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

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

  3. knowledge. The Word of God is an

  4. illumination which gives direction.

  5. Remember, place as Reverend was far alone illuminates your mind

  6. with the Word of God with all simplicity and clarity.

  7. It's my great joy to welcome you back to the School of Wisdom.

  8. Of course, in the last four weeks, we have not engaged any

  9. new topic. Rather, we have been carrying

  10. out a review of the few of the topics that I and others have

  11. preached from this author in the last one year.

  12. And it's been wonderful session all through the month of

  13. October. And I must bring special

  14. commendations to representatives of the different units of the

  15. church that made presentations during the war impasse session.

  16. The Lord bless you very richly in the name of Jesus.

  17. And so today we are engaging a fresh attention that also

  18. require your special attention for us to gain proper

  19. comprehension. So you must give what we are

  20. engaging today a very special attention to gain proper

  21. comprehension of the topic. And the topic is passion for

  22. impact. Somebody say that after me.

  23. Passion for impact. I can't hear that sister.

  24. Let the brothers join the sisters to say it.

  25. God bless you in the name of Jesus.

  26. And of course, for you to pay the kind of aspect attention

  27. that I require from you, you need to engage your classroom

  28. mind of learning and not just the church mind of praying and

  29. receiving blessings. You know when people come to

  30. church, ordinarily they come with the church mind of praying

  31. and receiving blessings. Not many.

  32. Remember that the church is not only a sanctuary, the church is

  33. equally a school. And so when you come, you come

  34. with the 2 dimensions of mind, the church mind to receive, to

  35. pray and receive blessings. But also more importantly, you

  36. come with the classroom mind of learning.

  37. Classroom mind of what learning. The Lord bless you as you do

  38. that in a fresh way this morning in Jesus name, passion for

  39. impact. You are created for impact.

  40. You are not just created to pass through or live this your one

  41. lifetime without a purpose to accomplish so.

  42. You are created for impact. And I do say to people that it

  43. is great that you live and you are remembered for good.

  44. It is bad that you live and you are remembered for evil, but it

  45. is worse that you are remembered for nothing.

  46. Am I talking to somebody good? That you live your one lifetime

  47. where and you are remember for good, but that you live your one

  48. lifetime and you are remember for evil, but the worst of it is

  49. that you are remember for nothing.

  50. Say I will be remember for something good.

  51. I will be remember for something great.

  52. Now if you will be remembered for something good, then you

  53. must engage your passion. You must engage your passion.

  54. So this morning we are trying to focus for some from us on the

  55. seat of passion in your being, the seat of passion in your

  56. being where passion reside in you, the seat of passion in your

  57. being. You know a man has you have been

  58. taught in the past is a tripartite being.

  59. Man is a tripartite being and every man exhibit 3 basic

  60. realities. Man is a spirit living in a body

  61. that is controlled by the soul. Man is a tripartite being.

  62. So there are three dimension to every man and because of that

  63. every man exhibits 3 basic realities.

  64. What are they? Man is a spirit living in a body

  65. that is controlled by the soul. So every man therefore has this

  66. following capabilities. What are they?

  67. Man has the spiritual capability to connect to the unseen realm

  68. of spiritual reality. There's an unseen realm, the

  69. invisible realm of spiritual reality.

  70. And because man is a spirit, every man possesses that

  71. capability to connect with the unseen realm of spiritual

  72. reality. And of course, it's unfortunate

  73. that not many are living in the consciousness of their spiritual

  74. reality. So the consciousness or

  75. otherwise of knowing that your spiritual capability depends on

  76. the level of your spiritual mindedness, your level of

  77. spiritual mindedness, OK, we dictate the degree to which we

  78. live in the consciousness of your spiritual reality.

  79. But a great number of people, young persons in particular,

  80. they sleep, they wake, they while away time, they press

  81. their phone and they think that is all to life.

  82. They think that is all to life. Life is more real than the

  83. physical things you are related with on day-to-day basis.

  84. Am I talking to somebody? So you must be so spiritually

  85. minded to awaken your spiritual consciousness to the reality of

  86. your spiritual capability. So because you are a spirit, OK,

  87. you have that capability to also connect to the on same realm of

  88. spiritual reality. And if you don't mind the things

  89. of the spirit, if you are that type that don't mind the things

  90. of the spirit, you will think everything about human existence

  91. start and hence in physical activities only.

