The Principles of Spiritual Fervency 2 (Who is a Spiritual Warrior?) | Rev. COS Fawenu

Who is this? A Wisdom Bible church?

The Church of a distant. Christian The topic we started

last week is the Principles of Spiritual Pharmacy.

Today we are going to still prove further on that topic by

examining who is a spiritual warrior.

Who is a spiritual warrior? We established properly last

week that every believer must essentially see himself,

understand himself, carry himself and apply himself as a

spiritual warrior. Hallelujah.

So let's quickly do a review of that and then we see to what

degree the Holy Spirit will allow us to attain today.

We started by saying last week that success and victory in life

entails or encompasses 3 different basic concepts.

The concept of divine clemency. You remember I said something

like that last week? The concept of divine clemency

which entails favour. So you can call it the concept

of favour. The Scripture is very clear

about it, that except the Lord build the house, the liberal in

vain that build it, except the Lord watches over the city, The

watchman wicked but in vain, is not of him that will.

It is not of him that run it, but of God that soweth mercy.

So to succeed and be victorious in life, the clemency of God

must play its part. So that comes under the concept

of favor. May you be favored by God to do

well in life. May you be favored by God to win

all your battles convincingly and conveniently.

In the name of Jesus, lift up your eyes and say the Lord, help

me, empower me, favor me to win my battles convincingly and

conveniently. It will be so clear that you are

the winner and you will do it without struggle because help we

arrived for you from above in the name of Jesus.

So divine clemency. Then the second one is practical

vibrancy. Practical what vibrancy?

That is the concept of dignity of labour.

The concept of dignity of labour.

The concept of accepting personal responsibility for your

role in destiny. It's not a situation of angels

do everything for me, it's not the situation of God do

everything for me. It's not a situation of you

throw everything on Destiny Airport.

It's also a situation of God enabling you to be able to play

your part properly. The scriptures say you will

receive power when the Holy Ghost come upon you, and when

you receive that power, that power must be applied.

Am I talking to somebody? So you have the concept of

practical vibrancy as the second leg, second essential to success

and victory in life, and then the third concept, which is the

concept of spiritual fitness. The concept of spiritual

fitness. I call that spiritual vacancy,

the concept of spiritual pavancy, the frost, divine

clemency, the second practical vibrancy, and the third

spiritual pavancy, and that talks about the concept of

spiritual fitness. That you are spiritually fit,

because in this life we are not fighting against flesh and

blood, but against principalities and power.

So the spiritual dimension is very real and you must be there.

Hello, you must be spiritually fit.

Then we went on further to also draw to our attention the fact

that life is a place of constant battle and that we are

constantly engaging in spiritual warfare.

That you are conscious of it or not conscious of it are two

different things entirely. Are we together?

So in life? Spiritual warfare is not

dodgeable, but it is conquerable.

So you don't take the path of trying to dodge battles.

Hello. So spiritual warfare is not

dodgeable, but I assure you in Christ it is conquerable in this

world, in this life you will face tribulation.

Those are the ways of our Lord Jesus Christ.

He said, but be of good, yes, I have overcome the world.

So spiritual warfare is not something you can dodge, but it

is something you can by the help of God and by this spirituality

feed and apply the capability of the Spirit, that the capability

of the Spirit of God. And now you win.

Conquer all your battles. Say I will conquer all my

battles. I can't hear you.

So every man we experience a fair share of life battles.

Every man we experience a fair share of life battles.

So nobody is battle a moon, nobody is battle exonerated,

nobody is battle at same time. It may not come in different

type, it may not come in different size, it may not come

at the same time. But every man we have his or her

own fair share of life battle. You will be victorious over

whatever challenges you come across in the journey of destiny

in the name of Jesus. So it is wise, therefore, for

you to constantly keep feet in the Spirit, Say to your neighbor

now far away, keep feet in the Spirit.

Keep feet in the spirit now. The purpose, the objective, this

message, this topic principles or spiritual pharmacy seek to

achieve is to help you to learn how to keep feet in the Spirit,

how to keep feet in the spirit because we are constantly going

through live battles. And so you must not lose God.

You must not lose God. So keep feet in the spirit and

do not delegate your spiritual responsibility.

Don't delegate your spiritual responsibility.

Hallelujah. I did mention to you that if you

want to delegate it to your pastor, your pastors too are

fighting the toughest of battles.

Hello. You are delegating it to your

parents. Don't forget your parents are

aging very fast. Hallelujah.

