The Principles of Spiritual Fervency (Prayer 2)

Don't be left in the dark. Get proper understanding of life

through the Word of God. My people perish for lack of

knowledge. The Word of God is an

illumination which gives direction.

Remain placed as Reverend was far alone.

Illuminates your mind with the Word of God with all simplicity

and clarity. Basic precautions the

spiritually fervent believers most observe last week precisely

because we need to reiterate and take our bearing from where we

stopped last week we studied extensively about a man that was

simply introduced to us in first kings 13 verse one as the.

Man of God. A man of God and nobody will

care whether it was young or old, because if you mean a man

of God that is delivering excellently well on his

ministry, you won't want to care whether it's young or old.

It's just been a blessing to your life.

So nobody will care the way it was introduced in verse one and

behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of the

Lord unto better. So he's a man of God.

He has the word of God. So nobody would care, like I

said, whether he was young or old until his juvenile actions.

So clearly that he was a young inexperienced prophet that was

easily swindled, deceived and destroyed by an envious,

malicious old prophet. I pray again over your life and

over your destiny that you will not forfeiting of seniors

spiritual predators in the name of Jesus because there is no

better. Word to.

Describe that old prophet that deceived the young prophet.

That is senior predator is never a pastor.

You will not mistake a predator for a pastor in the name of

Jesus. And the emphasis that we made

that last week is to let us know that spiritual fervency must be

matched with spiritual maturity, otherwise it becomes

counterproductive. So we put emphasis on moderation

in living a life that is spiritually fervent.

And of course, maturity more often than not is considered as

a function of experience. But from the study of that

dynamic, young, vibrant, spiritually fervent prophet,

it's very obvious that maturity is not just a function of

experience. Exposure also matters a lot.

What do I say matters a lot? Let's poem.

And of course, whether you have attained maturity or not, your

composure will reveal it. Your composure will reveal it.

So for today, we are taking precautions that will help you

to moderate your spiritual life and be excellent in your fifth

practice #1 is to know yourself inside out.

Know yourself inside out. The scripture expect us to have

a considerable knowledge. Of our self.

Corinthians 13 verse 5 The scripture says examine yourself,

whether you be in faith. Prove your own.

Selves, the key aspect to it is the one that follows, no?

Ye not your own selves now from here it's.

Very, very clear that the scriptures expect us to have a

considerable basic knowledge of ourselves.

So know yourself. Among other things, we help you

to tame your temperament and tame your tongue as especially

vibrant believer you are carrying power and as a need for

you in exercising. The power of God.

There's a need for you to avoid the error of the sons of

Thunder. Let's take a look at Luke

Luke 9 · chapter mention

Chapter 9. We read about 7 verses there

from verse 51 and it came to pass when the time was come that

it should be received Hope, he steadfastly set his face to go

to Jerusalem. That is Jesus Christ here and

sent messengers before his face and they went and entered into a

village of the Samaritans to make ready for Him and they did

not resolve receive him because His face was as do he will go to

Jerusalem. And when his disciples James and

John saw this, they said, Lord without that we command fire to

come down from heaven and consume them even as Elias did.

I will pause here and ask a question.

Let's marry verse 23 and verse 24.

No, even from verse 52 OK and he sent messenger before his face

and they went and entered into the village of Samaritans to

make ready for him and they did not receive him because his face

was as though he will go to Jerusalem.

That's verse 53 that in Jesus intent himself was not prepared

to settle down at Samaria. Are we together and when is

disciple? Verse 54 James and John saw

this. They said law without that we

command fire to come down from evil.

They saw the physical part, they didn't see the spiritual part.

They saw the action of the Samaritan.

But they cannot by spirit perceive the mindset of Jesus.

What was not necessary for Jesus, what Jesus did not need,

what Jesus will not use, what Jesus will not embrace, what

Jesus will not prioritize. OK, they wanted to fight to

fight for Jesus. Am I talking to somebody?

You see, with spiritual vibrancy and fantasy comes over

zealousness. And there's a thin line between

over zealousness and fanaticism. Am I talking to somebody?

Verse 53 very clear. They did not receive him because

his face was do he will go to Jerusalem.

They did not receive him is the physical action that they were

not ready to accommodate him that they were not hospitable.

OK, but the man that these people were trying to resist, OK

himself, was not prepared to settle down, be part of, as we

say, because his face was as though he will go to Jerusalem.