  92. If you don't wake up your spiritual consciousness and

  93. start to mind or give attention to the things of the spirit, you

  94. will wrongly think that everything about your existence

  95. start and end in physical activities only.

  96. Wake up eats, play 5 for side soccer, football and you know go

  97. to your place of work, hand your salary, eat good food.

  98. If you don't mind the things of the spirit and wake up your

  99. spiritual consciousness to your spiritual capability and that

  100. there's a reality that we eventually or is already

  101. affecting your life that is deeply spiritual.

  102. You will continue to live and think that everything by human

  103. existence start and end in physical activities.

  104. Only. Tell your neighbor life does not

  105. start and end in only physical activities.

  106. Life does not start and end only in engaging in social

  107. activities. So there is the spiritual

  108. dimension to life that control every other aspects of of life.

  109. Hallelujah #2 capability of man, because man is a tripartite

  110. being, is that man possesses the mind, which is a component of

  111. the soul. The second dimension to the

  112. tripartite being that man is so man, Man possesses the mind.

  113. And for what purpose? For the purpose of

  114. psychoanalysis and rationalisation, OK, it's not

  115. everything that life jumps at you, that you are set, Am I

  116. talking to somebody? It's not everything you have the

  117. prompted to do that you engage yourself in.

  118. It's not everything that is popular that everything

  119. everybody goes after that you also run after am I talking to

  120. somebody? But a situation whereby you

  121. don't realize that you are in soul and in your soul you have

  122. the mind. Am I talking to somebody and

  123. your mind is given to you for psychoanalysis and

  124. rationalisation? You think through issues, OK.

  125. And from your thinking through issues you are able to come up

  126. with your own convictions. Am I talking to somebody?

  127. So when I use the word psychoanalysis and

  128. rationalisation, that's what I mean.

  129. Why are you doing it? Everybody is doing it.

  130. Why do you want it? I can't.

  131. I don't know. I thought I just like it.

  132. There must be a reason and a purpose for everything you do.

  133. And until you learn to engage your mind for psychoanalysis and

  134. rationalization, you will not optimize your mind.

  135. Tell somebody optimize your mind so and you need to do that

  136. because it is by doing so that are able to maintain a balance

  137. between spiritual reality, physical activities and social

  138. order. I will explain it is when you

  139. put your mind, which is a capability in you because you're

  140. a tripartite man that's made-up of the spirit and then the soul.

  141. And inside your soul you have an aspect of it that is called the

  142. mind for psychoanalysis and rationalization.

  143. And when you put your mind to good use, you are able to

  144. maintain a balance between spiritual reality.

  145. I already explained to you that spiritual reality exists.

  146. Do you agree with that? Spiritual reality exists.

  147. There is a word beyond your physical reality.

  148. There's a world outside this physical environment in which we

  149. live in. Am I talking to somebody?

  150. And so because of that, there's a need for you to have a balance

  151. between the spiritual reality and then your physical

  152. activities because most of the spiritual activity you see are

  153. big control from the spiritual realm.

  154. Hello. So stop thinking that everything

  155. is kana and casual. Not everything is casual, not

  156. everything is ordinary. There's always a spiritual

  157. supernatural dimension to many things that you see around,

  158. including version, including slangs.

  159. Am I talking to somebody including ideas and several

  160. things that affects human population.

  161. So, and until you train your mind spiritually for

  162. psychoanalysis and rationalization, you may not

  163. succeed to be able to maintain the needed balance between

  164. spiritual reality, physical activities and social order.

  165. Social order, you know, most of the time what regulate our

  166. society as social order. Part of the social order is this

  167. is the is the fact that we are the female gender.

  168. We are the male gender. OK.

  169. Part of the social order that God institutionalized is that

  170. when it comes to the issue of marriage, the male gender and

  171. the female gender come together. But today we are see a kind of

  172. disorder as a result of some people who cannot allow God in

  173. to influence their mind as to be able to strike a balance between

  174. spiritual reality, physical activities and social order.

  175. Part of the social order that God instituted is that there

  176. must be respect for institutions.

  177. Where you have institutions of authority, that must be respect.

  178. There must be regard for institution, praise the name of

  179. the Lord, but where there's no balance between spirituality,

  180. physical activity and social order.