Oh, you delegate it to your friend?

Have you forgotten that? OK, life is a contest, so the

person you are delegated to also ask some battle to fight and

nobody wants to be left behind. Jesus, when he was invited

disciples to follow him, what is told them is that they should

carry their cross. They should do what?

Carry their cross? He never promised anybody to

help them carry their cross. Hello.

He may give them the implement and the ability to carry it.

But that it will carry it for you?

No. AM I talking to somebody?

So spiritual warfare. We said it emphatically that it

is not an optional vocation. In the journey of faith, it's

not an optional vocation in the journey of faith, it's a

component of the journey of faith, a component that cannot

be divorced from the journey of faith and destiny, spiritual

warfare. So, and we mentioned that it's

not a special duty reserve for only the prayer squad.

That is a wrong orientation we have in church, OK.

When it comes to spiritual warfare, we feel that it's a

departmental team that only those one, the intercessive

ministry should face is somebody learning something.

So it's a wrong approach, it's a wrong orientation to think that

spiritual warfare is a special duty reserved for only the

prayers card or the prayer or the intercessory department of

the Church is a vocation that is not optional in the school of

faith. We must all be far friends in

the Spirit serving the Lord. We must all the people who come

pray effective prayer of faith. We must all be people believer.

Who can tell the devil sit down and the devil will sit down?

Who can tell the devil get lost and the devil will get lost?

We must get to the level whereby we can rebuke Satan and Satan

will respond. James 47.

Submit yourself therefore to God.

Resist the devil, and it will flee from you.

Are you with me? But what manner of believer do

we have today? Believers that are only away

from witches and wizard believers that are afraid to

visit their village so that the Wizards in their village will

not kill them. So if you are spiritually fit,

you reign over your enemy. You don't run from your enemy.

Am I talking to somebody? But some people will but today

there are some believer who so case running away from enemy as

spirituality as prophetic recommendation you go to the

place of prayer and they recommend to you don't go to

your village under understand many concepts.

I mean in concepts we have, we must be sensitive to the Spirit

of God and be guided by the Spirit of God.

But instruction whereby it become a standard that you must

be dodging witches and wizard, you must be dodging powers of

darkness. You must be looking for the

escapist way to run from the devil rather than fetch the

devil. James 47 Submit yourself,

therefore to go stand against the devil, resist the devil who

will run. He said the devil will run, but

we are the one that is always running is an error is what is

an error. So social warfare, I said is not

dodgeable, but it is what conquerable.

So don't always choose the path of dodgy, choose the path of

concrete. And the way to conquer is to

stay spiritually fit. So spiritual warfare is a

general vocation for all believers, is a general occasion

for all believer. Life is a place of constant

battle. I have said that over and over

again, and you need to know it. Life does not reward indolence.

Life does not reward indolence in situation whereby you are

cool, you are casual, Okay, the devil can always come and meet

your door open. Hello.

The devil can always come and meet you spiritually, paralyzed,

spiritually a place. No, that is not how to be a

favent believer, OK? The devil must not continue to

surprise you all the time. The devil will not succeed to

continue to turn you into a panic mood every time you are

panicking. You are frigidity OK.

You cannot be bold OK to stand. Up.

To whatever are the skins of darkness, I pray again, in the

name of Jesus, the Lord will set you ablaze.

You will be empowered to live the life of a conqueror, in fact

the life of somebody more than conqueror in the name of Jesus.

So life is a place of constant battle.

Life does not reward indolence and but rather life rewards

competence. It rewards competence, it

rewards diligence. And when we're talking about

diligence, diligence not only at your physical work, but also

diligence in spiritual vacancy, diligence in spiritual works

vacancy. So spiritual vacancy should not

be outsourced to spiritual merchants.

You don't outsource spiritual vacancy to a spiritual

merchants, OK? What you're supposed to do in

the spirit? OK, You don't submit it to your

pastor, your general Vasia, or a professor somewhere watching for

you. Watch for yourself.

Am I talking to somebody? Watch for yourself.

It is irresponsibility to be undertaken personally and I

argue convincingly last week that if spiritual fervency.

While irresponsibility to be delegated, God will not require

us or bother us to pray to Him. Hello.

God want us to be personally responsible for our spiritual

life is the reason He gave us access to Him to be able to talk

to Him directly. If He wanted us to approach that

something that can be delegated, then only a few people will be

able to approach the throne of Greece.