Please in your spiritual fallacy, relate with the Spirit,

not just with the physical alone.

Am I talking to somebody? There's this high tendency for

spiritually minded people on the surface, OK, to be reacting in

the flesh, whereas they are not aligning with the Spirit of God.

So this men were not prepared to receive Jesus.

Jesus himself was not prepared to dwell there.

Yet you will see what follow, how some of his disciples who

are spiritually vibrant wanted to fight over what Jesus will

not need, over what Jesus will not consider important.

They want to make an offence out of what Jesus will not consider

an offence. Spiritual prophecy.

Not properly moderate OK may make you call evil good evil.

Am I talking to somebody and when is disciple James and Dawn

saw this they said law without that we command fire to come

down from heaven over what like my pussy kill like BAE kill like

Jew or something like that is somebody following and consume

them even as a lie as deed, but in tone I rebuked them and said

you know not what manner or spirit you are of.

So if you will not misapply grace, if you will not abuse the

gift of God as you practice your faith with five fancy OK, you

must know the manner of person you are made of.

You must know who you are know yourself inside out.

So the answer of Jesus to their oversee lostness.

They are almost fanatical dimension to the practice of

their faith. OK was that you won't do this if

you know the kind of spirit that is in you.

So do you know yourself inside out?

Jesus told I repeat them and say you don't know what manner of

spirit you are all for the Son of Man is not come to destroy

men's lives, but to save them, and they went to another

village. If you understand this message,

some of the prayers who have joined people to pray in the

past may need to be dependent on those kind of prayers.

Some of the people you have worked against, OK, you may need

to warm yourself back to their lives because you have only

reacted in the flesh, not in the spirit.

What you did may be acceptable religiously but offensive

spiritually. So we saw that young prophet in

the study we did last week, exercising unnecessary power,

just as the sons of Thunder wanted to exercise unnecessary

power and create crisis for Jesus.

Because by the time they call down fire and Thunder and kill

people, OK, that society was not without law enforcement

agencies. And then they apprehend Jesus,

and then they bring Jesus before the judges.

Yes, of course, ultimately, as he was going to Jerusalem, it

was in the same Jerusalem that it will eventually appear before

the judges. And then when they appear to be

accused of, they will not suspend any crime to him.

But if he had allowed this once to call down fire and Thunder

and kill people, OK, Will Jesus be able to stand before the

judges with a clean hand? Am I asking somebody or am I

talking to somebody rather? So in the same way we find that

young prophet exercising on necessary power, in his own case

it was not the active power that exercise, it was the passive

side of power. He sued mercy that was not

commanded. When he showed up at better and

he declared the word of God, and a king resisted him

straightforward his hand and the hand withered.

The man of God responded with mercy that was not commanded by

praying that the hand of the king should be restored.

And the king said, since you have restored my hand, I will

compensate you with a launch. I often say to people that

ministry is not doing anything that is good.

He's doing what has been commanded.

He's not doing things that are popular, OK, that you'll find

people are doing and it's acceptable.

It is doing what you have been commanded to do, working in your

ordination, carrying out your mandate as given to you by God,

not as you see it being done by others.

Am I talking to somebody? If fail to realize that the

anointing can multifate, at that point it's still excellent, but

as you progress further you will discover that the anointing can

intoxicate you. Progress further, you will get

to learn and know that the anointing can instigate to

instigate you to do certain things without checking with the

giver of the anointing. AM I talking to somebody?

What is my counsel? What is the precaution that I

recommend? You must not cease the control

switch of your anointing from the Holy Spirit.

Keep the anointing OK, but let the Holy Spirit have this

control switch. This must not be you turning

your anointing on and off by yourself.

You must be moved by the Spirit of God.

As many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of

God. The day you stop being led by

the Spirit of God, you may be deceived, you may be moved by

the flesh. You may be moved by Satan to do

things that will make you lose your sonship.

Am I talking to somebody? As many as are led by the Spirit

of God. They are what the sons of God.

So keep the anointing exercise the anointing, but let the

control switch of the anointing be with the Holy Spirit.

Let him use you as it may please him.

Let him 'cause his player to prosper in your hand.

