow?

Just look at your neighbor.

I said your mind is shallow, it's so thin that anything can take out those thoughts any minute.

The devil can just come and pick it and it is gone.

Or is your mind a bit deep, but it is full of thorns, the cares of this world.

You're already thinking about this, thinking about that, worried about this, and the word you hear is choked out and it is gone, it disappears.

Or is it good soil?

Is it prepared soil?

And I believe I'm talking to people whose minds have really, really been prepared.

Look at your neighbor.

Until your neighbor, you're good soil, amen, you're good soil.

And so we need to activate this word.

We need to activate it, and God gives us the formula on how you activate it, and there are three things.

So let me say that three things and then we'll continue.

Number one the vision is faith activated.

That's number one.

The vision is faith activated.

Number two the vision is word activated, word activated.

And then, thirdly, the vision is sound activated.

So it is activated by faith, by the word, by sound Faith activated, word activated, sound activated.

When I say faith, I simply mean you must see the vision as done, see it as done.

When I say word activated, you must say the vision as done.

The first one is see the vision as done.

The second one is say the vision as done and then sound activated.

And Pastor Riggs will like this particular one, because sound activated is shouted as done.

Number one see it as done.

Number two say it as done and then, thirdly, shout it as done.

When you watch a movie or anything on YouTube or whatever, there are three things that are very key.

First of all, you must see the picture.

Hello.

Number two, you must hear the words, hello.

Number three you need sound.

There is a sound track, there is a background music and things.

Things happen so that when you are trying to anticipate something that is about to happen and you're trying to gear yourself, you know they create certain sounds.

Now, that is playing with your mind because it is setting you up.

Now, if something dangerous is about to happen, you're not going to hear a soft music.

Now, that is wrong music for a wrong anticipation.

And let me tell you this these guys who make movies got all their ideas from the book of Revelation.

Hello, hello.

Because the book of Revelation is full of sight, words and word sound.

And God is that kind of person.

For him to communicate, he needs to give you a picture you can see.

He needs to give you something you can hear, and he makes this sound.

There's a lot of sound.

So if you are used to quietness and no words, don't go to heaven.

Hello, because heaven is full of so much light, a lot of sound.

Everything is being seen, words are being spoken, and so that's what I'm going to share with you how to activate the vision.

The Bible says this.

Let me read Habakkuk.

Habakkuk is a very interesting prophet and this is what he said in Habakkuk 2, verse 2.

Habakkuk 2:2

The Bible says this again, talking about this vision being activated.

He says then then the Lord replied write down the revelation.

So let me read it in that New King James, because it then kind of uses the word vision.

It says write the vision and make it plain on tablets that he may run.

Who does what?

Who reads it?

So you write the vision.

Okay, then somebody needs to read it.

The words are there, for the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it will speak and it will not lie, though it tarries.

Wait for it because it will surely come.

It will not tarry, and when you hear me saying over and over again that the door is open Because this year God is opening a door and he's expecting you to go through it.

Jesus is that door.

So one of the things you need to do, especially this year, this month, next month, read the theme passage.

Read John, chapter 10, verse 1 to 24.

John 10:1–24

Then read it again.

Then read it again.

Read it again.

You begin to see things in pictures.

When you read things, we see things in pictures.

When you think of a door, you already see doors around you.

So you are seeing something.

So read it.

Revelations 3, 7 to 8, read those verses.

Behold, I have opened a door before you that no man can shut.

Don't see the door as shut.

See it as open.

God has done what Open the door for you.

So let me start with the first one Faith activated.

Faith activated.

Now.

When we say see it as done, we are saying use your imagination.

That's why last week, when I was talking about image, I said image is part of your imagination.

If you're going to image something, imagine it.

When you read the Bible, use your imagination.

Hallelujah, let it be a movie inside.

You See things.

Use your imagination.

Let me read this verse Because your imagination is important.

Now, many times people use their imagination to do the wrong thing and that is why some people, as Christians, they say don't use your imagination.

Your imagination is very wicked.

It's bad, it's true.

It just depends on what you put in your imagination.

Hello, you can watch a horror movie, hello, and it horrifies you.

Then you can watch a football match between Asadol and Liverpool, hallelujah.

You're just putting it in your imagination.

You're imagining God wants you to imagine.

That's your image.

You are created in God's image.

God imagined you before you ever showed up.

If I want to know what God was thinking about concerning Pastor Riggs, I just need to see him.

God imagined him and he showed up.

You are important, you are special.

You are God's imagination, in reality, in the now.

So don't get scared about yourself.

Let me tell you this Don't even be worried about who your parents are or who your parents are.

You say you know, I pray.

My parents were light.

My father had a light skin.

My mother had a light skin.

Therefore, I would have been born light skinned.

Have you ever seen parents who are dark skinned?

A father is dark skinned, mother is dark skinned and you showed up light skinned.