But that moment it died on the cross of Calvary and the cloak

that separate the holy place from the holies of holy God told

everybody now have access to Baba God.

Am I talking to somebody Hallelujah now.

For today, let us examine for The Who is the spiritual

warrior? Who are supposed who are

supposed to be enlisted or regarded as spiritual warriors?

Every soft saved and saved soul to see himself or accept as

spiritual warrior the sacrifices of Christ is wasted.

OK, if you cannot rise up to the level whereby you.

Can manifest the purpose of your salvation.

So you are not saved to stay as a miracle seeker.

Jesus made that very clear when he was pronouncing the mandate

of the Great Commission in Mark chapter 16.

Mark 16 · chapter mention

He made it very clear there to let us know that we should not

live the faith life of a miracle seeker, but that we must become

gospel preachers, making disciples of all nation and even

a miracle worker. And that is what makes every

believer in spiritual warrior Mark 16.

I read from verse 16. He that believeth and is

baptized shall be saved. But he that believeth not shall

be done, and these signs shall follow them that believe.

So the most basic OK of the requirement for discipleship is

what qualify you to work in power.

Hello you know maybe the academics.

There are certain benefits you may not have access to except my

PhD holder in the family setting or in the social setting of the

society. There are certain things you are

not entitled to until you are an adult.

Even as basic as hopefully your own personal bank accounts, OK,

until you are 18 in in Nigeria, I don't know what that place is

when the open the account for you, the account is still at the

custodial maybe of your parent or guardian.

It is where you are 18 that you cannot have free access to it.

But when it comes to working in power, the most basic

requirement is belief. Be baptized.

You know you don't believe people come before being

baptized. Then several other things now

followed several levels of spiritual experience,

sanctification, Holy Ghost baptism, and so on and so forth.

But here in the mandate of Jesus about the Great Commission, OK,

he made it so simple. That access to working in power

is not tied to the sophisticated dimension of the spiritual work,

but rather tied to the same place.

Let's take that Scripture again, and this is a from verse 16.

If that believe it, that is the first level, the primary level,

the basic level, then and is baptized.

Shall be saved, but he that believeth nor shall be done.

And this I shall follow them that believe in my name shall

they cast out devils, deliverance, ministration,

casting out devil. OK, when something like that is

coming up, you are looking for somebody that has been

especially given that ministry. OK, you are keeping that?

Waiting for the senior pastor because that is the mindset you

have. But here he's also saying

science will follow them that believe.

How many believers are in the house this morning?

If you are believer in the house, can I see your hand?

Then this science can follow you.

This science can do what can follow you, and this science

shall follow them that believe. Now, as we proceed in the study,

we are going to get to the level where the zones again say there

are certain dimensions that cannot come except by prayer and

fasting. So there's the room for

upgrading. That's the deploymental

dimension. But basically you can command

sign as a believer. You can work in power as a

believer in my name, Shade, Castle, Devil, they shall speak

with new tongues. So believing is the door, is the

access OK to the supernatural dimension?

That's the implication. Hello.

But a lot of you, the door is open to you, but you are still

standing outside. A lot of you, you take the first

step in. I am no longer making progress.

I will make progress. Can I hear yourself make

progress? So believing OK is the door is

the starting point. It gives you the access to

proceed into higher dimension, to the supernatural dimension in

your work with God. They suspect with no tongue they

shall take off serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing it

shall not help them. They shall lay hands on the

seat. When last did you remember to

lay hand even on yourself when you had headache?

That is the that is the starting point that it seems you are

having headache. And then you remember the

Scripture how you lay hands on yourself.

OK. And then three days after, now

remember that it's like 3 days ago I wanted to have a headache

and it has gone. I did not even remember when the

thing fly out. Am I talking to somebody?

This first life is practical. It's what it's practical.

Your child works. So you I said Daddy, Daddy, it's

like I'm having fever. OK, you say you lay hand or you

join hand with a child. I said let us pray Father, in

the name of Jesus. OK, you, you the first thing to

remember is not parastar or the first thing to remember is

parascripture. AM I talking to somebody?

We are looking at the principles of spiritual fathers.

Engage in the name of Jesus Christ to work in the

supernatural. My wife know that so well that

my answer. To every need is mechanical.

And God has never. Disappointed me darling.

It's like we need some resources for domestic.

The answer is God will provide. Hallelujah.