  181. So people will come up with ideas, OK, that will inspire you

  182. to be rebellious against authority and you think you are

  183. doing the right thing because you have not been able to

  184. successfully allow God OK to have a place in your mind dream.

  185. Am I talking to somebody? So and I can go on and on and on

  186. citing instances of social orders that have been disrupted

  187. today. But if people will allow the

  188. word of God to renew their mind, they won't follow the evil

  189. trend. Am I talking to somebody?

  190. So social order comes in different dimension today, OK,

  191. The social order of they reach the affluent, the people who are

  192. advantage, OK, making sure that they help the poor, OK.

  193. There's also a disruption to that.

  194. We are by instead of helping the poor, people now oppress the

  195. poor and take advantage of the poor.

  196. And then they come up with the philosophy that the end justify

  197. the means. Am I talking to somebody now all

  198. of this because people in a way or in a sense has allowed their

  199. mind to be taken over and ceased.

  200. OK, from its connection to God's spiritual order.

  201. And so and once there's a violation of God's spiritual

  202. order in the spiritual realm, there will be social disorder in

  203. the physical realm. Once there's a violation of

  204. because spiritual order, you discover that what you have in

  205. the physical realm is social disorder, and social disorder

  206. will be celebrated as the right thing.

  207. Then man has the dead capability because it's a tripartite being,

  208. spirit, soul and body. So on the 3rd dimension, man has

  209. the body to carry out physical activities and to express a

  210. subconscious reality. So you have your physical body,

  211. the organs of your physical body, your physical expression,

  212. your physical frame, the Physiology of your, the anatomy

  213. and the Physiology of your being.

  214. That is your body. Am I talking to somebody?

  215. The frame, the organs, that is the anatomy of your physical

  216. vein, that the Physiology of your physical vein is how those

  217. organs now work. OK, interrelatedly, that's the

  218. Physiology of your physical vein.

  219. So you have a body to carry out your physical activity and to

  220. express your subconscious reality.

  221. So the physiological, biochemical mechanism is not the

  222. only thing, OK, that is controlling your physical being.

  223. Am I talking to somebody? Now?

  224. Let me say, for example, you speak hello before you speak.

  225. Are you with me? You were, you were to some level

  226. apart from that, that you are thinking.

  227. OK, you were thinking OK, but what did you do?

  228. Consciously, OK, to translate your thoughts to speech and even

  229. that thoughts, from where did it enter your mind?

  230. Have you ever given it a thought?

  231. Hello. Don't forget I told you that God

  232. has given you a mind for psychoanalysis and

  233. rationalisation. We are already doing that.

  234. Now sit down and think about it, OK?

  235. I started to think that idea you are thinking about, from where

  236. did it come from to jump into your mind, to relocate into your

  237. mind. So if you don't have any

  238. empirical explanation for it, OK, that is A + A equals to B.

  239. Are you with me? OK, certainly you there is a

  240. subconsciousness that is controlling even your physical

  241. reality. Am I talking to somebody?

  242. So you speak as instructed by your mind.

  243. We are not tracing it. What comes out of your mouth,

  244. OK, was once in your mind? Jesus said it from the abundance

  245. of the art the mouth does what? Speak it, OK?

  246. But what the mind translated to the mouth?

  247. OK, from where did it go to the mind?

  248. I told you that we are in a serious session, that you don't

  249. attend this session with just the church mind of Pastor.

  250. Pray for me. I am blessed you are attending

  251. me with a classroom mind to learn.

  252. So you speak as instructed by your mind.

  253. Why? Because your mind has been

  254. inspired by your spirit. So what's your mind sponsored

  255. into your mouth? OK, it's actually coming from a

  256. spirit. It could be your spirit.

  257. It could be the spirit of God. It could be demonic spirit.

  258. I pray in the name of Jesus. Demonic spirit will not gain

  259. access to your mind when you do good things.

  260. Certainly the Spirit of God is at work when you engage in doing

  261. evil. I later regret it.

  262. Certainly the spirit of the devil is at work.

  263. The spirit of the devil put it in your mind, OK, and then you

  264. say it or you hacked it out. So where do you think the things

  265. you see come from? I said you speak as instructed

  266. by your mind that is inspired by a spirit.