Now, in science, that's what we call genetics.

All right, maybe a great great grandfather was light, so the jeans just jumped your parents and showed up inside you.

But let me tell you, before even your parents showed up with their jeans, god was there.

God imagined you.

God imagined you.

God saw you, he had a picture of you and he wrote everything down.

He recorded that movie and every time he looks at it he says, and it is good.

Let me tell you this If your vision is going to come alive, imagine, let me read Philippians, chapter four, verse eight.

And the Bible says this this is these are verses that you know very well.

It says, finally, brethren, whatever things are, what are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there's any virtue and if there's anything praiseworthy, do what.

Meditate on these things.

Now, this is New King James Martial.

Now, if I read NIV and just give it to me in NIV so that I can read the last part, the last part, it says whatever you have learned or received, verse eight, just verse eight.

The last part of verse eight it says all right, whatever things are lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy.

Do what?

Think about such things.

The Bible, in another version, says imagine such things, things that are good.

Imagine yourself excelling this year.

Imagine yourself having a triple salary.

Somebody's beginning to smile, but you have to imagine.

Imagine yourself being paid in dollars.

Imagine.

Imagine I carry in my wallet Kenya shillings and US dollars, but they're not.

I carry one dollar bills, but in my imagination they have a few zeros.

Hello, imagine.

Imagine everything was created by imagination.

This building, the architect had to imagine.

Put things together before it even existed.

Put things together.

I remember when the engineers had built this thing, apakatikati there was a big steel pole right here in the middle went straight to the middle, because this building is circular, and they put that thing straight.

Now, when we had finished building, now the engineers came and said they were going to cut that steel and remove it.

The discussion that went around, that situation was serious.

The elders of the church met and they said this kachuma cannot be pushed out, because they had already been imagining and the imagination was simple this thing, this pillar here, has been holding the roof up.

This roof is made out of steel and it had been holding and they had seen it for a long time as we continued building this building.

Now, in the imagination, this was what they were imagining that if this thing is cut and pulled out, what will happen?

The roof will cave in.

So with their Christian imaginations, they said this thing cannot be pulled out.

So they were saying how can this church be?

And the pulpit is right in the middle of this building, and where will the pulpit be?

The engineer came and said I'm the one who built this thing, I know where the forces of this building are.

Then he had to educate us.

He said the force is not up there coming down, because you need a force up there that when you remove that kuma, that force pushes this thing down.

He said this church is made out of pillars.

So there's a pillar there, the pillars.

If you see these corners I don't know if you can see them where the windows are Outside there are pillars going that way.

There's a pillar that way, there's a pillar that way.

And he said that the force of the roof is channeled through those pillars, not through the pole in the middle.

Now, it took us some time to understand that because, number one, we are not what Engineers.

I want to tell you that God is your engineer.

God knew how he created you and there's no force that is going to be placed on you that is going to crush you.

God knows how you are made, hallelujah.

He knows that the devil can push in a certain way and he will not make it.

No weapon that is fashioned against you shall prosper.

You have no idea how much strength you have, but sometimes our imagination is what defeats us.

Remember I have shared this story about Israel.

When they saw the giants, they said we looked like grasshopers in their sight, and so we did, also in our own sight.

That imagination of calling yourself a grasshoper dismantles you.

I want you to know that this vision will happen if you have faith that is activated in the right way.

Let me read these verses about faith.

The Bible says this in Hebrews by the way, that tumor was cut.

Hello, it was cut.

That was in 1997.

The building has been there since.

Nothing crashed.

Hallelujah.

God destroyed the powers of darkness 2,000 years ago.

That devil has not been able to crush God's redemption.

Tell your neighbor I'm intact in Jesus' name.

I needed an engineer to explain that.

I'm telling you God is your architect.

But did you know that God is an architect?

Do you also know that he's a builder.

The Bible says unless the Lord builds thank you Jesus those who build it labor in.

Did you know that he has a foundation?

He says if the house is not built on a rock, it will crush.

He knows what building is all about.

I like the part that says he's an architect.

Let me read it for you, then I will go to Hebrews, just to help you.

Hebrews, chapter 11.

Hebrews 11 · chapter mention

Around verse 10, let me see that.

Let me see if we can find it there, verse 10.

There it says this this was Abraham, for he was looking forward to the city with foundations whose architect and builder is God.

We can say that builder is an architect.

He drew the plans, but he's also a builder.

He's the engineer who made this building stand.

So don't worry about how your life is going to be tomorrow.

God prearranged that you'd have victory tomorrow.

I'm saying God prearranged ahead of time you'd have victory tomorrow.

So, whatever the devil brings you away, begin to imagine that he's already defeated.

Hallelujah, he's already defeated.

So let me go back to Hebrews.

I hope you're notharing something.

God is an engineer.

I like that.

He's an architect.

He knows what he's doing.