Let let him beat the control like general of everything about

the manner your practice your faith life, and you exercise

your spiritual gifts. We have often heard it said that

the great apostle of faith, Smith Wigglesworth often say

that if the Holy Spirit does not move me, I will move the Holy

Spirit. So don't misinterpret that

saying. Don't miss apply that words of

Wiggles word. Wiggles word was only cancelling

against passive faith that you don't live a life whereby you

are just there. Whatever the devil dumps on you

is what you achieve and then the Kingdom assignment will be there

and you are doing nothing. Hello, the devil is messing up

around you and you are just an onlooker.

That is what Wigglesworth cancel again.

Wigglesworth is not saying take over and occupy the place of the

Holy Spirit. You are not the Holy Spirit.

Say I am not the Holy Spirit. So.

What is my recommended precaution in that regard?

If the Holy Spirit has not move you, wait for the Holy Spirit.

If the Holy Spirit has not move you, what do you do?

Wait for the holy faith. Like I said earlier, let the

control switch of your anointing stay with the Holy Spirit.

The control switch of your anointing.

Let it stay with who? Asami Church with the Holy

Spirit. Being led by the Holy Spirit is

different from being instigated by the anointing.

You need to know the difference. There's a difference.

Being led by the Holy Spirit is different from being instigated

by the anointing. Being toxicated by the

anointing. Who is allowed?

But don't allow the anointing to instigate you against the plan

of God, instigate you against the will of God, instigate you

to take action that God will say who sent you?

I don't know about it. Hello.

If the Holy Spirit is leading you, OK, you will do things that

are consistent with the character of God.

You will do things that are constant with the calendar of

God because it's possible that you do things that are constant

with the car out to God that may not be consistent with the

calendar of God. Do you understand me?

Concerned with the car out of God?

Because that's what God will want you to do.

But what? How about the timing?

So if you are instigated by the anointing, OK, you may be doing

things that are concerned with the character of God, but that

does not align with the calendar of God.

Say, O Lord, let all my actions, all my steps of feet, all my

step in pursuit of purpose, align with your character and

consistent with your calendar in the name of Jesus.

So being led by the Holy Spirit is different from being

instigated by the anointing. Then from our comparison of the

unacceptable action of that young prophet and the rejected

or intended action of the sons of Thunder, the disciples of

Jesus, it's very obvious that there is no temperament that is

in moon to committing spiritual error.

That prophet to me looks more like an introvert temperament

person. Every request that is put to him

is submit to it. Oh, please pray to the prepare

to God to heal my hand. Yes, Sir.

To the King. Come over and heats in my house.

An Indian has told me that you come and hit in my house.

Yes, he submitted to it. You got that?

That manner of temperament is clearly different from the Sons

of Thunder. OK, we were actually trying to

take charge. OK, rather than take instruction

from Jesus who are trying to serve Jesus instruction, let's

call down fire. So the tendency is there because

you have a simple attitude to life.

On the surface you look cool and gentle.

You know, somebody can be gentle and not make hello.

So that does not mean that it's only aggressive people that can

commit spiritual error of going against the grain of the will of

God. Even cool and quiet people can

also go against the grain of the will of God.

So you need to know that no temperament is the moon to

committing spiritual error. Anger is not the only thing that

can trigger abuse of power. Anger is not the only thing that

can trigger the abuse of power. When you are overtly tender,

that can also make you intervene where you are not expected to do

so. It was a response of mercy, a

response of kindness that made that young prophet to pray for

the king, for his with a hand to be restored without checking

with the one who gave him the mandate didn't check properly.

Are we together? First King 13.

Let's read the first 6 verses. We read the same last week,

First Kings 13 and beyond. There came a man of God out of

Judah, like I said earlier on, simply, he was simply introduced

to us as a man of God. And we will not care whether

it's experience or not experience, whether it's young

or not young, because his anointing is already a blessing

to people. He has the word of God.

But his juvenile action was what eventually revealed him that

this one was young and inexperienced.

And I'm saying that experience is not the only yardstick by

which maturity is mayor exposure also matter.

Are we together? And that it is your composure

that will reveal whether you have attained maturity or not.

It came out of Judah by the word of the Lord unto Bethel.

And Dirubwam stood by the altar to born incense.

And he cried against the altar in the word of the Lord, and

said, O altar, altar, don't share the Lord.

Behold, a child shall be born unto the House of David Joshua

by name, and upon thee shall he offer the priests of the high

places, that born in sense upon thee, and men boon shall be

burnt upon thee. He was highly gifted, and he

gave a sign the same day saying, This is the sign which the Lord

has spoken. This is the sign which the Lord

has spoken. Behold, the altar shall be

rained, and the acids that upon it shall be poured out.

