Discipleship Rev Edward Agyekum Kufuor 29th June 2025

Oh, come on, church, keep God some praise. He's worthy.

I don't know about you, but I can just look

back even twenty four hours ago.

He's worthy.

Some woke up this morning and they're already in the mortuary.

They didn't know that that was gonna be their last breath.

But you are.

Standing here with his breath in your lungs. He's worthy.

Come on, give him some praise.

Thank you a X year.

Come on, if you're gonna do it, do it well.

Don't look at me. Think about what he has done

for you. I know what he has done for me.

I don't need you to tell me. I look at

me a few years ago, and now look at me?

Now? Who what kind of God is this? On a

fast track to hell?

But look, you have many more qualified, many more worthy

according to His word, who have been abiding and staying

with it.

And I was looking the other way.

But for his grace and mercy, he's worthy. Let us

pray time as far as spend. Father, God, we thank

you for your spirit. Hallelujah be or to your name

for everyone under the sound of my voice. You have

a purpose. That's why we're still here, and for that

we thank you. For counting us among your own, for

allowing us to see another day. Not because we've been

so good, not because we've followed all your rules, not

because but because of your grace and mercy, because you

are faithful. Thank you for being faithful to us, even

when we are not faithful to you, even when we're

not faithful to ourselves, you remain faithful, and for that

we're grateful. Not God, let your spirit come, bring illumination,

bring wisdom, bring understanding, bring revelation, so your people will

be empowered for whatever you have for them to do.

Bless each and everyone. Prepare hearts and minds to receive you,

so that your word will go forth with power and

accomplish whatever it is that you have assigned In the

mighty name of Jesus the Christ. We pray, Amen, we

may take your seats. So we've been talking for about

a month and now about discipleship. Being a convert when

you first hear the word, receiving it gladly, opening up

your hearts, and being convicted by the word and by

the Spirit of God, and then coming forward to declare

your stance, to proclaim, to make it known deceptin Jesus

the Christ. And I've told you there are only two

sides to be on. Either you're gathering with him for

his kingdom or you're scattering. Theres no middle ground. You're

either with him, and if you've chosen not to be,

then you are by default with the devil. And whoever

you choose to follow, there'll be evidence, because if you're

a disciple, you take on his values, his characters, his principles.

You start to look like him physically, and then you

look like him spiritually. You start to submit yourself, you commit,

you subdue yourself. You're fasting your pray, you're giving supplication,

making intercession. You're receiving the training, the teaching, and the

doctrine so that you can be an effective disciple to

go out there and to do the assignment, which is

the commission of going out evangelizing, preaching, teaching, telling others.

All you need to do is to obey and be available.

That's all he requires of you. You're not the one

saving them. You can't even save yourself. One minute you

could be on the straight and now the very next

minute dantingfa. But it's by his spirit who guides you,

who orders your footsteps, who gives you advanced knowledge, see

the benefits of the Holy Spirit. My brother was testifying

and said he listened to the prompting when you open

up and you receive, will prompt you. But when you

decide not to go with what he's told you, he's

not going to force you.

The Holy Spirit, I would say, is that he is

a gentleman. He won't force you. He'll let you go

your way. But you can be sure that all that's

ahead of you is frustration.

When you do not heed the voice of God, frustration,

you subject yourself to oppression, to harassment, demonic concentration, because

that's all the devil.

Came to do.

He came back for to steal, kill and destroy. You

get frustrated, you get shaken, and if you're not careful

in your trials and tribulations by your own mouth, you

will blaspheme, and that is a curse onto you. You

speak contrary to the word, and your frustration when you're

supposed to be speaking according to the word, and that

leads you into certain areas. Are said it many times,

life and death is in the power of the tone.

You shall decree a thing and it shall be established

unto you. Why because you're made in his image and likeness.

He does not have a flesh body, He's not operating

in a meat suit.

He doesn't have to exist in this realm. You do.

And so you have those things, the flesh, and then

you have your intellect, your emotions that help you to

maintain contacts to commune in this realm. But you're really

not of that. Your spirit first. That's why your spirit communes, communicates,

relates with and too, the spirit of God. He doesn't

have anything to do with your flesh. He really doesn't

have anything to do with your emotions. He doesn't care

for your emotions because your emotions will make you feel

like I want to do it today and I don't

want to do it tomorrow. But your spirit is a

spirit He breathed in you. So the divine order is

spirit first, and that spirit now dictates the way for

the soul and the body. But we have it the

other way around. Most that what the flesh, this dictates

is what we want to do. When noma pet chilling.

The body doesn't like discomfort. It likes to continue the

way it does, and that's what leads us into trouble.