  267. It could be your spirit, it could be God spirit, it could be

  268. any other spirit. So your speech organ, which is

  269. your physical reality. We are marrying the three now

  270. this the spirit, the mind, OK, which is in the soul, and then

  271. the physical organ. So your speech organ, you know

  272. what? They are OK, It's a it's a mere

  273. physical vibration. The reason you are able to speak

  274. is because there's vibration in your physical organ.

  275. Now, how does that vibration result into sensible

  276. communication? So the reason you are able to

  277. speak because there are certain vibration that takes place in

  278. your in your speech organ. But why is he now you are just

  279. BlackBerry? OK, I'm hearing like cats or

  280. mowing like a cow. Am I talking to somebody?

  281. And what is coming out of you is a sensible communication.

  282. It means there's a subconsciousness that is

  283. dictating what you are saying. So, and that is why you must

  284. accept that you are a reality beyond your physical expression.

  285. You are a reality beyond your skeletal appearance.

  286. You are a reality beyond your muscle.

  287. Am I talking to somebody? So why will you now live your

  288. life based only on your physical appearance and then you judge

  289. yourself? Because I am dark skin, I don't

  290. think I fit in and I'm able to do it because I am, I am.

  291. I am short in status. I know.

  292. No, no, no, no, no, no. Even when you have physical

  293. disability. So there is more to you than

  294. your physical appearance. Am I talking to somebody that is

  295. more to you than your physical appearance?

  296. So like I said earlier, it is your spirit that feed your mind

  297. with codes. So your spirit feed your mind

  298. with codes that are interpreted by your mind.

  299. That's why you are able to communicate and make sense.

  300. That's why the vibration from your speech organ OK can

  301. communicate sensibly. Because you are a spirit being

  302. and your spirit is feeding your mind with calls that only your

  303. mind can interpret before they are expressed as speech to

  304. vibration that your physical focal organs generates.

  305. Now, if I'm not trained to play the keyboard, are we together?

  306. I will get there. I will be pressing the key and

  307. it will not be harmonious. But somebody that has been

  308. trained to OK to know how to sequence the key, which one to

  309. press before which one you will do the thing.

  310. As we saw, harmonious and melodious.

  311. In fact, it can even communicate message, even percussion, the

  312. gaggle drum. OK, by the time somebody get

  313. there and he's just beating it, somebody will say, come on, stop

  314. disturbing us because he doesn't know.

  315. It's not learn on how to sequence the vibration.

  316. Am I making sense to somebody? So when you now speak, it is

  317. your spirit that supplied the codes to your mind.

  318. They might now sequence those code and translate it to

  319. vibrations in your speech organ and therefore you are able to

  320. make sense when you speak as against just makes sound like

  321. ordinary animal. So it is your spirit that fills

  322. your mind with codes. Those codes are interpreted by

  323. your mind and they are expressed as speech through the vibration

  324. that your physical focal organ generates.

  325. So there's a distinction between the sound you make where you are

  326. pleased different from the one you make where you are in pain.

  327. Do you agree? Why?

  328. Because there's a subconsciousness to you that you

  329. yourself cannot lay hands on. But it's very real.

  330. Hello. There's a subconscious reality

  331. that give meaning to your physical reality, that gives

  332. assistance to your physical reality, that allow your

  333. physical reality to make sense. And I'm using the typical

  334. example of the fact that man can communicate sense because he has

  335. a subconsciousness that is called his spirit that supply

  336. codes to his mind. And those codes from the mind

  337. trans from the vibrations in the speech organ communicate sense.

  338. And and of course, a typical example is that the sound you

  339. make when you are pleased for the while you make when you are

  340. in pain. There are two different things.

  341. Am I talking to somebody? So your mind is therefore very

  342. critical to your spiritual sadness and your practical life

  343. achievements. We are trying to discover or

  344. trace the seeds of passion. The topic is passion for impact.

  345. So this passion, where can we locate it in your bin?

  346. Second Timothy 17 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear,

  347. but of power and of love, and of a signed mind, sound mind.

  348. So the greatest battle, therefore are fought and won in

  349. the mind. So whether a man would be up and

  350. drained or cool or casual is his function of the state of his

  351. mind. Whether a man with a red hot or

  352. lukewarm is a function of the state of his mind.

  353. Whether a man will be careful or carefree is a function of the

  354. state of his mind. Whether a person will be lazy or

  355. diligent is a function of the state of his mind.