He knows why he put you the way he put you.

He knows why you were born in Kiambu and not in Turkana.

Thank you Jesus, hallelujah, he knows which nursery school you'd go.

He was setting you up for miracles.

So Hebrews, chapter 11, verse 1, talking about faith, faith activated.

Hebrews 11:1

The Bible says now, faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

The reason why we do not see it is because we are imagining it.

And let me tell you this Don't worry about what other people are imagining.

That's their problem.

Their imagination will not affect you.

You concentrate on your own imagination.

Believe for victory, believe, imagine that you have already won the battle.

The Bible says in verse 2, this is what the ancients were commanded for.

By faith, we understand, because you can imagine through faith, that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was feasible.

And, by the way, having done physics, that's a physics statement, hello.

So go back.

Go back so that I can just help some of you.

By faith, we understand that the universe was formed at God's command.

God spoke it so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

That is why matter.

This is matter what you can see.

You know the things you're holding, but they are made out of molecules, things you don't see.

Those molecules are made out of atoms which you don't see.

Those atoms are made out of protons and neutrons which you don't see.

Hello, so what was created, what you're seeing, was made out of things you do not see.

And yet those things exist, are real.

That's the idea I'm to.

That's the idea I'm to.

Where do you think they got what you call the atomic power?

Atomic power is the power that takes for you to break an atom apart.

It is so much power it is called atomic power, hello.

So God is amazing.

So use your imagination.

Imagine, continue saying I know what protons are.

Tell your neighbor, I know what protons are.

Yeah, they are protons, in fact.

In fact, you are walking around with protons because whatever material you have, it's also made up of molecules and whatever and whatever you know, all the fibers you have that came out of trees and things like that All those are made out of carbon.

Thank you, jesus.

Anyway, I'm going here.

It says by faith, abel brought God a better offering than came did.

By faith, he was commanded as righteous when God spoke well of his offerings and by faith, abel still speaks.

I'm going to verse 6, which verse you know, all of us.

It says this and without faith, without using this imagination of God and without faith, it is impossible to please God.

Because God is a God of imagination, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he does what he exists and that he rewards those who honestly seek him.

Now let me give you an example so that you can catch me.

When David was approaching Goliath, he had to imagine Goliath already defeated before the battle started.

That's imagination.

He fought the battle in his mind and finished it.

Now this is what he says in first Samuel, chapter 17.

1 Samuel 17 · chapter mention

I'm reading from verse 46.

This is what he said and he's talking to Goliath.

This is now what he's saying to Goliath, because he has imagined it and he's telling him the agenda.

He says this day, not tomorrow, I'm talking to somebody.

Your miracle is happening this day.

This day, your rent has already been paid.

This day.

He says this day, the Lord will deliver you into my hands.

Now, remember, the fight has not started, it is in his mind.

This day, the Lord will deliver you into my hands and I'll strike you down and then I will cut off your head.

The head is still intact, but he has already fought the battle and won.

This day, the Lord, not tomorrow, this day, this month of January, your miracle will come through.

This month.

Don't wait for April.

This month God can shift the situations of your life.

It has to be in your mind faith.

This day the Lord will deliver you into my hands and I'll strike you down and cut off your head.

And then he says this very day, I will give the cacuses of the Philistine army.

Now he's also dealing with the rest of the army.

Goliath is down, including the armies down, but they are still alive.

The brothers, who are warriors, are under rocks, hidden men without vision.

They could not activate their vision.

They knew they finished.

Forty days Goliath had been pounding this message I'm going to finish you, I'm going to kill you.

It had always the propaganda had destroyed them.

Let me tell you this you need a heavenly propaganda.

You need God's word to come through.

Let me tell you this Don't look at the circumstances.

Imagine what God has said.

He says I will give the cacuses of the Philistine army.

To who?

To the birds.

He's already seeing the birds eating these people and the wild animals and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel.

That includes Kenya.

See, we are hearing it now.

Yes, that there's a God who brought Goliath down.

Nobody in this whole world has never heard the story of David and Goliath, because David imagined it.

And then he says this in verse 47.

All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword nor spear that the Lord saves, for the battle is the Lord's and he will give all of you into our hands.

Immediately after that, the Bible says as the Philistine moved closer by the way, the Philistine had already been finished as he moved closer to attack him, david ran quickly towards the battle line to meet him, reaching into his back and taking out a stone, just one.

He slung it and struck the Philistine on the forehead.

The stone sank into his forehead and he fell face down on the ground.

So David triumphed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone, without a sword in his hand.

Without a stone in his hand I'm saying without a stone in his hand, without money in your pocket, something will shift in Jesus' name.

Without a sling and a stone, without a sword in his hand, he struck down the Philistine and killed him.

Imagine, it says and killed him.

But look at the next verse.

David ran and stood over him.

He took hold of the Philistine sword and drew it from his sheet.