We also talked about prayer being the first Apostolic instruction,

not just for pastors, not for church members or church leaders, for.

All disciples and each and everyone here is a disciple.

When you heard the word, for those of us who

are in Christ, the word convicted you. You convert it,

and then you subject it yourself to the teaching, the

training which is ongoing, and you're abiding, you're remaining committed, consistent.

For this thing to work, you have to do it continuously.

You don't just come and do it on Sunday. Shut

the book and don't go to live your life the

way you want it, the way your flesh dictates. Discipleship

is continuous. It's a working process. It's dynamic, not static.

You don't do it once and be done with it.

You continue in it. He said that you abide, you

remain obedient to him, Jesus Christ, and to his word.

And he says, renew your mind daily. That's what the

scripture says. Why because your mind, your emotions, your intellect

your challenged daily. Sometimes the devil doesn't have to attack you.

He just has to suggest something to your mind and

then let you destroy yourself. You know this exam you're

going to feel.

I didn't study.

Oh God, this one, I'm going to fail. He causes

you by your own mind. He will trip you with

your own mouth. You said, you fail, you fail. The

doctor said, give me a diagnosis. He said, I'm going

to die. There's nothing. But he told you by his

stripes you're healed. You have believed upon him. His body

was pierced so that you be made home. He was

whipped last, and all of that for you. His body

was broken. The doctor knows what he's talking from the book,

But all about there's a doctor of doctors. The doctor,

you know, has a doctor who created him, and all

that he knows cannot confine that attributes the characteristics of

the doctor who made him and made you two. But

we don't know because for those of you who are

here on Friday night, we talked about the antidote. See,

whatever you encounter in life, there is an antidote in

your walk.

As a disciple.

You're going to encounter many things, as the disciples of

Christ did. There were places where they went, where they

went to receive people stone them. Some were cooked in

the park, some were kills and were crucified upside down.

But in all of this they stood by their conviction.

We are fortunate we're not being persecuted in some areas

we are. They're Christians being persecuted even today, and we're

not being mattered that they were. They're not being killed

for their beliefs. All he's telling you to do is

just avail yourself, obey, stay committed, deny yourself, pray without seizing,

have a burden for souls as Christ did so much

so that he gave his life. If you're taking on

his characteristics, then you must look like him in every way.

Don't just look like what are you a Christian? And

then they look at your life and say side I.

Christian.

The way you present yourself with all your I can

see yourself forgets from the headline of your skit.

What are you portraying? Brothers? Bes are hanging.

Over you yo yo was uh or belt? Nobody wants

to see your underwear? Hello, be decent present? Well, you

have to know who you're representing. MM gave the example.

Although those ambassadors you see in those red plates CB

called diplomatic. They represent other sovereign nations in your nation.

But I dare you to enter their embassy and say,

look this, I'm Ghania, and you're in my country, so

see what will happen to you? Because once you enter

that space, though you are in Ghana, geographically, that space belongs.

To their nation.

They're a country within a country, and they represent the

nation that sent them.

So they do not live by the laws of Ghana.

In fact, even when they have accidents, they cannot be prosecuted.

They have diplomatic immunity.

You represent Heaven, but you are subject to all the

things of earth. Succumb to it, allow it, accept it.

Why because you do not know what you're entitled to

a representative of Heaven as an ambassador of the Kingdom

of God. Which of those embassies has the kind of

power that you have and you don't know it, So

you don't execute, you don't exercise. And then you have

a spirit to guide you. You can speak to situations

because you now have understanding illumination, but you don't use it.

You won't even open the book. Another trick of the enemy.

How'll just tell you are not grown. Because once you

know who you are, you start. Your identity is in

the Bible.

Who you are.

If you want to know who you really are, it's

in the Bible. That's why you derive your actual identity.

It's not the identity that people give you. All of

us here have a past. If I tell you some

of my staff min shay gear, you run, but you

converse and you become.

A new man. That's what the scripture says. The old

things are what passed.

Away, and you take on the values, the principles, the

characteristics of the one that you say you believe in.

You say it is your testimony. Some people out there

will never open the Bible. It will just watch you

the Christian. It will watch what you do, what you say,

how you behave, and they'll decide that's Christianity. Then I'm

good Or by myself, I could do worse all by myself,

I don't need your help. If you the Christian, the

follower of Christ, if this is what you're exhibiting, then

I don't need to know your Christ. You are the

Bible that will either lead people into the kingdom or

will drive them away, repel them away from the kingdom.

So as a disciple, you must remember that and be

committed to it. But how about all your power comes

from prayer. You pray, you get empowered by His spirit.

