Shall we stand, shall we all stand.

Please, let's all stand as we welcome Bishop as he comes.
-
Let's give God a big hand.
-
Let me say something just briefly before you sit.
-
You know I have been very privileged.
-
Yesterday we had a very good meeting with Bishop Kittotto.
-
You know I have been very privileged.
-
Yesterday we had Bishop Oginde speaking to us and he is my outgoing chair of Evangelical Alliance of Kenya and now the one who took over is here today, none other than Bishop Philip Kittotto, and we thank God for this opportunity.
-
And, by the way, we have had a lot of good fellowship with Kenyans, assemblies of God, from the time we left Ojijo Road coming to Westlands, and we really want to thank you for the support that you have given us and also just the journey walking together and such a joy to have you in our midst and he has been very busy, especially this past week, but for him to get time to be part of this celebration.
-
It is a great honor, bishop, and I know you're here with your wife and I know you will be introducing her, but let us give God one more big hand for what he has done in Jesus' name, amen.
-
Hallelujah.
-
May I request all of us to sit down, please.
-
I take this opportunity first of all to thank God for the gift of being alive.
-
The opportunity to be alive on this day is something I'm thanking God for.
-
We do not deserve to be here, but because of the grace of God, we are here.
-
The Lord has blessed us.
-
He has given us the air that we breathe.
-
We do not pay for it and that is something I do not take for granted, amen.
-
Secondly, I want to thank God for the senior pastor of this church and mama and your leadership team for allowing us to be here, inviting us, and I want to thank you, all the congregants, all the people here, brothers and sisters.
-
Thank you so much for accepting us to be here.
-
I was here many years ago and this is my second time to be here at Parkland's Baptist Church.
-
Amen.
-
And we thank God that, despite the clothes things that we wear, which are our denominations, like Parkland's Baptist Church, k-a-g, whatever church, those are just the clothes that we wear, but we all belong to God as His sons and daughters.
-
Amen.
-
And in heaven we will not have those clothes things, but God sees us as His children.
-
Amen.
-
And that's why I'm so grateful that you allowed us to be here, despite all those clothes things, because you recognize that we all belong to the King of Kings, the Father our Lord, jesus Christ.
-
Amen.
-
So I will pray and then I will let my husband speak.
-
Let's pray, our Father in heaven, we realize that we are a needy people.
-
We need you every day and even as we have worshiped you, my Father, we thank you that you have been with us and we have experienced your presence.
-
We want to thank you, lord, for the speaker of this service.
-
Lord, we know that he has prepared, but we ask your Holy Spirit to continually be with Him, rest upon Him.
-
And, lord, we know that you are touching His mind, you are touching His lips, that the Word that speaks to us, my Father, is right.
-
From your very own heart, lord, I pray that as we listen, you are going to open the eyes of our hearts, that we shall take in this Word and not just be hear us, but we shall be doers of this Word and, lord, that we shall bear fruit, fruit that will last.
-
Thank you, I bless you, I honor you, I worship you In Jesus name, I pray and believe.
-
Amen, thank you.
-
What a joy to be here and thank you for Sam Brose.
-
You've been a great friend for a long time.
-
For those of you who don't know that, sam, we actually didn't have a house in Parklands, but you gave us a house, you gave us a place to be.
-
So where ROG is on Ojiji Road is where you are, and you graciously, graciously, gave it to us for us to have a family in Parklands.
-
So thank you, thank you, thank you, and we've had a great relationship and I do thank God for it, because I do realize and I do know God is doing a great work and God is indeed an amazing God.
-
So thank you again to your leadership team, great men and women that I have met this morning, and I could see Pastor Simon, I could see the, but I'm not sure how to explain it.
-
I'm not sure how to explain it, I'm not sure, but I'm sure we come a long way with your pastors and I do love them daily and we have great fellowship.
-
This morning I was wondering why are you not?
-
Why were you born?
-
Why do you sit in the seat you sit?
-
Why do you wake up every morning?
-
Why do you struggle to do the things you do, and sometimes we work and worry and hustle about things that don't really make sense.
-
Yes, they make sense for now, for a season, and they are important for a little bit.
-
But really, why did God put you here or not?
-
Why did God want you to become a Christian?
-
Why did he send his son and allow him to down the cross for you and for me?
-
Why do you call yourself a Christian?
-
Why are you the believer that you are?
-
You see, friends, we live in a world that is full of pain, brokenness, a world that is full of hate, a world that seems not to understand each other.
-
But, you see, we remain a church, god's people who are here for God's cosmic plan.
-
Can I hear somebody say amen?
-
God has an amazing plan for the earth today, but he wants to use a people that are willing and ready for him.
-
Bill Hybo says that the church is the hope of the world.
-
How many believe that the church is the hope of the world?
-
Oh, come on Paakie.
-
How many of you believe that the church is the hope of the world?
-
How many of you believe that we are the hope of Kenya, that Kenya is not going to go down to the drains, because we are here for the church, we are the drains.
-
Because we are here, we are the owners of Kenya.
-
And God says when we stand in our place, we will impact this land for the kingdom of God.
-
But you see, I have found there are three mindsets in the kingdom.
-
There are those who are occupiers vis-a-vis those who are renters.
-
When somebody is renting a house, god just stays there.
-
He has no business to care for the house, he is just staying.
-
Are you just staying in the kingdom and enjoying the beauty of the house of the Lord but doing nothing?
-
God has called us to be occupiers, those who take dominion of our space, those who do battle to stay in charge.
-
Then there are those mindsets who are fruit bearers vis-a-vis consumers.
-
Bring it on, pastor.