After he killed him, he cut off his head with a sword.

All the things he had imagined came to pass.

When the Philistine saw that their hero was dead, they turned and ran.

Then the men of Israel and Judah.

Thank you, jesus.

Search forward.

With what?

With what?

Now I'm going to come back, number three, to talk about shouting, because activation is also done by sound, but this time by imagination.

So anybody here who doesn't have a job, begin to imagine.

Begin to imagine.

If it is a job where people wear suits, imagine yourself in suits.

Don't try going there just like that.

If in that whole setup, you don't see anybody with dreads, hello, begin to cut your dreads before you arrive there.

Acuna, dreads or no dreads, I'm coming in Tashanga.

Imagine, imagine.

That's what I'm trying to tell you.

This Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, being convinced of things you do not see.

This is how this vision is activated by imagination, by faith.

Let me read this one more verse, then I'll go to the second part Ephesians.

Ephesians, chapter 3, verse 20.

Ephesians 3:20

This verse also, you know, because we say it a lot, and it says this Now to him who is able to do what?

Immeasurably more than all you know, god wanted to use things that are so spread out.

First use of the word immeasurably.

Then he says more.

Then he says, oh, we ask or imagine.

Now.

This is a good statement, while I'm there, that there are certain things you need to ask God.

There are certain things you need to imagine God having done Immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power.

That is at work.

Where, within us, I'm unlocking somebody's miracle right now.

I'm unlocking somebody's miracle right now.

I'm unlocking somebody's miracle right now.

That's why sometimes, the reason why sometimes I tell you to to get a passport got of the country, is because sometimes you're so used to seeing what you have been seeing until it no longer sh'tours you, so sometimes you just need to go out of the country, go to Dubai.

Thank you, jesus.

Dubai is four hours.

Just go to Dubai, see buildings that are taller than all the buildings in Nairobi and come back to Nairobi saying if it was done there, it can be done here.

Go to places where the expressway is not just one, there are hundreds of them everywhere.

One time when the British were trying to cross the channel between Britain and the land on France side, they just used to use boats.

Many times, boats, boats, boats, boats.

Then they try to put a bridge and things like that.

Then somebody imagined what if we don't need to go over the waters?

What if we go down the waters until where the earth is and then build a tunnel in the earth across the English Channel?

Now, if you had an African mind, you tell yourself if you go down there and put machines there and go into the earth and go under there, the water on top now, because the water is on top of you, it will crash into this thing.

But guess what?

These people put trains pass under the ground from the side of England to the side of France and it just.

They just passed there because somebody who is not even saved thought about it, somebody who is not born again thought about it.

They just use their imagination and they said it can be done, it is done, it is working to this day.

Hello, that miracle, that issue you think is totally impossible.

Let me tell you this in 2024 it will be possible because somebody just imagined it is possible.

Some of you have stock and you are in business.

You have all this stock, stock, stock stock.

Nani's are 2022, but it was equal.

And you're sitting there telling yourself this stock will never go.

And that is the problem.

You're imagining it will never go.

Now change your imagination and say, before this, two months are over, I'm going to restock because all this stock is going.

Use your imagination.

Miracles are made out of what you imagine.

Are you neatering this?

I don't know why I'm emphasizing this, because I believe that this theme vision is going to be accelerated for some of you.

It's going to be accelerated Seriously.

Goliath came down with only one stone, though he was carrying five pasarigues.

Do you know why he was carrying five?

He was only going to use one, but why do you think he had four other stones left?

Let me tell you, goliath had four other brothers, one for each story.

They showed up.

In fact, there was one big giant there who had actually six toes and six toes, six fingers and six fingers, and a giant.

Let me tell you this Whether your giant has, no matter how many toes, he's coming down in 2024.

I'm saying he's coming down in 2024.

Jesus name, somebody better receive that.

Now.

All the giant may be looking at you every day and I can't make it.

Let me tell you this Begin to talk to him and say today I'm going to cut off your head.

Today you're coming down.

I'm going to give your cacus to the birds.

You're not going to survive in Jesus name.

And that is what many times you find.

Your problems are not out there.

They've always been where In your mind.

So change your mind.

Anyway, I feel like stopping here, but let me finish this.

The second one is word activated.

Tell your neighbor word activated.

I'll tell your neighbor again word activated.

So say it is done.

Sometimes you say things as if they will never be done, but say it as if it is done.

So let me give you an example quickly so that I can finish number three and we can tie up the message.

Ask your neighbor have you ever read the book of Ezekiel?

Some of them are wondering what?

Which book is this?

There's one time a preacher who stood up and said today I want us to turn to the book of Ezekiel, chapter three, verse four.

And my friends, people turned in their Bibles looking for Ezekiel.

And they looked for Ezekiel?

Of course Ezekiel doesn't exist.

Which book exists, ezekiel?

So don't be like that.

Ezekiel 37.