If you cannot, will not do, not want to pray,

then you will not receive what you need, what is

necessary from the Holy Spirit for a successful discipleship, successful

walk with Him. Without the guidance and inspiration of the

Holy Spirit, this church will not grow. And that is

why he has given us a blueprint for the rapid

growth of the church. And we talked about it that

the church will grow exponentially through that unit called cells.

Next cells, that's what we call them here. It is

the smallest unit of members of the same church, same church.

That is the key.

So, members of Next Generation Church, if we each go

out into our communities and just take a minute to.

Talk to someone, are you afraid of people?

When you see someone you like, you do everything you

can do within your human power to get their attention.

You dress different, you walk different, you talk different. Rather,

you even go to the gym so you can gi

your so you also get the head done. And hell,

but flatter your eyes and tell me you do anything

you need to do to get your attention.

How come you won't go to that extent.

Out of the burden that you're supposed to have as

the follower of Christ for souls? How come you want

to employ all those tricks, all those characteristics, all those

isms to attract the soul. You will come week after

week alone, which your safe, sanctify it self, set in

your place, and never talk to anyone, never care if

they're going to hell or what, because you you are

safing Manamdi also compelled with you. Watch them go right

to hell. But how about on the day of accountability,

the blood will be.

Required of you one on one with God. Papa. No day, Mama,

no day since that day, brother, nod friend.

No day to be you and God I gave you

chance of the chance after chance for you to talk

to your next door neighbor, the one who everybody's here.

It is it just a minute.

You avail yourself. That's all.

God wants, your availability and your obedience as what he says. Abide,

obey and avail yourself. Obey his word, walk with it.

Avail yourself to the teaching, to the training, and you'll

be empowered. All you need to do is open up

your mouth and speak. The Holy Spirit will.

Compel them, convict them. You just open up your mouth

and plant that. See it, Jesus loves you. The church

I used to attend in America.

The bishop boys say, we would come to church and

you know, everybody in looking good. He said that somebody

sitting next to you who might be thinking of going

home to commit suicide, but you don't know because they

dress a certain way, they look a certain way.

You think they're fine, trying to who you're greens in

whom you're blue.

They're dying inside thinking nobody cares about me, So why

am I even alive? Let me go home and kill myself.

But just a minute to say, oh, hello, how are.

You doing today? How are you feeling? Price Jesus loves you.

And you think, oh, somebody took a minute, really.

So somebody cares. I don't have to.

Because that is the other thing. When people are disconnected,

they become isolated. Isolation leads to death. When you take

a tree, cut off the branch, it may look green

and a lie for a minute, but give it a

few days come back, it's wilting, turning, brown, shriveling because

it's disconnected from the source. So if you see certain

people in church and then suddenly they go take the

time half the burden, follow up, Hey I didn't see

you churchday, what's up?

Just that one call.

Could be the difference between life and death for that person,

just that act of discipleship, because one of the things

that is required to show love one for another, love

and care. That is the reason why the cells exist

because in the smaller groups we can come together, communicate, relate,

pray together, share the Bible together, express love and care

one for another.

Everything can go to Papa.

Papa is one person, and if you have five thousand

members in the church, Papa can't see all five thousand people.

That's why you have leaders, pastor shepherds. That's why he's

calling all of us. Because when all of us come

together and operating these small small groups in our communities,

in our homes, in our workplaces, in our hangouts, listen,

God is not saying isolate yourself.

That's counterproductive.

In fact, in the scripture process, you have to go

be among them. You have to go.

Paul went there to what was it him? What was

his name? One of us.

They went a whole year learn the people's customs, ate

what they ate, learn their language, learn their traditions. Because

when they see you as one of them, they can

relate to you. Then they're open to you, and that

you can share your christ. But if you come in

there and you're like, and praise.

The Lord your little dirty today.

So if you stand there, don't come close. Let me

tell you about Jesus. But Jesus, do you have you

heard about soap? Now looking at it, you're like, Oh,

you want to come and tell me about your Jesus.

Win me to your church. But you cannot. You can't

even see my plight. You don't have enough love to say. Oh,

you know what, Come, I have something I can share

with you. Maybe I have some clues.

That I can hear. You're hungry, Here has some food. Listen.

When the person is satisfied, whether physically, spiritually, emotionally, they

naturally open up. You can't preach to somebody when you're hungrier.

They don't hear nothing.

You're not going to look at it that I'm gonna

cop be a diminu. You have to be practical in

your discipleship.

You gather, you eat, you share the word, You show

love one to another, but you exercise some self control.

I know some of the places and some of the

things that are pleasant, but one of the fruits of

the spirit is self control. Maybe y'all do a Nevaca.