-
Hallelujah, pastor, you are blessing me, pastor.
-
Oh, come on, faki.
-
Hallelujah.
-
Did you listen to the worship?
-
They did not practice.
-
You are but a consumer, a criticizer, a back bencher, a spectator, but you are never contributing into the space that God put you.
-
Bring it on, pastor.
-
You are blessing me, pastor, but when will you bless another?
-
When will you lift another from the dust?
-
And so when I tell my pastors I lead over 5,000 pastors in the assemblies of God, and I save them.
-
Pastors, see, we are not here for our own kingdom.
-
We are here for the kingdom of Him who called us, and you know what church.
-
That's why we are here or not.
-
We are here or not for Him and for His purpose.
-
The rest are details, the rest are, but we are here for Him.
-
So we have the occupiers vis-a-vis the renters.
-
We have the fruit bearers vis-a-vis the consumers.
-
Then we have the change makers vis-a-vis the maintainers of the status quo.
-
God doesn't just want you to get born again and head to heaven.
-
He wants you to get born again and make others get to know Him.
-
He wants you to get born again and lead others into the space of knowing Him.
-
See, there was this rich ruler who thought that he had it all.
-
He thought he had it all, he thought he had harvested, he thought that he had everything that the world could offer.
-
But in the end he realizes that God says to him you fool, my friend, let's not be fools in the kingdom.
-
Let's be those who are not just renters and consumers of the products of heaven, but let us be those who are fruit bearers and those who are changers, those who are change makers in our world today?
-
But then you will ask me today, how are change makers who are spirit empowered making the change?
-
How do I know that I begin to make a change?
-
See, the first thing I'm going to share with this morning is that we need to respond to God's call.
-
See, change makers begin by responding.
-
Those who make impact begin by responding.
-
And how many have been born again, hallelujah.
-
Yes, that's the first step of getting to know Him responding.
-
How many of us have had God speak this week, this week, through the many speakers that have been here?
-
Yes, that is it.
-
But you see, the seed has been planted, the seed has been.
-
You have responded to Him.
-
Who is going to make greater fruit from out of you?
-
You know Kenyans.
-
We are good farmers.
-
They say that we are an agricultural country.
-
So you get a seed.
-
The Bible says if the seed abides alone, if it does not fall into the ground and dies, it abides alone.
-
So, mama, I want to teach them how we plant maize.
-
Hallelujah, do you say amen here?
-
Hallelujah, amen, okay.
-
So you, what do you do?
-
First?
-
You get a germ and you do what?
-
You don't dig a hole, you dig the grave.
-
You dig a grave for your seed, say, dig a grave.
-
Then you bury the seed, you do maombolesi and you step on the grave and you go home knowing I will never eat you again.
-
I will never eat you again.
-
You are already in the ground, you are already buried.
-
I will never eat you.
-
You go home, you go away because it's buried.
-
One day, that seed says to itself there is a part of me that was never born to die.
-
I was born for life.
-
And it begins to fight through the darkness.
-
It begins to fight through the darkness, through the soil, and it's looking for one thing the light that makes life.
-
And finally it comes out and it sees the light and one day it brings out leaves and one day it has the crop growing.
-
Oh, my goodness, now we taste the fruit.
-
But I have a problem, pastor.
-
I have a problem.
-
I have a problem because, elachi, did you die?
-
Were you buried?
-
Are you really buried?
-
Because if we are dead with Christ, that fleshly thing is buried.
-
But there is this new man, this new woman that is now alive and walking with God.
-
But, my sister, why are you still going for somebody's husband?
-
I thought you died, I thought the flesh died.
-
Why are you hating?
-
Oh, paki, paki, paki, paki.
-
Am I preaching to myself?
-
Do you see these things around you?
-
I know you don't do them, but you see them.
-
I thought you were dead, but why?
-
Why the hate?
-
Why the corruption?
-
Why are we fighting the same sins that we were supposed to have left in the grave?
-
But you see, friends, when you respond to the call of God and you have died, you are no longer living for yourself.
-
You live for the one who died for you and it's coming back for you, and one day he will look at you in the face and he will say well done, good and faithful servant.
-
You see, friends, chuck Swindle says and reminds us that we are faced with many, with a series of great opportunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations.
-
Oh yes, there are the challenges we meet and then there are the opportunities we get.
-
To some of us, we cry and crave for the opportunities and when the opportunities come, god is no longer.
-
Oh.
-
We crave and cry, oh God, if only you could remove me from this challenge.
-
And then he does.
-
But where do you go?
-
You're never the impact maker, you're never the testimony teller.
-
You're consumed by the results and the things that come out of what you got.
-
See, god calls us to be those who make a difference, regardless of our circumstances.
-
See, the big question is can we respond and walk with him through those challenges that we go through in life?
-
See, according to Tony Evans, he says that God will meet you where you are in that situation, in that lack of a child situation, in that space where your marriage is not seeming to work so well.
-
God will meet you in that situation and then he will take you where he wants you to go.
-
But, you see, we want God to take us where we want to go, not where he wants to go.
-
See, whoever God called, he never took them where they wanted.
-
He took them where he had planned to take them.
-
When God met the fearful Moses, he had run away.
-
He had run away from being the deliverer of the children of Israel because he had killed.
-
So he ran away and was, I would call, a fugitive in a distant land.
-
And God meets him at the burning bush.
-
Say burning bush, and I love burning bushes, because this is where the fear of the, the fearful, the angry, the runaway meets the holy God.
-
And when he meets this holy God, the bush is burning.
-
He gets interested in the bush, but the bush does not consume anything.