Ezekiel is in a value of dry bones.

Listen to what God tells them to do In this valley.

The Bible says around verse.

Let me pick it from verse three.

Verse three says he asked me, son of man, can these bones live?

I said sovereign Lord, you alone know.

Then he said to me do what?

Now that word prophesy is word activated.

Begin to speak to the bones.

Don't speak to God, speak to the bones.

There are some things you should stop telling God about Now.

Start speaking into the situation, because God has an answer for that situation, this vision.

The reason why we are talking about this vision is we want to talk about it and talk about it.

Talk about it, talk about it.

In the back of this book are declarations.

Declare those declarations over and over again, word activated.

Then he said to me prophesy to these bones and say to them so God gives him a script.

Now, god is amazing.

God wrote the script fast and they say tell the bones this.

Then he said to me prophesy to these bones and say to the bones Now how do you feel talking to bones?

You see, for Zekiah.

It was a serious nightmare For some of us just going to Langata cemetery.

That is already an issue.

The people have been buried there under.

They are just stones.

They are buried under and I know for some tribes even just seeing a dead body.

Then there are other tribes.

They sit with the body, talking to the body.

How could you leave us without telling us?

This is bad manners.

That is why, when you marry cross-culturally, especially if you marry people from central province and you marry in western province, my friend, you need to prepare yourself.

You need to be talking to your boyfriend and say how do they get buried?

Because these guys will talk to the bodies.

How could you leave?

In fact, you have my debt.

You could not have just left me without paying my debt.

You should pay my debt.

I don't know if you have ever heard stories of people who are being carried bodies and they stopped in Ayvasha.

The gary broke, so they have to pull the body out and talk to the body and say skisah, you are going, shaggs.

You cannot just make us stand here waiting.

Come on, we are going, shaggs.

Are you agree?

Nothing, witchcraft, they are just talking to the body.

Now imagine you are a wife married in that family.

Hey, and suddenly somebody says I am a skier, I am a fungheni box.

You start the car and it actually starts.

I say so now skier, let's skier.

And the people go.

Some of those things are nightmares because we have done some of those things.

Some of us are actually coming from that side, hallelujah.

That is why usually they take the body a day before barrio, because that particular day they are making sure they are talking to this body and making sure that whatever day needs he had and anything he needed to say before he died is said to the body.

For some of them it is part of mourning, hello.

Then the next day they bury and people are happy.

Hallelujah, he is talking to bones, jj, what is making you happy?

You think Ezekiel was from western Kenya.

That guy is talking to bones.

So let me finish this.

I don't know why we started this story.

Okay, here we go.

Then he said to me prophesy to these bones and say to them dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.

This is what the sovereign Lord says to these bones I will make bread enter you and you will come to life, and I will attach 10 bones.

Now imagine he is seeing all this, speaking to the bones 10 bones to you and make flesh.

Come upon you and cover you with skin.

I will put bread in you and you will come to life.

Then you will know that I am the Lord.

Now listen to her.

Seva.

So I did what Prophecy, spoke to these bones.

I didn't know what I was saying, but I spoke to the bones as I was commanded.

Now one of the scary things that was happening is this and as I was prophesying, there was a noise.

Now imagine you are in Kenya and something like that happens.

There was a noise In fact, it was not a small noise, a rattling sound and the bones came together, bone to bone.

Can you imagine?

The place is full of bones and you are in there as Carl comes from this side, lands on a neck bone on this side and takes the neck bone and the shoulder bone and the back bone and the pelvic bone and the femur bone and all those bones and you are seeing all that happen.

This is a horror movie.

I really feel for Ezekiel.

I do not want to be that prophet.

I did not mean to be a traitor.

I don't want to be a traitor, but let me tell you this there are some situations in your life that needs to be talked to.

Don't talk to God.

Talk to these bones.

Tell these bones you are going to shape up.

You are going to be in this order and not this order.

We are going to speak.

That is why we need to speak to this country and say you will be aligned to the purposes of God.

That is why we need to speak to judicial.

We need to speak to parliament.

We need to speak into these places and speak as we speak, they begin to align to the purposes of God.

We need to speak into our families.

We need to speak into our situations and circumstances and as we speak guess what?

There will be a rattling sound and it may scare you.

Things are shifting, moving.

You know, moving.

That is what I am saying.

This January, we have been speaking and speaking and speaking.

On Saturday there will be a movement.

Things will shift, things will move Because, let me tell you this, it says this after all those things had been done, look at the next verse, verse nine.

Then he said to me prophesy to who, to the breath, to the spirit, prophecy, son of man, and say to it this is what the sovereign Lord says calm, breath from the four winds and breathe into this slain that they may live.

So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them.

Let me tell you this Saturday the spirit will enter you, the anointing will enter you.

Something will shift in your life.

The breath entered them, they came to life and stood up on their feet.