They may look dirty, but you don't have to say

you're dirty. You have a nice way, diplomatic way, mister ambassador,

Madam ambassador. Yes, that's why they're called excellencies. They're excellent

in their representation. Are you excellent in re presenting Christ?

Are you excellent? Be true to yourself?

Hm?

Excellent in your relationships? How you relate to people? Are

you up there and there?

Are here?

Are you feel I'm a prophet, I'm a I'm a

I'm a pastor, I'm a shepherd, I'm a deacon.

So yeah, praise the Lord, hallelujah.

If you want to come, come, come close the lords

to hallelujah. Once upon a time you were, but somebody

took the time to tell you.

So.

When we do not heed the voice of the Spirit,

the Holy Spirit, we do not heed this counsel is wisdom.

We face frustration, decline, and eventually death because you're disconnected

from your source. You cannot be disconnected from the source

and expect to survive. This fact applies not just to

the church or ministry. It applies to every area of

your life. Read Revelations chapter three, Versus one through three.

Revelations three one through three, and unto the Angel of

the Church of sardis right. These things saith heat that

have the seven spirits of God and the seven stars.

I know thy works that thou hast a name, that

thou hast that livest and are dead. You can have

a big church, and if that spirit of God is

not there, it is a dead church. Though you may

see people that spirit does not dwell there. You can

have that big name and that church will be dead.

God will have nothing to do with it. You are

just following form and fashion. People come in and put

on the front. They don't care for souls. They will

come in every Sunday and go out and shut the book,

go home and live their lives and come back next Sunday.

Not once even in church see somebody the whole year.

They'll walk right past you. I see this person.

Everything, not even.

Or you see someone in the hell come to talk

to I was gonna got me. We were all made

in this image and his likeness. What you do to

the least of us, you do to him where you

can't descend to someone. You look down your nose because

you think you're better. Let God play your life story.

Let God put your picture, your life on the screen.

Let us see what you've done, where you came from

before His grace and mercy. Let us see the things

that you've done, and I mean you might still even

continue to do secretly, because we are all a work

in process. No one here is perfect, even me. Mean,

do I get my shaky call a nature share? Because

for those of us who are put in this position,

you must first and foremost, you first before anybody.

So I have my flaws, but He is.

Working on us daily. That's why you need to renew

your mind daily. Take on the new Man, to pick

up your cross and follow him. Sacrifice, be committed daily.

Because while you're doing that and you're staying consistent, someone's watching.

You know, it's not telling people what to do. Don't

do just what I say, but do what I do.

Watch people watch you, and most of the time they'll

watch what you do. They'll be moved at what you

do first before what you say. Because you can talk

all kinds of stuff, but can you walk it? Can

you walk your talk? I'm a Christian? Can you walk Christianity?

Can you walk the discipleship? Can you show me in

your actions and in these times as we live. We

have to be like the sons of Isaca. You must

know the signs and times. Time is winding up, time

is winding up. People say, oh, we've had it all

the time. The world is coming to it and in

DJs that is coming. To listen, how about this, you're

looking for the grand scale of the day that armageddon,

the day he comes, then all of us are taking up.

How about your end of the world may come sooner

than my end of the world.

The day he calls you home.

That's the end of the life as you know it

on this in this realm, on this earth.

Your end of the world has come.

But the question is where you're going after here? And

if you care enough about your soul, So you've committed,

you've changed, you've converted, You are following him and you're

becoming a disciple, and he wants you to have the

same burden for souls.

How come you're not going off to the other.

Persons so willingly letting them nipper woode. It become so decessitized,

so disconnected, so cold, that you can see the person.

Even in the church while you're saved.

You can see them having problems, and you can't even

offer a word of encouragement. Encourage each other in the

word iron. Sharpen with iron, but your iron is dull

to bed the sharpen on the sharpen your iron sharpen

your spirit. How prayer, interceding, fasting, taking the doctrine, the training,

and then exercising the commission. You may get to heaven,

You may get your crown, but will there be any

stars in your crown because the souls that you lead

to Christ.

If the Bible is lying, then I'm lying.

Some of us will just have a band, may have

a piece of a band, and maybe I'll go and nayamama,

because the only work this.

Much the day is when you felt like working. He's

just here. But some will have crowns.

Loaded with stars and jewels because what they had burden

for souls. They followed the Christ, not just in word,

but indeed they were true Christians, true disciples. You see

the sons of Physica. They had the ability to discern

the times. You see that isakah. Anointing is unique. It

gives you an understanding of the times, the seasons, to

influence and to lead, to establish a great dynasty.

You're establishing.

You should be all about establishing the great dynasty, great

Kingdom of God. So you pray for discernment. God give

me that anointing of the sons of Isaca. They anointing

to dessern Even if you're not your state, without any anointing,

cre you can look at somebody and say something is wrong.