-
But there is a voice that comes from the bush and he says stop not here, because where you are standing it is holy ground.
-
Remove your shoes, remove your sandals, remove your old ways.
-
We can never be impact makers if we still walk in the old ways, if we are dead, but we are alive.
-
We are cutting both worlds.
-
We are with us into the spaces where we need to make a difference.
-
Or if this altar, if this altar was still alive and they could speak and they could swallow oh, how many would be swallowed by the altars, by the fires of God.
-
But what a merciful God we have, what a gracious God we have.
-
He still gives us a chance to love on him, to fellowship with him and to discover a place again.
-
So he speaks with Moses.
-
He says remove your shoes.
-
And he does that and the voice of God comes and he says sends him to the very place he ran away from and he becomes the greatest crusader, the greatest leader.
-
Oh, how does he miss Joshua?
-
He missed Joshua and he was the assistant of Moses and friend.
-
It does not matter where you serve.
-
You could be an ire, you could be in the big office, you could be just a farmer, it does not matter, but God will meet you where you are, so he meets Joshua, remember, he gives them a people called Israel.
-
And these are people who, my friend, they were stubborn, they were difficulty, they were hard to lead of Moses, they were hard Simon, they were hard, difficult people, until God himself gets angry.
-
He doesn't get out of my way, moses.
-
I want to destroy these people.
-
It is Moses who comes to kill me.
-
Oh, oh God, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
-
You can't do this.
-
What will they say?
-
These are the people you worked so hard to get out of there.
-
Oh, god worked so hard to get you out of the club.
-
He worked so hard to get you out of the mess you are in.
-
He worked so hard, yes, day and night.
-
Some of you would never have left the club.
-
Oh, no, dabodiling, you would never would have left.
-
Oh, cheating on women, hey, hey, you would never have left.
-
Having a little, hey, oh, you would never have left.
-
But he was merciful, say, he was merciful to me, hallelujah, he was merciful to me and he rescued me.
-
They were disobedient people and Joshua's task was simple Lead them across the river, let them conquer the land and establish my worship there.
-
See, having been a man who accompanied remember this, he accompanied Caleb and the other spies to see the land.
-
Remember what Caleb says when they get back Caleb and Joshua were in the company of the good, the faithful, those who knew that their space needed change, those who knew that they didn't just go to spy the land and allow fear to consume them, that they were allowed to see what they need to possess.
-
Are you hearing me, paki?
-
That what you see doesn't become what you possess until you participate in the miracle.
-
And so Joshua and Caleb are standing on one side and they say no, no, no, no.
-
We are well able to take the land, no matter the giants, no matter those who are in there, they, no matter the armies, we are well able.
-
They saw opportunity in the challenge.
-
They saw their victory within their misery.
-
They could not take their misery to be the end of themselves.
-
They knew God is leading me somewhere.
-
Oh, with that pregnancy that you have waited for for years, it is a season.
-
You are going to have your breakthrough.
-
I have seen many ladies.
-
God give them breakthroughs.
-
13, 14 years, even that marriage that you have waited for, god gives breakthroughs.
-
I have seen a lady who waited for 45 years and God gave him a man.
-
And I officiated the wedding and I say it God, thank you for giving me the opportunity to do it.
-
There are many who have been in bed, but God is still the healer.
-
He heals.
-
I am one of them.
-
I couldn't jump on stage or lead anything or do anything, but he healed my legs, he healed my back, he made me stand and today I can testify that we have a living God that is able to heal.
-
So we are not here to just enjoy a weekend.
-
We are here to raise up an army.
-
We are here to tell Paki let's be an army in Westlands, let's be an army in Kenya, let's be an army in East Africa, let's take the nations for the Lord.
-
So they say to Moses yes, we are well able.
-
It is this man, joshua, who is in the company of who, of Moses and Caleb, that is given the duty to cross over the children of Israel to do the same thing face the same giants, face the same giants.
-
He had said with his mouth we are well able.
-
My friend, your confession is as important as your victory, because when you confess that God is able, he will use you and you will become the prophesier of the good things to come in your life.
-
Joshua becomes the one to lead them.
-
He leads them across the river, he helps them to conquer the land.
-
The second thing I want to share this morning is not just the call, but position yourself.
-
Position yourself for effectiveness.
-
Position yourself, position yourself, see friends, three things here in positioning ourselves are a key for us if we are to be able to do the things of God.
-
One position yourself where God can reach you and use you to impact your world.
-
Position yourself.
-
I want you all to just be honest with me.
-
Where are you positioned right now?
-
See, when you go home, where will you be positioned?
-
Don't worry about your house, but worry about the noise and the things that the devil begins to bring around you, to crowd you, to take away your attention, such that even in the moments when you have come with this good word and God is saying you are an effective impact maker, you are one that is able to change your situation, but you still can go down and not listen because there's too many voices.
-
I pray that God will give you ears to hear, eyes to see and a belief to always know he never leaves us or for sex us.
-
He's the one who say to David I will prepare a table for you in the presence of your enemies.
-
He didn't say I will prepare a table when your enemies have gone, but I will prepare and you will eat in the presence of your enemies.
-
Do remember the same God that David says to.
-
He says you are my shepherd.
-
He says to him even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me.
-
Position yourself where you can have that understanding.
-
No God, believe in God and have this faith within you that he is the same yesterday, that he is the same yesterday, today and forever, and he will do what he said he will do.
-
Position yourself where God can reach you.
-
For many young people today, they're in chat rooms.
-
If you're not careful, god can't reach you in those chat rooms unless there's a pastor who says I'm ready to be in the chat room and many have joined.