The sign, OK, that he gave was the one that the Lord has

spoken. Then he performed another sign

that the Lord did not speak. That went against the grain, OK,

of God's judgment upon a king that was insolent.

And it came to pass when the king Rabam had the same of the

man of gold which had cry against the altar in better that

he put his hand. He put forth his hand from the

author, saying, lay hold on him, and his hand which he put forth

against him dry off, so that he could not pull it again.

To him. The author also was reigned that

sign that he prophesied which God spoke came to pass.

The altar was R.E.M., and the answers pour out from the altar

according to the sign with the man of God had given by the word

of the Lord, as many as are led by the Spirit of God by the word

of the Lord. He did it by the word of the

Lord, not by trying to showcase power or impress people or prove

to people that it's got the annoying thing.

And the king answered and said unto the man of God, indeed.

Now the face of the Lord, I go and pray for me that my hand may

be restored upon me, and man of God be forced done.

And the king and was restored in the game and became as it was

before. So one of the ways to avoid that

kind of error is to know yourself inside out.

So the emphasis we are putting forward this morning is on

knowing yourself inside out as a major precaution to avoid abuse

of spiritual grief that comes with spiritual fervency.

So know yourself in the Spirit and know yourself in the flesh.

To my mind, this job provide new serving the Spirit.

He knew the kind of grace he carried.

OK, and he exercised that grace authoritatively.

But I doubt if you knew himself enough in the flesh, and not

knowing himself in the flesh to me amount to the reason you

could not tame his tongue. We measure it, especially last

week, that when he engaged with the King, when he engaged with

the senior prophet, he said more than was necessary.

He said more than was what necessary.

To me. He really did not know himself

in the flesh. To know that he is weak, that

will fail me. OK.

To go academic, there's something they call SWOT

analysis. Yeah, if you will apply it

properly. OK, one of the contents is that

you must know your weakness. It applies spiritually too.

So you will therefore be able to put attention on crime to God

for the grace to overcome the weakness.

Examine yourself whether you still be in faith?

Do you not know yourself? So it means the scripture

expects us to do what? Know our self.

Don't just know what people are saying about you.

They may not be correct. Unenulu Manu Unenko, Lumaka.

Carry out regular spiritual checkup on yourself.

I think we already talked about that.

Check your spiritual vitals and be able to know your state of

faith, your moral strengths, your emotional strengths, All

this. You need to know where people

call you what you are not, and they even give you an assignment

that you are not capable of. You should be able to know where

they push you. Don't push yourself.

So he eventually ended up violating the rule of

consecration. Why?

He said more than was necessary and those information that was

not supposed to be leaked out, that he leaked out by himself

were reported to the old prophet.

If no report went to the old prophet about his consecration,

the old prophet may be out of strategy.

OK to trick him. It was the information he

volunteered carelessly that the old prophet capitalized upon to

trick him. I pray again over your life you

will not mistake a predator for a pastor.

So consecration is to be kept. It is not to be advertised.

Share your revelation. Keep your consecration was a

very strong emphasis last week, and I'm saying the same thing

differently this morning. Consecration is to be kept, it

is not meant to be what to be advertised.

One of the strength of modern Mary when the in jail met her

and announce what will happen to her.

The scripture was very clear about it that Mary kept all this

thing to herself no be church or church or she didn't carry out

for us to chat with her friends. If she has done that, the

information will not be properly managed and she will be

blackmailed. Are you with me Senweibu?

So she Fiasuriha, once they say to you, OK, you must say to

another person, it's a strong weakness if you are that type of

person, what they say to you and that person must hear about it.

Years back when I preached on that topic, I call it aura

diarrhea, uncontrollable stool, OK, that is diarrhea, is that

not? So?

Some people don't suffer the uncontrollable stool type, OK?

It is from their mouths that they are suffering diarrhea.

Say, Oh Lord, garment grace to overcome all manners of moral

weakness, all manners of spiritual weakness, in the name

of Jesus. So he said more than was

necessary from verse seventh, the first king.

And the king said unto the man of God, Come home with me, I

refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward.

And the man of God said unto the King, If that will give me half

of the house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat

bread nor drink water in this place.