  356. Whether a person will have drive for sources, hello or will not

  357. bother anything goes is this function of the state of what is

  358. mine and the Scripture is saying God has not given us that spirit

  359. that we allow our mind to be lazy and fearful witness.

  360. If your spirit is sound, the kind of code that will be

  361. supplied to your mind will not be code.

  362. Is somebody here. He has not given us bit of fear,

  363. but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

  364. And I'm saying that the greatest battle are fought and won in the

  365. mind. A weak man is not one that lacks

  366. physical ability, but the one that has a weak mind a weak man

  367. is not one that lacks physical ability, but the one that has

  368. what a weak mind. Sometimes we look at some of

  369. these fiscally disadvantaged people rather than appreciate

  370. that they are engaging their mind.

  371. Can you note your mind press the name of the law?

  372. But rather you should learn from him that in spite of his

  373. physical disadvantage, you see, has the courage to go for great

  374. things, to attempt great things. And here you have nothing

  375. happened to your physical body. You are as lazy as Deadwood, you

  376. are as unproductive as barren land.

  377. Am I talking to somebody? The topic is passion for what

  378. impact? So the mind is the interchange

  379. centre between the spirit and the body is the interchange

  380. centre between the spirit and the body.

  381. It receives from the spirit and translate it to the body.

  382. It also receive from the body and translate it to the spirit

  383. is the interchange centre. Am I talking to somebody?

  384. And that's why I discussed it. Take it to what you hear because

  385. if you allow you're here to receive negative thing, it can

  386. poison your mind and therefore make your spirit weak.

  387. So the mind is so central to the life of a man, OK, that you must

  388. guard it jonelessly. But many of you are not careful.

  389. You allow your mind OK to be treated like a garbage.

  390. Anybody can just go into the studio and say all manners of

  391. nonsense, OK? And that is what you plug in

  392. your ear every time listening to.

  393. AM I talking to somebody? Anybody can just go on the

  394. social media, on the TikTok, OK and just put all manners of

  395. nonsense. And that is what you you take

  396. the light in watching and then you are on top of the world

  397. whereas your mind is being damaged.

  398. So understand your mind is the is the interchange centre

  399. between your spirit and your body.

  400. It will receive from your spirit there and translate it to your

  401. body for execution. And it can also receive from the

  402. body and translate it to your spirit for pollution.

  403. I pray in the name of Jesus. I pray in the name of Jesus.

  404. Henceforth you will be wise enough to guard your heart in

  405. the name of Jesus. So it receives ritual code from

  406. the Spirit to make it make sense to the body.

  407. So the mind will receive spiritual code from the Spirit

  408. and allow those code to make sense to the body.

  409. And it also exercise control over the physical sense organ

  410. from proper bodily coordination. Are you with me as a young lady?

  411. A man? A man touches you.

  412. OK. If he doesn't enter your mind

  413. OK, you won't think about allowing the man to fornicate

  414. with you. Hello.

  415. A lady exposes herself indecently.

  416. OK, if you have been guiding your heart, you have been

  417. protecting your mind properly. OK, that that first look is a

  418. mistake. A second look will never take

  419. place. But on your phone, that is where

  420. you want to go back again, Want to go back to it again and see

  421. it again and look at it again and again and again.

  422. Why? Because the mind is the

  423. interchange centre. It can receive from the flesh

  424. and when it's received from the flesh, you meditate on it.

  425. What are supposed to throw out or shut the door again, your

  426. spirit gets polluted and before you know what is happening, you

  427. are baptized with the Spirit of fornication.

  428. As many of you that in one way or the other phonography is

  429. destroy your destiny. Receive deliverance in the name

  430. of Jesus. Receive deliverance in the name

  431. of Jesus. Because rather than I have

  432. passion for what is right, you will not have passion for lost.

  433. The topic is passion for impact. So let's put it this way.

  434. The inner man is spiritual. The inner man is what spiritual,

  435. but it requires the body to have physical expression.

  436. Your inner man that is spiritual need your physical body need

  437. your flesh to have physical expression.