-
What pastor was praying against?
-
Many of our young people, many of our boys and girls.
-
They are being stolen by the evil one and today we are saying this is our year and our moment of breakthrough.
-
Our children will not be stolen again.
-
Our children will not be stolen again, our grandchildren will not be stolen again.
-
Kenya will not go to LGBT, kenya will not go that route because we, the people of God, we will pray, we will preach, we will impact our world and we will go to our schools and we will preach to those young people in the schools and we will have mentors go to those schools and they will give themselves, because Pakeh and the pastor don't have all the money to hire all the pastors.
-
But all of us become pastors, hallelujah.
-
All of us are going to the schools, to the colleges, to the primary schools and everywhere, and we are saying hear you the word of God, see, friend, there is only one way we can defeat LGBT is by men and women coming back to God and being disciple to know him.
-
There's only one way we can beat corruption it's not by living a double life, it is by committing to the living God.
-
So we will have discipleship groups all over this town, because Pakeh is alive, because Pakeh is holding the torch, because Pakeh is saying my neighborhood, I am taking it for Jesus.
-
My neighborhood, I'm taking it for the living God, I'm going to open my home.
-
I'm going to open my home.
-
It's going to be a home of impact.
-
Are we together?
-
Pakeh?
-
Yes, we are going to have over a thousand small groups all over, because Pakeh has said we are going to host over 50,000 people in these small groups.
-
Thank you, pastor Ambrose's house is too small, too small to even hold a few.
-
So we're going to hear their impaliment, hallelujah, hallelujah.
-
We're going to hear their in the embassy, hallelujah.
-
They're in the justice system, hallelujah.
-
They're just creeping slowly and changing things and making sure that the living God is alive in those spaces.
-
Matthew, chapter 16 and verse 25,.
Matthew 16 chapter mention
-
Whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses it for my sake will find it Like Joshua.
-
He put his life on the line.
-
Will you put yours on the line so that you can be a changemaker?
-
See, joshua had to overcome three enemies.
-
One enemy he needed to overcome is doubt.
-
Remember how God says to him I will be with you, I will be with you.
-
I will be with you as I was with Moses.
-
I will be with you.
-
Yes, it's OK to fear, but it's more important to know that God is with you in the midst of your fears.
-
Enemy number two was intimidation.
-
Joshua and Caleb were never intimidated by the armies that were in the land.
-
They were never intimidated.
-
They knew our God is well able.
-
So Paquilus said together my God, come on, paquilus, my God is well able.
-
Say it again.
-
My God is well able.
-
Say again my God is well able.
-
Now I want you to add your difficulty in that well able.
-
Like for me, I will say my God is well able to win many souls, because that is my concern, the concern of my heart.
-
So will you say you as say my God, say it again, my God is well able.
-
Now, say your thing.
-
Nobody say anything.
-
You know our confession is important For you who need babies, so long as you are married and you have a husband legally.
-
So you know you can command here and say you know what.
-
My God is well able to remove anybodiesness.
-
My God is well able to heal this back.
-
My God is well able to heal these legs, hallelujah.
-
My God is well able to give me a job, hallelujah.
-
So our confession is important.
-
Don't be intimidated by the situation.
-
Intimidate the situation with prayer, intimidate the situation with your confession.
-
Sadly, the enemy of rejection, joshua, knew that he was a leader, but he came to a time with the children of Israel.
-
In Joshua, chapter 24 and verse 15, because there seem to be such a rebellious people, and he faces them and he reminds them of the faithfulness of God.
Joshua 24 chapter mention
-
And he tells them in verse 15, and if it is evil in your eyes to serve the Lord, choose ye this day, whom you will serve.
-
He is ready to stand alone.
-
He is not ready to be intimidated.
-
He says even if I'm rejected as the leader of this group, I am going to stand for what is right.
-
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
-
I need to see some ladies who are proud of being virgins and who are proud of waiting for their day to consummate their marriage.
-
Tell this man, look at them in the face and tell them if you are not going to serve God and you're not going to go to church and get born again and I see from your fruit that you are a believer you will not test my body.
-
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
-
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
-
We have to be so resolute, so resolute, so resolute, yes, and so focused on the God we serve for him to do the miracle.
-
You tell this one lady in our church.
-
She said, god, I'd not sleep with a man.
-
There are many coming.
-
She was very beautiful, by the way.
-
She's still very beautiful.
-
She said I will not sleep with a man.
-
I will not take a man to my father and my mother who is not going to marry me.
-
I will have to have a conviction that they will before I do so.
-
She said no to so many men and she said the man who will be born again, serving with me in the church, I will walk with them on that aisle.
-
And, lord, may I see my day when I walk down that aisle with that man.
-
That's what she said At year 35, she was walking down the aisle because I knew her story.
-
I cried as she walked down the aisle.
-
There are businesses here going to be born out of pain.
-
There are jobs going to be born out of here, out of pain, because there's you who is going to say I will not corrupt, but God is going to open the door.
-
I will not corrupt, but God is going to give me the business, and so may God do, according to your confession in Jesus' name.
-
She calling demands that we stand for the truth.
-
Thirdly, be empowered for impact.
-
I want to bring two considerations here.
-
The spirit led in a change must lead to an outer demonstration of a changed life.
-
So if we are truly changed by the spirit on the inner man, we must see a demonstration of a changed life outside actions, because that is what impacts the world around us.
-
That's why Matthew 5 and verse 14.
-
It says let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
-
It is the works that they will see that will either hinder people or will allow people to begin to see the works of God in your life.