That was not necessary to be said, for so was he charged me

by the word of the law, Say, Eat no bread, nor drink water, nor

turn again by the same way that thou chemist.

So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he

came to better. Now they are dwell an old

prophet in better. And his son came and told him

all the words that the man of God had done that day in better,

the word which he has spoken unto the king.

Now those sons of the Sinner prophet that were there, they

will have just stopped at broadcasting the works that He

did had better Are you with me? If He had not said more than

necessary. So the Bible now said the words

which He has spoken unto the king.

Them they told also their father, and that was the

beginning of His downfall. That was what's the beginning of

His downfall? Is it Baba Adido?

Konni Arrow, Mera Kobami? There are many trouble people

have put upon themselves. Hallelujah.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah. Can we take one or two more?

Then what follow was the dining table.

He did not discipline his appetite, so discipline your

appetite is another precaution. Don't be like the young prophet

who honored A banquet organized against his destiny and dispute

that inspire that banquet was the spirit of malice, but he

didn't know it still force King 30 from verse 12 and their

father said unto them, that is the father of this prophet,

young prophet that brought the report.

What we went, he already volunteered that God said, I

should not go back to the way I came from, for his son has seen

what way the man of God went, which came from Judah.

And he said unto his sons, Saddle me the house, So they

saddle him the house, and he rolled their own.

And when when after the man of God, and found him sitting under

an oak, And he said unto him, I doubt the man of God that came

out from Judah. And he said, I am.

Then he said unto him, Come with me, and eat bread.

And he said, I may not return with thee, nor go in with thee.

Neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in

display. For it was said to me, by the

word of the law, Thou shalt eat no bread, nor drink water there,

nor turn again to go by the way that thou cameest.

I can tell somebody I am not eating without necessarily

telling you I am fasting. Are you with me?

It is where you tell them you are fasting.

OK, that they will now stop cooking custard.

They will now go and be roasting.

Planting. Because if it is just custard,

it may not be as tempting as roasted plantain and roasting

fish so that you can break your consecration call my heat.

I am not eating. I have already left your city.

I am going. God will bring another day when

I will be visiting and then you are going to lose me.

Let me go. He started to say.

That was what the Lord said to me was advertising is

consecration. Advertising is consecration.

Verse 18. He said unto him, I am a prophet

also, as thou art, and an Indian speak unto me by the word of the

Lord, saying, Bring him back with thee into the house, that

he may eat bread and drink water.

But he lied unto him. So he went back with him, and

did eat bread in his house, and drank water.

And he came to pass, as he sat at the table, that the word of

the Lord came unto the prophet, that brought him back at the

tune here, and came away. Why will God still not pass

through the same predator? Hello, that God used a man of

God for you yesterday. If he submit himself to the

devil does not mean the devil also cannot use him against you.

Are you with me and the crown? The man of God that came from

Judah said don't share the law for as much as thou as disobeyed

the mouth of the Lord and has not kept the commandment with

the Lord that God commanded thee.

Knowing fully aware that he occasioned it, knowing fully

aware that he orchestrated it. Yet you could with both face try

to push it to him that you disobey God whereas it was the

brain behind his disobedience. I pray again over your life you

will not mistake a predator for a pastor.

But camel's back, and has eaten bread and drink water in the

place of the week. The Lord said to thee, Eat no

bread and drink no water. Thy caca shall not come into the

sepulchre of thy father. The hand of the story was that

it was eaten by a lion. May I say it?

And I want you to hear it clearly.

The lap of women, the table of wine and the table of dentists

are to be watched against as you carry the grace of God are you

move in the anointing. Beware of the lap of women.

Beware of the table of wine and the table of dentists.

I will need to allow more, more and the name of Jesus because a

lot of people, they just want to be involved.

They want to be included. I preach about that years back,

that character error. Beautiful error of you forcing

inclusion. #3 with that man lack which you must possess as a

precaution. The spirit of discernment.

The spirit of what discernment? Remember Apostle Paul for days

in Philippi, a lady was following him and saying good

things about him, but those things were being said from a

wrong spirit, from a demonic spirit.

Man can praise you to your death if you are the time that just

want to hear people say good things and good things only

about you. Was anybody introduce an element

of correction. You block off 1st 1617 and 18 of

Acts of the Apostle. And it came to pass as we went

to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with the spirit of

divination methods, which brought our masters much game by

soothsaying the same follow Paul and us and Christ, saying these

men are the servants of the Most High God.