  438. So if your inner man is sweet, if your inner man is good, it

  439. still require your mouth to speak good things, to speak with

  440. wisdom, to speak words of grace that gives life praise the name

  441. of the Lord. But if your inner man, OK, is

  442. spiritual defective, OK, that is that defect in your inner man

  443. will still require your mouth to 'cause people to say forgot

  444. words. Am I talking to somebody?

  445. So your inner man is spiritual but require your flesh, your

  446. physical body to a physical expression.

  447. Then this interaction between the flesh and the spirit is

  448. coordinated by the mind. The mind is the coordinator.

  449. So I want to plead with you to guide against suspension of the

  450. mind or confusion in your mind. You can have spiritually minded

  451. people who suspend their mind and everybody can just come to

  452. them in the name of God's sake and anything they say they will

  453. not subject to psychoanalysis and rationalization.

  454. So never because you are a spiritually minded person,

  455. suspend your mind. Don't allow yourself to be

  456. deceived, particularly in these last days when the Scriptures

  457. and Jesus said many false prophets, we multiply.

  458. Am I talking to somebody? I said it sometimes ago from

  459. these puppies that even when you come to church, even this

  460. church, don't lock your mind at home in your wardrobe because

  461. there are many believers, OK, when they are putting on the

  462. address to come to church, they are locking up their mind inside

  463. their wardrobe. And so they call mind absence to

  464. come to church, Mind absence. And they come to and they set

  465. the session to them. They buy it and therefore their

  466. destinies are destroyed. So ensure that you don't suspend

  467. your mind #2 guy against mind confusion.

  468. Do allow your mind to be confused.

  469. If any of this happen, it will result either into mental

  470. insanity or spiritual depravity. Whether you allow suspension of

  471. the mind or you allow your mind to be confused can result either

  472. in mental insanity. You do.

  473. You do foolish things that you think you are right, you'll be

  474. wasting away and you think you are fulfilling destiny.

  475. You know an insane person that is sleeping under the bridge and

  476. is eating from the garbage. He thinks he thinks he's in a

  477. mansion. Is that not so?

  478. You will be you will be, you will be gardening junks.

  479. OK, and you will think he's he's gardening assets.

  480. He will pick a discarded plate and hold it like a thief is

  481. holding the steering of a Lexus. Jeep is driving his car.

  482. Why? Insanity.

  483. The same thing goes for many people.

  484. OK, many insane people that are not wearing dirty clothes is the

  485. reason they will. They will expose their nakedness

  486. and they will think they are the best of the best.

  487. Am I talking to somebody? And they will think they are on

  488. top of the world. So a suspension of the mind or a

  489. confusion in the mind will result into either mental

  490. insanity or spiritual depravity. Romance 128 And even as they did

  491. not like to retain God in their knowledge, they did not like to

  492. retain God in their mind, because the mind is the seat of

  493. knowledge. Am I talking to somebody?

  494. The mind is the seat of what knowledge?

  495. Everything you know is sitting in your mind.

  496. Your your brain is only a physical expression of the mind.

  497. Hello, your brain is only what? A physical expression of the

  498. mind. The second expression of your

  499. mind is your heart. Do you know that the art also

  500. retain knowledge? In fact, when you read the

  501. scripture over and over again, the scripture regarded the art

  502. as the seat of word of knowledge.

  503. A very highly placed neurosurgeon shared with me many

  504. years ago, he has served for a very long time as a medical

  505. director of a reputable teaching hospital in this country before

  506. he came on the puppet and he became the Bishop of the

  507. Anglican downstairs in quarrel. And while we're interacting

  508. together, he was sharing about a man that was was stabbed.

  509. Hello, a man that was stabbed and he died.

  510. So when he died, OK, they discovered that he may not be

  511. able to survive it. So his art was not trans

  512. transplanted into another elderly man that was about to

  513. die. Now in the hospital bed we had

  514. the kept the elderly man that received the heart of the man

  515. that was stabbed. A mana came in to visit the

  516. elderly man and the elderly man started to to scream to the

  517. heart OK, and then started to say the things that happen when

  518. the man that holds the heart was about to die.

  519. Are you with me? It was not the brain that was

  520. transplanted. It was the heart that was what

  521. transplanted. And so from there, from there

  522. research went on and I discover that the brain is not only the

  523. retainer of information, the art also retain information proofing

  524. the scripture, right? Am I talking to somebody?

  525. So as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge,

  526. and I'm saying the retainer for knowledge in man, could that be

  527. the brain or what? The heart?