-
So remember with me when God then said to Joshua I'm going back and forth in these scriptures when he said to Joshua, I have delivered Jericho into your hands.
-
The strategy he gives him seems so simplistic.
-
I want you to remember with me.
-
The task was so difficult, was so heavy.
-
Remember that the gateway city to this land was surrounded virtually by an indestructible wall.
-
Jericho was impenetrable, and your conditions and our conditions today and the world we live in may appear so difficult to penetrate and to bring the gospel, but there is a God who already has a strategy and the strategy is best in three things A, b, c.
-
Admit your asena, believe in your heart that Jesus died on the cross for you and confess with your mouth.
-
As simple as that and with prayer, we are going to turn the multitudes.
-
There's a gentleman I met who was taking me to the airport and he had this big Mercedes.
-
I've never entered in my life.
-
I entered once.
-
I don't know whether I'll enter again.
-
Humongous.
-
And you enter in.
-
You're being ushered like a king.
-
Inside there there is a TV, there is a, there is a dining area.
-
You are driving to the airport like a king.
-
I wish the airport was one day away.
-
And this guy came at the hotel and he said are you, bishop Ketoto?
-
I said yes, sir.
-
He said please come in.
-
He took my bags.
-
He ushered me in like a king.
-
Now, when I looked at this man, he had tattoos everywhere.
-
Tattoos on everywhere, even on his shoes.
-
He had bare arms because it was in summer and they were full of snakes and ladders and everything.
-
Man, he was tattooed in the face.
-
He had rings everywhere.
-
Are you with me?
-
So he, he, he starts taking us and he says oh, bishop, I'm so, so sorry, I'm sorry, I was late a little bit.
-
My wife, I told my wife to wake me up and this you know, my lady, my lady, she went to cooking.
-
She's a good lady anyway.
-
She went cooking and before I realized my time was gone.
-
So he was busy talking and I said, oh, but aren't you happy?
-
At least she cooked for you and the kids?
-
He said, oh, yeah, she's a good woman.
-
And then, as we continue to talk, she said you know, she, she goes to church.
-
Me, I don't go to church, I'm an atheist, I don't believe in God and I've told her I can't step in church.
-
And I said why?
-
He said oh, yeah, I know this God has.
-
He's the one who made me get back in my car.
-
It was being taken away by auctioneers and God just gave me a hook.
-
So I say to him oh, if God removed your car from the auctioneers, so why don't you think about loving him?
-
So we got to talk with him Within 30 minutes.
-
This gentleman, huge, well-built, he must be some kind of a weightlifter.
-
He was so well-built he begins to cry.
-
That's good, pastor.
-
That's so good.
-
That's so good.
-
Nobody has told me that.
-
I thought this guy's going to cause an accident.
-
I said, please don't stop crying.
-
But I knew the Holy Spirit was on him and the Holy Spirit was driving this car.
-
So I let him cry and he would go.
-
He looks for the tissue paper.
-
He can't find it and the tears were rolling, falling onto his trousers.
-
By the time we got to the airport, this fool of tattoo and ringsman had known Jesus as his Lord and Savior.
-
See, friends, it does not matter.
-
It does not matter.
-
Jericho may be shut, but we have a God that says we are more than conquerors.
-
Oh, let me say it again we are more than conquerors.
-
I didn't just come to whip you up.
-
I came here to remind you of a great principle and that God, your God, who lives inside you, is the conqueror.
-
Amen.
-
See, change makers.
-
They know that God's strategies don't need human strength and effort, as R55 and verse 8 to 9 says, for my thoughts are not your thoughts and my ways are not your ways.
-
God works in mysterious ways, in ways that are only God's.
-
And secondly, change makers know that they are empowered to bring change and that's why Joshua moves with power to create the change and open up the door for the city.
-
See, friends, by changing the way you look at things, you gain insight and a fresh perspective on who God is.
-
So when we change our thinking on who God is and what he says, we can do.
-
Extraordinary things will happen.
-
See, as believers, we know that Mark John, chapter 15 and verse 16 is true because it says we were chosen by him and appointed by him.
John 15 chapter mention
-
We were not chosen by man to follow some God, but he.
-
God, chose us to serve him and to follow him, to go and bear much fruit, and fruit that will last.
-
I love the scripture in 2 Peter.
-
Is it there?
-
Can you just put that scripture?
-
Only Just make it so good.
-
Okay, shall we all stand for a moment?
-
I request you, please.
-
Okay, I want us to read that scripture as though we have never read it before.
-
Shall we go?
-
So his divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life.
-
Did you hear that?
-
Can you go back again?
-
His divine power has given.
-
Who has given?
-
Okay, can you remove us and put yourself?
-
Put your name.
-
His divine power has given Ketoto everything he needs.
-
Oh, for a godly life through our knowledge of him, who has called us by his own.
-
And what Will you celebrate, god?
-
Will you celebrate God?
-
Please be seated.
-
Turn to your neighbor.
-
Tell them you're a powerhouse.
-
Can you tell them again you're a powerhouse?
-
Tell them again you're a powerhouse.
-
What is the point here?
-
That there is a God who lives inside us.
-
There is a God who said when my spirit comes upon you, you will never be the same again.
-
You will go out and you will become my witnesses in all the nations.
-
Romans, chapter 8 and verse 11.
Romans 8 chapter mention
-
Then Paul adds and he gives us such a powerful scripture and he said if the spirit listen to this church if the spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, oh, are you getting this?
-
He's asking you.
-
It's all suggesting if the spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead and wanted to realize Jesus was in the grave, for how long, what was covering that grave and who was guarding that grave and what was expected of that grave.