The answer is what God will provide and He has always

provided. He has always provided.

But if you are not a smiley minded wife, I know so

genuinely, God will provide. You may pick one from that kind

of answer. Actually, when and when the man

is not dipping his hand inside his pocket immediately or

picking his phone to transfer something to you immediately,

you may pick Corey, are you with me?

But we have lived that way. God will provide.

Even after yesterday night when he was leaving home in the

morning, he said we need money for this, money for that.

I said God will. God will provide before the

Gray. We closed yesterday as I dealt

about 6-9 PM or something like that, OK?

Some people came visiting me. OK, And by then they were going

to drop an envelope. She was already sleeping on the

bed and by the time I came into to the room, I just carried that

envelope. I threw it at his side, I mean

at her side. Am I talking to somebody now

those people should have waited and come today or come on

Monday, but because there was a prophecy that has gone in the

morning that God will provide. So the provision must come.

These signs are followed them that do what that believe and to

work in that level. I'm saying God require the basic

the elementary just believe, just believe, just believe, just

believe, just believe even for the conception of our Lord Jesus

Christ. OK, it was premise on the belief

of Virgin Mary. So then after the Lord has

spoken unto them, it was received up into heaven, and

they sight on the right hand of God, and they went forth because

they believe they went forth. They they just sit down because

they believe they took step. Hello, divine clemency,

practical vibrancy and spiritual vibrancy.

So they put in practical vibrancy by going forward.

I'm preached everywhere. The Lord walking with them.

The Lord walked with them because they walked with him.

Hello. The Lord with WORK with you if

you WALK with him, If you walk with God, OK, if we work with

you. So they went for the Lord

walking with them and confirming the world.

We signed following and the gospel writer put Amen.

I expect you to also say Amen that Amen.

That means I believe what happened to the disciples can

also happen with me. Somebody again say Amen.

So don't resolve the dimension of.

Walking in the supernatural only to the ordained ministers of

gold. That is the bottom line.

The question we are asked answering this morning is who is

a spiritual warrior? Who?

Qualify to work in the supernatural.

That you are not ordained into the ministry is not an exception

taken from spiritual warfare. That you have a ministry to the

royal cultures must not at any time make you to be disconnected

from Ghost Alter. This is the problem of some of

you. What I mean by royal quarters is

that you don't have a calling into ministry, OK?

You are running your own business and therefore, because

you're a businessman, you think that is a permission for you to

be disconnected from God's altar.

You are working as a professional banker.

You think that is really an essential for you not to be

engaged in spiritual warfare, not to be really fathom and

whatever has to do with spirituality should be delegated

no, that you are into politics and governance.

In fact, is the more reason why you must be truly fathoms

because the terrain is delicately dangerous.

Am I talking to somebody because.

Big Commerce Monday has become the reason or the excuses some

people are given to be disconnected from the altar.

And by that you hope your destiny for the for demonic

attacks, so that while the ministry to the real quarters

must not at any time like you get disconnected from God's

altar, regardless of your circular calling, every believer

must be a man of the altar that must not slack or falter,

regardless of your spiritual and your secular calling.

Every believer. I mean every believer old.

Or. Young, new converts or veterans,

every believer must be a man of the altar that was not slack or

falter. Let's probe for that classicity

of spiritual warriors because it will help us to be able to know

who should be spiritual warrior. To understand the classicity of

spiritual warrior, we must first understand the nature of

spiritual warfare. So maybe today, maybe next week,

we are going to probe into classicity of spiritual warfare.

So if you don't understand the nature of water, you cannot swim

in the river. Hello.

If you if you think or you have the assumption that water is as

solid as a rock, the way you will throw yourself inside the

water, you will sink and never come out.

Am I talking to somebody? So the only thing that can make

an effective swimmer is where you understand the nature of

water. The same way you must understand

the nature of spiritual warfare for you to be effective in

spiritual warfare, to feel, to be an effective spiritual

warrior. If you don't understand the

nature of fire, you will get into trouble with fire.

Is that not? Are we on the same page charge?

So the same thing applied to spiritual warfare.

Only those who have an understanding of what.

Spiritual warfare in tears can become effective spiritual

warriors. However, I observe into this

church that rather than give attention to spirituality, a

number of believer put attention on the technicality of spiritual

warfare. So they pray in some ways, they

look for some items of prayer and they think once they have

that OK, they are full of feeds for spiritual warfare.