You can look at your countenance. There's a measure of

discernment in everyone. But are you willing to sharpen it

as a disciple where it really matters to be used

in the kingdom. Yeah, some your intuition make grammar deserve it.

The Holy Spirit God gave you. Something told me something who.

See I was going and something said, turn around, Oh Jesus,

hey something kakai. Something told me that as a believer,

I you should even used that something something, what? Something who?

You can't even identify. You can't put your finger. This

something that I'm feeling is voice that I'm hearing.

Today.

The concept of understanding the times is it's even more

important today. You hear wars, rumors of wars Israel Iran

throwing bombs, or gay say is far away. You don't

know that guys is in the hydrogen bomb They spread

through there you'll be sitting here and then.

You think it's in Iran.

In Israel, the wind blows, the north wind, the east,

in the south wind, it blows, doesn't it sooner or later?

The chemicals in that bomble, what spreading the atmosphere. Do

you live in under the atmosphere or you live in

somewhere in space. Don't think that we're all interrelated. They're fighting.

The Bible said that he was, and rumors of world,

pray for peace. Be concerned for souls, those people who

got hit by the woman, the women and children. You're

in your house. That was a boom that'said open your

eye in heaven judgment. And you didn't know him, You

didn't hear the word. Nobody took the time to go.

Then hell. But you're sitting here with your yourself. It's

not in my gut. I don't have anything to do

with the rund in Israel. So if they are fighting with.

A soul is a soul, and through our cell system,

we must contact, we must minister to, we must evangelize,

we must submit to the training.

So our next sells as it pertains to next generation church.

You see, he said, if you do this, you can't

find any other blueprints anywhere to grow the church. That's

God's ultimate to expand his kingdom through you. You the

one who said you believe in him. That is the

whole point. In one day he added three thousand souls

three thousand just because they followed the blueprint. Then another

day five thousand. Then the next time was a multitude.

The church grew by leaps and bounds, not on a

one to one linear. You brought to an YBr to

next week, we had double. The next way, you bring

what we bring our next week, we had double. No,

thirty sixty hundred, one thousandfold. Time is short, Lord, teach

me to number my days. You're going to give an

account sometime to the one who sent you here.

What did you do with the time. Stewardship, You have

to be strong and alert in the Lord, like the

sons of Physica.

Don't be influenced and manipulated by the media on the

phone all the time. Lady's got him TikTok and the

power that's to propaty.

Everybody.

All of that stuff vanity. It doesn't mean don't present well,

don't focus your time on that. Just do the needful. Yes,

your own coming. Now go what is it you think

God is gonna say? Okay, you look the best, so

enter into your rest. Shaddy don't want come with you.

You look good. March into hell. It's a good thing God.

As God calls me, I'll be like, hey, yeah, hey, Paul,

propose I did you say that?

Free me? Leave your potomato? Do you do what? Blessing?

I'm good to cashtag straight.

We are not conscious of these things. We're wasting time.

And He's given us this blueprint by which the church

can grow. That is his ultimate. If there's one thing

that he wants from you, it's for you to follow

this blueprint to win the souls for his kingdom. He

wants his churches filled up. He wants the churches to grow.

Ezekiel Chapter thirty six, thirty seven and thirty eight. Ezekiel

thirty six, thirty seven and thirty eight. Then the heathen

that left round about, you shall know that I the

Lord built, built the ruined places, and plant that that

was desolate.

I the Lord have spoken it, and I will do it.

That saith the Lord God.

I will yet for this be inquired off by the

House of Israel to do it for them. I will

increase them with men like a flock in Israel. When

they have their feasts, a feast of Passover, the feast

of that, all the different feasts, they would all converge,

and it was like a flock of people just they

all suddenly descended.

On the nation. God is saying, when we follow this,

this is what He's going to do.

He will do it if you ask it of him,

if you avail yourself, because that's what he wants you

to do. Have the heart for souls, that you will

take the time to minister to them so that the

church will grow. Luke fourteen and twenty three. Luke was enough,

and associate if you will. He accompanied Paul, and the

Lord said, unto the servant, go go out into the

highways and hedges and compel them to come in, that

my house may be failed.

The heart of God is for souls.

Fastimy two and four A possor, Paul right, who will

have all men to be saved?

Not some men. God wants all men to be saved

and to come into the knowledge of the Truth. Who

is the Truth? Who Truth is the person? I am

the way? Who is that?

Okay, so you will know the truth and it will

what so you will know Christ, Jesus Christ, and he

would get to know him. You say you're a Christian,

your follower, Let it be evident. It will be evident.