Avast amen, I'm telling you, but it's word activated.

Tell your neighbor.

Word activated what was the first one?

Faith activated.

This one is what?

Say it as if it is done.

Then, finally, so that we can sort out this one, this one was a western, so tell your neighbor.

The third one is sound activated.

Sound is important.

Okay, so let me read this.

Jehoshaphat second chronicles, chapter 20, verse 20.

2 Chronicles 20:20

This is again.

They were facing three armies.

They were going to be destroyed by these three armies and the Bible says, hey, believe the prophet.

So let me read this verse.

Early in the morning, they left for the desert of Tekoa.

As they set out, jehoshaphat student say it listen to me, judah and people of Jerusalem, have faith in the Lord, your God, and you will be what Abhiel.

Have faith in his prophets and you'll be successful.

They look at this.

After consulting the people, jehoshaphat appointed men to do what?

To sing to the Lord and to praise him for the splendor of his holiness.

As they went out at the head of the army, can you imagine?

Singers are in front of the army Warriors.

You don't do that in military, but guess what Singers were there?

Because God needs sound to make things happen.

He says give thanks to the Lord for his love and yours forever.

And the Bible says as they began to sing and praise, the Lord sent ambushes against the men of Amon and Moab and Mount Sayah who were invading Judah, and they were defeated.

The Amonites and Moabites rose up against the men from Mount Sayah to destroy, and he let them.

After they finished slaughtering the men from Sayah, they helped to destroy one another.

Can you imagine that Total confusion?

Look at the next verse.

When the men of Judah came to the place that overlooks the desert and towards the vast army, they saw only dead bodies lying on the ground.

No one had escaped, all because of sound.

Somebody will need to make a sound.

What kind of a sound?

Shout, amen, tell your neighbor, shout, shout it as done.

Because, pastor Riggs, I believe this even before this month is over.

Somebody will have something to shout about.

Somebody will have something to shout about.

Yes, I believe it.

You're going to have something to shout about.

You better take it up there.

You're going to have something to shout about.

Right now it doesn't look possible, but you're going to have something to shout about.

Let me show you this verse.

It is up there Isaiah 55, verse 12.

Isaiah 55:12

After it talks about my thoughts are not your thoughts this and that?

Look at verse 12.

Verse 12 says this, because this is the sound effect.

It says this Isaiah 55, verse 12.

Isaiah 55:12

In Acuja, isaiah 55, verse 12.

Isaiah 55:12

It says you will go out in joy and be laid forth in peace.

The mountains and hills will burst into song before you and all the trees of the field will do what Will clap their hands.

There will be sound.

Psalms 47.

I'm finishing now.

Psalms 47, verse 1.

Psalms 47:1

This is a good verse, especially for those who go to churches that never clap their hands.

Now, this is a good verse, hello.

What does it say?

Now, some of us were in churches where nobody claps.

Memor too.

Can anybody sing that song without clapping?

Clap your hands, all you nations.

Shout to God with cries of joy.

Look at the next verse, for the Lord most high is awesome, the great king over all the earth.

He subdued nations and us people under our feet.

He chose our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob whom he loved.

He says you know, god has ascended a midwark.

Shouts of joy the Lord, amid sounding trumpets, a lot of noise.

Sing praises to God, sing praises, sing praises to our king, sing praises God loves sound.

Let me tell you this You'll have something to shout about, in fact, when you're not in the service, because sometimes people find it good to shout when they have many of you.

And, by the way, let me tell you this the reason why the Premier League and all those things make a lot of fun is because in the whole stadium, for 90 minutes, people are shouting and singing.

They're not playing the football, they are the shouters, they are the cheerleaders.

And let me tell you this we are the cheerleaders, the angels are the ones playing the game.

Come on somebody.

Yes, let the angels play the game.

We are doing what.

We are cheerleading them.

Say go for it Michael, go for it Gabriel.

Yes, go that one.

And even if you forget the name, just say Mo Salah, go for it.

That's not an angel, hello.

Let me read one more verse here before I finish.

Psalms 95.

I am excited.

Let me tell you this.

I'm looking forward to Saturday.

Something amazing is about to happen.

All right, here we go.

Psalms 95 as I prepare to release us.

Psalms 95.

95.

So begin to prepare your voices.

So I was saying before I read this, that when you are alone in Kwanumba, find opportunities to shout Go.

The neighbors may just come and carry you to hospital.

Say what are you shouting about?

My God is a good God.

That's what I'm shouting about.

God is good.

My miracle is on the way.

Psalms 95 as one.

Come.

Let us do what Sing for joy to the Lord.

Let us do what Shout how Allow to the rock of our salvation.

Let us come before Him with thanksgiving and he will stall Him with music and songs.

Why?

For the Lord is great.

He is the great God, the great King above all gods.

In His hand are the depths of the earth and the mountain peaks belong to Him.