Praise the name of the Lord. Once they are harmed with their

bottle of Anointing Royer, they feel that their life is a local

area for the devil. Am I talking to somebody even

when they are living a careless spiritual life, even when they

cannot quote OK John 3 system properly?

OK? They think once they have the

mantle that has been blessed by their Bishop, every spiritual

aspect of their life is covered. Stop deceiving yourself.

Am I talking to somebody or you look like you don't agree?

We better agree, you know, when it comes to spiritual warfare,

part of the thing we must learn is that it is easier to learn

technicality of spiritual welfare than to attain top most

spirituality required to become an effective spiritual warrior.

So the technicalities can be easily learned, and we're going

to. Look at the number of case study

in the Bible that will make you to know that you must prioritize

your spirituality above learning the technicality of spiritual

warfare. So a spiritual warrior must be a

man of unmistakable encounter with Jesus.

That's very fundamental. So a spiritual warrior must be a

man of unmistakable encounter with Jesus.

And when I say that it compresses 2 basic level, the

basic initial encounter of salvation, I have emphasized

that so well when I was when we were examining the Great

Commission mandate, we are Jesus said they that believe so the

initial encounter of salvation level, then from there the

increasing encounter of growth and development level.

So 2 stages stage 1 initial encounter of definite salvation

experience, then the increasing encounter of developmental

spirituality level. I will buttress this essential

characteristics by considering 3 case study.

One each from Acts of the apostle, the gospel, and then

the whole Testament. First act of apostle act chapter

19 from verse 11. And God wrote special miracle by

the hands of Paul, verse 12, so that from his body were brought

onto the sea handkerchiefs or April, and the diseases departed

from them, and the evil spirit well out of

them. Then certain of the Vagabond

Jews were observing the technicalities of use of April.

Of lay of hands exorcist took upon them to call over them

which had evil spirit, the name of the Lord Jesus.

The way we have also mastered the technicality of April call

de Sulaimeta Hallelujah rebel liberty and when he was several

Jews. Hello.

Could I see any personal spiritual life or prayer life

outside that noise making in the confessional prayer.

Am I talking to somebody and you think that survives to be able

to engage in spiritual warfare and the devil will not mess you

up. AM I talking to somebody?

So people with 0 spirituality they were mastering the

technicalities. Have I said it's wrong for us to

gather and say, but I'm saying go beyond that level.

There are certain of Vagabond juice and sources to compound

them to call over them which had evil spirit.

The name of the Lord Jesus saying we adore you by Jesus

whom Paul preaches alone. Baba our cause fire were no

wonderful and more evening but other one one also we pray all

along with him on sing hello. Yes, I respect

so they they master the technicality banking on the

spirituality of Apostle Paul and that is the reality of majority

of today's believer. They master the technicality

banking on the spirituality of their spiritual fathers.

If I want to make my changes of you, OK, I won't teach you this,

but I will not be helping you to grow spiritually.

And there were seven sons of once giver, a Jew and chief of

the priests, which did so. And the evil spirit answered and

said, Jesus, I know, Paul, I know.

But who are you that day when the devil will tell you?

Jesus. I know Babalola.

I know Adepo. Yeah, I know.

Oye depo. I know.

Kumuye. I know.

Eneche. I know.

Oye Kilome. I know.

Hello. But who are you?

What answer will you give? So they were asked, but who are

you? And the man in whom the evil

spirit was limped on them and overcame them, and prevail

against them, so that they fled out of the house naked and

wounded. The embarrassment was thorough.

The disgrace was simply sinful. Am I talking to somebody?

I don't know how to describe it, but the Babu described it

properly. He said the man lived on them,

overcame them, prevailed against them.

Life is a place of conquest and is of contest, but conquest

belong to only those who are spiritually perfect.

Prevail against them so that they fled out of the house naked

and wounded. They wanted to cast out demons.

Demons ended up casting them out.

They knew the technicalities but they lacked the personal

spirituality and this was known to all the Jews and Greek also

dwelling and episodes and fear fell on them.

All and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

In spite of their embarrassment, the Bible said the name of Jesus

was what magnified. So a spiritual warrior must not

leave the copycat lifestyle of the seven sons of Schema.

That's the underlying message. Don't leave the copycats.

Lifestyle of the seven sons of Skiva.

The second case study can be found in Mark Chapter 9 from

Mark 9 · chapter mention

verse 14. Mark Chapter 9 from verse 14

Mark 9 · chapter mention

still about sets of believers, in fact disciples of Jesus

Christ that exercised the technicality but could not

produce the results that was expected of them.