We see us the way of salvation. And this did she many days.

If she were cursing them, will she be able to do it many days?

Answer me, Would Paul have cast that demon out earlier than when

he did? And if that demon will not want

to be cast out, OK, Apostle will have rebuked her.

Are you with me? But because the kind of things

he was saying were good things. OK, the team did not give it

attention, but thank God that dispute of discernment

eventually came into play. Its part if this was zament did

not come into play it but they will have recruited her into the

ministry as would have been ordained and consecrated as a

prophet test in the ministry of Apostle Paul because the thing

that she was saying were correct things.

I mean, but the ambassador we pay Apostle Paul OK, these are

men. That's what now that's 17 saying

these men are the servants of the most high God.

Is it not correct? We see us the way of and this

did she many days, but Paul being grieved turned and said to

the Spirit I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out

of her and it came out the same hour and lastly, you must be

spiritually sound half depth that I have said earlier.

I'm just reemphasizing it because I'm drawing the cutting

on this subject today. Don't be like the sons of Skiva,

those seven sons of Skiva, that black personal encounter with

Jesus, but banking on the testimony they have heard about

the name of Jesus to operate in the power dimension.

Thank God for community anointing.

Thank God for community identity.

But personal anointing and personal identity.

We matter a lot in spiritual warfare.

Acts 19 I read from verse 11. And God wrote special miracles

by the hands of Paul, so that from his body were brought onto

the sick handkerchief or aprons, and the diseases departed from

them, and the evil spirit went out of them.

Then certain of the Vagabond Jews, exhausted, took upon them

to call over them without evil spirit, the name of the Lord

Jesus. Is it that somebody is using the

name of Jesus as a cover OK for his diabolical practices?

OK, should be suspected or don't fall. 50 AM I talking to

somebody? Vagabonds is what Jesus called

them, and they wonder what scripture call them.

Let's call them what vagabonds, exorcist.

The same thing they are doing in Babalahoustri is what they are

doing in their center, but they call it church.

So because it is church, you submit sheepishly.

So they were calling over people which are devoted with the name

of the Lord Jesus, saying we are joy you by Jesus whom Paul

preachers and there were several sons of once given a Jew and

chief of the priest which did so and evil spirit answered and

said, Jesus, I know and Paul I know, but who are ye?

Some people are sincere, OK, but they are sincerely wrong.

Oh, that was the one where you have to see or was she be

wanting be wanting suggestion answer.

What does that that would work on

So they were using the name of Jesus and the evil split

answered and say Jesus, I know I'm poor.

I know but a young call, Who are ye?

And the man in womb the evil spirit worse leapt on them,

overcame them, prevailed against them, so that they fled out of

the house naked and wounded. And this was known to all the

Jews and Greeks also dwelling and Ephesus.

And fear fell on them all and the name of the Lord Jesus was

magnified. Please know this because God

will so help you that you take your spiritual fabricy beyond

just your personal faith life devotion to a degree whereby God

will begin to use you mightily. I expect somebody to say mental

that. So take note that what is called

ministry is not mimicry. Ministry is not what mimicry

Minister is not what I see them doing over there I want to

replicate. It's not producing a carbon copy

of what others are doing. It's receiving your specific

mandate and carrying it out in a line with the grain of

cosplayer. You should know that there are

realms in the things of the spirit that answer only to

personal identity. There are realms in the things

of the spirit that answer to only personal identity.

Do you have a personal devotion? OK, that transcends going to the

pastor's office to receive prayer, visiting prophets to

receive prayer. Can you enter his presence

without knocking doors? Is your voice sufficiently

recognized in heaven? OK, that when you kneel down to

pray in, Jekyll will say, I know that voice in the last Come

again, Am I talking to somebody? So there are rhymes in the

things of the Spirit that answer only to personal identity and

not to the general identity of Oasis, general identity of

Redeem, general identity of CSE, your identity of Select, your

identity of CNA, your identity of whichever denomination you

belong to. Am I talking to somebody?

Have you got to that level? OK, that realm, OK, where you

have a personal recognition in the presence of God.

This faith is about your name in the book of life, your name.

So we will not enter heaven by group identity.

We are going to enter heaven by personal identity.

So there are ramps in the spirit of, I mean, in the case of the

spirit answer, to only personal identity and not to the general

identity, in fact, not to patriarchal identity.