The sea is His, for he made it, and His hands from the dry land Come.

Let us bow down in worship.

Let us kneel before the Lord, our maker, for he is our God.

We are the people of His pasture the flock under His care.

Let me tell you this when you read verses like this, would you be restrained not to shout?

Don't scare your neighbor.

But I'd like some shouts to begin to sound.

Just begin to shout, amen.

Do you know why we are shouting?

We are even shouting before the miracle happens, but we are shouting to attract the miracle.

For example, if suddenly you hear shouts up our west lands, people are shouting, so you'll be attracted to go find out what is happening.

Let me tell you this Begin to shout, your miracle is coming.

Begin to shout, your breakthrough is here.

Begin to shout, you know.

Begin to shout and bless the Lord.

Amen.

Now stand on your feet.

What was the first point?

Faith activated.

That means use your word Imagination.

Secondly, what does that mean?

Say it as done Right.

Speak the word.

Speak the word.

Speak the word.

You know.

Sometimes even tell your friends you see that place.

You see that place, I'll be working there.

I'll be working there.

I say are you out of your mind?

You tell them yes, I'm out of my mind.

I'm in Christ's mind.

Hallelujah, I'm out of my mind.

I'm in Christ's mind.

Watch this space.

Something good is about to happen.

There are new ideas that are coming your way.

You're going to download new ideas this month, things that have never been done before.

God is going to do as I pray.

Let me read this verse for you In Isaiah 48, verse 7, I've read it several times, but let me just read it once more as we pray Isaiah 48, verse 7, because God is going to create things today and is going to create them now.

Isaiah 48:7 Isaiah 48:7

Look at this verse.

It says this Isaiah 48.

It says when are they created?

When are they created?

Some of us think God created a criminalization of it to Genesis.

Some things God is waiting to create now.

They are created now and not long ago.

Your miracle is being created now.

We don't have to look for it.

God is creating it just for you, now.

They are created when Now Are not long ago.

You have not heard of them before today, so you cannot say yes, I knew of them.

You cannot say that because God is going to surprise you.

God has a surprise for you.

God has a surprise for you.

God has a good surprise for this nation.

It's a good surprise.

So be expectant.

Tell your neighbor you better become pregnant.

Just tell them, be expectant, expect America.

Somebody is saying I can't come here Expect America.

Somebody told me we need to move from opinions to beliefs, and we need to move from beliefs to convictions and we need to move from convictions to actions and we need to move from actions to a lifestyle.

I thought he said it very well, because some of us, our whole life, is opinions, opinions, and opinions shift depending on the day and depending on which team is playing that particular day.

But move your opinions.

Let the theme vision be more than an opinion, let it become a belief and then take it further.

Let it become a conviction and then make it become an action and let it become a lifestyle, a lifestyle.

About two years ago, even as I prepare a prayer, my wife Martha especially those after COVID and people had not been walking quite a bit so Martha got up and she started walking, Walking, walking, walking.

One time she told me how she walks about 6,000 steps a day.

I said what 6,000 steps a day?

Because me I didn't.

You never used to walk.

Walk, kitugani.

I walked most of my life in the Kewa Shulei.

I am not walking again.

So one time she challenged me and said why don't you try?

You just download the app.

You try walking.

So at the beginning it was an opinion.

So then let me try.

It is Martha's idea, let me try.

So we started walking and we'd walk in the estate.

Walk around in the estate, not some of these gated places.

So you walk around Every day, I walk around, I walk around, I walk around, I walk around, I walk around, I walk around.

Then I walked, I walked and I said I walked 6,000 steps and I started enjoying the walking.

Then Martha decided, hey, some days should walk, other days should not walk.

But for me, the opinion became a belief and then the belief became a conviction.

I told myself I will walk and I decided I will not walk less than 6,000 steps a day.

Let me tell you this I broke all the records that the app was talking about For two consecutive years.

I'm telling you, two straight years, no fail, whatever day it was, I have been walking more than 6,000 steps a day Until today.

Right now, let me tell you this Even if I have had a busy day and I have had most of my sitting allowance, sitting allowance means that you have been sitting and not walking.

You sat the whole day.

So when I'm leaving the service or I'm going, I check my app, I find I've only walked 300 steps.

Do you know?

I tell myself I must reach 6,000?

.

So when I reach home because it's now a conviction, martha, I'm not going to be able to walk.

My friend, it is no longer an opinion, it is beyond a belief, it is now a conviction.

For more than 700 days consecutively, without missing a day, monday to Monday, I have never stopped walking less than 6,000 steps a day To this day.

Somebody say, oh, it's not about slimming, and let me do this.

And I don't just walk.

No, while I'm walking, I'm praying.

So, as I'm walking, I'm just praying.

I'm praying in the spirit.

I'm praying in my own language, I'm praying in English.

I'm praying for you, I'm praying for the leaders and I'm walking, I'm praying in the spirit.