So the disciples of Jesus while dealing with a boy with dumb

spirits at the foot of the mountain, you remember that

story, they fell flatly. They were busy applied the

technicalities that they have observed during Jesus

deliverance administration sessions.

But they lack the depth of this reality of Jesus.

For the seven sons of Skiba, the initial salvation experience was

missing. For this sets of disciple that

we're going to read in Mark Chapter 9 from verse 14, it is

Mark 9 · chapter mention

the increasing level of spirituality that was missing.

Am I talking to somebody? It isn't that they didn't know

Jesus. The sons of Skiba didn't know

Jesus. The disciple knew Jesus there

OK, but the magnitude of problem they confronted they have not

developed to be able to handle that capacity.

So in Spiritual warfare 2, there's a need for you to

Malawi. Hallelujah.

Yes you are, you are, you are top there.

The devil will slap you and you may not recover from the

deafness. Am I talking to somebody?

And when he came to his disciples, that is Jesus

returning from the month of Transfiguration, He went to that

mountain with just a few of them.

He left the others at the foot of the mountain.

He saw a great multitude about them.

And describe questioning with them.

And straight away all the people, when they beheld him,

were greatly amazed, and running to him, saluted him.

And the heart describes what question?

Ye. With my disciples and one of

multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought on to

thee my son, which had a dumb spirit, and wheresoever he take

it in, he tear it in, and he format and not set with his

teeth and pin it away. And I speak to the disciple that

they should cast him out and they could not.

This same set of disciple that went forth and were casting out

demo confronted one demo and the Bible said they could not cast

it out. So don't operate on the level of

yesterday annoying thing. Always take yourself.

Am I still as fit as I ought to be have?

I grown as I ought to grew. Am I talking to somebody?

And they brought him unto him, and they saw him straight away.

The spirit tear him, and it fell on the ground and wallowed for

me. And he asked his father, How

long is it a go since this unto him?

And he said of a child, praise the name of the law, and often

time it. It had cast him into the fire,

into the waters to destroy him. But if that can do anything,

have compassion on us and airports.

Jesus said unto him, If thou can believe, all things are possible

to him that believe it. So the kind of belief here is

the belief to receive miracle, not the belief to perform

miracle. Hello.

So you cannot be a spiritual warrior, OK, and only operate on

the belief to receive miracle, you must operate us.

You must scale up to the belief level of performing miracle.

I don't know what that's what I'm saying.

And straight away the father of Jacquard out and said, with dear

Lord, I believe, help thou my own.

Belief. That's the message for another

day. When Jesus saw that the people

came running together, he rebuked the found Spirit, saying

unto him, Thou dumb and death spirit, I shall be come out of

him and enter no more into him. It was a complete deliverance,

which suggests that in the past somebody must have cast out that

demo, and after some time the demo returned.

But this time and I just said, Go out of him, never return to

him. And we cried and read him so,

and came out of him, and he was as one dead, and so much that

many said he is dead. But Jesus took him by the hand

and lifted him up, and they are rules.

And when he was coming to the house, his disciple asked him

privately, Why could not we cast him out so as a spiritual

warrior? Part of the thing you must

engage in properly is to review yourself exactly yourself,

whether you are still in faith. Always check your spiritual

vitals. Just as we have medical vitals

that we check, there are spiritual vitals that you must

check regularly. Am I talking to somebody?

When you go to the hospital for check on, they will check your

blood pressure, they will check your sugar level, they will

check your temperature. All these are viters, am I

right? So in the same way there are

there are spiritual viters that you must check regularly.

The disciples said to Jesus, you have set us out, we have cast

out demons, we have done this, we have done that, OK, But in

this way, in this matter, we fail.

Why did we fail? So always do spiritual check on

for yourself, check your spiritual vitals.

Are you still in faith? Are you still as fervent as you

ought to be? So that the devil will not

double cross you, so that the devil will.

The path of that class will not come suddenly on you and create

calamity and throw you into tragedy.

Am I talking to somebody? Your spiritual vital.

OK, how effective are you still on your own time, Your quiet

time? Your study of the Word of God?

Am I talking to somebody? Attendance of prayer meeting?

What is your attitude to the faith of God?