There's that realm, the realm of the God whom I serve, the God

before whom I stand. May the Lord help you to come up

either to that realm where you will be able to see the God

before whom I stand, the God that I serve.

Thank God that your Father serve God.

Hello. And there are benefit that comes

with that level of faith whereby you can say, God of my Father's.

What kind of faith life are you living that can also be credited

to you that your own children will be able to pray tomorrow?

God of my father, don't you know you're also a father of some

children and if you are not yet one that you become father of

some children. So if you exhaust all the

blessings that the fathers of who that could work with your

own children meet. Am I talking to somebody?

If I met with my my memory will carry me properly.

There is, I came across a piece on the social media years back

of a particular restaurant whereby you come in and they say

eat anything you want, it is free.

And then people were rushing in and they get there OK and they

were eating everything they want to, they want to eat.

But when they want to exit the room, you must not go back from,

you don't go out from the door by which you come in.

So there's an exit door and by the time you got to the exit

door, there's another information there.

OK, pay for not for what you have eaten, but pay for others

that will come in to eat because what you had, somebody paid for

it. And that is the truth about

life. Are you with me?

So that realm, the answer to personal identity, not just the

general identity, not partake identity, is the realm I call

the realm of the God before whom I stand, the form who I have

personal identity, the God, the form whom I serve, not just the

God of my Father. So it is not over every little

thing Elijah must access the door of the God of Elijah.

When it was a juvenile, Elijah was a juvenile when he was just

trying to take to take to start up OK and pick it up from where

Elijah stopped, he got to River Jordan and he said where is the

Lord God of Elijah? I never heard him say that

again. Hello.

And whatever wonder or miracles Elijah performed, Elijah doubled

it, but only when he was his starter.

That said where the Lord God of Elijah, I'm not teaching you to

be arrogant. I'm teaching you to understand

the responsibility that support you over the issue of personal

identity. So not over every little thing

Eliza must I said the door of the God of Elijah, Second Kings

2 Kings 2 · chapter mention

chapter 2, verse 1213 and 14. And Eliza saw it.

That was when Elijah was to be taken away, and he cried, My

father, my father, the childhood of Israel and the horsemen, they

are all And he saw him no more. And he took hold of his own

cloth and ran them in two pieces.

He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and

went back and stood by the Bank of Jordan.

Even the mantle. Hello, we are as did you read

that Elijah used that mantle. Hello, you want to leave by Dwar

Kodadwala? Have you come and resort to the

April you received from your pastor?

Am I talking to somebody? Yes, he received the mantu.

He used the mantu to pass the the Red Sea when he wanted to

raise the dead. He didn't go searching for the

mantu. If you want to take advantage of

you and make ourselves look very important and that you can't

move our spiritually without us. We will not tell you this, but

we're not going to be doing your destiny any good if we do that.

If you follow that pattern, am I talking to somebody?

So come up to that realm of personal.

I hear your voice and they will begin to run up and down to

execute what you have asked in the place of prayer.

Unless I saw it. And he cried, My father, my

father, the child of the official, and the horsemen

thereof. And he saw him no more.

And he took hold of his own clothes and ran them into

pieces. He took up also the mantra of

Elijah that fell from him, and went by and stood by the Bank of

Jordan. And he took the mantra of Elijah

that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is

the Lord God of Elijah? And when the Lord God of Elijah

showed up that day, he get hold of the Lord God of Elijah, he

never allow him to go again. Am I with me or are you with me

rather? So where?

Where is the Lord God of Elijah? The God of Elijah are there.

And we walked away from the Lord of Elijah.

We didn't glue to him. So every time, OK, we now need

gold, we step out through the door of Elijah.

And when he had also smitten the water, they departed, departed

either and either. And Eliza went over what am I

say? Essentially, what is perfect for

you at some stage may suggest another meaning at another stage

of your spiritual development. That stage of you, the mantle of

another man, that stage of calling the God of another man

was perfect for that stage. Hospital development of Elijah.

At that stage, it was a young prophet crossing River Jordan.

It was only different from an established prophet raising a

dead child. Hello, the stage of a young

prophet crossing the Jordan River.