-
This guy was supposed to rot in the grave, according to those who put him there.
-
But if the spirit of him who broke that seal, who removed that big stone and who kicked life into the body of Jesus and who made Jesus walk out, hallelujah, if that same spirit is in you, if that same spirit church is in the church today is machanigan namanini, namanini nyesu, peke nyesu kende nyesu.
-
Only If the spirit of him who raised Jesus Jesus was raised from the dead by God's power and that same power lives in you and me.
-
And then he says will he also give life to your mortal bodies because of the spirit who lives within you?
-
Will he not bring life where there is death?
-
Will he not cause miracles to begin to happen where there is barrenness?
-
Will he not open doors where the devil had closed doors?
-
Will he not make a way if the spirit of him who raised Christ from the dead and by the spirit of God Ezekiel, is carried I'm coming towards the end now it's carried by the spirit of the Lord into this big valley.
-
And this valley has many bones and they are dry bones.
-
There is no life in the bones.
-
I don't know how difficult.
-
Every situation could be such that it could be so dry that the bones are knocking on each other and there is dust flowing.
-
You can imagine that the valley was so full the Bible says so full of these dry bones.
-
And he takes Ezekiel through this and he sees the spans of it, he sees the dryness of it, and then he poses a question to him.
-
He says to him can this bones live?
-
If the spirit of him who raised Christ from the dead is in us, we are well able to bring life into the dry bones and in the man of God.
-
I don't know what he was thinking at that particular moment.
-
I don't know whether he was taken by surprise at an all-knowing God asking mortal man a question like this.
-
God, the Almighty, could even look at your situation now and he's asking you, maybe directly or from people will you ever get out of here?
-
Look at the situation and the teller in the eye.
-
Even if you want to be safe, be like Ezekiel.
-
Only God knows, only sovereign God knows.
-
And when he says that God doesn't leave it there, he doesn't want you to remain in a place where you are a spectator to him doing this great thing.
-
He says to him prophesy to the dry bones.
-
Speak life into those bones, speak freshness into that situation.
-
Oh, yes, walk into that office.
-
That boss is so difficult.
-
But go in the morning, hallelujah, when everybody has not come, and begin to declare Father, your servant lives here, hallelujah, oh, this will be the place of the living God.
-
Oh, we refuse that.
-
In Jesus' name, give him joy and kindness and peace.
-
May you make him be so full of joy this morning.
-
Saturate that office with prayer.
-
If that business is not doing well, just walk very early in the morning and say God, this is Bogdan, these things that I say they are going to sell today.
-
Father, because you are the one who brings all those who come to buy.
-
You cost them to jump from one curse, from one supermarket to another.
-
You are going to cost them to jump many supermarkets today.
-
And come to this one of mine.
-
Are you hearing me?
-
We have to be prophetic enough in the situations of our life.
-
We must be prophetic enough in the situations that we face so that we can create impact, bring forth fruit that will last.
-
I went to this church and I am preaching.
-
The Holy Spirit just tells me yes, you have preached a good word.
-
I want to create some deliverance right now.
-
He said to me there is a lady here, a couple here.
-
They have been waiting for this many years and they don't have a child.
-
I said to God, this is an old white church.
-
I don't see any blacks here other than me.
-
What are you trying to do?
-
You want me not to be invited here again?
-
You see, fear came into me and when Ezekiel looked, he had to look with the eyes of faith.
-
So I uttered the words Before I thought about it twice.
-
I uttered them and said who is that that has been waiting for a baby?
-
And the only person that stood up, the only couple that stood up, was the pastor for the youth.
-
Can you imagine?
-
Everybody knows him and everybody has been praying for him.
-
This African says God wants to do.
-
How many people have prayed and have said what is going to be different with you, african?
-
And I felt certain intimidation.
-
But I had already spoken the words and he was standing right there and God says prophesy again that there will be life.
-
See, god is the one who is at work.
-
He uses us as his instruments and all we do is to say God, use me, that you may do what you want to do.
-
Two years later, I was told there's a team from this church that was coming, and can you imagine when I learned that it is the same church and that the senior pastor was coming and his wife, you can imagine how I felt.
-
I was terrified Because nobody had told me what had happened.
-
I was terrified.
-
And when they came, that pastor came to me and told me do you remember me?
-
I said I can't remember you and I was genuine, because we blacks look alike to Muzungus and Muzungus look alike to us.
-
So I just thought, man, who is this?
-
So they said to me we are the pastors from the church where you prayed for us to get a child.
-
I said okay, and they said we got twins.
-
See, friends, listen to this.
-
Even in your fear, even in your doubting, your doubting of yourself and the gifting of God upon your life, the father is still going to do.
-
If you obey, he will walk through you.
-
If you say yes, lord, he will move through you and through your neighborhood.
-
If you just say yes, lord, I am here, be like Mary and say I am your servant.
-
At the end of the story of Ezekiel, god had a purpose in bringing Ezekiel through all this and he reveals to him this was about the restoration of the children of Israel.
-
And I believe God will take you through those dry situations of life because he wants to do something.
-
And God in the end begins from chapter 37, verse 11 to 14, of Ezekiel.
-
He says to him that he wanted to speak into the hopelessness of Israel.
-
He wanted to deliver Israel and he wanted to be their sustainer.
-
He says I will put my spirit in you and you will leave and I will settle you in your own land.
-
God begins to do the amazing things because Ezekiel obeyed God.
-
I pray that we shall be obedient to the voice of God today.
-
So sweep our heads for a moment.
-
You could be here and you are walking away from God.
-
You've never given your life to him, you have not been living right with God and you want to respond to his call and say to him God, I come afresh to you, I want to rededicate my life to you that I may live for you.