Hallelujah, jehovah, god, I bless you, I give you glory.

The other day, this guy meets me in this corridor and do not appear 6,000.

I was about to ask him go meet and be happy.

Let me tell you this there are some people who are going to begin to judge your convictions, and some of them are saved believers.

But let me tell you this the moment I reach the conviction, you don't look back, because after that it is an action and an action becomes a lifestyle, and I thank God that God has enabled me through all those years.

I have not broken my leg because that would have stopped me.

But, beyond walking, serve the Lord with conviction, hallelujah, even though those days when I was writing this team vision, I would still walk those 6,000 steps.

So look at your neighbor, tell your neighbor, go beyond opinions into beliefs, and your believing must become a conviction.

Your conviction must become an action and your action must become a lifestyle.

Take it Praise, oh man.

Now, for some of us, we have very interesting convictions.

Some of us, your conviction is to eat as much as you can eat.

Those are not good convictions.

Hello, just believe God.

You know I don't know if you have noted this time of prayer and fasting have you noted that this month people have been inviting you for lunches and you just told yourself Jehovah God, nishikilietta fathali.

But you decided I'm not eating.

You told my friend why are you bringing this?

Can you bring it in February?

In February, or just do it 28th, 28th?

But because you believe God, you have a lifestyle.

You have a lifestyle.

Did you learn something today?

Because today we are finishing that vision part.

Next week, when we come back, we are in another team Kingdom authority, hallelujah.

So get ready, something good is about to happen.

Faith activated, word activated, sound activated those three are key.

Shall we pray, father.

We thank you for your word.

And, lord, really, this word really excites me, because I know this vision that you have given us must become reality.

Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, being convinced of things we don't see.

And tonight, lord, as your people go, those watching us online as they sign out, father, I believe they're not just going to sign out, people are not just going to go home.

They have carried something that you have deposited in their spirit.

You have deposited in their minds Something that is going to direct them in the year 2024.

We have cast the vision and many of us have caught it, and then we are going to run with it, because this vision is for an appointed time.

Though it tarries, it shall surely come to pass.

In the end, it shall speak.

And so, my brothers and sisters, I pray that the Lord, indeed, will continue to unveil himself to you, even in the next months that we are entering into, because, lord, god Almighty, we have said we are not entering this year with blindness.

We're not entering this year with human insight.

We're not entering this year with unbelief.

We are entering this year with revelation.

And so, god, open our eyes that we may see wondrous things in your world.

And so, lord, the miracle is coming.

Just like David told Gona'ath you're finished, lord, we are telling Satan you're finished.

You are thinking.

The weapons you're fashion against us will not prosper in our lives.

The miracles we need, the provision we need, the open doors we need are already granted to us, and so far there is a release of people.

I know that some of them may have come discouraged, some of them may have come just needing a word, and they have received that word.

May they now run with that word, may they speak it, may they see it, may they shout about it Because, lord, I believe, indeed, as you give us those miracles, we're going to have something to shout about.

So, thank you for hearing our prayer and all glory goes back to you, father.

Thank you for using this servant of God to open your word to us today.

And, dear Lord, I've also received my portion, and I know every one of us has received their portion.

If you believe that, you better say I receive it.

I take it, it is my portion and there's nothing the devil can do about it.

And God's people say Amen, amen, amen, amen, amen, amen.

Okay, since you wanted to shout, why don't you just give God a big, big, big shout Amen, come on, let's give Him a big hand.

Let us clap our hands, come on somebody, bless Him.

Bless Him, he's a good God.

He's a good God.

Prophesy to your neighbor until your neighbor, there's a cup of tea coming and it is for you.

It is for you In Jesus' name.

In Jesus' name, now, lift up your hands as I bless us.

And now, in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, I decree this blessing upon you and I declare this May the Lord bless you.

May the Lord make His face to shine upon you.

May the Lord be gracious to you.

May the Lord do you good, and that which the Lord began in this month, may he accomplish before this month is over.

May the Lord bless you when you come in, bless you when you go out, bless you when you rise and when you sit down.

Indeed, this month, you're going to have something to shout about.

May the Lord bless you with something to shout about.

May the Lord increase your faith this month.

May the Lord open your imagination so you may see wondrous things in His Word.

Give this blessing in the name of the Father and in the name of the Son and in the name of the Holy Spirit.

And God's people say Amen, amen.

Now look at your neighbor.

Tell your neighbor.

Surely goodness and must say shall follow you all the days of your life and you yanny you.

Starting today, you shall dwell in God's favor, in God's blessing, in God's goodness, and there's nothing the devil can do about it.

You're blessed to be a blessing, your favored to be favorable.

You're lifted to lift others in Jesus' name, amen, amen.

Again we bless the tea and now I.

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit Be with us now and forevermore.

Amen.

Reach well, have a good night.