It's different from an established prophet racing adult

child. So if you don't know where to

draw the line, prophetic action may eventually become idolatrous

practice. You don't know where to draw the

line. Prophetic action acceptable,

perfect, and God use it as an instrument of grace as a sort of

manifestation of his power may eventually turn out to become

idolatrous practice. He said that were being bitten

by snake in the wilderness. Moses was stood get his Smith

and calf A bruised snake. Hang it on a stick and when

anybody is bitten by a snake and they look up to it, that person

will be made old. And it worked excellently, but

Israelites kept it until the days of the king, and they

started to worship that serpent until a proverb came and said,

no, this is absolutely throw it away.

Am I talking to somebody? So if you don't know where to

draw the line, prophetic action eventually become idolatrous

practice. Izikaya on the day was under his

death sentence. You remember the king Izikaya to

came out of, I mean to come out of that death sentence.

It turned to save identity, not to dividic identity.

Are you with me? Such was the case with King

Hezekiah, the prophetic officer. Very delicate officer, these

people who are quick to call themselves prophet.

I really I think I don't think they really understood what that

office stands for when God will give you an assignment that you

know, we ridicule your identity. Jonah go and tell the people of

delivery that they would perish in days to come, and they went

down and announced. But he knew that this God is a

massive God. And that was exactly what

happened when you blame Jonah that he was not had to go to to

go to Nineveh and he was running to Tashi.

That was what he was running away from protecting his

personal identity because he knew God.

You know that what God says, you go and tell the people may

eventually not happen and he will not be there.

Well, go with reversity. Such is the mystery of the

prophetic office. Are you with me?

If the king became sick, this was sent to the Proverbs, a

prophet. Come and pray for the king to be

made. Oh, and there was no record that

this king has offended God or this king has done evil.

In fact, it was a godly king. Few of the king that did well

and God did not send a witch or a wizard.

So I granted the king that the king would die.

It was not a prophet. What if the king has said

prophet? You have said I will die.

What do we do about it? Because that is your office.

I told you last week we are an advanced discipleship class.

Who advanced? Have you advanced, you see, to

be an instrument in the hand of God and carry grace to minister

to people. You think it's it's a small

thing. It's not a small thing.

No. If you only see the side of

Daddy, the man of God. God bless you.

Hello. Christmas gift.

Birthday gift Ojibwelo. President, Press the name of the

Lord. Press the

name of the Lord. So it's like Hezekiah understood

that that was what was happening.

He didn't say prophet Isaiah, pray for me.

He excuse the prophet to go. Then he turned to personal

identity. Are you growing your face?

Then when situation and challenges of life come, you can

also stand before God and turn to personal identity and God

will say, I have no other option than to answer you.

Isaiah 3846 verses in those days was Hezekiah seek unto death.

And Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amos came unto him, and said

unto him does say, the Lord, say the house, in order for thou

shalt die and not live. Imagine the kind of

contemplation that that will have gone in the mind of Elijah

to go and deliver that kind of a message, not even to a peace

hand, but to a king that can say on muti uni, go and behead him.

You are not drunk, the king is sick.

And that's the kind of message you are bringing. #2 there is

here. Turn his face towards the world,

and pray unto the Lord, and say, Remember now, O Lord, I beseech

thee, how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect

heart. It turned to personal identity

and I've done that which is good in thy sides and it's a kind of

web soul. Then came the word of Lord to

Isaiah say go back, go and say to Ezekiel, you know there are

issues of life whereby the only minister of your pastor are the

things we see when it comes to who we pray.

It is you that we pray for yourself.

This I had say if you like take it but I pray I and I beg I pray

that you should take it. The thing that the pastor we say

we only guide you to know the kind of prayer to pray you don't

live the life of the pastor Mozu the prayer There are issues like

that in life. So you came he said the first

thing OK, the king prayed. Are you with me and God said to

the pro again, go and say another thing and he says it.

So your attitude to the Word of God, we go a very long way to

determine how far you go in the sense of the Spirit.

What attitude do you have towards the Word of God?

Then came the word of Lord to Isaiah saying, go and say to

Kaya, don't say the Lord, the God of David, thy father.

He didn't turn to the Davidic identity, though he was of the

language of David. Are we together?

I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears.

Behold, I will have unto thy this 15 years, and I will

deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of

Assyria, and I will defend this city.

I pray for you in the name of Jesus.

wonders, that no part of darkness will be able to intrude

into your destiny perimeter, that because you are in charge,

the devil will not mess up around your family.