The more you stay in touch with Him, the more

you become you transform, You morph into him, You take

on his principles, his values. You look like him physically

and spiritually. When the anointing is on you, there's a

price to pay. It's called commitments, called sacrifice. The anointing

is on you. You can enter a place, any place,

and everybody's not Who is that?

Do you know him? Anything about him? The anointing He

will cause your life to shine? What for to attract?

The anointing attracts. He's giving you all the tools, all

the weapons that you need, so that you can attract.

Watch what you attract them, because when you attract, you're

doing here has an attract. For attraction's sake, you have

to minister to them, evangelize them, pray for them, pray

with them, show them love. So what our cells to

sell is the smallest group meeting made up of members

of the particular church of the same church. It is

not a general Christian fellowship. Where you go to your

area and you call others saved people from other churches

and you get together.

That's a Christian fellowship.

They already say, if they already belong to somebody's church,

go to the unchurched, be unsaved. Yes, if four of

you belong here and four of you in your neighborhood,

and then you go and evangelize to those who don't belong,

those who are not who don't know your christ so

you can win them. That's what the purpose of the

cell is. The purpose is to create an environment for

fellowship among members, Bible studies, for expression of love and

care among members, and also to evangelize to win souls,

which will grow the church. Bottom line, the church must grow.

Attention them and say, the church must grow. If we

come every Sunday just four hundred of us, four hundred

of us for hundred something is wrong. We're failing. You're

not doing what is required of us under the commission.

You don't talk to anyone, you don't invite anyone.

You don't you come and get filled up, get to

a top up.

Next way you come back, dadidia on me timeless fast bed.

But we have to know that this is our assignment,

and this is what is required of us. By the way,

the church, the cell, it is not an individual church

on his own. Or you go to your neighborhoods and

you start your cell. Don't start thinking that you have

the church, your own church. It is a ministry of

the mother Church. So the next else, when you go

out there and we form the next house, don't go

up there. And even if you have a calling to

be yourself and that's not your church, don't want to

say my congregation, my flock and your o dear we are.

Yeah, that's Luciferian.

When you start thinking individualistically, big grammar, I tell me

whom I tell.

When some.

Luciferian of lucifer Christian of Christ Luciferian certain characteristics, you

can look at the president and see.

Where they derive those characteristics.

The offspring must bear some resemblance to the progenitor. Who

you are, Yami bye, I was someone saying on me

were no one kicker. The things you say and the things.

You do will show whose you are, who you belong to.

So we pray. We first we receive training.

Teaching, doctrine, and then we go out and win souls

so that the church will grow. And the vehicle by

which we do this is the next cell. We must

all endeavor. So we've been asking for your information and

so that we can zone out the city so we know, okay,

you live in Testa, know this one. Listen and begun.

It's close another. We can have a cell of those

of you who belong the next gen. You can meet

maybe four or five of you. When you meet, you

share the wad, you pray together, you get empowered, you

get encouragement, you sharpen each other. Then you go out

and you evangelize, and then you bring them in. You

win four, they win six, they win ten, they win two.

When we come back, it won't be a one to one.

It'll be one to many instead of just grow. If

we're all brought one soul, next week will be eight generate.

But if we bring multiples, next time we come we

could be six eight thousand, thousand and two.

That's how the church will grow.

And then we bring them in and we repeat. Repetition

is the key thing. Repetition. Repetition, as we repeat it

and we stay consistent, that is what brings the growth. Repetition,

repeat it, stay consistent to it, stay committed to it,

and God will do it. It is not by your strength,

It is not by anything that you do, except for

being obedient and availing yourself abiding. Turn to your numbers

and say, abie, it's just a simple abide.

If this is a waste of your time, then you

might as well not have converted.

You should have just stayed your old man, do the

things that you used to do, the same characteristics, the

same mannerisms, the same behaviors. And yeah, yeah, but in

the end, see that's what your area. You know, In

the end, it always begins with conversion. To become a convert,

and then to follow that means to say committed, to

deny yourself, to take up your cross daily.

Because change is a hard thing to do. Change is

the hardest.

Thing for anyone to do, because you get set in

your ways, you're used to doing certain things a certain way,

and then when you're compelled to change or you're required

to change, it's hard. Scientists say if you do something

continuously for twenty one days, it becomes a habit. So

if you pray, fast, offers applications twenty one days, it

becomes a habit. Then it takes on its own life,

and then it starts to manifest.

It starts to show.

If you lie for twenty one days, you get a habit.

Every time you open your mind, you tell her lie.

Very soon when people see coming on, no madroom, you know,

we know everything she's gonna see is a lie. She's

just okay. Why it starts to manifest. It starts seeing you,

and they see the liar coming. It'll label you because

you've done it consistently.