You want to be truthful 100% in the past, but now you can

carelessly and conveniently tell lies and nothing will prick your

spirit. You are not taking your

spiritual vital. AM I talking to somebody so they

query Jesus? Why could not we cast him out

but for us when we fail either physically or spiritually,

rather than. Introspect, OK, we come up with

the attitude of somebody who want to put, we have to put the

blame. So you ask questions like, why

me? Why God AM I talking to

somebody, a woman supposed to watch me once of Allua quilo de

Tacuna nebula Tishi Apollo Tishi.

Why are you not allowed by? Why are you all affected by To

be truthful? To yourself.

And he said unto them, This kind can comfort by nothing, but by

prayer and fast. The area where they fail in the

area of consecration. Taking time to play and to do

all and to fast. You know you can get so consumed

in the world and you are getting a result that you don't refire,

you don't refuel. You are expending energy, OK,

but you are not building energy. Am I talking to somebody?

This is what was said. You have expended the momentum,

so go on fast and pray again and you will discover that these

things will begin to happen for you easily.

Am I talking to somebody? So the Initia belief level,

there's a level to which it will carry you, but there was also a

commitment to the increasing level of developing in the

things of the Spirit. So this also was simply saying

today. How could you?

Who? Love the comfort of the foot of

the mountain, aspire or convert to match the spiritual power of

the man who loves to stay alone with God in the cold on the

mountain. That was the scenario of what

happened. This was was coming from the

Mount of Transfiguration. Are you with me in the codes of

the month of trans recreation? They were enjoying the comfort

of the foot of the mountain. The result will be different.

Am I talking to somebody? The result with what will be

different? Somebody.

Somebody that come to the church, come to the pulpit just

casually OK, and it is just on the Sunday morning when you

remember that we preached that decided to open the Bible and

say OK and somebody was engrossed himself in the word of

God, meditation all through the week.

In the course of the night he wakes up to pray, to study, to

write down praise. The name of the result cannot be

the same. AM I talking to somebody?

The result cannot be what you're yato.

I love the way our father used to think about bor muscle.

Am I talking to somebody?

So to be to be spiritual, I mean to be top notch spiritually, OK,

The place of divine clemency, the place of practical vibrancy

and then the place of spiritual fathers.

These are what it takes to be top notch spiritually.

So a spiritual warrior most prioritise spirituality are both

technicalities or methodologies. So and that will make me to take

us through the last example, the last case study.

That we found in the Old Testament in Second King chapter

4 from verse 17, a young man died, and then the prophet

Elijah put his rod in the hand of his servant Gaza Go and lay

it on the sick body, and he grabbed the road.

And he ran like Mars, and he got there and he laid there.

Are you with me? And if the boy was fainting

before the boy now, he would die properly.

He came back to the man of God. The man of God said go again.

He went against every other. Why?

Because the efficacy of the road is in the spirituality of the

man holding the road. Hello Pamosi lady.

I see logo. Are you with me?

It will it will be an ordinary stick.

Am I talking to somebody so. The efficacy of the road is the

displeasure of the man holding the road.

And the woman conceived. Verse 17 of Second Kings,

2 Kings 4 · chapter mention

chapter 4. And bear his son at that season,

that Elijah has said unto her, according to the time of life.

And when the child was grown, it fell on the day that he went out

to his father to the reapers. We are reading the background to

the story of the boy that died. And Elijah was given the role to

go and resurrect him. That child was a miracle child

that came as a result of the prophecy of prophet Elijah.

But the boy one day died. And he said unto his father, My

head, my head. And he said to a lad, Carry him

to his mother. Hello Wasu Kusibio.

It was secondly, and it's part of the message we are preaching

people who are sourced their spirituality to others.

OK, I will control simple spirituality.

Nobody were in charge. And he said to his father, the

boy, OK, said to his father, my head, my head.

And what was the answer of the father?

And he said to Elan, carry him to his mother,

financially, spiritually. Am I talking to somebody?

You understand that guy? What's the name?

Nigeria Spirituality. They are not there.

Supervisory ministry. Hallelujah.

None. Am I talking to somebody?

You must be there. Are you listening to me?

I can go on and on and not put this verse of the Scripture.

It's too bad. And when the child

was grown, he fell already that he went out to his father, to

the reapers. And he said to his father, my

head, my head, And he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother.

When men slept, when men do what slept in the day, when Jesus

performed that miracle of feeding 5000 they look for where

to get what to be used to feed the people.

They only get from a lot, and then by the time they go from

the land, the scriptures say. And the man sat down to do what?