-
Because that's where it begins, with those who make an impact.
-
Put your hands up and say I'm here and don't care about anybody who is there.
-
Thank you for those hands.
-
Put it up like this Put it up, put it up, thank you, thank you.
-
Put it up.
-
Put it up, jesus, I'm here.
-
I'm here.
-
Thank you for those hands.
-
Put it up, just keep it up.
-
We believe in God.
-
We know that we serve a God who cares, a God who is with us all the way, at the back.
-
Shoot it up.
-
Tell God I'm here.
-
I've never known you.
-
I've been running away.
-
I want to be your child again, so would you put your hand up again?
-
Just put it up again, don't be afraid, thank you, thank you.
-
Let's say this prayer to those many whose hands are up.
-
Let's all say this prayer together Lord Jesus, today I confess you as my Savior.
-
Today, write my name in the book of life.
-
Guide me to live a holy life and to be pleasing to you in Jesus' name.
-
Amen.
-
Let's celebrate those who are God and born again.
-
Hallelujah, and I believe, our ashes.
-
You have seen those hands.
-
You can help them after the service to know how it happens here at Pakee, second prayer I want us to make today so your breakthrough will come through your prayer and your declaration.
-
How many believe that?
-
Through your prayer and your declaration?
-
So let's be those who believe in the Spirit enough and those who are pentecostal in our heart enough to believe in a God who rescues us and who has washed us and who is doing miracles today and whose spirit is in me.
-
I want us to make a declaration right now, for ourselves and for the situations that we face, before we make a declaration of our impact in the world around us.
-
So will we stand?
-
Please, all of us, put your books down, put your phone down, put it in your pocket.
-
Don't let it disturb you when it rings.
-
Don't even touch it again.
-
We are going to spend a season here.
-
We were led in prayer by Pastor Simon, but I want us to now pray for ourselves and make those declarations.
-
No playing of instruments.
-
All the worshipers must reach out to God the same way.
-
Then we are going to come and worship Everybody.
-
I want you to be impacted by God right now.
-
Let's lift our hands to Jesus.
-
Let's keep our hands to Him.
-
Don't be tired, don't be afraid.
-
So just begin to pray right now.
-
Begin to ask God, god, I come in the name of Jesus.
-
I come in the name of Jesus.
-
Raise up your voices right now, father.
-
I come in the name of Jesus.
-
I come in the name of Jesus.
-
I know I'm purified by the blood of Jesus, I am made whole again by the blood of Jesus and it's through that blood that I enter the Holy of Holies.
-
Right now I declare holiness for my life, I declare breakthrough for my life, I declare breakthrough for my marriage.
-
I declare breakthrough through my sickness.
-
Right now, father God, I come again in sickness of every kind that has inflicted my body.

Keep praying, church.

Keep praying, keep declaring for yourself.
-
Tell the devil to move away, because God is the one you are running to.
-
Run to God.
-
Be like Hannah.
-
Be like Hannah who all cried her tears.
-
She cried her tears.
-
She said oh Father, if only you can remember me, if only you can give me this baby.
-
Cry to the living God.
-
And even though the man of God thought Hannah was drunk, hannah was crying to the living God.
-
Hannah was saying God, I'm here.

God, hear me.

Arise in Kenya and defeat every evil.

-
There is no God like you.
-
Let us, right now, cry for our children.
-
Let's cry for our children, let's cry for our teenagers, let's cry for those the devil is stealing and taking away in all kinds of evil.

Oh, father, we call our children back in the mighty name of Jesus.
-
We call them back into the church, we call them back into the witness, we call them back to hear the good news.
-
Oh, mighty God, from all the dens that they have gone into, all the dens that they are hiding into, all the Abmehanderatis and all the witchcraft and all the evil and all the drugs and the substance abuse that they are eating.

-
Here is my breakthrough.
-
O God, oh, celebrate your breakthrough.

Celebrate the breakthrough that God is bringing for Parklands Baptist Church.
-
Celebrate the living God.

Tell Him my God, I celebrate you, I thank you, my God.
-
There is no God like you.
-
There is no God like you.
-
Now, father, we lift up our hands again to say thank you, to say thank you.
-
Thank you because we will never be the same again.
-
Thank you because our children will never be the same again.
-
Thank you because our husbands, our wives will never be the same again.
-
Thank you that our bosses will never be the same again.
-
Thank you that our politics will never be the same again.
-
We bring them under the subjection and the control of the power of the living God.
-
We know Kenya will never be the same again.
-
Yes, there may be economic difficulties, but you supplied manna in the wilderness and you will supply according to our needs and according to your riches in glory.
-
So supply to the needs of your people.
-
And now.
-
May God bless you, may God keep you.
-
May God take you out in victory and bring you back in victory.
-
May God create a way where there is no way.
-
May God make possible what was not possible.
-
May he lift His banner over you.
-
May he lift His banner over you.
-
May he celebrate over you in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
-
May God bless you.
-
Brother Sifier, somebody say wow.
-
Somebody say, yeah, god is in our midst.
-
I believe there are breakthroughs that are happening right now in Jesus name.
-
You have no idea how God is working so hard to get to you and God has come because of your prayers.
-
Bishop Ketoto, we celebrate the Word of God that God has brought through you.
-
Why don't we celebrate the bishop he talked about?
-
Nothing happens unless you respond to the call.
-
The Bible says and God has called.
-
He calls many times and one time he said who will go for us?
-
Who will I send?
-
And Isaiah said here I am, send me.
-
And you know we are talking about impact.