  528. So those who did not retain God in their knowledge, in their

  529. mind, in their hand, God gave them over to a repropriate mind,

  530. a mind of depravity, to do those things which are not convenient,

  531. those things which are not correct, and they are

  532. celebrating it as the right things.

  533. So the mind is very critical to the coordination of a man's

  534. total existence. So if you get the control of

  535. your mind, you will get the control of your destiny.

  536. If you lose your mind, you lose your destiny.

  537. And that's why education, the right kind of education, matters

  538. a lot. That's why you will see that

  539. readers always have edge over those who don't read.

  540. So the mind is very critical to the coordination of a man's

  541. total assistance. And that is why when your spirit

  542. is safe, your mind must be renewed.

  543. That's on the level we are driving somewhere we are trying

  544. to discover or establish that the mind is the seat of passion.

  545. Is the seat of what passion and the mind is so critical that

  546. when your spirit is saved, there's still the requirement

  547. that your mind must be renewed and your body must be

  548. sanctified. So salvation is the total

  549. package. Testament salvation is the total

  550. package. Your spirit is saved, your mind

  551. renewed, and then your body sanctified.

  552. So in addition to the sanctification or renewal of the

  553. mind for only living, the mind also must be positively engaged.

  554. Not only positively engaged, it must be kept proactively alert.

  555. So your mind must not be high. Do I said it from this group

  556. many years ago that they say an idle hand is the devil's

  557. workshop. I mean workshop.

  558. But I say unto you, and I do mine is the devil's bedroom.

  559. If the idle hand is is workshop. The place where you sleep and

  560. wake and wash is what is the idle mind.

  561. So if you allow your mind to be idle, the devil will occupy it.

  562. Hello, Jesus said you cast out a devil, OK, you don't do anything

  563. about it. He said that demo we go OK and

  564. then come back to come and see the place occupy Africans and my

  565. time is why it is vacant. It will now go back again and

  566. invite several other more terrible demon than he said to

  567. come and occupy. Make the place the headquarter,

  568. so that the hand of that person will be worse than the

  569. beginning. Hydra Ness is dangerous.

  570. Hydra Ness of the mind is what is dangerous.

  571. You are just hello, OK, You are not engaging with the word of

  572. God. You are not talking to somebody.

  573. You are, you know you are just I do OK.

  574. Before you know what is happening, the devil will come

  575. and sponsor all manners of evil thought into your mind,

  576. including suicidal thoughts. If you are, if you and I do

  577. mine, you are not too far from depression.

  578. Am I talking to somebody? And that's why you more give

  579. your heart the word of God to meditate on regularly.

  580. Give your mind the word of God to meditate on what regularly?

  581. This book of the law must not depart from your mouth.

  582. You say. You read it, you study it, you

  583. meditate on it. Don't give it a space day and

  584. night, but you here you are, days and weeks, every month and

  585. years. You don't give attention to the

  586. word of God. You don't challenge your mind

  587. with critical thinking, positive thinking, positive aspiration,

  588. where we therefore where we therefore have a passion for

  589. impact. So in addition to the

  590. sanctification or the renewal of your mind for only living, your

  591. mind must be possibly engaged and you must keep it proactively

  592. alert for positive thinking to generate passionate, passionate

  593. action. It is where you keep it

  594. proactively alert for positive thinking, good meditation that

  595. you are able to generate passionate action.

  596. So there must be passion in every man's heart to make

  597. positive impact. If you make positive impact,

  598. there must be passion in your heart, a passion pursuing

  599. purpose. So the mind is therefore the

  600. seat of passion. The mind is what the seat of

  601. passion. Arise on your feet and raise

  602. your hands to the Lord and say, Holy Spirit, I want to hear you

  603. say it loud. I want to hear the man.

  604. I want to hear the women, mothers in particular.

  605. I want to hear the daughters in the house.

  606. I want to hear the young man, Holy Spirit, baptize my mind

  607. with right passion, with right pursuit.

  608. We have began to pray it in the name of Jesus.

  609. Every food that has occupied your mind.

  610. Eject them now. Eject them now.

  611. Eject them now. Seta no parking.

  612. My mind is not the bedroom of the devil.

  613. Holy Ghost infrared my heart. Holy Ghost infrared my heart.