The same thing.

Applies on the other side. You pray, you covert the anointing,

You seek his face. You enter a place and people

are like, now you a pastor. He does something about him.

You talk to people, and you reach them and touches

the Sultan. Because what's coming out of your mouth the spirit,

the essence of God, what he breathed into you in

Genesis one. You are made in his image and his lightness.

He is not flesh, and he's not emotion. He has

nothing to do with the emotions.

First and foremost, you're a spirit being having a human experience.

You're not a human being.

Have verny spiritual experience. Get it right, tell you no,

but don't get it twisted. You are spirit being first,

having a human experience. You're sojourning here, but you're going

back at the appointed time to where you came from.

But where you go you must give a count of

your time here. So for those of you here.

Under the sound of my voice, this is what we're

learning here. We're all learning to be disciples. And guess

what the more you say committed those old things, the

old man falls off, Your little attitude problem falls off,

your little anger problem falls off.

I was telling them on Friday night.

In theology, anything that has a name has a spirit

operating behind it. We dealt with fear, someone else, pain

and what brokenness, three of the many spirits. And the

enemy will use those things. So spirit, the spirit of fear,

the spirit of pain. Pain is dangerous, pain of rejection,

pain of failure. It opens the door. It is a trigger,

and when it opens the door, it will bring in

the spirit of heaviness. And that one y you kushu.

You feel like you don't belong, you start isolating, and

as you isolate, you decline, You decline long enough you die.

So see how the enemy will use those weapons. But

the antidosis in the word. The antidote is in the word.

Every circumstance. Every life issue that you encounter is in

the word. The solution, the antidote.

Is in the word. But you won't study the word.

You don't have time.

You want to go to the mall and go to you.

It's nice and your bad name, why I wuti? Function

will come with marriage.

And then how many few knows have you been to?

You can dull them up nicely, But when you speak

to them, do they respond? But let the Lord speak

to your soul, speak to your spirit.

Let the Holy Spirit infuse you with power. And when

you open up your mouth, you'll see people coming alive.

But the spirit speaking, they're getting unction, they're getting quickened.

That's the power you have. So when he says life

and death is in the power of the tongue, it

means it. So if you're here, it begins with conversion.

You heard the word. If you I'm not sure that

you belong on the side of Jesus Christ, I need

you to come today. I'm a little.

So I'm not going to spend a lot of time

if you're not sure that you belong in the coup

of Jesus Christ. And it becomes right now. It's going

to take you back with him.

It's free.

You can't dress nice to get you can't talgnize to

get it, you can't do any work to get it.

He has given it freely because he has a burden

for sports. He wants everybody to come to the knowledge

of truth in repentance, repent, give your life to Christ.

Repent means to turn away from people say make a

three sixty. No, it's not three sixty will bring you

right back where you used to be.

It's one eighty.

Turn your back to it. Repent, turn your back on

the things that you used to do. Allow Jesus to

show you a better way. Comes give yourself away so

he can use you. You are made for his pleasure.

You are made for his glory. So how about you

fulfill that? Because when you have your agenda here, when

you get up there, he also show you his agenda.

He's a fair god, he's a just god. Even while

you're here, he allows you some.

What is the word I'm looking at, some liberties, not

as long as you don't lose focus of the assignment,

understand your purpose why you're here. He allows you to

have relationships, to meet people, He allows you to have

different experiences.

But at the core, at the core of you, you

have to know who you are. You have to know

who you are and your identity.

What your purpose is, the things that you want in life,

the destiny that you want to achieve, all the good

things that you desire. Where do you think comes from?

Every good and perfect gift comes to where I wish

that My mom thinks that you and being good help

He wants you to have good things. Your father is

a king, you are prince and a princess. You're a

royal priestdood. He doesn't want you to come here looking

jack the because you represent him. If the ambassador of

America USA comes over here and looking like now, they

come in here and the anser, you know, okay, this

person has authority. They walk with a certain confidence. You

are an ambassador of Heaven, your excellency, You're excellent at

what you do, excellent, excellent of representing your od?

Are you.

So? Then? Why aren't you walking for confidence? Talking being

about the business of the sovereign Kingdom of Heaven that

sent you here. The ambassadors are representing their sovereign nation

while you're here. You're supposed to dominate, have dominion like

they do. They enter your country and they become a

country within your country. You go to the embassy. You

have to follow their rules. You belong to the Kingdom

of Heaven representing God here. But on earth you're following

the rules of the earth when you are supposed to superimpose.

The rules of Heaven on earth.

Half dominion, authority, influence, power, discerning the times, so you

can lead that you.