-
We are talking about being world changers.
-
Impact make us and the message has come so clearly and I believe, wherever you are, and even those watching us online, you are saying here I am, send me.
-
You may not have a pulpit, but you have a space that God can come into.
-
And for some of you who have been coming through the week, those words are being repeated again and again that we have to give God our lives, our spaces, our children, our workplaces, everywhere, and I believe that miracle has started now.
-
Are there world changers in the house?
-
Are there impact makers in the house.
-
Are there change makers in the house?
-
Look at your neighbor and tell your neighbor.
-
If you are not, that change maker, I am one of them, hallelujah.
-
So why don't you give God a very big hand and just celebrate, just before we release you?
-
There's something he said about the valley of dry bones and I want to say this as he has prophesied and as he has spoken, god has entered into your valley of dry bones.
-
Hallelujah, god has entered into your valley of dry bones.
-
And just like he asked Ezekiel, son of man, can these bones live?
-
And Ezekiel said Lord, you are the one who knows.
-
Then he said I want you to participate in this miracle.
-
I really like that.
-
God wants you to participate.
-
God is not a magician.
-
Let me say that again.
-
God is not a magician.
-
God wants you to engage with him in that miracle.
-
He wants you to participate in that miracle.
-
And I know that as we come to the culmination of revival season, this revival is not over that now.
-
God wants your participation.
-
God wants your engagement.
-
God wants your mouth so that you can prophesy.
-
God wants your eyes so that you can see.
-
God wants your ears so that you can hear his voice.
-
God wants your feet so that he can take you where you need to go.
-
God wants your hands so that you can receive the instructions that he has for you.
-
You're a world changer.
-
I'm saying you're a world changer.
-
I'm saying you're a world changer.
-
I'm saying you're a world changer.
-
And so we are going to give the devil a notice.
-
We're going to give God such a big shout that it is going to be a notice to Satan that we are coming to take territory.
-
We are coming to take territory in Jesus' name and I want to go.
-
I'm going to count one, two, three.
-
By the time I reach three, we are going to give God such a shout of victory.
-
It will give Satan notice that we are coming his way and we are taking over.
-
I'll tell your neighbor taking over.
-
I'll tell your neighbor taking over Hashtag occupied.
-
One, get ready.
-
Two, three.
-
Those are the shouts of victory, not just to Satan, but to your situation, to your problems.
-
The walls of Jericho are coming down.
-
I'm saying the walls of Jericho are coming down.
-
The walls of Jericho are coming down.
-
Come on, come on, come on.
-
You will never be the same again.
-
You're a world changer.
-
You know, as Bishop was speaking.
-
You know, sometimes when you are in the spirit, you say a lot of things, just like that situation when God put a word in his spirit that somebody who doesn't have a child will have a child.
-
You know, sometimes when you are in that empowerment, you say things like that until later, when you start thinking about it, you start wondering was I sure I was saying what I said?
-
But you know, even when you feel intimidated, you feel scared, you are in doubt.
-
God is not a man that he should lie.
-
He's not a son of man that he should change his mind.
-
Has he said, will he not do it?
-
Has he spoken?
-
Will he not fulfill it?
-
And the declarations you have made?
-
As you walk through that gate, don't begin to get scared, because God will do his word.
-
God will fulfill his purpose because he said he'll make it happen.
-
If you believe that, you better give God another big hand and tell him yes, lord, yes, lord, yes, lord.
-
You know God is able to do exceedingly abundantly.
-
Above all that you ask, or imagine how many of you believe that God can change Kenya With all the challenges and situations we have.
-
God said ask me for the nations and I will give them to.
-
He said nations, not just one nations.
-
If he can handle the nations, can he handle one?
-
So we are going to give a shout for Kenya in a moment, because God can turn and he's going to turn this nation around.
-
I'm going to count from three to one and then we shall shout for Kenya's victory Three, two, one.
-
Yes.
-
What's the Simon?
-
This place is shaking here.
-
I don't know if it is shaking where you are, and as I am about to tie this up, we should talk about the children, and this was said to us this week, that we are taking back our children and their children in our house.
-
Right now, if you're near a child, just place your hand upon that child and say this one belongs to Jesus.
-
Now, I'm not asking you to put your hand on your wife, I'm just saying if there is a child next, this one belongs to Jesus, hallelujah, okay.
-
Now put that hand on those children one more time and say this one belongs to Jesus, this one belongs to Jesus.
-
Now.
-
Some of you are putting your hand on your girlfriend and things like that.
-
I'm saying children.
-
Now are we all children?
-
Okay, okay, we're all children.
-
So put your hand on somebody and say this one belongs to Jesus One more time this one belongs to the kingdom of God.
-
Satan, get your hand off this one, because this one belongs to Jesus.
-
Now give a big shout for that person in Jesus name Hallelujah, glory, glory, glory, glory, glory, glory.
-
Our youth, our youth, belong to Jesus.
-
Our youth belong to Jesus.
-
Our youth belong to Jesus.

-
Our fathers belong to Jesus.
-

-
Our president belongs to Jesus.
-

-

-
Bless his holy name, amen.
-
Now I would like to ask you carry, carry, okay, listen to me, carry this shout to your homes.
-
Carry this shout into the transport you're going to take.
-
And if you're in number three and you start shouting, they might throw you out.
-
But remember you are taking over.
-
Tell your neighbor I'm taking over.
-
Tell your neighbor I'm taking over.
-
Tell your neighbor we are taking over.
-
In Jesus name, Amen, I'm about to pray and just release us into God's hands and bring this celebration to a release so that we can go.