To hit the bread of a lad. And

when he had taken him and brought him to his mother, he

sat on her knees till noon and then died.

He did not even step out to go and check all matrimonial paper.

OK, well you share, you share, you share, you share, you say

and you think once you put bread on the table you have satisfied

all writers. There's no those other

responsibility tools are your responsibility.

And let me go on. Some of them even fell for the

family. It is still this wife that is

feeding them. The only thing they know how to

do is how to sleep with their wife and put her in the mother's

way. And she went, oh, look at God

bless mothers. We got home, yes, last Sunday

and my wife said, hey, celebrate Hawaii, I need Shoshi.

So I think she was right. Mothers, I celebrate you.

I said mothers, I celebrate you. Ekushi Ekushi Oma EKU Sharma EKU

Shoko. One moment.

What's your name? Roko.

My back, My back, My back, My back, My back, my back.

Promise. Saying hello.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah mothers again, I celebrate you.

And she went home. Is this is it an easy task to go

carrying a baby and laid him on the bed of the man of gold and

shut the door onto upon him and went out?

And she called on to her husband, and said, Send me, I

pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the houses, that I

may run to the man of God. And.

Come again, see the woman doing the running.

And he said, wherefore without go to him today it is neither

new moon nor Sabbath. I said it shall be way if if he

let me see us. Suggested to the man that the

boy you said to me I'd die. I want to go to the man of go.

The man is of 0 spirituality. We say don't go, let us bury

him. Do you understand what I'm

saying? Oh yeah.

Powerful, that's what. Are you following me first word

now 24 There's a shadow and house.

And said to her servant Dr. And go forward slack, not die riding

for me, except IBD. So she went and came unto the

man of God to mount Camen, and it came to pass where the man of

God saw her, and far off that he said to Gaza his servant,

Behold, Yonder is that. Tsunami run.

Now I pray to meet her and say unto her, Is it well with he?

Is it well with her husband? Is it well with her husband?

It means every time that woman goes to that man of God, she

always bring up the matter of the husband.

Then what followed? Is it where with the child?

So what were you not there? And the answer it is where and

when she came to the man of God to the hill.

That was why she went up to the hill.

She caught him by the feet, but as I came there to throws the

eye away. And the man of God said, let her

elude, for our soul is fixed within her.

And the Lord had eat it from me and had not told me.

That's a message for another day.

Then to say, Did I desire son of my law?

Did I not say, Do not deceive me?

Then he said together, guide of thy loin, and take my staff in

thy hand, and go thy way. If thou meet any man, salute him

not. These are the technicalities.

And if any salute thee, answer him not agree, and lay my staff

upon the face of the child. And as I passed all the

technicalities. But because he lacked the

spirituality, he could not produce the spiritual results.

And the mother of that said, as a lot lived and as the solely I

will not leave the and the arrows and followed her, and as

I passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of

the child, but there was neither voice nor hearing.

Wherefore he went again to meet him and told him, say the child

is not awake. Why?

The man that was carrying the role did not have the

spirituality. He must start the technicality,

but he lack what the spirituality.

Eru, JJ. You need fire in your bones.

Life is a place of constant battle.

Spiritual warfare is a mandatory spiritual vocation that we all

pass through and except we are well prepared, except we are

spiritually feed. Who will be totally?

Defeated, rise on your feet and cry to God and say Lord, set me

up please. Awake me, awake me, Awake me,

awake me, awake me from every former spiritual slumber.

I can't hear you pray. I can't hear you pray.

I can't hear you pray. Deliver me love from this manner

of cool and casual fat life. Father, deliver me from this

cool and casual kind of fat life.

Take me with you to the mountain top.

Familiar wallos OK bemila sibi giga uluajo my babies bemilosi

Bemi? Ask the Lord, Ask the Lord.

Ask the Lord to kindle the fire of revival in you, to pick you

up from your falling stage, to put in you the grace to be

fathered in spirit, to be hope and do it spiritually.

To be the diligent kind of believer that you want to be.

To become the firebrand brother that you want to be, the

firebrand sister that you want to be.

No devil will ever mess up around you again.

In Jesus name we pray, our two hands lifting.

May the grace of God come upon you are fresh.

May you no longer be the same again.

May the Lord restore the fire that you have lost.

May the Lord increase the fire that you have gained in the name

of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. 3

thunders Hallelujah quickly. God bless you.