Follow everywhere things. Lady are going here today? Is here?

I here as a prophet. Here you shall I a

man of God. Pray for me, he said, Come, I

want you relationship. Let us make man in our image.

He's a god of community or relationship.

Come on. The only way you to get its first

to give your life to Christ.

Give your to Christ, and he will order your footsteps

by his spirits, so you can have all these things.

Seek ye first, priorities, Get your tell your numbers, to

get your priorities in order. Seek He first. If you're

here today under the sound of my voice, seek He first,

the Kingdom of God. Come give your life to Him,

and then He will roll out. Before I formed you

in the womb, I knew you, I called you my name,

I sent you a bird. I sanctified you to be

a prophetizations He had already planned out your life before

he caused your parents to come and meet and birth

you to come and live that life. So there's nothing

about you he doesn't know. But he wants you, freely,

of your own free will, to give your life to him.

Seek Him first, and all the other things that you're

looking for. In one a thousand weeks you get all

the things that you desire. You'll give you, but seek

Him first. Anything that takes the place of God in

your life is an idol, and He hates idolatry. Come,

if you haven't given your life to Christ, now's your chance.

Time is fast spent.

Anyone. We can't keep doing this every Sunday. You hear it.

Every Sunday, you go, you go, you go. Someday you're

going to run out of time. On to each and

every man, there's a time that's appointed. You don't want

to wait. And people go on sit.

What that shock? And they see a picture of you.

Oh but she was at church.

Oh I hope she will say, did you talk to her?

Did you make sure? Did you ask them? They came

to change? But do you know what they're safe. Do

you know if they've accepted Christ. I want everybody to

turn to their neighbor. I'm not going to do this

alone today, to you do some work. Ask your neighbor.

Look them in there, and I said, have you accepted

Christ as your Lord and savior? Ask them and demand

an answer. They may not be your friend. You may

not know them by looking, say, because this is going

on record in heaven. It is going on record in

heaven when you get to having no play it for you.

On twenty ninth of June.

Our twelve seventeen, Reverend before ask you to ask the

presidents next to you, and you are like, did you

ask them? They may be going to hell, you don't

even know. But you're sitting right here under the same voice,

under the same word, under the same spirit, and don't

even know where they're going. Don't even care to ask.

The blood will be required of you. So if everybody

here is saved, I'm gonna ask you for the last time,

everybody here is saved.

Over here, I want to hear you.

Over You'll say you're sure that you're sure, that you're

sure over here, over here, over here. Make ever, your

mouth doesn't convince. Oh, bless the Lord, Bless the Lord.

We all may have come here for this one. The

scripter says, all of heaven rejoices, My brother, The angels

are rejoicing.

This is the best decision you ever made.

Yeah. I was packing the books thinking, everybody, say, God,

bless you for hearing the voice and for allowing yourself,

for receiving it with joy and allowing you to takes it.

Is there anybody else that has done it? Listen, Heaven

will be a witness, and all these people, all these souls,

be a witness that on this day you made a stance,

You made a declaration for Christ. Anybody else? Y'all saved

over here? Y'all saved over here? Are you ashamed or something?

Hey me, look I'm saved about I got so I go.

I don't know why you people think when you're saved,

you're supposed to. Are you all saved over here? Yes?

And accompanyment? Are you saved over here? Confidence? Are you

saved over here? I told you you'll better be saved.

If you're saying you all better be no, whoop, bur

that's one of y'all. Bless the Lord, Church, Give God

some praise, give God some praise for our brother, my brother.

What's your name, John, my father's name? Great mind, listen,

this is the best decision you ever made. You don't

worry about anybody in the listening. Each one of us

must work out our soul salvation. Were trembling. You came

alone to this world. Even twins, they come alone.

They don't know.

I come out at the same time, one after the other,

and the same way. You go back alone, and you

will face your God. But you are taking his tanks today,

letting everybody know. And the Bible says, if you believe

in your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus

Christ is the Son of God, that he came down

to early, suffered, died, and was buried, and rose on

the third day, you shall be saved. So I want

you to know today if all these witnesses, you're saved,

but you must save yourself.

So follow me in this word of prayer.

Say, Dear God, I believe that Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ

is your son, came to earth, suffered, died, was.

Buried, he rose, He rose, Oh, he rose on.

The third day and is seated at the right hand

of God making intercession for my soul. And so today

I believe according to your word that I am saved.

I am saved, I am saved. Thank you Jesus Church.

Give God some praise. Ad Rather, I want you to

go with the minister back. Then he'll give you some information.

Oh come on, give God some praise. You know it's

not easy to get up and come. He came alone.

Some of you are that you're not, but you didn't

come the God. I'm Mercy
